Former Man United defender Vidic retires
Former Manchester United defender Nemanja Vidic
announced his retirement from football on Friday at
the age of 34.
Vidic won five Premier League titles and the 2007-08
Champions League in an eight-year spell at Old
Trafford, but conceded injuries had forced him to call
time on his career.
The Serb was granted his release from Inter Milan
earlier this month after an injury-plagued 18-month
stint in Italy.
“The time has come for me to hang up my boots,”
Vidic said in a statement on United’s website. “The
injuries I have had in the last few years have taken
their toll.
“I would like to thank all the players I have played
with, all the managers and staff I have worked with,
and say a big ‘thank you’ to the fans for their
support over the years.”
Vidic joined United from Spartak Moscow in January
2006 and formed a formidable centre-back
partnership with Rio Ferdinand as United lifted three
straight Premier League titles from 2007-09.
He was also part of the United side that beat Chelsea
6-5 on penalties to claim their third European crown
in Moscow, with the Red Devils again crowned
English champions in 2010-11 and 2012-13.
Vidic left Old Trafford to join Inter in July 2014,
playing 28 times for the Serie A side, but after
undergoing a hernia operation in August he failed to
make a single appearance this season.

Obasanjo writes Saraki, Dogara, accuses NASS members of corruption, greed, impunity
lambasted members of both arms of the National Assembly,
accusing them of greed, impunity and corruption.
Obasanjo, whose accusation was contained in a January
13, 2016, letter addressed to the Senate President, Bukola
Saraki, and speaker of the House of Representatives,
Yakubu Dogara, lamented that the lawmakers had failed to
show understanding, in view of the present economic
situation in the country, caused by a crash in the price of
crude oil in the international market.
Saraki, Dogara speak
While Senate President, Bukola Saraki, said he would react
to the former President in a formal manner, the House of
Representatives Speaker said it would not like to join
issues with him.
Obasanjo said it was regrettable that the National Assembly
had not shown enough courage to publish its recurrent
budget for 2000, 2005, 2010 and 2015, stressing the need
for the lawmakers to be transparent in their financial
dealings.
Obasanjo said: ‘’On a few occasions in the past, both in and
out of office as the President of Nigeria, I have agonised on
certain issues within the arms of government at the national
level and among the tiers of government as well.
‘’Not least, I have reflected and expressed, outspokenly at
times, my views on the practice in the National Assembly
which detracts from distinguishedness and honourability
because it is shrouded in opaqueness and absolute lack of
transparency and could not be regarded as normal, good
and decent practice in a democracy that is supposed to be
exemplary. I am, of course, referring to the issue of
budgets and finances of the National Assembly.
‘’The present economic situation that the country has found
itself in is the climax of the steady erosion of good financial
and economic management which grew from bad to worse
in the last six years or so.
‘’The executive and the
legislative arms of
government must accept
and share responsibility in
this regard. And if there will
be a redress of the situation
as early as possible, the
two arms must also bear
the responsibility
proportionally.
‘’The two arms ran the
affairs of the country
unmindful of the rainy day.
The rainy day is now here.
It would not work that the
two arms should stand side
by side with one arm pulling
and without the support of
the other one for good and
efficient management of the
economy.
‘’The purpose of election
into the Legislative
Assembly particularly at the
national level is to give
service to the nation and
not for the personal service
and interest of members at
the expense of the nation
which seemed to have been
the mentality, psychology,
mindset and practice within
the National Assembly
since the beginning of this present democratic dispensation.
Where is patriotism? Where is commitment? Where is
service?
Good governace and transparency
‘’The beginning of good governance which is the
responsibility of all arms and all the tiers of government is
openness and transparency.
‘’It does not matter what else we try to do, as long as one
arm of government shrouds its financial administration and
management in opaqueness and practices rife with
corruption, only very little, if anything at all, can be
achieved in putting Nigeria on the path of sustainable and
enduring democratic system, development and progress.
Governance without transparency will be a mockery of
democracy.
‘’Let us be more direct and specific so that action can be
taken where it is urgently necessary. A situation where our
national budget was predicated on $38 per barrel of oil with
estimated 2 million barrels per day and before the budget
was presented, the price of oil had gone down to $34 per
barrel and now hovering around $30 and we have no
assurance of producing 2 million barrels and if we can, we
have no assurance of finding market for it, definitely calls
for caution.
‘’If production and price projected in the budget stand, we
would have to borrow almost one third of the 6 trillion naira
budget. Now beginning with the reality of the budget, there
is need for sober reflection and sacrifice with innovation at
the level of executive and legislative arms of government.
‘’The soberness, the sacrifice and seriousness must be
patient and apparent. It must not be seen and said that
those who, as leaders, call for sacrifice from the citizenry
are living in obscene opulence.
‘’It will not only be insensitive but callously so. It would
seem that it is becoming a culture that election into the
legislative arm of government at the national level in
particular is a licence for financial misconduct and that
should not be.
NASS and new image
‘’The National Assembly now has a unique opportunity of
presenting a new image of itself. It will help to strengthen,
deepen, widen and sustain our democracy. By our
Constitution, the Revenue Mobilisation, Allocation and
Fiscal Commission is charged with the responsibility of
fixing emoluments of the three arms of government:
executive, legislature and judiciary.
‘’Mr. President of the Senate and Hon. Speaker of the House,
you know that your emolument which the Commission had
recommended for you takes care of all your legitimate
requirements: basic salary, car, housing, staff, constituency
allowance.
‘’Although the constituency allowance is paid to all
members of the National Assembly, many of them have no
constituency offices which the allowance is partly meant to
cater for. And yet other allowances and payments have
been added by the National Assembly for the National
Assembly members’ emoluments. Surely, strictly speaking,
it is unconstitutional.
‘’The National Assembly should have the courage to publish
its recurrent budgets for the years 2000, 2005, 2010 and
2015. That is what transparency demands. With the number
of legislators not changing, comparison can be made.
‘’Comparisons in emoluments can also be made with
countries like Ghana, Kenya, Senegal and even Malaysia
and Indonesia who are richer and more developed than we
are.
‘’The budget is a proposal and only an estimate of income
and expenditure. Where income is inadequate, expenditure
will not be made. While in government, I was threatened
with impeachment by the members of the National
Assembly for not releasing some money they had
appropriated for themselves which were odious and for
which there were no incomes to support.
‘’The recent issue of cars for legislators would fall into the
same category. Whatever name it is disguised as, it is
unnecessary and insensitive. A pool of a few cars for each
Chamber will suffice for any Committee Chairman or
members for any specific duty.
‘’The waste that has gone into cars, furniture, housing
renovation in the past was mind-boggling and these were
veritable sources of waste and corruption. That was why
they were abolished. Bringing them back is inimical to the
interest of Nigeria and Nigerians.
‘’It will be interesting if the National Assembly will be
honourable enough and begin the process of transparency,
responsibility and realism by publishing its recurrent
budgets for 2016 as it should normally be done.’’
Saraki, Dogara, others react
Reacting to the allegation, the Senate President, Bukola
Saraki, said he was still studying the letter and would
formally write a reply to the former President in no time.
Speaking through his Special Adviser, Media and
Publicity,Yusuph Olaniyonu, Saraki acknowledged that he
had received the letter and that he would formally
communicate the former President.
But Senate spokesman, Aliyu Sabi, claimed that he was not
aware of the said letter to the Senate President, stressing
that if the letter was sent, it would be communicated to
senators through the Senate President.
“As far as I am concerned, I am not aware of any letter to
the Senate President from the former president,so I cannot
comment on what I am not aware of.
“We have a constitution on this country and any
communication to the National Assembly must follow the
laid-down rules, so like I said, when I am informed of the
said letter, I can now speak,” he told Vanguard.
On its part, the House of Representatives said it would not
like to join issues with the former President.
Chairman of the House Committee on Media and Public
Affairs, Abdulrasak Namdas, said: “I don’t want to join
issues with the former President, what is before us now is
the 2016 budget which we are committed to work on.”
However, a member of the House, Chike Okafor, APC, Imo,
said the former President’s letter was an expression of his
lost bid to extend his tenure about ten years ago.
According to him, the former president appears not to have
forgiven the National Assembly for cutting short his
aspiration.

RONALDO: MESSI OWES ME MONEY FOR THE SERVICE I RENDERED TO HIM
Real Madrid star Cristiano Ronaldo affirmed that he now
enjoys a better relationship with Lionel Messi, while
pointing out that he is still awaiting payment for
translation services at the Ballon d'Or.
The pair have long been rivals for football's most
coveted individual prizes, with either Messi or Ronaldo
taking the last eight Ballon d'Or trophies.
But speaking after Madrid's 5-1 demolition of Sporting
Gijon, the Portuguese striker insisted that any supposed
tensions with the Barcelona man had thawed.
"We have become closer, we have always enjoyed a
good relationship but perhaps in the last few years it
has become a little closer," he told reporters at the
Bernabeu.
Messi and Ronaldo shared the stage alongside Neymar
at the Ballon d'Or presentation ceremony in Zurich, and
the former Manchester United revealed that he had come
to the Barcelona pair's rescue.
"When we were up there on the stage neither Messi nor
Neymar speaks English, and I was their translator," he
laughed.
"I spoke with them later and told them not to forget to
pay me later for the translation!"

Naira appreciates to N296/$
LAGOS — The Naira, yesterday, appreciated to N296 per
dollar in the parallel market due to expectation that the
Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) will sell autonomous dollar
to bureaux de change this week.
Vanguard’s survey of major cities reveals that in Lagos the
Naira appreciated by N4 as the parallel market exchange
rate dropped from N300 per dollar on Friday to N296 at the
close of business yesterday.
In Abuja, the Naira appreciated by N5 as the parallel market
rate fell to N295 from N300, while in Kano, the Naira gained
N2 as the parallel market exchange rate dropped to N298
from N300.
Bureaux de change sources, who confirmed this
development to Vanguard, explained that the appreciation
was driven by expectation of inflow from the CBN.
President, Association of Bureaux de Change Operators of
Nigeria (ABCON), Alhaji Aminu Gwadabe, confirmed to
Vanguard that while the expectation that CBN will start
selling autonomous dollars to BDCs made the parallel
market rate to fall to as low as N285 per dollar in the
afternoon, the rate, however, rose to N295 towards the end
of the day when expectation did not materialise.
Chief Executive Officer, H. J. Trust BDC also confirmed this
development, saying: “There was rumour that the CBN will
start selling to us, so nobody was willing to buy dollars, and
this forced the rate to crash. But the rate went up again
towards the end of the day.”
Last Friday, the CBN had pledged to explore the option of
selling autonomous dollars sourced from oil firms to BDCs
so as to address the sharp and stead depreciation of the
Naira in the parallel market.
This was an outcome of a meeting held, yesterday, between
the management of the CBN led by the Governor, Mr.
Godwin Emefiele and the Executive Council of Association of
Bureaux de Change Operators of Nigeria.
On Monday, the CBN stopped the direct sale of dollars to
BDCs, a situation which triggered N35 depreciation of the
Naira in the parallel market as the exchange rate in the
market moved from N280 per dollar on Monday to N305 on
Wednesday.
Miffed by this situation, the CBN Governor invited ABCON
Executive Council to a meeting in Lagos to discuss ways to
arrest the Naira depreciation in the market.
Confirming this development to Vanguard, ABCON
President, Gwadabe, said the association made it clear to
the CBN that the Naira depreciation was due to scarcity of
dollars, which was aggravated by the decision to stop
selling dollars to BDCs.
Said he: “We made it clear that the situation will persist
except there is some form of intervention in the market. We
also discussed how BDCs could source dollars from
autonomous sources.
“In the end, the CBN Governor said that while the apex bank
cannot resume sale of dollars from the nation’s external
reserve to BDCs, it will consider selling dollars sourced
from autonomous sources to them.
“The governor said the apex bank would source
autonomous dollars from oil firms for direct sale to BDCs so
as to ease the demand pressure in the parallel market.
“The modalities, however, will be worked out and
announced next week. We hope that this would help to calm
the market and stabilise the exchange rate of the Naira in
the parallel market.”

Wizkid Reportedly Smashes Bottle On Dammy Krane's Head At Nightclub (Snapshots)
According to trending reports on twitter, Wizkid and Dammy
Krane engaged in a physical fight last night at Quilox
nightclub.He allegedly smashed a bottle on Dammy Krane's
head..
This comes after Dammy Krane apologized for bashing him
on twitter, but still accused him of stealing his latest hit
"Baba nla"and slangs like Pull over,sleeping on a bicycle..
Here’s how it all started.
Last night, Super Eagles striker Obafemi Martins held an
exclusive ‘All Black Party’ at Club Quilox on Victoria Island,
Lagos and it was star-studded.
Pop stars like Tekno, Timaya, 2face Idibia, Sexy Steel,
Skuki, Special Ed and many more were all in attendance.
Apparently Dammy Krane was in the club as well.
Eye witnesses tell Talk of the moment that Dammy Krane got to the
club a lot earlier before Wizkid came in around 4am.
Another source told us, ‘When Wizkid enterted the club, it
seemed he saw Dammy Krane but didn’t go to meet him,
then about 15 minutes later, it seemed Dammy was
showing him some attitude, then Wizkid went to meet him.
The next thing we saw everywhere had scattered. Wizkid
broke a bottle on his head before bouncers separated
them’.
Multiple eye witnesses say Wizkid clearly attacked first
before bouncers tried to separate them. Then the club owner
Shina Peller waded into the fight as well.
It is not clear if Dammy Krane was injured.
‘He took them to his office to settle it’, a guest told us.
We learn that both parties then came downstairs, back to
the club and acted as if nothing happened.

10 Shocking Nigerian music videos in recent times
Music videos are mediums for artistes to showcase their
looks, dance steps and tell a story of their songs. In the
Nigerian music landscape, it has grown beyond that into a
medium for display of gangsterism, sex and violence. Our
videos have become bad deal for our impressionable youths
who tend to copy most of what they see on TV and the
internet. And the Nigerian cinematographers are pushing
the limits and becoming more expressive in their shots.
These days, caution has been thrown into the wind and
their new form of entertainment is display of boobs, butt or
bust cleavage, naked laps and other subtle erotic parts of
the body. Studies have shown a connection between music
videos and violent behavior of adolescents.The study also
shows a relationship between the imagery displayed in
videos and inappropriate sexual behaviours. In no particular
order, we chronicle 10 Nigerian music videos that will send
shock waves down your spine.
Reminisce –Skilashi 2015
Just like his previous sensual video, Tesojue, Reminisce
continues to push the limits as far as releasing shocking
videos is concerned.The Alaga Ibile crooner makes use of
vulgar lyrics and obscene images in this video.The visuals
are filled with different scenes where the video vixens can
be seen dancing provocatively and occasionally revealing
their bums.
In other words, this video falls into the category of a soft
porn. Lately, Reminisce has been releasing sexually
charged videos without thinking of the harmful effects it will
have on the younger generation. The video is directed by
Frizzle and Bizzle Films.
Olamide –Falila Ketan 2015
What
message can be passed in a music video where bums are
being shaken in most of the scenes? This is the question
that comes to mind when you watch Olamide’s Falila Ketan.
All you can see in the video is skimpily dressed ladies
twerking their God-given bums. It’s not the kind of video
you want to watch in the presence of your children, if you
don’t want to answer inquisitive questions.The video is
directed by Unlimited L.A.
Niyola-Love to love you – 2014
Before the video of this song was released, the beautiful
RnB singer, Niyola, posted a picture from the video shoot
with her upper body laid bare, covering her breasts with her
arms.
This generated various negative comments on the social
media. Love to love you is a love song with sexual
connotations, provocative dance steps and erotic steamy
scenes.
The video was shot in New York and shows how Niyola
loves to show love to her man. The video is directed by
Kemi Adetiba.
Wizkid- Expensive Shit– 2015
Though this song has an amazing Afrobeat feel, it still goes
on to unveil some shocking raunchy scenes and suggestive
dance styles. The visuals were shot in South Africa and
capture Wizkid in the midst of skimpily dressed video
vixens.Towards the end of the video,Wizkid cuddles one of
the video vixens, puts her in a compromising provocative
posture, as though he is ready to take her to the ‘Next
level’. The video is directed by Sesan.
Seyi Shay-Crazy 2014
Seyi Shay’s vocal dexterity is in no doubt, but same cannot
be said of this music video which has many question marks
over it. The visuals have various sexual scenes blended
with provocative dance steps. In a particular scene, Wizkid
is spotted in a romantic position with Seyi Shay.
This short scene has Seyi Shay seizing Wizzy’s crotch. In
another scene, Seyi Shay can be seen twerking on Wizkid.
The video is directed by Meji Alabi.
Mr2kay –Bad girl special – 2015 (featuring Cynthia Morgan
and Seyi Shay)
Weeks before the video was officially released, the behind-
the-scenes pictures were unveiled to the public. A
particular steamy picture of Mr2kay and Cynthia Morgan
went viral, getting everyone thinking there could be more
between the duo than just music. For starters, the video
begins with Cynthia Morgan seductively walking towards
Mr2kay in a revealing top.
In this scene, the German juice sensation shows off her
curves and cleavage, affirming that she is a ‘Bad’ girl for
real. Another notable part in the video is a scene where the
duo are in the kitchen caressing each other with Cynthia
taking a sniff of her cigarette. There was a time when
Nigerian music videos had a message and brilliant
concepts, it seems those days are long gone. The video is
directed by Clarence Peters.
Davido –Fans Mi – 2015
What
comes to mind when you see guns, lots of cash on a table
and ladies dressed seductively in a music video? This
image portrays violence, gangsterism and sensuality.
Davido’s new video depicts these negative vices in no
small way. In the visuals, the young popstar tries to seal a
deal to supply cocaine, while the leader of the gang hands
him stacks of dollars for the business transaction. He goes
back to his house where he is welcomed by scantily
dressed ladies arranging the cocaine.
If music videos are meant to be a vehicle to pass positive
messages for the good of the coming generation, this video

Cynthia Morgan-German Juice 2015
The title says it all. German Juice connotes buttocks. The
ladies in this video swings it from the beginning to the end.
It was shot on a sunny and summer-themed location.
Cynthia Morgan sings on a groovy dancehall beat while the
ladies were just shaking their big bums. The video is poor
in concept and lacks the needed depth that should be
displayed in a music video. The video is directed by
Clarence Peters and Jude Okoye.
Skuki-Silifa 2014
This
video
is
reminiscent of Timaya’s Shake your bum bum where
‘White’ video vixens were shaking their assets. Shot
sometime last year, the song’s lyrics is empty and the video
has no storyline. The only shocking aspect of the visuals is
the brazen manner the video vixens were shaking their
buttocks. Little wonder, it was tagged ‘Not suitable for
work’(NSFW).
Flavour-Ololufe (Featuring Chidinma) 2015
Flavour made headlines years back when he passionately
kissed Tiwa Savage in the video of the song ‘Onyi remix’. It
generated lots of controversy and sparked dating rumours
been these two hit makers. This is 2015, and the suave
singer is back to his kissing antics.
This time his partner in crime is the petite Chidinma Ekile
and the video is ‘Ololufe’. Since the video hit the public
domain, she has been heavily condemned. Though,
Chidinma has revealed that she is not dating Flavour, her
fans are yet to recover from the shock of seeing her engage
in such an offensive act. The video is directed by Godfather
productions.
looks, dance steps and tell a story of their songs. In the
Nigerian music landscape, it has grown beyond that into a
medium for display of gangsterism, sex and violence. Our
videos have become bad deal for our impressionable youths
who tend to copy most of what they see on TV and the
internet. And the Nigerian cinematographers are pushing
the limits and becoming more expressive in their shots.
These days, caution has been thrown into the wind and
their new form of entertainment is display of boobs, butt or
bust cleavage, naked laps and other subtle erotic parts of
the body. Studies have shown a connection between music
videos and violent behavior of adolescents.The study also
shows a relationship between the imagery displayed in
videos and inappropriate sexual behaviours. In no particular
order, we chronicle 10 Nigerian music videos that will send
shock waves down your spine.
Reminisce –Skilashi 2015
Just like his previous sensual video, Tesojue, Reminisce
continues to push the limits as far as releasing shocking
videos is concerned.The Alaga Ibile crooner makes use of
vulgar lyrics and obscene images in this video.The visuals
are filled with different scenes where the video vixens can
be seen dancing provocatively and occasionally revealing
their bums.
In other words, this video falls into the category of a soft
porn. Lately, Reminisce has been releasing sexually
charged videos without thinking of the harmful effects it will
have on the younger generation. The video is directed by
Frizzle and Bizzle Films.
Olamide –Falila Ketan 2015
What
message can be passed in a music video where bums are
being shaken in most of the scenes? This is the question
that comes to mind when you watch Olamide’s Falila Ketan.
All you can see in the video is skimpily dressed ladies
twerking their God-given bums. It’s not the kind of video
you want to watch in the presence of your children, if you
don’t want to answer inquisitive questions.The video is
directed by Unlimited L.A.
Niyola-Love to love you – 2014
Before the video of this song was released, the beautiful
RnB singer, Niyola, posted a picture from the video shoot
with her upper body laid bare, covering her breasts with her
arms.
This generated various negative comments on the social
media. Love to love you is a love song with sexual
connotations, provocative dance steps and erotic steamy
scenes.
The video was shot in New York and shows how Niyola
loves to show love to her man. The video is directed by
Kemi Adetiba.
Wizkid- Expensive Shit– 2015
Though this song has an amazing Afrobeat feel, it still goes
on to unveil some shocking raunchy scenes and suggestive
dance styles. The visuals were shot in South Africa and
capture Wizkid in the midst of skimpily dressed video
vixens.Towards the end of the video,Wizkid cuddles one of
the video vixens, puts her in a compromising provocative
posture, as though he is ready to take her to the ‘Next
level’. The video is directed by Sesan.
Seyi Shay-Crazy 2014
Seyi Shay’s vocal dexterity is in no doubt, but same cannot
be said of this music video which has many question marks
over it. The visuals have various sexual scenes blended
with provocative dance steps. In a particular scene, Wizkid
is spotted in a romantic position with Seyi Shay.
This short scene has Seyi Shay seizing Wizzy’s crotch. In
another scene, Seyi Shay can be seen twerking on Wizkid.
The video is directed by Meji Alabi.
Mr2kay –Bad girl special – 2015 (featuring Cynthia Morgan
and Seyi Shay)
Weeks before the video was officially released, the behind-
the-scenes pictures were unveiled to the public. A
particular steamy picture of Mr2kay and Cynthia Morgan
went viral, getting everyone thinking there could be more
between the duo than just music. For starters, the video
begins with Cynthia Morgan seductively walking towards
Mr2kay in a revealing top.
In this scene, the German juice sensation shows off her
curves and cleavage, affirming that she is a ‘Bad’ girl for
real. Another notable part in the video is a scene where the
duo are in the kitchen caressing each other with Cynthia
taking a sniff of her cigarette. There was a time when
Nigerian music videos had a message and brilliant
concepts, it seems those days are long gone. The video is
directed by Clarence Peters.
Davido –Fans Mi – 2015
What
comes to mind when you see guns, lots of cash on a table
and ladies dressed seductively in a music video? This
image portrays violence, gangsterism and sensuality.
Davido’s new video depicts these negative vices in no
small way. In the visuals, the young popstar tries to seal a

Presidency distances self from missing 2016 budget
As outrage continued to trail the reportedly missing 2016
Budget presented to the joint session of the National
Assembly on Tuesday, December 22, 2015, by President
Muhammadu Buhari, the Presidency, on Tuesday night,
distanced itself from the missing budget.
Disturbed by the raging enquiries posed by Nigerian social
media users, following the news of the missing
budget, Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media
and Publicity, Malam Garba Shehu, defended the
Presidency, noting that President Buhari has not withdrawn
the budget as speculated in the media.
Shehu in a series of tweets via his Twitter handle
@GarShehu said: “Enquiries about the budget: Nobody
except the President can withdraw the budget. As far as we
know, he hasn’t done that.
“The copies in their hundreds have been delivered to both
chambers of the National Assembly.
“By tradition, once the budget is submitted, it ceases to be
our property.
“Enquiries as to where it is should be directed to the
appropriate quarters,” he said.

Ejine Okoroafor shames Nicki Minaj’s cleavage
I am probably going to have my butt kicked for doing this
piece, but hey, who can resist a beautiful woman like Ejine
Okoroafor with such alluring spectacles of life pouring out of
her chest.
The Nollywood actress is not one who loves to flaunt her
God-given artwork of mammary, in fact, you can never
catch her flaunting them, but I had to steal this picture of
her off her Blackberry display picture and you wouldn’t
exactly call it ‘flaunting of asset’ because the actress was
having a relaxing time by the pool side in the most natural
way anyone would by the pool.
When they talk of Nigeria’s queen of boobs, the names like
Cossy Orjiakor, Ronke Oshodi Oke, Foluke Daramola and
others come to mind, forgetting there are a couple like Ejine
around who would have all these screen stars feel like
circus freaks at a beauty pageant.
Maybe she could have hugged all the limelight for her gift
but this girl hates to have anyone drooling over her
cleavage – and I may still have my butt kicked for doing
this!
In this world of quick fix we know what trouble most women
go through to have their boobs looking like something that
could reach out and give you a slap, but not this alluring
Ejine. Hers is natural and seems to have something of
bloodline about it.
“ Everybody in my family has big boobs. It is something that
runs in the family. From my mum to my sisters, everyone is
blessed” she once told me. Aren’t we safe to say if the
Americans have Nicki Minaj, we have Ejine Okoroafor and
she doesn’t have a suspicion of a surgical trick hanging
over her.
She may not have Nicki’s fame or fortune but she’s all
natural while Nicki has questions to answer when it comes
to tampering with gifts of nature. Even as it is, who would
you say have a better cleavage, fake or real? Nicky or Ejine?
Why we’ve not arrested Jonathan — EFCC boss
ABUJA—The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission,
EFCC explained, yesterday, why it has not arrested former
President Goodluck Jonathan following startling revelations
on how the former National Security Adviser, NSA, Col
Sambo Dasuki (retd) allegedly disbursed over $2.1 billion
meant for arms purchase to various individuals.
Alarmed by the revelations, the National leadership of the
Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, has, however, asked Dr
Jonathan to speak out.
This came as the anti-graft commission disclosed that one
of the beneficiaries, the former Military Administrator of
Kaduna State, Mr. Jafaru Isah had returned N100m out of
the N170m he collected and was given administrative bail
to source for the balance of N70m.
Another beneficiary, the former Secretary to the Government
of the Federation and leader of the Social Democratic Party,
SDP, Chief Olu Falae however insisted that he would not
refund the N100 million he collected from Chief Tony
Anenih, which was said to have come from Dasuki.
Facts have also emerged how former Chairman of Board of
Trustees, BoT of the PDP, Chief Tony Anenih and Chief Olu
Falae entered into a working relationship prior to the 2015
presidential election.
Explaining why the former president has not been arrested
while speaking with online news publishers yesterday, in
Lagos, the EFCC boss, Mr Ibrahim Magu said that no
document has been traced to Jonathan giving any approval
for the disbursement of the money for any purpose other
than arms purchase.
He said that all those questioned so far in connection with
the money were people who disbursed or collected it for
reasons other than the purchase of arms and ammunition.
“All approvals by former president Jonathan did not
mention that it was for political purposes.
All the memos approved by him were for the purchase of
arms,” he said.
Speaking about Olisa Metuh, the EFCC boss revealed that
the national publicity secretary of the Peoples Democratic
Party said he would rather go on hunger strike than refund
the N400 million he allegedly collected from Dasuki.
Maga also said that Patrick Akpobolokemi, a former boss of
Nigerian Maritime Administration and Safety Agency, was
recently re-arrested after new evidences of alleged
embezzlement of N34.5 billion and another N600 million
were linked to him.
The EFCC chairman stressed that the war against graft was
not selective and assured Nigerians that his agency was not
teleguided in the ongoing anti-corruption fight.
According to PDP, since former President Jonathan was still
alive, he should come out and explain to Nigerians whether
he authorized his former National Security Adviser to
distribute money meant to fight Boko Haram into his
campaign.
Addressing Journalists yesterday in Abuja, PDP Deputy
National Publicity Secretary Abdullahi Jalo said, Goodluck
Ebele Jonathan is alive, he should clarify whether he asked
the National Security Adviser to distribute money meant to
fight Boko Haram into his campaign.
According to Jalo, “Jonathan is alive, he should clarify
whether he asked the National Security Adviser to distribute
money meant to fight Boko Haram into his campaign. What
is important for one to know is that former President
Goodluck Jonathan is alive. Has he ever said go and take
the money for arms meant for Boko Haram to campaign for
me? Is there anytime that Jonathan asked for anything from
either Dasuki to go and distribute this money meant for
fighting Boko Haram for his campaign?
“As you all know, no single kobo will be spent by the federal
government or former President Goodluck Jonathan without
the Act of the National Assembly. Some people however
decided to divert this money to something else.
“Darkness has now come to light, we have now discovered
that it is not only PDP members who collected the money
but those in APGA collected, Falae collected, Tanko Yakasai
collected. They all collected the money under the guise that
they are campaigning for Goodluck Jonathan.
“It is known to us that money meant for campaign are given
to the national chairmen of various political parties. We had
a dinner in the banquet hall where some billions were
collected meant for campaign for Jonathan. That money
was meant for campaign. Dangote, Otedola and others
donated. So why would somebody tell us that you are
taking money meant to fight Boko Haram, which is from an
Act of the National Assembly. Any money appropriated is
coming from consolidated account of the federal
government and its usage must be meant for that”.
The PDP which also disowned the embattled National
Publicity Secretary, Chief Olisa Metuh who has remained
detained by the officials of the Economic and Financial
Crimes Commission, EFCC, said that as a party, it will not
fight for his bail and others who have been alleged to be
involved in the arms deal scam because they did that on
personal levels and not on the platform of the party.
According to Jalo, “the issue of bail does not have anything
to do with PDP. Let them tell us how much they have
brought to PDP, to the national chairman and the money
used for campaign, we want to know from them.
“PDP has nothing to do with individuals that used their
companies to get money. PDP has no company, it is a
political platform. There is PDP account and they did not
even inform the PDP that they had received this money, they
just went and slept with their families eating eggs and rice.”
Jalo who noted that public should not misconstrue the
unfolding issues with that of the PDP, said that individuals
that were presently involved, accessed public funds through
their various private companies and not the PDP even
though they were members of the party. He added that the
Arms fund were an appropriation of the National Assembly
to which the former President and Dasuki Sambo were
aware of and were aware of the limit of using the funds
other than what it was meant for.
The PDP deputy National Publicity Secretary said, “There
are a lot of outcries against our members that have been
taken to court because they received money from what we
called Dasukigate or arms deal.
“The former acting National Chairman, Dr. Bello Haliru, who
was taken to court is now on bail, he has a company Pam
Proper and Property limited, he was given N600 million
under a registered company of Corporate Affairs
Commission, you can find out what the contract was meant
for. Has he done what he was asked to do with the N600
million?
“Olisa Metuh’s company is Destral investment limited, he
was given a job of N400 million. What has that got to do
with PDP, you can bear me witness, when Olisa was
accusing Lai Mohammed that he collected a contract from
one of the states in the West, even Lai Mohammed took him
to court, so now the hunter is now the hunted. Lai’s case
has not been proved, Olisa is under investigation.
“Let us put the record straight. We want anyone of these
people that have been accused whether in PDP, APGA or
APC to come out and tell us that the money they collected,
was given to PDP or their party. When he was given this
money was he given the money to go and campaign for
Jonathan, if yes let him show us the paper, let him present
an evidence, but whoever was given this money should
know that this money was not meant for that, it was meant
for arms purchase.
“Thank God the party has kept quiet deliberately, maybe,
because some have benefited. If we cannot clean the party
now, the future is going to be bleak.
“If the Legal Adviser of PDP, rushes to go and bail out Olisa
Metuh now he is doing the wrong thing, because he has to
separate the party and Olisa as an individual.
Go, bring balance of N170m cash traced to you, EFCC tells
Jafaru Isah
Meanwhile, the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission
confirmed on Monday that it had retrieved N100 million out
of the N170 million traced to the account of the former
Military Administrator of Kaduna State, Mr. Jafaru Isah.
The Chairman of the EFCC, Mr. Ibrahim Magu, confirmed the
retrieval of the cash from Isah, adding that it was the partial
refund that informed his administrative bail to enable him to
go and source for the balance.
Magu, who made the disclosure in response to criticism that
he quickly released the APC chieftain and close associate of
President Buhari while holding onto Olisa Metuh of the
opposition PDP, said that the refund was not a guaranty that
the suspect would not be prosecuted for receiving public
funds illegally.
Jafaru Isah
There has been a furore over the ‘sudden’ release of Isah
from EFCC custody while other suspects duly granted bail
by the courts, are still being held by the anti-graft agency.
The opposition PDP believes its key figures, who received
huge cash from the office of the National Security Adviser
and are being detained by the EFCC, are being persecuted
notwithstanding their admission that they indeed, received
the said cash for election purposes.
But in the case of Jafaru Isah, the amount of N170 million
traced to him is said to have been paid by the embattled ex-
NSA, Sambo Dasuki, to enable him to acquire a property in
Kano State for him.
The deal, it was gathered did not go through, as a member
of the Jonathan cabinet paid a higher amount of money for
the same building which Isah was billed to buy for Dasuki.
Isah, who was arrested by the EFCC last week, is said to be
a close friend of Dasuki and a political associate of
President Buhari, although Buhari did not know about the
N170 million deal with Dasuki.
The Presidency immediately distanced itself from Isah upon
his arrest, making it clear that it would not interfere in his
prosecution by the EFCC.
An aide of the President told Vanguard in confidence that
although Jafaru Isah was a close political ally of President
Buhari, the first citizen would nonetheless remain neutral in
the matter in line with his avowed position to deal
decisively with corruption.
While describing Isah as a political ally, who had been with
Buhari from the days of the defunct All Nigeria Peoples
Party to the Congress for Progressive Change, the aide
made it clear that the long relationship did not in any way
suggest that Buhari was associated with the collection of
N170 million from the Office of the National Adviser by the
embattled politician.
The aide said: “It is true that Isah has been with Buhari from
the days of the ANPP and CPC and was equally a member of
the Transition Committee and actually headed the Defence
Committee but that does not mean that Buhari knows
anything about the N100 million said to have been collected
by the man from the ONSA.”
Jafaru, who was a military administrator of Kaduna State
from December 1993 to August 1996 during the military
regime of General Sani Abacha and one-time governorship
candidate of the defunct CPC in Kano State, is also
described as a close friend of the embattled ex-NSA,
Dasuki, who is facing multiple charges over money
laundering and breach of public trust in three courts.
Arms deal :I won’t return N100 million, says Chief Falae
National Chairman of the Social Democratic Party, Chief Olu
Falae, yesterday, said he would not refund the N100 million
he collected from Chief Tony Anenih, which has been
alleged to have come from the former National Security
Adviser, Col. Sambo Dasuki.
Chief Falae, explained that the amount was given to him for
onward delivery to his party, to assist sell ex-President
Goodluck Jonathan’s second term bid, saying it was not
paid through the office of the former NSA.
To this end, he has asked the government to hold Anenih,
former Board of Trustees of the PDP, the source of the
money rather than either himself or his party.
Speaking at a press conference, in Abuja, through the
party’s National Publicity Secretary, Dr. Abdul Ahmed
Isaiq, Falae insisted that his party would not return any
money to the government coffers, since the money it got
was neither from Col. Dasuki nor Office of the National
Security Adviser.
He explained that the money was as a result of electoral
alliance his party entered with the then ruling Peoples
Democratic Party, to deliver the then President Goodluck
Jonathan in his re-election quest.
He said those who were returning money to the government
were those who got money directly from the Office of the
former NSA, saying he cannot be part, since he did not get
the money from Dasuki or the office he was occupying.
*Chief Olu Falae
“In terms of refund of money, I want to say here that those
people who are refunding money are those who got their
money directly from the arms deal fund.
“Our fund did not come from the arms deal, our fund came
from an electoral alliance with the PDP and we knew that
the PDP had a fund raising committee that gathered billions
of naira and PDP had been in government for 16 years.
“ So, with that, we knew that the PDP had the capacity to
fund the alliance that was formed with them by the SDP, he
explained.
“You don’t postulate what you don’t have on the ground,
you can’t build on a non foundation.
“We, as a political party knew that the PDP was a capable
hand in the electoral alliance which we entered with them.
And we equally knew that the PDP had a fund raising,
where it generated over N20 billion down.
“So, whether the money came from Col. Sambo Dasuki or
his office, is what we don’t know and it is left for them to
ask Chief Tony Anenih to explain, “he added.
He emphasized:” “We knew that the PDP had been ruling
Nigeria for 16 years. So, this was the basis of our electoral
alliance with them.
“We can’t refund any money to anybody because the money
we got as a party came because of the alliance we had with
the PDP and we have the agreement note from this alliance.
“If it is possible that the money Chief Anenih gave us was
from the arms deal, it is left for them to ask Chief Anenih to
clarify. As far as we knew, we did not have any dealing with
Dasuki.
“ Our office did not ever have anything to do with the office
or person of the National Security Adviser, Col. Sambo
Dasuki. “
Dr Abdul explained that prior to the 2015 presidential
election, the SDP was approached by the Peoples
Democratic Party, PDP through its BOT chairman, Chief
Tony Anenih, for electoral alliance for the re-election bid of
the former President, Dr Goodluck Jonathan.
He said Chief Olu Falae, being the national chairman of
SDP, summoned the National Executive Committee, NEC of
SDP to a well-attended meeting to consider the PDP’s
proposal of electoral alliance for the re-election bid of the
former President, Goodluck Jonathan, since SDP did not
field a presidential candidate of its own, saying the money
that the SDP was given, which he noted, was being alleged
to have come from the arms deal fund, was as a result of
the alliance.
He, however, said, his party was in full support of the
ongoing fight against corruption, saying anyone found
wanting should be prosecuted according to the laws of the
land.
“If you look at the cardinal principles of the Social
Democratic Party, one of the basic ones is that of zero
tolerance to corruption. So, anywhere there is fight against
corruption, SDP is in support, once it is done according to
the ambit of the law.
“ In terms of the misappropriation of arms deal fund, as a
party, I want to say that anybody who violates the law
should face the consequences, “he added.
2015 presidential poll: How Anenih, Falae sealed PDP/SDP
working cooperation
Fresh facts are beginning to emerge on how former
Chairman of Board of Trustees, BoT of the Peoples
Democratic Party, PDP, Chief Tony Anenih and former
Secretary to the Government of the Federation and leader of
the Social Democratic Party, SDP, Chief Olu Falae entered
into a working relationship prior to the 2015 presidential
election.
A letter which was accessed by Vanguard yesterday
buttressed the political marriage entered into by PDP with
Chief Anenih on one hand and the National Chairman of the
SDP, Chief Olu Falae on the other hand against the
backdrop that the SDP had no presidential candidate for the
2015 Presidential election as there was the need for PDP’s
candidate, former President Goodluck Jonathan to be
supported.
The letter by Chief Tony Anenih, the then Chairman of PDP
BoT was dated January 26, 2015 and it confirmed the claim
by Chief Olu Falae that there was inter-party cooperation
between the PDP and the SDP to support Jonathan’s
presidential ambition.
The PDP through Chief Anenih had agreed to the six issues
raised by the SDP before it could support the re-election bid
of President Goodluck Jonathan in last year’s presidential
election.
Falae, who admitted that he received on behalf of the SDP
the sum of N100 million from the PDP through Anenih,
following the agreement to work together, told an online
newspaper-Premium Times-that the money was distributed
to all the state branches of the SDP.
Chief Falae had also stated elsewhere that his party, which
did not have a candidate for the presidential election,
decided to work for the actualization of Jonathan’s re-
election after the PDP agreed to the six issues it placed on
the negotiation table.
Anenih’s letter had clearly responded to the six issues, thus
paving the way for the PDP-SDP working cooperation.
The letter, entitled: “Inter-Party Co-operation” and signed
by Anenih in his capacity as Chairman of the Board of
Trustees of the PDP reads: “I write to sincerely thank you
for your letter dated January 23,2015, on the above subject
matter.
“After due consultations with relevant stakeholders of our
party, I am pleased to convey to you our decisions on the
issues and to further inform you that the President and the
leadership of our party have expressed delight and strong
optimism to fully cooperate and work with the SDP in the
circumstance.
“On the implementation of the report of the 2014 National
Conference” that “Please be assured that the report of the
National Conference will be implemented to the letter. We
believe that having regards to the fact that the National
Conference was a baby of the President, he is in a better
position to implement it. And this is what he is doing.”
On “zero tolerance to corruption”, Anenih had responded
thus : “There is no doubt that our party, the PDP and your
party, the SDP, are on the same page on this issue. Apart
from the fact that this administration has done more arrests,
investigations, prosecutions and convictions of corrupt
cases, the President has continuously laid emphasis on the
need to develop an appropriate technology to
comprehensively combat corruption and its vices.
“The approach, for example, has produced immense results
in eliminating corruption that was associated with the
distribution of fertilizers in Nigeria in the past.”
On “intensification of efforts to defeat insurgency”, he said:
“it is the primary duty of Government to protect the lives
and property of its citizens and secure the territorial
integrity of the nation. This Government has consistently
made efforts to deal with the challenges of Boko Haram who
have established their operational base somewhere between
some States in the North-East of the country and the
boundary with some of our neighbouring African countries.
“Terrorism has become a global phenomenon and fighting it
requires the co-operation of not just the entire citizens but
the support of the international community. The President
is working on this. In his recent visit to Borno and in a rally
in Maiduguri few days ago, he assured the people that every
inch of Nigerian soil currently under the control of
insurgents will be recovered in no distant time.”
EFCC explained, yesterday, why it has not arrested former
President Goodluck Jonathan following startling revelations
on how the former National Security Adviser, NSA, Col
Sambo Dasuki (retd) allegedly disbursed over $2.1 billion
meant for arms purchase to various individuals.
Alarmed by the revelations, the National leadership of the
Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, has, however, asked Dr
Jonathan to speak out.
This came as the anti-graft commission disclosed that one
of the beneficiaries, the former Military Administrator of
Kaduna State, Mr. Jafaru Isah had returned N100m out of
the N170m he collected and was given administrative bail
to source for the balance of N70m.
Another beneficiary, the former Secretary to the Government
of the Federation and leader of the Social Democratic Party,
SDP, Chief Olu Falae however insisted that he would not
refund the N100 million he collected from Chief Tony
Anenih, which was said to have come from Dasuki.
Facts have also emerged how former Chairman of Board of
Trustees, BoT of the PDP, Chief Tony Anenih and Chief Olu
Falae entered into a working relationship prior to the 2015
presidential election.
Explaining why the former president has not been arrested
while speaking with online news publishers yesterday, in
Lagos, the EFCC boss, Mr Ibrahim Magu said that no
document has been traced to Jonathan giving any approval
for the disbursement of the money for any purpose other
than arms purchase.
He said that all those questioned so far in connection with
the money were people who disbursed or collected it for
reasons other than the purchase of arms and ammunition.
“All approvals by former president Jonathan did not
mention that it was for political purposes.
All the memos approved by him were for the purchase of
arms,” he said.
Speaking about Olisa Metuh, the EFCC boss revealed that
the national publicity secretary of the Peoples Democratic
Party said he would rather go on hunger strike than refund
the N400 million he allegedly collected from Dasuki.
Maga also said that Patrick Akpobolokemi, a former boss of
Nigerian Maritime Administration and Safety Agency, was
recently re-arrested after new evidences of alleged
embezzlement of N34.5 billion and another N600 million
were linked to him.
The EFCC chairman stressed that the war against graft was
not selective and assured Nigerians that his agency was not
teleguided in the ongoing anti-corruption fight.
According to PDP, since former President Jonathan was still
alive, he should come out and explain to Nigerians whether
he authorized his former National Security Adviser to
distribute money meant to fight Boko Haram into his
campaign.
Addressing Journalists yesterday in Abuja, PDP Deputy
National Publicity Secretary Abdullahi Jalo said, Goodluck
Ebele Jonathan is alive, he should clarify whether he asked
the National Security Adviser to distribute money meant to
fight Boko Haram into his campaign.
According to Jalo, “Jonathan is alive, he should clarify
whether he asked the National Security Adviser to distribute
money meant to fight Boko Haram into his campaign. What
is important for one to know is that former President
Goodluck Jonathan is alive. Has he ever said go and take
the money for arms meant for Boko Haram to campaign for
me? Is there anytime that Jonathan asked for anything from
either Dasuki to go and distribute this money meant for
fighting Boko Haram for his campaign?
“As you all know, no single kobo will be spent by the federal
government or former President Goodluck Jonathan without
the Act of the National Assembly. Some people however
decided to divert this money to something else.
“Darkness has now come to light, we have now discovered
that it is not only PDP members who collected the money
but those in APGA collected, Falae collected, Tanko Yakasai
collected. They all collected the money under the guise that
they are campaigning for Goodluck Jonathan.
“It is known to us that money meant for campaign are given
to the national chairmen of various political parties. We had
a dinner in the banquet hall where some billions were
collected meant for campaign for Jonathan. That money
was meant for campaign. Dangote, Otedola and others
donated. So why would somebody tell us that you are
taking money meant to fight Boko Haram, which is from an
Act of the National Assembly. Any money appropriated is
coming from consolidated account of the federal
government and its usage must be meant for that”.
The PDP which also disowned the embattled National
Publicity Secretary, Chief Olisa Metuh who has remained
detained by the officials of the Economic and Financial
Crimes Commission, EFCC, said that as a party, it will not
fight for his bail and others who have been alleged to be
involved in the arms deal scam because they did that on
personal levels and not on the platform of the party.
According to Jalo, “the issue of bail does not have anything
to do with PDP. Let them tell us how much they have
brought to PDP, to the national chairman and the money
used for campaign, we want to know from them.
“PDP has nothing to do with individuals that used their
companies to get money. PDP has no company, it is a
political platform. There is PDP account and they did not
even inform the PDP that they had received this money, they
just went and slept with their families eating eggs and rice.”
Jalo who noted that public should not misconstrue the
unfolding issues with that of the PDP, said that individuals
that were presently involved, accessed public funds through
their various private companies and not the PDP even
though they were members of the party. He added that the
Arms fund were an appropriation of the National Assembly
to which the former President and Dasuki Sambo were
aware of and were aware of the limit of using the funds
other than what it was meant for.
The PDP deputy National Publicity Secretary said, “There
are a lot of outcries against our members that have been
taken to court because they received money from what we
called Dasukigate or arms deal.
“The former acting National Chairman, Dr. Bello Haliru, who
was taken to court is now on bail, he has a company Pam
Proper and Property limited, he was given N600 million
under a registered company of Corporate Affairs
Commission, you can find out what the contract was meant
for. Has he done what he was asked to do with the N600
million?
“Olisa Metuh’s company is Destral investment limited, he
was given a job of N400 million. What has that got to do
with PDP, you can bear me witness, when Olisa was
accusing Lai Mohammed that he collected a contract from
one of the states in the West, even Lai Mohammed took him
to court, so now the hunter is now the hunted. Lai’s case
has not been proved, Olisa is under investigation.
“Let us put the record straight. We want anyone of these
people that have been accused whether in PDP, APGA or
APC to come out and tell us that the money they collected,
was given to PDP or their party. When he was given this
money was he given the money to go and campaign for
Jonathan, if yes let him show us the paper, let him present
an evidence, but whoever was given this money should
know that this money was not meant for that, it was meant
for arms purchase.
“Thank God the party has kept quiet deliberately, maybe,
because some have benefited. If we cannot clean the party
now, the future is going to be bleak.
“If the Legal Adviser of PDP, rushes to go and bail out Olisa
Metuh now he is doing the wrong thing, because he has to
separate the party and Olisa as an individual.
Go, bring balance of N170m cash traced to you, EFCC tells
Jafaru Isah
Meanwhile, the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission
confirmed on Monday that it had retrieved N100 million out
of the N170 million traced to the account of the former
Military Administrator of Kaduna State, Mr. Jafaru Isah.
The Chairman of the EFCC, Mr. Ibrahim Magu, confirmed the
retrieval of the cash from Isah, adding that it was the partial
refund that informed his administrative bail to enable him to
go and source for the balance.
Magu, who made the disclosure in response to criticism that
he quickly released the APC chieftain and close associate of
President Buhari while holding onto Olisa Metuh of the
opposition PDP, said that the refund was not a guaranty that
the suspect would not be prosecuted for receiving public
funds illegally.
Jafaru Isah
There has been a furore over the ‘sudden’ release of Isah
from EFCC custody while other suspects duly granted bail
by the courts, are still being held by the anti-graft agency.
The opposition PDP believes its key figures, who received
huge cash from the office of the National Security Adviser
and are being detained by the EFCC, are being persecuted
notwithstanding their admission that they indeed, received
the said cash for election purposes.
But in the case of Jafaru Isah, the amount of N170 million
traced to him is said to have been paid by the embattled ex-
NSA, Sambo Dasuki, to enable him to acquire a property in
Kano State for him.
The deal, it was gathered did not go through, as a member
of the Jonathan cabinet paid a higher amount of money for
the same building which Isah was billed to buy for Dasuki.
Isah, who was arrested by the EFCC last week, is said to be
a close friend of Dasuki and a political associate of
President Buhari, although Buhari did not know about the
N170 million deal with Dasuki.
The Presidency immediately distanced itself from Isah upon
his arrest, making it clear that it would not interfere in his
prosecution by the EFCC.
An aide of the President told Vanguard in confidence that
although Jafaru Isah was a close political ally of President
Buhari, the first citizen would nonetheless remain neutral in
the matter in line with his avowed position to deal
decisively with corruption.
While describing Isah as a political ally, who had been with
Buhari from the days of the defunct All Nigeria Peoples
Party to the Congress for Progressive Change, the aide
made it clear that the long relationship did not in any way
suggest that Buhari was associated with the collection of
N170 million from the Office of the National Adviser by the
embattled politician.
The aide said: “It is true that Isah has been with Buhari from
the days of the ANPP and CPC and was equally a member of
the Transition Committee and actually headed the Defence
Committee but that does not mean that Buhari knows
anything about the N100 million said to have been collected
by the man from the ONSA.”
Jafaru, who was a military administrator of Kaduna State
from December 1993 to August 1996 during the military
regime of General Sani Abacha and one-time governorship
candidate of the defunct CPC in Kano State, is also
described as a close friend of the embattled ex-NSA,
Dasuki, who is facing multiple charges over money
laundering and breach of public trust in three courts.
Arms deal :I won’t return N100 million, says Chief Falae
National Chairman of the Social Democratic Party, Chief Olu
Falae, yesterday, said he would not refund the N100 million
he collected from Chief Tony Anenih, which has been
alleged to have come from the former National Security
Adviser, Col. Sambo Dasuki.
Chief Falae, explained that the amount was given to him for
onward delivery to his party, to assist sell ex-President
Goodluck Jonathan’s second term bid, saying it was not
paid through the office of the former NSA.
To this end, he has asked the government to hold Anenih,
former Board of Trustees of the PDP, the source of the
money rather than either himself or his party.
Speaking at a press conference, in Abuja, through the
party’s National Publicity Secretary, Dr. Abdul Ahmed
Isaiq, Falae insisted that his party would not return any
money to the government coffers, since the money it got
was neither from Col. Dasuki nor Office of the National
Security Adviser.
He explained that the money was as a result of electoral
alliance his party entered with the then ruling Peoples
Democratic Party, to deliver the then President Goodluck
Jonathan in his re-election quest.
He said those who were returning money to the government
were those who got money directly from the Office of the
former NSA, saying he cannot be part, since he did not get
the money from Dasuki or the office he was occupying.
*Chief Olu Falae
“In terms of refund of money, I want to say here that those
people who are refunding money are those who got their
money directly from the arms deal fund.
“Our fund did not come from the arms deal, our fund came
from an electoral alliance with the PDP and we knew that
the PDP had a fund raising committee that gathered billions
of naira and PDP had been in government for 16 years.
“ So, with that, we knew that the PDP had the capacity to
fund the alliance that was formed with them by the SDP, he
explained.
“You don’t postulate what you don’t have on the ground,
you can’t build on a non foundation.
“We, as a political party knew that the PDP was a capable
hand in the electoral alliance which we entered with them.
And we equally knew that the PDP had a fund raising,
where it generated over N20 billion down.
“So, whether the money came from Col. Sambo Dasuki or
his office, is what we don’t know and it is left for them to
ask Chief Tony Anenih to explain, “he added.
He emphasized:” “We knew that the PDP had been ruling
Nigeria for 16 years. So, this was the basis of our electoral
alliance with them.
“We can’t refund any money to anybody because the money
we got as a party came because of the alliance we had with
the PDP and we have the agreement note from this alliance.
“If it is possible that the money Chief Anenih gave us was
from the arms deal, it is left for them to ask Chief Anenih to
clarify. As far as we knew, we did not have any dealing with
Dasuki.
“ Our office did not ever have anything to do with the office
or person of the National Security Adviser, Col. Sambo
Dasuki. “
Dr Abdul explained that prior to the 2015 presidential
election, the SDP was approached by the Peoples
Democratic Party, PDP through its BOT chairman, Chief
Tony Anenih, for electoral alliance for the re-election bid of
the former President, Dr Goodluck Jonathan.
He said Chief Olu Falae, being the national chairman of
SDP, summoned the National Executive Committee, NEC of
SDP to a well-attended meeting to consider the PDP’s
proposal of electoral alliance for the re-election bid of the
former President, Goodluck Jonathan, since SDP did not
field a presidential candidate of its own, saying the money
that the SDP was given, which he noted, was being alleged
to have come from the arms deal fund, was as a result of
the alliance.
He, however, said, his party was in full support of the
ongoing fight against corruption, saying anyone found
wanting should be prosecuted according to the laws of the
land.
“If you look at the cardinal principles of the Social
Democratic Party, one of the basic ones is that of zero
tolerance to corruption. So, anywhere there is fight against
corruption, SDP is in support, once it is done according to
the ambit of the law.
“ In terms of the misappropriation of arms deal fund, as a
party, I want to say that anybody who violates the law
should face the consequences, “he added.
2015 presidential poll: How Anenih, Falae sealed PDP/SDP
working cooperation
Fresh facts are beginning to emerge on how former
Chairman of Board of Trustees, BoT of the Peoples
Democratic Party, PDP, Chief Tony Anenih and former
Secretary to the Government of the Federation and leader of
the Social Democratic Party, SDP, Chief Olu Falae entered
into a working relationship prior to the 2015 presidential
election.
A letter which was accessed by Vanguard yesterday
buttressed the political marriage entered into by PDP with
Chief Anenih on one hand and the National Chairman of the
SDP, Chief Olu Falae on the other hand against the
backdrop that the SDP had no presidential candidate for the
2015 Presidential election as there was the need for PDP’s
candidate, former President Goodluck Jonathan to be
supported.
The letter by Chief Tony Anenih, the then Chairman of PDP
BoT was dated January 26, 2015 and it confirmed the claim
by Chief Olu Falae that there was inter-party cooperation
between the PDP and the SDP to support Jonathan’s
presidential ambition.
The PDP through Chief Anenih had agreed to the six issues
raised by the SDP before it could support the re-election bid
of President Goodluck Jonathan in last year’s presidential
election.
Falae, who admitted that he received on behalf of the SDP
the sum of N100 million from the PDP through Anenih,
following the agreement to work together, told an online
newspaper-Premium Times-that the money was distributed
to all the state branches of the SDP.
Chief Falae had also stated elsewhere that his party, which
did not have a candidate for the presidential election,
decided to work for the actualization of Jonathan’s re-
election after the PDP agreed to the six issues it placed on
the negotiation table.
Anenih’s letter had clearly responded to the six issues, thus
paving the way for the PDP-SDP working cooperation.
The letter, entitled: “Inter-Party Co-operation” and signed
by Anenih in his capacity as Chairman of the Board of
Trustees of the PDP reads: “I write to sincerely thank you
for your letter dated January 23,2015, on the above subject
matter.
“After due consultations with relevant stakeholders of our
party, I am pleased to convey to you our decisions on the
issues and to further inform you that the President and the
leadership of our party have expressed delight and strong
optimism to fully cooperate and work with the SDP in the
circumstance.
“On the implementation of the report of the 2014 National
Conference” that “Please be assured that the report of the
National Conference will be implemented to the letter. We
believe that having regards to the fact that the National
Conference was a baby of the President, he is in a better
position to implement it. And this is what he is doing.”
On “zero tolerance to corruption”, Anenih had responded
thus : “There is no doubt that our party, the PDP and your
party, the SDP, are on the same page on this issue. Apart
from the fact that this administration has done more arrests,
investigations, prosecutions and convictions of corrupt
cases, the President has continuously laid emphasis on the
need to develop an appropriate technology to
comprehensively combat corruption and its vices.
“The approach, for example, has produced immense results
in eliminating corruption that was associated with the
distribution of fertilizers in Nigeria in the past.”
On “intensification of efforts to defeat insurgency”, he said:
“it is the primary duty of Government to protect the lives
and property of its citizens and secure the territorial
integrity of the nation. This Government has consistently
made efforts to deal with the challenges of Boko Haram who
have established their operational base somewhere between
some States in the North-East of the country and the
boundary with some of our neighbouring African countries.
“Terrorism has become a global phenomenon and fighting it
requires the co-operation of not just the entire citizens but
the support of the international community. The President
is working on this. In his recent visit to Borno and in a rally
in Maiduguri few days ago, he assured the people that every
inch of Nigerian soil currently under the control of
insurgents will be recovered in no distant time.”

I didn’t share Jonathan’s rice as Xmas gift —Edo PDP gov aspirant
BENIN—A governorship aspirant on the platform of Peoples
Democratic Party, PDP, in this year’s election in Edo State,
Pastor Osagie Ize-Iyamu, has denied allegations that he
shared rice meant for the presidential campaign of former
President Goodluck Jonathan in the state as his Christmas
gift to Edo people.
In a statement in Benin, yesterday, he said, “For the records,
Dr. Jonathan or PDP never brought rice to distribute for the
presidential election in Edo State, so it is impossible to
comptemplate its being diverted.
“It was Transformation Ambassadors of Nigeria, TAN, a
support group for the then President, that sent some 5kg
bags of rice which were given to the party leadership to
distribute and were never given to me as state coordinator.
“The rice I shared during the last Christmas was in 50kg,
25kg, 10kg and 2kg bags respectively. The 2kg bags which
had the inscription of PDP and operation feed Nigeria was
produced by a friend and his phone number is boldly written
on the bags. He gave me these bags free of charge to give
to as many people as possible as gift during Christmas.
“I stuck my stickers on the bags after bagging them to
enable the recipients know where the rice came from and I
thank God for all those who supported me to achieve this
gesture of love in a state that has been plundered by those
who promised to abolish poverty.
“I challenge those who persist in lies and character
assassination to call the phone number on the back of the
2kg bags and confirm the producer of these bags. Common
sense which is lacking in the life of political thieves could
have revealed that rice stored for over a year would be prey
to weevils and clearly not suitable for human consumption.”
He accused those he called political hirelings of attempting
to cast aspersions on the integrity of his person by falsely
accusing him of diverting rice meant for the presidential
campaign of Dr. Jonathan and distributing same as his own
Christmas gift to Edo people.
“This baseless allegation, which is absurd, was quickly
refuted by the leadership of PDP in Edo State as untrue.
That emphatic statement ought to have cleared the matter
but clueless detractors desperate to earn their pay stuck to
their mischief and insisted that their allegation must be
investigated,” he said.

I’m Happy My Ex-wife Has Forgiven Me –9ice
During the week, 9ice ex-wife, Tony Payne, posted a lengthy
write up on her website that she has officially forgiven the
singer and father of her child. In her write up, she said for
about six years, she was angry and bitter towards the singer
because he did not defend her when people were peddling
tales of infidelity against her.
In an exclusive chat with Saturday Beats, the singer said that
he was very happy when he saw the post by his ex-wife.
He said, “I saw the write-up my ex-wife posted on the
internet where she wrote that she has forgiven me after six
years. It is a very good development and I am happy she
had forgiven me after all these years. Contrary to public
opinion we have been friends all these while. The most
important thing is that even when things are not working or
they are not the way they should seem with a person, you
should endeavour to remain friends with the person. That is
very important. We are friends and we remain friends.”
When asked about their son, Zion, the proud father
described the lad as a genius.
“Zion can do anything and become anything he wants to be
in life. He is into music, sport, science; he is a very brilliant
child. Some time when I think of how much of a genius he is,
I get scared. He is still a young chap and it is when he grows
up that we can actually decide what career he should
pursue. He is a multitalented kid,” the singer said.
Basking in the euphoria of the success of his current song,
9ice said he didn’t envisage the song would be a hit.
“The acceptance of my new song, ‘Abefe’, has been very
fantastic and it has gone beyond what we expected because
we have not even begun to seriously promote it. All we have
done is to promote it online and it has been widely accepted
and that is what motivated us to make compact disc for the
song. I already have a follow-up song to, ‘Abefe’, and it is
called ‘ATM’, meaning At The Moment. It is a party song and
it is about how a person feels at the moment; or what God
has done in the life of a person at the moment,” 9ice said.

What always get on my nerves is the attitude of the people during election period,I could remember vividly during the last election someone that they have been condemning and promised never to voted for,just because of the little penny dashed out to them by this representative(BOLAJI YUSUFF AYINLA BYA),they all changed their decisions and sold their pains in an exchanged for something that would not last and will also ensures the continuity of their pains,well I was met to understood that there can never be a quality politics in a society where larger percentage of its population are living in poverty.he was our representative at the Lagos State House Of Assembly for three consecutive terms without unleashing any development in mushin Ajina even he can't even picked just one of the essential wants stated in the definition of Human Development according to the United National Development Programme UNDP which states that Human Development is the process of enlarging people choice most especially the three essential wants,which are for people to live a good and healthy life,acquire education and have access to resources needed for living a good standard of life.how many academic programs has BYA sponsored during his 12 yrs as a member representing Mushin Ajina constituency 2 in the Lagos House of Assembly the answer is not far fetch it is "CAPITAL NO" and now migrated to the House of Representatives and people still voted for him what an irony of life.
As for our Representative in the Lagos House of Assembly we are all aware that he is new in the system let us give him sometime to show the utility that he is possessing and his satisfying power and if he didn't have any during his first term we are not going to demand for him in 2019.
