It is so pathetic what is happening in Kogi Politics

This GEJ govt sef, we are still waiting for the names of boko haram sponsors promised by FG to be published. Msheeew

Murder can not be justified under any circumstances, no matter how wicked the late woman was, they have no right to take her life. If she was a difficult person, they had the right to work away and leave her alone not kill her. Anybody who justify this mother should put their wife, sister or mother in her position and the you will see that it is not right.

Husband and wife or wives should stay together, I support the school of thought that suggest that if her family we with her probably the evil perpetrators wouldnt have had the change to kill her and put her in the fridge. Economic reasons have been the major reason why these kind of seperation exist these days but couples should try and stay together as much as they can

There is nothing new from MTN, N1500 with restriction for emails, its same old rubbish.

No Jimoh Ibrahim, No Otedola on that list. I believe their wealth is overestimated then.

5000km or 3 months is appropraite for a fairly new car but for old cars ,2000 km or every 6 weeks is ideal.

Believe this, Believe anything

Goat meat na dey final be that, especially the He goat, that smell na the effesy be dat

@Poster, you should have heard the saying "SAVING THE BEST FOR THE LAST" like most things in life the best moments are when its about to end.

The Real Tessy Wigwe, Written By Nelson Wigwe (Son)
NAIROBI–First of all let me say how angry, sad and disappointed I am at the public who have already ridiculed my father H.E Dr Chijoke W Wigwe without hearing all the facts. Without talking to the people who were there, without talking to the people who know him best. Without talking to the people who know H.E Tess Wigwe and know exactly what she is capable of. For days, I have been holding back information because my mother H.E Tess Wigwe is the woman who bore me, the woman who raised me, and she is the woman who has provided for me my whole life. But with that said I cannot sit back and allow her to ruin my father’s life and disgrace Nigeria like this. Now before I continue I think it’s crucial that you know a couple of facts. I have lived with my mother my whole life. I have never and will never put anyone before her. So if you’re stupid enough to think that I will lie for my father against my mother? You are sadly mistaken.

On May the 11, I was in my bedroom lying down listening to music when I heard a loud commotion coming from my mother and fathers room. I heard my mother shouting telling my father “I cook food for you and you don’t eat” I thought nothing of it because my mother and father argue a lot, so I ignored it at first. But then the commotion got louder. That’s when I left my room to investigate what was going on. When I arrived, I found my mother and father arguing in the hallway. My mother was yelling at me “look at my face, look at what your father did” I looked at my mother’s face and she had some cuts and small amounts of blood on it, her face was nothing like those horrific pictures that we all saw in the star on May the 26 2011. I tried to calm my mother down and I escorted her into her bedroom to clean her face. I took a face towel and soaked it with dettol and tried to clean her face but she refused. “No” my mother shouted “I want to show everyone what your father has done, I want the press and everybody to see”. I mean she was not complaining of any pain, she was not holding any part of her body in pain. She was not dazed or confused apart from the small cuts, she was fine.

My mother told the star that “she was rescued by her 20 year old son and her 23 year old daughter” but that’s a lie because I found them arguing in the hall. My mother also said in the same interview “He grabbed me by the hand and when I tried to pull away, he hurled me against the wall and started punching me” But when I arrived at the scene I saw my mother and father having an argument, like all husbands and wife’s have now and again.

So after my mother refused that I should clean her face. She incredibly asked me to look for her camera. She said and I quote “Nelson look for my camera, I want people to see what your father has done, I want everybody to know what happened even the press” to say I was shocked was an understatement, my mother claims that my father “battered” her but yet here she is, looking around for her camera, instead of telling me to take her to hospital. Could it be that my mother is lying?
She eventually found her camera and phoned her friend to come and pick her up. My mother then went outside of the house to wait for her friend. On the way out my mother took photos of her face. My father locked the front door because at this point my mother was shouting at the top of her voice, saying, “I will finish you this Chijioke Wigwe, and you shall see what will happen”

She also mentioned my father’s term, and mentioned that the possibility of any future opportunity for him, she will destroy. As she waited outside for her friend to arrive, my mother was shouting wild accusations at the top her voice. “Your father sleeps around with woman; your father is an evil man” My father was furious with these accusations and unlocked the door to confront my mother but I held him back. My mother continued to disgrace herself by shouting “ Chijoke Wigwe you are not fit to be Ambassador, you are a coward, your mother is a LovePeddler, I will finish you here in Kenya, mark my words”
At this point, me, my sister, the chef and the security man, are all trying to calm her down, but she was continuing to shout and trying to fight. My nephew was also there, who is a small child, but It didn’t seem to bother her that he was witnessing the argument. She continued and my sister begged with her to stop for the sake of her son. It was not long after this point that she went looking for bricks and pot plants that are located around the residence. She picked up a pot plant and tried to throw it. My sister stopped her and the contents were spilled all over her as a result. When that didn’t succeed, she eventually picked up a brick and hurled it at the window. Twice. Eventually shattering it. This is the person who claimed to have suffered injuries including severe back pain. So, how, therefore, did she manage to hurl large objects and break our security windows?

She eventually calmed down, and that was when her friend came. My father then left the house to see who had arrived, and told the person to just leave. They drove away.
Maybe everyone is confused as to why my Mother would do something like this.
Before my mother left London, it was agreed that every month my Father would be using a large portion of his allowance to pay her mortgage. That means that for the past two and a half years, my Mother has been sending that money to London to pay her mortgage for her house. Problems entailed when she realized that the so called trust worthy person was in fact keeping every cent of that money. So, as we speak, she is in serious debt.
I cannot stress the amount of times that my mother has been worrying about the repossession of her house in London, due to the theft.
When it comes to money, my mother is like a lioness protecting her cub. She will stop at nothing to try and make up for the loss of that money.
Including, but not limited to, lying to my father, and the embassy. Saying that things in the house were broken or needed repair, receiving the money for it, then keeping the money to herself. Despite the fact that there is never any food in the house, which she receives a large amount each month for, she managed to pay for a plane ticket for her old friend from England to arrive here. This now being the new person entrusted with the payment of her mortgage.
Yet, despite this expensive plane ticket, and the sheer thousands of pounds that are sent back to London, our Nigerian residence here, is somewhat of a joke. The five security dogs that we have here, who are Rottweiler’s by the way, are all suffering from malnutrition and some are starving.

She receives around 20,00ksh for these dogs, yet a mere 3,000 is what is used per month to feed these large animals. Instead of a diet of meat and protein, they receive rice!

My sister has been here since April from the US. When she arrived, true to my mother’s nature, she started once again into a long ongoing fight with her. Banning her from using the car, making her and my nephew take taxi cabs and finally telling our chef he is not allowed to prepare food for her! My sister even had to use her American bank card just so she could eat!
The same thing happened to me in 2008, when I myself arrived with her from London. Not allowing me to use the car, or buying food. I was even accused of conniving against her with an old lady that was brought here from a village in Nigeria to work on the residence. Now, bare in mind this is a small woman in stature, and also quite feeble. This woman was battered by my mother as she accused her of turning me against her.
She then ordered that the woman not be allowed to eat, or drink at all. I remember secretly making a meal for her as I felt bad, but she came in and saw me and an argument ensued. After everything that this woman was put through, which for her was hell, she was then made to leave. The other staff members have followed the same fate. Some have lost their jobs other were merely fired, based on the fact she thought they were stupid.
Prior to her arrival most of these people had their jobs for a long time. An example was a man called Ibraham who was not only my father’s driver but a driver to many other diplomats before him. My Mother was actually jealous of the close friendship they had. So, next thing we knew, he was fired. Most if not all of our current staff all work in fear of her.
In my 20 years of existence, I have actually never once witnessed an act of unkindness from my father.
My mother on the other hand, well, this is the woman who I have the worst memories of growing up. Especially concerning my sister. Which is why I’m disgusted at the hypocrisy of her “battered woman” claim.
There were many times when I would witness her picking on and beating my older sister, then I would write letters to her and slip them under her bedroom door as I heard her crying on the other side. I will never forget that.
At 16 she was kicked out of the house, and my mother will deny doing so to this day, even though we ALL witnessed it. In London, when my sister was pregnant at 24, I have never seen such evil behaviour towards her. We all thought it would get better, but it didn’t. A great example of this is when we had a small mouse that used to always appear now and then, in the kitchen.
Although heavily pregnant and working at the time, my mother ordered my sister who was tired, and going through bad bouts of morning sickness, to clean the mouse droppings. When she asked if I could do it she was told, no and an argument ensued and she was almost made to do it. My sister stood her ground and refused.
She would also spray air freshener in the room my sister was staying in, although she knew certain smells were literally making her sick. As a result, my sister not only left my mother’s house, although she had nowhere to go, but she went all the way to New York, 6months pregnant with about 30 dollars to her name. She even had to ask her GP for permission to travel as she was so heavy at that point.
As for my Father, on top of NEVER raising a hand to any of us, He has literally supported us in any way he can.
My sister used to live with him in New York and study fashion and photography. He used to also pay her rent in California just because she was unable to work. He has paid for even our brother’s girlfriends to come and visit in New York and elsewhere. He has always let us have our friends over and used to take us out to the cinema, to the park, to play, and to watch us at our sports games for support.
My mother wouldn’t even let friends of ours in the house. My Father is loved and she has always hated that. She never understood why people didn’t take to her the same way. It never occurred to her that the way she treated people would have an effect on how they saw her.
His kindness extends to his staff and they all reap the benefits of this. He never thought himself higher than anyone else and for this, his staff always received respect from him despite his powerful positions.
My Father’s good nature has influenced us all. His love for music, has influenced all of us. His love of the arts, has brought out a brilliant talent in my sister which he has always encouraged and nurtured. He would wake up every day and put on Bob Dylan and listen to classical music.
We have fond memories of him listening to his music, dancing and even making up his own lyrics to make us laugh.
He is kind and very funny and even though my nephew has not been here long, Grandad is the one he runs to whenever he would return home.
After events, he would come home, sit down with a small glass of whiskey and tell us interesting stories. He never raised his voice or yelled at us. He was always calm and peaceful. This is his true nature. Not the barbaric monster he has been made out to be. One of my brother’s got wind of the news in London and called him crying, and devastated. We all are. This is not the father we have grown up to, love and adore. It hurts us to see such mean things said about him.
I haven’t even lived with my Father my whole life. Yet, the times that I was staying with him due to his occupation, were some of the best times and memories of my life. Like Warsaw Poland, Manhattan in New York, and then here in Nairobi, Kenya.
I have lived with my mother my entire life, so I hope it’s understood the difficulty in me writing this letter. But, I must do it. For the sake of my family, for the sake of Nigeria and the reputation my father has worked so hard to achieve.
But the truth must be known to all not just me.

Anorld, too bad, very dissapionting

Virginity is a ballon, just one PRICK and it is all over.

Kudos to those who have kept their ballons safe, for the fallen sisters, Pls don't player hate .

You lost doesnt mean you are bad, but truth be told those who kept it will be rewarded by ernomous respect and trust from their husbands.

Yea right, I now get it.

IBB is a victim of June 12 just as Osama Bin Laden is a victim of 911.

Just like Adolf Hitler was a victim of Holocaust in WW11.

RUBBISH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! No one can rewrite history. Let him go and tell all folk tales to his grand kids born after 1993.

IBB murdered democracy and come 2011 is payback time for democracy.

Let him contest and try and buy votes he will only be redistributing all those billions.

At least it will be an injection in our economy, so new millionaires will emerge.

chosen04:
I personally dont feel sorry for the victims of October 1st Bomb Blast!!!. . . . . . . . . . I heard from a reliable source that they were paid to turn up for the celebration of ''50 yrs of FAILURES'' inspite of the warning to stay out of eagle square.

If any of them was a family member i wont even mind!

I dont like attacking people personally on this forum but you leave no choice with such a heartless jezeebel like opinion. Nigeria leaders has failed over the last 50 years is never reason good enough to start bombing places. This kind of attitude can never change anything for the better, it is through non voilence movement like that of Gandhi of India, Rev King of black right movement in the US, Mandela of South Africa that real change can occur. The citizens of Nigeria needs re-orientation, paraphrasing Bob Marley, "We need to emancipate ourrselves from mental slavery and non but ourselves can free ourselves can free our minds".

The victims of the bomb blast have their bloods on the hands of the evil doers. Even if they are paid to come for that event, they were just try to make a living in land where 70% of 150 million people below N150 ($1) a day. If you go into their personal daily struggle they may not be as fortunate as you rich enough to resist such free money offer from the government.

Mend and all who wants the country to ruled rightly should take the fight to educating the electorates, let us protect our votes. Let us vote based on issues and not ethnicity and religious consideration. Let us change the government through the power that really belong to the people VOTES not BOMBS.

Why does it always have to be Dokpesi?

He loves been in d news

IBB and dokpesi will do anything to get sympathy votes, the man is an evil genuis he can manipulate anything

As far as I know the JTF are Godsent. 172 people, yes it is possible but it is an acceptable loss, if you live in Aba in the last two years, you will agree with me. Its possible that the kidnapping ring that held Aba to ransom included up to 1000 persons, it was a well organised ring. From phone call centre operators to the keke riders then to the the militia were all enganged in this crime. All working together, at times put the victim under survillence until they are whisked away. There were some many smaller camps too operating on their own, even some students decided to join the elicit business.

As at today Aba is relatively calm, the banks have opened, so have the markets. Hold up have started resurfacing but the public confidence is yet to return fully, that will come with time.JTF are still rounding more people connected to the kidnapping with information provided by the captured kidnappers.

The failed Governor in a desperate move to redeem his battered and shattered imagine annouced he will be relocating to Aba to show that Aba is save. Why didnt he do that 2 weeks ago, desperate politician, let him come and face the gullies we called road in Aba  and filth that smells to high heavens

bendownselect!

RIBADU is the answer, fellow nigerians!

Ciroma nad his group has lost it. The North is not interested in blind politics anymore. Leaders who can attend to the need of the masses is what everyone wants.

I am not for or gainst jonathan but I think it is insane for some irrelevant selfish expired old fools to play politics out of a very unfortunate incidence.

GEJ gaffed when he hurriedly exonarated meant but that is not an impeachable offense neither is a mass muderer so called confession a fact that can be relied on.

The fact is that Presidents all over the world make mistakes that even cost lives and they are not impeached.
Bush took America to a hopless war in iraq, he was not impeached even at the height of his unpopularity home and abroad.

Thank God Nigerians have started seeing beyond the ethnic curtian that have been used by these self serving politicians to their personal gains. WE WILL BE GREAT AGAIN.

RIBADU IS THE ANSWER!

GEJ, IBB, ATIKU INFACT BIRDS OF THESAME FEATHER!


RIBADU IS THE ANSWER!![/size][size=8pt][size=8pt][/size]

Forget IBB Forget Jonathan Forget Atiku Forget Bukola Forget Gusau.

They all THESAME.

Lets try someone different, RIBADU


He is the fresh start Nigeria needs.


Let us chase PDP theives and liers away come 2011

ABUJA, Oct 05, (THEWILL) - Contrary to rumours going round that there is a bomb at the headquarters of the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation, NNPC, THEWILL can report that there is no bomb threat at the facility.

Several readers had called in to confirm if there was a bomb at the headquarters.

THEWILL gathered from the group general manager, public affairs of the corporation, Mr. Livi Ajunoma that security agencies were conducting a bomb drill at the facility which included evacuating personnel from the building without prior warning.

He said there was no cause for alarm as security agencies were only preparing for that scenario should it occur in the future.

Does IBB now mean= INDEPENDENCE BOMB BLAST? just curious!

There is nothing wrong with the millitary been involved in the Aba saga, for those of us that live and work in Aba, this is a welcomed news.

Nigerian police is not ill equipped, yes they may not have the gadgets that scotland yard or NYPD, LAPD have but  their major disease is the love for N20 and N50. Even if you have all they gadgets in the world but concentrate on extorting money from motorist.

The Millitary (Army, Navy, Airforce) are business like and in times like this, Aba needs to have such for the public confidence to be return for the town to come back to life. GEJ has declared a partial stae ofemergency and TA Orji has lost the elections already. At last Aba will be free

Aba is worst than dafur because the AU forces are there confronting the millitia. Aba ia not defended by anybody, policemen are busy collecting N20 names from keke riders and giving them numbers even the army on opobo rd in ogbor hill, one of the kidnappers highway are collecting N50 from 6am till 9 am then they clear away till the next morning. Kidnappers are free to do their biddings.

T A Orji has failed in Abia, GEJ has failed as a president both dont deserve a second time. T A Orji should resign now or face charges of GENOCIDE by UN. Its time to take Aba case to the UN since FG led by jonathan is playing politics with peoples lives.

IBB should go and sit down, Mamman Vatsa, Dele Giwa, MKO Abiola to name a few of his victims will rise from their graves to slap him. He has no shame. At 69 he should be attending to his grand children and let Nigerians try to put back what is left of his 8 years of evil rule not causing heart aches by even showing interest in ruling us again. what is he complaining about. HE MURDERED SLEEP, HE WILL SLEEP NO MORE.

It is a shame that the Nigerian Press has refused to focus on the pathetic situation in Aba. Our president has also refused to see what is happening, he is shamelessly welcoming a failed governor into his fold. T A Orji has failed in providing infastructure, failed in security even in payment of salaries, yet he seeks reelection and Mr President still welcomed him to his fold, I dont root for any politician in the 2011 elections but We certainly dont have a messiah in all the candidiates in PDP, GEJ and T A Orji will be held accountable for the lives lost in Aba by GOd almighty. We dont have leaders in Nigeria but selfish politicians, the president will not declare state of emergency in Abia , because he needs T A Orji backing in PDP primaries and general election. SHAME ON THESE SHAMELESS POLITICIANS, who have no regard for human lives!
