The presidential aspirant under the platform
of the opposition All Progressives Congress
(APC), General Muhammadu Buhari (retd.),
had satisfied the constitutional
requirements to run for the Presidential
seat in February poll.
A constitutional lawer Dr Tunji Abayomi
mentioned this while speaking with
journalists.
He said according to the Section 131(d) of
the Nigerian 1999 Constitution
concentrated not on credentials but on
educational degree.

Released
“ All that the constitution plainly requires in
section 131(d) is a show that he has been
educated up to the school certificate level
or its equivalent, not any particular
certificate, ” Dr Tunji Abayomi said.
He continued: “A certificate where available
may well prove the education level of the
citizen desirous of becoming president, but
without it, he can still meet the educational
qualification by other modes of proof.
“Buhari’s written profile, with or without
the presentation of any certificates,
supported by his deposition, puts it beyond
doubt that he has been educated beyond
School Certificate Level or its equivalent.”
The lawyer further argued that it was
constitutionally “trivial and definitely
unwarranted’’ for anybody to ask Buhari to
show his credentials.
Abayomi confronted that the argument by
some legislators that Buhari must produce
his School Certificate was based on
ignorance of the 1999 constitution.
“ The 1999 constitution as amended is
superior to the provisions of the 2010
Electoral Act as amended,” he added.
The lawyer said that the constitution did
not even say that to qualify for election to
the office of president you have to go to
school.
READ ALSO: See Buhari’s Academic
Records Released By The Nigerian Army
He furthur cited the section 131 of
Nigeria’s 1999 Constitution:
If (a) he/she is a citizen of Nigeria by birth;
(b) he has attained the age of forty years;
(c) he is a member of a political party and
is sponsored by that political party;
(d) and must have also been educated up
to at least School Certificate level or its
equivalent.
It would be recalled that the Nigerian
military had on Tuesday said that it was
not in possession of Buhari’s original
copies of West African School Certificate
(WASC) or statement of result.
But APC presidential aspirant today,
January 21st, hold a press conference to
clear the air on his education certificates.
And at last Government College, formerly
Provincial Secondary School, Katsina, has
released the secondary school certificate
examination results of General Buhari.

**ANOTHER SLAP!**
Femi Fani-Kayode And His Naked Dance
I had intended not to dignify Femi Fani
Kayode with any response since he decided
to dance naked in the market place.
Somebody ought to have reminded him
that those who live in glass houses don’t
throw stones.
He has only himself to blame about his
unpalatable past which has been on display
all over Facebook in the last few days.
In the first place, I no longer have any iota
of doubt that his articles are products of a
sick mind. For instance, he claimed that all
Igbos are vulgar.
My response to this is that Fani Kayode is
not only vulgar and obscene but outrightly
morally depraved. How can any sane man
disclose the lurid details of his escapades
with the opposite sex on the pages of
newspapers all in the name of proving that
he is not a tribalist?
Hear him: “I was not a tribalist when I had
a long-standing and intimate relationship
with Miss Bianca Onoh, an Igbo lady, who
many years later married Ojukwu and who
is now our Ambassador in Spain. I was not
a tribalist when I had a long-standing and
intimate relationship with Miss Chioma
Anasoh, another Igbo lady, who I almost
took as a second wife. I was not a tribalist
when I had a long-standing and intimate
relationship with Miss Adaobi Uchegbu,
another Igbo lady, who was exceptionally
close to me and who is now at the National
Headquarters of the ruling PDP.”
Kayode was also laughable when he wrote:
“I was not a tribalist when I wrote an
essay, just two years ago, extolling the
virtues of Igbo women and telling the
world about their sudden and meteoric
rise and how far they had gone in the
power circles of this country in the last 10
years.”
The complete illogicality of his argument
was further exposed when he wrote:
“I was not a tribalist when many years ago
I attended and gave my life to Christ in a
church called TREM, which was established
by a great Igbo man by the name of
Bishop Mike Okonkwo.”
He further exposed his irrationality by
presenting another position which could at
best be described as non-sequitor in logic.
According to him: “I was not a tribalist
when my grandfather, Justice Victor
Adedapo Kayode, taught Chief Nnamdi
Azikiwe at Methodist Boys High School in
Lagos and when my father, Chief
Remilekun Fani-Kayode, was appointed as
the leader of the predominantly Igbo
NCNC in the Western Regional House of
Assembly”.
Pray, what is the relationship between
Femi’s religious beliefs who once
worshipped in Bishop Mike Okonkwo’s
church and his attempt to deny that he is a
tribalist? Was he trying to say a tribalist
could never attend Bishop Okonkwo’s
Church or what?
Again, of what relevance is the fact that his
grand father Justice Victor Kayode taught
Nigeria’s first President, Dr. Nnamdi
Azikiwe, to the issue at hand?
Another evidence that the man is a very
poor example of what a graduate of
Cambridge University should be, was his
response to some of the rejoinders that
have been written about his “scholarly”
articles.
The self-acclaimed blue-blooded Kayode
stated: “The shameless and emotional
thrash and disjointed verbiage that have
been described as rejoinders so far are just
not up to scratch. They are bereft of any
scholarship and intellectual content. They
also invoke (sic) pity in me for the faceless
plebeians that wrote them and those they
claim to be speaking for.”
In his effort to whip up anti-Igbo
sentiments, he was very effusive in his
emotional outbursts. According to him
Igbos hate Yorubas “and only pretend to
believe in one Nigeria as long as they can
always have their way and laud(sic) it over
others. Worst of all, generally speaking,
they have no restraining factors because
money and the acquisition of wealth is
their sole objective and purpose in life.”
He continued: “They have labelled the
Yoruba as tribalists and Igbo-haters simply
because we have refused to accept their
claims to our land and territory and even
though we were more charitable,
hospitable, accommodating and generous
to them than any other nationality in
Nigeria after the civil war.
“They have labelled the Northerners as
tribalists and Igbo-haters simply because
the North has refused to tolerate their
excesses and accept their complicated
ways. They have labelled the Niger Deltans
as tribalists and Igbo-haters simply due to
the ”abandoned property issue” and
because historically many of them have
always resisted the idea of Igbo
domination.”
Another evidence which clearly indicates
that Femi is not only possessed of a
confused mind but lacks good education,
came few days after his first article
claiming he had intimate relationships with
some Igbo ladies.
The statement which was issued on his
behalf indicated that he never meant to
convey the impression that he had slept
with the Igbo ladies whose names he
mentioned earlier.
For Femi’s information, among the entries
for the word ‘intimate’ as contained in the
Oxford Advanced Learner’s Dictionary of
English is: “having a sexual relationship
especially outside marriage”.
So, how can a so-called graduate of
Cambridge not know the meaning of words
he used in an essay he claims is a scholarly
article?
Worse still, what explanation does he have
for engaging in the use of malapropism
like’ invoke’ in the place of ‘evoke’?
Now to address Femi’s claim that Igbos are
not only strangers in Lagos but have made
little or no contribution to the economic
development of the state.
In the first place, there are historical
accounts which indicate that Igbos have
been present in Lagos since the 16th
century. The Aros- a sub group among the
Igbos- were said to have settled in
Oyingbo in those early days. The Binis who
colonized Lagos and the Aros had a long
historical association. Ancient Igbo history
indicates that the Aros occupied a
prominent place in the ancient Bini Empire
which extended to Lagos and present day
Benin Republic.
Secondly, it is an incontrovertible fact that
Igbos are heavily involved in the
contemporary commercial life of Lagos
State. For instance, it is indisputable that
Igbo traders are not only well represented
in all the major markets in the Lagos
metropolis, they are clearly dominant in
several of them. Even though ours is a
society that lacks records, there is
abundant evidence to convince all the
Femis of this world if they want the truth
on this matter.
For instance, the Minister of
Communications Technology, Mrs.
Omobola Johnson reportedly said not too
long ago that the Computer Village Market
in Ikeja-Lagos, which is heavily dominated
by Igbo traders generates about two billion
dollars (?N300 billion ?) for the Nigerian
economy annually.
Other markets where Igbo traders
dominate overwhelmingly include
ASPAMDA Market-which was built on the
site of the old International Trade Fair-;
Alaba International Electronics Market and
Ladipo Motor Spare Parts Market. Igbo
traders constitute not less than 50 percent
in Balogun, Mandilas, Idumota and other
markets within Lagos Island. Other
markets with heavy presence of Igbo
traders in Lagos include those located in
Oshodi, Yaba, Ajegunle and Agboju.
Although, I cannot give an accurate
estimate of what these markets collectively
generate in the economy of Lagos State,
there is no doubt that they generate more
than triple what is generated by the
Computer Village Market, that is N900
billion annually.
How can Femi dismiss those who presently
generate a conservative amount of N900
billion annually in the economy of Lagos as
inconsequential?
In terms of physical development of Lagos,
Igbos have also contributed massively.
Media reports indicate that most of Ikeja,
Ojo, Anthony, Maryland and Okota were
essentially swampy and bushy until Igbos
moved in. For instance, Ekene Dili Chukwu
Motors was one of the first companies to
move into Allen Avenue in the early
1980s .
The late Igwe J.O. Obi, was by the late
1970s, reported to be the first to move
into Ire Akari Estate in Isolo, when the
whole area was a complete bush.
He was also said to have moved his
company, Interland Transport, into the
Amuwo Adofin Industrial Estate first and
brought telephone lines there when it was
a vast area of sandy-muddy soil. Presently,
a well-developed industrial estate sits in
that area. Igbos in fact developed Isolo
and Okota areas; they single handedly
developed the whole of Olodi-Apapa,
Coker and Ojo areas.
Indeed, the history of the economic
development of Lagos nay that of the
entire country cannot be complete without
a prominent mention of the role of the
Igbos.
In case Femi doesn’t know, the likes of the
Late Sir Louis Ojukwu
contributed immensely to the
development of Lagos. He was the
founding president of the Nigerian Stock
Exchange which still has its headquarters in
Lagos.
It is also worthy of note that during Queen
Elizabeth’s first visit to Nigeria in the year
1956, Sir Louis Ojukwu made his Rolls
Royce car available for the Queen’s
carriage as the Nigerian government could
not afford a Rolls Royce at that time.
Despite their massive contribution to the
economy of Lagos State, Igbos have never
at anytime laid claim to ownership of Lagos
land. The phrase “no man’s land” which
Femi accused Igbos of using to refer to
Lagos may have been a fall-out of the fact
that Lagos was Nigeria’s federal capital
until 1991. It is within this context that I
believe former Abia State Governor, Orji
Uzor Kalu used this phrase.
Just like Abuja of today, a large chunk of
Lagos land belongs to the Federal
Government up till now. Indeed, it was
the status of Lagos as a federal capital for
many years that attracted large numbers of
Igbos to settle there. Natives of Lagos just
like those of Abuja today, lost a lot of their
land during this period. It might interest
Femi to know that many Nigerians refer to
today’s FCT with that same phrase.
Femi exhibited his Igbophobia in the
manner he twisted the nation’s history as
it relates to the crisis that led to the civil
war. His narration of that dark era of our
nation’s history reflects his belief that the
Igbos were to blame for what befell them.
However, the truth of the matter is that
the January 15, 1966 coup d’état was a
spill over of the political crisis which
erupted in the Western Region. Indeed,
Femi’s father Chief Remi Fani Kayode
played a major role in that crisis as Deputy
Premier of Western Region under Sir
Ladoke Akintola.
The crisis actually began in 1962 when
Chief Obafemi Awolowo was jailed for
treason. It got worse with the massively
rigged federal elections of 1964 and the
equally rigged Western Regional elections
of 1965. The Awolowo /SLA Akintola
political feud was at the epicenter of this
crisis which eventually led to the
declaration of a state of emergency in the
region.
The officer corps of the military was
dominated by Igbos at the time the
soldiers intervened to sack a very corrupt
civilian administration. It is therefore not
surprising that among the five majors who
planned and executed the military putsch
of January 1966, four were Igbos and one
was Yoruba. The young officers had actually
planned a revolution. Some accounts of
the incident even indicated that they had
planned to free Awolowo from Prison and
hand over the reins of government to him.
However, they failed to accomplish their
mission.
The five Majors as documented by many
authors were Emmanuel Ifejuna,
Chukwuma Kaduna Nzeogwu, Christian
Anuforo, Timothy Onwatuegwu and Wale
Ademoyega.
Some authors also mentioned Major
Donatus Okafor as one of the plotters.
There is no doubt that given the pattern of
killings they carried out, the impression
was created that it was an Igbo agenda to
seize power by force. However, it took
Major Wale Ademoyega, the only officer
among the five -who survived the civil war-
to debunk the propaganda that what they
executed was an Igbo coup. All these are
contained in Ademoyega’s book entitled
“Why We Struck”.
Assuming, Femi was right, that it was a
coup carried out by Igbo officers who
perhaps hired Ademoyega to cover up,
shouldn’t Murtala Mohammed and his
comrades who carried out the counter
coup of July 29 1966, have been contented
with slaughtering the Head of State Gen.
Aguiyi Ironsi and almost all the Igbo
officers in the Nigerian Army in just one
night? What was the justification in
extending the killings to hundreds of
thousands of the Igbo civilian population
including pregnant women and children?
Femi’s belief that the Igbos deserved to be
slaughtered like chicken because they were
loud in their celebration of the January
1966 coup reveals his deep-seated hatred
for the Igbos.
Finally, if the Igbos who were in majority
in the National Council for Nigerian
Citizens (NCNC) were so bad as Femi
painted them in his write-ups, why did his
father, the late Remi Fani- Kayode defect
from the Action Group to the NCNC in
1959 and remained there until the collapse
of the first republic?
Why did his father rebel against Awolowo
and went ahead to serve as Deputy
Premier of Western Region under the much
demonized Akintola?

2015 PREDICTION: Can APC Win South-
West If General Buhari Emerged as Their
Presidential Candidate?
=================================
BAMIDELE ADEMOLA-OLATEJU has
predicted that, "If General Buhari is fielded
by APC in the next general election, then
APC will lose the South-West by default,
except Osun state. Buhari MIGHT win
Osun state because of the significant
Muslim population in the state and strong
party affliation.
DO YOU BELIEVE IN BAMIDELE's
PREDICTION?

OML's IN NIGERIA, WHO IS FOOLING
WHO? AND, WHO'S LOOSING OUT?
Please, carefully go through the list, how
many Niger Deltans can you find in it?
Funny enough these OML's are all located
in the Niger Delta but, owned, controlled
and hijacked by Non-Niger Deltans yet the
NASS is playing Politricks and Politics with
the Petroleum Industry Bill (PIB),
wickedness.
The world's richest black woman made her
money here too (in the Niger Delta region,
through the OML's), what has she done for
the host Communities that gives her all
the monies that brought her to lime-light?
Have you asked how many Niger Deltans
own the OML's? Whose land is been
abused and tampered with without
replenishment? Why is the Nigerian State
so 'wicked and insensitive' to my people?
This is how these demi-gods make their
money at the expense of the poor Villager,
what a betrayal.
Are these people (the Niger Deltans) so
daft that they cannot control, manage or
own their resources or the OML's? Is this
fairness from this entrapment called
Nigeria? Do you think the BOKO BOYS
would have kept quiet should this happen
in their domain? Let us think devoid of
sentiments here....
Now, see the owners of the 20 most
Richest OML's in Nigeria below. Hmm, if
nothing is done, i see another set of fierce
'unrest' in the region, fiercer than the days
of arms struggle. Have you checked the OIL Companies
operating within the Niger Delta, how
many Niger Deltans are even employed by
them? How many are in top management
positions? Is this fairness? Why incarcerate
the people who produce about 95% of the
total annual income? Let us shun
sentiments, check these points raised,
they're not from the blues. Don't be an
ignoramus, check out.
The Nigerian Government should wake up
and be fair to the Niger Deltans too, let
local contents belong to the local contents.
Always,

The Wondering Wanderer....
20 MOST RICHEST OML's IN NIGERIA AND
THEIR OWNERS...
(1) This oil block business is so lucrative
that Danjuma’s Sapetro divested of its
investment in Akpo condensate for
$1billion dollars. This business is second to
none in Nigeria. That is why any attempt to
investigate the activities in this sector will
always be futile. The money is so much
that they give bribes in millions of dollars.
A birthday gift or child naming gift from an
oil block owner to a government official
could be as paltry as $2million dollars, and
if the official’s father died, the condolence
gift could reach mere $3 million dollars.
When they want to bribe legislators, it is in
millions of dollars and any ongoing
investigation ends within weeks. They are
so confident that with excess money they
can buy up Nigeria and they are
succeeding.
(2) OML 110 with high yield OBE oil fields
was given Cavendish Petroleum owned by
Alhaji Mai Daribe, the Borno Patriarch in
1996 by Sanni Abacha. OBE oil field has
estimated over 500 million barrels of oil.
In layman’s language and using average
benchmark of $100 dollars per barrel,
translates to $50 billion dollars worth of oil
reserve. When you remove the taxes,
royalties and sundry duties worth about
60% of the reserve payable over time you
get about $20billion dollars worth of oil in
the hands of a family.
(3) OPL 246 was awarded to SAPETRO, a
company owned by General Theophilus
Danjuma, by Sanni Abacha in 1998. Akpo
condensate exports about 300,000 barrels
of crude daily.
(4) NOML 112 and OML 117 were awarded
to AMNI International Petroleum
Development Company owned by Colonel
Sanni Bello in 1999. Sanni Bello is an inlaw
to Abdulsalami Abubakar, former Head of
State of Nigeria.
(5) OML 115, OLDWOK Field and EBOK
field was awarded to Alhaji Mohammed
Indimi from Niger State. Indimi is an inlaw
to former Military President Ibrahim
Babangida. (14) OPL 286 is managed by Focus Energy
in partnership with BG Group, a British oil
concern. Andy Uba has stakes in Focus
Energy and his modus operandi is such that
you can never see his name in any listings
yet he controls OPL and OML through
proxies
(15)OPL 291 was awarded to Starcrest
Energy Nigeria Limited, owned by Emeka
Offor by Obasanjo . Immediately after the
award, Starcrest sold the oil block to Addax
Petroleum Development Company Limited
(ADDAX) Addax paid Sir Emeka Offor a
farming fee of $35million dollars and still
paid the signature bonus to the
government. Emeka Offor still retains
stake in ADDAX operations in Nigeria.
(16) Mike Adenuga’s Conoil is the oldest
indigenous oil exploration industry in
Nigeria. Conoil has six oil blocks and
exports above 200,000 barrels of crude
daily.
(17)The oil block national cake sharing
fiesta could take twists according to the
mood of the Commander-in –Chief at the
particular time. In 2006, Obasanjo revoked
OPL 246 which Abacha gave to Danjuma
because he refused to support the tenure
elongation bid of the Ota Majesty. In 2000,
Obasanjo had earlier revoked OPL 241
given to Dan Etete under the advice Atiku.
However, when the Obasanjo-Atiku faceoff
started, the Ota Majesty made a u-turn
and handed back the oil block to Etete.
(18)During the time of Late President
Yarádua , a panel headed by Olusegun
Ogunjana was set up to investigate the
level of transparency in the award of oil
blocks. The panel recommended that 25 oil
blocks awarded by the Obasanjo be
revoked because the manner they were
obtained failed to meet the best practices
in the industry. Sadiq Mahmood,
permanent secretary in the Ministry of
Petroleum endorsed the report to then
president with all its recommendations .
As a result of the report Yarádua revoked
eleven oil blocks.
(19) In April 2011 Mike Adenuga
attempted to buy Shell’s OML 30 for $1.2
billion dollars. The Minister for Petroleum
and Nigeria’s most powerful woman
refused the sale of the OML30 to Adenuga
citing national interest. This block was later
sold to Heritage Oil for $800 million dollars
eleven months later. (14) OPL 286 is managed by Focus Energy
in partnership with BG Group, a British oil
concern. Andy Uba has stakes in Focus
Energy and his modus operandi is such that
you can never see his name in any listings
yet he controls OPL and OML through

which Obasanjo introduced in 2005,
Officials bring companies overnight and
through processes best described as
secretive and voodooist they award blocks
to party faithful, fronts and phoney
companies. They collect gratifications
running into hundreds of millions of dollars
which is paid into an offshore account and
the nation loses billions of dollars of
revenue to private pockets.

Has the Con3 not divided since?? Can mr senu NL go to the North to live life peacefully ??

HISTORY OF CORRUPTION IN
NIGERIA:
1. 1960 - 1966: Sir Abubakar
Tafawa - Balewa's tenure, no public
funds stolen.
2. 1966: Major - General Aguiyi
Ironsi's brief tenure, no public
funds stolen.
3. 1966 - 1975: General Yakubu
Gowon's tenure, very little corruption
creeping in.
4. 1975 - 1976: General Murtala
Ramat Muhammed's tenure, zero
tolerance for corruption and
indiscipline.
5. 1976 - 1979: General Olusegun
Aremu Matthew Okikiola
Obasanjo's tenure, rulers started
owning large properties running
into millions of dollars.
6. 1979 - 1983: President Shehu
Shagari's tenure, characterised by
weak leadership. Ministers and
other top functionaries had a field
day looting all the lootable public
funds and properties even though
the President himself was not
stealing any dime!
7. 1984 - 1985: Major - General
Muhammadu Buhari's tenure, zero
tolerance for corruption, indo -
lence and indiscipline. Corrupt
politicians were jailed a minimum
of 20 years in prison each!
8. 1985 - 1993: General Ibrahim
Badamasi Babangida's tenure,
freed all the corrupt politicians
jailed by General Buhari. These
same freed politicians are majorly
the same set of politicians ruining
Nigeria now. During Babangida's
tenure public funds were being
carted away by public servants like
confetti. In one swoop about 12
billion dollars mysteriously
vanished!
9. 1993 - 1998: General Sani
Abacha's tenure, five billion dollars
stolen in his five years tenure
10. 1998 - 1999: General
Abdulsalami Abubakar's 11
months tenure, about 2 billion dollars
were alleged to have been
stolen. Anyway the man is among
the wealthiest people in the
country today!
11. 1999 - 2007: President
Olusegun Matthew Aremu Okikiola
Obasanjo's second tenure, his
bank account grew from twenty
thousand naira after emerging
from prison to being a multi-
billionai-re with choice properties
in Nigeria and major cities of the world.
Public infrastructure
declined massively and
gangsterism became the order of
the day by his party, the PDP.
Corruption prospered massively in
his tenure. In one swoop 16 billion
dollars just vanished, allegedly for
electric power projects but
darkness was supplied and is still
being supplied in large quantity. In
another mysterious disappearance
the sum of 300 billion naira (2 billion
dollars) meant for road
projects also vanished into thin air.
12. 2007 - 2010: Late President
Yar'a dua's tenure, a quiet reserved
and the messiah that did not live
long to be, the noiseless tenure. But due
to perpetual ill-health was
unable to tame corruption which is
the character and perfume of his
party men and women in the PDP.
Had a slightly large family but he
never allowed public funds to be spent
on feeding the first family.
13. 2010 - Present: President
Nnamdi Azikiwe Ebele Goodluck
Jonathan's tenure, full of noise but
empty of substance. Spends about
a billion naira per year for food for
himself, wife and two kids. In the
2011 election year about 2.6
trillion naira just disappeared from
the public till, which is the highest
disappearance of public funds per
year in the country's history! In tolerant
of criticisms. Suffers
acute inferiority complex and
seems to dislike any war against
corruption. A former Education
Minister and Vice President of the
World Bank, Mrs Oby Ezekwesili
accused his government and that
of his immediate predecessor of
not accounting for about 67 billion
dollars.
Since then his government
has been responding in the
manner of a headless chicken. They are
busy insulting the woman from Delta
with her great achievement and impact
in Nigeria Economy,
instead of stating in facts and
figures what they did with the
money. In fact, the SUNDAY PUNCH
newspaper of 25/11/2012
pointedly said about 31 billion dollars
were stolen since his
government came to being on May
6, 2010. His government looks
promising to hold the medal for
the most corrupt in the world.
May God Have mercy on my fellow
youths and give us the courage and
grace
to
save this country. AMEN
