Frankly speaking, Lagos appears to be like a country of its own.
It actually qualified to be as the state’s GDP remains larger than that of West African neighbours Niger, Benin, Togo, Chad, Sierra Leone, Liberia and the Gambia put together.

Politics / Magnus Abe Returns To APC, Seeks Support For Tinubu by obuburam: 5:06am On Jan 05
The Rivers State Governorship candidate of the Social Democratic Party in the 2023 election, Senator Magnus Abe, has formally announced his return to the All Progressives Congress.

Abe dumped the APC for the SDP ahead of the 2023 election where he secured the party’s ticket to contest the governorship election.

But while speaking to newsmen shortly after a meeting with stakeholders in Port Harcourt on Wednesday, he said he has dumped the SDP for his former party.

He explained that his decision is to join other ‘well-meaning Nigerians’ to support the President Bola Tinubu-led administration, and to ensure that Rivers people benefit from the development at the centre.

He stated, “The new year offers a lot of opportunities and hopes for all Nigerians and indeed all Rivers people. My message has been consistent that we all need to come together; work together to be able to harvest these expectations for our people.

“So basically I called my people here today to intimidate them of some of the ongoing issues and also to let them know that we are returning to the All Progressives Congress to join other well-meaning Nigerians to support the government of President Bola Tinubu. And to do our own best to also make sure that Rivers people are able to be part of the development at the centre and to also carry the state along in what we are doing.”

Abe added that he and his team members were not back to the party because of any individual.
"We are in the APC because we are founding members of this party and we are grassroots supporters of the President. It is proper that we are in the party to continue to give that full support to the President’s developmental agenda,” he explained
Asked how he intends to work with those he allegedly fell out with when he dumped the APC to pursue his governorship ambition, Abe said he was ready to work with others to ensure prosperity for Rivers people.

He added, “My coming to the APC is to work together with other members of the party to ensure growth, inclusion, prosperity and progress for Rivers State and Rivers people.

If we all have the same mind, we will be party to achieving that. So, I think that this is a new year and everybody who wants the APC to move forward in Rivers State need to realise that the APC cannot be a personal estate of anybody.

“We are all very strong characters. There is none of those people, myself, Rotimi Amaechi, Nyesom Wike and Tony Okocha that is a walk over. But you will also agree that if all of us must come together, there should not be any other force in Rivers State that can stop us.

“So, I believe that if we can find a common ground which we have all found in the APC definitely there is a space for everybody.”

Meanwhile, the State APC Caretaker Committee Chairman, Chief Tony Okocha, said Abe is welcomed to the party, describing him as a founding member of the party.
Okocha said this while answering questions from newsmen shortly after he visited the New Generation Vision Orphanage in Elelenwo, Obio/Akpor Local Government Area and the Home for the Elderly in Port Harcourt, where he distributed items, including bags of rice, cartons of noodles, toiletries and cash donations.

He said, “In politics, it is the more, the merrier. I listened to one of his (Abe’s) conversations on air that he intends to the APC. We can't stop him.

Politics / Edison Ehie Withdraws Suit Against 25 Rivers Assembly Members by obuburam: 6:42pm On Jan 04
Ehie resigned his position in the House of Assembly following the peace deal reached between Governor Fubara and Wike.

By Charles Opurum
There appears to be an end to the political crisis rocking Rivers State as the member representing Ahoada East Constituency II at the Rivers State House of Assembly, Edison Ehie, has withdrawn his contempt proceedings suit against 25 of the 27 defected lawmakers.

Last December, Ehie, a close ally of the state governor, Siminalayi Fubara, declared the seats of 27 lawmakers vacant over their defection from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to the All Progressives Congress (APC).

Ehie led the group of four lawmakers loyal to the governor. Fubara on the other hand has been engaged in a fierce political battle with his predecessor, Nyesom Wike, the FCT minister.

Earlier, Ehie filed contempt proceedings at the Rivers State High Court in Port Harcourt against 25 of them in which he challenged their sittings and legislative activities.

In an interesting turn of events, however, Ehie resigned his position in the House of Assembly following the peace deal reached between Governor Fubara and Wike.

Now Mr Ehie is discontinuing and withdrawing his suit against the 25 lawmakers.

When the matter came up for hearing of applications pending before the court today, counsel to the Claimant, Mac-Barango Esq informed the court about a Notice of Discontinuance filed by his clients. He applied that the court should give effect to the said Notice.

This request wasn’t challenged by the defendant’s counsel and as such was struck out by the judge

Sports / Re: Wayne Rooney Sacked As Birmingham Manager by obuburam: 2:15pm On Jan 03
Badguy77:
The earlier clubs realize not all good players make good coaches the better for them.. Check Frank lampard, Steven Gerald and the rest..
These two are still better than Rooney 100 times.
Frank Lanpard can still boast of his first season at Chelsea as an achievement and Steven Gerald was not even in Rooney's league at all.

He won a Scottish league for Rangers and he's doing well in Saudi Arabia. Apart from a bad stint at Aston Villa but Rooney no sabi at all.
Relegated Derby County, DC United would have gone on relegation only if MLS teams do relegate and within 13 weeks took Birmingham from 5th back to 20th.
He only had a good footballing profile but very bad coaching profile. He should rest
