I’m Anthony Adewunmi. Jimi Agbaje is one friend that I can die for. They say he is Just Kidding. Let me leave that to you after sharing a few things you may not know about & that he doesn’t say.
Independent & assured: They offered him Deputy Governorship position, but said no
Of all our friends, JK is the most patient and independent minded. I remember when Bola Tinubu offered him the Deputy Governorship ticket of our friend and current Governor Fashola, he said no.
This story was later made public by a top party chieftain of the other party during a campaign rally where he tried to make my friend look ambitious. Look! JK will not serve any other interests but the people’s and says “I will only be Governor on my own terms” Do you know what it means to turn down Power?
And you say he is just kidding. OK.

Private Billionaire: Several $Billion Businesses he is a part of.
Pharmacist Jimi Agbaje is by all standards a successful businessman and one of the quiet billionaires in the country through Hardwork, Determination and Excellence. What most people don’t know is that he is sentimentally attached to the popular ‘JK Pharmacy’ called a one-shop by APC. What they do not know: He is the co-founder of Atlantic Hall School, His company Oakwood Park owns several Protea Hotels. He is an original investor in GT Bank, Do you know the Oil & Gas and Power Company Vigeo; Our friend is on the Board also. Jimi has seen hard earn cash and never stolen public funds. This is the spirit of Lagos.
And you say he is just kidding? OK

Quiet Achievements
He was a Key member in the Anti-Abacha struggle that gave Nigeria this democracy we so cherish. He served as both the Treasurer and Secretary of Afenifere’s Political Committee, a chieftain of the Alliance for Democracy and a key member of Save Nigeria Group alongside Save Nigeria Group. He was a Chairman of the Pharmaceutical Society of Nigeria over 20 years Ago.
And you say he is just kidding? OK

Don’t Joke with Biola

Jimi does not play with his wife. They are that close. In 2007, he famously said “I DARE anybody to say he has seen Jimi Agbaje with any other woman apart from his wife” How many Rich, Successful and Politician can unequivocally say this.
I won’t pretend to be a Saint and won’t say Jimi is one either. But I am convinced he is a better choice than Ambode who I also know very well.

Forget all the talk about Party, PDP = APC and APC = PDP. Everyone is aware of the recent defections. Let’s vote the Man!

Press release by INEC ahead of Saturday's elections

  Press release by INEC ahead of Saturday's elections

 

 

Press statement from INEC ahead of Saturday Gubernatorial elections..
The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has received reports that some political leaders are asking members of the public to disregard its stated resolve to use Permanent Voter Cards (PVCs) and Smart Card Readers (SCRs) for the April 11, 2015 Governorship and State Assembly elections.
A particular state governor in the North Central geo-political zone is reported to have assured voters in the state that they could come out to vote on Election Day with Temporary Voter Cards (TVCs) if they do not have the PVC, and that INEC will not be allowed to insist on the use of SCRs for voter accreditation.

Members of the public are strongly advised to disregard false assurances that contradict the regulations INEC has outlined for the Governorship and State Assembly elections. The Commission reaffirms that only voters with genuine PVCs should come out to the polling units on Election Day, and that guidelines issued on the use of SCRs for the April 11 elections will be strictly applied. Any action infringing these guidelines will be an electoral offence, and security agents will be on hand to apprehend offenders.

The Commission commends Nigerian voters for their peaceful conduct and exemplary resilience, even in the face of minor challenges, during the Presidential and National Assembly elections on March 28, 2015. It, however, considers it unfortunate that some leaders would misguide the public and thereby prepare ground for needless disruptions to the polling process on April 11. INEC hereby warns that any obstruction to the processes it has put in place for the elections by any person, no matter how highly placed, will constitute an electoral offence punishable in law.

Meanwhile, the Commission has assigned the Resident Electoral Commissioner (REC) of Kogi State, Alhaji Hussaini Halilu Pai, to supervise the conduct of the Governorship and State Assembly elections in Kano State, following the tragic demise of Alhaji Minkala Abdullahi last weekend. Before his posting as FCT REC, Alhaji Pai was Ekiti State REC, who conducted the Governorship Election of June 21, 2014.

27-Year-Old Shehu Bashiru Arrested For Raping A 2-Year-Old Girl

27-Year-Old Shehu Bashiru Arrested For Raping A 2-Year-Old Girl 

 

 
 
 
Speaking to journalists at the police command where he was paraded, the suspect said he regretted his action and pleaded for mercy.
A 27-year-old man, Shehu Bashiru of Yabati Ward in Sabon Gari local government area of Kaduna State has been arrested by the Kaduna State police Command for allegedly raping a two-year-old girl to death.

The suspect was arrested by policemen from the Sabon Gari Area Command following a complaint from the father of the late minor, Mallam Zakkari Dahiru before he was transferred to the state police Homicide Department.

He confessed to the crime and said he did not know what pushed him into the act.
He said, “To be honest with you, I don’t know what come over me but I started flipping with my manhood which was already erected and, as if the devil want to punish me, the late Fatimah came into my room because we are neighbors and she is used to me.
“Immediately she came into my room, I stripped her Unclad and penetrated through her virgina. All of a sudden, she stopped breathing and I applied water on her head but that could not resuscitate her. From that moment, I knew that I am in big trouble.
“I became more afraid when her mother started asking about her and I told her I had not seen her that day. I put together some of my clothes under the pretence of washing them but her corpse was hidden in one of them.
“It was in this process that her father came into my room, saying that he was informed that some people saw his daughter going into my room. I asked him to come in and check if she was there.
“He came in and went to my inner room but did not find anything. He came back to the sitting room where I was sitting with my clothes. On his way out, he stopped and said he wanted to see what was inside the clothes on the ground.
“When he scattered the clothes, he saw the corpse of his daughter and he raised the alarm which attracted other neighbours and the police was invited”.
The father of late Fatima, Dahiru, who could not hold back his tears, told journalists that on the fateful day he was on his way out when his daughter asked him for money to buy bean cake .
“But I refused to give her. The suspect then came out of his room and asked for N50 to buy sugar which I obliged and it was the same money I later learnt he used to lure my daughter into his room”, Dahiru added.
The Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO) Kaduna State Command, DSP Abubakar Zubairu, said the case file had been transferred to the Homicide Department for further investigation. According to him, the suspect is being detained at the Criminal Investigation Department (CID)

Death Threat On Igbos: OPC Warns Against Unbecoming Comments Directed At Oba Akiolu

Death Threat On Igbos: OPC Warns Against Unbecoming Comments Directed At Oba Akiolu 

 


Oodua Peoples Congress (OPC) has warned Nigerians against making unbecoming comments against the paramount ruler of Lagos, Oba Rilwan Akiolu and warned that all those involved should desist from such unbecoming acts forthwith.

In a statement issued by the National Coordinating Council of OPC, Comrade Monsuru Akande, it stated that the “Yoruba institutions are not meant to be trampled upon”.Read Full Statement Below:

The attention of the Oodua People’s Congress (OPC) has been drawn to some unruly and unbecoming comments purportedly in reaction to alleged comments by the paramount ruler of Lagos, Oba Rilwan Akiolu and warn all those involved to desist from such unbecoming acts forthwith.

The institution of the oba is one the Yoruba race hold in high esteem, and the OPC as irredentist defenders of Yoruba culture and heritage would therefore not tolerate anybody -irrespective of their places of birth of conviction- to denigrate what their hosts (Yorubas) hold sacred.

While we accept that that institution should remain non-partisan, it must also be acknowledged that the Palace of the Oba of Lagos has already claimed that the royal father was misrepresented in the press and pleaded for understanding.

Be that as it may, the Yoruba’s accommodating and loving nature should not be misconstrued as timidity. As hosts, we have given all our visitors enough space and opportunity to bloom and flourish without molestations, and of all the tribes and visitors in Lagos, none has enjoyed the benevolence of Lagos and indeed all of Yorubaland as much as the Igboman and nation.

The evidence of the claim above can be found in the fact that Yorubaland as a whole is the most cosmopolitan area in Nigeria. We Yoruba have allowed other tribes to own businesses, properties and even contest and hold political positions on Yoruba soil in a manner unreciprocated anywhere else in Nigeria.

Using the same Lagos as an example, the fact that the likes of Pastor Ben. Akabueze and Joe Igbokwe have become an integral part of the political frame work of Lagos State for years now is proof enough that Lagos and indeed the Yoruba are excellent hosts. Akabueze has for the last ten years been directing and coordinating the economic direction of the state from his enviable position as the honorable commissioner for budget and planning while Igbokwe has held sways general manager at LASIMRA and head, UFRU.

Others such as Ngozi Nwosu the popular actress from Imo State who got N6million for overseas surgery, the late comrade Chima Ubani whose family got cash and a gift of 3bedroom accommodation at Marwa Gardens as well as First Consultant Hospital that got N50 million as compensation for involvement in the Ebola case are evidence that the Igbos are not despised in Lagos.

Nowhere in Nigeria -east of the Niger- is the Yoruba or any other tribe accorded the kind of gesture the Igbos have been enjoying in Lagos in the last 12 or so years since these bonafide Igbo men entered into the Lagos political scene.

As for the likes of Bode George, Fani-Kayode, Musiliu Obanikoro and their party the PDP, their outcry is the reaction of a person or group without shame and critical thinking (arojinle). Is it that they have a case of memory dysfunction or are they just plain mischievous. Have they so quickly forgotten that it is their party that started the politicization of the institution and monarchy with the president’s visit to the same Oba of Lagos earlier this January as the forerunner to visits to many other obas in Yorubaland. None of the PDP members complaining now saw any thing wrong with the attempts to involve our obas in partisan politics until it backfired against them and their party.

This brings us to the warning we issued earlier, when Gani Adams in his treacherous, sycophantic and reactionary move turned on the good people of Lagos unleashing violence and threat of violence against the perceived enemies of his paymasters.

If Adams had not behaved like an omo ojuorolari, he should by now be defending the sacredness of the stool of the Oba of Lagos or any other one in Yorubaland for that matter.

If Adams had not collected the billions he did, along with MASSOB and other ethnic groups, his co-travellers would now be degenerating and abusing our hospitality the way no one can replicate in their homelands.

In closing, we enjoin all members of the OPC and indeed the Yoruba nation to beware of the enemies within like Gani Adams and with one voice condemn all fifth columnist within our fold. And with the foregoing it is abundantly clear that Gani Adams who brought this odium upon us must quit the OPC.

Judge Declines Stoppage Of His Impeachment Proceeding

 

 
 
 
A Federal High Court sitting in Abuja on Wednesday refused to halt the impeachment proceeding being spearheaded by the Ekiti State House of Assembly against Governor, Ayodele Fayose, and his deputy, Kolapo Olusola.

The impeachment proceeding notice is said to have been served on the governor and his deputy by the 19 All Progressives Congress members, who have been at loggerheads with the governor since he came on board last October.

Although Fayose has been working with only six members of the PDP in the House, the APC lawmakers, which the governor does not recognise, returned to the state this week with an impeachment notice, prompting the closure of the House of Assembly by security agents.
