Goodluck Jonathan's Chatham House
Protest Disaster - My Story By Rose
Peter Graham
Opponents of the truths captured in
the video clips have ferociously used
these comments to not only cover up
and distract attention to the
seriousness of the deceptive acts that
were made bare in the coverage but also
to threaten my safety, attack my
credence and vilify my personality on
social and mass media.
Hj

On Thursday February 26th 2015 I
produced a series of video clips which
covered the demonstrations by some
Nigerians in the United Kingdom outside
Chatham House where the leading
Nigerian opposition All Progressive
Congress (APC) leader Gen. Muhammadu
Buhari (GMB)) was giving a speech.
As I mentioned in one of the video clips,
I was there in my attempt to secure an
interview with the General. My previous
attempts to secure such an interview
with General Buhari for a TV programme
I co present on BEN-TV
‘PolitrickswithKO’ had failed and I was
hoping to be able to catch up with
General Buhari after his Chatham House
presentation.
Whilst waiting for my cameraman to
arrive, I noticed the demonstration
unfolding and with a moment of
spontaneity I started interviewing some
of the demonstrators. Some of the
responses to my interview questions
were quite alarming and this prompted
my recording of this unexpected
encounter using the video camera on my
phone.
As is evident from the video clips, the
recordings were totally unscripted and
uploaded online onto my personal
Facebook page unedited momentarily, I
had no opportunity to review or edit the
video.
Some of the comments I made
unwittingly in one of the video clips
relating to the personal appearances,
hygiene and status of some of the
demonstrators were most certainly
unbecoming of a professional journalist
of my calibre. I totally accept that at
the very least such personal comments
should not have been made and at the
very most should have been edited off
before uploading those video clips.
For those comments I made, I would
like to take this opportunity to publicly
offer my sincere apologies.
Opponents of the truths captured in
the video clips have ferociously used
these comments to not only cover up
and distract attention to the
seriousness of the deceptive acts that
were made bare in the coverage but also
to threaten my safety, attack my
credence and vilify my personality on
social and mass media.
Whilst I have restrained to respond
individually to the tactics used by these
opponents, I find it necessary to use
this opportunity to also address some
of the baseless and outrageous
comments which have been propagating
on various online platforms and
networks as follows:
- Re. “exposing her 2 month old baby”; “
To whoever made this assertion, if you
are going to use the age of my baby to
attack the quality of my motherhood,
the least you could do is get my baby’s
age right!!!
Figuring out the age of my baby is quite
a simple thing to research from the
online announcements of my baby’s
birth.
If you can’t get this simple thing
correct to begin with I wonder what
else you could so possibly get wrong, on
the other hand if you could have gotten
this right but deliberately seek to
restate my baby’s age then I questions
your motive for such a fundamental
distortion of facts.
- Re. “baby wept throughout the whole
event”
Either the person making such a
statement was not at the event, did not
watch the video clips or is hell bent on
defamation of my character as a
mother.
- Re. “We are still investigating how
much APC paid their camera lady… She
can’t just be too poor to afford £50
per day for child minder”
How much of a contradiction there is
between the parts of this statement!!!
I’ll address the first part of that
statement later, but for now family
matters first.
To the person making this statement, I
ask do you have experience with third
party childcare provisions in the UK?
If so, have you thought of the fact that
I could have called around seeking
availability for a day placement with a
registered child minder before making
the decision to take my baby along with
Me

[s][/s] trash

[s][/s]

1toRtoiSe1:
FYI, I’m a full time mother by choice
and when the rear and impromptu
opportunity for a chance to interview
the General came to my attention I did
call around seeking a registered child-
minder for the day but there were no
space available for that day with a child-
minder licenced to look after under 2
years old. Due to my husband’s work
commitment on that day he could not
take the day off work as he would
normally have done with advance notice.
The decision that I take our baby along
to the event was made by me and my
husband after weighing the
circumstances and the facts about the
event available to us. So if you don’t
know, please ask.
If the person making such a statement
does not have experience with third
party childcare provisions in the UK,
then FYI one does not just call up on
anybody to be a child-minder just
because you have “£50” to pay for their
service.
- Re. “She even refused to use
Umbrella”
Again I say, either the person making
such a statement was not at the event,
did not watch the video clips or is hot
bent on defamation of character by way
of false statement.
- Re. “exposing her baby to harm”
When I left my home with my baby that
lovely Thursday last week, I was
heading to Chatham House seeking to
have an opportunity to interview the
General. If the person is making this
statement is not familiar with Chatham
House, well it is a highly regarded think
tank institution in a respectable area in
a peaceful country. For crying out loud,
stop making it sound as if I was heading
with my baby to a war torn or conflict
ridden area and stop attempting to use
such tactics to distract attention from
the underlying truths captured in the
video clips. In the United Kingdom
protests are monitored by law
enforcement officers, on the day of the
protest the Metropolitan Police did not
see any reason to declare the protest
venue Chatham house as unsafe for
journalists or Children. If they had any
reason to I would have been alerted on
arrival.
As is also so very apparent from the
video clips, the people present at the
event either for or against General
Buhari and the APC were very pleasant
to my baby and receptive of his
presence there.
- Re. “a sacked ex staff of NTA”
To the person who made such total and
outright ignorant claim, do you know
that even after I resigned from NTA to
pursue a career move working for
another company I was still presenting
the Sugar n Spice TV on NTA2 show on
my own time up to the point of my
leaving Nigeria to join my husband in
the United Kingdom?
Do you know that even after relocating
to the UK arrangements were made
such that I was in consultation as a
producer of the Sugar n Spice on NTA2
show up to the point I could not
continue doing so because of my
pregnancy?
How could you reconcile these facts
with such a baseless statement of
yours?
- Re. “an agent of the APC”
Whilst I openly and publicly make known
my support for the General Buhari the
candidate of the APC as a Nigerian with

a freeborn right and liberty to choose
and support candidates if and when I
deem it fit, I must say I find it really
flattering to be labelled an agent of the
APC.
This is especially so flattering given the
fact that the previous Saturday I was
treated like a gate crasher at the
reception held by the party in honour of
the General at the Waterloo Park Plaza
in London and not allowed into the main
area of the event.
That was after the embarrassment I
felt having persuaded a very reluctant
husband of mine to cut short our family
outing that day and dragging him along
to a political event outside his comfort
zone only for me not to be allowed into
the main area of the reception part!!!!
So I’m very flattered by this statement
and say to thanks for the compliment,
this is happily received.
By the way, the photo with myself and
the General’s wife and daughter I took
at the fringes of that reception party
as it does look good as it makes the
rounds as people share it as their
supporting evidence of this statement.
Thanks for sharing!!! ( I am not ashamed
to have had the opportunity of meeting
the General’s wife and daughter. If
anything it strengthened my resolve
never to base my judgement of any
Nigerian based on propaganda, lies and
bigotry as my conversation with both
women increased my resolve that
irrespective where we come from in
Nigeria we are bounded by a common
humanity.
- Re. “We are still investigating how
much APC paid their camera lady (Rose
Graham)”
The last time I checked my bank
account and cash flow I’ve not received
any money from any political party!!
To the person who made this statement,
I take it that after a week of your so-
called investigation you are now in a
position to tell us how much I have been
paid by the APC.
I’m particularly interested to find out
from your investigation which account
this money has been paid into so that I
can start proceedings to recovery that
which you think is mine.
If to the contrary you had no intention
of doing such an investigation, and made
such a statement as a passing remark to
distract attention from discussing the
main issues on ground, I say shame on
you!!! Our country has have enough of
such tactics so yes, shame on you!!!
- Re. “Was Hired and Paid By APC”
I say again to the person making a claim
like this in such an assured manner
without any substantive evidence to
back it up or an iota of truth to it,
shame on you!!!
And for the records, I have NOT been
hired NOR paid by the APC to do what I
do. I do not have any intention of
commercialising my right as a citizen of
Nigeria to make a choice and take a
stand in what is defining moment in the
history of our country, every Nigerian
owe our country the duty to choose
between the available candidates who
stand for election as guaranteed by the
constitution of the Federal Republic of
Nigeria. To the characters who think it
is a crime to choose I must say use your
internet and Google “UNIVERSAL
ADULT SUFFRAGE” it could help.
Let me bring it to the attention of
those who stood by me that for several
weeks before the Chatham house event
I had been hounded and bombarded by
and individual claiming to represent the
People’s Democratic Party (PDP) with
sinister proposals, it was a proponent of
the PDP party who had made attempts
to recruit me into their social media
campaign for GEJ an offer which I
turned down and my position made clear
as is evidenced in the following extract
from a Facebook messaging exchange I
had with a PDP campaign representative
between 4th and 5th Jan ‘15:
=====
PDP Rep (real name withheld):
04/01/2015 20:23
“Please Let's Join Hands And PUSH As
Much Information As We Can On The
Positives Of GEJ Into The Media Space
By Deploying Your FB And Twitter
Handles.
Please Use
#SUSTAININGTheGAINS...
#GEJ2015...
#GONIGERIA.
Thanks.
I need a budget from you. I also need a
strategy doc for your deployment of
Online Media for the GEJ presidential
campaign”
Me:
04/01/2015 22:46
“With all due respect sir, I'm not on
the lookout for a budget. My
contribution is purely out of a deep
seated interest for our dear country.
My online media presence strategy is
basically to inform, educate and liaise
with friends and contacts on pertinent
issues relating to Nigeria in an engaging
manner as I can.”
PDP Rep:
05/01/2015 06:09
“WoW...OK. Thanks for The FeedBack.
Appreciate Same. Will Send You Loads
Of Stuff On The Achievements Of The
GEJ Government.
Also Please Deploy the Hashtag I Sent
To You Yesterday. We need it to go
VIRILE.”
NB: For the records, although my
political convictions are very much more
aligned with those of APC, It did not
stop me from posting appropriate PDP
media campaign information on my social
media platform, neither did it stop me
from inviting Peopled Democratic Party
representatives to the PolitrickswithKO
programme on BEN-TV.
Now that I’ve cleared the air on these
matters, it would be greatly appreciated
if we could draw a line under this
discussion and focus on the far more
important issues that are affecting us
Nigerians.
We have an election due by the end of
this month to prepare for as we look
forward to electing to office the right
people we believe have the best
interest at heart for us, best placed to
govern the nation and improve the
standard of living for the benefit of all
Nigerians.
May I also take this opportunity to
extend my sincere gratitude to all those
who have been supportive of me whilst
going through the ordeals of the past
week. Your kind words and actions have
been very encouraging and much
appreciated. I am truly blessed to have
an understanding husband who is
supportive of my chosen path and
appreciates the intricacies of getting
involved in the fight to restore the
dignity of Nigerians from the shackles
of forces of darkness.
May God bless us all regardless of our
beliefs and persuasions political or
otherwise and May God Bless the federal republic of nigeria. H

Gbawe:
They are indeed 'punking' GEJ . It is the overwhelming loss in the SW the PDP foresaw that made them to postpone the election. This is the one region they think can save GEJ and this is why Jonathan, after the election postponement, has virtually relocated to Lagos to begin a 'dollar rain' on everyone in the SW he thinks can help him buy votes.

Only fools will take these insincere endorsement seriously. SW folks, in the majority, want change from the GEJ-led status quo. It is as simple as that and anyone deceiving GEJ about 'endorsement' is just 'chopping' his own share of the dollars our desperate President is sharing freely.

Your the biggest fool ever known in this world

Apc groups

That one concern una there...

Apc members are corrupt more than anybody in politics

Will be appreciated

Everybody likes transformation

Don't know how much janjanweeds are paid for hating

DRANOEL:
Firstly, this is my opinion which was built on interactions, the tempo of the people and the general feeling in the State.

All lot of permutations are being made with most(if not all) showing Benue as a sure state for Goodluck to win convincingly, this permutations are made on the premise that Gabriel Suswam will pull his weight as the sitting governor added to the force of David Mark. Also, some believe that Benue being the only Northern State with a 98% Christian majority and with their experience with the Fulani herdsmen, a vote for a Fulani man talkless a muslim will be a no no for them. All these are far from the reality on ground, the Benue electorate (both in town & grassroots) in this coming elections are perhaps the most politically conscious electorates in the country right now, from the farmer in the thick village to the fisherman in the riverine areas to the white collar jobber in the towns, the political discussions are centred on voting individuals and not party and considerations are placed on antecedents, baggage, goodwill and sense of injustice. The principal supporters of the president in Benue (Suswam, Mark, Ayu, Morro) are actually the principal reasons the president will not be getting a slice of Benue. Suswam is considered by almost all in Benue as the dark spot of the state, in eight years apart from raising the financial status of various girlfriends, putting money in the hands of thugs and cultist, the governor has really not done anything in the State. This is evidenced in the fact that during the President's visit, He had to commission a renovated primary school as the achievement of the governor. Suswam is basically hated by the Benue electorate, so much that the PDP governoship candidate in the state despite being a young man with the potential to move the state forward, has a herculean task to climb because of his association with Suswam, whenever he goes campaigning and tells the electorates to vote for him so as to continue the good works Suswam started, the people ask; what continuity,? the continual owing of civil servants salary (now 5 months), the continual looting of state funds, the continual nonchalant attitude towards the Fulani invaders, the continual funding of babes, or the continual elevation of thugs? To paint a better picture of how Suswam is a liability, Barnabas Gemade a hitherto selfish and unliked politician in the state is now praised to high heavens, simply because he is battling Suswam for the senate sit, Suswam winning Gemade is day by day becoming an impossible task talkless of him garnering votes in his senatorial zone for Jonathan, in fact Suswam is rumoured to have lamented to some close aides about the President's inefficiency in handling INEC and making Jega to fall in line, He is rumoured to have said his and others election is now a tight rope, something that would have been a walk over if only the President had hoodwinked Inec from the get go.

David Mark, though his senate sit is more or less guaranteed, the same cannot be said about his zone's support for Jonathan and/or the governorship candidate. David Mark will be riding on the back of the fact that he paid off every reasonable challenge against him and is smart enough to understand that the general feeling of his people towards Jonathan is low, He has infact through his own campaigns (not the presidential or governorship rallies) managed to sub consciously pass the message across that he is only asking for his senate sit and it shouldn't be confused or mixed up with any other election. Ayu and Morro are political liabilities in Benue, the surest way to lose an election in the state is having them on your train.

Added to all this is Goodluck himself who despite the huge support he got from the state, has managed not to do anything in the state for the past 4years. In addition, the Tivs who have a 70+% majority in the state have been politically side-lined in the national level. Besides, the general feeling in the state is that of a President who has no idea what his job functionality is, mention the name Goodluck in the villages and you will be lucky if you are not vulgarly insulted. Posters of Jonathan are only displayed in a few towns as he is tied with Suswam as one and the same person. It is even said that if Goodluck rigs Benue the best he can get is 30% of the votes, the situation you have in Benue according to the people is a useless Suswam teamed up with an unpopular President and supported by Ayu/Morro who have lost every respect of people against a Buhari who is seen as someone different from the usual, supported by Akume who has a cult following and Ortom, who even though has issues with how he became APC governorship candidate, has lots of respect in the state for giving back to the people by propping up small industries across the state.

Anyone who says Goodluck will win Benue is only living a day dream, for the indigenes of Benue, Goodluck will definitely lose Benue; the question is, how bad will he lose? Discussions are not on whether he will lose or not, discussions are on the extent of his losing.

Ahead of the March general election, youth leaders of the All Progressives Congress (APC) held a strategy meeting on Thursday in Abuja with a vow to resist any act of interference in the electoral process, including an alleged move to oust the Chairman of the .independent National Electoral Commission, Prof. Attahiru Jega.
Speaking at the meeting attended by the zonal and state APC youth leaders, the Zonal Youth leader for North West, Mr. Shehu Marshal the country has witnessed a lot of political maneuverings by the Peoples Democratic Party in recent times aimed at interfering with the electoral process.
He threatened that APC youths groups will not hesitate to occupy Aso Rock and other major cities in the country if election is not held on March 28.-
"Our position is that the march 28 and April 11 election dates are sacrosanct otherwise we will occupy Aso Rock and other major cities in Nigeria.
While addressing the youth leaders, the party's National Youth Leader, Mr. Ibrahim Jalo, said the fact that the party as a law abiding entity had accepted the shifting the election date does not mean that it would tolerate Ny further postponement of the polls.
"We want to tell them that we have accepted it has our leaders have accepted but election will be held on the 28 of March and that 28 remain sacrosanct because we will not tolerate any other shift in election dates.
"As law abiding citizens we have accepted it but if it come to a point that the government and INEC does not want to conduct election we will definitely have to take the necessary steps legally possible," he said.
Reacting to the reports that INEC chairman, Prof. Jega may be removed before the election, the youth leader said though his party does not have any business with who is INEC chairman, but that since Jega is doing a good job, he should be allow to continue his good job.
" If they remove him that will take us back and everything has to start afresh from the beginning, even though they have no reason whatsoever to do that."

*. ‎ INEC says not aware of the court directives
Chuks Okocha in Abuja
Agitations to shift the general elections heightened on Thursday, as one of the political parties, Young Democratic Party (YDP) said that Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) should either accommodate the party in the forthcoming general elections or reschedule them.
A Federal High Court sitting in Abuja had on Wednesday ordered INEC to issue a certificate and include YDP in the general elections.
But the INEC Director of Voter ‎Education, Osaze Uzzi, and the Chief Press Secretary to the INEC Chairman, Kayode Idowu, declined to comment, stating that apart from what they read from the newspapers, the processes of the court documents are yet to be served to commission.
A national commissioner of INEC who does not want to be quoted said, "We are yet to be served, but mind you, INEC has the right of appeal. We wait until the court processes are served on the commission. Also note that the commission has reached an advanced stage of the preparations for election. The worst case scenario is that the commission will seek for a stay of execution and subsequently appeal the order of the Federal High Court."
Addressing journalists in Abuja on Thursday shortly after its National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting, the National Publicity Secretary of the party, Barr. Ugo Nwofor described the judgment as victory for democracy, rule of law and triumph over impunity.
Nwofor said that they were ready for 2015 elections, but gave INEC two options, which include the re-printing of its ballot papers to include YDP, so as to accommodate its candidates.
The second option, Barr. Nwofor, said if INEC does not have the appropriate logistics for reprinting of its ballot papers then INEC ought to within the constitutional provision further re-schedule the general elections so as to accommodate our party.”
