ENTER HON. JONSON UGHUMA, GANI AUDU AND ABASS BRAIMAH AS IZE IYAMU'S DEPUTY


    MPH | Forum
  1. With Obaseki/Shaibu seemingly out of the way in APC matters, the road is now clear for the emergence of new power blocks in he mould of the making of Oshiomole. Pastor Ize Iyamu is certain to clinch the ticket and go on to win the general elections. You may dispute this, but that is the way of our country. Only the unwise will contest this. Obviously, knowing the way Oshiomole's mind works, the road is now clear for the emergence of either of the trio: Gani Audu, Johnson Ughuma or Abass Braimah to become thye next deputy governor of Edo State. So all roads will soon be leading to their homes for the normal lobbying and pledge of loyalty. Here, in this our clime, we care more for our flesh than provision of general amenities; that is why it is easy for godfathers to ride rough shod over and above others; that is why it is easy for the benin-Auchi road to remain in perpetual state of desrepair; thats is why the Iruekpen-Ekpoma road has remained what it is: a torn in the flesh of motorists. I do not doubt the powers of these godfathers; I only have nostagia reminiscent of the days of my fathers when leadership were accountable. I remebred my father bought a peoguot 504 GL and hid it, using it only sparingly. When I asked why, he said it was to avoid suspicion and subsequent petitioning as to where he got the money to buy the car unlike today when you could own private jets and nobody bats an eyelid. Thats how far we have degenerated. Little did I know that thoses were the very best days we were witnessing--no kidnappers, bandits, herdsmen, terrosists, etc. I cant really understand it; it is so difficult to see that men of my own generation are the very harbingers of misfortune in current times. So sad.

WORSHIPPERS THRONG TO KUJE FOR BISHOP DAVID EDOBOR (ANGEL 1)

Kuje, a suburb in the capital city of Abuja is witnessing an unusual traffic: hundreds of worshippers are seen trooping to stadium road in Kuje where Bishop David Edobor, General Overseer of the Joshua Generation Church is blazing the trail, performing spiritual feats, healing, delivering and restoring damaged destinies. The young General Overseer popularly known as “mathematical prophetic” “accuracy bazooka” has declared repeatedly: ‘you can doubt my prophesies, but you cannot doubt the outcome!” Preaching last Sunday, 16 th September, the cleric disclosed that the examination of life has no timetable unlike that of common exams. He said that is the reason why worshippers must not toy with their destiny background-and where they come from. Bishop Edobor has restored many destinies and not a few people have had breakthroughs in marriage, travel overseas, employment, healing, etc. The Edo State born man of God has been variously described as “small oyedepo” from the way he prea...

STOP THE ILLEGAL DETENTIONS IN ICPC NOW BUHARI TOLD

The Independent Corrupt Practice and Other Related Matters Offences Commission (ICPC) were set as an anti-corruption agency to rein in persons involved in suspected shady deals and sharp practices. But in recent times as investigations have revealed The commission appears to have derailed as it is fast losing that tag as an anti-corruption agency.  Preliminary investigations have unearthed some sharp practices of illegal detentions on spurious charges, unauthorized raid and sealing of victims houses and unwarranted blockages of victim’s accounts. “This bad practice must be discontinued” declared Mr Rafiu Ibrahim, Secretary-General of Association for Good Governance and Transparency (AFGT). Throwing more light on the sad development, the Secretary-General wondered why the ICPC would detain without charges any suspected Nigerian for upwards of two weeks without proceeding to court, while systematically extorting various sums of money from the detained Nigerian.  The Secretary-Ge...
