A prominent female activist from the Niger Delta, Ankio Briggs, on Sunday condemned the Niger Delta Avengers for attacking oil and gas pipelines and installations in the region, the News Agency of Nigeria reports.
Ms. Briggs, a close ally of ex-President Goodluck Jonathan, said the avengers were from Somalia and not Nigeria.
The avengers have claimed responsibility for recent attacks on oil and power installations in the Niger Delta. The attacks have reduced almost by half Nigeria’s oil production and caused darkness across the country by destroying pipelines that supply gas to power stations.
Ms. Briggs spoke in Enugu at the 17th Annual Convention of the Igbo Youth Movement, IYM, with the theme `Nigeria, still in pursuit of true fiscal federalism’.
She also condemned the recent murder by an irate mob of a woman, Bridget Agbamihe, in Kano for blasphemy as well as herdsmen attacks in Nimbo, Enugu State and other parts of the country.
Also speaking at the event, Alex Ekwueme, Second Republic Vice-President, and a former Minister of Information, Jerry Gana called for true federalism and devolution of powers to the states.
They said that restructuring and resource control by regions was a panacea to end acts of uprising across the country.
The former vice-president, who chaired the event, said that the British colonialists had earlier divided the country to enable each region control and manage its resources without interference.
“The British colonial masters divided the country in such a way that every region will operate within its constitution,” he said.
The guest speaker and former Information Minister, Jerry Gana, said that the key solution to Nigeria’s problem was through true federalism and devolution of powers to states.
“True fiscal federalism is the only form of association that will allow peace and stability in the country and each region should be allowed to manage its resources the way they want it,” Mr. Gana said.
He noted that the formula for allocating revenue made the Federal Government to get richer while the states operated like beggars.
“States should be allowed to manage its resources to enable them govern their people the way they want and allocate some percentage to the Federal Government.
“Government should not be far from the people and the federating unit should be made strong to meet the needs of the people,” he said.
Mr. Gana recommended continuous dialogue and the implementation of the resolutions of national confab by the government as the only means the recent agitation and other national demand could be handled.
A Yoruba leader, Ayo Adebanjo, said that the various acts of political instability in the country were because the constitution under which the country was governed was not good for heterogeneous country like Nigeria.
“To put a stop at the various uprising in the country such as Niger Delta Avengers, MASSOB, IPOB etc, our constitution needs to be changed to allow for restructuring of the country under true federalism.
Earlier, the founder of IYM, Elliot Uko, said that the event was to honour prominent Nigerians who had contributed to the growth and development of the country.
He said Igbo youth were committed to building a stronger Nigeria and to reduce the tension in the region, adding that true federalism would help the country to grow and prosper.
The highlight of the event was presentation of awards to Messrs. Gana, Adebayo, detained Biafra secessionist leader, Nnamdi Kanu, and Ms. Briggs.
The event was also attended by former governors of Anambra, Chukwuemeka Ezeife and Peter Obi, and students from tertiary institutions in the South-East.

TROOPS REPEL ATTACK ON THEIR LOCATION


Troops of 121 Task Force Battalion, 26 Task Force Brigade, yesterday Sunday 12th June 2016, successfully repelled an attack on their location by suspected Boko Haram terrorists at Pulka.

The terrorists who came through Banki axis of Sambisa forest, attempted to inflict damage on our troops. But the vigilant soldiers rose to the occasion and dealt decisively with the terrorists by killing 6 of them.

They also recovered 1 Fabrique Nationale (FN) rifle with registration number 167229, two belts of 148 rounds of 7.62mm (NATO) ammunition and 1 FN rifle magazine loaded with 7.62mm ammunition (Special). The troops also blew up 3 Vehicles laden with Improvised Explosives Device (VBIEDs).

Unfortunately, 5 soldiers sustained various degrees of injuries during the attack. They have been moved to the unit’s Medical Reception Station for treatment.

St Augustine says, "God gives where he finds empty hands." Empty hands here could stand for self-emptying and humility. Self-emptying is a rare virtue in a world where we are so full of ourselves; in a world where we stubbornly refuse to let go of what we have in our hands in order to let God re-fill us with new gifts of grace. We live in a world where everyone seems to be enjoying riding on a high horse of self-righteousness and we seem to be in a constant state of denial of our sinfulness. An unknown writer paints this situation succinctly, saying, we have become “Very good lawyers for our own mistakes, but very good judges for the mistakes of others."
We can draw some inspiration in the story of David and an unnamed sinful woman who acknowledged their sinfulness and sought the forgiveness of God. David had sinned by taking away Bathsheba, the wife of Uriah and committed adultery. In order to cover his sins, he killed the husband. David disrupted moral and social order by breaking God’s commandment against adultery and by orchestrating the death of Uriah, her husband. The prophet Nathan came to David and fearlessly confronted him about his wrongdoing. He asked the king, “Why have you despised the Lord and done what is evil in his sight? You have cut down Uriah the Hittite with the sword; his wife you took as your own, and him you killed with the sword of the Ammonites” (2 Samuel 12:9).
Obviously, David was no longer at peace with himself, with God and his fellow human beings as a result of his sins. There is a metaphor, which describes sin as a wound inflicted by a poisoned arrow. Instead of removing the poison we make every effort to conceal it and the more we hide it, the more dangerous it becomes. David expressed how he felt when he hid his sins. He said, “Because I kept silent, my bones wasted away; I groaned all day long…my strength withered as in summer. Then I declared my sin to you; my sin I did not hide. I said, ‘I confess my transgression to the Lord’ and you took away the guilt of my sin” (Psalm 32:3-5).
David did not waste time in justifying his wrongdoing, but humbly admitted his guilt by saying, “I have sinned against the Lord” (2 Samuel 12:13). After David admitted and confessed his sins, Nathan said to him, “For his part, the Lord has removed your sin. You shall not die” (2 Samuel 12:13). The story of David shows the sinful condition of the human person who needs repentance to receive the mercy of God.
Jesus came into the world to free people from slavery to sin. Sinners were attracted to him because they saw his compassionate attitude towards them. When Jesus went to dine in the house of a Pharisee, a woman of the city, who was a sinner approached him. “She brought an alabaster flask of ointment, and standing behind him at his feet weeping, she began to wet his feet with her tears and wiped them with the hair of her head, and kissed his feet and anointed them with the ointment” (Luke 7:38). She was like the Prodigal Son who returned to his father saying, “Father, I have sinned against heaven and against you. However, she made her confession in a non-verbal language by her tears and by expressing an extravagant love.
Jesus did not hesitate to absolve the woman from her sins. He said to Simon who was his host and to the other Pharisees on table:
“Do you see this woman? When I entered your house, you did not give me water for my feet, but she has bathed them with her tears and wiped them with her hair. You did not give me a kiss, but she has not ceased kissing my feet since the time I entered. You did not anoint my head with oil but she anointed my feet with ointment. So I tell you, her many sins have been forgiven; hence, she has shown great love” (Luke 7:44-47).
There is a close connection between forgiveness and peace. The woman came to Jesus with her burden of sin and was worried by the weight of guilt. When Jesus forgave her, he took away her sins and restored peace in her heart. He said to her: “Your faith has saved you. Go in peace” (Luke 7:49). At confession, the Priest uses similar words in absolving the penitent, He prays, “…Through the ministry of the Church, may God grant you PARDON and PEACE.”
God invites us to seek for the forgiveness of our sins. Through Prophet Joel he hands this invitation with the following words: “Return to the Lord, your God, for he is gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and abounding in steadfast love” (Joel 2:13). No matter the gravity, the weight and nature of our sin, he promises he would forgive them. In the book of Isaiah he says, “Though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be like snow; though they are red as crimson, they shall be like wool” (Isaiah 1:18). When God forgives us, he grants us another chance to open a new chapter in our lives. In forgiveness, he reassures us of his love.
Jesus shocked the self-righteous Pharisees by paying close attention to the sinful woman. The positive attitude of Jesus toward the sinful woman is an eloquent message that lends credence to the words of St. Paul. According to Paul, “We acknowledge that what makes a person righteous is not obedience to the law but faith in Jesus Christ” (Galatians 2:16). If we approach God with a humble heart and a contrite spirit, we would surely be forgiven.

11th Sunday of the Year; 2 Samuel 12:7-10.13; Galatians 2:16. 19-21; Luke 7:36-8:3.

ABUJA— The Federal Government has concluded arrangements to embark on a mass sack of officers and men of the Nigeria Immigrations Service, NIS, and the Nigeria Prisons Service, NPS. To this end, Vanguard gathered that a new condition of service has been approved by the Minister of Interior, Abdulrahman Dambazau.
A memo from the Civil Defence, Fire, Immigrations and Prisons Services Board, CDFIPB, which was sighted by our correspondent last night in Abuja, reduced the retirement ages of personnel. Dated May 25, 2016, and signed by the Director/Secretary of the Board, A.A Ibrahim, the letter was addressed to all the paramilitary Service Chiefs under the ministry and entitled, 'RE: New Conditions of Service.'
Part of the memo reads: ”I am directed to inform you that at its meeting of December 29, 2015, the Joint Service Board, JSB, took a critical look at the staff conditions of service and resolved that the parameters of retirement of the officers in the services under the supervision of the board should be expanded to include, but not limited to the following: a- attainment of 60 years of age, b- on service for 35 years, c- on disciplinary grounds, d- on medical/health grounds, e-when an officer is un-deployable due to restructuring, appointment, seniority, among others."
Other reasons advanced by the memo are: “after failing promotion examinations at three consecutive attempts, when an officer fails board promotion three times, incompetence, indolence or declining productivity, failure at staff course, post staff course and their equivalents.
“On reaching the maximum age like Assistant Superintendent II is now 22- 33, Assistant Superintendent I is now 22-36, Deputy Superintendent is 25-39, Superintendent is pegged at 23-42, Chief Superintendent is now 26-45, Assistant Controller/Comptroller/Commandant is pegged at 30-48, while Deputy Controller/Comptroller/Commandant is 34-51.
“Others are Controller/Comptroller/Commandant is 38-54, for Assistant Controller/Comptroller/Commandant General pegged at 42-56, Deputy Controller/Comptroller/Commandant General is now 46-58 while Controller/comptroller/Commandant General.”

How do the BHT AAG's shoot down those fighter jet, especially the f7

well i might not be correct but I think wen u about to drop off the bomb u slow down, so I think the bht uses dat window to shoot it down

Henry240:
J-31 is 5 GEN.

I know it's 5 gen but can it stand d rafale,typhoon m even d SU 35,had it been the j-20 no prob

Henry240:
18 JF-17s and the J-31 when it finally enters production is a more likely Air Force we should aspire to. Although like i've previously stated, the J-10B would have been a more preferable choice for me.

oga Henry y J 31 I think the Su 35 well do,after all dere are both twin engine.

I enjoyed dat his interview on sunrise it was an eye opener.

Amnesty International on Friday claimed the Nigerian military shot dead unarmed civilians before a march to mark the anniversary of the 1967 Biafran declaration of independence.
Police have said at least 10 people were killed -- five in the town of Onitsha, Anambra state, and five in Asaba, in neighbouring Delta state -- in violence linked to the commemoration on May 30.
The Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) movement, which has revived calls for an independent homeland for the Igbo people in southeast Nigeria, claimed at least 35 were killed.
Amnesty said it was unclear exactly how many people lost their lives, as soldiers -- who the army says acted in self-defence -- took away the dead and injured.
But it stated that based on visits to hospitals and mortuaries at least 17 were killed and nearly 50 injured in Onitsha alone.
"The real number is likely to be higher," it added in a statement, saying some of the dead and injured seen by researchers had been shot in the back, indicating they were fleeing at the time.
"Opening fire on peaceful IPOB supporters and bystanders, who clearly posed no threat to anyone is an outrageous use of unnecessary and excessive force and resulted in multiple deaths and injuries," said Amnesty's Nigeria director, MK Ibrahim.
One person was shot dead as they slept, he added.
- Tear gas, live bullets -
IPOB has staged regular demonstrations across the southeast since the arrest in October last year of its leader, Nnamdi Kanu, who has been charged with "treasonable felony" and is awaiting trial.
Kanu, who is also head of the banned Radio Biafra, is accused of calling for a separate republic of Biafra, nearly 50 years after a previous declaration of independence sparked a civil war.
The fighting between 1967 and 1970 left more than one million people dead, most of them from starvation and disease, as the Igbo nation was blockaded into submission.
The May 30 protests were to commemorate the 49th anniversary of the independence declaration.
Amnesty, which said it had spoken to 32 eye-witnesses in Onitsha, said it had seen "no evidence" the killings by the police and military were to protect lives.
The police have said officers opened fire because IPOB members shot at the security forces deployed to monitor the protests and that two police were killed in Asaba.
"Amnesty International cannot confirm this claim. However, such killings would not substantiate the army's argument they acted in self-defence," it added.
There was also no evidence to support the claim that IPOB opened fire first.
IPOB maintained the protesters were unarmed and one man interviewed said he threw stones but the military and police fired back teargas then used live ammunition.
Another said soldiers stormed a church where protesters were sleeping the night before the march and let off teargas, while another said he saw a young boy shot dead as he had his hands up.
- 'Worrying pattern' -
The Amnesty report echoes multiple claims about the tactics of armed police and soldiers made by protesters who attended three previous IPOB demonstrations from November to February.
Group members told AFP last month that injured and dead protestors were carted away and dumped in mass graves while others disappeared.
Similar claims have been made against the military in operations against a Shiite Muslim group in December last year, when at least 350 protesters were said to have been shot dead and buried.
The military has also faced repeated charges from human rights groups about abuses against civilians during Boko Haram's Islamist insurgency in the northeast.
On Biafra, President Muhammadu Buhari has said he "will not tolerate" threats to Nigeria's unity.
Ibrahim added: "This is not the first time that IPOB supporters have died at the hands of the military.
"It is becoming a worrying pattern and this incident and others must be immediately investigated," he said, calling for an end to "the pattern of increased militarisation of crowd control".

A 74-year old Igbo market woman, Mrs Bridget Agbahime, was on Thursday beheaded at Kofar Wambai Market, Kano, by an irate mob, who accused her of blaspheming Prophet Mohammed.
The incident occurred at about 4.30pm when traders were about to close for the day’s business.
While condemning such an act, the Northern Christian Association of Nigeria described it as barbaric and wondered why such gruesome and barbaric incident always featured in Kano, a foremost commercial city in the country.
However, Kano, is not the only city or state in the country where people have been killed in the name of religion.
Here are ten gruesome religious killings witnessed in the country since January 2000:
2000 Kaduna riots (21 February-23 May 2000)
The riot followed a proposal to adopt the Sharia law in the state. The proposal led to a violent clash between Christians and Muslims in Kaduna State. It is unclear how many people were killed. It is estimated that between 1,000 to 5,000 people died.
2001 Jos riots (7–17 September 2001)
These riots involved Christians and Muslims who clashed violently in Jos, over the appointment of a Muslim politician, Alhaji Muktar Mohammed, as local coordinator of the federal poverty alleviation program. The clashes started on September 7 and lasted nearly two weeks, ending on 17 September.
More than 1,000 people were killed during the riots.
Miss World riots in Kaduna (November 22, 2002)
The Miss World riots were a series of religiously-motivated riots in Kaduna in November 2002, claiming the lives of more than 200 people.
The controversial Miss World beauty pageant, which was meant to be held in Kaduna, was relocated to London after bloody clashes between Muslims and Christians, caused by what some Muslims deemed to be a “blasphemous” article in a Christian newspaper about the event.
The Miss World riots were part of the Sharia Conflict, that started in 1999 when several predominantly Islamic states in Northern Nigeria decided to introduce Sharia law.
Yelwa massacre, Yelwa, Shedam and Kano ( February 2, 2004)
The so-called Yelwa massacre was actually a series of related incidents of mass violence between Muslims and Christians which took place in Yelwa, Kano State between February and May 2004, killing over 700 people.
The first incident in the series occurred on February 4, 2004 when armed Muslims attacked the Christians of Yelwa, killing more than 78 of them including at least 48 who were worshiping inside a church compound. According to some sources, the signal for the attack was a call for Jihad from the local mosque.
On May 2, 2004 local Christians responded to the February incident by attacking Muslims in Yelwa, resulting in roughly 630 deaths. According to some sources, Muslim girls were forced to eat pork and other foods forbidden to Muslims and some were even raped.
Muhammad cartoons controversy in Maiduguri (February 18,2006)
The killings began after the Danish newspaper Jyllands-Posten published 12 editorial cartoons on September 30, 2005, most of which depicted Muhammad. The newspaper announced that this was an attempt to contribute to the debate about criticism of Islam and self-censorship.
Muslim groups in Denmark complained, and the issue eventually led to protests around the world, including violent demonstrations and riots in some Muslim countries.
The international crisis reached the Nigerian city of Maiduguri, in which over 50 people were killed and many buildings destroyed or damaged by rioting Muslims.
2008 Jos riots (November 28-29)
The 2008 Jos riots involved Christians and Muslims over the result of a local election on November 29 and 29, 2008 in Jos. Two days of rioting left hundreds injured and at least 761 dead. The Nigerian army was deployed and by November 30 order was restored.
2009 Boko Haram uprising
The 2009 Boko Haram uprising was a conflict between Boko Haram, a militant Islamist group and Nigerian security forces. Violence across several states in northeastern Nigeria left over 1,000 dead, with around 700 killed in the city of Maiduguri alone, according to one military official.
A government inquiry later found that, while long-standing tensions existed between Boko Haram and the Nigerian Security forces, the immediate cause of the violence stemmed from an incident in which a group of the sect’s members were stopped by police in the city of Maiduguri as they were on the way to the cemetery to bury a comrade.
The officers, part of a special operation aimed at stamping out violence and rampant crime in Borno State, demanded that the young men comply with a law requiring motorcycle passengers to wear helmets. They refused and, in the confrontation that followed, several people were shot and wounded by police.
According to initial media reports the violence began on July 26 when Boko Haram launched an attack on a police station in Bauchi state, with clashes between militants and the Nigeria Police Force spreading to Kano, Yobe and Borno soon after.

2010 Jos riots
The 2010 Jos riots were clashes between Muslim and Christian ethnic groups near the city of Jos. Since 2001, the area has been plagued by violence motivated by multiple factors.The clashes have been characterised as “religious violence” by many news sources, although others cite ethnic and economic differences as the root of the violence.
The first spate of violence of 2010 started on 17 January in Jos and spread to surrounding communities. Houses, churches, mosques and vehicles were set ablaze, during at least four days of fighting. At least 326 people, and possibly more than a thousand, were killed.
Hundreds of people died in fresh clashes in March 2010. According to The New York Times , the slaughtered villagers were mostly Christians, slain by machete attacks from groups of Hausa-Fulani Muslim herdsmen.Hundreds more fled the area in case the perpetrators returned.
December 2011 Nigeria attacks
A series of attacks occurred on Christmas Day church services in northern Nigeria on 25 December 2011. There were bomb blasts and shootings at churches in Madalla, Jos, Gadaka, and Damaturu. A total of 41 people were reported dead.
The Muslim sect, Boko Haram claimed responsibility.
Yobe Federal Government College attack (February 25, 2014)
On February 25, 2014, fifty-nine boys were killed at the Federal Government College of Buni Yadi in Yobe State. The twenty-four buildings of the school were also burned down as a result of the attack. No group has claimed responsibility for the attack, but according to media and local officials, the Islamist militants, Boko Haram, are suspected to be behind the attack.

Adesiji77:
BY Victor Ahiuma-Young, reporting from Geneva, Switzerland GENEVA – ORGANISED Labour, Thursday, vowed to cripple operations in the banking sector over ongoing mass retrenchment of workers, throwing its weight behind the threat by the Federal Government through the Minister of Labour and Employment, Senator Chris Ngige, to withdraw the licenses of banks that breached its directive to halt further retrenchment. This came as Labour issued a 21 day ultimatum to the affected banks to recall the sacked workers or risked unprecedented industrial action.

At a joint briefing in Geneva, leaders of Nigeria Labour Congress, NLC, and the Trade Union Congress of Nigeria, TUC, insisted that they would picket banks that indulge in further mass sack of their employees, saying that the Federal Government was right to have threatened erring banks with withdrawal of their licenses if they refused to halt the gale of mass retrenchment of workers.

Speaking at a a briefing at the venue of the on-going 105th International Labour Conference, ILC, in Geneva, Switzerland, both Labour centres contended that just like the banks disobeyed the laws of the country and retrenched workers “we will picket them to show them that they do not have monopoly of law of disobedience.”

Both Ayuba Wabba and the TUC President, Bobboi Kaigama, who frowned at the refusal of the banks to allow their workers to unionized, said the pronouncement of the Minister of Labour and Employment, Senator Chris Ngige was expected, arguing that it was not the responsibility of the Senate Committee on Banking to invite the Minister and others for a meeting since the issue fell within industrial relations.

What does this man actually want? What is all this noise about him? What is he in pursuit of? What does Patrick lfeanyi Uba of Capital Oil & Gas really want?
Now, often and on, all around his home state of Anambra, through to National level and even unto the African continent. Here and there, Ifeanyi Ubah as a name rings a bell. I dare ask, what does this Ifeanyi Ubah of a man actually want?
In deciding for a caption of this work, I was left in a middle of a crossroad as to what would suit my thought or my line of expression or what I intend to share about. I thought and thought again before arriving at this choice. In running through, you would also read what I would have captioned this work if not this.
In the last decade to this day, the name Ifeanyi Ubah had continued to glow all around the societal, religious, enterprenual abd political discuss. We have become so accustomed to the name that many now misplace who the man is to another. The name runs across all ages, young and old alike, even common market women or traders and as well, young children know of the name and many can proudly identify the man wherever they see him.
Who is Patrick Ifeanyi Ubah?
Well, I for one, in all sincerity may not be in the very best position to discuss in clear terms who the man is, but I would try my one at best in sharing what or who I think of the man.
Patrick Ifeanyi Ubah is this young energetic, enterprising, charismatic, smart, and forward-looking Nigerian. He is an indeed a distinct Nigerian in more fronts than one. Ifeanyi Ubah was one man who wasn't born with a silver spoon, yet not totally spoonless yet he went all out and away from his comfort zone, strived so hard, pushing beyond his limit to becoming a resounding success to himself, his family and today, to the society at large.
Ifeanyi's parents were school teachers who worked assiduously to better the society by tutoring very many.
As a young man, he thought towards entrepreneurship, later went ahead and fully into it. He began with tyre business running same across the West African region to expanding his frontiers and stepping into other import and export merchandise from where he grew a conglomerate which has since metamorphosed into a renowed and leading oil and gas firm. What we today know as Capital Oil and Gas was actually not a myth, it was born out of the lead three 'D' channel to success: Drive, Determination and Discipline foregoing in totality the fourth D which is Distractions. God's grace crowned it all.
Ifeanyi Ubah has since continued to manage his enterprise including at intervals, unavoidable or well unforseen contingencies into growing same outfit to the wonder it had since become. The name Ifeanyi Uba has become a household one both at home and abroad. He is a welcomed and hugely accepted Nigerian in various circles and society.
This is one man who places great zeal of push for education and the educated, he wouldn't allow his slight-deficiency in that to weigh him down or serve as an obstacle or be any form of setback. Instead, in all he ever can, he had continued to push so well and very high achieving wonders which might had t outstounded him.
Ifeanyi Ubah has since joined politics. It is worthy of note to include herein that while he ran his successful business empire abroad, he built a haven for himself and a future to be proud of. His undieing love for Nigeria and Africa as a continent led to his becoming at various intervals, President, Nigerans in Diaspora in various countries of the world where he based or lived at different times, remarkably Ivory Coast. His service to the people then was noted as superlative.
It was most recently that he returned home and thought of the popular saying that charity begins at home. He used a "think home philosophy", returned to Anambra State where he contested for the Governorship position in year 2014. Then, he pushed so hard and so well, yet, to God's will and by the votes of the people, he wasn't voted.
A Latin adage reads: "Vox populi, Vox Dei" which clearly means "The voice of the people is the voice of God".
In truth, great men do not always win at first try. Infact, it is a lead for them to restrategise or plan better and try again. Also, it does not actually matter on how much we fail. The most important aspect remains how quickly we pick up ourselves, get off the ground, dust off and continually forge ahead. He, just like many other successful persons understood this. He moved ahead.
Also, in life, many had failed not necessarily because they have not made effort. On a daily basis, people make concerted effort. People actually fail because they refuse to learn from their mistakes or refuse to pick themselves up and together, and continue matching. Ifeanyi lost, but in his habit, he insisted that it was not and cannot be the end of the world and since ndi-Anambra have spoken, that settles it.
After the elections and all that followed, he quitely returned back to his business and continually worked limitlessly into bettering it all the more.
Ifeanyi Ubah is one Nigerian who near-miraculous
ly draws crowd like none other. He has what it takes to draw a huge followership particularly amongst young people. Ofcourse, this is because he had in quietude, impacted positively in their lives directly or indirectly. His 'Ifeanyi Ubah Foundation' is an instant example. This non-Governmental and non-profit organization has added value in the lives of many Nigerians and by extension Africans. They have granted scholarship to a large percentage of individuals, built homes for many homeless, provided succour to the less privileged, aided the Government at various levels in provision of the basic amenities for the people including: roads, water and other necessities of life. Those had all been done by Ifeanyi Ubah and his charity organization and still doing more.
It is on record that during the last Nigeria's General elections, the Transformation Ambassadors of Nigeria otherwise known as TAN was singly, a brain-child of Ifeanyi Ubah which he nutured, grew and sustained. The waves the group made during that election was unprecedented, forst of it's kind and may never, atleast for now be matched.
Win or loose, Ifeanyi is one man who believes that power comes from God through God's people by their vote or the choice they make. TAN strongly rooted for Goodluck Jonathan who lost to Muhammad Buhari of the then opposition. Ifeanyi Ubah went ahead congratulating him, President Buhari and assured of his one and all support always.
At the inception of the new administration, Nigeria was brought to a halt with a demand of higher pay by oil marketers and distributors, this was actually not only insensitive but also callous and very wicked that a people accepted to hold a nation down and stagnated by not supplying such basic becessity such as petrol. He came out openly to declare that he was not goung to be a part to, for in hope of higher gains, hold the most populous black nation on earth to a standstill. This was the hallmark of true patriotism exhibited by this man. Nigerians roundly celebratrd him and at that point, referred to him as a messiah.
Time and on into the administration, at intervals, there had been times of petrol scarcity, again, he usually succumbed to the cry of mostly ordinary Nigerians, allowing pipe to run open from his tank farm and supplying the nation.
In this administration, he had also, when the naira crashed to all-time lowest, Ifeanyi came alive on National television to give possible soltutions to the drought of the Nigerian currency in the international or world market. He went ahead betting his whole asset that if he be given a chance and the naira doesn't pick up within a given time, he is ready to give up his one and all which actually ran into billions of naira, some estimated about half a trillion. These are records and they are verifiable facts.
As an oil magnet, a successful enterprenuer and a polished politician, Ifeanyi is one philanthropist who his love for giving knows no bounds. He has truly distinguished himself in somany fronts. In the religious circle, he had been a known donor to many churches and denominations, lately, he is doing a Catholic Cathedral for Nnewi Diocese . Also, in his community, taring of road and street lighting has become age long.
In scholarly institutions, Ubah's impact has been greatly felt, from the prestigious University of Nigeria, Nsukka down to the Federal University of Technology, Owerri. He is a steady donor and great builder. This accounts for why he had been invited and rightfully presented with a Honorary Doctoral Degree by many institutions at home and abroad in appreciation of his usual goodwill.
In the society, the traditional circle particularly, right from his home town of Nnewi, he is the youngest member of the traditional council of his community and has since been bestowed with the chieftaincy title as "Ebube Chukwu uzo" which means "Standing God first in all things".
Infact, it is safe to conclude that his name, Ifeanyichukwu and his title name, "Ebubechukwu also accounts for the reason why even in his unseemingly difficulties, he is progressive and radiates as a shinning light. He is deserved to be known as Ebube-Anambra.
His think Home Philosophy
This is what distincts Ifeanyi Ubah fron many other geeat and successful Igbo sons and daughters. Ifeanyi Ubah's think home mindset or philosophy is one habit lacking amongst many Igbos and infact Nigerians particulalry amongst the political class who take away from the system and send same to other safe havens abroad. He is now and again, setting the pace and standard, lifting the torch and leading the way that others may follow. The "Ifeanyi Ubah Games Village" which we learnt would house a worldclass sports facility, business park, hotel and many more is a next wonder of Igboland. Infact, the zeal and push that is following work at the sight truly showcases that indeed, men are not smiling and work is going on fine.
Why would Ifeanyi decide to make such investment back home in Anambra State?
Yes, businesses are opened up to maximise profit. Aside that, it plays to impact on his people. Today, there is Anambra Warriors, the Ifeanyi Ubah Football Club and this world class games village and African wonder is quickly springing up. When completed, it is expected to provide over 5000 direct and indirect job opportunities. It would open-up another window to the world leading Anambra State and ofcourse the entire Igboland as another choice destination for business and leisure.
Aside owing a high-spirited team, the Nigerian football club, today, he has been voted the Chairman, Anambra Football Association and he is optimistic that it grows and flourishes beyond bounds.
Ifeanyi is no saint and as human, he has his own flaws. He might not be the very best, yet he can't be ranked below average. He is one man who sets his eyes on history. He places God in his thought and dealings. He wishes for the very best. He believes strongly in the inherent abilities and capabilities of Nigerian youth and he had showed this limitless love for the generation next, the young. He is a model to many. A chunk percentage of Nigerians would proudly point at him and say, we are here or have succeeded because even when many others failed us or when we failed to believe in ourselves, he was there to encourage, support and believe in us.
Back home in Anambra, the current administration had only completed a two years of her usual four years life span for first tenure and there is this shake, this raised-tempers and cold-shivers down the spine of many politicians that Ifeanyi Ubah might declare to run for the Gubernatorial again. And in his usual style, he had called for calmness asking Anambrarians to continually support the serving Government.
Patrick Ifeanyi Ubah has sincerely done well for Nigeria and us all. Some even wonder if he is gradually preparing to contest for Nigeria's next general elections, the Presidency. He insists that elections shouldn't always be the reason why good should be done. We ought to give in season and out of season.
In sum, I would have recaptioned this article, "The Igbo Man's think Home Ideology, the Example of Dr. Patrick Ifeanyi Ubah". I later settled for the current caption to invoved that yes, it is not out of place to wonder what is behind Chief. Ubah's mind and what informs his continual chioce of doing good.
When next we think of what Ifeanyi Ubah wants of us, he would answer, "a better Nigerian society for myself and the next generation".
If we talk about contesting for any political position, Dr. Patrick Ifeanyi Ubah is without bounds, well qualified, in thought, mind, works and dispositions. Politicians may not want his type of person, but the populace may strongly wish for him or persons like him. He has gone beyond thought, he derserves about now to be kmown and addressed as Ebube-Nigeria!
What does Ifeanyi Ubah actually want? He simply wants the very best for all Nigerians.

Newsflashngr can report that the executive Governor of Anambra State, Chief Wille Obiano has pledged to offset the hospital bills of some Biafra agitators injured during the celebration to mark the 49th anniversary of declaration of Biafra Nation and called for calm over the crisis rocking Nkpor community just as a chieftain of All Progressive Congress APC, Chief Zeribe Ezeanuna, demands apology from the Governor over the alleged massacre of the agitators at Nkpor recently.

He made the pledge at Nkpor town hall when he came to sympathize with the people of Nkpor on the alleged bloody clash between the security operatives and the Biafra agitators in which about 50 members were reportedly massacred and scores injured.

According to the Governor “we have compiled the list of the injured in the different hospitals where they are hospitalized”.

He urged the Nkpor people to always ward off undesirable elements who come into the community to tarnish their image.

He said, “I came to sympathize to you for what happened. “Before I came in as the Governor people did not sleep but now we sleep, don’t allow strangers to disturb Nkpor, nothing happens under my watch” he said.

He recalled that he used diplomacy to evacuate Boko Haram suspects brought into Ekwulobia Prisons and also gave befitting burial to Biafra war heroes.

I saw a vision that at a time in the future, CHURCHES will be offered for sales to individuals and the governments to turn them into hospitals and research centres.

Then almost in every street, hospitals will be available and there will not be need to use helicopters as ambulances again, except in critical cases.

Churches will so much reduce while hospitals will so much increase for easy access to cure to problems of humanity. Also, research centre will be within our reach and at very tender ages of six, children would be acquainted with medicine in their streets. Then Nigeria will become better because HEADACHE CAUSING NIGHT VIGILS would have been banned and BRAIN-IMPROVING THINGS would have been learnt.

A law would have been made that noisy activities shoul not hold anymore.

THAT IS THE VISION I SAW LAST NIGHT.

go get treatment for malaria.
