kungbowa Aiwerie, Asaba
Delta Governor Dr Ifeanyi Okowa, and wife, Edith have tested positive for COVID-19.

The development was sequel to tests conducted on them after a few days of self-isolation, which started on Friday after one of their daughters tested positive for the virus.

The first family in the state, according to a statement by the Chief Press Secretary to the Governor, Mr Olisa Ifeajika, are stable and have commenced necessary treatment and further isolation.

PoliticsDasuki Introduced Buhari To Tinubu During 2011 Merger… IBB Supported Financially by sarrki(op): 6:28pm On Jun 29, 2020
Dasuki Introduced Buhari to Tinubu During 2011 Merger, Midwifed Negotiations- Kurfi, ex-CPC Chieftain …. IBB Assisted Buhari with money for elections Further, albeit exclusive details as to how the Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN), All Nigerian Peoples Party (ANPP) and Congress for Progressives Change (CPC), who were the legacy parties, teamed up to form a formidable political party since 2011 as emerged. Dr. Ahmed Kurfi, a former chieftain of the defunct CPC, said it was Col. Sambo Dasuki, immediate-past National Security Adviser (NSA), who introduced General Muhammadu Buhari (Rtd) to the then Leader of CPC to Asiwaju Ahmed Tinubu, the leader of ACN prior to 2011 presidential election.

One year later after the election, Sambo Dasuki was appointed National Security Adviser by President Goodluck Jonathan of the People Democratic Party (PDP) on June 22, 2012.

Kurfi said that together with Dasuki, Adamu Adamu, the current Minister of Education; Kabir Yusuf, the publisher of Daily Trust; and Wada Maida the former Chief Executive of the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN); they visited the All Progressives Congress (APC) National Leader in Lagos, before the 2011 general elections.

In an interview in the Sunday Sun, Kurfi said: “I was central to the negotiation of CPC and ACN which later became APC. I was the one who led the team that went to negotiate with Bola Tinubu,” he said. Kurfi, a self-professed revolutionary scholar, then added that APC, as a party, is just a coalition of various interests that came together to form a political party for the purpose of occupying political power; which means to enter political offices. His words:

“So, if you look deeply and analytically, you will find that actually it is not a political party because all sorts of various political interests have come in.” Dr. Kurfi, while speaking further, strongly maintained that the long-standing ‘grudge’ existing between Buhari and Col. Dasuki is purely over ‘their’ military matter. “But the fact of the matter is that Sambo Dasuki was the one who even introduced us to Tinubu, because they were in exile together when Abacha was after them,” he said. Dr. Kurfi, a former Director of Research and Strategy in the defunct CPC, revealed that Dasuki is the “one who went between Buhari and Babangida because Babangida also assisted Buhari with money for his elections.” He added: “And you know the whole campaign we did for Buhari in ANPP, it was with Sambo. It was Sambo who initiated this meeting.

It was Sambo who was in between. He was the one who made the arrangements and when we fly to Lagos it was Sambo who will make the necessary arrangements. But you know the military; it’s just like what Adamu Ciroma said in one of his many interviews. He said they say Buhari is unforgiving and said why should he not forgive? He overthrew a democratically elected government and put Shagari in detention; so if you are removed by the same people you used to overthrow Shagari why should you complain?” Kurfi, then added: “I can tell you that all the campaigns we did around the country Sambo was with us. And you know Sambo has a lot of networks.

If you want a detribalized Nigerian that is Sambo. You will see him so comfortable with every Nigerian regardless of your tribe, religion or whatever.” It would be recalled that the ex-NSA in ‘An Encounter with the Spymaster’, a book written by a Public Relations (PR) professional, Mr. Yushau Shuaib, disclosed how he knelt before ex-governors of Osun and Lagos State, Bisi Akande and Bola Tinubu, to accept Buhari as the joint Presidential candidate of ACN and CPC, in 2011. The book revealed that the merger failed to win the presidential election when Buhari rejected a joint ticket with Osinbajo as he chose Pastor Tunde Bakare instead as the running-mate for the 2011.

Similarly, Alh. Mustapha Jokolo, who was the Aide de Camp (ADC) to Mr. Buhari after the coup that toppled the government of President Shehu Shagari, in an interview in 2018, said the former NSA was a financier and facilitator of the 1983 military coup which terminated Nigeria’s Second Republic and installed Buhari as Head of State. He said Mr. Dasuki, then a major in the army, played active roles through sourcing the funds for the coup that made Buhari Head of State in 1983.

PoliticsEx-oyo Gov Ajimobi Is Dead - Punch Newspaper by sarrki(op): 5:33pm On Jun 25, 2020
The immediate past Governor of Oyo State, Abiola Ajimobi, has died at age 70 after battling coronavirus-related symptoms for a month, The PUNCH has learnt.

Ajimobi, who was governor from 2011 to 2019, was named the Deputy National Chairman (South) of the ruling All Progressives Congress last month but never resumed.

The former governor was hospitalised at First Cardiologist and Cardiovascular Consultants Hospital, Lagos on June 2, 2020.

He was said to have tested negative for COVID-19 but the illness had caused his health to deteriorate.

Ajimobi’s wife, Florence, had earlier been hospitalised with her husband. She was, however, discharged.

He was said to have been confirmed positive earlier and was managing the situation at home before the illness worsened and he had to go to a hospital.

Like other VIPs, he was said to have opted for private treatment rather than a public facility after his condition worsened.

Ekiti Governor Kayode Fayemi on Tuesday took former Deputy National Secretary of the All Progressives Congress(APC) Victor Giadom to Aso Rock Villa in a failed attempt to see President Muhammadu Buhari.

The visit, The Nation learnt, was to win Buhari over to Giadom, who has been laying claim to being acting national chairman of the party.

It was also gathered Fayemi wanted Giadom to see Buhari to get endorsement for the emergency National Executive Council (NEC) he summoned.
But the duo couldn’t see Buhari despite spirited attempts.

They only met his Chief of Staff, Prof Ibrahim Gambari, who insisted Buhari had closed for work.

Fayemi, who is chairman of the Nigeria Givernors Forum, is one of the anti-Oshiomhole forces in the ruling party.

Someone told me CBN governor Emefiele was so alarmed by the hundreds of billions Sabiu "Tunde" Yusuf has in his name in personal bank accounts that he advised Sabiu to mask some of the bank accounts and to divvy up the amounts in them to save his neck in a post-Buhari dispensation.

Sabiu reportedly said the billions in his accounts are "gifts" from from people. But why didn't he get such "gifts" when he was a recharge card seller? Accepting "gifts" for favors done while occupying a privileged government position (he's Buhari's Private Secretary and de facto Chief of Staff) is against the law.

Aisha Buhari, who is herself neck-deep in unimaginable corruption, has commissioned people to take photos of Sabiu's multi-billion naira properties all over Nigeria. You may soon start seeing it on social media.

The stench bomb of fetid corruption that will explode after Buhari leaves office would be so unprecedentedly malodorous it would deaden Nigeria's collective nasal sensibility for a long time.

CultureModern Igbo To Take Note Eze Does Not Mean King In Literal Sense Of The Word by sarrki(op): 6:25am On Jun 22, 2020
EZE is not king
It Is Very Important For Modern IGBO People To Realize That The Original IGBO Culture Was Egalitarian, And The Word "EZE" Does Not Mean KING In The Literal Sense Of The Word. The Word EZE Means "Priest". The Idea Of Kings, Queens, Prince And Princesses Were Recently Adopted, During UGA AZI, The Time When The Enslavers And Colonizers Were Scrambling Africa. The Word "EZE" Most Likely Originated From The NRI-Priesthood Culture Of Igbo.. There Are Five Original IGBO Ancestors Known As AGBAJA, ISU, ORU, NRI And IDU.

This Is Why We Say ISE, After Praying. The NRI Civilization Wasn't Based On Kingship, But Rather Priesthood, That's Actually What They Were Known For In Ancient Time. The AGBAJA People Are Into Algriculture And Arts, The ISU People Were Iron Smithers, The ORU People Knows All About The Water, The NRI People Were Known For Priesthood And Arts, And IDU People Were Known For Military Science. The Reason Why IGBO People Do Not Bow Down Is Because IGBO Culture Did Not Originate From Kingships, But From Egalitarianism.

When We Say, "IGBO ENWE EZE", The Spirit Of The People Is Refering To The Fact That The Word EZE Has Been Corrupted From Its Original Meaning. NDI IGBO BU NDI MBU... NDI SO UWA SENITE. They Did Not Originate From A Specific Kingdom Created By Man, Like That Of The Yorubas (Respectfully Writing). The Name IGBO, Is A Name Of A Forest God That Traces His Root Back To A Seed God Named ADU. IGBO BU NWA ADU.

This Means That IGBO People Are Seed People -> UMU AJA ANA. Igbo People Were Also Elegant Nomads In Ancient Time. Even Uptil Today, They Are Still Elegant Nomads. Their First Home Is A Place Known As Igboland Today, But They Like To Live Everywhere In The World. The People Lived Together Through Spiritual Principles That The EZE Was The Custodian Of. We Also Had Egalitarian Governmental System Known As OSU. When The Colonizers Came, It Was Very Difficult For Them To Penetrate IGBO, Because Igbo Was Egalitarian. So They Did What They Know Best. They Decided To Attack Igbo From Its Foundation. They Did This By Changing The Egalitarian System To Rulership. This Is One Of The Things That Created The Caste System Known As OSU. And The Masses Were Subjugated Under Kingships Created By The Colonizers. Uptil Today, These Colonial Kingdoms Are Still Working Against IGBO People, Rather Than Working For Igbo People. It's Not A Coincidence That The Term OHANEZE Rounds To 74, Just Like JESUS, ENGLISH, And FRENCH.

This Is The Work Of The Jesuits And Masons. Our Culture Is Not The Culture Of IGWE-KA-ALA. Our Culture Is The Culture Of ENU KWUDO ANA KWUDO. Google Images Of Ancient IGBO Stools. They'll Tell You The Same Thing."Copied"

PoliticsNastura Sharif Arrest: Bashir Tofa Warns Buhari by sarrki(op): 3:38pm On Jun 18, 2020
Sharif’s arrest: 2011 violence will be child’s play – Bashir Tofa warns Buhari

A former presidential candidate of the National Republican Convention (NRC), Bashir Othman Tofa, has told President Muhammadu Buhari to immediately order the release of Nastura Ashir Sharif.

Tofa asked Buhari to apologise to Sharif, before fire consumes the North and the country, even more than the 2011 election violence.

Sharif, Chairman, Board of Trustees of the Coalition of Northern Groups (CNG) was arrested by the Police for organising protests against the killing of Nigerians by bandits in Katsina and other States.

In his statement on Wednesday, Tofa said the arrest and detention was wrong, undemocratic and a very bad example of intolerance.

Tofa wondered why citizens who demonstrated peacefully against killings would be incarcerated.


“Is this a notice that nobody is allowed to say anything or to express a view, even peacefully? Is this the Democracy Nigeria is showing to the world? We hope not,” he said.

He declared that so many people are angry about the state of the nation.

Tofa warned that “if this collective anger is tickled and pushed by a few who may have started some illegal action somewhere, it will easily spread.

“The 2011 violence, destruction and death that occurred when it was rumoured that Gen. Muhammad Buhari was denied his victory will be a child’s play this time around.

“Nigerians are very angry! Insecurity everywhere, poverty, joblessness and now Covid-19, disease, despair and desperation have eaten deep into people’s patience and good sense.”

He maintained that Police and other agencies’ illegal arrests were “a deliberate attempt to dishonour this government and cause more hatred against it.”

Tofa noted that because of Nastura’s situation, “I have the nasty and angry, often abusive words, uttered against the President by hitherto his supporters’

“President Buhari should be very careful. He should begin to know and appreciate his true and sincere friends, and get rid of his enemies, who do tremendous harm to his image and his own future well being and safety.”

Tofa said Buhari must remember that in three years, someone else will be President.

“I, and millions of other Nigerians, condemn the arrest of Nastura Sharif and other Nigerians who were either killed or injured simply because they came out to demonstrate and make their views known in a peaceful manner,” he added.

Tofa demanded Nastura’s immediate release, and all those in detention arrested for protesting the insecurity in Nigeria

PoliticsAllow Buhari, Governors For Third Term - Oko Enya Tells NASS, Attorney-General by sarrki(op): 12:40pm On Jun 15, 2020
A member of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Ebonyi state, Hon. Charles Oko Enya, has beseeched a Federal High Court in Abakiliki, Ebonyi state, to direct the National Assembly and the Attorney-General of the Federation and minister of Justice, Abubakar Malami, to remove constitutional clauses hindering elected President and state governors from seeking a third term in office. In his suit with No: FHC/AI/CS/90/19, which was filed at the court last Wednesday and made available to Daily Trust by his counsel, Barr. Iheanacho Agboti, the APC member is seeking for possible expungement of section 137(1) (b) and 182 (1) (b) in the 1999 constitution (as amended).

He insisted that the sections were infringement on the fundamental human rights of the likes of President Muhammadu Buhari and all state governors excluding the legislators. Hon. Enya explained that the ongoing two-term tenure is discriminatory to section 42(1)(a) and articles 2 and 3 of the African Charter on Human and Peoples rights.

Kindly subscribe here The defendants in the suit were the Clerk of the National Assembly, Mr Mohammed Sani-Omolori, the National Assembly and the Attorney General of the Federation, Abubakar Malami. Our reporter recalled that the applicant, (Hon. Enya), had served as the organising Secretary to President Buhari in the last 2019 polls.

According to him, “that section 137(1)(b)of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria,1999 (as amended) restricting the president to only two terms of four years each, is inoperative by virtue of its discriminatory nature in relation to the executive and legislative branches of government in Nigeria, and therefore null and void and thus inapplicable”. Enya, who is earnestly awaiting the hearing of the matter soon, says he’s seeking the order of the court to direct the first and second defendants to delete and expunge sections 137(1)(b) and 182(1)(b) of the 1999 Constitution (as amended). He also tasked the third defendant as the Chief Law Officer of the federation to give the needed support to the first and second defendants to commence a constitutional amendment that would remove the restrictions and the alleged discrimatory sections on tenure limits.

He added that he is seeking “Order of the court nullifying and setting aside section 137(1)(b) and 182(1) (b) of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, 1999 (as amended). “And directing the first and second defendants to delete and expunge sections 137(1)(b) and 182(1)(b) of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, (as amended)

NORTHERN ELDERS FORUM: STILL GENERAL WITHOUT TROOPS – PRESIDENCY

The Northern Elders Forum (NEF) in a statement Sunday signed by its so-called Convener, Prof. Ango Abdullahi, alleged that the insecurity in some northern states of the country was an indication that President Muhammadu Buhari and the governors of those states have lost control over the protection of the people which is a constitutional duty.

We are not surprised by this latest statement by Prof. Abdullahi, and our past position on what his group represents remains unchanged: a mere irritant and featherweight.
The former vice chancellor signed the statement under the banner of Northern Elders Forum (NEF). Hearing that title, you would think the body was a conglomeration of true elders. But the truth is that NEF is just Ango Abdullahi, and Ango Abdullahi is NEF. It is a quasi-organization that boasts of no credible membership, and its leader is akin to a General without troops.


Before the 2019 presidential election, the one-man army called NEF had shown its antipathy against President Buhari, and its preference for another candidate. They all got beaten together.
NEF is merely waving a flag that is at half-mast. President Buhari steadily and steadfastly focuses on the task of retooling Nigeria, and discerning Nigerians know the true state of the nation. They don’t need a paper tiger to tell them anything.

This was made known in a statement by the President’s Senior Special Assistant on Media and Publicity, Malam Garba Shehu, on Sunday.

There had been reports of gunshots and a breach of security within the Presidential Villa recently.

The situation was said to have been as a result of a squabble among family members and officials of the Presidency.

”This particular incident happened outside the main residence of the President.


”Armed guards and other security personnel assigned to the State House receive the necessary training of especially weapons handling and where they come short, their relevant agencies have their rules and regulations to immediately address them.

A former governorship candidate of the All Progressives Congress in the 2019 general elections, Uche Nwosu, has called on the South East to apologise to other geo-political zones and get their support for the realisation of the 2023 Presidency.

He, however, cautioned that the agitation of the Presidency in 2023 was too early because it could constitute a distraction to the President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari (retd).

According to him, the emergence of Buhari since 2015 will be the shortest route to Igbo Presidency in Nigeria.


Nwosu, a son-in-law to ex-governor Rochas Okorocha of Imo State, spoke with journalists in Abuja.

Nwosu said, “It is too early to talk of 2023 Presidency. It is a distraction for the Presidency. No particular zone should be denied the Presidency of Nigeria. I believe in that stanza of our national anthem. Although tribes and tongues may differ, in brotherhood will stand.

PoliticsImpunity In The Villa As Aisha Buhari, Kids Confront Tunde Sabiu by sarrki(op): 10:32pm On Jun 13, 2020
SAN FRANCISCO, June 12, (THEWILL) – The power tussle in the Presidential Villa between First Lady Aisha Buhari and Sabiu ‘Tunde’ Yusuf, the President’s influential Personal Assistant and favourite nephew, has taken a dangerous turn that could undermine security at the Presidential Villa, with the President’s top security aides’ loyalty split between the opposing camps.

The Villa was thrown into confusion, Thursday night, when the First Lady accompanied by her children – Zahra, Halima and Yusuf, – took a team of policemen led by her Aide-De-Camp to forcefully confront Tunde following an earlier heated disagreement over his refusal to self-isolate after his trip to Lagos to see his wife, who had just given birth to a boy.

Sources familiar with the event said on reaching the House 8 Guest Chalet of the President, where Tunde resides with his family, there was an altercation between him and Mrs. Buhari, her children and her security aides that eventually snowballed into a near fatal brawl.

***Our sources said Tunde, who appeared helpless and clearly outnumbered had to flee on foot.


“This was when Mrs. Buhari’s ADC and four members of her police escort fired some shots into the air as they pursued him. He had been seriously wounded at this time but successfully made it to the residence of Mamman Daura where he would shelter for the night,” a source in the Presidential villa told THEWILL.

The source said the Inspector-General of Police, Mr. Mohammed Adamu, following a briefing on the horrific incident arrived the Presidential Villa Friday morning and ordered Mrs. Buhari’s ADC and all the police personnel attached her who took part in the altercation and shooting arrested and detained.

Narrating the ugly incident to THEWILL, the source at the Villa, who asked to remain anonymous, said: “Let me explain what is really going on so that your journal and your readers can truly understand what is happening in the Villa now, the dynamics and 2023 presidential politics.

“Since Mallam Abba Kyari died, the First Lady has been trying to kick the President’s Personal Assistant who is also his nephew, Tunde (The president named him Tunde in honour of the late Tunde Idiagbon, his former deputy when he was military head of state) out of the Villa so that she can effectively wield full influence over him (The President).

“She believes Tunde and the President’s other relatives are blocking her from having full control of her husband and power in the Villa. But it is obvious that the President does not want this because he has encouraged Tunde to continue with his job.

“Tunde’s wife just delivered a boy in Lagos. So, he got the President’s approval to fly to Lagos to see her with his two sisters last weekend. He returned to Abuja last Sunday and returned to work on Monday. He was however asked to self-isolate for 14-days because of the coronavirus pandemic by the Chief Personal Security Officer to the President, Abdulkarim Dauda and the President’s Aide-De-Camp, Mohammed Abubakar, but he told them that the President said he shouldn’t.

“On Thursday, when the First Lady heard that he was still coming to work, she asked him to self-isolate but he told her that the President said he didn’t have to. Her insistence led to a heated verbal exchange between them and the President was later informed about this. The President however took sides with Tunde and didn’t see any reason why he should self-isolate at all. He said Zahra and Halima (Buhari’s daughters) left the villa to visit their in-laws when Halima’s husband’s uncle died recently and they didn’t self-isolate on their return. He also pointed to the fact that when his new Chief of Staff, Professor Ibrahim Gambari, went to Lagos too, he didn’t self-isolate on his return, so he didn’t see any reason why Tunde should. So, he overruled her.

“What happened on Thursday night is a big embarrassment. The First Lady and three of her children – Zahra, Halima and Yusuf – took some policemen attached to her, including her ADC to Tunde’s house. They didn’t like the way Tunde spoke to their mother, so they actually went there to fight him. During their confrontation with him, he was overpowered and clearly could not withstand their number, so he ran for his dear life.

“It was as he was running and they were chasing him that they shot a few times into the air. They chased him to the house of his uncle, Mamman Daura. Of course, they couldn’t enter Mamman’s residence to get Tunde but they shouted and made a lot of threats before they eventually left.

“Do you know that Yusuf later went back to Tunde’s house in the wee hours of the morning with a gas tank to burn it down? Thank God Tunde wasn’t home when he got there. That was what saved his life.

“The DSS is responsible for the security at the villa. Gunshots were fired at the villa and the DSS, that is responsible for security, has not detained the shooters? No one has been questioned. This is even a dangerous precedence for visitors to the villa, including Ministers and top government functionaries.

“This would send a wrong and scary signal. You can be shot at or brutally attacked in the Presidential Villa at the First Lady’s orders if you do go against her. This is not how it should be!

“You see, Nasir El-rufai and Lamido Sanusi are the ones using the First Lady to heat up things in the villa since Abba Kyari died because of their interest in the 2023 presidential election. This is what is escalating this whole new fight for full access to the president. She already has the Chief of Staff on her side so she doesn’t want Tunde giving the President contrary views and advise. She wants everyone against her out of the villa but that is not going to happen.”

She must be a bastard to have said that nonsense. Aside the palliatives you only shared in the North, and the expired rice you gave afonjas, did anything come to the East??

God will punish this wicked woman for not sharing palliatives in the East and still having the effrontery to lie against us.
They actually gave palliatives in the southeast

What I don’t agree to is saying to everyone

How did she reached that conclusion and statistics
