Army Exposes Big Men Plotting To Prolong Boko Haram


The Nigerian Army has raised the alarm over plans by “some highly-placed individuals” in the North East, particularly Borno State, to sabotage military operations in the region.
“The Nigerian Army wishes to inform the public and send a very strong and serious final warning to some prominent individuals and political groups who hailed from Borno State in particular and North East generally, that there is information of plans by some highly placed individuals and political groups to undermine and scuttle the fight against terrorism and insurgency in this country. 
“The unscrupulous individuals and their cohorts were determined to reverse the gains made and scuttle our efforts of achieving the Presidential directive to defeat Boko Haram terrorists within 3 months. They are enlisting the services of some Non-Governmental Organizations in this grand design...
“It has come to our knowledge that they were employing every means to see that the operation does not succeed in order for them to continue to enjoy certain benefits.

“It has been revealed that they are employing the services of marabouts and other unethical means in order to frustrate our efforts and the operations in addition to campaign of calumny.

“We are aware of their clandestine meetings and other diabolical efforts to achieve their nefarious aims. This would not be tolerated.

“Therefore, such individuals and groups should be warned in unmistakable terms that anyone found would be dealt with accordingly.

“People should place the interest of the nation above any personal gain or ambition. The continued lost of lives and property in this country through terrorists activities does not one any good.”
A statement released by the army spokesman, Sani Usman, said the elite were bent on having the activities of the Boko Haram terrorists prolonged for their selfish interests.
I wonder why some people are just heartless. What will they benefit if Boko Haram continue to kill?

Saraki Begs Obasanjo To Help Talk To Buhari; OBJ Intervenes


President Mohammadu Buhari on Saturday held a secret meeting with former President Olusegun Obasanjo in New York in a bid to calm the tension going on in the All Progressive Congress (APC) over the ordeal of the controversial Senate President, Bukola Saraki.

The meeting which was held behind closed door at the Millennium Plaza Hotel in New York lasted for about 45 minutes.
Sources who were part of the meeting at its early minutes before being excused said that the former president had called the protocol officers of President Buhari to schedule the talks in order to plead for a soft landing for Saraki.

However, former Ekiti State governor, Dr. Kayode Fayemi, was sighted at the door of the room where the meeting took place, and all efforts to speak with him proved futile as he was busy struggling with security men who repeatedly stopped him from gaining entry.

All efforts by newsmen to speak with Obasanjo on his way to his hotel after the meeting met a brick wall as his security men prevented any interview from taking place.

Obasanjo even had to caution his security men, saying: “E fi won s’ile”, meaning “leave them alone”.

SARAKI SAGA: PDP's Secret Plots Exposed


Barely 24 hours after the arraignment of Senate President Bukola Saraki, some of his loyalists and Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) senators are secretly planning to fight back, The Nation has learnt.

They are said to be working on a plan which will lead to the election of a new Senate President from the PDP, should Saraki be convicted by the Code of Conduct Tribunal (CCT) - the "worst case scenario."

Security agencies already know about the plot, it was learnt.

Besides, there are signs pro-Saraki senators may have “laid an ambush” for President Muhammadu Buhari’s ministerial list, which is being expected at the Senate “any moment from now”.

They may reject the list and all appointments so far by the President in protest against Saraki’s trial.

The Presidency is unruffled:
A source, who spoke in confidence, said last night: “Some loyalists of Saraki and PDP senators have been meeting on the options available and how to tackle President Buhari.

“At the meeting in Abuja, they resolved to stand by Saraki but if he is convicted, they will make sure that the next president of the Senate is from the PDP.

“They are really aggrieved and have vowed to stop the candidate of the Unity Forum, Sen. Ahmed Lawan, from emerging as Saraki’s successor.

“From the way PDP and its senators are rallying around Saraki, no one needs a soothsayer to know that a bigger conspiracy is in the offing. The PDP has not come to terms with the fact that it lost the last general elections.”

Part of the plot is to reject Buhari’s ministerial list and all appointments so far made by the President.

The appointments include the Federal Inland Revenue Service, Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC), Nigerian Customs Service (NCS), Assets Management Company of Nigeria (AMCON), etc.

The source went on: “They know that Buhari will not present imposed candidates as ministerial nominees and they are out for a pound of flesh as from September 29 because the Code of Conduct Bureau (CCB) dragged the President of the Senate to the Code of Conduct Tribunal (CCT)”

It was gathered that security agencies have smashed the plot. A government source said: “The whole plot is aimed at frustrating the President and cause a political crisis in the country.

“They have this feeling that they must pull down the house due to the arraignment of Saraki by CCT. In spite of denial, they are pointing accusing fingers at the Presidency for Saraki’s travails.”

Attempts to make loyalists of House of Reps Speaker Yakubu Dogara to pitch their tent with Saraki appear to have suffered a setback.

It was learnt that although Saraki backed Dogara to become the Speaker, the “template has changed”.

“To take sides is to set the House on fire all over. This will not augur well for the new National Assembly,” said one of the close associates of Speaker Dogara.

Buhari's FULL Ministerial List Finally Ready, Names Revealed


As earlier promised by President Muhammadu Buhari, he will unveil list of his Ministers between Tuesday and Wednesday this week, to kick start their screening by the Senate as prescribed by the law.

OluFamous.Com gathered that some of the names who were dropped initially due to allegations have now been included and President Buhari has warned them to stay clear of financial scandals.
The names of top politicians on the list are:
Kayode Fayemi
Rotimi Amaechi
Abdul Danbazzau
Oby Ezekwesili
Pat Utomi, etc.

The special adviser to the president on media and publicity, Mr. Femi Adesina confirmed in New York last weekend that the list of ministerial nominees will be made public on Wednesday.

Adesina noted that Buhari is a man of his word who would not renege on his promise to Nigerians that he would announce members of his cabinet this September.

The Senate is billed to resume sitting tomorrow after seven weeks of recess. A top presidency official said that the list and a covering note from the president is likely to be read on the floor of the Senate on Tuesday or Wednesday.

But following Buhari unshakable stance that people with questionable character as ministers would not make the list of his ministers, there is a growing anxiety as to content of the list both within and outside the ruling All Progressive Congress (APC).

Will former Lagos governor, Babatunde Fashola eventually make the list? We are watching!

PDP Attacks President Buhari Over Choice of New Ministers


One event that is keeping many Nigerians waiting at the moment is President Muhammadu Buhari's list of new ministers, ahead of the deadine on Wednesday. Many are hopeful he won't disappoint Nigerians.

But the national leadership of the opposition Peoples Democratic Party, PDP has alleged that the ministers will be useless in President Buhari’s government.

The PDP leadership are claiming that
the disposition of Buhari was not to appoint any aide, but to run the government as a sole administrator.

The opposition party alleged that this was the reason President Buhari had been shifting the dates when he would appoint his cabinet, adding that he had earlier tagged ministers as “noise makers.”

“From his hesitancy and comments, it is deducible that President Buhari never intended to appoint ministers but rather prefers to run a monocracy and evidently does not value or respect those he would nominate as ministers.

“Otherwise, how can anyone repackage the mindset of the President when he, in an interview with France 24 Television in France, stated categorically that his preference is to rule without a cabinet and denigrated ministers as ‘noise makers,’ and of no importance or value in the running of an administration?

“Given this worrisome outlook, it is obvious that the Presidency would not attach any value or importance to the ministers under the new sheriff,” PDP insisted.

See The Wooden Bridge Constructed By Young Men In Adamawa Without Government Support (Photos)


This wooden bridge was constructed
by young men in Adamawa without
government support.
The old bridge was destroyed by
Boko Haram. It was a very important
bridge that connects Adamawa North
and Adamawa Central.
Even the governor and other
important people in the state use this
wooden bridge when they visit their
villages.
Instead of rebuilding the bridge, the
Adamawa state government recently
announced that it will spend 200
million Naira on prayer warriors.

I believe that is a misuse of public
money. Nigerians are praying daily.
You don’t need to spend millions on
prayers.
The North East states have a lot of
work to do in rebuilding the
communities and infrastructures
destroyed by Boko Haram.
I don’t think the governors in the
region understand the magnitude of
the problem. It is time for them to
wake up and get their priorities
right.
If you know the Adamawa State
governor tell him that rebuilding this
bridge is an important and urgent
project.

members of The Golden Movie Ambassadors. Just last week, he called me
to explain why he couldn't attend our last monthly meeting."
"I can recall that he mentioned that his absence was due to injuries
he sustained in a motor-bike accident about two weeks ago. I was
shocked this morning to get a call from one of his children that he
has passed on. We shall miss his useful contributions to discussions
on how to move the movie industry forward and instil discipline and
professionalism in our members. May his soul rest in peace."
Mufutau Sanni Abdulahi, a.k.a Ajigijaga, is a notable and still an

which actually made him to pick a career in acting and film making in
1981 (28 years back). He ultimately styled himself in a manner that

techniques of motion pictures—an orchestrated effort that is aimed at
suiting the desires of his teeming audience both locally and
internationally.
He is currently a member of Guild of Actors, Directors, and Producers

and also finds time to commune with God. -

WAEC Threatens To Withhold 19 States Results Over Debts




Hundreds of candidates who sat for the May/June
West African Senior School Certificate Examination
may not have their results released in the next two
weeks, the West African Examinations Council has
announced.

No fewer than 19 states of the federation owe the
council about N4bn examination registration fees.
The WAEC Head of National Office, Lagos, Mr.
Charles Eguridu, announced this on Monday at a
briefing in Lagos.
He, however, failed to make public the affected
states.
Eguridu said, "A total number of 19 states in the
country owe the Council in respect of entry fees
for state government sponsored candidates for the
May/June 2015 WASSCE. Some states also still owe
the Council registration fees for the May/June 2014
WASSCE.
"We have written to the affected state
governments without any response. The poor
response of the debtor states is threatening the
smooth operations of the Council.
"We, therefore, want to publicly plead with the
affected states to off-set the registration fees of
their candidates as soon as possible, as we cannot
guarantee that the results of their candidates for
the May/June 2015 will be released along with
others."
