Seven civilians were killed in an attack in Chad blamed on Nigerian Boko Haram rebels, officials said Monday.
The Islamist militants ambushed people on their way to a market in Tchoukou Telia near Lake Chad on Friday, Dimouya Souapebe, the deputy prefect of Baga Sola told AFP.
Some of the victims had their throats cut while others were shot, he said.
Improvised mines were later discovered along the road between Tchoukou Telia and Ngouboua close to the Nigerian border, which Boko Haram also raided in recent weeks.
The Chadian army is taking part in an regional offensive against the insurgents along with troops from Nigeria, Niger and Cameroon.
On Friday the head of the Chadian general staff, General Brahim Seid, told AFP that Boko Haram’s “nuisance capacity” had been heavily limited by the military intervention

Until penultimate week’s presidential election was won and lost, one regular face on the campaign stumps of President Goodluck Jonathan was Patrick Ifeanyi Uba, the brain behind the Transformation Ambassadors of Nigeria (TAN) – a group which claimed to have secured 18 million signatures across the six geo-political zones endorsing Jonathan’s re-election bid. For those who may not know this 43-year-old businessman from Umuanuka in Otolo, Nnewi, he is the MD/CEO of Capital Oil and Gas – a company that deals in importation, storage, distribution, trading and retailing of oil products.
He first came into the consciousness of Nigerians during the subsidy payments scandal. His company was among those indicted by the Aigboje Aig-Imoukhuede’s Presidential Panel constituted to look into the findings of the report of an earlier investigation panel set up by the Ministry of Finance on Fuel Subsidy payments to the tune of about N2 trillion. As he was battling with this indictment, Asset Management Corporation of Nigeria’s (AMCON) hammer fell on his company following an Abuja Federal High Court ruling over an alleged N48.014bn debt. His adversaries had thought an end had come, business-wise, for this Anambra businessman. Alas, they were wrong!
Uba sprang a surprise like any good student of Niccolo Machiavelli. Like this Florentine philosopher stated in The Prince: “Never attempt to win by force what can be won by deception,” rather than engage in endless legal battles, Uba opted for Machiavelli’s enduring words. It was a season of politics and gradually, he wormed his way into the hearts of the first family. With that came unhindered access to the Villa and the opportunity to project himself as a man who could move mountains for the President, as far as his re-election bid was concerned. Long before even seasoned politicians could come up with the idea of helping Jonathan pursue his re-election bid, Uba had come up with a scheme – the President must be persuaded to seek re-election. And in doing that, he claimed to have secured 18 million signatures for that purpose.
In carnival-like manner, Uba’s TAN moved round major capital cities drumming support for Jonathan and telling those in the corridors of power that 18 million TAN ambassadors were on the field working for the president’s re-election. His group even became a parallel campaign organisation for the President in some states, including Bayelsa where it transformed into a platform for those determined to stop the governor from seeking a second term.
Along the way, he recovered his lost possessions and Society Happenings even gathered that he got much more in terms of emerging as a key player in the kerosene subsidy regime.
Now that the presidential election has been won and lost, with Jonathan’s opponent, General Muhammadu Buhari, declared winner with over 15 million votes, as against Jonathan’s 12 million votes, many are asking: where are the 18million TAN Ambassadors whose signatures Ubah secured for the president’s second term bid? Atleast, those 18 million TAN ambassadors could have given the President three million votes above those of Buhari.

The kidnappers of Mrs. Hamdallah Ettu, the wife of a lecturer in the Department of Biology at the Tai Solarin University of Education, Ijebu Ode, Mr. Gbenga Ettu, have demanded the sum of N20m as ransom.
Mrs Ettu, who traded in foodstuffs, was kidnapped on Friday evening at Ososa, Ogun State, on her way home from her shop.
A family source told our correspondent that the mother of five, who is in her late thirties, was driving home from her shop with her six-month-old son when the incident occurred.
The source said, “Mrs. Ettu was driving home in her Mazda car from the shop where she sells daily needs and foodstuffs before she was kidnapped. The incident occurred around after nine in the evening on Friday.
“The distance between her shop and her house is not more than five minutes. She was in the car with her baby who is just six months old but they only took her and even left her purse and phones in the car.
“But they have called this morning to demand the sum of N20m as ransom for her.”
The source added that Mr. Ettu had made reports at the Idowa Police station.
However, the Ogun State Police Public Relations Officer, Muyiwa Adejobi, told our correspondent in a text message that he was not aware of such incident.
He promised to get back but has yet to do so as of press time

The Mumbai Central court on Saturday remanded two Nigerians, who were caught red-handed while smuggling a huge quantity of cocaine into the city, to police custody till April 13. Custody was granted after the Mumbai Central GRP, which had caught the duo, informed the court that the officials wanted to find out where the accused were heading with the consignment, as well as the source of the drugs.
The Mumbai Central court on Saturday remanded two Nigerians, who were caught red-handed while smuggling a huge quantity of cocaineinto the city, to police custody till April 13. Custody was granted after the Mumbai Central GRP, which had caught the duo, informed the court that the officials wanted to find out where the accused were heading with the consignment, as well as the source of the drugs.
The duo has been identified as Ogugua Peter Onyekwelu, 34 and Arthur Ifeanyi Maduawuna, 29. Rajendra Tiwari, a senior inspector with the Mumbai Central GRP informed how the accused were nabbed, saying: "The men boarded the Rajdhani express from Delhi and alighted at Mumbai Central. Their body language seemed suspicious, so we interrogated them."
The inspector said that their suspicions were right as the accused were caught with 746 gms of Cocaine. "We first checked with their baggage, but found nothing there, but when we frisked them, we found packets of the drugs sealed in capsules, hidden in their undergarments," added Tiwari.
The cost of the seized drug is Rs46.4 lakh in the Indian market, while in the international market, it is Rs5 crore, he informed.
The inspector explained how the accused would carry the capsules if they were to travel by air and sell the stuff in the global market. "Usually, the procedure used by these smugglers is that they laminate the capsules and swallow them. Once egested, though the lamination rubs off, the capsules are intact. The drug can therefore be recovered," Tiwari said.
The police is yet to find out where the duo was heading with the consignment.

When was the last time you saw this lamp or do you still have it in your house?

One of the members of the musical crew of
Ayinla Omowura, the late Yoruba musician
who sang a genre known as Apala, has narrated
how the band was formed.
The 88-year-old Rahmon Adewale spoke to
PREMIUM TIMES at a public function in
Abeokuta, about 35 years after the death of the
popular singer.
Mr. Adewale, a retired drummer, narrated how
he invited Omowura to become the lead singer
for the group. He said it was while beating
drums at public events across Abeokuta that
some of his fans suggested to him to look for a
musician with good voice to complement his
efforts.
“I was an Apala drummer, who entertained
residents of Abeokuta and environs,” he said
in Yoruba language. “When my fans cherished
my performance and talent, they called on me
to get a musician with good voice to
complement my efforts.”
“This was what led to my search, and I
thereafter discovered Ayinla, who was then a
trainee with a late Apala musician, known as
Osho Oba.”
Mr. Adewale, popularly called ‘Onilu-Ola’,
which means ‘successful drummer’ in Yoruba,
stated that the first time he approached
Omowura to join him for a musical show, the
latter expressed fear that his boss would not
allow him. He said he persuaded the singer to
lie to his boss that he was sick.
The drummer said the first show he attended
alongside Omowura was at Igbogila in Yewa
North Local Government Area of Ogun State.
He said it was after the event that the band was
encouraged to start producing albums. Mr. Adewale also narrated a conflict he had with the late musician.
“I dislike cheating. When money was coming
in, he was not showing concern for my welfare,” he said. “After complaining severally
and he was not yielding, I decided to pull out from the band; but the quick intervention of some of our notable fans saved the situation and thereafter we resolved our differences.”
The octogenarian also refuted insinuations that Omowura was a drunkard, saying “he was a lazy drinker, who after taking two bottles of beer, would not go beyond that.”
He also narrated how the singer died in 1980.
According to the retired drummer, Omowura was trying to retrieve a motorcycle he bought for one of the band members, called Bayewu, following differences between them. The singer trailed Bayewu to a beer parlour in Ago-Oba area of Abeokuta, to retrieve the motorcycle. A fight ensued between them, and in the process, Baiyewu was alleged to have smashed a thick glass cup on Omowura’s head, who slumped and died thereafter.
The drummer also said he played a role in Omowura’s marriage after the wife’s parents initially rejected the relationship due to what they believed was the musician’s stubbornness. He said his intervention and appeal to the parents made them agree to the wedding.
Mr. Adewale said the crew was disbanded after the death of Omowura

The Nigerian Supreme Council for Islamic Affairs has hailed Jonathan, Buhari and the Chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission, Prof. Attahiru Jega, for the peaceful conduct of the Saturday’s presidential election.
A statement by the President, Ekiti chapter, Alh.
Yakubu Sanni, commended Jonathan for his rare
display of courage and statesmanship by conceding
victory to Buhari even before the official results was
finally announced.
“This singular act, apart from being in line with the
best democratic practices internationally, has further elevated his status as a statesman and a true democrat.”
The Islamic body, however, urged the INEC to rectify all the teething problems confronting the use of card readers before the forthcoming April 11
Governorship and State Houses of Assembly
elections.
Also, the Catholic Bishop of Ekiti Diocese, Most Rev.
Felix Ajakaye, has appealed to the Ekiti people to
avoid violence while celebrating the victory of Buhari
at the poll.
The bishop urged the people to be peaceful and
orderly during the governorship and House of
Assembly elections, slated for April 11.
The Ekiti State Labour Party Elders’ Forum has also
congratulated Buhari on his victory, saying
his emergence was akin to a bloodless revolution
predicted by the late sage, Chief Obafemi Awolowo

Ekiti State Governor, Ayodele Fayose, has lifted the
dusk to dawn curfew imposed on the state on
Tuesday to prevent violence that might arise after the declaration of the final results of the Saturday’s
Presidential election.
Major Gen. Muhammadu Buhari (retd.) of the All
Progressives Congress won the election, defeating
President Goodluck Jonathan of the Peoples
Democratic Party.
Fayose in a statement by his Chief Press Secretary,
Idowu Adelusi, on Thursday said the 7:30pm to
6am curfew was lifted to allow Christians celebrate
Easter

Unidentified gunmen have shot dead two
persons in Ngor Okpala Local Government Area of
Imo State in the last two days.
The victims are Labour Party, LP, candidate for the
state House of Assembly, Mr. Andrew Ugwuezumba,
and an Abuja-based businessman, Mr. Bennett Nnaji.
Ugwuezumba, from Umunehi, Obiangwu, was
murdered at Airport Road, while Nnaji, a native of
Umuohiagu, was killed a few metres to the Airport
Junction.
Speculations making the rounds in Ngor Okpala
indicated that the killings were politically motivated,
while some people think assassins were purely on
rampage.
Vanguard gathered that Ugwuezumba had attended a political meeting at Umuowa, where he addressed
party faithful, and was driving back home in his
Toyota Sequia sports utility vehicle, SUV, when the
hoodlums killed him.
When Vanguard visited Ugwuezumba and Nnaji
family homes, close relations were too devastated to speak on the issues, but some villagers claimed that the deceased were shot at close range.
In the case of Nnaji, he was said to have relocated to his country home, Umuohiagu, for the presidential and National Assembly elections.
“He was driving home when the armed hoodlums
gave him a hot chase and shot him several times at
close range,” a villager said.
When newsmen sought the views of the Police Public Relations Officer, Mr. Andrew Enwerem, he said the matter had not been reported to the state command at the time of the inquiry

In many circumstances, any mortal above 70 years of
age is seen, at best, as a symbol or agent of history.
He is not the first person you want to consider when
you are looking for an agent of change.
But, at 72, Daura, Katsina State-born retired General,
Muhammadu Buhari, has upturned that philosophy.
On Tuesday, he emerged winner of Nigeria’s most
keenly-contested presidential election, thus making
him the first person to sack a sitting President in
Nigeria. With this, Buhari appears to have completed
the process of his professed conversion from a
dictator to a democrat.
But the General’s victory did not come from the
blues. While observers believe the accumulated
failures of the Goodluck Jonathan administration
constituted hazards for any candidate that the
Peoples Democratic Party might have presented, it is
Buhari’s integrity and doggedness, which inspired the
people to fall in love with him, that have eventually
paid off.
Thrice he had contested the presidential election,
thrice he had lost. He had, indeed, somehow given up
hope when shortly before the 2011 election, he
betrayed his grey hairs as he burst into tears and
said the attempt was likely to be the last he would
make. Yet, somewhere in his spirit, he appeared to
believe that winners do not quit just as quitters do
not win.
And Buhari’s success was baked in the oven of
towering odds. The first is that he was up against an
incumbency that was prepared to give the fight all it
could. Apart from the fact that the PDP had been
entrenched, having been in power since 1999, the
Jonathan administration was determined to stay in
power, with some of its drivers flaunting indices of
desperation. Of course, the opposition All
Progressives Congress too are far from being angels.
But many believe that the presidential election has
been the most expensive Nigeria has witnessed, with
the Federal Government, predictably, been the
shining star in the dirty game of money the country
has turned democracy into.
Besides, Buhari’s antecedents are loaded with both
roses and thorns. In the negative side, he carried a
baggage that would make his journey to Aso Rock as
tight as passing through the proverbial needle’s eyes.
Here is a General that wanted to benefit from a
system he and his co-coup plotters once truncated,
having sacked the Shehu Shagari government in
1983. His enemies were simply not prepared to care
whether or not his regime had some pluses in terms
of the discipline it wanted to instil in the social
structure.
And apart from being an analogue man, as his age
and opponents projected him to be, Buhari seemed
to have a vault of utterances that portrayed him as a
religious and tribal extremist. That is why it was not
too difficult for Jonathan’s campaigners to feast on
these issues and projected the General as the worst
thing that could happen to Nigeria. They did these in
vulgar speeches, hate adverts and several
documentaries, one of which is so deadly that
whoever survived it is likely to have something
supernaturally working for him.
But while the case against him was that phenomenal,
his supporters too were simply fanatical. To every
person that was ready to cast the first stone, there
were three or more disciples ready to anoint his feet
with ballot oil. That is why in the fight over Jonathan
and Buhari, Twitter was rattled with infernal
messages, Facebook friends became Facebook
enemies, with spouses torn at each other’s throat,
just as scores of people found themselves in graves.
The PDP too knew how tough the Buhari candidature
would be. This is evident in statements made by
some of its leaders when Buhari won the presidential
primary of the APC. Indeed, a Jonathan would do all
he could to prevent Buhari from emerging as his
opponent in the first place. But somehow, the man
who actually had no money to compete with his
opponents in the APC dusted the likes of former Vice-
President Atiku Abubakar and Governors Rabiu
Kwakwanso and Rochas Okorocha of Kano and Imo
respectively.
The adversity was daunting, but the General’s time
has come. The reason is that in him, people see a
flicker of hope. They see a leader who has preached
what he preaches in terms of his stance against
corruption. Jonathan ironically helped him when,
several times, he laboured to teach the world the
difference between stealing and corruption, and the
fact that Nigerian politicians are not as corrupt as
many people think. If anything, it was during the
extra time of the presidential campaign that the now
Otuoke-bound man pointedly promised to fight the
menace with digital mechanism.
Buhari has been a head of state, a minister of
petroleum and head of the juicy Petroleum Trust
Fund, but he did not come out as bogusly rich as
many of his contemporaries are. So, most people
who chose him in the election genuinely did so,
firmly believing that he will not steal their money.
That is why when the PDP was campaigning that
Buhari would send people to prison, many voters
were very happy because they know that most
Nigerian politicians are supposed to be behind bars.
Day and night, Buhari radiates the kind of
seriousness and discipline that a leader should be
synonymous with. He does not give in to frivolities
and that is the kind of leader that Nigeria needs now.
Will Buhari truly bring sanity to governance in this
wealthy but impoverished country?
It has been noted that a tree does not make a forest,
in terms of the kind of people he will work with.
Latter Rain Assembly Pastor, Tunde Bakare, put it
tactically when he said that he believed in Buhari’s
capacity to deliver, but that he was afraid of the
environment in which the General would work. This
seems to be an area in which not only Buhari, but
also all Nigerians should work. Buhari has come to
be the symbol of change that the country needs
badly. But he must not only deliver, he must be
moved and seen to do so. At every point that he takes
a wrong step, and that any agent of his government
does so, as many people and organisations as
possible should vehemently query them, so that the
story of the change will not be a fluke.
Nigerians know he has enjoyed a kind of goodwill
that, at times, one wonders if he merits. He dares not
mess this up. This is the way Jonathan had it in 2011.
Posterity forbids, if Buhari too thus disappoints the
polity, he and the entire APC can be sure that it is the
same broom with which the incumbent is being
swept out that they will be visited with. Will the
General truly deliver and give the country the dawn
of a new era? Time must tell

Itls look like propaganda but if you know civil servant in Ekiti state ask them they will confirm the report

The All Progressives Congress (APC) in Ekiti State has
called on the people to beware of the phantom jobs
the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) administration
wants to deceive them with.
The party, in a statement yesterday by its Publicity
Secretary, Taiwo Olatubosun, said Governor Ayodele
Fayose’s plan to inaugurate an Appointment
Committee to prepare for massive employment is a
hoax.
The APC said the plan was conceived on Monday at a
meeting in the Spotless Hotel, where he told his
loyalists that he would constitute the committee to
sway aggrieved members of PDP to work for the
party.
Olatubosun said those Fayose would announce at its
inauguration would be aggrieved PDP members, who
are influential in their communities.
He said this was a grand lie, adding that the governor
would not appoint anybody as he had repeatedly
said.
“What is the job of the Civil Service Commission and
the Local Government Service Commission? Or does
a governor need any committee before he can
approve appointments?
“What has he done with job applications he asked
Ekiti youths to write during his campaign when he
promised that jobs would be available after his
victory, if Ekiti people voted for him?
“Check the Spotless Hotel where he packed all the
application letters and you will discover that all the
letters have been burnt,” Olatubosun said.
The APC spokesman warned the people not to be
deceived, saying whatever the committee
recommends would be discarded after the election.
The party said it had uncovered a plot by the
governor to coerce civil servants and teachers to
work for the re-election of President Goodluck
Jonathan or get sacked.
Olatubosun said two panels were set up to achieve
the plan, adding that one was for civil servants and
another for teachers.
He said the two panels had started functioning to
ensure that workers are “whipped in line” to ensure
their loyalty.


http://www.thenationonlineng.net/new/ekiti-apc-alerts-to-fayoses-fake-jobs/

All Progressives Congress in Ekiti has accused
Governor Ayodele Fayose of plotting to force state
workers to vote for Peoples Democratic Party in the
Saturday elections or be prepared to lose their jobs.
The party also accused the governor of deceiving the
people by promising them jobs not available.
But Fayose, who denied the allegations said the
people should discountenance the opposition party.
A statement by APC Publicity Secretary, Taiwo
Olatubosun, said the plan to inaugurate an
Appointment Committee to prepare grounds for
massive employment “is a hoax.”
Olatubosun said Ekiti people should note that all the
committee members that Fayose would announce at
the inauguration ceremony slated for the
Government House would be mainly aggrieved PDP
members who are influential in their communities.
He said this was a grand lie and deceit, adding that
the governor had no plan to appoint anybody as
repeatedly said since he assumed duties.
He added that the governor had raised two panels
working hard to enlist the support of the civil
servants and teachers with the order that the
workers must deliver their units for PDP or face sack
if they failed.
“You would recall that some teachers were recently
transferred from the city to remote areas. This is a
reward for not showing commitment to President
Jonathan’s project, which is so important to the
governor. This daily harassment and coercion of
teachers and civil servants has rendered them
frustrated and traumatized as they have become
helpless and resigned to fate,” Olatubosun added.
But denying the allgeations on Wednesday on behalf
of the governor, the State Publciity Secretary of PDP,
Mr. Joseph Adaraniwon, accused the APC of trying to
mislead the people.
He said, “The governor does not have to coerce
workers to vote for Jonathan when he is paying their
salary and allowances regularly. He is a friend of
workers.
“How would they know there is no job when they are
not governor. Fayose does not say what he would not
do and the people know him for that.

President Goodluck Jonathan is on trial in Saturday's presidential elections. The evidence against him is mounting. The speed with which the 2011 favorite native son without shoes has gone from celebrated to excoriated is alarming. No one seems to have a solution within his PDP ruling party to reverse the trend.

We have never had it so bad. It has been a long walk in the wilderness. The Jonathan presidency has taken its toll on Nigeria. Despots like Abacha, Babangida, were far more generous to Nigerians. After all, they were not voted into office. We were governed the way dictators rule their subjects.

Majority of Nigerians exist somewhere on a continuum between slavery and freedom in Jonathan's administration. There is outright subjugation. There is indentured servitude. There is molestation and intimidation. There is fear and insecurity. There is pestilence of social and criminal injustices. There is epidemic of hopelessness. There is metastasized poverty. There is systemic corruption...



There is spiritual blindness. In the stunted economy, those who find work are often exploited and poorly paid if by luck they're paid.

In this campaign season, Jonathan has covered more geographical areas in Nigeria than his counterpart from the opposition party. It is also on record that no Nigerian politician has sought endorsement from unlikely sources and groups like Jonathan. Jonathan with unlimited cash has bought endorsements of prosperity preachers aka gospel comedians of CAN, local terrorists OPC, NDPVF,MEND, Obas, Obis, Babalawos (juju doctors), Ogun, Oya, Sango, Obatala, Soponna, Ayelala, army of brigands and bandits, and lately the Ogbonis.

The political campaign is now in the homestretch. I'll like to remind Mr. Jonathan to cap his endorsements with the most crucial and potent endorsement – the endorsement of Witch of Endor – and he should consider visiting the Witch of Endor for victory in Saturday's election.

Here is why:
The parallels between King Saul and President Jonathan are strikingly overwhelming. Saul had been denied a dynasty and stripped of his kingdom due to his disobedience. Saul had abolished the rules of Holy War, keeping some of the spoils and allowing the King of Amalekite army to live. Like Saul, Jonathan is determined to cling to power. In 2011, he had signed an undertaking that he would not contest for second term. But then, he denied ever seen such a contract.

When he realized his defeat was assured at the polls, he postponed the elections. The cornerstone of his administration is corruption, crime, lack of accountability, and transparency, looting, and violence. In fact, Jonathan had legalized corruption and made it a national creed and national pride. He had converted the treasury to his own personal ATM bribing eligible voters with Dollar on the campaign trail.

Like Saul who spared the king of the Amalekite army, Jonathan spared and surrounded himself with big time thieves, drug barons, election riggers, violent criminals like Buruji Kashamu, Dokubo Asari, Tompolo, Diezani Alison-Madueke, Femi Fani-Kayode, Doyin Okupe, Ayodele Fayose, Bode George, Musiliu Obanikoro, David Mark, and who's who in the Nigeria robbery cartel.

When Samuel confronted Saul with sin, Saul offered “orthodox” excuses claiming that he had spared some animals in order to sacrifice to Yahweh. When critics and opponents confronted Jonathan he said “Corruption is not stealing, corruption in Nigeria is not as bad as it has been exaggerated … how much did Jim Nwobodo stole (sic)?”

Saul refused to step down from his throne after being rejected as king and the situation deteriorated. He was tormented by evil spirit and became increasingly antagonistic toward David, threatening his life on numerous occasions and ultimately pursuing him relentlessly around the wilderness. Likewise, Jonathan is bent on retaining power at all cost after being rejected by in the court of public opinion by Nigerians and the situation of Nigeria degenerates daily.

Jonathan has shown support and approved election rigging methods that will ensure his return to Aso Rock. He's tormented by demonic spirit of corrupt power. He has become more wicked and cruel toward Nigerians and opposition members. He deploys military and police to rig elections for his party.

Probably, the most profound challenges Saul faced as king were matters of national defense. One morning, King Saul was awakened by his secretary of defense with bad news. Somehow the powerful enemy forces of the Philistines had encircled the relatively weak collection of Hebrew troops guarding the Hebrews. The Philistines were on their way to root out the Hebrews.

Saul remembered how well things had often gone when there was no king and the leadership of the Hebrew nation was in the hands of prophets and judges. At the top of the list had been Samuel, whom the Hebrews still mourned. King Saul wondered what Samuel would have advised them to do had he still been living and involved in leading the people to make strategic decisions.

Saul couldn't get that thought out of his head and one thing led to another like what happened when Mrs. Reagan began to consult with an astrologer every morning so that she could advise her husband the Actor/President of the US, how to act in the face of the challenges that would face him that day. Saul decided to look for a medium the Witch of Endor who could consult with the dead Samuel in order to get some advice. And we all know what happened to Saul and his sons afterward.

Similarly, the issue of safety and security in Nigeria is perhaps the greatest problem facing the Jonathan administration. It has been over 300 days since Boko Haram terrorists with relative ease abducted 300 Chibok schools girls and carted them off into captivity. The Nigerian Army whose Commander-in-Chief is Jonathan, is no match for the ragtag Boko Haram forces.

Jonathan, chased by desperation, frustration and the lust of power to hold on to the presidency becomes confused, overly-agitated, restless, incoherent, delusional, and can't think right. He has been running from pillar to post. He was in Jerusalem to pray. He attended vigils in Pentecostal churches and other prayer assemblies. Babalawos (Juju doctors), Afas, Ogbonis, name it intercede on his behalf. Like Saul, Jonathan stormed the residence of Atiku Abubakar in the dead of the night looking for support. A reliable source told me Dame Patience, and Jonathan's mother have joined association of familiar spirits to assist Jonathan to win the elections.

As my own campaign contribution to Jonathan's reelection bid, I humbly recommend him to seek the endorsement of mother of all endorsements – endorsement of the Witch of Endor. But this much I can guarantee Jonathan: election cannot be won with the endorsement of the Witch of Endor because the dead cannot direct the living. No amount of endorsements can give Jonathan victory on Saturday the fact that he has long ignored Nigerians, Nigerians are living with the daily ugliness of slum life, and with educational castration and being trampled by the iron feet of exploitation, their emotional outbursts will break out in massive rejection of Jonathan by voting him out on Saturday.

Jonathan will go down in Nigeria's history as probably the most deviant figure. I say that because he reveals and represents a deep cultural preoccupation with failure and inadequacy which are projected unto deviant figures. He serves as a mirror to the culture which produced him – a mirror in which our culture darkly glimpse its own values, distorted by terrifying failure to achieve that which is necessary to move this sleeping giant nation forward.

Ding Dong! Ding Dong! like King Saul the “I don't give a damn” President is defeated!

The Campaign Coordinator of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, governorship candidate in Kuta area of Niger State, Alhaji Akilu Ishaku Kuta has defected to the All Progressives Party, APC, along with about 1,500 of his supporters.
Ishaku who was former Vice Chairman of Shiroro Local Government Area in state formerly defected at a rally in Kuta town Wednesday saying that he was doing so because of the under development witnessed in the area since the inception of the present PDP administration in the state.
He compared the present administration to the immediate past administration and concluded that all the local government councils in the state had witnessed setback in terms of development.

President Jonathan has penciled down Dieziani Allison-Madueke and a few other ministers perceived to be untouchable for sack in a bid to gain popularity in some stronghold states of the All Progressives Congress (APC)

The supposed sack of Allison-Madueke, the Minister of Petroleum Resources and other ministers would be affected in the form of a cabinet reshuffle, according to Bluesprint.

A reliable source privy to the on-goings said the planned reshuffle is part of Jonathan’s “three-prong approach” to win more support as the campaign pulls into the home stretch.

Diezani was described as: “more of a liability than an asset”. “The president is aware that her presence has brought so much ill feeling to his government. The decision to let her go was taken in the first week of February,” the source explained.

The source said: “Two of the planks are already in full throttle; getting the anti-terror campaign to an irreversible point of victory and to throwing himself completely into the ground game.


“The latter has seen the president return to the South-west battle ground repeatedly. The VP is also all over the North.

“The two moves, according to the source, “have put Jonathan’s opponents on notice that he is ready for the battle and the steps have seen his popularity soaring up.

“The third and final leg of the strategic steps being taken by the president is said to be the last minute cabinet shake-up to shave off “the dormant and liability ministers”.

The coming cabinet shakeup by President Jonathan is aimed at laying off ministers otherwise thought to be the untouchables.

Allison-Maduekwe joined the then President Umaru Musa Yar’Adua government from inception in 2007 as minister of transport. She was appointed to head the petroleum ministry in 2010

Her popularity has plummeted after investigations by Price WaterHouse Coopers revealed that the Nigeria National Petroleum Corporation( NNPC), could not account for $20 billion oil money her watch. Deziani is also accused of refusing to make the report of the investigation public despite public outcry

An investigation by SaharaReporters has revealed that President Goodluck
Jonathan and his associates are masterminding a spike in protests against
Attahiru Jega, the chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission
(INEC). Numerous sources within the president’s circle disclosed that Mr.
Jonathan has accepted the advice of hawkish members of his kitchen group to
ask Mr. Jega to proceed on terminal leave next week.
Jega Must Go protest by OPC in Lagos today
In order to prepare Nigerians and the international community for the imminent
sack of Mr. Jega, President Jonathan approved the distribution of N200 million
in each zone of the federation to mobilize protests against the henchman of the
electoral body. The spate of orchestrated protests started last week on a small
scale in Nigeria’s capital of Abuja, then moved to the southeast where members
of the Movement for the Actualization of the Sovereign State of Biafra
(MASSOB), staged several large-scale protests demanding Mr. Jega’s removal.
One source at the Presidency told our correspondent that the Odua People's
Congress (OPC) staged a rally in collaboration with a pro-Jonathan group in
Lagos today and a few more protests are planned for other southwest states at
the urging of sponsors who are embedded in Aso Rock, Nigeria’s seat of power.
In addition, a group of ex-militants from the Niger Delta are expected to stage
another set of rallies any day now to ask for Mr. Jega's removal.
Once the orchestrated demonstrations reach a crescendo with the ones in the
Niger Delta, the Secretary to the Federal Government, Anyim Pius Anyim, is
expected to write a letter to the INEC chairman ordering him to start his pre-
retirement leave.
Our sources said the Jonathan administration has concluded that the removal
of Mr. Jega from the electoral commission would present the only hope that the
use of biometric voters card and electronic card readers would be abandoned.
“Mr. President and his close advisers feel that Professor Attahiru Jega is now
too stubborn to eliminate the use of permanent voter cards and electronic
readers for the 2015 elections,” one source said.
Once Mr. Jega is sent on compulsory terminal leave, said our sources, President
Jonathan will replace him with one of the national commissioners who is open
to the idea of doing away with electronic card readers.
Even though Mr. Jonathan has often listed the introduction of permanent voters
cards (PVC) as part of his legacy, he and his closest associates have been
pushing for weeks, covertly and overtly, to abandon the system. The president’s
team has argued that too many voters were yet to collect their PVCs, adding
that the electronic mode was open to a wide margin of error.
But INEC has countered that most of the PVCs have been picked up. In addition,
Mr. Jega and members of civil society groups have defended the system, calling
it key to combatting rigging and other malpractices that have plagued past
elections in Nigeria.
Most opposition parties, including the All Progressives Congress (APC) that is
seen as posing the biggest threat to Mr. Jonathan and the ruling Peoples
Democratic Party (PDP), have staunchly opposed the removal of Mr. Jega.

Some former members of the Peoples Democratic Movement (PDM), a political
machinery that was the brain child of the former vice president, Atiku Abubakar,
have revealed how the embattled governor of Ondo state, Olusegun Mimiko,
bribed leaders of the party to endorse President Goodluck Jonathan for a second
term.
They spoke on Monday shortly after the endorsement press conference at the
Adegbemile Cultural Centre Press in Akure on Monday by the members of the
group under the banner of Atiku and the PDM.
The group, which has members across the Southwest states of the country
through its leader, Bode Ajewole said their decision to endorse Jonathan was
hinged on the position of Jonathan to implement the recommendations of last
year’s National Conference immediately he is reelected.
They said: “The Yoruba people are in the support of the recommendation of the
Confab held last year, most which the sitting president Dr. Goodluck Ebele
Jonathan has vowed to implement immediately after his re-election.
"Believing in the ultimate fulfillment of Jonathan promises to us in the
southwest, we therefore direct all members of AAA/PDM collectives and all
members of the Yar-Adua political family in the southwest including those in
APC, SDP, PDM, Labour Party and Accord to support and vote for President
Goodluck Jonathan.”
But speaking with a SaharaReporters correspondent shortly after the purported
endorsement, the members of the group confirmed they were bribed through the
leadership of the group to endorse President Jonathan.
Some of them, who spoke under condition of anonymity, disclosed to
SaharaReporters that they were fully mobilized from other Southwest states to
travel to Akure, with all expenses paid, to carry out the endorsement, and that
their leaders received a huge sum of money from Governor Mimiko for the job.
“Quote me anywhere, Governor Mimiko gave us money through our leaders to
endorse President Goodluck Jonathan for second term. I know you are very
inquisitive and eager to know more but I won’t tell you the amount I was given
but I can tell you it’s a bribe”, one of the members said.
A woman and member of the PDM from Ekiti State also disclosed that she
received a text message from the publicist of the group to mobilize members to
Akure for the endorsement. Thereafter they were paid cash for the visit, she
said.
“Although leaders of the group have been telling us that there would be a
meeting in Akure with some powerful politicians but they never revealed that the
meeting would be with governor Mimiko to endorse President Jonathan but this
morning I received a text message to mobilize some members to Akure for a
Press conference and that was how I got to know that it was President
Jonathan they want to endorse”, she revealed.
“I received N30, 000 for the visit, although a friend told me, I was cheated
because I came all the way from Ogun state in free vehicle but at least I didn’t
lose, I still gained from them”, another member told our correspondent.
Asked if he would surely vote Jonathan in the next week presidential election,
he said “My friend, I don’t know the people in other Southwest states but for
[us] in Ogun State Jonathan is a failure because if I vote him, my wife would kill
me, she dislike Jonathan [more] than anything. The man has done nothing in
the Southwest and he wants [our] vote.
“We are just collecting this money because it’s our money. We shall keep on
deceiving him and his cohorts like Mimiko, we know that General Buhari is the
only change for now that we need”, he declared.
Meanwhile, the National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Movement (PDM),
Bashir Yusuf, has described those who endorsed President Goodluck Jonathan,
at a press briefing in Akure as “not card carrying members” of the movement.
“We wish to make it categorically clear that members of the group that
addressed the press conference in question are not members of PDM,” he
declared in a statement issued in Abuja on Monday. “They defected from our
Party in June last year to pursue their aspiration in APC and are no longer
members of our party.”
Furthermore, he stressed that the party had already endorsed the candidature of
General Muhammadu Buhari of the All Progressives Congress (APC) as far back
as January, reiterating that those who endorsed Jonathan lacked the mandate
to speak for the party.
The National Chairman dissociated the party from the purported press
conference convened alongside governor Mimiko in Akure in the name of the
party to endorse Jonathan for a second term.
“Since they are not card-carrying members of PDM, they do not speak for PDM
nor have any basis for doing so. While we wish them luck with their new project
of supporting President Goodluck Jonathan in the forthcoming election, we call
on them to desist from using the name of PDM in this obviously sponsored and
commercial misadventure. They should find another platform to realise their
aspiration since PDM is not for the highest bidder.
“The National Executive Committee of PDM had, at its meeting of January 22,
2015 unanimously, without any dissension, resolved to support the candidature
of General Muhammadu Buhari and our Party will stand by that commitment
until the end.
“Our members are already busy canvassing for support for Gen. Buhari across
the country and will not be distracted from doing so. These political jobbers
should please leave PDM out of their Jonathan-for-president misadventure”, the
statement read.

comrade E.A. Zik, in his contribution speaks on behalf of
Nigerian youth on the current situation in Nigeria. What issues worry young
people in anticipation of the presidential elections 2015? Are they craving for
change or satisfied with the present state of affairs?
It’s common knowledge that political atmosphere in Nigeria, especially on the
eve of the coming elections, can be characterized by accusations and counter-
accusations between the political parties in a bid to convince the unsuspecting
populace to vote in their favour.
When the parties behave responsibly during the elections, it makes the whole
process very interesting. When, however, the process is bastardized and all
tenets of responsibility and competition are abandoned, it comes to confuse
the average person how such ineptitude may happen in a democratic society.
Blatant lies, deception and threats pervading Nigerian politics baffles every
intelligent Nigerian. The impunity thereof is not even a topic to write about
anymore. We happen to be so used to it that even kids know that, when a
government official does something wrong, it is useless to report because it
may actually turn out to be the beginning of the reporter’s problems.
Their lies is deafening to the ears, the deception is childish. The question that
has been burning in my mind for a long time: are these people just insulting
our intelligence, or do they actually believe that Nigerians are blacked-out
dummies?
I think they believe we are dummies. Fools who they can just insult and buy
back with the money they stole from us.
In February, President Goodluck Jonathan visited Kogi state . A lot of people
were in attendance. I don’t know about others, but those in the bus we took
from Kogi state University were paid at least N3000 each to attend the rally.
What we all expected to be a life-changing event took an unexpected turn
when the President looked at the crowd and declared without mincing words
that “he” had dredged the river Niger and Kogi now has its own port.
I had to ask the people around me to confirm what I just heard. It was true.
He said he had dredged the Niger. I was shocked to the max, but it was
nothing compared to the anger that almost made me hit the roof.
Anyone living in Lokoja can confirm that the dredging program, started under
Yar’Adua, was stopped and the equipment was moved out immediately after
Jonathan had taken over in 2011. What I kept asking myself was, whether he
didn’t know he “hadn’t” dredged the river Niger. But how can you not know
what you have not done? This is the kind of insult I cannot take.
I don’t think Jonathan believes we are intelligent enough to know what is true
and what is false. His believes that the money he gives us (money which he
has stolen from us and paid us to shout for him) will shut our brains and
cover all rationality in us.
The rest of the day was spent with Jonathan’s cohorts telling us that
someone who did not lie to us the previous week (Buhari) would not be able
to deliver to if he came to office.
We are tired of your lies. We are fed up with your silver shekels. We won’t sell
our brothers because you’re returning what you have stolen from us. We are
much wiser now, and if some of our brothers are yet to become that wise, we
won’t betray them.
You’ve given us a federal university; thank you for doing your job. All the
billions we pay you annually is not a waste after all. However, I don’t see any
reason for justifying you after you’ve done just a little bit of what we are
paying for. All you have to do is give out the money you are holding and order
things to be done.
Another tragedy that has befallen Nigeria is the personality of Dame Patience.
There were rumours that our President Goodluck Jonathan was a weak
coward before his wife, and Dame Patience was the real president. I, as a
representative of manhood, stood strongly against peddlers of such rumours. I
thought that a man of Goodluck’s status could not be fooled by a woman.
Recent happenings, however, have proved my stand wrong. The insults and
slandering she has recently poured out to General Muhammadu Buhari in
Nigeria, where elders are treated with reverence, may be considered as insults
to the entire society. I wonder if Patience is secretly working against her
husband.

As for Okupe and others, no one is interested in your ranting anymore. Femi
Fani-Kayode, I’m sure you are already preparing your decamping speech. You
are always with the person in power. Obasanjo has already warned us of you.
Fayose, don’t get too comfortable. Emmanuel will soon come to Jerusalem.
The captives of Ekiti State will soon be free.
I’ll stop here to avoid the readers’ apathy. I won’t talk about the missing
money, murders, kidnappings and assassinations. I will not talk of blackmails,
economy and security issuesю These are the topics for another day.
Think like intelligent people and vote wisely.
God bless Nigeria, God bless us all.

A Borno-based Pastor, Kallamu Musa-Dikwa, who claimed that the money given to Pastors by the President Goodluck Jonathan was actually N7billion and not N6billion as alleged by Rivers State Governor, Rotimi Amaechi, has been secretly detained by the Department of State Services, DSS, Sunday Dare, Tinubu’s Media Aide tweeted
Dikwa’s allegation had caused a stir among the Christian clerics, with the Pentecostal Fellowship of Nigeria and the Northern State Christian Elders Forum asking him to name the church leaders, who collected the huge bribe.
Musa-Dikwa is the Executive Director of the Voice of Northern Christian Movement, told journalists in Kaduna about two weeks ago that the said money was channelled through the Christian Association of Nigeria.
Musa-Dikwa said the CAN got the said money (N7bn) on January 26, 2015 and disbursed N3m to each State Chairmen of the CAN across the country.
Musa-Dikwa, who was an Associate Pastor with the E. Y. N. Church, Farm Centre, Dikwa Road, Maiduguri, Borno State, under Rev. Emmanuel Kwajihe between 2002 and 2004, said the CAN had started threatening Christians in the state (Borno) that they must re-elect Jonathan in the rescheduled election.
“It was N7bn that was given to the CAN leadership by President Goodluck Jonathan. They (CAN) later disbursed N3m to the State Chairmen of the CAN,” Musa-Dikwa alleged
