OEPHIUS: Fifty seven Local Government Areas and Local Council Development Areas Chairmen may have to sacrificed their seats for going against Lagos State Governor, Akinwunmi Ambode, on his second term ambition, should the governor succeeded with a his leaked sacking plan of the council’s chairmen, which he had planned to carried out by Friday.
The governor has been suspected of sinister move immediately his second term plan was rejected and became public discussion, particularly after decision makers of his party, All Progress Congress (APC), cut down his hope on 2019 governorship election that may have had him return to office.
From The Guild finding, there was strong indication that the governor’s hope had all been exhausted, and that that could be the reason for his alleged plan to go down with set people believed to had caused his misfortune, making interventions from top members of the society not to prevail over the matter.
Should Ambode carry out the leaked sack plan of the 57 councils’ chairmen, their only crime would be because they were against their principal’s second term agenda and for also endorsing another anointed aspirant, Babajide Sanwo-olu, while he is still in power and plan to spend another term in office.
However, sources among the chairmen alleged that the governor was on sinister move which could have them go down with him since the party leaders do not want him to have another term in office.
They claimed that part of Ambode’s plan was to deprive them of the new month allocation, often comes through into into Join Account Allocation Committee (JAAC) and that the governor could lay them off before Friday.
One of the sources who spoke to our media organisation disclosed that the entire 57 chairmen had started reaching out to leaders of APC over the Ambode’s plan on learning of the move and that the action could be disastrous to democracy if he was not been called to order.
It would be recalled that the 57 councils’ chairmen were among first set of people who recently endorsed Sanwo-olu to be governor against Ambode whom they claimed had refused to run an all inclusive government.
Meanwhile, a close associate from the state house told The Guild that there was suggestion that the councils’ chairmen should be sent packing from office since they were against the governor.
He disclosed that, during a meeting at Astra Hotel in Ikeja on Monday, the the governor was advised to let the chairmen pay heavily for their actions and also be replaced by caretakers.
According to him, the governor might not go down alone since there is nobody on his side and had tried had to salvage the situation but failed.
“Ambode is facing re-election trouble and he has been told to go through primary alongside other contenders to test their popularity.
“Time has gone against any plan he has at hand because the primary election is just in five days and i do not think Ambode needs the sacking of those men at this time”.
With five days to governorship primary election in Lagos, 57 councils’ chairmen, 57 councils’ vice chairmen, 57 party chairmen, 377 wards chairmen, 377 councilors, 57 sacked executive secretaries, among others, had in the last two weeks endorsed Sanwo-olu, while Ambode was left unrecognized, with Governor Advisory Committee (GAC) members’ directive that all aspirants should go through primary election and test their popularity.

Dpharisee: I bought a tin of milk recently and looked at the ingredients and I saw palm oil as one of the contents, thats why I only buy FULL CREAM milk because most of the FILLED milk like Cowbell and Three Crowns is made up of soyamilk and palmoil.
Full cream is not even advisable for full grown adults.
The adults in my home take filled milk and the kids full cream.

bilms: ANN Presidential Aspirant, Olawepo Hashim will deliver $4trillion economy for Nigeria
Global Business Mogul and frontline presidential aspirant under the platform of Alliance for New Nigeria (ANN), Mr Olawepo Hashim has outlined his plan to create a $4trillion economy for Nigeria.
According to him, for Nigeria to get out of poverty, we need a $4trillion economy.
Currently, Nigeria’s GDP is a little above $400billion and when you have a small size GDP has we have to 180million Nigerians, there will be poverty, even if we have a saint in government and no cent is stolen, the size of the economy is too small to go round.
"In the years when we were excited about high oil price, Nigeria probably made less than $50billion from all those crude sells. In that same year in 2013, Disney World, a company that is marketing entertainment, cartoon, characters generated as much as $47billion". He said.
So, this brings us to the question, which presidential aspirant has the capacity to help Nigeria build a $4trillion economy and get us out of poverty?
The ANN Presidential Aspirant has outlined his plan to do so through a national economic development programme (nedp) in this video.

Suzzyyy: Hello Nairalanders! Plz help! I hv been scared and confused abt a risk I want to tk so I decided to share for advice.
Im 29 and I hv a boyfriend who is 33. We hv been happily dating for close to 3 years now, he once helped me financially in a good way with 100k when I had problem with my little business, then he was doing pretty fine with his business, I sell plastics and hez into cloth business. But somtin happened last 2 months, he had terrible problems with his business and lost almost everything including his shop and in a bid to salvage his situation he ended up owing many pple, when all these started he didn't tell me, thou hez a kind of person that likes handling his problem alone without disturbing or telling me which I don't like bcus it somehow makes me feel less important and useful to him, I got to know when he changed, his attitude, moods and everything changed, hez always disturbed, thinking and always visiting pple, he payed less concern and attention to me, don't even call and when I call, he will be in a haste to end it, I became confused, so I had to asked what was going on, he said nothing, I got upset and insisted he must tell me, he then opened up, I felt so bad and almost cried, since then I have been trying to maintain his upkeep and sometimes give him money which hez not comfortable with.
The problem now Is that im scared, he asked for a huge amount of money from me which is 700k, he wants to start all over again in his cloth business and also clear some debt, and I can only boast of 820k home and abroad as a business woman, i just feel he saw my account balance before asking for this, Im scared to loose the money and him too. I love this guy but im so scared of doing this, he helped me when I needed money, but this sacrifice is bigger than me, he showed and detailed everything he will be doing with the money, Im just confused to gamble with my life savings, I know I might sound ungrateful what if the business or our relationship crumble? Won't I be stranded and doomed? My business is not that strong and we all know how most of sacrifices like this ended for people. Is this kind of risk worth doing for a boyfriend
Plz advice me on what to do, plz.
Life is all about sacrifice,we all need someone to lean on and you are that shoulder now.
Give him half of your money and keep half to fall back on so your business don't crumble.
Remember whatever you give him now may never be returned,that's were you are making the sacrifice.

LoveToRead: Later that evening, I had another big surprise from madam. It was eight in the evening and I was watching news on the television when a car kept blarring its horn at the gate.
A re-run will cost another billions of tax payers money.
Buhari is a blood sucker and want to plunge this country into another civil war. His plans will fail, Nigerian are more united than ever to oust this demon called Buhari.
The electorate in Osun must not keep calm, this was a well earned victory and they are trying to subvert the will of the people.
