PoliticsAmaechi Needs Urgent Psychiatric Attention - Governor Wike by olokeded(op): 8:55am On Mar 13, 2016
Read the press statement below...

Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Ezenwo Wike has declared that former Gov. Rotimi Amaechi is a failed governor who needs urgent psychiatric evaluation and treatment.

Governor Wike said Former Governor Amaechi is monstrously corrupt, pointing out that after his litigation on his indictment by the judicial Commission of Inquiry, his (Amaechi's) prosecution over the embezzlement of Rivers resources will take place.



Speaking at the PDP Rivers West Senatorial District Campaign rally at Ahoada on Saturday, Governor Wike said that only a man with psychiatric disorder will compare his failed eight years in office to just eight months of the new administration.


He said the former governor failed in his eight as the state chief executive. According to him, Amaechi lacks proper parental upbringing hence his desperation in the political arena.

Governor Wike said that the APC has refused to campaign for the rerun elections because they are relying on the military and security forces to rig.

"He is a psychiatric patient who was at the radio station abusing people who are old enough to be his fathers/mothers simply because his party lost at the Supreme Court.

"We will defeat Amaechi again and again. No matter the deployed to Rivers State, the PDP we will all the seats ".

The governor said that Amaechi during his radio tour confessed that the military has been handed over to him to rig elections in the state. He added that the plot would fail woefully as the Rivers people will defend their mandate.

He pointed out that Amaechi's personal friend Mr Tosin Ajayi was posted to Rivers State as DSS director with the evil objective of creating the environment of rigging.

He said : "Only yesterday, I intercepted the communication of the DSS director and the Brigade commander where they were planning on the ways of rigging the election alongside Amaechi. That plot has failed.

"Amaechi lacks sound parental upbringing. He has vindicated us when he said that he has been given the army to rig the rerun elections. I know the Chief of Army staff very well. He should not allow a psychiatric patient to use the Army to rig.

"Is Amaechi now the Commander in Chief of the Armed Forces that he talks about deploying soldiers? Our people will rise up to defend their votes. They will make the needed sacrifices their votes", Governor Wike said.

He reminded the people that on May 27, 2015, Amaechi made a statement that his (Wike ) administration will be unable to pay salaries and execute projects. He said he has confounded through the execution of pro-people projects across the state, payment of salaries and pensions.



He called on the people of Rivers West Senatorial District to vote overwhelmingly for the PDP for uniformed development to be entrenched in the state.

The Governor said that development of the communities rests with his administration, pointing out that he has discharged his responsibility faithfully.

Governor Wike said no matter the time it takes Amaechi will face trial for stealing Rivers resources .

"If President Muhammadu Buhari visits Amaechi's house in Asokoro, he will never allow him to come into Presidential Villa. After the case initiated by Amaechi over his indictment, he will face justice for embezzling state funds"




Also speaking , PDP Deputy National Chairman described the former governor as a pathetic liar who mismanaged resources of the state.

He said : "Amaechi needs urgent proper psychiatric evaluation and treatment. We call on Dr Parker to treat the former governor ".

He said Amaechi's appearance on different radio stations is merely an avenue to create crisis in the state.

He said: "No amount of blackmail will pull down the administration of Governor Wike. Amaechi was a failed governor ".

The Rivers North West Senatorial District Campaign rally attracted PDP faithful from the eight local government areas of the district.

Christianity EtcPastor Sambulo Pours Hot Water On Church Members To Demonstrate 'miracle' by olokeded(op): 2:25pm On Mar 08, 2016
[img]http://www.nigerianbulletin.com/attachments/pas1-jpg.73829/[/img]
A South African pastor, Apostle Thamsanqa Sambulo, claimed he performed a miracle and an apostle of God after he allegedly poured boiling water on himself and members of his church.

The KwaZulu Natal-based young pastor is the founder of Thy Word Kingdom Harvest Ministries which has been making headlines because of lots of reasons.

He has been having revivals across the country and he recently performed a miracle which left everyone shocked.

Trying to bring back what happened when the Biblical Shadrack, Meshack and Abednego were thrown into the lake of fire and were not burn, Apostle Sambulo boiled a kettle of water and started demonstrating on his church members by pouring the boiling water on them.

The Facebook page of Thy Word Kingdom Harvest Ministries told the story of Sambulo’s miracle claim.

According to the post, one evening during a church gathering, Sambulo asked a member of his church to “go boil water in a kettle at the kitchen”.

Sambulo then allegedly hugged the kettle “on his chest”.

The post read: "The congregation was in shock, as they shouted: 'NO!' (sic) Some couldn't even look.

“He then asked: 'Who has faith here?' (sic) One by one, people came and did what the apostle did, and were not hurt. He re-boiled the water... as he did...one young woman came to him and said; ‘Papa I have faith, pour it on my hand as hot as it is.’

“The Son of God first poured on Himself, then poured unto this lady. The rest of the congregation, one by one followed, as they also wanted to test their faith.”

Health40,000 Nigerian Pregnant Women Die Yearly - US by olokeded(op): 9:59pm On Mar 04, 2016
The United States Ambassador to Nigeria, Mr James Entwistle, on Friday said no fewer than 40, 000 maternal deaths were recorded in Nigeria annually.

Mr. Entwistle said in Lagos that many pregnant women in Nigeria often delay in seeking health care until potentially life-threatening conditions arose.

“There are 40,000 maternal deaths per year in Nigeria. We believe that no mother should die from preventable causes.




“The excessively high maternal, neonatal and under-five death rates are reflections of inadequate availability and access to quality health services,’’ he said.

He expressed his government’s readiness to partner General Electric (GE), a Non-Governmental Organisation (NGO), in bringing quality health services to women and children in the country.

The envoy also said that his government, through USAID, had for many years been partnering Nigeria in improving health services as well as in educating Nigerians on the importance of health care.

PoliticsBuhari Wants To Islamize Nigeria – Gov. Fayose by olokeded(op): 7:25pm On Feb 27, 2016
At Governor Nyesom Wike’s inter– denominational thanksgiving and victory celebration event that held in Port-Harcourt today, Governor Ayodele Fayose of Ekiti state the only governor present, claimed in his speech that the Buhari government is taking steps towards making Nigeria an Islamic nation.

Governor Fayose, who referred to himself as Peter, the
rock who cannot be harmed by anyone, announced to the crowd that he had a secret to reveal.

He asked those present if he should reveal the big secret about the Buhari led, APC government.

After the crowd yelled that he should reveal it, Fayose said: ‘’They have started subtle moves to make Nigeria an Islamic nation, but God will stop them. This was done in 1984, it failed, it would fail again.’’

To underline an earlier boast that he could not be intimidated by the ruling party, Fayose further stated: ‘’I am not far away, I am in Ekiti. I am Ayo Fayose, Peter the rock, if you hit me you will be in trouble. If I hit you, you will be in trouble .’’

To substantiate his claim about the President’s plan to make Nigeria an Islamic nation, Fayose said: ‘’Why did
five of them go to Saudi Arabia to wait for our man there (referring to President Buhari and state governors), if they don’t have agenda.

“The agenda is coming small small, but we will resist it. Nigeria is a free nation where we proclaim the name of Jesus Christ freely, and we believe in Allah for those who are Muslims . This nation will not be taken for an Islamic nation,’’ Fayose said.

As a closing remark, the Ekiti State governor went on to declare and ‘’decree’’ the return of a PDP-led government in 2019.

PoliticsReligious Killings: 4,028 Nigerian Christians Killed In 2015 by olokeded(op): 5:18pm On Feb 27, 2016
A charity group has made a starling revelation about increasing religious persecution in northern Nigeria.

The group, Open Doors reported a 62 per cent increase in the violent killings of Christians in the region.

Open Doors is a charity that monitors religiously motivated violence and discrimination.

In its latest report, it shows that in 2015 there were 4,028 killings and 198 church attacks, nearly double those of the previous year.

In the five years between 2006 and 2014, 11,500 Christians were killed and 13,000 churches destroyed, forcing 1.3 million Christians to flee to safer areas of the country or risk smuggling routes to Europe, says the report.

The persecution of Christians is carried out by three groups: Islamist terror group, Boko Haram; Muslim Fulani herdsmen; and the Muslim religious and political elite that dominates government in northern Nigeria.

Lisa Pearce, chief executive of Open Doors UK and Ireland, said that even though Nigeria is officially a secular federal state with a constitution guaranteeing freedom of religion, the reality in northern Nigeria is very different.

“For decades, Christians in the region have suffered marginalisation and discrimination as well as targeted violence,” she added. “This is happening not only in the Sharia states of the far north where the pressure of Islam is hard felt, but also in the non-Sharia middle belt states where Sharia has not been formally implemented.

“Several areas of Northern Nigeria have seen Christianity virtually wiped out,” she said.

Last month, Open Doors, released its annual league table of the worst countries in which to be a Christian.

North Korea topped the list for overall persecution in 2015, while Nigeria had the largest number of Christians killed for their faith; recording more than half of the 7000-plus killings around the globe.

Christianity EtcDeeper Life Donates Flyover To Lagos State Government by olokeded(op): 7:47am On Feb 27, 2016
The Deeper Christian Life Ministry has begun the construction of a multi-million naira flyover bridge in Gbagada area of Lagos. This is part of its Corporate Social Responsibility to the Lagos State Government. Deeper Life will provide the funding for the flyover project while the Lagos State Government provides technical support.

The contract had already been awarded to Julius Berger Construction Company and the project would take off immediately.

In addition to the flyover, a four-level motor park will be constructed for worshipers in the cathedral to be able to park their vehicles.

At a sensitisation programme carried out by the Lagos State Transportation Management Authority, LASTMA on Thursday, residents of Oduwaye and adjourning communities in Gbagada area of Lagos State were urged to cooperate with the contractors handling the project, with government promising to put machinery in motion to decongest traffic in the area. During the programme, LASTMA Deputy Controller of Operation, Mr. Philip Femi Ogunwale said the construction work was massive and would likely lead to traffic build-up in Gbagada area, saying all through the construction period, LASTMA would deploy men and material resources to reduce the hardship.

“This stakeholders’ meeting is to sensitise people in this locality on the proposed bridge to be constructed by the Deeper Life Bible Ministry. The flyover bridge, upon completion, will ease traffic gridlock in this area as residents will no longer need to access the underground but move via the flyover bridge.

“The traffic gridlock that they normally experience, especially when they have programmes in the Cathedral will no longer be there. Those who have no business in the church will just pass through the bridge and go their way,” he said.

Anchor University

Work has been tidied up at the private university of Pastor W.F Kumuyi’s Deeper Life Christian Ministry located in Lagos. Anchor University, located at Ayobo, a Lagos suburb, where the headquarters of Pastor Kumuyi’s church is also located, is now set for take-off, City People can inform you.A visit to the brand new campus at Ayobo last week by City People revealed that all is now set for the take-off of the institution. Every necessary facility is now ready and we learnt that the administrative staff for the institution have been employed too.

Anchor University is running 5 faculties including; Arts, Education, Social Sciences, Humanities, School of Management and Accounting. Based on the vision of the owner, Anchor University would imbibe educational and moral values to millions of Nigerians, while making its charges affordable to all.The campus, sitting on a large expanse of land consists different structures including hostels, faculties, administrative blocks, chalets, laboratories etc. The Deeper Life headquarters area in Ayobo is now wearing a totally new and beautiful look. Funds for the university project according to reports were sourced from the ministry’s partner members and the Pastor Kumuyi himself.

Deeper Life Cathedral

Deeper Life is about completing its headquarters church valued over N5 billion in Gbagada. The 30,000 capacity church project has gone on for about 13 years managed by Cappa and D’alberto. The project had been billed for completion in 2012 but the church but suffered some setbacks. If the cathedral is completed this year, it will be the 4th largest in the world.

The ministry is also building secondary schools, a 900 acre conference centre among many other projects.

Former Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crime Commission (EFCC) Ibrahim Lamorde, declared wanted by the Nigerian Senate, has surfaced in Kuru Jos.

The senate has threatened to issue a warrant of arrest against him if he fails to show up to defend an alleged diversion of N1 trillion recovered by EFCC under his watch.

But Lamorde is now a student of the National Institute For Policy and Strategic Studies and rebuffed reporters attempt to wheedle some reaction out of him over the Senate threat.

He is one the 67 top public servants and private sector executives nominated for the Senior Executive Course (SEC) 38 at the end of which successful participants will earn mni (member Nigerian Institute).

As reporters kept pestering Lamorde,a police officer,with questions on the development,he said: “Please, I’m here for a course. I’m here for pure academic research work. I will not discuss any other thing. “I will need to take permission from my sponsors, the Nigeria Police Force, before I comment on anything outside this course.”

The course participants are drawn from the military, para-military organisations, the Police Force, Labour, civil service and the academic.

All the participants arrived NIPSS two weeks before the inauguration of the SEC yesterday by the Vice President Profesor Yemi Osinbanjo.

Lamorde’s predecessor, Nuhu Ribadu was also sent to the institute immediately he was removed as EFCC boss.

Politics''if You Call Me A Godfather, It Is Alright'' - Bola Tinubu by olokeded(op): 5:05pm On Feb 20, 2016
Bola Tinubu National leader of the All Progressives Congress, APC says it is alright to call him godfather.


Defending his role in Lagos politics as a political godfather, Tinubu said “godfather is not negative but god lords are. They are the mafias. Godfathers exist even in the church. If you call me a godfather, it is alright. I have many children everywhere.”

Explaining his position further, he said “You are talking about imposition in a democracy. If you are a strong adviser, you would get blackmailed; you have seen great qualities in an individual and one that has capacity to do good; you identify those you believe can deliver on the evolution of good governance. I have a responsibility to recommend. My party has a right to reject the person. When I identified Babatunde Fashola, some people shouted imposition but when he started to blossom like flowers in the garden, Fashola now became their child. The umbilical chord is buried and the baby has survived. In democracy, sometimes, you have the sprinkle of dictatorship too when you know that you are working on the overall interest of the people. You have facts that some people do not have; so you do not get angry.”

PoliticsNassarawa Governor Sacks 10,000 Workers- NLC by olokeded(op): 11:51am On Feb 20, 2016
Organized Labour in Nasarawa state has alleged that the State governor, Umaru Tanko Al-Makura has sacked over 10,000 workers since coming into office as governor.

The union which said only irresponsible Government would sacked over 10,000 workers, flay public announcement run by the state owned broadcast outfit, Nasarawa Broadcasting Corporation calling on the staff to resume work.

“The Public announcement urging Nasarawa State Workers not to embark on strike is uncharitable propaganda and blackmail orchestrated by the state Government,” the Labour leader, Comrade Abdullahi Adeka said.

He said: “The present regime sacked over 7000 Local Government staff over 100 staff of "Nasarawa on the move,” a state transport company were fired and the company grounded. Where is the Lafia Hotel and its staff today?

Comrade Abdullahi said over 70 of the staff were left redundant in Nigeria Newsday. “In addition, 27 Permanent Secretaries were fired from the inception of Al-Makura’s regime,” the union said.

Abdullahi said a state like Nasarawa which cannot pay workers salaries has embarked on flamboyant projects that have no relevance to the citizens.

“On 500 housing units, Al-Makura did not construct a single bedroom for workers instead he was only privileged to re-allocate a project that was initiated and executed by the former Governor, Aliyu Akwe Doma . Since January 2015 Local Government workers are being paid on percentage till date. However, it should be noted that salary in percentage is unlawful and any responsible Government should not even contemplate it,” the Labour leader said.

“To say that workers in Nasarawa State constitute just 1% of the 1.8m people and consumed 95% of the statutory allocation thereby leaving 5% for other capital projects is fallacious and a misrepresentation of facts.”

“Workers and their dependents constitute more than 70% of the entire population of Nasarawa state. This can be testified by the fact that economic activities in the state have been paralyzed due to the non-payment of January,2016 salary.''

“It is duty bound on Government to pay salaries constantly to her workers. So long as the monthly statutory allocations from the federation accounts have not being generated, it should also be noted that salary is being earned by workers and not a gift,” Comrade Abdullahi said a statement.

The state government had earlier said January salary was ready and urged the workers to call off the strike. The state government could not react to allegations raised by the workers on the sack.

PoliticsGovernor Wike Lifts Suspension Of Finance Commissioner, Accountant-general by olokeded(op): 8:19am On Feb 15, 2016
Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Ezenwo Wike on Valentine Day lifted the suspension of the State Finance Commissioner, Dr Magnus Kpakol and the State Accountant-General, Sir Abere Dagogo.
Addressing Rivers State public servants and political leaders during a Special Valentine Couples Night organised by his wife, Justice Eberechi Suzzette Nyesom-Wike at the Government House, Port Harcourt, Governor Wike said the suspension was lifted in deference to the interventions by different political leaders and as a show of love during the valentine.

Governor Wike charged political appointees to differentiate between friendship and governance in the discharge of their respective functions.

He said:

"Governance is a serious business. It is not friendship. When it comes to governance I won't know friendship.

"I will lift the suspension on the Finance Commissioner and the Accountant-General, but they must henceforth take their functions seriously. Next time, I will not take into consideration the please of political stakeholders".

He advised all political appointees to take their responsibilities seriously as his administration must succeed in the delivery of projects contained in his development blueprint.

Special Assistant to the Rivers State Governor,
