Exclusive: Tunde Ayeni Pressurises Ibadan Disco for $1m to Bribe Banks



With the noose of banks that he is indebted to closing in on him, beleaguered businessman and former chairman of the defunct Skye Bank, Dr Tunde Ayeni, is now mounting pressure on the Ibadan Electricity Distribution Company, IBEDC, to raise $1m to bribe the banks. Ayeni is the chairman of the IBEDC, which formally came into existence in November 2013 as part of the unbundling of the electricity sector.

Ayeni’s premise for requiring the money is to bribe banks that the IBEDC owes. However, those who know his modus operandi say Ayeni just wants to collect the money as he had always done for his personal use. There are reports that he has collected large sums of money in different tranches and at different times on the pretext of bribing banks to ward them off.



A serial debtor with a catalogue of failed businesses and funds mismanagement in his trail, Ayeni was accused by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, of funnelling billions of naira of depositors’ funds from Skye Bank where he served as chairman between 2011 and 2016 into buying over the moribund national telecoms carrier, NITEL, and its mobile subsidiary, MTEL, from the federal government in 2014 to birth Ntel. The federal government would discover that he was using NTEL’s assets to offset his indebtedness to the Assets Management Corporation of Nigeria, AMCON, in a classic case of robbing Peter to pay Paul.

Ayeni was also accused of mismanaging the funds of the bank leading to his ouster as chairman. In March 2019, the EFCC arraigned Ayeni before Justice Valentine Ashi of a Federal Capital Territory, FCT High Court, Apo, on a four-count charge bordering on criminal breach of trust and for conspiring at different times to fraudulently divert depositors’ funds domiciled at Skye Bank Plc to personal use. He and some top directors of the bank were later arraigned on a 10-count charge bordering on money laundering to the tune of N25,415,080,000 (Twenty-five Billion, Four Hundred and Fifteen Million, Eighty Thousand Naira) alongside two companies, Control Dredging Company Ltd and Royaltex Paramount Ventures Ltd.


Ayeni then sought a plea bargain in the money laundering case brought against him by the EFCC so that he can escape jail.

It is about 600 days that Governor Babajide Olusola Sanwo-Olu took over the reins of affairs as Governor of Lagos State. Between then and now, the governor has been confronted by several debilitating storms like the corona virus pandemic and the ENDSARS protests yet, he has not derailed from his developmental agenda christened T.H.E.M.E.S (Traffic Management and Transportation; Health and Environment; Education and Technology; Making Lagos a 21st Century State; Security and Governance). In this article, we examine how he has fared in each area of T.H.E.M.E.S.

By Femi Titus

TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT AND TRANSPORTATION
To aggressively address the challenge of bad roads and ease traffic congestions across the state, the first thing Governor Sanwo-Olu did on assumption of office was to introduce the ‘Zero Tolerance for Potholes Initiative’ by directing the Public Works Corporation to commence the patching and rehabilitation of the roads and the clearing and cleaning of all secondary and tertiary drainage systems to ensure the free flow of rainwater during the rainy season across the state. He also directed the Lagos State Traffic Management Authority (LASTMA) to operate a minimum of two shifts by managing traffic until 11:00 pm daily.
The ubiquitous okada motorcycles and tricycles were also banned across 15 local councils as a stop-gap solution to the endless traffic jams. To ameliorate the attendant inconvenience of the ban, the state government rolled out 65 high-capacity buses in addition to the existing buses in the fleet of the Lagos Bus Services Limited. 550 medium-capacity vehicles are expected anytime soon.
To further strengthen the drive for a multi-modal transport system, Governor Sanwo-Olu launched the Uber Boat water transportation service, a partnership between the global ride-hailing company and the Lagos State Waterways Authority, LASWA, which is exploring the state’s abundant waterways and, thereby, reducing the pressure on roads.
Similarly, the Lagos Ferry Services (LAGFERRY) launched its commercial operations in February. In its fleet are 14 boats with a capacity of between 30 and 60 passengers. Apart from the Badore Ferry Terminal in Ajah, other modern jetties are being built in Ijegun, Badagry, Lekki, and Ajegunle.
Significantly, to improve traffic management and transportation, the Blue Line Mass Transit Rail project, which started in 2009, has been revived with the completion of the sea-crossing track. The five-kilometre elevated sea-crossing track of the project in Marina was completed last December. Other rail lines on the drawing board are the 68km – Green Line from Marina through Victoria Island, Lekki Phases 1 and 2, Ajah, Ogombo, Lekki Airport to Lekki Free Trade Zone; the 60km – Purple Line from the Redemption Camp through Ogba, Iyana Ipaja and Igando ending at Ojo; and the 34km Yellow Line from Otta through Isheri Osun, Ejigbo Mafoluku, Isolo to National Theatre. There is also the 48km Orange Line from Ikeja crossing through Mile 12, Ikorodu, Alapadi, Eligana, Isiwu, Imota and ending at Agbowa.
Also, the Oshodi – Abule-Egba section of the Lagos–Abeokuta expressway has been reconstructed and commissioned last September. The 13.68 kilometre-long BRT corridor has reduced commute time on the route by as much as 75 per cent.

HEALTH AND ENVIRONMENT
In a bid to create more awareness and sensitisation on the Lagos State Health Scheme (LSHS), the Lagos State Health Management Agency (LASHMA) has launched ‘Ilera Eko’ campaign to achieve universal health coverage for all Lagosians. This is intended to achieve universal health coverage for Lagos residents.
There is a renaissance in the state’s public health sector. A 149-bed Maternal and Childcare Centre, MCC, in Alimosho General Hospital was commissioned recently. The specialist centre is equipped with ultra-modern equipment that aids prompt delivery of maternal and child care services.
A four-floor 110-bed Maternal and Child Centre (MCC) was also recently commissioned in Eti-Osa. Specially designed to provide integrated healthcare for mothers and children, the facility has four operational surgical theatres, defibrillators, ventilators, and oxygen therapy and phototherapy units. The Eti-Osa MCC is the eighth facility completed by the state government to provide specialized mother and childcare services while two other similar facilities located in Epe and Badagry are nearing completion.
The Healthy Bee Initiative of the Lagos government, a free healthcare programme aimed at combating organ impairment and life-threatening ailments in children saw over 25,000 residents benefitting from free treatment and surgery recently.
Lagos has also been at the forefront of the fight against the coronavirus pandemic in Nigeria with a functional incident command centre and, apart from the existing isolation centre, recently opened another in Victoria Island. The new centre is a purpose-built medical facility equipped with ICU capacities in response to the resurgence of the coronavirus in Nigeria with Lagos still the hub of the infection.
The Lagos State Waste Management Authority, LAWMA, acquired 10 boats to boost its marine waste operations. The agency also launched the Lagos Blue Box initiative, a single stream recyclable collection program that encourages the separation of recyclable materials from the general waste at the point of generation and which aims to, among other objectives, encourage zero waste generation in the state and promote a healthier and cleaner environment; reduce carbon footprints and increase economic security by tapping the domestic source of the material.

EDUCATION & TECHNOLOGY
To promote a smart city with technology, the Sanwo-Olu administration organised the Art of Technology Lagos where the governor announced a N250m grant for tech start-ups to encourage young people with fantastic ideas.
The administration gave N350million bailout for personnel cost and increased the subvention of the Adeniran Ogunsanya College of Education from N200million to N250mllion.
As part of the reforms for the education sector, the Eko Excel, an acronym for ‘Excellence in Child Education and Learning’, was launched in January 2020. It is already empowering teachers to deliver at the same level as their counterparts around the world; and providing strong continuous support that will encourage improvement in teachers and pupils. An estimated 14,000 primary school teachers are expected to benefit from the initiative while over 500,000 pupils would be positively impacted. Microsoft recently partnered with the state government to train 18, 000 teachers on its Microsoft Office suite.
In continuation of the use of skill acquisition as a tool of empowerment, 4, 885 youths graduated from 17 skill acquisition centres located in the five divisions of the state.
More than three decades after it was established, the Lagos State University, LASU, is set to become a residential tertiary institution as the state government, under the Public-Private Partnership, PPP, has signed a Build, Operate and Transfer, BOT, agreement with six property developers to construct 8,272 units of hostel in the school’s premises to be ready in the Year 2021.

EMPOWERMENT/SOCIAL WELFARE
To help legal residents whose businesses were affected by the carnage trailing the END SARS protest to resuscitate their businesses, the governor launched the N5bn MSME Recovery Fund under the Lagos State Entrepreneurship Trust Fund (LSETF).
In fulfilment of his pledge to end poverty through the implementation of socio-economic empowerment programs, Governor Sanwo-Olu recently empowered a total of 1,050 vulnerable and indigent residents in the state. Beneficiaries received, in addition to financial support, business support tools and equipment such as grinding machines, hairdressing tools, sewing machines and tyre repair kits among other materials. The governor promised that this initiative would be done quarterly.
Last November, the state government paid about N1.3 billion into the Retirement Savings Account (RSA) of 246 retirees in the state’s public service for October. The beneficiaries included employees from the mainstream service, Local Government Service, State Universal Basic Education Board (SUBEB), the Teaching Service Commission (TESCOM), and other parastatals of the state government.

INFRASTRUCTURE
The state government has resuscitated the Adiyan Waterworks, Phase Two with contractors mobilised to site. The water treatment plant, with a production capacity of 70 million gallons per day, was started in 2013. About N600million compensation was paid to owners whose property had to give way for the reconstruction works. After resuscitation, it will provide drinking water for more than five million Lagos residents and will help to address sanitation challenges and fight water-borne diseases.
In Ojokoro Local Council Development Area, 31 roads, which adds up to a total of 20.216 kilometres, have been completed and commissioned by Governor Sanwo-Olu.
The hitherto abandoned Pen Cinema flyover project is expected to be completed and commissioned in the first quarter of 2021.
A newly constructed section of the Lagos – Badagry expressway has been declared open. The 4-kilometre section stretches from Agboju and cuts across strategic locations like Maza-Maza and Alakija to Trade Fair.
The state government entered into a Public Infrastructure Improvement Partnership (PIIP) agreement that involves banks handling the rehabilitation of roads as a Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR). For instance, Access Bank is partnering with the state government in the infrastructural upgrading of the Oniru network of roads under the PIIP arrangement.
Under Governor Sanwo-Olu, the China Development Bank has injected a $629million financing facility to accelerate the completion of the Lekki Deep Seaport project, which started in 2011. When completed in 2022, the deep seaport would have two container berths of 680-metre long and 16.5-metre water depth. It will also have the capacity to be berthed by fifth-generation container ships, with a capacity of 18,000 TEU ship. Governor Sanwo-Olu affirmed that the project will transform the Lekki corridor into a new economic hub and offer a new impetus for socio-economic growth in the state.

HOUSING
In January 2021, Governor Sanwo-Olu commissioned 264-units of flats ranging from one to four bedrooms for upper and middle-income earners in two different estates in the Ikate Elegushi and Lekki area of the state.
The 492-flat housing project in Igando area of Lagos was completed, commissioned and handed over to its new occupants in 2019. The project, which originally started in 2012 under the Home Ownership Scheme of the administration of ex-Governor Babatunde Fashola, but was abandoned by the immediate past administration, is a testimony of Sanwo-Olu’s campaign pledge to complete and deliver all critical projects inherited from the last administration. The estate is fittingly named after the first civilian governor of Lagos State, Alhaji Lateef Jakande, who died February 11th, 2021. Similarly, the recently commissioned 132-unit Lagos HOMS project at Iponri in Surulere area was named after former Governor Babatunde Raji Fashola, SAN.
There are also an additional 360 units in Igbogbo, 744 in Sangotedo, 660 in Agbowa and 680 in Egan Igando are slated for commissioning soon.

AGRICULTURE
Under the Agro-Processing Productivity Enhancement and Livelihood Support (APPEALS) Women and Youth Empowerment Scheme (WYEP), 350 have graduated being the batch 1. Out of these beneficiaries, 165 majored in the poultry value chain, 35 in the rice value chain and 150 in the aquaculture value chain. The thrust of the project is to increase farmers’ productivity, production, and improve the processing and marketing of the target value chains, which would foster job creation along identified value chains.
The Imota Rice Mill in Lagos is nearing completion. The 38 metric tonnes per hour mill will be one of the biggest on the continent when completed. It is expected to throw up between 1000 and 1,500 jobs and positively impact the rice value chain that will produce 2.4 million bags of 50kg rice yearly.
The governor also unveiled a five-year master plan that would guide the state’s intervention and investment in agriculture for a long-term return with the objective to reduce food importation and over dependence on finished products from outside the country.
The state government is also in the process of establishing the Lagos Aquaculture Centre of Excellence (LACE) to drive fish production in the state. The centre will have a hatchery with a capacity to produce 50 million fish - enough to supply 5,000 smallholder farms. It will also include a 24,000 tonnes feed mill and a 20,000 tonne capacity fish processing centre. He said that the annual demand for fish in the state was 374,000 tonnes, considerably below the state’s current 155,000 tonnes of production.

SECURITY
Effective security is an essential component of the Sanwo-Olu developmental agenda for Lagos State. As such, he has been proactive and pragmatic in the handling of the state’s security providing the required support for the police for effective discharge of their duties. He recently commissioned the new Area L Police Command in Ilashe, Ojo; the Area 'J' Police Command administrative building at Elemoro town in Ibeju-Lekki and donated 125 patrol vehicles and 35 patrol motorcycles for the use of security operatives in the state.

The family of Late Gabriel Meadows has shown gratitude to Lagos government under His Excellence Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu for reclaiming their plots of land for them from land grabbers.

Speaking on behalf of the family at a press briefing on Monday , Mr Tosin Meadows the grandchild of Late Gabriel Meadows said with what the state government has done, they've been able to restore hope to the masses that no land grabber can hijacked their property from them, it also shows that there is no room for land grabbers in Lagos again, he urged Mr Sanwo-Olu and his team on land matters to keep the good work.

During the briefing Engr. Ariori who happened to be the developer of Meadows family also extend appreciation to Lagos State Attorney-General and Commissioner for Justice, Mr. Moyosore Onigbanjo (SAN) who investigated the case and was able to established the facts that the portion of Lands belongs to Meadows family.

Establishing the facts, Justice Moyosore referred to Judgements obtained from various courts (High Court – Suit No. LD/513/80. Court of Appeal – Appeal No. CA/1/92 and the Supreme Court – SC/146/1995) and other documents showing Meadows title to the land to substantiate their position.

Engr, Ariori warns violators not to come close to the land after the state final judgment.

Recall that a Committee of Inquiry set up by the Lagos State Attorney-General and Commissioner for Justice, Mr. Moyosore Onigbanjo (SAN) to look into the complaint of a lawyer, M.O. Ubani (Esq.), published on social media on the 31st December 2020, in respect of land situate at 1, Folorunsho Kuku Street, Opebi, Ikeja, Lagos, has submitted its final report.

In order to investigate all claims, the Committee invited all the parties involved to its sitting which commenced on 4th January until 1st of February, 2021, to ascertain the identity of the land upon which enforcement was carried out and determine the present legal status of ownership as well as the level of involvement of the State Government Agencies.

It was established that the Lagos State Special Task Force on Land Grabbers (LSSTF) took its action based on the petition received from Messrs. Millan Solicitors, on behalf of the Meadows family, to eject the occupants of the land in contention, which harbours shanties, mechanics and miscreants.

The petitioners tendered copies of judgements obtained from various courts (High Court – Suit No. LD/513/80. Court of Appeal – Appeal No. CA/1/92 and the Supreme Court – SC/146/1995) and other documents showing their title to the land to substantiate their position.

Consequently, the Coordinator of the Lagos Task Force confirmed the authenticity of all documents presented by the petitioner and obtained approval to embark on the enforcement, in conjunction with other government agencies whose representatives were part of the Committee set up to establish facts of the matter - Ministry of Justice, Ministry of Physical Planning and Urban Development, Ministry of Transportation and Office of the Surveyor-General, Lagos State.

Before finally embarking on the enforcement, steps were taken in compliance with the relevant laws guiding removal of vehicles of the mechanics illegally operating on the land; removal of the shanties and ejection of the hoodlums from the site.

The Committee members conducted a physical inspection of the land on 4th January 2020 and established that despite the demolition carried out by the Special Operations Unit, the site was still occupied by hoodlums who threatened violence and insisted that they should be left to reside at the location.

The Meadows Family (the Petitioner) was also invited to the Committee and it was established that after the execution of the judgement of the High Court of Lagos State, some mechanics and miscreants dislodged them from the land and all efforts to remove the trespassers had proved abortive until the petition to the Lagos State Special Task Force.

The Committee also ascertained that the Ex Parte Order submitted by Mr. Ubani was in the name of Circle Nigeria Limited but the C of O attached thereto in the name of Kayode Owoseye Akingbade – two different entities.

Ubani did not also provide any document to justify that the land belongs to Circle Nigeria Limited.

The findings of the Committee also indicated that:

All the Survey Plans from both the Meadows family and that of Mr. Ubani’s Client revealed that the subject land falls within the Meadows’ family land; and that
The land on which enforcement was carried out by the LSSTF falls within the parcel of land for which Meadows family obtained judgement in their favour in Suit No. LG/513/80.

The social media publication made by Mr. Ubani was to get public sympathy and blackmail the Government and its Agencies from carrying out their legal functions. The claim of Mr. Ubani cannot be substantiated with cogent facts.

Lagosians are assured that no illegal takeover of property will be allowed by the government, which will always be committed to the rule of law. The Special Task Force on Land Grabbers Law will be strengthened to grant the body power to remove trespassers from any land and put the rightful owner in possession of the property.

The leader of INRI Evangelical spiritual church, Primate Elijah Ayodele has once again confirmed his call as the most accurate man of God as his prophecy on Imo North has been fulfilled.

The popular prophet has been hammering his prophecy on Imo north senatorial election since October 2020, two months before the election held, and his word has been that the candidate of the PDP, Chief Emmanuel Okewulonu will be declared as winner of the election.

The election held on December 5, 2020, and there was uncertainties because the INEC declared the APC as the winner of the election but returned no candidate because the court sacked two candidates of the APC hours before the election.

Even after that, Primate Ayodele still reinstated his prophecy that at the end of the day, the candidate of the PDP will still be victorious.

Furthermore, yesterday, the two APC candidates took their case to the Supreme court, and one of them, Frank Ibezim was declared as the authentic candidate of the APC, Meanwhile, He was sacked as the candidate of the election due to certificate forgery.

After this, Primate Ayodele told Frank Ibezim not to rejoice yet because the victory still lies with the candidate of the PDP, Emmanuel Okewulonu.

24hours after he made this statement to Frank Ibezim, news broke out that Ibezim had lost at the appeal court where he aimed to squash the federal high court judgment that sacked him for forgery case.

With this, technically, the word of Primate Ayodele is coming to pass as the APC has become a party with no eligible candidate in the election, and INEC will be left with no choice than to declare the next party with the highest vote;PDP as winner.

‘Don’t Rejoice Yet’ – Primate Ayodele Tells APC, Frank Ibezim After Supreme Court Judgment

The leader of INRI Evangelical spiritual church, Primate Elijah Ayodele has reacted to the Supreme Court judgment of the Imo north senatorial election that held on December 5, 2020.

There has been trouble over the election winner, as INEC declared APC winner of the election but didn’t return any candidate because the federal high court, and Appeal court judgement sacked the two candidates of the APC few hours before the election.

However, the Supreme Court has declared Frank Ibezim as the rightful candidate of the APC in the election, and ordered that he should be given the certificate of return.

Meanwhile, Primate Elijah Ayodele had prophesied that the candidate of the PDP, Chief Emmanuel Okewulonu will be the winner of the election at the end of the day. He made this known before the election, and still after the election.

Following this judgment, Primate Ayodele reinstated his prophecy on the election, and revealed that the candidate of the PDP will still be given victory at the end of the day.

He urged Frank Ibezim not to rejoice yet because he will still be knocked out at the end of the day, while reassuring the candidate of the PDP, Chief Emmanuel Okewulonu not to lose hope because God’s mandate is his mandate.

Furthermore, information has it that the candidate of the PDP has proceeded to the Tribunal to claim his victory.

The 20th Inspector General of Police, IGP. Mohammed Adamu, NPM, mni, tenure in office as the Inspector General of Police will be coming to an end on 1st February, 2021, after a herculean job of clearing part of the rot left being by his immediate predecessor, IGP. Ibrahim Kpotun Idris. Without trying to run down the tenure of IGP. Idris, it is common knowledge within and outside the Nigeria Police Force that the organisation having been repositioned for further reforms and better service delivery by IGP. Solomon Arase, IGP. Idris came on board and took the Nigeria Police Force, dipped it in the dirtiest mud one could think of and set the organisation 15years backward. IGP. Idris performance still resonates till date, albeit in his domestic life.
Kudos and commendation must go to the current outgoing IGP., IGP Adamu who has reformatted the Nigeria Police Force with some unprecedented foundations needed for a better repositioning and total reforms of the Nigeria Police Force. Chiefly among his legacies is the new Police Actt 2020, the Nigeria Police Trust Fund Bill, Implementation of Community Policing agenda, etc. Admittedly, IGP. Adamu's, wealth of experience nationally and internationally has rubbed off on policing Nigeria. Nigerians can only wish him happy retirement and success in his national and international aspirations. IGP. Adamu is a hero of our time and his heroic legacies must be passed on to a predecessor who is MOST qualified.
Benjamin Disraeli who twice served as Prime Minister of the United Kingdom and the first Earl of Beaconsfield, KG, PC, FRS (21 Dec., 1804 - 19 April, 1881) said "The legacy of Heroes is the Memory of a great name and the inheritance of a great example." President Muhammed Buhari is by this appealed to, to ensure that the MOST QUALIFIED Assistant Inspector General of Police is appointed the next number one Cop in Nigeria to build on and improve upon what IGP Adamu did. It will be a disservice to the Nation especially with her current security situation across the Nation to appoint someone who is not the BEST AMONG EQUALS.
The appointment of the next IGP should be deviod of cultural, ethnic or religious biasness. We should all be reminded that the Nigeria Police Force is the main and major organisation saddled with the provision of internal security within the country. If the choice is right, every citizen, even the military will not be overstretched as being witnessed now.

President Muhammed Buhari is hereby called upon to take a cue from the United Kingdom Government who in 2010 clamoured for a replacement or reform of the existing police authorities by introducing the Police Reform and Social Responsibility Bill into Parliament in December 2010. Just as President Muhammed Buhari accented to the new Police Act 2020, the United Kingdom Bill received Royal Assent on 15 September 2011 becoming the Police Reform and Social Responsibility Act 2011. By November 22, 2012, immediately after the expiration of the tenure of Police and Crime Commissioner, just as we have in IGP. Mohammed Adamu's tenure, the then existing Police authority framework was replaced with a new structure spelt out in the new Police Reform and Social Responsibility Act 2011 which saw to the currently running every four years thereafter.
APPOINT THE NEW IGP IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE POLICE ACT, 2020
President Muhammadu Buhari is hereby urged to appoint the new Inspector General of Police in accordance with the Police Act 2020, especially with consideration for merit; in terms of academic exposure both nationally and internationally, impeccable professional pedigrees, as well as other enviable qualities that can reposition the Nigeria Police in line with the dreams of Mr. president and all Nigerians.
Major contenders for the enviable position of Inspector General of Police are AIG Dan-Mallam Mohammed, AIG. Dasuki Danbappa Galadanchi, AIG. Usman Alkali, AIG. Sanusi Lemu. AIG. Hafiz Mohammed Inuwa and AIG. Moses Jitoboh.
Meanwhile, three of these contenders; AIG. Usman Alkali, AIG. Dan-Mallam Mohammed and AIG. Sanusi Lemu have about two more years to their retirement and this runs contrary to the provision of the new Police Act 2020. AIG. Hafiz Inuwa and AIG. Dasuki Galadanchi have about four years to go while AIG. Moses Jitoboh have eight years to retirement.
From the foregoing, Mr. President is hereby presented with three candidates who first meet up with approved tenure for IGP. in line with the requirement of Police Act 2020. However, other criteria needed for the highly exalted position will equally apply. Below are the brief résumé of major contenders:
DIG DAN-MALLAM MOHAMMED, fdc.,
He is currently the DIG in charge of Training. He was born on 18th December,1963 and hails from Yar'adua in Local Government Area of Katsina State. He is a graduate of Hausa /Islamic Studies from Bayero University, Kano. He was enlisted into the Nigeria Police as a Cadet Assistant Superintendent of Police on 3rd March, 1990. He had served as former Aide-De-Camp (ADC Police) to then President of Nigeria and C-in-C to President Olusegun Obasanjo. He equally holds a Bachelor Degree in Political Science from University of Abuja. He was also a Board member of the Economic and Financial Crime Commission (EFCC). He was Commisioner of Police in Charge of Enugu and Edo Commands. He is a fellow of the prestigious National Defence College, Course 24. He has attended many courses, conferences and seminars within and outside the country. A minus for him, is that he has less than two years to serve in the Nigeria Police Force. This negates the new Police Act as amended that an IGP must serve for a period of not less than four years.
DIG USMAN ALKALI BABA, fdc.,
Usman Alkali was born on 1st March,1963 in Geidam, Yobe State. Until his promotion as DIG Force CID, he was Force Secretary at the Force Headquarters, Abuja.

He had served in various capacities in the police as AIG in charge of Zone 5 Benin comprising of Edo, Delta and Bayelsa State Commands; AIG in charge of Zones 4 and 7, Commissioner of Police in charge of FCT and Delta Commands amongst others. He was acting DIG in charge of Finance and Administration, as well as the Force Secretary. He too has been caught in the web of retiring in two years time thus negating the new Police Act 2020.
AIG. DASUKI GALADANCHI mni
Recently promoted to the rank of AIG in less than 72 hours to the exit and expiration of the tenure of the outgoing IGP. Adamu, AIG Dasuki was born on January 10, 1966.

CHOICE BETWEEN MERITOCRACY AND NEPOTISM
The onerous task of choosing the 21st Inspector General of Police rests solely on the Commander in Chief and the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. Why the task is onerous than ever before is the current security situation and ethnic division and suspicion within the country. The President MUST BE guided by meritocracy. He must present himself like the symbol of Judiciary called "Lady Justice" symbolism of fair, equal administration of the law, without corruption, favour, greed or prejudice.
Objectively and in great service to our great Nation, the three major contenders mentioned above in the persons of AIGs Hafiz Inuwa, Dasuki Galadanchi and Moses Jitoboh; should be viewed based on merits and résumé devoid of their tribal, ethnic and religious affiliations. The good work of IGP. Muhammad Adamu needs continuation from an officer of higher calling and wider exposure so as to improve on the legacies left behind.
Without biasness, the next IGP should have a higher academic qualifications, higher professional experience and greater experience to consolidate on the ongoing reforms.
Just like a popular legal maxim says "Res ipsa loquitor", the FACTS ARE SO OBVIOUS, A PARTY NEEDS NOT EXPLAIN ANYMORE. Facts about who becomes the next IGP speak loudly for itself. May God help the President to do the needful and QUALIFIED

God bless the Nigeria Police Force!
God bless the President!!
God bless Nigeria!!!

‘Pastors Are Not To Pay Your Bills’ – Prophet Joshua Iginla Tells Christians

TRIXX NG Reports that a popular prophet, Joshua Iginla has told Christians not to solely depend on men of God for succor.

This publication reports that the Prophet stated that except the pastors have a personal giving heart to help the poor or under divine mandate, they are not responsible for payment of their members’ bills.

‘Prophets and Pastors are not to pay your bills or shoulder your responsibilities, except they have a personal giving heart to help the poor or they are under divine mandate which they must obey.

(According to Jeremiah 3:15) Prophets and Pastors are to feed you with knowledge and understanding.
In the name of Jesus above every other name, every heavy burden weighing you down is lifted off you today’

Popular Cross-dresser, James Brown Calls Out TB Joshua For Not Healing Him Of HIV

Popular cross-dresser and controversial comedian, James Brown has called out popular prophet, TB Joshua, and some other men of God for not healing him of his disease.

Recall that He is said to have contracted HIV and this was revealed by Bobrisky, his fellow cross-dresser after they dragged each other online.

After this revelation was made, some of James Brown fans adviced him to go to some churches to seek for healing, and one of the churches mentioned was Synagogue church of all nations.

Shunning them, James Brown revealed that He has been to several churches which includes SCOAN, owned by TB Joshua and he was even given an anointed water yet the disease is yet to leave him.

Apart from Prophet TB Joshua, He mentioned Chris Okafor, the general overseer of Liberation city, Prophet Jeremiah Omofufeyin, the general overseer of Christ Mercyland in Delta as men of God he has visited without healing him

The general overseer of the Synagogue church of all nations, Prophet TB Joshua is not having the best of time after his New year message went viral.

The prophet had earlier said He was on the mountain to bring the Prophecies that God has for the people ahead of year 2021.

Unfortunately, people were disappointed after his New year message was revealed today. The major word of prophecy in his statement was about Covid-19, a Novel virus that has crippled the world.

It would be recalled that Prophet TB Joshua had said that the virus will be over in March 2020 which didn't happen.

This has become a basis for the backlash the man of God is currently experiencing after stating that the Virus has three stages and will still be much around, after his prophecy on it fading in March 27 failed.
