I met with the DSS on Sunday at about 3pm and I drove there on my own.
Oshiomhole, however, did not expressly confirm or deny if he met with the President on the DSS matter, when questioned on the subject.
He continued: "On my meeting with the President, the President is the President of Nigeria and he is elected on the platform of our party, which I am privileged currently to be the Chairman of. I visit the villa at least two to three times a week. I have a duty to brief Mr. President on what were doing in the party. I have the privilege...

Garga added that the gangsters carted 200 cows, 300 sheep and some goats away after the attack.

Nothing can stop the zeal of Nigerians to elect the president of their choice.
He said Nigerians had a better alternative by sticking to President Muhammadu Buhari who he claimed had done so much to ensure better future for them.
But Atiku’s spokesman, Paul Ibe, dismissed Nabena’s claims.
Ibe said the forthcoming election would not be about money but the supreme will of Nigerians.
He said, “Nothing can stop an idea whose time has come. Nothing can stop the zeal of Nigerians to elect the president of their choice.
“This election will not be won by money or lies or propaganda or intimidation but by the supreme...
Why Buhari told Diaspora Nigerians not to vote in 2019 elections.
On the participation of Nigerians in diaspora in the forthcoming elections, the President said the population of citizens in various countries across the world already necessitate their inclusion to elect leaders, noting that it might not happen in the 2019 elections as the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, had been more focused on strengthening and consolidating on its achievements of conducting credible elections within the country. Stressing that it could happen in future, he added that the Nigerian constitution had taken into...
President's Advice to Nigerian elites, both at home and in the diaspora.
President Buhari enjoined Nigerian elites, both at home and in the diaspora, to do more in contributing to the educational sector of the country, expressing surprise that the elites tolerated the fall in standards and structures of educational institutions despite oil windfalls. He said, “I am doing my best now to utilize our resources to develop the country,’’ he said. “ We are already getting results on road, rail and power.
My frustration is that some people still have plenty stolen money stashed in Europe, U S and other countries.’’ President...

Olusegun Obasanjo's Hopes on Youth
He said despite challenges, he was hopeful that Africa and indeed Nigeria have youths who possess “intellectual prowess and ingenuity capable of leading Africa to the promised land.”
He said, “Enough of using other people’s children as experimental subjects and keeping ours in safe havens. Enough of using other people’s children as political thugs and ballot box snuffers, while we send ours to Ivy League schools.
“Enough of thinking we know what is right for young people without their input or the courtesy of asking for their opinions.

To achieve this goal, the INEC chairman called on all stakeholders — governments, election administrators, security agencies, civil society groups, the media, political parties, candidates and their supporters — to play their roles.

He said that at the end of the exercise, some 14.5 million Nigerians were added to the existing register...
“We are working to ensure optimal performance of the Smart Card Readers,” the INEC Chairman said.

SaharaReporters can also confirm that the figures mentioned earlier are nothing compared to what the DSS documented in a report it forwarded to the presidency and the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) some days ago.

Speaking to journalists after the presentation, the President of the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC), Comrade Ayuba Wabba, said every member of the tripartite committee signed the report.

On the capacity of state governments to pay the N30,000, he said “the N18,000 was being paid from 2011 to 2015 until when most of the states emptied their treasuries before elections.
“It was coincidence. In 2011, it was almost at...
N30,000 wage will cause inflation – Umahi

Commenting on the impact of the new wage on inflation, Professor of Economist, Derin Ologbenla of the University of Lagos said: “We must pay a living wage.

“The workers will buy goods and services and the money will boost the economy of the country.”
He argued that most state governors do not understand the impact of paying a living wage.
Ologbenla said: “The private companies know these....

She said, “Nobody can impeach me because I have not committed any offence...
APC’s strategies and tactics
Igbokwe said the APC’s strategies and tactics for building virile and democratic institutions were beyond the comprehension of Lagos PDP leaders.
He added: “The Lagos PDP claim of ‘hurried and controversial emergence’ of Sanwo-Olu shows lack of clear understanding of the dynamics and inner workings of Lagos APC.
“What Lagos APC did is to advance the cause of democracy and prove that the party is supreme as we have seen in other climes like South Africa, where former President Mbeki and Zuma were asked to step down in order to advance and...
