The wife of the governor of Anambra State, Chief (Mrs.) Ebelechukwu Obiano has called on women whose children have cleft lip and cleft palate deformities to come forward and take advantage of the free surgery her pet project, Caring Family Enhancement initiative (CAFÉ), is sponsoring at the Nnamdi Azikiwe University Teaching Hospital (NAUTH), Nnewi.

The governor’s wife made the call when she visited the hospital on Monday to assess progress of the children under-going surgery for cleft palate deformities.

Fani-Kayode, A Political Liability To Jonathan – APC

 

The opposition, All Progressives Congress, has described the spokesman for President Goodluck Jonathan’s campaign organisation, Mr. Femi Fani-Kayode, as a political liability to his employer.
The Lagos State Office of the Buhari/Osinbajo Presidential Campaign Organisation, in a statement on Wednesday, said Fani-Kayode would add no value to Jonathan’s re-election bid, since, according to the organisation, Fani-Kayode no longer had any political consequence.
The organisation was reacting to the criticism of the APC’s last Saturday’s March for Change in Lagos by the Peoples Democratic Party Presidential Campaign Organisation.
Fani-Kayode, the Minister of State for Works, Prince Dayo Adeyeye and the PDP spokesman in Lagos, Taofeek Gani, had derided the APC’s rally.
While Fani-Kayode described the APC’s March for Change as a flop; Adeyeye lashed out at Lagosians for supporting Tinubu, alleging that participants were tipped with N5,000 each. On his own part, Gani doubted the claim that more than a million people participated in the walk.
According to the PDP spokesmen, the APC rally couldn’t have recorded such a huge turnout since the Teslim Balogun Stadium where the walk terminated has capacity to accommodate only 25,000 spectators.

Morocco King Recalls Ambassador From Nigeria

The ship of Nigeria’s President Goodluck Jonathan has developed another embarrassing new leak after Morocco openly denied his claims and denounced his “unethical practices” as unbecoming, and recalled its ambassador.
"HM the King has actually declined the request of the Nigerian government because it is part of the internal electioneering and this country's fundamentally hostile positions with regard to the territorial integrity of the Kingdom," it said in an unusually strong statement.
It rebuffed Jonathan’s posturing after the Nigerian leader appeared to have tried to obtain political mileage with Muslim voters ahead of this month’s presidential election by claiming he had had a phone conversation with King Mohammed VI.
Last Sunday, the Nigerian government released a statement through the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in which it denied reports that the king had snubbed President Jonathan.
"This information is absolutely not correct as the president did in fact speak to the Moroccan monarch,” the statement said, adding that both men spoke extensively on the phone “on matters of mutual interest and concern.”

David Mark Stages Fraudulent Confirmation For Obanikoro As APC Senators Reject Him, Walk Out Of the Senate

There was drama in Nigeria’s upper legislative chamber today as the Senate President, David Mark, carefully orchestrated the confirmation of Musiliu Obanikoro as Nigeria’s minister of state for defence.  The nominee had given up the same position to run in the party primaries for governor of Lagos State
Musiliu Obanikoro Mr. Obanikoro’s confirmation had previously been held up on three occasions as up to 40 Senators rejected his candidacy over his involvement in the rigging of last year’s gubernatorial poll in Ekiti.
A rigging meeting on the eve of the election featured some of the principal characters in the plot, including Obanikoro, and was secretly taped by an army captain and published by SaharaReporters.
Today, a ruthless Mr. Mark, apparently working on a plan to railroad the confirmation process, mobilized People Democratic Party Senators to the chambers of the Senate for Mr. Obanikoro’s confirmation.  Knowing that many of his colleagues, especially members of the All Progressives Congress, wanted to question the nominee, Mark merely asked the assembled Senators to vote on whether they wanted Mr. Obanikoro to “bow and go,” a strategy used as an informal blessing when Senators do not wish to question the president’s nominees.  

Real Reason Former SURE-P Boss Was Fired By President Jonathan

Many People were woken up Wednesday with the socking news of the sack of former Chairman of the Subsidy Reinvestment and Empowerment Programme, Gen. Martin Luther Agwai (rtd.) by President Goodluck Jonathan which is unconnected with the former visit to former President Olusegun Obasanjo's 78th birthday  lecture.

The President has named Mr. Ishaya Dare Akau as Agwai’s replacement.

This was made public in  statement signed by the Special Adviser to the president on Media and Publicity, Dr. Reuben Abati, attributed Agwai’s sack to the continuation of government’s efforts to continuously reposition Federal Government’s agencies for optimal delivery.

 Ashiwaju.org was rightly informed that the sudden sacking of the immediate past  chairman of SURE-P was traceable to visit he made to the former president 78th birthday lecture, which had in attendance personalities not in the progressive record of the president and was then regarded as an act of saboteur and could not be allowed to reign in the president  team.
