Graphic photos: APC members shot dead in Rivers state, many arrested

Posted: 28 Mar 2015 12:03 PM PDT

I just received gruesome photos of dead men and a press statement from the APC in Rivers state. Looks like election in some areas in the state was very violent. Read statement below and see the pics after the cut.. *viewer discretion advised*
Today's presidential and National Assembly elections have turned out to be a big nightmare for the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Rivers State, with the members being killed, attacked and disenfranchised in various parts of the State.
 "Armed militias working for the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) have intensified their killing of APC members. Scores have already been killed and several others marked for elimination. This morning in Kpite Town, Tai Ward 2 and other areas of the State, five people were shot dead by PDP's armed militia, and that was before accreditation commenced," Rivers APC Chairman, Dr. Davies Ibiamu Ikanya, said in a statement in Port Harcourt. Pictures of our killed members are attached.

Lamenting his party's ordeal, Ikanya said: "It is sad that PDP and its collaborators are targeting APC strongholds and chieftains for attacks and killings. To intimidate our people and contrary to the court ruling forbidding the use of the Army in this election, there has been a massive deployment of soldiers in the State with clear instruction to shoot at sight any APC agent that refuses to comply with the evil plot of PDP to write the results of the election at some designated areas of the State in favour of PDP."

Chief Ikanya gave the following specific horrifying examples of APC's travails:

•Hon. Chidiebere Okwuwolu, former Commissioner and currently an APC leader, was arrested by police and taken to Olu Obasanjo Police Station in Port Harcourt along with 99 other arrested APC members scattered in various Police Stations in the State.

•At Ubima, the home town of Governor Chibuike Amaechi, the INEC results sheets are currently with Chief Nyesome Wike, the guber candidate of PDP in Rivers State. Governor Amaechi has refused to embark upon any accreditation because of lack of result sheets in all the polling units in the State, a situation contrived by INEC and PDP to make room for PDP to rig the election.

•At Andoni, the Local Government Area of Rivers State APC Chairman, Dr. Davies Ibiamu Ikanya, and Chief Uche Secondus, the National Vice Chairman of PDP and his cousin, Engr Tele Ikuru (the Deputy Governor of Rivers State who few days defected to PDP) hell has been let loose; electoral materials have been hijacked by PDP agents in connivance with the Army that has been threatening to arrest and kill any APC chieftains in sight.

•The Caretaker Committee Chairman of Andoni Local Government area, Esuku Esuku, has been ordered out of Ngo, headquarters of Local Government, by the Joint Task Force (JTF)/army personnel deployed to Ngo, or be killed.•At Abonnema, headquarters of Akuku-Toru Local Government, materials are being distributed from the house of Minister of Sports, Chief Tammy Danagogo, instead of the INEC office, without any security personnel. Danagogo has held the policemen that ought to escort these materials to the polling units hostage and injuring DPO of Abonnema, Mr. Joseph Kayode for daring to accompany Hon Isobo Jack the Commissioner for Urban Development to the Polling Unit, relevant pictures attached.

•PDP thugs hijacked materials and INEC personnel meant for Akuku-Toru Wards 15, 16 and 17. The hijacked materials and men were taken to Freetown, a hinterland coastal community. The attack was led by two youths whose identities are known. •In Tombia, in same Akuku-Toru Local Government, PDP had by Fridaynight filled the community with Ijaw Youth Council (IYC) bouncers who were attacking APC members and, at the same time, preventing those returning home to vote from entering the town. They were doing so in the presence of soldiers who were too few in number. The Caretaker Committer Chairman and others were injured on Friday. The over 30 APC members that were to act as agents were arrested.  •In Buguma, which is the Headquarters of Asari-Toru Local government, policemen were busy all day arresting APC chieftains.•In Gokana Local Government, trained INEC ad-hoc personnel were replaced with untrained manpower suspected to be PDP members. This is believed to have been done in connivance with the LGA Electoral Officer (EO).

•At Opobo/Nkoro, the Local Government Area of Dr. Dakuku Adol Peterside, the gubernatorial candidate of APC, the house of Opobo/Nkoro Caretaker Committee Chairman, Loveday Jaja, was torched after he escaped to avoid being killed by the PDP hoodlums. Electoral materials meant for the Local Government Area have been diverted to John Africa/Ada Tom Pepple Compound area where they are thumb-printing in favour of PDP. One Barrister J.B Pepple was caught with stained thumbs and he admitted to thumb-printing. Another person Alafagha Oko-Jaja had his head broken head and he is seriously bleeding. No one is sure if he will survive.The army has been going around the community harassing people while Chiefs in Kalaibiama are compelling them to vote for President Goodluck Jonathan of PDP. This is said to be on the orders of Chief of Army Staff, Major-General Kenneth Minimah, who is also from the town.
Mr. Harold Peterside a PDP Agent in Unit 006 Ward, Oopbo/Nkoro was caught with INEC Register and fake Results Sheet at the Polling Unit.
 •At Oyigbo LGA, 40,000 incident forms were being given out at 6:30 a.m.but they stopped when the APC Agent complained about it. He was however asked to leave the INEC office at about 11:30 a.m. Already, 120,000 incident forms have been to Port Harcourt LGA, 80,000 to Obio/Akpor and 50,000 to Ikwerre LGA. The incident forms are one of the ways PDP plans to use to rig the elections around the country, especially in the South South and South East.

•In Okrika, there was sudden change and appearance of fresh and inadequately trained INEC ad-hoc staff who tried to persuade voters to undergo manual accreditation, claiming that card readers assigned to Okrika LGA polling booths were not working (even without trying them). In a few units where APC supporters insisted on 'No Card, No Accreditation', the card readers mysteriously began to work. But in majority of the places manual accreditation is being undertaken.Also in Okrika, there is insufficient delivery of electoral materials by INEC. Up till now no one, not even party agents, has seen the original result collation sheets. The INEC officials claim it is not everything that they must explain. Meanwhile, INEC delivered incident forms far excess of the number of registered voters.

Meanwhile, PDP stalwarts are openly parading bundles of PVC cards in their possession. Rowland Sekibo, accompanied by police and PDP thugs armed with guns, are going around chasing away APC members from doing accreditation. They had done so in wards 1, 7, 8, 9 and 2. They tore the tags of our agents, beat them and chased them away, injuring scores of them.

"We condemn this brazen rape of democracy by PDP in collaboration with INEC and the security agents. It is unacceptable as this is not what democracy should be. PDP should allow Rivers people to vote without guns pointed at their throats," Dr. Ikanya said in the statement.

Dr Ikanya passed a vote of no confidence on the State Resident Electoral Commissioner, Gesila Khan, declaring that she has failed woefully as she is bent on carrying out her secret agreement with PDP to return victory to the party at all cost. Whatever trash she will announce as the result of today's election is not acceptable to us and we ask for her immediate transfer and a new date be set for a proper election in Rivers State than the sham and charade that was calculated to rubbish INEC and democracy.

The pictures of our killed members are attached.

Long Live APC!
Long Live Rivers State!!

Card reader hiccups avoidable - PDP. Warns against under-aged voters

Posted: 28 Mar 2015 11:08 AM PDT

Press statement from the PDP. Read below...
The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) says the poor working of the Permanent Voter Card readers in Saturday's Presidential and National Assembly elections across the country could have been avoided if INEC had listened to sound advice from well meaning individuals and organizations including the PDP regarding their deployment without proper testing.

National Publicity Secretary of PDP, Olisa Metuh in a statement on Saturday said the last minute resort to manual accreditation by INEC hours into the exercise against its earlier guidelines clearly shows the failure of the system.



"The unfortunate development is a vindication of our earlier position that as good as the idea of card readers is, it was too virgin to be successfully used in a general election without proper testing especially in an environment as ours that is not entirely digitally proficient", it said.



The party described as a huge national embarrassment the that the card reader had problems in accrediting President Goodluck Jonathan, Governors Jonah Jang, of Plateau, James Ngilari of Adamawa, Isa Yuguda of Buachi among others and called for thorough explanation from INEC.



The PDP equally frowned at reported cases of accreditation of under-aged persons in some states especially in the northern part of the country and called on INEC not only to ensure that such unqualified persons are not allowed to vote but also to prosecute its officials involved in the crime.



The ruling party said it is seriously concerned about the developments given the avowed commitment of the President Goodluck Jonathan-led PDP administration to hitch-free, fair and credible electoral process.



It charged the electoral commission to take urgent steps within the law to ensure that no willing and qualified voter is disenfranchised, while urging Nigerians to remain calm in the overall interest of the nation.

Olisa Metuh
National Publicity Secretary

Stop The Drum Beats Of War! “The Forest Dames”

Posted: 28 Mar 2015 08:06 AM PDT

Invitation letters went round town heralding the launch of "The Forest Dames" on the 20th of March 2015, at the National Press Centre, Radio House, Abuja.

Before the launch day, the author Mrs. Adaokere Agbasimalo a UN eminent peace ambassador, who is also a recipient of the extraordinary woman (unsung) award by Genevieve Magazine, and the merit award of excellence and integrity by the Nigeria Association of Women Journalists, Enugu chapter; had in Abuja and Lagos canvassed for peace during this forthcoming elections and beyond so as not to repeat what she witnessed firsthand over four decades ago, when Nigeria erupted in a civil war. 

She took her campaign to media houses in Lagos and Abuja encouraging fellow Nigerians to join in beating the drums of PEACE not war.

 The presentation held in Abuja and was graced by notable Nigerian men, women and youths. It was a memorable occasion as it became an issue-based book presentation and not just a banal book launch. Stopping the drumbeats of war and embracing peace became the issue and theme, especially as general elections were around the corner. Victor Emeana, the book reviewer made a world class review of the book. The former governor of Anambra state, his excellency, the former governor of Anambra State, Chukwuemeka Ezeife (Okwadike), former health minister Dr. Tim Menakaya, PPRO ACP Emmanuel Ojukwu, Engineer Emmanuel Agbasimalo and others, all lent a voice to PEACE in Nigeria. The author said "From whichever angle you view it, war portends evil and must not be allowed!" As the highpoint of event, participants all signed in solidarity, a giant Peace Card on which is crafted the following: NIGERIANS SIGN UP FOR PEACE! 

This card is expected to be taken to the relevant authorities to express Nigerians' goodwill and commitment towards peace.  The book presentation ended and the author, having also been internally displaced during the Biafran war, proceeded to one of the Internally Displaced Persons (IDP) camps in Abuja to do the needful.




"THE FOREST DAMES" is an antique but unlike antiques which are rare to find, it is available at Silverbird galleria bookshop and Booksellers bookshop, City Plaza, opposite Biobak eatery Garki, in Abuja while in Lagos, the books are available in Unilag bookshop, Glendora bookshop at Shoprite Ikeja, Quintessence bookshop at Park View estate in Ikoyi and Laterna bookshop in Victoria Island. It is also available at konga.com, amazon.com, Barnes and nobles. Interested bookstores may call this number 08033486984 please.

About Chris Brown stepping out on her with Rihanna, Karrueche said;
"I didn't want to believe it. I was under the impression that it was a friend-type of... not a friend, but it wasn't what it became to be."
How she found out? She said it was on Christmas Day 2012 when she was staying at his LA condo and he told her he was going out, only for her to see pics of him with Rihanna at a Lakers basketball game on social media. 'I knew. I didn't want to believe it, I loved him." 

She cried a lot in the interview. Watch the clips after the cut. But before then let me throw a question out there. If Chris wasn't a superstar singer, would Karrueche have tolerated all the things she did?
 

Iyanla gets Chris Brown's ex, Karrueche to discuss her feelings about Chris Brown's betrayal. Karrueche Tran tells Iyanla Vanzant what she saw in Chris Brown and why she stayed with him for so many years. Plus, Iyanla identifies the classic relationship mistake Karrueche made.

'I'm planning a heinous act that will be remembered forever': Killer pilot's ex-lover claims he said before crash

Posted: 28 Mar 2015 05:00 AM PDT

A former girlfriend of killer pilot Andreas Lubitz claimed the pilot told her once that he's planning an act so heinous his name would be remembered for ever. The girlfriend said Lubitz was a tormented, erratic man who was a master of hiding his darkest thoughts and would wake up from nightmares screaming 'we're going down'.

The 26-year-old Germanwings stewardess, known only as Maria W, revealed to a German newspaper how Lubitz ominously told her last year: 'One day I will do something that will change the whole system, and then all will know my name and remember it.' Continue...
When she heard about the crash of Germanwings Flight 4U9525 on Tuesday, she remembered Lubitz's menacing prophecy. 'I never knew what he meant, but now it makes sense,' she told Bild.

Maria told the newspaper that she met Lubitz when the pair flew together across Europe and said they dated for five months last year, spending 'several nights' in hotels.

She said he was a 'nice and open-minded' man but claimed there was a difference between his professional and his private ego, with him being 'soft' and needing love when the couple were alone but becoming 'someone else' when they talked about work. 

She added to Bild: 'We spoke a lot about work and then he became another person. He became agitated about the circumstances in which he had to work, too little money, anxiety about his contract and too much pressure.'

His personal problems and erratic behaviour became so severe that the flight attendant decided to call the relationship off after fearing his increasingly volatile temper.
'During conversations he'd suddenly throw a tantrum and scream at me,' she said. 'I was afraid. He even once locked me in the bathroom for a long time.' 

Despite parting from Lubitz, Maria said previous conversations with him suddenly 'made sense' when she heard about the crash.
She said: 'When I heard about the crash, there was just a tape playing in my head of what he said, "One day I will do something that will change the system and everyone will then know my name and remember me".
'I did not know what he meant by that at the time, but now it's clear.'

She said he had 'never really' spoken to her about any illness but had told her he was getting psychiatric treatment.

She added: 'The torn up sick notes make sense now to me and were a clear sign that he did not want to admit that his big dream of flying as a captain was over.' 

Police will want to interview the air stewardess in detail about the pilot's state of mind, as well as his most recent girlfriend who he is said to have lived with in a smart flat on the outskirts of Dusseldorf. One report claimed they had been together on and off for seven years and were engaged and planned to marry next year.

Lubitz had reportedly ordered two new Audis for them just before the tragedy in an apparent desperate last attempt to win her back. But she appeared to have rejected his offer, as only one car was ever delivered.

It comes amid claims that their relationship broke down because he was secretly gay and was suffering torment over hiding his homosexuality. One report claimed he was taunted by fellow pilots for previously being a 'trolley dolly' airline steward and dubbed 'Tomato Andy' - a derogatory gay slur - by colleagues.

The startling revelations that Lubitz had long-plotted a spectacular act adds weight to claims the pilot concealed a medical condition that should have stopped him flying.

It comes after German investigators yesterday revealed the 28-year-old should have been off sick on the day he deliberately condemned his 149 passengers and crewmates to their deaths in the Alps.

Investigators revealed today that medical sign-off notes were found at Lubitz's home - including at least one that covered the day of the crash - and Dusseldorf University Hospital confirmed he had been a patient there over the past two months, although it would not disclose his condition.
