Over 3,400 members of the Peoples Democratic Party in Ondo State, who are loyalists of the former candidate of the PDP in the October 20, 2012 governorship election in the state, Chief Olusola Oke, have defected to the All Progressives Congress.

Oke had earlier defected to the APC.

At the event to mark the defection held in Igbokoda, the headquarters of Ilaje Local Government Area of the state on Saturday, the defectors said they took the decision to leave the PDP because of the mismanagement that the party had perpetrated in the country in the past 16 years of its reign.

Addressing the defectors, Oke, who defected to the APC shortly after the last Presidential election, said the time had come for all Ilaje sons and daughters to dump the PDP, which he said, had brought untold hardship to the people in the country.

He added, “I am ashamed of being a member of a party that has plunged the country into calamity. With the revelation coming out now, I have to apology to my teeming supporters and Nigerians that my former party brought Nigeria to her knees.”

Oke, a former National Legal Adviser of the PDP, declared that the change that had taken root at the federal level, would soon berth in the state in the 2016 governorship election and the local government poll later in the year.

He said, “The change that had taken over Nigeria will come to Ondo State. This is the time for change in Ondo State. It is not good for this state to be in opposition to the Federal Government and hence this state must be in tandem with the government at the centre. We want to take over the government both at the state and local government levels.”

A former leader of the PDP in the riverside areas of Ilaje, Mr. Glory Okuntade, while speaking on behalf of other defectors, said they were leaving PDP because they had nothing to show their teeming supporters in the area in terms of development that their membership of PDP had brought to them.

Ibori- the enough is enough crusade
Kai, Nigerians, we are a special breed. They have
just announced a major crusade tagged ‘enough
is enough’to pray for the immediate release of
Chief Ibori from prison. I support this crusade
wholeheartedly simply because I once met him
at a wedding and shook him. He was a very
charismatic figure who walked in the regal
posture of an all conquering Emperor, so he does
not deserve to be in jail at all. He deserves to be
the new MD of NNPC. What is it sef? Why is he
still in prison, is his offense the biggest, after all
those who are today shouting change are no
better.
He should be released so he can come and
contribute his own quota to national
development. If Ibori was out now, we would not
be reporting 38% pass rate in WAEC, he would
have intervened in the fight between Amadu
Pinick and Stephen Keshi. I beg all Nigerians to
join this crusade and pray fervently for the
immediate release of chief Ibori . On second
thoughts , is it not better he stays there until
Buhari goes, because I cannot pray and fast two
times. We don’t want for him to be released only
for Buhari to throw him back into a local jail.
Abeg, let’s wait till Buhari finish his term before
we commence this crusade o. Na beg.
Boko Haram in Lagos?
One Military Chief has just told us of how they
arrested Boko Haram people in Lagos. One at
the Airport and the other in Apapa. I thank God
not in Shomolu. You see, it’s not that I am afraid
of them but as a man with too many kurukere
moves, how will I explain to my wife that I was
blown up at the female hostel in Unilag, when I
was supposed to be at work, working late. That
has always been my fear for all these suicide
bombers who do not give people enough time to
prepare before they are blown up . So it is just
well that the military have shown enough
capacity to stop them in Lagos, please they
should continue to do this good job and if there
is any way I can be of help they should not
hesitate to ask me. They can send me a mail
through Fasholas website. Laugh want kill me,
N78m website wey no fit catch one terrorist.

I miss this shows mehn

A former Chairman of Senate Committee on Establishment and Public Service Matters, Senator Aloysius Etok, has called on President Muhammadu Buhari to introduce what he termed ‘self amnesty programme’ for looters of the nation’s treasury.
Etok, who represented Akwa Ibom North-West Senatorial District at the National Assembly from 2007 to 2015, said the idea is to enable those who looted the country’s funds from the different sectors to willingly return what is left of their loot.
The senator commended the efforts of President Buhari in tackling corruption.
He said as a senator he started the anti-graft war with pension fund managers that had looted the money meant for pensioners.
Explaining his idea of the self amnesty programme in Calabar, Etok said those who looted the nation’s treasury as being gradually revealed by the President Buhari-led administration should be allowed to bring back to government coffers what they have left.
He said
“Let us have self amnesty programme for those who looted the economy. If for instance you have stolen N6 and you have eaten N2, you should be allowed to return the N4 that is left. That should be the starting point.”

3. Dr who- Dr who is one of my 90's most watch TV program. I make sure I stayed glue to our TV once it's 430pm mostly on Wednesday.

4. Baba suwe. Most of my folks from the west would remember a program called " Erin ke ke lagbole baba suwe" this is the most funniest NTA series in the 90s also. Mostly displayed at 7pm on dot.

1. Tele match : this is a famous TV program in the 90's. Believe me, it's 100% fun filled with lots of activities

Aice hoo Aice - peeeeeeen(don't know if I get it right self)

2. Tales by moon light: this is another lovely 90s NTA series.

Once it's 630 pm, we would stay close to my dad open and close black and white box TV to enjoy the show. 100%educative

Seems someone wants to remain relevant and had to use every available channel... He he he

The truth is Politicians are never satisfied.... They only smell money. Wether beg or not they wil defect soon

The truth is there is no saint anywhere.... but someone serving as a scape goat wires a strong message to others

I hate sentimental comments..... This move by these Chiefs is just so good and of cuz a motivation for our gallant men.



People will come on here with cheap ballyhoo "this can only happen in Nigeria, '' no where in the world a chief of army staff will do press up to scare terrorist.... All this motivation thing start somewhere. This is Nigeria, there is no other country like ours, Nigeria is great, Nigeria Is bless, all this can only happen if we start to do the right thing as an individuals and shun sentiments.


God bless we own country

All I can see here are lies.... Why was question number 10 on the election form skipped?

Mine is ccc Hymn 551

Ki la owi, ki la o so,
Ki la owi ki la o so
Ijo mimo, ki la o so
Igbati baba, ba pe wa o
Pe omo si wo, ko ma bo
WA siro ise owo re

Kila owi arakurin, Kila owi arabirin,
Ijo mimo ki la o so
Igbati baba ba pe wa o
Pe omo si wo ko ma bo
WA siro ise owo re. Amin

English :WHAT shall we say? What shall we tell? (2ce) Celestial Church, what shall we tell? When our Father shall calf on us
That we stop work and come to Him to account for all our works
What shall we say, oh my brothers? What shall we say, oh my sisters? Celestial Church, what shall we tell? When our Father shall call on us
That we stop work and come to Him to account for all our works. Amen.


Another one Hymn 331


E yin oluwa enyin mimo

Fun 'jo at'orun wa mimo
Ayo taiye kole fun ni
Oluwa lo fi le le
Lati ko rugbin lo s'orun
S'orun sodo baba mimo
Oluwa yio yan ojise re
Sinu 'jo mimo yi. Amin

English OH praise the Lord all ye his Saints because of this Celestial Church
The joy the world cannot give us our Lord established it to gather seedlings
Heavenward, heavenward to Father divine, the Lord His messengers will he choose within this holy fold. Amen


God bless ijo mimo(ccc) ... Ijo mimo agbewa

That would be just fine......

See hin eyes..mother fucker

The Nigeria police should stand on their toes on this case and let justice prevail. Era of impunity is the over, this will also serve as an example to subordinate and the citizens at large.


NPF, pls dignify your stance on this..... We are watching you

God bless u richly.

Abugab:
Call it multi-roles or multi-tasks, the need to synergize and build alliances in the war against corruption and corrupt Nigerians is the focus now.
So long they work within the limits of the constitution, there is no problem.
Barcanista! You go kill yourself ooooooo

Not surprised......when the going was smooth, we no hear anything. See the huge amount loaned to a single customer, meanwhile this amount can turn many Nigerians business around big time. Ptcheeeew

A way to go..... Don't forget to extend this to lagos Island, techno office in ikeja and the rest too. Not just the one u can fetch millions from alone

Everyone is shooting their gun across the tribe's border instead of us to unite and lead this our dear country to her destination or even set it on the path.

Thats a sign Boko Haram are afraid...... Nigeria army, flush them to the brim

I wish the Nigeria police could be this proactive just like the Dss are.


PDP with their endless wahala, guess they are still suffering from the March election results shock.

ellabooz:
Why all this propaganda?
No go fight your malam for this cheap lies oh.

As at today, dollars sell at 230 naira per dollar.

Lies everywhere

Many people have this foolish attitude..... They won't read befor dropping comments.
