Abugab: It was in Jonathan's time criminals were living larger than life. Had many young ones complaining about wasting their time studying and working hard when being a criminal makes you an instant billionaire. I can see the pendulum swinging back where there will be dignity in labour and the era of monkey dey work baboon dey chop will be completely eroded. They just tonnes down their living standards, they will soon see the other side of the coin fully where it is hard knocks.  |

Politics › After Jonathan's Exit: Ex-Niger Delta Militants Tone Down Lifestyles- Leadership by tayebest(op): 2:14pm On Aug 22, 2015 |
Less than four months after the end of the administration of President Goodluck Jonathan, the robust and millionaire lifestyles of known ex-militant leaders from states of the Niger Delta has changed tremendously.
Gone are those days when monetary rewards and multi-million naira contracts in various forms came their way. It was not uncommon to see some of them flying private and chattered flights and living larger than life while Jonathan held sway as president. Theirs was more a replica of the new kids on the block who came into sudden wealth and decided to flaunt it with careless abandon.
A drive to the home of a typical ex-militant leader would reveal the presence of scores of armed mobile policemen as security aides, escort vehicles and exotic cars in abundance. One was also bound to meet a lot of their boys hanging around their bosses and enjoying choice drinks while elderly people in need of one favour of the other thronged the house. But with the exit of Jonathan from power following his defeat at the polls, a lot of the ex-militants’ lavish lifestyle has tapered off, especially those among them who failed to plan for the future; they have seemingly returned to the pre-Jonathan era when they had nothing except their monthly allowances from the Presidential Amnesty Office.
However, few of them decided to plan ahead. Some ventured into businesses like sand dredging while others ventured into politics. Bayelsa ex-militant leaders such as the second-in-command in charge of the defunct Movement for the Emancipation of Niger Delta (MEND), Dr Ebikabowei Victor- Ben, known along the creeks as BoyLoaf; Pastor Reuben Wilson, known as Pastor Reuben; Comrade Eris Paul, known as General Ogunboss, and Africa Ukparisia, known as General Africa, who hitherto enjoyed a robust lifestyle of millionaires, have adopted quieter lifestyles.
Investigation by LEADERSHIP showed that the defeat of the Jonathan administration, which was the major source of revenue and patronage, and the cancellation of the million-dollar pipeline surveillance contracts awarded by the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) may have got them to realise that they have to tone down on their lavish lifestyles.
https://leadership.ng/wp-content/uploads/2015/08/ex_militants-300x225.jpg
Mujahid Asari Dokubo
The Leader of the Niger Delta People’s Volunteer Force (NDPVF) has been one of the most prominent latter-day militant leader to champion the cause of the Niger Delta people.
The emergence of the Jonathan presidency was like a payback for the ex-militant leader as a lot of financial windfall came his way through various means. He was a strong advocate for the continuation of the Jonathan presidency beyond 2015.
It got to a stage he and Edwin Clark were competing to be the major voice agitating for Jonthan to win the 2015 elections. However, with the defeat of Jonathan, sources close to LEADERSHIP Weekend said he has almost faded out of the public glare, same with the robust lifestyle he was indulging in.
In fact, it was gathered that he now spends more time in Benin Republic where he owns the Amachree African University, KAAU, in addition to the soccer academy he runs in the West African country.
Government Ekpemupolo, alias Tompolo
Having been reduced financially by President Muhammadu Buhari through revocation of most of his lucrative contracts, especially the one to Global West Vessel Specialists Nigeria Ltd (GWVSNL) which he is the chief promoter, Tomplo has also reduced his lavish lifestyle. Though, he’s still being looked at as “warlord,” sources said hundreds of his followers have allegedly dumped him as they search for other means of sustenance.
It was reliably gathered that the ex-militant leader can longer use his private jet because of high maintenance cost.
Unconfirmed sources also said the many women that flocked around him have thinned out. An aide who did not want his name in print said: “Oga Tompolo is not all that broke as people see him at present, though he has stopped the lavish lifestyle he was used to when President Goodluck Jonathan was there (Aso Villa).”
Ebikabowei Victor Ben, alias Commander Boyloaf
Boyloaf works hand-in-hand with Gen Africa to coordinate MEND activities in Bayelsa State though his area of operations is in the Ekeremor and Southern Ijaw axis of the state.
With his education and exposure, BoyLoaf is said to have gotten a better deal out of the Amnesty Programme and was able to build houses in Abuja and Port Harcourt. He also has business in shipping and dredging.
Even though he has always kept a low profile, the exit of Jonathan has further forced him to cut down on his public exposure.
High Chief Ateke Tom Ateke,
popularly known as the ‘Godfather,’ was one of the field commanders of MEND. Now a chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP),
Godfather contested the governorship ticket of the party but later withdrew due to pressures from the former First Lady, Dame Patience Faka Jonathan. Ateke’s contribution to the success of the PDP in the last general elections, which led to the emergence of Governor Ezebunwo Nyesom Wike, has made him one of the decision makers within the party.
It is an open secret that Ateke’s nominees made the list of members of the newly inaugurated caretaker committees for Port Harcourt City, Ogu/Bolo and Okrika local government councils of the state. He has become an institution of sorts in Ijaw politics, has strong influence in Okrika land, and is a leading figure in the sponsored media campaign which discouraged youths in the state from violence and criminality.
Others that have also toned down are:
Hon Fara Doctor Dagogo, Eris Paul alias Ogunboss, Pastor Reuben Wilson alias Gen Pastor and Commander Ukparasa Africa Owei, alias Gen Africa. Source: http://leadership.ng/news/455546/aftermath-of-jonathans-exit-ex-niger-delta-militants-tone-down-lifestyles |

[img] http://cdn1.vanguardngr.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/412x250xfani-Igbo.jpg.pagespeed.ic.IVAwk_Borx.webp[/img] ABUJA- FORMER Director of Publicity, Peoples Democratic Presidential Campaign Organisation, PDPPCO, Chief Femi Fani- Kayode Monday lampooned the Convener of the Coalition of Northern Politicians, Academics, Professionals and Businessmen, Dr. Junaid Mohammed, describing his comments that President Muhammadu Buhari owes Igbos nothing as most most insensitive, cruel and Puerile.
Responding to comments credited to Junaid, Fani- Kayode in a message to Vanguard noted that his statements that If the igbo feel marginalised they should attempt to break away again, was most uncharitable and careless, warning that if there was any attempt to butcher the Ibos or a repeat of what happened in 1966, it would be resisted by not only the Ibos, but by all Nigerians, with attempt to secede, which according to him, would be successful.
According to him, the like of Junaid must learn from history, our mistakes, preach peace and peaceful coexistence, rather that boast and beat our chests for yet another round of war. Fani- Kayode reacting to a statement titled,
” If the igbo feel marginalised they should attempt to break away again”- Dr. Junaid Mohammed, The Punch Newspaper, 17th August 2015, said, “Given the immense suffering that the igbo were subjected to both before, during and after the civil war this is one of most insensitive, cruel and puerile comments that I have heard in recent times. “I daresay that if Junaid Mohammed’s Nigeria ever butchers over 100,000 innocent igbo civilians again, as they did in the north in 1966 just before the civil war, there will indeed be another attempt to secede, but this time it will not only be successful, but they will also take many others with them. “Rather than boast and beat our chests, we must learn from our history and we must never repeat its mistakes.
” Dr. Junaid Mohammed, had in an interview in one of the national dailies( not Vanguard) , dismissed the sentiments shared by a former Governor of Anambra State that the Igbo have not been treated fairly in the governance of Nigeria. Junaid who noted that people of the Igbo nation have enjoyed favourable treatment, said it was wrong to reward the Igbo simply on the basis of the Nigerian Civil War, which lasted between 1967 and 1970. Mohammed had said, “If it is about Buhari making the appointments based on merit, I have no problems with it. I don’t believe Buhari or Nigeria owes any Igbo anything. I don’t care what Ezeife says; if they had seceded, there would have been no Nigeria today. As people who acted outside the interest of Nigeria as a country, to expect compensation is a very odd logic.
“If the Igbo don’t like it, they can attempt secession again. If they do, they must be prepared to live with the consequences. Nobody owes them anything and nobody is out to compensate them for anything.” Source: http://www.vanguardngr.com/2015/08/if-igbos-are-butchered-again-nigeria-will-break-fani-kayode-warns/ |

https://cms.dailytrust.com.ng/cms/gall_content/2015/8/2015_8Slargeimg17_Aug_2015_035330383.jpgRivers State Governor Nyesom Ezenwo Wike yesterday said those planning to truncate the lifespan of his administration would be disgraced by God.
The governor said his administration had through strategic planning confounded those who claimed that road construction cannot take place at the height of the rainy season.
Addressing members of the Lord’s Chosen Renewal Charismatic Ministry in Port Harcourt, Wike said his victory at the polls was ordained by God and made possible by prayers of clerics including pastors of the Lord’s Chosen.
The crusade was attended by the General Overseer of the Ministry, Pastor Lazarus Mouka. “The way the God of the Lord’s Chosen did it on April 11, that is how he will do it again”, he said.
The governor recalled that it was at the Lord’s Chosen Ministry that he made a vow that if the rumour that he was a member of a cult was true, he should not win the governorship election but he went ahead to win the election because the rumour was false.
He directed the immediate commencement of the road to the state headquarters of the church as well as the interlocking of the premises in line with his campaign promise. He said both projects would be completed before September 7. General Overseer of the church, Pastor Lazarus Mouka, prayed to God for a successful tenure for the governor.
