BODE GEORGE FOR PDP CHAIR?


Bode George angling for PDP Chair
The word is out that Chief Bode George former Governor of Ondo State and deputy national chairman of the People’s Democratic Party of Nigeria (PDP) has thrown his hat in the ring to contest the vacant seat of the national chairman of PDP. Bode George in pursuance of this determination has since picked his Expression of Interest form at the Wadata Head office of the Party.
But a source within the PDP hierarchy has described the move as “selfish”, citing Bode George antecedents. “What is Bode George coming to contribute to the nation?”, our source who prefers to remain anonymous queried? The source said he was of the opinion that Bode George should just throw in the towel or hang his boots since he has nothing more to offer to Nigerians—except corruption, nepotism, tribalism and hatred! “Are there no youths in the PDP?” asked one Emeka Ezuego. He went on to attribute PDP’s failures in the past to this “strong” addiction to “old brigade” syndrome.

2015 GENERAL ELECTIONS SHOCKING REVELATIONS ABOUT FUNDS DISBURSEMENT

How the administration of former President Goodluck Jonathan frittered away the nation’s scarce resources is beginning to spill out – despite the shrill insistence by ex-Finance Minister, Okonjo Iweala that the records sheet were clean! Information pieced together by our investigators show that several paramilitary Agencies under the Federal Ministry of Interior shared a record 10 billion each for the purpose of influencing the March 28 General Elections in favour of the defeated incumbent.   However, things did not go down well with the ranks and file during the sharing. Outgoing Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Boss (name withheld) was said to have misappropriated the huge booty by allegedly pocketing 5 billion for himself, while declaring the other half (5 billion) as the sum total.   The bone of contention was that while the rank and file received 40,000 each some key associates close to the big guns went home with a hefty slice.   Causing the rumble.

OPEN LETTER TO HON. BABATUNDE FASHOLA

Permit me to go straight to the point.  All protocols observed Sir.  I note your massive achievement in your days as Governor of Lagos State.  And it is widely believed that your appointment as Minister of Works, Housing and Power would witness same admirable face-lift. As down to earth investigating Journalist, we travel a lot and wish to bring to your notice certain critical roads that need your urgent attention. One of them is the Lokoja-Okene highway.  Honorable Minister, the continued state of this road is a serious indictment and slap on the face of whoever is the Director of Federal Highways in your Ministry.  This major artery, as important as it is, has caused several unnecessary loss of lives.  There is simply no excuse for this road to remain in this dangerous state two years into the tenure of this administration.  What then differentiates the APC Government from the PDP, if not prompt attention to vital national assets? Seco...
