Politics / Governor Ambode Is Fulfilling His Campaign Promises - PDP by metronaija: 9:13pm On Jun 16, 2016
The Lagos state chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has congratulated Governor Akinwunmi Ambode of Lagos state on his 53rd birthday.

The party said the Lagos state Governor is doing a good job, adding that he is making sure his campaign promises are fulfilled.

The PDP also commended Ambode for using his birthday celebration to raise funds for the treatment of cancer patients.

The spokesman of the PDP in Lagos state, Gani Taofik said “The PDP opines that the governor has attempted to justify his election.

“Observing these attempts, such as in the area of road rehabilitation with pedestrian bridge construction, we will give the governor the benefit of the doubt that he is serious about serving the general interest and not parochial or APC interest as his predecessor did.

“We will keep a tab on his governance and commend or condemn same as applicable. In this period of his birthday celebration, we want to commend him and hope that he sees this assessment as a challenge for him to perform better.”

Taofik also added that “The PDP wishes the governor good health, sound mind and, above all, the fear of God necessary for him to be responsive, productive and just to all. Happy birthday and many happy returns.

“More disturbing to us is that the governor’s lowest point at this time is his neglect to conduct election into the local government councils. This is long overdue. He should allow the Lagos State Independent Electoral Commission to announce the election date this week to serve as his birthday gift to Lagosians.”

Lagos State Governor, Akinwunmi Ambode turned 53 on Tuesday, June 14, 2016.

Politics / Why We Freezes Bank Accounts- EFCC by metronaija: 3:33pm On Jun 13, 2016
According to the press statement released by the anti-graft commission.


In recent times, a lot of interest has been generated by the action of the Commission in freezing the accounts of suspects that were investigated or are currently being investigated. Some commentators have tended to ascribe vindictive motives to this action


In order to prevent misinformation, it is imperative to explain the reason behind the Commission’s actions in this regard.


Freezing of accounts suspected of being used for commission of financial crimes is a mandatory investigative step backed by law.

Politics / Oyo State Declares Monday As Public Holiday by metronaija: 1:48pm On Jun 12, 2016
Oyo State Governor, Senator Abiola Ajimobi, has declared Monday, June 13, as public holiday in commemoration of the annulment of the June 12, 1993, Presidential Election.

A statement by the Special Adviser, Communication and Strategy to the Governor, Mr. Yomi Layinka, conveyed the governor’s decision, on Sunday.

June 12 remains a watershed in the history of the country, because of the significance of the day in the nation’s democratic journey, having broken all ethnic and religious barriers.

The annulled election is yet to be matched in terms of freeness, fairness, transparency, openness and widespread acceptability.

Much as the electoral umpire that midwifed subsequent elections had tried, the annulled election remains the best in terms of organization and no system adopted for the conduct of subsequent elections is yet to match Option A4 used to conduct the June 12 election.

Besides, the resolve of Nigerians to put aside their differences and troop out en masse to collectively vote for a positive change was a demonstration of the fact that Nigerians were not ready to negotiate the unity of the country even in the face of diversity.

That the symbol of the annulled election, Chief MKO Abiola, opted to pay the supreme price to defend his mandate has deepened democracy and the price he paid is what the comfort the political leaders are enjoying up till today.

I want to, once again, urge the Federal Government to immortalize and officially recognize Abiola as a former president of the Federal Republic of Nigeria and to confer on him the highest honour in the land befitting of a former president.

Political leaders should be prepared to leave their comfort zones and be prepared to make sacrifices to defend the democracy we are enjoying today and should not allow parochial interest to overshadow the collective interest of the electorate.

There is no doubt that Abiola won the election, despite failed attempts by those that contested the election with him to twist facts and re-write history.

We must keep the memory of Abiola alive and the least we can do is to continue to commemorate the day and bring out its fond memories as a lesson in electoral transparency and openness.

We should not forget him as he remains one of the greatest martyrs this country has ever produced, so that generations yet unborn will know that somebody laid down his life in defence of democracy and the rule of law.

His death in custody of the then Federal Government is known to God and may his soul continue to rest in perfect peace.
