The Imo State House of Assembly has resolved to investigate all road executed in the state between year 2011 to 2019, Igbere TV reports.

Igbere TV reports that the Senator representing Imo West, Rochas Okorocha, was the governor in office between the 2011 to 2019.

Media aide to Speaker of the Imo Assembly, Collins Chiji, made the resolution known in a statement sent to Igbere TV on Monday.

He said the House took the resolution after reviewing activities that took place in the Assembly between Monday, 15th July to Friday, 26th July.

According to him, “the House deliberated a motion to set up an investigative committee to ascertain circumstances surrounding the award of road contracts in the state from 2011 to 2019.”

He went further to state that the House “resolved to set up an investigative committee to interface with the Ministry of Works to ascertain inter alia:

“• The contractors/companies who were awarded these road projects
• The terms of such contracts
• Invite the contractors to appear before the investigative committee, with the award letters of such contracts, bill of engineering measurement and evidence/mode of payments in respect to said projects
• Find out from the contractors reason the road construction works were either poorly executed, uncompleted and some not even executed.”

Controversial Nigerian blogger, Mrs Kemi Olunloyo, has called for the sack of Stephanie Busari, the Supervising Producer of Cable News Network (CNN) Africa, over Twitter comments.

Igbere TV reports that Busari had challenged Blogger Olunloyo to provide evidence of working for the company for two decades.

Busari’s challenge came after the Blogger claimed that she has 20-year history with the US based popular cable station.

“Some of these fools following me have no idea I spent 20 years @cnn in 5 different capacities. They don’t even know that the CNN they watch here is not exact same as CNN USA”, Olunloyo wrote, while berating her followers for doubting her credentials.

Reacting, however, the CNN chief, Busari said; “I have not seen any evidence of this work for CNN beyond a few rambling interviews for some of the shows in 2009. Please enlighten me @HNNAfrica on your 20 year history with CNN.”

The response, however, did not go down well with the Blogger who insisted that the CNN producer must apologize to her for being unruly. This is even as Nigerians continued to drag Olunloyo on Twitter to back up her claims with proof.

Moments later, the controversial Blogger took to Twitter to request for apology or removal of Busari from the cable network.

She wrote; “@CNNPR I am requesting an apology or REMOVAL of @stephaniebusari from the African bureau on my history at the Cable News Network since 1994. If contributors "rambled", ppl like @AprilDRyan won't be working @cnn today or poor content dominates.

“Busari was 17yrs in high school when I was 30yrs, approached by CNN Medical in DC while I was the Director of a satellite outpatient pharmacy @HopkinsMedicine in East Baltimore to do a RAVE drugs story. Her attempt to disgrace my work history in the eyes of Nigerians is disgraceful.

“As @camanpour said, we journalists are not supposed to take sides or be neutral. WE ARE SUPPOSED to come only for the truth. When viral ireporters, contributors, partners, p/t employees are ridiculed, CNN has no content. I expect a reply tweeted or sent to my DM. Thank you.”

She subsequently attached an open letter to the tweet via Instagram.

It read:

“Now comes @cnnafrica Correspondent #StephanieBusari who's shameless attempt to discredit my 20 year work history in 5 capacities @cnn FAILED. When I started contributing my talents to CNN starting 1994-2014 as a content producer, viral ireporter, guest expert and contributor at Larry King Live (as the only Nigerian reporter on that show twice) American Morning, AC360, CNN.com, Now defunct CNN Radio, CNN Medical in Washington now CNN Health, Busari was in secondary school at 17yo. Ignorance does not excuse stupidity. I have worked for & in the Washington, New York, Los Angeles bureaus as well as CNN Center and world headquarters in Atlanta. It is untotally called for to engage my resume/CV history on her work platform because of her failure to get the Dakolo story on air. I understand how many people are sympathetic to Busola Dakolo's fabricated story but keep emotions out of it. Journalists must come for the truth not be neutral. I am the only reporter investigating this delicate story with a web of falsehood that you reporters with big Media outlets should be doing. Something similar happened with Morayo Afolabi Brown of TVC last week as well questioning my battle with #PTSD. The damage is so extensive that I cannot fix it anymore. More and more people are using it against me questioning my work. I forgave Morayo knowing what can happen at TVC to avoid a firing bloodbath over there. Media professionals must be careful in this sensitive rape case. I will be in touch with CNN Public relations later this afternoon to file a complaint calling Atlanta, USA. I'm not a Busola or Biodun sympathizer. I'm only standing for the truth. PERIOD! #kemitalksmedia #kemiolunloyo #IJCoza #Nigeria #kemiolunloyo #cozapastor #cozaabuja #cozagate #pastorstepdown #pastorbiodunfatoyinbo #biodunfatoyinbo #BusolaDakolo #TimDakolo #HOTR #IJKemi”

Igbere TV reports that Olunloyo had come under fire recently for accusing wife of singer Timi Dakolo, Busola of lying about her rape accusations against the Senior Pastor of Commonwealth of Zion Assembly (COZA), Biodun Fatoyinbo.

Olunloyo, daughter of former Oyo state governor, Omololu Olunloyo, said she came to the conclusion that Dakolo was lying after investigations, which some social media users scoffed at.

There was chaos at the Seventh Day Adventist church, in Nairobi, on Saturday, after a faction of aggrieved members stormed the church to beat up the Head Pastor, Jean Pierre-Maywa, Igbere TV reports.

Igbere TV gathered that the fight occurred when some senior members alongside the pastor, gathered to discuss the fate of the faction known as Nairobi Cosmopolitan Conference (NCC), that wants to split from the church.

Prior to the fight, Igbere TV learnt that the NCC had lost a court case it instituted to challenge the church’s leadership.

The reconciliation meeting started off with shout matches which led to a fight minutes later.

In a video obtained by Igbere TV, some congregants were spotted shouting while others took to the altar to defend the pastor from further assault.

The meeting was called off after the police stormed the church and restored peace by using tear gas canister.

Here is a video from the scene below;

GENERAL Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, Pastor Enoch Adejare Adeboye yesterday reiterated his position on key national issues and the overall well-being of Nigeria.

In a statement released by head of RCCG Public Relations, Pastor Olaitan Olubiyi yesterday at the National Headquarters of the Church, he reaffirmed his commitment to the umbrella Christian organizations that are mandated to speak on issues affecting the Church and the nation as a whole.

He stated, as in the past, that the views of the Pentecostal Fellowship of Nigeria (PFN) and Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) represented his position and that of the RCCG.

Pastor Adeboye, himself a one-time President of PFN, noted that the aforementioned Christian bodies had spoken on the issues of kidnapping, killing of Christians, herdsmen attacks and general insecurity in Nigeria and that his position and that of the RCCG was not different from their expressed views.

Besides, as a Pastor and spiritual father to millions of people in Nigeria and across the world, he regularly leads the congregation to pray over the problems confronting the nation at all major programmes of the Church.

Adeboye who said that, to be quiet does not mean that you are silent, disclosed that he had made his views on the issues known to all the relevant authorities. He declared that very soon, Nigerians shall see that God answers prayers. He enjoined all to remain calm and maintain the peace.

The RCCG leader had always called the congregation to prayers against kidnapping, bloodshed and general insecurity at the monthly all-night Holy Ghost Service held at the Redemption Camp. For instance, at the July Holy Ghost Service, Pastor Adeboye led the congregation in supplication for God’s mercy on Nigeria after speaking on the negative consequences of bloodshed and inhumanity. That was four days before a group of students and youths under the leadership of some notable artistes like Baba Fryo, Charley Boy and Eedris Abdulkarim came to the Redemption Camp.

According to the group, they had come to show their unhappiness with his supposed silence over killings of Christians, establishment of cattle camps called RUGA and kidnapping in the country.

“President @MBuhari congratulates the @NGSuperEagles for another spectacular outing that has confirmed Nigeria’s progress to the Next Level in the Africa Cup of Nations (#AFCON) Egypt 2019. #NGARSA

“With a well-deserved victory over the Bafana Bafana of South Africa, President Buhari believes, like millions of other sports-loving Nigerians, that the mission of having the trophy in our hands for the fourth time is almost accomplished for the high flying Eagles.

“The President urges the team and their handlers to remain focused, disciplined and scale the remaining two hurdles to glory.

“He affirms that the crop of players in the national football team represent the resilient and indomitable Nigerian spirit, which must be reflected in all other areas of national life.

“PMB assures the players that Nigerians are praying for them to fly higher and get to the peak of the tournament, knowing that the taste of victory is sweet and what they have achieved so far is pleasing to Nigerians irrespective of ethnic, religious or political inclination.”

“The Nigeria Association Of Yoruba Pig Farmers (NAYPF) in view of its expanding pig business and with effort to increase pork meat to beef up protein in Nigeria, humbly demand from Mr. President the Presidential support to create for the NAYPF 10 hectares of land space each in all the 19 Northern States for our proposed PIG COLONY where in Yoruba Farmers who engage in Pig Farming can settle for the rearing of their pigs in a modern piggery system to be coordinated by China Farmers.

“This request is very important as it will engage many youths across various tribes who will be employed in this farming project to inter-marry and inter-commerce which will consequently strengthen the unity and economy base of Nigeria.

“Funds for this project has been sourced and are readily available from voluntary donations from members and good will Nigerians.

“Additionally Mr President, we the members of the NIGERIA ASSOCIATION OF YORUBA PIG FARMERS (NAYPF) have contracted the service of a Chinese firm YUNGSHAIN AGROPETS to the tune of N23 Billion for the establishment of a Pork Oil Company factory in Abuja where most of the pork will be used for oil production and export same to improve our economy.

“Mr President I have the pleasure to inform you likewise that the association is concluding plans to meet you to shed more lights on any grey areas in this letter (if invited to do so).

“We look forward to your prompt response and the attention of the Federal Ministry of Agriculture in this respect.”
