depezee:Buhari is using the combined resources of the Nigeria nation to rehabiliated all of Nigeria incl. long neglected Eastern Nigerian roads in just 1 1/2 years. Your hero GEJ put most of that same money into his and his friends pockets, Easterners continued to die on the roads he has abandoned. Charity should begin at home. But to effectual buffoon, looting begins at home |
erico2k2:Typical pdp lazy wailer. Fact is that Beyalsa is 100% part of old Rivers, which is 100% part of Old Eastern Region. So today both GEJ and Beyalsa remains part of Eastern Region. Got it ![]() ![]() You're online, stop being lazy, just google old Eastern Region and you will not exhibit your ignorance in public again. There have never been a region called South. There was Southern Protectorate of Nigeria which comprises of Western Region, Eastern Region and later Midwest Region. |
Icecomrade:Well just like you cried that Edo is pdp, your eyes will clear come 2019. Fact is that GEJ did NOT get up to 15% of votes allocated to him in the entire Eastern Region states of SS and SE. Come 2019, APC controls the Army, the Police, the DSS, lets see where pdp if its sttill by then, will get the goons to enforece the writing of fake results of over 1 million votes in all Eatern Region states. |
Icecomrade:Your deceitful thief and hero awarded the contract 6 months before he got kicked out as a pre-election gimick and he did not back it up with money. Why wait 6 months out of 6 years in office to do charity to his "home" Charity begins at "home" not outside Eastern Region!!! |
olihilistic:Read the article and stop being lazy like most pdp wailers |
OBAFEMIawolowo:Did you read the article before commenting? A motorist Ekenna says thank God the work is now ongoing. in 2019 he will thank Buhari with his vote!!! |
locosis007:They are doing what your corrupt pdp, thief, GEJ from Eastern Region could not do in 6 years of mindless looting and you are here saying "make dem do am first" Get this thru your pdp skull. Buhari is NOT corrupt GEJ. No contractor will leave thoes sites until all the two express roads are 100% complete |
Martino240:Dont worry. As an Easterner, I will call the names for you. pdp and wailers think they can decieve all Easterners. They cannot. Buhari is working is working. And Easterners will support his relection in 2019!!! |
Unbelieveable!! What the ineffective bufoon, First Executive Nigerian leader from Eastern Region, since after the Civil war, GEJ, could not do in 6 Years, an honest President Buhari, from far away Katsina is now doing within a year and half in office. Shame on all wailers from the Eastern Region who think the patently corrupt pdp speakes for the Easterners. |
http://www.vanguardngr.com/2016/11/fg-moves-rehabilitate-enugu-onitsha-enugu-port-harcourt-express-roads/ By Anayo Okoli UMUAHIA RELIEF appears on the way for motorists and commuters plying the Enugu-Onitsha and Enugu-Port Harcourt express roads, as the Federal Government has mobilized contractors to return to sites to rehabilitate the roads that have been death traps for some times. Work on the Enugu-Onitsha highway was abandoned over 10 years ago. It will be recalled that eminent citizens from the south east, traditional rulers among others have decried the deplorable condition of the ever busy road that links people from the Northern states to the commercial city of Onitsha to no avail. Also, remedial works were done on a portion of one lane on the Enugu-Okigwe-Umuahia-Port Harcourt road, between Okigwe and Umuahia, before it was abandoned early in the year. President Muhammadu Buhar But recently, contactors were seen mobilizing their equipment back to their sites at the 9th Mile end of the Enugu-Onitsha road and on the Enugu-Port Harcourt highway. On the Enugu-Port Harcourt road, two contractors have mobilized for work. One of the contractors have commenced clearing the maiden from Awgu axis of Enugu down to Isiagu Junction and Abia State boundary which was overgrown by weeds. It was also observed that the firm has secured and cleared a huge space after Mpu junction and putting structures as camp for its workers and equipment. The contractor, it was gathered, is rehabilitating the Enugu to Abia State boundary axis of the road. At the Abia State portion, beginning from Lokpanta in Umunneochi council of area, another contractor, was seen on site filling the dangerous potholes at the Lokpanta Cattle Market which had been a nightmare for the road users. The contractor has commenced tarring of the other lane from the Okigwe-Umuahia axis, having completed one lane earlier before it pulled out its men and equipment from site. “We thank God that they have remembered the area again. If you know what we spend to maintain our vehicles, you have pity on us. Whatever amount you make goes back to the maintenance of the vehicle”, a commercial motorist, who gave his name as Ekenna said.

Only a shamelessly corrupt and Mimiko-compromised "Acting" CJN, Onnogen, will get himself involved in a pre-election matter, which is not time bound. But the patently corrupt Onnogen, obviously, will not refund the Ondo money given to him by Mimiko, after his puppet jegede, gets humiliated on saturday by Aketi. Never in the history of the Nigerian electoral jurisprudence has the so called Supreme Court gotten itself invoved in a pre-lection matter, that is just 4 days away. It is evident of the rot that Buhari is trying to clean up. it is too little too late!!! No force on this planet can stop Aketi's easy victory on saturday, even with mimiko puppet, jegede on the ballot for the most most corrupt criminal organization on the face of the planet , the pdp. |

The Evil Bill Gates, now Nigerians know the truth |
The Global Prolife Alliance (GPA) Council has identified American billionaire, Bill Gates as a major foreign sponsor of the Boko Haram insurgency in Nigeria’s North East region. Speaking with journalists in Owerri, the chairman of the GPA, Dr. Philip Njemanze disclosed that Gates and Monsanto were sponsoring the insurgency in the region using their biotechnology companies. According to him, the major aim of the insurgency was to capture the food security of Nigeria and control Africa’s largest nation by population and economy, adding that this could only be possible by fighting to displace the indigenous farmers in the country and replace them with Genetically Modified Organisms, GMOs corporate farms in the North East food basket region of Nigeria. Njemanze, revealed that the name Boko Haram was only used as a cover-up in the terrorism attacks, saying that the actual perpetrators were hired assassins and mercenaries by the Blackwater (also called Xe-Service, and now Academi) private army owned by Gates and Mosanto. He disclosed that Blackwater which was purchased in 2009, “began the recruitment of former child soldiers from Liberia and Sierra-Leone of what remained of Charles Taylor’s army in Liberia” and trained them in Ougadougou in Burkina Faso despite the ban of the company by President Johnson-Sirleaf of Liberia. The GPA chief added that the Liberians and Sierra-Leoneans were brought to Nigeria as ECOMOG boys to fight as Boko Haram. He stated that the assignment of the insurgents was to displace the farmers in the North East and create fall in the agricultural production of the country as well as to compel the federal government to adopt large farms that grow Bill Gates /Monsanto GMOs crops to feed the nation. With this strategy, he said that such staple food as rice, cassava, maize, sorghum, millet would be replaced by Gates/Monsanto variants, thereby effectively surrendering the food security for the over 170 million Nigerians to them. “The volume production of these GMOs crops will come at lower prices than that of the organic food grown elsewhere in Nigeria and they will price out of the market the conventional organic foods, leaving the Bill Gates/Monsanto crops the dominant crops for food in Nigeria”. Njemanze also raised an alarm about the high technology approaches used by Gates in executing the terrorism plan. According to him, Gates’ recent interview in Daily Trust where he said he was quoted to have said “Bill Gates Foundation was carrying out satellite Remote Sensing of the North East area to study migration patterns of people” clearly supported the assertion of Global Prolife Alliance, adding that what that statement meant was that the Satellite images against the Nigerian law were being used as espionage in the state of emergency to identify military installations and how to evade and attack them. He also attacked the electronic wallets (cell phones) given to farmers by Bill Gates through the federal ministry of agriculture to provide the farmers with agro-credits for fertilizer and GMO crops, describing it as wallets of death. According to him, the offer was made and accepted in total disregard of the evidence presented by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) that GMOs does not increase crop yields, but rather may lead to decrease in overall crop production, damage to fertile grounds and dangerous health risks were still being uncovered including cancers and other debilitating diseases. With the cell phones which have Global Positioning System (GPS) device, he continued, the position of every farmer would be known to the Boko Haram insurgents, who he said use satellite images to know the location of the Joint Task Force (JTF) and then using the cell phones to track down the farmers. The group called on the federal government of Nigeria to investigate Bill Gates activities in Nigeria and not to sweep the allegations under the carpets because according to Njemanze, the group had very strong evidence to support its claims. http://www.reunionblackfamily.com/apps/blog/show/42206627-how-bill-gates-is-sponsoring-boko-haram-insurgency-in-nigeria |

http://www.vanguardngr.com/2016/11/alleged-corruption-justices-okoro-ademola-ngwuta-risk-58-yrs-jail/ By Soni Daniel, Northern Region Editor, Henry Umoru & Ikechukwu Nnochiri ABUJA— Three weeks after the night raid on their homes by security agencies, the Federal Government will, today, formally file corruption charges against three senior court judges out of the seven, who were arrested and quizzed, last month. The three jurists, whose cases are being filed today before the Federal High Court in Abuja, are Justices John Inyang Okoro and Sylvester Ngwuta of the Supreme Court, and a Federal High Court judge, Justice Adeniyi Ademola. The case files of the three suspects, which Vanguard sighted, last night, border mainly on money laundering and illegal possession of firearms. Ngwuta, Ademola and Okoro While Justices Okoro and Ngwuta are to be charged with alleged money laundering, Ademola is facing charges of alleged money laundering and illegal possession of firearms. The judges may risk no fewer than 58 years in jail, if convicted. Sources close to the Federal High Court in Abuja, confirmed to Vanguard that the cases are to be filed today by the Federal Government to signal a legal battle that may shake and reshape the Nigerian judiciary. According to court records available to Vanguard, the Federal Government is charging them to court, pursuant to Sections 104 and 379 of the Administration of Criminal Justice Act, 2015. Specifically, Justice Adeniyi Ademola is slammed with four charges, with two bordering on alleged money laundering and others pinned on alleged illegal possession of firearms and ammunition. Ademola’s alleged offences COUNT ONE—STATEMENT OF OFFENCE Money laundering, contrary to section 16 (1) (d) of Money Laundering Act 2011 (as amended) and punishable under section 16 (2) (B) of the same Act.

COUNT FOUR—STATEMENT OF OFFENCE Illegal possession of Ammunition contrary to section 8 of the Fire Arms Act, 2004 and punishable under section 27 (1) (b) (i) of the same Act. According to legal experts, the judge could be jailed for up to one year on each count of illegal possession of firearms and ammunition, if convicted. If that applies, it means Ademola can spend up to two years on the two counts of illegal possession of firearms and ammunition and seven years each on the two counts of money laundering, bringing the total jail term to 16 years on the four counts. Justice John Inyang Okoro of the Supreme Court In the case of Justice Inyang Okoro of the Supreme Court, the Federal Government is slamming him with three count charges, all bordering on money laundering and the offences can land him in jail for no fewer than 21 years, if convicted. According to lawyers familiar with money laundering offences, a suspect convicted for laundering can get a maximum of seven years on each count. He is accused by the Federal Government of receiving $20,000 from a former Governor; N18,589,330 from a businessma, in addition to keeping the sum of $38,833.00 cash at home as at the night of October 7, 2016 when the DSS stormed his Abuja residence in search of the proceeds of crime.

According to the court papers, Ngwuta, like Justice Okoro, kept huge cash in local and foreign denominations, contrary to the Money Laundering Act. The DSS, which raided his home on the night of October 7, 2016, said it mopped up cash of N35.208 m, $319,596 and £ 25,890 from his home in Abuja. The judge later cried foul, and claimed the cash was planted.

Idakwo said the DSS, which conducted investigation into the three cases, affirmed that the investigation had been concluded and that he had the consent of the agency to depose to the affidavit. The officer also confirmed that a Principal State Counsel in the Office of the Department of Public Prosecutions of the Federation had confirmed to him that the opinion of the prosecution was that the investigation had so far revealed a prima facie case against the Defendants. Vanguard learned, last night, that the DSS would at the trial, rely on the Authority of the National Security Agencies Decree of 1986 (Cap 278 LFN) to justify its sting operation, which resulted in the huge cash and money laundering charges against the suspected judges. Section 3 (1) of the law states: “For the purpose of facilitating the discharge of its functions under this instrument, personnel of the State Security Service, are hereby conferred with powers of a Superior Police Officer in respect of searches and arrests.”[/b] ... http://www.vanguardngr.com/2016/11/alleged-corruption-justices-okoro-ademola-ngwuta-risk-58-yrs-jail/ |

akpanbaba:November 8. In US elections can be predicted based on scientific polls. |
Trump never had a chance against the Clinton machine. Congrats to the first female President of the US. Hillary Rodham Clinton |
THE LOSER The two major party conventions, the three presidential debates, and various scandals large and small—all these features of the 2016 presidential general election have come and gone. Now the campaign draws to a close. And one outcome seems increasingly likely: Donald J. Trump will lose. We put it that way because Trump—after his impressive and even unprecedented outsider victory in the Republican primaries—has done more to lose the general election than his opponent, Hillary Clinton, has done to win it. It's also prudent to note that with two weeks left in an unpredictable political year, we could be surprised. But if history is any guide, a candidate who has never been ahead in the general election campaign and now trails by about six points (if not more) in the polls—and who has a 60 percent or so unfavorable rating—will not prevail on November 8. On that evening, Donald Trump will stand before us as a loser. Not that there's necessarily anything wrong with that. Winston Churchill taught his fellow citizens that we could only act so as to deserve victory. Leo Strauss remarked in a letter to National Review that "The argument which is concerned exclusively with calculations of success, and is based on blindness to the nobility of the effort, is vulgar." History is replete with undeserved losses and noble defeats. Trump seems not to understand this elementary fact of the human condition. Perhaps for that reason, "loser" is one of his favorite epithets. And those of us who do not admire him will—let's be honest—enjoy bestowing this sobriquet on him. But of course we should remember, "let us judge not that we be not judged." What we can and should judge are the intimations from Trump that he intends to be a sore loser, a very sore loser, a big league sore loser. That's no surprise. On the other hand, maybe it's all a head fake. Trump may be setting the bar low in order to get untoward credit for anything resembling a normal concession speech on the evening of November 8. In either case, the republic will survive. It will do so with less damage if Republicans, especially those who are Trump supporters, repudiate ahead of time his lame excuses for losing, his invented claims of a rigged result, his willingness to break long-established norms of appropriate public behavior. There is one civic task Republicans can perform for our country in the final two weeks of this campaign: trying to ensure that Trump the loser stands alone, that his complaints fall on deaf ears, that his rabble-rousing fails to rouse the usual rabble. But there is more that can be done in these next two weeks to help the country. Republicans still have some chance to hold the Senate and decent odds of holding the House. As Fred Barnes explained in this space last week, voting for the down-ticket Republicans would be a service not just to conservatism but to the country. The last thing America needs is President Hillary Clinton, Speaker Nancy Pelosi, and Majority Leader Chuck Schumer riding roughshod for two years over free markets, individual liberties, and civil society. The task of the next two weeks is simple: Save every salvageable Republican candidate for the Senate and the House from being dragged under by the dead weight of a sinking Trump. This means the national party and the candidates themselves have to stop being coy about what they expect the outcome of the presidential race to be. They need to make clear that Hillary Clinton is likely to be our next president. They need to paint as vivid a picture as they can of what it would mean for our society if she's complemented by a Democratic Congress, not checked and balanced by a Republican one. The American people should be reasonably receptive to such a message. In the presidential elections since 1952, voters have returned a divided government to Washington more often than not. The case for doing so again should resonate strongly when the next president is viewed as unfavorably as Hillary Clinton is. A majority of Americans really did believe in hope and change in 2008 and were happy enough to give Barack Obama a Democratic Congress. A majority of Americans aren't thrilled at the prospect of President Hillary Clinton. For that matter, her slogan—"Stronger Together"—lends itself perfectly well to bipartisanship in Washington. Let her be stronger together with Speaker Paul Ryan and Majority Leader Mitch McConnell. http://www.weeklystandard.com/the-loser/article/2004996 |

After my investigations, I discovered that Jamilu Lawal who lives in the same community was responsible for my daughters’ disappearance. “I requested that a formal complaint about the incident be lodged to the Commissioner of Police in Kastina, Jamilu and his parents were summoned to the police station and he not only admitted to abducting my daughter Habiba but also revealed that she was presently being kept at the Palace of the Emir of Kastina. “On arrival at the Palace, the Emir informed me that my daughter has been converted from Christianity to Islam henceforth, there is no longer any relationship between me and my daughter and we can no longer inherit each other. “He further informed me that he has received the sum if N50, 000.00 as dowry from Jamilu Ibrahim for my daughter therefore, he will give her out in marriage in accordance with Islamic rites and injunctions. He accused me of defaming him at the Police Station and I was threatened, intimidated and coerced to sign an apology drafted on my behalf in his Palace. “As at today, I am aware that the Emir of Kastina has gone ahead to marry out my little girl without my consent, having received a dowry he is not entitled to receive, it fills me with so much pain and grief to realize that my daughter, who will turn 15 this Saturday the 15th may be celebrating her birthday in a forced marriage. “I appeal to all well-meaning Nigerians and those in authority to help join hands to see that my daughter is released to me though the violations already done to her person may be irreversible. I further appeal that the Incident be well investigated and diligently prosecuted.” Programme Coordinator for Stafanos Foundation, Mark Lipdo, a Non-Governmental Organization assisting the parents with the release of Habiba stated. “We have been trying to intervene in the conflicts going on in Nigeria, we believe in the human rights of all citizens and encourage that fundamental rights be upheld at all times to maintain a sane society. “Many times we call on the appropriate authorities to act like in the case of Habiba Isiyaku, such incidents can make conflicts continue in Nigeria. “Habiba is a girl that just completed her Junior Secondary school and had very good grades, she had so much prospects only to be abducted, when her parents were invited to the Emirs palaceN she was brought out in a hijab and he told them that they no longer have any relationship with the girl anymore because she has been converted to Islam and that he the Emir of Katsina has now become the father of the girl and he can do whatever he wants with her. “After a few days that the father was sent back, we followed with the Commissioner of Police to try to get the girl, we took a lawyer with us as Stefanos Foundation to stand with the parents to demand for their rights but the rights where denied, we petitioned the Inspector General (IG) of Police here in Abuja to see if he can secure the girls release but till date, he is yet to respond, we brought the parents to Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) for help, to see if they can help secure her release and they said that they will be following the matter up with the IG, but up till today, nothing, we have been in this town for three days now we have not heard anything from CAN and the IG. “The girl is a minor and things like this has to stop happening in this country because if it continues, people are going to result to self-help because where a person has been told his right but he it has been deliberately refused it, if the person has any strength, he will result to self-help.” http://thenationonlineng.net/kastina-emir-accused-marrying-off-kidnapped-14-year-old-girl/ |
Unimaginable123:Of course, just like with DSS, the FBI usually obtains a magistrate warrant before their raids. However, just like in the US, subject to prevailing warrant laws, their may be special occasions where if a Magistrate is not available and the need to protect evidence requires immediate action, the law enforcement officers may act and then later seek to perfect the warrant. Understand that invading without a warrant may void the DSS and AGF's case later, so they rarely proceed on such missions without a warrant. As there is always a 24 Hour standby Magistrate who can sign the warrant at any time day or night, it is more likely than not that the DSS indeed obtained a warrant and chose to raid at the time of their own choosing. |
