Factional chairman of the Nigeria
Governors Forum (NGF), Governor Jonah
Jang of Plateau State, and three other
members of his group – Governors
Olusegun Mimiko (Ondo), Peter Obi
(Anambra) and Liyel Imoke (Cross River) –
are blaming the Chairman of the rival
group, Governor Rotimi Amaechi, of
igniting the crisis in the Forum.
They alleged that Amaechi insisted on
going for second term as the NGF chairman
in the name of an “unknown constitution”,
and contrary to the Forum’s convention
stipulating one term only for the incumbent
chairman.
The four governors spoke at a press
conference in Abuja, yesterday.
Jang, who alleged that Amaechi as
Chairman of the NGF, turned himself into a
dictator, stressed that there was never
anywhere in the Forum’s constitution that a
Chairman could be re-elected.
The Plateau governor explained that there
was no time governors met to ratify the
constitution, adding that the only time they
parleyed on the issue was when Vice
President Namadi Sambo was still the
governor of Kaduna State, insisting the
constitution was never ratified to
accommodate a sitting Chairman re-
contesting, “contrary to what Amaechi was
propagating”.

Olusegun Mimiko (Ondo), factional Vice
Chairman; and Jonah Jang (Plateau),
factional chairman.
The governor said, “Amaechi virtually
became a dictator, dictating everything. He
brought in a constitution that many of us
had never seen or aware of. The only time
we looked into the constitution was when
Namadi Sambo was still there and there
was nowhere that says a sitting Chairman
could be re-elected. The constitution was
never ratified.”
Describing the video coverage of the
election as improper, the factional NGF
chairman said, “We have never called
journalists to video our proceedings; if it is
Amaechi that planted the camera, it is
morally corrupt”.
When asked why the Forum had not
intervened in the suspension of the Rivers
governor from the PDP, Jang, who noted
that the matter was not the business of
NGF, but, that of the PDP Governors Forum,
said that Amaechi had not formally
reported the matter to the NGF.
Speaking on how elections had been
conducted by the NGF since 1999, the
Cross River governor, Imoke, who
explained that the elections had always
been by consensus, said the reason was to
avoid acrimony that would otherwise
emanate after election.
Imoke said, “It is a consensus between the
North and South that it will be one term.
For the 14 years of the existence of the
NGF, there has never been an election. The
reason we agreed on consensus is because
it will be divisive.
Mimiko,. who expressed worry over the
unfolding scenario, said that not one
governor would say he was very proud of
what happened at the Forum.
The Ondo governor blamed the Rivers
governor for the development, saying he
(mimiko) did not vote during the election,
but that 18 governors endorsed Jang for
the chairmanship position. He added that
the day after the election, 18 members
reported when Jang called for a meeting.
According to him, Amaechi, notwith-
standing that he was a contender in the
poll, took over everything, including the
printing of the ballot papers and
procurement of ballot boxes which,
according to him, was against the principle
of democratic practice. He stated that had
the governors in opposition to Amaechi
walked out during the election, which was
one of the options, Nigerians would have
misconstrued it to mean another thing,
adding that the other option was for them
to smash the ballot box.
He challenged whoever carried out the
video coverage during the election to show
the total clips. Mimiko described the NGF
as a voluntary association any governor
could decide to leave anytime.
According to him, the best thing to do
before the election was for Amaechi to step
down for somebody else to preside over
the election, but Amaechi “insisted that he
will not vacate the seat before the
election”.
S/East govs endorsed me – Obi
Obi said South-east governors had
endorsed him for the governors forum chair
before Amaechi was picked for the position
in 2011, adding that he lost the position
because he was not from PDP.
A letter, signed by his colleagues from the
four other South-Easter states: Theodore
Orji, Martins Elechi, Sullivan Chime and
Ohakim, with reference number SEGF/S/
GOVS/INT/1/022 and addressed to Saraki,
who was then Chairman of NGF, with the
heading “nomination of Mr. Peter Obi”,
said, “We, the governors of the South-east
of Nigeria wish to respectfully nominate Mr.
Peter Obi, Governor of Anambra state of
Nigeria as a candidate for the position of
Chairman, Nigerian Governors Forum.
”Our action in this regard is unanimous as a
zone and is borne of our firm conviction
that he will discharge the functions of this
office with credibility, dedication and due
diligence”.
The Anambra governor said he was
surprised that the meeting, which was
supposed to be a valedictory session for the
former Kwara governor and NGF Chairman,
was turned to an election event, where
Amaechi emerged as Saraki’s successor,
adding that he was then begged to accept
the position of Vice Chairman.
He described the Forum as an association
that is not recognised by the Nigeria
constitution, adding that the NGF was a
trouble for him when he was Vice
Chairman.
Meanwhile, Saraki, yesterday, faulted Obi
over the claim that the South-east
governors endorsed him for the NGF chair
before Amaechi was suddenly picked for
the position in 2011, saying the Anambra
governor was rejected.
The former Kwara State governor, who
explained that Obi was rejected because he
was not a member of majority party,
stressed that there was no trade off, as it
was the convention that the party with the
majority governors should produce the
chairman of the NGF and he was not in the
party.

Omisore need to see a doctor!

Retired Gen. Muhammad Buhari, leader of the Congress for Progressive Change (CPC), said the evolution of All Progressive Congress (APC) was not for personal aggrandisement, but for national cohesion.

He stated this at the inauguration of constituency projects by member representing Zaria at the House of Representatives, Rep. Abbass Tajuddeen in Zaria, Kaduna State on Wednesday.

Buhari, represented by CPC Chairman in Kaduna State, Alhaji Ahmadu Yaro-Cocacola, said APC, if elected, was determined to foster national unity and restore hope to Nigerians.

He appealed to electorate to remain humble and peaceful during and after 2015 general election with a view to electing credible candidates into various elective positions for the good of the nation.

Buhari lauded the efforts of the lawmaker for bringing the dividends of democracy close to the door steps of his people and called on other members to emulate him.

prem love: So u guys mean u pay money to cross ordinary bridge wtf, i cant imagine dis nonsense in my own state wat nonsense and some idiot are here celebrating, na wa for naija ooo

Which language u dey speak? Igbo or tivs?
That why your state will never developed. Soup wey sweet nah money kill am ok.

Wentin u dey talk self because I no understand u abeg.

The State Security Service (SSS) has
again gone after the press, last Monday in
Abeokuta arresting and harassing Segun
Olatunji, the Ogun State Correspondent of
The Punch.
Mr. Olatunji went to the offices of the SSS
at the invitation of Joseph Okpo, its state
Director, who had sent an invitation to
him though Kehinde Akinyemi, the
Chairman of the Ogun State Council of the
Nigeria Union of Journalists (NUJ).
SaharaReporters has learned that Olatunji
was then subjected to a full day of
exhausting and humiliating questioning
and harassment by Okpo himself, who
then tagged with his deputy, Yau Umar, to
continue the process, before he was
handed over to their Principal Staff Officer
(PSO).
The men, who said their activities had to
do with issues “bordering on national
security,” questioned the correspondent
about his academic qualifications and
work experience. They then began an
interrogation about a story in the Sunday
Punch which contained allegations by two
former government insiders against
former President Olusegun Obasanjo
about his maintenance in place of a killer
squad that was previously used by
General Sani Abacha.
Last month, the two men, Segun Seriki
and Richard Odusanya, sent a petition to
the National Assembly in which they
called for an investigation of a slew of
allegaitons they said they were ready to
substantiate.
On April 20, the two men also appeared
on SaharaTV and spoke, among others,
about issues of corruption and several
high profile killings during the Obasanjo
presidency, including those of former
Attorney General and Minister of Justice,
Chief Bola Ige and Chief Harry Marshal,
which were never solved by the police.
Nonetheless, Mr. Okpo, upset that Olatunji
had failed to give him “straight answers”
to his questions, instructed his faithful
deputy to extract a statement from the
reporter, who was then forced to open his
email on a computer to enable the SSS
identify some of the reports he has written
in the past.
He was also forced to fill out forms and to
write further statements, following which
he was handed over to the Principal Staff
Officer, and then fingerprinted and
photographed in a variety of postures.
As the night fell, the reporter was
returned to the office of the Deputy
Director, made to write another
statement, and then thrown into an
unlighted room on the ground floor of the
building. The room contained two men in
handcuffs.
The matter took a different turn thereafter
when Mr. Akinyemi and the chairman of
the NUJ, Wole Sokunbi came in and met
with Mr. Okpo in his office. When Mr.
Olatunji was brought into the room, the
powerful SSS boss asked if Olatunji, who
had not been charged to court, would like
the duo to “bail” him.
He was eventually released, but not until
he had been warned against his
“uncooperative and arrogant demeanour,”
and asked to return again to the SSS
office at 11.00am the following morning.
It is unclear at this point whether Mr.
Okpo, Mr. Yau Umar, or their PSO have
solved the security mystery they are
chasing, or whether they have yet invited
Chief Obasanjo to their office.
Calls to their office by SaharaReporters
were not returned.

Eko Atlantic: Ajumobi is commissioning, Fashola is commissioning, jonathan is delivering speech.

I love this democracy.

Eko atlantic! I no fit laugh abeg. Haha speech ke!!! Ok let try this maths together: a. Fashola is commissioning
B. Ajimobi is commissioning
C. Jonathan is delivering speech

Which of these statement are correct?
1. Fashola is progressing
2. Ajimobi is working and moving forward
3. Jonathan is sleeping and angry with opposition.
4. All of the above

Lol!!!

Sincere 9gerian: Fantastic. That is the only language those LIARS understand. Abati, pls give them more doses of their own medicine

I pity u bro! I hope u hav bin paid?

This explanation here is a blatant lie. Jang himself became a candidate a few hours before the election so when did "Jang contact you first". Mr. Mimiko, did you vote or not? Did Akpabio bring in a signed paper saying that Jang was a consensus candidate but that was rejected and led to votes being cast? If you want to be vice-chairman and both camps want you as you claim, would that not assure that you would win? With your experience under the rule of Obasanjo, no one imagined that you would join the camp of another President to harass and intimidate "opponents". Now that Ondo State people know that you are in the PDP, the Ondo State people who rejected PDP will also reject you. We are waiting for the local government election, see you then.

The Governor of Ondo State, Dr. Olusegun Mimiko, on Saturday, said he supported Governor Jonah Jang of Plateau State because he approached him to be his vice-chairmanship candidate at the election of the Nigerian Governors' Forum.

Mimiko said this in a statement by his Chief Press Secretary, Mr. Eni Akinsola.

Mimiko said he was surprised when the camp of Governor Rotimi Amaechi of Rivers State also picked him as its candidate for the same position without his consent.

The statement said, "Mimiko had earlier been approached by Jang's group to contest as the vice-chairmanship candidate and he agreed. He was surprised when he entered the venue of the election and saw his name on the list of Amaechi's camp also as the vice-chairmanship candidate.

"Confused by this development, Mimiko announced that he was stepping down as the vice-chairmanship candidate to Ameachi to avoid uproar since he was already in Jang's camp.

"Mimiko thought it wise then to step down from Amaechi's camp in the interest of democracy and fairness because it was Jang and not Amaechi, who approached him first."

Besides, the Ondo State governor said he and other governors made efforts to convince Amaechi on the need to make the process free, fair, transparent and credible, but that the pleas fell on deaf ears.

He said, "For instance, the election was to be conducted through a secret ballot arrangement and the sitting chairman refused to dissolve the house and allow a neutral body to conduct the poll.

"Apart from that, the way they carried out the entire arrangement suggested that Amaechi and his group had a predetermined agenda of some anti-Jonathan politicians which he was desperate to implement."

Mimiko said he and some governors walked out of the venue when it was glaring that Amaechi would declare himself as the winner of the election.

He added, "Why the confusion had yet to be resolved, the Director-General of the Governors' Forum came up with ballot papers which he distributed to members. But pro-Jang governors protested and walked out of the venue. There would have been uproar if that decision was not taken."

Mimiko said he read a communiqué on Saturday after a meeting with 18 of his colleagues in Abuja where he confirmed himself as the vice-chairman of the forum.

The statement added, "More than 18 governors would have attended the press conference addressed by Mimiko if some of them had not left Abuja before the notice for the press conference was sent out."

He said prior to the election, all governors from the North had adopted Jang as consensus candidate after Governor Yisa Yuguda had stepped down while the Peoples Democratic Party Governors' Forum also adopted Jang.

Mimiko said he was convinced that Ameachi's group was enjoying support from the opposition parties who were bent on dividing the NGF.

I was just lol wen I saw your post! So tell us if u ar d one that will decide for Ogun people.

Pls go get something better to say.

A committee of the House of
Representatives has determined that
Rivers State Governor, Chibuike Rotimi
Amaechi, did not break any laws in the
incidents that led to the grounding of a
state-owned Bombardier Aircraft by the
Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA).
The legislators stated that Rivers State
remained the real owner of the B700
Global Express Aircraft with Registration
Number N565RS with a valid insurance
cover that will expire in 2015.
The representatives also found there was
no truth to the claim by Nigeria’s aviation
agencies that the aircraft belongs to a
foreign country and has no valid papers.
These were some of the conclusions
contained in a report by the House
committee on Justice and Aviation. The
committee investigated the
circumstances that led to the
controversial grounding of the aircraft.
The 11-page report was jointly signed by
the House Committee Chairman on
Justice, Ali Ahmad, and his Aviation
counterpart, Nkeiruka Onyejeocha. The
House had composed the committee on
April 30, 2013 to probe the grounding of
the aircraft by the NCAA.
The committee sat on May 14, 2013 and
took testimonies from officials of the
NCAA, the Nigeria Aviation Management
Authority (NAMA), Aviation Minister, Stella
Oduah, as well as officials of Caverton
Helicopters and the Rivers State
Government.
The report stated, “The level of ineptitude
of NCAA is glaring in many respects:
failure to appreciate from a trust
agreement that an aircraft belongs to a
trustor-beneficiary even after their
attention is drawn to it and even as other
aircraft are registered in the name of the
same trustee; non-detection of an expired
flight clearance 24 days after the fact and
the detection was triggered by an
incident rather than as a matter of course;
even if the fact of falsification of
documents were true.”
The report added: “It was unacceptable
that NCAA did not detect this fact for over
six months; indeed NCAA boasted in a
letter of 29th April, 2013 that following
the incident it undertook a due diligence
of the status of the aircraft, but even then
it failed to determine the issue of
ownership and several others.
“Operational and other navigational
charges were received by NAMA and FAAN
and other agencies while operating the
aircraft and receipts issued without
raising alarm as to ownership of the
aircraft by Rivers State Government.
Part of the report also stated: “Perusal of
the Trust Agreement between Rivers State
Trustor and Bank of Utah Trustee would
have shown this fact of ownership; it is
distressing that NCAA and the Ministry
still fail or refuse to appreciate this simple
fact; but since the authorities did not
raise ownership issue with several other
aircraft having the name of Bank of Utah
Trustees, this allegation is in bad faith
and grossly unprofessional, as the owner,
Rivers State Government elected to
register the aircraft in the U.S. to save
money for the State and avoid
unnecessary bureaucracy.
“Rivers State Government, through
Caverton, applied to the Hon. Minister of
Aviation to import and operate the aircraft
in Nigeria but the application was not
consummated, and so it is being operated
in Nigeria as a foreign aircraft for private
use.
“As from 27 August, 2012 when it applied
on behalf of Rivers State Government to
import the aircraft, Caverton maintained
agency relationship with the Government;
although that relationship was abated
shortly thereafter with regard to
importation of the aircraft, other aspects
of the agency relationship continued
especially relating to applications for
flight clearance; however, all relationships
between the parties was brought to an
end by Caverton’s letter of denunciated to
NCAA dated 26 April, 2013.
“As owner and operator of the aircraft,
neither Rivers State Government nor its
officials forged or falsified any document
toward securing flight clearances or any
other license. Should top management of
Caverton deny transacting business with
Rivers State Government despite its
acquiescence of transactions between its
member of staff and the Government,
then its behavior smacks of administrative
laxity or negligence; alternatively, its
behavior lends credence to the assertion
that it was pressured to deny the
relationship.
“Caverton should be held accountable for
providing information that led NCAA to
ground the aircraft, contrary to provision
of the law;
“Rivers State Government operated its
aircraft with expired clearance between
2nd and 26th April, 2013; but several
other aircraft are suspected to be in
similar situation; isolation of Rivers State
Government for reprimand becomes
difficult to deny.
“Justifications for both the delayed start-
up in Akure and the continued grounding
of the aircraft in Port Harcourt amount to
taking an action and later shopping for
reasons: the faulty declaration of manifest
and failure to file flight plan ceased to be
a reason immediately the Director-
General of NAMA waived the infringement
and permitted the aircraft to depart
Akure, otherwise continuous citing
manifest and flight plan violations as
additional reasons for grounding the
aircraft has serious implications for the
Director-General; alleged fabrication of
documents by Rivers State Government
was unsubstantiated.
“Having overlooked the Akure violation,
the only justification known to law to
warrant regulatory action against the
aircraft is its operation with expired
clearance between 2nd and 26th April,
2013; however, NCAA botched the
opportunity to legally impose the sanction
as it failed to give a written notice to
Rivers State Government as required by
Section 35(5) Civil Aviation Act, Cap. C13
Laws of the Federation of Nigeria, 2004;
“The handling by NAMA and NCAA of this
violation and their response actions
further confirm the previous findings of
the Joint Senate and House Committee on
Aviation on the crash of Dana Aircraft that
the Ministry of Aviation exerts undue
interference on routine operations of
these agencies.”
The report suggested that the House
Committee on Aviation be mandated to
scrutinize the reason for rampant foreign
registration of aircraft by their owners and
to further investigate all private-use
aircraft operating in the country in order
to sanitize their operation and ensure
enforcement of the law.

Nigeria’s Agriculture University, FUNAAB, sacks professor, two other lecturers for plagiarism


The dismissals came on the heel over school-wide disciplinary exercise.

A professor and an assistant lecturer in the Chemistry Department of the Federal University of Agriculture, FUNNAB, Abeokuta have had their appointments terminated based on a allegations of plagiarism.

The professor, Janet Bamgbose, and the assistant lecturer, Akeem Bamigbade, were fired during the just concluded 76th statutory council meeting of the university which held two weeks ago. Mrs. Bamgbose was a Reader in the Chemistry Department prior to her dismissal.

The sack is coming about a month after another Nigerian university, the University of Calabar in Cross River State, sacked four lecturers also for plagiarism. Another was sacked for financial fraud.

“The academic staff dismissed for outright plagiarism include Dr Azubuike Iloeje and Dr Maurice Bisong of the Department of English and Literary Studies, Mr. Oden Ubi (Department of Marketing) and Dr Paulinus Noah of the Department of Linguistics and Communication Studies,” the Registrar of the Calabar University had said.

Two other lecturers from the Chemisty Department of the Agriculture University were demoted from Lecturer I to Lecturer II also based on alleged plagiarism.

According to an official release in the university bulletin, reference FUNAAB/VC/PRD.08/42 and dated May 10, 2013, the names of the demoted lecturers are Mojisola Nkiko and Ahmed Akinyeye.

The disciplinary exercise was extended to other departments in the school with a director at the Department of Works and Services of the University, Omolola Banjo, suspended from duty without pay for three months for alleged conduct prejudicial to discipline and good governance; while two Chief Technical Assistants, Vitus Chukwu and Oluwasina Akinbola of the same department, who were said to have engaged in personal trade and business without permission, were given warnings. A senior clerical officer of the Asset Department, Olalekan Adebisi, was dismissed for alleged non-remittance of journal page charges to the university’s journal account.

However, thirty-six lecturers’ promotions were also approved by the university authorities. The promotions were back dated, officially taking effect from September 30, 2011, October 1, 2011 and October 1, 2012 for various categories of lecturers.

O boy! You bad o......Ala wentin!!!

Good news!!! More action. Eko o ni baje o!!!

An insider will be a good candidate.

That is a question
dominating discussions n several quarters
both locally and internationally.
It became
prominent subsequent to the
announcement in March by the current and
10thGovernor, Mallam Lamido Sanusi that
he would not be seeking a second time.
Since then, there have been predictions
and speculations on who would succeed
him.

there is an array of bank chief
executives and top economist to choose
from. These include, Mr, Bisi Onasanya, MD/
CEO of First Bank, Mr. Segun Agbaje, MD/
CEO of Guaranty Trust Bank, Mr Alex Otti,
MD/CEO of Diamond Bank Plc and Mr.
Aigboje Aig-Imoukhoude, MD/CEO of Acess
Bank.

i have this problem with my baby car, in the morning, it took longtime to change from gear 1 to 2. after that, the gear select normally. but as soon as i leave the car for like say 1 to 2hrs, it takes some time to change again.
