More Info RSS U.S. Declassified Memo Accuses Murtala Muhammad Of Genocide Written by Editor 14 February 2016 Local News Comments::4 Comments Brig. General Murtala Muhammad (Former Head of State of Nigeria) A United States declassified memo of August 18, 1975 showed that late Head of State, Brig. General Murtala Muhammad committed genocide against the Igbo during the Biafra Civil War. The memo from John E. Reinhardt to the U.S. Secretary of State titled: Nigeria After the Coup of July 28, said; This memorandum is presented in response to your request of August 14. It is concerned with the nature of the new government, its prospects, and continuing of American interests.” The memo declassified on May 4, 2006 with ref number PA/HO Department of State, E.O. 12958, as amended, contradicts the official position of the Nigerian government which exonerated Muhammad from being involved in the coup that sacked General Yakubu Gowon from power, as well as denying the genocide perpetrated by the Nigerian Army under the late Head of State’s command during the Nigeria-Biafra Civil War. On the new leadership, Reinhardt wrote: “The leader of the coup against General Yakubu Gowon is an erratic, vainglorious, impetuous, corrupt, vindictive, intelligent, articulate, daring Hausa. “Brigadier Murtala Muhammad was a prime force in the Nigerian coup of July 1966, which brought Gowon to power, and is one of the two principal plotters against Gowon for the past two years. He commanded a division during the Nigerian civil war , was involved in the only documented cases of genocide, won one important battle, and thereafter coasted for upwards of two years until Gowon finally removed him from command and placed him in charge of Army signals. A position he held until last month, though he combined his military role with the civilian position of Commissioner (Minister) of Communications from July, 1973 until the coup.” The memo further stated that: “Muhammad inherits from Gowon vast petroleum resources (potentially 3-3.5 million BPD, based on known reserves), considerable but neglected agricultural wealth, tremendous but untapped natural gas reserves, other minerals (coal, tin, columbite, uranium), by African standards an excellently trained civil service, and the dubious asset of eighty million people.” President Muhammadu Buhari on the 40th memorial lecture of the late Head of State said, Mohammed was on his way to putting Nigeria back to the path of order and discipline before his assassination in a military coup on February 13, 1976. Buhari said Mohammed showed “genuine interest and concern for up-and-coming officers like myself,” and “described him as a great personality who made huge sacrifice for the country.” pic of Brig.

| Celebrities › Floyd Mayweather's Bodyguard Is Possibly The World's Scariest Human Being by ericuzor(op): 9:38am On Feb 17, 2016 |
Does the world's greatest boxer REALLY need someone that size to look after him? There are lots of famous people who can't go out in public without a posse of massive security guards. Tiny little pop stars, tiny little X Factor judges, tiny little Hollywood actresses… these are the celebrities who need protecting. But the world's greatest boxer? The man more adept at punching people in the face than any other living human? You would think he would be more than capable of looking after himself. However, Floyd Mayweather Jr has always enjoyed doing things to excess - so perhaps we shouldn't be surprised that he has not only hired a bodyguard, but the BIGGEST BODYGUARD IN THE WORLD. Have your say in our comments section below We can't be sure Mayweather's security man, currently following him around in Milan, actually qualifies for that title. But look at the size of him! The unbeaten boxing legend - who is visiting Italy during a break in his tour of the UK - probably doesn't need someone to watch his back, let alone a bloke of this enormity. After all, how the hell would an assailant ever get near the fastest boxer who's ever lived? Still, in the mind of Mr Mayweather, the recruitment of this giant is probably nothing to do with security. For him, a huge security guard is just an accessory a man with his money should have… www.mirror.co.uk/sport/row-zed/floyd-mayweathers-bodyguard-possibly-worlds-7350106 1 Share

| Crime › EFCC Arrests Amosu’s Wife, Recovers $1mn From Soakaway Pit by ericuzor(op): 9:40am On Feb 14, 2016 |
– Mrs Lara Amosu was arrested last week in Abuja – The sum of $1 million was discovered in a soakaway pit in Amosu’s Lagos residence – Amosu’s properties have been confiscated The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has arrested the wife of the immediate past Chief of Air Staff (CAS), Air Marshal Adesola Amosu (rtd) in relation to the ongoing investigation into the $2.1 billion arms procurement fund. Today.ng reports that Mrs. Lara Amosu was arrested last week in Abuja by EFCC operatives, adding that she has been in the anti-graft custody in Lagos since last week. A source disclosed that Lara’s lawyer has been making attempts to secure her release but had not gotten any positive result. She was arrested after the sum of N3 billion was traced to her bank accounts. The money is believed to be part of the sum her husband is being probed for. The source further hinted that some properties belonging to the former CAS were also held in trust for him by Lara and her children. There were earlier reports that the anti-graft watch dog discovered a whooping sum of N17.5 billion in the accounts of wives of three airforce chiefs. The monies were reportedly disseminated in various banks accounts. A source acquainted with the ongoing arms probe disclosed that N13 billion was traced to the bank accounts of the wife of a retired Air Vice Marshal, who held strategic position in the Nigeria Air Force (NAF), adding that N1.5 billion was also discovered in the account of another serving senior officer. These officers handled the finance, budget and accounts of NAF. The source said: “Shortly after Amosu was picked up in Abuja, his wife, Lara, was subsequently arrested. Investigations conducted showed that some of the monies the former Chief of Air Staff made through some contracts and procurements in NAF were traced to his wife’s accounts. “About N3 billion was traced to the wife’s accounts while some assets acquired by the former service chief was in her name and some others in her company’s name. “So, Lara is an accessory to a crime. The proceeds with her are from the arms funds. As we prosecute her husband, she must also be held accountable.” It was gathered that the anti-graft agency pulled out the sum of $1 million cash from Amosu’s residence in Badagary, Lagos. The foreign currency was discovered when operatives carried out a search on the house. The source said: “In continuation of the investigation into the arms probe, the EFCC operatives took Amosu to his residence in Badagry. After a thorough search of the residence, a fresh small ‘soakaway’ pit was discovered in the compound. The operatives suspected foul play, which informed the breaking of the ‘soakaway’. Surprisingly, $1 million was found in it. The money was subsequently confiscated.” The EFCC arrested Amosu, Adigun, and Air Commodore O. Gbadebo two weeks ago over their involvement in the $2.1 billion arms scandal. It was gathered that the EFCC flew the indicted officers to Lagos in an airforce aircraft. They were allegedly discreetly kept in a hotel. The EFCC mobilised the indicted officers to assets traced to them and suspected to have been acquired with monies gotten from the arms deal. The anti-graft agency had sealed off some of the said properties.Several choice properties acquired by the man have been sealed off by the EFCC. These include the ultra Mordern St. Solomon's Hospital at Adeniyi Jones Ikeja worth about 85 million Naira. There is also another house on Adeyemo Alakija Street Ikeja near the Ghanaian High Commission with a market value of over 200 million Naira. Perhaps the biggest of them is the involvement of AVM J B Adigun, the immediate past Chief of Accounts and Budgeting of the Nigeria Air Force. That one bought properties all over the place. Some of them include a block of 12 luxury flats at Park View Estate, Ikoyi worth over 1.7 billion Naira. There is also another block of luxury flats on Sinari Daranijo Street, Victoria Island Lagos with a market value of about 1.8 billion Naira. He also owns a parcel of land on Bourdillion Drive Ikoyi worth about 908 million Naira, four terrace terrace duplexes on Agede Street off Aminu Kano Crescent, Wuse Zone 2 Abuja. All of these properties were acquired in the last two years. There is also AVM O O Gbadebo who was Director of Finance and Budget of the Nigeria Airforce. That one also has properties scattered all over the place and is the currently managing the said St. Solomon's Hospital Ikeja on behalf of his boss, Adigun. AVM Adigun's wife has reportedly fled the country and the EFCC is looking for her desperately. These are the leaders of the Nigeria Air Force who were given the sum of $930,500,690.00 to buy arms and ammunition for our soldiers to fight Boko Haram. In one incident, they spent $136.9 million on two second hand Mi-24M helicopters instead of the recommended Mi-35M series. Even the ones they bought were allegedly not airworthy at the time of delivery and meanwhile, a brand new unit of that helicopter costs about $30 million, yet they bought two second ones at a cost of $136.9 million. Everyday, people come out here to tell us how the value of the Naira is falling. Why won't it fall? Why? In the midst of this kind of stealing? Yet, this was what people wanted us to continue with. Even if Buhari does not achieve any other thing in four years but succeeds in dealing with these crooks and thieves, I will be satisfied. Meanwhile, this is just for the Airforce o. We have not heard about the Army and Navy

| Politics › EFCC Invades Former VP Sambo’s Office In Search Of Evidence To Nail Jonathan by ericuzor(op): 4:10pm On Feb 02, 2016 |
Still shopping for evidence to nail top Nigerians who might have benefitted from the $2.1 billion arms cash, operatives of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, have raided the Abuja office of former Vice President, Namadi Sambo, carting away $50,000 from his safe. The raid was carried out, weekend, on the building which houses a top European High Commission’s Visa Processing Centre opposite the National Defence College, Abuja, throwing some occupants into confusion. A source close to the operation confirmed to Vanguard, yesterday, that the operatives broke into the safe kept by the former vice president and removed whatever valuable they found, including top branded wrist watches, assets declaration forms, and list of landed property. The raid, it was learned, followed the discovery that one of Sambo’s aide, known as Daboh, was found to have collected N25 million from the embattled National Publicity Secretary of the PDP, Olisah Metuh, as part of the sum he got from the former NSA, Dasuki Sambo. Although Daboh was arrested on January 11 by the EFCC and later released after taking statement from him, the operatives swooped on the ex-VP’s office on Saturday with the hope of extracting “incriminating evidence.” The raid took place barely a few days after Sambo had moved some vital documents from his residence to the office in the Central Business District, in many bags, known as “Ghana-Must-Go, which were thought to contain foreign currencies The raid also coincided with the trip of Sambo to the United Kingdom, Saudi Arabia and Egypt, where he is undergoing treatment on one of his legs and for some religious purposes. Sambo’s lawyers protest invasion But the raid, it was learned, has infuriated Sambo’s lawyers, who felt that it was improper for the EFCC to break into the office of their client without a valid search warrant. In response to the development, the lawyers, yesterday, fired a strongly worded letter of protest to the EFCC Chairman, Ibrahim Magu, asking him to direct his men to repair the destroyed property in the office. But the EFCC is reported to have left behind three armed policemen to guard the place until the doors and other damaged property were repaired. A source close to the former vice president confirmed last night that they were trying to get in touch with him and brief him on the ugly development. The source said: “I think the EFCC operatives were disappointed that they could not find any reasonable amount of money or any serious evidence of corruption against the former president. “They had thought that the former vice president had taken some money to the office which they could take as evidence against him. But they were disappointed as they did not get anything tangible from the office,” the source said. By vanguard..

| Politics › Buhari Reveals - I Am Irritated By Niger Delta Claim Of Oil As Our Own by ericuzor(op): 9:30am On Feb 02, 2016 |
Nigerian President Muhammadu Buhari attends the second day of the summit of G7 nations at Schloss Elmau on June 8, 2015 near Garmisch-Partenkirchen, Germany | Sean Gallup/Getty President Muhammadu Buhari revealed his “irritation” with the agitations of the people of the Niger Delta for fairness in the distribution of the nation’s oil wealth. Buhari made this slip at a town hall meeting with Nigerians living in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia on Saturday, January 30, 2016. While speaking with Nigerians on the topic of the economic challenge the country faced over drop in crude oil prices, the President delved into the topic of oil theft in the Niger Delta. He expressed anger at claims the people of the region make concerning the natural resources in their land and linked his irritation to having fought in the Nigerian Civil war in which over three million people, mostly Igbos and minority tribes of the South South were killed. “The theft of the oil market by some Nigerians that happen to live there who feel that the oil belongs to them and not the country is an irritating thing for those of us who participated in the civil war for 30 months in which at least two million Nigerians were killed,” he said. He regretted that the international oil market had collapsed, resulting in poor income for the country. There have been renewed restiveness in the Niger Delta region over the perceived anti-South South stance of the Buhari government. Militants blew up strategic oil pipelines in Delta and Bayelsa States. An associate of Buhari and APC strategist, Colonel Hassan Stanislous-Labo (Rtd) has publicly called for an Odi-style genocide in the region if the communities fail to produce the perpetrators of the pipeline explosions. This call came, even as Buhari’s government said it would hold the leaders of the region responsible for the action of the militants against the country’s oil installations . Following the announcement of the cancellation of the Maritime University project by the Buhari government, Ijaw leaders and groups have continued to agitate against the decision which is seen as a manifestation of Buhari’s “hatred” for the region. A former Niger Delta warlord, Government Ekpemupolo popularly known as Tompolo faces legal problems over a corruption case filed by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission against him. He maintains his innocence and expressed distrust in the legal system to grant him justice as he disregarded court orders for him to appear before the court. Tompolo says he is being prosecuted by the Buhari government because he refused to support the ruling party, the All Progressives Congress (APC). Buhari’s anti-corruption efforts is widely perceived by people of the Niger Delta as a witch-hunt because only targets officials who served under former President Goodluck Jonathan. Jonathan is from the oil-rich state of Bayelsa and is the only president of Nigeria that hail from the South South region. The Niger Delta accounts for over 80% of Nigeria’s income base for the past 55 years... source: www.thetrentonline.com/i-am-irritated-that-people-of-niger-delta-feel-regions-oil-belongs-to-them-buhari-reveals

| Politics › Bombshell!we’ll Massacre Everyone In N.delta As OBJ Did PMB Associate Rtd Hassan by ericuzor(op): 9:12am On Jan 29, 2016 |
President Muhammadu Buhari’s friend and stalwart of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), Col. Hassan Stanislous-Labo has called for a military invasion of the Niger Delta communities where pipelines were vandalised a few weeks ago. Colonel Hassan, as he is popularly referred to, made this call on Channels Television, Monday, January 25, 2015 where he said that the Nigerian Army should invade the communities in Delta State and massacre the people of the communities as the military did to the community of Odi during the President Olusegun Obasanjo regime. According to him, “the communities that refuse to produce the militants should be levelled”. The military invaded the community of Odi in Bayelsa State in 2006 and murdered at least 2,500 unarmed civilians. Every building in the village was burnt down by the rampaging troops except an Anglican Church and the community health centre. In 2013, a Federal High Court ordered the Federal Government of Nigeria to pay N37 billion damages to the residents of Odi for the act of genocide perpetrated by the Nigerian Army. In the disturbing segment, the retired military colonel dismissed the Channels TV anchor who reminded him that a genocide was an abuse of human rights. Stanislous-Labo is a leading media surrogate of the Buhari government who has set an agenda for the APC-led federal government. He is president and chief executive of Hakes Group.

| Politics › Must Read!! Unjust Structure Oppresses Igbo, Other Nationalities — Uko by ericuzor(op): 10:37am On Jan 28, 2016 |
Evangelist Elliot Uko is the founder of Igbo Youths Movement, IYM, Deputy Secretary of the Igbo Leaders of Thought, ILT and leader of Soth-East Democratic Coalition, SEDC. In this chat with Vanguard, he disagrees with comments that the Igbo are not marginalized in Nigeria. He also backed total war against corruption and stressed that restructuring the country into fiscal federalism will ensure justice, equity, harmony and robust development. During his first media chat last month, President Muhammadu Buhari said that Ndigbo are not marginalized. What is your take on this? The world was shocked at the assertion by the President. But Ndigbo were not surprised. They have his records as a young Lieutenant in the army, a Captain and Major during the civil war till date. Majority of our people believe he has passionate hatred for Ndigbo. His friends deny that but clearly he doesn’t seem to care how Ndigbo perceive him. The world saw his emotions at the tail of the interview, it was clear to all if he loves Ndigbo or not. But the situation is that we don’t need any body’s love. We want equity and justice that have been denied us for decades. Any oppressor can pretend he doesn’t know Nigeria is built on injustice.Collective future How far we will continue to pretend is unclear. Those who are afraid of enthroning true federalism and those who allow envy to rule them are stubbornly toying with our collective future. Injustice and peace are incompatible. Equity and justice ensure peace. Only a particular section of the country thinks Nigeria is great the way it is. Other sections want true federalism. How exactly are Ndigbo marginalized? Ndigbo are not marginalized. We are oppressed. The deliberate unjust structure of Nigeria oppresses many ethnic nationalities, especially those of the Middle Belt, South-South and of course the South-East. The case of the South-East is about envy really. Everybody else believes they should be checked, they should be held down or else they move on top. The attitude is; “hold them down by all means”. This decades-long attitude is being rejected by the younger generation of Ndigbo. Apart from Ndigbo who are in government and the very wealthy, the other 98 per cent of Ndigbo feel unwanted in Nigeria. Nigeria makes it difficult, if not impossible for Ndigbo to feel proudly Nigerian. Everything is deliberately designed to keep them out. Firstly, there is an un-discussed fear of Ndigbo and a desire by certain other people to dominate others politically. This cocktail of passions produces a huge dislocation in distribution of resources and projects. Since 1970, Ndigbo have been left with the short end of the stick, strangely, everybody seems not to mind, maybe because we seem to succeed in other areas of the economy. This mindset of “don’t let them climb the political ladder” held on to for so long by enemies of Ndigbo gave the younger Ndigbo the impression that Nigeria is better off without them. Justice, equity and fair play keep countries like Ghana peaceful and admirable. Those responsible for the bitterness in Nigeria know it, it is just convenient for them to subdue others and pretend about it. Nigeria’s amusing and impossible census figures are not designed to enthrone peace. Those short-changed by these truly amazing figures will remain very bitter until they are corrected; people believe Calabar seaport is made inactive to stagnate the economic growth of Eastern Nigeria. So everybody is forced to use the Lagos ports. The deliberate and humiliating exclusion of Ndigbo in the current security architecture of Nigeria is deliberately designed to rub it in that they are not part of Nigeria. Security architecture Ndigbo dwell in all of 774 Local governments of Nigeria. Issues of security affects them most, do you know that if the Federal Government is about to declare war today and Mr. president summons an emergence meeting of over two dozen heads of security agencies to take the decision together, with the Vice President, Senate President, Speaker House of Representative, Service Chiefs, Police I.G., NSA, Defence Minister, Chief of Defence Staff, Dg DSS, DgNIA, Dg DMI, etc there will be no Igbo man there. Somebody deliberately designed it that way to push Ndigbo out of Nigeria There are over 45 million Ndigbo and somebody pretends he does not know that Ndigbo are completely excluded from the Security Council. This fact cannot encourage unity. Hatred as a virus is unhealthy to a heterogeneous and multi-cultural country as ours. Add this to the unworkable structure of 36 (mostly unviable states) created principally by one section of the country and deliberately skewed against Ndigbo with Eastern region making absolutely no contribution to their creation. 774 local governments were preponderantly created to favour and disfavour some regions. The stubborn refusal to restructure Nigeria along the lines of true federalism is the biggest disservice those who hate equity are visiting on all of us. The unhealthy delineation of federal constituencies in such a lopsided manner continues to generate bitterness. The killings of easterners for over 60 years now without any hope of punishing the perpetrators, from the Kano riots of 1953, to reactions over cartoon in far away Denmark, Ndigbo are usually slaughtered like chicken. Others include: Deliberate denial of constitutional citizenship rights of Nigerians wherever they may reside and ethnic and religious sentiments rule the land. Painful disparity The painful disparity in cut-off mark for UTME scores, politics of exclusion and nauseating nepotism in all arms of the civil service and federal parasatals, decades of deliberate denial of old Eastern region of needed infrastructure, horrific killings and rape by the Fulani herdsmen, total manipulation of the electoral system to enforce predetermined outcomes that would only continue the decayed and offensive format of carpet baggers always influencing the political leadership of our region, the list is endless. What is the solution? A new constitution built on equity, regional autonomy, true fiscal federalism is the way to go. It is just that some people love dominating and oppressing others. They think that restructuring Nigeria will cost them certain advantages they are enjoying already. They therefore conveniently pretend they don’t know that Nigerians are sick and desperate for justice and equity. The truth is the Federal Government is underestimating the resolve, the strength and the bitterness of large number of young people who are completely tired of Nigeria. How do you rate the South Eastern governors? The governors have constraints. The current political structure makes it impossible for Nigeria to grow. Our economic growth is strangulated by an unworkable political structure that has a very powerful center and very weak and dependent states. In spite of these difficulties our governors are doing well. http://www.vanguardngr.com/2016/01/unjust-structure-oppresses-igbo-other-nationalities-uko/

| Politics › Why Igbo Want To Colonise S-south — Sagir Muhammad by ericuzor(op): 9:41am On Jan 28, 2016 |
Alhaji Sagir Muhammad, who holds the title Waziri Ringim was the leader of defunct Arewa Peoples Congress, APC. Known as a front line General Ibrahim Babangida loyalist, Muhammad, who retired from the military as intelligence officer in the 1990’s, in this interview spoke on burning national issues. By AbdulSalam Muhammad What do you think is responsible for an upsurge in the activities of the insurgents despite claims that they have been technically defeated? Insurgency is the most difficult aspect of military operation because you don’t know your enemy, you don’t know where he is, you don’t know the kind of tactics he uses which is not conventional tactics, you don’t know the kind of logistic he uses and you don’t know where the logistics are or where they are hidden. And above all why it is extremely difficult is that the insurgents are usually embedded within the civil society. If you probably know where their training ground is like Sambisa there may be other training grounds within the civil society. As you are trying to go to Sambisa you find that the insurgents are fighting you from the back, the right and the left. Then you find that dividing your forces to fight the insurgents is extremely very difficult and probably when you are trying to go to North-East, you hear bomb blasts in Lokoja, Sokoto, Kano, etc. Now tell me how do you plan for this kind of operation? It is very difficult. In September I heard an interview with the press over the Federal Government’s deadline to obliterate the insurgency. I said it is a mistake to put deadline because of the complexity and the intricacies involved in fighting the insurgency. Fighting the insurgency Sagir Muhammad Now, the bulk of the fighting forces of the insurgents had be rooted out but the problem is that so long as there is bomb blast and people are being killed the insurgency has not ended. It is not a question of capturing ground. It is a question of ending the state of criminality and the use of human being to commit terror. It would still go on because we are saying “we would end the insurgency” but we are not doing anything to tackle the psyche of the insurgents, the foot soldiers and supporters of the insurgency who are everywhere. So it has to be a four-face operation: One – to diminish the effectiveness of the insurgents to launch high level attack like using anti-tank and high calibre weapons. Two, to use our intelligence and liaison to stop insurgents who are within the society that can turn themselves into human weapon. Three, there has to be spiritual counselling and guidance to get captured or repented insurgents reintegrated into the society and to conform with the acceptable norms of the society. Four, there should be rehabilitation and reconciliation. Are you suggesting dialogue as a way out? If there is no dialogue how do you stop the remnants, supporters, children of those killed from metamorphosing into another insurgents? There has to be a way of making them know that what they are doing is not helping them and that their concept of Jihad is off mark. If they are fighting for the cause of Islam, they are killing Muslims more than they are killing anybody. So you find that we can only do that by peaceful means. Is it appropriate to describe the current agitation by the Indigenous People of Biafra for Biafra Republic as a transfer of aggression to the Nigerian state? Those Indigenous People of Biafra have a hidden agenda. Their hidden agenda is to declare Biafra and then go recolonize the South-South. They would go and within a question of less than one month they would capture all those South-South and colonise the oil fields that is the agenda of IPOB. If you look at the East, it is land-locked; they don’t have any serious minerals apart from coal. Even the geography and geology of the East is so poor that even to build a good house they cannot unless you build a house in a bush because it’s all bush, it’s all forested and that is why you find the majority of the elite Igbo are now half of the owners of the houses in Abuja. If the Indigenous People of Biafra are now saying that they want to have Biafra what are you going to do with more than three quarters of the Igbo who are outside the East? Those in Kano, those in Lagos what are you going to do with then? Will you take all those people back to Biafra? They have no houses to live, they have no means of livelihood. They make money outside and not in the East so you find that they are crawling into fantasy world. They were talking vaguely during former President Goodluck Jonathan administration but what is really happening is they still say that Nigeria is not fair to the Igbo. One, up till now they do not have an Igbo President. http://www.vanguardngr.com/2016/01/why-igbo-want-to-colonise-s-south-sagir-muhammad/

PARIS, JANUARY 26, 2016: (DGW) – Contrary to claims by President Muhammadu Buhari that the detained IPOB leader, Nnamdi Kanu travelled to Nigeria from the United Kingdom without any international passport, a coalition of Human Rights Organizations has launched an in-depth investigation into the accusation made by the president and findings have indeed shown that President Muhammadu Buhari lied.. The detained leader of the Indigenous People of Biafran leader, Nnamdi Kanu has dual citizenship and could not have got on board any aircraft to Africa or the country of his nativity without a valid international passport. Below is the Press Release made available to IGBERE TV by the Southeast Based Coalition of Human Rights Organizations: (ONITSHA, NIGERIA, JANUARY 26, 2016)-It is the authoritative information of the Southeast Based Coalition of Human Rights Organizations (SBCHROs); comprising International Society for Civil Liberties & the Rule of Law (Intersociety), Anambra State Branch of the Civil Liberties Organization (CLO), Center for Human Rights & Peace Advocacy (CHRPA), Human Rights Club (a project of LRRDC)(HRC), Forum for Justice, Equity & Defense of Human Rights (FJEDHR), Society Advocacy Watch Project (SPAW), Anambra Human Rights Forum (AHRF), Southeast Good Governance Forum (SGGF), International Solidarity for Peace & Human Rights Initiative (ITERSOLIDARITY), Street Law Africa (LawAfrica) and Igbo Ekunie Initiative (pan Igbo rights advocacy group) that detained Citizen Nnamdi Kanu had never returned to Nigeria or traveled to other parts of the world including his second home-State of the United Kingdom without following and applying legitimate diplomatic processes and procedures. Specifically, he did not return to Nigeria via Lagos, Southwest Nigeria in October 2015 without international passport of Nigerian origin. By convention or treatise (international law), which is applicable in Nigeria and the United Kingdom, Citizen Nnamdi Kanu is a member of international, Nigerian and UK citizenship. Also by the provisions of Chapter Three of the 1999 Constitution of Nigeria, Citizen Nnamdi Kanu is a citizen of Nigeria by birth or parenthood and by the provisions of the relevant laws of the UK; he is also a UK citizen by birth or naturalization. Generally, in the eyes of international law, he is a dual national of UK and Nigeria. Further, by relevant treaties of the European Union and the ECOWAS, Citizen Nnamdi Kanu can enter, leave, stay or live in any member-State of EU or ECOWAS; provided he has UK (EU) or ECOWAS (Nigerian) passport. Citizen Nnamdi Kanu as an international citizen of UK and Nigeria backgrounds is entitled to and has two international passports of UK and Nigerian citizenship and they are fully and steadily used when he is traveling out of Nigeria to UK or coming to Nigeria from UK. Traditionally and specifically in Citizen Nnamdi Kanu’s case; visa is not required of him when he is leaving UK to Nigeria with Nigerian Passport or when he is traveling to UK from Nigeria with UK Passport. By law, Citizen Nnamdi Kanu is mandated to show his Nigerian Passport to UK immigration officials at any UK international airport enroute Nigeria and to Nigerian immigration officials on arrival at any Nigerian international airport; likewise using and showing his UK Passport to immigration officials when traveling to UK from Nigeria. By law, Citizen Nnamdi Kanu is under no legal or moral obligation whatsoever to show or surrender all or either of his two international passports to anybody including the DSS operatives in his hotel room. His right to privacy and protection of his property including his two international passports is sacrosanct and unquestionable. Production of Citizen Nnamdi Kanu’s international passport (s) can only be ordered by a court of competent records. Neither President Muhammadu Buhari nor his DSS operatives has any legal or moral power or authority to coerce Citizen Nnamdi Kanu into showing or surrendering his international passport(s) under the guise of arrest or investigation; except by personal volition of Citizen Nnamdi Kanu. This is more so when Citizen Kanu’s violent arrest was carried out hours, if not days after he had returned to Nigeria and checked into a hotel. President Muhammadu Buhari’s assertion on 30th December 2015 that “are you aware that that man called Kanu holds two UK and Nigerian citizenship and entered into Nigeria without a passport”, is nothing but a clear case of “presidential ignorance and falsehood derived from unprofessional and falsified intelligence reports”. The falsehood is today compounded further and transformed into “investigative perjury”to the extent that the Federal Ministry of Justice had adopted it as its main ground of counter affidavit and opposition to the application filed by Citizen Nnamdi Kanu’s defense lawyers before an Abuja Division of the Federal High Court. The Federal Government’s claim that “Kanu had admitted (to them) that he is a British citizen and that he sneaked into the country”, and that “there is the possibility of him sneaking out if admitted to bail”; is fallacious, vexatious, unfounded, spurious, intimidating, insulting, coercing, magisterial and totally untrue .Why Citizen Kanu Should Be Granted Humanitarian Bail: Today marks 102 days since Citizen Nnamdi Kanu was arrested and detained by DSS on 14th October 2015 without conditional or unconditional release. In the history of democracy in Nigeria, no citizen except Citizen Nnamdi Kanu had been arrested and detained for 90 days without trial or release on pretrial bail. There is a difference between a suspect-citizen detained on orders of a court of competent records while undergoing trial and a merely accused citizen detained in long pretrial captivity without pretrial bail release or trial. That is to say that Citizen Nnamdi Kanu is the first and only citizen arrested and detained for over 90 days without trial or pretrial bail or unconditional release under the present 1999 Constitution or since the 1999 Constitution came into force in 1999. Citizen Kanu is also the first citizen to be detained under the same Constitution in gross breach of its Section 35 (4) (a) (b) by being detained for over 60 days without trial or released on bail. Four consequential court orders associated with his right to personal liberty including bail and unconditional releases were flouted by DSS and President Buhari with reckless abandon. This is also the first time in the history of criminal justice administration under Nigeria’s democratic pluralism whereby pretrial case files of accused citizens are recklessly duplicated and leaked to media before judicial arraignment and trial of the accused citizens. The stark case in point is the case file of Citizen Nnamdi Kanu & ors, which has been made hazardous and recklessly polluted by DSS and its hired hostile media outfits. Information contained in the case file including the accused citizens’ confessional statements are also strongly believed to have been tempered with and doctored or manipulated. To the extent that the case file of Citizen Nnamdi Kanu & ors, who are merely accused persons yet to be put on trial or convicted; is duplicated by DSS investigators and handed over to hostile media elements for purpose of spreading falsehood and propaganda; requires urgent judicial attention, notice and intervention. It is on these grounds that we call on Hon Justice James Tsoho of Court Three Division of the Federal High Court in Abuja, to courageously grant Citizen Nnamdi Kanu and ors humanitarian bail on Friday January 29, 2016 during his much awaited ruling on their bail application. Though by virtue of Sections 158 and 162 of the Administration of Criminal Justice Act of 2015, accusations of treasonable felony and unlawful possession of firearms leveled against them are bailable; but it is our considered opinion that Citizen Nnamdi Kanu in particular has brazenly been denied the Constitutional protection, rights and remedies; having being held in manner and circumstances frowned at by the Constitution. By humanitarian judicial bail; we mean a bail condition accorded to a prisoner of conscience facing State persecution for expressing his political thoughts without use or advocating of violence. Suchhumanitarian bail condition(s) include self recognition, liberty inviolate undertaking from UK High Commission or judicial deposition of his UK and Nigerian Passports. We also call for the speedy and fair trial and of Citizen Nnamdi Kanu and ors.

| Health › Igbo Professor Produced Antivirt, Anti Viral Drug Cure Aids In Just 2 Months by ericuzor(op): 4:36pm On Jan 24, 2016 |
Nigerian Professor Produces Antivirt, An Anti Viral Drug For Treating HIV AIDS. Despite doubts in some quarters about the authenticity of his claims, Professor Maduike Ezeibe of Michael Okpara University of Agriculture Umudike (MOUAU), Abia State, has insisted that his recent therapy for the dreaded HIV and AIDS is real and effective. The discovery of the therapy, Ezeibe said, was a major scientific breakthrough in the search for a cure to the global pandemic. He said after 19 years of hard work, he was able to discover the therapy and his research was eventually published in the British Journal of Medicine & Medical Research. The Professor of Veterinary Medicine, who obtained his first degree in same discipline at the University of Nigeria Nsukka in 1986, Masters in Ruminant Medicine, and doctorate degree in Canine Medicine all in UNN, said he moved to MOUAU on leave of absence. Speaking with Southern City News in his office, he said his research into the therapy known as ‘Antivirt’ (Anti-Viral Therapy), dated back to 1994 when he took the challenge to be part of the global solution to the HIV/AIDS scourge ravaging humanity. Ezeibe said his work had been published by the American-based medical journal known as The Health. He said he decided to publish his research work on the therapy so as to prove anyone who would doubt that a black man could develop HIV/AIDS cure, wrong. He boasted that the experiment remained authentic and verifiable in any part of the world. According to him, two essential minerals – aluminum silicate (kaolin) and magnesium silicate, used in the production of the therapy, have large deposits in Umuahia and parts of Abia State. This, he said, would make the therapy cheaper and more affordable than the old anti-retroviral therapy. He added that the therapy would take an average of two to three months to cure HIV/AIDS patient. http://www.naijaonpoint.com/news/nigerian-professor-produces-antivirt-anti-viral-drug-that-cures-hiv-aids-in-2-months.html

| Crime › Nollywood Actor’s Stomach Bursts After Surgery (photos) by ericuzor(op): 9:04am On Jan 24, 2016 |
After the issue of blood transfusion was settled, Okoye said that the simple act of moving the patient from the emergency ward to the theatre by the two female porters became another hindrance to the effort to save the actor, as he said that they were very sluggish. His offer of assistance to help push the wheeled stretcher was rebuffed. His words: “At the end of the day I was just pleading, petting and begging and they were able to move the young man in a stretcher to the theater door. Then an argument ensued between them. Friends and my brother who came along with me wanted to shout but I pleaded with them to calm down so that the matter would not get worse. From what I observed, they don’t really care about people, whether they make it or not. After all, they did not cause the accident and, therefore, not interested in whether the person lives or dies. That is the impression people have about the hospital.” All through the duration of the surgery that lasted for four hours, Okoye waited anxiously. When it was completed, Okocha was wheeled into the male special ward. “I don’t want to mention how many people that gave up as I was waiting on the same night as I was at the emergency unit. I don’t want to talk about an accident victim brought in there and was not treated because those who brought him could not pay N500 for him. And I had to pay for him. I am not talking about another accident victim who was brought in that night and what a nurse could only say was, ‘Imagine the kind of alcohol smell that is coming from his mouth, look at what he has done to himself,’ while the guy was bleeding profusely,” Okoye said. Even after the surgery had been done, it was as if the devil was still determined to harvest the actor. More trouble came his way after he returned to the hospital to have the external stitches removed. What happened immediately after the stitches were removed was shocking, as Okocha further narrated. His words: “He was just sitting down and all of a sudden we heard a noise like a balloon burst. Behold, everything in Okocha’s stomach came out. You know it was a major operation. “Nurses rushed over, looked at him and ran away. Anybody who looked at his dangling intestines could not behold the sight. It was a gory sight. But Okocha was courageous enough to hold his intestines from dropping on the ground and he turned his face away from his hands so that he would not faint at the sight of his own intestines coming out. “After about 25 minutes the so-called surgeon came in again. He went back to start all over and Charles began to go through the pains he had a few days ago. It was an annoying thing. When they came to the ward they said openly that they were supposed to have used nylon three for the stitching but what was available was nylon one and they had to use what they had at least to save his life that day. Why I am angry is that they could have told us to rally round and get the right material and any other thing they needed. Any drug given to a patient at the teaching hospital is paid for before it can be administered. “Is it not a reasonable step that they should have sent us to get the right stitching material, that is, nylon three, to avoid the bursting? They were bold to tell us why the stomach burst. That is the reason I’m mad. I have never seen a thing like that before. And we heard that the nylon is only sold for N700.00. “I know that I’m nobody, just a young man who is trying to survive. But I have contacts through my business as an event planner. I have been sending text messages to important people I know, pleading with them to get the federal government to conduct investigation into the way the teaching hospitals operate. This thing must be investigated. People are undergoing bad moments in some of these government-owned hospitals.” Sunday Sun reporter met with the Chairman, Medical and Advisory Committee, NAUTH, Nnewi, Dr Evaristus Ede Afiadigwe, who stood in for the Chief Medical and Advisory Committee, NAUTH, Nnewi, Dr Evaristus Ede Afiadigwe, who stood in for the Chief Medical Director (CMD), Professor Anthony Igwegbe, and he dismissed the claims of Mr Okoye even though he admitted that there was an incident of a burst stomach involving the Nollywood actor, Okocha. He said there was no negligence in the treatment of Okocha. He noted that the bursting of a stomach was a medical experience that could occur any time. His words: “I heard about the eruption, stomach burst. The doctor wanted to use Nylon 2 Defilon but what was available was Nylon 1. It is not possible that everything you need, the number and quality will be available at every given time. And you know that was on a Sunday. But the Nylon 1 is used and one still gets a perfect result. I don’t know why this should be made an issue. I investigated the incident by myself and discovered that there was no negligence. The Nylon 1 and Nylon 2 are of high quality not even the 3 you are talking about. Life and death are actually in the hands of God. We did everything humanly possible to save Charles Okocha’s life. And this is what one should be grateful for instead of painting the hospital black. “We do conduct audit on how our doctors and nurses work and we have a disciplinary committee, which handles erring medical personnel. There is no negligence in this matter. Some doctors even use Nylon 1 ordinarily. It is just that the doctor said he wanted to use Nylon 2. Nylon 2 was available in the hospital but it wasn’t available at the time the doctor was doing the surgery. There was a repeat surgery and it was successful,” Afiadigwe said. He later took the reporter to the theatre where he showed him the Nylon 1 and 2, still arguing that either of them could be used in the absence of the other. He also took him to the male ward to see Okocha whom, he said, would soon be discharged, even though Okocha could not react to questions put him as he was still in pains.

| Sports › Real Madrid President Bans Cristiano Ronaldo From Travelling To Morocco Read Why by ericuzor(op): 3:52pm On Jan 23, 2016 |
Real Madrid president Florentino Perez has reportedly banned star player Cristiano Ronaldo from traveling to Morocco to see best friend Badr Hari. According to a report by El Espanyol, transcribed by Spanish paper Sport, Perez banned Cristiano Ronaldo from his Morocco trips due to his poor form, weary that the player could lose form due to exhaustion and fatigue from his frequent travels. t is well known that Cristiano Ronaldo frequently flies to Morocco to spend time with his heavyweight kickboxer friend, Badr Hari. Some times he flies in with his private jet four times a week to Morocco with some media outlets suggesting a gay relationship between the pair. From Monday to Thursday, Ronaldo gets his £14m private jet at 3PM, after Madrid training finishes, to Marrakech before returning to Madrid at night. Whatever his reasons are for doing this, Perez wants it to stop as he believes it’s affecting Ronaldo’s contribution on the pitch, despite scoring 27 goals in all competitions so far. Perez has even asked his friend Mohamed VI, the King of Morocco, to inform him when Ronaldo comes into the country. If this is true ,it could affect Ronaldo's relationship with the president and spark fresh rumours of the player's exit from the club. http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/cristiano-ronaldo-banned-morocco-trips-7229467

“From December 23, we started hearing information that he was seen with my daughter, but I did not believe it because Success is very close to him. I have been very good to his family; I even connected my generator to his house to give them light. “Whenever my daughter is given food, she will take it to eat with him. Once we bath her, she will take her clothe to him to wear for her. She usually slept in their house, so I did not want to believe that he was behind her disappearance. “But three women later came to our house, among the three was a woman he bought bottled water from while he was with my daughter. So, the woman now said he saw him with my daughter and that after drinking from the water, he gave my daughter to drink and they left. “I still did not believe what they were saying. I told them to stop lying against him until my wife got angry and went and reported to the police that I was also a suspect. That was how I was arrested with him on December 25 and we slept at the station. “He was still denying it, until the women and all those who saw him with my daughter came to the police station and identified him. “They even described the clothe he was wearing, which happened to be the same clothe he wore while he was following me about. That was how the police detained him. “After some days, he confessed that he was the one who took her and that he sold her for N20,000 through somebody else to a man who lives in Okota. “He said he cannot remember the man and the middle man who took the baby to the buyer usually stayed at a woman’s house here in Coconut. “I have been going from church to church and they keep telling me that my daughter is alive. “Okpara should let me know if he has killed my daughter. If my baby is still alive, he should say where she is. How can a man like that kidnap a little girl and since then he doesn’t want to say where she is? Police need to put pressure on him to say where my baby is. “I have spent all my savings on the investigation of this matter. I have been giving the police money so that the case is not slowed down. Now I don’t even have money to pay for the school fees of my other children,” he said. The woman in whose house the middleman usually slept was arrested but later released because she knew didn’t know anything about the case. It was gathered that the middleman gave the child to a chief, who handed her over to his prophet for sacrifice. All the locations mentioned by Okpara have been visited by the police but the child still hasn’t been found. The Police have launched a manhunt for the buyer and the prophet he allegedly gave the child to. The investigation is supposedly still ongoing.

Obviously , I ’ m not a relationship expert. But there’ s something about my divorce being finalized this week that gives me perspective of things I wish I would have done different… After losing a woman that I loved , and a marriage of almost 16 years , here ’ s the advice I wish I would have had 1 . Never stop courting. Never stop dating . NEVER EVER take that woman for granted . When you asked her to marry you , you promised to be that man that would OWN HER HEART and to fiercely protect it. This is the most important and sacred treasure you will ever be entrusted with . SHE CHOSE YOU. Never forget that , and NEVER GET LAZY in your love . 2 . Protect your own heart . Just as you committed to being the protector of her heart , you must guard your own with the same vigilance . Love yourself fully , love the world openly , but there is a special place in your heart where no one must enter except for your wife . Keep that space always ready to receive her and invite her in , and refuse to let anyone or anything else enter there . 3 . Fall in love over and over again . You will constantly change . You ’ re not the same people you were when you got married, and in five years you will not be the same person you are today . Change will come , and in that you have to re - choose each other everyday . SHE DOESN ’ T HAVE TO STAY WITH YOU, and if you don ’ t take care of her heart , she may give that heart to someone else or seal you out completely , and you may never be able to get it back . Always fight to win her love just as you did when you were courting her . 4 . Always see the best in her . Focus only on what you love . What you focus on will expand . If you focus on what bugs you , all you will see is reasons to be bugged . If you focus on what you love , you can ’ t help but be consumed by love . Focus to the point where you can no longer see anything but love , and you know without a doubt that you are the luckiest man on earth to be have this woman as your wife . 5 . It’ s not your job to change or fix her … your job is to love her as she is with no expectation of her ever changing . And if she changes, love what she becomes , whether it’ s what you wanted or not . 6 . Take full accountability for your own emotions : It’ s not your wife ’ s job to make you happy , and she CAN’ T make you sad . You are responsible for finding your own happiness , and through that your joy will spill over into your relationship and your love . 7 . Never blame your wife if you get frustrated or angry at her , it is only because it is triggering something inside of YOU . They are YOUR emotions , and your responsibility . When you feel those feelings take time to get present and to look within and understand what it is inside of YOU that is asking to be healed . You were attracted to this woman because she was the person best suited to trigger all of your childhood wounds in the most painful way so that you could heal them… when you heal yourself , you will no longer be triggered by her , and you will wonder why you ever were. 8 . Allow your woman to just be . When she ’ s sad or upset, it’ s not your job to fix it, it’ s your job to HOLD HER and let her know it’ s ok . Let her know that you hear her , and that she ’ s important and that you are that pillar on which she can always lean . The feminine spirit is about change and emotion and like a storm her emotions will roll in and out , and as you remain strong and unjudging she will trust you and open her soul to you … DON ’ T RUN- AWAY WHEN SHE ’ S UPSET. |
