The Honorable Minister of Women Affairs, Barr Uju Kennedy Ohanenye has advocated for all hands to be on deck towards breaking those barriers that have impeded our quest for socio-economic advancement as a nation, over the years.

The Women Affairs Minister made this appeal during her presentation as a guest speaker at the 2023 annual summit of the Nigerian Bar Association Young Lawyers Forum in Port Harcourt with the theme “ Breaking the Barriers”, organized to address and raise public consciousness on the need for collective efforts by all Nigerians to work towards removing those social vices, abnormal practices and policies which have negatively affected our collective drive towards nation building.
According to Uju who is also a Lawyer, “I was personally attracted to be at this summit when I noticed that it is been organized by young lawyers. We need the younger generation to change the narratives on the way we run our country. I wish to invite the young lawyers to partner with my Ministry, the Women Affairs” she said.
Speaking further, she said “ we need to break the barrier if we must move forward as a country, there is one thin line of barrier which we need to break and that is the barrier of non-inclusivity of women in politics but how do we include the women in decision making when on 10 percent of women presently own properties in the country, that is to say that only 10 percent of women are eligible to join politics for now” she added.
Barr Uju also said that women are naturally endowed with potentials to serve as key players in nation building but this can only be possible when they are empowered and given the voice as major stakeholders in national development.
On rule of law, the Minister also frowned at the nation’s judicial process which is bereft of proper application of the rule of law “ part of the ways we address the issue of poverty in Nigeria is when the issues of man’s inhumanity to man and selfishness are removed in the scheme of things. The rule of law should apply to everybody without sentiments. During my recent visit to a Correctional Centre, I saw women who were serving jail terms for just N20,000.00 fine and had to pay N395,000.00 for the release of about 35 inmates including men. Just because some people have connection, their crimes are swept under the carpet and that is unfair and injustice. Nigeria will be better is the rule of law is applied accordingly” she also said.
Other keynote speakers and dignitaries at the event were the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Chief Nyesom Wike, Hon. Justice Mary Odili, Chairman Body of Benchers, Sir Victor Benibor, Chairman Nigerian Bar Association,  Port Harcourt Branch, Dr Nonso Enebeli, Chairman Young Lawyers Forum, Port Harcourt Branch, Hon Justice Okogbule Gbassam, Hon Justice Omonigho Nwibani, Rivers Sector Commander of the FRSC, Corps Commander Christopher Kuje among others.

onojaintegrity:
The Honourable Minister for Women Affairs, Barr. Uju Kennedy Ohanenye, has reaffirmed her commitment to safeguarding and advancing the rights and welfare of Nigerian women, including the pursuit of justice when these rights are violated.

The Honourable Minister wishes to emphasize her unwavering dedication to upholding due diligence and the rule of law, recognizing that justice and fairness are the fundamental principles upon which equitable societies are built.

This declaration comes in response to recent public discussions and reactions by concerned Nigerians regarding the unfolding situation at the University of Calabar, involving the Dean of the Faculty of Law, Prof Cyril Ndifon, and sexual harassment allegations levelled against him.

In her own words, Barr. Uju stated: "I wish to express my sincere apologies to those who were offended by my comments and actions regarding the sexual harassment scandal at the University of Calabar. This is extremely regrettable as my intentions were sincere and aligned with my consistent advocacy for the welfare of Nigerian women and the pursuit of justice. I stand for all Nigerian women and I stand for justice; and it is my hope that we can work together to actualize the dream of a country where women’s rights are respected and protected, and where our daughters feel safe in institutions of learning.”

It is worth recalling that during a recent appearance on AIT, the Honourable Minister was unequivocal in her condemnation of sexual harassment and related offences. She also expressed deep concern over the escalating cases of sexual harassment across campuses and emphasized the need for decisive action, assuring that her Ministry would actively seek justice for those affected.

The lawmaker representing Yagba Federal Constituency in the House of Representatives, Elder Leke Abejide, who is seen as the 'Asiwaju' of Yagba land, has commended the appointment of the Plateau State Governor, Rt. Hon Simon Lalong, and Member Representing Ikeja Federal Constituency, Chief James Faleke, as Director-general and secretary, respectively, of the All Progressives Congress (APC) 2023 Presidential Campaign Council.

This was announced by the convener/ National Cordinator of the Asiwaju Confluence Campaign Organization in a Congratulatory message released on Tuesday in Abuja.

In his statement, Elder Leke stated that Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu's selection of Lalong and Faleke, was a wise move that will ensure the APC president candidate's victory at the Presidential Election next year.

The legislator and Kogi Political leader pointed out that Lalong and Faleke are seasoned politicians who are familiar with the workings of Nigeria politics as a result of their years of experience and track records of leadership, adding that the people of Kogi State are very proud of the duo heading the campaign for Tinubu.

He further stated that his coleague, Hon Faleke, who is now the secretary of the PCC is a very humane leader with very exceptional qualities as demonstrated on the floor of the green Chamber and back home with his Constituents and Nigerians.

The appointments were made public on Thursday by Senator Abdullahi Adamu, the National chairman of the APC, after a meeting with President Muhammadu Buhari at the Villa in Abuja.

Adamu claims that the selections were made based on their ability to perform as observed in previous leadership positions.


Hon. Leke Abejide who is a member of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) seeking re-election for a second term to represent Yagba Federal Constituency, stated that Asiwaju Bola Tinubu is his mentor, and he remains one of the staunch supporters and admirers of the presidential candidate despite their differences in Political party, and the more reason him ( Leke Abejide) is flooting one of the biggest grassroots Campaign Organizations for Tinubu across the country tagged Asiwaju Confluence Campaign Organisation (ACCO23).

Leke affirmed his confidence that Asiwaju Tinubu will win the elections and Nigerians will never regret the Tinubu presidency.

Honourable Leke Abejide, Member of the House of Representatives representing Yagba Federal Constituency, has expressed condolences to the family of Prof Seidu Onailo Mohammed, former Director-General/Chief Executive, National Space Research and Development Agency, whose death was announced on Monday, August 8, 2022.

The House Member stated in a condolence message that the pains of Professor Seidu's death are felt not only in Kogi but throughout the country and even beyond its borders.

He referred to the former NASRDA CEO as a humanitarian icon and fatherly leader, noting that the testimonies of his charity and the number of lives he has impacted are overwhelming.

Leke, the Chairman of the House Committee on Customs, urged the late distinguished Space Scientist's family, management and staff of the National Space Research and Development Agency, friends and associates to take solace in the fact that the academic don had lived a life worthy of emulation, as his impact on humanity is visible to the blind and audible to the deaf.

Leke also stated that the late Professor distinguished himself as a Geo-Science scholar as a Fellow and Board Member of the International Academy of Astronautics (IAA) and a major player in global Space Research and Development whose enormous contributions history will never forget as the DG, NASRDA.

The revered legislator in his message during the 8days Fidau Prayers of the Late Professor Seidu condoled with the people of Abejukolo, his coleague in the Green Chamber - Honourable Abdullahi Ibrahim Halims, the Senator representing Kogi East Senator Jibrin Isah Echocho, the entire Igala Kingdom, the Government and good people of Kogi State and prayed to God to grant the deceased's soul eternal rest.

It takes many people aback whenever it is said that the All Progressive Congress (APC), which is the party in power and the one known to have total control of Kogi State, is not in charge of a Federal Constituency in the state. And two questions usually follow: which party is deposing the APC in Kogi and who is behind the thriving of the "unpopular" party?

In our quest to find answers to the questions and to confidently predict the future of the confluence state, which has emerged as one of the top ten states in terms of the voting population in Nigeria, we came across a man known as Elder Leke Abejide, a member of the House of Representatives who represents the good people of Yagba Federal Constituency in Kogi State's west region, the area controlled by the African Democratic Congress (ADC) with an unusual rapid growth.

However, it would be impossible to tell the story of the dynamic politician in a meaningful way without hearing not only from the horses' mouth, but also from individuals who were personally associated with him and his charitable recipients throughout the state. Without equivocation, it is reasonable to say that the future of Kogi State looks very bright with a towing name everyone is rushing to align with, especially in light of our encounter with the lawmaker's main opponent in the 2019 election, Chief Henry Abimbola; a non-indigenous resident in the constituency; Amulu Terver Joseph; an ELDER Statement of the constituency Chief Richard Asaje; and a political heavy weight from Yagba land who recently left his party to join the House Member.
Without sugarcoating, it is fair to say that Kogi’s future is bright with Elder Leke whose name has become an impeccable brand that everyone is scrambling to support, especially given the pitiable state in which the state currently finds itself.

WHO IS LEKE ABEJIDE
Leke Abejide's name is no longer a hidden sound in Nigerian politics. But the name is a majestic one since it has a lot of undiscovered stories hidden underneath it. But in plain English, Leke Abejide is the House Representative member for the deserving citizens of Kogi State's Yagba East/Yagba West/Mopa-muro Federal Constituency. The chairman of the House Committee on Customs was born on August 5, 1975. His Constituency office is located in Isanlu's Room 7 of the Itedo Ijowa Shopping Complex.

Testimonies showed that the business tycoon had been taking care of his people, including the widows, before entering politics. He has never attempted to stop this till date.

Through his career quest, he helped many individuals find jobs, and those he empowered didn't want to let him go when the time for him to serve his Constituency. And as gathered, every ward in the constituency has been affected by the philanthropist gesture of Hon. Leke.

The lawmaker is now a highly sought-after name in Kogi and is now regarded as the state's awaiting rescuer by some Analysts and political heavy weight.

HOW ADC WON A SEAT IN THE GREEN CHAMBER IN KOGI

The APC took control of the Kogi state in 2015 after it struck the state like a tsunami. The Peoples Democratic Party was the lone cheery voice in opposition.

But in the run-up to the 2019 election, a personality emerged, and since he had already wet the ground with his charitable act, it was easier to win over his supporters to an unpopular party. Abejide settled for the ADC after trying out a few political groups since a political platform is necessary to actualize any political ambition.
But rather than the party, it's thought and his personality contributed mainly to his electoral success.

To the surprise of the ruling APC, the ADC, an unpopular party, won the green chamber seat by a landslide, but for the residents of Yagba, there was no turning back even as the opposition went to court.

The court clearly heard what the electorate said when they expressed their opinions through the ballots and petitions contesting Abejide's victory were promptly dismissed.

The businessman who had already been taking care of his people was now their Representative. The Yoruba-speaking population of Kogi State saw it as a turning point since it implied a chance to accomplish more. Years later, Abejide still hasn't let his people down in the delivery of democracy dividends.

THE AFTERMATH OF THE 2019 ELECTION
Years after entering the office as a representative, the Yagba people had nothing to lament. It has been the only region of Kogi State that is not experiencing the state's regress and the Global economic Crisis owing to major Health Pandemic and the Global Economic melt down .

However, the narrative doesn't end there. Recent extraordinary events have changed the course of Kogi State's political history.

It has never happened before in Kogi State's history for an opponent to leave their party and support the other candidate they faced off against in the polls. However, it was made possible by Leke Abejide's generation. Again, this is only possible when an unusual leadership style is displayed.

In a conversation with the decampee, Chief Henry Abimbola, who left the APC to join Abejide in his ADC after losing in the election and the court, he admitted that he had no choice and that it was unpleasant to keep battling "the gold" of his land. He claimed that despite opposition from some APC Chieftains in the state, he did not turn around. He claimed that Abejide's charisma and unusual accomplishments convinced him to join the ADC and leave the APC, despite the fact that it is the state's leading party.

It is hard to list all of Abejide's accomplishments to date because they are undoubtedly unprecedented. According to an elder statesman from the area Chief Asaje no other lawmaker in Kogi State has accomplished half of what the representative of the Yagba people has done.
To name a few, about 100 constituents in that federal constituency are paid between N20,000 and N100,000 per month as Special Advicers and Aides.

These people who assist the lawmaker include both adults and children as well as young people and teenagers. The lawmaker claims that the creation of the portfolios was done in order to give individuals a way to get work and benefit from his unprecedented Leadership style.
Aside from that, those who come with ideas don’t go back without being empowered.

Furthermore, it is unheard of in any region of the state for students attending both public and private schools not to have financial difficulties with the West Africa Examination Council (WAEC) fees as all their burdens have been carried by Abejide. When the scheme's impact on the parents was examined, the results were heartwarming. As a result of Abejide relieving the parents of the burden of high tuition costs, many less privilege children are now graduating from school without a hitch, according to a source at WAEC office, Elder usually pay the main fee and all the administrative charges of the students, releifing the parents completely from any form of payment.

The House Member has maintained fixing of Federal Roads that connect the populace to other regions of the state as a young man who is dedicated to the development of his people.

TESTIMONIES

Testimonies from those who are being led are the only reliable indicators of a leader's effectiveness. And as for Leke Abejide, a renowned and esteemed son of Yagba who spoke about the personality of the law maker said, “Abejide unlike other politicians, has been a philanthropist even before he became a politician and even after been voted into the office, he continued the good works and even did more. For example, he has been paying for the WAEC fee of all students in sss 3 classes even before he became a politician and he is still doing that. Not minding the party, Religious beleive, and tribe their parents belong to.”

Having listened to ample testimonies and thoroughly verify the achievements of Abejide, we can categorically tell Nigerians to go and verify. But the joy of it all is for the fact that the name Abejide has begun to spread across the country.

THE FUTURE OF KOGI WITH ABEJIDE

Despite the fact that Kogi's history as a backward, If the Yagba Federal Constituency is able to live comfortably. If parents don't have to worry about how to pay tuition or hassle their kids about going to school, this might eventually spread to other regions and tribes of the state.

The people of Kogi State must look beyond political parties and move toward recognizing unique individuals who are redefining conventional political practices. A fresh definition of politics and leadership has been provided by Leke Abejide. It is a brand-new system that disregards tribes, Party and age and thinks that everyone should be living better lives rather than a select few who milk the public coffers.

Tomorrow is not far away. Other regions of the Kogi State will experience what is happening in Yagba. Kogi state will eventually become a confluence of opportunities with Abejide.


Hon. Leke Abejide is a rare gem, a round peg in a round hole, a goal getter, an uncommon leader, and the face of hope for the hopeless.

Written by ACCO23’ New Media Team

Former Lagos State Governor Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu's bid to become Nigeria's next president has received a major boost after one of the North Central's most powerful lawmakers, Elder Abejide Leke, declared support for the All Progressives Congress (APC) Candidate and standard flag bearer ahead of the 2023 elections.

The influential lawmaker seeking re-election under the platform of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) for Yagba Federal Constituency Kogi State, is regarded as one of the most prominent figures in Kogi politics after winning his first election with the ADC party in a state where the All Progressive Congress is the dominant force.


Elder Leke, who is also the convener of the Asiwaju Confluence Campaign Organization (ACCO23'), has completed a number of projects in his constituency and other Regions of Kogi West.
Recall, the lawmaker made a humanitarian act that is thought to be the first of its type when he donated aid worth more than N500,000,000 (Five Hundred Million) to more than 2000 constituents in Yagba East, Yagba West, and Mopa Muro Federal district.

He is the only National Assembly Member who has consistently paid WEAC fees for all his Constituents both in Public and Private Schools.

According to reports, in recent time, his enormous accomplishments have persuaded numerous Kogites to defect to the ADC in solidarity for his excellent performance in the green Chamber.

The lawmaker, urge all Nigerians to take advantage of the opportunity to register while praising INEC for making the process of registering and obtaining a PVC seamless.

Maiyegun is a big name

According to an investigation, five northern governors have been promised the office of Vice President, prompting some of the governors to push for the zoning of the All Progressive Congress presidential ticket to the South.

The investigation reveals that five governors are fervently pushing for the ticket to be zoning to a southern candidate in the hopes of being chosen as the running mate from the North.

However, it was discovered that the governors are unaware that the plotters intend to pit them against each other if a southerner wins the ticket.

The five governors are among those pushing for the zoning of the APC ticket to the south, a move that some see as selfish.

The governor of Ekiti State, John Olukayode Fayemi, has asked President Muhammadu Buhari to come out and campaign at the All Progressive Congress national convention billed to take place at Eagle's Square, Abuja on Saturday.

Fayemi who is said to be lobbying for the position of the party's national secretary for an Osun candidate against the decision of the presidency which wants a candidate from Ondo State made this known while responding to questions in an interactive session with the Daily Trust.

According to him, "As for your question on whether the President (Muhammadu Buhari) has anointed anyone, I do not know of that. But the President is well within his rights to have a preferred candidate... if his candidate wins, fine; if his candidate loses, fine."

The governor's response has generated a lot of talks among the party chieftains as it is seen by some as an unfair statement against the president. It is said that the Ekiti State governor is making attempts to challenge the president or counter his decisions.

Some wondered why a state governor could assume so much power to drag the president out and ask him to become a canvasser.
