Politics / Governor Wike Inspects Rumuokoro Market And Park, Expresses Satisfaction by Nwanyiocha247(f): 9:50am On Jun 16, 2018
Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Ezenwo Wike has expressed satisfaction with the quality of work at the Rumuokoro Market and Park.

The governor who spoke on Monday during his inspection of the market which has been completed , noted that it will help to decongest traffic along that route.

Governor Wike said his visit to the market is to ensure that contractor executed the key project in line with approved specifications.

The market was started by Governor Wike to check street trading along that route.

The Rumuokoro Market and Park has 608 open stalls, 91 lock up shops and Modern Park for transporters.

It will be recalled that Governor Wike in February, 2017 explained to the leaders of Rumuokoro why he started the construction of the market and park.

The governor had earlier explained to the street traders why they will be relocated by his administration .

Speaking when he granted audience to the Nyeweli Rumuokoro, Eze Allwell Ohwonda and Leaders of Rumuokoro Clan at the Government House, Port Harcourt in February 2017, Governor Wike stated that the Rumuokoro Market and Bus Station is a step towards stopping street trading in that axis.

He said after the completion of the two facilities, nobody would be allowed to trade on the major road, while illegal parking of commercial vehicles on the road would be discouraged.

He noted that criminals operating along the road will also be dislodged and the Rumuokoro clan made more secure for business and residential purposes.

He said: “Once we complete the Rumuokoro Market and Bus Station, those trading on the road will be relocated to the market. We shall therefore no longer allow people to trade on the streets.

“The community will be accomodated in the market as well. We will also a community health centre for Rumuokoro clan. “

The governor noted that his administration will continue to promote community development across the state, pointing out project execution is one of the ways to appreciate the people for their loyalty and support.

The governor also inspected the rehabilitated Government Girls Secondary School, Rumuokwuta.

Politics / Re: Ohakim Breaks World Record, Sets Agenda For Governance by Nwanyiocha247(f): 9:42am On Jun 16, 2018
16. That it is manifestly evil, cruel and utterly reprehensible, that in the face of the present
excruciating Nigerian economy, Governor Rochas Okorocha still owes workers and pensioners,
including serving and retired judges, several months of unpaid salaries and pensions. That I will
resume regular payment of full workers salaries and pensions as I did in my �rst term, and
further improve them to re�ect the concept of living wage, if elected.
17. That I shall ensure that money circulates again in Imo State, by pursuing a development
agenda guided by the need to encourage the private sector to participate and leverage the
opportunities to grow their businesses by ensuring that "local content" is maintained in
government procurement and Contract System. Indigenous Contractors shall hence forth be
encouraged and paid promptly for work done as I did in my �rst term.
18. That it is most unfortunate and regrettable that land and contractual cases against the
government of Rochas Okorocha have reached an unprecedented record of 102: That I hereby
guarantee that any person whose land has been taken away unjustly, including
communities and churches, shall get the land back no matter what has been built on it.
19. That it is sacrilegious that our traditional Rulership Institution has been debased, frustrated
and caged by Okorocha. I view it as a desecration of our cultural norms by Okorocha, that on one
occasion, he commanded the traditional rulers to mount a parade of honour for him, while he took
salute (which was covered by live TV): That on assumption of of�ce, I shall take practical steps to restore the dignity of our traditional leadership Institution and free traditional rulers
to run their traditional stools without fear or anxiety as I did in my �rst term.
20. That I am deeply concerned, that Okorocha has practically destroyed the Imo State Civil
Service, to the detriment of all. That by forcing the civil servants to wear uniforms like school
children, Okorocha has stripped them of their human dignity and self-worth, contrary to Article 3,
of African Charter on Human and peoples’ Rights. That Okorocha’s order on uniform is unlawful,
dehumanizing, demoralizing, degrading, abusive and a willful injury to their dignity – crimen
injuria; That I shall on assumption of of�ce scrap the wearing of uniforms by civil servants
and above all restore the dignity of the service.
21. That the local government system is virtually nonexistent in Imo State, since Okorocha willfully
and undemocratically sacked and chased away the democratically elected local government
Chairmen and councilors on June 6, 2011. Okorocha has since then been collecting all LGA
allocations and misappropriating same to date. That on my �rst day in of�ce, I shall redress this
monumental injustice done to the democratically elected Local Government Chairmen and
councilors, by promptly obeying the Court of Appeal unanimous judgment in the case No.
CA/OW/215/11, Local Government Chairmen and Councilors Vs Imo State Government and
Others delivered on July 5, 2012, ordering their immediate reinstatement to of�ce.
That they will complete their remaining tenure or their full entitlement paid and fresh local
government election conducted without any delay whatsoever.
22. That the mindless proscription of Town Unions in Imo State by Okorocha is unlawful,
outrageous, whimsically strange and unconstitutional. That this anti-Igbo and anti–democratic
action has done a great harm to our traditional Igbo leadership mentoring and development
institution. That in a well considered judgment in the suit NO.HO/1/2013,Town Union Presidents
Vs Imo State Government and others delivered on Wednesday the 21st day of September,
2016, the Imo State High Court dismissed this act of impunity and ordered Okorocha to reinstate
the Town Unions but he disobeyed. That by disobeying that court order, Okorocha has as usual
violated the behavior standards expected of a governor. That I shall on my �rst day in of�ce
obey the court order reinstating the Town Unions and joining hands with them to declare an
integrated marshal plan to turn the communities into economic Centers to quicken the
pace of economic recovery in the state.
23. That the suffering in our rural communities as a result of the abandonment of Imo rural Roads
by Governor Okorocha is pervasive and excruciating. That Imo Road Maintenance Agency
(IROMA), a clone of the old PWD founded by my administration in my �rst term and created by
law No.5 of 2008, with brand new equipment and other assets valued at N12.5b in 2011 but
maliciously and undemocratically scrapped by Okorocha and all the equipment and moveable
assets carted away, shall be restored and its assets fully recovered using the installed electronic
chips. That our rural communities which are cut-off due to lack of access/motorable roads
will smile again.
24. That all the 44 schools I returned to the original owners (the missionaries) in my �rst term shall
attract special subvention for reconstruction and the salaries and emoluments of all the
teachers in such schools shall be taken over by my administration for the next 4 years. All
such schools encroached upon by any government agency, individual or community shall be
returned and the balance of the unreturned schools shall be returned to their original owners
without further delay.

25. That the newly opened “EASTERN PALM UNIVERSITY” in Ogboko Ideato LGA, Captured on
page 12 of Okorocha’s 2013 budget speech as “IMO EUROPEAN UNIVERSITY” shall become
the Orlu campus of Imo State University. That admission into all government tertiary Institutions
shall return to what it was in my �rst term, i.e.70% for Imo sons and daughters and 30% for
non-indigenes and not the other way round, which is what obtains under Okorocha.
26. That it is on record that Imo State radio and television corporation (IBC) is completely
dilapidated. Management and staff are owed several months of unpaid salaries and pensions.
Whereas, Governor Rochas Okorocha and his extended family members have built, equipped and
commissioned for themselves a state of the art multi Billion Naira Radio and Television complex
behind a prominent hotel in New Owerri capital Territory. This media complex shall on my
assumption of of�ce become part of Imo Broadcasting Corporation.
27. That all statues indiscriminately erected in the state that do not glorify God including the
worthless and diabolical evil hand on Aba Road, Owerri, shall be pulled down by the divine will of
the Lord God Almighty upon my assumption of of�ce.
28. That the 10,000 Graduate Employment Scheme in my �rst term was a well thought out
program, designed to create mass employment for Imo youths, reinvigorate the civil service and
deploy science and mathematics teachers to Imo school system. That the scheme shall be
restored and improved and the ban on Development Centers lifted.
29. That I shall cause to be reviewed the Imo State of Nigeria 2011, law No. 18 by Okorocha
administration. Section 5 and 6 of this law with particular attention to 5(b), which authorizes the
Governor to borrow money up to the tune of two hundred billion naira (N200b) without prior
approval from the house of Assembly. That this bizarre law translates to handing over a blank
cheque to a governor. No man is good enough to exercise power without reasonable checks and
balance.
30. That I wish to categorically state: that Imo under Okorocha has become an unpardonable
environmental disaster. That this condition is a crime against humanity under article 18 of Banjul
Charter on Human and Peoples’ Rights. That access to drinking water and basic sanitation is a
right to everyone and one of the sustainable development goals of the UN. That it is unfortunate
that Imo under Governor Okorocha does not have a drop of water from any of the state’s
1,395 abandoned water schemes. That most disturbingly, the state has equally been overtaken
by �lth to the detriment of the health of the citizens.
31. That I shall take proactive steps to address these unacceptable but deadly sanitation and
water de�cit challenges by bringing back the Imo state water corporation for immediate
reactivation of the abandoned water schemes and also bring back our �agship programme, the
Imo Clean and Green Initiative which won Owerri capital city the price of the cleanest city in
Nigeria consecutively for 3 years (2008-2010).
32. That I shall ensure that access to quality health care by all citizens irrespective of community
of residence is seamless. That all the 46 rural health care centers built, fully equipped, staffed and
operated by my administration in my �rst term but abandoned by Governor Rochas Okorocha
shall be restored. That all the 26 uncompleted hospital structures (not 27) called general
hospitals by Okorocha administration, including those illegally donated to Federal agencies
shall be converted immediately to cottage industries to create jobs for our youths while reviving the old 18 general hospitals.
33. That as the person who handed over to Okorocha, I know in full details what I handed over to
him including land bank, buildings all over the country, master plans, monies, equipment,
investments and other assets.
That all loots, including lands and government assets, shall be fully recovered and all forms of
appropriation of public property, which records I possess, would be fully addressed and
individuals found culpable would be held to account to the last kobo, without disrupting
governance.
34. That any further experiment at this point in time, with an untested hand at the Governorship
level, for whatsoever reason, may spell doom, and may lead to a total collapse of the State
economy. Then, more of our youths will jet out, to be sold and bought through the ports of Libya
and other countries. God forbid.
35. That I am �rmly convinced that Imo State will face the most profound socio- economic crisis
post–Okorocha era. Arising from absence of relevant records, absence of due process, multiple
contractual litigations, creditors legal actions, bloated debt pro�le, judgment debts, illegal land
grab allegations, assets stripping, outstanding salaries and pensions as well as abandoned
substandard projects and programs.
That the complexities of what will emerge after Okorocha will require a solid cognate governance
and bi-partisan leadership experience. A “Driver mechanic” like myself who knows the ‘NUTS’
and ‘BOLTS’ of Imo State government will no doubt be a perfect �t at this critical period.
36. Lastly, that I shall keep and ful�ll all the promises contained in this af�davit as a covenant with the good people of Imo State.
That I swear to this Affidavit conscientiously believing the facts hereof to be true and correct in accordance with the Oaths Act, 2004

Ohakim Breaks World Record, Sets Agenda for Governance

Ikedi Ohakim takes Nigeria Politics to another level, Swears an AFFIDAVIT in COURT on what he MUST do if reelected in 2019.

This is the first time in the history of the world a politician, Leader or company chief executive will swear an AFFIDAVIT in COURT on what is expected of him, of which failure he is to be dragged and sued in court.

In the High Court of Imo State of Nigeria, In the High Court of Owerri Judicial Division Holden at Owerri. Covenant AFFIDAVIT by Ikedi Ohakim reads as follows :

=====================================

IN THE HIGH COURT OF IMO STATE OF NIGERIA
IN THE HIGH COURT OF OWERRI JUDICIAL DIVISION HOLDEN AT OWERRI

COVENANT AFFIDAVIT
BY IKEDI GODSON OHAKIM

I, Ikedi Godson Ohakim, a Nigerian citizen, Christian, Adult male, Honourable Commissioner for Commerce, Industry and Tourism Imo State Nigeria (1992-1993), Governor Imo State Nigeria (2007- 2011) and resident at Burma Retreat, Okohia in Isiala Mbano LGA of Imo State, do hereby
make Oath as follows:
1. That I shall seek the votes of the good people of Imo state for ONE TERM LAST TENURE only (as governor of Imo State in the 2019 election).
2. That in cognition of my privilege and informed knowledge of the affairs of Imo State, I have the bounden moral, political, economic, social and spiritual responsibilities to the people of Imo State of Nigeria and humanity at large, to challenge and address the wasteful, treacherous, deceitful, capricious, autocratic, totalitarian and perceivably draconian malady that has entangled Imo State of Nigeria between 29/05/2011 and the time of this Oath.

3. That my current mission will be nothing else but:
(i) To address the urgent issues of Economic Revival; Loot Recovery; Reconciliation and Return of Imo State back to the hands of God.
(ii) To liberate Imo State from the rapacious and capricious mismanagement of the affairs as well as the callous and mindless misappropriation of the resources of the state.
(iii) To Re-erect all good governance structures deliberately and ignorantly demolished by
Governor Rochas Okorocha.
(iv) To purify the system; restore our Christian and Traditional values,seek adequate closure on a discredited era; prepare the next generation of leaders and return our state to a more civilized brand of politics devoid of thuggery, gangsterism and brigandage within 4 years.
4. That I am constitutionally quali�ed, mentally matured, physically sound, competent,
experienced and that I understand completely the “NUTS and BOLTS” of Imo State government.
5. That having acquitted myself in my �rst term as Governor who handed over to Governor
Rochas Okorocha, I enjoy a unique governance experience and institutional memory to hit the
ground running at the blast of the whistle, to rekindle hope for a future anchored on democratic rights, due process, economic growth and job creation.
6. That I wish to state categorically: that in my �rst term as governor, I conducted the day to day running and management of the affairs of Imo State with utmost probity, sterling integrity,
transparency and due process. That I obeyed all court judgments and orders and respected rules of engagement in the contract system, without exposing the state to any commercial risks. That I consulted extensively and worked harmoniously with all stakeholders in the state. That as a result, there was no judgment debts against my administration, no contract failed and no contractor made away with tax payers money in spite of the fact that we deliberately stimulated the economy and created wealth in the State by deploying over 2000 local small-scale contractors for projects and infrastructure maintenance scheme in the 305 wards, that in turn employed over 60,000
strong local workforce.
7. That I state for the records that of the 88 Bills of the State House of Assembly between 2007 and 2011, more than 50% were my Bills (47 Executive bills) in promotion of good governance and due process.

8. That I state for the avoidance of doubt: that contrary to the live TV broadcast by Governor
Rochas Okorocha on Monday January 4, 2013, I never built, bought or acquired any of the
landed property Okorocha alleged belonged to me. That I still live in my 3 bedroom bungalow
in PREFAB area of Ikenegbu, Owerri Imo State, which was allocated to me in 1992 when I served as Honourable Commissioner for Commerce, Industry and Tourism under an Owerri son, Governor Evan Enwerem of blessed memory, who later became the President of the Senate of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
9. That Okorocha’s allegation that I embezzled the sum of eight billion Naira (N8b) through
NWORIE RIVER DREDGING CONTRACT is a lie from the pit of hell. That the truth remains that the Nworie River dredging with 3 bridges was an NDDC Federal Government project. That it was one of the projects which I labored to attract from late President Umaru Musa Y’adua with the support of our National Assembly members. That two of the bridges in the contract, at Egbeada and Nekede roads had been completed before I left office. That for reasons best known to Okorocha, he neglected or was unable to follow up on this environmentally impactful contract.
Rather he has ignorantly or deliberately destroyed the flow of rivers Nworie and Otamiri
with poorly constructed culverts instead of bridges in utter contravention of the Engineering Design.
10. That it is also false that I secured the sum of one hundred billion naira (N100b) from the capital market and embezzled it. The truth is that my administration secured only the sum of Eighteen billion, three hundred million Naira (N18.3b) in 2010 from the Capital market for counterpart funding for the re-development of Oguta lake resort and conference center designed to create over 2000 jobs etc.
That Governor Okorocha when he took over from me, rebranded the Oguta project, “the blue
lake of treasure” and unfortunately abandoned it and withdrew the project fund of Thirteen billion three hundred million Naira (13.3B) from UBA and misappropriated it. His then Commissioner for Finance, Hon. Chike Okafor in his publication in the Daily Sun of Wednesday January 23, 2013 confirmed the availability of this fund and stated that they abandoned the Oguta project and
“…channeled the fund into building 305 Classroom blocks, building of Ultra-modern general
Hospitals in the 27 LGAs and some critical roads…”. That then means that the credit for these
projects should go to our administration not Okorocha.
That in total, I saved and handed over to Governor Rochas Okorocha the sum of twenty-Six
billion, two hundred and seventy-million Naira (N26.27b) excluding various investments
which he must account for.
11. That I wish to state for the record: that as a good Christian, I have forgiven anyone and
everyone that offended me and that I hereby ask for same measure from all that I have offended.
That I bear no grudge against anyone or groups and would never enter the trenches with anyone
for vengeance. After all, when Christ was cruci�ed some 2,000 years ago, among the last words
he uttered was an appeal to God to forgive those who had nailed Him to the cross – a remarkable
call from a man who had been beaten, crowned with thorns and repeatedly mocked. Yet he asked
his father to forgive them.
12. That I state with sadness: that Ndi Imo today are hurting for lack of jobs, lack of potable water,
lack of due process in governance, �agrant disobedience of court orders and massive demolition of people’s homes and businesses. This is in spite of the humongous revenue of nearly one trillion
Naira (N1T) that accrued to Okorocha’s administration between 20/05/2011 and the date of this
Oath.
13. That the invasion, demolition and destruction of Ekeukwu Owerri market in the dusk of
Saturday the 26th day of August, 2017, in utter disregard of a subsisting restraining order of
Interlocutory injunction by an Imo State High Court, leading to loss of live and property estimated
at over ten Billion Naira (N10b) is unconscionable, reprehensible, an affront to the judiciary,
provocative, irresponsible, reckless and ill advised. That if elected, I shall obey the eventual
court judgment even if it orders the immediate return of the Ekeukwu Market to its original
place to preserve our tradition and culture irrespective of what has hurriedly been built at
the site.
14. That the brazen, reckless and indiscriminate demolition and destruction of our traditional
markets in Imo State without regard to due process, without notice to the indigenes; and at the
same time banning street trading, is mindlessly cruel, has brought untold hardship to the rural
traders, and accentuated the economic hardship in the state. That all the markets demolished
by Okorocha and his co-travelers, shall be rebuilt at no cost to any community unlike the
Governor Okorocha’s Scheme to develop and sell stalls even to previous owners at
exorbitant prices.
15. That I am deeply concerned about the sufferings of commuters in Owerri metropolis since
Okorocha banished tricycle (KEKE) without an adequate alternative. That I shall return KEKE as
a means of transportation on my �rst day in of�ce. After all, KEKE still ply the Victoria Island
Lagos roads and the whole of India. That I shall also bring back the Imo Municipal Transport
Service (IMTS) which was our brain child but scrapped by Okorocha, and fully recover the
company’s assets.

Sports / Video/photos: The Full Text Of Arsene Wenger’s Farewell Speech by Nwanyiocha247(f): 2:10am On May 08, 2018
Arsene Wenger took charge of his final home match on Sunday.

The long-serving boss was given a guard of honour ahead of the Gunners’ 5-0 win over Burnley at the Emirates, which secured them sixth spot in the league.

Wenger, 68, ended his day with a direct address to the still-packed home stands at the Emirates, after receiving a long chorus of “One Arsene Wenger” from the club’s supporters, who were each given a ‘Merci Arsene’ t-shirt.

Thank you every much. Before I start, I just want to wish my fellow manager Alex Ferguson well. Thank you for having me for such a long time. I know that’s not easy.

“But above all, I am like you, I am an Arsenal fan. This is more than just watching football, it’s a way of life. It’s caring about the beautiful game, about the values we cherish, and as well, that something that goes for all our bodies in every cell of our bodies. We care, we worry, we are desperate, but when you come here, the theatre of dreams we realise what it means.

“I would like as well to thank everyone at the club who makes it so special, I would invite you, really push, support these players and the staff who remains behind me, these group of players has a special quality. Not only on the pitch, but off the pitch. Please, as you follow this team, support them next season because they deserve it.

“I would like to finish in one simple sentence: I will miss you. Thank you all for having such an important part of my life, thank you all, well done, bye bye,” Wenger said.

Politics / Pictures From Gov. Okorocha's Visit To Aso Rock After Imo Ward Congress Eletions by Nwanyiocha247(f): 12:34am On May 08, 2018
Okorocha, who gave the warning while addressing journalists after meeting with President Muhammadu Buhari, on Sunday, said Buhari was determined to correct such wrongs.

He said, “We expect internal democracy and internal democracy is the way to go. This kind of funny politics that we are playing must stop… we do not want people to carry ballot boxes and steal results. This looks so primitive.


I intimated Mr. President and we will make sure that such things must stop. He spoke like the president and he will take the necessary steps to correct this in our party, APC, not just in Imo state but across the whole nation, and to also make sure that there is respect for internal democracy in Imo state.”

The governor has been appealing to the members of the party in the State to remain calm and avoid actions that could lead to fracas or loss of lives.

Monkey Man

Who pulls off a Monkey costume? Well, some people say it’s Sound Sultan. Others say “no, it’s the infamous monkey responsible for the disappearance of 70 million from a senator’s farm.” We are not saying it’s both.
The monkey looked so peng, when you’re not looking at the face, that is.


Danfo Drivers (Mad Melon and Mountain Black) Performance


Iye meeeee….. Iye meeeee…. Iye meeee (Someone should complete this thing lol). The energy in the room leapfrogged to a hundred when they got on stage. We understand. The song – Kpolongo – brought back memories.


When (Part Of) The 30 Billion Gang Came to Receive Mayorkun’s “Next Rated” Award


They are not called a gang for nothing! They must represent; and they did when Mayorkun was announced as the winner of the coveted “Next Rated” award at the show. They literally “scattered everywhere”.


Kaffy Receiving the Special Recognition Award


Virtually no show goes by without Kaffy and her team performing – either alongside singers, or solely, giving more life to the art. She was recognised at the show for her work, and we must say, she deserves this accolade.


#BBNaija’s ToLex

Yes. Big Brother Naija Wahala is not over. Apart from Tobi being one of the presenters for the “Rookie of the Year” category, we also love how sweet him and one time “strategic partner” in the house Alex looked at the show. Whether there is chemistry or biology here, we know something scientific is going on!

Simi Hails Her “Man”


Vocal powerhouse Simi who carted home 3 awards at the show – Best RnB Single for Smile for Me, the Best Recording of the Year for Joromi, and her album Simisola won the Album of the Year – in her appreciation speech for the latter, gave a shout out to her “man” who she says has been supporting her.
And you guessed right; she didn’t mention a name. But no one mentioned Adekunle Goldsha.


Davido tells Artistes to Help As Many People as they Can

Davido, who also won three awards – IF won the Best Pop Single and Song of the Yearcategories, and was also named the Artiste of the Year – called on artistes to always lend a helping hand to people, noting that the over 2 dozen persons on stage with him have received one form of help or the other from him and he can’t wake up each day to see people in need without doing something. He says that’s why he’s blessed.
He thereafter challenged artistes to help others. He also dedicated the award to his family, his father, his daughters and of course, Chioma!
The superstar later revealed that his next album is coming up in September.

VIDEO: Gov. Rochas Okorocha Screams As He Heads To IMO Police Command For A Rescue Mission

The turn out of APC’s May 5, 201 8 Congress in imo cannot be overemphasized as events took turns leaving many bewildered as to how what they assumed & presumed unfolded in a different dimension.

This could unarguably be as a result of his Monday 30th April 2018 Show Of Shame where Imo state Governor, His Excellency Rochas Okorocha categorically without fear release his formation for 2019 General elections. Governor Okorocha in his usual manner shared the 3 Senatorial district seats to himself, Prof. Obiarieri and Orjinere.

Others who benefited from this undemocratic attitude from Okorocha are Hon. Chike Okafor, Hon. Nnanna Igbokwe, Uju Kingsley Chima, Uche Nwosu and few others hence, turning himself an enemy to those who weren’t favoured in this act of selectocracy.

Fast forward to may 5th, The party obviously Decided leaving Okorocha and his cartels Dismantled.

Senator Ifeanyi Araraume may have won the Political Battle over who controls the Imo State Chapter of the All Progressives Congress.

According to the information reaching NWANYIOCHA MEDIA, His Excellency, Owelle Anayo Rochas Okorocha till now, does not know where the materials for the Ward Congress are…funny right? Lol!

In a late hour Press statement Released by the Chief Press Secretary to the Governor, Sam Onwuemeodo Said;

“This is to inform the general public that the materials especially the result sheets for the conduct of the APC Ward Congresses in the State have not been found upto this moment”.

The argument over who is in custody of the materials have been between the man originally posted to the State for the conduct of the Congresses Chief Ini Okorie and the organizing Secretary of the Party, Chief Osita Izunaso.

While Izunaso said he handed over the materials to Chief Okorie, the man himself said Chief Izunaso didn’t give him the materials And late the same evening, when the Police took Chief Okorie to the residence of Senator Izunaso to resolve the issue of who among them has the materials, the man disappeared in Izunaso’s house.

As an Nwanyiocha that i’m it will also be noteworthy to state that according to eyewitnesses, while the governor and his team stormed the State police command, he was repeatedly screaming,

“Ararume eeh, Ararume na Izunaso Egbu o Mu o”(Meaning Ararume eeh, Ararume na Izunaso Has Killed Me)

While Ararume’s Coalition peacefully went home to relax & Toast after the day’s victory

Try to work hard on your self control as a woman because bigger Miracles will surely come your way.

Don’t chase money, let money chase you. Choose your friends wisely and don’t forget the ones you knew before now. They tell you you are still young to do anything don’t be deceived. You are a woman not a girl.

Whilst you await your accolades don’t forget to first give accolades to your dear little friends back home who were instrument’s to where you are today. Show them you care.

Health / Woman "Trapped In Her Own Body" Has Written A Book Using Only Her Eyes by Nwanyiocha247(f): 11:41pm On May 02, 2018
A woman "trapped in her own body" after suffering a stroke has written a book about her ordeal using only her eyes.

Mia Austin, 29, suffered a stroke when she was 21 and this left her unable to speak. She can now only communicate through eye movement and a spelling chart.

After the stroke, Mia, from Wirral, North West England, was diagnosed with an extremely rare condition known as "locked in syndrome", with doctors describing the condition as "the closest thing to being buried alive".

She is paralysed from the neck down and has to be fed through a tube. As she is unable to speak, Mia uses a special computer to communicate, which recognises her eye gaze. In spite of her condition, she wrote a book using the special condition.

The book is titled "In the blink of an eye". It was launched last Friday, April 27. In it, Mia shares her experiences of her ordeal with readers.

In the introduction, Mia writes:

I must have woken on the morning of November 16, 2009, totally oblivious as to what was going to happen because I’d been to work, as usual, nothing different, followed by the gym where I did my normal workout.

I went straight in to tell my mum how badly I’d done (at the gym) and she replied ‘There’s always tomorrow’. How ironic.

Welcome to my story all about me. Now you can get into the head of a stroke victim.

Doctors told the family to expect the worst and that Mia might not survive the night after she suffered a stroke and was put on a life support machine at Arrowe Park Hospital, Merseyside, in November 2018.

Just as doctors were preparing to switch the life support machine off, Mia opened her eyes and doctors realised that despite being completely immobile, she could still see, hear, and think as normal. Mia was diagnosed with "locked in syndrome" a week later.

Speaking of the book, Mia’s dad, Rick, said: "Personally, I feel incredibly proud of Mia. To write a book in quite literally a blink of an eye is outstanding. It took her around one year to write but it was a very laborious task, using her eyes to choose each letter."

Her mother Carole, 62, said: "It was totally all Mia’s idea. She was in the hospital for around 14 months and writing poems and stories kept her on her alert and occupied. I think the idea stemmed from there really."

The family, including Mia’s brother Sam, 32, and sister Sophie, 25, all helped Mia using a spelling chart to write poems and short stories in the hospital.

Carole said: "As you can imagine using the spelling graph took forever, it was very tiring for her, it is so much easier now she has the special computer.

"In this book, Mia writes about her experiences and addresses all the questions everyone probably wants to know but are too polite to ask. I am so proud of her, from the start we have all maintained a sink and swim mentality to what has happened and Mia has proven just how brave and driven she is."

Asides, writing a book, Mia completed a criminology course at Wirral Metropolitan College in 2017 before signing up for a forensics course with the Open University. This year she will begin another course in criminal justice.

Speaking of her achievements her dad said: "She’s a very determined young lady and has recently launched a campaign for disabled travellers. Before her stroke, she was a travel agent and she’s always campaigning or raising money for charity."

Politics / ''obasanjo's Letter To Me Was Abusive'' President Buhari by Nwanyiocha247(f): 8:28am On May 02, 2018
President Buhari has described the January 23rd controversial letter former president Olusegun Obasanjo wrote to him asking him not to seek re-election as abusive.

Speaking in an interview with the Hausa version of the Voice of America in the US, President Buhari said even though the letter was abusive, he had to refrain the Minister of Information, Lai Mohammed, from replying the letter with abusive words.

”Even when the Minister of Information and Culture wanted to reply that abusive letter written by former President Olusegun Obasanjo, I told him not to. I later allowed him but only to highlight the achievements of our administration.’’ President Buhari said

In his explosive letter which generated a lot of reactiosn, Obasanjo accused President Buhari of nepotism, having a poor understanding of politics and engaging in blame games rather than accepting responsibility for his failure. Part of the letter read

“Whatever may be the state of President Buhari’s health today, he should neither overpush his luck nor over-tax the patience and tolerance of Nigerians for him, no matter what his self-serving, so-called advisers, who would claim that they love him more than God loves him and that without him, there would be no Nigeria say. President Buhari needs a dignified and honourable dismount from the horse. He needs to have time to reflect, refurbish physically and recoup and after appropriate rest, once again, join the stock of Nigerian leaders, whose experience, influence, wisdom and outreach can be deployed in the sideline for the good of the country”.

Romance / Facebook Announces Plan To Launch Dating Service by Nwanyiocha247(f): 8:11am On May 02, 2018
Facebook founder, Mark Zuckerberg announced on Tuesday that the world’s largest social network will soon include a new dating feature vowing to make privacy protection its top priority in the wake of the Cambridge Analytica scandal.


Zuckerberg unveiled the plans as he addressed Facebook’s annual developers conference in San Jose, California emphasizing that the focus would be on helping people find long-term partners. “This is going to be for building real, long-term relationships, not just hook-ups”.

He said in presenting the new feature, noting that one in three marriages in the United States start online and that some 200 million Facebook users identify as being single. Under the new feature, users will be able to create a separate “dating” profile not visible to their network of friends, with potential matches recommended based on dating preferences, points in common, and mutual acquaintances.

Zuckerberg did not specify whether the feature would be free of charge, in line with Facebook’s core offer but the announcement was enough to send shares in the online dating giant Match.com tumbling by 17 percent. The 33-year-old CEO also said the dating offer was built from the ground-up with privacy and safety in mind, as he underscored the firm’s commitment to boosting privacy protections.

Jackie Chan’s Lesbian Daughter Is Allegedly Homeless And Living Under The Bridge


‘We’ve been homeless for a month’: Jackie Chan’s daughter posts YouTube video in cry for help

By
Coconuts Hong Kong

Jackie Chan's daughter and her girlfriend Andi Autumn make a desperate plea for help via a YouTube video. screngrab via YouTube.

Jackie Chan’s estranged daughter and her girlfriend are homeless, and have made an urgent plea for help and shelter.

A short video that appeared online on Tuesday — but was only picked up by local media outlets today — shows 18-year-old Etta Ng with her 30-year-old girlfriend Andi Autumn revealing that they have been homeless for a month due to homophobic parents.

The plea for help comes following the appearance of CCTV footage of Ng and Autumn in a convenience store, where Ng tells the cashier “I want to find my dad.” Local media reported that the pair had been spotted in Canada, that Ng had quit her job, had not been heard from or seen for months, and that her mother filed a missing persons report in February.

In the video caption, Ng explains that Autumn’s friend is providing temporary shelter but can no longer house them, forcing the couple to “turn to the internet for help as there is strength in numbers.”

Ng adds that the pair are also suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder, are “extremely flustered about the whole situation,” and that neither “families, friends, or government services will help them.”

Reading from a sheet of paper, Autumn explains that the pair are not willing to go to a homeless shelter because they will be split up, adding “no one on my Facebook is going to listen to me, and now no one is responding to my phone calls.”

“We’ve pretty much slept under a bridge and other things,” says Ng.

“I don’t even understand what is going on because we’ve gone to the police, we’ve gone to the hospital, the food banks, LGBTQ community shelters, and all of them just don’t give a shit,” says Ng.

“We just wanna let people know what’s going on, because at this point it seems ridiculous that no one can help, I don’t understand.”

The couple did not say in the video where they are.

The relationship between Ng and her mother Elaine Ng has long been fraught with tension, culminating in the younger Ng dropping out of school and moving to North Point with Autumn shortly after coming out as lesbian.

Local media have described Autumn as a model and social media influencer, but in a recent Facebook post, she said she worked as a teacher for eight years.

Responding to questions from on.cc, Ng’s mother Elaine Ng said it was wrong for her daughter to namedrop her father in order to ask for help because he has been absent from most of her life.

When asked about her daughter saying she has PTSD, the elder Ng replies: “Etta has emotional problems. She was seeing a doctor last year, but she hasn’t gone to therapy since she left Hong Kong.”

She also accused Autumn of being a bad influence on her daughter saying: “She’s already 30-something and is a teacher with working experience. How can she tell an 18-year-old girl to film such a video? It’s wrong. I feel that if they have no money, they should go find work. They shouldn’t film a clip telling others they are broke and who Etta’s father is. People all over the world work hard and don’t rely on someone else’s fame to get money.”

She then goes on to say say the pair should not blame their parents, adding: “Many people in Hong Kong get paid low wages, but they still go to work. If they don’t have work, then they’ll film these videos to complain about their parents? How many of these videos would we see in a day then?”

When asked if she had been in contact with her daughter, she replied: “I don’t want to talk about it.”

At the joint press conference, President Buhari was asked if during their closed door meeting, he addressed the ''shithole' comment President Donald Trump made about some African countries earlier in the year.

In his response, President Buhari said he cannot ascertain if the allegation against President Trump is true and so he would rather keep quiet than make a comment on it.

''I am very careful with what the press says other than myself. I am not sure whether that allegation against the presidnet is true or not. So the best thing for me to do is to keep quiet'' he said

President Trump in his response said ''We didn't discuss it but you do have some counytries that are in very bad shape and very tough places to live in.We didn't discuss it because the presidnet knows me and he knows where I am coming from and I appreciate that''.
