PoliticsBuhari Crawler! Disabled Man Vows To Crawl From Jigawa To Abuja For Buhari by famobaba(op): 12:07pm On Jun 08, 2015
A physically-challenged Abdulazez Kucha has vowed to crawl from Gumel Local Government Area of Jigawa State to Abuja to beg President Muhammadu Buhari to reduce the price of Premium Motor Spirit, otherwise know as petrol to N40.

Kucha, 32, said his decision to embark on the journey was borne out of the love he has for his fatherland, ExpressNG has learnt.

Lately, an associate of the new president, Tam David West said Buhari may reduce the price of fuel to N40 per litre.

Reacting to the development, Kucha, who said he lost his two legs after a ghastly road mishap along Otukpo-Enugu Road, said he believes the new government would effect the change it promised during its campaign.

“I was supposed to embark on this journey before now but I took ill. Now I am fit and ready to go. I will be going all the way to Abuja to tell the new president to bring the price of fuel to N40.”

PoliticsJonathan Paid Tompolo N1.5bn Monthly Four Years – Ex-chairman, NIMASA by famobaba(op): 2:21pm On Jun 03, 2015
By OKECHUKWU PEACE



Ex-militant leader of the Movement for the Emancipation of Niger Delta (MEND), Mr. Government Ekpemupolo, alias Tompolo, received N1.5 billion monthly for ex-President Goodluck Jonathan to protect the nation’s maritime areas.

Pioneer chairman of the Nigerian Maritime Administration and Safety Agency (NIMASA), Dr Ahmed Tijani Ramalan, made the shocking revelation to Leadership Newspaper.

Making further clarification on how long the payment has been going on, Ramalan said it started “sometime after 2011 when Jonathan won his election and since then the payment has been on.

Ironically, Dr Ramalan lamented that despite such gesture, the country still loses over 400,000 barrels of crude oil daily from the nation’s shores.

He therefore called on President Muhammadu Buhari to cancel the contract given to the ex-militant by the administration of former President Goodluck Jonathan.

He said, “Over 400, 000 barrels of crude oil are being stolen daily from our shores under President Jonathan; yet we had a government that has the Navy, the Army and the Air Force, and the government of Jonathan decides to hand over the security of our maritime waters to Tompolo at a very exorbitant amount of money.

“And these same people that are given the job of our maritime security are the ones that are collaborating with the international shipping companies to steal our oil.”

“And if Buhari does not do so, we will be the first to start attacking him. There is no basis to give that kind of billion naira job to ex-militants,” he declared.

“I was the pioneer chairman of NIMASA, and NIMASA is the one funding the contract given to Tompolo. This is a guy that is collecting about N1.5bn every month and yet our Armed Forces are not well funded. So, we call on the president to discard such contract.”

By FEMI SALAWU



Midnight Crew’ lead singer, Patricia Uwaje-King finally drops her first solo album today, June 3. Entitled He’s Done Me Well, the album is the vocal powerhouse’s latest offering produced by experience hands such as Wole Oni, Willz, El Jamin, Mr Daz, JTreash, Sammy Young and Joe Pee.

The album which took a ten-month preparation has great tracks like All Power, Eze, Winner, Hear My Call, Iyu Kayin Nene, Lift Up your Name and a traditional gospel classic, ‘Hossana’ featuring Odunayo Ojo-Onasanya (Midnight Crew).

Other soul-lifting tracks that make up the fifteen tracks include I Stand, You I Know Ft Doris Dumah, Miracle, Papa, Get Ready and the Mbene, a bonus track from the Midnight Crew, King Of Nations album.

Speaking on the album, Pat Uwaje-King said; “Yes, this is my first solo album and it is now on major gospel music stores and distributors nationwide. I have great expectations from the album due to the virtue that has gone into its production phase – both spiritual and human. ”

Would her latest solo effort strain her relationship with Midnight Crew? She answered, “There is just too much enveloped in each member and it will be an anomaly to just seat on it and not let all these gifts find expressions.”

Pat Uwaje-King added, “I, for instance, have been involved in breeding new talents, coordinating events and as you know, will be releasing my solo album in a few days. Mike Abdul has also released an album under his own label which houses two other artistes who are already breaking major grounds.

“G-Minor has been deeply involved in the coordination of the Zera mass choir and all of us have had to depend on Odunayo Ojo-Onasanya for our projects, as far as quality and wisdom is concerned. We are still very much involved in the group and I am sure you have seen our recent video for the song ‘Mo Dibo’. We are just leveraging on the platform we already have for individual expression.”

Pat Uwaje-King who has been on the album project for about 10 months emphasized on the massive support she has received from every member of the Midnight crew whose......

It equally points to the fact that no matter how long it takes, the law would catch up with all that has a case to answer. The Agency has shown that it can work without discrimination” he stated.

The letter further enjoined the Agency not to succumb to blackmail. “Let me at this juncture, therefore, encourage you not to falter in the face of blackmail. Your distractors will engage in all forms of antics including blackmail to distract you but you must never be deterred.
