You’re running a confused government – Okogie blasts Buhari
Arch Bishop Olubunmi Okogie
Archbishop Emeritus, Catholic Archdiocese Lagos, Cardinal
Anthony Olubunmi Okogie, has accused President Muhammadu Buhari of
lopsided corruption war and acting contemptuously towards the judiciary
while millions of Nigerians were left to face unimaginable social
problems.
In a statement released by the Director of Social Communications of
the Diocese, Monsignor Gabriel Osu, Okogie asked Buhari to urgently
retool, refocus and aggressively lead by example on all fronts or risk
plunging Nigeria into state of despondency.
He said that Buhari must also aggressively face the fiscal and monetary problems we have head on, without letting the anti corruption drive look like a political distraction.
Okojie who is dissatisfied with Buhari’s style of governance said:
“A snail paced and disordered methodology in governance,
his apparent disdain for judicial authority and decisions, a lost today
found tomorrow 2016 budget debacle, and a rather rudderless and confused
Central Bank with an unclear monetary policy strategy (inevitably
increasing the economic uncertainties being faced by Nigerians), have
set alarm bells ringing in my mind and in the minds of many discerning
Nigerians.
“Indeed, his perceived discordant relationship with the
leadership of the Legislature has many naysayers chuckling and remarking
that President Buhari’s government is heading rather naturally, into
his comfort zone – a one man show.”
Okogie also noted that a lot of Nigerians are beginning to feel that
Buhari is fast transforming this nation into a police state where Mr.
President, the EFCC and DSS rule the day.
“What they say is given lurid headlines in the media,
and it seems to all that some of the defendants/accused persons are
being tried in the press with information conveniently slipping into the
hands of the press, presumably from the security agencies, even before
such people have been charged to court.”
He also frowned on the President’s refusal to heed court
pronouncements regarding the bail granted to the Director of Radio
Biafra, Nnamdi Kanu and former National Security Adviser, Col. Sambo
Dasuki.
“The Pro-Biafran activist, Nnmadi Kanu and the erstwhile
NSA Sambo Dasuki were granted bail by the courts but such bails were
disregarded by the security agents under Buhari’s watch.
“Unfortunately, democracy is difficult and this government must
realise that democracy pervasively coloured with impunity, arbitrariness
and high handedness, cannot be used to fight and correct the financial
impunity and reckless abandon of the previous administration, even if it
is more difficult to do so, the rule of law must be obeyed and be the
order of the day.”
PUBLISHER of the daily devotional booklet, Our Daily Manna, ODM,
Bishop Chris Kwakpovwe has cautioned Nigerians especially those who
believe that President Muhammadu Buhari is Nigeria’s messiah, pointing
out that God’s promised messiah is yet to come.
The cleric noted that Buhari is the forerunner of the messiah who
will bring some changes if only he maintained his integrity and do the
right things, just as he condemned recent agitations for a sovereign
state of Biafra, saying “Biafra is like thick cloud without water or
rain.” Buhari
The bishop, who is also the General Overseer of Manna Prayer Mountain, made these declarations at an interview
session ahead of his ministry’s annual world anointing service scheduled
for next Friday at the Tafawa Balewa Square TBS, Lagos. The theme of
this year’s programme is: “Jehovah Ebenezer – Lord wipe my tears”.
“President Buhari is not the messiah; he is only preparing the way
for the messiah who will eventually emerge. Buhari is like the John the
Baptist. As a politician, Buhari will bring about some changes if he
maintain his integrity and genuinely probe those he ought to probe,” he
stated.
According to the bishop, there are certain persons who assisted the
president to get to power who he would not be able to probe even when he
knows that they are not innocent.
“The messiah who will genuinely transform our country will emerge.
Buhari is not the messiah but we should be hopeful that one day, we will
sing a new song,” he stated.
Pledging his unwavering believe in the unity of Nigeria, the cleric
argued that the peace the country has enjoyed since after the Nigerian
Civil War should not be broken by digging up residues of hate for the
selfish interest of certain individuals seeking to balkanize the nation.
He therefore enjoined all the pro-Biafra protesters to tread with
caution, sheathe their swords and dialogue with constituted authorities
on issues that would bring about unity, peace and progress of the
country.
In his words: “There is nothing like Biafra. Biafra is like thick
cloud without water or rain. There will be no civil war, our brothers in
the South East will enjoy President Muhammadu Buhari. They should just
allow peace to reign. Whatever challenges, disagreements that may have
re-surfaced, are not beyond our collective ability to resolve.”
On the world anointing night, Bishop Kwakpovwe said the annual
programme has attracted millions since its inception 11 years ago,
adding that this year’s edition will mark the end of a 21-day fasting
and prayer, which began on January 9.
He said: “It is a night of 12 mantles and there will be series of
testimonies, instant healing from God because God is going to visit His
people. God has promised to wipe all tears and He asked me to tell the
people to bring 12 mantles and these mantles are prophetic in nature.”
B/Haram: Defence Minister, CAS go arms-shopping in Moscow
Efforts to consolidate on the ongoing war against terrorism got a
boost as the Defence Minister, Air Marshal Monsur Dan-Ali and Chief of
Air Staff, Air Vice Marshal Sadique Abubakar, yesterday night departed
for Russia to purchase vital military hardware needed to sustain the tempo of aggression against the terrorists.
Competent sources in the Department of State Service (DSS)
disclosed to our reporters that the duo left for Moscow to inspect the
war planes ordered by Nigeria in order to give the Boko Haram elements a
final push and ensure they never harassed any community once such an
area is cleared.
Specifically, the top brass officials left Abuja to purchase two
Mi-35 Attack Helicopters and 10 Mushak Super Trainers from Russia.
According to the source, which pleaded for anonymity, “this is
towards the commencement of re-equipping of the Nigerian military. This
time, government wants to ensure that Boko Haram insurgents never return
to any community once they are flushed out.
“The military will utilise these war planes to carry out
reconnaissance missions and rescue operations and also provide needed
aerial support to our troops. What happened in the last dispensation is
gradually being surmounted.
“Because of the current successes recorded against Boko Haram, they
have not just been degraded but the morale of the officers and men
fighting in the war theatre is very high”.
Nigeria suffered severe international military blockade since the
insurgents began their debilitating activities leading to the take-over
of more than 12 local government areas in the North-East geo-political
zone.
Also, efforts made by the military authorities during the President
Goodluck Jonathan administration to purchase needed ammunition were
frustrated, leading to sourcing of arms from the black market and the
consequent embarrassment to the country.
The sovereignty of Biafra is non – negotiable – Dr Nwoko
Dr Ibe Nwoko, a medical doctor and the Executive Director of Centre
for the Defence of Rights of Indigenous People and Culture, is a
supporter of the Biafra movement. In this chat with ANGELA NKWO-AKPOLU, he speaks on the Biafra struggle and sundry issues. Excerpts:
How would you react to some of the comments made during the recent Presidential Media Chat by President Muhamadu Buhari?
President Muhamadu Buhari was asking Igbos what they want after
appointing some Igbos into his cabinet, I want to categorically
emphasize that with due respect to him, he is missing the point and he’s
not reading the handwriting on the wall. If millions of Igbo youths are
calling for a separate nation of their own with tacit support from
thousands and millions of non-Igbo speaking people, and President Buhari
is still asking Igbos what they want, then it means there is a problem
in his understanding of events and times.
For a people to decide to have a separate nation of theirs, it
means that the milton’s law of motion is very much into play. It means
that the union or marriage called Nigeria is unworkable and rather
than ask Igbos what they want, I will advise him and Nigerians generally
to find a way of dissolving this unworkable marriage peacefully,
instead of creating anarchy where there should be none. People like
Buhari are implicitly creating enmity among the diverse ethnic groups,
who were forcefully joined together in this marriage and who have over
the years suffered the inhuman conditions associated with such
unworkable existence like Nigeria. However, the different components of
Nigeria can still cooperate where they find fit when Biafra exists as a
separate sovereign nation.
Recently, former President Olusegun Obasanjo emphatically stated
or pontificated that Biafra is dead. I wish to call his attention that
it was during his tenure as a civilian President that Biafra House was
established in Washington DC. He is very much aware that Biafra
government in exile was also proclaimed in 2007 after the establishment
of the Biafra charter. Thus, it will be foolhardy on his part to claim
that a project that has a government in exile representing it is a
failure or dead. Biafra was recognized by some nations and those nations
have not denied that recognition till date. Therefore, the idea of a
dead Biafra is a figment of his own imagination.
I want to state that those who can proclaim that the Biafra cause
is dead is the Biafra Provisional Government and Biafrans in general,
whose duty it is to work for the re-establishment of Biafra
sovereignty.
What is your take on the comments credited to Revd Fr. Ejike Mbaka
and Archbishop Chukwuma, the Anglican Bishop of Enugu Diocese on the
Biafran agitation?
With due respect to both of them, I wish to advise them that they
should limit their voice and verbal expressions to winning souls for God
and not to dabble into dirty Nigerian politics. But trying to use a
platform like Biafra to gain popularity in a disparaging manner shows
that there is some level of immaturity in their political understanding.
What do you think of the continued detention of Nnamdi Kanu despite meeting bail conditions?
I want to state that the young man called Nnamdi Kanu, who is the
Director of Radio Biafra London should be left alone, because he was
only speaking the obvious. He never carried a gun or formed an army,
didn’t destroy any public property; rather he was only trying to ginger
Biafrans to continue the struggle for Biafra, using technological
means. I remember that during the 2015 presidential election, the
current President Buhari formed an unregistered broadcasting outfit
through which his propaganda campaign of change was aired to millions of
people. His action of running a rogue broadcasting house was supposed
to be treason, because he incited the people against the then ruling
government. So is it now a case of the pot calling the kettle black. My
position is that Kanu should be left alone. Is he running away to
become a problem to Nigeria or live peacefully somewhere. What is the
fear of the Nigerian government over Kanu. See, the world is a global
village and no matter where he runs to, he can easily be traced.
What is your position on the different factions of Biafra?
Don’t worry over that because the struggle has gone beyond factions or groups.
What is your take on the death of some people during protests by Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB?
I will advise that the unnecessary killings of Igbos during
protests should be stopped both by those protesting and security
operatives. Those protesting should organize themselves well to avoid
being a public nuisance while those doing the killing should remember
that someday they will be called upon to give account of their actions
someday.
What are the demands on Biafra?
The government of Nigeria should stop creating unnecessary enmity
among the people when there should be none. It is very obvious to
everyone that this country is unworkable. Therefore, they should find
peaceful ways and means by which dismemberment of this country can be
done and those who want to continue as Nigerians can continue while
those who want to go can go and live as sovereign nation.
Let me advise the people in the geographical area called Biafra to
organize themselves to make the struggle easier to accomplish. The
struggle is not about arms struggle or brandishing of sophisticated
weapons. It is about asking for that which is their right of heritage.
See, referendums will be organized so that the people will have the
opportunity to express their views and beliefs concerning the Biafra
project. On the referendum, the United Nations will be part and parcel
of this organization. It will be genuine and will be seen as a genuine
referendum. Therefore people should jettison fears and question of
whether Biafra will be or not as the nation has come to stay.
How do you view the recent alleged sack of 4000 workers drawn from 19 parastatals in Imo State?
It is unworkable. Whatever reasons Governor Rochas Okorocha has is
best known to him. Civil Service is not a farm where you plant and
cultivate. Rather, it makes the society to be in motion, and for there
to be stability. Most of these benefits are not visible but they are
felt. By the way, where did he get money for the Imo carnival and other
wasteful expenses he incurred if there is no money? The Civil Service
rule must be followed to the later to lay off workers, not a radio
announcement. I call on the Nigerian Labour Congress (NLC), to look
into the matter and ensure that Okorocha does not become an Emperor in
the society.
Four People That Could Tear Nigeria Apart in 2016 (Must Read)
By: Ken Joshua
Nigeria is at a crucial point in her history as the new
administration of President Muhammadu Buhari battles head-long the
hydra-headed monster called corruption to restore sanity to her finances
in these trying times of the country’s economic life when oil, the main
revenue source, has practically lost all its value.
But there are four people that could send all efforts down the drain
this year through their controversial activities in parts of the
country. These people are, in their different ways, contributing to the
undermining of the unity of the country through their various actions
in different regions of the country. They are battling for the soul of
Nigeria with the central government at the expense of millions of
citizens who just want an opportunity to live their lives peacefully.
Nnamdi Kanu
Of all the people on this list, leading member of the group
Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) and founder of Biafra Radio in
London, Nnamdi Kanu is probably the most influential at the moment.
Kanu, who is already in the court for treason under the watchful eyes of
the Department of State Security (DSS), currently holds sway in
practically all of the South East region and has numerous followers
abroad.
The political activist is on this list of the dangerous ones to
Nigeria’s unity because he is trying to reenact the series of events
that led to the Civil War of 1967 to 1970 that nearly tore Nigeria
apart.
Kanu is calling for the people of the South East to mobilize and
fight for the creation of the state of Biafra. Kanu argues that the
Igbos are not properly catered for by the federal government.
To achieve this, he joined IPOB and founded the highly controversial
Biafra Radio at his London base, from where he broadcasted messages
which the government says are inciting and treasonous to all parts of
the South Eastern region and some parts of the South South. He was
arrested in 2015 while on one of his brief trips to Nigeria. He has
since remained in DSS custody while being arraigned in court.
In spite of being in jail, Kanu has continued to influence the
continuous call for the state of Biafra and currently, not a single week
goes by in the South East without a protest march in support of Kanu’s
claim. While at the moment the protesters have been peaceful and
recorded cases of deaths occurred only when security forces attacked
them, the agitation clearly is on the rise in the South East as Nigerian
leaders wonder what to do, and anything could worsen the situation.
Sheik Ibrahim El-Zakzaky
Leader of the Islamic Movement in Nigeria (IMN), Ibrahim El-Zakzaky
is another individual with his finger practically on the trigger.
El-Zakzaky was the one who introduced the Shia Muslim practice into the
country from Iran over 30 years ago. Before then, Nigeria had only Sunni
Muslims.
The Sheik controls a chunk of the Muslim population in the north and
is so influential that his religious procession or convoy has right of
way above anyone. He could not even be controlled by law enforcement
agencies. Residents of Kaduna State where El-Zakzaky has his abode told
stories of an oppressive theocracy imposed on them by the religious
leader.
“Every resident of Zaria is affected directly or indirectly by the
self-acclaimed powers and disregard for traffic rules by the Shi’ite
members in Zaria, especially when it comes to the use of public roads.
These Shi’ite members consider any other person as a second class
citizen who has no rights and privileges.
“These boys traumatised and brutally dealt with anybody while
El-Zakzaky was on transit. Complaints to police at different times did
not yield any result. I am from Gyallesu area, before now we lived just
like prisoners who have no right to live a life worthy of human living.
“When El-Zakzaky was in Gyallesu, the area became a home to all kinds
of criminals because his boys did not allow uniform personnel into the
area, no matter the level of crime committed. These boys used to search
anybody that is coming into the area irrespective of his or her status.
“Again, once they lock up the gates at night you have no right to go
out for whatever reason. The kind of loyalty these boys accorded
El-Zakzaky was second to none.
“They see him as a messiah. They neither have respect for
constitution nor any constituted authority. His instruction is the
final,” coordinator of Peace Initiative Forum, Mu’izzu Daruddeen
revealed in a statement.
Although at the moment, El-Zakzaky’s whereabouts are unknown after he
was bundled away by military men following a recent face-off between
Shiite Muslim members and men of the Nigerian Army which left hundreds
dead, his followers wait for his return patiently.
With no fewer than five of his sons allegedly killed in clashes
between the sect and the Army in the last three years and him
(El-Zakzaky) still missing, it is quite worrisome just to imagine what
this situation could degenerate into in the light of how insurgent
group, Boko Haram became violent after the extra judicial killing of
their leader, Mohammed Yusuf.
The fact that the Sheik has a direct link to Iran which is notorious
for sponsoring proxy wars and terrorist organizations on foreign soil
does not help matters.
Tompolo (Government Ekpemupolo)
A quick search of this code name on the internet reveals that the
occupation of Government Ekpemupolo (as he was born) is guerilla fighter
and it is doubtful if there is any informed Nigerian who does not know
Tompolo, the Niger Delta militant who once ruled the days (and nights)
of the South South region.
Before the Niger Delta Amnesty Programme, the name ‘Tompolo’ drove
fear into the hearts of many as he and his cohorts terrorized the creeks
of the South-South region, blowing up oil pipelines daily and creating a
thriving oil bunkering business from the ‘loot’ at the expense of
millions of Nigerians. The amnesty programme, which was orchestrated by
immediate past president Goodluck Jonathan when he was a vice president
and signed by the late president, Umar Musa Yar’Adua, made Tompolo a
very rich militant.
Through the programme, Tompolo and his ilk got mouth-watering
contracts from the government of Yar’Adua and then Jonathan that ran
into billions of naira. However, recent investigations by the Buhari
administration alleged that the contracts were ill-gotten gains that
have run the country’s treasury dry. But Tompolo has refused to see the
Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) or show up in court,
thereby forcing the presiding judge on is case at a Federal High Court
in Lagos, Justice Ibrahim Buba to issue a bench warrant for his arrest.
Crying ‘witch-hunt’, Tompolo has threatened war with the Federal
Government and vowed not to obey the court. He has already barricaded
himself in at the creeks and has allegedly begun blowing up pipelines
again to bring the government to its knees. Armed with more money than
ever to procure even more weapons than before, Tompolo could pose a real
danger to Nigeria quickly should the situation deteriorate any further
in the South South.
With oil now selling at around $27 per barrel and the naira
exchanging for over 300 to the dollar, the last thing Nigerians need is
for things to get out of hand again in that region.
President Muhammadu Buhari
Also making the list is none other than Nigeria’s number one citizen,
President Muhammadu Buhari. He is on this list only by virtue of the
fact that he is the leader of the country and his actions or inactions
could push Nigeria over the brink or save it from the impending disaster
these people earlier mentioned pose to our unity.
The president’s manner of handling these people could go a long way
to determine if the situation would be escalated into a national
catastrophe or doused, buried and forgotten.
Sincerely, the president is in the unenviable position of balancing
the tripartite of dispensing of justice, obeying the rule of law and
managing the expectations of the international community to which these
controversial figures have heavy links.
What this means is that while the president is trying to keep Nigeria
one (a task that must be done), he has to ensure that the rights of
these men are protected while also figuring out a way to take the wind
out the sail of their agitations which could get violent within the
twinkle of an eye. And he must do all these to the satisfaction of the
international community, some of whom have relationships with this men
and are already biased in their views.
For instance, Nnamdi Kanu is both Nigerian and British and the UK has
already expressed reservations over his detention. (Remember that his
Radio Biafra is based in London). El-Zakzaky has Iran’s backing because
he preaches their type of religion, Shia Islam. (Iran has already warned
the president to be careful on the issue of the Sheik). Tompolo has
links abroad through which he buys his weapons, the kinds that only
sovereign governments know how to get. And the president has to handle
them all, and perfectly too.
With how big some of these agitations are getting, the bubble could
bust soon and the president will be at the centre of it all – a very
unenviable position.
BREAKING!!! Benue South Rerun: Former Senate President Dumps PDP in Otukpo (Photos)
The biggest political tidal hit the Peoples Democratic Party in Benue
State, Saturday as its big wigs officially announced their defection to
the All Progressives Congress.
Among those who pitched their tents with the ruling APC include,
immediate past deputy governor of Benue State, Chief Steve Lawani,
former military governor, ex-senate president, Ameh Ebute, Chris Abutu
Garuba, former guber aspirants in Benue State, Ada Chenge, Sam Ode,
Jerry Agada, Mike Onoja and host of others.
No fewer than 1,000 members of the PDP also decamped
to APC at the official flag off Dan onjeh, the senatorial candidate of
the APC, Senator Dan Onjeh. Speaking on behalf of the decampees, Ameh
Ebute said they wanted to be part of the gospel of change in the
nation.
According to him, “you all could recall that we were part of the
people that brought PDP to power but along the line, the party lost its
focus. We don’t want to be identified with people who ruined the nation,
hence our reason to join this change train.
“On behalf of my colleagues, we officially pledge our loyalty to President Muhammdu Buhari-led government, he added.
