My Victory In The Presidential Election Was By The Grace Of God, Not Power Or Money – Buhari
President Muhammadu Buhari has
stated that he won the last presidential election by the grace of God and not
by money or power, adding that, the 2015 polls has clearly shown that it is
God that chooses who becomes a leader. The president said this when he
paid homage to the Emir of Daura, Alhaji Umar Faruk
Umar, after attending the
Juma’at prayer at the Lowcost Mosque, in Daura, Katsina state.
“It is not by power, it is not by
wealth but by the Grace of God that I won the election,” the president said.
He also urged Nigerians to be
patient and accept democracy not as a system of government but as a lifestyle
in order to ensure development of the country.
“If Nigerians continuously follow the tenets of democracy the country will always be at peace since democracy on its own with its institutions has the mechanism for resolving conflicts peacefully,” he said.
The President, who delivered his speech in Hausa, urged those who were aggrieved after the 2015 elections to seek redress through democratic means and institutions.
Buhari noted that Nigeria was adopting democracy from the western nations and learning fast by avoiding mistakes made when studying the weaknesses and strengths of those nations.
According to him, if Nigerians decide to be hasty, some avoidable mistakes can be made.

Imagine how the residents of Friend's Colony Estate in Lekki, Lagos will feel after a heavy
rainfall. Residents say water is even entering some houses. They say the
problem is the canal built at the back of the estate which is now
blocked and is
preventing the rain water to flow out of the estate.

Power Tussle In APC As Atiku, Akande Battle For BOT Chairmanship
Power Tussle In APC As Atiku, Akande Battle For BOT Chairmanship
Saturday PUNCH reliably learnt on Friday that the tussle was between former Vice-President Atiku Abubakar and a former Chairman of the party, Chief Bisi Akande.
Investigations showed that the tussle was part of moves by the power blocs in the APC to influence decisions in the party by taking control of its various organs.
Saturday PUNCH had last week reported that two power blocs led by Atiku and a National Leader of the party, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, had engaged in a fierce battle to control the party.
It was learnt that the two camps believed that the BOT chairmanship would go a long way in assisting them to control the party.
The chairman of the BOT, according to Article 13.2 of the APC constitution, shall be elected by the board members.
Both camps, investigations showed, had started reaching out to members of the board, who would elect the chairman.
It was learnt that Akande was being backed by Tinubu, who is not happy with Atiku’s role in the National Assembly leadership elections.
The struggle for the chairmanship of the APC’s BOT, investigations revealed, became intense following the National Assembly leadership elections on June 9.
Atiku was reported to have supported Saraki and the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Mr. Yakubu Dogara, during the elections.
Tinubu and the party’s National Working Committee were said to have backed Senator Ahmad Lawan and Mr. Femi Gbajabiamila for the senate presidency and the speakership.
Former Vice-President Atiku Abubakar
Both candidates lost to Saraki and Dogara during the elections.
Investigations revealed that the emergence of Saraki as the senate president would enable the Atiku camp to take control of the party’s National Executive Committee.
The Senate President and the Speaker of the House of Representatives are members of the NEC.
Tinubu is believed to be in control of the party’s NWC as many of its members are said to be close to him.
The contest for the control of the BOT is still open to the two camps.
The media aide to Tinubu, Mr. Sunday Dare, could not be reached on the telephone as it indicated that it was switched off while a text message sent to his telephone was not replied to as of press time.
But a close associate of Akande, Mr. Adelani Baderinwa, told one of our correspondents that he was not aware that the former governor of Osun State was being nominated to be the chairman of the BOT of the ruling party.
Baderinwa, who was the former chief press secretary of Akande when he was the governor, spoke on the telephone with our correspondent in Osogbo on Friday.
He, however, said his former principal had everything needed to function very effectively in the office if he was elected the BOT chairman.
He said, “Chief Bisi Akande is eminently qualified to be BOT chairman of the APC. He was a chairman of the Alliance for Democracy; he was the chairman of Action Congress of Nigeria and was the Interim Chairman of the APC.
“Before this, you will remember that he was a deputy governor and later he became the governor of Osun State.
“If you are talking about Nigeria, he knows Nigeria very well and his integrity is unquestionable and he is an experienced politician.”
When contacted, the Managing Director of the Atiku Media Office, Mr. Paul Ibe, said he was not aware that the party had announced a vacancy for the position in question.
He, however, said the former Vice-President, Atiku Abubakar, had all the qualities to occupy the position should the opportunity present itself.
He said, “Like I have said elsewhere before, we are not aware that the APC has thrown open the race for the chairmanship of the party’s BoT.
“But if in the wisdom of the party, it elects to appoint Abubakar as the Chairman of its BoT, the Turaki Adamawa will be amenable and well disposed to it because he is eminently qualified to offer his services to the party at that level.”

The baby boy was born on March 18th this year in a home birth, as hospitals are required to write the name of the mother in their records when a child is born. The baby was delivered with the help of a midwife in the Neukölln area of Berlin.
On government records the new father, who is transgender, is registered as a man. This makes him the first male in Germany to give birth, Berlin newspapers reported on Monday.
Transgender people are able to give birth to children because even when a woman undergoes hormone therapy to become more physically masculine, they can retain female organs.

baby factory. He said he got approval from the state's Ministry for
Women Affairs
"I decided to run the maternity from my house. I am supposed to inform
the Social Development and Women Affairs Ministry within 24 hours of
admitting any pregnant women. I called the Ministry on phone instead of
writing them. The people I admitted came without referral.”One of the
victims, Ugwu Christable, while narrating how she got to the baby
factory said she was raped and brought to the baby factory to give birth

pregnancy. I was forced to marry an old man or leave the family which
made me seek assistance through one of my aunties. She was the one that
directed me to the home. At the home, all we do is to eat. We were asked
to list what we want with the agreement that after delivery, we will
leave our babies and go.”she said.
Nigerian ‘Psycho’ Killer Who Stabbed His Mother To Death, Has Been Jailed For Life
Nigerian ‘Psycho’ Killer Who Stabbed His Mother To Death, Has Been Jailed For Life
Remember Emmanuel Kalejaiye, the 22-year-old ‘psycho’ killer, who
stabbed his 44-year-old mother Tolu Kalejaiya to death? He was sentenced
to life in prison with a minimum of 15 years and three months. The
Essex University stabbed his mother more than 40 times at their home in
Wickford, Essex, in September 2013.
At the court today, the Judge Christopher Ball QC said: 'This was an horrific killing. You drew up plans to kill her, over weeks, if not months, and to dispose of the body.' He added that mental illness played a part in the killing and said Kalejaiye would receive treatment in jail. For those who haven’t heard of the case.
"Emmanuel Kalejaiye, 22, stabbed his mother, Tolu Kalejaiya, more than 40 times at their home in Wickford, Essex, in September 2013. He then dressed up in a women's tracksuit to try and fool neighbors into thinking she was still alive, the court heard.
Police found a bloodied pink hoodie and pink trousers, which Kalejaiye had bought from Primark a month earlier, as well as scraps of paper detailing an alleged murder plot.
It was said he laid cardboard and plastic down on the floors and wore the pink outfit to move his mother's car to deceive neighbors into thinking that she had left for work.
The jury heard how Kalejaiye, who was born in Nigeria but moved to England as a small boy, stabbed his mother to death on the morning of September 26 2013.
Receipts found at the house showed the murder weapon came from a knife block bought by Kalejaiye at Lidl just a month before the brutal stabbing.
Mrs Kalejaiye, who worked as an accountant for Camden Council, suffered more than 40 stab wounds to her head, face, neck, upper limbs and hands during the frenzied knife attack.
She called boyfriend, Leo Shogunle, on her phone during the attack at around 7.30am - although he only received the message when he awoke later that morning.
The jury was played a disturbing three-minute voicemail in which the mother-of-two can be heard screaming 'don't stab me, don't stab me - you're a demon', before the message fell chillingly silent.
Mr Shogunle raced to the home shortly after 10am on the morning of the attack after hearing the message and let himself in using a spare key.
He was confronted by the bloodied body of his lover lying on the kitchen floor and Kalejaiye, who said his mother had been attacked before fleeing the scene.
Kalejaiye was later caught on CCTV at around 10.30am calmly buying a can of coke and a pack of Maryland cookies at a local post office before handing himself in to police.
During police interview, he signed a confession stating: 'I admit killing my mother this morning by stabbing her. I did this because she subjected me to a lifetime of physical and mental abuse.
'She used the Bible to rationalise what she did to me. I believe she manipulated and brainwashed me.I have been very depressed for a long time. I have tried to overcome it but I couldn't take it anymore.'
