kingoflag: The face of a criminal. To think that not only is this monkey supposed to be an advocate of the law, but that people are actually supporting his criminal actions. He is hungry and was looking to be used. The only issue here is in his enthusiasm he committed fraud. Which as a lawyer, he is in bigger trouble. Shows he is incapable of thinking deeply. Not very intelligent at all. He is going to lose his license. The professions which require a license are not the professions for fraudulent characters to enter into. . The joke is on him 3 Likes |

Chei!!! see how this small boy take deal with all this sissies. Read more Ladies and Gentlemen, For over a decade now, Nigerians have entrusted their political fortunes largely in the hands of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN), All Nigerian People’s Party (ANPP), Congress for Progressive Change (CPC) and other politicians who have shown a resounding emptiness of character, clearly unfit for any kind of leadership. The PDP, ACN, ANPP,CPC etc has taken Nigeria on a journey to nowhere; taken our country on a political expedition without any road map or action plan. Since 1999, all we have to show for their political dominance is purposeless and rudderless leadership that has added little or no value to the lives and welfare of the average Nigerian. The collective achievements of these contraptions called PDP, ACN, and ANPP can best be likened to the dance of the penguins – one step forward, two steps backward – and the woes of our country continue to evolve from bad to worse. Overseas, our public image has hit an all time low, corruption has become a way of life for public officers, and not even the hitherto sacred judiciary is above board. The stench is polluting the society, hamstringing developmental efforts and discouraging any substantial foreign investment in the country. Government policies are made for personal, group or clique interests, with the implications that hitherto viable investments that thrived on our soils have closed shop and moved over to perceived weaker, poorer and smaller economies in the West African sub- region. We are totally a consumer society and no longer produce what we need to sustain ourselves. We import much more than we export. We are selling off our assets and taking on massive debts to sustain a standard of living we can no longer afford. Much in the same way we have policy deficits, our budgets are perennially in deficit, with our economy gradually showing irrefutable signs of recession. We do not have big thinkers running our states, but just good talkers who are largely bent on experimenting with their ignorance. The PDP, ACN, CPC, ANPP etc has remorselessly squandered the goodwill of Nigerians, ‘fiddling while the nation burns’. While infrastructure suffers in the states, with the economy of the states wound round monthly allocations and diverted council funds, the governors of the PDP shuttle across the globe in private jets that further diminish the resources of their states, leaving the people to bear the brunt. As a matter of urgent national importance, we urge the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) to immediately commence investigation into the source of fund used to purchase the private jets by these public officers. Apart from Lagos, where Fashola has shown some aptitude for work, other ACN states are mere shadow states and ghost towns where their Chief Executives are just sounding off while still groping inthe dark, years after being elected into office. The ANPP and the CPC from inception had both remained experimental stocks serving the interests of their self-styled leaders and flag- bearers. We are all witnesses to the mockery of governance in Imo state and Anambra state under the APGA led government. While Imo state has repeatedly and brazenly voiced its utter disregard to the rule of law and due process, running the state like a personal state much the same way Anambra state, has been run for nearly eight years without elected council leadership thereby reducing the councils to a docile appendage of the state governments. If we should spare a thought for the merger comedy that has played out in our country recently, the merger is simply an amalgam of people that ‘MUST’rule; largely part of the same over- recycled crop of power-mongers that have plagued Nigeria with their abysmal misrule and maladministration. Within their pantheon, you have the human rights abusers, crass dictators, the private jet-setters who flew commercial before assumption of office; those with unfinished businesses at the Code of Conduct Bureau and those still standing trial for alleged scams in the FCT. Add their total disregard for internal democracy and due process to this mix and you get a picture of an alliance of political desperadoes that have become so used to the public till, they cannot imagine being out of office for one dispensation. They pay all the bills and call all the shots without the least consultation because in their own political ideology, the democratic process can be bought and sold. That is the profile of the merger godfathers and it tells the story of Nigeria’s political woes. The corruption in these parties often rub off on their legislators in the National Assembly, with clear reflection on the quality of legislation churned out from our hallowed chambers. For goodness sake why would a legislator demand fundfor constituency project? Funds that simply translate to ‘pocket money’ for these lawmakers. Our constitution provides that the job of our NASS members is strictly to make good laws and at no time did the constitution define them as building contractors to negotiate constituency projects. After all, there is agovernor in their various states that receives federal allocation for infrastructural development in the state. Against this backdrop, the APC calls for an urgent review of the salaries and allowances of the members of the National Assembly to conform to the present economic realities so they can better appreciate the economic plight of ordinary Nigerians. All the more, like the decadence of the political players we have called leaders for so long, there is no sector of the economy spared from this systemic rot; from the aviation to the maritime; from the security agencies to the regulatory agencies; from the legislature to the judiciary; our foreign policy is clearly undefined and citizen-support is non- existence. Sometimes, we wonder if the PDP government in the centre, the ACN in the Southwest, APGA in the Southeast, ANPP and CPC in the North are guided by any policy master plan whatsoever. Hence the steady devaluation of governance goes on unimpeded . So far, there is no sign of remedy in the horizon. It therefore makes expedient, the unveiling of a people’s alternative that understands the plight of the citizenry and has a work plan for intervention. A platform that would restore hope and rally the plundered states of Nigeria to a common goal of national rebirth. Nigeria needs a new political formation that would bear the torch and lead the nation out of the woods. From Lagos to Ogbomosho; from Ikot Ekpene to Abuja; from Sokoto to Kaduna and from Enugu to Owerri, for over four decades, it has been the same old story of sadistic and unconscionable recycling of the same political elements that have evidently run out of ideas on how to fix Nigeria. At best, they have created in themselves, individuals that place themselves way and above the country, while destroying institutions of state which are the core essence of government, upon which society thrives. These over-recycled forces are totally spent and without equivocation, Nigeria needs an infusion of fresh ideas, purpose-driven policies and a new generation of inspired leaders. Nigeria cannot keep doing the same thing and still expect change. We have to change the way we live and we can only achieve that by changing the way we are led. And to change the way we are led calls for a newpolitical order that is a total departure from the “meal tickets” of today we call political parties. We therefore seek to entrench a system that is centred on the people; to reclaim our crumbling institutions and failing nation; to give Nigerians reason to believe again. After years of planning and strategizing, having fulfilled all prescribed Administrative, Constitutional/Legal requirements for registration with full acknowledgements, it is with a sense responsibility that we unveil: THE APC: AFRICAN PEOPLE’S CONGRESS. Today, Nigerians now have a party they can be proud of. A party committed to rebuilding Nigeria. We of the APC team after our many years of meeting, negotiation, consultation etc present to you today the following evidences of our hard work and commitment to rebuild Nigeria, WE PROUDLY AND HAPPILY AFTER SUCESFUULY FILLING AND FULFILLING THE REQUIREMENTS FOR REGISTRATION AS STIPULATED IN THE NIGERIAN CONSTITUTION AND THE ELECTORAL ACT, WE UNVEIL THEHISTORIC APC PARTY TODAY AND PRESEN TO YOU ALL HERE AND NIGERIANS IN GENERAL:THE APC LOGO, THE APC FLAG, THE APC CONSTITUTION, THE APC MANIFESTO,THE APC SLOGAN,THE APC MEMBERSHIP CARD, THE APC NATIONAL OFFICERS,THE EVIDENCE OF APC FUFILLMENT FOR REGISTRATION AS A POLITICAL PARTY ETC. Our policy plans are cut and dried; purposeful and concise. The AFRICAN PEOPLE’S CONGRESS exist to build and safeguard a free, fair and open society, in which we seek to balance the fundamental values of liberty, equality and community, and in which no one shall be enslaved by poverty, ignorance or conformity. We champion the freedom, dignity and well- being of individuals, we acknowledge and respect their right to freedom of conscience and their right to develop their talents to the full. We aim to disperse power, to foster diversity and to nurture creativity. We believe that the role of the state is to enable all citizens toattain these ideals, to contribute fully to their communities and to take part in the decisions which affect their lives. We believe that people should be involved in running their communities. Assuch, we are determined to strengthen the democratic process and ensure that there is a just and representative system of government with effective Parliamentary institutions, freedom of information, decisions taken at the lowest practicable level and a fair voting system for all elections. We will at all times defend the right to speak, write, worship,associate and vote freely, and we will protect the rights of citizens to enjoy privacy in their own lives and homes. We believe that sovereignty rests with the people and that authority in a democracy derives from the people. We therefore acknowledge their right to determine theform of government best suited to their needs and commit ourselves to the promotion of a democratic federal framework within which as much power as feasible is exercised by the nation. We similarly commit ourselves to the promotion of a flourishing system of democratic local government in which decisions are taken and services delivered at the most local level which is viable. Our responsibility for justice and liberty cannot be confined by national boundaries; we are committed to fighting poverty, oppression, hunger, ignorance, disease and aggression wherever they occur and to promote the free movement of ideas, people, goods and services. Setting aside national sovereignty when necessary, we will work with other countries especially African countries and other World Powers towards an equitable and peaceful international order and a durable system of common security. Within the African community we affirm the values of federalism, democracy and integration and work for unity based on these principles. We will contribute to the process of peace and disarmament, the elimination of world poverty and the collective safeguarding of democracy by playing a full and constructive role in international organizations which share similar aims and objectives. These are the conditions of liberty and social justice which is the responsibility of each citizen and the dutyof the state to protect and enlarge....to be continued 5 Likes |

PapaBrowne: Is he not a Nigerian?? Doesnt he have the right to register a political party with the name African Peoples Congress. Buhari never plotted any coup in Nigeria. The supreme military council thought him the best candidate to run the govt after that coup, invited him and he dutifully accepted the offer and brought some sanity into the system. When are you pple going to cut the gentleman some slack? 'Coup plotter, terorist, fundamentalist'.., all these are concocted lies just to malign the image to the general and make the public aprehensive about him while ensuring the status quo of unbridled corruption and maladministration persists. But change is in the air and the day of reckoning is fast drawing close. Nothing is gonna stop a destiny whose time has come! God bless Nigeria. 2 Likes |

babapupa:I don't agree with your line of reasoning. Being a Nigerian does not give you the license to be a corrupt, dishonest and fraudulent person. Inasmuch as I'm not holding brief for that young lawyer, I know so many people who do not have any office of their own but make use of their friends or colleague's office for transacting business pending when they are financially ok to own their office. Is it now a crime to use a colleagues office for your legit business? That the lawyer used his friends office address to register African Peoples Congress (APC) for his "client" is not enough reason to label him "419" or "fraudulent". Though his phone conversation with the journalist was suspecious, as a lawyer he was probably trying to be cautious because the authenticity of the caller wasn't confirmed. As far as I'm concerned, the lawyer saw loopholes in our system and quickly took advantage of it. Buhari, Tunubu, Lai Mohammed and co should put on their thinking caps and stop crying like babies. The fact still remains that APC left their guard unprotected and PDP gave them a killer blow under the jaw. It is still PDP 1 : APC 0. The battle continues....... 3 Likes |

Blueboy0402: To start with, you said you are not holding brief for the con man, but you are making up your own ridiculous excuses for him and justifying his criminal activities for him. We don't know anything about the fake address and phone number and even the people at the address denied knowing this con man and his fraudulent activities, but you still managed to make up your own reason why he used his friend address. You are not only holding brief for him, you are even lying for him. Why, I don't know, maybe you are a fraudulent person like him so you can relate. You people keep saying he has every right to do this and that which is ok, but why do things fraudulently if you know you have the right to do anything and you believe you are doing the right thing as a Nigerian? Why lie? Why give fake address and number? Why the secrecy? This is supposed to be a clean and open process so why all the con game , secrecy and deception? Even if this is a real political party, why should we put our faith and hope in a fraudulent political party shrouded in lies, secrecy and deception? Are these not the crooked ways we are trying to move away from as a nation? I'm not oblivious to the fact that tribalism is responsible for the crooked rants by many of you, but I also believe that many of you are ignorant, mentally backward and corrupt for your own good, even what's good for the country doesn't mean anything to you, its all about your backward thinking ways and dangerous tribal ways and attitude.
