Politics / My Husband’s Return As Gov Certain, Divine —mrs Fayose by ojowizzy: 9:21pm On Jan 09, 2014
Wife of a former governor of Ekiti State and a prominent Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) governorship aspirant in the state, Mrs Feyisetan Fayose, has said that her husband, Mr Ayo Fayose, will be elected again as governor of the state in June this year.

Mrs Fayose, in an address she presented to PDP women on the occasion of her 50th birthday on Wednesday, said: “I am not a politician, I am a woman that believes in God. As the Lord liveth, I have simply come to announce to you and any other doubting Thomases of the inevitable return and restoration of my husband, Mr Peter Ayodele Fayose, to his seat as the next governor of Ekiti State.”

She told the large gathering of women from the 16 local government areas of the state at the Ayo Fayose Campaign Organisation (AFCO) headquarters in Ado Ekiti that “by the special grace of God, his return is certain, and so destined. I am telling you that nothing can stop him.”

Describing her husband, Mrs. Fayose said “Ayo Fayose is a man with a fierce outlook but with a good heart. He means well for the Ekiti people. You will agree with me that Fayose remains the best performed governor who did not plunge Ekiti into unnecessary debt,” noting that “rather, he left over N10 billion in the state coffer. No wonder, almost eight years after his exit, his name is still a household name.”

She assured the women that she would “protect the interest of women and ensure that the women get their dues in the incoming Fayose administration,” adding “I commend you to support him because he will surely return to the Government House.”

Speaking on the occasion, former Governor Fayose described his wife as “an appropriate balance and pillar of support,” and maintained that he is still of relevance in the politics of Ekiti State because he had interacted with the people of the state with truthfulness when he served as governor of the state.”

Fayose said it was too late for Governor Kayode Fayemi to plan to conduct local government elections in the state this 2014, saying “it is a belated effort. The time is up for the present government because the PDP has come to take over the government of Ekiti.”

Fayose, who likened himself to the biblical David, expressed confidence that his political relevance would be restored in 2014 because of the confidence he said the people had in his leadership.

Among those in attendance on the occasion were the Secretary of PDP in the state, Dr Tope Aluko; PDP State Publicity Secretary, Pastor Kola Oluwawole; wife of AFCO Director-General, Mrs Owoseni Ajayi; PDP State Woman Leader, Mrs Busola Oyebode; former Permanent Secretary, Dr (Mrs) Beatrice Alade; former Information Commissioner, Mr Gboyega Oguntuase; former Water Resource Commissioner, Chief Segun Akinwumi; Chairman, AFCO and former PDP Financial Secretary, Chief Ebenezer Oladipo; Mr Bimbo Oluwayose; PDP governorship aspirant, Mrs Cecelia Dada; women leaders; former PDP local government party chairmen and party members.

Sports / Theo Walcott’s Injury: How Will Arsenal Cope In His Absence? by ojowizzy: 11:35am On Jan 07, 2014
Injuries, they say, are part and parcel of the
beautiful game but like a thief at night, it
sneaks on you when you least expect it.
Arsenal’s Theo Walcott has had his fair share of
injury worries in the past with a dislocated
shoulder being a big concern at the early part
of his career with the club. He has also had
some ankle and hamstring problems as well
down the years.
When he managed to stay fit for the entirety of
a season, he slammed in 21 goals and many
more things were expected of him in the
forthcoming campaign for both club and
country. Walcott began the 2013/14 campaign
at a rather slow pace in terms of his output in
the final third, with his assist to Olivier Giroud
in the North London Derby being his most
telling contribution in the early part of the
campaign.
He finally broke his goalscoring duck with a
technically astute finish against Olympique
Marseille but he suffered an abdominal injury in
the build up to the home clash against those
goons from Stoke and required a surgery to
mitigate the problem.
With Olivier Giroud falling ill and Nicklas
Bendtner suffering an injury to his ankle,
Walcott was afforded a chance can to strut his
stuff in the center forward in the North London
Derby against Tottenham on Saturday. His
linkup play and movement was brilliant but his
finishing was a bit wayward.
However, on the 81st minute after Arsene
Wenger had made all his substitutions, Walcott
was tackled by Danny Rose and he couldn’t get
back up. While he was stretched out, he trolled
the Spurs fans by reminding them of the
scoreline and they pelted coins at him, but the
Arsenal fans responded by throwing red and
white scarves at their hero while signing his
songs.
In his post-match press conference, Wenger
wasn’t too sure about how bad the injury was,
citing that it might just be a stretched ligament
or just a kick, but after an extensive scan on
Monday, the club regrettably announced that
the speedster has sustained a ruptured anterior
cruciate ligament of his left knee, which means
that he’ll be out for at least six months.
If you do your calculations right, you don’t need
any soothsayer to tell you that Walcott’s
2013/14 campaign for the Gunners is over and
he’ll play no part in England’s quest for glory in
the World Cup which is very painful. On the
international scene, Sven-Goran Eriksson put
him (as a 16-year-old) on the plane to
Germany in 2006, Fabio Capello didn’t deem
him good enough to join the party in 2010 and
now, injury has robbed him of a chance to
shine in the big stage this time.
By the time, Russia would be hosting the World
Cup in 2018, Walcott will be around 28/29-year-
old, which ultimately means that it would
probably be his last World Cup.

Politics / Stop Our Men From Decamping To APC; Akpabio Begs Tambuwal by ojowizzy: 8:38am On Jan 07, 2014
Governor Godswill Akpabio of Akwa Ibom has
appealed to the Speaker of the House of Reps,
Alhaji Aminu Tambuwal, to stop further defection
of members of Peoples Democratic Party in the
National Assembly to the leading opposition party,
the APC.
In his words: “You must do everything humanly
possible to avoid further defection of PDP
members in the National Assembly . Even those
that have defected, we want to implore you to do
your best to convince them to come back because
the umbrella is not torn. The umbrella can
accommodate them and can still cover them very
well.”
In his reaction, Tambuwal simply told Akpabio that
he was in the state to discuss national issues.
It will be recalled that 37 members of the House
of Representatives elected on the platform of PDP
had last month defected to the All Progressives
Congress, giving the opposition a simple majority
in the House.
But Akpabio asked the Speaker to help convince
the defectors to return to the party. Akpabio’s
position was contained in a statement issued after
Tambuwal paid him a courtesy visit in Uyo on
Monday.
Nigeriaonpoint.Com gathered all efforts by
Akpabio to drag Tambuwal into political
discussions during his visit to the state was
politely turned down.
