Those Calling For My Resignation Are Political Agents – Senator Saraki

Bukola Saraki 2

Embattled Senate President, Bukola Saraki has tagged those who have been agitating that he should step down in the face of the growing corruption scandals against him,  as political agents.

He insisted that those calling for his resignation were being sponsored by politicians who had always opposed his leadership since he emerged Senate President last June. He added that his detractors were trying to circumvent the country’s judicial system.

Senator Saraki was obviously responding to the Transition Monitoring Group which had called for the Senate President to step down.

In a text message sent to a reporter by his Special Adviser on Media, Yusuph Olaniyonu, Saraki said he was not contemplating resignation.
“There’s a case in the Tribunal and a resultant appeal at the Court of Appeal. The underlining philosophy of our legal system is that an accused person is presumed innocent until found guilty.
“Those who are contemplating calls for resignation want to circumvent the judicial system. They are obviously being sponsored by some politicians.

“The Senate President is not contemplating any resignation. He will surely have his day in court.”
Senator Saraki was arraigned by the Code of Conduct Tribunal and the online news platform expose about his secret offshore assets in tax havens, the calls for him to step down has continued to mount.

On Thursday, several activists and other Nigerians, including the TMG, openly called on the Senate President to resign. [myad]

Nigerians, Indeed, Will Get The Change They Voted For, Buhari Assured

Buhari 4President Muhammdu Buhari has assured Nigerians that despite the difficulties they are going through now, they would soon get the change they voted in 2015.

“We understand that Nigerians have started questioning whether this indeed is the CHANGE they voted for, while some have even gone as far as saying that by voting for our party, Nigerians have entered one chance.

“Well, I can tell Nigerians that our CHANGE AGENDA is real, and that indeed, they will get the change they voted for. Nigerians have not entered One Chance, because the One Chance drivers and their conductors have been driven out of town.”

President Buhari spoke through the minister of information, Alhaji Lai Mohammed at the Vanguard Personality Award ceremony where he was jointly honoured along with his predecessor, Goodluck Jonathan as Personality of the Year, 2015.

The President went on: “As a government that was propelled into office by the power of the people, we cannot but feel the pains of our compatriots, and we deeply empathise with them. We are working round the clock to ease the pains of Nigerians, and the efforts of the government have started yielding fruits as we seek to make the petroleum products available nationwide, restore gas supply to the power generating firms, reflate the economy and put Nigerians back to work.

“While we cannot but provide context for the challenges being faced by our countrymen and women today, in the sense that it has taken years of mismanagement, corruption and inefficiency to get to this sorry pass, we make no excuses. After all the people voted for us so we can correct the mistakes of the past and enthrone good governance. We are doing just that. But we want our compatriots to realize that 16 years of rot cannot be cleaned up overnight. It is much easier to destroy than to build. But we are determined to rebuild our country and to make life more abundant for our people.

“Change is a process, and that process has begun. We commend Nigerians for their perseverance. We urge them not to lose their confidence in the ability of this Administration to bring about the much-needed change. The pains of today are temporary, and will soon give way to abundance joy as we put our country firmly on the path of sustainable growth and development.” [myad]

New Planet Threatens Survival Of Earth: Institute Warns World Could End Any Moment

Planet 9A mysterious planet that wiped out life on Earth millions of years ago could do it again, according to a top space scientist. Some of scientists believe that the apocalyptic event could happen as early as this month.

Planet Nine, a new planet discovered at the edge of the solar system in January, has triggered comet showers that bomb the Earth’s surface, killing all life, says Daniel Whitmire, of the University of Louisiana.

The astrophysicist says the planet has a 20,000-year orbit around the sun and, at its closest to us; it knocks asteroids and comets toward Earth.

Fossil evidence has suggested most life on Earth is mysteriously wiped out every 26 million to 27 million years.

Whitmire claims that Planet Nine’s passage through a rock-laden area called the Kuiper Belt is responsible for the “extinction events.”

Conspiracy theorists in the ’80s and ’90s previously claimed a red dwarf planet called Nibiru or Nemesis, which orbits too close to Earth every 36,000 years, was behind the events.

Now some are convinced there will be a collision or a near miss before the end of April.

Nemesis or Nibiru was widely dismissed as crackpot pseudo-science — until Planet Nine was identified in January by the California Institute of Technology. [myad]

FCT Council Polls: Fracas In Kwali Over 500 Missing Ballot Papers, 2 Injured

VotersSome youths in Bako Village of Kwali Area Council of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), today, Saturday went on rampage over the missing of 500 ballot papers in their polling unit.

An eyewitness said that after accreditation and voting, the presiding officer of the Dabi polling unit counted the ballot papers and discovered that instead of 3,000 ballot papers, he had 2,500.

”This led to arguments between the presiding officer, party agents and party supporters at the centre, resulting in violence that left two people injured.

”This situation was however, brought under control by security agents attached to the centre”, Jeremiah Isaiah said.

As at the time of this report, the centre was deserted and pockets of youths were seen discussing in hushed tones the possible effect of the violence on the voting in the area.

Also, some voters were seen milling around hopeful that the situation would be resolved soon.

”Just like a dream, the situation escalated into violence. The party supporters believe that the 500 missing ballot papers have been taken to a place where they will be thumb printed in favour of a particular candidate.

”This can lead to outright cancellation of the voting process in Dabi,” a security agent, who pleaded anonymity, said.

Meanwhile, the Electoral Officer in Kwali, Dahiru Abubakar, has confirmed the incident in Dabi Villag, saying that the violence in the centre could affect the election, if the votes cast was more than the number of registered voters.

This was even as the minister of the FCT Minister, Malam Muahammad Musa Bello has commended the residents for the peaceful manner they conducted themselves during the election.
The Minister who monitored the election exercise at the Gwarinpa I District (Life-Camp), Kubwa satellite town and Jiwa Polling Stations lauded the residents for the matured way they queued up to observe their civic responsibility.
Malam Bello therefore urged them to keep the peace as they await the outcome of the exercise; adding that the FCT residents have shown that they are responsibly torchbearers in Nigeria polity.
He also paid tribute to the security agencies in the Territory for the proactive and professional way they have handled the entire exercise from the beginning to the end. [myad]

D.S.P Alamieyeseigha Was Niger Delta Martyr, By James Ibori

AlamieyeseighaDSP, I Write This With A Mixture Of A Heavy Heart And Compelling Sense Of Pride.  Even As I Mourn, I Find Comfort In The Love, Admiration, Reverence And Even Veneration That Have Gushed Out For You From All Parts Of Bayelsa, The Entire Ijaw Nation, And Beyond, Despite The Political Persecution And Orchestrated Disinformation That Culminated In The Public Hysteria Against You.

You Can Imagine The Mixture Of Emotions Running Through Me As I Write This. How Can I Possibly Tell Your Story?  Where Should I Start? It Seemed Like Yesterday When We Took Over The Reins Of Power From The Military Administrators In Our Respective States; Delta And Bayelsa.  How Can I Ever Forget The Role You Played In Resolving The Chaos And Disorder In Both States In 1999? Youth Militancy, Occasioned By Deep Resentment Of The Federal Government’s Political Manipulation And Interference In The Niger Delta, Troubled Both States. Unemployment, Neglect, Degradation Of Our Ecosystem, Oil Pollution And Poverty Pushed Our Youths To Convene A Conference Which Gave Birth To The Kaiama Declaration.  Delta State Was Overwhelmed By The Ijaw/Itsekiri Crisis. How Can I Forget What You Did To Incentivize The Chiefs, Peres And Agadagbas To Intervene Positively? You Secured The Peacethat Was Essential For Us To Settle Into Governance.

I Can Recall My First Visit To Bayelsastate After The Inception Of Democratic Rule; It Was A Forgotten State With One Road From The East-West Highway To Yenegoa And No More. We Went Everywhere By Boat. Fast Forward To Two Years Later; You Had Transformed The State Capital And The Neighbouring Towns And Had By Then Started Your Fast-Tracked Development; Establishing Schools, Notably The Niger-Delta University, Sending Balyesans To Universities And Vocational Schools Abroad On Scholarship, Etc. You Provided Stable Power Supply As Bayelsa Was Not On The National Grid. You Actually Integrated Baleysa Into The Nigerian State And Made It Part Of The Modern World. How Can We Ever Forget That?

You Rose Like A Phoenix From The Ashes Of Political Discontent And Discord To Bestride Bayelsa’s Politics Like A Colossus. Your People’s Love For You Was Displayed On Your Return From London In November 2005. The Entire State Was Agog With Joy Not Because Every Bayelsan Agreed With Your Politics But Because Most Bayelsans Believed Your Travails Were Triggered By Your Commitment To Their Cause.  Naturally, You Had Your Ardent Supporters As Well As Adversaries; Yet, You Rode Into Yenegoa Triumphantly Like The Biblical Jesus Entering Jerusalem.  That Was A Memorable Day In Bayelsa’s History. Your Enraged Traducers Sent A Heavy Deployment Of Troops To Government House, Yenegoa On A “Kidnap Or Kill Mission”. The Rest Is Now History. How Can We Ever Forget That Part Of Our National History?

You Languished In Jail Having Been Slammed With Spurious Charges Which You Vehemently Denied Till You Drew Your Last Breath. As Your Health Deteriorated, Concerns Were Expressed At The Highest Level Of Nigeria’s Political Administration. Emissaries Were Sent To Plead With You To See Reason And End The ‘Torture’ By Pleading Guilty; An Overture You Resisted Until One Of Our Illustrious Sons Was Dispatched To You In Lagos To Assure You Of The Government’s Intention To Pardon You After Your Guilty Plea. Dsp, You Know I Have The Credentials To Testify To This Fact. Oh, How Can We Forget Your Address In Court On The Fateful Day You Pleaded Guilty?

I Have Recalled Your Travails To Remind Your Family That You Died In Action, And To Reassure The Ijaws That You More Than Earned Your  Title; Ijaw Nation’s Governor-General. You Also Earned Your Epaulets As “General”.  You Led The Battle From The Front Like Kings Of Medieval Europe. You Died From Injuries Sustained In Battle. You Are Our Martyr!

Your Spirit Stoutly Opposed Injustice And Tyranny. And In 2005 When Nigeria Was Under The Grip Of A Budding Tyrant, You Felt That Injustice Must Be Confronted And That A Society That Cowers Before Tyrants Is Unworthy Of Freedom.  How Can We Forget How Furious You Were When Odi Was Demolished-With Youth Militancy As A Justification?  And When A State Of Emergency Was Imposed In Plateau State, You Publicly Condemned It As An Unconstitutional Act Of Rascality.

DSP, The Events That Led To Your Death Climaxed Well Before Your Orchestrated Arrest. The Year Was 2005 And The Event Was The National Constitutional Conference. The Federal Government Convened A Ruse In The Name Of A Conference And Appointed One Of Our Illustrious Sons, A Former Justice Of The Supreme Court,As Its Chairman. Unbeknown To The Man, The Confab’s Outcome Had Already Been Predetermined In A Document Containing The Final Resolutions – Though The Confab Was Just Starting. The Document Was Handed Over To The Jurist; Herejected It And Threated To Resign. When He Emerged From Aso Rock, He Immediately Called On You For Debriefing, After Which He Came Over To See Me.

As Was Usual Of You, You Immediately Summoned A Meeting Of The Niger-Delta Delegates At Oghara, After They Staged A Walk-Out From That Confab. You Articulated The Position Of The Niger Delta; To Insist On Derivation Principle Of Not Less Than 25% Graduated To 50% In Five Years.  You Also Advised Them To Coordinate The Southern States In Opposing Any Attempt To Ride On The Back Of Our Demand For True Fiscal Federalism To Impose A Six-Year Single Tenure As Contained In That Rogue Report. The Niger Delta Delegates Led The Assault Against The Single Tenure Proposal; The Real Agenda Of The Conference Conveners.

DSP, You Had Promised To Release Your Memoirs, But Could Not Do So Before You Were Killed. We Shall Work With Your Family To Ensure Its Timely Publication In Order To Do Justice To Your Contributions To The Niger-Delta/Nigerian Debate. Unfortunately, Many Nigerians Who Joined The Public Hysteria Against You Were Victims Of Media Manipulation. I’ll Only Remind Them And Their Manipulators, Of The French Writer, Emile Zola’s Words: “It Is A Crime To Lie To The Public, To Twist Public Opinion To Insane Lengths In The Service Of The Vilest Death-Dealing Machinations.”

To The Ijaw People, I Say Thanks For The Immense Honour poured Out For Our Leader, Who Fell In Battle. Such Apotheosis Is Given Only To The Truly Great. DSP, The Ijaws and Niger Deltans Salute You. We Will Honour You Forever Because We Affirm You as Our True Leader Who Became A Victim Of A Political “Witch-Hunt”. In 17th Century Medieval England, One Mr. Mathew Hopkins Styled Himself As “Witch-Finder General”. What An Irony; The Biblical Mathew Was An Ardent And Devoted Christ-Follower.  Just Like In 21st Century Nigeria When Political Foes Were Victims Of A Witch-Hunt, Mathew Hopkins Hounded The Innocent, The Weak, The Clergy And Political Opponents, Exploiting The Fear Of Naïve Englishmen And Dispatched His Victims To The Gallows Under The Guise Of Cleansing England Of Witches.  He Earned Notoriety In The Process But Earned Money As Well.  Suspected Witches (And Several Social, Political And Even Religious Opponents Too) Were So Maliciously Charged And Tortured Until They Were Either Forced To Confess Or They Died.

Either Way A Person Had No Way Of Proving His Innocence.  One Unfailing Method Then Was The Floating Test: A Suspect Was Tied To A Chair And Set Afloat On Water. If The Person Floated, He Or Shewould Be Burnt As A Witch, If The Suspect Sank And Drowned, Too Bad. In The Nigerian Witch-Hunt At The Turn Of The Millennium, A Politician Would Be Held In Custody Until A Guilty Plea Is Secured Or He Died In Custody. Dsp, You Were A Double Victim; They Forced You To Plead Guilty, Yet, The Medical Complications Arising From The Years Of Physical, Psychological And Mental Torture Killed You.

Even As I Carry My Own Cross, I Can Never Forget What You Stood For.  Those Who Knew The Real You And The Reason For Your “Death” Will Strive To Wipe The Dust Of Unsubstantiated Blame Off Your Gravestone And Leave Your Name Free From The Undeserved Dirt Thrown By Mudslingers, Even As We Wait In The Unfailing Hope That One Day The Truth About Your Travails Would Emerge.  As Zola Said In That Newspaper Article (J’accuse) Of Thursday, Jan. 13, 1898, “As For Myself, I Have Not Despaired In The Least, Of The Triumph Of Right. I Repeat With The Most Vehement Conviction: Truth Is On The March, And Nothing Will Stop It. Today … The Positions Have Become Clear: On One Side, Those Who Are Guilty, Who Do Not Want The Light To Shine Forth; On The Other, Those Who Seek Justice And Who Will Give Their Lives To Attain It. I Said It Before And I Repeat It Now; When Truth Is Buried Underground, It Grows And It Builds Up So Much Force That The Day It Explodes It Blasts Everything With It.”

DSP, Time, The Acid Test Of Values, Will affirm You A True Leader Who Made Invaluable Sacrifices, Including The Supreme Sacrifice, On Behalf Of Your People. Time Too Will Expose Those Who Ganged Up Against You, Framed And Hounded You To Death.

A Few Weeks Before Your Death, We Had Our Last Earthly Conversation. Despite Your Travails And Failing Health, You Were Only Concerned About The South-South. You Said “Odidigboigbo, I Eagerly Await Your Return So That We Can Begin The Great Task Of Re-Uniting Our People So They Could Speak With One Voice”. DSP, When I Return, Nigeria Will Never Be The Same For Me Without You. Enemies Of Our People, Enemies Of True Democracy Which Accommodates Strong, Courageous, Vibrant And Viable Voices Have Actually Done Their Worst; They Have “Murdered” You.

My condolences Go To Your Wife, Her Excellency Mrs. Margaret Alamieyeseigha, And Your Children; Ayibatonye Gideon, Enetombra, Ebipadei, Emebelakpo, Saleaka And Oyinkari

“Bayo-O”, DSP, “Mala’muke On Parade”.Bayo-O,Fellow Bearer Of The Niger-Deltan Cross, And Victim Of Political Witch-Hunt. “Bayo-O”, Great Navigator In The Stormy Waters Of Nigerian Politics – You Broke The Waves, Paid With Your Life But Found Devotion In The Crew You Left Behind. People Will Surely Find The Shores For Your Life Will Be Their Guiding Compass.

This Is Not The End, My Friend. The Prize We Sought Will Still Be Won. Rest In Peace; Great “General.” [myad]
