The Supreme Niger Delta Youth Council Worldwide (SNDYCW) says it has formally adopted President Muhammadu Buhari for an unquestionable and constitutional second term in office come 2019.
The SNDYCW National President, Prince Michael Newgent Ekamon, in a statement, said President Buhari has done well, notwithstanding the bottlenecks which he has been faced with in the last 18 months.

The N/Delta youths said Nigerians should come together to throw their weight behind the president whom they described as best chance and best shot at the future as envisaged by the founding fathers 56 years ago.
The group also called on the Senate to tender an unreserved apology to the Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF), Engr. Babachir David Lawal, and Nigerians for raising a false alarm and smear campaign against the SGF.
SNDYCW also said the rejection of EFCC Chairman Ibrahim Magu and false allegation against the SGF by the Senate was an indirect attack on President Buhari.
Ekamon threatened both mass and legal actions if the Senate did not publish the apology as an advertorial in not less than five national dailies on their front pages within seven days.

A former deputy governor in Plateau State, Amb. Ignatius Longjang, yesterday defected to the All Progressives Congress (APC).

Longjang, a deputy to former governor Jonah Jang, was received along with another former governor and now senator representing Plateau Central, Joshua Dariye, by the APC national chairman, Chief John Odigie-Oyegun, at the Jos township stadium.

Also received into the APC yesterday were the incumbent deputy Speaker of the State House of Assembly, Yusuf Gagdi, and many other new entrants.

The APC state chairman, Lateb Dabang, who announced the names of 17 major political leaders from the three senatorial zones who joined the party, stated that their defection followed due process.

Governor Simon Lalong, who spoke at the occasion, said the event marked the return of “who is who in Plateau politics”.

Welcoming the new members, Oyegun said despite the hardship in the land, the people of Plateau State had shown resilience and belief in the APC by supporting the Muhammadu Buhari administration.

He assured the people of the state that the country’s economy would recover by next year.

“Things will be different by this time next year. Everyone will be smiling. We will not even be talking about importing rice into this country,” he added.

Earlier, the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Yakubu Dogara, has described the APC as a party built on the foundation of justice and assured the new members that every party member would be treated justly.

Former President of the Nigerian Bar Association, Joseph B. Daudu SAN has called upon President Mohammedu Buhari to look for better Nigerians who will run the Economic and Financials Crime Commission (EFCC).

Former President of the Nigerian Bar Association, Joseph B. Daudu SAN has called upon President Mohammedu Buhari to look for better Nigerians who will run the Economic and Financials Crime Commission (EFCC).

Addressing a press conference Tuesday in Abuja, JB Daudu who is also the Chairman of the African Bar Association (ABA) said that President Buhari must consider the Magu experience as a failure and treat the file as closed.

“There is no doubt that the appointment of EFCC Chairman is not only within the purview of the President but subject to the confirmation of the Senate. What this means is that the rejection by the Senate of the nomination of Mr. Ibrahim Magu automatically ends his role within the EFCC.

“His formal nomination to the office of Chairman of the EFCC automatically nullified his position as Acting Chairman of the same immediately he was rejected as a nominee for the Chairmanship. Consequently, the sojourn of Mr. Magu at the EFCC has come to an end,” JB Daudu said.

At least 12 children were killed when a pickup van ran into a procession of students marking the birthday of Prophet Muhammad in a town in Gombe state yesterday.

The incident happened in Malam Sidi town 20 kilometres away from Gombe, the state capital.

A witness, who craved for anonymity, said the driver was coming from Gombe on a high speed when he lost control and ran into the Maulud procession.

The event was staged by hundreds of Islamiya School pupils some of whom came from neighbouring villages.

A witness said he counted about 20 corpses, adding that over 30 children were injured and taken to the Cottage Hospital in Malam Sidi.

He said angry mob killed the driver and set the vehicle ablaze before police arrived the scene.

Confirming the incident, the Gombe State Command Public Relations Officer, DSP Ahmed Usamn, said the accident occurred at 12 noon when a driver travelling alone in his car from Gombe to Bajoga lost control and ran into the children procession.

DSP Usman said eight were confirmed dead and 19 others were evacuated by the police medical team to Federal Teaching Hospital and Gombe Specialists Hospital for treatment.

He said the police had launched an investigation into the incident and that they were also on the trail of those that killed the driver and burnt the car.

The police spokesman added that the combined operation of military personnel and Mobile Police Rapid Response Unit has restored law and order and normalcy had since returned to the town.

Meanwhile the funeral prayer for 12 of the children that lost their lives was held around 5:00pm at the premises of the Cottage Hospital, Malam Sidi.

The medical officer-in-charge of the Cottage Hospital, Malam Sidi, Dr.Ibrahim Dawaki, told Daily Trust that 24 injured victims were brought to the hospital. He said 12 of them who were critically injured had been taken to Gombe for further medical attention.

Malam Muhammad, the father of one of the victims still receiving treatment at the hospital, narrated to Daily Trust how he learnt about the accident.

“My son left home in the morning with other students from his school to join other neighbouring villages to attend the Maulud procession in Malam Sidi.

“Around 12:30pm I was at home when information reached me that my son was involved in an accident. I quickly rushed to Malam Sidi devastated but fortunately he is not injured, he only got some bruises,” he said.

According to Malam Muhammad Usman resident of Malam Sidi, he was at the road side watching the procession in which his seven-year old daughter was participating, when suddenly a car rammed into it.

“My daughter was among the children in the procession when the driver lost control of his car and run into them. He marched many of them before he finally packed the car and attempted to run.

“But he could not escape he was apprehended by angry mob who set both him and the car ablaze,” Malam Usman explained.
