PRESS STATEMENT

August 27, 2017.

HOLD OKOROCHA RESPONSIBLE FOR DEATHS IN EKE UKWU MARKET – PDP

1. We condemn the Forceful Demolition of the Popular Eke Ukwu Market and violent eviction of traders in Owerri by the Imo State Government using men of the Nigerian Police Force and other security agencies during which three (3) people including a 10 year old child were extra-judicially murdered and several other people were injured.

2. This violent eviction is all the more condemnable because it was carried out in violation of a pending Order granted by an Imo State High Court restraining the Imo State Government from demolishing the Market and Evicting the Traders.

3. This action, sadly, follows a pattern of the Use of the Apparatus of State Security to forcefully and violently carry out evictions of ordinary Nigerians from valuable property in blatant violation of Court Orders. Not very long ago, the Lagos State Government ordered the Forceful Eviction of indigent Nigerians from waterfront properties to enable it enter into joint venture agreements for the Construction of luxury apartments. Like the Owerri incident, this eviction led to the deaths of at least two (2) people and the Injury of several others, including women and children.

4. As much as we acknowledge the deals of Development and the Construction of critical infrastructure, these ideals must be pursued within the confines of respect for the Rule of Law as well as in a humane manner that preserves the dignity of indigent Nigerians while giving them viable and affordable alternatives regarding where to live, grow and trade.

5. Unfortunately, the All Progressives Congress (APC) does not recognise such valuable ideals and as such, continues to design, promote and pursue anti-people policies.

6. We call for the Immediate Investigation of these extra-judicial murders and for the Culprits to be brought to book. Only such an action will give justice to the Dead and discourage the Use of the Police and other security agencies as tools fo further oppression of ordinary Nigerians.

7. May God rest the dead.

Nigerian President Muhammadu Buhari will work from home after rodents damaged his official office during a more than 100-day overseas medical absence, a presidential spokesman told AFP Tuesday.

The animals damaged furniture and air conditioning fittings in the president’s official Abuja office while he was in London receiving treatment, his media adviser Garba Shehu confirmed.

“These are also general works and it is not uncommon for Nigerian presidents to also work from the presidential villa. He has used the residential office for many years,” said Shehu.

“What is important is that the job gets done. Whether he does it from his bedroom or his sitting room or his anteroom — it does not matter. Let the job be done. And the job will be done,” Shehu told the Arise News broadcaster.



Shehu was unable to confirm what type of rodent was responsible for the damage, which occurred during the president’s prolonged absence for an undisclosed medical condition.

“I do not have that level of detail,” he said, adding that it was unclear how long the refurbishment would last.

During his time away, tensions surfaced back home, where calls grew for him to either return or resign.

The Nigerian leader met with his security chiefs at his official residence on Tuesday, ordering them to deal with threats to the unity of the country.

In the weeks before Buhari left for London on May 7, he also worked from the presidential residence — missing cabinet meetings and having official documents transported to him.

Rumours about his health have dogged Buhari even before he came to power in May 2015. He rejected claims during the election that he was critically ill from prostate cancer.

Buhari did not address his absence or medical situation when he addressed the nation on television on Monday, instead talking about separatism, crime, terrorism and the economy in his first speech since returning.

In an official letter to parliament on Monday relieving Vice President Yemi Osinbajo of his duties as acting head of state, Buhari described his trip as a “medical follow-up”.

Clashes between protesters calling on Buhari to return from his recent lengthy absence and the presidents’ defenders erupted in Abuja last week.

He first travelled to London in June last year for what aides said was a persistent inner ear infection, returning in January for check-ups, according to his office.

The health of Nigeria’s president is a sensitive issue. President Umaru Musa Yar’Adua died in office in 2010 from a long-standing, but previously undisclosed, kidney complaint.

But Buhari was forced to return by

Makarfi shut up

Why

Following the arrival of President Muhammadu Buhari in Nigeria from a medical vacation in the United Kingdom, Chairman, National Caretaker Committee of the Peoples Democratic Party,PDP, Senator Ahmed Makarfi has charged the ruling party to stop the blame game and focus on governance.

In a chat with Vanguard Saturday, Makarfi said the PDP has always wish the President well, noting that having return, the buck passing game should now give way to governance.

“We are glad he is back home. The official position of the PDP has been to pray for his quick and full recovery and to return home. Now that he is back, there should be no more buck passing within the government,” he said.

Meanwhile former Minister of Aviation and chieftain of the PDP, Chief Femi Fani-Kayode said the resilience of protesters eventually forced the hand of President Buhari to return home after spending 105 days in London.

Reacting to President Buhari’s arrival yesterday, the ex- Minister commended the Charly Boy-led #OurMumuDonDo movement saying their offshore campaign in London, forced the President to change his mind to return home.

“I commend the efforts of the #ResumeorResign group for chasing Muhammadu Buhari out of the United Kingdom after one night of protest outside Abuja House in London,” he wrote on his Twitter Handle.

the National Bureau of Statistics said on Wednesday.



The NBS stated this in its National Corruption Report, adding that 32.3 per cent of Nigerian adults who had contact with public officials between June 2015 and May 2016 had to pay bribes to the government workers.

The report, a copy of which was obtained by our correspondent in Abuja, was prepared by the NBS in collaboration with the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime.

It said the majority of those who paid bribes to public officials did so more than once over the course of the year.

According to the survey, bribe payers in Nigeria pay an average of six bribes in one year, or one bribe every two months.

By combining the total number of people who paid bribes to public officials with the frequency of the payments, the NBS report estimated that a total of 82.3 million bribes were paid in the 12-month period.

This, the report stated, resulted in an average of almost one bribe paid by every adult Nigerian per year.

The report read in part, “Taking into account the fact that nine out of every 10 bribes paid to public officials in Nigeria are paid in cash and the size of the payments made, it is estimated that the total amount of bribes paid to public officials in Nigeria in the 12 months was around N400bn, the equivalent of $4.6bn in purchasing power parity.

“This sum is equivalent to 39 per cent of the combined federal and state education budgets in 2016.

The average sum paid as a cash bribe in Nigeria is approximately N5,300, which is equivalent to $61 – PPP.

“This means that every time a Nigerian pays a cash bribe, he or she spends an average of 28.2 per cent of the average monthly salary of N18,900.

“Since bribe payers in Nigeria pay an average of 5.8 bribes over the course of one year, 92 per cent of which are paid in cash, they spend an average of N28,200 annually on cash bribes – equivalent to 12.5 per cent of the annual average salary.”

The NBS report said 85.3 per cent of bribery cases in Nigeria were initiated either directly or indirectly by public officials, adding that almost 70 per cent of bribes were paid before any service was rendered.

“With such a large portion of public officials initiating bribes, which are paid upfront, it seems that many public officials show little hesitation in asking for a kickback to carry out their duty and that bribery is an established part of the administrative procedure in Nigeria,” it added.

While money is the most important form of bribe payment in Nigeria, the report stated that other forms such as the provision of food and drink, the handing over of valuables or the exchange of another service or favour also existed.

The report further revealed that 42 per cent of bribes in Nigeria were paid to speed up or finalise an administrative procedure that might otherwise be delayed for a long period or even indefinitely.

According to the report, the second largest proportion of bribes is paid to avoid a fine through frequent encounters with police, while 13 per cent of all bribes are paid to avoid the cancellation of public utility services, an indication that the provision of the most basic amenities, including water and sanitation, can be subject to abuse of power by public officials in Nigeria.

The report stated that law enforcement agents such as the police and judiciary workers such as judges and magistrates were the highest takers of bribe in Nigeria.

It stated, “Police officers are the type of public officials to whom bribes are most commonly paid in Nigeria. Of all adult Nigerians who had direct contact with police officers in the 12 months prior to the survey, almost half paid the officers at least one bribe, and in many cases, more than one since police officers are also among the three types of public officials to whom bribes are paid most frequently in Nigeria.

“At the same time, the average bribe paid to police officers is somewhat below the average bribe size.

“Although fewer people come into contact with judiciary officials than with police officers over the course of the year, when they do, the risk of bribery is considerable: at 33 per cent, the prevalence of bribery in relation to prosecutors is the second highest, closely followed by judges and magistrates.”

Other public officials with a high risk of bribery, according to the report, are car registration/driving licence officers (28.5 per cent); tax and customs officers (27.3 per cent); road traffic management officials (25.5 per cent); public utilities officers (22.4 per cent); and land registry officers (20.9 per cent).

“This shows that corruption takes place across a number of different sectors of the public administration and that certain public officials have a disproportionate impact on the daily lives of Nigerians,” it added.

What is this man smoking

National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Chief John Odigie-Oyegun, has declared that President Muhammadu Buhari remains the party’s best bet for the 2019 presidential election.

Odigie-Oyegun, who gave the verdict, yesterday, in an exclusive interview with New Telegraph, allayed the fear that the president will not seek re-election.
He said the Buhari he saw during a recent meeting between the president and some leaders of the party in London informed his conviction.

He therefore described the boast by the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to return to power as a dream, stating that APC is on ground and will retain power in the next general elections.
Former President Goodluck Jonathan had in his address at the PDP national convention on Saturday in Abuja, said the party’s achievements while in power would rekindle the confidence of the electorate to vote it back to power in the 2019 general elections.

“The party is indeed back to reclaim its prime position as the party to lead Nigeria to greatness. As a human institution, we cannot claim to be perfect and as a political party, our accomplishments up to 2015 are clear for every Nigerian to see,” Jonathan had said.

But Odigie-Oyegun mocked the former president and the PDP, describing them as dreamers.
He said: “Whether the president seeks re-election or not, that is a decision only he (the president) can make. And when he makes it, in the unlikely event that he makes that decision, he is not just going to walk away. If Jonathan, a defeated president who wants to rule this country, can be talking about coming back or his party coming back, what of a very charismatic president, who even without money had 12 million votes behind him. So, the comparison is odious.

“APC will still retain power, but we pray that he (Buhari) contests because he is our best card right now. Everything is in the hands of God, but if for any reason he decides not to contest, but I don’t foresee that, he is still President Buhari and he will still work for the party and we will have a candidate that he still blesses. But, that is an unlikely event because the Buhari I saw is building up strength and energy. Let us keep decisions into the hands of God.”

Oyegun had earlier told New Telegraph that he would do everything possible, including “fasting and prayer,” to ensure that Buhari re-contests in 2019.
He said: “I will pray, fast to God that Buhari agrees to contest in 2019. If he contests, Nigeria will be better for it. My prayer is for us to get Buhari to re-contest in 2019. We don’t know his mind yet, but I will do anything in my power to ensure that he re-contests in 2019. Why? There is no other Buhari in this country. Buhari is the only man who can command 12 million votes even without any major campaign.”

Wondering where PDP derived its bravado from, he insisted that Nigerians are not ready to hand over power to a party that decimated the country.
He further said of the former ruling party’s boast: “They have a right to dream because you don’t have to pay anything to dream.

We are on the ground, we are working and the people are aware of the atrocities they have inflicted on this nation. It is clear that there is no going back to PDP, but if they want to dream and bask in false hope, we cannot deny them.


“Jonathan lost an election, how does he think he is coming back? We haven’t even got to the bottom of the injury and damage they inflicted on this nation. If we could defeat him as a sitting president, what of now that he is in opposition and not just opposition, but a fractured, guilty and condemned opposition, which brought this country to its knee. I don’t know where they got their bravado from?”
When reminded that the former ruling party is talking tough and saying that it is ready to take over power in 2019, the APC national chairman said: “That is not the point. The point is whether the people of this country are ready to hand over power to a party that decimated the country.


“Nigerians are no idiots, they may be suffering economic hardship now, but they are not idiots. They know what happened to this country. Of course, they wished their condition today was better, but they are not going to hand over power to those who were responsible for decimating the country.

“Stories are coming out every day and these are facts. There is nothing giving them confidence. It is just bravado. And bravado doesn’t depend on strength; it means making the world to think that you have strength. Look at Korea and United States; the United States can wipe Korea out of the face of the earth, but when the Korea leader speaks, he gives the impression that they can wipe US out of the face of the earth. These things happen every day.

“So, we are not losing any sleep over PDP at all because they are yet to find their feet. I even pray they find their feet because we need them to keep us on our toes. We don’t want a country without a reasoning opposition, but they shouldn’t get their ambitions too high.”

The APC national chairman also expressed optimism that nothing will make Nigerians to dump APC for PDP in 2019.
According to him, the ruling party has made tremendous progress in rebuilding the damage done to Nigeria in 16 years by PDP in its just about two years in power.
His words: “It took PDP 16 years to damage this country. Don’t forget that it is easier to damage than to construct. So, the damage PDP did in this country for 16 years, we have had only two years to rebuild and things are beginning to look up.

“By the end of this year, we will be self-sufficient in most of our agricultural needs, by next year, we will be a net exporter of rice. These and more are the building blocks of a nation that is prepared for greatness and prosperity. The people are seeing this and recognising it. We know things are hard, but thank God that people are seeing through. They realise that things are hard and we are doing the best we can.”
On alleged plot by some chieftains of APC to defect to PDP ahead of the 2019 elections, he said: “I hope those we expect, will be the ones to go to PDP because there are some who are more of a cancer to us than anything. When they go, depending on who they are, we will be consoled.

“This is not the first time they have gone and come, we are watching. To take fewer people away may affect the party, that is normal, but we are still receiving people into the party on a daily basis.”

The General Superintendent of the Deeper Life Bible Church, Pastor Williams Kumuyi, has warned church members and the general public against donating money to a fictitious Facebook account bearing his name and photograph.

The announcement was made on behalf of the 76-year-old church leader during worship service on Sunday.

The church revealed that some unscrupulous persons had opened social media accounts, one of which is a Facebook account, soliciting money from members of the public, purportedly “for the work of God.”

In the announcement, the church was categorical in its denial, saying the church does not even print envelopes for non-members to contribute towards any church project, much less coming on the worldwide web to ask for donations.

“We hereby urge church members and the general public to disregard such solicitations, as they’re meant to dent the image of the church and that of our revered pastor,” the announcer said.

AlanSugar:
Ipob miscreants always shifting the goal post in the middle of every game. Fashola was the president of which country, pls remind me?

Who is now your super Minister, to continue looting where he stopped

Josmila:
See, PDP can never win the Presidency in this country again, just so you know. They had the opportunity to transform this country, but they personalised it for self aggrandisement.

All I expect them to do is gather themselves at Eagles Square again and tender an unreserved apology to Nigerians for the reckless and heartless looting of our treasury for 16 years.

Right now all I see is them trying to return and run this country to the ground.

Can you tell me the State Nigeria is currently,
Lets start from there
