Ohanaeze Ndigbo youths, Lagos State chapter have commended the management of Air Peace for blocking the Special Adviser to Lagos State governor on waste clearing, Joe Igbokwe from flying the airline.

In a statement issued on Thursday in Lagos, the chairman of the organization, Kelvin Onuma said that it served him right and urged other airlines to follow suit.

Mr Joe Igbokwe has said in a statement that AirPeace denied him from travelling through their airline. He claimed that he was blocked from travelling through the airline because he criticised the AirPeace.
Onuma said that Igbokwe should be treated as an outcast wherever he is seen.

According to him, Lagos State government knew where he belongs and that was why he was made Special Adviser on gutter clearing.

He said that Igbo groups should also follow the footstep of Air Peace by shunning him wherever he is seen.

“I read with delight the lamentation of the Special Adviser on gutter clearing, Joe Igbokwe that Air Peace blocked him from flying in their plane. As far as Ohanaeze youths are concerned, it is a commendable step because Mr Igbokwe is supposed to be treated as an outcast wherever he is seen. He has become the biggest burden of the Igbo in Diaspora in recent times. His thinking is that he can climb by tearing his people down and we have seen where he is today, Special Adviser on gutter cleaning. His paymasters really know his worth and where he belongs, in the gutter”.

The Ohanaeze Ndigbo youth leader said that Igbokwe should know as Chinua Achebe rightly declared in Things Fall Apart, nobody no matter his wisdom can win a judgement against his own people, adding that what he had succeeded in doing over the years is ridiculing himself and never the Igbo.

There are mixed feelings in Abia State over the Federal High Court sentence of the former governor of Abia State and current Senate Chief Whip, Orji Uzor Kalu to 12 years imprisonment.

Kalu had been standing trial alongside his firm, Slok Nigeria Limited, and Udeh Udeogu, who was Director of Finance and Accounts at the Abia State Government House during Kalu’s tenure as governor

Irukkanews reporters who visited some parts of the state said that while some people were happy with the judgement, others were very bitter.

The report has that in major streets in Umuahia and Aba people were seen in groups discussing the development.

Innocent Njoku, an indigene of Bende local government area who spoke with irukkanews in Umuahia said that it was a miscarriage of justice.

According to him, Senator Orji Uzor did not deserve what happened to him, going by all that he has done for APC in Abia State.
When he reminded that the case has been on before APC came on board, he said

“It then means that APC is a double-faced party. Did the National Chairman of APC, Adams Oshiomhole not say that once you join APC, all your sins are forgiven. I am sure that must be the reason why he left PDP to APC. But now, see the way they have treated him. When we say that this party cannot be trusted, some people misunderstand us. Now , everybody has seen it”.

He said that what happened to Senator Kalu is a temporary set back, as he would soon bounce back.

In his contribution, Chidinma Ukaegbu described the sentence as Daniel coming to judgement.

According to her, Orji Uzor Kalu and her mother wrecked Abia when they were in power.

She said that had it been that Kalu laid a good foundation, his successors would have capitalized on it and move the state forward like in the other states.

Her words;

“Well, what I want to say is that the judgement is deserved because of what Orji Uzor Kalu did to Abia State, what Rochas Okorocha did to Imo State and I know that one day it will also become the turn of Okorocha. No evil deed should go unpunished. The deplorable state that Abia is in now is because of Orji Uzor Kalu and his mother, the way they mismanaged the state. So, I feel that he should pay for his evil deeds”.

Must you make everything public.

They already made it public

The family of the 'late' Aston Villa and Bolton Wanderers defender, Jlloyd Samuel has made a shocking claim that his wife 'faked' his death in a car crash to cash in on insurance fraud.

Samuel died in May 2018 when his £100,000 Ranger Rover was involved in a collision with a van in Cheshire, but his sister Leslie-Ann believes he is still alive.

According to The Sun, Samuel's family will raise their concerns at an inquest into his death which is due to open on Tuesday, November 26, 2019.

The report also claimed that Samuel's family has complained that the coroner and Cheshire Police refused to allow the family to carry out their own DNA tests on remains found in the incinerated car.

Leslie-Ann Samuel, 39, posted a picture of a letter from the coroner's office which explained that her brother was identified from dental records and radiographs carried out at Warrington hospital two days after the crash. But they believe that Samuel wasn't at the wheel when he crashed into the van on a country road in High Legh when returning home after dropping his kids off at school.

She has since maintained that her brother is alive on several social media posts.

She wrote in two different posts: 'Jlloyd we WILL see you soon, in this life' and 'Jlloyd brother we know you are ALIVE and well and we know the DNA the pathologist have is not your DNA... 100%... Lies.'

A spokesman for Cheshire Police confirmed they had received a complaint from a member of the Samuel family regarding the inquest into his death.

They said:

'Her complaint was investigated thoroughly by senior officers who ruled that the investigation into Mr. Samuel's death was proportionate, timely and of the standard required.

'These conclusions were verified in a peer review by an independent police force. As such, the complaint was not upheld.

'The family member has been informed of this and of the conclusions reached following the investigation into her complaint.

'She was given a 28-day period in which they could appeal the decision, but no appeal was received.'

Jlloyd Samuel who played for Aston Villa and Bolton Wanderers is survived by his wife Emma, an interior designer and three children.

President Muhammadu Buhari has congratulated Yahaya Bello on his re-election as Governor of Kogi State while commending INEC and security agencies for “discharging their responsibilities under difficult conditions.”

The President tweeted his congratulations on Monday after INEC announced Bello as the winner of the Kogi elections, which was marred with reports of violence, according to observers.

However, Buhari noted that it “was a race well run and a victory well won.”

“I urge him (Bello) to see his renewed mandate as another opportunity to build on the foundations already laid towards improving the lives of the people of Kogi State,” the President said.

“I commend INEC & security agencies for discharging their responsibilities under difficult conditions. The violence that took place, and loss of lives, by thugs doing the bidding of their political sponsors, is condemnable. There is no room in our democracy for electoral violence.

“I commiserate with the families and loved ones of all those who lost their lives. All political actors and stakeholders must take deliberate steps to eschew electoral violence as a peaceful and orderly process is vital to our quest for enduring democracy.

“Let me enjoin Governor Bello to imbibe the spirit of magnanimity in victory by extending a hand of partnership to opposition candidates, and also ask that all those dissatisfied with the outcome of the election should, in seeking redress, approach the courts.”

The Social Democratic Party, SDP, governorship candidate in Kogi State, Natasha Akpoti, has alleged that Yahaya Bello ordered her assassination.

She made this statement via her official twitter page saying “Gov Yahaya Bello has ordered for my assassination.”

Recall that Akpoti on Sunday called for the cancellation of the ongoing gubernatorial election in Kogi Central and part of Lokoja, the state capital. Akpoti said that “what happened in Kogi Central and other parts of the state was a far cry from a credible election,” hence the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, should cancel the elections and conduct a rerun.

She made the call in a statement she personally signed and issued on Sunday. According to Akpoti: “Ballot boxes were destroyed and burnt in Okene, Adavi, Ajaokuta, and Ogori Magongo and Okehi Local government areas and other parts of the state.” She added that her party’s official agents were tied and intimidated.
