Author and TV host, Reno Omokri, has condemned the Paris attacks while urging Africans and Asians to set themselves free from mental slavery.

The former media aide to President Goodluck Jonathan, said it is a display of low self esteem for Africans and Asians to put French flags on their profile as a result of the Paris attacks when they do not put their own nation’s flag on their profile when terrorists attack their own nations.
“Terrorism is evil and condemnable. But we should not only cry when it happens in rich nations. We should treat it the same wherever it occurs. I sympathize with France, but why are Africans and Asians putting French flags on their profile when they do not put their own nation’s flag on their profile when terrorists attack their own nations? Are French lives more precious than their own brothers and sisters who are killed daily by home grown terrorists like the satanic Boko Haram and Al Shabab,” he queried.

The New Media savvy preacher, added that Africans and Asians should stop worshiping the Europeans.
“Africans and Asians should remember the words of Bob Marley and “emancipate yourself from mental slavery”. Terrorism is bad everywhere and not just in Paris. In every area of our lives we exhibit this low self esteem. We celebrate and worship European soccer and denigrate our own leagues. Now we sympathize with European victims of terror and are indifferent to our own victims. In Nigeria there are 1.5 million citizens displaced by terror. Cry for them first my brothers and sisters,” he said on his Facebook post.
The flag of France has adorned Facebook profile of many across the world in solidarity with France over the Paris attacks.

The Governor of Ekiti State, Mr Ayodele Fayose on Sunday stated that the proposed local government elections in the state would hold despite threats by members of the opposition to boycott the exercise.

According to Fayose, for the country to have virile and functional local government system, the third tier of government would have to be strengthened for effective delivery of democratic dividends to the people.
“Electoral Act is very clear, boycott of election doesn’t nullify the outcome of any election. Just like I have said, we will not compromise anything. We shall allow the people to choose who to govern them”, he said.
“Not everybody can come to Ado-Ekiti to see the governor, but people at local level can readily relate with council bosses. Moreover, the state cannot do all things, it is the local government that will complement that.
“We are therefore committed to a virile local government system and we are going to hold local government elections in this state by December 19 this year by the grace of God.
“If it is only one political party that is ready to take part in the poll, no problem. Boycotting election has never been used to annul elections in the country”, Governor Fayose added

The State Independent Electoral Commission, had slated the council elections for December19, 2015, while nomination forms have been sold to interested parties for councillorship and chairmanship positions.

The national leadership of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has began talks with prominent political leaders from the northern part of the country ahead of the 2019 presidential election.
Punch reports PDP is hoping to win its former big wigs with an offer of the party’s presidential ticket.
PDP recently announced that it had zoned its presidential ticket to the north.

It was gathered that members of the National Working Committee of the party had been having meetings with notable politicians who defected from the PDP to the APC.

Among those being wooed are the Senate President, Dr. Bukola Saraki, Speaker of the House of Representatives, Yakubu Dogara, a former Governor of Kano State, Sen. Rabiu Kwankwaso, former Governor of Jigawa State, Sule Lamido and Governor Aminu Tambuwal of Sokoto State.
National Publicity Secretary of the PDP, Olisa Metuh, confirmed the secret meetings the leadership of the party had been having with its former members.

Metuh, who told Punch that he was partaking in such meetings, said it would be premature to mention those who were contacted to return to their former party.
But he said the party was only considering those he said have electoral values and had yet to constantly condemn the party and everything it stood for in the past.

Metuh said, “Yes, I can confirm that we have opened discussions with our former members who left us due to misunderstandings and were aggrieved. We are already having meetings with them and I can assure you that the discussions are going to yield positive results.
“But for the fact that some of these gentlemen are holding sensitive positions in the APC and in government, we won’t be able to mention their names.
“They are not happy with the Federal Government and some of its policies and they have decided to team up with us come 2019.”
Also, PDP might have settled for the Deputy Senate President, Dr. Ike Ekweremadu as its vice presidential candidate.
Ekweremadu is the party’s highest ranking political office holder.
His zone, the South-East and the South-South, are the major base of the PDP

Rivers State Chapter of the All Progressives Congress, APC, on Saturday alleged that the state governor, Ezebunwo Nyesom Wike is trying to secure another N10 billion loan from banks under the pretence of using it for infrastructural development.

In a statement issued in Port Harcourt by the party’s Publicity Secretary, Chris Finebone, the party said it got wind of Wike’s latest move through a socio-political organization, the Rivers Progressives Forum, RPF, that alleged that the governor had written several letters to banks, mounting pressure on them to grant his requests.
The statement reads, “This development was brought to the attention of the APC by the Rivers Progressive Forum (RPF), an organisation that pursues the advancement of Good Governance in Rivers State and the advancement of the welfare of Rivers people.

“The APC is shocked that despite the outcry against the incessant borrowing by the Wike-led administration in Rivers State, this time around the governor and his people have written, pressurising banks to ‘waive all legal and regulatory provisions designed to prevent abuse of the process and the use of the State’s Monthly Excess Crude Account allocation as collateral.

“The Rivers State Government is defying all known decency in financial discipline by particularly asking the banks for a waiver of the State Fiscal Responsibility Laws amongst others. The APC is happy that the RPF has in its possession and is about to publish copies of the rogue letters written by the Wike government to banks requesting for the loan and pressurising them for various waivers in what the RPF refers to as ‘borrowing Rivers people into perpetual penury.”

Good

How u take know

Governor Ayodele Fayose of Ekiti State has called on Nigerians to hold President Muhammadu Buhari responsible should anything happen to the former National Security Adviser, NSA, Col Sambo Dasuki, rtd.

This was contained in a statement released by the Special Assistant to the governor on Public Communications and New Media, Lere Olayinka on Friday.
Fayose was quoted in the statement as saying, “The Department of State Services, DSS, placement of the former NSA under house arrest despite court order that his international passport be released so that he can travel abroad for medical treatment is wicked, inhuman, dictatorial and a clear attempt to deny him of his rights to life as enshrined in the Constitution of Nigeria.”

Hailing the Friday’s ruling by the Abuja Federal High Court, ordering the DSS to allow Dasuki to travel out of the country for medical treatment, Fayose noted, “Nigerians, especially men of the judiciary must join hands to shake dictatorship off the body of President Buhari and his hatchet man, Alhaji Lawal Daura.”

He expressed his happiness in the fact that Justice Ademola Adeniyi, insisted that court order be obeyed and must not be flouted.
“Nigerians, who fought late General Sanni Abacha to a standstill will fight this emerging Buhari’s ‘militocracy,’ which is a clear threat to our hard-earned democracy,” Fayose pointed out.

Fayose further pointed out that the action of the DSS has vindicated his earlier position that the Director General of DSS, Lawal Daura who hails from the same place as President Buhari, was being used as an instrument of political persecution.

According to Fayose, the Director General of DSS could be likened to Mohammed Lawal Rafindadi, of the Nigerian Security Organisation, NSO, that was also used by Buhari as instrument of political persecution between 1984 and 1985.

Fayose said President Buhari should be informed that the Nigeria of 1984 that he ruled like a fiefdom is not the same in 2015.
“President Buhari seized late Chief Obafemi Awolowo international passport and prevented him from travelling abroad for medicare in 1985, thereby leading to Awolowo untimely death of 1987.
“Buhari also hounded former Bayelsa State Governor, Diepreye Alamieyeseigha to death all in the name of fighting perceived political opponents.
“Therefore, it has become necessary to raise the alarm that nothing must happen to Dasuki.
“The fate that befell Awolowo in 1985 must not be allowed to befall Sambo Dasuki in 2015 and Nigerians must rise against this Buhari’s dictatorship and his instrument of oppression, Lawal Daura,” Fayose said.

Governor Ayodele Fayose of Ekiti State, has reiterated his position to continue to tell he truth to the leadership of President Muhammadu Buhari and his party, the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), noting that ”The President is not God, but only leader of our country for a period of time.”
Speaking with journalists on Friday, after the Ekiti State House of Assembly declared him the ‘leader’ of the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Fayose affirmed that as a member of the opposition, he was not expected to be celebrating the government in power.

“For what?” he exclaimed, adding, ”I will tell them the truth. Opposition helps government of the day, helps Nigerians, to keep them on track. Opposition helps to check dictatorship, opposition helps to check oppression. My being here as governor, my voice today will remain by the grace of God.
“I’m not like somebody going underground for reasons of harassment; it is only shameful that the government of the day is after shadows. You want to be in power, you are in power; you have charged virtually all PDP governors to court, are we saying no APC governor is corrupt in this country? But for me, I’m not going into that; I’m not going to descend into that arena.”

”For everything I say, I say it in good conscience. When I was criticising the President before he became President of Nigeria, they thought I will be quiet after. Tomorrow, if I find him wanting, I will tell him. The President is not God, he’s only leader of our country for a period of time,” said Fayose.
Asked if his declaration by the state House of Assembly as leader of the opposition was in preparation for a bigger position, Fayose said: “I am not interested in anything. Even this one that I am serving as governor, it is the will of God for me. There is nothing to vie for.

“By morals, it can’t be the turn of Yoruba, if truly we are into rotation and for me, I’m not vying for anything. I’m not equally going to the Senate. Senate is what most governors will rush to; I’m not going. I won’t contest for Senate. So anybody expressing anything for me is wasting his time because I’m not going to beg for any office.
“I have gotten to this position because God wants me there and I’m not going to be part of any promotion to position me. No, I still have three years ahead of me. Who knows what will happen in three years time; who knows what will happen in two years time; who knows where Nigeria itself would be. So, we should all strive for the survival of this country first and forget about positioning yourself.

“Great leaders don’t talk about their political placement, they talk about the country’s placement, where the country would be at the appropriate time. But on the issue of what I stand for and what I say, I have no apologies and with all due respect, I have been like this from time immemorial and I have no apologies because this country belongs to all of us.
“This weekend, I will be 55; a lot of people died when they were 10 years old. Some died when they were 20, some when they were 30 or 40 but I’m 55. If I die today, my children will still entertain guests at my burial, you understand. They will equally leverage on my achievements for consolation. Gowon was president of this country at 28 or 29, Obasanjo was president of Nigeria at 37. Today, I’m still battling with the office of a governor and those people we are talking about are still talking in the public after being 80 or 90 years of age.”

Still on Obasanjo, with whom he has been on war path with over the years, Fayose said: “The likes of Obasanjo were looming larger than life at that time, where are they now? They are at Ota; they are begging for relevance now. They go to the villa everyday to beg for ministerial nominees. I was watching him in the papers, whether he was prostrating for Buhari or he was exchanging compliments, I don’t know. I can’t explain it. At certain times, you must know when to switch off; you must know when to turn off and you must know when to go to bed.
“For me, whether they call me leader of opposition or not, whether they call me Ayo Fayose, I’m not even chairman of PDP governors’ forum and I’m not desperate for anything, but you can’t take away my voice. You can throw away my word but you can’t throw me away.

“I remain resolute, I stand by the common man of this country. Tomorrow, Nigerians will appreciate me. It is in turbulent times that we know the strength of character of a man – in turbulent times like this – and it is shame on PDP leaders decamping because of relevance. They should keep their relevance; whatever we do – good or bad – will live after us.”

‘Unity Forum’ Senators on Wednesday failed to attend plenary as the Deputy President of the Senate, Ike Ekweremadu, presided.
Ekweremadu presided over plenary following the invitation by President Muhammadu Buhari to the President of the Senate, Dr. Abubakar Bukola Saraki, for the inauguration of the Federal Executive Council.

It was the first time Ekweremadu would preside over Senate since his controversial election on June 9.

Among senators that staged a walkout were Ahmad Lawan, George Akume, Kabiru Marafa and Suleiman Hunkuyi.
Only 27 APC senators out of 60 attended plenary.
In a statement issued on behalf of the Unity Forum, Senator Hunkuyi alleged that the conspiracy against the All Progressives Congress had finally been consummated considering the handing over of the plenary to Ekweremadu by Saraki.

“It is a very sad development that must be denounced by all well meaning APC members and leaders alike.
“With this, Senators of the 8th Senate wish to announce that we shall cease to attend any sitting presided over by the PDP in an APC majority chamber of the 8th Senate.”

Reacting, spokesman of the Senate, Senator Sabi Abdullahi, said in a statement that the attention of the Senate had been drawn to a statement titled: “The conspiracy against the APC finally consummated.”

Abdullahi said: “The consummation of a conspiracy is the figment of the imagination of those behind the statement and should be disregarded by Nigerians.
“The Senate wish to reiterate its total commitment to providing robust legislative actions to support the change agenda of Mr. President as he strives to move Nigeria to a new height.

“The bi-partisan stand of the Senate has not and will not be an impediment in any way.
“The distinguished senators are happy with the inauguration of the Federal Executive Council and looks forward to having a harmonious, rancour-free but inclusive and participatory relationship that has at its heart the welfare of Nigerians.
“Finally, as we await the unveiling of the policy directions of Mr. President through the members of his Executive, the Senate is poised to work harder and better to support the emergence of a changed Nigeria of our collective dream.”
Abdullahi said it became necessary for him to clarify the situation because “the spurious statement by some people has come to our notice”.
