Chika Okpala Of "The New Masquerade" Is 73 Today

Wishing Nigerian actor/comedian Chika Okpala, MFR a happy birthday today (born June 10, 1950). He is popularly known as Chief Zebrudaya Okoroigwe Nwogbo alias 4:30, an appellation he got from his role as "Chief Zebrudaya" in a TV comedy series, New Masquerade (1983-1993).

Happy birthday Chief Zebrudaya

aswani:
Tinubu is happy with the status quo, he believes Atiku came second and Obi third, both with 2 million votes each less than him, as per the INEC declarations. Let those that believe otherwise show their ecidence.

I am a Yoruba man living in Akure, Ondo state. I was going to somewhere around GRA, Alagbaka, Akure, Ondo state. I stopped this bike and we started discussion based on negotiation on price, this discussion led to taking about northern Nigeria. I learnt he's even a Christian, I was surprised that was possible. We started discussing how we have lot of christians on nassarawa, plateau, kaduna, Kano etc. This led to discussion about how Igbos constitute majority of those christians. And yet they cannot even HIDE THEIR HATE FOR HAUSAs AND MUSLIMS. According to him, he said "people who dey do that, dey no go school". I.e they are illiterates. I can only wonder the extent christians show their hate to Hausa. They'll hype southern kaduna and close their eyes to killings of Hausa in jos, I almost lost a boss(Yoruba man) because he looks like Hausa,. He'll have been killed by people in jos. Same to bandits and kidnapping in North. As if it's only southern kaduna that's facing insecurity in North. Change your ways, igbo. You can't be loved anywhere with this hatred mentality. During bubari, it was Fulani herdmen. Now, it's Tinubu. Only God knows what you'll call the Yorubas. It's well oo

JUST-IN: Ignore Fake News, Kyari Is Still Substantive GCEO Of NNPC—Presidency
OIL & GAS

By Ifeanyi Onuba On Jun 10, 2023


Contrary to speculations making the round that President Bola Tinubu has directed the suspension of Mallam Mele Kyari as the Group Chief Executive Officer of the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Ltd, there is no such directive from the President.

Presidency sources confided in THE WHISTLER on Saturday night that the President has not given such directive for the suspension of Kyari as NNPC Boss.

Social media platforms were abuzz on Saturday evening with several posts claiming the President had directed the immediate suspension of Kyari as NNPC GCEO.

The social media posts of the purported suspension of Kyari gained traction as it was coming barely 24 hours after the Presidency announced the suspension of Godwin Emefiele from office as the Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria.

Multiple sources in the Presidency told THE WHISTLER that there is no such plan to suspend Kyari as the GCEO of the NNPC.


One of the sources said, “We got to know about the purported suspension through social media posts. But I can confirm to you that there is no such directive coming from the President. Nigerians are known to play a lot with trends and someone may just have sat down somewhere to make such posts.

“There is no iota of truth in that post claiming that the President has suspended the NNPC GCEO. There is nothing to be worried about because the Petroleum Industry Act is clear on how the NNPC GCEO or any member of the NNPC Board could be removed.”

When contacted, an Aide to the Secretary to the Government of the Federation told THE WHISTLER that they have not received any of such directive from the President.

“Please disregard those reports because they are fake news. We don’t have such directive from the President to suspend Kyari,” the Aide said.

The source said the Presidency will not dignify rumour mongers with an official response.

Lutherblaq:
Obi and Tinubu lawyers are their tribesmen but atiku's lawyers ain't and i really like that i pray he won

aswani:
It's not for President Tinubu to bring one single evidence against anyone, he is a respondent.

We need to see evidence regarding votes that Obi has claimed were his and were allocated to someone else.

SwissMass:
Peter girigory Obi is wasting his time, so he is dwelling on interviews and inability of the INEC to upload the election results as a way to recover his manhood in the gutter in Agulu

ba7man:
Do you see Atiku / Tinubu walking up and down the courtroom like Obi? That's some Kenneth Okonkwo ish.

Did you see them running from TV station to TV Station granting interviews like Obi? Thats some Buba Galadima ish.

They got levels and know how to portray power, nor running up and down places uninvited and buying fuel by themselves like Obi

Obi no get levels.

PerfectStranger:
Fun days growing up,i use to believe wrestling is real. Days of Undertaker and Ultimate warrior, later discovered it's scripted.

RIP WWE champion Sheik.

Confirmedzombie:
You are very bias and always reporting to raise the hope of the brainwashed obedients.

Nobody cares what you pist. Obi cannot win in court.

All his evidences are quack and road side evidences.

We are waiting for obi witnesses to start testifying .

The witnesses will expose obi .

Walks outta this bias thread

Nonsense

Jagungidi:
No he is being punished for trying to make a mockery of the court and absenteeism. Gosh! You people will defend anything just because your tribe member is involved! Get a grip, we are NOT IN A DICTATORSHIP.

Ayodeoba:
By the time tribunal is done with obi, they won’t only throw his case out, they will throw him in jail for the false documents he is presenting in the court

It's very worrisome if you ask me too. This is a matter that's very clear before the law. Seriously, it doesn't call for argument. It doesn't call for witnesses. The constitution is our witness in this case.

The major problem with our lawyers is that we don't stand for the law took an oath to uphold. It's about money now and not about the law. However, my greatest fear is when we use our own hands to rubbish the law profession, because, for what I know, the constitution is the primary object of the law profession and when you choose to rubbish it, it renders the profession useless.

People respect the law because of the lawyers that interpret the law and not because of the law itself. The law itself is nothing without lawyers to interpret it. And when you try to interpret obvious matters wrongly, what faith is in the profession again? What's the point of running to the law again? So, for me, I see this whole matter beyond the people in the picture but what becomes of the profession in the nearest future because with the way we are going, people may just see it useless to hire a lawyer or run to the law. By then, even the course in university will become useless because no one will want to study a course that has been reduced to nothing.

I really don't have time for this so I can't argue with you either so, to augment your amusement and address your comment, I will refer you to this submission published on The Nigerian Lawyer and posted September 15, 2021:

Chapter VIII Part I Section 299

Penguin2:
Lol!

The thing no shock u?

Nobody remembers that Atiku contested the 2023 election anymore.

It is Obi morning, afternoon and night.

solmusdesigns:
Cross examination of Obi's witness would be really funny

Coming 3rd, failing to get popular vote, failing to get 25% in 2/3 states

lagonovo:
The constitution clearly stated that its provisions apply to FCT as a state.

samuelson06:
The duty of the lawyers is to defend the constitution and the constitution isn't about anybody but Nigeria. It's very clear what the constitution says in regards to the matter at hand. Do you rather prefer the constitution be trampled because of one man?

Remember, both of us were not there when that clause was included in the constitution. So, it's immaterial to start comparing Abuja with other states but what the law says. I hope you understand.

olusogo:
The question you should be asking is why 25% in FCT more important than Enugu, Osun or Taraba State?

It is long settled that FCT is not different from other States of the Federation. Nigeria has 37 States and FCT meaning to be treated like 38 States.

lagonovo:
Where did you pull that from? You guys simply have no clue how the law works so it's better for you to just keep observing until we have a ruling. You can't just manufacture any IF statement that suits your fancy unless you are prepared to show any section of our constitution that mentioned 'Governor of FCT'.

josilcool:
Atiku did not have 25% in FCT and also 2/3 of the federation. He came 2nd

Obi did not have 25% in 2/3 of the federation but have it in FCT. He came 3rd

Tinubu did not have 25% in FCT but have it in 2/3 of the federation. He came 1st

Who is now qualify to be declare as president..?

N3TRAL:
Nemo Judex in Causa Sua

The NLC Chairman endorsed a letter that adopted Peter Obi as the choice of the NLC in February 2023 during the Naira scarcity crisis that affected Nigerian workers. He therefore supported the infliction of pain on Nigerian workers because Obi supported the policy and thought it was going to make Obi win.

On the 1st of May 2023, during Workers' day event, the NLC Chairman stood with Obi on the podium and announced that Obi will reclaim his "delusional" mandate.

There's conflict of interest because the NLC Chairman overtly supports Peter Obi. He is using his position to threaten Nigeria's stability because Peter Obi lost woefully.

Margaret Thatcher did it as the Prime Minister of UK so Tinubu can do it. The Iron Lady dismantled and subdued stronger Trade/ Labour Unions of Britain that has and still has better Labour Laws and judicial independence than Nigeria.

If Tinubu doesn't play politics that destroys the NLC and makes the union irrelevant, I'll score him low.
