Wike’s Weak, Wild, Wicked Week

By Farooq A. Kperogi In Nigeria, elite oppression and callousness are often mostly abstract. Most people at the lower end of the social scale think and feel that many people in positions of power, comfortably ensconced in their sinecures, are haughty, self-impressed, and possessed of ice-cold disdain for them. But it is FCT Minister Nyesom…

[VIDEO] Obiano speaks from U.S., says ‘rumours of my death will only extend my life’ By Obinna Uballa Former Anambra State Governor, Chief Willie Obiano, has personally debunked widespread rumours of his death, declaring in a video message on Friday that he is alive, well, and currently in the United States. In the short clip, which circulated on social media, Obiano – speaking in Igbo, dismissed the reports as false and mischievous. He said the rumour-mongers were only helping to prolong his life. “The truth is that I am in the United States. I am not in London, and I didn’t go to the hospital. We give God the glory. All the lies they are peddling is for them to extend my life. That is how it will be through Christ our Lord,” the former governor declared. His message came hours after his former Commissioner for Information, Mr C. Don Adinuba, also publicly refuted the claims, confirming that he had personally spoken with Obiano. Adinuba, in a statement on Friday, described the reports as baseless, stressing that the former governor is “hale and hearty” and very much alive. “Obiano has never lived in the United Kingdom. He lives in the United States of America. I just spoke with him now,” he said, urging members of the public to disregard the rumour. He warned that such unfounded claims were capable of causing unnecessary panic and distress to Obiano’s family, friends, and supporters across Anambra State and beyond. The former governor’s direct appearance and reassurance have effectively put to rest the speculation that had spread widely on social media earlier in the day.

The Labour Party (LP) presidential campaign train landed in Osogbo, Osun state capital yesterday as it’s flag bearer, Peter Obi, declared before the mammoth crowd that he remains the most qualified among the presidential candidates contesting the forthcoming general elections.

Obi who flaunts his credentials with impeccable arrogance, stated that his remarkable adventure into the business world, proven track record as Governor of Anambra state and stable health status place him at an edge far above other candidates.

Against this back drop, Obi urged Nigerians to endeavour to interrogate the antecedents of the presidential candidates currently jostling to rule Nigeria.
He posited that only by so doing, the right would be carefully and systematically elected without prejudice.

The presidential candidate disclosed that his mission is to rescue Nigeria from imminent collapse and restore her lost glory among the committee of nations.

While canvassing for votes, Obi assured the crowd that his administration would run an all inclusive government as youths and women would form an integral part of his administration.
