FORMER Spokesman of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu Campaign Organizations in the Southeast, Dr. Josef Onoh has reacted to former Vice-President Atiku Abubakar's comments after President Tinubu slipped at Abuja on Wednesday, June 12, 2024 parade ground while he was trying to enter Parade Van at the Eagle Square in Abuja.

Onoh who is the current Chairman of Forum of former members of Enugu State House of Assembly and National Coordinator of Asiwaju Renewed Mandate Southeast. (ARMSE) said in a message via his official X.com monitored by SOJ WORLDWIDE that it is not how many times one falls that matters but how one stands after a fall.

He went further that as a human, we can fall once in a while like other great men like the United States President, Joe Biden and other great men who had fallen several times.

He added that Tinubu fell but gained his stand immediately.

He took a swipe at the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP Podium that collapsed during the 2019 general elections in Kebbi State.

"Not how we fall that counts, but how we stand. Like every human alive we all have tripped and had a fall once in a while, some humourous some fatal. World leaders are not immune too.
@officialABAT still standing strong.
We rather keep standing than collapse like the PDP", said @JosefOnoh.

Atiku had earlier posted a message via his official X.com monitored by SOJ WORLDWIDE that he sympathized with Tinubu over the incident.

"I sincerely sympathise with President Bola Tinubu, @officialABAT, over this unfortunate incident as he was set to review the parade on Democracy Day. I do hope that all is well with him." -AA

THE Spokesman of President Bola Tinubu Campaign Organisation (South-East) during the 2023 Presidential Election, Dr. Josef Onoh has urged South-East civil servants to hold their governors accountable for failing to pay the proposed N62,000 minimum wage.

Onoh, who said he was mandated by the Presidency to speak to stakeholders in the South-East especially the media on some issues, disclosed this to newsmen in a Press Conference on Tuesday in Enugu.


He called on civil servants from the South-East to impress on their governors to pay the proposed N62,000 minimum wage as they have no excuse not to pay the wages considering multiple increase of monthly allocation from Federal Accounts Allocation Committee, FAAC.

It would be recalled that most states in the Federation, especially those within the South-East, are saying that they would only be able to pay an average of N40,000 as minimum wage.

According to Onoh, the various State Governments have been empowered as well as devised more Internally Generated Revenue (IGR) means to pay and they should not push it to the Federal Government.

He said,

“As it stands, the Federal Government is only worried about the private sector, not just that they can pay the proposed N62,000 minimum wage but how they can sustain the payment. However, the Federal Government is considering this.

“But for the states, they have all the capacity and capability to pay and not default.

“In recent months; the states’ monthly Federal allocation had increased three fold and with huge money coming to the state monthly.

“While, you will agree with me that most states have increased their IGR geometrically by engaging in massive taxations and levies.

“They should pay and not push the blame or their inadequacies to the Federal Government.”

Onoh, a former lawmaker in Enugu State House of Assembly, noted that in particular the South-East “has the capacity to pay and the governors should not deny that”.

He appealed to the Governors of the South-East to rally round and come out with ways to pay the proposed wage as well as set a uniform standard payment within the zone.

“These back and forth being put up by the Governors, especially those of the South-East, will never benefit the zone and entire country,” he said.

The Spokesman commended the organized labour for not embarking on another round of strike, adding that

 “strike is a huge loss to everyone; both individuals, companies, corporate organizations and government”.

Onoh, who was a former Chairman of Enugu State Capital Territory Development Authority, noted that the South-East Governors and leaders had been lagging behind in tapping in the Renewed Hope Agenda of President Bola Tinubu.

He specifically said that the zone had not tapped optimally from the transport and agriculture policies and programmes of Tinubu administration as it should.

He said,

“Today, the policy of having low interest loans for entrepreneur in the transport business, which the South-East is known for, is there.


“The Federal Government has already ordered 300 CNG buses, which will help to crash the price of transport fare and improve business in that sector.


“The transport companies/entrepreneurs and the South-East Governors have not come to take advantage of this Federal Government-Assisted Transport Scheme as there is a well laid down plan to grow the transport sector.

“Currently there are lots of agricultural programmes ongoing through the support of the Federal Government. Where are our people and their leaders?”

Tribute to the heroine of democracy, Mrs Kudirat Abiola died for democracy they are bastardizing today. She was born in Zaria in 195.  She was shot dead on June 4, 1996.
The bullet penetrated her forehead 28 years ago, along Oregun , Ikeja, Lagos.

Most of the people enjoying the dividends of democracy at the corridors of power today were backing General Sani Abacha to kill and maim innocent Nigerians.

If Madam Kudirat knew some ingrates will take control of democracy she would not have gone further in the struggles to reclaim her husband's mandate to the extent that she would have to die in the struggles.


The news came like wildfire, that the wife of the acclaimed winner of June 12, 1993, presidential elections, Chief MKO Abiola, Mrs Kudirat Abiola was shot dead at Oregun, Ikeja in Lagos on her way to the Canadian Embassy.

It started as a rumour because who could have imagined that someone could have been so cruel to assassinate such a woman activist in daylight? But alas! It was not a rumour, it was real, Mrs Kudirat Abiola was shot in the head by trigger happy killing squad of Sani Abacha "on the order from above."


The trial of former Chief of Army Staff, Lt General Ishaya Bamaiyi (rtd), at an Ikeja High Court, Lagos, with the former driver to Alhaji Mohammed Abacha, son of late General Sani Abacha, gave graphic details of how he and other members of late Abacha's Strike Force killed late Alhaja Kudirat Abiola, wife of late Chief M.K.O. Abiola on June 4, 1996 in Lagos.


Mohammed Abdul (a.k.a Katako), who was giving evidence as prosecution witness, also told the court how members of the killer squad failed in their attempt to assassinate the publisher of The Guardian Newspaper, Mr Alex Ibru, and Afenifere leader, Senator Abraham Adesanya.

The two men alongside Kudirat were considered enemies of the state during Abacha's regime.

The murder of Mrs. Kudirat Abiola sparked nationwide outrage. Following the incarceration of her husband for demanding his mandate as the winner of the 1993 election, which was annulled by Gen. Ibrahim Babangida, Kudirat had led the fight for Abiola's release and the restoration of his mandate.


She had also joined forces with other pro-democracy activists to stoke the anti-military fire and to give the pro-democracy struggle a strong push.

The Lagos State Government took up the case, charging Abacha Chief Security Officer, Maj. Hamza Al-Mustapha; Lateef Shofolahan; a son of Abacha, Mohammed; and former Head of Mobile Police Force Unit, Aso Rock, Rabo Lawal, with conspiracy and murder in the assassination of Kudirat.
The State Ministry of Justice arraigned the accused before a Magistrate Court in Lagos in December 1999 before taking the case to a Lagos High Court the following year.


The star prosecution witness, Sergeant Barnabas Jabila (aka Rogers), in his oral testimonies before the Justice Ade Alabi-led High Court, and later before the panel on Human Rights Abuses headed by Justice Chukwudifu Oputa, gave a vivid account and description of how he collected two Uzi guns from Al-Mustapha, on whose orders he said he assassinated Mrs Abiola.

Jabila, a member of Abacha Strike Force, also told the court that Shofolahan had given information on the movements of Kudirat and that Abacha's son, Mohammed, had lent his Mercedes Benz car and allowed his driver, Mr Mohammed Abdul (aka Katako), to drive the killer gang to the scene of the crime.

Despite their presence at the Oputa Panel proceedings, the indicted individuals could not challenge the witness.
Mohammed, on July 2002, was discharged and acquitted by a 4-1 judgment, much to the chagrin of the late Kudira devotees. Lawal's acquittal followed in July 2011.


In August 2011, as the trial began to wind down, Shofolahan stunned many onlookers when he retracted the statement he gave after his arrest, which said he had worked for Kudirat. Like Al-Mustapha, he said the statement was made under duress and intense torture.

Despite the denial, judgment was delivered on January 30, 2012, 13 years after the trial started, which found Al-Mustapha and Shofolahan guilty. The two men were thereby sentenced to death by hanging.

Prince Olagunsoye Oyinlola recalled the incidents that surrounded the killing of Kudirat Abiola, wife of late business mogul, MKO Abiola.


Oyinlola was in charge of Lagos State as a Military Governor when the incident happened.
The former Osun State Governor, in a chat with newsmen, said the murder was an unfortunate incident he had to grapple with.
His words:

"I was opening the reconstructed Sura Market on Lagos Island that was on June 4, 1996, when I got a call from the current Oba of Lagos, Rilwan Akiolu when he was a Commissioner of Police somewhere in the country then.

He called me and said, your Excellency, have you heard that Kudirat Abiola has been shot?  I quickly rounded off the market event and headed for Ikeja. I called Ogundimu, the Commissioner for Health and he confirmed it.

He said he was there at the hospital battling to see if they could save her life. It was Ogundimu who later gave me the news of her death. Then mischief makers took over.

The next thing they said was that she was coming from my office in Ikeja and that after she left, I sent assassins after her. But I thank God, when eventually the person who shot her, Sergeant Rogers, was arrested and in the course of the trial, he told the story of how he did it, Oyinlola's name did not feature once.

Providence also made President Olusegun Obasanjo to institute the Oputa Panel and at the panel, nobody mentioned my name. You can imagine that kind of thing. I, who had never slapped my wife, so how would I have instigated people to take guns and pursue a woman?
Those were the kinds of intrigues I faced in Lagos. It was something else.


On how he handled security challenges at the time, Oyinlola recalled that criminals took advantage of the socio-political turbulence that came with the agitation against June 12 election annulment.

Security of lives and property became a serious problem. My administration came up with the idea of floating an effective, well-knitted, mobile security outfit code-named Operation Sweep. That was in 1995. Operation Sweep was a joint task force of all the Armed Forces and the police.

It was an entirely new crime-fighting idea. The operatives were out on patrol 24 hours. I was also out on patrol every night. With that, criminals were effectively swept out of Lagos as it became a danger zone for them to operate.

Asiwaju Ahmed Bola Tinubu, Professor Wole Soyinka fled Nigeria to United Kingdom to escape being killed by the Abacha killer-squad to form 'Radio Democracy' which was later changed to 'Radio Kudirat'. The radio operated for one hour in the evening between 8-9pm to reveal every evil plan of the Abacha Regime.

Those whom this writer can vividly remember among those who constituted the team are; Dr Kayode Fayemi, Senator Adeyeye, Professor Wole Soyinka, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu and hosts of other Human Right Activists.


These are the people who fought Abacha regime to a standstill, although there were lots of casualties on the side of activists and National Democratic Coalition, NADECO.

Few of those whose lives were terminated are; a reporter with Tempo and TheNews Magazines, Baguada Kaltho, Chima Ubani, Mrs Kudirat Abiola, Chief Alfred Rewane, Chief MKO Abiola the symbol of June 12, 1993 and hundreds of protesters whose lives were terminated on the streets of Lagos, Ibadan and other major cities across the country.

When Nigeria returned to democracy on October 1, 1999, only Asiwaju Bola Tinubu among those who fought for democracy benefitted from it, other activists led by Chief Gani Fawehinmi backed out because they could not trust the then, General Abdulsalam's sincerity in handing over to a democratically elected civilian.
The rest is story today of people who were Abacha's beneficiaries and supporters of military regimes who took over the centre stages of our democracy they have never suffered for.

ANGRY Nigerians took to their official social media (X.com) to lambast the organized labour for suspending the nationwide strike embarked upon on Monday, June 3, 2024.

Barely 48 hours, the strike was suspended for a week as announced by the Nigeria Labour Congress,  NLC monitored by SOJ WORLDWIDE Correspondent on their official X.com Page.

"@NLCHeadquarters
Strike Action relaxed for one week to allow the conclusion of Negotiation...... Details shortly." - NLC said.


Reactions of angry Nigerians:

"@TheoAbuAgada
I hate you all. Restore my light now. Werey."


"@kasalimi2029
Most people are batching NLC and TUC.
Some of you don’t know what it means to be a union leader in Nigeria.
Those in authority will box you to a corner. You are not safe, your families and friends need to watch their backs.
Why did Nigerians fold their hands even when NLC and TUC were fighting.
The so called workers they are fighting for went home to sleep. That is not how things are done.
If NLC is at the forefront, the NIGERIAN workers that want living wage should follow.
That is how to win a battle with people with democratic look but autocratic mindset.
I don’t blame NIGERIA LABOUR CONGRESS Nigerian workers are docile."

"@osquare78
So you guys think you can use the workers ' Kalukalu machine?
Turn on and turn off turn on turn off?
Strike that you started already, rather than continue until your goal is met, you guys said you’re giving one week to allow the conclusion of negotiations.
So what happens after one week & no agreement is reached, You call another strike??
Then you would have lost relevance."


"@Oladapomikky1
So you guys settled for 60k minimum wage, you guys couldn’t even get at least 100k after all the gra gra."
"Can you guys at least bring the light now, my ogbono will soon spoil."

"@Blacksodje
If you want to fight a war, you never go to the battle ground and have a change of heart or say you want to negotiate further.
You won't have this much backing anytime soon.
That's why no one ever believes your leaders anymore. How we miss the real LABOUR LEADERS back then"

"@AgboObinnaya
This is not how things are done. If you want the government to take this whole thing seriously, you should keep the strike ongoing until the whole issue is rectified especially now that you have the support of the masses.
When you relax the strike action, the government will relax and you will come up with another strike. How do you think the people will feel?"

Bring light back.That is the only issue I have with your strike."


"@Choplifestyle_

Following deaths and other forms of bloody violence recorded on Thursday's 'Biafra Day' commemoration at the Obikabia Junction in Ogbor Hill, Abia State.

The former campaign Spokesman of President Tinubu in the zone, Dr. Josef Onoh has suggested that the agitating States should be allowed the South East States to referendum to know if separation from Nigeria is majority opinion of the people in the South East Nigeria after which any state that opts out of our country Nigeria will cut all ties with us and any act of terrorism on their part will be declared as a state of war and our Armed Forces can fully engage them from the point of war.

Onoh however said that he commiserates  with the Nigerian Armed Forces who lost their men in the unfortunate incident and also condole with the families of other Nigerians who lost their loved ones in the "cowardice act."

Our soldiers were not trained to be killed by those they were trained to protect.

According to Onoh,

"The South East east Governors should come together and engage these Agitators jointly than separately which has been the major loopholes these criminals have leveraged on to constantly unleash mayhem in the region.

I am disappointed that all the elites and billionaires including politicians are dancing 'Owambe' in other safe regions of the country while remaining silent as their region is on fire and besieged by criminals.


They would rather spend their wealth on Police protection in which some of them have more Policemen attached to them than the President himself.

If the President declares State of Emergency in the South East to contain the situation they will condemn him and bring in tribal and political sentiments.

Today in the South East, both economic and infrastructural development has declined drastically, they work from Tuesday to Thursday, Fridays is now for burials, Saturdays for weddings and traditional marriages, Sundays for thanksgivings and child dedication and the Almighty Monday is now for resting and house chores.

What a shame in once a peaceful and vibrant region!

Clearly, Eastern Security Network  (ESN), Indigenous Peoples of Biafra (IPOB) and their collaborators are not to blame rather it is the attitude of 99% of people resident in the South East and their selfish exploitation of the sit at home to their own comfort that has fuelled the situation.  Nnamdi Kanu and Simon Ekpa not to be blamed for the upheavals in the South East but the Igbos who gives tacit support and are indifference to the crisis. 

For how long should we continue to kill ourselves under the guise of fighting for freedom?   It is unfortunate that most of the soldiers killed in yesterday's bloody mayhem are from Igbo extraction. 


How many Yorubas did Sunday Igboho killed in his agitation for Oduduwa Republic?  It is time all Igbos put on their 'thinking cap' and take full responsibility for what is happening in their land. 

They even circulate propaganda videos on social media 24hrs before each sit at home just to promote fear and ensure they don't go to work, open the markets. I say shame on them!

The residents even frustrate the efforts of their respective Governors hence defeating the very purpose these Governors have attempted to individually contain.

Finally, our brave men and women of the Armed Forces have sacrificed a lot to be killed for nothing, the inaction of the Police hirarchy during the ENDSARS protests that saw criminals killing and beheading Police Officers have risen to the mayhem we face today and the boldness of burning Police stations.


We only have only one country, I can comfortably call on our patriots in the region that our brave soldiers must not die in vain, ensure their families find succour in a matter of days.

THE Elemo-Aga and Oluomo of Ikirunland, High Chief Bamidele Marouf Onifade welcomed the Osun State Chairman of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Alhaji Tajudeen Lawal Sooko and other party Executives to his palatial residence at Ikirun on Wednesday, May 29, 2024.

It was at the occasion of  declaration of intent of Oluomo Onifade to join the APC from the PDP along with his followers who said they had no option than to go wherever Elemo-Aga goes.

Many of the PDP Chieftains including Oladosun Kamorudeen popularly known as 'Ultimate', Wasiu Oluaye and hundreds of their loyalists also declared their total support for the APC because of Oluomo Onifade.

Onifade declared his intent to join the APC has nothing to do with any political ambition or contesting for any elective position but to see to the welfare of people at his immediate constituency at Ifelodun Local Government Area comprising of 13 Wards.

"I have been inspired by the positive leadership demonstrated by our President, His excellency Asiwaju Bola Hamed Tinubu, The President of the Republic of Nigeria.

And the direction in which our country is headed under his guidance. I firmly believe that by aligning myself with the All progressive Congress, I can contribute to the continued progress and prosperity of our nation.

I am committed to upholding the values and principles of the party and working tirelessly to support its agenda for the betterment of our society. I look forward to actively participating in the party's activities and contributing to its success in any way I can.

Mr Chairman Hon. Tajudeen Sooko, kindly consider this as my public declaration of intent to join APC, I am eager to embark on this journey with you and contribute to the bright future of our country."

It was a carnival like event as party members that belonged to many factions of the APC came together as one because of Onifade whom many attendees testified to his resolve to banish poverty in Ikirunland, even whe he was not a member of any political party.

A Chieftain of the PDP testified to the fact that Onifade always took care of them when the party whom they worked tirelessly for abandoned them.

Onifade said he decided to join the APC having done his secret findings about the policies and positive direction of the Federal Government under the leadership of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu. According to him, he discovered that the President meant well for the prosperity of Nigeria hence many of his courageous plans and strategies to put things in place for the generality of the populace.

The August visitor, the APC Chairman, Alhaji Sooko said the entrance of Chief Onifade into his party on Wednesday was his heart's desire and answer to his silent prayers that God should support him with good people. Now God has answered him with one-in-a-million man like Onifade and thousands of his followers.

Sooko said he particularly thanked  God that the Elemo-Aga did not join the party when it was in power, he said, people would thought that he joined because he was in need of political appointment but "he chose the best time by coming at this time when the party is in the opposition.  It is evident that he did not join our party for any political gain but for the well-being of his people."

Sooko appeal to all members in Ifelodun Local Government Area to join ranks and make sure that the 2026 governorship election will be a landslide victory for the party.

He said despite the large turnout today, a day will be set aside for the official declaration of Chief Onifade and other members of the PDP to declare for the APC.

Dignitaries who witnessed the carnival like event includes, the APC Chairman, Alhaji Tajudeen Lawal Sooko, Women Leader, Alhaja Kudirat Fakokinde, Youth Leader, Comrade Goke Akinwemimo.

Ifelodun Leaders

Dr. (Hon) Mulikat Abiola Jimoh, Hon. Kehinde Olamolu, Chief Moshood Oluawo, Elder Z.H. Agboola, Hon Kola Akanji, Hon. Adeniyi Abdulrauf, Hon. Kareem Saheed among others.

The event was thrilled to dancing mood by the popular band, Alhaja Asikomitito.

The Kano State Deputy Governor, Aminu Gwarzo has tendered unreserved apology to the National Security Adviser, NSA, Nuhu Ribadu on Monday, May 27, 2024 in reaction to a Press Release signed by the former Campaign Spokesman of President Bola Tinubu in the South East, Dr. Josef Onoh published by SOJ WORLDWIDE on Sunday, May 26, 2024.

Onoh had advised the Deputy Governor on Sunday thus;

"As I urge all parties to refrain from escalating a delicate situation and also urged H.E. the Deputy Governor of Kano State to retract his previous statement accusing the Presidency of interference as I hope to believe he may have not been duly informed with correct details prior to making his statement."

Gwarzo in his apology said he was misled into believing that the National Security Adviser, Mallam Nuhu Ribadu was responsible for providing two Private Jets that convened the deposed Emir of Kano, Ado Bayero into Kano City.

It will also be noted that Ribadu vehemently denied his involvement or the Presidency in the allegation of providing two Jets or in one way or the other intervened in the Kano Emirates logjam.

The NSA threatened a legal action against the Deputy Governor unless he can prove his allegations.


In another development, Onoh condemned the action of former Vice-President and former Presidential Candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Abubakar Atiku in total terms saying his action is an act of irresponsibility expected of a statesman.

"I am disappointed in the former PDP Presidential Candidate, Atiku for chosing to play a dirty politics at the detriment of the national unity and peace. And I ask Atiku, if this is the type of Nigeria he wants to lead as a President? Had it been he won, he would have compromised the national security of Nigeria"

Onoh wondered if this is the way Atiku would have led a country as diverse as Nigeria.

Onoh who is the Coordinator of ASIWAJU Renewed Mandate Southeast (ARMS) advised the former Vice-president to always play maturity on issues of national security.

"I want to advise Atiku to play maturity on issues as volatile as national security and cohesion of Nigeria.
The respect accorded to him as an Elderstesman by the Presidency is not an act of weakness and there is also a limit to political rascality and when that rascality turns to compromising the national unity there are dire consequences, hence he should guide his utterances."

"As an Elderstesman, I expect Atiku to work for peace in Nigeria not to aggravate issues. His action showed his desperation to rule Nigeria at all costs which is an illusion though."

It will be recalled that when the tension for the Kano Emirates was high, Atiku issued a Press Statement accusing the Presidency of taking sides with the intent to destabilize the peace people have been enjoying in decades.

Atiku in his statement said,

"We need to remind the Tinubu administration that Kano State is known for peace and harmony spanning thousands of years and any attempt to destabilise the peace of the Land of Commerce shall be resisted."

"… the former emir could not have made his way into the Nasarawa Palace without the support of the Federal Government having done so with the support of the army and other security personnel in his company.


The deployment of soldiers in extra-constitutional matters such as this undermines the integrity of the Nigerian military,”

The former Campaign Spokesman of President Bola Tinubu in the South East, Dr. Josef Onoh has described the attempt to drag President Bola Tinubu and the Presidency into Kano State Emirate tussle an act of political rascality taken too far.

Kano State Deputy Governor, Aminu Abdussalam, revealed in an interview with journalists in Kano where he indicted the National Security Adviser, Mallam Nuhu Ribadu of fueling the crisis in Kano Emirates.

"That the National Security Adviser, Nuhu Ribadu ordered the return of HRH Aminu Ado Bayero as Emir of Kano, we’re confused,” he stated.

The Deputy Governor had expressed his administration’s confusion and concern over the Federal directive.

Onoh reacting to the allegations said,

"In Nigeria today, if husband and wife have a private family misunderstanding, they will blame it on President Tinubu"

The accusation attempting to involve the Presidency is simply a well thought out mischievous plan to pitch the North against the administration of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

I'm aware some certain individuals in the North are not comfortable with the position Malam Nuhu Ribadu took over some comments made by some Northern Elites few months ago hence we are not surprised at the unsubstantiated accusations.

The President is focused on the heavy burden of stabilising our Economy which the administration on assumption of office met in a Intensive Care Units (ICU) in a state of coma.


Aside from H.E. Governor Siminalayi Fubara of Rivers State, I was the second Nigerian to boldly Congratulate His Eminence Emir Sanusi and the people of Kano State while encouraging them to maintain peace and order irrespective of divided personal interests each person may hold.

Governor Yusuf signed the Kano State Emirates Council (Amendment Number 2) Law, 2024, which was aimed to consolidate the emirate system under Kano and reinstate Mallam Sanusi Lamido Sanusi II, who was deposed in 2020.

We are aware that Chieftaincy matters remains a residual issues within the constitution that only the State Government and the Local Government have powers of control and administration hence it's ridiculous to involve the President Tinubu and the Presidency.

Irrespective of the Kano Federal High Court injunction which clearly caused the confusion, only the State High Court or Customary Court, Grand Khadi Court in the North have jurisdiction to hear and determine issues relating to Chieftaincy, therefore, injunction relating to Chieftaincy cannot be validly issued by the Federal High Court.


It is wise that all parties apply wisdom especially when the two major individuals are cousins, hence it is not wise to allow politics to divide that which binds both together.


A valid Court Order irrespective of the circumstance must be obeyed.


However, under such circumstances, if the Federal High Court ultimately determines or finds that it does not have jurisdiction but that it is the High Court, in this case, the High Court of Kano State (or another court) that has jurisdiction, the Federal High Court has power, instead of striking out the matter, to transfer the same to the relevant and appropriate Court of jurisdiction.

Hence, it is only wise all parties refrain from dragging politics into such delicate situation.

Finally, On whether an injunction can stop or restrain a completed act, considering that as of the time the Federal High Court made the said interim restraining order, Governor Yusuf had already reportedly signed the Bill into law as well as reinstated Emir Sanusi Lamido.

My opinion is this, that if the reinstatement of Emir Lamido Sanusi had already been carried out before the Interim Order by Hon Justice Liman of the Federal High Court was (later) made, one wonders which action the said order was or is now targeting to stop or restrain.


In an unreported Appeal No: FCA/M6/82 (DAVID "DADA & ANOR FOR THEMSELVES AND OTHER MEMBERS OF MALAOYE (ADEITAN) AND OLUGBOGBO RULING HOUSES OF ADA V. CHAIRMAN OF IFEKODUN LOCAL GOVERNMENT CHIEFTAINCY COMMITTEE & ORS)", the Court of Appeal had held that 
 “When a Court is asked to restrain a party from doing an act pending the decision in a matter before it, but the act has been done, no order to restrain will be made. The reason is simple as it is clear. What is sought to be prevented has in fact happened”.

As I urge all parties to refrain from escalating a delicate situation and also urged H.E. the Deputy Governor of Kano State to retract his previous statement accusing the Presidency of interference as I hope to believe he may have not been duly informed with correct details prior to making his statement.

While we await the outcome of the pending legal issues. And if going by the allegation of the Kano State Government that the Judge was outside the country when the order was issued.

To the best of my knowledge, guidelines for Virtual Court Proceedings (2020) only allowed virtual hearings in certain circumstances, such as urgent matters, interlocutory applications, pre-trial conferences and simple civil cases.


"However, the guidelines mandate that the Judge, parties, and legal
representatives be within Nigeria's
territorial boundaries during virtual proceedings."


"So, a Judge of the Federal High Court of Nigeria cannot sit over a case virtually from outside the country; he must be within Nigeria's borders to participate in virtual court proceedings," Onoh said.

I once more extended my Congratulations To His Eminence, Emir Sanusi Lamido Sanusi, CON, May His Reign Continue To Be Marked By Wisdom, Compassion, And Prosperity For The People Of Kano And Beyond.

I received with dismay yesterday the news of the purported approval of permanent employments of some freelance staff of the Osun State Broadcasting Corporation (OSBC) by Governor Ademola Adeleke which littered the media space, claiming that the governor has approved permanent employments for the freelance staff of the Corporation. The claim is not only fallacious, satirical but ridiculous that a government would boldly claim the glory that doesn't belong to it.

For record purposes, the uninterrupted twelve years of the progressive government witnessed a tremendous landmark in the history of the state particularly on the state government-owned media outfit (OSBC) as many interventions were made to reposition the station to compete favourably with its counterparts in the digital world in line with the best practices in the broadcasting industry across the globe.

It is on record that the administration of the erstwhile Governor Adegboyega Oyetola did not only prioritize the station in the scheme of things while he was serving as the governor but he also ensured that all the 66 freelance staff who were presented to him were recruited into the State Civil Service and issued with employment letters before he exited office in 2022.

It is documented that former Governor Oyetola in his magnanimity after he painstakingly considered the request of the management of the broadcast station graciously and expressly approved permanent jobs for the said 66 freelance workers who were hitherto placed on monthly stipends by the Corporation for several years.

Records also showed that all the claims made by the management as to the requisite needs for the employment at that material time were made and fulfilled not until the incumbent government through its anti-workers' Executive Order nullified the appointment and invalidated the legal actions taken by the former governor for no just cause.

Recall that Governor Adeleke upon assumption of office issued different Executive Orders to nullify many of the official steps and actions constitutionally taken by his predecessor for personal and political reasons, a heinous decision that led to the sack of many traditional rulers, thousands of the Volunteers/Cadets of Osun Youth Employment Schemes (OYES); vendors of Osun School Feeding and Health Programme popularly called (OMEAL); School Teachers; Health Workers among others.

However, the instrumentality of the obnoxious Executive Order which was a product of vendetta and political vindictiveness was equally applied on the OSBC freelance staff by the governor when he assumed office as he deliberately ordered for the immediate withdrawal of their employment letters in compliance with the fresh anti-people decision. By implication, the pronouncement made by the government on the fresh employments was nothing but a charade and a purely political jamboree calculated to score a cheap and unmerited political point.

One would wonder how a government remains hellbent in taking glory of good works that do not belong to it? It is crystal clear that the discerning citizens who could separate the grains from the chaff know the truth, nothing but the truth between the genuine leaders and political interlopers and impostors.

It is on record that the same PDP-led government in Osun went on air to claim the glory of Osogbo-Ikirun road that had reached 80 per cent completion before coming to power. One would still wonder how possible in Nigeria of today for such a dual carriage way will be completed within some days and with less than 500 million if not for scam and fraudulent tendencies.

While it is necessary for the citizens to be more vigilant and wary of the deceptive nature of the current government, I want to say with every sense of modesty that no fresh employment was made whatsoever in OSBC as the narrative pushed out by the government media handlers was not only misleading and egocentric, it is indeed a fiction from the pit of the hell which was fabricated to hoodwink the unsuspecting members of the public particularly the bureaucrats.

We were in the state when the state government under the leadership of Governor Adeleke in an effort to tarnish the image of the erstwhile governor claimed that the Government House was looted which later proved to be a mere fabrication. We were in Osun when the state government erroneously claimed that government vehicles were carted away which till today still remained sophistic. We were in Osun when the incumbent government said no meaningful effort was made in the mineral resources particularly in the mining sector by the previous administration which later proved untrue but quite unfortunate, till today nothing meaningful has been made by the current government to fulfill its promises in that regard.

We were in Osun when the state government claimed it established the Ilesa University which had been far approved and established by the former Governor Oyetola. We were in the state when the current government claimed that it only met humongous debt but failed to acknowledge the huge amount of money to the tune of N14bn left in the state's coffers by its predecessor. These and many were credible claims to describe the kind of government that governs our dear state today.

As a discerning mind, opinions are free, truths are sacred. We can't dissipate meaningful effort on this claim because it has no substance to be debated upon.

But for the benefit of the general public on this fresh phoney employments of Governor Adeleke, the truth is that a list comprised of 66 names of freelance staff were presented by the OSBC management to the former Governor Oyetola for approval and same were granted which later snowballed into the permanent employments of those people then. No more, no less. So, the yesterday drama was just a reversal of the obnoxious Executive Order that was used to withdraw the appointment letters from the beneficiaries.

May God heal our land!

IF urgent measures is not taken by the Federal Government security agents, breakdown of law and order is imminent in Kano.

The deposed Emir of Kano arrived Kano City on Saturday morning with a mission to occupy the Palace where the new reinstated Emir, Sanusi Lamido Sanusi is already occupying with the backing of the State Governor, Abba Yusuf.

Governor Yusuf had ordered the arrest of the deposed Emir, Ado Bayero for causing tension and an attempt to breach the peace of the city.

Aina Dipo wrote on his official X.com Page monitored by SOJ WORLDWIDE,

"Military officers arrived at Gidan Nassarawa to escort the 15th Emir of Kano, HRH Aminu Ado Bayero, to the Main Emir's Palace where the 16th Emir of Kano, Muhammad Sanusi II, is also located.

Meanwhile, the Deputy governor of Kano, accompanied by his security personnel, remains alongside Emir Sanusi Muhammad II in a commitment to not depart from the palace. 

The Kwankwasiyya Movement has urged all its members to move to the Emir Palace where the 16th Emir of Kano, Muhammad Sanusi is located, to prevent the reinstatement of the 15th Emir of Kano, Aminu Ado Bayaro.

This matter is escalating too fast."

Meanwhile, TVC News, in his 'Exclusive' news on its official X.com Page monitored by SOJ WORLDWIDE wrote;

"EXCLUSIVE: The reinstated Emir of Kano, Muhammad Sanusi II has returned to the Kano Emir’s Palace in the early hours of Saturday.

The Emir arrived at the Kano Royal Palace in company of Governor Abba Yusuf, his deputy, Aminu Abdussalam and the speaker of the Kano State House of Assembly, Yusuf Falgore.

Heavy security has been deployed to the Kano Emir’s Palace to maintain law and order.


The Emir of Kano while interacting with journalists expressed joy at the development thanking the government at state and national level for their support."

The troubles in Kano Emirship, Nigerians said was caused by the politicians struggling for supremacy at the detriment of our traditional institutions.
