The ruling People’s Democratic Party also won the Governors ward -Odu 1 with total number of 1323 votes while APC polled 603 votes.

JEGA IS THE MAN OF THE MOMENT IN NIGERIA TODAY

On Tuesday March 31, 2015, when a PDP man, Godsday Orubebe, tried to hold the entire Nigeria to ransom by preventing INEC chairman, Prof Attahiru Jega from announcing the results of the Presidential Election and declare the right winner, Jega remained very calm all through. Nigerians were highly impressed by Jega's disposition and statement. Thus we at OluFamous.Com have endorsed the Chairman of INEC as The Man of The Moment. Kudos, Jega!

Buhari is Beating Jonathan in Imo, Kwara, Ondo, Oyo, Osun, Lagos

The results are trickling in and from what OluFamous.Com has observed so far, Muhammadu Buhari of the APC is clearly leading Goodluck Jonathan of the PDP in the South-West, North-East, North-West and parts of North Central.

So far, Jonathan is only having a good show in Ekiti State in the South-West and Abia State in the South-East from results obtained directly from Polling Units as authoristed by INEC.

In the Nort-East and North-West, Buhari is leading with a wide margin so far. In fact, in Lagos State, President Jonathan is getting some serious bashing from Buhari.

In Ondo State that is even controlled by a strong PDP governor, the decamping of the deputy governor to the APC is really paying off. So far, Buhari is winning in Ondo.

Female Singer Adokiye has lost her Virginity?

Since declaring that she was still a virgin, Adokiye has been staying away from men, doing her thing on her own. But that has now changed.

Heart-wrenching: Elephant spends 11 hours trying to pull her baby from a muddy well(Photos)

 If you are one of those who feel animals don't have feelings, this may change your mind..The heart-wrenching moment a mother elephant desperately tried to pull her baby from a well was captured on camera...She stayed by her baby's side for 11 hours,trying to rescue her..

The determined mum refused to leave her calf, first using her trunk and then her feet in a bid to haul her precious baby to safety.

Unfortunately the frantic mother elephant made matters worse by accidentally pushing more mud into the well and almost smothering the baby, which was trapped from 9pm until 8am the following morning.

Gbemi Saraki dumps Jonathan on Election Day, backs Buhari

Things are happening in this strong election. Senator Gbemisola Saraki who has been consistently speculated to have plans to defect from the PDP to the APC may have finally declared for APC and directed all her supporters to vote for Muhammadu Buhari in the presidential election on Saturday.

Gbemi Saraki who is the first daughter of 2nd Republic Senate Leader, Olusola Saraki, has been uncomfortable with PDP in recent times. Her brother, Bukola Saraki, is the leader of APC in Kwara.

It was gathered that she has addressed her supporters and asked them to vote for APC's Buhari.

One of her ardent followers who was at the briefing confirmed to Daily Trust that Senator Gbemi Saraki was quoted as asking them “to go out tomorrow (Saturday) with your broom and sweep your communities clean,”

apparently directing them to vote for APC presidential candidate, Mohammadu Buhari.

Pastor Benny Hinn hospitalize

Charismatic pastor/televangelist Benny Hinn, known for his popular international healing ministry and Pentecostal styled services was rushed to the hospital Friday upon returning from a trip to Brazil which resulted in a heart attack.

Although many reports are swirling about what happened to Hinn, a letter penned by his daughter offers the full explanation and the events that led to her father's hospitalization. Jessica Hinn Koulianos wrote that after a crusade in Brazil that had crowds of over 100,000 her dad began to feel.

"After he arrived home he suddenly began battling fatigue and shortness of breath," his daughter, wrote in a letter posted to the Benny Hinn Ministries website, "For those of you who know my Dad, you know that he never stops; so when he spent over a week in bed, we knew something was wrong."

Hinn, 62, is now being treated for "lack of oxygen in his cardiovascular system," and although his daughter did not call it a heart attack, popular reports claim that it was.

Rivers APC Alleges assassination attempt on Gov. Amaechi

...Dismisses rumour of Ikanya’s defection

The Rivers State Chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has alleged an assassination attempt on the State Governor, Rt. Hon. Chibuike Amaechi. Rivers APC Chairman, Dr. Davies Ibiamu Ikanya, said that the attempt took place on Thursday at the Rumuolumeni area of Port Harcourt, the State capital. The attempt to kill Amaechi was made by some unidentified gun-wielding youths who had first blocked the exit route of the governor’s convoy. As the suspected killers advanced to where Amaechi was addressing supporters of All Progressives Congress, APC, where he had gone for the final leg of the part’s door-to-door campaign in Obio/Akpor, the governor’s security details returned fire. Amaechi was shielded by his security personnel to safety. He, however, was not hurt.

Unconfirmed reports stated that a certain number of men have been allegedly commissioned to kill Amaechi on Saturday in Ubima, Ikwerre local government when he shall visit to cast his vote during the March 28 Presidential election.

Rivers Dep Governor Ikuru was PDP Mole in APC - Rivers APC

 

 

The defection of Deputy Governor of Rivers State, Engr. Tele Ikuru, from the All Progressives Congress (APC) to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has been described as good riddance to bad rubbish.

In a statement he issued on Sunday in Port Harcourt shortly after Ikuru announced his defection, Rivers APC Chairman, Dr. Davies Ibiamu Ikanya, said:

“Contrary to the thinking in some quarters, the defection of Engr. Tele Ikuru did not come to us as a surprise. Rather than being shocked, we feel relieved that he is no more part of us because Ikuru was a PDP mole in our midst. Unknown to most people, Ikuru initially refused to leave PDP for APC with Governor Rotimi Amaechi in November 2013. However, after series of meetings with his uncle and political mentor, Chief Uche Secondus, the National Vice Chairman of PDP, and some other PDP bigwigs, he was prevailed upon to follow his principal into APC.

SHOCKER: Politician Who Predicted Buhari’s Death Is Dead

Death has nothing to do with age at all. If you don't live right, you will most likely die even before your own father or grandfather. That is the scenario that has played out here before our very eyes.

A commissioner in Benue State mocked General Buhari and called him ‘quarter-to-go’ close to his grave. But the same man is said to have slumped and died at the age of 46. What really happened?

Aondowase Chia was a commissioner in Benue State. His death has caused ripples within political circles in Nigeria. He had mocked the 72-year-old APC presidential candidate General Muhammadu Buhari, calling him ‘quarter-to-go’, insinuating that Buhari was close to his grave. But now he is gone!

I just hope the likes of Governor Ayo Fayose will learn from this saga and be more careful.

President Jonathan’s dangerous alliance with MASSOB & OPC

 

Nigeria's uncanny romance with ethnic militias got an official boost recently when two distinctly dodgy groups, with notorious antecedents of constant brushes with the law, emerged as the chief campaigners for both the sacking of the Independent National Electoral Commission boss, Attahiru Jega, and the reelection of President Goodluck Jonathan. As expected, due to their violent antecedents, both the Movement for the Actualisation of the Sovereign State of Biafra and the Oodua Peoples Congress reportedly disturbed public peace in Awka, Anambra State and Lagos State respectively as they took to the streets to drive home their points.

What was striking about the incidents was the conduct of both groups during their demonstrations. While, in Awka, reports had it that MASSOB’s protest march was relatively peaceful in that people were not harassed, the same could not be said of the conduct of the OPC members in Lagos. They were armed and aggressive towards passers-by...

PDP Board of Trustee Member, Victor Attah, Endorses APC

 

The former governor of Akwa Ibom state and PDP Board of Trustee member, Obong Victor Attah on Saturday attended the All Progressive Congress (APC) rally at Akwa Ibom and endorsed APC governorship candidate Obong Okon Umana against PDP candidate Emmanuel Udom in the forthcoming elections in Nigeria.

Attah told the mammoth crowd in live televised broadcast on NTA at Uyo where the APC grand rally took place that his decision to support Umunna was based on the desire for change in Akwa Ibom.

Attah said as a political leader in the state, he had to align himself with the majority of the people who want Umana as their governor. He said despite the fact that he is a member of PDP it was his duty to identify with the wishes of the people of Akwa Ibom.

He also urged the people to vote for APC senatorial candidate who is contesting against the governor of the state, Godswill Akpabio who he accused of breaching the agreement of zoning in the state because of his selfish interest.

Father Mbaka shuts his Church because of Jonathan and Wife

 

Outspoken Catholic Priest, Reverend Fr. Ejike Mbaka of Adoration Ministries, Enugu, has suspended his weekly crusade until after the general elections due to alleged threat to his life by the Presidency.

This left no fewer than 100,000 worshippers stranded and disappointed last Friday. The Adoration Ground in Emene, Enugu, is noted for attracting over 100,000 worshippers every Friday from the South-East zone and beyond for spiritual healing and deliverance from satanic attacks. 

Father Mbaka had in a statement stated that: 

“It is with a deep sense of concern that we are constrained to make this statement on the continued threat to the life of Rev. Fr. Ejike Mbaka over his 2015 New Year message titled ‘From Good Luck to Bad Luck.’ “Last Wednesday, mean looking men in a black Hilux besieged his parish compound but they left disappointed when they could not see him”. 

I No Longer See Patience Jonathan as the First Lady – Soyinka

 

Nobel laureate ,Wole Soyinka has announced that he nolonger sees Dame Patience Jonathan as Nigeria’s first lady; THE CABLE reports. Soyinka made the comment after listening to the first lady’s outburst during campaign rallies organised by the Peoples Democratic Party.

She had been quoted as saying Muhammadu Buhari, presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, APC is brain dead and urging supporters to stone anybody that preaches ‘Change’.

In his reaction, Soyinka told DW, a German radio station, "What she said was totally unacceptable. I no longer regard her as the first lady of Nigeria”.

APC Lists Jonathan's 25 Sins Against Rivers State [DETAILS]

 

President Goodluck Jonathan has committed gross sins against Rivers State without any justification and will pay for these sins during the 28th March, 2015 presidential election, the Rivers Chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has said. The party in a statement issued in Port Harcourt by the State Chairman, Dr. Davies Ibiamu Ikanya, listed 25 sins committed by President Jonathan against Rivers State and her people, insisting that he will not be allowed to win the votes to be cast in the State during the March 28 poll.

Ikanya listed the sins as follows:

President Jonathan failed to muster the courage and political will in a PDP-controlled National Assembly to see to the passage of the Petroleum Industry Bill (PIB) in the over six years of his administration to demonstrate his hatred for the Niger Delta region knowing that communities in Rivers State will benefit from the bill. 

The East/West Road, especially Eleme-Onne axis in Rivers State, has not only been abandoned but is a nightmare to travellers and commuters.

MKO Abiola's daughter, Hafsat Abiola, has Endorsed Buhari

 

Hafsat Abiola, daughter of M.K.O Abiola has endorsed the APC presidential candidate, Muhammadu Buhari. In an article written by Hafsat, she stated categorically that: “I endorse General Muhammadu Buhari fully and without reservation.” Below is the full text of Hafsat Abiola's piece:

“Dear Nigerians,
Saturday is D-Day. It is a moment of joy that Nigeria has again been given an opportunity to stand on its feet. In this, I see clear evidence of God’s love for us. But we must now do our part. Let money not blind us to the task that is ours to do for the wealth that can be ours is far greater than any that our friends might offer us to induce our support for their candidate.

Over the last few days I have had the opportunity to meet with the foreign minister of the Netherlands and later to speak to members of his staff. They sought my opinion on the rape of girls and women by Boko Haram. Is rape being used as a weapon of war as is the situation in Congo?, they wondered.

Buhari and The First Lady "Plaque"

Since 1957, when Nigerian Delegates sat to deliberate at the 1957 Constitutional Conference, there has always been the presence of women. Although Nigerian Politics have been dominated by men, women have somehow found ways to perform “office” functions. The concept of having a First Lady in Nigeria could be rightly traced to the period of Lady Flora Lugard, the wife of Lord Frederick Lugard, first colonial Governor-General of Nigeria (the man, who in 1914 unified the northern and southern protectorate of Nigeria into one country). It is to her credit that the country got her name, Nigeria.

With her 36 states, the Federal Capital Territory and 774 local government areas, Nigeria is believed to have over 800 women who enjoy this position of eminence as 'first among equals'.

Although there is no constitutional provision for the office of the first lady, material and personnel resources of the state are usually deployed to service it with impunity.

PDP Governors in secret meetings with APC to defeat Jonathan

This is the first time in Nigeria when a running party is truly afraid of the opposition in the days leading to the Presidential election. And it appears the situation is even more dire than most of us could have imagine.

Chairman of All Progressives Congress, APC, Governors Forum, and governor of Imo State, Owelle Rochas Ojorocha has revealed that seven Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, governors were secretly holding meetings and strategizing in favour of the party in a bid a bring Change to Nigeria.

This came as national leader of the party, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, said the federal government has allegedly diverted money meant to insure security men, especially those fighting insurgency in the North East.

Cristiano Ronaldo and his ex-model girlfriend Irina Shayk broke up in December 2014 after dating for five years and it looks like it ended in bad blood. Irina Shayk took a swipe at her ex, saying she she felt 'ugly standing next to the wrong man'.

In an interview with Spanish magazine Hola, Irina spoke about her ideal man. She said;

"My ideal man is faithful, honest and a gentleman who knows how to treat women. I don't believe in men who make us feel unhappy, because they're boys not men. I thought I had once found the ideal man but it didn't turn out that way" She added: 'I think a woman feels ugly when she's got the wrong man at her side. I've felt ugly and insecure.'

FG makes clemency plea for Nigerians sentenced to death for drug trafficking in Indonesia

The Federal government made a move yesterday March 9th to stop the execution of three Nigerians in Indonesia over their involvement in drug trafficking offenses, a crime that attracts death sentence in Indonesia. At a meeting with the Indonesian Ambassador, Harry Purwanto, in Abuja yesterday March 9th, the Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Foreign Affairs Mr Danjuma Sheni,  appealed to the Ambassador to help prevail on his government to convert the death sentences to Life imprisonment as well as expedite action on the exchange of prisoners between both countries.

I am also to use this occasion your Excellency to appeal to you on the need to quickly complete the ongoing exchange of prisoners negotiations that we have with your country. We wish that this be completed on time so that our nationals who may be caught up there would have their opportunity to serve their sentences in Nigeria" he said
