Politics / Police Arrest Dino Melaye Over BMW Scandal, As Minister Sends Rented Crowd After by idirect(m): 5:33pm On Oct 23, 2013
By SaharaReporters, New York

A group of anti-corruption protesters was today in Abuja confronted by armed hoodlums escorted by the police to frustrate a public protest aimed at forcing the Minister of Aviation, Stella Oduah, to resign from office.

The Minister is facing a public uproar over her scandalous purchase of BMW armored cars from a cash-strapped agency in her ministry.

Dino Melaye, a former member of the House of Representatives, led the protest, but the protesters were attacked by the crowd who claimed they were there to ‘support’ the Minister.

The police arrested several protesters, including Mr. Melaye, saying he was leading an "illegal protest". He was taken in a car to the office of the Commissioner of Police office where he was taken into custody.

The police also seized vehicles belonging to the anti-corruption protesters, claiming they were obstructing traffic.

A contingent of police officers also prevented the protesters from leaving the Federal Secretariat area where they had gathered for the protest to the Aviation ministry.

Unlike the protesters, the police did not harass the armed hoodlums.[img][/img]

We nigerians sometimes behave as if they don't know what they want,hypocritical position on issues hardly allow them define issue. Instead of us to question the clueless government who have fail in their part protect us from this ugly incident, we are ranting against eachother. We may continue to cut our noses to spite our faces thanks to those who lack political sophistication and simplistically see everything along sectional and ethno-religious lines but the remains, JONATHAN GOVERNMENT IS A FAILURE.

Politics / Fashola Is A Gift To Nigeria - IBB by idirect(m): 5:32pm On Aug 10, 2013
Former military dictator, Ibrahim Badamosi Babangida has described Governor Fashola as a gift to Nigeria. HE made the remarks during a courtesy call on the Goveernor to sympathize with him on the passing of his father, Ademola Fashola.

Speaking during the visit at Lagos House, Marina, IBB said, “In Islam, we do pray for long life but long life does not mean living for 100 years or 500 years. We are gratified that Papa left and he left one important gift, that is Governor Raji Fashola. So we are grateful that God has spared his life to see a Governor that everybody respects in this country and I also pray that one of your children will also take the footsteps you have taken after Papa”.

Also present at the meeting was Abdulsalami Abubakar, who declared, “I keep saying that without peace, there wouldn’t be any country, without peace, there wouldn’t be people and without peace there wouldn’t be means of livelihood”.

Speaking in response to the retired Generals, Fashola prayed for peace in the country and said he hoped the promise of Nigeria will come alive during their lifetimes.

He said, “I hope that the leadership that you both provide for this country will continue to endure and that through that leadership, much more enduring peace would spread around this country and that the promise of this country will come to pass in your lifetime.”

Nairaland / General / Nigerian Bus Driver On Cell Phone Crashes Bus, Kills Infant Girl. by idirect(m): 10:46pm On Jul 31, 2013
By SaharaReporters, New York
In a freak accident, a Nigerian bus driver
said to be using his cell phone, lost control
of the vehicle which hit and knocked over a
lamp post that fell on and killed an 8 month
old baby girl.
The driver, Idowu Daramola, 48, was
driving in West New York, New Jersey, on
Tuesday afternoon when the tragic incident
occured. He was charged with reckless
driving, using a cellphone while driving and
death by auto.
Authorities in West New York said the
bus crashed into a lamppost, which fell onto
a baby stroller. The bus then hit a tree,
another lamppost and a parked car, which
struck three other parked vehicles.
Officer Michael Stetson says he found the
infant, Angela Paredes, bleeding from the
head and not breathing. She died on the
way to a hospital. Seven other people were
hurt in the incident.
The bus was reportedly operated by Sphinx
Transportation, which provides shuttle
service between New Jersey and New York
City. The company has not commented on
the accident.
"I heard a loud crash and people
screaming," said Iris Pizarro, who lives in an
apartment building across the street. "That's
when I ran to the window and saw the
mother over the baby screaming, "My
daughter! My baby!"
Daramola, who resides in Thornwood,
NY, could face 10 years in prison if
convicted of all the charges. He is scheduled
to appear in court on Thursday and is being
held on $250,000 bail.
It is not uncommon to see shuttle drivers,
mostly immigrants, talking on cellphones as
they drive although it has been a violation
of state law since 2007. It was not known at
press time whether Daramola was texting
or talking on his cell when the tragedy
occured.
