On my way to.....OMAMBALA

cnario:
I was chilling at the very coded garden of Ben Enweonwu Gallery in Ikoyi, when I overheard two guys discussing. What caught my attention was that one is an Awka guy, while the other one is from 'ikwu nne m', Alor. Apparently, the Awka guy has just built a massive house somewhere on the island, cos the Alor guy wanted to know if the Awka guy would build a 'basillica' in Awka, since he built a 'cathedral' in Lagos. But the Awka guy's response broke my heart to pieces. To cut the long story short, the last time the Awka guy stepped foot in the east was almost 10yrs ago, when his dad was buried, and his elder brother was kidnapped at his father's burial. He thinks Awka, and by extension the entire east, is a primitive village full of savages. He said a lot of silly things that got me boiling on the inside, since this was coming from a supoosed 'Nwa afo', and not 'Onye ofe'.

Anyway, I politely introduced myself, and within minutes we were all chatting like old friends. I tried to make him understand that things are not what they used to be, but he just wasn't buying any of it. In other to convince him, I remebered this thread, and got him to open it on his iPad, but this guy hates the word 'Nairaland'; said it's full of jobless bigoted kids. When this thread finally loaded, the few pages at the beginning weren't too impressive, so we had to jump several pages. But sadly, he landed on a page where my man chino and his sworn enemy from our sister state were doing their thing, which left a very bad taste in the mouth.

This encounter reminded me of the fact that the good things that have been happening in Anambra has no serious media coverage. Yes, that issue has been over-flogged here on this thread. But what if Ibeto doesn't invest in the media? what if Chief Mike Nonso Ajegbo continues to allow MINAJ rot away? Are we just going to keep wishing that someone will rise and do it? The guys on this thread have really been doing a wonderful job, but is it really enough? Is it giving Amabra the necessary Media coverage?

I've heard several/different people talk about developing websites that focus on showcasing the developments and good things happening in Anambra, but I'm yet to see any of them. So I've finally decided to take the bull by the horn. I don't just want to talk, but instead act and contribute my own quota.

I wish to develop a website that will focus on the beautiful things and developmental projects going on in Anambra. I have a lot of ideas on how I'd like it to function, like properly tagging pictures, grouping projects according to location, showing industries, schools, showing the wholistic developments going on in Anambra. We'll have a dedicated ideas/suggesion page where 'umu omambala', from across the world, can contribute their ideas. There's a whole lot I can't type here now.

I'm not talking about a project that'll be forgotten after this post, rather a project that should be fully live in about 2weeks time. I know that with the support of all the guys on this thread we can make it happen. Frank's pictures will definitely go a very long way.

What do you guys think?

Bro your idea is spot on. We should not be discouraged by what the Awka guy in Lagos said, Anambra is our state and we must make it what we want it to be no matter what.
As for me I am available for anything positive concerning my state.
Let me use this opportunity to show my respect to all the guys here for their incredible contributions to this great Anambra thread..cheers!

With the right attitude we will achieve a lot in Anambra state.

rafindo:
uduokirika,zona com,odenigboaroli,groundnut.I would you to all to give ur own take on which of this template should be used in developing football in anambra.
government funded model.

private/individual ownership.

corporate body ownership.

community fan base ownership.

ur insight into these model will position the state into achieving great limelight.

I would go with community fan based ownership, with a little bit of private and corporate body inputs.For me Government input should be out of the equation.

Also a well structured management team devoid of bitter politics and our usual individualistic approach to things. But more importantly a well secured environment before,during and after home matches, this way folks can feel secured and go to matches with their loved ones without fear whatsoever.

Anambra state must set the pace....we are uncommon creatures.

Good one from Obiano, though i didn't vote for him during the Anambra state governorship election in which he won, but we all must join hands and move the state forward as people with vision.
We must as a matter of fact shun all forms of bring him down by all means syndrome, and work together as a people with one destiny.

IgboMonk:
I know this might sound so strange but let me know if am out of order, the election has come and go so are the controversies they generated, let's stop talking about his election here before it will lead to another insult and e-war.

Please can we appoint a leader here who will directing our activities here in NL, we Igbos need leaders in our life, let's learn to be good followers so that we will be speaking with one voice.
The leader will not be gaging us but he or she need to be handling things when they are going outta control.

We need a leader here let's embrace communal living and oneness

Well said nwanne.

Buhari, Osinbajo’ve sinned against God, Nigerians -Sen Adeyemi 0




BY OUR REPORTER ON MARCH 20, 2015 COVER, POLITICS
From ADETUTU FOLASADE-KOYI, Abuja

Chairman of the Senate Committee on Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Senator Smart Adeyemi yesterday, said the All Progressives Congress (APC) has committed two major mistakes against God and Nigerians.

The two mistakes according to Adeyemi are: foisting Gen. Muhammadu Buhari (retd), a dictator, on the electorate and making his deputy, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo, a man of God, abandon his pastoral calling.

In an interview with newsmen in Abuja yesterday, Senator Adeyemi insisted that the APC made “a grievous mistake by picking Buhari as its presidential candidate and they capped that up by bringing Prof. Osinbajo. They went and lured a man of God from the church to join a dictator. He should be prepared to do restitution after March 28.”

“By foisting Buhari on Nigerians; a man, who ordinarily should be asking for forgiveness and doing restitution in his old age, the APC has wronged Nigerians. This is a man, who is not even in tune with economic realities.”

Senator Adeyemi called on the leadership of the Redeemed Church of God not to allow Osinbajo back into its fold but make him undergo cleansing and restitution.

His words: “APC lured a man to betray his divine calling. Osinbajo should not be allowed to go back to Redeemed Church. He has betrayed the sheep he’s pastoring. I’m ashamed that he has betrayed his calling.

“He should undergo restitution and purification. Why? Because he has mingled in sinful activities. He has joined people in maligning a man chosen by God to lead Nigeria and left the path to align with a man that sinned against God and Nigerians.

“He’s now celebrating a dictator against the Nigerian people. It was Buhari who jailed people for 150 and 200 years when he was Head of State. Where have you ever heard of such sentences? If he thinks some people have forgotten, we have not.

“Osinbajo is backing a man without vision and has decided to join a party that is godless. The APC is a party that has been formed purely for vendetta; the APC is only out to retaliate and settle scores with people and its unfortunate that a man of God is in cahoots with these groups of people. The APC was formed purely for business purposes.

“Buhari today should be kept in isolation, praying for forgiveness of sins against God and the Nigerian people; for the oppression of the Nigerian people and the draconian laws he foisted on the people.”

Senator Adeyemi insisted that the ruling Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) would win the March 28 and April 11 polls with a landslide.

uduokirika1:
Jay-jay(Delta state FA chairman) was supposed to be there too but I heard other national engagement took him to Abuja. Amokachi was there with some former super eagle's players. Ifeanyi Uba used his influence to bring them to add to the pop and peagentry.

Nice one...anyway we will continue to give them our full support as the only Anambra team participating in the elite league, I have confidence in chief Ubah to get the stadia fixed in due time.
thanks for the update
Anambra shall be great again!

@ uduokirika1, I can see Daniel Amokachi in da pictures, is he among the Gabros fc coaching crew or just an invited guest?

People doing all manner of evil in the name of Allah.

By Evelyn Usman

Residents of Obele community in Oko-Agbola, Magbon area of Badagry, Lagos, were taken aback at the sight of policemen at the site of a swimming pool around the area on February 13, 2015. However, before their arrival, a crowd had gathered to watch the bloated headless body of a man in the river. At the approach of the policemen, the crowd disappeared into thin air for fear of possible arrest.

Fatai-AderomuOn closer observation , it was discovered that the headless man also had other parts of his body mutilated. For instance, his two breasts were slashed off, his two wrists chopped off and his chest region dissected, revealing a conspicuously deep hole. Not only that, his stomach was also discovered to have been sliced open with the intestines missing, as well as his manhood.

Before the arrival of the policemen, the crowd reportedly tried in vain to fathom the true identity of the headless man who was dumped in the river, stark naked. However, the nut has been cracked by operatives of the Homicide section of the State Criminal Investigations Department ,SCID, Panti, Yaba, following the arrest of a Muslim cleric , otherwise known as Alfa.

The 27 year-old suspect, Alfa Fatai Aderomu, an Arabic teacher popularly known around Oko-Agbonla area of Magbon, is currently cooling his heels inside the dreaded cell at Panti. He gave a shilling account of how the headless body found its way into the river.

JOURNEY OF NO RETURN

The headless man was later discovered to be one Rafiu Suleiman , a father of one, who also lived around the area. Further checks showed that he left home for his place of work in Apapa on Valentine day, February 14, 2015, but never returned. Apprehension reportedly set in next day following his continued absence, a development that led to his family reporting at Morogbo police division the next day.

Search, as gathered, had been conducted round the area, with visits to hospitals and mortuaries but he was not found. His wife and their 3-year-old baby were said to have waited in vain for the arrival of their 41-year-old bread winner, until news about the discovery of a headless man in Obele river reached them.

STARTLING DISCOVERY

Crime Guard gathered that members of the family were invited to ascertain whether the headless body was that of the missing Suleiman. While they were at it, the wife reportedly called a member of the family who was with the Police on phone, informing that her husband had informed her on Valentine day that he would stop by Alfa Aderomu’s place on his way back.

With that information, operatives of the Homicide section led by the officer-in charge, Mr Iyamah Daniel, a Chief superintendent of Police, stormed Aderomu’s apartment located at 32, Oko-Agbola street,where he was seen teaching children Arabic and Islamic studies. He was subsequently apprehended.

Spokesman for the Lagos State Police Command, Kenneth Nwosu, who confirmed the arrest, revealed that when a search was conducted round the cleric’s apartment, a pair of blue Jeans identified as the one worn by the victim was found in a nearby bust opposite Alfa Aderomu’s house. On further interrogation, he reportedly opened up by saying that he administered a concoction on the deceased that fateful day which led to his death, right in his apartment which he shared with his wife and five children.

CONCOCTION FOR FAVOR

In an encounter with the Oyo state-born suspect, he gave a terrifying account which could be likened to a horror movie, of how the victim whom he claimed to be his client, died and how he was dumped in the river. Hear him: “ Rafiu Suleiman (deceased) was a friend and a client for two years . He usually came for spiritual cleansing. Yes, I have been an Alfa ( Islamic cleric) for 15 years.I own a mosque where I teach children Islamic and Arabic studies.

I also administer treatment on strange sicknesses. Also, I prepare concoction of favor, success and quick sales for my clients. On February 14 , 2015, Suleiman called me on phone to inform that his child had dislocated his arm. I told him I could prepare medicine that would heal him. That morning, he came to my house and dropped N2000 for the preparation of the medicine intended for his child.recovered-earthen-pot

On his way back from work, precisely11pm, he came to my place and demanded for an earlier concoction I prepared for him. It was for favor. He said he needed it in order to gain his boss’s favor at work. He worked as a crane driver. After preparing the concoction, he took it . That was 12 midnight. By then, he said he could not go back home, that it was late. At about 2am, he started complaining of stomach ache. I gave him palm oil, after which we both slept.

… AND HE DIED?

At this point, the suspect paused , shook his head intermittently and cast a stare at this reporter as if he was in a trance. After a long silence, he continued: “ I woke up at about 4am. But by the time I shook Suleiman to wake him up, he was cold. I shook him vigorously and at the same time called out his name but there was dead silence.”

Crime Guard asked if his (Alfa’s) wife and children whom he said occupied one of the two bedrooms were not attracted by the noise, he replied: “ No, I did not shout that loud . Immediately, I picked my phone and quickly dialed the number of the Chief Imam of Obelle community (name withheld). When he came, he suggested we should take the body away from the house in order to avoid prying eyes.”

HOW BODY WAS DISMEMBERED

Alfa Aderomu stated that the body was cut and and packed into two bags of rice and thereafter, taken to a bush along the street. From his explanation, it seemed the Chief Imam came prepared for the dehumanizing act, as according to him: “ When we reached the bush, the Chief Imam brought out a knife and cut the two wrist s and the head.

He hid them somewhere in the bush with a promise to come pick them later. Next day, we called another cleric named(name withheld) on phone. On arrival, we discovered that came with another cleric(name withheld) . They dissected the chest and removed the heart . They also cut the stomach and removed all the intestines. They further cut off the breasts and manhood.”

BODY DUMPED IN THE RIVER

Asked what part of the body he collected, he said , “I did not collect any part”. Also asked what they intended doing with the body parts, he said : “ I believe they either wanted to sell them or use them to prepare concoction for fertility , stroke or other illnesses.’’ Continuing, he said : “ We, thereafter, pulled his clothes and pants before dumping him inside the stagnant pool . Our intention was to prevent his death being linked to me. I did not plan to kill him.

POWDERY SUBSTANCE KILLED HIM

How could I plan to kill Rafiu Suleiman who was like a brother to me? I have prepared several concoctions for him and nothing bad has ever happened. What actually killed him was the powdery substance I added in the concoction. I believe it was too much. That was why, when he complained of stomach ache, I quickly gave him palm oil.

I didn’t know it would kill him. Since I became a cleric, such calamity had never befallen me. I had to call my colleagues because I was confused. I did not know they would end up complicating my problem,. If I had known, I would have called his family or even raised alarm.

RECOVERED BURNT SUBSTANCE

When asked what the earthen port with burnt substance which was recovered inside his apartment was meant for, the suspect revealed that it was a concoction for success which was at the verge of being prepared for a client. According to him: “ The burnt substance were in different denominations of naira I added some ingredients to it before burning them. It was at the last stage of preparation when I was arrested.

The last stage would have been the killing of a ram for the blood to be added to the burnt materials. Thereafter, the ram would be cooked and shared to people. It was meant for a client who wanted to be successful in his business”, he said , insisting however that his intention was never to kill his client.

POLICE ON THE TRAIL OF FLEEING CHIEF IMAM

As at the time of filing this report, operatives of the Homicide section were on their way to recover the head of the victim from where the suspect said it was kept. Also the Chief Imam of the community alleged to have cut off the head and wrists was said to be on the run. But the Police stated that they were on his trail, assuring that they would get him.

POLICE REACTION

Lagos State Command Image maker, Kenneth Nwosu, who confirmed the story said that the suspects would be charged to court at the conclusion of investigations.

I endorse your submission bro!

My respect to our fallen brothers and sisters, may your souls continue to rest in peace. Amen!

APC & Buhari apologists brought this shiit upon themselves, when VP Sambo presented his affidavit to Inec Apc were crying foul without knowing that Buhari is even Ntaakara dropout!
Enough of all this childish defense of Pa Buhari from Apc concerning his certificate,they should help him to provide his cert.since maybe old age wouldnt allow him locate where he kept it, or substitute him with another person, No time.
