Politics › Why Atiku Dumps Wike, Chooses Okowa As Running Mate For Presidential Election by iamwilliamsfx(op): 10:48am On Jun 21, 2022
Presidential candidate of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) Atiku Abubakar has announced Delta State governor as his running mate for the 2023 presidential election. Atiku announced Okowa’s nomination on Thursday at an unveiling event of his running mate held in Abuja. Okowa will thereafter be screened by a committee set up by PDP national working committee. Atiku said making a choice between the three names had been a difficult decision. He noted that some of the qualities he looked out for include someone who understands the enormity of the challenges facing the country and one who has demonstrated, from experience, that he can proffer some solutions. PDP National Chairman Iyorchia Ayu had said a 17-member committee was set up by the party to pick a running mate for Atiku.
He said the committee had submitted three names that including Okowa, Rivers State governor Nyesom Wike and Akwa Ibom State governor, Udom Emmanuel. to Atiku. Ayu, however, said the final decision on the party’s vice-presidential candidate was for Atiku to make. The Guardian gathered that NWC members voted 13-3 to endorse the report of the stakeholders’ panel which had earlier nominated Wike to be Atiku’s running mate. Okowa got only three votes. Amid rumours that Atiku might not settle for Wike, who came second during the presidential primary election, PDP spokesman Debo Ologunagba said the Rivers State governor was still in the race.


“If anything, our Party reiterates its confidence in Governor Nyesom Wikes’s outstanding ability and commitment to the ideals and values of the PDP,” Ologunagba said in a statement. “His records of achievement as a Local Government Chairman, Chief of Staff to the Rivers State Governor, Minister of State for Education, currently Governor of Rivers State and the runner-up in the PDP Presidential Primary stand him out as possessing requisite qualities, qualifications, capacity and wide acceptability for the position of the Vice-Presidential candidate of our Party. “The various positions creditably held by Governor Nyesom Wike distinguished him as an excellent team player in public governance.”

Politics › Militants Reportedly Attack Oil Vessel, Kill Sailor by iamwilliamsfx(op): 2:56pm On Jun 19, 2022
A foreign speed boat believed to be conveying oil equipment was reportedly attacked Sunday morning near Bakassi waters, controlled by Cameroon forces. One of the sailors, according to sources, was caught by a flying bullet. Security personnel who accompanied the boat were said to have abandoned the boat and fled when the attackers opened fire at the boat. The militants are suspected to be armed loyalists of the Biafra Nations League, BNL which operates mostly around the Bakassi maritime creeks.
The foreign boat was said to be heading towards the maritime border area with Nigeria. The sources said the incident occurred at Archibong town, Isangele subdivision of Bakassi Peninsula on the side of Cameroon but that the attackers were unable to hijack the boat as intended. Nigeria and Cameroon are jointly exploring oil at the maritime borders of the Bakassi Peninsula in accordance with the Green Tree Agreements which ceded part of the Peninsula to Cameroon.
Insecurity and pirate attacks have continued to increase in that axis in recent times with Biafra separatists being the major challenge. Reacting on his Facebook page, the leader of BNL, Princewill Richards said he met with leaders in Bakassi Peninsula and called for collaboration between stakeholders to stem the rising insecurity in the region...

Politics › Reason Why Majority Of Igbos Won't Vote For Peter Obi by iamwilliamsfx(op): 9:48pm On Jun 18, 2022
A chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Imo State, Hon. Dennis Adikwuru has commended the ongoing clamour by Igbos, especially those residing outside the South-East for mass registration and collection of Permanent Voter Cards (PVCs) preparatory to the 2023 general elections, describing the development as a noble initiative for Ndigbo to wake up from their slumber. Speaking in a statement made available to Sunday Independent at the weekend, Adikwuru said the huge population of Igbos who had been trooping out in Lagos and other parts of the country following the call, stressing that the Igbos had been the most apolitical in terms of participation in the electoral processes leading to the election of leaders at the various governance levels in Nigeria. He said that understandably, the wake-up call had been rekindled by the growing agitation for the occupation of Nigeria’s presidential seat by an Igbo man come 2023.

Adikwuru stated that during the preliminaries leading to the presidential primaries of the two major political parties, APC and PDP, many Igbos of the South East came out en masse to aspire for the presidential ticket of their parties, adding that no less than 10 Igbos showed up for the elusive position in both parties. He noted that one of them, Peter Obi, resigned his membership of PDP and joined Labour Party (LP), which adopted him as its presidential candidate. Adikwuru noted that since Obi’s emergence as Labour Party’s presidential flag bearer, a new wave of aura and euphoria had greeted his (Obi’s) entry into the presidential race with a section of the youths vowing to enthrone the LP flag bearer as Nigeria’s next president. He said: “This sudden exuberance has crept into the APC and PDP with few of their members having divided loyalty between their main parties’ candidates and Labour Party’s Peter Obi, a seemingly confusion and indecision that requires urgent analytical guidance and redirection. “Much as the Igbos legitimately deserve the ascendance to the presidency of our dear country, Nigeria, it is important to posit here that with time and in the course of the presidential campaigns, we shall realise that Peter Obi under Labour Party, cannot muster winning votes for the presidential seat.

“As it is today, Igbos will need to reintegrate into national and mainstream politics in order to route into the presidency of the country. “The APC as the sitting party at the centre of governance has failed to incorporate the Igbos into the presidential office, having fielded Bola Tinubu, a follower of the late Obafemi Awolowo, whose alleged hatred for the Igbo nation knew no bounds. Tinubu, in turn, will pick a Hausa VP, thereby moving to perpetuate the Yoruba/Hausa political hold.” Adikwuru recalled that PDP’s Atiku Abubakar had held that power should move to the South East and as such, he would have supported Ndigbo if PDP had zoned the presidency to South East, adding that his stand was premised on the assumption that both major political parties would anchor their presidential tickets on the South East. “But, the body language and intrigues in APC routed for the South West, while persons like River’s Nyesom Wike, another arch-enemy of Ndigbo, blocked the chances of South-East to produce the presidential candidate of PDP. In the political arena, even the socio, economic and cultural circles, you can only give what you have hold on.” He added: “The Igbo agitation for the presidency is gaining momentum with much sensitisation for our people to obtain their PVCs. While this goes on, there are seen and unforeseen clandestine and inordinate strategic power plays which make or mar the outcome of elections, especially the presidential election. “The euphoria greeting Peter Obi/Labour Party’s social media vibes should be approached with caution because the Igbos have only five states and even if securing bulk votes for Peter Obi, the deciding votes are resident in the North. “We should also as Igbos realise that the Monday and other occasional sit-at-homes have far-reaching negative implications for the Igbo quest for the presidency as other parts of the country will suggest the possibility of IPOB locking up the entire country, thereby running down the nation’s economy. “In the face of these and other unfolding political scenarios, the best option for Igbo reintegration into mainstream politics remains the PDP Atiku Abubakar presidency. “For reasons of real party loyalty and belief in party policy directions, we should, as PDP members, hold faith in PDP and our presidential candidate. “Again, we should not lose sight of the fact that our own principal, Rt Hon Emeka Ihedioha, is very much in the power play circle currently ongoing and he understands what benefits Ndigbo under the present dispensation. “I, therefore, urge all of us, PDP faithful, to remain committed to the decisions and candidature of our great party, PDP. Take it or leave it, the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) under Atiku Abubakar as our presidential candidate, is poised and set to launch back to the Presidential Villa come 2023. “There is a need to put a halt to the clapping and applause being rendered to Peter Obi as doing that will not earn the presidency for Ndigbo.”.

Politics › How Enugu Catholic Church Disowns Mbaka Over Attack On Peter Obi by iamwilliamsfx(op): 9:31am On Jun 17, 2022
ENUGU—THE Catholic church in Enugu has disowned Rev. Fr. Ejike Mbaka, the fiery director of Catholic Adoration Ministry Enugu, over his verbal attack on Peter Obi, the presidential candidate of Labour Party for 2023 elections. Mbaka has been trending in the social media over his comments that Peter Obi is stingy that he would not win the election. He said many abusive things about Peter which drew public anger on him in the social media. Mbaka also claimed that he with others he mentioned, helped to restore Obi to power when he was impeached and expressed anger that the former governor did not reward him. He said that the apology he earlier tendered to Peter Obi was not out of his volition but under duress from his Bishop. Reacting to this the Catholic Diocese of Enugu disassociated itself from Mbaka’s utterances. A statement signed by the Auxiliary Bishop of Enugu Most Rev Ernest Anezichukwu Obodo, the Chancellor/ Secretary, Rev Fr Wlifred Chidi Agubuchie and Vicar General, Very Rev Fr, Geoffrey Aguigwo and send to pressmen in Enugu said the action of Mbaka was contrary to canon 220 of the 1983 Code of Canon Law which prohibits anyone from illegitimately harming the good name of a person. “The attention of the Diocesan Bishop, Most Rev. Callistus V.C Onaga, and the Catholic Diocese of Enugu has been drawn to the inflammatory political utterances by Rev. Fr. Camillus Ejike Mbaka, the Director of Catholic Adoration Ministry Chaplaincy Enugu, on Wednesday, 15 June 2022 during his Wednesday Adoration Programme. “Fr. Mbaka during his preaching attacked the good reputation of Mr. Peter Obi, the Labour Party Presidential Candidate, describing him as “a stingy man'” and as “a joker”, contrary to canon 220 of the 1983 Code of Canon Law which prohibits anyone from illegitimately harming the good name of a person “He also made fun of the Labour Party and vowed that Mr. Obi could not be the president of Nigeria. This is a clear violation of the provisions of canon 287 (2) which forbids priests from engaging in partisan politics. “The Catholic Diocese of Enugu hereby condemns and dissociates herself from such unbecoming and divisive utterances from Fr. Mbaka. We notify the general public that Fr. Mbaka’s views on the matter are entirely personal to him and do not represent the position of the Catholic Diocese of Enugu.”

Politics › 2023: Why Peter Obi Will Never Become Next President – Fr Mbaka by iamwilliamsfx(op): 9:17am On Jun 17, 2022
The Spiritual Director of Adoration Ministry Enugu, Nigeria, AMEN, Fr Ejike Mbaka has revealed why Presidential candidate of Labour Party, LP, Mr Peter Obi will never become the next President of Nigeria. The fiery Priest who made this known at the Adoration ground said that Mr Obi is stingy and has been cursed, stressing that it would be better to have an old man as President than a ‘stingy young man’..

Hear him, “A stingy man, that cannot give people his money, with this hunger ravaging the land, and you are saying he is the one you want. You want to die of hunger? Are you people insane? Where is the Holy Spirit? “It is now that Atiku is seriously contesting for President; now that he is contesting without Peter Obi; it is now that he is serious? We want somebody that is serious. Unless Peter comes here to kneel, if he becomes President, he will close down this ministry. What we are doing is spiritual.
“Listen, a good old man is better than a young wicked man; Peter Obi is going nowhere as far as God lives. If Igbos want a representative, it is not someone like Peter Obi. “I should not have talked but I saw my video going round everywhere as if Fr. Mbaka wholeheartedly came out and apologized. No, I didn’t apologize wholeheartedly, it was out of duress. I had to obey my Bishop, in obedience I had to, it is not of my volition. I did it because I am a Catholic Priest, my Bishop said, do it, my own is ‘Yes my Lord’.

I did not say he is a bad man; I said he is a stingy man. A hungry man wants someone that is generous; the man has so much money, but he is ‘I, me, myself’. But that money will not be useful to him. I am very happy now that I have spoken out. That apology is a poisonous curse against Peter Obi. “If he is wise he should have come here after that apology to say he is sorry but he waited. Anybody supporting him is wasting his money, he is going nowhere

“He is my friend. When he was chased out of Government House, he knew the role I played to bring him back, but how did he pay me back? Night meetings we attended to bring him back, ask him, ask Eselu Uga, ask Archbishop Anikwenwa, they know where and how we did it and he was brought back. “Ask Peter since then what he used to reward Adoration. If you like Peter Obi, tell him to come and ask for forgiveness. Let him come and redo what he did. There is an altar of God he blasphemed; he defiled an altar of God, the Holy Spirit. “I called Atiku after that apology, he was in Dubai, I told him that there is a revelation on your presidential election; that you are going to be the President of Nigeria on one condition, that Peter Obi is not going to be your running mate. Peter Obi has incurred a curse to himself, which means that he is carrying a curse; if you want to be President, change him. “Atiku responded that I cannot, Peter must be my running mate, we must win. You saw what happened. Atiku is still alive. That is why I said it is now that Atiku is preparing to be President. “Just like Jonathan, I called him, God has shown that you are going to win this election but on one condition; Jega should be changed. If you change Jega you will win Buhari, but if you don’t, Buhari will win you. Goodluck told me, ‘Fr. I will not remove Jega, we will still win’. He held on to Jega and failed.

Celebrities › 98% Of Married Men In Nigeria Have Girlfriends ― Boma Bbnaija by iamwilliamsfx(op): 8:27am On Jun 17, 2022
One of the most talked-about BBNaija season 6 housemates, Akpore Boma, has said that 98% of married men in Nigeria have girlfriends. Boma, who was allegedly romantically involved with a married housemate, Tega Offiong Dominic-Ajebo, in the BBNaija season 6, made this known during the reunion show that aired on Thursday night with other housemates. You would recall that Boma and Tega made news after they had an amorous affair while in the BBNaija house, and were criticised by viewers of the show. While some dragged Tega for being with a man other than her husband, others slammed Boma for having an affair with a married woman. However, the businesswoman, Tega earlier this year revealed that her marriage with Ajebo Lawrence ended in 2020, which was before the show. Tega, while defending the romantic affair she had with Boma during the show, told Ebuka and other housemates that she decided to use marriage as a strategy on the show which led to numerous backlash. She said, “For a fact, I didn’t go into the show as married. I went in as separated. In all my interviews, I clearly stated it. I went in as separated. “During our conversations and introductions, I just said well I’m married and I have a kid. That was supposed to be a strategy. “Getting deep into the show, I then discovered that this was doing something great in a bad way to me.” On his own part, Ebuka had asked Boma “Why did you think that going all-in with Tega, a married woman was the route to go in the house?” Boma responded saying “I didn’t say that, what I did was right or wrong but I knew something that other housemates didn’t know, Tega told me she was separated at that time.” Furthermore, Tega insisted that what she had with Boma was just friendship and everything that happened was just a game. No feelings Boma who further justified his action with Tega stated in clear terms that 98% of married men have girlfriends in Nigeria.
Crime › How Kaduna Police Kill 4 Bandits, Arrest Suspected Female Gun-runner by iamwilliamsfx(op): 8:18am On Jun 17, 2022
KADUNA—Four suspected bandits have been killed by police operatives of the Special Tactical Squad Force Headquarters, Abuja (STS) in conjunction with Operation Yaki of the Kaduna State Command. A woman, who allegedly supplied firearms and ammunition to the criminals was also arrested by the operatives. Kaduna State Police Command’s spokesman, DSP Muhammad Jalige, said: “On June 15, 2022 at about 0650hrs while on the trail of suspected armed bandits, the operatives intercepted their target along Saminaka–Jos expressway in a Sharon vehicle, blue in colour, driven by one James Dawi 31yrs old of Vom town, Jos South LGA, Plateau State. “The suspected bandits on sensing an unavoidable danger posed in their way to deliver some dangerous weapons to their cohorts engaged the operatives, firing sporadically. However, the operatives with tactical precision were able to terminally injure four suspects. “The injured suspects were evacuated to Barau Dikko Teaching Hospital Kaduna where they were pronounced dead by a medical doctor. “The encounter lasted about 30 minutes as the firepower of the Police forced them to retreat into the forest with bullet wounds. “When a search was conducted in the vehicle and around the vicinity, the following exhibits were recovered: one AK-$9 rifle loaded with six rounds of live ammunition, AK-47 rifle, one empty magazine, 134 rounds of different calibre of live ammunition and operational motor vehicle. “The operation led to the arrest of a female accomplice, who during investigation, confessed to supplying arms and ammunition to bandits within Kaduna State.”

Politics › How 53-yr-old London Returnee Was Killed, Dumped In Septic Tank by iamwilliamsfx(op): 8:08am On Jun 17, 2022
It’s been six years since the Animashaun family in Surulere Lagos were thrown into mourning over the death of their breadwinner, Kolawole Animashaun who had just relocated from London to Nigeria. After living in London for the most part of his life and raising a family, the late 53- year-old Kolawole decided it was time to return home. Not sure what to expect, he returned with only one of his daughters, leaving his wife and other children back in London.
For a while, things appeared to be going on well for Kolawole as he gradually gained ground in a business venture. Within two years of his return, he was also able to buy a good property in Surulere. With everything going well, Kolawole was contemplating bringing back his entire family from London when the unexpected happened. Daughter recounts ordeal Kolawole’s daughter, Lola Animashaun who was with him until he was kidnapped, told Encounter that on Sunday, July 30, 2016, her father left their Ikorodu home for Surulere with one of his uncles who was sick. By the evening of that day, Lola said his father called to say that he was not returning home. Lola noted that she heard a strange voice in the background during their conversation but didn’t read much meaning to it.
“During the call, I heard a strange laugh at the background. It was a strange and wicked kind of laughter. Immediately, I heard my father say, ‘what do you people mean,’ then he said to me, ‘I will call you back,’ and ended the call,” she narrated. Lola said she got worried when her father didn’t call back as he promised. “When he didn’t call back, I called him but his phone was switched off. At night, I tried his number but it wasn’t going. I called my uncle whom he had gone to drop and he said that my father had left his house.”

Chat with kidnappers Unknown to Lola that her father had been kidnapped and his phone seized, she began to chat with the kidnappers believing that she was chatting her father. “I started chatting with my father’s kidnappers in the middle of the night thinking I was chatting with my father. They replied my chat and told me that he was fine that he went to Aguda to see a friend. On the second day, I called his line but he wasn’t responding. I told him to pick his call that he should no longer chat with me and that I was becoming scared. He replied and said he can’t call and that he was very busy.”

Strange requests Lola said she got suspicious of the chat with her father when he started asking for his own personal information. “The person on the other end started asking for vital information of my dad like his account number and I was like ‘of course you know you had locked your door and the key to your room is with you, so how do you expect me to open the door?’ At that point, I told him to pick his call but he still refused. It finally dawned on me then that my father had been kidnapped and that I was chatting with his kidnappers.”

Emotional torment Continuing her narrative, Lola said she reported that matter to the Police who advised her to continue communicating with the kidnappers while they proceed with their investigation. “After we reported the matter to the Police, the kidnappers were always sending me scary pictures. Though I was scared for my life but the Police advised that I should continue communicating with them. “One of them always told me that he was going to pluck out my father’s eyes and give it to the vultures. He also threatened that he was going to butcher my father and that after he was done with him, he will come after me. “He tormented me emotionally. He always said that I am a wicked and heartless child that I don’t want to sell my father’s property and send him the money. “I told him that the money is not the problem but that he should just let me hear my father’s voice to know that he is fine. But on and on he was just playing with our intelligence. N5m ransom “At first, they demanded N5 million ransom but later reduced it to N2 million. When we couldn’t raise the money, they said we should send N100,000 for my father’s drugs which we did. I also sent them another N100, 000 for recharge card. After that, they told me to sell all my father’s property and send them the money. “I told them that I wasn’t going to sell anything because it appears that my father has been killed. He told me he was coming after me to show me my father’s corpse and I told him to come because I was already lost and tired. I deleted my whatsapp because it was our means of communication, I told police I could no longer continue with the chat. “I was always living in fear, going from church to mosque. I also spent money consulting native doctors all to no avail.” He told me to get my dad’s drug else he was going to let him die. We sent N10,000 for his drug. After then, we sent him another N100,000 to let him know that we will give him money if he allows us to just hear from my father. One of the kidnappers kept calling different contacts on my father’s phone, telling them different stories. Although I made a payment to my father’s account number, but unfortunately for him, he forwarded his own account number to one of my dad’s friends. When we noticed that the Police investigation was not yielding any positive response after we spent a lot of money, one of my aunts asked me to write a petition to DSS office located at Magodo, Lagos. I wrote the petition, gave them all the necessary information, and they promised to call me back, I was always checking up on them and they promised that they were almost done with their investigation. I became scared along the line because the kidnapper was always telling me that he was coming after me and that he was going to pluck my eyes and my father’s eyes and give to vultures to eat. He said he was going to kill him because I was not ready to drop money. “ DSS intervenes After months of frustration and empty promises by the Police, Lola said she took the matter to the Department of State Services, DSS, Shangisha Lagos which took over the investigation and within one month, arrested the kidnappers. “Around November 24, 2016, I got a call from DSS office and they told me to come to their office and I went with one of my dad’s friends. It was then they told us that, they had clue on what happened, showed us his phones, ATM cards picture of his car and a picture on how they exhumed his corpse from a soak-away pit where he was buried after he was killed. “His body had completely decomposed. We then went to the morgue the next day to identify his corpse properly. The only thing left was his golden tooth that was yet to decay.” Masterminds arrested, arraigned In 2017, the two masterminds behind Kolawole’s kidnap, Bode Fabiyi and Afeez Ahmed, were arraigned before the Lagos High Court, sitting in Tafawa Balewa Square, TBS, Lagos. The Lagos State prosecution led by Mrs. Adeshina Adekunle-Bello and Mrs Titilayo Olanrewaju-Daud, told the court that the defendants conspired amongst themselves to kill the victim, Kolawole Animashaun. She said that the duo, after kidnapping Animashaun, blindfolded him, tied him up and gagged his mouth before strangling him to death. The prosecution also told the court that they broke the head of the deceased with a big sledge hammer before strangling him to death and dumped his corpse in a soakaway pit. Olanrewaju-Daud further told the court that Bode Fabiyi and Afeez Ahmed, also sold the deceased’s car and still demanded for ransom from his family. Death sentence After five years of trial, Justice Modupe Nico-Clay sentenced the defendants to death by hanging for kidnapping and killing Kolawole. The judge also sentenced them to 77 years imprisonment after finding them guilty of the offence of conspiracy to murder, kidnapping, murder, collecting of ransom and dumping of corpse in a soakaway pit. She further sentenced them to 14 years imprisonment for the first count and sentenced them to death on the second count charge and 21 years each for counts 3, 4 and 5 respectively. Justice Nico-Clay stated that the prosecution has been able to prove its case beyond reasonable doubt that the convicts committed the offence. The judge held that the offence of conspiracy to commit murder and kidnapping has been established. “That the deceased died, that it was the defendant that caused the death of the deceased.” Consolation Speaking with Encounter immediately after the judgment, Lola said: ‘The judgment is fair enough but it is not going to bring my father back neither is it going to take off this scary moment from my thoughts. But at least, we had justice for his lovely soul.
