Watery response.

Why is Sen Grace Brent's picture not used for this publication?

Precious is the star actress in this show, and I assume its the same reason other publications used same. Btw na una type go still comment if Senator Bent do pass laidis

Permit me to thank family, friends, honourable and distinguished members of the parliament, concerned Nigerians and the general public, who have made spirited and frantic solidarity efforts, to stand by Senator Grace Folashade Bent, on the occasion of a recent publication, which was patently intended to defame and denigrate her.





This publication, which was at the behest of one Ms. Precious Chikwendu has been making rounds on the internet and diverse social media platforms.





As a civil and law abiding citizen of Nigeria, the distinguished Senator immediately reported the matter to the Police, and investigation is ongoing.




For the records, a swift report had to be made to the relevant enforcement agency, because the publication alleged that the distinguished Senator was after the life of Ms. Precious Chikwendu.





This is a very weighty allegation of assassination tendencies and intendment.






The publication also alleged that Senator Grace Bent was out to pervert the course of justice by making efforts at muscling Ms. Precious Chikwendu to abandon her child custody suit.





This is another bold allegation of criminality and disregard for the rule of law which no citizen of Nigeria who knows his / her onions would be mute over.






Lastly the publication falsely alleged that the distinguished Senator is on an errand for Chief Femi Fani-Kayode and that they will together abusively activate the machineries of enforcement agencies against Miss Precious Chikwendu.





As earlier noted a complaint has been submitted for investigation bearing in mind that the publication was primarily meant to incite the public against the distinguished Senator and to criminally damage the reputation she has built over the years.




Senator Grace Bent is a mother to many and a grandmother who appreciates family values and mutual respect for all and sundry.





Her interface with Ms. Precious Chikwendu is not in any way significant, and is limited to about only two occasions.




This is the more reason it became imperative to lodge the complaint, because the suggestion that the Senator wants to murder her is dangerous, inexplicable and unfathomable.





Unfortunately, the witness referred to in the said publication is Mrs Binta Sambo Dasuki, of whom Col. Sambo Dasuki (her husband), and the husband of Senator Grace Bent, Chief Jackson Bent, have been very good friends and were military course mates for several decades.







These are relationships that have been maintained for several decades that the publication was carefully designed to prejudice.




Similarly, Senator Grace Bent and Chief Femi Fani-Kayode, the former Minister of Aviation who was once married to Precious Chikwendu, have been friends and political affiliates for many years, with mutual respect for each other.






Friends don’t deny each other, when they go through stormy waters.





Her utmost respect for the dignity of the Court, will not in the remotest terms, allow her to interfere with judicial process or the course of justice, whether in the custody case involving Chief Femi Fani–Kayode's children or any other person.





Finally, Senator Grace Bent is consulting with her team of lawyer and will not hesitate to seek appropriate redress against the wrongs meted against her, both in law and equity.



Friends and family are encouraged to be at peace, and avoid insalubrious comments, which may interfere with the ongoing investigation, and other civil actions which may be initiated, at the time appropriate.





God bless you all.





God bless you all.

The President of Nigeria, Muhammadu Buhari was billed to give a speech at the Global Education Summit in London when news of allegations of fraud preferred against Nigeria’s top celebrated Cop, DCP Abba Kyari, filtered in.

Another national embarrassment was spreading like wildfire, one would say. This time a top cop has been indicted in a world-class fraud case being investigated by the United States federal Bereaux of Investigation, FBI, of which a Nigerian has already been arrested, detained and standing trial.

While the President was giving his speech at the education summit, even though there were questions surrounding his academic qualifications required by law to contest the seat of the president in Nigeria, News of a monumental fraud involving two Nigerians- one a top cop, the other a celebrated social media star – was making rounds around the world including the venue of the education summit where president Buhari was addressing many world leaders who had “certificate to show”.

As usual, many African leaders are used to being without shame; while their home is dirty they junket the world in well starched “Agbada.”

The President who rode to power on the back of anti-corruption campaigns must have been ashamed at such embarrassing news while at a global event addressing world leaders if he is “aware of the news”.

Many Nigerians, though hopeless on the battle against corruption, still want to see the end to corruption allegations preferred against high profile Nigerians – at least the president promised them he would fight corruption if voted for.

Abba Kyari, unlike many other corruption cases swept under the proverbial carpet, is a litmus test to the administration of President Buhari; the United States, a big brother and ally, is leading the investigation.

Possers are: Will Aso Rock dares refuse to dance to the beats of White House? Will the presidency in their usual character choose not to answer many questions apparently begging for answers on a case like this? Many don’t think so. The stubborn boy at home would like to behave himself when he needs dinner after a worst economic outing.

Poor Abba Kyari, he might be used to straighten a weakened relationship, a small dot after all and be treated in the language “he understands” by simply granting the wishes of the paymasters. Stubborn boy he wants to tarnish our image, some would have muttered!

But should we really sell our very best for a parcel of morsel just at the bark of foreign power? Does he really deserve to be exposed to international cruelty? I don’t think so, I believe DCP Abba Kyari deserves to be protected by the Nigerian authorities. He should be investigated by the Nigerian Anti-corruption agencies, if possible in public trial for the world to see – that is fair enough. but to hand him over to foreign prosecutors is the height of weakness and unfair reward to his outstanding services to the motherland.

But beyond this, not allowing transparent investigation of the embattled super Cop and full cooperation with the foreign investigators on the corruption case would also further make a mockery of President Buhari’s anti-corruption fight – This is a test Buhari must pass.

Desmond Uwadiae used N200 to win a SUMEC FIRMAN (2.5KVA) GENERATOR worth

As a university lecturer in Nigeria, the quality of life you live can be laughed at. And if you want to change that, here’s something interesting you’d love.

Firstly, the salary you’re paid as a lecturer in Nigeria is nothing to write home about. Not only that, the state and federal government sometimes decide to hold your salary for no good reason.

How are you expected to feed your families, pay your bills and even keep a roof over your head if they hold up to six months of your salary?

The Nigerian government doesn’t care about how you live as long as these greedy politicians are lining up their pockets with the nation’s funds and sending their kids abroad to study instead of subjecting them to the God-forsaken environment they've created for the Nigerian student and lecturers.

This neglect by the Nigerian government both on the state and the federal level continues to lower the standard of living for a hardworking lecturer like you. And basic living conditions like being able to afford simple home appliances and tools that will make your life easier are difficult to get.

But if you’re sick and tired of this and would like to make your life a bit easier, here’s a question for you.

● How would you like to win home appliances like toasters, blenders, microwaves, etc., and cash prizes for a fraction of the price?
● How would you like to enjoy the comfort that owning some basic tools brings to your life and family?

If you answered yes, then you're in luck because there’s a simple lottery service that allows unappreciated university lecturers like you to gain an upper hand and win incredible prizes.

This service is called iAuctionX. They upgrade the lives of lecturers through a series of Raffle Draw Auctions of essential items for as low as a fraction of the cost price.

The amazing thing about this lottery system is that it’s extremely easy to play. All you have to do is:
1. Register for free
2. Add Funds to your eWallet through their secured platform.
3. Participate in any of the lottery auctions.
Simple, right?
You have the opportunity to win lots of free gifts and cash prices with very little money.

Lecturers like yourself are cashing out from this system and a smart person like you will jump on the bandwagon immediately and seize the opportunity.

For instance, Desmond Uwadiae used N200 to win a SUMEC FIRMAN (2.5KVA) GENERATOR worth N119,000 plus a cash prize of N23,380. Abiola Oreoluwa won N50,000 cash, and Olaitan Ayomikun won a used Toyota Corolla worth N2,500,000 plus a cash prize of N14,070.
Seeing these amazing gifts being won by lecturers like you should have your mouth watering for a piece of the action.

On the afternoon of Thursday, 17th of May, 2 ordained ministers and over 20 students of Basic Certificate Course (BCC) class of June posed for a photo session to commemorate the conclusion of Principles of Divine Health, a course specially designed to gain insights on the fundamentals for accessing total health. They were reacting to the last class by Pastor Ugbede Ndubuisi who gave the most comprehensive teaching on Characteristics of Divine Health.

Hundreds of students, church Pastors from other religious denominations, as well business owners and white collar professionals have gone through the Ishaga Campus of Word Of Faith Bible Institute (WOFBI) at Franklin Adejuwon- Sesi Busstop.

PLEX for Nairaland

It’s only a 43-year-old novice President like Emmanuel Macron of France that can take a hot slap on the right cheek and go back home to sleep. That can never happen in the Feudal Republic of Nigeria. This oyinbo people sef! Are they weird or wayward, or both?

Last Tuesday, a 28-year-old French citizen, Damien Tarel, publicly held President Macron close to himself with his left hand and planted a deafening slap on the President’s left cheek with his right hand, t-t-w-w-a-a-i-i!!! Macron must have seen presidential stars at midday as the slap landed and echoed far in the city of Lyon.

When taken to court, Tarel said the slap was Macron’s reward for representing ‘very neatly the decay of our country’, and the court, in turn, rewarded Tarel with four-month imprisonment and a 45,000-euro fine. Na wa for ndi beke o!?

The maximum sentence for slapping the President of France is just three years in an ultra modern jail that’s better equipped and more secure than all of Nigeria’s public institutions, but Tarel got only four months out of the maximum 36 months. Imagine?

Hear Macron, the President who accommodated the dirty slap, “It's not such a big deal to get a slap when you go toward a crowd to say hello to some people who were waiting for a long time.”

Haaa! You can never understand these oyinbo people! Someone slaps a president, gets a bail and the lightest of sentences, and the President says nothing spoil? Dis one shock me o! E no shock you?

If that happened in Nigeria? Ha, Ogun Lakaye Osinmale ooo! The Igbo and Yoruba gods of thunder, Amadioha and Sango Olukoso, will reincarnate live at the scene, spitting thunder, lightning and brimstone. Forever, no grass will grow at that scene!

Demons will descend on Damien the son of Tarel, who would instantly arrive at heaven’s gate with his body parts such as teeth, eyes, ears and right hand packed in a ‘nylon’ bag hanging around his neck. Slap who!? What are you talking ke? No mistake pepper for powder o.

Also, many innocent victims killed by stray bullets at the scene would accompany Tarel to heaven’s gate with some of them belching teargas while some others would have their spinal cords sticking out like the malfunctioning hands of an unstuck wall clock.

There was no slap at the Lekki tollgate on October 20, 2020. But there were bullets and blood after a protest by harmless flag-clutching Nigerian youths, who were over 700 kilometres away from Aso Rock, the official castle of Nigerian President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari (retd.).

Conscienceless, the dictatorship headed by Buhari and his deputy, Professor Yemi Osinbajo, unleashed security agents on the protesting youths, some of whom were dispatched to their early graves with their green-white-green flags dripping with blood.

By demanding an end to corruption and the enthronement of good governance, the youths had committed a sacrilege punishable in the Nigerian state by death. By calling on the Buhari-Osinbajo regime to wake up from eternal slumber and check the country’s slide into anarchy, the youths earned one-way tickets to their graves.

But if there was a Lekki tollgate in France, funds generated thereof would not be enshrouded in everlasting controversy. French is a romantic language. I think they would call their Lekki tollgate, ‘Tollgate Du Leqqui’. And French gendarmes would stay meters away from the protesters and watch as French youths exercised their human rights.

The over 200 years old French democracy sits on the shoulders of the young President Macron. Nigeria’s unbroken 21-year-old 4th Republic sits on the weak shoulders of olden President Buhari.

Please, don’t get me wrong; old age isn’t a curse. I mean, accurate old age isn’t a disease. Indeed, the wisdom that accompanies old age becomes a blessing to generations if the geriatric doesn’t take on tasks beyond his physical and mental capacities.

There are world leaders who, in their old ages, still exhibit profound mental acuity. Examples of such leaders are American President, (78), his Russian counterpart, Vladimir Putin, (68), Israeli Prime Minister; Benjamin Netanyahu, (71), and the King of Saudi Arabia, Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud, who is 85 years old, among others.

These are leaders with genuine ages. They are leaders whose mental outputs bespeak their true ages. But the same cannot be said of President Buhari who honestly disclosed in December 2017 that he doesn’t know his real age.

In his typical mishmash manner of answering questions, the President had said, “I am thinking I am 75. I thought I was 74 but I was told I was 75.” Thinking 75. Thought 74. Told 75: Imagine the distorted thought process? And upon the shoulders of this President rests the task of reinventing a nation of 200 million people? Can the blind lead the sighted?

Particularly, the clueless manner with which Buhari answers questions during media interviews could be a pointer suggestive of the possibility that the President could be far beyond the 78 years he adopted as his official age.

The characteristic disconnection of Buhari’s answers from questions asked during interviews is worrisome. I had exposed this cavity in one of my recent articles.

But, going by the worsening of this ever-present trend, I began to suspect that Buhari could, after all, be an octogenarian, a nonagenarian or a centenarian - given the fact that his birth was not documented - just like his secondary school claim.

Answering questions from some handpicked Villa-familiar journalists on Arise TV last week, President Buhari, again, revealed a mind chained to tribalism, ransomed by nepotism, and completely out of depth about democracy.

I was alarmed that the Buhari-Osinbajo regime of the 21st Century is still giving thought to revamping ancient grazing routes used when the total population of Nigeria was barely 50 million.

This Fulani President, who has persistently made a case for nomadic Fulani herdsmen to be allowed to graze their cattle on Middle Belt and southern farmers’ crops, didn’t say a word of commiseration when herdsmen killed many people in the Igangan community of Oyo State, last week.

Because he’s involved, Buhari, the Life Patron of Miyetti Allah Cattle Breeders Association of Nigeria - the umbrella body of all herdsmen in the country - has also threatened to deal ruthlessly with Biafran agitators, closing his eyes to the atrocities wreaked by his Fulani folks.

Till date, no herdsman has been prosecuted and found guilty in the southern part of the country by the Buhari regime.

During the interview, Buhari vouchsafed his regime’s claim to baseless integrity, telling Nigerians that his lopsided appointments were based on competence, experience and years of service.

No, Buhari didn’t forget that his feudal regime had technically retired 70 southern Army generals with the appointment of the new Chief of Army Staff, Major General Faruk Yahaya, from Sokoto, who was picked way down the ladder of military seniority.

He only stuck to his guns on talking points in which barefaced lies couldn’t suffice, and employed sophistry to mask the atrocities of his inept government against the Middle Belt and the southern parts of the country.

For self, Buhari outlawed Twitter. For kith and kin, he retires 70 serving generals, bringing their careers to an abrupt, unplanned end.

For Buhari, experience, service and competence are nothing: Tribe is everything. This is the promised CHANGE. A-P-C!
