Ben Murray-Bruce Appeals To Atiku Abubakar To Return To The PDP
I congratulate @Atiku for leaving the APC. It took courage especially as he has wide business investments that are already targets and could be further targeted. I, Senator Ben Murray-Bruce, now appeal to Waziri Adamawa, to return to the house he helped build, the PDP.— Ben Murray-Bruce (@benmurraybruce) November 24, 2017

A Warning To Buhari -FFK
The conviction of Serbian Gen. Ratko Mladic for ethnic clansing,war crimes and mass murder by the ICC is encouraging.— Femi Fani-Kayode (@realFFK) November 22, 2017

Gov Amosun:Non Indigenes Won't Succeed Me
Non-indigenes won’t succeed me, says Amosun
The Ogun State Governor, Ibikunle Amosun, has said that he will not allow a non-indigene to succeed him in 2019.
He said this on Wednesday while addressing elders from Ogun West Senatorial District during a meeting with him at his Oke-Mosan office in Abeokuta.
The elders said they had come to dissociate themselves from a reported endorsement of Senator Solomon Adeola as the consensus candidate by the Ogun West Consultative Forum.
The governor, who spoke in Yoruba, reaffirmed his earlier stand to support a candidate from the senatorial district.
He, however, insisted that only a ‘son of the soil’ and not a stranger or a non-indigene would take over from him.
The governor appealed to the elders not to see the other two senatorial districts, Ogun East and Ogun Central, as enemies, adding that they needed to court and lobby them, in order to realise Ogun West candidacy dream for 2019 under the platform of the All Progressives Congress in the state.
He said, “It’s a covenant between me and my God, I will be handing over to someone from Ogun West but other senatorial districts are also qualify to contest.
“But we should not see them as enemies. It should not appear that we are taking anyone for granted, our people in Ogun East Senatorial District can come out to contest.
“In Ogun Central, we have agreed, but if anybody comes out from the central, I will confront him frontally.
“We will be tactical and strategic but we should not pay attention to those that are not necessary. I am free to take my position just like every other person.
“I am not God, we are human but where we are today, I am supporting people from Ogun West, it will be an insult to us in this state when we have sons and daughters, not ‘atohunrinwa’ (stranger or non-indigene) will come, they will ruin Ogun State, if we allow it.”Source - punch

The choice of the stadium which has the capacity of over 25,000 people as the venue for a rapper's concert is undoubtedly another first as concerts go in Lagos. With the unbelievable success of the three previous editions, *Olamide Live in Concert I: The Beast Unleased *ranked the biggest concert of 2014, *Olamide live in concert II: Beast Move *a sold-out show at Eko Convention Centre and *Olamide live in Concert III Beast Mode, *which was arguably the most successful concert of 2016 with the Governor of Lagos State, Mr *Akinwunmi Ambode* and his wife, *Oba Saheed Elegushi*, Senator *Dino Melaye* and many other dignitaries in attendance. *Olamide Live in Lagos: The concert *will definitely bring Lagos to a halt with the release of his new album titled ‘Lagos Na Wa’. It is clear that 2017, just like every other year in recent memory, is the year of Olamide as he gives back to his fans. *Olamide Live in Lagos: The Concert *is on a track to set standards, break existing records, and give fans what they truly crave for and deserve. *ABOUT OLAMIDE* Olamide is a Nigerian hip hop recording artist signed to his record label YBNL. Born Olamide Adedeji in Bariga Lagos State, he records mostly in Yoruba. Olamide’s love for rap music began in his primary school days as he began to nurture it. In 2000, he decided to pursue a career in music. After a few years bubbling underground and working to get his music heard, Olamide worked with ID Cabasa's Coded Tunes record to release his debut single ‘Eni Duro’. In 2010, he performed at The Hip Hop World Awards and released his debut studio album in 2011 titled ‘Rapsodi’. The following year, he started his own record label ‘YBNL Nation’ and released his second album ‘YBNL’ in November 2012 under his label imprint YBNL Nation.

In 2013, he signed a deal with Guinness Nigeria and became an ambassador for Etisalat the following month; a deal he extended in 2015. He released a collaborative album with hip hop artist and producer, Phyno titled “2 Kings” in early 2015, and he followed up with a solo album in the same year. He released a solo album titled ‘Eyan Mayweather’ was released late November 2015. The album was preceded by four hit singles; "Bobo", "Matters Arising", "Lagos Boys" and "Melo Melo". Olamide announced an endorsement deal with betting company SureBet 247 in 2014. His 6th studio album ‘THE GLORY’ was released in 2016. It was the No 1 selling album on Billboard’s world album chart and it made him the first and only Nigerian rapper in history to have released 6 studio albums and one collaborative album in six (6) years. Olamide has sold-out international concerts in London, Liverpool, Birmingham, Canada, Manchester, Dublin, Cyprus, Malaysia, Dubai, SouthAfrica , as well as a Five city USA tour in 2016. Olamide is the first and only Nigerian rapper to have an independent sold out concert at the Eko Hotel Convention Centre Lagos; one of the biggest event venues in Nigeria. This he achieved in 2014, 2015 and 2016 respectively with his concerts; OLIC1, OLIC2 and OLIC3 (OLAMIDE LIVE IN CONCERT).

Why Atiku Abubakar? By Enny Idris
The Public Relations Officer of the immigration service,Sunday James, said in a statement on Wednesday in Abuja, that the revocation was in the exercise of the powers vested on the CG in Section 39 sub-section 1 of Immigration Act 2015 and Section5, sub-section 5 of the Immigration Regulation, 2017.
If you recall,FG some time ago terminated Intels contract with the Nigerian Port Authority over allegations that the firm did not comply with the government’s directive on the Treasury Single Account.
Could this be a straight bullet on Atiku Abubakar's 2019 presidential ambition?

ex EFCC BOSS,Farida Waziri Was Hired To Attack Me-Pres.Jonathan
Ex President, Dr Goodluck Jonathan, said, yesterday, that former chairman of Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, Mrs. Farida Waziri, lied when she alleged being sacked by him because she refused to back down from the probe of one of the masterminds of fuel subsidy scam.
Waziri had told newsmen in an interview in Lagos, last weekend, that the former President ordered her sack for refusing to stop the investigation of one of those involved in subsidy scam.
She also said her removal then “has now helped her not to be associated with the alleged grand corruption that took place under Jonathan’s administration.
I’m only glad that those things didn’t happen under my watch as the EFCC chairman because it would have been too traumatic for me. “That is why, if I see President Jonathan today, I will kneel down to thank him for the honor, by removing me as the EFCC chairman at the time he did.
Jonathan in his Twitter handle @GEJonathan, yesterday, challenged the former EFCC boss, saying she was lying. He said: “If Farida is not telling lies, she should mention the person or company she was investigating and she was stopped. “Let the EFCC investigate; crime has no statute bar. If she can’t, then she was simply hired to attack me.”

CBA FOUNDATION ORGANISES A CHARITY WALK TAGGED WALK4HOPE
Update:Ambode has ordered demolition of my house – APC legal adviser, Muiz Banire
Banire raised the alarm in a statement today, accusing Governor Akinwumi Ambode of vendetta.
APC's Legal Adviser, said he got the news in Saudi Arabia, where he is on lesser hajj, explained that the building, located at 24A, Remi Fani Kayode Street, GRA, Ikeja, Lagos, was leased to him by the Federal Government and that he never carried out any structural work on it.
He said having failed to unseat him as the National Legal Adviser of the APC, Ambode now targets his properties.
The statement, titled: ‘Lagos State Government and Politics of Vendetta’ reads in full:
“Distinguished gentlemen of the Press, it has become imperative for me to urgently issue this press statement to notify all men and women of good conscience on the activities of the current government in Lagos State that is hell-bent on persecuting my family for no reason besides that I insisted on the need to observe the rule of law.
“Notice came to me on wednesday, the 14th day of November, 2017 at about 6 pm while on lesser hajj in Saudi Arabia about a notice of contravention purportedly served on the residence of my 90-year old mother, Alhaja Sarat Banire, at her 24A, Remi Fani Kayode Street, GRA, Ikeja, Lagos by the agents of Lagos State Government from the Ministry of Physical Planning and Urban Development demanding within 24 hours, proof of planning permit obtained before the building was constructed. The contravention notice further threatened demolition of my mother’s two-bedroom bungalow within 48 hours of the notice.
“It behooves me to put the record straight. My siblings and I acquired a lease of the property known as 24A, Remi Fani-Kayode Street, GRA, Ikeja, Lagos from the Federal Government to serve as residence for my aged mother. The lease covered the 2-bedroom bungalow already on the land together with a boys’ quarter. I did not have any reason to rebuild the house or do any further construction as the place was fit for the purpose for which it was acquired on lease.
“I know that since the creation of the lease, my mother has been living in the said 2-bedroom bungalow without adding a block to the property by way of additional construction, development or alteration save minor renovation like painting. The reasons why we could not develop the property to make it more befitting is that we are still awaiting federal consent to the lease created in my mother’s favour.
“Surprisingly on the 14th day of November, the contravention notice purportedly served by government requires that a building permit must be produced for an old building the existence of which predated the lease by which my mother became the occupier of the premises. The property belongs to the Federal Government of Nigeria who granted a lease to my mother and save for minor renovations to make it habitable, no single efforts at construction or reconstruction has been made by any of us. How on earth could it be heard that a tenant is required to produce a building permit of a property that belongs to her landlord within 24 hours otherwise she risked demolition of the building?
“I had earlier said that the Lagos State government, under the governorship of Akinwunmi Ambode is out on a vendetta and having failed to get me removed as the National Legal Adviser of All Progressives Congress, has targeted my supporters for persecution. The more recent is the invasion and sealing up of the residence of Honourable Funmilayo Tejuoso without a court order and in flagrant disregard to pending proceedings of the Lagos State High Court in a suit instituted by Honourable Tejuoso’s company and the Lagos State Government.
“I had been expecting that, since I was the ultimate target having received several messages threatening my family members and me, very soon my properties shall become objects of demolition by the vindictive government that is out to wage war against real and perceived enemies. I am, therefore, not surprised to see that my aged mother’s residence is under attack.
“However, certain points become quite pertinent:
“1. it has never been heard that a tenant of a property shall be required to produce the building permit by which the property leased to him was constructed;
“2. what urgency requires that the occupier of a premises be given just 24 hours to produce a building permit of which he/she could not have been in possession?;
“3. what urgency requires that the building be demolished within 48 hours of issuing a contravention notice if not vendetta?
“4. It is clear that Minister’s Consent to the lease in accordance with the law is still under processing with the Office of the Minister for Power, Works and Housing in Abuja and same has not come out which prevents the building from being developed;
“5. The building is not dilapidated and neither does it constitute danger to any life or property. What exactly brought this building within the context of demolition if not that it is linked to Muiz Banire?
“I want to sound this note of caution to the Lagos State Government that I am not daunted by all these acts of terrorism which it has embarked upon in recent times. My call for internal democracy in All Progressives Congress, prevalence of rule of law and resistance to imposition came out of personal conviction to serve my creator in all ramifications and at every opportunity.
“All necessary reactions to the notice have been escalated to both the Lagos State Government and the Federal Government as I have caused my lawyers to respond to the notice appropriately. I have no doubt that this latest Gestapo tactic is in furtherance of the political victimization and oppression raging against me and my associates. I am ready for the sacrifice even if I have to in the process sleep on the street of Lagos.
“Rule of law and institution building remain sacrosanct to me. As far as God continues to protect my life, I will remain resolute on it. As the political repression continues, I urge all my followers and supporters to be calm. If God says that my ailing mother at the age of 90 will die in the hands of Governor Ambode, I give God the glory. This is just my immediate reaction pending my arrival when I shall address the press comprehensively.”

Court Judgement Favours Ali Ndume Over Saraki N Melaye
Justice Babatunde Quadri in his judgment on Friday, set aside the suspension and ordered that Mr. Ndume be allowed to resume his duties in the senate as a senator.
“The suspension of the plaintiff (Ndume) is hereby declared illegal, unlawful and unconstitutional. The purported suspension contained in the letter of March 30 is hereby set aside.
“The first and second defendants (the senate president and the senate) are hereby directed to pay the plaintiff his outstanding salaries and allowances forthwith.”
The judge, however, refused to grant the N500 million damages Mr. Ndume asked the court to award him.
“Relief on the issue of damages is hereby refused, because I hope this will facilitate reconciliation in the senate between the plaintiff and other members of the senate and bring peace to our nascent democracy.”
The Senate had on March 30, suspended Mr. Ndume, who was former Majority Leader for 90 legislative days (six months).
Mr. Ndume was suspended for raising a matter that the Senate investigate public allegations of impropriety against the Senate President, Bukola Saraki, and another senator, Dino Melaye.
The Senate Committee on Ethics, Privileges and Public Petitions, which investigated the matter recommended that Mr. Ndume be suspended for one year.
The report, which was presented by the committee’s chairman, Samuel Anyanwu, was considered by the lawmakers at plenary.
Mr. Ndume was subsequently suspended for six months for “bringing Melaye, his colleague, and the institution of the senate to unbearable disrepute.”
Mr. Ndume, not satisfied by the reason given for his suspension, headed to court to challenge the action of the senate.

A letter to OAP Freeze By Enny Idris
I don't like to delve into religious affairs, but my spirit keeps telling me to write about it to clearify things.
What is Tithe?
According to the dictionary,TITHE is the one tenth of annual produce or earnings,formerly taken as a tax for the support of the church and clergy.
According to the Holy Bible,which i believe in and have so much regard for, Malachi 3,verse 8-11,has a heading which says DO NOT ROB GOD.
Verse 8 says "Will a man rob me? Yet you have robbed me! But you say,in what way,have we robbed you? In tithes and offerings.
Verse 9 says You are cursed with a curse,for you have robbed me,Even this whole nation.
Verse 10 says Bring all the tithes into the storehouse,That there maybe food in my house,and try me now in this ,says the lord of hosts"if i will not open for you the windows of heaven and pour out for you such blessing
That there maybe enough room to receive it.
Verse 11 says And i will rebuke the devourer for your sakes,so that he will not destroy the fruits of your ground nor shall the vine fail to bear fruits for you in the field.
For you,OAP freeze,i am of the opinion that you dont even have a match stick information about tithing.
I think you need a camping,some form of divine revelation about the secrets of GOD
My bible has it in Luke Chapter 19, Verse 41 and 42 that Jesus Christ saw the city and wept over it saying if you had known,even you,especially in your day,the things that make for your peace! But now they are hidden from your eyes.
You see spiritual things are tangible! Jesus wept over the ignorance of men!!! Thats why the Bible says my people perish for lack of knowledge, You see God cannot help you beyond what you know about him.
This plaque called Ignorance is what the devil is using to fight people even some believers.Yes i say so!!!
You need deep enough knowledge about tithing before delving into it. Let me put it this way. Imagine a security man advising you about your health,what drugs and foods you ought to take to treat ulcer? Does he have enough information on this subject matter? NO he doesnt! You need to see a qualified and experienced medical doctor,else you find yourself in the mortuary!
Consider KPMG hiring a professional caterer to audit her clients books? Havent they taking valium 5? Havent they lost that client? Ofcourse YES.
Consider yourself hiring a shoe shinner on the street to develop an application for your business? Havent you failed? SURE BANKER!!
You see,you have to give what belongs to ceaser to ceaser,you need enough information on any subject matter to have a hold on it.
Lets relate this to legal matters. Do you know there are LAWYERS and there are lawyers? What distinguishes them? The level of information they have on the subject matter of 'law'
I tell you this,there are different kinds of light.There is a light from a match stick. There is another one from a candle stick. There is another one from a lantern. My question now is this, of what effect is a match stick light or a candle light or a lantern in a multipurpose hall in the night? Almost no effect! You need a flood light in this kind of multi purpose hall.Relating this to tithing, OAP freeze, you need flood information on tithing before you delve into religious matters.
Go get flood information !
Thank you.

LETTER TO TOWN CRIER BLACKFACE -RUGGED MAN
My dear @blackfacenaija I greet you. I saw your little interview on @pulsenigeria247 and decided to take a little time off to answer your call. I have been doing my best in setting good examples for young cats and I feel great seeing them doing good. It's sad I have to write this,but they will understand. I am and will always be a fan of your one and only album "Ghetto Child" that had some conscious tracks in it. By the way, i am sure you are not blind and can see that Nigeria is still not as great as we want. So why aren't you singing everyday about it like you said you expected me to keep doing about artists copying?Every time I read about you on social media you are complaining and ranting. If your people around you wont tell you the truth i will. You are begining to look like a sad, jelouse,washed up artist who can't keep up with his fellow artists. Like you can't make music anymore. An example is the fact you claim you wrote certain songs @official2baba allegedly stole. A grown man would hit the studio and record more of such songs like 2baba, myself, @soundsultan , the great @daddyshowkey , @realafricanchina and @oritsefemi have been doing and prove to the world you wrote them. But you turn town crier at any opportunity you get in front of a camera. I dont want to believe that complaining on interviews and calling artists names is your only hold on relivance. You should be smart enough to see that the media are manipulating you for content and turning you into a laughing stock. My brother you are too talented and too old for all this. You are now a veteran upcoming artist bro. Putting my name in your interview was a wrong move. So my sincere advice to you is face the fact that @official2baba is not your dad and owes you nothing. Let the man drink water and drop cup.If you had proof of your claims you would have gone to court all these years. The fact that you are old in the game doesn't make you an analyst. Not every old man is wise and the even the wise ones know when and how to talk. My brother if you hit the studios as much as you rant, I know one good song would have come out. This is the last time I will talk to you on these matters.God bless

I Dont Have Marriage Luck-Fathia Balogun
In a chat with Broadway TV, the actress said she has had her own fair share of down times but “The biggest down for me was when my marriage crashed”.
She said: “Everything in life is about luck. When I was growing up the first thing that came to my mind was to have a very glamours. A white wedding with my wedding train, my nine-to-five husband and my two kids.
“You have plans for the future. But if you go into one and it doesn’t work out. You go into the second and it doesn’t work out, that means marriage luck isn’t by your side. I think I’m one of those people who marriage luck isn’t by their side.”
The actress’s recent separation would be her second unsuccessful attempt at marriage but she doesnt blame either of her two estranged spouses for the union not working out.
She said: “I don’t fault anybody because I had my own faults and they had their own faults. For my own faults, I adjusted my self, my lifestyle and everything around me. I’d say maybe some other time I’ll be lucky.”
Although separated from Balogun, while keeping his last name, Williams said it isn’t official yet. “We are not officially divorced because the case is still in court,” she said.
However, she said they still keep in touch with each other fondly.
“We are good friends. I have two kids for him so once in a while I say hello to him.”
But if they would get back together as a couple, the actress said, “I don’t know”.
