Vice President of Nigeria, Yemi Osinbajo urged Nigerians to return the All Progressives Congress (APC) government.

Prof. Yemi Osinbajo said though the postponement of 2019 Presidential and National Assembly polls came unexpected, the electorate must not discouraged.

This was contained in an open letter he wrote, titled “A time such as this!”.

He thanked Nigerians for their support in 2015 and appealed for more during Saturday’s pills.

See full text below:

“In the past weeks and over the course of my time in office, I have interacted with everyday Nigerians not only to give account of our stewardship, but also to listen.

Across the length and breadth of our great country, I’ve seen and heard passionate Nigerians who work hard to earn a decent and dignified life.

Working closely with President Muhammadu Buhari, we have had the privilege to share our vision of a country where all Nigerians, regardless of tribe, class and background can aspire to a viable future and dignified existence.

This belief is something that President Buhari has borne and demonstrated for decades as a soldier, public servant, candidate, and now, as President.

Now more than ever before, we feel we are truly at the cusp of greatness.

In 2015, on the platform of the All Progressives Congress (APC), we undertook to tackle insecurity, corruption and an economy characterised by extremely deficient infrastructure and the sheer abundance of poverty.

Despite extenuating circumstances, we have worked hard to actualise our mission.

A nation at war, we delivered on our commitment to secure our territorial integrity by liberating 17 Local Government Areas from the grip of insurgency.

We halted the march of the insurgents to Kaduna, Kano and Abuja where they had bombed churches, mosques, government buildings including the UN building and Police Headquarters in Abuja before 2015.

Today the activities of insurgents and the new ISIS West Africa (ISWA) are largely restricted to Northern Borno.

I, like many other Nigerians, have believed, all of my life, that our nation has sufficient resources to provide a dignified existence for most of our citizens.

Our curse has been the character of leadership that has often advanced personal gain as the underlying motive for public service.

I know that has changed since 2015 and many can see that as well.

We are doing far much more with lesser resources than prior administrations.

Corruption is the singular reason why for many years before 2015, uncompleted or non-existent infrastructure littered the landscape just as poverty alleviation schemes were additional vehicles that enriched only a handful at the expense of a growing and aggrieved population.

Inevitably, the inequality gap is the underlying cause of insecurity and social tension.

Over the last three and a half years, we have laid the foundations for a stable and prosperous country for our people.

The nation’s wealth is now being invested in capital projects to expand infrastructure and connect people, goods and opportunities by rail, road and air.

We have introduced several measures to ease doing business in Nigeria, and also ensure that micro, small and medium businesses can access government services and loan facilities.

We also took an unprecedented step towards creating a fairer and more equitable society by implementing Africa’s biggest social investment programme.

Through the National Social Investment Programme, we are providing direct support to over 13 million Nigerians who need it by giving relief and assistance to unemployed youth, our children, the weak and vulnerable as well as small and medium businesses.

We are directly providing the majority of our people a path out of poverty.

We know that building a compassionate nation under the rubric of social justice, led by the Federal Government, is not only desirable to right-thinking Nigerians, but is a national imperative.

This is why the Federal Government did not hesitate to support state governments with bailouts that enabled them to pay unpaid state workers, as well as taking on the responsibility of settling decades of unpaid pension liabilities to retirees of moribund federal enterprises.

While we continue to believe that the primary role of leadership is to advance good for the people of Nigeria, there are many challenges that still beset the nation.

For decades, not much was done by way of focused human capital development. Our priorities for the next four years, if elected, are set out in our Next Level Roadmap document.

We believe that the gains in providing free meals for children in public primary schools must now be deepened with our plan to revamp education through a focus on Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Mathematics (STEAM);

prioritising digital literacy; retraining all teachers in primary and secondary schools, and also remodelling and equipping our classrooms.

Our Next Level Roadmap also outlines our plans for employment, skills development, health, power, agriculture, industrialisation, inclusion in governance, among others.

We are clear in our minds that many of the APC’s programmes are designed to give Nigerians a lift and make them successful.

A lot of thought, rigorous analysis and governance experience went into the development of these programmes and we know that they are feasible once we put our mind to them.

We are running for a second term in office because we believe things will improve significantly than they currently are if we stay the course.

We are faced with a choice to keep building a Nigeria where conscience drives the ship of state- making a break from a tainted past which widened the inequality gap.

Our choices will shape us – our economic security and our future prosperity. Nigeria, more than ever before, needs a stable and people-focused government to move the agenda for our country forward.

The task of laying a foundation is hard and tedious work. It’s neither glamorous nor exciting for the builder or the observer.

Yet without it, the pleasure of a completed building remains a dream.

The Buhari administration has spent the last three and a half years laying the foundation.

We are asking you to join in putting up the building over the next four years.

May I respectfully request you to perform your civic responsibility by going out to vote and I’m confident that by the grace of Almighty God, we will all go to the next level of growth, prosperity and peace.

Let’s join hands to create a nation we can be proud of. God bless you.”

On Thursday, 19 Feb, 2019, ALagos High Court issued a bench warrant for the arrest of a former Super Eagles international, Austin Okocha, popularly known as Jay Jay Okocha, for failure to appear in court severally to answer questions on why he has allegedly failed to pay his income taxes.

The prosecutor, Dr Jide Martins, had on June 6, 2017, filed the charge.

The case came up for the first time on Oct. 5, 2017, but the defendant did not appear in court.

The prosecutor had told the court that the defendant had failed to furnish the Lagos State Internal Revenue Services, with a return of income for tax purposes.

Legal icon and elder statesman, Professor Ben Nwabueze SAN, has lamented over the appointment of Muslims as the head of the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, by President Muhammadu Buhari.

Nwabueze stated that Buhari started preparing ground to manipulate the 2019 election when he replaced Amina Zakari with Mahmood Yakubu as INEC Chairman, who are both Northerners.

In a statement he issued yesterday, the elder statesman lamented that Buhari was contented in installing a Northerner as INEC Chairman.

He:

“The Commission is constituted and designated as an agency, not of the Executive, but of the National Assembly, to which it is made accountable and must report its activities and the performance of its functions at least once a year, which implies that its members owe their tenure of office to the Assembly.

“By the express injunction of the Constitution, “no person or organ of state may interfere with the functioning of the Commission”.

The home crowd greet the final whistle with measured applause.

Their team put in a tremendous effort and will fancy their chances of scoring an away leg, especially with Nabil Fékir back.

Barcelona will be confident of netting in the Camp Nou too, of course, but they will have to finish better than they did here.

Their precision continually abandoned them at the crucial moment.

In the end, they were thankful for a fabulous save by Ter Stegen, who pushed a shot by Terrier on to the crossbar in the first half.

The second leg will be well worth following - and you’ll be able to do that right here. See ya!

Buhari Campaign Reacts To Postponement Of Elections, Accused INEC, PDP

https://wiseloaded.com/buhari-campaign-postponement-of-elections-inec-pdp/

Nigeria Decides: Why INEC, Buhari govt should be blamed for postponement of presidential election – Atiku begs Nigerians

The Peoples Democratic Party presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, has reacted to Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) decision on election postponement for the Presidential/National Assembly and Gubernatorial/House of Assembly.

INEC Chairman, Professor Mahmood Yakubu, addressing reporters at the press centre of the commission’s headquarters in Abuja, the nation’s Capital, said that the polls would not go on as planned due to some challenges encountered by the commission.

He explained that the decision to postpone the polls followed a careful review of the implementation of the logistics and operational plans put in place for the exercise.

Alhaji Atiku Abubarka, in a statement he personally signed in the early hours of Saturday, described the situation as unfortunate.

Atiku blamed Buhari for failure to utilise the time it had to organise the elections.

He related the actions of INEC to the Biblical hand of Esau but the voice of Jacob.


The statement read:

“As you know, the Independent National Electoral Commission has announced a postponement of the elections until 23 February and 9 March respectively.

The Buhari administration has had more than enough time and money to prepare for these elections and the Nigerian people were poised and ready to perform their civic responsibility by voting in the elections earlier scheduled for Saturday, 16 February, 2019.

This postponement is obviously a case of the hand of Esau but the voice of Jacob.

No, nobody will unseat me,” he replied tersely.

Emiliano Sala: Cardiff City has given conditions for paying Sala’s transfer fee

Cardiff City chairman, Mehmet Dalman, has said the club are still gathering information over the £15million fee due to Nantes, for the transfer of Emiliano Sala and will pay up if “contractually obliged”.

Emiliano Sala had signed for the Bluebirds in a club-record move from Nantes last month, but was killed when the private plane carrying him crash-landed in the English Channel.

Nantes have already requested the first instalment of payment for Sala’s transfer fee.

Dalman insists the Welsh club must do their own due diligence, before deciding how to proceed.

“Of course, if we are contractually obliged to pay them then of course we will.

“We are an honourable club. But if we are not – and there are some anomalies in that – then surely you would expect me as the chairman and guardian of this club’s interests to look into that and hold our position. That is what we are doing.

“We are still in the process of gathering information and that process will be ongoing.

And when we reach a level where we have enough information, I am sure we will sit down with Nantes and move forward,” the Cardiff chairman said to BBC Sport Wales.

Nnamdi Kanu, the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, has blasted the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, for attacking him over his claim that Atiku Abubakar was from Cameroon.

Nnamdi Kanu also insisted that President Muhammadu Buhari was dead and has been replaced with Jubril al Sudani fron Sudan.

He maintained that he was not for any political party, describing anyone thinking otherwise as twisted, perverted and ignorant.

He stated:

“Every political party in the zoo are all Fulani owned. Fulani conquered Hausa and Hausa helped them to conquer parts of Yorubaland as such, we IPOB don’t have any business in zoo presidential elections.”

“When I said Buhari was dead and replaced by a double, an imposter, Jubril al-Sudani from Sudan, Lai Mohammed and APC machinery said Nnamdi Kanu has been bought over by PDP, he is working for the opposition and has been paid millions of dollars to disparage and smear the name of Mohammadu Buhari and ridicule Nigeria in the eyes of international countries.

“Now that I have said the simple verifiable truth that Atiku Abubakar is a Cameroonian by birth but became a Nigerian by Choice (Referendum), PDP are up in arms saying Nnamdi Kanu signed a pact with the APC led Federal Government and is working for APC to deplete the votes of South East whilst he’s far away in London.

These PDP e-rats and their Alimajiri APC counterparts remind me of the stupefying ignorance of Jihadists all over the world.

“When you catch them perpetrating their usual atrocity they tell you its Israel and the West sponsoring terror attacks against their own citizens. They never confront the truth starring them in the face. How twisted, perverted and ignorant they are.

“It was this same Atiku they are dying for today that joined the same late Buhari they want IPOB to vote out to chase Jonathan out of Aso Rock. How many times will a Fulani rule Nigeria?

How many times will people allow Fulani only presidential candidates? What type of god created these PDP e-rats? I asked a question on my page which nobody has been able to answer to date.

“What do you think other Nigerians will say, especially Yoruba, if Apapa Wharf and Tin Can Island were shut down and every maritime trade moved to Calabar and Igweocha?

“Do you think Fulani caliphate will allow another ethnic group to rule Nigeria the same number of years as themselves?

If the might of the Nigerian state and international media conspiracy could not defeat IPOB, how much less this band of self loathing reprobates.

“They may have learnt.”
