South-South Front (SSF) hail Oyegun at 78

Prominent South-South leaders on Friday eulogized the National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Chief John Odigie-Oyegun for his total dedication to the service of the nation.

“Nigerians have reasons to be grateful to Oyegun for his contribution to the development of democracy.” the leaders, under the aegis of the South-South Front (SSF), said.

In a statement signed by SSF Chairman, Chief John Harry, the leaders commended Oyegun for devoting almost his entire adult life to the service of the Nigerian State, engaging party faithful in exciting ways and thinking outside the box.

They described the APC national chairman as a selfless leader, ardent nationalist, a profound humanist, an astute politician and a paragon of virtues.

“Chief Odigie-Oyegun, a clean and competent administrator, erudite politician and a true democrat, is dedicated and fearless. He is also a fighter for good governance and transparency” the leaders said.

Recalling his days as executive governor of Edo State on the platform of the Social Democratic Party (SDP), the leaders noted the improvement in the various sectors, provision of potable water, potent health care delivery and good roads as well as secured living in the state.

They praised Oyegun for his free education at all levels and health services for children and maternal cases, the completion of Oba Market, the Cultural Centre and State Water Board Headquarters.

They also commended him for the huge employment, provision of a modern and subsidized urban mass transit system, relocation of NABTEB to Edo State and successful lobbying of the Federal Government to take over the polytechnic in Auchi.

“Oyegun’s politics hinges on the pillar of development, concern for the nation and its people. The former governor of Edo State met the yearnings and aspirations of the people during his short stint in power.”

The leaders described as irresponsible the campaign of calumny by Anambra State governor, Dr. Willie Obiano.

They condemned him for throwing the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) into confusion.

 “Dr. Willie Obiano is arrogant, reckless, evil and intoxicated with destruction. He is not on the best of terms with Peter Obi and others who took him from his banking job to Government House.”

The leaders also rebuffed the arrogance and disrespect of Timi Frank, saying but for Oyegun’s extraordinary commitment to reconciliation and tolerance, crises would have taken over the ruling party.

They advised the national chairman to disregard the governor’s antics and concentrate on the job of delivering Anambra State to APC.

The leaders while wishing Oyegun good health and happiness thanked him for providing purposeful leadership in Nigeria, particularly Edo State.

“It is a great honour for us to offer our sincere greetings and best wishes on the occasion of your 78th birthday” the leaders added.

South-South Youths to Wike: PDP is a discredited platform

South-South Youths to Wike: PDP is a discredited platform 

…..Warn Timi Frank, others

South –South Youths on Thursday praised the All Progressives Congress (APC) for bringing about the needed change in Nigeria.

The youths heaped praises on the leaders of the party for getting Nigeria out of the predicament of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).

In a statement by the South-South Youth Leaders Forum, the youths condemned the reported stand of Governor Nyesom Wike concerning the performance of the APC in the country.

“Governor Nyesom Wike in his heart of hearts knows the truth and should be man enough to accept the fact that PDP disappointed Nigerians.”

The leader of the group, Dr. Uche Amadi among other youths praised the APC for liberating the political space from the suffocating control of the PDP and injecting the needed political and economic re-engineering into governance in the country.

They also commended President Muhammadu Buhari and Acting President, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo for tackling the country’s numerous challenges and building a virile nation for generation yet unborn.

“APC is not like PDP. PDP is a discredited platform, a cult house of discord and enmity. APC has a vision and mission.  The party will win the 2019 presidential election.”

The youths applauded the APC dominated National Assembly for looking into some areas in the 1999 Constitution and addressing the problems confronting Nigeria.

Particularly, the youths eulogized the National Chairman of the party, Chief John Odigie-Oyegun for bringing his wealth of experience to bear on the party’s administration.

“In party politics, members of the party want to be given the chance to make their contributions. Chief John Odigie-Oyegun is a man of wisdom, dedication and integrity. He is handling the affairs of the party in a pleasant manner.”

The youths who noted with dismay the unhealthy comments by Timi Frank described Oyegun as symbol of peace, a good manager of men and resources as well as a strong believer in the National Cause.

They called on APC members all over the country to continue to have confidence in the ability and capacity of the chairman to move the party to the next level.

“Timi Frank has lost relevance. The only value that he has, is that of being a nuisance to the good people of Bayelsa State.”

“Oyegun, a versatile and time tested technocrat, administrator and a stickler for transparency, is carrying everyone along” the youths added.

Timi, others plotting to derail APC, Northern leaders allege

Commends Oyegun’s efforts      

Prominent leaders in the North on Sunday eulogized the National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Chief John Odigie-Oyegun for his role in the reform agenda of the party, especially the issue of open and fair competition, execution of the party’s policies and the transformation of Nigeria from a beggarly status to one of self-sufficiency and respectability.

The leaders frowned at the behavior of the suspended Deputy National Publicity Secretary of APC, Mr. Timi Frank and his sponsors in tarnishing the good image of Oyegun.

The northern leaders are angry with Frank who they accused of not only pushing the party into a difficult position but plotting to rock the boat.

At an enlarged meeting in Yola, Adamawa State, the leaders said Frank’s call for Oyegun’s resignation was pointless.

“Timi Frank did not do justice to the avalanche of facts available on the achievements of Oyegun since he assumed office as national chairman of APC.”

The leaders who are pushing for sanctions against Timi Frank and his co-conspirators painted a bright picture of Nigeria and APC, arguing that APC is cleaning the mess made by PDP and providing an atmosphere for sustainable development in the economic and social fields.

“APC is not in government for the fun of it. APC is in government to save the Nigerian people who have become deprived of good things of life for long. APC is in government to stop recklessness, wasteful spree and the insensitivities of PDP. The APC government is accountable, prudent and people oriented.”

The northern leaders who met under the auspices of the APC United Front, described Oyegun as a pragmatic politician.

Leader of APC United Front, Alhaji Ibrahim Musa, in a statement said the northern leaders branded Timi Frank and his sponsors as traitors and tongue-lashed them for anti-party activities.

“To Frank, what counts most is the selfish interest of his sponsors. However, the consequence of swimming against the tidal waves is and will always be a disastrous one.”

They advised the national leadership of the party to wield a big hammer by taking stronger measures against Frank and his sponsors.

“One of the good qualities of a statesman is the ability to subordinate self interest to wider national interest. Frank and his sponsors are today engaged in a political war against APC. It is an extremely unjust war, waged for no other purpose than to destroy APC.”

“APC is the party of the people, the hope of the people” the leaders added.

APC unveils Gov. Wike’s fresh plots to tarnish the image of Amaechi

APC unveils Gov. Wike’s fresh plots to tarnish the image of Amaechi 

The Rivers State Chapter of All Progressives Congress, APC, has uncovered an ongoing plot by Gov. Nyesom Wike to tarnish the image of his predecessor and Minister of Transportation, Rt. Hon. Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi through manifest falsehood soon to be placed in the media.

According to a press statement made available to journalists by Rivers State APC Publicity Secretary, Mr. Chris Finebone noted that “the plot involves extensive forgeries and fabrications of various seemingly sensitive documents to further buttress the lie that the Osborne Road, Ikoyi money confiscated by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, belonged to the Minister who obtained same from the coffers of Rivers State Government while he was governor of the State.”

The statement reads: “Initially when Gov. Wike claimed that the Osborne Road money belonged to Rivers State, the EFCC presented an ample opportunity for the governor to step forward and provide evidence and possibly pick up the money but Gov. Wike chickened out until the period granted by the court elapsed. Wike did not take advantage of that window because he had no iota of evidence and he knew it. The present devilish efforts by Gov. Wike to pour tar on Amaechi will go the futile way of the governor’s previous efforts.

“The APC is saddened that more than two years after being sworn in as the governor of Rivers State, Nyesom Wike is still hell-bent on destroying the image of his former boss, benefactor and predecessor. We wish to remind him that his evil plans for the man who gave him a lift in life will continue to fail to his grief.

“We note that instead of aimlessly deceiving himself in his cocoon of self-delusion that he can bring down Amaechi, the APC would like the governor to settle the scores he has with his own dishonorable reputation of lies and deceit.

“We recall that Gov. Wike stood before God and men in a church in Etche to lie when he claimed that the Federal Government was undermining his government by slashing the State’s monthly allocations. He refused to tell the truth that he had earlier pledged a good chunk of the State’s future monthly allocations as collateral security to commercial banks for the huge loans he took at double digit interest rate.

“Like in the case of the federal allocations, the governor recently told another group of Clergymen during a church programme that the Federal Government paid the State only N17 billion as refund on Paris Club Loan and not N34 billion as claimed by the Federal Government. However, evidence made available to the APC by officials of Federal Ministry of Finance indicates that Gov. Nyesom Wike actually signed and collected N34 billion as Paris Club Loan refund for Rivers State.

“The APC is convinced that fearing that his lies are about to be made public, Gov. Wike has decided to raise spurious allegations against the Minister of Transportation being his usual style of diverting attention and shifting the focus of public scrutiny from himself. Wike knows very well that most Nigerians are poorly informed and therefore very gullible. If indeed he had any credible evidence that the Osborne Road money belonged to Amaechi or Rivers State Government, we believe that he would have joyfully approached the EFCC and the court to claim the said money. We believe that the present attempts to raise spurious claims, through concocted documents, is mere smokescreen to cover up the obvious lack of transparent governance by Gov. Wike.

“Finally, the APC calls on Rivers people in particular and Nigerians in general to disregard all forms of fabricated stories that Gov. Nyesom Wike is about floating in the public space through print, electronic and internet media. We will continue to deconstruct, demobilise and discredit the grand deceit that Gov. Nyesom Wike and his mafia government represent.”
