Jeromestark reminds me of a cousin brother who makes noise like he does. He didn't marry until the age of 49 because he was looking for a Virgin. He ended up marrying a package single Mum who claimed to be a virgin. Guess what was most embarrassing. After realizing that she wasn't a virgin on their wedding night, just to save face he started claiming that he met her as a virgin, that his dreams have come true. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

PoliticsAjaero, SERAP: Tinubu’s Regime Oppression Surpasses Military Dictatorship- Atiku by Bobloco(op): 6:32pm On Sep 10, 2024
A former vice president, Atiku Abubakar, has berated the federal government over the arrest of the President of the Nigeria Labour Congress, Joe Ajaero, by the Department of State Services, and the takeover of the Abuja office of the Socio-Economic Rights and Accountability Project (SERAP).

Vanguard had reported that Ajaero was arrested in the early hours of Monday by the Department of State Service (DSS) at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, Abuja. On the same day, DSS operatives laid siege to SERAP’s office in Abuja.

The 2023 presidential candidate of the PDP, in a statement posted on his verified X account on Tuesday, warned that “the level of oppressive control now imposed surpasses even the harshest days of military dictatorship”.

Atiku wrote: “The escalating assault on civil society and the media by the Bola Tinubu administration are profoundly disturbing. The level of oppressive control now imposed surpasses even the harshest days of military dictatorship.

“The recent arrest of Mr. Joe Ajaero, President of the Nigerian Labour Congress, en route to an official event, epitomizes this regime’s relentless campaign to intimidate and subdue organized labour.

“Just days prior, security forces detained a journalist, only to later claim it was a grievous error. What if the outcome had been fatal?

“Now, Tinubu’s regime extends its repressive grasp to encroach upon @SERAPNigeria, an action that stands as a grave affront to our democratic values. This siege is anathema to the principles of freedom and justice.”

Atiku called on Tinubu to focus security efforts on terrorists and bandits, not civil society.

“It is imperative that Tinubu and his security apparatus redirect their fervour and intimidation towards the actual perpetrators of violence — terrorists and bandits — who are inflicting immeasurable suffering upon the Nigerian people. -AA”

You refused to read the below because it doesn't support the lies, falsehood, and propaganda against Peter Obi of which you are paid to spread. 

Obi and Otti stated in the letter, “By March 2024, the Abure-led NWC organised a convention at Nnewi without first organising ward, local government and state congresses. This fell short of the standards and the spirit of the terms of settlement as stated above. In the light of all these, a leadership vacuum arose in the party. In like manner, the National Executive Committee membership got depleted leaving less than 10 members standing.”

PoliticsLP Crisis: Details Of Obi, Otti’s Letter To INEC Emerge by Bobloco(op): 1:53pm On Sep 10, 2024
The leadership crisis within the Labour Party has taken a dramatic turn as details of a letter sent by Peter Obi and Alex Otti to the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) have emerged.

The letter, dated September 6, 2024, requested INEC’s recognition of a 29-member interim committee, headed by Senator Esther Nnenadi Usman, to oversee party operations temporarily.

“You will recall that Labour Party had had a leadership crisis in recent times culminating in the de-recognition of the Abure-led National Working Committee (NWC) by INEC effective June 2024. This is sequel to the settlement brokered by INEC on June 27, 2022.”

The letter said the settlement was founded on the consent court judgement by Justice Gabriel Kolawole on March 20, 2018.

“A major part of the settlement states that an all-inclusive national convention, preceded by ward, local government and state congresses shall be convened not later than one year after signing the terms of settlement,” the letter said.

Obi and Otti stated in the letter, “By March 2024, the Abure-led NWC organised a convention at Nnewi without first organising ward, local government and state congresses. This fell short of the standards and the spirit of the terms of settlement as stated above. In the light of all these, a leadership vacuum arose in the party. In like manner, the National Executive Committee membership got depleted leaving less than 10 members standing.”

The letter explained, “Given the above scenario, the statutory executives of the party made up of the governor, deputy governor, and legislators, in addition to all surviving members of NEC, the leadership of organised labour, representatives of governorship candidates in the 2023 election and subsequent ones, presidential and vice presidential candidates in the 2023 election and other party leaders, met in Umuahia, Abia State, on Wednesday, September 4, 2024 and set up a caretaker committee to organise congresses and the national convention within a period not exceeding 180 days to fill the vacuum created by the expiration of the tenure of the erstwhile leadership of the party at all levels.”

The letter also listed other members of the committee representing critical stakeholders of the party.

They included representatives of the Nigeria Labour Congress, (NLC), Comrade Abdulwaheed Omar, Professor Theophilus Ndubuaku, and Comrade Chris Uyot.

According to the letter, the senate is being represented by Senators Victor Umeh, Neda Imasuen, and Ireti Kingibe, while the House of Representatives is represented by Hon. Afam Ogene, Hon. Seyi Sowunmi, Hon. Sunday Umeha, Hon. Donatus Matthew, and Hon. Esosa Iyawe

The former governorship candidates of the party were represented by Ken Pela (Delta), Gbadebo Rhodes-Vivour (Lagos), Jonathan Asake (Kaduna), and Edward Pwajok (Plateau).

The members of the state Houses of Assembly in the caretaker committee included Hon. Edosa Richard, Hon. Harrison Oghara, Hon. Augustine Okezie, and Hon. Clinton Amadi.

Representatives of the Trade Union Congress (TUC) in the committee were Mohammed Misau, Austin Jonah, and Sansa Omalara.

According to the letter, the other members of the caretaker committee are Edwin Bafte Sajo, Nike Oshola, Aishat Madijiem, Ugoeze Caroline Onwubiko, and Dominic Essien.

However, Julius Abure-led Labour Party, has rejected the committee, labeling it “illegal” and “unconstitutional”.

Abure challenged Otti to provide official communication from INEC supporting his claims of a leadership vacuum within the party.

PoliticsPeter Obi’s Aide Clears Air On LP Presidential Candidate Being Arrested By DSS by Bobloco(op): 12:51pm On Sep 10, 2024
Val Obienyem, the Media Adviser to Peter Obi, the presidential candidate of the Labour Party, LP, in the 2023 general elections, has debunked rumours making the rounds that his principal was arrested by the Department of State Services, DSS, at his home in Anambra State.


Obienyem, in a statement released on Tuesday, described the reports as false and baseless.

According to him, Obi was not even in Anambra State at the time of the alleged incident.

Obienyem said: “As of Saturday, Mr Obi was in Rwanda attending important engagements. He has since returned to Nigeria and is currently in Edo State, where he is actively involved in party and national matters.

“There was no DSS operation at his residence, and no arrest was made.”

PoliticsIs Protest Treasonable? - Punch Editorial by Bobloco(op): 3:24am On Sep 10, 2024
DOES the Bola Tinubu administration have a phobia of protests? The administration’s response to the 10-day August #EndBadGovernance protests and the developments trailing the demonstrations lend credence to the question. While half-heartedly conceding the constitutionality of protests, the government, through the security agencies, did its utmost to crush the demonstrations, or at the least take the sting off them.

In the Federal Capital Territory and many states, the government deployed the judiciary and police to stop the protesters. Tear gas, hot water cannons, and live ammunition were used against them. Amnesty International said 13 people were killed; other accounts said as many as 31 persons died, while many were arrested.

To cap it, 10 of the arrested protesters were charged with treason on September 2! The hearing on this begins on September 11.

So, is protest treasonable?

Treason is a weighty charge. It carries the death penalty. Colonialists and slave owners made a meal of it when they wanted to crush dissent or anything they deemed as such. The charge has, however, become old-fashioned and is rarely applied.

The government tried Joseph Tarka and Obafemi Awolowo for treason. The former was acquitted for lack of evidence, the latter jailed for 10 years, but those were in the heady days of politics of the ’60s. Student union leaders had been charged for treason for organising protests under the military.

Fifteen months into his tenure, Tinubu is cracking down on protesters and seems to be seeing treason everywhere. A Briton, Andrew Wynne, and two Nigerians are accused of plotting to topple his government. Labour leader, Joe Ajaero, who has led the NLC on half-hearted protests and strikes, was invited by the police twice for questioning over alleged criminal conspiracy, terrorism financing, and treason, among other charges.

Essentially, Tinubu is creating the impression of attempting to cow Nigerians and prevent them from expressing their discomforts caused by his policies, questionable priorities, and high cost of governance. He is drawing from the playbook of repressive regimes, a dangerous attack on democracy.

The same Tinubu who burnished his political CV with public protests is now leading an assault on protesters. So, when is protest lawful, constitutional, and healthy, and when is it treason?

By towing this path, the President could aggravate the boiling tensions. If he is hell-bent on suppressing protests, free speech, and dissent, he will drive those who disagree with him underground. And the peace and comfort he seeks for himself and his administration will elude him. He will find himself fighting terrorists and insurgents on the one hand and underground combatants on the other.

The August protests tagged ‘10 days of rage’ were, according to the organisers, against bad governance and sweeping hunger. The protests turned violent in a few places, culminating in the destruction of property and looting. In the North, Russian flags were held aloft on the streets. This is concerning.

Urging a foreign country to take over another country is unreasonable and unacceptable. No country should be invited to destabilise another under whatever guise or disguise. The best way to stop those acts is to probe them painstakingly and comprehensively.

The organisers of the August protests have served notice of another one tagged ‘Fearless in October.’ Rather than see it as an opportunity to take off from where they left off in August, security agents should dust up their manuals on how to manage public protests without spilling blood or breaking a limb like in other climes.

Better still, Tinubu should correct the errors that threw more Nigerians into multidimensional poverty, which led to the protests in the first place.
