Mxm, So if he sees the truth we keep quiet? Where the f*uck is the democracy then?

And what is the truth here? If you have no problem when GEJ travelled to Jerusalem with many Nigerian Pastors, why should you have problem with Buhari?

As the plans for its golden jubilee takes shape, the Lagos State government has revealed plans to feature the indivisibility of the state as an entity, its preeminence as a unique Yoruba speaking State, as well as, its rich cultural heritage during the event.

The State Commissioner for Information and Strategy, Mr. Steve Ayorinde, made this known on Monday while receiving the newly elected executives of the Yoruba Broadcasters Association of Nigeria.

The Commissioner disclosed that the Governor had already constituted the committee for the celebration with Professor Wole Soyinka and Mr. Rasheed Gbadamosi as co-chairmen, adding that the cooperation and the buy-in of the broadcasters would go a long way in the overall success of the event.

Ayorinde, who received the delegates on behalf of the State Governor, Mr. Akinwunmi Ambode, further said that the State Government is doing all within its power to ensure that the indigenous language of the State did not go into extinction.

He commended the indigenous enlightenment roles played by the broadcasters in internalizing the value system and culture of the Yoruba race especially for their support towards the emergence of the present administration in the State.

He said that the roles of the broadcasters is in line with the direction of the State Government in ensuring that the Yoruba language is not threatened in any way or relegated to the background.

“You are all aware that Lagos State has now been enrolled as a member of the Oodua States, this will help promote and preserve the cultural heritage of the indivisibility of the Yoruba speaking states in the South West region of the country.

“The State also started the monthly publication of Alausa Alert newspaper in Yoruba language when Governor Ambode became the Governor. These and several other laudable moves of the present administration show the Governor as an indigenous and a community-based leader.” The Commissioner explained.

Responding to the submission made earlier by the leader of the delegation, the National President, Mr. Funsho Ademigbuji, the Commissioner promised to present their requests to the Governor and expressed the belief that it would receive favourable consideration.

Ademigbuji had earlier commended the present administration for its laudable programmes within a short period in Office.

According to him, the association’s main focus is to protect the culture and values of the Yoruba race from going into extinction, explaining that by broadcasting in native language, they have further widened the reach of government information as they are more received at the grassroots where majority of the people reside.

He solicited the financial support of the State Government towards the swearing-in of the newly elected executive of the association, while also offering a word of prayer for the wife of the Governor, Mrs. Bolanle Ambode, whose birthday was being marked on Monday.

Thank God someone is recognizing Brymo. The guy is the most underrated artist in Nigeria.

Op na lia moha............ where is the video. Video or .................

You can also help by providing the video where called Nigerians criminal.

Nigeria's president Muhammadu Buhari gave an exclusive interview to the Daily Telegraph last week. Here is the full record of his remarks.

Are you willing to talk to Boko Haram about the missing Chibok schoolgirls?

"As long as we can establish the bona fides of the leadership of Boko Haram, we are prepared as a government to discuss with them how to get the girls back. But we have not established any evidence of a credible leadership."

Is Abubakr Shekau still the leader of Boko Haram?

"I receive conflicting information about the status of Shekau. Some say he has been removed and replaced by a less charismatic terrorist leader.

"I think he must be on the run, because out of the 14 local government districts that Boko Haram used to call their caliphate, they now do not control any now. They are scattered around the Sambisa forest and they have resorted to attacking soft targets, people in churches, mosques and market places, and using improvised explosive devices."

Are you seeking any further help from the West in the fight against Boko Haram?

"I was invited by the G7 during my visit to Europe to brief them on the issue of security Boko Haram, and I did so. I subsequently sent Nigeria's 'shopping list' in terms of the infrastructure destroyed. That is schools, medical facilities and other institutions, bridges blown up, and the estimates of repair."

Did you also ask for Western military help?

"Yes, I did, but I don't want to give any details of that in public at present. As you know, we already have foreign military help in terms of training missions."

And are you asking for additional military help beyond training missions?

"I am not asking for any of that yet. I want to be briefed first on the situation from the Nigerian military and also the police."

The previous government used mercenaries from South Africa in the fight against Boko Haram, with some success. Would you consider doing the same?

"I personally was very disappointed that the previous government resorted to mercenaries. I was also disappointed by the recent revelations of how military allocations were also misappropriated. How is it that Nigeria's military, which has a good record across west Africa, cannot claim back to 14 out of 774 local governorates from Boko Haram? They have to ask for mercenaries from South Africa? How the mighty has fallen!"

What is your feeling on the wider terror threats across west and north Africa at the moment, with terrorism attacks taking place in Mali and Burkina Faso?

"I think we should be very worried because with technology, Boko Haram and other terrorists have become very mobile in all continents, not only in Africa but also in Europe, America and Asia.

"For Africa and the Sahel, the demise of Gaddafi's regime led to a lot of armed and trained people, especially those from the Sahel, being dispersed. Fighting is the only thing they know, and they are available at a fee. The danger is there, and I am pleased that Europe has realised it too."

There have been reports that Nigerians have been fighting for Isil in the Libyan city of Sirte. Is that true?

"I haven't seen confirmed reports about that, but I know that it is not only in Sirte - there are also Nigerians finding their way to Syria too. I don't know which side, but they may be fighing for Isil. How many, I have no idea."

Have you ever had reports of people from the Nigerian diaspora in the UK being involved in Boko Haram in any way?

"No, but if I do, I will immediately raise the issue."

A number of Nigerians use the migrant routes to come to the UK to claim asylum, saying their lives are at risk from Boko Haram. Is is legitimate for them to do so?

"Some Nigerians claim is that life is too difficult back home, but then again some Nigerians have also made it difficult for Europeans and Americans to accept them because of the number of Nigerians in different prisons all over the world accused of drug trafficking or human trafficking. I don't think Nigerians have anybody to blame. They can remain at home. Their services are required to rebuild the country. If their countrymen misbehaved, the best thing for them is to stay at home and encourage the credibility of the nation."

Do you think that Nigerians have an image problem abroad?

"Certainly. But we are on our way to salvage that. We will encourage our countrymen to stay at home, work hard and make a respectable living at home."

Your government has launched a major corruption probe over claims that billions of dollars of oil cash went missing during the previous administration. Some suspects have been arrested in the UK. Are you satisfied with the co-operation you are getting from the UK authorities?

"One of the biggest suspects is in Britain now, although I am not going to name that person. But Britain has earned our respect in the way it deals with these matters. Our only problem is that it seems to be too thorough and it takes too much time. If there are obvious cases, like bank accounts, infrastructure houses and hotels, I would hope they could do it quicker, so that we can claim these things back promptly."

Note: this is an extended version of an interview that first ran in the Daily Telegraph on Friday February 5th.

BADNEAT:
who is your senator??Do you know him??Ben just became a Senator and has been connecting to Nigerians in an unprecedented way...find your Senator bro n run your mouth on him...!!

People voted for him in order to contribute at the level of the red chamber not on twitter. How many bills has your twitter senator sponsored? How many motion has he raised? How logical are his arguments in the chambers? What has he done with the constituency allowances given to him? These are the yardstick to know a performing senator, not by reducing yourself to an e-rat!

Someone just became a common sense man after PDP lost power to APC. Where was his common sense when PDP ruled recklessly for 16 years?

bizgenius1:
u cant compare both of them sir,ooni is a first class king

I'm not comparing their status, I'm only commenting on their mode of dressing.

joystickextend1:
I can see the King's shoe is matching his staff.. .hmm...so nice...our new ooni oba.ogunwusi is undoubtedly the youngest classy king in Nigeria

Have u seen Oba Elegushi before?

Great analysis.

NPFL kicks off by February 25. As for me and my family, it's Shooting Stars all the way. Which team are you rooting for?

Trailblazer1:


What an epic response from the leader of Common Sense Revolution!

Omojuwa just over-prized himself by thinking his attention matters to Bruce.

Bruce is not the type of politician that you can bamboozle with the media cos he's the KING OF THE MEDIA

Omojuwa used to have Common Sense, but have now short-changed it for Aisha's rice

What a pity !

But where was Ben Bruce's common sense when PDP ruled recklessly for 16 years? So just because PDP lost to APC, he became a common sense man. Okay o

King Gucci!

Hundreds of students of Obafemi
Awolowo University on Friday asked
President Muhammadu Buhari
administration to probe the activities of
the Vice Chancellor of the university, Prof.
Bamitale Omole.


The students passed the message to the
President through the Minister of
Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai
Mohammed, who was at the university.
They also bombarded the minister with
requests that the Federal Government
should ensure decent hostels for students
on the campus.


The minister was at OAU to deliver the
distinguished guest lecture, titled ‘Nexus
between corruption and
underdevelopment of Nigeria’ at the
University’s Faculty of Arts.
The students had staged series of protest
against poor condition of their hostels
which led to the closure of the school by
the management late last year.
“Our halls of residence are in bad shape
and my colleagues are saying probe
Omole (VC) and so on,” said one of the
students allowed to ask the minister a
question.
“It is not only at the national level that the
government should concentrate its fight
against corruption, it should come to
universities and we welcome President
Buhari’s war against corruption on OAU
campus.”
The entire students present applauded
the students, while the minister promised
to meet with the VC to discuss the issue of
students’ union leaders under suspension.
The minister urged Nigerians to support
the government in the fight, saying
corruption had already started fighting
back.

I hope 3SC gets a better replacement for Gbenga Ogunbote. Beside, they have to replace the midfield maestros Kelly Kester and Tope Orelope who have left for Enyimba if they have to fight for silverwares. Up shooting! Up Stars!

TonyeBarcanista:
So who will succeed the late Olubadan?

The current Balogun which is Chief Adetunji.

Governor Ajimobi is on point. We only have two lines to Olubadan- the Balogun line and the Otun line. The Seriki line of a thing is alien to our tradition in Ibadan land. Long live Oba Adetunji.

I know some idiots will come here to support that same Uwazurike that is sacamming them.

Lalasticlala!

The same Osoba whose party worked against the candidate of the Progressives is here calling himself a progressive again. I actually have problem with the way Nigerian politicians define political ideology.

Metuh, OYO is your case o

Nigerian presidential elections has come
and gone. But there are lessons to be
learned, especially from our supposed
“Men of God” who claimed that God
himself revealed the outcome to them
before the election. I want to remind you
of what they said. Change has indeed
come (hopefully), and we must hold both
our political and religious leaders
accountable for every word they speak.
Please read carefully and draw your own
conclusion.


The Bible said, “Thou shall not take the
name of your God in vain.” What are
these men thinking now? Are these
revelations really from God? Could He
possibly be sending them contradictory
messages? I know there are already
explanations for all the false prophecies.
But at this point, I must leave you to
judge for yourselves.



1. Apostle Fredrick, Senior Pastor of
Wonder City Chapel and President of the
BB Frederick Ministries, Ghana


“Nigerians should watch out for the
second term of His Excellency President
Goodluck Ebele Jonathan. Although it
looks very challenging with him and his
ruling party now, yet the Lord says
Nigerians shouldn’t lose hope in
Jonathan.”


“As long as I’m concerned as a man gifted
by God to see the past, the current and
the future beyond the curtains of the
natural, I know by the inspiration of the
Almighty that President Jonathan is the
set man for Nigeria. His next term on the
seat will bring liberation to Nigeria.”
“It will bring hope to hopeless situations
in Nigeria. On this account I therefore
declare that HE Goodluck Ebele Jonathan
will win the coming elections.”



2. Pastor Matthew Ashimolowo, Senior
Pastor of Kingsway International
Christian Centre (KICC)


“For Nigeria, the Lord showed me, who
will win the election. I will not mention his
name, because I have to be politically
neutral. But when the president’s name is
announced, 20 percent of a certain part
of the nation will not agree. Eventually,
after negotiation they will. We will agree
that we’re one.”


“Wales is only 400,000 people or about a
million people. They call them a nation,
and they call Yorubas who are 27 million
a tribe, the Igbo who are 18 million you
call them a tribe. For us to have many
nations that make up Nigeria, it was God
that made it happen. And that prophetic
mandate still remains on Nigeria. Anyone
who incites people to divide this nation
will lose his chance. Nigeria will remain
one. After all the noise, you will be
amazed that also some politicians will be
shocked, nobody will be ready to die for
them. There will be peace in Nigeria after
the election. I see a man who will one day
rise, but I don’t know when, I don’t think
it’s up to 10 years though . He will turn
the fortunes of Nigeria round. Nigeria will
look like one of these advancing nations
like United Arab Emirates , India, and
China. That is how Nigeria will be.”




3. Prophet Joshua Iginla


“No matter how powerful or well-
organized 2015 election is, it will be
faulted. I am not a politician nor belong
to any political party, I am just speaking
God’s mind. The person sitting on the
seat might not be perfect, but he will
retain the seat. It’s not guess-work.
However, it will be a battle between the
lion and the tiger…Shortly after the
election, especially on the night of the
election, there will be great vandalisation.
I see cars being burnt, lives killed.”


“President Jonathan will win, but he has
to pray about his health and so many
political blows. I pray the two people who
enter the Aso Villa will leave together.
That’s why we should pray for the woman
beside the president. The president and
wife should pray that the first lady would
finish the tenure together and not losing
one before the end of their tenure.”



4. Apostle Johnson Suleiman
“I see president Goodluck Jonathan
coming back but trouble… Patience
Jonathan needs serious prayers.”
