BarryX: Baba! A Fact is the Truth or the actual existence of something, as opposed to supposition of something; Reality; Let us not get sentimental about this , Lagos is cosmopolitan no doubt but from the prevailing definition and analysis so far reeled out. Abuja walloped Lagos maybe by a hat-trick or something. Abuja it is then and let us not forget to post this link whenever there's a project or an intellectual argument about Nigerian Most Cosmopolitan city because Nairalanders have done more justice to the topic than most Foreign journal or website could ever do .

Lagos provides a classical case for studying migrants and the consequences of internal migration. It is the most cosmopolitan city in West Africa with an estimated population of over 10 million persons inhabiting the metropolis alone (not the whole of Lagos State). Lagos is a melting pot and mini-Nigeria.

Did you bother to check that the chambers is patnership btw him and his friend who is a legal tenant at the address. Do you also think your media interrogation is the right tool for finding out who is a legal tenant in a place? Park well my guy, there is no case and no fraud either.

manmade: Nobody is" stealing" anybody's name here , remember that equity aids the diligent and not the indolent . If a party choose to be a noise maker and the other one is an action doer . Pls what wrong has the latter done?

The United States on Friday condemned Nigerian President Goodluck Jonathan’s pardon of former governor Diepreye Alamieyeseigha, his predecessor in Bayelsa state, who was convicted for money laundering in 2007, after admitting massive embezzlement of state funds.

The US spokesman chorused Nigerian critics of the move, describing it as a “setback” in the fight against corruption.

And State Department spokeswoman Victoria Nuland said Washington had warned the Nigerian government that it could have implications for US aid.

Obama: US deeply worried about the pardon

“The United States government was deeply disappointed over the recent pardons of corrupt officials by the Nigerian government,” Nuland said.

Asked about whether US aid to Nigeria could be at threat, she replied: “We have made clear to the Nigerians that this puts a question mark on the kinds of work that we’ve been trying to do with them.

“We’re continuing to look at what’s appropriate.”

In 2011, the US Agency for International Development spent some $230 million on aid programs in Nigeria, the bulk of which went towards supporting health programs and in particular preventing and treating HIV/AIDS.

Jonathan, who had served under Alamieyeseigha as Bayelsa’s deputy governor, pardoned him and seven others earlier this week, meaning the disgraced official could now run again for office.

Before his detention in Nigeria, Alamieyeseigha was arrested in Britain in 2005 on charges of laundering more than $3 million. But he fled back to Nigeria while on bail. He was re-arrested in Nigeria and detained for months, before he was convicted for money laundering.

Nigeria is seen by the world as one of the most graft-ridden nations, where powerful leaders implicated in massive corruption scandals often evade severe punishment.

Mr. Ikenga had also attempted to force the extension of the tenure of former chairman of INEC, Maurice Iwu, at a time Nigerians were unanimous in their call for the professor’s sack from the electoral body.

Mr. Ikenga had on April 2, 2010 led three ‘pro-democracy groups’ to the National Assembly to stage a rally seeking for tenure extension for Mr. Iwu.

The three groups, the Alliance for Defence of Democracy, National Youth Coalition for Progressive Transformation and the Northern Patriotic Forum went to the Assembly to request for extension for Mr. Iwu “to enable him to conduct the 2011 general elections”.

“Electoral process can only be consolidated where there is continuity in leadership,” Mr. Ikenga said in his address at the rally.

He argued that section 157 of the 1999 Constitution made provision for the re-appointment of the INEC chairman, “so why are people crying even when the chairman has two months to go,” he said.

The rent- a-crowd

One common feature Mr. Ikenga is known for is his ability to easily mobilise a crowd for a protest in the Nigerian capital.

People who know and have worked with the lawyer in the past allege that he is available to the highest bidder as a hatchet man; and sometimes goes to satellite towns in the Nigerian capital to rent the crowd he uses for his protests.

This time around, however, he’s moved beyond public protests to sponsoring what could turn to a be a major political upheaval in Nigeria; as the All Progressives Congress have insisted that they would not change name to accommodate the African Peoples Congress.

Ikenga does not like to be disturbed

When PREMIUM TIMES contacted Mr. Ikenga to confirm if he was behind the registration of the African Peoples Congress, he declined comment.

“Why is everybody calling me about this thing? Today is my girlfriend’s birthday and these calls from journalists is pissing her off,” he said before he cut off the line.

The PDP would also not respond to the reason one of its members sponsored the formation of a rival party or if he had the backing of the party to carry out the action.

The National Publicity Secretary of the PDP, Olisa Metuh, did not answer or return calls made to his phone.

I totally agreed with your first three lines of thought, but there is no legal implication to what he has done, Moral implication yes, but there is nothing unlawful between what he did and what his client wants to do too. Morality has no legal framework anywhere in the world, just personal conscience.

TINUBU AND BUHARI HAS SECRETLY APPROACH THIS MAN (THAT'S IF THE REAL LAWYER IS NOT IMPERSONATED) TO COME OUT AND SPILL THIS TRASH USING CONSCIENCE & REGRETS AS HIS REASONS FOR COMING OUT CLEAN

Oh you expect me to believe the lawyer came out willingly to say he was used and he regrets

Duru1:


The above is a ranting from an imbecilic airhead. When did registering a political party become fraudulent? Instead of you to heap your basement and idiotic frustrations on the crooks who went to Borno for grandstanding and neglected the business of the day, you foolishly channeled your anger on a young man who served his clients.

sluvy4tune:

sorry no name was stolen, i wonder why we nigerians deviate from the facts on ground , The case is simple and clear INEC will not and can not recognise a political party until it is duly registered ,The buhari/tinubu led APC is not legally registered as a political party and as such can not lay claims to ownership of the name APC.....abi bros did you expect INEC to register the party on behalf of the BUHARI/TINUBU led APC ? even if the controversial Registerd APC was PDP masterminded is that the problem of INEC ? BUHARI/TINUBU shud wake up from this paid story publish here and face reality they were simply outsmart !!!!

mediainspired: I seriously dont know why ppl dont bother to check d source of a report, in correlation to d contents of d story to determine d objectivity &veracity of d news & then decide whether to take it serious or not. For example, this 'news' report is by THE NATION, Tinubu's PR proganda paper & their green ACN tales, reporting a PDP story. Go figure, ppl.

Fashola Flags Off First 24–Hour Primary Health Care Flagship Facility
…Urges patience from the public, courteous, efficient service from staff

Lagos State Governor, Mr Babatunde Fashola (SAN) on Thursday formally flagged off the Iga Idunganran Primary Health Care Centre in Central Lagos as the first 24-hour comprehensive basic health care facility, urging members of the public to always be patient with care givers who work under a lot of pressure while also imploring the health officials to do their work courteously and efficiently.

The Governor who spoke at the formal handover ceremony which attracted several dignitaries including the Oba of Lagos, Oba Rilwan Akiolu I noted that citizens who work at the Primary Health Centre should always remember that they got the job in order to serve the people who pay taxes, urging them to do it with courtesy and efficiency.

"Today as we hand over the Iga- Idunganran Primary Health Care Centre, we expect to see the beginning of a very robust grassroots based healthcare service. From today, we expect to see the beginning of a health care service for basic needs like immunization, maternity service and safe deliveries from normal pregnancies".

A member of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Mr. Ikenga Imo Ugochinyere, has taken the Party to court over the possibility of the endorsement of Dr. Okwesilieze Nwodo as the Party’s National Chairman.

In a suit filed at the Abuja Division of the Federal High Court, Mr. Ugochinyere, is asking for an order of interlocutory injunction restraining the PDP or its agents from appointing Dr. Nwodo as the Party’s National Chairman, pending the determination of the substantive suit filed in respect of the matter.

Ikenga Ugochinyere said he was challenging Dr. Nwodo’s candidacy in court because he had not spent a minimum of eighteen months in the Party as stipulated by the Party’s Constitution.

The National Publicity Secretary of the PDP, Professor Rufai Ahmed Alkali, denied knowledge of the suit.
