ANGRY POLICEMEN THREATENS ELECTIONS OVER UNPAID ALLOWANCES.

Threats from some angry police officers to jeopardise the forthcoming polls, over the non-payment of their salary arrears by the authorities are perilous. The angry cops are 15,000 officers promoted from the ranks of sergeant to inspector; and from inspector to assistant superintendent of police in December 2013. Their posture is dangerous and could be contagious. This crisis should be resolved in their favour before March 28, when the presidential ballot will be held.

At a recent news conference where they ventilated their grievances, through their spokesmen, they said the authorities only paid them salaries of their new ranks beginning from January 2015, without any word on the arrears that had accumulated for 13 months. As a result, they vowed to work for the “highest bidder” during the elections. This must be cheery news for our debauched politicians who have reportedly stolen and bought permanent voter cards for rigging.

CHIBOK GIRLS ARE WELL & ALIVE - PRESIDENT JONATHAN SPEAKS

President Goodluck Jonathan has expressed confidence that the over 200 schoolgirls abducted by Boko Haram in their hostel   in Chibok, Borno State last year are still alive.

Jonathan, who also said that his chance of winning the March 28 presidential poll was slimmer than in 2011, based his position on the fact that terrorists would naturally   display the corpses of the girls if they had been killed.

He spoke while featuring on Kakaaki, a breakfast programme on a private television station, African Independent Television.

BUHARI IS BACK FROM THE UNITED KINGDOM!!!!!!!

The presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Muhammadu Buhari, has returned to Nigeria from the United Kingdom. He arrived Abuja Friday morning after about 10 days in London. 

Efforts to reach the spokesperson of the APC Presidential Campaign Organisation, Garba Shehu, were not successful as he did not pick calls to his mobile telephone. He did return the calls or respond to a text message to him.

Mr. Buhari’s trip to the U.K. had been a major subject of controversy as some supporters of President Goodluck Jonathan, his main challenger in the March 28 presidential election, accused him of embarking on a secret medical trip abroad.

EPIC - SAUDI COURT SENTENCES BRUTAL GANG RAPE VICTIM TO 200 LASHES AND CUSTODIAL SENTENCE. #SAYNOTORAPE.

According to Sharia Law, a Saudi Arabian woman must be accompanied by a male guardian at all times in public, something the 19 year old victim did not obey when she went to meet a friend, according to website Live Buddhism.

While in a car with a student friend, retrieving a picture, two men got into the vehicle and drove them to a secluded area. She said she was raped there by seven men, three of whom also attacked her friend.

The Shi’ite Muslim woman had initially been sentenced to 90 lashes after being convicted of violating the Kingdom’s religious diktats on segregation of the sexes, where woman are treated as second class citizens.

THE FIRSTLADY IS RIGHT, BUHARI IS BRAIN DEAD - FEMI FANI KAYODE

Chief Femi Fani Kayode, the notorious double mouthed spokesperson of the PDP Presidential campaign organization, Femi Fani-Kayode, has defended the recent remarks by first lady Patience Jonathan, that APC Presidential candidate, Gen Buhari is old and brain dead.

At a press conference in Abuja today, Fani-Kayode said Mrs Jonathan only spoken the bitter truth.

"The First Lady has spoken in a courageous and forthright manner and, most important of all, she has spoken the bitter truth. Instead of crying like spoilt little brats and complaining, the APC and the Buhari Campaign Organisation should live with that bitter truth and leave her alone. She has every right to express herself in any way that she deems fit and she is entitled to her opinion.

PETALS OF BLOOD ON THE CAMPAIGN TRAIN. PLEASE READ.

Why are we so blessed? Nigerians have a crop of politicians who love the people so much; that they are ready to maim and kill their opponents in the bid to give the people good governance. To these merchants of violence, the road to the soap and ballot boxes must be painted with blood. And because flying bullets do not discriminate, innocent bystanders unlucky to be near a battlefront when politicians go to war are game. Since the political campaigns kicked off, tension has enveloped the landscape like an aura. So concerned were all stakeholders in the Nigerian project that a peace accord was signed between President Goodluck Jonathan and his main challenger, General Muhammadu Buhari (retd). In spite of that accord, violence unleashed by political thugs has been the order of the day. On three different occasions, the campaign train of President Jonathan has been attacked in the north. Perhaps bloodshed was averted because the security agencies exercised a lot of restraint. They probably had at the back of their mind Jonathan’s popular saying that his ambition is not worth anybody’s life. His words: “I will never ever expect a Nigerian to spill a drop of his blood because Goodluck Jonathan must fulfil his ambition.” Thankfully, no fatalities were recorded in the attacks in Katsina and Bauchi. The political thugs were damn lucky because attacking the convoy of the President of a country is the equivalent of suing for suicide.

ANTI-BUHARI PROTESTERS IN LONDON DIDN'T KNOW WHY THEY WERE PROTESTING.

Anti-Buhari protesters in London earlier today didn't even know why they were pretesting.This is rather embarrassing considering the fact that the Femi Fani Kayode, the media director of Jonathan's campaign had earlier been accused of organizing people to protest against GMB.

The lady whose picture appear above claimed to have organised students to carry out the protest. However, I find it difficult to understand why the lady exposed herself willingly. Something does not add up.

PRESIDENT JONATHAN MISSED THE POINT ON THE MISSING N3OTRN - CHARLES SOLUDO

My attention has been drawn this morning to an article entitled: “Jonathan Replies Soludo over “missing N30 trillion” claim”— extracting from Mr. President’s interview as published by Thisday newspaper.

ThisDay quoted Mr. President as saying that “Soludo said that under Ngozi’s watch they stole N30 trillion” but that since the sum of the federal budget over the last four years was less than N30 trillion, such an amount could not have been “stolen”.

According to the President, “it is all political”. I had earlier stated that I would not make further comments on the issues until probably after the elections but since Mr. President has decided to join the fray, I am constrained to make a further brief clarification.

EXPOSED - FEMI FANI KAYODE, THE DOUBLE SPEAK MASTER.

I have never been an admirer of Femi Fani-Kayode, as such have never read any of his published articles over the years. However, I stumbled on some of his write ups, yesterday, and was stunned by his political somersault from being a strident critic of President Goodluck Jonathan to being his virulent Spokespeson now.

But I also found out that many Nigerians don't hold him in high esteem, so they are not as shocked as I as. CFFK as he is known is obviously not a man of integrity. For such a character to emerge as the Director of Media and Publicity of President Ebele Jonathan's 2015 campaign organization, also speak volumes of GEJ. It shows with, due respects that Mr. President does not honour integrity. Enjoy this compilation of CFFK's ‘past' views on his new boss.
