I wish they also learn how to be courageous in learning from pdp how to play opposition.

Gentlemen of the press, actually we walked out because the guy is becoming too much for us. The more we intimidate him, the more we lose. Hence, we all want to go to portharcout and console wike

Time is drawing closer for him. I see him resigning soon

I no care wetin una go talk o, but I think the moment all pdp senators walked out was the time APC had been waiting for to impeach oga dsp. If someone had raised it, I can't just imagine how senator akpabio would have ran back to his seat..



#justthinking

Even though the SP caused most of the problem initially, I think he has stood by his party. I strongly recommend the party to give him a soft landing now...... Just that ekweremadu guy sha..... The guy still needs to leave.

Why didn't he walkout with his colleagues?

APC I hail.

The couple that has defined gospel movie in Nigeria. There is hardly a successful drama minister in Nigeria today that hasn't had one thing or another to do with them sometimes in the past.

Happy Wedding Anniversary.

Agbara Nla.........

The only sad thing is that Oliseh's failure is super eagles failure.

But why are all Nigerian coaches arrogant?

Even if this is speculation, it may not be far from what PMB is thinking. Sincerely, only about 3positions there may seem not explainable for now. A closer look on the personalities and portfolios may explain it anyway

A little research has made me realise that one major reason behind fixed charges on electricity bills is to cater for maintenance and improvement of the equipment. But I would definitely if this is justifiable seeing what happens in our country today.

Here is my story:

A community spends months contributing money to buy transformer. After procuring that, they would be advised to quickly by cables and poles so that they can be connected without delay..... That takes another set of months. When all is bought, you'll still have to pay phcn staff to come and fix. Even the boys that come to site must also be settled. In the end, as soon as it is connected, the transformer automatically becomes phcn property (the community becomes helpless).

Even with all these, stable supply isn't guaranteed. What is probably guaranteed is increased fixed cost again and increased tariff. And the successor phcn companies are just feeding fat from the populace.

I submit that this is the height of exploitation.

hassan85:
Seriously speaking dt program has become so boring. Those two guys are so confused and always not knowing wat next. I like @seunokins intimidating postures and question. Realy want hime to come back.

Originality I must say. No matter how channels management feels substituting him with two people can do the magic, if it's not seun, it's not seun.


Wait o, it's like osewa's first name is also seun. No wonder my wife is also original.

Seun okinbaloye is a regular presenter and anchor of political debates on channelsTV. Perhaps the most popular of his programs on TV is politics today which is aired every Sunday by 8pm. For some two to three weeks now. Channels have replaced seun with two anchors. Yes! Two! The twitter handle for the program has officially changed. Seun is known for his doggedness and meticulous way of questioning his guests.

What happened to him? His he on leave?

Of the four of them, only ambo's smile looks fake sha

A very dubious man to the core. Life is vanity.

chukwudi44:
Fake news!! Saraki would never condescend to meet a mere commissioner and Tinubu's puppet!!

Siddon there. Person we don prostrate for mere commissioner. In saraki's word...... Baba Ossie. E jobs e gba mi o. E waye mi lode o. Oro ijosi, ere ma ni mo n se.....

PMB fall my hand here o. It would have even made sense if he sent this list in the morning. Senate may have read it today. However, there will be nothing really secret about the list again on Tuesday next week as against what our oga at the top wants to achieve. Besides, as much as many Nigerians hope to see the Amaechis and Fasholas of this world there, if PMB brings them in, then the delay and suspense wouldn't have been worth it.
That's the gospel truth. What most of us want to see are the aftermath of the suspense vis a vis some names from APC big names that Are expected

They forced me to sleep on bare floor for four days – Olu Falae
Posted by: admin in DEMOCRACY FOCUS, NEWS/ENTERTAINMENT, VIEWPOINT/OPINION September 25, 2015 0 33 Views



A former Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Chief Olu Falae, says he slept on bare floor for the four days that he was held in kidnappers’ den. Falae, who was released on Thursday after being kidnapped allegedly by some Fulani herdsmen on Monday, on his farm in Ilado village, Akure North Local Government Area of Ondo State, described his experience as “hell.” In his discussion with the state Governor, Olusegun Mimiko, who paid him a visit at his Oba Ile residence, Falae said his abductors were unreasonable in their demand.
He said, “When I told the kidnappers that my family could raise N2m for ransom against the N100m they demanded, they rejected it and told me, ‘Is it Boko Haram you are giving N2m to?’” After being released, the septuagenarian said he trekked several kilometers from his farm to a hotel in Owo town, where he met security agents that took him home.
It was like a biblical triumphant entry for the elder statesman as he was cheered by scores of his friends, family and people of Ilu Abo town, where he is a traditional ruler. All efforts to speak personally with Falae were prevented by his hostile children. Looking weary and frail, the former Minister of Finance arrived at his home at about 4.45pm in company with the Inspector-General of Police, Mr. Solomon Arase, the Assistant Inspector-General of Police in charge of Zone 11, Mrs. Kalafite Adeyemi, the state Commissioner of Police, Mr. Mike Ogbodu, and other police officers from the state command and the Force headquarters, Abuja .
Arase, who reportedly came to the state on the order of President Muhammadu Buhari to secure Falae’s release, said he was happy that the septuagenarian was rescued “hale and hearty.” On how Falae was rescued, the IG said, “I cannot tell you, it is not for you. It is purely a security matter, but I am happy he is rescued alive. “The most important thing is that baba has come home safely, that is the mandate the President has given to me and that is exactly what I have done.
“On the arrest made in connection with the crime and the amount paid as ransom, the police boss said, “I will let you know about arrest later, but no ransom was paid.” Expressing his delight over the release of Falae, the state Governor Mimiko, said there was a need to tackle the issue of security in a wider dimension. “We thank God he is back, but one is also worried that the issue of kidnapping is taking another dimension. That somebody of Falae’s pedigree was taken away while working on his farm, is a very serious security challenge and I think we must tackle it in a wider dimension.” Mimiko said.
Meanwhile, our correspondents gathered that the IG, Arase, who arrived in Ondo State at about 6am on Thursday, met with operatives from the Ondo State Police Command, and mobilised them to the Owo area of the state where Falae was rescued. A police source, who was on the rescue team, told RAW GLOBAL NEWS that Falae was rescued at about 2.30pm. He said, “We came into Ondo at about 6am with the IG. We then went to Owo town. The IG came with five units of mobile policemen and over 400 policemen from the Ondo State command. There was also the Special Intelligence Response team. The chief was rescued at bout 2.30pm.”
The Force Public Relations Officer, Olabisi Kolawole, also said the family did not pay any ransom to the kidnappers. She added that no member of the kidnapping gang had been arrested yet. She said, “The chief has been reunited with his family members. The IG went to the Ondo State command on Thursday to coordinate the release of the chief. He was rescued in Owo town. “There was no ransom paid before he was released. He was rescued from the gang. As of now, the police are working on arresting the suspects, and they will be brought to book. WHome » DEMOCRACY FOCUS » They forced me to sleep on bare floor for four days – Olu Falae

We need details. All the same, e Pele baba. It is well.
@d poster before me, so the fact that many people sleep on bare floor makes baba's treatment normal right? Rubbish is what you have said if you ask me.

Nobody is saying oga is not going through this because he's the Senate president. Instead of staying in the Senate jeje and enjoy your loot. In fact, get more loot as a floor member or chairman of one committee, you went against the party to fornicate with pdp. As if that wasn't enough, you had an opportunity to appease the party the way oga dogara did. But you felt you were smarter. Sir, oga dogara too has past o. But he knew when to stop........

Oga sorry o. Na your time.

Those who live in glass houses should not throw stones sir

Why is everyone thinking this is buhari? For all I care, it may be a mere commissioner's handwriting
