GEJ fired SURE-P boss for attending Obasanjo’s birthday event?

Posted: 10 Mar 2015 10:08 AM PDT

That's the trending discussion right now on social media. Presidential spokesperson Reuben Abati a few hours ago announced the sack of SURE-P boss, Martin Luther Agwai, and now there are reports that he was sacked for attending former president Obasanjo's birthday event last week.

Premium Times reports
Premium Times understands reliably that Mr. Agwai was fired for flouting a presidential instruction that no government official or member of the ruling PDP, should attend the birthday event of former President Olusegun Obasanjo, last week.
Sources within the presidency told Premium Times that all government functionaries were instructed by President Jonathan to boycott Mr. Obasanjo's birthday event.
Our sources said when informed of the president's warning, Mr. Agwai, who climbed to the pinnacle of his career under the Obasanjo administration, said he will go ahead and attend the function, more so, in view of the president's directive. Our sources said for daring the president, it was clear Mr. Agwai would be fired.
One source said it appears Mr. Agwai was informed ahead of the announcement of his removal Tuesday, as the former defence chief arrived early at the SURE-P office to pack his belongings.
Mr. Agwai himself replaced Christopher Kolade, who left office after criticising the president

APC debunks myth of Buhari's one term as President (if elected)

Posted: 10 Mar 2015 09:54 AM PDT

Press statement from the APC
The All Progressives Congress (APC) has debunked the myth being peddled by the PDP that Gen. Buhari will spend only one term in office if elected President, saying it is the creation of the PDP which is seeking to play a section of the country against another.
"The APC will not abridge the right of Gen. Muhammadu Buhari to spend the constitutionally-guaranteed two terms as President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria if elected in the March 28th poll,'' the party said in a statement issued in Lagos on Tuesday by its National Publicity Secretary, Alhaji Lai Mohammed.

''No conditionality whatsoever was attached to Gen. Buhari's candidacy. He won the party primaries fair and square in a globally-acclaimed transparent manner, and he was neither a compromise nor a consensus candidate, hence there is no need for him to make a deal with anyone.

''We are therefore telling Nigerians to disregard the tales by the moonlight which some PDP elements are yarning, in their desperation to muddle the waters ahead of the forthcoming elections and create disaffection between a section of the country and another,'' it said.

APC said it had ignored the myth all long because it was being peddled by fringe elements in the PDP, but decided to put the record straight once and for all after those who were thought to be saner elements in the ruling party started parroting the same incredulous lies.

''This myth that Buhari will spend one term, after which power will return to the South-west, is along the same line as the outlandish claim that our Vice Presidential Candidate, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo, has sworn to an oath to resign in favour of Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu once elected.

''The question to ask is: When will the PDP stop this campaign of calumny and character assassination against our candidates and leaders? When will they stop this one-day, one-lie nonsense?

''The truth is that Gen. Buhari's candidacy has brought out the worst in the PDP leadership and supporters, including Mr. President and his wife. Unfortunately for them, the more they campaign against our candidate, the more popular he becomes. Perhaps the PDP would have stood a better chance of winning the forthcoming polls if its State Governors, in particular, have devoted as much time and energy to running their states as they have devoted to maligning Gen. Buhari,'' the party said.

Posted: 10 Mar 2015 09:48 AM PDT

MTO will not kill somebody with their stories. They've left Rihanna alone, now it's Nicki Minaj that's pregnant - for Meek Mill that she started dating three hours ago. #rollseyes! Find the report below...
 MediaTakeOut.com just confirmed - that Nicki Minaj is pregnant, with her partner Meek Mill baby. This is not rumor, it's fact! We spoke with two independent sources, who were right beside Nicki on Sunday night at the Chris Brown concert. We're told that Nicki drank no alcohol whatsoever - and was sucking on special lollipops, that are designed to stop nausea in pregnant women, called "pregnancy pops".
One EXTREMELY reliable insider (a celeb) told us, Nicki is definitely pregnant. She was glowing and smiling with her friends. She was sucking on a "pregnancy pop" so I know she's pregnant."
Congratulations are in order for Nicki and Meek. We love them two as a couple . . . and wish them ALL THE BEST with their new family. Imagine how LYRICALLY NICE their kid will be . . . if he or she grows up to be a rapper.
This s a MediaTakeOut.com exclusive - which contains nothing but #FACTS#. If you use ANYTHING in this report, you MUST credit MediaTakeOut.com.

OMG! School kids die on their way back from excursion. (Graphic photos)

Posted: 10 Mar 2015 09:38 AM PDT

Some school children going on an excursion to the mount Afadjato in Ghana lost their lives in an extremely horrible accident today March 10th. According to an eye-witness, the vehicle the children were in was almost finishing the mountainous portion when the driver lost control and fell into the ditch killing pupils between the ages of 7-15 years.

They were from Kasoa going towards Afadjato on an excursion. They sent me a number of photos from the accident but it's so graphic I can use three. In other photos I can't share, some of the children are missing their heads. Too sad and too horrible. Our hearts go out to all the parents who lost their kids. See the pics after the cut but please be warned it's quite graphic

Nigerians have become refugees - Mama Blessings Agboli

Posted: 10 Mar 2015 09:22 AM PDT

The United Nations has said that thousands of Nigerians who escaped attacks by Boko Haram are stuck on some of the countless little islands that dot Lake Chad and are in dire need of food, water and shelter.Chad's Lake Region is one of the poorest and least developed countries in the world.

The current situation is quite complex, due to the influx of Nigerians in Chad there has been an economic situation which has lead Chad closing its ground borders to Nigerians and in Nigeria political tension threatens naira.


The naira has crashed through the key level of 200 to the dollar this week in a rout sparked by weak oil prices and escalating tension over the postponement of a presidential election. To this mama blessings Agboli wife of renowned preacher and senior pastor victorious army ministries, Rev. Dominic Agboli reacts "our economy is crashing right before us and Nigerians have become refugees in neighbouring countries why can't We put our differences aside and collectively create a centre where these homeless Nigerians can find succour? If We continue like this what future does the Country hold for us and our children" while emphasizing that security centers where provision of food and other basics has become imperative.

Chris Brown thinks Karrueche used him to become famous?

Posted: 10 Mar 2015 09:02 AM PDT

Let me break it down so you understand. Y'all know Karrueche publicly broke up with Chris Brown after news of his secret baby broke. So some days ago, a diehard Chris Brown fan posted this old tweet by a guy named Jacob York, where (York) explained how Karrueche could exploit the Chris-Rihanna-Karrueche love triangle to her benefit and get fame from it. That tweet was from back in 2012. Thing is, York is a well known publicist& after this tweet, Karrueche hired him as her manager.

Now, back to 2015 and these fans believe Karrueche broke up with Chris publicly for the fame and is still exploiting Chris and Rihanna for publicity. Looks like Chris bought into this reasoning because he went on the post and commented. Continue...

Some pastors collected money to preach against Buhari - Adams Oshiomhole

Posted: 10 Mar 2015 07:26 AM PDT

Edo state Governor Adams Oshiomole alleges that some pastors have collected money to preach against APC Presidential candidate, Gen Buhari. Oshiomole made the allegation while receiving a PDP Chairmanship candidate and 2000 PDP members who defected to the APC yesterday March 9th.
"Some pastors after collecting money are now preaching that Buhari wants to convert the nation to Islam. When Buhari was Head of State with absolute power, did he convert Nigeria to Islam? Did he convert Dodan Barracks to Islam enclave? Are there not Christian Generals all over the place? The issue of this election is not about religion or tribe. It is about who has what it takes to repair our country. It is about who will give us light. If PDP couldn't give us light in 16 years, shouldn't we give it to someone else?
Take a critical look at this election, when NEPA takes light, do they segregate between Christians and Muslims? When they bring fixed charges, do they differentiate between Christians and Muslims? Are both Christians and Muslims not suffering the inefficiency of PDP's 16 years of mis-governance? They are saying APC is a Muslim Party. How can a party that parades Christians such as me, Chief John Oyegun, Prof Osinbanjo and many others be described as a Muslim Party? Now let's look at it, if Nigeria's problem is about religion, since 1999 till now, Christians have ruled the nation for 14 years, how come if it is really about religion that despite ruling for 14 years, Nigeria that ought to be like heaven is still like hell? Nobody should use God's name to deceive the people. The matter of governance is not about what you claim but about the state of your heart. In this state, from 1999 till now, all those that have governed Edo State are all Christians yet those that governed from 1999 till 2007 did nothing. Are we not all Christians but is it all of us that worked? They even stole from Church because when you do not pay salaries for 3 months can the workers pay their tithe?
In Edo State, Christians, Muslims and Traditional worshippers live together in peace and harmony. Across Edo State you find people of different religion and nobody should bring religious war to Edo State. While appealing to the people to jealousy guard their PVCs, Oshiomhole said: "In this local government we have always won and in this 2015, we will still win. PDP has destroyed Nigeria and we must vote them out. Now they are planning how to rig the election but it won't work. If anyone approaches you to sell your PVC, do not sell it. Don't sell your voting right for one meal.
When they approach you to exchange your PVC for money, refuse and let them know that your poverty cannot be negated for stupidity. This month of March, by the Grace of God we are marching to victory." Leader of the decampees, Chief Edegbe Ugbogbo said he went to test the PDP but couldn't cope and assured the Governor that he will collaborate with the APC leadership to sustain development in the state as he is very impressed with the developmental strides of the State Governor. "I am here with my followers to formally return to the All Progressive Congress and come March 28th and April 11th, 2015, we will ensure that APC wins in all the wards of this Local Government." he said

Anti-counterfeiting: Kasapreko unveils Alomo Bitters with hologram seal around bottle cap

Posted: 10 Mar 2015 05:41 AM PDT

In yet another strategic step to help consumers to differentiate the authentic Alomo Bitters more easily, Kasapreko Company Nigeria Limited, producer of the multiple award-winning medicinal alcoholic beverage unveiled the new look Alomo Bitters in Lagos.

Consequently, lovers of Alomo Bitters can now continue to enjoy their favourite medicinal herbal drink that comes in the 75centilitre glass & 200 millimeter pet bottles now fortified with a Hologram seal around the bottle caps.

The Hologram seal is a silver-like shining seal which is similar to that found on the non-polymer Nigerian Naira notes, and it has been strategically positioned around the cap of every bottle of Alomo Bitters for easy identification of the authentic brand from imitation.

Speaking at the unveiling in Lagos, on Thursday, February 26 2015, the Managing Director, Kasapreko Company Nigeria Limited, Mr. Kojo Nunoo said the introduction of hologram seal around the caps is one of the initiatives by the company to checkmate criminal faking of Alomo Bitters by unscrupulous profiteers and to protect consumers against the consumption of substandard products which endanger human life. 

The refreshed packaging for Alomo Bitters, according to him, is also aimed at empowering consumers to have access to genuine Alomo Bitters at all times. He added that it further demonstrated the company's care for the consumers and their safety.

"This initiative is a security standard for global brands, and essentially it is meant to ensure clear brand differentiation and to highlight the unique features that distinguish Alomo Bitters from the imitated version and other substandard bitter products in the market," Nunoo said.

He added, ''criminal faking of the original Alomo Bitters has been a major challenge we face in Nigeria. As a company that places priority on the wellbeing of our consumers, this bothers us a lot. Hence the launch of the new hologram is aimed at helping the consumers identify the authentic Alomo Bitters when making purchase.'' 

While buttressing the process involved in having the hologram security feature around the cap of Alomo Bitters bottles, Nunoo said the company went as far as Germany and the United States to get reputable hologram seal companies to create the unique hologram for the brand. "This is how much we value the wellbeing of our consumers," he stressed.

Speaking on the rationale for the new Hologram seal, the Marketing Manager, Kasapreko Company Nigeria Limited, Mr. Peter Adegor, said the need to protect Alomo Bitters brand equity and to continue to guarantee consumer safety were paramount to the management of the company.  

He informed that whilst between 2011 and 2012 Alomo Bitters accounted for about 80 per cent of the bitters market share, the position of the brand has today been threatened by the devilish imitation of the original product which has made it difficult for the consumers to distinguish their favourite Alomo Bitters from the fake.

"We need to exterminate this fear and reassure consumers that they can still enjoy their favourite Alomo Bitters. The launch of the hologram seal, therefore, demonstrates our determination to make sure our consumers continue to live healthy and active lives by having access to the genuine and authentic herbal drink they have always stayed with, which is Alomo Bitters," Adegor said. 

Special Guest and Representative from Consumer Protection Council (CPC) in Lagos State, Barrister. Tam Tamunokombia, commended Kasapreko for taking this bold step in consumer protection, and said the dangers of consuming counterfeit and substandard products were numerous and may even result in loss of life.

"With the hologram seal now around the bottle caps of Alomo Bitters, I am glad that consumers will not only continue to enjoy their favourite medicinal Alomo Bitters, but they will do so safely and confidently," he said.
