Read Simon Kolawole's Exposé On The APC and nPDP Merger

Maybe I am seeing things

that many observers

cannot see yet. Or maybe

I am deluded. But I will

continue to say that the

current blossoming of a

viable opposition is going

to be one of the greatest

catalysts for democracy

and development in

Nigeria. With the defection

of five PDP governors to

the APC, we are now

entering a phase in our

democracy where the

ruling party and the

opposition are almost

evenly matched, at least

on paper.

I, for one, had been

impatient with the PDP

governors because they

had been threatening

endlessly to defect to the

APC. Governor Murtala

Nyako (Adamawa) had

made it a daily habit to

announce that he was on

his way to the APC office

in Yola to pick

membership form. That’s

a done deal now.

But there are two broad

reactions to the latest

development...

Some are so excited.

They say it marks the end

of the 'evil' PDP and the

imminent enthronement of

'progressives' to “save

Nigeria” from misrule. To

these people, I say: calm

down. You don’t move

from being a “bad”

governor to a “good”

governor simply because

you defected from one

party to the other

yesterday. You don’t

suddenly become

Nigeria’s saviour because

you left PDP for APC after

a disagreement over the

national cake.

Like I have always said,

the PDP crisis is a falling-

out among a committee of

friends. It is not about

potable water or education

or healthcare. It is pure

power play. It is about

2015 elections. Who gets

the presidential ticket?

Who will be the running

mate? Whose son will be

governor in Adamawa

State? Nyako’s or

Bamanga Tukur’s?

On the other side, you

have people unfairly

condemning the

opposition. They said APC

is doomed to fail, that it is

a congregation of crooks,

that the party is just

driven by the lust for

power with all kinds of

characters jumping on the

bandwagon. Someone

pointed out that APC is

filled with people who

never see eye-to-eye on

matters such as fiscal

federalism, quota system,

federal character, state

police, “true federalism”

and all that.

To this group, I say:

what’s your problem? To

start with, we cannot

change government

democratically without

these politicians. I can

write all that I like on this

page every Sunday, but it

is politicians that are in

charge. Therefore, if we

want to change Nigeria

democratically, we need

these same politicians we

condemn. Change their

thinking and you will

change the fortunes of

Nigeria.

Let me say this again and

again and again: I do not

believe PDP is a party of

sinners and APC is a

party of saints. I do not

believe only PDP rigs or

only PDP is filled with

corrupt and inept leaders.

I would love to say that in

order to earn some

applause, but my

conscience will not allow

me. Nigerian politicians,

no matter their party,

language and religion, are

basically the same. Let

me be clear about that.

That is why they find it so

easy to swap political

parties from time to time

without feeling out of

place, without having to

battle any contradictions.

They are at home

anywhere they find

themselves.

It is the same set of

people that are circulating

and re-circulating in the

political space. Let’s not

kid ourselves.

Having said that, however,

let me quickly state my

position and then

conclude. I wrote, over

two years ago, that 2015

is going to be the tightest

election ever. I still stand

by my postulation. The

dynamics are already

pointing in that direction. I

cannot categorically say

that PDP will lose or APC

will win, but I can

confidently say that it is

not going to be a piece of

cake for either party. In

the past, PDP went into a

general election knowing

it was going to be a walk-

over, mainly because of a

heavily fragmented

opposition. Winning

PDP’s ticket was as good

as winning the election,

and the battle for PDP’s

tickets was, in many

instances, fiercer than the

actual election.

That effectively meant the

PDP had no incentive to

deliver the goods. It was

all too easy for them.

This puts the emerging

strong, viable opposition

into perspective. Under

normal circumstances,

President Goodluck

Jonathan should now

become desperate to

deliver democracy

dividends in order to win

public support ahead of

the 2015 elections. He still

has enough time in his

hands. On its part, the

APC should be raising the

game through well-

articulated alternative

policies and programmes,

showing off their

credentials in states they

currently govern as the

basis for Nigerians to

choose them ahead of the

PDP. Invariably, the

parties will have to sweat

for every vote.

Okay, there is the rigging

factor. I have discounted

that. Nigerian politicians

are, genetically, election

riggers. There will be

balance of rigging, as it

were.

Now, if my calculations

turn out fine - that is,

Jonathan rolls up his

sleeves and delivers more

democracy dividends and

APC raises the ante by

trying to outperform PDP

in the states - then

Nigeria and Nigerians will

be the unintended

beneficiaries of this new

wave of politicking. And

that way, our democracy

will begin to deliver

development. Hopefully

How Naija Babe Stole Her Boyfriend's Gold Necklace During Séx

With Naija babes, shame

is a scarce commodity.

26-year-old Tessy

Emorvon, who stole a gold

necklace from her guy,

shocked operatives of the

Special Anti Robbery

Squad (SARS) in Lagos,

when she suddenly dipped

her fingers into her vagina

and produced the

N850,000 necklace after

several days in detention.

Trouble started when

Cosmos, her boyfriend,

realized that the gold

necklace that he wore

while having sex with

Tessy was missing. He

immediately raised the

alarm...

The occupants of the

hotel, including Tessy,

were arrested. They were

all searched and the gold

chain was not found. Not

satisfied with their claim

that they were not aware

of where the gold chain

was kept, Cosmos quickly

alerted the police at Area

F, Ikeja.

At the police station,

Tessy insisted that she

knew nothing about the

stolen gold necklace.

Having been detained for

two days, she was

granted bail while

investigation continued.

But Tessy was

immediately re-arrested

by detectives at SARS,

Ikeja when the owner of

the necklace, Cosmos

alerted them that his

girlfriend who believed

stole his necklace, had

been granted bail.

The officer in-charge of

SARS, SP Abba Kyari

ordered his men to take

Tessy in for their own

tough process of

interrogation. But terrified

that she could be treated

like an armed robber,

Tessy quickly confessed

and agreed to produce the

golden necklace from

where she had kept it.

The policemen however

got the shock of their

lives when she started

undressing. Embarrassed,

the officers asked if she

had lost her senses and

Tessy insisted that she

was trying to bring out the

necklace. She dipped her

fingers inside her vagina

and pulled out a piece of

cotton wool soaked with

blood.

To the surprise of all

present, inside it was the

stolen necklace.

Meanwhile, Cosmos said

he had strong feelings

that the gold necklace

was with Tessy as she

had threatened severally

that she would disappear

with it. " I have heard so

much of the exploits of

SARS, Ikeja, so I quickly

rushed to the office and

filed a fresh report when I

learnt that they wanted to

release her. Actually, she

drugged me, before taking

the necklace ," Cosmos

added.

Confessing to her crime,

Tessy said:

"This man is very stingy

and hardly pays well at

the end of a hot sex

session with him. He is

actually my boyfriend and

I have dated him for more

than a year. Most of the

time, he will have sex with

me and go home giving

excuses why he would not

give me a kobo. I always

let it go because I knew

that at the end of the day,

I would make money from

other customers. Since he

is the only one that I

normally had sex with

without condom, I was

enjoying the relationship.

"Few days before the

incident, he came with a

gold necklace and told me

that it was worth

N850,000. I felt bad that a

man who can afford to

buy a necklace that's

worth that much could not

give his girlfriend money

for maintenance. The next

day, he came with another

necklace and at that point

I made up my mind that I

would steal it. He slept a

lot after sex, so it was

easy for me to take the

necklace and hide it.

Naturally, I knew that they

will strip me in an attempt

to find the necklace, so I

had no choice but to hide

it in the safest place in

my body. My vagina."

Funny enough, Mr

Cosmos is a married

man. According to Tessy,

"It was when the

argument started that she

got to know that Cosmos

is a married man with

children. His brother

suddenly surfaced and

accused him of

abandoning his wife who

is a nursing mother at

home. I was so

disappointed because, he

had promised to marry

me ."

Lagos State Police

Command are yet to

decide if Tessy will be

charged to court or not.

Meet The Man Tinubu Wants to Take Over as Governor in Lagos

Strong indications have

emerged that the

leadership of All

Progressives Congress in

Lagos have acquiesced to

the request of Christians

in the state for a Christian

governor in 2015. The

candidate of choice is Ayo

Gbeleyi, the present

Commissioner of Finance

in the administration of

quintessential Governor

Babatunde Fashola.

The decision to present a

Christian candidate

emerged after due

consultations with

eminent Christian leaders

and clerics who have

promised to mobilise

other faithfuls to vote

enmasse for the party if a

Christian emerges as

gubernatorial candidate in

the state. The leadership

of the APC, after a

thorough search, have

found a willing and

reliable Christian

candidate in Ayo Gbeleyi,

a thoroughbred

professional known for his

exceptional brilliance and

intelligence.

Since the searchlight has

beamed on Gbeleyi,

Christian leaders are

delighted that Asiwaju

Bola Ahmed Tinubu has

not only heeded to their

demands but responded

accordingly.

They had argued that

Moslems have

successively governed the

state since the inception

of democracy. It is just

fair and equitable to allow

a Christian to govern

Lagos, given the fact that

successive governors of

the state since 1999 that

democracy returned have

been Moslems. Besides,

they argued that the three

Senatorial seats are

occupied by Moslems.

The call for a Christian

governor, observers of

politics in the state

reasoned is not to ignite

any religious crisis but to

ensure balance and

equity.

Observers opined that the

efforts of successive

administrations in the

state in areas of

governance,

accountability and

reliability are not and

should not be exclusive of

faith or religion.

A thoroughbred candidate

like Gbeleyi, they posited,

is equally suitable for the

exalted post. With his

pedigree and insights in

public service, finance,

procurement, construction,

project management, etc,

he is, no doubt, a round

peg in a round hole. It

could be recalled that he

single-handedly planned

and made a major

breakthrough with his

well-thoughout Public

Private Partnership (PPP)

initiative in Lagos. While

he served as the Director-

General of the parastatal,

he also doubled as the

Senior Adviser to the

Executive Governor

Babatunde Raji Fashola

on the project.

Over time, his visionary

leadership amid pressure,

necessity and even

adversity on several

projects in his purview

yielded unprecedented

positivity and growth that

sooner than ever, Lagos

becomes an envy spot in

PPP. Commendable is his

ability to work seamlessly

with the Ministries

Department Agencies

(MDAs) to realise and

institutionalise Lagos of

our dream and the

government strides to

make the state a Megacity

is achieved.

The beauty and elegance

we see in the services of

the Bus Rapid Transit,

(BRT), Lekki-Epe Toll

Concession, the

Independent Power Plant,

Oluwole and Tejuoso

Market Developments,

Adeniran Ogunsanya Ultra

Modern Shopping and

Retail Commercial Centres

are some of the lofty

ideas he has shared and

executed with the support

of the purposeful

leadership in the saddle of

governance in the state.

Asiwaju Tinubu, after wide

consultations with all

interest groups and

political blocs in the state,

is optimistic that Gbeleyi

with his background can

effortlessly manage the

internally generated

revenue of over N18billion

of the state and continue

in the stride of previous

governments to make

Lagos an enviable

commercial base.

It takes a visionary leader

to fish out a promising

successor.

Asiwaju, from all

ramifications have proven

that he knows one when

he sees one. His ability

and confidence in his

choice of BRF as his

successor has proven his

insightful leadership. He

will not go wrong with

Ayo Gbeleyi.

According to reliable

sources, Gbeleyi, in

readiness for the task

ahead, has not only

received the nod of top

ans formidable

stakeholders in politics, he

has built a financial war

chest to prosecute his

electionering campaign.

His readiness from all

fronts, our sources hinted,

gives Asiwaju a strong

conviction that he is the

man for the job and other

contenders are

pretenders. He has also

built a formidable media

team to actualise his

dream.

For Gbeleyi, it has been a

calculated rise to the top.

His recent appointment on

the recommendation of

his immediate past boss,

the former Finance

Commissioner, Hon.

Tokunbo Abiru, the

express approval by the

Executive Governor

Babatunde Raji Fashola

and the state's Assembly

speak volume of his

character and disposition

towards public service.

With his record of

service, wisdom and

support from all

stakeholders and the

people of Lagos State,

Hon. Ayo Gbeleyi is

poised to steer the ship of

the state to greater

heights.

Oshiomhole Aplogises Over Comments To A Widow -

Oshiomhole apologises over

comments to a widow

on november 29, 2013 at 1:45

pm in news

Benin – Gov. Adams

Oshiomhole of Edo on Friday

apologised for the comments

he made to a widow in Benin

during an inspection tour on

Mission Road, in the state

capital, a fortnight ago.

Oshiomhole said that he now

regretted the comments which

had become the subject of

discourse in the social media.

The Governor, however, noted

that he made the comments in

anger.

Oshiomhole’s apology was

made when the leadership of

the Federation of Muslim

Women’s Association of Nigeria

(FOMWAN), paid him a courtesy

visit in Benin.

He noted that though the

challenge of modern times had

bestowed on the shoulders of

some women and single

mothers the status of bread

winners of their homes, such

should not be used as an

accuse to flout the laws.

The Governor urged the Muslim

women leaders to use their

offices to propagate the

essence of healthy living

among children and women in

the nation and the need to

maintain proper sanitary

conditions in their

neighbourhoods.

Oshiomhole lamented that the

challenge of widowhood had

also exposed children to

different temptations, adding

that there was the need for

society to be careful, to avoid

unwittingly creating more

problems for the nation.

He noted that money was not

the best thing that guaranteed

ones happiness, “but honesty

and selfless service.

The Governor added that if

Muslims and Christians were

adequately committed to their

religious doctrines, the world

would be a better place.

He urged the women to

propagate the message of

Islam through the nooks and

crannies of the nation, and to

also inculcate the values of

honesty in their followers.

Oshiomhole, however, assured

the association of

government’s support in

ensuring that its present

leadership made remarkable

progress and also consolidated

on the successes of their

predecessors.

Earlier, the FOMWAN National

President, Hajia Amina Omoti,

urged the state government to

look into the issue of the

teaching of Islamic Religious

Studies in public schools in the

state.

Omoti also solicited for

government’s moral and

financial support for the

effective running of the

association.

How I Co- ordinated Lagos Black Sunday Robbery –– Godogodo

His father was a gambler

who never really had time

to train him on the right

path and he ended up on

the wrong path, as one of

the most deadly armed

robbers in the history of

Nigeria - his name is

Godogodo!

Sunday, September 9,

2012, will remain indelible

in the minds of many

families in Lagos State,

who lost loved ones to the

brazen attack of a gang

of heavily armed robbers,

who laid siege to strategic

points in the state, killing

at least three policemen

and several other citizens,

while scores sustained

injuries.

But the arrest of the

members of the gang that

operated that day,

including the notorious

robbery czar, Abiodun

Ogunjobi, aka, Godogodo,

would bring relief to

relatives and friends of

those killed or injured that

day.

Meanwhile, Godogodo,

who was arrested by

operatives of the Special

Anti-Robbery Squad,

SARS, led by SP Abba

Kyari, on August 1, 2013,

has revealed how he

coordinated the bloody

operation.

Bureau de Change robbery

He gave chilling details of

how he led members of

the gang to cart away

millions of dollars from

bureau de change

operators in Agege and

Gbagada areas of Lagos.

According to Godogodo,

“On that fateful day, I

called one of my boys,

Sayeed Omolopa, to meet

me at AlfaBeach in Ajah,

and some other boys led

by Kasali and Ejike. “They

were about seven and my

boys were five. Yemi

Boss, who came with

Ejike, said we should go

to Agege and rob some

bureau de change

operators.

The agreement was that

everyone will get what he

lays his hands on. “We

used two vehicles and

over nine AK-47 rifles.

When we got to Agege,

some bureau de change

operators that saw us ran

to us thinking we wanted

to change money and we

opened fire on them and

ran into their shops to

pack all the money we

found. “In fact, we robbed

from shop to shop and we

also shot sporadically to

scare people. We shot at

people who tried to block

the road and prevent us

from moving.

I can’t count the number

of people killed in that

operation. “Wherever

people tried to block the

road, we opened fire on

them. The boys that went

with me for that job were

notorious, they were

difficult to control but they

all feared me. We made a

lot of money from the

operation “While we were

trying to escape, we met

a team of policemen

attached to the Rapid

Response Squad, RRS,

and we thought they were

after us.

On approaching them, we

opened fire on the van

and killed all the police in

it and collected their rifles

and escaped through

Lagos-Abekuta road.

“Money was not shared

after the operation

because everyone took

whatever he was able to

grab. When I got home I

realised that I made over

N500,000, but some days

later, I was informed that

one of my boys, Tosin,

made over N6 million

from the operation.

“Everybody made a lot of

money from the operation.

I didn’t border to read the

newspapers the next day

to know the extent of

damage but I knew many

people lost their lives in

that operation. You know,

as robbers, we do not go

for operations to kill but

we kill when we don’t

have option.” Why we

killed policemen

Godogodo also narrated

how he and members of

his gang killed four

policemen at Ajah, in

February 2013, snatching

three AK-47 rifles from

them.

According to Vanguard

report, he said he killed

the policemen because he

wanted to recover his nine

rifles seized by the SARS

operatives from one of his

boys, Tosin. Narrating the

incident, Godogodo said:

“After SARS operatives

collected nine of my rifles,

I was left with only two

AK-47 rifles and a pump

action rifle. “On that

fateful day, we went to

rob residents of Awoyaya

area in Ajah. I was with

Odun, Oluwole,Yinusa and

Sayeed Omolopa.

“We robbed house-to-

house and on our way

home, we saw a police

van and a policeman

behind the van was

sleeping, Odun suggested

that we attack them and

collect their rifles and I

obliged. “We drove a

Sports Utility Van and

approached them, opened

fire on the patrol van and

it veered off the road. We

went after it and killed all

the policemen in the van

and collected their rifles.

After that operation, we

went to AlfaBeach to cool

off.” The Abule Egba

killings Godogodo also

narrated how he killed a

Police Inspector and a

corporal at Abule Egba

area of Lagos.

According to him, “Ife and

Oleh brought the job, they

told me that we should go

and rob a man who had

just returned from London

with huge sums of money

and some drugs. “We

went to his house and

discovered that he was

not at home and we left in

annoyance and went on

to rob some people from

house-to-house.

“On our way out, we

spotted some policemen

at Oko-Oba police station,

they didn’t know that we

were robbers. We killed

them before collecting

their rifles. “Some few

months later, we snatched

a white Range Rover

Sport in Ikeja and two of

the occupants escaped

with their phones.

“We suspected that they

were going to call the

police. On arriving

Agidingbi Road, we

spotted two RRS men on

a motorbike and we

thought they were coming

after us. We slowed down,

by the time they got very

close to us, I opened the

window and fired rapid

shots at them, they fell

into the gutter with their

motorbike and I sent my

boys to get their rifles

before we drove off.

“When we got to Coca-

Cola junction, there was

serious traffic and we

decided to make a turn.

When we got to the spot

where the policemen fell,

we saw some people who

were trying to help them

and my boys opened fire

on them again.

“We managed to make our

way to Medical Road,

close to ComputerVillage,

but by then, the policemen

there had received

message of our

operations and the

moment they sighted us,

they opened fire and

damaged our tyres. “We

managed the tyres up to

Capitol Road. There was

traffic and I came out of

my vehicle to clear the

traffic and there was this

Toyota Camry following

us.

I didn’t know that there

was an armed mobile

policeman in it. When I

returned I discovered that

Kasali was struggling with

the mobile policeman who

was carrying a rifle. “I

fired some shots at the

policeman. He attempted

to run away, I chased him

and killed him on the spot

before picking his rifle.

We snatched another

vehicle and abandoned

the Range Rover Sport

2015: Why Professor Jega Must Go ––Buhari, Akande, Tinubu

Police barricade on their

way and the sun blazing

above, All Progressives

Congress (APC) leaders

marched on the

headquarters of the

Independent National

Electoral Commission in

Abuja on Thursday.

Leading the way were

former Head of State

Muhammadu Buhari, APC

Chairman Chief Bisi

Akande, former Lagos

State Governor Asiwaju

Bola Ahmed Tinubu,

defunct All Nigeria

Peoples Party (ANPP)

former chairman Chief

Ogbonnaya Onu and

many others.

But what exactly is their

mission and their

demands?

They demanded the

cancellation of the

November 16 Anambra

State governorship

election, resignation of

Prof Attahiru Jega, INEC

Chairman, and dissolution

of the management of the

electoral body. In a scene

reminiscent of the pro-

democracy struggle

between 1993 and 1998

during the military era, the

leaders trekked for about

five kilometrer from the

APC National Secretariat

in Blantyre Street, Wuse II,

Abuja to Zambezi

Crescent in Maitama

District where INEC is

located.

The initial stage of the

trek was piloted by Ogun

State Governor Ibikunle

Amosun and Ekiti State

Governor, Kayode Fayemi

and many members of the

National Assembly.

The “great trek” was later

co-ordinated by a former

National Secretary of the

defunct Congress for

Progressives Change,

Buba Galadima, an

engineer.

But when the procession

took off, Gen. Buhari and

other top leaders of APC

withstood the rigours of

standing in an open lorry

for the protest march.

Waving brooms – the

APC’s symbol – they

brought traffic to a

standstill for about two

hours on the ever-busy

Ademola Adetokunbo

Street in Wuse II.

Revolutionary songs

blared from mounted

speakers.

Many workers in the

business district

abandoned offices to

identify with the

protesters.

They held leaflets and

placards with the

following inscriptions:

“Anambrarians, Nigerians

are with you”; “Anambra

Election: Jega, not the

INEC Messiah, Resign

Now”;

“2015, No hope with

Jega”; “No Supplementary

Election in Anambra”;

“Cancel Anambra Election

Now”;

and “Election Fraud Must

Stop Now”.

The procession, which

started at about 10.30pm,

berthed at the INEC

headquarters at about

12.03pm.

The situation turned into a

battle front with the

protesters at one end and

combat ready soldiers

and policemen at another

end. Journalists were left

in between.

At the end of the day,

their message was

passed.
