Calabar Blog has exclusively obtained a telephone recording where Iyanya threatened “Last Prophet,” an OAP of Hit FM, Calabar, Cross River State, after his show, Otwetwe, yesterday.

On the show, he had joked about Iyanya parting ways with Ubi Franklin, saying “he wondered if Iyanya was planning to return back to Calabar where he started from.”

Shortly after the show, Iyanya called him, saying:

“I don’t depend on my strive , but I depend on God to take me further, this is Iyanya speaking, brother let this be the first and the last time that you will make that kind of statement that you made about me on your show.

I have never had any issue with you, don’t ever in your whole life mention my issue with Ubi on your show. I’ve had different people call me to make that report, the next time you do I’ll show you another side of me.”

In a chat, Last Prophet, said: “I was shocked at Iyanya’s phone call. I’m a comedian and OAP, my show is a comedy show in pidgin English. All I did was make jokes from the situation, which is what anyone else would have done. I only feel bad because I’m sure he would not do that to any OAP in Lagos; he did it to me because he feels I’m in Calabar and he can just threaten me like that.”

Again, President Mohammadu Buhari has come to the rescue of his ministers and aides, absolving them of any corrupt practices.

This came on a day the Vice President Yemi Osinbajo, refuted claims in some quarters that the anti-corruption war of President Muhammadu Buhari’s government was targeted at members of the opposition party and other perceived enemies, saying the view was grossly incorrect and unfounded.

Recall that the President had, during his first media chat last December, said none of his ministers was corrupt.

“I don’t think I tolerate corruption, I don’t think I picked anybody that I know will embarrass my government. But if you have any evidence about any of my ministers, I accept responsibility for the 36 ministers that I have.

‘’I don’t think I took anybody among the ministers who has got a case in court. Tell me one out of the 36. I don’t think I will deliberately make that mistake,” he said.

He spoke against the back-drop of reports, particularly by online media, that the immediate past Group Managing Director of Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation, NNPC,, who is also Minister of State for Petroleum, Dr Ibe Kachikwu, was being investigated over crude oil swap deals and gas lifting during his tenure as GMD of the petroleum corporation.

In a statement by his media aide, Mr. Femi Adesina, President Buhari appealed for decent and civilized comments, particularly when it had to do with the integrity of those serving the country.

“Terrible and unfounded comments about other people’s integrity are not good. We are not going to spare anybody who soils his hands, but people should please wait till such individuals are indicted,” the President said.

Meanwhile, Vice President Yemi Osinbajo has refuted claims in some quarters that the anti-corruption war of President Muhammadu Buhari’s government was targeted at members of the opposition party and other perceived enemies,

Osinbajo, who fielded questions from newsmen at the end of the 27th Ordinary session of African Union in Kigali, Rwanda, yesterday, said the speculation was the handiwork of those who wanted to trivialize the anti-corruption war and stop the government from recovering stolen funds.

He said: “I think it’s entirely absurd, I think that view is absurd and without foundation or basis whatsoever. We look at corruption from all possible facets.

‘’If you look at, for example, corruption on the military, from military procurement, obviously the only individuals responsible for that could be persons who had held office within the period in question and that has been done and clearly the opposition, APC, was not in office at that time.”

Still waitinq for their ususal comment of ''I never had a girlfriend in school''

Nah!!! With the the kind of 'unserious' friends he mingled with in school, I was surprise he could achieve such height.

If you know Unical....then you go understand say dat height no be beans.

Never has anyone achieved such feat in the university of calabar agora!

Egbe Agala Eja, blazed the trail by graduating as the best student with a CGPA of 4.84 on a 5 point scale.

The student who was of Histopathology, Department of Medical Laboratory Science (MLS), was awarded the prize for Excellence in the recent convocation ceremony by the institution. This is indeed a new high flying academic record in the institution.

NHB garnered that such record is the first of its kind in the 29-year history of the department.

The young scholar was during the his induction, offered an automatic employment by the University on completion of his internship programme and National Youth Service Corps (NYSC).

In an open speech, he thanked the management for the kind gesture, but also brought her attention to the urgent need to provide modern laboratory equipment in order to enhance advanced analytical procedures like autoradiography and molecular biology in the institution.

However, he sang the praise of the University and gave her kudos for remaining the foremost institution for the study of Medical Lab Science in the country but begged that improvement be made in specific areas as afore mentioned.

In the same vein, the interim Registrar of MSLCN, Mr. Godwin Akpitaye, while addressing the graduating students of the department, advised that they should improve on the knowledge acquired in school and be conversant with the new techniques, stressing that there is no short- cut to achieving success in the profession.

I wish someone can 4ward dz article to pmb

I was about to reply you that he reads articles as this one on a daily bases; but I quickly remembered that reading and understanding are different.
He reads... But sadly, he NEVER get to understand.

Lalasticlala why not say happy Allah here too

Kondomatic:
You don't seem to know your general well bro, he will rather die than resign because from the time he left in 80s to the time he got back into power, he never did a thing worthy of emulation.
All he did was contest, loose and contest again.
No books written, no foundation, no nothing.
He just can't resign.

Without ANY meaningful contribution for years Nigerians still 'elected' him to be their President.
Hmmmmm!

Very interesting article.
I see Buhari making history like Jonathan did.
GEJ became the first sitting president in Africa to lose in an election to an opposition party and peacefully hand over power.
PMB can make history as an African President to have voluntarily resigned.
I don't care what his reasons will or should be, we can deliberate on that later.
PED

By Dele Sobowale

“The president cannot make clouds to rain, he cannot make the corn grow, he cannot make business to be good”, President William Taft, 1857-1930. (VANGUARD BOOK OF QUOTATIONS, VBQ p 199).

Taft was American President from 1909 to 1913; meaning he served only one term during which the US economy was in a recession. He paid the price for coming to power at the wrong time. Taft was not the first, and he would not be the last president, to learn the age-long lesson that economics, like rain, sun or earthquakes etc, respects no president’s wishes. When Karl Marx, 1818-1883, pronounced that “Men make history, but not just as they please” (VBQ p 93), he must have had leaders like Buhari in mind. Nigerians were aware that Buhari, until he went to London for “God-knows-what”, was adamantly opposed to the devaluation of the naira for reasons that were badly explained because he is not an economist.

He returned just in time for the Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria, CBN, to announce a new foreign exchange policy which effectively devalued the naira. And the President had been silent ever since. The old General had finally met a force mightier than all Heads of State put together. The obvious question is why? However, before answering that question, it is pertinent to point out that all those who had supported Buhari is his obstinate opposition to devaluation had also surrendered; just as they retreated when fuel price went up to N145 per litre despite threatening fire and brimstone if it did. Buhari would be best advised to select the people whose views he takes seriously.

A Vice President of the US had made the observation that “The right to be heard does not automatically include the right to be taken seriously.” (Hubert Humphrey, 1911-1978). For too long our President listened to people who should not be taken seriously. The country has paid a heavy price for the delay and it will pay a lot more. Delay in providing economic remedies is always dangerous. Presently, we should examine the consequences of delay.

Why, then, did Buhari meekly surrender to the CBN? It is totally out of character. But, the reason is not hard to discover. Our President was shown, among other things, the rapid decline of our external reserves and the inevitability of more erosion unless he reversed himself. If not, the external reserves might reach such a critical stage that Nigerians would experience the return of “Essential Commodities” and the hardships associated with it during Buhari’s first term as Head of State – despite being a military regime.

Back in 1984-5 Buhari’s government could not decree provision of sufficient milk (even infant milk), detergents, sardines etc. Housewives had to struggle when army trucks came to supply OMO, sugar, Geisha etc, at control price, and get whipped mercilessly by soldiers. Somebody must have told the President that unless he relinquished his stubborn opposition to devaluation (which fuel price increase had partly accomplished anyway) , he would live to see ugly history repeating itself during his second tour of duty.

It is also quite possible that somebody, who had access to Buhari, must have pointed out to him the Chinese proverb saying “Nobody steps into the same river twice”. The Nigerians he and Idiagbon bullied successfully in 1984-5 are related to Nigerians today in name only. Then armed civilians could not be up to ten thousand. Today, over six million small fire arms are in private hands in West Africa – with the bulk in Nigeria. The Nigerian civilians of 2016 can no longer be pushed around by the military as they please. Buhari must deliver on the economy as well as other promises or suffer the consequences. Policies and programmes that are not grounded in good economics will imperil his government. At any rate, while it might be possible to bully some of the people some of the time, he can’t bully reality.

One reality lurking in the background and which cannot be scared is famine and food scarcity in 2016 and early 2017. With poor rainfall in the country, farmers are devastated everywhere. The harvests will be poor and we will need food imports if catastrophe is to be avoided. Neither Taft nor Buhari can make rain to fall or corn to grow, but, unlike early 20th century, in the 21st century, Presidents better know when crops will fail and plan ahead for intervention food imports before food riots erupt. If the erosion of external reserves had not been halted, there would have been no money to import the food needed later in the year and early 2017. For this reason, he might need to swallow more devaluation than he intended or would like to occur.

This warning had become necessary because his former supporters will soon start to point to high inflation as justification for their opposition to devaluation. The fact is, given our situation, inflation is inevitable. We either suffer it now or experience worse later when the external reserves might have been depleted further. It is like a driver slamming on the breaks before a vehicle out of control crashes into a wall. The damage is less.

Finally, the writer of UNDERTOW in the NATION on Saturday, June 25, 2016, remarked that “the president had responded [to journalists interviewing him] …that most of the time, the economists spoke above his head when they explained why the economy was experiencing turbulence”. Pity and the fault does not lie with Buhari alone. It is collective. In the last elections, we were confronted with a choice between “corruption incorporated”, as represented by the PDP, and a candidate weak in understanding economic principles in a world where no leading nation can afford such a leader. We are being visited by consequences of that limited choice.

wat name suits dis stadium?

#Ajoke's Pool

olatunjithomas:
abeg, has anyone seen NOAH?

Lol.... His experience is indeed needed here.

Uninterrupted rainfall has caused a football stadium to flood so much the goalposts are under water and it now looks like nothing more than a giant swimming pool.

Reports said similar freak weather conditions have not been seen for decades, and tens of thousands are now being evacuated from their homes.
Heavy storms in the city of Ezhou, in Central China’s Hubei Province, have inundated the streets with water and have caused serious disruptions to public transport.

Mingtang Stadium, the city’s landmark, is now also full of floodwater, making it look more like a bathtub than football ground.

Reports said it is the first time in 30 years, since the stadium’s completion, that it has ever been flooded, with water covering the pitch and even reaching above the goal at either end.



Incredible pictures of the open-roof stadium have since gone viral online, with netizens joking that the stadium seems to hold water quite well.

But officials are desperately dealing with the aftermath of one of the wettest summers on record, with rainfall still continuing to batter the city where 27 people have died and 16 remain unaccounted for.

The city’s Meteorological Bureau has issued ongoing storm warnings, with reports saying tens of thousands have been evacuated and relocated.

Since the beginning of July at least 14 provinces have reported floods and landslides caused by non-stop rainstorms, with some regions experiencing 300 millimetres of rainfall in just 24 hours.
