PROBLEM LOOMS WITH PDP AND ATIKU


BeFunky collage 2023 02 13T181331.320

Without doubt, for the first time since 1999, the national leadership of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) will not hold its presidential campaign in Rivers State ahead of the February 25 poll.

The Rivers chapter of the PDP Presidential Campaign Council confirmed on Monday that its candidate Atiku Abubakar would no longer hold the scheduled rally in Rivers, which has the highest voter population in the Southsouth and the Southeast.

The chairman of Rivers PDP, Senator Lee Maeba, blamed the development on the crisis between the council and Rivers chapter of the PDP led by Governor Nyesom Wike.
Maeba alleged that the volatile atmosphere created by the Governor’s foot soldiers, who he said had been made to view Atiku as the enemy of the state, led to the cancellation.

He reeled out series of attacks against Atiku’s campaigners in the state insisting that events leading to the proposed campaign had indications it could end up in bloodshed.

He further berated security agencies in the state saying they had not been able to restore confidence in the populace and Atiku campaigners.


“He approved the use of Adokiye Amiesimaka Stadium for the presidential rally but upon the campaign council visit to the stadium to ascertain the status of the facility, he berated their visit and put a rule that they could only visit the stadium 48 hours to the fixed date of the rally. 

“Regrettably and predictably, the Governor canceled the approval. This unstable and unreliable stance of the governor led the campaign council to source an alternative venue and got a private parcel of land at Rainbow Town. The governor has made it impossible to secure a peaceful use of that facility.

“This is also supported by the injunction obtained ex parte from the magistrate court by his attorney-general to seal all campaign offices of Alh. Atiku Abubakar in Rivers State. It is part of the wider plot to maliciously put away members of the campaign council until the presidential election is over.

“In the light of the above submissions, we the state campaign council in total constructive engagement with the national campaign council, the candidate and the party, having seen and evaluated the bodily harm, believe that no loss of life can be tolerated, accepted before during and after the presidential election and agreed with our principals on the need to shelve and cancel the rally to avoid any death because the victory of Alh Abubakar doesn’t deserve spilling of blood of even one citizen of Rivers State. 

“This may be painful but it is the best decision to take as no human death can be excused on the insistence of holding a rally due to the brigandage which the security agency has not been able to wade in and restore confidence security wise on the populace and our members”.

We’ll Ensure That New Naira Notes Circulate Nationwide – Central Bank Appeals To Nigerians

We’ll Ensure That New Naira Notes Circulate Nationwide – Central Bank Appeals To Nigeria The Central Bank of Nigeria, CBN, has said the report claimed to be quoting CBN Governor, Godwin Emefiele as attributing the current challenge in the distribution of the newly redesigned Naira banknotes to a shortage of printing materials is false. In a statement issued on Saturday, CBN spokesman, Osita Nwasinobi, said the CBN governor did not make such statement during his presentation to the National Council of State at its meeting on Friday, February 10, 2023. Mr Nwasinobi said Emefiele only told the meeting that the NSPMC was working on printing all denominations of the Naira to meet the transaction needs of Nigerians. He said while the CBN appreciates the concerns shown by all stakeholders about the distribution of the new Naira notes, “We are alarmed at the extent to which vested interests are attempting to manipulate facts and pitch the public against the Bank.” Nwasinobi said the CBN remain...

We will beat them for sure........... Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.

Manchester United "cannot rely on fate" in their Champions League quarter-final second leg against Barcelona, says manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer. United travel to the Nou Camp needing to overturn a 1-0 first-leg deficit. It will be the first time Solskjaer has played or managed at the ground since scoring the winning goal for United in the 1999 Champions League final. "[There will be] Many emotions, of course it's a fantastic memory for me." Solskjaer said. I've seen my Treble goal a million times - Solskjaer "I don't look back on that night too often. "I don't know how I will feel - I don't think it will be too different. I am focused on a better performance. That is my job now. "Sometimes people have said to me it has to be our year because of 20 years ago and being back at the Nou Camp but to go through, we have to perform and have to deserve it. We can't say we are just going to rely on fate." Solskjaer...

Whale stranding in New Zealand leaves 145 dead

A group of up to 145 pilot whales have died after becoming stranded on a beach on Stewart Island in New Zealand. The animals were discovered by a walker late on Saturday, strewn along the beach of Mason Bay. Authorities said half the whales had already died by then, while the other half were put down as it would have been too difficult to save them. In separate incidents, 12 pygmy whales and a sperm whale also beached in New Zealand over the weekend. ‘A heart-breaking decision’ The pilot whales were beached in two pods about 2km (1.2 miles) apart on a remote beach on Rakiura or Stewart Island off the coast of South Island. “Sadly, the likelihood of being able to successfully re-float the remaining whales was extremely low,” Ren Leppens of the regional Department of Conservation (DOC) said in a statement. “The remote location, lack of nearby personnel and the whales’ deteriorating condition meant the most humane thing to do was to euthanise.” “However, it’s alwa...
