The cowardice of one man

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) on Monday described the Leader of Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu’s threat to attack South East Governors as cowardly and an act of desperation.

Chairman of Ebonyi State chapter of the party, Onyekachi Nwebonyi, stated this in a statement he issued in Abakaliki, Ebonyi State capital. He said Mr Kanu is not a freedom fighter but a businessman out to make money from Igbo politicians and businessmen.

The party also said real freedom fighters don’t run away but stay and fight to achieve their aim.

Chai. Make una no vex Mazi Kanu o. The man fit vex fast-forward the date wey him dey plan to come lead the ‘Israelites’ out of the land of captivity.

 

See no evil, sabi no evil

Imo State Governor, Emeka Ihedioha, has said that his association with Chika Augustine Odionyemma, one of the 78 Nigerians indicted in the United States by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) last Thursday, was purely on the basis of their common Imo nativity.

Speaking on the issue, which had dominated the social media over the weekend, Izuchukwu Akwarandu, aide on New Media to the Governor of Imo State, on Monday debunked the speculation that Odionyemma sponsored the election of Governor Emeka Ihedioha.

The governor’s aide said, “He (Odionyemma) is an Imo son and it was in that capacity that the governor attended the programmes he organised. Moreover, those programmes were meant to empower the people and you know that the governor is a man of the people.”

LOL. Nobody dey like stain him white shirt. And especially not at this time wey Ihedioha wan knack Okorocha serious akpako.

 

The pursuit of passport

The Comptroller-General of the Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS), Muhammed Babandede, has admitted the high rate of corruption in the NIS but blamed the scarcity of booklets for passports as a major factor.

Babandede said this during an interview on Channels Television’s Sunrise Daily programme on Monday.

He subsequently apologised to Nigerians for their bad experiences at the passport offices nationwide but urged applicants to make use of the agency’s online services as this would reduce the rate of extortion.

Mtcheew. All these talk. Make una rectify unaselves quickly make person comot from this country biko.

 

Dear corps members, OYO is now your name – NYSC

The Director General of the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC), Brigadier General Shuaibu Ibrahim has warned that the Corps would not pay ransom for any kidnapped corps member.

General Ibrahim made the declaration on Sunday when he paid an unannounced visit to corps members deployed to Katsina and Borno states who are currently undergoing their orientation programmes in Katsina State.

He consequently advised corps members to be security-conscious and be mindful of their movements. He also advised them to cultivate the habit of retiring for the night by 6:00 pm.

LOL. Corpers, shebi una don hear o? No sneaking out to town to groove. No going out to charge phones or laptops at night. NYSC don clear una doubt now: people wey dey struggle to pay N19, 800, shey na ransom dem go pay?

 

For the love of Rohr

Super Eagles coach Gernot Rohr says he feels loved by Nigerians, a major reason he’s attached to the country and the national team. But the German, who holds a French passport, admits that there’s a section of Nigerians from whom he “doesn’t feel this love.”

The German led the Eagles to a third-place finish at last month’s Africa Cup of Nations in Egypt but claims “one category” of people didn’t show him love especially after the AFCON.

“We have difference between Francophone countries and Anglophone countries but I didn’t have any problem adapting (in Nigeria) because I was welcomed by everybody, not only in the team but the staff, and also from Nigerians,” he said. “When I go out, I feel this love, I feel it everywhere. The only people I don’t feel this love from, there is only one category especially after the AFCON, and you know who it is.”

Hmmm. Oga Rohr, better win AFCON next time if not, NFF will do you very strong thing.
