Politics / Saudi King Abdullah Dies Aged 91 by blemon44(m): 12:30am On Jan 23, 2015
[b]King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia has died at the age of 90, bringing to an end the rule of the world's oldest monarch.
The king, who took control of the world's largest oil-producing nation in August 2005, will be succeeded by his 79-year-old brother, Salman.
The king had been unwell for some time, and was taken to the King Abdulaziz Medical City in Riyadh on New Year's Eve, for what the palace said was pneumonia.
King Abdullah, like his predecessor King Fahd and successor Crown Prince Salman, was a son of Ibn Saud, who founded modern Saudi Arabia in 1932.
The monarch is thought to have left behind four wives, seven sons and 15 daughters.
And the death of King Abdullah, seen as a reforming figure and moderate within the House of Saud, comes at a difficult time for the country of 29 million – the second largest in the Arab world, after Algeria.
Oil prices are plummeting and the country has seen increasing attacks from jihadis – possibly, for the first time, affiliated with Isil.
Furthermore, there are concerns about his successor's ability to rule the fractious family and keep control of the country.
"Prince Salman himself has had at least one stroke, and he's also been slowing down. This is pretty well accepted by everybody," said Simon Henderson, an expert on the Gulf at the Washington Institute for Near East Policy.
He told NPR: "How you actually describe that slowing down is a matter of debate. I've tended to think it is some form of dementia."
But the Crown Prince on Tuesday gave a speech to open a new session of the legislature, and outlined on the king's behalf the challenges facing the kingdom.
"This meeting comes in extremely sensitive and delicate international and regional conditions," he said, in a speech which focused on reassuring Saudis that their economic interests will be safeguarded despite the plunge in oil prices.
In a separate speech on state television, he continued with his theme, and said: "You cannot be blind to the tensions in the global oil markets. These are not new developments – and we have dealt with it in the past with a firm will and wisdom, and we will deal with the new developments in the same vein."
And he made a passing reference to the violence ravaging Syria and neighbouring Iraq, saying Saudi Arabia remains "an oasis of peace" despite turmoil around it.
The Crown Prince will take control immediately, and a funeral will be held within 24 hours.
It is thought likely that Prince Charles will attend, because he and King Abdullah were known to be close.
Prince Charles last visited Saudi Arabia in February – his 10th official trip to the country since he first toured the nation in 1986.[/b]

Politics / Buhari Is Not A Nigerian - Femi Fani-kayode! by blemon44(m): 5:24pm On Jan 22, 2015
[b]It seems where ever the wind blows we find Femi Fani-Kayode, and this time its clear to every Nigerian that he is doing the bidding of his master President Goodluck Jonathan.

Femi-Fani in an onslaught of verbal attacks has demanded that the presidential candidate Buhari “Withdraw From The Election Now And Report To The Nearest Police Station”.

“Buhari is not a Nigerian citizen, he is from Dogondoutchi Town in Dosso Niger Republic, he must be disqualified for contravening section 28 of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria”.

Chief Femi Fani-Kayode is the Director of Media and Publicity of the Peoples Democratic Party Presidential Campaign Organization.

The bigger question is: Was GEJ even right to appoint Femi Fani to speak for him?

It is arguable with Fani-Kayode’s given appointment if President Jonathan is really interested in fighting corruption.

Fani-Kayode is currently being prosecuted by the EFCC for alleged corruption.

It was claimed that Fani-Kayode stole N19.5 billion of the Aviation Intervention Fund but the courts case was thrown out for lack of evidence.

In 2008, Keyamo filed a bogus 47-count money laundering case on behalf of the Farida Waziri-led EFCC in which he claimed that Chief Fani-Kayode had laundered N200m, this was reduced from N200m to N99 on 40 counts of which 38 were recently thrown out.

“The remaining two counts, which represent N1m each, are to be defended on February 23rd and 24th.”

All this from a man, who only last year declared support for ODUDUWA REPUBLIC which calls for the divide of Nigeria[/b]

Politics / Maj General M.buhari’s WASC Result Is Not In Our Records – Army Official Release by blemon44(m): 12:29am On Jan 21, 2015
[b]Gentlemen of the Press, I am pleased to welcome everyone back from the Christmas and the 2015 New Year festivities. On behalf of the Chief of Army Staff, officers and soldiers of the Nigerian Army, I wish you all a happy and more fulfilling 2015. Since our last media briefing on 31 December, 2014, some issues relating to the Nigerian Army have occurred and this briefing is holding specifically to address them.
I will begin with the Major General Muhammadu Buhari certificate controversy. Gentlemen, let me state clearly that the Nigerian Army holds the retired senior officer in very high esteem and respect and would not be a party to any controversy surrounding his eligibility for any political office. Suffice to state that Major General Buhari rose steadily to the enviable rank of Major General before becoming the Head of State of our dear country in December 1983. The media hype on retired Major General Muhammadu Buhari credentials as well as the numerous requests made by individuals and corporate bodies to the Nigerian Army on this issue have necessitated that we provide the facts as contained in the retired senior officer service record. Records available indicate that Major General M Buhari applied to join the military as a Form Six student of the Provincial Secondary School, Katsina on 18 Oct 61. His application was duly endorsed by the Principal of the school, who also wrote a report on him and recommended him to be suitable for military commission. It is a practice in the NA that before candidates are shortlisted for commissioning into the officers cadre of the Service, the Selection Board verifies the original copies of credentials that are presented. However, there is no available record to show that this process was followed in the 1960s. Nevertheless, the entry made on the NA Form 199A at the point of documentation after commission as an officer indicated that the former Head of State obtained the West African School Certificate (WASC) in 1961 with credits in relevant subjects: English Language, Geography, History, Health Science, Hausa and a pass in English Literature. Neither the original copy, Certified True Copy (CTC) nor statement of result of Major General M Buhari’s WASC result is in his personal file.
I hope this explanation will put to rest the raging controversy surrounding the secondary school credentials of Major General Mohammed Buhari as it affects the Nigerian Army.
I will also seize this opportunity to make some observations on the recent CNN report titled ‘The Battle Against Boko Haram’, which was aired a few days ago. I believe we all hold the CNN in high esteem. However, CNN report on issues concerning kitting, equipment, medical treatment and corruption in the Nigerian Army is perhaps the best example of a media house show of bias, ignorance, poor journalism, unprofessionalism and handiwork of a sponsored documentary.
Let me start with kitting. It would interest you to know that there is no Army in the world where personnel do not purchase additional uniforms and kits to augment those officially issued to them. Accordingly, the Nigerian Army without fail issues uniforms and kits to its personnel periodically. Like other armies, the NA has over the years, established ordnance shops in all its barracks and cantonments where uniforms and kits are sold at subsidized prices to its personnel from allowances already provided in their pay slips.
Similarly, you will agree with me that the NA has a very functional health care delivery system in the country. There is no barrack or cantonment that does not have at least one Medical Inspection Room, Medical Reception Station or Medical Hospital. The NA fully subscribes to the National Health Insurance Scheme (NHIS) and this is functional in all its health facilities. Specifically, personnel in the North East have the best medical treatment in that the various health facilities in all the barracks and cantonments are well equipped. Notwithstanding this, personnel with extensive injuries are evacuated to the 44 Nigerian Army Reference Hospital Kaduna (44 NARHK), while others are promptly flown abroad for medical treatment. Therefore, issue of a soldier of the NA paying for treatment and drugs covered by the NHIS is absurd. The Nigerian Army’s undoubted operational gains in the North East of recent, have rubbished the claim of Boko Haram out-gunning the NA. The CNN would do well to beam its searchlight on the atrocities of Boko Haram terrorists against innocent and defenseless Nigerians rather than the NA.
Equally, the NA in the past had requested severally that any evidence of corruption in the NA should be reported to the appropriate authority. Till date, no such evidence has been forwarded but rather all we see and hear are sweeping statement of the purported corruption in the NA. In the case of Nick Robertson, his leading questions and introduction of the word corruption to the unknown person purported to be a soldier of the NA was most unprofessional and merely justifies a paid exercise. The CNN in the past have interviewed authorised personnel of other countries armies and not unauthorized hooded criminals to speak to the media. The CNN knows very well how to contact the relevant offices to clarify issues concerning the NA but chooses rather to conduct a clandestine interview in a kiosk with a faceless person and a masked individual who obviously know nothing about the NA.
Finally, the Nigerian Army wishes to state that it will remain focused on its mission to rid Nigeria of terrorism and insurgency. To that end, it has commenced the implementation of the extensive operational, administrative and logistical decisions reached during 2014 COAS Annual Conference. In no distant future, law abiding Nigerians will begin to see very positive results in terms of security, particularly in the North East and our dear nation generally. Before I depart, I once again seize this opportunity to reiterate the NA’s unalloyed loyalty and subordination to civil authority as presided over by His Excellency, President and Commander in Chief of the Armed Forces of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, Dr Goodluck Ebele Jonathan GCFR. The Nigerian Army also wishes to emphasize its adherence to the principles and respect of human rights in the discharge of its constitutional duties. It further calls on everyone to remain vigilant and report any suspected breach of the peace to security agencies.
Thank you and God Bless.[/b]

Death Wish On Buhari: Age Does Not Determine How Long One Lives, President Jonathan Tells Fayose
“It is important that we recognize the fact that age is not an indication of how long somebody will live,” said Mr. Jonathan’s spokesman. According to him, “We believe strongly that we must continue to show immense respect to the person of Buhari.” Even so, he added that it was “important to always raise question about facts. You know what these questions are and we will continue this raise them. “We do not wish him ill, we do not wish him dead, we wish him long life and we believe strongly that such sentiments can be aired by individuals, [but] certainly not in our name."

Politics / Nigeria2015: Ex-military Ruler, Babangida, Declares Support For Buhari by blemon44(m): 10:01pm On Jan 19, 2015
[b]Former military president, Ibrahim Babangida, on Monday declared his support for Muhammadu Buhari, the All Progressives Congress, APC, presidential candidate in the upcoming elections.
Speaking while receiving Mr. Buhari who visited him in Minna, Mr. Babangida said ‘’all of us will support you in this course to salvage this country’’.
He said that the APC candidate’s doggedness in sacrificing to salvage Nigeria would not be lost.
“I wish to congratulate members of the party for the honour of nominating my colleague, Gen. Muhammadu Buhari, as your presidential candidate in 2015 elections,” he said.
He said that he and Mr. Buhari fought the battle to keep Nigeria indivisible, adding that such traits were attributes of patriots.
Earlier, Mr. Buhari said that the APC would commence a salvation crusade in Niger, adding that the calibre of people in APC in the state was a testimony.
He thanked Mr. Babangida for the support and camaraderie he had enjoyed over the years and assured him that Nigeria was on the verge of change.
He said APC was set to take over the state with the calibre of the candidates presented for various offices and the quality of those that decamped from the ruling PDP.
Mr. Babangida had on December 27 called for support for President Goodluck Jonathan when the president visited him in Minna.
“What I will say is simple: The President means well for this country and he is working well for this country.
Anybody who means well for this country should support the President to make sure that Nigeria survives as a united country,” he had said.[/b]
