CANDIDATE of the Peoples Democratic Party
(PDP) in the August governorship election in
Osun State, Dr Iyiola Omisore, has refuted the
claim by former interim National Chairman of
the All Progressives Congress (APC), Chief Bisis
Akande, that he borrowed from their election
campaign funds in the1999 governorship
election.
Dr Omisore, in his reaction to an interview
granted by Chief Akande in our sister publication
on Saturday, stated that Chief Akande had
“merely concocted a big lie to cover his many
inadequacies.”
“I cannot imagine why an old man like him would
tell such a big lie,” Omisore wondered,
explaining that he asctually paid for the
expression of interest form that Akande used to
contest the election.
“I recall that myself and Chief Abiola Morakinyo
had paid N250,000 each for our nomination
forms before Chief Bola Ige asked me to step
down for Chief Akande and be his deputy. I can
tell you that it was my form that Chief Akande
used to contest. He didn’t buy any form. Not
many of them could afford that amount of
money at that time,” Omisore explained further.
According to the PDP chieftain, he was not
surprised that Chief Akande would bite the finger
that fed him.
“Judging from where he is coming from and the
political party he is in, telling such a big lie would
come naturally. But why he should continue at
his age is what is baffling. I believe there are still
many true leaders of Alliance for Democracy
(AD) around like Chief Moji Akinfenwa, our
chairman then; and Chief Morakinyo who would
not stand truth on its head and who will tell the
story of how some of us funded AD and election
of Chief Akande,” he said.
Also reacting to the interview, another AD
governorship aspirant in the state then, Chief
Abiola, decried the claim by Chief Akande, saying
the former ACN chairman lied.
“Though after I was rigged out of the primaries, I
left, I can tell you that it was only Omisore and
myself that paid N250,000 fee for the nomination
form. To my knowledge, Chief Akande did not
buy any form. Instead, he used the form already
obtained by Omisore as his own, based on the
instruction of Chief Bola Ige who wanted Akande
to be governor of the state.
“What happened in the party afterwards, I cannot
say because I went my own way.
“On who killed Bola Ige, Professor Wole Soyinka,
at the lying-in-state for Ige, said those who killed
Ige were in the gathering at the stadium. I recall
President Olusegun Obasanjo and other leaders
were there, but Omisore was not there as I
recall.
“Professor, as we all know, is not a frivolous
person. He does not talk without proof. That
should give you an idea of what and who killed
Ige. And I also don’t believe that person is
Omisore,” Chief Morakinyo said.
Also, the Financial Secretary of the AD at the
time, Ayotunde Olowofoyeku, while reacting to
the development, corroborated the claims of Dr
Omisore.
“It is wrong to let these old men consistently
change or try to alter recent history in our nation
for cheap political gains. I was an active
participant in the politics of the AD in its
formative years and was the party’s financial
secretary in Osun State.
“I know that Senator Iyiola Omisore was the one
who paid the N5 million for the registration of
the AD. We had pulled out of the All Peoples
party (APP) a few hours earlier in Abuja and had
only 24 hours before the deadline for party
registration. It was a new party made up of
mainly Afenifere and the Yoruba, the money had
to be paid within 24 hours, otherwise, the party
would not be registered.
“Chief Akande was economical with the truth
when he said he did not know if Chief Kofoworola
Bucknor took money from Omisore, He knows,
because that money had to be paid there and
then in Abuja before they could come back
home.
“As regards the claim of spending N50,000, Chief
Akande spent no money on the election, because
he had none. Here, I think he should be eternally
grateful to the children God gave him to nurture;
Senator Iyiola Omisore, my humble self and
many others too numerous to mention. We gave
him all we had, but all he had for us was to
disparage or try to maim us.
“We taxed ourselves and friends to get funds for
the campaigns. I got pictures of Chief Bola Ige
and Senator Abraham Adesanya from the
Concord press and solely designed and printed
all posters that were used for the campaigns in
late 1998 local government elections and in 1999.
“Members of my church choir, RCCG, Kingscourt,
Lagos, did all the campaign jingles that were
used and air time paid from Iyiola Omisore
Organisation (IOO)’s funds,” he said.
Olowofoyeku added that Chief Akande also lied
when he mentioned in the interview that Senator
Omisore was driven in his (Akande’s) car.
He said; “Chief Akande didn’t use any money to
buy petrol for his car because he didn’t have any.
“He knows that Chief Bola Ige did not provide any
car. From 1 December 1998 to September 1999,
he used my car, a metallic green Nissan Quest
that was driven by Uche, my driver, who was
later killed in an attempt to assassinate me at
Omi-Asoro in Ilesa.”

AGAINST the backdrop of widespread
speculations in the past few months that the
leadership of the All Progressives Congress (APC)
might be toying with a joint Muslim ticket for the
2015 presidential election, former Head of State
and leading APC presidential aspirant, General
Muhammadu Buhari (retd), has declared that he
is not opposed to such an arrangement.
Buhari made his position on the matter known in
an interview with an online medium, The Cable,
at the weekend.
The APC presidential aspirant, who recalled that
he had opted for Christian running mates,
namely Chuba Okadigbo, Edwin Ume-Ezeoke and
Tunde Bakare, in previous shots at the
presidency in 2003, 2007 and 2011, respectively,
said there was nothing wrong in a Muslim-
Muslim ticket, adding that the 2015 elections are
not about religion.
According to him, “The question of this Muslim-
Muslim ticket, although it was a long way from
Abiola and Kingibe (in 1993), all the same, I have
not absolutely closed my mind to picking a
Christian or Muslim as running mate, if I get the
ticket.
“I firmly believe that Nigerians, having gone
through what they have gone through, realise it
is not a matter of religion, but a matter of
Nigeria.”
Buhari, who averred that the idea of stealing
from and short-changing people in the name of
religion was the preserve of those he called
political confusionists, observed that Nigerians
elected the late Chief MKO Abiola and Baba Gana
Kingibe as president and vice-president
respectively during the 1993 presidential
election, even though both were Muslims.
He said: “Why did Nigerians line up and elect
Abiola and Kingibe, both Muslims?
“The late Joseph Tarka, in a clearly Roman
Catholic environment, brought Ibrahim Imam
from Borno, to his constituency to represent
Tivland in the Northern House of Assembly in
1961.
“This new phenomenon of religion is another
blackmail political confusionists in Nigeria are
bringing to the fore. I will tell you something.
Tinubu’s wife is a Christian, Governor Fashola’s
wife is a Christian, Governor Amosun’s wife is a
Christian, Bisi Akande’s wife is a Christian and
Governor Ajimobi’s wife is a Christian.
“For goodness sake, the children of these
political leaders in Nigeria were bred and
brought up by Christian mothers.
“You think those people, wherever they
participate, they will bring a religious issue?
What kind of people are we? Nigerians will
always bring something to cause confusion,
while we are trying to stabilise the system.”

Members of the terrorists group, Boko Haram have reportedly released the over 50 women and girls that were recently kidnapped from Waga Mangoro and Madagali, villages between Adamawa and Borno states.

Vanguard reports that this was made known in a telephone interview with villagers from their alleged hid-outs. The villagers, who said the exact number of the released captives, could not be ascertained hinted that about 45 girls were still being held by the sect members. However, relatives of some of the abducted women who were later released by the insurgents also told journalist in Yola that some of the girls have been turned to cooks while others were married off immediately to some of the sect’s members.

A relative to the one of the released women who did not want his name in print revealed that: “Initially, the insurgents captured 80 girls and women whom they later loaded into their vans and zoomed off into the bushes. Later in the night, the insurgents separated the elderly women from the girls and released the women, who are now languishing in the forest because they could not relocate the towns because they were razed down by the insurgents.”

The relative, who disclosed that they were confused because few hours after the alleged cease fire agreement between the Federal Government and Boko Haram insurgents were announced, the sect members continued to abduct more girls.

“We are at a loss about government’s insincerity on the whole issue and we urge them to rescue our daughters without further delay as we are ready to die searching for our missing ones,” the relative said.

Meanwhile, there was tension on Thursday, when news of the abduction of another 40 girls in Adamawa state broke after the earlier report of 60 women that were kidnapped from two towns in the state by Boko Haram.

However, these recent attacks have raised the questions if there was ever a ceasefire agreement between the Nigerian government and the Boko Haram as announced on October 17, by the presidency and the Federal Government.

It would be recalled that a bomb blast reported occurred in a popular bus station in Azare area of Bauchi State on Thursday, leaving at least 10 people dead.

Why are they rotating all these appointments within the same circle? Why would one person complete 4 or 8yrs as a political office holder and after some months he will be given another appointment after embezzling + enough bogus allowances from where he left. The worst part of it,to make job opportunities available like this is a problem for them. Who will help us in this country.
