@ZenithBank is there any reason why some @FG staff haven't receive their monthly salary acknowledging the fact that you are among the first banks that pay salaries to worker. What's the technicality involved this time

PDP CRISIS: MY POSITION
1. Since after the 2023 General election, the PDP has been wantonly swinging from one part of a slippery precipice to another, owing fundamentally to dishonesty and lack of trust amongst its key stakeholders. To stem this ugly trend, efforts have been made to arrest this pernicious virus of dishonesty and treachery and enthrone fidelity to agreements with a view to stabilizing the party and moving it forward.
2. To this end, a meeting of the G5 was held in Lagos. In that meeting, I made it clear to the Governor of Oyo State, HE. Seyi Makinde, that he was the architect of our problems, pointing out to him that non-adherence to agreements reached was the bane of the party, and that he was the chief culprit of this anomaly. At the end of the meeting, we resolved to bury the hatchet and make progress.
3. As a follow-up to the aforementioned meeting, there was an expanded meeting in Abuja involving HE. Seyi Makinde, HE. Umaru Fintri, HE. Bala Mohammed, HE, Bukola Saraki, and I in Saraki’s guest house. In that meeting, I made it clear that I had no personal problems with HE. Bala Mohammed, except that he hides under the facade of Chairman of PDP Governors Forum to serially renege on agreements. Tensions rose mightily in the meeting and it took all concerned to calm frayed nerves. At the end of the meeting, we came to some resolutions, including:
a. That Senator Samuel Anyanwu remains the National Secretary of the PDP in tandem with the Supreme Court judgement.
b. All legal matters relating to Rivers State must be withdrawn by the National Legal Adviser.
c. The suit on the State of emergency be withdrawn forthwith.
d. Nobody should deviate from the agreements so reached.
In the light of the foregoing, they pleaded with me to attend the stakeholders’ meeting at the Bauchi Government Lodge, regardless of my many engagements. I attended the meeting and clearly reiterated my earlier concerns, and to this end and in order to resolve all other lingering and pending issues, a committee was formed, headed by HE. Bukola Saraki.
4. It is disheartening to note that even before the Bukola Saraki Reconciliation Committee began its work, the gentleman’s agreement we reached at Saraki’s Guest House was already being crudely violated. To my chagrin, Seyi Makinde had connived with Peter Mba of Enugu State to orchestrate the summoning of the meeting of so-called South-East leaders to recommend that if Ude Okoye was not adopted as Secretary, they would pull out of the PDP. I have since granted an interview to the effect that, that resolution of the South-East leaders can not hold.
Again, Seyi Makinde organized some people in the National Secretariat to insist that the Deputy National Secretary should act as National Secretary, in violation of the agreement earlier reached. To attempt to give credence to this farce, a letter was written by the Deputy National Secretary, calling for a meeting of the NEC of the party. Furthermore, the letter confirming the candidacy of the Governorship candidate of the party in the forthcoming Governorship elections in Anambra State, duly signed by the National Secretary, Senator Anyanwu and the acting National Chairman, was portrayed as rejected by the party through a rebuttal letter signed by the National Publicity Secretary, acting on the orders of Seyi Makinde and Peter Mba. All these actions are in complete violation of the agreements reached and would not do the party any good whatsoever. On the 24th of May 2025, in Jos, for instance, a well publicized and properly attended zonal elective congress of the PDP was aborted because the letter inviting INEC to the congress was signed by the Deputy National Secretary of the party. INEC refused to attend because the proper signatory recognized by law, that is Senator Samuel Anyanwu was not a signatory to the invitation notice. This is undeniably distasteful, provocative and annoying, to say the least.

Gaskiya Atiku should allow a younger candidate(Sayi Makinde) this time. Let's try a new dimension. But if Atiku decide to run again...humm...he happens to be the strongest candidate in PDP and will get on the ballot. Ki olorun sha nuwa
If we were all like Yoruba people on Earth, there would be no war, fight, hatred, and animosity. Everywhere will just be cruise, party, fun, and enjoyment. Yoruba people are the only ethnicity on Earth that I have seen give their children a name like enjoyment. Yes! When you see a Yoruba person bearing Jaiye, that name is the opposite of Abiku. It is a name encouraging the child to live and chop life. That is their mentality.
That is why everyone in Nigeria naturally gravitates to Lagos and the Southwest. To go and Jaiye! I live in America. Do you know how other Africans send invites to their parties? They add the following:
'The Nigerians will be there!'
Go ahead, Google it. By Nigerians, they mean Yoruba! Anywhere they are on planet Earth, people just love them. Even their language is fun to listen to. A Yoruba person can be speaking (not singing), and you will just feel like dancing. They don't take life too seriously. If a Yoruba dies, there is a party. If a Yoruba lives, there is a party. Ariya, miliki and igbadun is their way of life. I guarantee you, you can't listen to Shinamania, Destiny by King Sunny Ade, Miliki Express by Chief Commander Ebenezer Obey, Mo So Rire by Father and Son Dairo, Dami Duro by Davido, etc., and not be immediately lifted in spirit.
May we all learn to see the brighter side of life as the Yoruba. In Yeshua's Name.
