The fear of loneliness often makes us want to be with someone. No one wants to be alone, we all want someone we can call our own. Someone to be there for us in times of need, someone to talk to, share great moments together, share our joy and pain, relate our fears and past etc Sometimes we may have a whole family and friends around us and still feel lonely inside, like something about us is not complete. This drives us to want to attach ourselves to someone intimately and build a lasting relationship. It gives us a sense of companionship and being loved.

However, sometimes we find ourselves entangle in the wrong relationship, we get stuck with the wrong person and not knowing what to do. It gets nastier, we are taken for granted, disrespected and cheated on, but we still want to stay and see if we can change things for good. Most of the time we don’t succeed but we stay anyway for fear of being alone.

It is better to stay single and have complete control of your life than to be with someone who does not treat you right, is hardly there for you when you need them and does not care. There is no shame in quiting while you can, working on yourself if you have to and trying again. It is not your fault that they act the way they do and even if it is, they are supposed to be helping you become better not treating you like trash.

If you have found yourself in such relationship, realise that the more you stay, the more you loose your sanity. Pick yourself up, break out of that chain and breath a new air. You deserve better, always!

The Federal Government of Nigeria has threatened to deal with male cross-dresser, Okuneye Idris Olarenwaju, otherwise known as Bobrisky.

Director-General of the National Council for Arts and Culture, Otunba Olusegun Runsewe, made the disclosure in an interview with Vanguard.

His words, “Bobrisky is a national disgrace. He started by selling and using bleaching creams, now, he has grown boobs, bums and hips.

‘If a Bobrisky is doing well with his immoral lifestyle, how do you convince Nigerian youths to do the right thing? Bobrisky has the right, but not within the Nigerian environment.

“There are others like him, but they live outside the country. If we don’t address Bobrisky as early as possible, he will form a team that will spread like wildfire.

“This will result in a lot of suicide cases, because the typical Nigerian parent would not want to see their child become a Bobrisky.



“It’s not an entertainment issue, it’s a war to save Nigeria for a better tomorrow. If you start this kind of war, you are bound to be attacked.

”My job is to preserve and protect the culture of this country. It would be unfair for me to be silent on this. You now find male prostitutes by the roadsides.
” A popular Nigerian recently paid an unexpected visit to his son in England..... readmore.

Exquisite wife of Nigeria’s political big boy, James Onanefe is in severe pains, SecretReporters can authoritatively reveal today. She is not in pain due to marital crisis or financial difficulties but due to the deal of having her child in God’s own country crumbling before her very eyes, despite the political powers and financial war chest of her husband. Senami Sosu who got married to Ibori in a talk of the town wedding in 2017 has safely put to bed, disclosed a source. But this is not the gist.

The University of Lagos graduate we gathered flew to the USA in the 8th month of her pregnancy to have her child but was refused entry into the US on arrival. We gathered that she was turned back with no reason given to her during the Point of entry (POE), a situation she could not save despite various calls placed to the US embassy and diplomatic figures from Nigeria. The fair skin goddess of fashion who mesmerises Ibori’s head was all tears as she booked another flight that took her to London, where she had her baby who will not be a UK citizen, as the laws do not acknowledge citizenship by birth like US, Canada or Brazil. We gathered that efforts were made by the powers that be to get her back to the US before her expected date of delivery but one of our sources revealed that it was futile as the US were making plans to ban her from the US, hence the initial denial at POE. With this turn back, she is the first public casualty of the yet to be established law of the Trump administration, seeking to abolish citizenship by birth in the US.

The  exemplification honour of the knights of St. John from  Grand Master,Nigerian Temple Noble and Exalted Knights of the Holy Cross Knight of St. John International was conferred on the  former ex-Transportation Minister for his services to the Order and humanity for over twenty years at the Pope John Paul II Catholic Centre  in Abuja.

Highest culfra in the Catholic Christian doom......?

Cherrybae:
Barely 12 years after the controversial judgement of the Supreme Court that ousted the then governor of Rivers State, Celestine Omehia and replaced same with Rotimi Chibuike Amaechi, the Supreme Court has admitted the law was wrong and cannot serve as a reference.

The controversial law according to the Supreme Court has been set aside by Section 141 of the electoral act which says that before anybody is declared elected in any election, such person must participate in all the stages of the election.

The apex court came up with this while delivering judgement in the case between Abdulrauf Abdulkadir Modibbo Vs Mustapha and two others over matters arising from the rightful contestant, winner and actual representative of Yola-North-South/Girei Federal Constituency in the Federal House of Representatives.

Recall that due to certain theatricals that characterized the rightful Governorship Candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and Sir Dr. Peter Odili's successor in 2007, no thanks to K-Leg Saga, the Supreme Court naturally became the final arbiter to resolve the dilemma.

But in a shocking judgement by the highest court of the land which many described as unheard of, the world over and miscarriage of justice unprecedented in history, the Supreme Court sent the sitting governor, Celestine Omehia packing on grounds that he never existed in the eyes of the law.

In his place, the Supreme Court ordered that his cousin, Rotimi Chibuike Amaechi, who though won the Rivers State PDP Gov'ship Primary in Dec., 2006 but was disallowed, to take over as the Rivers State governor.

Chibuike Amaechi who was on self exile in Ghana did not contest the 2007 general election in Rivers State and thus, became the first man in the annals of Nigeria's political history to become a governor of a State in a democracy without contesting for the office.

But just recently, the Supreme Court while adjudicating in another matter which the Amaechi Vs Omehia case was cited, admitted that the law that brought the Ubima politician, and immediate Minister of Transportation, Rotimi Chibuike Amaechi into office in 2007 is no longer a good law.

See excerpts below:

This position was reached by the five-man panel of the Supreme in suit No. SC.90/2019 between ABDULRAUF ABDULKADIR MODIBBO Vs MUSTAPHA  AND 2 ORS on the 30thof July, 2019. It held that only a person who has participated in all the stages of an election can be declared a winner.

On 7th October, the Appellant and the 1strespondent contested at the primary election conducted by the All Progressives Congress (APC) seeking nomination as APC candidate to contest at the General Election as member representing Yola/North-South/Girei Federal Constituency of Adamawa State. The 1strespondent as Plaintiff at the trial court did not dispute that he lost the primary election. His grouse, however, was that the information on oath about the Appellant which APC submitted to INEC were forged.

The 1st Appellant took out the summons apparently pursuant to the provisions of section 31(5) & (6) of the Electoral Act, 2010, as amended, that provide:

“(5) Any person who has reasonable grounds to believe that any information given by a candidate in the affidavit or any document submitted by that candidate is false may file a suit at the High Court of a State or Federal High  Court against such person seeking a declaration that the information contained in the affidavit is false.

(6) If the Court determines that any of the information contained in the affidavit or any document submitted by that candidate is false, the Court shall issue an order disqualifying the candidate from contesting the election.”

Section 66(1)(i) of the constitution provides that:

“No person shall be qualified for election to the Senate or the House of Representatives if – he has presented a forged certificate to the Independence National Electoral Commission” (INEC).”

The 1st Respondent paragraph 3 of his Affidavit provided the particulars of the forgery to the effect that the Appellant is a graduate of public administration from Adamawa State University, Mubi and was undergoing compulsory national youth service in Gombe state. That primary elections were conducted on the 7th of October while the Appellant passed out of National Youth Service on the 18th of October, 2018. That date of birth he supplied to the National Youth Service Corps was September 29th, 1989. That he had deposed on oath at various times and places as to his age as 29th day of September, 1985 at Gomber, 29th day of September, 1986 at FCT Abuja, 29th day of September, 1989 at Gombe. Furthermore, the Appellant collected his Primary School Certificate in 2005 wherein his date of birth was 29th day of September 1985; he forged another primary school certificate whereon his date of birth is stated as 29th day of September, 1986 and gave further facts to show some contradictions in the certificate and that Girei 1 Primary did not possibly issue both certificates.

The parties filed and exchanged affidavits that were irreconcilably hostile and contentious factually and were therefore ordered to file and exchange pleadings. The trial court in its final judgment declared among others that the Appellant by dint of the National youth Service Corps Act (Bye Law 2011) No. S. 4 of 2011 was not qualified to have been nominated as the candidate of APC at the general elections since at the material time he was under obligation to serve compulsorily to serve for one year in the NYSC scheme and the 1st Respondent being the 2nd Runner Up during the primary election was ordered to replace the Appellant. Miffed by the decision, the Appellant appealed to the Court of Appeal. The Court of allowed the appeal in part. Both the Appellant and the 1st Respondent aggrieved by the decision appealed to the Supreme Court as Appellant and Cross Appellant respectively.

The three issues before the court were as follows:

“Whether in the entire circumstances of this suit, the court was right in upholding the findings of the trial court to the effect that the 1st Respondent's suit was not statute barred.“Whether the court below was right in upholding the findings of the trial judge to effect that the 1st Respondent had discharged the burden of proof of forgery against the appellant beyond reasonable doubt“Whether the court below was right in upholding the findings of the trial judge to effect that the Appellant be replaced with the 1st Respondent as the candidate of the 2ndRespondent at the house of representative election for North/Yola South/Girei Federal Constituency held on the 23rd February, 2019 when the said 1st Respondent did not participate in all the stages of the election.”

The sole issue in the cross-appeal reads thus:

“Whether regards being had to the provisions of the 1999 constitution, as amended, the court of appeal was right in holding that the 1st cross respondent cannot be disqualified from contesting the house of representative election for North/Yola South/Girei Federal Constituency of Adamawa state except as provided by the provisions of the constitution itself.”

The Appellant argued that the trial court was wrong in holding that the action of the 1stRespondent was not statute barred because the cause of action accrued on 18th October, 2018 when APC submitted the name of the Appellant and his particulars to INEC. The court disagreed with the appellant and referred to section 31(2)&(3) of the electoral act 2011, as amended and held that it is only upon the said publication that the cause of action ripens

“I agree with the 1st respondent and the concurrent judgements of the two court below that the said 25th October 2018, being the date of the statutory publication, was the date the cause of action for the suit under section 31(5) of the electoral act, accrued to the 1strespondent. From the said date to 5th Novermber 2018, when the suit was filed, being only 11 days from the date of the occurrence of the event, or action complained of, the suit file timeously cannot, therefore, be statute barred by virtue of section 285(9) of the constitution, as amended.”

On the second issue for determination, the court agreed with the Appellant that once at crime is in issue in civil proceedings, same shall be proved beyond reasonable doubt. However, the court reproduced the affidavit of the 1st Respondent and affirmed the concurrent findings of the two court below and held that forgery consists of making false document or writing knowing same to be false with the intent to deceive and that it may be used as a genuine document. The Appellant particulars submitted to INEC are corrupted or tainted by the forged primary school leaving certificate are all forged document for the purpose of section 66(1) of the constitution.

Before resolving the third issue, the Supreme Court first resolved the sole issue in the 1stRespondent's cross appeal, that is, the illegality of the Appellant participating in partisan politics during his compulsory youth service year, whether he was qualified to contest for election into the house of representatives in North/Yola South/Girei Federal Constituency? The court agreed with the trial court that the appellant contravened paragraph 9 of section 4 of the NYSC act Bye-Law. It disagreed with the Court of Appeal and held that continuous service for one year is compulsory and default is a crime by dint of section 13 of the NYSC act and such default goes beyond mere Indiscipline of engaging in partisan politics which under the 2011 revised Bye-Law makes the offending NYSC corps member liable to three months without pay. The court disagreed with the Appellant that a candidate cannot be disqualified from contesting a general election to an office under the constitution, under any other law except by the constitution, it therefore resolved the issue in favour of the cross appellant.

Lastly, the court considered the third issue which is basically on the legality or otherwise of declaring the 1st Respondent as the Appellant's replacement haven't participated in all the stages of the election. The appellant referred to the provisions of section 285(13) of the constitution which provides as follows:

“An election tribunal or court shall not declare any person a winner at an election in which such a person has not fully participate in all the stages of the election”

The Appellant argued vehemently that the 1st Respondent, at the time of the trial court order on 3rd May, 2019 did not participate in all the stages of the election. The court agreed with him and added that section 285(13) of the constitution is in pari materia section 141 of the electoral act. That AMECHI Vs INEC is no longer a good law as same has been set aside by the aforementioned section of the Electoral Act. The court held:

“My lords, when section 285(13) of the constitution is read together with section 31(1),(5),(6)&( of the Electoral Act, it becomes very obvious the order, that the Appellant, standing disqualified be replaced by the 1st the Respondent as the candidate of the 2ndrespondent of the already concluded election, was made per incuriam. The order was a nullity the courts below have made the order ultra vires”

Issues one and two of the issues for determination were resolved in favour of the Respondents but the third issue in favour of the Appellant. The cross appeal also succeeded.

“Haven found and held that the 2nd Respondent (APC) had no candidate, in law, at the general election conducted on 23rd February, 2019 to elect the member in the House of Representatives to represent Yola North/Yola South/Girei Federal Constituency of Adamawa State; the 3rd Respondent (INEC) is hereby ordered to declare and return as elected the candidate (other than the APC “candidate”) who polled the majority of lawful votes cast in the said election”

After many years see the nonsense when the useless word when this judiciary come dey tell people......?

Tmania:
Imo State Governor, Emeka Ihedioha, has alleged that former Governor Rochas Okorocha approved and used about N11.2 billion to build ultra-modern police headquarters and hospitals for the military.

Ihedioha, who insisted that those projects were under Federal Government’s purview, made the allegation in a statement titled: How Rochas Okorocha Robbed Imo to Pay Abuja issued by his Special Assistant on Research, Ogu Bundu Nwadike.

He said Imo people were denied of the funds, which could have impacted on them in the most desired areas of need, than channeling such resources to the constitutionally excluded projects for state governments.

When Vice President Yemi Osinbajo visited Imo State on his tour of oil producing states, Okorocha in his welcome address told the audience that Imo State did not benefit anything from the President Muhammadu Buhari-led Federal Government.

Okorocha narrated how in spite of the fact that Imo State is an APC State, it received no special benefit from the Federal Government.

Ironically, he went ahead to use N 11.2b to build a house for the Federal Government as Headquarters of the Nigeria Police. He also gave out a number of General Hospitals to the Nigerian Army, Navy and Air Force.

That is a case of robbing Imo to pay Abuja. How could a governor who couldn’t attract anything from the central government be building structures with lean State resources and giving them out to the Federal Government?” the statement reads.

Meanwhile, Ihedioha at the weekend resolved the lingering land crisis between the Nigeria Air Force (NAF) Regiment 211 and Imo communities.

The host communities are, Obube and Umuowa communities in Owerri North and Ngor Okpala council of the state.

In a statement issued by his Chief Press Secretary, Chibuike Onyeukwu, the governor also sued for a peaceful resolution of all land related crisis in the state.

Ihedioha was accompanied by the Commandant, 211 Regiment Group, Group Captain Phillip Elisha Bindul and top government functionaries, who visited and met with stakeholders from the communities.

He said the purpose of his visit was to ascertain contentious issues and seek cooperation of the communities to allow peace and development to thrive in the area.

Speaking, Bindul lamented how litigations in court had hindered work on the proposed site, saying the NAF was allocated 100 hectares of land for the construction of the 211 Regiment and as a law abiding agency, it would not exceed the boundary allocated to it.

Traditional Ruler of the area, Eze Jude Chidi Nwaogu, commended Governor Ihedioha for his prompt intervention in the dispute and assured of their cooperation and support towards a peaceful resolution.

Anambralstson:
The hospital is situated in an aesthetic, serene and green environment at Amaigwe, Aguleri. It is equipped with modern equipment to attend to health needs of Ndi Anambra and all others who may seek medical attention in it.

This is coming just a week after the launch of the state owned oxygen production plant at the Odumegwu Ojukwu Teaching Hospital, Amaku, Awka. It is yet evidential of Gov Obiano's passion and commitment to bequeath world-class health facilities to Ndi Anambra.

Calling this hospital world class, if he feel headache he go run go UK for treatment .......?
