MobilityExpress: They should scrap the Senate, scrap the HOR, scrap the monarchy institutions, scrap the redundant Ministries and merge duplicated agencies like ICPC, EFCC etc. 85% Budget for recurrent expenditure will be saved, that's about over N3 trillion naira. This is the best path to real development, instead of the FG looking for more ways to tax Nigerian citizens to death. Otherwise, this country will keep going in circles and going nowhere!
Also, what are we even doing with 35 Governors? More than half of whom are practically non-performing and are just instruments of mass corruption and stealing. 4 governors is ok, one for each region, North, West, South, East. Commissioners should be scraped too. We just need 1 president, 4 governors, 6 ministers (Energy, Economy, Technology, Security, Agriculture, Education), and 144 LGAs (4 for each state). Then government recurrent expenditure can be less than a billion per year, then the remaining N4 trillion plus that would have gone to waste can be transferred into meaningful development and manufacturing. And watch how Nigeria will become another China within 20 years.
the truth is this government does not know the true meaning of the change mantra they used to get to power.
I support what he said, but it has to cut across all strata of government institutions, including the presidency who has too many advisers on pay roll. Again if this government is insisting and forcing us to eat the locally grown rice which to me is very wrong mainly because the quality of that rice is not up to per with what obtains internationally. If they must force us then they should also drive a made in Nigeria car starting from the presidency to governor's and senators. Innoson jeeps are good enough those in government should lead by example. And stop blabbing. The local rice is absolute rubbish if in doubt pls use it to cook jollof rice and see how bad it turns out. I can bet my top dollar Mr president does not eat the locally produced rice.
Bob thanks in a million languages for the gift, much respect for you. I hope that foolish boy Zlatan ibile will send her a letter of apology for the nonsense video he did on the tacha. Tacha God bless your hustle, pls never give up keep pushing and you surely will get there even become a bigger celeb than bigbrother and Zlatan ( bolor, Maiduguri ibile)

NwekeUG: Igberetv brings you an article by Dele Momodu on the administration of President Buhari. Read below.
Fellow Nigerians, the title of my epistle to you this week is an adaptation of the title of a sitcom which was produced and directed by the legendary Amaka Igwe of blessed memory. No other title better describes and encapsulates the total confusion, chaos and conflagration ongoing in the powerhouse of Aso Rock in Nigeria right now. I swear, it won’t be an exaggeration to say I have never witnessed such rivalry combined with ribaldry, and tomfoolery before.
Let me paint a picture of this ugly scenario as best as I can as a compulsive storyteller. Major General Muhammadu Buhari was Nigeria’s military Head of State from the last day of 1983 to sometime in August 1985. His military rule was hinged on a purported war against indiscipline which seemed to leave certain privileged persons unscathed but ensured that life was more than tough for the usual recalcitrant fellows who were unlucky not to find favour with the government. The administration did not last too long, but it left its indelible mark, for better or for worse, depending on which side of the divide you belonged.
The Babangida coup that guillotined and torpedoed Buhari’s regime wasted no time in hounding Buhari and hauling him into detention. Many would have thought it was the very end for Buhari in the game of politics, but man proposes, and God disposes. Buhari kept a few years in confinement before he was eventually released. And we all thought that any ambition he nursed to return to power was over. Buhari was known to be introverted, a man of few words. He returned home quietly.
The military handed over to a full-fledged civilian administration after the botched “Third Republic” and suddenly soldiers and other military personnel came out of the woodwork in civilian toga to contest elections with their civilian counterparts. It was a mismatch. The military men had more guile, gusto and guts. They also had esprit de corps which they used to their overwhelming advantage. Then suddenly, words reached us that almost from the blues, Buhari was seriously considering coming back from retirement to contest for the post of President and Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces, a real reincarnation. He was instantly dismissed by many Nigerians as embarking on an impossible mission. And this proved to be the case. He contested first in 2003 but lost to another retired General and former Head of State Olusegun Obasanjo. It was difficult to tell if theirs was a relay race and an exchange of baton. But predictably Buhari lost.
In 2007, Buhari contested again, this time against Umaru Musa Yar’Adua. He lost. And cried foul but the judicial umpire ruled otherwise. Buhari did not relent. Indeed, his failures and woes seemed to goad him on. In 2011, he came back to contest against the incumbent, President Goodluck Jonathan. I was part of this particular race as a Presidential candidate myself, but I flunked and was trounced mercilessly. That’s another story for another day, except that I would say that I learnt the lesson that if you are not a member of a mainstream party you are wasting your time contesting the highest office in the land. Your popularity and good works count for nought. Buhari was palpably frustrated because he felt he had a good chance and there were newspaper headlines which claimed he wept and that he had vowed never to contest again.
However, things were soon to change. The 2015 election season came around. Unexpectedly and surprisingly, given the events of the 2011 election and the aftermath of the results, Buhari’s name was being bandied about as a possible Presidential aspirant of an all-inclusive new opposition group. One thing led to another and Buhari was suddenly considered not just as a potential aspirant but a promising candidate that was capable of dismantling the PDP monopoly and dislodging President Goodluck Jonathan from power. In my view, as a minor participant in the events that culminated in sending PDP packing, Buhari was in the right place at the right time. The lines simply fell into place for him. The stars aligned and his number came up. The Nigerian public was simply fed up with Jonathan and the gross ineptitude and unbridled corruption that characterised his PDP government. This was what catapulted Buhari back into reckoning. Let me put it succinctly, the opposition politicians coalesced in their desperation for power and settled for Buhari’s candidacy despite the many misgivings about him based on what was felt to be his inglorious past. There was hardly any politician or critic of the time who had not said unkind words to and about Buhari on tape and on paper.
But their permutations were as selfish followers who seemed too eager to come in from the bitterly cold wilderness of opposition politics. They based their support for Buhari on the following matters:
One, bring Buhari as a Mandela option, more of a ceremonial figure, to help destroy PDP and serve in the interim, probably for only four years. He himself had said at his age he would serve only one term of four years. His supporters found that attractive because they can then ride on his back to power in four years, almost effortlessly. There was obvious concern that the man would become the scourge and Frankenstein that had been unleashed in his first coming, but the lure of power was too much for the power-hungry supporters. It is noteworthy that at this stage in the planning, there was no cabal, or any of those who would form its core, in sight.
Two, they needed to repackage Buhari as a reformed leader and born-again Democrat because many had raised questions about his dictatorial past. The packagers even toyed with dropping his biggest achievement on earth, the title of Major General, out of fear of a possible backlash about his past. They reassured themselves that Buhari was not really the one in charge of affairs in his first outing as a military Head of State and that his fame or notoriety for delegation of authority would mean that he could be checkmated. So, the theory was that his Vice President, this time again, will do the bulk of the work. This was the reason the job of Vice President, which used to be that of a glorified errand boy, suddenly became popular and competitive and everyone wanted it. Still no one took the invisible cabal into consideration.
Three, the issue of religion was a controversial one hanging around Buhari’s neck like an albatross because of the perception that he’s an Islamic fundamentalist. It was that label that ultimately nullified Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s chances of becoming running mate to Buhari. Buhari himself was too scared of a Muslim/Muslim ticket as this would have provided ammunition for his enemies. Again, it was this desperation not to be tagged a religious bigot that led to picking Pastor Tunde Bakare as Vice Presidential candidate in 2011 and Pastor Yemi Osinbajo in 2015. The unseen cabal supported the choices. No problem.
Four, Buhari’s personal assets were his ascetic and frugal comportment, his supposed incorruptibility, and very strict ability to punish crime. Even his ardent critics would readily agree and admit that Buhari had been well packaged and marketed as the last saint standing in Nigeria. Till this day, Brand Buhari, is yet to be rubbished despite the ghostly rumours of a shadowy past.
Five, the insecurity in the land was another major consideration. Who else but Buhari can exterminate the nuisance terrorists and terrorism that had been constituted and seemingly consecrated in Nigeria? It was as if Buhari possessed some talismanic power to disperse Boko Haram and its likes from the forests of a thousand daemons.
To achieve all these, it was absolutely necessary to assemble the good and the bad into one huge party. The desperation to win at all cost necessitated the move to proliferate the new mega party with saints and sinners. Buhari was no longer under any illusion about the mega costs and expense of political campaigns and how the bad guys must fund it. The hidden cabal had no objection to the association of strange bedfellows. All PDP renegades were welcome. Large sums of donations and private jets came handy. Win, we must.
I’m sure, you can see I love history and telling stories by moonlight. I’m leading you somewhere, indeed to a nice crescendo, because we must never forget how we got here. We all worked in unison, there was no other way to arrive at our destination. The elections came and the coalition forces won spectacularly! The world rejoiced. Unfortunately, that was the beginning of total confusion. Major participants came forward with their plates and cutlery thinking they were partners in progress, entitled to large chunks of the fat meat they had all helped to roast. But not a few of them were soon told to calm down. Yes, there was a new Sherriff in town, but he had come complete with a hitherto unknown team which was not prepared to share the spoils with all comers. So, trouble started. Too much time was wasted in getting a simple, uninspiring cabinet together. All we had and heard were cacophonous excuses and free for all punches from every direction as to why a government in which there was invested great hope and expectation was showing crassness, ineptitude and cluelessness. Even the wife of the President, Lady Aisha Buhari, soon cried out. She became the leading critic of a government of which her husband is the head and she fingered a powerful cabal as the cause of our woes.
Anyway. The first term of four years soon evaporated as we all knew it would. Time always flies. The President sought a second term and got it, by fire and by force. A substantial credit must go to the Vice President, Professor Yemi Osinbajo who staked everything to promote his boss and project his party. He nearly worked himself to the point of death. Frankly speaking, his reputation suffered a collateral damage in the process of struggling to defend the indefensible. Unsuspecting, and probably suffering from political naivety, he went overboard and stepped on so many toes. Also unknown to him, the battle for 2023 had already started in earnest well before the ink had dried on the paper that the election results had been written upon. Osinbajo would soon be the fall guy and whipping boy of a group of desperate politicians intent on cornering the Nigerian conglomerate and clasping it to their bosom forever.
According to one analysis, the North is not interested in rotating any Presidential position. They want to hold on fastidiously and ceaselessly to power. Other regions can fight themselves for the remaining slots. The South believes that the principle of rotation which has unwittingly been foisted on the nation means that it is their turn. Thus, two major groups have already shown subliminal signs of wanting to contest, one in the North and one in the South, Nasir El Rufai and Bola Ahmed Tinubu, respectively. Both groups are suspicious of what they consider surreptitious and clandestine moves by friends of the Vice President Yemi Osinbajo to spring a surprise at the most auspicious time. He has therefore become their number one target. Since he is fair game, he is being used for target practice, but the anointed man of God knows that all power lies with God and that no evil can befall those that God has chosen. He refuses to play their game nut simply continues to smile. Indeed, that smile seems like a playful knowing smile. Time will tell.
The cabal is not left out of the shenanigans. Although El Rufai is supposedly a putative member of the larger group, the innermost core of the cabal seems to have some interest in Baba Gana Kingibe, at least for now. That is if they are not hiding a darker horse in a cave and using Baba Gana as a red herring, in typical fashion of the underhand and sinister way they have been playing their politics. There are other ambitious Governors and former Governors who are interested but perching or lying low in the grass like rattlesnakes. For now, they all have a common enemy they must crush urgently, Yemi Osinbajo. The reason is simple. The longer he stays with Buhari, the more powerful and visible he becomes. His access to state apparatus and appurtenances of office will be a major advantage to his cause and a debilitating weapon against their interests. So, they have started the elimination process. Take out Osinbajo and let’s have a level playing field is what they all seem to be agreed upon. They are dancing ‘kpalongo’ to their own music, but it is Osinbajo who seems to be dictating the tune for now, much to their chagrin.
No one knows where Buhari belongs in all these groups. Will he allow them to terminally damage his Vice President and present him a weak replacement? Will he in good conscience believe the campaigns of calumny and hate and abandon a man who gave his government some credibility? Not that it really matters who becomes their candidate ultimately but will their ever be an end to this cycle of chicanery? The world is watching and waiting to see the climax of this war, with bated breath…
For now, it is all noise and fury, a bit like some Fuji music!

References: The Presidency has said the online hysteria over President Muhammadu Buhari’s speech at the 74th Session of the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA74) is unnecessary.
The Nigerian President, asked during an interactive session at the New York event to talk about his plans for the future of Nigeria’s young population, responded to the question with a prepared speech about Climate Change.
Explaining the context of the seemingly incongruous speech, the Presidency, in a statement signed by the President’s Media Office, said that Buhari had been participating alongside other world leaders in the United Nations Climate Action Summit.
The statement reads:
“On Monday September 23, 2019, President Muhammadu Buhari participated alongside other world leaders at the United Nations Climate Action Summit 2019.
“Since then, we have seen conversations on Twitter doing what Twitter allows many people to spend a lot of their time on: getting things horribly wrong and/or focusing on the wrong things, while completely missing the real/meaningful/actual message.
“And so, this is a backgrounder/explainer, focusing on Nigeria’s commitment to climate action, under the Buhari Administration.
“The Climate Action Summit was convened by UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres, to provide an opportunity for world leaders to, ‘come to New York on 23 September with concrete, realistic plans to enhance their nationally determined contributions by 2020, in line with reducing greenhouse gas emissions by 45 per cent over the next decade, and to net zero emissions by 2050.’
“The theme of President Buhari’s panel was, ‘Towards a Resilient Future’ — with the rider: ‘Announcement of plans to mainstream climate risk in decision making’.
“So, note that the goal of the panel was to elicit ‘announcements’ from the panelists on behalf of their respective countries: Fiji, Nigeria, Netherlands, the Bank of England, etc. In other words, panelists were billed to deliver remarks announcing their country/organisation plans to build a resilient, climate-sensitive future.
“To address the theme of the event, President Buhari chose to deliver prepared remarks.
“And the moderator’s question, was, in keeping with the theme: ‘President Buhari, Nigeria has a very young population; perhaps you might highlight what a pathway for a resilient future looks like?’
“The President did exactly that, in his prepared remarks, over the next few minutes, highlighting what a ‘resilient future’ will look like in Nigeria — by focusing on the administration’s policies (the ones already being implemented, like the Green Bonds, and the ones set for implementation, like the new tree-planting campaign, and the energy mix target).
“His prepared remarks were wholly in alignment with the theme of the Panel event, and the question he was asked.
“Keep in mind that as panels often work, the moderator’s question was meant to invite/usher him to take the stage, and share his remarks. As a panelist it was up to him to choose to respond ex tempore, or to go the ‘prepared remarks way.’
“He chose the prepared remarks way. And most importantly, he touched on the issues re: mainstreaming climate action for the future and for the young people of Nigeria.
“The only story here, for all serious minded people, is what he said, and what it means for the future and for the young people of Nigeria. His remarks read in parts:
“’I share the sentiment expressed by the Secretary-General that the world is on the verge of climate catastrophe. Undeniably, Climate Change is a human-induced phenomenon.
“’In the water sector, Nigeria will issue a Green Bond for irrigation and construct multi-purpose dams for power, irrigation and water supply. We will strengthen solid and liquid waste management systems to attract more private sector investors.
“’We will mobilize Nigerian youths towards planting 25 million trees to enhance Nigeria’s carbon sink.
“’Specifically, Nigeria is progressively working to realize 30 percent energy efficiency and renewable energy mix by 2030.
“’Furthermore, the Federal Government has commenced the implementation of the Hydrocarbon Pollution Remediation Programme in Ogoniland, to recover the carbon sink potential of the mangrove ecosystem of the one thousand square kilometers (1,000 KM2) polluted site in the affected area.
“’Finally, permit me to add that the forty million citizens in the Lake Chad area expect this Summit to take into consideration their concerns. They anticipate that the outcomes of this meeting would include solutions to address the Climate Change impact in the Lake Chad area.'”
“We believe that the important things for young people of Nigeria to do now should be around holding the government to account on these ‘announcement’ and promises, and ensuring they are fulfilled and delivered in a timely manner.
“One of the most exciting should be the tree-planting campaign. Ethiopia recently set a world record on that account — perhaps Nigeria’s young people might even be able to pressure the Government into scaling up the ambitions of our own planned tree-planting campaign.
001NGN: A tall and beautiful lady Hawking Zobo has been claimed by both Nigerian and Ghanaian facebook users , Here is the exact post from the original source of this photo: The Nigerian post reads
An undergraduate from the University of Benin named Lydia was recently caught on camera hawking ZOBO drink at the popular New Benin Market at Edo State, Nigeria. From a reliable source, it was gathered that her Mom also hawks to make ends meet.
It's sad to say that, many beautiful girls of her age who find themselves in the same condition, would have preferred to sell out their bodies for money, rather than doing something legitimate.
Kudos to every girl out there carrying out LEGIT HUSTLE, and not those who depend on their PRIVATE PARTS to feed! LYDIA, blessed are you amongst all women!
A Ghanian also posted almost same story
A University of Ghana student named Lydia Hudu caught on camera hawking Soboolo drink at Makola market. Reliable source said her mom hawks Soboolo to pay her and her siblings school bills. This is one brave girl who is not ashamed of her hustle. How many girls can do this in our society. As long as it is legal and puts food on your table, Be proud of your hustle.
By the way, See more photos of the hardworking damsel
I hv taken a good look at the surrounding of that market, that is certainly Benin nd not the makola market in Ghana. The Ghana market has no street demarcation at all. I lived close to makola market in tudu for 7 years so I should know it when I see it.
9jaBlogger: Lagos State APC Spokesman, Joe Igbokwe, has been appointed as Special Adviser to Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu on Drainage and Water Resources, Igbere TV reports.
Governor Sanwo-Olu had nominated Mr Igbokwe as Commissioner in the list sent to the Lagos State House of Assembly, last week.
Igbere TV reports that the Assembly had confirmed 35 out of the 38 nominees, with Igbokwe among those confirmed as Commissioner designate.
Many had expected that the Governor would announce Igbokwe as Commissioner during today's swearing in at the Alausa Government House, Ikeja, Lagos.
But shockingly, the APC Spokesman was unveiled as Special Adviser, as against the earlier announced Commissioner designate.
Joe Igbokwe had sparked controversy online over his “I am not Igbo...” comment during the screening exercise before the Lagos State House of Assembly.
The controversial APC Spokesman had come under fire, recently, over a mockery comment on popular Lagos motorbike hailing service, GoKada.
Igbokwe had mocked GoKada operators for shutting down operations in Lagos to rebrand and restrategize.
“Instead of partnering with govt on BRT, you invested “5.3 million dollars” in Okada business and expect that Lagos state will allow you jeopardise its muliti-billion naira mass transit investments.
“Call it ‘bike-hailing start up’ or whatever, okada na okada… it is not sustainable in a city of high density population Lagos”, Igbokwe had said.
The comment, however, did not go down well with many Nigerians lambasting Igbokwe and reporting him to Governor Sanwo-Olu.
Many Nigerians have reacted to the latest development, with many mocking the APC Spokesman for being “dumped” by the government despite his “overzealousness” and “eye-service”.
my gov sanwo olu God bless you, sir for helping throw that poo of a man into the gutter where he rightly belongs, if you had made the mistake of putting him in a better position he will be snitching on you, he is a man without integrity he blabs too much like a drunken master. You even try giving him that position if I was you I will make him be in charge of all the public toilets in Lagos. Pls don't ever ever trust the fool.
Handsomecole: The Chief Whip of the Senate, Orji Uzor Kalu, has cautioned the northern political elite against canvassing an end to rotational presidency as from 2023.
Kalu, a two-term governor of Abia State, stated this in an interview with our correspondent in Abuja following the call by the Governor of Kaduna State, Nasir el-Rufai, for an end to power shift in the country.
He maintained that nobody should canvass an end to power shift until the South-East and the North-East geopolitical zones had produced the President of Nigeria.
The principal officer of the senate noted that the agreement at the end of the 1978 national conference was that all the major ethnic groups in Nigeria must produce the President on a rotational basis.
He said, “Calling for an end to the zoning arrangement now will not bring peace to Nigeria. We have to complete the zoning system. That was the agreement at the earlier constitutional conference. All the major ethnic groups must produce the President before we would all agree that zoning has ended.
“Canvassing the abolition of rotational presidency at this point is not in the interest of the country. It will not bring about unity. Anybody that is saying that the zoning arrangement for the Presidency of Nigeria should be abolished now is trying to cause civil and constitutional crisis which is not good for the society.
“We should manage the crises at hand carefully in this country without causing further havoc. Currently, the unity of the country is under threat with the insecurity of lives and property across Nigeria.”
Kalu warned against causing disunity among Nigerians but rather, everyone must work together to bring the nation back to a stable and peaceful state.
“Governor el-Rufai should know that the South-East and the North-East must produce the President before his call for the abolition of rotational presidency could be considered and adopted.
“Once the two zones have produced the President of Nigeria, then the position could be free for all. We have started the current zoning arrangement and we can’t change the rules in the middle of the game,” he said.
if we accept the nonsense that Hell rufai is pushing we would shoot ourselves in the foot. The guy is playing on the fact that since 2015 the north has shown it has the largest voting population their voting strength is far more than the entire South and he wants to use that leverage to keep power in the hands of the north perpetually. Otherwise he will keep sponsoring terror In Nigeria to as we can see his terror fulaniherds men trying to show us that they hv what it takes to take the entire country both politically and by the use of arms
wow. This is really bad. This is one of those persons who give Nigeria a bad name. Anyway am into lubricant production and I need 3m loan to be another dangote.

arinze198: A 44-year old married man, Olamide Joseph, has landed in trouble after he allegedly took a 14-year old girl into a container by the roadside in Lagos, engaged her in a sex romp and was eventually caught.
P.M.EXPRESS reports that the incident happened at Taiwo Estate, Iponri area of Lagos, where they reside.
The 14-year old victim alleged that the suspect, Joseph, confused her with words of mouth, took her inside the container and engaged her in sex romp. However, while the romp was going on late in the evening, the Police patrol team who saw them there, arrested him and took him to the station. He was later transferred to the Gender Section of the Police Command for further investigation; there the Police found him culpable and charged before the Ogba Magistrates Court for defilement which attracts several years imprisonment.
The Court did not take his plea after the prosecutor, Christopher John, asked the Court to refer the matter to the DPP for advice because the case involved a minor.
this is wrong. The man's crime if I must say would only be that he did it in public that's all. I won't call this a rape case he spoke to the girl she accepted and gave herself to him willingly. How is that a rape case? Besides she was not reported to hv bleed from the act which shows she has been doing it before. So therefore there is no crime here except for the public exposure. The man should hire me as a lawyer I will get him free in just under an hour at any court. Besides the defination of minor in this country is not clear as ppl from the north are known to marry girls at age 10. so what's the fuss here
kidap: A political activist and former Deputy National Publicity Secretary of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Comrade Timi Frank, has called on Nigerians, particularly those who worked against the re-election and sabotaged the former President Goodluck Jonathan to publicly tender an apology if the country must move forward.
Frank said unless Nigerians prefer to continue in pretence, the era of former President Jonathan managed well the challenge of insecurity compared to what the country has now.
In a statement Timi Frank released to newsmen in Abuja on Saturday, called on religious leaders, traditional rulers and all Nigerians who directly or indirectly worked against Jonathan's government to ask for forgiveness before it is too late.
Frank acknowledged that there were things Jonathan's government should have done better but in all Nigerians made a wrong choice of electing the current administration.
"I call on Nigerians that we should beg former President Goodluck Jonathan for wrongly voted him out and sabotaged his government. I must confess that as an APC figure in 2015, we fabricated many lies against Jonathan, though I have publicly apologised to him but other Nigerians, especially the pastors, Imams, traditional rulers and other opinion leaders should beg for forgiveness too.
"It is obvious now that insecurity in our Nation has gone out of hand. The challenge was limited to a zone under Goodluck Jonathan but presently no state, including General Buhari's home state is secured.
"Under Jonathan, Fulani herdsmen were using stick but they now carry AK 47. Under Jonathan, lives of Nigerians were more important despite the challenges but under Buhari, cows are more important than lives.
"There was democracy and rule of law under Jonathan but its now rule of force and impunity. Under Jonathan, National Assembly were active and working but its now a rubber stamp.
"Under Jonathan, Nigerians abroad were relocating back home but under Buhari Nigerians are running away. Under Jonathan Nigerians are respected all over the world but that has since gone under Buhari.
"Under Jonathan Nigerians were crying in tears but now Nigerians are crying in blood
"Under Jonathan, there was freedom of speech but that has long gone under the APC administration.
"Under Jonathan, poverty, hunger and unemployment were not as bad as it is today. Under Jonathan Nigeria was a unitedunited Nation but sentiments have taken over now.
"As it is now, all the institutions of government that were working well under Jonathan have all been blackmailed and politicised.
"So, I call on others who betrayed Jonathan to come out publicly and apologise to him. I also use this opportunity to appeal to former President Jonathan to forgive Nigerians and bless the Nation against the evils that have pervaded the land."
Frank said Nigerians should ask the APC administration what happened to the $1 Billion ECA money removed to fight insecurity in Nigeria.
He called on Nigerians to support a peaceful revolution to take back Nigeria to the good old days from the hands "evil men in power."

Damyonline: A mother left her baby crying and gasping for air in a locked car in computer village, Ikeja, Lagos state to get something, only to be rescued by sympathizers.
On Friday, a baby was rescued by sympathizers in computer village after they waited for over 30 mins for the mother who locked up the child already crying and gasping for air in the car to come back.
According to reports by Ọmọ́túndé Olúfúnké, a twitter user, the baby who is less than 2 year old was strapped in a baby carrier and locked inside a Red Matrix LND by the road side in Computer Village, Ikeja. The baby who was crying and gasping for breath got the attention of sympathisers who waited for over 30 minutes for the baby's mother to return.
After waiting and the mother didn't get back in time, they swung into action and forcefully opened the door of the car to save the baby's life.

Priscy01: Serial entrepreneur, Tony Elumelu, has joined in the debate over which tasted better between the Nigerian recipe of jollof rice and that of Senegal.
Mr Elumelu had lunch with President Macky Sall of Senegal on Thursday.
He said in a post on Instagram that he tasted the famous Senegalese jollof but would not tell which tasted better.
“I went all the way to #Senegal had lunch with President @macky_sall at the #palaisdelarepublique so you know I had to try the famous #SenegaleseJollof. Don’t ask which one is better lol #TOEWay #jollofwars,” Elumelu said.
Senegalese pop star, Akon, was recently in Lagos for a Google-sponsored event where he added his voice to the debate, stressing that the jollof recipe of his country tasted better than Nigeria’s.
Deputy Governor of Lagos, Obafemi Hamzat, defended the Nigerian recipe at the event.
jollof rice is native to Senegal, the Togolese who worked there as house helps copied it and brought it to Nigerian households when they also moved here as house helps. The yorubas engaged them as house helps and learnt how to cook it from the Togolese. The igbos where not exposed to it because they did not hv need for Togolese house helps. If you ask me the igbos are worst at cooking jollof rice. The yorubas are better at it because they learnt well from the Togolese.

THE REVOLUTION THEY REFUSED TO DO WHEN IT WAS NEEDED MOST.
✔ When militants were busy bombing and destroying oil installations and then polluting the entire Niger Delta environment between the year 1997 to 2016, where was your revolution?
✔ When the same militants began kidnapping foreign investors in the year 2000 and later resorted to kidnapping Nigerian citizens for ransom after the foreigners ran away, where was your revolution?
✔ When opposition politicians were being specifically targeted for assassination between the year 2002 to 2014, where was your revolution?
✔ When they were busy buying private jets and building expensive private universities and gigantic personal libraries with funds stolen from us, where was your revolution?
✔ When they sold NEPA/PHCN to themselves in 2013 and continued to rip us off our monies without giving us electricity, you didn't think of revolution!
✔ When just one box was found containing 14 billion naira worth of jewellery for a thieving female minister recently, you didn't think of revolution when the theft and squandermania was going on between 2010 to 2015!
✔ When they killed NITEL and our numerous textile factories since 2001, your revolution was missing!
✔ When they killed Nigeria Airways without even paying off the workers, your revolution mind was where?
✔ When airplanes were falling down almost every month in Nigeria, killing hundreds of people at each fall, and the only explanation Femi Fani-Kayode who was the minister of aviation at that time gave was that it was caused by cultists in government, where was your revolution to remove the cultists out of power?
✔ When they sank billions of dollars of public funds in NEPA/PHCN and gave you darkness even before they sold it off to themselves, where was your revolution?
✔ When they stole your monies and built palatable edifices for their families, concubines, whores or girlfriends, where was your revolution?
✔ When they were selling crude oil at $140 per barrel and yet couldn't pay workers for upwards of 14 months, where was your revolution?
✔ When our health institutions went comatose, and doctors, nurses and other medical workers were always on strike, where was your revolution?
✔ When ASUU strikes lasted up to 9 months nonstop to over 14 months sometimes, there was no revolution from you! Why?
✔ When Nigeria Airways staff were dying due to nonpayment of their benefits for over 20 years, where was your revolution?
✔ When the 2nd Niger Bridge was commissioned on mere paper twice but which tens of billions of naira was looted and squandered in its name, where was your revolution?
✔ When our railways were left dead and rusty, and our roads across the country were abandoned such that they became huge craters and hundreds of billions of naira were being looted annually in the name of building new ones, where was your revolution?
✔ When 20 people alone are owing me and you about 5 trillion naira public money in AMCON, where was your revolution?
✔ When a former First Lady's total amount forfeited to government can be divided amongst 774 local governments for 220 million naira each, where was your revolution?
✔ When 23 people, under the instruction of President Jonathan, looted and shared $2.1 billion funds meant for fighting Boko Haram, resulting in tens of thousands of deaths, where was your revolution?
✔ When over 20 people died during the Nigeria Immigration Service jobs scam in 2014, where was your revolution?
✔ When stealing was not corruption, and was effectively legalised to the point that it was a crime to be honest in any office in Nigeria between 1999 and 2015, where was your revolution?
✔ When poverty reached an all-time high of 112 million people in 2012 and 130 million in 2013 according to World Bank data, where was your revolution? It is when the figure has reduced to 88 million people in 2018, according to the same World Bank, that you are talking of revolution?
✔ Between 2010 and early 2015, we were being bombed and killed in hundreds and even thousands almost daily in Abuja, Kaduna, Kano, Zaria, Jos, Bauchi, Azare, Misau, Gombe, Maiduguri, Damaturu, Potiskum, Yola, Mubi, Gwoza, Bama, Buni-Yadi, Kala Balge, and many other towns and communities in northern Nigeria! Where was your revolution at that time?
Someone is diligently cleaning all of that mess now, and you are now shouting REVOLUTION on behalf of the very thieves and plunderers who created and sustained all of that mess for 16 solid years? Who the hell do you think you are to think we will let you railroad us back to the rape and plunder of our beloved country in the name of a wacky revolution?
I just wanna make some common sense!
