This V for Vendetta game Buhari is playing won't end well,






There are some fights that are better left unfought,







Let him start doing the job people voted him to do,



Give us a ministerial list and crush boko haram,





Start keeping your campaign promises




In the game of power,
If you want to fight everybody





You will end up dead.

Ogbeni! Pack well.

In this interview with ENIOLA AKINKUOTU, the Publicity Secretary of the Peoples Democratic Party in Lagos State, Mr. Taofik Gani, talks about the party’s attempts to upturn the victory of Governor Akinwunmi Ambode, among other issues

The Lagos State Election Petitions Tribunal has reaffirmed Governor Akinwunmi Ambode’s victory at the poll. Doesn’t this mean that the All Progressives Congress truly won the election?

We see the ruling of the tribunal as a miscarriage of justice. It is at variance with the law because even the prayers of the petitioner and the defendant were left out only for the panel to bring up an action saying that the PDP ought to have requested for a re-election which was not part of our prayers. Our prayer was that we should be declared the winner of the election because Ambode was not validly nominated by his party as the notice of the primary given to the Independent National Electoral Commission did not meet the deadline. So, it is our intention to challenge this at the Appeal Court and we are optimistic that the court will upturn the ruling and that is why we are telling the people of Lagos to be patient as their mandate will soon be returned to them.

But does the PDP have evidence that the APC rigged the governorship election?

There is no doubt that the PDP won that election but the APC used its power of incumbency to manipulate the election. The APC has also been known to manipulate the judiciary. It is a known fact. We believe that the APC will go the extra mile to deny us our mandate but we will fight them to a logical conclusion. We are also considering petitioning the National Judicial Council over the manner in which the panel handled our case. It is not within the power of any court to have made that ruling.

How do you see the administration of Governor Ambode?

Well, the Lagos State chapter of the PDP wants to state categorically that there is no difference between Ambode and his predecessor, Mr. Babatunde Fashola. Fortunately for Ambode, he has the opportunity to put his name in the good books of the people. We believe that Ambode has the opportunity to perform but so far, he has failed to do some things that we expected him to do within the first week so that the people will know that change has come.

For instance, he has failed to take a stance on the reopening of the Lagos State University. Also, there are so many obnoxious laws which he is supposed to have immediately repealed. The issue of commercial motorcyclists, popularly called ‘okada’ riders, should be addressed in a humane manner. Although we concede that it may not be right for motorcyclists to ride on some roads, they must also be considered because they rely on this job to sustain their families.

We also expect Ambode to look into the welfare of the civil servants who are working but suffering in silence. So, we believe that Ambode is slow and is already failing so early.

How true is the allegation that some of your supporters are being maltreated by the APC-led state government?

We are already accustomed to that. We have always been in the opposition in Lagos and have always suffered victimisation. Now that the APC are in control of the Federal Government, we have been put in a more precarious situation but we are trying to wriggle out of this because Nigeria is still a nation of laws. Presently, however, there is a deliberate attack on a set of people, especially the non-indigenes in Lagos who were believed to have supported the PDP in the last elections. So, they are being attacked physically and psychologically and this is wrong. Governor Ambode cannot say it is only the Yoruba that voted for him.

You accused the state government of demolishing Igbo-dominated markets but the government has since denied this, stating that you were merely seeking attention.

It is unfortunate that Governor Ambode wants to continue with the era of Fashola where obvious mistakes were denied and diversionary attempts were made. It is a fact that before the election of Governor Ambode, the traders in the Ladipo Auto Spare Parts Market were told to either support the APC or risk their shops being demolished. We have this information on good authority. So, they are just making good their threats. It is unfortunate that the Mushin Local Government chairman is denying it now but we have video and audio evidence of this demolition. It was done illegally to ostracise the Igbo. We have told the traders to report this government to the International Criminal Court.

But the state government says the reconstruction is in line with the Lagos megacity plan and the traders agreed to it.

What the state government has done is unfair and it is unjust because this was the same government that promulgated the rent law which states that a tenant is entitled to a statutory notice before any drastic action can be taken. But the traders did not even know until the day that their shops were demolished. This is not politics but the simple truth. Ambode should know that power is transient and if he does not soft-pedal, he might become the first governor in Lagos to witness a rebellion.

What’s your take on the SURE-P crisis in Lagos?

There was never a time that the PDP recruited people into the so-called SURE-P task force. There is a Federal Government SURE-P which the state government cannot deny because they also benefitted from the money.

Unfortunately, however, some people fell into the hands of fraudsters who capitalised on the desperation of some unemployed youths but we are on the ground trying to help them recover their monies. We are aware that the APC leadership has hijacked the situation and are using it to blackmail us. Unfortunately, some members of the PDP were among the perpetrators but we have not been able to confirm that. But I can confirm to you that the PDP has no hand in the SURE-P task force.

I wish all this baseless execuses can be stopped in our politics. I wish the individual BVN or NIM ID number should also be used to further accertain our voting system

T.B. Joshua, perhaps Nigeria’s most
unconventional cleric, posted a heart-warming
story on his official Facebook Page about an
elderly lady who came to his church with an
unusual gift.
A retired teacher named Caroline Orugude had
come to The Synagogue, Church Of All Nations
(SCOAN) in Lagos, Nigeria to share a curious
testimony.
After retiring from her job in June, 2012,
Caroline was forced to wait almost two years
for the gratuity that she was supposed to
receive. “There was nothing much we could do
except pray because the pension system is so
unreliable,” she narrated to the congregation.
After visiting various churches for prayer
without any visible change, she was
introduced to Emmanuel TV, the popular
Christian television station broadcasting the
activities at The SCOAN, and began praying
along with T.B. Joshua.
Within two weeks, she received a call from the
treasury, asking her to go to Abuja to collect
her pension money. “I decided that when I got
the money, I would come to The SCOAN to
appreciate the Lord,” she joyfully said. “I am
here with the small sum of 500,000 naira, to
give to the man of God and The SCOAN, as my
tithe.”
It was an unexpected declaration but the
response of Joshua was equally surprising as
he insisted he could not collect the gift.
“Yes, it is written in the Bible that we should
pay tithe but how can we collect tithe from
widows and the aged who are supposed to be
under our care,” he questioned the
congregation.
“Remember, she has stopped working. She
needs our care for the rest of her life. These
are the women we should be feeding and
taking care of. She is our mother; she is my
mother too.”
The cleric, who is well known for his
philanthropic gestures, then announced that
instead of taking Mrs. Orugude’s tithe, he
would support her with an additional 500,000
naira.
“When God calls a man or woman, what they
will eat, what they will use and everything they
need for their journey will be provided
abundantly by God,” T.B. Joshua then
explained, noting the attributes of genuine
ministers of God.
“When a minister begins to depend on tithes,
you know he is not a minister of God,” he
added. “This is a message to ministers of God
all over the world. When we collect tithes, we
should know those whom we collect them
from. Don’t force anybody – it is between
them and God. Let us worship the Giver of
money, not money,” he concluded.
The post on Joshua’s Facebook page,
followed by 1.5 million people, ended with a
poignant question. “Where are your elderly?
Care for them and you shall reach old age.”
A video recently surfaced of Joshua refusing a
$1,000 offering from a Swiss lady who
received healing during his crusade in
Colombia. Several weeks ago, he spoke
scathingly of ‘money-hungry’ pastors,
insisting that ministers of God should not
force members to give offerings or tithes as it
was a thing of the heart.

Wow!!! That's another inspiring revelation from the Holy Bible. I reccomend that all we Christian should try to not just to read the scripture but also to understand it.

zubby29:
he dosnt transact business with a bnk,cos its an anti christ institution

Anti-Christ or not. The joy is that all what was written in the Holy Bible will come to manifestation. So happy I am serving a living God whose word will not go out without being fulfilled. Is that God not worth Serving more and more. Behold the end will come and the Just shall rise like eagles to meet my Lord up high in the sky. But the mark of the beast will come thereafter that rapture not before rapture. I would have gone with the Saints by God's grace before the torment of the MUST-MARK of the beast.

HENROSHUN:
My guy the txt was an eye opener. It was actually not meant 4 everybody but for those who earnestly await the Second Coming of Christ.(RAPTURE).

Second coming of Christ is real but unknown to any living man. But is Christ real in your heart at present. If not check ur self first

there are some truth in what you wrote...but I can swear you're also going to hell,considering the level of ur bad belle.

Judge not my friend. That's also a sin.

May God help us all.

He started failing it from the point where he struck out 10 and -10,the 10 on top is supposed to equate to -1 when divided by -1 which when put into the equation, will give you 19/10.
And secondly, you cant stricke out numbers that way. They are in brackets in their own different equations i.e an equation in an equation.
So my point is, the person who provided this so called 'proof' is a dullard

Its just a submission. You don't need to call him names. I think its a good reasoning start for any JSS student to think that way. Its a good sign. Keep trying bro.

If any one among them is innocent. He must be a fool. If you hear gun shot around your home. You should hide and not jump immediately.

When will Religion start bringing peace back to the world?

We black people with our mind set. No one want to be a nun again. That Era of girls wanting to be a Sister is gone.

snazzylove: So u deliberately want people to come and 'insalt' u. Lol

I just want to let you know that marriage is not as easy and 'handy' as you think. You may feel you've seen things bigger than your age, but believe me you aint seen nofin yet.
Dat question you asked was sooooooo wrong and uncalled for.
Pray, seriously pray that you don't go thru the rough part of 'searching' for a life partner.

Just like Godmystrengt rightly said, you'll get to understand and probably answer that your question by urself later in life.

I often wonder how time fly. Gone are the days when guys dream of becoming a Father and being a nun was also a priority for the Ladies. Recent time, not being married is seen as a plaque. We Africans should please wake up to the fact that marriage is not the ultimate goal for a woman existence. The Era for that is no more. We guys are smarter. We want an achiever, a dreamer and a responsible woman and all other qualities follows. I treat cases of divorce every thursdays. Please it could be funny to listen to many reasons for this divorces.
