I Opened My Wife's Bag In Search Of My Wristwatch, See What I Saw After 8 Years In Marriage. I have been living a righteous and faithful life before I got married, now that I am married, the whole story changed. At first I trusted my wife so much that made me believe every single thing she says, not knowing she is another thing entirely. I was at home this faithful day, I got a call from my customer that I should come for the money he promised to give me, I quickly went to the bathroom, took a shower, put on a shirt, then I can't find my wristwatch, during this period, my wife was not at home, I was confused totally, I couldn't think straight, I had to carry my wife's bag closer to see if I can find her wristwatch. While I was searching her bag, I saw a small nylon, I opened it and found an inhaler, I was shocked and I thought maybe it's not for her, not until I found an hospital report in an envelope, my wife's full name was written on this letter, and the doctor reported that she shouldn't miss any of her drug, advised her to do away from taking cold drinks and to keep the inhaler close to herself anywhere she go. I started thinking, I began to ask myself various questions; is my wife an asthmatic patient? , how could she hide such secret from me after 8 years in marriage, or am I dreaming? Readers, I need your advice and opinion, is that kind of woman a good house wife? Can I trust her even with my life, please do not hesitate to advice me, thank you for reading.

I Paid a Surprise Visit to My Daughter in School, But What I saw In Her Room Broke Me We just moved down from River State to Lagos because my husband was transferred over to Lagos by his Boss to handle the branch in Lagos State. My husband said he would love to go with us because we were living in a rented apartment in River state, and he also wanted us to have a taste of the life in Lagos. However, I also wanted to protect my children from other children that could corrupt them in Lagos. We sent them to a private school in Lagos and also ensured that we kept watch of the type of friends they kept. I had two children, a boy and a girl. The girl was the oldest, and she was just 14 when we moved to Lagos. She was one of the most intelligent students in her class, and she always won a lot of prices in school, I was so proud of her. My son on the other hand was struggling to have good grades, but I believed he was going to get better with his books because he was still very young. 3 years later my family had already acclimatized to the life in Lagos, and my daughter just gained admission to one of the most prestigious institutions in Lagos. I trusted her so much and was so sure that she was going to come out with distinctions from the University. Coupled with the fact that she was cool headed and religious, I believed I had nothing to fear. She left for school and we kept in touch through calls and messages. We also chatted online from time to time, and I was aware about everything that was happening there in her school because I was her mother. Then she stopped replying my messages early, and always said she would call me back anytime I called. The only time she calls is when she needed money to buy some things in school. I talked to her about it and she said it was because she was so occupied with school activities. This went on for some months and I knew she was stressing herself out. So, I and my husband bought a lot of food stuffs and beverages for her. I wanted to inform her about our impending visit, but my husband told me to make our visit a surprise, so I agreed. We left on Sunday after church by 3pm because the journey to her school wasn’t up to 2 hours and that is if there would be hold up. We got there late because of the hold up. We moved straight to the hostel where she stayed and walked down to her room. When we got to the front of her door, we saw lots of girls’ slippers at the front of the room, but we didn’t think much of it because she had roommates. We pushed the door and what we saw shocked us. Our 17-year-old daughter was in bed with another girl both unclad, I was dumbfounded, I couldn’t believe my eyes. I fell down and started crying uncontrollably and my husband just stood there in shock, I thought to myself “How did this happen, what got into our daughter, she was very calm and religious, why then did she do this”. My daughter just looked at me and said she loved her girlfriend so much and didn’t care about what anyone thinks. My husband asked about the other girls in the room and she said they left so that she could have an alone time with her girlfriend, I was broken. How did something like this happen in a school’s hostel with the knowledge of the other girls in the room, I was so confused.

Being a Research Paper Presented at the Academic Elite of Ebiraland online Conference Lecture on this day of 21st June, 2020. PREAMBLE History is the available information about the past to guide us in the conduct of the affairs of the present and assist us in restructuring the future. History, however, does not lie but humans lie in giving account of their own history (Khalid Yasin, 2005). In the same vein, Nelson Mandela opined that a man without the sense of history is like a man without eyes and ears. MIGRATION AND SETTLEMENT We urge the readers of this article to digest this with an open mind as students of historical facts.To this ends, putting sentiment aside, both oral tradition and written records collaborated one another that the ancestors of Ebiras around Niger-Benue confluence hailed from the Ancient Jukun Kwararafa kingdom. The Ebira people had their origin from Yemen and settled first at Wukari at the Kwararafa Kingdom of the present day Jukun community in Taraba state, Nigeria. The Ebira community left Jukun around 1700 to Idah part of the present Kogi state. However, When they came first to Idah, they met the Igala kingdom already established with Kinship structure, with the reign of the Atta of Igala (Ogido,2004). The Igalas too had earlier before the Ebiras migrated from Jukun to settle in their present axis of kogi state before the advent of Ebiras. Atta in Igala language means ‘father’, of which It was the name given to the old Atta king of the Igala kingdom. However, the Ebiras also borrowed the title ‘Atta’ from the Igala people after a century that the Igalas had been using it. images 5 3 Ajaokuta Steel Company When the Ebiras migrated from the Idah Kingdom of Igala land, after a political conflict between Igalas and the Ebiras in 1750, the Ebiras move to Itobe part of the River Benue, a six Kilometre walk to the present day Ajaokuta. History to salihu Ogido in his book “Leadership and Crisis in Ebiraland” shows that there have been part of the Igalas that settled around the Ajaokuta/Itobe river rine. This few Igalas who had also settled around this area are fishermen of which they sell fish to the Ebiras and other neighbouring settlers and tribes. However, the Igalas named the fish market after the nearby as AJAOKUTA. ‘AJA’ in Igala language means market while OKUTA means stone. By the sensible literal interpretation of the derived word, Ajaokuta, it means a market near stone. At this point, the Ebiras were hunters and Warriors (Ogido:2004:6-7). Ogido was however of the opinion that the Ebiras were the first to settle at Itobe/Ajaokuta (ette ube) under the leadership of the then Atta of Igala land. To this ends, contrary to the false claim of Ebiras that Aja-Ekuda was the meaning that the Ebiras had then given to the present Ajaokuta could not hold a stand. To Ahmadu:1974, when the Ebiras moved from Idah to Itobe, the Ebiras were one people then, but on getting to Itobe (ette ube), Some of the Ebiras drew a dichotomy and disagree to follow the present Ebira Opete to cross the river for settlement in the present day Ebira Opete. The division occurred that the present Ebira toto of Nasarawa state moved from Itobe for the first time to settle in Nasarawa state. The Ebira Umaisha also disagree to follow Ebira Opete to cross the river for settle and move also to Nasarawa state.The Ebira Abaji also moved from here to FCT, Abuja for the same reason. The Ebira igara (Etuno) agreed to cross the River for settlement with Ebira Opete but later after crossing the river with the present day Ebira Opete, they further moved for settlement in Etuno of the present Edo state. Ebira MOZUM, Ebira Igu (Koton Karfe) and Ebira Opete are found in the present Kogi state (Ahmadu cited in Ogido: 2004). ADAYI EBIRA The available fact about Adayi Ebira is that ‘Ebira’ as we know today is the name of our first father Adayi Ebira who first migrated from Jukun as part of the minority group then in the Wukari of the Kwararafa kingdom in the present Jukun of Taraba State. He then moved to the present Ebiraland and got married to Onyi -Ayi- Ebira. Adayi Ebira has five children of which the first was Adavi, followed by Eganyi, followed by Okehi, Followed by Okengwe and Ihima as the last child of Ebira. However, Onyi-Ayi Ebira the wife to Adayi Ebira later lived with her last born and died in Ihima where she was also buried. The husband Adayi-Ebira also died and buried at Eganyi part of Ebiraland. However, before his death, he has also lived and settled in Etuno part of Edo state (Otaru A, 1984). THE OWNERSHIP OF AJAOKUTA AND LOKOJA LAND AND THE AVAILABLE EVIDENCE. There is an established fact that the issue of Ajaokuta land ownership has never been properly addressed and allocated in count before the last case of June 2020 between the Atta Igala land and the Federal Government over the land ownership. Part of the major evidence presented in the court by the Atta of Igala land was that; “The Igalas were the oldest people first found in the present kogi map, they have been in the territory before Ebiras migrated from Jukun to their present location. However, in 1841, the Atta of Igala lease the Ajaokuta land to the British Colonialists for their administration and the British paid to them the prize of cowries and promised to renew after a contractual term. Unfortunately in 1931 i.e after 90years, the British need to renew the land but they didn’t and left. For so long, they had allowed Ebiras to also expand in the land and now they have come to take what etymologically belong to them” (Atta of Igala in FHC, June 2020). From the above, the FG couldn’t produce a sufficient document to counter or contradict this claim by the Atta of Igala and the court however had to judge over such claim. WHAT EVIDENCE DO EBIRAS HOLD IN REGARDS TO THIS It is imperative to know that the controversy perhaps over the ownership of Ajaokuta land today was grieved by the colonial masters and the recent re-establishment by the FG for the commencement of the Steel Company. The British officials while leaving and evacuating the land after 1931 handed the land documents and the contractual documents to the Atta of Ebiraland Alhaji Ibrahim Onoru-Oiza as perhaps the owner of the land.This was done by the British colonialist perhaps as a result of the fact that the Ebiras dominated the land as at then and that the Ebiras have been able to establish the Unification King which was the Ohinoyi Ibrahim Onoru-oiza. This documents however were handed over and over from one generation of Ohinoyi to the present Alhaji Ado Ibrahim (The Ohinoyi of Ebiraland). From the tradition of the British colonialists, then, whoever they allocated land to or gave land document autormatically Inherits the land (Salami S, 2008). In 1946, When Arthur Richard became the Governor general of Nigeria, he splitted Nigeria into three regions of North, East and West. At this period, Okene Local government and Ajaokuta were part of the North While the present Kogi East which is the Igala axis belong to the Eastern Nigeria (Eluwa and etal, 1987). From the analogy of Eluwa and etal, If the Igalas are claiming the Ajaokuta from historical perspectives, then the Fulanis can as well claim the Whole Nigeria as they were the first set of people who migrated to this part of the World. Although, the claim of the Atta of Igala may be very correct to have leased the land to the British colonialists in 1841 from historical record and perspective but the fact is that, that historical records of Igala community can’t cancel the Richard constitution of 1946 that allocated Ajaokuta and Okene axis then to the Northern part of Nigeria neither can the Igala historical records of land ownership cancel the 1976 Local Government Reform by General Olusegun Obasanjo that created Okene/Ajaokuta Local government as one in 1976. Conversely, there is a notion which states that the first people to have settled in a land or an area owns the land or the area but this should not negate the government rules and land policy which also states that all land belongs to the government and it is the same government that has made Ajaokuta/Okene as part of kogi Central and not Kogi East in 1976. Does it mean the government was wrong during this declaration? If the government now admit that they were wrong to have considered Ajaokuta as part of Kogi Central, then government of Nigeria are the most confused government in the World as they will need to go back to reform and restructure the 1976 local government reform again but certainly the government won’t do such because it will generate more land disputes in the country. Still from the legal perspective, it may be opined that the controversy over the ownership of the land of Ajaokuta arose as a result of the natural resources found there which is the Iron and steel company which is about to commence functioning properly. The Legal Maxim “Quic quid Plantatur Solo Solo Cedit” Which means “What ever is affixed to the land belongs to the people of that land”. As in natural resources and others, hence the claim of the/a land arose (Malcolm B,1970). For those that believe as an evidence that the River has separated or divided the Igalas and the Ebiras is unscientific. The Water cannot be used by the Ebiras at all as an evidence that the Ajaokuta land belongs to the Ebiras. The reason why this cannot hold a stand is that it is unconstitutional and illogical. It is not clearly stated from historical perspective that a community cannot cross over a water to own a land. For instance, the Ebira Toto of Nasarawa state has in history cross over to Nasarawa from Ebira Opete and Itobe to own a land in the present Nasarawa state. The Ebira Toto are now indigenious people of Nasarawa and do enjoy all the rights as citizen over there (Isiaq A, 2008). For those that also believe that the Igalas were under the Benue before the creation of Kogi state, While Ajaokuta and Okene were under Kwara state and why then would they claim the ownership of the land. This also is not a substantial evidence because the Igalas were still based and lived in their present location of Idah, Itobe, Anyigba and part of Ajaokuta even when the Igalas were in Benue. It is not that they were pushed away from Benue state and then migrated to their present location of Kogi state. They have been in their present location since around 1650. THE TERRAIN OF LOKOJA. The people of Ebira has little to say about the true ownership of Lokoja.The reason is that there is hardly an available document that explain the rightful ownership. However, the oral narration according to the Ebiras is that the Ebira land ends at the present Army Barracks in lokoja and many Ebira Statesmen and educationists agreed to this notion. That is, Adavi and Okehi land end at the Barracks except there would be a document to substantiate a contrary opinion. The Ebira Opete has no land in Koton Karfe axis of kogi state but only part of Lokoja. Therefore, The Igalas claim over the Koton Karfe land and large portion of Lokoja may be less substantiated by the Ebira Opete if the Ebira Opete too wants to claim the rightful ownership except as the case may be. CONCLUSION History has shown that the Igalas and the Ebiras have maintained a cordial and peaceful relationship and coexistence since from the Jukun in the present Taraba state before they both migrated to their present location. This peaceful coexistence for a long time made the Ebiras specifically Ozumi of the Ogu clan to borrow the masquerade called “Ibagi” from the Igala kingdom. In fact, all masquerades today in Ebiraland were copied from the Igala kingdom. The Atta as rightly used today in Ebiraland was also copied from the Igala Kingdom. The Ebiras occupation then were mainly Hunting warriors and weaving while the Igalas were fishermen and business men. The Ebiras first name Itobe area as ‘ette ube’ which means land of hunters while the Igalas name Ajaokuta from their words ‘Aja’ which means market and ‘okuta’ which also means stone. The Igalas have the Itobe named by the Ebiras and the Ebiras have the Ajaokuta named by the Igalas, what a natural irony or irony of adventure. Even the Atta Omadivi as claimed by the Ogu clan of Ebira people was also copied as history has shown us that Atta has no meaning in Ebira but has meaning in Igala which means “Father”. The fact that d Igalas have perhaps first lived and settled in this part of the country is not enough as a substantial evidence to claim the ownership of Ajaokuta but rather the evidence above from the government of Richard constitution of 1946, the Local Government Reform of 1976 and Legal perspective as well as the British reasons for probably handing over the contractual documents to the Ebiras after 1931 would stand the test of time.

Many people are oblivious to the fact that Igalas can be found outside Kogi State. Several young Igalas from Kogi state think all members of their ethnic group are within the confines of the state. From my own experience, only their elders seem to know there are other Igalas outside, but not much emphasis is laid on this fact. Infact, I have recently met people who have never heard about the Igala people. Well, no thanks to our ethnic diversity in Nigeria. The Igala people can be found in Kogi, Anambra, Delta(Ebu), Enugu, and Edo states of Nigeria. Of course, the majority of Igalas are found in Kogi state and Idah in Kogi state is the ancestral home of all Igalas. I am an Igala whose hometown is located in Anambra state. This news is often greeted with incredulity. It seems like a travesty, right? “Anambrarians” are all supposed to be igbos, right? No, the truth is that some aren’t. The Igala people in Anambra state are found in Anambra West LGA, and are made up of the following villages/towns: Nzam, Igbedor, Inoma, Odekpe, Owelle, Ukwala, Onugwa, Ode, Ala and Igbokeyi. I think we Igalas in Anambra are little known largely because of our own attitude. The fault largely lies with us. We attempt to deny who we are or where we’re from. We attempt to deny our very identity. Some of us claim to be Igbo while some altogether deny being from Anambra- they claim to come from Kogi state. My parents belong to the latter group. This latter group usually bear Igala names rather than Igbo ones. Some times, they altogether dump their Igbo names and adopt new Igala ones. Others choose to transliterate their Igbo names to Igala. By doing this, they try to affirm their Igala ethnicity ( which I support and encourage BTW). But then, they go further. They say they are indigenes of Kogi state which is simply not true. What exactly they intend to achieve from this remains unclear to me. Some of these people don’t even know the name of the Kogi governor. When they need infrastructure and social amenities, they cry to the Anambra government and yet they say they’re from Kogi. Simply doesn’t make any sense. The kogi government doesn’t know them yet they foist themselves on the state. Do they expect special privileges from the kogi government? The same moribund government that has neglected true indigenes of kogi and has largely remained ineffective? Makes absolutely no sense. The former group, as I noted before, claim to be igbo. They deny being Igala. They love their Igbo names and would rather bear them. They would rather speak Igbo than Igala. These are the ones who make weak and frantic arguments to show they’re Igbo. They hide their Igala identity or simply don’t give it any thought when they say they’re Igbo. Granted, I might be overgeneralizing here. Some do this just to get favours from the Igbos whilst privately affirming their Igala ethnicity. Now, these two groups create a lot of confusion and complexity for us young folks. You see a situation where relatives or siblings are from different states of origin. One is Igbo and the other Igala. You see a person who says he’s from kogi but can’t precisely tell us where exactly in kogi he’s from. I used to be very confused during my childhood. Here, I had my parents who say I’m Igala from kogi. There, I had my relatives who say I’m Igbo from Anambra. This was a rather peculiar dilemma. Which exactly was I? Neither painted the balanced picture. Both were opposite extremes. Thankfully, a well informed cousin provided the answer to this conundrum: we were Igalas but located in Anambra state.QED. As simple as that! We Igalas in Anambra state must stop living in denial. We are not Igbo. We are not from kogi. Let us create this awareness, let people know who we are and where we’re from. We may be a minority but we don’t need to prevaricate, lie or be equivocal about it. If your parents made these mistakes, you don’t need to perpetuate the same mistake for your kids. Let’s correct this error and thus obviate this unnecessary dilemma for our children and generations yet unborn. Thank you.

Barely twenty four hours after reporting about the rape of an 11-year old boy by a gay neighbour in Lagos, another baffling report has surfaced which left me livid and broken. In the wee hours of today, I stumbld on a despicable rape report from Dr Reuben Kamah of Specialist Hospital, Bauchi. According to Dr Kamah, a man had been apprehended after allegedly molesting three young brothers aged 8, 7 and 5 years sexually in Bauchi. Dr Kamah alleged that he would drag them into his apartment before having carnal knowledge of them. He equally threatened them with death like other rapists if they try to say a word about it to anybody. This has been going on for three years. Now, the devastating part of this is that the minors have been diagnosed with HIV and Hepatitis B. The man went on to pass the viruses to these little innocent boys. This is the very height of wickedness. The suspect was trying to hightail it after being exposed but was caught by hunters around the area. If this reports were true, then, we've lost it all. How can someone comfortably abuse three minor simultaneously? How will these three young brothers cope when they grow up to realise they were being abused and infected with HIV by their neighbour? How? What about the trauma they would face, the guilt and dejection? My heart is bleeding. This is wickedness. These boys didn't deserve this. I pray the beast rots in jail. Dear parents, please, be vigilant. Rapists and abusers are lurking around. They might be that your trusted friend, neighbour, even a member of your religious organisation. Please, be vigilant, let's secure the future of our young, pliable children. |

In Africa, we believe so much in superstition, and when basic things with possible scientific solution occurs, we are too quick to read other meanings into them, without trying to figure out what we can do, and the best method to get them resolved. When issues like this occurred, there are chances that, we become panicking, but this article will be useful to solve this particular problem, that so many people, would never have prayed it happened to them. The first thing that spark in your head is, how do i start to tell people, that my manhood got trapped in a lady's vagina. Funny and strange right? We have seen videos and pictures, depicting the scenarios where male and female partners get glued together, during sex intercourse session. The first thing that comes to our mind, especially, when it is an affair that involves one of them, a married cheating spouse, is that, its an African science or juju at work, while some other people may sees it as Hollywood or Nollywood fictions, but it is a possible, real life situation. The truth is that this problem is rare, and so many people, especially the native people, do not know of a situation called penis captivus, it is a rare problem that occurred, once in a while, during sex with female partner or between two love birds. Penis captivus is not a scene that happned as a result of Juju, thunderbolt or other superstitious belief, but a rarely occurred situation, that has a very simple solution. Now, let me explain further, for us to learn. I know we must have seen one of these scenes online, which we could have thought that, it was a movie, and wondered that, if it had happened to us, how do we get it resolved. Penis captivus, is a situation where a male and a female get stuck during sexual intercourse. This is a very rare phenomenon. This has nothing to do with witchcraft, neither spells, curses, nor infidelity. What is the captivus penis? During love making, suddenly, it is noticed that, two lovers are stucked together, and this situation, immediately sends them into panicking mode. The penis is in the vagina, and it is impossible to get it out. Stucked penis, should not make you become afraid or make the onlookers to laugh, Medical students tell each other hunting stories, so are the same employees. And we can all laugh. But when it happens to you, at that moment, you don't find it especially fun. An emergency doctor shared his experience, and narrated that, a lady called him and said that, she had a stomach ache. In fact, when he arrived at the scene, she was stuck with her lover, and they were both very shy, even if they were trying to act like it was a ordinary situation. The doctor said that he had only seen such a scene twice in his entire career. Penis captivus is still relatively rare. Why does female vagina trap male organ in itself? Like I have narrated earlier, penis captivus is a very rare occurrence, that should not send anyone into panic because there is a simple solution to it, only that too many people do not know of how to resolve the situation, but when the vagina holds the penis, the muscles of the perineum, located around the vagina, contract very strong, completely involuntary. This happens not because the female want to do it , it is like an unusual reflex, but uncontrollable. Penis captivus is a situation where a female lover cannot relax muscles around her pussy during a hot sex. Let me start it further, penis captivus is situated where muscle spasms around the vagina gets the penis trapped. Now, don't panic, it is a situation that has a remedy, without you shouting, or attracting embarrassment to yourselves. Before calling a doctor, there is a gesture that can unlock the situation. So, it is good to always try before calling the firefighters or the doctor who will take a bite to relax the muscle. Being able to manage yourself in these conditions is rather reassuring. The gesture that untrapped and solve this ugly situation is called rectal touch. What is rectal touch? It is a situation where one sticks a dry and sharp finger in the woman's anus, it is about putting a finger in the woman's butt hole. Not very glamorous right? No, but it causes a relaxation reflex of the muscles of the perineum. Solution number two: The nature of every humans is that, when you are alive and mentality active, all the muscles in the body also stays awake and very active, so, since penis captivus is possible with vagina muscles contracting very strongly, another simple solution is to get the woman to swallow sleeping pills. Just like when we are awake, that all muscles become active, during sleep, they also fall weak and relaxed. Valium 10mg is enough. She dozes off immediately and all her muscles are releasing. The man can then withdraw and remove the penis easily. Now that you know how to solve the problem, educate others and let's kill the superstitious belief in Africa. |

CORRUPTION SUCCESSES AND FAILURES IN NIGERIA Corruption is a form of dishonest or unethical conduct by a person entrusted with a position of authority, often to acquire personal benefits. All over the world, the negative effects of corruption cannot be over emphasized. Many nations have strategized means of fighting corruption because of its dangerous impact to the society and the world at large. Corruption is like cancer. It has eaten deep into the fabrics of our great nation. Virtually all areas of our national economy have been affected. In Nigeria, the anti-graft legislations and enforcement agencies have always existed in one form or the other right from colonial times. But it was Obasanjo’s second coming in 1999 that ushered in the present all-out war against corruption and abuse of office. Upon assumption of office as civilian president, Obasanjo declared it was not going to be “business as usual”. Certain factors were responsible for Obasanjo’s anti-corruption posture. First was rapacious looting that characterized successive military administration culminating in Abacha’s money stashed in foreign banks. The second was the need for the country to redeem its image and extricate itself from the pariah status which corruption had earned it in the committee of nations; the third was the need to secure a measure of debt forgiveness from the Paris Club. The Fourth was the consistent ranking as one of the most corrupt countries in the world by Transparency. THE SUCCESSES OF THE FIGHT AGAINST CORRUPTION During the regime of Obasano, some laudable steps were taken to make good his threat of “no business as usual”: (i) Commenced the process of recovery of looted funds from foreign banks; (ii) Set up ad-hoc panels of inquiry to investigate and report on allegations of corrupt practices especially failed contracts (iii) Caused the ICPC and subsequently the EFCC to be established for investigation and prosecution of persons implicated in corrupt practices and economic crimes; (iv) Initiated reform of the public sector through privatization and commercialization of government business ventures; monetization of benefits of public servants, guaranteeing pensions and retirement benefits; (v) Signed international anti- corruption instruments such as the UN Conventions, the AU convention , the ECOWAS protocol ; and (vi) Ceased every opportunity to reaffirm zero tolerance for corruption and the need for ethical and values reorientation. ICPC, EFCC and the War against Corruption under Obasanjo- The first anti-corruption agency to be set up by the Obasanjo administration was the ICPC which focused on the public sector. Upon its establishment in 2000, the Commission earnestly began to exercise its powers and discharge its functions. In the aftermath of 9/11and the global war against terror the EFCC was set up to combat the threats posed by money launderers and other organised trans-border criminals operating in Nigeria. FAILURE OF CORRUPTION FIGHT IN NIGERIA The ICPCC and EFCC could not solve Nigeria’s corruption problem. That Obasanjo recorded only two high profile convictions: Mr. Tafa Balogun (IGP) and Mr. DSP Alamieyeseigha. Despite their best efforts, the perception of the public was that the agencies were overwhelmed by the problem, thus the ICPC was seen as a toothless bulldog while the EFCC was an Alsatian readily turned loose on political opponents. Three main reasons have been adduced for this apparent failure bythe agencies to deliver on the mandates and meet the highexpectations of Nigerians. The first has to do with poor funding; thesecond is slow judicial process; and the third is lack of political will resulting in selective deployment of the agencies for political ends especially towards the end of the administration when indictment by the EFCC was deployed to frustrate the political ambition of the formerVice President, Atiku Abubakar, and his associates. Also,Yar’dua vowed to continue with war against corruption but insisted that it was not going to be a “no holds barred” war as it was degenerating to under Obasanjo. Yar’dua’s zero tolerance for corruption was going to be within the context of respect for rule of law and human rights. However, it was observed that the change of approach resulted in a “slow- down” of the war. Complaints became rife that the war was losing momentum by the day. Some reasons have been put forward as accounting for the deceleration and loss of the grounds gained under the Obasanjo era: • Slow down in the prosecution of top public officials- • Harassment of former anti-corruption crusaders- • President Yar’dua’s close relations with ex-governors- • Anti-corruption campaign as non-priority Slow down in the prosecution of top public officials- There was the perception that the Yar’dua government was vacillating concluding the conclusive prosecution of top government officials already investigated under the Obasanjo administration, especially the ex-Governors and other Politically Exposed Persons (PEPs). Harassment of former anti-corruption crusaders- Another criticism is that Yar’dua deliberately set out to harass and hound Obasanjo’smain anti-corruption crusaders into exile. The cases of Malam el-Rufai and Mr. Nuhu Ribadu were cited in support of this assertion. But it must be noted that Malam el-Rufai left office as Minister of the FCT at the end of Obasanjo’s administration and was later indicted by the Senate for acts bordering on abuse of office for personal gain. The Senate conducted a public hearing in pursuant to its oversight powers in the Constitution, the EFCC picked up from there and sought to charge the el-Rufai to court but he was unavailable to face the charges then, because he was attending a course of studies abroad. It will,therefore, not be a fair to say that he was being harassed because of he was an anti-corruption crusader. In the case of Mr. Ribadu. furthermore, In the run up to the 2007 General Elections, it iwas generally believed that some of his fellow governors then facilitated his emergence as the PDP candidate and subsequent election as President, thus it was only natural that they should remain his political allies. It did not help matters that some of this people happen to be Governors already investigated by the EFCC waiting to be charged to court. There was justifiable disquiet in many circles when the namesof some of this people, especially Mr. James Ibori, did not appear on the EFCC’s list of “Ongoing High Profile Cases”. The attitude of the EFCC to the Yar’dua’s allies heightened the perception that rather than fight an all out war against corruption, the Commission was pandering to the dictates of the government in power. |

the 2016 US Nigerian Lawyers Association (NLA)
merit awards
– The ex-president will give the speech at the event
which is scheduled to hold in New York
– Tickets for the event are to be sold at a $100 for
members and $130 for non-members
Dr Goodluck Ebele Jonathan (GEJ) has been selected
to give the keynote speech of the United States
Nigerian Lawyers Association (NLA) Merit Awards
Dinner.
Dr Goodluck Ebele Jonathan is to be the keynote
speaker at the US Nigerian Lawyers Association (NLA)
merit award in New York.
Following an announcement by Nexus U Sea,
president of the association, GEJ is to give the
speech at the event which has been scheduled for
October 29 in New York.
The president of the association said tickets for the
event at on sale on the NLA website. “Early Bird tickets
are $100 for NLA Members and $130 for Non-Members.
We recommend that you purchase your tickets before
Standard Rates apply. The Early Bird period will expire on
August 31, 2016 at 11:59PM. Standard Rates are $130
for NLA Members and $160 for Non-Members. The ticket
price for everyone at the Door will be $180,” Nexus Sea
noted.
According to the NLA, the venue of the event is the
630 Second Ballroom, at 630 Second Avenue.
Mr Sea said the keynote speaker will be joining a long
list of Nigerian dignitaries who have attended the
event in the past.
He named such celebrities as including: “Professor
Wole Soyinka, a 1986 Noble Laureate in Literature, and
world-renowned writer, poet and playwright; Professor
Chinua Achebe, world-renowned writer and author of the
award-winning novel (Things Fall Apart); and Dr Ngozi
Okonjo-Iweala, former World Bank Managing Director and
former Nigerian Minister of Finance.”

According to the NLA website, the annual Merit
Awards Dinner are held “to celebrate the achievements
of distinguished individuals who have made outstanding
contributions in the legal profession and towards the
advancement of public and community service, and to
give out scholarships to law students of color from across
the country, based on need and merit.”
It was not immediately clear what President Jonathan
will focus on in his address. Since losing the
presidency last year, he has spent a lot of time
abroad speaking to audiences about the success of
his administration in tackling corruption and boosting
democracy.
In the next few weeks, he is scheduled to launch his
foundation, the Goodluck Jonathan Foundation,
which he announced last year in a letter to former
President Olusegun Obasanjo.
In the letter, he said he was back to work following
the taking of power by President Muhammadu Buhari,
“to continue to serve and dedicate my life to promoting
peace and prosperity for all,” and that he would be
“devoting the rest of my life and energy to making the
world a better place.”
Dr Jonathan recently canceled his speech at the
Africa Peace Awards Dinner at the California State
University in Sacramento due to health problems.
The information was provided by Jonathan’s special
assistant on new media, Reno Omokri, who
represented the ex-president during the ceremony.
The news was confirmed by Ernest Uwazie, director
of the Center for African Peace and Conflict
Resolution, who added that Jonathan is hospitalized
as of the time.
However, Sahara Reporters claimed that the former
leader was malingering to avoid protests organised by
the LGBT community against the event and Jonathan
in particular.
Commenting on the situation, Mr Uwazie said: “He
(Reno Omokri) will be available to meet with anybody like
the LGBT group that has expressed interest in meeting
with him, before the awards dinner. We’re also looking at
the possibility of some Facetime technology with Goodluck
Jonathan at the hospital where he is.

The four-time world footballer of the year,
Lionel Messi, has reportedly indicated his
willingness to leave the Catalan club,
Barcelona, where he has played for fourteen
years.
Reports indicate that the Argentine wants to
have a feel of the English Premier League
(EPL) where Chelsea, Manchester United
and Manchester City have all shown interest
to land the 28-tear-old player.
Messi, looking disappointed.
Also, it was reported that quite a number of
Lionel Messi’s friends have tried to woo the
player to come to England.
Messi’s readiness to leave Barca has also
allegedly been boosted by the tax-mess he
and his father are currently having in
Catalonia.
Messi and his father Jorge are facing trial
over an alleged tax fraud of £3.1m.
However, the Barcelona player’s current
contract with Barcelona will expire in June
2018 buy has a buy-out-clause of €250million
in it.
Messi is currently battling with a knee-
ligament injury which will keep him out of
action for some time.
The player who has refused to put a
timescale on his return said: “I am improving
every day without setting myself any targets. I
have always said that I don’t set myself any
dates because it isn’t up to me.
Injured Lionel Messi
“As much as I would like to play tomorrow, the
doctors wouldn’t let me. When they tell me
that I have recovered completely will be the
time that I will make my return onto the pitch.”
Meanwhile, FIFA has announced the 23 man
list for the coveted 2015 Ballon D’Or with
Real Madrid’s Cristiano Ronaldo and
