The law is above any religion . Obey the law Ist. Besides, it's the way Islam is practiced in this country limits them to so many things most especially education. Even countries that Islam originated from have gone far in education and technology than us. Okay now that she wasn't called to bar who lost. Was she the only Muslim ??

Okorocha is his mentor...

Honors sexuality remains madness , stupidity and will never be accepted in Africa. People involved deserve to be killed .

omo nice concept . Stella baby ure welcome . But come what will happen to those whose names are Stella kwanu ??

I support this movement. It's just that we Nigerians are so religious that we no longer use our heads. They say tithe is giving to God. Agreed ! but who is God?? God is not in that building or that fat pastor who already has a home with kids whose schools your own children may never get to attend. God is on the streets , the less privileged , that child who can't further his education because of N6,500 jamb form, God is in the prisons , God is that family that can't feed, God is that cleaner in your office whose kids school fees depends on that megare salary, etc. I have since donated my tithes to these people and belive me my life has changed for good. Whatever u ask God he does it for me. Ask yourself why poverty rate has increased despite the number of religious centres springing up everday.
Abeg we Don wise up. #TitheAgainstPoverty

Kalu not signatory to Govt House Account – Witness
November 30, 2017 • By Akeem Nafiu







A witness of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), John Ejim, yesterday told Justice Mohammed Idris of a Federal High Court in Lagos that a former Governor of Abia State, Dr. Orji Uzor Kalu, was not a signatory to the Government House Account while he presided over the state’s affairs between 1999 and 2007.
Ejim made the disclosure while testifying in the on-going trial of the former governor and two others over alleged fraud.
In his testimony, the witness said the then Chief of Staff, Dr. Theodore Orji, and the Director of Finance and Account, Jones Udeogu, were the signatories to the account.
While being cross-examined by Kalu’s lawyer, Chief Awa Kalu (SAN), the witness said the report of the investigation carried out by his team on the matter is in the EFCC’s file and that he never had any direct interface with the former governor throughout the period of the enquiry.
“The investigation started in 2004 through intelligence gathering activities. The report about the investigation we carried out is in EFCC’s file. I never had any direct interface with the first defendant (Dr. Kalu),” the witness said.
Ejim further disclosed that he did not know the EFCC official that executed the search warrant on the office of Slok Nigeria Limited, both at Victoria Island and Apapa.
He added that he was also not aware of any backdraft that was raised in favour of Dr. Kalu (first defendant).
He said: “I don’t know the officer who executed the warrant order. I did not see any bank draft made in favour of the first defendant. No draft was raised or lodged in the first defendant’s personal account.”
The EFCC’s investigative officer had earlier told the court that sometimes in September 2005, the commission received a petition dated September 7, 2005 from a group known as Abia Leaders’ Forum. He said his team was later instructed to investigate the allegations raised by the petitioners.
The witness further disclosed that prior to the receipt of the petition, the EFCC was already building intelligence on all state governors and had already zeroed in on those who were accused of diverting their states’ funds.
“It was on this basis that our team was directed to handle the issue of Abia State. We commenced investigation by writing letters to various banks that were identified in the intelligence information. We later analysed the responses received from the banks. Search was also conducted with a search warrant on the office of Slok Nigeria Limited, both at Victoria Island and Apapa.
“Documents recovered in the course of the search were properly documented while principal officers from Abia State Government House, among whom was the then Chief of Staff, Dr. Theodore Orji, were invited for questioning. The then Director of Finance and Account, Jones Udeogu, as well as two cashiers from the Account Department of Government House, Romanus Madu and Micheal Udoh, were also invited for interrogation,” the witness said.
Further hearing in the matter continues today.

All these accusations are allegations we all know this is the price Orji kalu has to pay for standing against third term of Obasanjo. The Kalu we know was already made before getting into office to the extent of giving pdp millions when it was they started as a party.

Kalu Woos Chinese Investors To Abia State

By Kenneth Udeh – Abia State

In Nigeria, facilitating international investments into the country usually entails political leaders notably state governors embarking on foreign trips with an array of other government officials and the cost of such trips are usually offset with tax payer funds.

However, for an astute business man, former governor and a man known for his passion for human development facilitating international investment into the country was just a matter of dedication. Dr. Orji Uzor Kalu who recently travelled to the republic of China to participate in an Agricultural expo like the popular saying “killed two birds with one stone” by meeting and convincing Mr. Hu Xiao Jiang Chairman He Bei Meikeduo food group co. Ltd.

The need for the trip was inspired by Dr. Kalu’s ideals on entrepreneurship and job creation, which is in line with the federal government’s economic diversification plan for employment opportunities which lead to poverty alleviation, improved food security and GDP growth.

For proper introduction Mr. Jiang is an agro farmer based in poultry production of chicken the largest in China with supplies to Walmart, KFC and so on Mr. Jiang’s currently net worth is 7 billion dollars. It is noteworthy to state that Mr. Jiang had been to other European countries for investment purposes but had never been to Africa.

On many occasions he had been asked to come to Africa but never fully convinced not until Dr. Orji uzor Kalu convinced him to come to Nigeria and invest. The destination was Igbere, Abia State in South East Nigeria where Mr. jiang and his team were expected to arrive for exploration of its Agro potentials.

The establishment of the poultry factory will lead to the construction of a chicken processing factory from hatchery to slaughtering and packaging. The factory expected to employ an initial 1500 workforce, also to engage other dealers in other crops like maize etc.

Just as planned the Chinese Team led by Mr. Xiao Jiang arrived the Owerri Airport via Abuja and headed straight to the country home of the former governor, who coincidentally was hosting the Women Association from the Michael Okpara University of Agriculture which comprised of professors, the VC’s wife and other lecturers who were on a courtesy visit to his Excellency.

Mr. Jiang in his response through the team’s interpreter Ms. Yuan was delighted to meet with the female academicians and promised to pay a courtesy visit to the University and establish a possible cooperation with the university.

The team who couldn’t wait to explore the Agricultural potentials of the community and Abia state in general immediately set off to Ugwueke farm. The Chairman together with his team were greeted with the large expanse of the land which was estimated to be over 40 hectares covered with cassava plantation. The team did a brief tour and took samples of the cassava crops and made further inquiries.

At the end of the tour the next point of call was the local market which the team took time to visit not minding how crowded and discomfortable a local market can be the Chairman and his team entered the main market with the help of its interpreter Ms. Yuan interacted freely with the poultry meat sellers as well as the abattoir to know their challenges.

The team also visited some local Chicken farms of which they equally took time to interact with the farmers to know their challenges. The team made a stop at Shoprite Umuahia for some shopping.

The Chinese delegation visited the palace of the King of the Ugwueke community who entertained them to a mouthwatering traditional delicacies. Mr. Jiang in his response thanked the King for hosting him and his delegation. The hosting put the delegation in high spirits for a major visit to the Palace of Eze Ibinaukwu and their traditional rulers where the Chairman of the group was expected to be bestowed with a chieftaincy title.

They were welcomed with a group of traditional dancers after which they were ushered into the palace. As tradition demands Kolanuts were brought and prayers were said which officially kick start the event.
