It would be recalled that during the last raining season, a
certain part of Kogi state was affected by flood, wind and
other natural disaster that left many people homeless and
properties worth hundreds of millions destroyed. During this
trying time a number of spirited individuals and
organizations came to assist these victims in their little
ways pending when the Federal government’s National
emergency management agency would come to their aids
as required by the law.


During this period, several government officials and elected
representative made calls to the NEMA to immediately
assist the people, among such persons is the Governor of
Kogi state, Alhaji Yahaya Bello, Senator Dino Melaye and
member representing Kabba-bunu/Ijumu Federal
constituency, Hon Tajudeen Yusuf.


After several months of waiting, facts emerging from the
NEMA headquarters confirmed that trailers load of Rice,
Mattresses, roofing materials and other house hold
equipment worth hundreds of millions were handed over to
Senator Dino Melaye at the end of December 2016 for
distribution to the victims of the disaster whose livelihood
have become very poor as a result of the disaster.
Senator Dino Melaye, according to the reports, received the
items for the disaster victims in Kabba/Bunu, Ijumu, Lokoja
and Koto karfe LGAs, but he decided to divert the materials
for political gains instead of giving same to the affected
victims.


We can reliably confirm that the Senator shared half of these
items to his political followers and diverted the rest for his
personal gains. We also gathered that part of the items
found their way to Benue state with the connivance of one
Mr Samuel Melaye, who is Senator Melaye’s immediate
younger brother and Senior Legislative Aide. Mr Samuel
Melaye, who is said to be married to an Idoma lady, sent
part of the relief materials to his inlaws as Christmas gift.

Meanwhile, the Kogi West Peoples Front, a social cultural
group of Kogi state has asked the Independent Corrupt
Practices and other related offenses Commission (ICPC) to
immediately commence a thorough investigation into this
grievous allegation as it is considered to be a crime against
humanity.

The organization in a press release on the 1st January 2017
described the act as satanic, wicked and height of corruption
perpetrated by a lawmaker that is supposed to defend his
people.


The spokesman of the group, Alh. Aminu Inuwa Bala decried
it as a wicked act of a rich man to impoverish the people.
Alh Inuwa thanked the Federal government through the
NEMA for considering the plight of the victims by providing
the relief materials but condemned the Senator and called
the behaviora daylight robbery against the poor and attempt
to sabotage the efforts of the Federal Government.


He called on government to begin immediate investigation
and subsequent prosecution of the Senator and the NEMA
officials assigned to monitor the distribution who refused to
do their job but colluded with the Senator to rob the poor.
Efforts to reach Senator Dino Melaye proved abortive as
calls made to his phone was ignored.

Saraki may not command respect in sw, north or northcentral where he comes from, but he has respect and huge followers in south east nigeria.

Proudly Yoruba... Imagine we are the one's holding the key for some people to achieve their aims. Chai.. we are too much....

the day Yoruba people will support biafra, that is the Day we northern, will give up on one nigeria.

kettykin:
If Ojukwu released awolowo then igbos are indeed their worst enemy.

First was going to do a coup against a government that had set the west ablaze with a State of emergency, then second was releasing a renowned hater of the igbo nation from jail to go and commit the worst form of genocidal crime against humanity.
Had they killed awolowo in jail or during the first coup a lot would have been prevented from occurring and igbos would have been better for it.
Igbos committed 2 major blunders.
The first coup and releasing awolowo alive.

hahahahahahaha please the present generation should not commit the 3rd blunder, by not following d right channel to gain biafra.

fashola might be behind dis loan issue, he will be d biggest beneficia, he like to take loan right frm lagos. He know 70% of d money will spent on work, power & housing

Drienzia:
When I see some comments on Nairaland, I'd just smile. Kids talking about politics ignorantly. If u've been following politics since 1990.. You'd know Ibori is a mentor and a Leader. Politically, Ibori is more influential,I repeat more influential than Tinubu. I laugh when I see people saying Buhari should arrest Ibori when he returns to Nigeria. Smh.. Even Buhari knows that if he dares, The militants will so deal with the pipelines as usual. The resource control causing dispute today, was what Ibori agitated for back in 2007, hence the reason OBJ decided to witch hunt him...

Ibori might not contest in 2019, but trust me, his presence would influence the results

BUT CHIEF DR EDWIN CLARK SEND D SOCALLED IBORI TOJAIL. WHY

APC AND SCAM

BELLO IS EVEN WORSE OFF, WITH LIES.

googlepikins:
chagoris brothers are doing wonders in Lagos state, like they did in banana island. So where haters wan from come.

who are chagoris?

good luck Jonathan send ibori 2 prison because of that chief Edwin Clark who claim 2b d godfather of Jonathan now d real godfather of delta state is back. Edwin Clark will hide under bed.

why do you people want to give Buhari bad image. when Jonathan was in power, you ibos never ask for restructuring, rather you ask for additional state so that SE will equal state with other, in the last jamboree contfab.you have ur opportunity but thrown it away.

"if he trusts me and the Federal Government trusts me, I don’t see how this will not
work. I know the government well. I am a member of the ruling party. So I can use
my position well,” Mr. Kalu said"

truly ibo people are chest beaters, when did kalu become Buhari associates or even joins apc, that he is boasting of trusts.

RagnarBankz:
i repeat.......

did u ever heard that Niger Delta invested billions to search for crude oil in their land?


And again...when was crude oil discoverd in the Niger delta!!!


U need to go back to school and read History!!!! Clown!!

Mr man take your stupidity off online, what is Niger delta? is it a company or state? the man is trying to enlightened you and u ar there arguing blindly . haven't you heard that grand nut pyramid money was used to explore oil in south

the southwest has his own plan, statepolice or given state governor power over commissioner of police will be abuse by state governor. And it may cause ethnic problem Within some region,

Handsomecole:
Very useless Idiot! Are you not pary of those that planted the seed of corruption. These old full thinks we can forget easily. Useless man.

no, nobody is corrupt in Nigeria, it's the system that is corrupt.



federalism/unity system of government we are practising is very corrupt. even Buhari can't clean the mess.

ceeethru:
If you give this man power, he will change the topic. one thing I know is that if we want one Nigeria, let there be true federalism. let all state have their freedom. Nigeria is too Big for one man to be in Abuja to control all states, but because of the dependent on crude oil, they will not allow it. Hence, Nigeria problem will not be solved.

that is what Atiku is saying, for Nigeria to get it better, we need to go back to our old form of government, where state/region will control their resources/revenue, not by going to Abuja. d unity system ojukw give us is not helping @llllllll

the region that introduced unity system of government are d caused of Nigeria problem. and they are the one who cried most of marginalisation, they brought aguyi ironsi to destroy regional got for their selfish reason, but now reverse is the case

BoleynDynaSTY:
This man should just shut up abeg

why is dat most ibo dont like to hear d truth, when ur leader speak it

ENUGU— Minister of Labour, Dr Chris Ngige, has dismissed
the statement credited to the National Secretary of Ohanaeze
Ndigbo, Dr Joe Nwaorgu, accusing President Buhari of
allegedly promoting politics of exclusionism against Ndigbo.

Ngige, a former governor of Anambra State, also faulted the
claims that the inability of President Muhammadu Buhari to
pull the country out of the current recession was due to lack
of an economic team, saying that those orchestrating such
claims were job seekers who failed in their bid to be
appointed ministers.

The minister spoke in an interview with reporters at the
annual convention and 2016 graduation ceremony of Skill
Acquisition Students of Bina Foundation, founded by Chris
Atuegwu and his wife, Lady Ifeoma, weekend.

He said that contrary to the statement purportedly made by
Ohanaeze that Ndigbo were being excluded, Buhari’s
antecedents showed that “he loves Ndigbo,” warning Igbo to
stop alienating themselves politically, but instead, embrace
other parts of the country with open hands.

His words: “I am sure the statement did not emanate from
Ohanaeze. It is the personal opinion of the Secretary General,
Dr Joe Nwaorgu, who is my personal friend. Ohanaeze has
means of expressing its views through press statements,
which are usually signed by the President General and the
Secretary. Such statements must also emanate from Imeobi
(inner caucus).

“When you go to Buhari’s antecedents, you see his love for
Igbo. His Brigade Commander was an Igboman. After the
war, he did not kill prisoners of war. He brought back his
classmates, J.C. Ojukwu and the other man from Ojoto in
Anambra State. He is a good man. He keeps to himself and
does not socialise but, he is disciplined in office.”

Ngige further noted that since there was an understanding
that the presidency would go round, Ndigbo would get their
turn by embracing other parts of the country with open hands
and not by talking about politics of alienation.

d governor just said d plain truth, 80% of ibo want one Nigeria

Baawaa:
Nigeria will be great again,those that can not do without stealing were resigning

don't pray to work under a corrupt tyrant like Bello

Barely six month in office, the Commissioner for Agriculture
in Kogi state, Dr Tim Nda Diche has resigned.
His resignation was announced by the Director General,
Media and Publicity to Governor Bello, Fanwo Kingsley at
the end of the state executive meeting held at the
government house in Lokoja.

Fanwo, who failed to give details on why the Bassa-born
businessman tendered his resignation letter, told journalist
that the former commissioner resigned on personal grounds.
Fanwo added that his resignation was received by the
secretary to the state government, Mrs Folashade Arike
Ayoade.

Dr Diche was among 15 commissioners appointed by
g overnor Yahaya Bello in June 2016.

It was not clear if Dr Diche was not in good terms with his
principal, but unconfirmed sources however has it that the
former commissioner was tired of signing documents and
memos which were not originally prepared by his ministry.
Sometimes last week, Governor Yahaya Bello threatened to
sack any commissioner who is not in tune with his
administration’s new direction agenda to move the state
forward.

Governor Bello gave the warning while addressing reporters
after an unscheduled visit to Government Day Secondary
School, Adankolo in the state capital, Lokoja.

…if late Abubakar Audu were to be alive as governor, Kogi State would have been wearing a new look.
By: Odimayo Olatunde.
The immediate past Governor of Kano State and now a serving Senator of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, Senator Rabiu Musa Kwakwanso has disclosed that late Prince Abubakar Audu won the 2015 Governorship election, but God in his mercy decided that he will not come back to continue from where he stopped in Kogi State.
Senator Kwakawanso who made the disclosure at the first annual lecture of the late political icon, commemorating one year anniversary of his demise from mother earth called for the sustainability of his development legacies in the State.
The event which was attended by prominent dignitaries from different works of life according to the serving Senator is a lesson to Nigerians, pointing that the late two time governor gained the maximum support during his electioneering campaign but is no more to fulfill all the promises he gave his people prior to the State Governorship election.
While eulogizing late Audu for his remarkable achievement between 1992 and 2003, he noted that late Prince Abubakah Audu name will forever be written in gold not only in Kogi State, adding that a bridge was named in his honour in Kano State.
He added that if late Abubakar Audu were to be alive as governor, Kogi State would have been wearing a new look, he charge leaders in the State to immortalize him for all his achievement in education, health, youth empowerment and housing.
“When I and my friend, Prince Abubakar were governors, including other State governors, we won trophies for our outstanding performance in government but he “Audu” had the highest among us all. As a mark of respect, I used to seek advice from him, because of his intellectual and visionary attribute to making things work, he has that charisma of changing the fortunes of things for the development of his people”, Kwakwanso averred.
Also speaking, the son of the late political icon, Prince Mohammed Audu described his father as a man for all season who died to liberate his people from poverty, malnutrition, health decay as well as infrastructural and under development.
Prince Mohammed Audu maintained that his father laid a strong foundation for the State to strive politically, economically and educationally, adding that, during his tenure as governor, he established the Kogi State University, Anyigba, the first television station (NTA) Dangote cement factory, Obajana, Radio Kogi, Graphic Newspaper and was also involved in youth empowerment to rid the State from crime.
On the new foundation initiated by him to continue with his fathers’ legacies which he titled, Prince Abubakar Audu foundation, the young Prince Audu promised that the foundation will be championed on empowering youths , women, old, young, poverty alleviation, scholarships and improve health services which will cut across the 21 Local Government Areas of the State.
It will be recalled that late Prince Abubakar Audu who was born in 1947 died November 22, 2015 shortly before INEC declared the governorship election in Kogi State inconclusive.
