Presidency Slams APC Over Claim Of Planned Handover To Military

-
The Presidency has described as mischievous, claims by the Presidential Campaign Organisation of the All Progressives Congress (APC) that the government had concluded plans to hand over to the Military rather than its presidential candidate, Muhammadu Buhari. “Our attention has been drawn to a statement issued by the Spokesperson of the Buhari Campaign Organisation, Mallam Garba Shehu, where he alleged that an official of the office of the Senior Special Assistant to the President posted some comments on the social media suggesting that ‘government will rather hand over power to the military rather than to Gen. Muhammadu Buhari in the event that the APC candidate wins the elections,'” a statement, yesterday, by the Senior Special Assistant to the President on Public Affairs, Doyin Okupe, the Presidency said. “We categorically deny that this statement was ever made by anyone in this office. The APC claim is absolutely false, mischievous and malicious. “The Senior Special Assistant to the President on Public Affairs personally handles his Twitter, @doyinokupe and other social media platforms and continues to use such as a legitimate medium of advancing the cause of democratic good governance and institutional integrity which President Goodluck Jonathan represents. “Dr. Okupe has never and will never associate himself with thoughts or actions which run contrary to the tenets of democracy, rule of law and the right of Nigerians to freely elect those who govern them. “We urge the APC to concentrate on clearing the name of its presidential candidate from the mess of not having prerequisite academic certificate and incapacity to govern Nigeria rather than seek a cheap diversion from a phantom post by some persons on the social media,” the statement read. http://www.vanguardngr.com/2015/01/hand-military-apcs-claims-malicious-mischievous-okupe/

WHEN DID GTBANK BECOME THIS USELESS?

I do not know when GTB suddenly become this kind of a useless bank, but what one of My friend is currently experiencing is very frustrating and a betrayal of customers trust. This is what happened. A friend of mine (Ib) operate a GTB savings account in Ilorin, Kwara state, but due to his kind of job, he suddenly find himself in Delta state, a remote town that only one bank operates there (ECOBANK). Whenever he needs to lodge money into his account, there is no way to do that, but finally, he had an agreement with the ECOBANK in the town. One of the ECOBANK staff would receive the amount to be lodged in cash, then transfer the amount to his GTB account. This has been the way since he gets to that town. And if they need to withdraw cash for any reason, of course, the ATM is there. But for the past 3 weeks, my friend IB has been unable to withdraw money from his GTB account. He noticed it first when he went to Asaba and tried to withdraw with his ATM and it declined. So, he went to the...

15 areas Nigeria is better than America

United States of America may be better than Nigeria in many ways, but there are also areas Nigeria is better than U.S. I have compiled just 15 of them for a start. Read and leave your comment. 1. Intelligence and smartness Nigerians are the most intelligent people in the world. Yes, they are the smartest you find anywhere in the world. However, the problem with intelligent and smart people is that, in anything they do, their intelligence and smartness come to play and others in the same circle hardly match their rare skills. In business, they will be intelligent and smart, in education, they will be intelligent and smart, in music and entertainment, they will be intelligent and smart and also in criminality, they will be intelligent and smart. As we all know, negative stories sells faster than anything else and this explains why Nigerian criminals are also world famous for their craft. Nigerian criminals, particularly the internet scammers are not in any way more dangerous than...

Buhari Executed My Father But I Will Still Vote For Him" - Lawal Ojuolape's Son

-
1985, Three young men , Lawal Ojuolape (30), Bernard Ogedengbe (29) and Bartholomew Owoh (26) were taken to bar-beach. Those days that was the place where condemned criminals faced the firing squad. What was the offence of these three young men you might ask?.They had been found guilty of drug trafficking. Death penalty for drug traffickers was a decree that the Buhari/Idiagbon military junta introduced after they had seized power from Shagari. There was public outcry,people pleaded for their lives to be spared. International organisations jointly called for the halt in their execution but to no avail. Buhari insisted that discipline must be instilled! death was the way? That faithful morning they were led with their hands and legs bound. Eye witnesses say when they were tied to the spot in which they were to be shot,the three of them started singing. They sang a religious song that made the excited onlookers cry. As the bullets ripped through their body,hitting vital organs and thei...
