Adieza: IFEANYI UBAH DECLARES FOR APGA, INSISTS THAT AFA IGBO AMA EFU!
To my steadfast supporters and umu nnem,
Today marks a turning point in my political life as I take a giant leap into that which will spur the advancement of my dream for an ideal and prosperous Anambra State. It has been a bumpy ride considering where I started from, the rough roads I have been through and challenges I have faced in search for the light at the end of the tunnel.
Having done so much politically over the years by virtue of my avid belief in adding value to the people of Anambra State and in appreciation to God for his mercies on my life bearing in mind my modest background being the Son of a Teacher, it has become imperative to take stock of my contributions, assess my strengths/weaknesses and take advantage of the opportunities available to me which would be in tandem with my drive to further the course of the Ndi Igbo.
As part of my vision and passion to advance the cause of my people, I have spent the last 5 years of my life making concerted efforts through human capital development and the rechanneling of my investments in oil and gas, media, sports, construction amongst others to my home state in a bid to empower the youths and contribute my quota to building a robust state economy. During this period, I have had laughs and good times with my people while also suffering betrayals and deceit from friends and allies alike. Be that as it may, there is a limit to what I can achieve in my private capacity as it is my staunch belief that the number of lives one can touch while occupying the seat of power far outweighs the number that can be touched in one's private capacity. I have been immensely blessed by God and as such, I do not consider politics as beneficial except that it provides me with the channel to which I can achieve my ultimate aim of sincere service to Ndi Anambra.
Incidentally and regrettably, despite several efforts to expand the horizon of lives one can touch using the seat of power, I have not been lucky enough to achieve my goal. Bearing in mind the number of politicians that have ended up worse off having encountered not even up to half of what I have suffered in politics, I will continue to thank God immensely for affording me the wherewithal to continually put food on my table as well as that of others. I strongly believe that the route I have journeyed through up until now was ordained by God to avail me the requisite experience which as we all know, is the best teacher. My next steps are hinged on His divine direction and I am happy and contented to follow as he leads. I will continue to champion people-oriented programmes and the cause of Ndi Igbo with the fullest assurance that God will answer our prayers soon.
For those who believe I should quit politics in my best interest owing to all that I have suffered in the hands of politicians, I must say thank you for your care and kind advice. I have taken note of your sincere counsel. However, I believe that the end will justify the means as I am bold, strong, courageous and determined to take Anambra State to the next level.
Unfortunately, having spent most of my political life working assiduously for the PDP and in consideration of the unfair and callous treatment meted out on me despite my several pleas to the party hierarchy, I have decided to call it a day with the PDP. The political backstabbing has left a sour taste in my mouth and I have come to the conclusion that my service to the PDP is the price I have to pay if I am to succeed in my quest to serve my people. At this juncture, I have left the battle for the Lord.
In view of the above, I wish to state unequivocally that I have taken a position to fight for the sustenance and continued relevance of my state and the Igbo tribe. I am a very strong and proud Igbo man who is passionate about the protection of the Igbo name and the pride attached to it. I have dedicated myself to ensure that "Afa Igbo ama efu".
Being an indigene of Nnewi, home to notable Nigerians like General Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu (Ikemba Nnewi), HRH Prince Nwafor Orizu, Dr. Chuchu Okongwu, Chief Cletus Ibeto, Dr. Ikem Okeke, HRH Igwe Kenneth Orizu amongst a host of others and one of the biggest industrial cities in Nigeria, I have taken a position to champion the cause of the Igbo race by striving to ensure the growth and sustenance of the only party bequeathed to us by the Great Ikemba Nnewi, All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA). I have decided to join the struggle to ensure that our legacy lives on as we must uphold the identity of the Igbos as handed down to us by Dim Odumegwu Ojukwu.
While APGA might be seen as a regional party, there is no doubt in my mind that we can make it a force to reckon with nationally in the mould of Alliance for Democracy (AD) that metamorphosed into Action Congress (AC), then later transformed to Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN) and now the All Progressives Congress (APC) which currently leads at the centre.
Based on this and my conscience, in truth, before God and man, I have made up my mind and resolved to join and support the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA). My political journey which started from APGA has taken me to two other political parties, Labour Party and then PDP. I am extremely glad to be back to where I belong. Nke a bu nke anyi! I want to assure party faithfuls that I have returned to add immense value to the party and grow the party with the experience I have gathered over the years in politics.
To mark my new political sojourn, I will be committing myself to APGA during this election and subsequent elections by organising a rally tagged AFA IGBO EFUNA which would underscore my entrance into the party. This rally is scheduled to take place on the 13th of November 2017 at the Ifeanyi Ubah Games Village, Ozubulu/Nnewi. Furthermore, I will commence the sensitization of my friends, foes, allies and all Anambrarians from Sunday, 5th of November, 2017 by 8PM through Authority 91.9FM radio and live stream youtube channel (to watch, click here: https://gaming.youtube.com/channel/UC4Nm7tJwcO1cwz2OPf971FQ/live) on the factors that informed my resolution and the need for Ndi Anambra, especially those from Anambra South to key into the vision and support APGA. This process will last throughout the campaign period as allowed by INEC.
I wish to thank all my supporters who have stood by me patiently and persistently throughout my political travails. Your prayers and perseverance are the reasons we are where we are today. To those who feel aggrieved and disappointed as a result of my choice, I wish to tender an unreserved apology to you all as I reassure you that my decision is a product of a well-thought-out assessment of the political landscape as well as fervent prayers.
May I also use this medium to specifically express my sincere gratitude to my precious wife and lovely children for their ceaseless prayers, support and encouragement so far irrespective of the trials and tribulations. You all have been an endless source of strength and inspiration. I love you all.
To my spiritual fathers, elders and true friends who have also been praying for me while rendering their informed advice, I am very thankful for everything you have done for me. May God reward you all in his infinite mercies.
For the avoidance of doubt, I wish to state that while I would gladly render my sincere advice to the party on the line it should tow nationally, I will be lending my full support to whichever party they deem fit nationally in a bid to achieve equity in the event that my party declines to produce a candidate for national elections.
This election is not a do or die affair and as such, I wish to call on the Federal Government, State Government, INEC, relevant security agencies, political parties and my fellow Anambrarians to join hands in ensuring that the elections are conducted in a free and fair manner, devoid of violence and rancour.
I swear dis dude nor get shame jumpin' frm one pot to anoda....bros leadership nor be by force oooo...emulate de like of dangote,mike adenuga n co......
Youngadvocate: Nollywood actor James Ikechukwu Esomugha popularly known as Jim Iyke was all dapper as he stepped out for the "afternoonexpress" programme as a guest on South African Broadcasting Corporation in Capetown, South Africa.
The Nollywood veteran thespian had a pair of luxurious Gucci shoes to blend his spruce attire.
He wrote on his Instagram handle: "Guest on @afternoonexpress on #SABC CAPETOWN. AMAZING SHOW!"
barrysome001: Following the implementation of the Electric Power Sector Reform Act of 2005, in 2013, the defunct PHCN was unbundled into 18 successor companies (6 Generating Companies, 1 Transmission company and 11 Distribution companies). The Distribution Companies (Discos) are the customer-interfacing arm of the Nigeria power sector and majority of us resident in Nigeria are their customers one way or the other.
How well is your Electricity Provider (Distribution Company) performing in your area?
For me; PHED- 60%. Unjust billing is their specialty,though we have a fair power supply.
kobo123: Nollywood’s sexy charming and alluring beautiful twins Treasure & Tracy Daniels turns a year older today. The twins have starred in over 200 hundred movies in and outside the country making them one of the most sorth after actors for twin roles in the industry.
fingard02k: This is where majority of the meats sold in Anambra State Capital, Awka and its environs comes from.
Awka abattoir popularly called Kwata, the smells from this place is enough to make one lose appetite for meat.
The unbearable stench that oozes from the abattoir has forced most people living within the vicinity to relocate to other areas of the town and also made Eze-Uzu Awka, Obi Gibson Nwosu, who’s Palace is 20 meters away from the slaughter house, once threatened to close down the place due to how unkept the place is.
Commissioner of Heath in the State, Dr. Josephat Akabuike, once said that “it is suicidal to eat meat coming out from the dirty abattoir.”
Though the operators there had cried out over the unfair treatment they receive from the authorities in the state in spite of the heavy levies they pay, yet they still lack the basic amenities, including access to potable water needed for a decent abattoir.
I wonder if the state Governor, Chief Willie Obiano who claims to be the people’s Governor eat meat from this same place since 90% of Awka residence and his workers at the goverment house eat meat from this dirt or rather posion?
fastgyal: I'm writing this from my own personal experience. Dear girls, don't just fall 'head over heels' for a guy without knowing the nature of his job or any of his close relatives.
There's this guy who's been inviting me over for quite sometime, we met at an event and exchanged contacts. I did that because he assisted me with something at that event. He calls me for about an hour or two every night. That was early this year.
When I asked about his nature of job, he said he was a contractor, he couldn't tell me which firm he works with. He stays at home 24/7 from Monday through Friday, weekends inclusive.
I finally agreed to go out with him sometime in February. This guy owns a Bentley and a Range Rover. Each time I try to bring up the issue of his job, he waives it off. The way he spent money on me and my friend that day was lavish and suspicious. I wasn't comfortable at all. He paid for my Uber ride to and fro. Spent about 80K at the exquisite restaurant just for food and drinks. We were three;Him, my friend And I. He uses two iPhones, one infinix hot4 and a smaller phone. I felt so much discomfort with him that day. Thank God my spirit never accepted him. that evening, he had a minor issue with his friend. I was listening to their conversation and I found out my guess was right. I had to cut up all ties with him after that day. abeg I can't be spending money whose source I know nothing about.
The second was a guy I loved, I won't lie. I met him at the mall and there was this kind of attraction. We flowed freely, got talking and all that. I won't say everything I witnessed at his place for personal reasons. I asked what he's been doing since he graduated, he said business. What kind of business? He replied; 'online business'
The day I visited him, his friends came over and for more than one hr, they were glued to their laptops, doing 'heaven knows what' and making calls to dupe victims. I also saw about 7 master keys for cars. I had no access to his FB account then. only whatsapp and IG.
When I checked his pictures on FB, I was trembling with all the things I saw. he's in a gang, probably a cult. Always wearing shirts with that devilish logo of a skull printed in it. Wearing all Black and all that.
And girls, please don't open your legs for any guy you've just met until you're very sure he's clean. I really loved this last one but although its hard to let go, I just have to. I'm not saying I'm a virgin, but I just don't open my legs for any one because he throws money at my face whatsoever. I'm being very plain here so girls can learn.
Let this get to front page please mods.
am nt surprise at dis because girls are always after rich guys n men witout knwin de source of dia weaith....dey won't follow de ones dat hv future plans for dem..all dey nid is big phone big handbag,bigcar n brazilian weavon....only God wil hlp u girls....

Sexual Harassment is a silent prevailing workplace menace, whose victims are both male and female. The female cannot speak out because of the male chauvinistic settings of the society, and also, the male cannot cry for help because of societal expectations. So both gender suffer in silence, everybody pretend as if it never occurred and life continues.Only that it does occurred! Dealing with sexual harassment can be both trick and difficult. 1).What is Sexual Harassment 2).How can Business prevent Workplace Sexual Harassment 3). Facing the Music 4). What to do if you are sexually harassed A) Sexual Harassment Is an unwanted sexual advances, request for sexual favours; it may be verbal or physical. Sexual Harassment generally creates an intimidating,hostile, offensive and tense workplace atmosphere. It ultimately violates the victim's dignity as a person.
B).Examples of Sexual Harassment It comes in all shapes and sizes. It might be an innocent or deliberate process such as i. Making lewd suggestive comments ii. Touching a woman's bosom or bottom iii. Unnecessary provocative starring.
Some people are touchy people, who naturally tend to touch people when communicating, this might be a form of sexual Harassment especially when it's unwanted by the victim. C).How can business prevent it. Business and workplace can do a lot to curb this menace such as
i. Sensitization of employees through seminars, calendars.t.c ii. Creating a formal channel to report and deal precisely with such occurrence. iii. Draw out sexual harassment policy.
D). Facing the music Dancing to the music, the consequence, for your business might be fatal if not dealt with on time and precisely. Business and reputation go hand in hand A workplace where sexual harassment thrives reduces the zeal or the urge of the workers to give their best, which results in low productivity. i). Court Action A person who sexually harass another may be liable under plethora of relevant laws, such as Lagos State Criminal Code. ii). Employer’s Vicarious liability As an employer, in whose employment such sexual harassment thrives without any measure to curb it, you may be vicariously liable. In the end, it wouldn’t matter whether the employer wins or loose in court, because your business or reputation might just not recover.
E). What to do if you are sexually been harassed
There is no hard and fast rule to this, it ain’t set in stone. The severity of each case of sexual harassment differs 1. Confrontation: Express your displeasure in clear and bold terms. Those who sexually harass others are like bullies, they feed on fear and weaknesses of their victim. They have a nose for it, so you must toughen up, and suffocate your own fears to be a able to consistently stand up to them. 2. Documentation Seriously, you need to document. whether or not you will pursue a legal action, you still need certain evidence, to report to a higher authority or to prove pattern of sexual harassment to other victims. 3. Report File an Official complaint, in writing. Don’t make the mistake of complaining to an higher authority orally, people deny even their mother, so denying you never reported wont be hard. Also, get a stamped copy showing it was received by such person’s office for documentation. People naturally tend to take written things more seriously than oral ones.
4. Start writing another C.V What happens, where the higher Authority that is to be reported to is the one sexually harassing you? You might have to look for job elsewhere or speak with your superman lawyer.
