Ondo State Deputy Governor, Agboola Ajayi, says he has no plan to dump his party, the All Progressives Congress (APC) for the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Igbere TV reports. Reports had it on Sunday that the deputy governor was planning to dump the APC for the PDP to contest the 2020 governorship election against his boss, Governor Rotimi Akeredolu. But reacting in a statement sent to Igbere TV by Babatope Okeowo, his Deputy Chief Press Secretary, Ajayi said that the report was sponsored and a product of attention and job seekers. He apologised to Governor Aminu Tambuwal of Sokoto State whose name was mentioned as being the sponsor of the alleged plan to contest on the PDP’s platform in Ondo State. The Deputy Chief Press Secretary, therefore, reiterated the loyalty of his principal and Deputy Governor, to Governor Rotimi Akeredolu. Full Statement, “The attention of the Deputy Governor of Ondo State, Hon. Agboola Ajayi, has been drawn to a sponsored story that he wants to dump the All Progressives Congress(APC) for the rival Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in order to contest next year’s governorship election. “The deputy governor is unperturbed by this sponsored story and the ones before it as these are the handiwork of attention and job seekers. “These funny characters are well known within the political circle in the state. “This is to say that this is a blatant falsehood as Hon. Ajayi remains a bonafide member of the APC and has no plan to dump the party for any rival political party. “There is no place where the Deputy Governor has met with stalwarts of the PDP not to talk of dividing their party,” the statement said in part. “This is to say emphatically that Hon. Agboola Ajayi has no intention to contest against his boss. “We want to say that we know that the plan of the sponsors of the story is to cause serious rift between Governor Akeredolu and his deputy for their selfish reasons.” http://igberetvnews.com/911734/ondo-deputy-gov-speaks-on-plan-to-dump-apc-for-pdp/ Lalasticlala, Mynd44, OAM4J

The Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, has banned President Muhammadu Buhari from travelling outside the country, Igbere TV reports. The group also placed a similar ban on Lt. Gen. Tukur Buratai, Nigeria’s Chief of Army staff, from any foreign trip. Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the IPOB, announced the ban during a live broadcast on Radio Biafra monitored by Igbere TV, on Sunday. He lampooned the two leaders for launching ‘Operation Python Dance’ against “armless” Biafran agitators in the South East, during which many IPOB members were reportedly killed. “Any day you see Jubril aka Buhari or Buratai anywhere outside Nigeria, they will understand the meaning of anger”, Kanu stated. The ‘Operation Python Dance’ was launched by the army in the South East in 2016 in the wake of protests by IPOB members who were demanding secession from Nigeria. During the ‘Operation Python Dance’, the Nigerian army raided Umuahia, Abia State, the home town of the leader of the IPOB, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, reports Igbere TV. Meanwhile, Igbere TV had earlier reported that the IPOB has placed a N1 million bounty on four governors in the South East region. The affected governors include Dave Umahi (Ebonyi), Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi (Enugu), Okezie Ikpeazu (Abia) and Willie Obiano (Anambra). The announcement comes barely 24 hours after Senator Ike Ekweremadu, immediate past Deputy Senate President, was attacked by members of IPOB in Germany, on Saturday. Kanu had earlier praised the act of his members, while sending a strong note of warning to the governors and Chief Nnia Nwodo, President-General of Ohanaeze Ndigbo. http://igberetvnews.com/910149/breaking-ipob-bans-buhari-buratai-from-foreign-trips/
