Indications emerged last night that the Federal Government may create two new states, and one of the beneficiaries of the additional state will be the Southeast region.

It was gathered authoritatively that the Southeast is to be considered an additional new state, because the geopolitical zone has only five states, and is greatly at a disadvantage if compared with the other geopolitical zones in the country.

According to a source from the Presidency, “President Jonathan believes in equity and fairness. I think his administration is favorably disposed to the creation of one or two states to address obvious imbalance.

“One of the states might be from the Southeast, which is the only geopolitical zone with five states. The other five zones have six states, with the exception of the Northwest with seven states.”

Besides, the source added that President Goodluck Jonathan is seeking for the amendment of 1999 constitution, particularly the area of local government having joint accounts with state governments.

“We want to ensure autonomy for local governments, especially on the need for the abolition of Joint Accounts. Most of the 774 local government areas in the country have become appendages of the state governors.

“The administration of President Jonathan is disturbed that there is no democracy at the local government level, let alone good governance. This is a vital tier of government.

“Also, Nigerians should expect fundamental reforms in the justice sector, especially access to justice, quick dispensation of justice and criminal justice reforms.” the source said

timbros: wow! Congrats Chioma!

I never knew u are a police officer now...

Na wao

Family members of the celebrated alleged man-eater, Clifford Orji, who died three weeks ago, may have rejected him even in death.

This is because nobody has come to claim his body.

Orji died after 13 years of awaiting trial in Kirikiri Maximum Prisons, Lagos, and his body was deposited at the Isolo General Hospital mortuary.

An authoritative source at the hospital, who spoke on the condition of anonymity, told Sunday Sun that Orji’s body was brought to the hospital by prison officials.

However, since then, neither the family members nor the prison officials have come to check on it.

The source said the hospital authorities have been waiting for whoever would take responsibility for the corpse.

He told Sunday Sun that there had been similar cases where family members refused to claim their dead ones and after a period the hospital management procured necessary documents from the law courts, Ministry of Health and other relevant authorities to bury the abandoned corpses.

The source said: “But in the case of Clifford Orji, our hands are tied. We are patiently waiting to see what the government would do because, as it is, nobody is willing to claim the body.”

The senior official said though the hospital has symbiotic relationship with the Prisons and the Police, it would not have accepted the body of such a controversial person.

However, when contacted, a senior management member of the Prisons, who did not want his name in print, said the Nigerian Prisons Service did not do anything wrong by depositing Orji’s body in the government hospital.

The prisons official said: “The police charged Orji to court and the court in question gave us Clifford Orji to keep for the government, which we did for 13 consecutive years.

“When he eventually died, we could not have buried him.

“So we have to give it to the government hospital to keep for the government.”

He confirmed that during the 13 years the late Orji was in prison custody awaiting trial, nobody came to identify with him.

The prisons official also told Sunday Sun that with his death, the prisons had washed its hand off Orji’s case.

It would be recalled that Orji died three weeks ago after a brief illness.

He gained national attention following allegation that he killed and ate human beings and sold their parts to ritual killers.
