PoliticsMinister Slams APC For Opposing Obanikoro’s Ministerial Appointment by macpetrus(op): 11:18am On Mar 10, 2015
The Minister of State for Works, Dayo Adeyeye, has chided the All Progressives Congress, APC, for the party’s opposition to the appointment of Musiliu Obanikoro as a minister, saying the party was becoming too irritating in its desperation for power.

The minister, who said in a statement issued in Ado-Ekiti on Sunday, that Mr. Obanikoro never participated in the rigging of any election, added that “Ekiti people wholeheartedly voted for Governor Ayodele Fayose and no amount of falsehood and propaganda can erode that fact.

“Even the United States said the election result reflected the will of Ekiti’s voters and that the security forces collaborated effectively and provided a safe and secure environment free of major incidents.”

Mr. Adeyeye said it was becoming more worrisome the way the APC elements go about trying to pull down any individual or organisation that refused to be corrupted by them.

He said; “assuming but not conceding that the audio tape they are talking about is real, there’s nothing in it to suggest that soldiers were told to rig the election. What I heard was people showing
apprehension on the need to prevent APC thugs from operating and money from being shared at the polling units.

“If one may ask, was it soldiers and Obanikoro that made the APC to lose in more than 80 per cent of the polling units in Ekiti State?”

The minister said APC was only showing its fear for Obanikoro because of his political influence in Lagos and across the Southwest by kicking against his ministerial appointment.

He challenged the party to take the audio clip to court instead of going about passing verdict of guilty on innocent Nigerians who only refused to be corrupted by the party.

“The truth is that APC cannot operate under a credible environment. Once the party is against an institution, be sure that such an institution has refused to be corrupted.

“That was the reason they went on the streets of Abuja in November 2013, calling for the removal of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) Chairman, Prof Attahiru Jega because the party lost
the Anambra State Governorship election.

“Interestingly, the same APC that wanted Jega sacked in 2013 are now the apostle of ‘Jega must not be sacked’ apparently because they perceived the INEC boss as doing their bidding,” Mr. Adeyeye said.

PoliticsFani-kayode, Shettima In Hot Exchanges Over Chibok Girls by macpetrus(op): 10:13am On Mar 10, 2015
We want our daughters, not rebuilt school —Parents

THE Director of Media and Publicity of Peoples Democratic Party Campaign Organisation (PDPCO), Chief Femi Fani-Kayode and the Borno State governor, Alhaji Kashim Shettima, on Monday, exhanged heated words over the 219 schoolgirls abducted by Boko Haram sect at Chibok, Borno State.

Fani-Kayode had threatened that the governor may face prosecution for ignoring security report and counsel from the Federal Government against holding the 2014 May/June West African Examinations Council (WAEC) examinations in Chibok.

But the governor, in his reaction, dispelled the threat from Fani-Kayode, whom he described as only seeking media attention, adding that the report of the presidential fact-finding committee on the missing schoolgirls actually absolved him from any blame.

This came as some of the parents of the abducted schoolgirls and concerned members of Chibok community, on Monday, condemned the recent visit by the Federal Government officials to Chibok, insisting that what they are after is the return of their missing children.

In a statement issued by Sufuyan Ojeifo, Special Assistant to Fani-Kayode, in Abuja, on Monday, the PDPCO spokesman said the abducted Chibok schoolgirls would have been saved the ordeal to which they had been subjected these past 329 days had the governor taken the advice and acted in accordance with the security reports that the town was not safe for the examinations.

He, therefore, served notice to Governor Shettima to be ready for investigation and prosecution after leaving office if found complicit in the circumstances that led to the abduction of the girls.

According to the statement, “Shettima will not be governor forever and when he is no longer in office, his role in the Chibok affair would be investigated and, if found wanting, he would be prosecuted.”

He accused the governor of reflecting the thinking of his party, the All Progressives Congress (APC) over the whole Chibok abductions that “his insensitivity allowed to happen.”

According to the statement, “the circumstances that led to the abduction of the innocent girls, who were writing their examination in an environment that was everything but secure, underscored the governor’s negligence.

“The governor must give account to God and to the Nigerian people for what he has done to those girls. We are accusing him of being responsible for the abduction of the Chibok girls, because he was warned by the Federal Government and by WAEC not to allow the examination to take place in Chibok.

“He ignored the warning and promised to guarantee security for those girls. When time came, the governor did not even deploy one policeman, let alone adequate security.

“In any other country, this man would have been arrested and prosecuted for collaborating with Boko Haram. But here, in Nigeria, instead of him showing remorse, he went all over the world attacking the president and the Federal Government over the Chibok affair. Those he was speaking to did not know that he, more than anybody else, was responsible for the abduction of those girls.”

Reacting , Shettima said Fani-Kayode contradicted himself by making the assertion as he had earlier pronounced a different group guilty over the Chibok girls’ saga.

Further referring the president’s spokesperson to the findings of the committee, which gave him a clean bill as reported in a national newspaper, Shettima urged Fani-Kayode to speak with facts and not ignorance.

“Long before Fani-Kayode was appointed, his employer and our dear president, Goodluck Jonathan, had, in 2014, set up a presidential fact-finding committee on the missing Chibok schoolgirls, which was made up of serving and retired security officials, civil societies, elders from Chibok, the Christian Association of Nigeria, Muslims, journalists, labour groups, the National Council on Women Societies and many others, with the mandate of establishing facts concerning the circumstances that led to the kidnap of the schoolgirls.

“After being in Borno State for nearly two weeks, the committee was in Chibok and met with all those it marked as stakeholders. The committee met all security chiefs in Borno State, met officials of WAEC in Borno, met virtually everybody and analysed documents, at the end, from what a national newspaper reported on the findings of the committee, it gave a clean bill to Governor Shettima, as he was rather a traumatised victim doing so well in managing the security challenges in the state.

“Fani-Kayode that is seated in Abuja and issuing statement didn’t have the patriotism to follow President Jonathan on his recent visit to liberated communities, at least to be on record that he was once in Borno State. He sits and speaks with so much arrogance and ignorance.

“But like I said yesterday, we don’t take Fani-Kayode serious and nobody does in Nigeria. He had pronounced a different group guilty over Chibok girls long before now, so if he reverse himself over that like he contradicted many others, there is nothing new. He is only begging to be reported on newspapers and shown on television screen with the soul aim of creating an impression that he is working,” Shettima added.

While addressing journalists at the Borno State Hotels in Maiduguri, the Borno State capital, the chairman, caretaker committee in Chibok Council Area, Mallam Ba’ana Lawan, accused the Federal Government of making several promises to rescue the 219 abducted schoolgirls to no avail.

At the meeting, which was attended by hundreds of Chibok people residents in Maiduguri, the council chairman also expressed dismay over the move to rebuild Government Girls Secondary School, Chibok, which was destroyed by the insurgents after abducting the schoolgirls, stressing that the traumatised parents and the entire people of Chibok community only wanted their children back home.

“It is disheartening to inform you that since the abduction of these girls, the Federal Government did not bother to send delegations to Chibok to sympathise with the parents, instead, they were invited to Abuja and conveyed in cargo military plane with no comfort whatsoever.

“We still observed that recently, President Goodluck Jonathan visited Mubi and Baga, but failed to visit Chibok to sympathise with our people.

“We also observed that the president and the Chief of Defence Staff, Air Vice Marshal Alex Badeh, had severally promised that these girls would soon be released, but is it is now more than 300 days, and nothing of such had happened.

“We thank God and appreciate Governor Kashim Shettima and his wife, Nana, who did not only visited Chibok when the incident took place, but also secured admission for the 59 schoolgirls that escaped from the Boko Haram to study in various schools in the country and all assistance he has rendered to the parents.

“It is most unfortunate that Chibok Local Government Area have witnessed six different attacks by insurgents and about 300 people lost their lives with property worth millions of naira destroyed, hundreds of houses razed, as well as food and cash crops looted.

“The most recent attacks being that of Gatamwarwa, Kautikari and other surrounding villages, where several lives were equally lost. Yet there was no response from the Federal Government.

“We, therefore, condemned the Federal Government for, instead of bringing back our girls as severally promised, it decided to embark on the reconstruction of the school.” Lawan stated.

He, however, appreciated the persistence of the #BRINGBACKOURGIRLS group in Abuja and the media, who had been pressurising the Federal Government to intensify effort in rescuing the innocent girls.
