Politics / What!!! El-rufai’s Preaching Law Will Promote Peace, Love In Kaduna – Aide by onyipetersblog(f): 4:31am On Apr 10, 2016
Uba Sani, Special Adviser to Governor Nasir El-Rufai of Kaduna State on Political Affairs, says the Preaching Bill, proposed by the state government is not new. Successive administrations in Kaduna State who had contended with bloody and destructive religious riots had at one point or the other resorted to legislation to rein in religious extremism in the state. So far, the most far reaching of the legislation remains the Regulation of Religious Preaching Edict No. 7 of 1984, which has been amended twice – in 1987 and 1996 >>>

Politics / Faleke Responsible For Kogi Assembly Crisis – Lawmakers by onyipetersblog(f): 3:05am On Mar 12, 2016
The Majority Leader of the Kogi State House of Assembly, Friday Sani, has accused James Faleke, the running mate to the late governorship candidate of the All Progressives Congress in Kogi State, Abubakar Audu, of being responsible for the crisis currently rocking the state legislative chamber.

The House of Representatives on Wednesday took over the Kogi State House of Assembly. The development followed the crisis in the Assembly over the impeachment of its Speaker, Mr. Momoh Jimoh-Lawal.

At a plenary on Thursday in Lokoja, the Kogi State capital, Sani said the decision of the House of Representatives to take over the Assembly was illegal because the leadership of the state legislature had approached the Federal High Court, sitting in Lokoja in suit no FHC/LKJ/16/16 to stop the takeover.

Sani said it was clear that Faleke was allegedly trying to bring down the administration of Governor Yahaya Bello.

He said, “It is clear to me that Faleke cannot distance himself from what is happening in the Assembly because he is determined to bring down the government of Alhaji Yahaya Bello at all cost. The decision of the House of Representatives to take over the Kogi State Assembly shows that there is a vested interest which poses danger to our democracy.

“In 2012, when Bello Abdulahi was impeached as the Speaker of the Assembly and Jimoh Lawal was made the Speaker by seven of 25 members of the House, Faleke, the Speaker of the House of Representatives,Yakubu Dogara, and the Majority Leader of the House of Representatives, Femi Gbajabiamila, were all in the House of Representatives at that time but they did not invoke Section 11 (4)of the constitution in spite of the petition submitted by Abdulahi Bello.”

In his speech on the floor of the House on Thursday, the Speaker, Umar Ahmed Imam, called on the National Assembly to note that the Kogi State Assembly was not unable to perform its functions.

According to him, the issue concerning the legality of the impeachment of the former Kogi Speaker are to be determined by the Federal High Court.

He accused the House of Representatives of disobeying an order by the Federal High Court restraining the National Assembly from interference by seeking the appearance of same before it .

The Speaker said that the action of the House of Representatives, despite the court injunction, was not only prejudicial but an abuse of court process.

Efforts by one of our correspondents to speak with Faleke on Thursday proved abortive as his phone was switched off. He also did not respond to a text message sent to him as of the time of filing this report.

Politics / Edo 2016 Guber: Oshiomhole Asks More Women To Join State Guber Race by onyipetersblog(f): 5:44am On Mar 11, 2016
Governor Adams Oshiomhole of Edo State has called on more women to join the state’s governorship race before the primaries in June, saying that women must be bold to vie for political offices as men were unwilling to yield the ground to them on a platter of gold.

Speaking at an event put together by his wife, Iara Oshiomhole, to celebrate the 2016 International Women’s Day, Oshiomhole said that women have the number to win political offices and should leverage on their number. He said: “I am happy that a woman has stepped out for the governorship primaries. It is important that we do not expect that men will get to a point where they will be tired of domination and will say, ‘you know, we have dominated you enough, you women, come and take over power.’ It is never going to happen. The only way women will take power is not to wait for men to beg them to do so.

They have to stand their ground because in Edo State, two out of every three votes are cast by women. “It, therefore, means that women have the numbers, they have the patience and what it takes to contest and win elections. It is not about money. If it were about money, I wouldn’t have been able to contest and win. The first thing is your heart, your conviction and then your brain and God has given everything to women.”

Politics / Blame Gov. Wike For Rivers State Killings: APC by onyipetersblog(f): 5:26am On Mar 10, 2016
The National Working Committee of the All Progressives Congress has said it holds the Governor of Rivers State, Nyesom Wike, personally responsible for the killing spree in the state.

The acting National Chairman of the party, Chief Segun Oni, said this at a press briefing in Abuja, on Wednesday.
According to him, utterances credited to the governor ahead of the upcoming rerun in the state have turned the state into “a killing field.”
The APC said it was drawing the attention of security agencies and other relevant bodies to the latest string of gruesome politically-motivated killings targeting the APC members.

Oni said, “As chief security officer of the state, we hold the governor responsible for what is happening in the state. He has to sit up.”

The party noted that the violence was directly linked to the March 19, 2016 Rivers State rerun into the National Assembly and state House of Assembly.

Oni added, “Rivers State has been turned into a killing field, with APC members being murdered on a daily basis. APC members in Rivers State are fast becoming endangered species.

“On Saturday night, March 5, 2016, masked gunmen first shot dead Franklin Obi, the APC ward chairman in Omoku, headquarters of Ogab/Egbema/Ndoni council and then beheaded him. The gunmen went ahead and killed his wife and 18-year-old son, Bestman.

“The APC NWC also received reports that four APC members were recently killed in Obibi, Etche Local Government Areas in Rivers State. Gabriel Cookey was clubbed to death in Opobo, Opobo/Nkoro council. In the last two weeks, over 30 APC members had been killed in different parts of the state.”

The APC described the security situation in Rivers State as clearly an affront to the Federal Government’s power to protect life and property within its territory.

The party also appealed to security agencies to, as a matter of urgency, rise up to stem the tide of killings and other forms of violence in the state.

It insisted that contrary to claims by the state government that the killings were as a result of cult-related violence, the killings were politically-motivated.

The APC described the killings as a real emergency which was distressing, tragic and a huge source of worry to the party.

In his reaction, Governor Nyesom Wike described the allegations as “baseless, irresponsible and out of tune with the realities on the ground.”

Wike, who spoke through his Special Assistant on Media, Simeon Nwakaudu, in a telephone interview on Wednesday, said, “The violence is cult-related, it is not political. The governor is working with the relevant security agencies to bring the situation under control. It is cheap for anyone to try to make political capital out of the misery of our people.”
