Behold over 500 Youths Engaged in the Anambra State's POS-IGR Project that will employ about 10,000 persons when fully implemented.

Gov Obiano just arrived Dr Alex Ekwueme Square to launch Banks' Use of Point of Sale (POS) for Internally Generated Revenue Collection in the State.

This project will not only ensure decency in revenue drives but will also tighten all leakages and facilitate Obiano's target of hitting a minimum of N2.2bn Monthly without increasing taxes.

WHY ACCUSE ME OF WHAT I KNOW NOTHING ABOUT...?? - Ohamadike opens up on controversial issues

Former Governor Peter Obi is not my best friend, he is my brother - Chief Sir Victor Umeh OFR, Ohamadike Ndigbo n'ile

Speaking to the members of the press, Ohamadike recounted his experience with the former governor of Anambra state noting that he was the brain box behind his successes. "I protected him as a brother but at last, he started fighting me".

Ohamadike also stated that he insisted on Local Government councils elections but the former governor later went against the December 4th 2009 agreement.. He recounted how Governor Peter Obi sent some people (including the then commissioner for work) to his Enugu home to inform him he would not conduct Local Government elections rather he would appoint Transition Chairmen.

"I didn't path way with Peter Obi rather he turned against me because I insisted on Local Government councils elections " he added.

Ohamadike also said "I fought very hard for Peter Obi's victories from the pooling units to the post election matters (including court cases)"

" When Obi was having issues of tenure duration, I was the one that pressured that Peter Obi's tenure would end on 26th May 2010, anyone can look it up on Sun Newspaper" - Ohamadike

Ohamadike also stated how he convinced Ezeigbo Gburugburu, Dim Chukwuemeka Odimegwu Ojukwu to endorse former Governor Peter Obi for his second tenure solely for the interest of the party and for Ndi Anambra.

He revealed that even after Governor Peter Obi left office, they had a meeting in which they resolved that Peter would become the Leader and Chairman Board of Trustee but he rather left the party before the National Convention because he was hoping on national appointment from the former President.

"It was partly in appreciation for what I did for Peter Obi that led the Agulu community to conferred me with the title of Ohamadike Agulu which I adopted as next after my name. But it is unfortunate that the same Peter Obi has turned around to insight the people against me... He also sponsored some court cases against me and even left me at a point and adopted Maxi Okwu against my position as the National Chairman of the party" - Ohamadike

He further stated that even in the face of the tribulations, the people of Agulu never abandoned him, stressing that he is always at home whenever he is in Agulu. " It is clear that Agulu people love me so much, that is why they now regret what happened during last election. I believe that the mammoth crowd that honored me in Agulu today are sincerely supporting me because they have seen that I am innocent of all they were told against me"

Talking about his relationship with the current governor of Anambra state compared to that of the former governor, Ohamadike stressed that he receives a very high support from the current administration than the past.

"Even as the National Chairman of his party, the former Governor Peter Obi barely recognized me as one but Akpokuodike Global, Chief Dr Willie Maduaburochukwu Obiano the current Governor of Anambra state is very proud of me and i believe so much in him and his administration taking Anambra state to a greater height than the past " he added

ADVISE TO PETER OBI
I know that Peter Obi is not a happy man presently. He acts like someone who does not have Christ in his life. I advise him to accept Christ in his life so that he can be able to make the right decisions. He lives a fake life and that is not good enough for him... Let him take some times and retrace his actions so he can see where he made mistakes in his career" he concluded

A cross section of Physically Challenged Persons of Ibesikpo Asutan extraction defied the odds of living with disability and mobilized themselves to pay a solidarity visit to the Royalgate House, residence of the immediate past Honorable Speaker of the Akwa Ibom State House of Assembly, Rt. Hon. (Elder) Aniekan Uko.
The Physically Challenged Persons were ably led by Mr. Ime Benson who is the Personal Assistant on Physically Challenged Persons to the immediate past Speaker of the Akwa Ibom House of Assembly, Rt. Hon. Aniekan Uko.
They were all beamed with smiles and excitement when Rt. Hon. Aniekan Uko came out to receive them and ushered them to sit comfortably and have a sense of belonging.
In their separate speeches, the Physically Challenged Persons spoke in glowing terms of the visible Harvest of Effective Representation from the Lawmaker. They specifically made mention of the goodwill of Rt. Hon. Aniekan Uko in appointing one of them as his Personal Assistant, which inversely was a rallying point to all the Physically Challenged Persons in the area.
They went further to acknowledge his magnanimity of doling out wheel chairs, Hair dressing Equipments, crutches , financial largess etc. and they specifically appreciated the wife of the lawmaker, Evangelist (Mrs.) Ememobong Aniekan Uko for personally including one them of them, who is a trained hairdresser in her empowerment scheme, by giving her a complete set of a Hair dryer and its equipments.
They also made an appeal to the lawmaker to continually extend his goodwill to those of them without wheelchairs, crutches, financial largess etc.. They were all 'armed' with their Permanent Voters Card(PVC) and they flaunted it with the vow of casting their individual votes to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
In his response, the emotionally ladened Rt. Hon. Aniekan Uko was surprised by the show of love from the Physically Challenged Persons who took the pains of mobilizing themselves to pay a visit to him. "I thank the Almighty God for keeping all of us alive....I charge you all, in every situation, give thanks to God", he said.
He promised that, those Physically Challenged Persons who 'crawled' into his compound will be blessed with the gift of wheelchairs. And also assured them that his greater service is for humanity and fellow feeling.
He urged them to continually support the government of Governor Udom Emmanuel and PDP. And advised them to go out to their polling unit on March 12th, 2016 to vote for PDP in the forth coming State Constituency rerun in the area.

Commonsense without sense is Nonsense. - Vivian Gist

The hardest working governor, His Excellency, Engr. David Nweze Umahi, the governor of Ebonyi state, spreading good roads all over the state.

This is Afikpo/Abakaliki road. Some parts of this road was hell on earth to ply. The horror of it literally reduced your life span each time you ride through it. As you can see, succor is here, thanks to DNU. Tarring has started, and soon, the rest will be history. Images captured yesterday.

Dear H.E DNU, you are writing your name in gold, what you are doing in the area of roads in Ebonyi state, just when we were getting used to bad roads, can never ever be forgotten, history can never forget you. Neither man nor God can ever forget. By aggressively making sure everywhere in the state capital and other areas never ever remembered in the history of this state, is motor-able and tarred, you will remain appreciated by all and sundry. Because no one spits out sugar. Thank you, our Ekubaaaaaroha. Living up to a name is good business indeed.

YOUR AREA: Biko if your area has yet to feel the DNU bulldozer be patient, be patient, it is coming for sure. He is not gonna leave out any LGA/constituency. He is a man on a mission, obsessed with getting things right.

Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Ezenwo Wike has recalled the suspended Caretaker Committee Chairmen of Abua/Odual, Ahoada East and Ahoada West Local Government Areas.

A statement by the Secretary to the Rivers State Government, Chief Kenneth Kobani noted that the affected chairmen are to resume work with immediate effect.

Chief Kenneth Kobani,
Secretary to Rivers State Government.
24th February, 2016.

A Reader encountered a lady motor mechanic in Warri, Delta State and reports that for all we care, she is a woman living her dream as a mechanic and doing exploits in a profession that had hitherto been exclusively men’s.

Ever met a lady engaged in a profession that is perceived to be a man’s exclusive preserve in these parts? Although there are a few of such persons in the country, in Delta State, Onajite Emoyan is the only lady mechanic. In a recent encounter, Emoyan, 37, regaled The Authority with her experiences as a mechanic and explained why she decided to become one.

Emoyan, 37, is an Urhobo from Agbaroh in Ughelli North Local Government Area of Delta State. She at­tended primary and secondary schools in Warri, the business hub of Delta State. Although her parents wanted her to go on with her studies, for one reason or the other, she could not. She was then advised to seek a trade where she could make a living for herself as a lady. But rather than seek a trade ‘in a woman’s world’ like tailoring or hair dressing, she opted to become a mechanic in the commercial city of Warri.

“My father actually wanted me to continue with my school but I was not interested in school, and so I asked myself what I could do with my life,” she narrated. “Since I could not go to school, my father thereafter advised me to learn a trade but I refused, because my interest or what I wanted to do was to be a mechanic, and that was how I joined the me­chanics in Warri.”

Her choice of career may appear baffling to the unin­formed, but she told The Au­thority she cherishes the pro­fession a lot.
“I just like being a mechan­ic,” she said. “I have not seen women doing it, so I decided to take it as a challenge. I love the job. If anything else comes my way, I wouldn’t abandon my mechanic job; no, not at all. That’s why I’m yet to be mar­ried because men that have come to me told me to leave mechanic, but I told them no, I can’t drop my mechanic job.”

Emoyan is happy being the only female mechanic among the over 5000 mechanics in Delta State. And she is ag­ile and active in the associa­tion of mechanics in the state, otherwise called the Nigerian Automobile Technicians As­sociation (NATA). An insider told The Authority that other mechanics respect her because she is the only woman among them.

Now, why is she so en­grossed with the job that she can’t leave it for anything else? Emoyan said: “I just like doing it. For a woman to come out to become a mechanic, it’s not a joke. I’ve gone round many places I’ve not seen a woman doing mechanic work. I’ve been hearing there are women but I’ve not seen any. It’s only when I travelled to Lagos that I saw a woman doing the work but apart from that, I’ve not seen any.”
She said that she feels happy being in the midst of other me­chanics doing her job. Accord­ing to her, the male mechanics see her as their only sister in the business and accord her the respect due to her. She re­pairs Peugeot and Mercedes Benz and other vehicle brands in the city of Warri.

Emoyan has been involved in mechanic work since 2001. Today, she is a seasoned pro­fessional in her own right. For her, there is much money in the trade compared to others, an added reason she is unwill­ing to drop the mechanic job for any other in the world.
Aside her testimony, an­other insider told The Author­ity that Emoyan has made money from the job. On how much she makes a day, she said it depends on the availability of customers “but I can confi­dently say there is money in it because there is always a good performance on daily basis”.

She said on a normal work day, she puts on her overall when working but outside af­ter the day’s work or on spe­cial functions, she dresses as a woman.
Although some vehicle owners attempt cheating her, apparently because she is a woman, she knows how to bring them round. “There is money in it but it’s just that there are some customers that are wicked. After working for them, they will tell you there is no money. That one brings quarrel but I will tell them you see me a woman doing this job and you want to cheat me, please encourage me and with that they will pay me my mon­ey,” she said, laughing.

Emoyan encourages wom­en to do descent jobs that could fetch them respect and money, saying women who engage in prostitution and other kinds of immoral acts in a bid to make a living, lack self-respect.
“I’ve always told women that they must learn some­thing,” she said. “You can’t just sit at home and wait for a man or be running from one man to the other. Man cannot give you enough money that will satisfy you as a woman. You go to Mr. A, he gives you money, you go to Mr. B, he gives you money, how long will you con­tinue begging for money? I believe when you make your money you will enjoy it better than what men give you as a woman.”

For the youths who are busy pursuing politicians and waiting for quick wealth with­out sweat, she said “that is not the best for them,” adding that “you cannot reap where you did not invest. My advice to the youths is to learn and be involved in a trade. If you are not hardworking, there is no way you can be successful in this life. I want to believe that those who make quick money without sweat are involved in rituals, cultism and armed robbery.”

On how she copes as a lady among men, she said a lady must be determined to face her job. According to her, it was her determination to learn and overlook the intimidation and harassment from men that made her succeed in the job.

“Yes, men will definitely disturb you but you must have the mind to bear their moves for you to succeed,” she phi­losophized. “When I started, the men were disturbing me but my boss will always call me and advise me to concentrate on the work that I have come to learn. So, my success in this job was borne out of my deter­mination and today I’m happy as a mechanic”.

From what i got online, i can't believe this after seeing and watching the first video of where Nigerian Soldiers (Females and Males) Where Busy Maltreating a Boy simply because the Boy Called one of the Armies Beautiful , which serves as s compliment but instead of the Female army to admire that she started beating the Boy .

In the new video that is viral Online, the actual cause of the tragedy is not reveled but from the comment released by one of the social media users who claimed that the boys in question failed to do the early morning Saturday clean up , which makes the landlord to invite the Soldiers for them. Instead of the soldiers to arrest them. now see what they did to them , telling them to slap each other and flogging them with Koboko. just check from the Photos and the Video below.

Newly-appointed national chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party, Ali Modu Sheriff, on Wednesday vowed to lead the party to regain control of the federal government in 2019.

Mr. Sheriff said nothing would stop his party, which lost power in 2015, from ousting the current All Progressives Congress’ administration.

Mr. Sheriff is a founding member of the All Progressives Congress. He defected to the PDP in 2014 ahead of national elections in 2015.

He gave his remarks on Wednesday in Umuahia, the Abia State capital, during a thanksgiving service organised to mark the victory of Governor Okezie Ikpeazu at the Supreme Court.
