The tribunal presided over by Justice Ahmed Badamasi granted the application of the PDP through its counsel, Yusuf Ali, SAN for the ballot papers earlier admitted as exhibits by the tribunal to be recounted.
‎

The tribunal also ordered that the recounting of ballot papers used in four local government areas, namely Akoko Edo, Egor, Etsako East and Etsako West, in the September 28 Governorship Election in Edo, be done in the open court.

According to the INEC documents the total number of registered Voters in Akoko-Edo was 111,832 while the Votes Cast stood at 39,522. For Egor, the total number of registered voters are 183,135 the total Votes Cast is 49,274.

The total number of registered voters in Etsako East Is 68,080, while the total Votes Cast is 29,434. In the same vein, Etsako West has a total of 140,366 registered voters while the total Votes Cast is 41,594.

There was however a slight delay before the recounting commenced, as the Counsel to INEC Onyinye Alumonye told the court that the INEC staff who will represent the Commission in the process was not in court.

As at press time, the tribunal granted the prayer of Ali (SAN) for an increase in the number of representatives from all parties, who will be split into two groups, to speed up the entire process.

Indications are that all the ballot papers for the polling units are being counted at the end of which the total counted for each local government will be recorded by all parties.

Sadly, most people throw away the towel at that stage 3 believing that their partners was never worth it by saying they are "incompatible". But funny enough, after they breakup they start regretting why they did. I hope people have that happy relationship and marriage that they seek.

Because they refuse to address the little little foxes in stage 2 that will spoil the vine leading to stage three

[quote author=TonyeBarcanista post=53521712]By TonyeBarcanista

Even in the best of relationships, feelings change. It’s just a normal part of love. It is so normal that psychologists have noticed a near-universal pattern in the way lovers’ attitudes towards one another change.

There are basically FIVE distinct stages of love which every relationship and marriage pass through. Though most relationships and marriages end in stage 3, couples that can pass through this 3rd stage will sure enjoy that dream happy-ever-after kind of relationship.

Stage 1: Falling In Love Or Romance Stage:
https://cdn.davidwolfe.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/shutterstock_158352050-750x536.jpg
During this stage, partners project their hopes and dreams of spending their life with one another. Each believes the other is their perfect soulmate who will provide them with pleasure and companionship for the rest of their lives. Partners who just came out from previous relationships will be wondering where on earth he/she was all these years. It feel so special!

Phone calls, text/whatsapp/bbm messages, dates, hangouts etc are regular. Couples are never tired of each other. Flaws are ignored at all times.

This is the "perfect love" that is projected in movies, novels and fantasies of our minds.

At this stage, hormones like oxytocin, dopamine and serotonin go wild, adding to the feelings of love.


Call it infatuation, you are not wrong.

Carefulness demands that before going on or starting, know what you want

Stage 2: Becoming Partners:
In this stage the infatuation characteristics is a bit reduced, little flaws are spotted but couples brush them aside.

While some enter into marriage, some others, especially younger couples formally engage their partners or do some pre-engagement. Married partners build their lives together, have kids, build house(s), buy lands or project a future. For the unmarried partners, they talk about marriage, fantasise about life together and work to strengthen each other.

In fact, couples become one, there is high sense of appreciation for each other and a strong sense of security. They wish it will last forever...But here comes the next ..

As much as every partners will want to like this stage. Every problems noticed should be promptly attended to, cause "owuro la ti san imo gbiģbe" "kekere la tin peka iroko"

Stage 3: Disillusionment Or Power Struggle:
https://cdn.davidwolfe.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/shutterstock_120851467-750x499.jpg
For most relationship and marriages, this is the beginning of the end.

Everything just seem to go wrong. Partners feel more insecure and unhappy with each other. The infatuation of stage 1 and illusion of stage 2 have both worn off. Partners begin to feel they made terrible mistake entering relationship with their other half. Partners fight and quarrel a lot over particular and most times tribal issues. To a partner one is not understanding, while to the other assume/conclude that his/her partner is disloyal.

Comparisons and statements pops up. Statements like, "I thought s/he was different, how foolish was I" "Tonye my ex wasn't as problematic as this" "Modupe was even better when we were together" "s/he isn't worth it" "I've had enough and I am quitting" "Ibrahim is even cuter and richer, I think I gotta dump this guy before he dumps me" "Chiamaka is even more beautiful and mannered than her" "wetin carry me join this short broke man" "no be say she even fine like that sef".

This is a very delicate stage. This is the stage where some people cheat, some open up to accommodate friends of opposite gender to "get what they lack" in their partners. Some married people separates, while some divorce. Engagements and commitments of other yet-to-be married couples are broken.

Some couples breakup and makeup, breakup again, then makeup and continue the circle till they either move past the stage or break it completely.

For some others, they give each other space without breaking up, work on themselves, and decide whether to move past the stage or break it up to start afresh with the next guy or lady.

Basically, couples either breakup or survive in this stage. This stage is a "necessary evil" in all relationships and marriages.

To get past this stage, couples/partners will learn to try not to force or control the other into being who they thought they were, but instead accommodate the flaws and make healthy moves to influence their partners to be who they want them to be while working on themselves too to be that partner their spouse dreams about. Partners must appreciate each other, realising who they are and what they have(not materialism please).

I must admit that this is easier said than done, but we just can't help it else our ex counts will be uncountable before we reach 60.

The irony of this stage is that partners that give it up enters into another relationship and goes through the same process over again.


I must warn/advice that people have to be careful not to engage in infidelity or a fall back relationship if they desire better deal as that will mess up the whole thing leaving them with guilt and inward shame/regret especially when the partner finds out(which he/she will definitely do).

This arises because they refuses to "peka iroko noticed above"

Stage 4: Real Love/Commitment
For those that survived stage 3, they begin to enjoy real love. The married couple feel so comfortable with each other. They help each other heal wounds of stage 3, they realise how much they are in love with each other, become so bonded and will even lose an arm for the sake of their partners. For the married, the man will always protect his wife, the woman protects her home and family against "invaders". They become each others bestfriend. This is the stage the unmarried are so convinced that they usually tie the knot with their sweethearts. At this stage, only death can come inbetween.

But partners must be careful as once in a while, stage 3 might raise its ugly head but the good news is that the bond of love and friendship between them will conquer any challenge or reincarnation of stage 3 as they have now got a common ground to handle disputes. This stage is also called Real Love stage.

Stage 5: Combining Forces To Change The World:
https://cdn.davidwolfe.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/shutterstock_144153838-750x563.jpg
Some couples get stuck in stage 4 (which is fine) but some others move further. They combine the power of two to do one thing together. It could range from being counsellors, engaging in community service, promoting a cause like Bill and Melinda Gate, book writing, politics like the Jonathans and the Obamas, entertainment like Olu Jacob and Joke Silva etc.

Their love is admired by all and their works affect the community. They improve each other as individuals and couples. Wow!


Everybody and every couple can achieve this ultimate stage of love as seen in stages 4 and 5. We have the responsibility of prioritising the kind of man or woman we want to end up with by factoring traits such as characters, habits, orientation, norms, faith etc of the would-be partners.

I have to state that no matter how you may try, a serial cheat, sexmaniac, chronic liar, physical abusers, selfish and greedy individual, heavy drunk etc will NEVER give that ideal love to you, at best you will be stuck in stage 3 till you either accept your fate and live miserably ever after and "take it to the Lord in prayer" or you get worn out and move on with the hurt, except you are comfortable with such traits and habits.

Minister of Transportation, Mr. Rotimi Amaechi, yesterday, said All Progressives Congress, APC, government did not promise to fix Nigeria’s problem within a year and cautioned those lamenting the economic hardship to wait till 2019 for the desired change.

Also, the Minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, cautioned Nigerians against making statements that could cause religious disharmony, warning that “no nation has ever survived religious war.”

The ministers spoke in Ilorin, Kwara State, during a North Central town hall meeting for the people of Kogi, Niger and Kwara states by the Federal Government.

Amaechi, who was the Director General of the Campaign Organisation of President Muhammadu Buhari during the 2015 elections, said though the Federal Government knows that things are difficult, Nigerians should wait till the end of the four-year mandate given to the administration before they can judge whether the government had performed or not.

According to him, “we did not promise you that those challenges will be solved in one year or you would have given us a one-year mandate. But you gave us four years mandate, so wait till the end of four years before you can conclude that we have not done well.”

While giving stewardship of his ministry, the minister lamented that the refusal of the National Assembly to approve the government’s borrowing plan from China was drawing the government back, urging the people from the three states to prevail on the National Assembly to approve the loan.

According to him, if accessed, the loan would enable the government embark on the rivatalisation of rail projects, which would create more jobs. He said: “Go and talk to your people in the National Assembly. They are the ones holding the Federal Government back from improving on the infrastructure that would provide mass employment for the people by stopping the President’s borrowing plan from China. They are the ones frustrating our efforts.”

On his stewardship, the Minister of Health, Professor Issac Adewole, said the Federal Government had secured a loan of $500 million to fund the revival of basic health institutions across the country.

He explained that N420 million was disbursed to each state in 2015 to fund the project in their respective states. Under the scheme, which would provide 1,000 basic health centres as already captured in the budget, the minister said a model health centre is being cited in each of the three senatorial districts of the three states. Other ministers who gave accounts of their stewardship were those of Budget and National Planning, Zainab Ahmed; Water, Sulyman Adamu; Mining and Steel (State), Abubakar Bwauari, and Trade and Investment, Ayishat Abubakar.

Former Aviation Minister Femi Fani-Kayode on Monday, asked the Federal High Court Abuja, to adjourn his case to allow him explore other options of settlement aside from going to trial.

Former Aviation Minister Femi Fani-Kayode on Monday, asked the Federal High Court Abuja, to adjourn his case to allow him explore other options of settlement aside from going to trial.

Counsel to Fani-Kayode, Mr Ahmed Raji (SAN), who made the application on his behalf said that since the sum of money involved was only N26 million, he believed that there were other options of settlement.
Raji added that moreover, he was new on the case and would need some time to go over the facts of the case to enable him defend his client effectively.

“My Lord, I am just coming into the case and so I crave your indulgence to enable me familiarize myself with the case.

“Secondly, looking at the facts of the case and the money involved, I believe that there are other options we can explore.

“The case involves the sum of N26 million and the law allows you to explore the option of plea bargain and so many other options rather than go through trial,” Raji said.

He said that if the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) was amenable to plea bargain, the defence would take the option. The prosecuting counsel, Mr Johnson Ojogbane, said he was not opposing the application.

Mr Femi Adesina, Special Adviser on Media and Publicity to the President has said the period of extension of President Muhammadu Buhari’s vacation in London was not specified because ““there is no vacuum in government’’.
Adesina, who stated this in an interview with the Nigerian Television Authority (NTA) on Sunday night, said the time was not stated so as enable the president to get clean bill of health from his doctors.

He said the president has already transmitted power to the Vice-President who had been performing his constitutional duties as acting president. According to Adesina, with the extension of his vacation, President Buhari now has adequate time to rest before he returns home.

“”When he was leaving on Jan. 19 we announced that it was a vacation during which he would also do routine medical check-ups. “

”Now, those check-ups have thrown up things that need to be further looked at and that is why he is asking for this extension of the vacation. “

The time is not stated and that reason is not far to seek because Mr President transmitted power to his vice, who is now the acting President. “

”So, he does not need to be under that pressure of time again because there is no vacuum in government, there is an acting president. “

”Therefore, the doctors can now exhaustively look at him and give him a clean bill of health before he returns home,’’ he said. On those spreading dangerous rumours on the president’s health conditions, the presidential aide urged them to desist from such ungodly acts. He charged them to always pray for the good health of the president and have goodwill toward their fellow human beings. “

My message will be what I also said before, goodwill, let us have goodwill towards our president.

“”We as human beings must have goodwill towards one another. Any man can be sick; any man can get well; any man can even die, we are mortals. Anybody can die; anybody falls sick can also get well. “

”Therefore, all those who peddle those evil, mischievous, malicious and malevolent rumours on social media need to have a rethink. Instead of all those evil wishes they should have goodwill towards the president,’’ he added. Adesina in an earlier statement disclosed that President Buhari had written the National Assembly, informing it of his desire to extend his leave in order to complete and receive the results of a series of tests recommended by his doctors.

“The President had planned to return to Abuja this evening, but was advised to complete the test cycle before returning. The notice has since been dispatched to the Senate President, and Speaker, House of Representatives.

“Mr. President expresses his sincere gratitude to Nigerians for their concern, prayers and kind wishes,” a statement earlier issued by Adesina on Sunday said. Newsmen report that President Muhammadu Buhari left Abuja for the United Kingdom on Jan. 19 on a short leave, which is part of his annual vacation. The President formally handed over mantle of leadership of the country to his Vice-President, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo.

The National Association of Nigerian Students has said students will go ahead with the planned protest scheduled for Monday to draw government attention to the suffering of the majority of Nigerians despite the withdrawal of the convener of the protest, Tuface From the match.

The Deputy Coordinator of NANS in the South West, Mr. Saheed Afolabi, said this while speaking with our correspondent on the telephone on Sunday.

ravaging the majority of Nigerians as a result of the economic crisis facing Nigeria.

“It is good that Tuface came up with the idea of the peaceful protest but we are going ahead with it even if he decides not to participate in it any longer. There is hunger in the land, it is too much and we the students are the hardest hit by the poor economy.

“Tuface’s case can be likened to the case of a bus conductor, who loads a bus and decides not to travel with it. We will go ahead with the planned protest with our without his ( Tuface) participation.”

He assured security agents of good conduct on the part of the students, saying their aim was not to cause mayhem but to let those in government be aware of the suffering of the masses.
