The only way APC can gather block votes from those region is to substitute yemi Osibanjo with an Igbo-man

PoliticsMagu To Remain Acting EFCC Chairman As Presidency Declares ‘full Support’ by comos(op): 9:37am On Apr 12, 2017
The presidency on Tuesday gave the clearest indication yet that it would not succumb to the Senate and remove Ibrahim Magu as chairman of the anti-graft EFCC.
The Senate recently refused to screen presidential nominees for the position of the resident electoral commissioners, saying it would not do so until Mr. Magu is removed as Acting EFCC Chairman. The Senate had twice rejected the president’s request to confirm Mr. Magu.

But speaking at an interview with PREMIUM TIMES and other journalists and activists on Tuesday night, Vice President Yemi Osinbajo said Mr. Magu enjoys the confidence of he and the president.

“I’m fully in support of Magu as the EFCC Chairman just as the president is…” Mr Osinbajo said.

Speaking on the Senate rejection, the vice president said “it is up to the Senate to make their judgement. If our candidate is rejected, …, we can represent our candidate.”

The Senate, while rejecting Mr. Magu the second time had said it would no longer consider him if his name is sent again by the president.
But Mr. Osinbajo gave the clearest indication yet that Mr. Magu may remain in acting capacity as EFCC Chairman for the duration of the Buhari administration.

PoliticsRe: BREAKING: Buhari Has Promised To Hand Over To Me In Peace – Okorocha by comos: 8:07am On Apr 12, 2017
kingzizzy:
What Okorocha does not seem to know is that APC is what it is because it fielded Buhari. It was the act of fielding Buhari as its flagbearer that delivered the Northern votes needed to defeat GEJ.

Is anybody fooling themselves that if a Southerner such Tinubu had been fielded, APC would have gotten the Northern votes?

So come 2023, APC will have to field a Southerner since it cant carry on forever fielding Northern candidates. When APC does this, it will lose Northern support.

Rochas is banking on the sentiment that APC will decide to field an Igbo candidate in 2023. But their is no guarantee of this, infact, I forsee a situation where either Tinubu or Osibanjo is fielded. That might leave Okorochas ambition dead in the water for another 16 years
Osibanjo might not get the vice presidential candidate in 2019 election because of the numerous south east politicians who has decamped to APC .

The APC I suspect will give the vice presidential ticket to south east in order to get block votes from the south-east/south-south who are more than twice the south west.

PoliticsPDP: Oduah, Ukachukwu, Obi, Others Boycott Sheriff’s Anambra Rec. Meeting by comos(op): 8:38am On Apr 11, 2017
ENUGU—Former Governor of Anambra State, Mr. Peter Obi, yesterday boycotted a reconcilatory meeting moderated by the embattled National chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Senator Ali Modu Sheriff, for different factions of the party in Anambra state.

Other stakeholders of the PDP in Anambra state that conspicuously stayed away from the meeting held in Enugu were, Chief Nicholas Ukachukwu, Senator Stella Oduah representing Anambra north senatorial district, other PDP members of the National Assembly from the state, among others.

A prominent leader of the party in the state, Chief Chris Uba was however present at the meeting with a factional chairman of the party in the state, Ejike Oguebego.

Also present at the parley were the Deputy Governors of Enugu and Ebonyi states, respectively.

Announcing the resolution of the meeting, Sheriff said a reconciliation committee to unite factions of the party will be set up when he gets to Abuja.

He stated that Enugu was the best choice for the meeting to ensure that peace reigns in Anambra PDP.

Sheriff said their target was to win the coming governorship election in Anambra state by November this year.

“Why we are here is to make sure that everything would be normal and we will win all the positions in Anambra’s next election”, said Sheriff,” he said.

He promised that those elected during the party primary elections at the grassroots would be recognised as the candidates, pointing out that his administration will not change any body elected at the grassroots.

“It is true that the problem is the Wadada Plaza and I am promising you that my administration will not allow such to happen. Candidates elected at the grassroots would be recognised at the National level”, he said.

Deputy Governor Enugu State, Mrs. Cecilia Ezeilo lauded Anambra PDP for coming together under one umbrella of the great party “PDP” and urged them to win all the major position in the next election.

PoliticsNiger Delta Indigenes To Get Oil Blocks To Douse Tension by comos(op): 7:51am On Apr 11, 2017
To douse tension in the oil-rich Niger Delta, the Federal Government plans to award to indigenes of the region marginal fields’ oil blocks abandoned by the oil majors as being not commercially viable.

The plan is in line with the government’s larger objective of reducing major incidents of restiveness to about 90 per cent by next year. Over the years, there have been agitations over oil resource ownership, which have become intense with allegations that about 90 per cent of northerners own the oil blocks awarded in the country.

If the plan is implemented, the ownership structure of the nation’s petroleum assets will not only begin to change, but also empower the host region, which has for decades suffered economic deprivation and environmental degradation on account of these resources.

The Minister of State, Petroleum Resources, Ibe Kachikwu, who disclosed this yesterday in Lagos, said the plan was part of the larger “stability incentive scheme” under “a harmonised holistic development plan for the Niger Delta.”

Expatiating on the plan, Kachikwu said: “This will include creating stability incentive schemes – jobs, investments, contracting opportunities for the zone, and the use of marginal fields’ allocations to state governments and indigenes to help reduce tension and get buy-in without excluding the rest of the country.”

CultureOba Of Benin Gets 117-Year-Old Tortoises As Gifts by comos(op): 9:45am On Apr 10, 2017
The Oba of Benin, His Royal Majesty, Oba Ewuare II, on Saturday received as gifts two tortoises said to be 117 years old.

The Oba received the tortoises when he visited traditional rulers in the Edo North senatorial district.

He was received at the palace of the Otaru of Auchi, His Royal Highness, Aliyu Momoh, Ikelebe III, in the Etsako West Local Government Area of the state.

During the visit, Oba Ewuare II called on traditional rulers in Edo State to promote measures aimed at conserving the environment and encouraging forest regeneration.

He urged the traditional rulers in the area to support his initiative on youth empowerment and job creation.

He stressed the need to key into the agricultural policies of the state government, by making land available to investors and encouraging the youths to embrace agriculture to boost food production.

Oba Ewuare II said, “The state government is partnering investors to provide incentives for investors to boost agriculture and create employment.


“Encourage your youths to take advantage of this initiative.

“We are taking steps to restore sanity to our villages and towns by stamping out activities of community development associations. Their activities have been criminalised. Support this crusade and stamp them out of your domains.”

Oba Ewuare II, who said Edo North would continue to be blessed with good weather, expressed optimism that the people would be rewarded with good harvest this year.

In his remark, the Otaru of Auchi pledged the support of other traditional rulers in Edo North for the Benin monarch.

He also urged the Oba to lead the advocacy for the roles of traditional rulers to be captured or specified in the country’s constitution.

PoliticsOutrage As Buhari Sidelines Minister, Names Culture, Tourism Officials by comos(op): 8:55am On Apr 07, 2017
There is outrage in the nation’s culture and tourism sector at the manner President Muhammadu Buhari appointed new heads of agencies and parastatals last weekend.

Stakeholders feel that Buhari failed to follow due process in announcing the appointment of the five new chief executives by the presidential spokesman, Femi Adesina, instead of the office of the Culture Minister or Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF).

A statement by Adesina named one-album singer, Tar Ukoh, as Artistic Director of the National Theatre and National Troupe of Nigeria while the sacked former Director General of the Nigerian Tourism Development Corporation (NTDC), Otunba Segun Runsewe, emerged chief executive of the National Council for Arts and Culture (NCAC).

PoliticsDefend Yourselves Against Herdsmen, Yoruba Leaders Tell South West Residents by comos(op): 8:29am On Apr 05, 2017
The Deputy Chairman, Yoruba Unity Forum, Archbishop Ayo Ladigbolu, has asked the people of the South-West to defend themselves with anything at their disposal to stop the incessant attacks by the Fulani herdsmen in the region.

Ladigbolu said this in an interview with journalists on Tuesday in Ile-Ife, Osun State, after his condolence visit to the Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi, at the monarch’s palace over the communal clash between Yoruba and Hausa in the town.

The retired cleric explained that self defence had become imperative since the government had abdicated its responsibilities to the citizens who were being oppressed and terrorised every day by the rampaging herdsmen.

While berating the silence of the Federal Government on the atrocities being committed by Fulani herdsmen, Ladigbolu argued that governors in the South-West were not doing enough to defend their people or to stop the herdsmen daily attacks.

Ladigbolu said, “I am not sure the South-West governors are doing enough and indeed, my own fears is that could this be a rehearsal of the ground design to invade Yorubaland using decoys? That is my personal fears.

“But all we can do at the moment is to ask our people to be vigilant and to defend themselves and protect their lives and property. That is about what we can do for now until we are sure that we have a government that will be fair to all and that will be just to all and that will not be partisan in dealing with issues that affect our communities.”

Speaking on the police investigation into the March 8 clash in Ile-Ife, Ladigbolu said the group was happy that the Osun State Government had set up a panel of inquiry to probe the matter.

Ladigbolu added that he believed that the panel would do a thorough job and come out with a report which would explain the issues surrounding the deadly clash.

He said governments and traditional rulers should call meetings of various ethnic nationalities in their domains to ensure constant dialogue so that the people would know the idiosyncrasies and peculiar things about one another.

The YUF leader had earlier, while addressing the Ooni, stated that vigilance was one of the lessons God wanted Yoruba people to learn from the clash against the Hausa people at the Sabo area of Ile-Ife.

Another leader of the YUF, Senator Femi Okurounmu, said despite the current problems confronting Nigeria, the nation would still be at peace and enjoy development later.

The Ooni called on Yoruba leaders to unite and work more for the development of the race.

He advised Yoruba people against allowing politics to divide them, saying they should unite irrespective of their political affiliations.

The Ooni noted that Yoruba people were unique in the whole world because of their religious tolerance, adding that Christians, Muslims and adherents of other religions coexisted without any fight in Yorubaland.

The Ogiyan of Ejigbo, Oba Omowonuola Oyesosin, also said Yoruba people needed unity more than before.

He said other ethnic groups were envious of the Yoruba race, which could inform the attacks against them.

This is huge lie. I have stayed in three SW states and I have been to four,and I would confidently tell you that the region is the most accommodating. My first experience was in Ife. I lived a house with just the landlord and his family. Being the odd one out and not being Yoruba, I never recalled a day I felt left out.

Most of the people saying otherwise have either not left their region before or have chosen to have their minds closed even before moving to either of the states. Besides, majority of Igbos scattered all over Nigerian find solace in the South West than other regions.

If the Ife vs Hausa saga would be the yardstick then I would say this is hypocritical. Had Yorubas been killed, Some Igbos on here would call them perpetual slaves and now that it is the other way around, the South West is not peaceful. Funny.
that is because you can't compete with them because they are in majority,

biko, come to Lagos and see for yourself, then you will know that I am telling you the truth.
