The Federal Airport Authority of Nigeria
(FAAN) shut down Gombe International
Airport yesterday ostensibly for repairs but
the opposition All Progressives Congress
(APC) said it was a deliberate act to stop
their leaders from landing at the airport.
The airport was closed down when a
delegation of APC leaders was airborne in
a chartered plane from Abuja to inaugurate
the party's interim leaders in Gombe
yesterday.
When the plane approached Gombe, the
pilot was advised to divert because the
tarmac was being mended.
The pilot turned and made for Bauchi
airport but it was after lengthy conversation
back and forth that the aircraft was
permitted to land in Bauchi.
The delegation then proceeded to Gombe
by road.
A former Minister of State for Power and
Steel, Malam Murtala Aliyu, who was on
board the plane, confirmed the incident to
Daily Trust last night.
He said their aircraft was airborne when
they were told they won't be allowed to
land in Gombe because of some repair
work.
But he said they found out that this was
done simply to sabotage the planned
inauguration of the APC executive in the
state.

The Joint Military Task Force (JTF)
yesterday in Rivers State arrested six
youths bearing seven AK47 rifles
around Ekporo Road on their way to
Ogu.
Among them was Daniel Ibito-Anga,
who parades himself and is known in
Ogu Bolo as Security Adviser/PA to
Senator George Sekibo (Rivers East
Senatorial zone) and Evans Bipi, the
Rivers State Assemblyman who was
recently stopped by a court from
parading himself as the Speaker of the
Assembly.
Others arrested gave their names as
Sunday Elisha, Uche Jenikachi,
Ibinabo Lawson, and Okechukwu
Okoro.
In addition to the rifles, the men had
146 rounds of 7.62mm Special life
ammunition and 10 life magazines
among others.
They were stopped on the basis of their
suspicious movement as they headed
for Ogu Bolo Local Government Area in
an off white Land Rover jeep with
registration number JJ441BZ.
Both Senator Sekibo and Evans Bibi
are from Ogu and have publicly
confessed to being extremely close
associates of Nigerian First Lady
Patience Jonathan, who hails from
nearby Okrika, and they all speak the
same Okrika dialect. Evans Bipi was a
domestic aide of Mrs. Jonathan before
he was elected into the Rivers State
House of Assembly in 2011, Sekibo,
who nurses gubernatorial ambitions,
hopes to ride into Government House
on the back of Mrs. Jonathan. They are
all publicly known to be fighting the
Rivers State governor, Rt. Hon.
Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi.

“It is not a matter of planning to take over,
that is what the rule of the House says, that the majority takes over the leadership of the House. We have no choice in the matter.
You cannot be the majority and play the
minority role,” Mr. Gbajabiamila said.
“Tambuwal will remain Speaker in all
circumstances. He was elected by the
whole House. Most of the APC members
are comfortable with him. I cannot speak for the deputy, but I will rather have a situation where he remains.”

Despite all the claims by President
Goodluck Jonathan and his men that a lot
is being done to improve power and other
critical infrastructure, the world’s richest
man, Bill Gates, has just released a
shocking fact that they are just lying and
deceiving Nigerians, as usual. Bill Gates
has assisted Jonathan on several issues,
so no one can claim that he is one of
Jonathan’s so called enemies.

Great. Keep this going.

We need to be kept updated on what our party is doing.

And if possible for those of us resident outside of Nigeria, is there a way APC can allow us to be officially registered as party members?

A replica of what is happening in PDP is also happening in Burkina Faso as we speak. 75 Members decamp from ruling party for same reason.
APC leading the way
Re: APC News by bappahman: 12:21pm On Jan 06, 2014
APC has
appointed a former Governor of Edo State,
Chief John Odigie Oyegun and former
Chairman of the defunct New PDP, Alhaji
Abubakar Kawu Baraje, to co-chair a high-
powered committee set up to resolve
internal crises rocking its chapters in
Adamawa, Kano and Sokoto States.
what “is happening in Adamawa,
Kano and Sokoto should be expected.
With the merger, political calculations and
equation are bound to be affected. With the
five governors coming over, these were
further affected.”
Mohammed said that there were instances
where three gubernatorial candidates
contesting on the platform of the defunct
Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN), All
Nigeria Peoples Party (ANPP) and
Congress for Progressive Change (CPC)
in 2011 are now together in the new APC
(Adamawa is a good example of that)
APC will not spare any effort to resolve the crises. The crises are normal. When the chances of political offices are contracted, naturally people will react. But we have set up a high-powered committee that will go
to all these states to resolve the crises.
Again, there is a lot of misunderstanding
and misplaced fear

Adamawa State Governor Murtala Nyako
