‘Saraki Will Be Jailed When I Become President’ - Omoyele Sowore Declares

Posted: 28 May 2018 08:53 AM PDT

Sahara Reporters publisher and presidential aspirant for the 2019 election, Mr Sowore Omoyele says if he wins the Presidential Election, he will send Senate President Bukola Saraki to jail and that Kwara will be "liberated".

Sowore made this disclosure on Friday when he visited Ilorin, Kwara state capital, for a town hall meeting.

Saraki is from Kwara state.

Sowore said the number three citizen had turned himself into a "demigod" in the state.

He told the crowd who received him that he would put an end to the politics of godfatherism in Kwara and Nigeria as a whole if he is voted into power.

The publisher said the country would experience a "revolutionary change" in government by 2019.

"We will ensure that Kwara state is liberated from the hand of political godfather who can't build good roads, schools and infrastructures," he said.

"I remember last year, this was the same political godfather, Bukola Saraki, that seized our money, that was meant for the SaharaReporters Civic Media Lab, and brought it to Kwara state.

"This same Saraki went to the court to stop us and sent thugs to beat us after bragging he has all the Judges in Kwara state in his pocket.

"Let me use this opportunity to tell him that the money he seized from us would be refunded soon and will be paid with interest while he goes to jail."

Sowore in his address further said, the All Progressives Congress (APC) government has failed the nation, hence it "should be kicked out".
According to him, by 2019, "it will no longer be sai Baba but sai Bobo".

"By next year, we are taking back this country from the hands of the old guards and we would ensure we set its feet on the path of progress," he said.

"Then, it will no longer be sai Baba but sai Bobo because the country would not be left again in the hands of untrustworthy elders and leaders who have taken us back.

"We are tired of the old people in all the regions of the country mostly the ones who still think in analogue ways and have noting to offer us."

The Power Project Fund Of $16bn Was Shared By OBJ Friends - Orji Uzor Kalu States

Posted: 28 May 2018 01:20 AM PDT

Dr. Orji Uzor Kalu, the former Governor of Abia State, who served as governor between 1999 and 2007 during Obasanjo's administration as president, spoke yesterday on a Channels Television programme, Politics Today, where he accused the Obasanjo's administration of huge corruption during his tenure and  alleged that there was no project done with the $16billion.

Chief Kalu who alleged the former President Olusegun Obasanjo of sharing the $16billion Power Project Fund among his friends, disclosed that no project was executed. He therefore called for probe of Obasanjo's past government.

Kalu said: 

"I know that $16billion is missing. There was no project done with that money. That money was shared among people who are loyal to Obasanjo. And that is statement of fact. The money was shared by Obasanjo's friends; they are the people who shared the money. "It is not only electricity that should be probed; there are many other things that should be probed in terms of probing what any person in government did. There are many other mistakes that that government made.

We had a lot of disagreements. A lot of import licenses were issued to a lot of people who never deserve it. A lot of money were given to many businessmen which are unaccountable by that government. "If Obasanjo's government deserves to be probed, he should be probed.

I don't see anything wrong in probing any government that has taken Nigerian people's money. The money belongs to the people of Nigeria. There was a huge corruption under Obasanjo's government in not only the power sector. I wrote him a letter telling him.

Nigeria people were deceived and national assets were sold without due process." Ruling out the possibility of Obasanjo's coalition upstaging the ruling party in 2019, Kalu said: "I am not afraid it is going to be a threat because Obasanjo always wants to serve himself and not serving the people. Obasanjo is only thinking for himself. He is not thinking about the masses of Nigeria. I know him better than most Nigerians know him."
