Edo Guber: @OfficialPDPNig Backs Gov Fintiri, @GovernorAUF Insists Its Candidate, Asue Ighodalo @Aighodalo Won the Poll
The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) stands by the results of the Edo State Governorship election as garnered by its polling agents across the State and echoed by the Chairman of the Edo PDP National Campaign Council, Governor Ahmadu Fintiri of Adamawa State which indicate that the PDP candidate, Dr. Asue Ighodalo clearly won the election.
The PDP asserts that the rush, venom and hauling of insults with which the All Progressives Congress (APC) @OfficialAPCNg attacked Governor Fintiri only confirms APC’s violent desperation to cover its manipulations and steal the mandate freely given to Dr. Asue Ighodalo by the people of Edo State as reflected in the genuine votes cast at the Polling Units.
As Governor Fintiri presented, the results collated from the Polling Units have Asue Ighodalo in clear lead before the State collation exercise was hijacked by the APC which, in connivance of some unscrupulous INEC and security officials, engaged in blatant alteration and substitution of the genuine results with fabricated figures in favour of the defeated APC candidate.
The PDP had on several occasions alerted Nigerians of this sinister plot by the APC which will be firmly resisted as the APC and its candidate Monday Okpebholo were thoroughly defeated in the election.
The PDP in the strongest terms cautions the APC and INEC not to announce or declare any result that does not reflect the Will of the people as expressed at the Polling Units. Such will be a recipe for a huge crisis in the State as the people of Edo State will never allow their mandate in illegitimate hands.
Our Party again cautions INEC not to lose sight of the violent protest that trailed the criminal attempt by the former Adamawa State Resident Electoral Commissioner, Mallam Hudu Ari to alter the outcome of the 2023 Governorship election in that State which nearly led to the death of some INEC officials.
Any attempt to change the results of the Edo State governorship election and allocate victory to a defeated candidate will provoke worse consequences.
INEC must therefore do that which is right in the interest of peace, stability and sustenance of Democracy in Nigeria.
In its continued bid to maximise the nation’s abundant gas resources for economic development and prosperity, NNPC Ltd. has begun discussions with investors towards bringing back two Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) projects, Brass and Olokola LNG projects.
NNPC Ltd.’s Chief Financial Officer (CFO), Mr. Umar Ajiya disclosed this on the sidelines of the ongoing 2024 Gas Technology Conference and Exhibition (Gastech), in Houston, United States, on Thursday.
Brass LNG and OK LNG are two LNG projects with the potential of manifold economic benefits for the country which include job creation, power generation, revenue generation and economic diversification. The multi-billion-dollar projects were however stalled due to unfavourable market dynamics and slow decision-making by the political class in the past.
"In the past, gas prices went down, the economics of the projects meant a high Capital Expenditure (CAPEX), and this was a dis-incentive for investors and partners. Also, there was slow decision-making by the political class," the CFO added.
While describing NNPC Ltd. as a commercially driven Company which recognises timely project development and execution, the CFO said there are abundant gas resources in many parts of the world and therefore, the earlier Nigeria makes smart decisions to bring partners to the table, the better.
Ajiya commended President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for his support in driving new projects in the Industry through the Presidential Executive Orders on Oil & Gas Reforms.
"We are also happy to have the Petroleum Industry Act, 2021 (PIA) which has provided fiscal incentives for investors and is creating the enabling environment that has rekindled hope in the energy sector."
Ajiya described Gastech as an avenue for NNPC Ltd. to learn new technologies which will help the Company decarbonise its operations and promote its abundant LNG resources to the global market.
Gastech is the world’s leading forum dedicated to delivering a more sustainable energy future by bringing together experts who brainstorm to create pathways towards global energy security for lasting climate impact.

daveP: No friendlies for us to even test all newbie team
Na this time we suppose dey line up such. I hate the thinking process of nff all the way. Sport administrators in Latvia>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
I don't expect that we'll have any matches till next year. This is what the NFF usually do.
We'll have a major competition, the coach will leave after the competition, we won't have any official matches for months, so the NFF won't appoint a coach and there will be no friendly matches.
That's what happened between November 2016 and mid-2018, it happened again after the 2019 World Cup (and after we failed to qualify for the Olympics) and I think that's what's going to happen now.

Bashir the man you called an illiterate is BSc holder faa?
Your father is a public figure,an administrator of repute,an achiever,a progressive for that matter,one of the founding father of APC and outstanding public servant.
I know you and Mallam are two different people and I understand you're not a member of a APC but coming out unequivocally to endorsed opposition party candidate when your respected father and working brother (Bello) are member of APC will create bad perception.
❗️Arsenal made several offers for Keira Walsh this summer, with their latest bid nearly doubling the initial one.
➡️ Despite Walsh’s intention not to renew her contract, Barça has resisted letting her go due to the lack of a suitable replacement in the market.
— @MariaTikas
[quote author=naptu2 post=131984633]Keira Walsh is trending because there are rumours that she's moving to Arsenal, but she's in Barcelona's squad to play Real Sociedad today and the transfer market closes in England today.
However, the rumours won't go away and people are now saying that she might leave for free next summer.
