| Senate President Candidacy: Why PDP Senator Declared Support For Ahmad Lawan Posted: 01 Jun 2019 12:30 AM PDT
Senator Peter Nwaoboshi, a lawmaker, has declared support for Senator Ahamad Lawan's Senate Presidency bid.Nwaoboshi (PDP-Delta) made this known while briefing newsmen in Abuja on Friday, News Agency of Nigeria, NAN reports.The Federal Lawmaker, said from his assessment of all the contenders for the position, Lawan had better credentials."In 2015, I made my support clear that I was going to support the incumbent Senate President even before other persons came to join and my prediction came to pass."I have called you people again this year to make my position clear because I believe that after the election,what should've paramount on my minds is Nigeria.READ ALSO: Senator Peter Nwaoboshi's Certificate Of Return Withdrawn By INEC "Not party, not religious affiliation but what we think is good for Nigeria. "To that extent I have been thinking, I have been watching all the aspirants and many of them have come to consult with me, speak with me on phone, visited me personally both on the chamber and outside the chamber. "So, I feel it is necessary for me to make my position clear so that some of these questions people are asking can be resolved. "Now this is my personal position. When I believe in a cause, I would always work to want to advance that cause. "For the Senate presidency, I have made it clear to my friends that I will support Sen. Ahmad Lawan for the presidency of the 9th Senate," he said. He said his decision was informed by Lawan's competence, intelligence and ability to carry others along irrespective of party affiliation or ethnicity. "It is for the following reasons. I have found out that Sen. Lawan has been in the senate for the past 20 years and as such he has gathered a lot of legislative experience in the House of Representatives and in the Senate. READ ALSO: Senate Presidency: APC's endorsement of Lawan unconstitutional – Ndume "The president of the senate is the chairman of the national assembly who ought to understand the workings of both chambers and Lawan has experience from both chambers. "Also as a leader, I found in him competence, intelligence and he appreciates the views of others and he listens to better arguments. "Any leader who is going to preside on that chamber must be able to accommodate other persons and must be intelligent. "Make no mistakes, I never supported him in the 8th senate and I had my reasons but I also believe that in this one I am making a good choice in supporting him," he said. He cautioned against unguarded statements that might affect the goodwill the senators-elect had for Lawan, adding that it was their prerogative to choose their leaders. Nwaoboshi stressed that the legislature had its mechanism for choosing and removing its leaders, advising that rather than handing down instructions, stakeholders ought to consult with the lawmakers to be. He said, "I must give cudos to the APC Deputy Chairman, North, Distinguished Sen. Shuaibu. He made a statement that is consoling, saying leadership must consult and negotiate not to sit in your house and say it must be this person. Nobody is a child. "That is why you see that even those who support Lawan are withdrawing especially within my party. In as much as we agree that whoever is going to be senate president will come from your party, it is not for you to tell us is this person or he will never have anything to do with us. That is not statesmanly.We are going to choose our leader and when we found out that the person is no longer serving the Nigerian people, we have our own mechanism. "The senate is made up of men who have distinguished themselves in their various careers. So you do of sit I'm your office or in your high heaven and dictate to them who is going to be their leader. "Most of the resistance that people are seeing especially in my own party. It is not because someone is questioning Lawan's competence that he does not have the experience or intelligence. READ ALSO: Why we want Lawan as Senate President, by APC Governors "The senate should be left to choose their leader." On his victory at the Court of Appeal, Nwaoboshi said he was confident of winning, adding that, "I knew that judgement will not stand."

Timi Dakolo took to social media to call out the COZA pastor claiming that he sexually abuses ladies in his Church and abroad. He also said he has evidence he could tender to buttress his claims. His post didn't sit well with some members of COZA who criticized him and forced him to caution them as seen below. DEAR AGGRIEVED AND AGGRESSIVE CHURCH MEMBERS, PLEASE USE THE SAME ENERGY YOU ARE USING TO CALL ME, AND THREATEN ME OR SLIDE INTO MY DM TO SEARCH FOR THIS VICTIMS AND ASK THEM WHAT REALLY HAPPEN.THAT IS WHAT JESUS WILL DO. In reaction, Daddy Freeze, who once had a spat with Timi Dakolo over pastors, stated that: Timi, we don't have to be friends or even follow each other to stand for the truth, especially when it involves the lives of vulnerable women who look up to the pulpit for protection and guidance only to end up being abused, damaged and scarred. The extortion and intimidation of church members by clergy men must stop, this generation needs healing, not hurt. I have heard the rumors, from many victims…… – Ignore the threats, stand by the truth, closure for the victims ALWAYS brings healing. ~FRZ In This Story: #DaddyFreeze #rumors #COZA #pastor #victims Sharing is caring.

| Herdsmen Killings: Nigerian Islamic Cleric Who Saved Christians From Slaughter, Honoured By US Posted: 31 May 2019 11:58 PM PDT
Abdullahi Abubakar, the Chief Imam of Nghar Village, who protected over 200 villagers during attacks by herdsmen, on Barkin Ladi Local Government Area of Plateau in June 2018, has been honoured by the United States Mission in Nigeria.Mr. Stuart Symington, the U.S. Ambassador to Nigeria, awarded the Chief Imam with Ambassador's Peacemaker Award for Heroism at an interfaith dialogue organised by the embassy on Friday in Abuja.Symington urged the world to emulate Abubakar's act of brotherliness which he described as a virtue of kindness to promote global peace, Daily Post reports.The US Envoy also advised mankind to love each other and let the idea of one family take the centre stage.READ ALSO: Buhari Invites Magnanimous Imam Who Saved 300 Persons From Plateau Killings To The Presidential Villa, For Presidential Handshake And National Honour"Abubakar's act of brotherliness raised hope of a cohesive society in the face of growing mistrust. "Today, there is only one word that matters and that is perhaps, love. Or perhaps, one more word, family. "With the lesson of this Imam, Chief Imam, this Village Head, this Deputy Imam, and all of those who brought you this story, is a lesson not just for Nigeria, but for all mankind – one family, one race, one love," Symington stated. He said that coming together to invest in each other was one of the best ways to end recurrent violence in the country. "It (violence) will end when all come together and invest in each other and when individuals find the path forward, for not just for their own daughters and sons, but for the daughters and sons of every Nigerian," he said. Abubakar said God, who created mankind, had a reason for creating mankind in different forms and brought mankind together and gave a command to mankind not to harm each other.

God has a reason. He is the only One who knows why he created us that way. "It is unfortunate what happened in my community which led to the demise of some in the community and by Allah's grace, some have survived to tell the story," Imam Abubakar said. June 23rd, 2018 remained indelible in the minds of indigenes of Nghar Community and the whole of Barkin Ladin Local Government when over 400 hoodlums on motorcycles and armed with sophisticated weapons invaded the area. They went from community to community on a killing spree and the gruesome attack left 84 people dead. However, the swift action taken by the chief imam of the community who hid some Christians helped in reducing the number of causalities.  | ||

| Call For Oshiomhole’s Resignation Divides APC Members Posted: 31 May 2019 05:02 PM PDT
Senator Lawal Shuaibu, the Deputy National Chairman North, of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), has received a seven-day ultimatum from Chairmen of the party, in the six states of the South South, to apologise to the National Chairman of the APC, Comrade Adams Oshiomhole.According to media reports, the Chairmen threatened that Shuaibu will incur the wrath of the people of the zone, if he failed to do so.They described as irresponsible and mischievous, the letter written to the national chair, asking him to resign, Daily Post reports.The Chairmen added that the tone of the letter showed Senator Shuaibu was being used by enemies of the APC.They declared this in a communique signed by Hon. Ini T. Okopido (Akwa – Ibom State), Hon. Amos Lalabunafa ( Bayelsa State), Mr. John Ochalla (Cross Rivers State), Prophet Jones Ode Erue – State Chairman , Delta State,Barr. Aslem U. Ojezua (Edo State) and Ojukaye Flag Amachree – State Chairman , Rivers State.READ ALSO: JUST IN: Six APC Governors Fingered In Oshiomhole's DSS Arrest The communique reads, "Following the debates generated by the Deputy National Chairman, North Senator Lawal Shuaibu's call on the National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), to resign, the South – South State Chairmen of the party has risen in defence of the party's National Chairman faulting the public outburst of a senior party official who ought to be well acquainted with the provisions of the party's constitution regarding how to channel perceived grievances if any exist. "The State Chairmen rising from an emergency meeting in Abuja called to review the content of the said letter and to critically evaluate the situation, came to the view that the Deputy National Chairman North merely expressed his personal opinion on perceived issues which is not a reflection of the views of the generality of party stakeholders who are yet to find anything ontoward in the stewardship of the party's National Chairman His Excellency, Comrade Adams Oshiomhole. "The State Chairmen further disagreed with Senator Lawal Shuaibu's claims that the actions of the National Chairman was responsible for multiplicity of court cases bedeviling various State chapters of the party rather, they asserted it was the landmines created by his predecessor who was bent on destroying the party before departing that fueled the unfortunate situation and wondered why Senator Lawal Shuaibu is just realizing the issues he raised barely few days after the NWC set up a committee to look into petitions against highly placed party stakeholders who were glaringly involved in anti-party activities which was responsible for the loss of the number of states mentioned in his letter vis a – viz the depletion also in the numbers of elected Senators in the just concluded 2019 elections. "The State Chairmen also debunked the allegations of high-handedness against the National Chairman with particular reference to the altering of National Working Committee decisions as a veil plot to crucify the National Chairman over his uncompromising stance on truth against elements bent on destroying the party from within. READ ALSO: Oshiomhole Cries Out Over Plot To Pass No Confidence Vote On Him "They however, urged for restraint on the part of Senator Lawal Shuaibu asking him to employ more civilized ways of expressing whatever private grievance he has against the National Chairman instead of playing to the gallery by granting interviews to launch unprovoked attacks on the National Chairman and by extension, the very party he claims to love. "The State Chairmen wondered whose interest the media outburst seeks to serve and it's original intendment stating unequivocally that, the National Chairman cannot be removed on the pages of newspapers because the constitution of the party which Senator Lawal Shuaibu subscribed to, as a member of the NWC, clearly guarantees the tenure of office of the party's National Chairman and the processes of removing him from office. "The Deputy National Chairman North is hereby given seven days to apologise to the National Chairman in order not to receive the wrath of party members in the South South. "The State Chairmen also frowned at the intermittent and most unjustifiable attacks on the National Chairman who have maintained unblemished records since joining active politics and has untiredlessly ensured internal democratic norms are entrenched in the party since his assumption of office. "The State Chairmen observed that what the Deputy National Chairman , North have done is tantamount to creating disaffection amongst party faithful. This they said , is very offensive to the constitution of our great party. "The Chairmen thereafter passed a vote of confidence on the National Chairman and vowed to resist any attempt to blackmail him out of office for standing against injustice that has hitherto been the hallmark of his predecessor which was the only legacy he left behind," it stated.  | ||

| Sagay Calls On APC To Return To Court On Zamfara, Rivers Posted: 31 May 2019 12:48 PM PDT
Professor Itse Sagay (SAN), has called on the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) to return to court concerning the Supreme Court's ruling on Zamfara and Rivers.According to Professor Sagay, there is remedy in law for the APC on the Supreme Court's voiding of its electoral victories in Zamfara.The Nation reports that Sagay asked the APC to apply to the apex court for a review of the verdict as well as the one, barring the party from fielding candidates in Rivers state during the last elections.The Supreme Court transferred APC's victories in Zamfara state to the main opposition party, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), for alleged irregularities in the ruling party's primaries, after a lower court ruled the same on Wednesday, April 24. To Sagay, the verdicts "are a travesty of justice."He said in a statement sent to journalists: "The Zamfara and Rivers state judgments are a national tragedy. We should not allow our legal system to throw up such unimaginable injustice."This major judicial disenfranchisement of the Zamfara and Rivers electorate should be reversed. I advise the APC legal team to apply for a review of the two judgments. READ ALSO: 'Why APC May Lose The Presidency' – Sagay "Their Lordships ought to be given an opportunity to reverse this unprecedented tragedy. "The prefix 'Justice' preceding the names of Supreme Court and Court of Appeal judges is significant, for it prescribes what they stand for and what they represent: justice!" Sagay pointed out that in the governorship election in Zamfara, the APC candidate scored well over 500,000 votes while the PDP candidate scored just over 100,000 votes. He noted that the APC won all three Senate seats in the state, seven House of Representative seats and 24 state House of Assembly seats. The statement reads in part: "By this judgment, the landslide APC victories in the governorship, Senate, House of Representative and House of Assembly elections are transferred to the PDP. "If the APC primaries were defective, should the electorate be deprived of their democratic and constitutional rights to vote? Is the electorate to be punished for the transgressions of party officials? "Should the judiciary replace the electorate's decision and install losers in office? Could the judiciary not have drawn on the deep recesses of its intellectual capacity, authority and its inexorable commitment to justice, to prevent this undemocratic calamity? "Can the APC officials not be punished, for their lapses without denying the electorate their democratic rights? Should the judiciary take over the electoral rights of the electorate? Is this not a clear case of technical law completely overthrowing justice? "Have the members of the Supreme Court not achieved a level of creativity and authority to provide a solution without burying democracy and taking over from the registered voters as the judicial electorate? "If this judgment had been an international one, it could have been described as 'shocking the conscience of humanity.' In this case, it shocks the conscience of Nigerian humanity." Citing several authorities, Sagay said the Supreme Court is specially endowed with the power and authority to do justice and to ignore law when it is technical and would create injustice, and to avoid at all costs a mechanical approach to the interpretation of the law. "Now, has justice been served in Rivers and Zamfara states? No! In one case, innocent electorate in their hundreds of thousands were prevented from voting for their party by judicial order. "In Zamfara, where voting took place, the verdict of the electorate was taken away from the victorious party and awarded by the judiciary to the woeful losers. "In the next four years, Zamfara state will be governed by a party and politicians rejected by the electorate. This indeed shocks the conscience of Nigerian humanity," Sagay stated.

Comrade Frank, a former deputy national publicity secretary of the APC, made his stance known in a statement sent to Legit.ng on Wednesday, My 29.
