Minister of Information and Culture, Lai Mohammed has debunked claims by senate president, Bukola Saraki, that he (Saraki) donated N10 million to victims of last April Offa robbery. According to the Minister, Saraki donated 10 million naira, when the Offa market got burnt, in Ilorin, not Offa, and not for the Offa robbery victims. “When Dr Saraki visited Offa to commiserate with the community in the aftermath of the robbery, he did not donate a dime! I challenge him to prove me wrong.” Segun Adeyemi, Mohammed’s media aide, in a statement in Lagos on Monday, claimed that, after his first warning, of the embarrassing radio interview, it was quickly edited to remove all references to the Offa robbery and then re-aired across Kwara State. “Instead of stopping at that, which in itself constitutes an acceptance of wrongdoing, Dr. Saraki went ahead to hurl insults at me, even when I have been largely restrained in issuing my earlier warning.

Why you should vote Buhari for second term – Ribadu

Image
First executive chairman of the Economic and Finance Crimes Commission, EFCC, has urged Nigerians to reelect President Muhammadu Buhari and his running mate, Yemi Osinbajo. According to him, Buhari has done a lot for ordinary Nigerians and as such deserves a second term. Ribadu said this, while speaking in Yola on Monday at a ceremony to unveil Black Cap Revolution Movement for Buhari and Osinbajo. “There is consensus among Nigerians of goodwill. Nobody wants return of those faces that are synonymous with our failure as a country. “For the past three years EFCC and others have been struggling to recover wealth stolen from this country within just a few years. We are happy now that such wanton stealing is not happening. We should not allow those who have no problem with stealing our wealth to get back on the wheels.” “This state is a farming state. Our farmers have been supported through Anchor Borrowers. We now have fertiliser all over. “In terms of infrastructure, Adamawa is wit

According to her, ‘I was fighting a serious battle for over a year. A battle I knew I could never ever have won by power nor by might. So instead, I decided to pray HARD about it. Oh dear, I disturbed God on this matter. I would sing, dance, cry, praise,worship; day and night’. A whole year passed and nothing happened. But I refused to give up. On the 17th of May (a day before my birthday), I went to a mid week service. I dragged myself to church that day. I was overwhelmed. I had no strength left in me. My head kept telling me to give up, but my heart and spirit said NO. There was an altar call in church that day for people who desperately needed God to show up for them. I joined about a hundred other people. I tried to control my emotions. A few tears escaped and I would quickly wipe them away but at some point, I let go. I showed my father, h

Ezekwesili laments killing of soldiers, wants independent verification

Image
The presidential candidate of the Allied Congress Party of Nigeria (ACPN), Dr. Obiageli Ezekwesili, has expressed concern over reports that 700 Nigerian soldiers were killed in Baga by Boko Haram terrorists. The news reports also alleged that over 2,000 of the country’s soldiers are missing. “Although the military and the Presidency have denied the reports, but the serial credibility challenges of the Buhari administration and the security team he leads as Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces have created public distrust of any rebuttal by government. And that is gravely worrisome,” Ezekwesili said in a press statement on Monday.  She said, “The only way to ensure accuracy of the casualty that Nigeria is suffering as a result of counter-terrorism at this stage is to inaugurate a citizens-led independent investigation panel. Such an initiative would go a long way to eliminate the opaqueness of the counter-terrorism war and restore public confidence, as the case may be, in how the
