#IRememberPDP In 2014, the fear of Boko Haram bombing of churches was palpable in Lagos. My church AVMCC started having a Police Armoured Tank stationed in front of the Church. That reminder of insecurity is no more today.

If you want your money safe in the house, keep it with the suspected thief to keep for you. The people creating the imaginary tension through propaganda are in government now.

This article is misleading. The court process attached is talking about the plan of INEC to postpone election in some areas because of malfunctioned card readers. Cant find any clause in the process talking about foreigners participation. INEC is the only defendant in the suit as attached. Where is the attached news coming from? Hope it is not what I am thinking? Is it a plan to divert attention from the real issues in court?

It is now a full blown dictatorship.

Àjẹ́ ké lánàá, ọmọ kú léni,.... every reasonable person knows that it is the work of APC.

PMB can do anything to retain power. He is very selfish and self-centered. If shutting down the internet will benefit him, he will care less. Does he even browse the net?

Buhari’s Government of No Substance and Propaganda

In trying to verify the accuracy of the odd appointment letter I posted here yesterday, I discovered that President Buhari actually has 9, not 6, media aides, all of whom also have a retinue of personal aides.

The presidential media aides are Femi Adesina (Special Adviser, Media & Publicity); Garba Shehu (Senior Special Assistant, Media & Publicity); Tolu Ogunlesi (Special Assistant, Digital & New Media); Lauretta Onochie (Personal Assistant, Social Media); Bashir Ahmad (Personal Assistant, New media); Sha’aban Sharada (Personal Assistant, Broadcast Media); Naziru Muhammed (Personal Assistant, TV Documentary); Sunday Aghaeze (Personal Assistant, Photography); and Bayo Omoboriowo (Personal Assistant/ President’s Photographer).

In addition, the president has about 40 paid journalists, bloggers, media analysts, commentators (whose names I have but will leave out for now), working under the Buhari Media Centre (BMC) in Utako, Abuja. The BMC is a well-furnished one-storey building with expansive premises. It has security guards, clerks, and cashiers. The team members are paid a monthly allowance of between N200,000 and N250,000.

They are mandated to react to all media contents critical of the president, write favorable news items for the president, and attack/demonize/smear people critical of the president. They also work with government agencies such as the EFCC to push narratives to deflect attention from the ineptitude of the government.
They work behind the scenes and use pen names in extended articles, and pseudonyms on social media. Almost all the members of the APC Presidential Campaign Media Directorate operate from the BMC, with the exception of those with appointments. And this excludes Lai Mohammad’s well-oiled lie squad.

When a government takes propaganda and mind-management this seriously, you know it’s not ready to change. Good deeds are their own PR. It is when people determine that they don’t want to do good deeds that they resort to mindless propaganda. If only they invested and expended as much energy in managing the economy as they do in propaganda, we won’t be where we are. I have more, but I will stop here for now. By the way, that appointment letter is authentic.

Atiku, Lagos

THIS GUY HAS TRULY LOST HIS SENSES

Finally, Tinubu ti take over.

Remove about 1000 police deployed, another about 1000 soldiers, another 500 for DSS personnel, another 1000 for other staff and the press. How many people remain?

Even in Lagos here, Sanwoolu moves people from one local government to another local government he is campaigning.

See the future governor of Lagos

Watch the same people that okay it for Tanko condemn it for Atiku. APC and hypocrisy are 50/50.

I remember Gov Yakhowa of Kaduna, Governor Suntai of Taraba, Azazi and that minister from Kogi. Guess what? They are all Christians.

Is the guy practicing christislamaherb? Well ọna kan o w'ojà.

Has anyone observed that the Northern and some Yoruba Muslims will support everything Buhari either good or bad while Southerners and Yoruba Christians will oppose and criticize him too.

The truth is that, the country is divided into two already, we now look at issues from religious and Tribal eyes.

BabaO2:
You never objected Jonathan's action as an impartial nationalist when he was giving every appointment to SE and SS only, that actually caused imbalance in federal government appointments that the present federal government is correcting.

Show me the list of Jonathan's appointments please. I don't like hearsay.

I am beginning to like this man. Inclusive leadership. This is what we ask PMB to do that his supporters named us Wailers.

Is that all?

Unfortunately, I read this man's book in the university. Imagine how he is dancing around the question.

It is unfortunate, they have not said anything. Simply put, the president does not have the power to suspend the CJN.

MediaLife:
To suspend the CJN over allegations of misconduct? Buhari has the right...... But not to impeach

He doesn't have the power. CJN does not report to the president. He is the head of an arm of the government. He needs 2/3 of the senate to suspend him on the recommendation of NJC.

COUP AGAINST THE NIGERIAN JUDICIARY AND SUSPENSION OF THE NIGERIAN CONSTITUTION

1. The news media has been awash this evening with the news of the purported suspension of the Chief Justice of Nigeria, Honorable Mr. Justice Walter S C Onnoghen, GCON by President Muhammadu Buhari, GCFR and the swearing in of Hon Justice Ibrahim Tanko Mohammed as the acting Chief Justice of Nigeria. We are told that this was pursuant to an Ex-Parte Order that was issued by the Code of Conduct Tribunal on Wednesday, 23 January 2019.

2. The Nigerian Bar Association unequivocally rejects and condemns this attempted coup against the Nigerian Judiciary and evident suspension of the Nigerian Constitution by the Executive arm of the Federal Government. The action of the Executive portends a slide into anarchy and complete deconstruction of the Rule of Law and due process. It amounts to an absolute breach of the Constitution and the usurpation of the powers of the Senate and the National Judicial Council.

3. It is unfortunate that the Executive Branch of Government purports to suspend the CJN on the basis of an alleged ex-parte order of the Code of Conduct Tribunal – the same Tribunal that, to the knowledge of the Executive, had, only the previous day, Tuesday, 22 January 2019 adjourned its proceedings to Monday, 28 January 2019 and has before it a Motion on Notice that is yet to be argued, seeking the same reliefs as were contained in the purported ex-parte application, to wit, the suspension of the CJN, amongst others.

4. We call on the Federal Government to avert the looming constitutional crisis precipitated by its ill-advised action. In particular, the Nigerian Bar Association demands the reversal of the purported suspension of Honorable Mr. Justice Walter S C Onnoghen, GCON. We also call on the National Assembly to assert its constitutional authority and powers and prevent this slide into chaos and erosion of the Rule of Law.

Paul Usoro, SAN President

Tareq1105:
The CJN should have done the needful to save the image of the judiciary.

This is someone who has admitted to the charges claiming he forgot.

Tell me, where were you when Jonathan removed Justice Salami, former President of the Court of Appeal?

May be you were young then Salami was removed on the recommendation of NJC even at that I was one of the lawyers that protested by matching from Ikeja High Court to Alausa fully robed.

Those hailing this nonsense should remember that it will get to them soon. This is just the beginning.

Smart move to shift focus away from the illegal removal of CJN.

Samunique:
I think removing all APCs candidates from the ballot is also another plot by the INEC to seek an occasion for the postponement of the election in Rivers, on the basis that they will need time to print new ballot papers, should APC get a favorable judgement in the supreme court.

If not so, why the rush to remove APCs candidates from the ballot when the case is still the court ?

At this point PDP need not rejoice bcs this evil party APC is capable of doing anything.

No more pre election cases at the Supreme Court again.

NgeneUkwenu:
The illiterates don't even know, INEC never called any witness In EDO, KOGI, Anambra, Ekiti Election tribunals etc as they insisted it was a waste of tribunals time. And you know what? They won all.

If they did not call any witness as alleged by you, how did it tendered the 200 documents? You need to put a witness in the witness box to tender any document.

kaypompee:
Hello..pls how did you get the yoruba intonation marks into the sentence ? Sorry for the odd question, I'm a programmer and I need it for something I'm developing.

Download SwiftKey keyboard from playstore and add any local language of your choice like Hausa, Igbo, Yoruba etc. Hope this helps.

Is this a prophecy or political analysis?
