EFCC Has Been Ordered By The Presidency To Arrest Tinubu – APC Claims


Nigeria Informer

The All Progressives Congress, have alleged that the Presidency are planning to use the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission to arrest it’s national leader, Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
The party revealed this in a statement by its National Publicity Secretary, Lai Mohammed. Excerpts from the statement below:
“Without mincing words, we are aware that a RED ALERT alert has been sent to the EFCC to arrest the National Leader of our party, the All Progressives Congress (APC), Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, on trumped-up charges anytime from now.”

“In addition, anyone who is suspected of being a financier of the APC is to be arrested, all in efforts to decapitate the main opposition party which is undoubtedly cruising to victory in the forthcoming elections.”
“And as part of the offensive against the APC in the days ahead, there is a plan to freeze the accounts of companies, individuals and organisations believed to be financing the party, with the ultimate objective of crippling the party so it won’t be able to sustain its activities, like paying its agents on Election Day and other logistics.”

“I am sure the question playing on your lips are: Why would anyone want to arrest APC leaders at this time? What have they done to warrant their arrest? Will there still be a level playing ground for the elections if the main opposition party is decimated just days to the polls?”

“Well, we can tell you that this planned arrest is orchestrated by the same people who have sponsored a series of protests to the EFCC, on the basis of the same documentary against Asiwaju which they also masterminded. It may sound like an intrigue, but that is exactly what it is.”

Boko Haram: Spouses of Nigerian Troops Block Husbands’ Deployment to Gwosa


Nigeria Informer : Dozens of women and children on Saturday forcefully stopped military trucks from ferrying their husbands and fathers to the Boko Haram-seized Gwosa by locking the exit gates of a barracks in Borno State, demanding quality fighting equipment for the soldiers.

Scores of soldiers have been killed by Boko Haram in Borno State in the last few months, and many blame the inferior weapons Nigerian troops are equipped with to fight brutal insurgents. Reports say nearly 60 soldiers were killed last Wednesday in Gwosa, taken over by Boko Haram after hundreds of heavily-armed militants swooped on the border town.

After locking the gates Saturday, the women and children placed themselves as wedges before the trucks that were to drive out of Giwa Barracks of the 21 armoured brigade Maiduguri, witnesses said.

    “We don’t want to be turned another set of widows, give our husbands modern and better arms, weapons and vehicles or they go nowhere!” one woman was quoted by a source as saying.



The reaction came after nearly 60 soldiers killed in Gwoza and Damboa- both in Borno State- were given a mass burial at the Maimalari Barracks Maiduguri. The military authority at the 7-Division of the Nigeria Army received a mandate to send more troops to rescue Gwoza. Efforts to stop the women from protesting failed as they stood their grounds all day, demanding that the General Officer Commanding, GOC, of the brigade, address them.

After defying all entreaties, the women turned on the barracks’ Regiment Sergeant Major and the Garrison Commander, and almost lynched them for trying to prevent the stand out, witnesses at the barracks told PREMIUM TIMES.

The women and children also blockaded the roads leading to the barracks with stones and sticks, while some sat in front of the barracks’ gate.

Some soldiers at the barracks said they were in support of the action. One soldier told journalists:

    “We are ever ready to tackle Boko Haram terrorists but our superior officers are the ones killing us by not giving us the right arms to execute the war. How could I go and face Boko Haram with AK47 that is charged with only three cartridges when the enemy is brandishing modern GPMG, AA, RPG and so on.

    Most of our soldiers die every day like fowls because of faulty deployment and yet when you complain they only tell you to obey the last order”.

Another soldier said:

     “We are being pushed to death because we usually run out of ammunition or our weapons would fail us during an operation, while the Boko Haram who came fully kitted with better arms and extra supplies would continue to pick on us like insects."

Another soldier said:

    “We are ready to finish Boko Haram in one week because we have the courage to do that if we are given the right arms and ammunition”.

With the sit in lasting al through Saturday, the hope of Gwoza people trapped up in the mountains diminished amid reports or some dying of hunger and thirst as at Saturday evening.

Ebola Virus Disease Hits Victoria Island Lagos, NNPC Clinic Closed Down


Nigeria Informer | Another case of Ebola Virus infection has been reported in Lagos.
A patient who reportedly visited the same hospital where a Liberian Health official, Patrick Sawyer was diagnosed with Ebola Virus disease last month had forced the Ministry of health to shut down the NNPC hospital at Muri Okunola area of Victoria Island today.

According to Health Minister, Onyebuchi, the clinic located at Muri Okunola area of Victoria Island admitted a patient with symptoms of EVD and Ministry of Health was contacted.
This was made known by Onyebuchi during a courtesy visit to Governor Fashola at the State House in Ikeja. He said the affected clinic had been shut down.

“The situation is still under investigation and by tomorrow, the result will be out. We need to confirm that. Normally, once someone has been managed and there is a suspicion, there are precautions that will be taken.
“We want to decontaminate and when you are decontaminating, like what we did to First Consultant Medical Centre, you close to enable you to go in, decontaminate it and reopen. So, we are going to decontaminate and reopen the place, so, it is temporary closed,” he said.

Every case of Ebola in this country has been somehow linked to the late Patrick Sawyer.

3000 Nigerians Flee To Cameroon, 14 Boko Haram Member Jailed In Cameroon


Naija News | According to Cameroonian state broadcaster, CRTV, a military court has handed over prison sentences of up to 20 years to 14 Boko Haram members.

The defendants, who were arrested in March after the discovery of a weapons cache, admitted to being part of the Nigerian extremist group at a “public hearing” in the northern town of Maroua, said the report.

They had been charged with the illegal possession of firearms and ammunition and of plotting an insurrection.

“Each of the Boko Haram members (was) sentenced to between 10 and 20 years” in prison, said the report, adding that the sentences cannot be appealed.

More than 3,000 Nigerians fleeing Boko Haram attacks have taken refuge in the Cameroon town of Fotokol, according to a municipal official.

“We are worried about infiltrations” by the Islamists among the refugees, a police officer in the town said.

Rapper Munachi Abii: ‘Women Are Tough To Work With In The Music Industry


Celebrity Gist : In a recent interview, ex-MBGN and rapper Munachi the beauty goddess speaks about her short break from music and working with women in the music industry.

Read Excerpts below:

On her break from music: It wasn’t too long, and nothing actually happened, I just decided to take a break. It’s not everytime you have to release songs, you have to take time out in between.

 If you continue doing songs all the time, before you know it, you will crash and it is happening to a lot of people right now without them even knowing it. So I had to take some time away to study people, the environment, and the music industry to know those that love and hate me.

So that’s what I did. I took a step back and it wasn’t too long and I also used the time to work on my tracks and work on myself as well. So that is why I decided to keep quiet On working with people in the industry: To me everybody is cool to work with
.
 It’s just that women are tough to work with. I don’t know why we are like that, working with the men is easier because they know what they want but with the females, it is different. It only works well when you are friends.

O Shet!! World Cup Trophy Damaged By Mystery Germany Player


Panic instilled in the mind of a player as the chief of Germany’s football association (DFB) has disclosed that one of the team’s most respected players has damaged their World Cup trophy.

Joachim Low’s side defeated Argentina 1-0 in the final after extra-time to win the fourth world title in their history, following on from 1954, 1974 and 1990 victories.

The Germany team were welcomed home from Brazil to jubilant scenes and toured Berlin with the trophy during midweek – but may have celebrated a little bit too hard as their World Cup trophy has been damaged by an unknown member of the team.

“At one point, a small piece of our World Cup trophy was chipped off,” DFB president Wolfgang Niersbach is quoted by Die Welt as saying. “But do not worry! We have specialists on the case who can fix it.

“We have investigated persistently who it was that damaged the trophy, but the investigation was concluded without a result.”

Luckily for Germany, the cup they have been given by Fifa is just a replica of the World Cup trophy they were presented with at the Maracana on July 13, which is estimated to be worth over €10 million (£8m).

Fifa – it would seem wisely – tends not to trust football associations with the trophy after the original World Cup award, the Jules Rimet trophy, had a history of being a target for thieves before being stolen for good in 1983 from Brazil.EEya!!

Shocking !!! Jihadists Stone Woman To Death For ‘Ad*ltery’

She was stoned to death as soon as the sentence was passed on to her,what a hard fate to face in life.
Shocking news reaching us says that a woman accused of committing ad*ltery in the northern Syrian province of Raqa has been stoned to death by Jihadists.

According to the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, this will be the first “execution” of its kind by the Islamic State (IS) group in Syria, which has proclaimed the establishment of an Islamic “caliphate” dominating Syria and Iraq.

The observatory said, “The Islamic State carried out its first sentence of death by stoning against a woman in Tabaqa, accusing her of ad*ltery,”

The report was confirmed by an activist Abu Ibrahhim, who said the stoning took place in a public square in the Tabaqa market area on Thursday evening.

“This is the first time that this has happened here,” added Abu Ibrahim.

A second activist Hadi Salameh, said the woman was reportedly in her thirties, but that few details were known about her except that she was killed after sentencing by an IS religious court.

“The situation is unbearable. Stoning is the worst punishment history regcorgnises. A swift death is more merciful most preferable,” Salameh spoke to journalists via the Internet, using a pseudonym for security reasons.

“The woman’s family did not know the sentence was going to be carried out at this time,” said Salameh.

He said residents are “terrified” of IS, but fear the consequences of reacting to its harsh methods.
No body deserve this kind of dubious act.

APC chides Jonathan over delayed meeting with Chibok girls’ parents

The All Progressives Congress (APC) has described as an embarrassment the fact that it took a 17-year-old girl-child education campaigner, Pakistani Malala Yousafzai, to visit and convince President Goodluck Jonathan to agree to a meeting with representatives of the parents of the kidnapped schoolgirls.
 
‘’President Jonathan, who has already embarrassed himself and the entire people of Nigeria by his inexplicable failure to visit Chibok since the girls were abducted over 90 days ago, has compounded the embarrassment and insulted Nigerians by waiting for Malala to goad him to meet with the girls’ parents, not in Chibok but in Abuja,’’ the party said in a statement issued in Lagos on Thursday by its National Publicity Secretary, Lai Mohammed.

It said after the meeting failed, because the parents were not properly informed and invited, the Presidency turned around to blame the opposition and the patriotic and selfless Nigerians who have been campaigning daily, under the #BringBackOurGirls group.

‘’Fortunately, and to the eternal discomfiture of the Presidency, the Chibok community has said the decision not to meet with President Jonathan in Abuja was theirs and theirs alone, and that they took that decision because their sole reason for coming to Abuja was to meet with Malala, and not the President, who did not invite them anyway.

‘’With this explanation, one would have expected a Presidency that has regard for the truth to immediately retract its earlier panic statement, which it issued to save face after what was nothing but a PR gimmick blew up in their face, and apologise to the opposition and the #BringBackOurGirls group that were unjustly pilloried by them.

‘’Instead, the Presidency has persisted in its distortion of the truth, for which they have now become infamous, even as a new date has been agreed for the meeting. This is unfortunate, condemnable and irresponsible,’’ APC said.

‘’If indeed, as the Presidency claimed earlier, that the opposition was behind the earlier refusal by the parents and escaped girls not to see the President, what has then happened to make them change their minds? Has the opposition now asked them to meet with the President?’’

Checkout Photos Of The New Blackberry “Passport” Smartphone



It no longer news that BlackBerry is seriously struggling to remain relevant in the smartphone market, and right now they have come up with two new products that will  hopefully reverse its fortunes. While the company has shown off both the new Classic and the Passport, it’s the latter that has garnered the most attention.
Until now, we didn’t know much about the Passport other than the fact that it featured a wide QWERTY keyboard and an unusual 4.5” 1440×1440 display. For the BlackBerry fans out there that cling on to any new release from the Canadian company, CrackBerry has posted a user-written, pre-release review of the Passport.
On the “square” screen:

The screen is one of such elegance, that it even made the most diehard iPhone user smile. It’s got one of the sharpest screens out there and the UI that felt cramped on the Q10 now is unleashed in a fashion that renders you hopelessly in love…


The screen is everything on the BlackBerry Passport. They finally figured it out. It’s the focus here and also takes over a large amount of the duties of the keyboard. At a whopping 1440×1440 pixels, the screen is pleasantly bright and gives everything more space.
Processors specs are unavailable at this point, but other hardware features were revealed:

This model has 3 GB of RAM and 32 GB of on-board memory, though I did add a 64 GB SD card myself. Finally, there is an easily accessible nano SIM slot to allow for easy SIM switching without the battery interfering. With it having an internal battery which lasts forever, BlackBerry put the SD card slot and SIM slot on the top of the phone inside of a removable panel.

About that new keyboard:

So how does this work? It works in a fashion never witnessed before. The symbols, characters, numbers and everything else is on screen and intuitively changes depending on where you are. If you are on the compose panels contact list, you will get the numeric buttons on the screen and if on the body portion, the symbols and character can be invoked.


This was of course a prototype device and not every feature was functioning properly. It was also running an older version of BlackBerry’s flagship operating system (10.3.0.428), so performance and software features should be further fleshed out by the time it is officially released.
If you are a BlackBerry lover then you ought to be very happy and excited by now.

Must Read :Baby Boy Fell Into Boiling Soup Pot After Owu Masquerade Chased Girl In Owerri Imo State


Chaos and panic rocks Amakohia Ubi community in Owerri West Council Area of Imo State on Monday, as a five-month-old baby boy slipped from the hands of his minder, a 10-year-old girl, who was being chased by a masquerade and fell inside a large boiling pot of soup.
An eye witness told Daily Sun that the 10-year-old girl, who also suffered severe injuries, was fleeing from one of the “ Owu” masquerades that had chased her in front of a house while carrying the deceased toddler and as she ran to the back of the house, she stumbled and the toddler slipped from her hands and fell into a pot of soup being prepared by a food vendor.
According to the witness, the masquerade, on realising the havoc caused, took to his heels.
However, efforts to revive the baby proved abortive as the baby was pronounced dead by a doctor, after some good Samaritans rushed him to a nearby hospital.
When Daily Sun visited the scene, parents of the deceased baby were still in a state of shock and refused to speak to the press as sympathisers besieged their residence.
The Amakohia masquerade festival also known as “Owu” is the most dreaded festival in Owerri West Council as it is characterised by display of charms, constant flogging and harassment. Meanwhile, the festival, which normally lasts a month, has been temporarily suspended as a result of the incident.
When contacted, the Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO), Andrew Enwerem (DSP), said he had no details of the incident yet.

Chibok Parents Turn Down Jonathan’s Meeting Request 90 Days After Abduction


Ninety days after the abduction of Chibok girls by Boko Haram insurgents, the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, Goodluck Ebele Jonathan finally summoned up courage to meet their parents.
However, the request was turned down by the mourning parents over his untimely intervention.
President Jonathan’s scheduled meeting was cancelled after the parents refused to see him.
According to his spokesman Doyin Okupe, the meeting was called off when none of the parents agree to attend the meeting scheduled for July 22nd.
“It is with great regret that I announce the cancellation of the meeting with 12 parents of the abducted Chibok children, as well as five of the brave girls who escaped from the terrorist organization Boko Haram,” Jonathan said in a statement e-mailed by Okupe.
Why didn’t he schedule the meeting earlier…I don’t see any point in him calling for the meeting again. He has failed in this regard.
Jonathan called for the meeting after Malala told him to see them.
So if Malala didn’t come to Nigeria, President Jonathan ‘ll just abandon those parents like that???Cmon this is wrong…. Who are his advisers???
May God comfort those innocent parents.

BREAKING!!! NFF President Arrested as He Lands Abuja from Brazil


Reports reaching us reveals  that the President of Nigeria Football
Federation, NFF, Aminu Maigari was arrested in Abuja early hours of Friday, 4 July, 2014 by the Nigeria State Security Services (SSS).
According to sources reports, Maigari was arrested at the Nnamdi Azikiwe Airport in Abuja by security operatives after he returned to the country with the Super Eagles.
Analysts are already saying the arrest of the football boss may be connected to the sacking of the entire board of the NFF by a court in Jos, Plateau State on Monday, 30 June, 2014.
According to the court order, Maigari and his board members were restrained from acting as administrators of the NFF.
The suit was filed by former Nigeria Premier League chairman Rumson Baribote, who requested the court to restrain Maigari and all the committee and congress of the NFF from managing the affairs of football matters in Nigeria.
Hon. Justice P. L Lot of the Plateau State High Court sitting in Jos granted the Order of Interlocutory Injunction restraining the president of the NFF, the executive committee members as well as the NFF Congress from running affairs of Nigerian football pending the determination of the Motion on Notice before the court.
It was reported that Maigari have queries to answer with the security agencies one of which was the issue of his alleged fake grade III Teachers certificate with which he contested the office of NFF president.
As at the time of compiling this report, the NFF has not released any statement on the arrest of Maigari neither deny the news of the fake certificate scandal charged against him.
Critics are now wondering if this development has anything to do with the ouster of the Super Eagles in Brazil.
Meanwhile, Channels TV reports that coach Stephen Keshi led the Eagles into the country in the early hours of today.
The Nigerian national football team were ousted from the Mundial after they weredefeated 0-2 by France in the round of 16of the football showpiece.
In an interview with sports writers at the airport, coach Keshi said the team would have loved to progress beyond the round of 16 but expressed gratitude to God for the outing in Brazil.
When asked on media reports of his resignation immediately after the match against France, Keshi was reported to have said that he had not resigned.
It could be recalled that it was reported on Thursday, 3 July, 2014, that Keshi had been offered a new contract by the Nigerian football governing body.
The report also added that Keshi had not said whether he would accept the offer or not.

Genevieve Nnaji On Acting:’I don’t think I can return to the blandness and mediocrity that characterised Nollywood’


In a recent interview with Punch, Nollywood actress, Genevieve Nnaji explains why she hasn’t been featuring in nollywood movies these days.
 She said:
“I guess I haven’t found the right script yet. Creativity and depth are the qualities that I look out for in a script. In the beginning, the movie industry emphasized quantity but things are changing and there is an improvement in trend. I am among the people who advocate for the improvement of the industry.
So said, I am constantly watching out for the kind of stories I take part in. “I am in support of movies that show a great deal of professionalism and creativity. Having practised my art in international and professionally produced stories like ‘Ije’; ‘Mirror boy;’ and ‘Tango with me’, I don’t think I can return to the blandness and mediocrity that characterised Nollywood in the past.
 I have respected myself as an artiste. I think the success stems from the fact that I have given acting my all.” she said Genevieve, one of the highest paid Nollywood actresses is an Etisalat Ambassador, Amstel Malta ambasador amongst mouth watering other endorsement deals while speaking on her career said:
 “I don’t see myself as a special person beyond the fact that God has blessed me with a talent that is working for me and I am forever thankful to Him”. Genevieve who has featured in over 80 movies some of which are block busters like Half of A Yellow Sun, Tango with Me, Ije, Single and Married amongst others.
 She has gained recognition not only in African countries but also internationally. She was the first Nigerian actress to be profiled on the Oprah Winfrey show and labelled by the talk show icon as the, ‘Julia Roberts of Africa.’ She has also appeared on the Cable Network News programme, African Voices. She was recently chosen as Connector of the day on CNN’s Connect the World programme.
