BIAFRA: GENERAL J.O ACHUZIE proved Mazi Nnamdi Kanu the IPOB leader right

SOUTH-SOUTH DOES NOT EXIST: GENERAL J.O ACHUZIE
Following an interview granted by General J.O Achuzie to Family Writers/Biafra Journalist in his
 
hometown Asaba Delta State,he proved Mazi Nnamdi Kanu the Leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra and Director of Radio Biafra/Biafra Television  right, that the name South-South is an evil ploy devised
by the Hausa/Fulani to divide Biafrans,as the “DIVIDE AND RULE” ploy is the best way to promote hatred between all regions in Biafra Land and to have easy access to Biafra natural resources. In Mazi Nnamdi Kanu’s words “I HAVE NOT SEEN WHERE ONE CAN BE CALLED A MINORITY, IN HIS OWN FATHERS LAND. THE SOUTH-SOUTH GARBAGE IS A DIVIDE AND RULE TACTICS CONCOCTED BY HAUSA/FULANI, INOTHER TO HAVE EASY ACCESS TO OIL AND GAS, FROM OUR BROTHERS THEY REGARD AS MINORITIES”.


In the interview, General J.O ACHUZIE “THE AIR RAID” said; “I was queried by some group of persons on how we say that South-South is part of Biafra? I laughed and asked them, what they mean by South-South?  Up till 1960-1970 there was no South-South, not until YAKUBU GOWON decided that the North was not satisfied with the Program against the South. 

N5,000 stipends: No country would give free money — Ngige


He said that no country would give free money, stressing that Nigeria would not be an exception.
Speaking to journalists yesterday at the national secretariat of the APC in Abuja, Ngige, however, revealed that the Federal Government would ensure that the youths were trained in various skills and programmes to justify the money.

He added that the project would also involve the state governments.

According to him, there will be categories of people, who would earn higher than the N5,000.
“We also have the programme on the commission cash transfer. Though even you, the press, has said it,  we won’t pay N5,000 for people to be indolent. No country in the world would pay people to go home and sleep and collect cash. So, Nigeria would not be an exception.

“We will pay some people N5,000, we will pay some N10,000, and even for people in teacher conversion scheme, we will pay more than N10,000 and N15,000 as stipend while in training, and then after the training, they are going to be employed by state government and the Federal Government in different institutions.

“It is not a programme we shall run alone, the state governments are going to buy into it. They are going to synchronize with us.We are going to do it in synergy.”

Ngige also stated that some of the programmes will “span through Ministry of Education, Ministry of Agriculture and Ministry of Labour.

“Agriculture, because we have some agricultural universities, we will convert some people to teach the relevant agricultural science.”

The minister who stated that Nigeria has various skill acquisition centers also underscored the importance of training the youth.

“The ministry has specialist skills acquisition centres; we have seven like that in the ministry under the commissioner of skills or directorate for skills.

“The NDE have over 120 centres scattered all over the country. We also have those that have been built by state government and we want to capture all of these into that scheme and then get people to the scheme to be bricklayers,  POP designers, builders, welders, electronics repairers and the one they called mecha-tronic, repair of vehicles, automobile carpentry, painting and fabrication of all sorts.”

President Muhammadu Buhari declares he is still in control of the country

ABUJA — President Muhammadu Buhari declares, that he is not caged by any group or individuals and that he is in firm control of the presidency and the country.



The President was reacting to assertion by Col. Tony Nyiam (rtd), who in an exclusive interview
stated that President Buhari was caged by some powerful forces around him who now dictate and determine most decisions of the President, especially in the areas of political appointments.

Nyiam was quoted as saying that some of the appointments of the president were lopsided
He said: “One of the greatest things I heard from Buhari was when he said ‘I belong to everyone, I belong to no one.’ I believe him, but I do hope he doesn’t allow some irredentists around him to prevent him from practicalizing it and not for his own ethnic nationality.

“The recent appointments we have seen so far suggest that President Buhari is being misguided and being pushed to be very partial. He has made critical appointments in three critical areas. One is the Accountant General of the Federa­ tion, the Director of DPR and the acting INEC chairman. These three critical appointments and of course that of the Chief of Staff are all coming from the same zone.

“There is also that of the Director General of the DSS, Daura. Not only is he a man that has been in retirement, he is directly from the president’s town. If Jonathan had done the same thing by appointing the Director of DPR and the Accountant General from the South-South, people would have raised hell.

“You must remember that the Accountant General took over from someone from the South-West, Otulana. Why couldn’t Buhari appoint a south westerner, at least as a gesture to the South-West for the support they gave him. The DPR director was an Igbo chap. I think these appointments are clearly indicative that the President has not been allowed to follow his principle that he belongs to everyone.

“President Buhari is a man I served with, he is a man who is a true Nigerian; he is a man who is a true man of God. What I am suggesting is that he appears increasingly and gradually being caged by irredentists who are going to spoil his chances of becoming the Mandela of Nigeria.

“I have said it before that the closest analogue of Mandela in Nigeria is Buhari. But it does seem to me that some elements, some irredentists with agenda will not allow Nigeria benefit from such a figure.”

But reacting to the statement, Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity, Mr. Femi Adesina, said though individuals are entitled to their opinions, the comments credited to Nyiam were not true.

According to him, if Col. Nyiam admitted to have a vast knowledge and workings of the President in the past and also spotted his impeccability, he was in a better position to tell other people that President Buhari cannot change.

Said he: “Well, Col. Nyiam is just an individual. He is entitled to his opinion. But his opinion is not necessarily right. The fact that he said it does not mean it is true.

“I am happy that he knows the person of President Buhari deeply. If that is the case, he cannot easily admit that the man he spoke glowingly about cannot change or be influenced by anybody.

“Everyone in Nigeria knows President Buhari. He had been a Head of State and we saw how he dealt with corruption and even now, he is not relenting. As a matter of fact, he made corruption the chief issue among his campaign promises and he is dealing with that.

“Besides, he has said right from his swearing in that he belongs to no one but everyone. Why would he now change? And don’t forget that the President before he was elected, ran for the same office three times. So, would he win and then give his presidency to someone else to run for him?

“Again, the President has said he does not have northern agenda. Look, Nigerians needed change and they have got that by voting President Buhari to power. He has a national agenda because he was voted for by all Nigerians.

“So, it will be preposterous to accuse Mr. President of having pro-North agenda or that he is caged. Caged by whom? He is the President of Nigeria and should be seen and addressed as such.”

Buhari Makes N7.5m Available For Igbo Entrepreneurs

JUST IN!!! Buhari Makes N7.5m Available For Igbo Entrepreneurspmb igbo2

This much was disclosed at the Aba Urban Development
summit at the Enitona Hotels Aba by Senator Enyinnaya
Abaribe, senator representing Abia south senatorial zone in the
National Assembly.

President Muhammadu Buhari surely loves every Nigerians
regardless of their ethnicity.
According to Leadership, he informed that the federal
government was prepared to encourage local fabricators of
machine, tools, and spares.
Abaribe hailed the theme of the summit, “Extracting Practical
Solutions to Unlocking the Potentials of Aba” as being apt and
hoped that the recommendations will be adopted and
implemented.

Governor Okezie Ikpeazu while declaring the summit open,
stated that collective effort to return Aba, the commercial nerve
centre of the state to its former glory should be done as a
matter of urgency.

According to him, there was a time when every spare part that
could not be found any where in the country would be brought
to Aba and be fabricated locally, adding that some textiles
made in Aba were also exported to other parts of Africa and
international investors.

According to him, Aba remains one of the best places to invest
in and stated his readiness to provide investors the right
environment that would grow their businesses.
The Governor stated that Aba occupies a strategic position in
the economic development of not only Abia state but the South
East generally, adding that his dream is to develop Aba into a
mega city.
Dr Ikpeazu who said that a sea port and industrial parks are
part of the mega city of his dream which is realizable with the
cooperation of the business community.

While pledging to continue improving security in the state and
to do all that is possible to make Abia one of the safest places
in the country, the governor promised to enter into discussion
with Nigerpet on how to open up Aba to a modern city.
Ikpeazu also commended the residents of the town for their
cooperation and made a call for investors to establish 5 – Star
Hotels in Aba as a way of attracting investments into the state.
This news is a corroboration of a report which emerged last
week about the president showing love for the Igbos in spite of
widespread criticisms that he is only concerned about fellow
northerners.
