Wike on why they couldn’t allow Governor Fubara to seek a second term:
There was a time we all agreed to let bygones be bygones, but something fundamental came up in politics. We all met and said if we allow this, there are those who want to see that we are no longer politically relevant. Two, there are external forces who want to hijack Rivers State, we should not allow them hijack Rivers State, they are those who see Rivers State as a cash cow.
This man from Lagos, Bode George, when they talk about corruption, ask him about the house he is living in Maitama, is it not Rivers State money?

Watch the clip of the visit of Catholic Bishops to Goodluck Jonathan in 2014, led by Archbishop Ignatius Kaigama. Watch how measured he was, and he even acknowledged the efforts of the government and offered to help displaced people with the resources of the church.
This was the peak of Boko Haram, when Christmas Day bombings were a recurrence. When churches were bombed weekly. St Theresa, St. John, and St. Patrick Cathedrals were all bombed. We couldn't enter the church on Sundays without going through body scanners. 200 churches and 10 dioceses were affected. 90,000 members displaced with over 1,000 unalived, according to the ACN International report.
This other Bishop has been against the president since his Catholic brother emerged as candidate. His candidate is fond of dragging the Catholic church into politics. He did it in Anambra and he has brought it to the National level.

"Davido cannot win an election for his uncle; people have moved past that... As I speak to you now, the government of Osun State is dominated by no fewer than seven members of the Adeleke family. Consequently, people are asking themselves: Is this a government that exists to serve the people of Osun State, or is it a government that is serving its own family?" — Dr. Misbau Lateef
He was a former president… yet on this day, he sat before a panel to answer for the past.
In a moment many Nigerians never expected to witness, former President Olusegun Obasanjo faced tough questions over one of the most controversial incidents in Nigeria’s history the military invasion of Fela Anikulapo Kuti’s home.
The setting was the Oputa Panel, a national effort to confront past injustices and seek answers.
Standing firm was human rights lawyer Femi Falana, known for challenging power, no matter how high.
The question was simple… but heavy:
What really happened when soldiers stormed Kalakuta Republic?
For years, stories had circulated of force, destruction, and an operation that left lasting scars, including the injury of Fela’s mother.
Now, face to face, the past was no longer hidden.
It was being spoken… publicly.
This was about accountability.
About history confronting power.
This is Part 1… and what unfolds next will make you question even more.

"Atiku is simply being mischievous. Having served as Vice President in charge of the economy, we are well aware of his track record regarding the privatization of the economy... Regarding our current economic situation, things have improved to the extent that the percentage of oil revenue used to fund the budget has decreased significantly. Some reports suggest that the non-oil sector is now funding about 40% of the budget." — Analyst Biodun Sowunmi
"Nigeria has stabilized, now on the rise..... I haven’t borrowed a dime since I became Governor....."

How was a coup bankrolled?
More than ₦8.2 billion reportedly flowed into a single company account in just weeks.
Investigators say the funds came from contract proceeds, bank facilities and third-party transfers before part of the money allegedly entered the failed coup plot.

BREAKING: Former Minister of Youth and Sports, Solomon Dalung, has accused ADC chieftain Kashim Imam of creating problems within the party in Plateau State by allegedly favouring Muslims and certain ethnic groups.
In a 13-minute video, Dalung reminded Kashim Imam of his family's political history, claiming that when the Northern People's Congress (NPC) denied his father a ticket to contest in Borno State during the First Republic, Joseph Sarwuan Tarka (J.S. Tarka) of the United Middle Belt Congress (UMBC) gave him refuge in Benue and sponsored him for election to the National Assembly.
Dalung said: "Your father was a Muslim, while J.S. Tarka was a Christian, yet he never discriminated against him. It is therefore disappointing that you are being accused of promoting ethnic and religious bias in your political activities."
He concluded with a strong message to Kashim Imam: "Do not allow your personal interests to destroy the ADC in Plateau State."
At this juncture, I'm convinced that some people are no longer speaking as opposition figures or offering genuine advice. They are simply crying out for attention from the Presidency, hoping that if they make enough noise, they might eventually be invited to the table.
Otherwise, who in their right mind advises a man to strengthen, fund or empower the same people who are plotting his downfall?
That is the equivalent of asking a man to supply bullets to his enemies and then act surprised when those bullets are fired at him.
Everybody seems not to be normal again in the name of attention and politics..

I'm sorry I came in about 15 minutes late because I was stuck in traffic at Onitsha. Today is a Monday, and to have traffic at Onitsha on a Monday, the Monday sit-at-home is over.

We cannot create the kind of jobs we want with all of us using foreign or imported goods. I look in this room, and I see suits from Europe, America, and China. If all us 247 million Nigerians wear only made-in-Nigeria, more than 10 million jobs will be created.
