Politics / Okorocha Accused Of Giving Church N50m Dud Cheque by lanAfo: 3:43pm On Aug 05, 2014 |
Governor Rochas Okorocha has again come under fire as a fiery Catholic cleric, Rev. Fr. Ejike Mbaka, has accused him of giving a N50 million dud cheque to the Catholic Archbishop of Owerri Ecclesiastical Province, His Grace, Dr. Anthony J.V. Obinna. Mbaka told the congregation that Okorocha allegedly gave the dud cheque when the Archbishop wanted to re-roof Maria Assumpta Cathedral, Owerri, that was leaking a the time. “A lot of funny things are happening in Imo State now. Workers are sacked with impunity. Governor Okorocha gave the Archbishop a N50 million cheque that bounced and this is supposed to be a Catholic”, Rev. Fr. Mbaka said. He recalled with grief how Catholics and all Christians rose with anger when a story rented the air that Chief Ikedi Ohakim flogged a Catholic priest. “I recall vividly that not long after I released a song to that effect, I invited the priest at the centre of the alleged beating, Rev. Fr. Eustace Okorie, and sought to know he truth from him. He denied that Ohakim flogged him and since this is the true position, I must also tell the world that Ohakim never dehumanized a priest”, Mbaka said. Reacting to the allegation, Governor Okorocha’s media aide, Mr. Sam Onwuemeodo said Imo State Government never gave Archbishop Obinna N50 million dud cheque. “Let us simply aver and solemnly too, that the claim is not only false, but spurious and curious in many respects. There is no iota of truth in the wild allegation. You can call it an unholy blackmail, taking into account the person behind it”, Onwuemeodo said. He challenged Rev. Fr. Mbaka to go beyond his claim and provide the proofs since cheques are not invisible objects, adding that “since the false claim on the N50m dud cheque didn’t come from the Archbishop of Owerri Archdiocese or from any of the priests in the Archdiocese, it becomes reasonable for us to make do with our candid denial”. Onwuemeodo further stated that with this latest blackmail, Nigerians of goodwill would now begin to appreciate the orchestrated and politically motivated lies being unleashed against Governor Rochas Okorocha’s government by those vividly desperate to take over power from him in 2015. “Fr. Mbaka is not a priest in Imo State, talk more being a clergy in the Owerri Archdiocese of the Catholic Church where highly respected and a very decent priest, Archbishop Obinna superintends. You then ask yourself what is the interest of Rev. Fr. Mbaka”, Onwuemeodo said. www.vanguardngr.com/2014/08/okorocha-accused-giving-church-n50m-dud-cheque/ |

Politics / Air Crashes: Rumours Of Sacrifice, Agagu And Stella Oduah, By Fani-kayode by lanAfo: 7:50pm On Oct 05, 2013 |
Air crashes: Rumours of Sacrifice, Agagu and Stella Oduah, by Fani-Kayode on october 05, 2013 at 6:59 pm in news By Femi Fani-Kayode Last year on June 3rd 2012, there was a plane crash in Nigeria in which over 163 people were killed. The plane was owned by Dana Air. The day before that on June 2nd 2012 a Nigerian cargo plane owned by Kabo Air left our shores and flew to Accra, Ghana where it overshot the runway, crashed into the main road behind the airport and killed many Ghanaian motorists. What made this all the more tragic was the fact that Ghana had never experienced a plane crash at Kotoka International Airport before this incident. It is a pity that it had to be a Nigerian plane, with a Nigerian crew and cargo that had to break that enviable record. Over one year later on 3rd October 2013, which was last Thursday, there was yet another plane crash in Nigeria in which 13 people died. The plane was owned by Associated Airlines. Worse still the following day, which was 4th October 2013, a Saudi Arabian-bound Nigerian plane which was owned by Kabo Airline and which was carrying 400 passengers on board from Sokoto, almost crashed when both it’s tyres exploded mid-air and it had to crash land. Had that plane actually crashed we would have lost another 400 precious souls on that day. Before the first crash took place last year and between the two major crashes there were numerous other smaller ones involving light aircraft, private jets, military planes and helicopters that were not publicised. All these unfortunate events occurred under the tenure of Princess Stella Oduah, who is the current Minister of Aviation. Under her watch close to 200 souls have been killed in air crashes in the last two years alone. This does not surprise me given the nature of the individual that is involved. What does surprise me however is the fact that just one day after those that perished in the latest crash were killed, before the victims were buried, before the site of the crash was cleared, whilst the charred bodies and burnt parts of the victims still lay at the crash site and before any formal investigation into the causes of the crash have commenced, the ruling PDP, through their spokesman Chief Olisa Metuh, has told the world that they have ”full confidence” in Stella Oduah and that ”she should be allowed to continue her good work”. Is there any greater evidence of the fact that the PDP is a sick party that is led by sick people than this? Such insensitivity is rarely seen anywhere in the world. Only in Nigeria can this happen. Not only am I surprised but I am also utterly disgusted. How many more people have to be killed in air crashes before our President realises that he needs a new Minister of Aviation? The truth is that there is far more to aviation than beautifying airports. The first and most important consideration has to be the safety of the passengers and the airworthiness of the planes followed by a solemn and avowed commitment to ensure the discipline, professionalism and efficiency of the aviation parastatals. Most important of all when a plane crashes, whatever the reasons or causes, the Minister ought to assume full responsibility and even offer his or her resignation. Failing that he or she ought to be redeployed to another ministry or completely removed from the cabinet. This is because it is his or her primary responsibility to keep air travellers safe and alive. CRAsHED: Fuselage of the crashed aircraft Embraer 120RT Brasilia, registration number 5N- BJY. Sadly it does not appear that this is likely to happen anytime soon. As a matter of fact I am convinced that even if 1,000 people were killed in air crashes in the space of just 6 months under President Goodluck Jonathan he would still not redeploy or sack Stella Oduah because our President just ”doesn’t give a damn”. Each time a plane crashes it saddens me deeply because to anyone that has ever worked there before aviation is like a family. Worse still those people that lost their lives were our people – they were our fellow Nigerians. It really does hurt. Suffice it to say that there were no air crashes under my watch and not one drop of blood was split from the air whilst I was Minister of Aviation, whether it be passenger plane, private jet, helicopter or light aircraft. I thank God for that because if it had happened I would not have been able to sleep at night. I am the only Minister of Aviation in Nigeria between 2002 to date that can lay claim to that. I put it down to hard work, prayer and the grace of God and nothing else. Unlike some others, I was literally paranoid when it came to air safety and security because it was obvious to me that there was more to the whole thing than meets the eye. Permit me to go into a little detail. The year before I became Minister of Aviation there were 5 plane crashes and 453 people perished from our skies. The airlines that crashed were Bellview (2005), Sosolisso (2006), a Nigerian military plane carrying a large number of senior army officers (2006), ADC (2006) and a private light aircraft in Kano which had on board the adopted son of the PDP National Chairman Ahmadu Ali and a pilot (2006). At the time that all these crashes took place Professor Babalola Borisade was the Minister of Aviation. In November 2006 Borisade was redeployed to the Ministry of Culture and Tourism where I was Minister and I was sent to Aviation and by the grace of God from that point on my team and I, with the full backing and support of President Olusegun Obasanjo, put a stop to the crashes and we broke the cycle. We left office in May 2007 and almost immediately after that the standard dropped again and the cycle of terrible air crashes returned to our shores. They have not stopped since. As I pointed out in another essay which I wrote last year after the Dana crash, 90 per cent of the crashes that have taken place in Nigeria in the last 11 years have taken place at weekends. That in itself is strange but what is even stranger is the fact that there are two ten year cycles of major crashes that have been in operation in our country since 1992. I call them ”sacrificial cycles”. The details are as follows. There was a major crash in 1992 (C-130 military airplane in which 160 army officers were killed). Ten years later there was a second major crash in 2002 (EAS Airline in which 105 people were killed). Ten years later there was a third major crash in 2012 (Dana Airline in which 163 were killed). This represents the first ”ten year cycle” of crashes and if it is not broken there will be another major crash in 2022 which will result in a large loss of life. The second ”ten year cycle” began in 1996 when ADC crashed with the loss of over 160 lives. This was followed by another crash ten years later in 2006 which involved another plane from ADC and which again resulted in the loss of over 160 lives. If the cycle is not broken I have little doubt that there will be another major crash in Nigeria in 2016. These observations have nothing to do with superstition but they are based on painstaking research, facts and logic. There have many other big and small crashes within and between the dates of the two major ”ten year cycles” but what seems amazing and strange to me is the recurrent and definative pattern of the ten year cycles themselves. It is almost as if it is some kind of pagan or religious obligation or debt that is being paid to some hidden and dark forces. Some may dismiss all this as mere coincidence but the actual day and month that all those crashes took place on tells another story which I will not go into here. Whatever anyone else may believe or think I have no doubt whatsoever in my mind that there is a spiritual dimension to these matters and I have been saying so publicly since I was at the aviation ministry. Other than sheer hard work, an insistence on full compliance with safety standards and the display of the most rigorous form of discipline from the top to the bottom, in order to break these patterns and cycles of crashes and protect our skies, much prayer and intercession is required. There are a number of other rather startling and strange patterns, as well, but I am not prepared to share those with the public in order not to create any panic. One thing that I know, though, is that God is in control and that, as the bible says, ”He reveals to redeem”. There is absolutely no cause for any fear or alarm. I have written and spoken many times on this. I have pointed out the problems over and over again and suggested how it can be stopped. It may not stop though because there are some depraved people in our country that do not want it to stop, that benefit from it, that delight in it and that believe in it. This is the bitter truth. That, together with the fact that in Nigeria not enough people care for or truly value human life. We only pretend to care. For more on this, I urge those that are interested to read my essay titled ”Air Crashes In Nigeria, Sacrificial Cycles and the Weekend Phenomenon” which was published in a number of newspapers after the Dana crash last year. They can also read the first segment of my submissions at a public hearing of the Senate Aviation Committee in 2008 which was titled ”My Mandate At The Ministry of Aviation”. They are both on my website… or they can just be googled. My views about the crashes and their causes are well enunciated in both. Other than that I will not say anything about air crashes in Nigeria because what I have said and exposed has already caused me more than enough trouble from those that believe such matters ought to be kept secret and away from the public for reasons best known to themselves. Suffice it to say that my conscience is clear and that I did my very best to save and protect Nigerian lives whilst I was Minister of Aviation. That is all that matters to me and because of that I sleep very well at night. To God alone be the glory. One last point. I find it nauseating and distasteful that some people would relish the fact that the corpse of Governor Agagu went through all that it did when he was being flown to Akure for his final burial rites and that they seemed almost joyful at the fact that the plane crashed resulting in the loss of all those innocent souls. This is a disgrace and I feel utterly outraged by it. The shameful refrain, which is all over the social media, is that Agagu somehow deserved to die a ”second death” from the skies because so many people had supposedly been killed in plane crashes under his watch as Minister of Aviation. This is false. It is also sheer wickedness. As a matter of fact it is evil. File photo: Dana plane crash Only God knows how each of us will come to our end and it is not true to say that the harvest of deaths that took place in the aviation industry whilst President Obasanjo was in power took place under Agagu’s watch. He was appointed Minister of Aviation in 1999 and remained there until 2001 when he was redeployed to the Ministry of Power by the President. I am not aware of ANY plane crashes that took place during Agagu’s tenure as Minister of Aviation. The string of consistent major crashes in Nigeria really began in 2002 when EAS Airline crashed in Kano killing over 105 people including the then Minister of Sports, Mr. Mark Aku. At the time of that crash Mrs. Kema Chikwe was Minister of Aviation and not Agagu. The last major crash that took place before the 2002 EAS crash in Nigeria was the aforementioned ADC crash of 1996 where 160 were killed. The most pronounced years of tragedy and carnage in aviation, which involved 6 major crashes and numerous smaller ones, were really between 2002 and November 2006 when the carnage was finally brought to a halt. Sadly it began again almost immediately after we left office in May 2007 when small planes, light aircraft and helicopters started dropping from the sky. Then came the mysterious disappearance of Ibori’s ”Wings Aviation” plane with a number of fatal casualties from our skies in 2008 and things really went downhill from there. In the last 11 years, between 2002 and 2013 over 850 people have been killed in air crashes in Nigeria- 453 under Borisade and just under 200 of them under Stella Oduah. This is an atrocious record of air safety and I believe that I am right in saying that it is a peace-time world record. Whatever the case it is nothing to be proud of and it reflects badly on all of us, particularly those of us that were once Ministers of Aviation. I have done my research and I have the details of every single crash that has taken place in this country over the last eleven years whether it be a private plane, light aircraft, military aircraft, passenger plane or helicopter. As long as such a crash resulted in the loss of life I have the record of it and all the details. None of those crashes took place under the watch of Dr. Segun Agagu and I implore those that are doing so to stop attributing the sad events that preceeded his burial to some kind of divine retribution for what purportedly occured when he was Minister of Aviation. Nothing can be more cruel than this and nothing could be further from the truth. Permit me to end this contribution with a few words to the families of those that were lost in the crash. It is always a painful thing when we lose someone dear and this is especially so when it happens in such a painful and violent manner. My heart goes out to each and every family that lost their loved ones in this latest crash. May the Lord comfort each and every one of them and may He heal their wounds with the balm of Gilead. My commiserations also goes to the people of Ondo State and particularly to my dear friend and brother Governor Olusegun Mimiko who is a man that I have tremendous respect for, a practising and committed christian and a man of immense integrity and spiritual fortitude. To my dear brothers that were lost in that terrible crash themselves, including Mr. Tunji Okunsanya and his son Tunji jnr. (whose MIC company buried both of my parents in 1995 and 2001 respectively), Mr. Deji Falae who was the Commissioner of Culture and Tourism for Ondo state and so many others, I say the following- may God have mercy upon you. May He forgive you of all your sins. May He cause His face to shine upon you. May He grant you peace eternal. May you abide with Him in eternity. May your souls be blessed forever. May the watchman and the boatman grant you safe passage into the higher realms. May the halls of Valhalla, where the brave shall live forever, be open unto to you. May you never be forgotten and may your names wax strong in our hearts and minds from generation to generation. May the memory of your beautiful smiles continue to give us strength and bring us hope. You were a real blessing to so many. Rest in peace. Until we meet again. www.vanguardngr.com/2013/10/air-crashes-rumours-sacrifice-agagu-stella-oduah/ |

Sports / 15 Ways Professional Athletes Go Broke by lanAfo: 6:59pm On Mar 11, 2013 |
15 Ways Professional Athletes Go Broke By Tony Manfred Two very different ex-NBA players ran into financial issues in two very different ways recently. Robert Swift — who earned $11 million in three seasons — had his house foreclosed on after prematurely flaming out of the NBA and apparently not doing much else. Allen Iverson — who earned $154 million in salary — found out the hard way what happens when you keep living the good life after the paychecks stop rolling in. By looking at these other examples, you get a full picture of exactly how athletes manage to burn through millions of dollars. [Ed. Note: Former BI reporter Abby Rogers contributed to this post] 1. Allen Iverson kept spending ~$360,000 every month after he fell out of the NBA AP PhotoIverson lived beyond his means after his playing career ended. He kept spending thousands on jewelry, clothes, and nights out. His $4.5 million home was foreclosed on as well. 2. Robert Swift flamed out of the NBA at age 24 after skipping college, and his house was later foreclosed on Getty ImagesSwift was one of the last players to go to the NBA straight out of high school. He earned $11 million in three seasons, but after he stopped playing he lost his $1.3 million Seattle home. He left it in squalor. 3. Antoine Walker lost $110 million after taking out massive loans for his real estate ventures NBAE/Getty ImagesWalker says he took out loans with eight different banks, but couldn't pay them all back at once. Here's what he said when asked if he blames his financial advisors: “No. I don’t blame them. I blame more so myself. I think the one thing…that is difficult to do is to do investments while playing basketball. I think if it was one thing I would tell any young guy or anyone who’s playing and making money right now is to wait until the end of your career and start investing and start making money off the field or off the court. 4. Marion Jones lost about $7 million after secretly using steroids AP Photo/Doug MillsThe former holder of the title "fastest woman in the world," lost it and her medals when the world found out she used performance-enhancing drugs. Steroid use, combined with multiple run-ins with the government, including committing perjury to the IRS, cost Marion Jones about $7 million. In an attempt to revive her athletic career, Jones joined the WNBA in 2010, playing with the Tulsa Shock. 5. Mike Tyson's incarceration lost him between $300 million and $400 million Evan Agostini/Invision/APThe man who bit off Evander Holyfield's ear took on more than could chew, both in body parts and in life. He was once known as the heavyweight champion of the world, but in 1992 he was convicted of sexual assault and served three years in prison. He attempted a comeback but was disqualified during the high-profile match in which he bit off Holyfield's ear. The boxer earned between $300 and $400 million during his career but spent nearly all of it on pet tigers, mansions, and an expensive divorce. 6. Curt Schilling says he will lose all $50 million he saved playing baseball on a failed video game venture REUTERS/David McNewThe former Red Sox pitcher's video game company, 38 Studios, filed for bankruptcy in June after missing loan payments. It currently owes $150 million and has just $21.7 million in assets. 7. Tennis player Arantxa Sanchez Vicario says her parents took all of her $60 million in career earnings REUTERS/Heinz-Peter BaderShe says her father handled her money and gave her a monthly allowance (of sorts). She later claimed that her parents spent and mismanaged the money and left her with nothing. 8. Lenny Dykstra's supposed business sense cost him about $50 million AP Photo/Frank Franklin IIThree-time All-Star player Lenny Dykstra, and his omnipresent wad of chewing tobacco, won the 1986 World Series. However, by 2011 he had lost about $50 million. In 2008, he began a high-end jet charter company and a magazine offering financial advice to athletes. In 2009, he filed for bankruptcy, and in 2011 he was indicted on charges of car theft and drug possession. His legal troubles didn't end there. In Aug. 2011, he was charged with allegedly exposing himself to women he met on Craiglist. 9. Michael Vick's animal abuse lost him about $130 million AP Photo/Matt RourkeMichael Vick was once the highest-paid player in the NFL, signing a 10-year contract extension worth $130 million with the Atlanta Falcons. Everything changed in 2007, when he went to prison for participating in an illegal dog-fighting ring. Vick lost his NFL salary and endorsement while incarcerated for two years. He filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in 2008. All told, Vick lost about $130 million. However, he's making a bit of comeback. After his release from prison, he was signed by the Philadelphia Eagles. 10. Evander Holyfield lost about $250 million after failed business ventures AP PhotoAt the height of his popularity, boxing champion Evander Holyfield had sponsorships with international companies, a record label, and a video game. However, his label witnessed only brief success and the father of 11 owed quite a bit in child support. His $10 million estate was auctioned off in 2008. All in all he lost, in addition to his ear, of course, about $250 million. 11. Rollie Fingers thought a pistachio farm would be a good idea and lost about $8 million Rick Diamond/Getty ImagesThe baseball star with the famous handlebar mustache was, in 1992, the only second relief pitcher to be elected into the National Baseball Hall of Fame. He retired in 1985, after both Oakland and Milwaukee retired his jersey, and invested in pistachio farms, Arabian horses, and wind turbines. In 1992, Fingers filed for bankruptcy. He paid his more-than-$4 million debt by selling baseball cards and working, and was eventually cleared in 2007 by the IRS. He still lost about $8 million, though. 12. Latrell Sprewell lost between $50 million and $100 million after some violent outbursts David Sherman/NBAE via Getty ImagesThe man credited with leading both the New York Knicks and the Minnesota Timberwolves to the playoffs couldn't calm his temper. He assaulted P.J. Carlesimo, coach of the Golden State Warriors, twice during practice and was accused, but not charged, of strangling a woman on his yacht. In 2007, he was sued by his long-term companion for ending their relationship agreement, which called for him to support her and their children. Two of his homes also went into foreclosure in subsequent years, bringing his losses to between $50 and $100 million. 13. Kenny Anderson lost about $60 million to his ex-wives Charles Trainor Jr./Miami Herald/MCT via Getty ImagesDespite the fact that he earned about $60 million and played for nine different teams during his career, Kenny Anderson still lost a bunch of money. Anderson had three ex-wives, the first of whom challenged the couple's pre-nup and walked away with half of everything. In addition, he supports his other two ex-wives, his seven children, and helps his mother financially. In the end, he lost about $60 million. 14. Deuce McAllister lost about $70 million when his car dealership went bust Christopher Polk/Getty Images for FedExNew Orleans Saint Deuce McAllister was a two-time Pro Bowl participant. However, off the field his luck turned sour and he lost about $70 million. Nissan sued his car dealership in 2009 for nearly $7 million on a variety of items. In addition, he claimed two security guards at a Bourbon Street nightclub assaulted him. He was named an honorary captain for the Saints in 2010, but officially retired at the end of the year. 15. Scottie Pippen's legal woes lost him about $120 million Mike Ehrmann/Getty ImagesOne of the heroes of Chicago, Scott Pippen played an important role in Chicago Bulls' six NBA championships. However, his luck didn't hold off the court. He lost a lawsuit against his former law firm, in which he claimed they lost $27 million of his earnings in bad investments. And in 2007, he was ordered to pay more than $5 million to U.S. Bank. All told, Pippen lost about $120 million. http://finance.yahoo.com/news/15-ways-professional-athletes-go-broke-220114850.html?page=all |

Atuche's case is still pending and this is just one of the witness' testimony. I think EFCC should act professionally after the court has found Atuche guilty based on this testimony and others. Only then will this be a good fight against corruption else it's another hype for media praise. 2 Likes |
