• ●PETER OBI BANNS FROM EDO STATE●

    THE GOVERNOR OF EDO STATE MONDAY OKPEBHOLO BANNING PETER OBI FROM ENTERING EDO STATE WITH OUT HIS APPROVAL AND THAT HIS SECURITY IS NOT GUARANTEED, IS A JOKE TAKEN TOO FAR.

    Most of these APC Governors are highly irresponsible. Instead of them to concentrate on delivering democratic dividends to the people, they are busy running after a man who doesn't care about them.

    The other day it was Benue State Governor, Rev. Fr. Hyacinth Lormem Alia who left securing his people to ban Peter Obi from entering Benue State, it was not long 200 persons were massacred by Fuluni Herdersmen. It's a pity!!!

    Now is Governor of Edo State, Monday Okpebholo who can not pronounce #15m, he pronounced it #1.5m banning Peter Obi from entering Edo State without his approval. It's a shame.

    Mr Monday Okpebholo if anything happens to Peter Obi going forward you will be held responsible. Peter Obi is not your mate by all standard. Go and learn your Mathematical figures and leave a man of grace alone, he is not contesting to be come Governor of Edo State rather he wants to be President of Nigeria.

    How will you feel if Peter Obi wins in 2027 and bans you from entering Nigeria? Please be careful. Stop looking for recongnition by saying what you can not do. If anything happens to Peter Obi in your State then you will see how prepared we are in this struggle. Enough is Enough!!!

    God is our helper.
    A new Nigeria is POssible!!!

  • FORMER Governor Samuel Ortom of Benue State, yesterday, explained why he and other members of the G5 Governors’ Forum opposed the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, and its presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, in the 2023 elections.

    But in a push back, the former Vice President, described them as frustrated opportunists, who are searching for relevance.

    Also, the PDP similarly, accused Ortom of acting out of personal interest rather than genuine concern for fairness and equity in the 2023 elections.

    This came as a former Presidential aspirant, Mr Dele Momodu formally resigned from the PDP, citing what he described as the hijacking of the party by antidemocratic forces.

    Ortom, a leading member of the G5 group of PDP governors, said the party’s failure to respect equity, fairness, and justice was the reason they chose to stand against it.

    Ortom said the G5 had insisted that the presidency should shift to the South after eight years of Northern rule under President Muhammadu Buhari, but the PDP’s decision to field Atiku, also a Northerner, went against that principle.

    “I acted as I did because we had expected the PDP to uphold equity, fairness, and justice, values I hold dear.

    “When the majority of PDP members supported a Northern candidate, we deemed it unjust. We’ve always stood for equity, fairness, and justice, and we felt the presidency should alternate between the North and South for eight years each,” he said.

    As chairman of the PDP’s zoning committee, Ortom noted that although the committee recommended an open contest, he personally pushed for a Southern candidate.

    As chairman of the PDP’s zoning committee, Ortom noted that although the committee recommended an open contest, he personally pushed for a Southern candidate.

    On the role of Nyesom Wike, now Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, in the crisis, Ortom revealed, “We fought for Wike to be the PDP’s presidential candidate, but unfortunately, he didn’t secure the nomination. We also believed he should have been the running mate. I was part of the 20-member committee tasked with selecting a running mate, and 16 of us supported Wike. However, the candidate and the party leadership decided otherwise.”

    Ortom defended supporting opposition candidates in 2023, saying politics was based on interests. “Politics revolves around interests. There’s no permanent enemy or friend in politics. It’s about protecting the interests of your community, your people, and yourself,” he stated.

    He also addressed criticism that he and Wike tried to “destroy” the PDP by supporting opposition candidates. Ortom compared their strategy to that of other PDP members who backed Peter Obi of the Labour Party or Bola Tinubu of the APC.

    “Peter Obi wasn’t in the PDP, but we agreed on a strategic partnership to demonstrate our influence. Some of us supported Peter Obi, others supported Tinubu, and we ended up with the current government. If God has given us President Bola Tinubu, why shouldn’t we support him?” Ortom added.

    Looking to the 2027 elections, Ortom reaffirmed his support for a Southern presidential candidate and stressed the importance of respecting power rotation.

    “My position is clear. I will support a Southern candidate. I see no reason to support a Northern candidate in 2027. By 2031, if someone from the South expresses interest in the presidency, I will still advocate for it to shift to the North. That’s based on my belief in equity and fairness.”

    Ortom on criticism over alleged bias in Benue State politics, where he is accused of favouring the Tiv ethnic group, said: “I’ve fought for fairness and have advised other ethnic groups on what they need to do. I agree it’s unfair for one group to dominate the governorship since the creation of Benue State. However, politics also involves the majority. The Tiv people occupy Zones A and B, while the Idoma and Igede are in Zone C. It’s a matter of political dynamics, and I’ve encouraged other groups to organise and assert themselves.”

  • NTA Jos is the first TV station in Africa to broadcast programs in color.

    Nigeria's television history began on October 31, 1959, with the launch of Western Nigerian Television (WNTV), the first TV station in Nigeria and Africa, south of the Sahara. This pioneering station was followed by Eastern Nigerian Television (ENTV) in 1960, Radio Television Kaduna (RTK) in 1962, and MidWest TV in 1972.

    Two years later, on July 15, 1974, Benue-Plateau Television (BPTV) was launched, which would later become NTA Jos. This station made history on October 1, 1975, by becoming the first in West Africa to broadcast programs in color. In 1977, BPTV merged with the Nigerian Television Authority (NTA). Later, in February 2008, NTA Jos was upgraded to a Zonal Network Centre.

  • BUHARI: WHO DID THIS TO US?

    Where is the conscience in the hearts of our elite who eulogize the late former President Mohammadu Buhari?

    Sowore and some few patriotic and reasonable Nigerians are the only ones who are taking us down the memory lane of how Buhari soaked his hands with the bløød of innocent Nigerians and destroyed the very fabric of our security, economic and national cohesion.

    Why the pretence and vain attempts by pretenders and lîàrs to try to make a tyrant a great man in dèàth?

    Nigerians are not stupiiid. When former President Umaru Musa Ya'rdua díèd, Nigerians mourned and eulogized him for his love and compassion for Nigeria and Nigerians.

    Buhari's former spokesman, Shehu Garuba has expressed his displeasure over how Nigerians have thrown caution to the wind and hît hard on Buhari even in dèàth. Let Nigerians reminisce Buhari's high-handedness. Please, Garuba let Nigerians vent their angèr in peace! You don't bèàt up a child and take away his right to cry and sob.

    DEAR NIGERIANS....

    Have you all forgotten so soon how innocent Nigerians including NYSC corps members were slaughtered in the North just because Buhari lost presidential elections in 2003, 2007 and 2011? Buhari used religion to conscientize and weaponize the ignorant youths of the North. They were at his beck and call to commit the unthinkable.

    Have you all also forgotten his ignoble statement that "monkeys and baboons will be soaked in bløød if he lost the 2015 presidential election?

    Who ordered the killing of innocent ENDSARS protesters in Lagos?

    Even though President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has his annoying shortcomings, Buhari literally paved the way for Nigerians to see Tinubu as their eñemy owing to the security and economic mess he left behind.

    Here was a man who valued cows more than the citizens of this country.

    Here was a man who gave bloodtasty Fulani Herdsmen from neighbouring countries unhindered assess into the country, to slaughter farmers and make kidnappings a daily occurrence in all nooks and crannies of our dear nation through his body language. Did Buhari ever criticize the activities of the kîllèr herdsmen? NO!

    Buhari's crimes against humanity are innumerable!

    Yet some say he had integrity! Integrity? A man with integrity will not allow bløødbath under his watch as a leader!

    We all have our individual shortcomings but some shortcomings are preposterous! It's understandable that humans don't have power over who is going to heaven or hèll, but I know for sure that the voice of men is the voice of God.

    In the mind of minds of those who eulogize Buhari, they know that Buhari never meant well for this country. Buhari just wanted to prove some points after his military administration was toppled by IBB. Which was why he kept contesting for president in every election circle until he capitalized on former President Jonathan's meekness or call it weakness and grabbed power that he had longed for in 2015.
    -------------------------------------

    THE BLØØD OF THE KÎLLLÈD INNOCENT NIGERIANS WILL HAUNT AND HUNT...

    Those who kîlllèd them and those who mourn and eulogize Buhari but fail to speak against their killlings and mourn them too. At least, all lives matter!

    May the souls of innocent Nigerians killled in far away Benue State, Plateau State and other parts of the country by the eñemïes of the nations state called Nigeria rest in the bosom of the Lord, amen.

  • APC GOVERNORS URGE FG TO EXPAND INVESTMENTS IN KEY ECONOMIC SECTORS

    — Reaffirm support for President Tinubu

    - Governors of the All Progressives Congress (APC), under the aegis of the Progressives Governors Forum (PGF), have called on the Federal Government to intensify ongoing economic recovery efforts by expanding investments in key sectors of the economy.

    - This call was made on Saturday, June 28, 2025, at the conclusion of the Forum’s first regional meeting held in Benin City, Edo State. The meeting also featured the formal welcome of Akwa Ibom State Governor, Pastor Umo Eno, to the Forum.

    - The governors emphasized the need to further democratize the gains of current economic growth through strategic investments in food security, job creation, poverty alleviation, MSME development, and social safety nets.

    - Chairman of the Forum and Governor of Imo State, Senator Hope Uzodinma, who read the communiqué on behalf of his colleagues, welcomed the increase in fiscal transfers to states and the growing investor confidence in Nigeria’s economic outlook. He pledged that the Forum would sustain this momentum by delivering infrastructure that enhances productivity and drives inter-state competitiveness.

    - The Forum also commended Nigeria’s security agencies for their continued efforts in tackling criminality and safeguarding national sovereignty. It extended condolences to families affected by insecurity, especially in Benue and Niger States.

    - Reaffirming its support for President Tinubu’s national security agenda, particularly the recent intervention in Benue State, the PGF also endorsed enhanced inter-agency coordination, community policing, and grassroots intelligence systems. It further called for increased investment in surveillance infrastructure and improved welfare for frontline security personnel.

    - The governors affirmed that the APC remains the most institutionally coherent political platform in the country, with a proven track record of reforms, electoral victories, and national unity.

    - The Forum also acknowledged the recent resignation of the APC National Chairman, H.E. Dr. Abdullahi Umar Ganduje, describing it as part of the party’s ongoing evolution and internal democratic maturity.

    - Reiterating their commitment to a united, just, and prosperous Nigeria, the PGF pledged to continue working collaboratively to implement bold reforms, strengthen institutional trust, and accelerate socio-economic development across all geopolitical zones.

    - The governors resolved to remain faithful stewards of the party’s values, leveraging innovation and sub-national collaboration to transform Nigeria from the bottom up.

    - They called on Nigerians at home and abroad to unite behind President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and the APC as the country charts a path toward a more secure, inclusive, and forward-looking future.

    - The two-day meeting concluded with a courtesy visit to the Oba of Benin, His Royal Majesty, Oba Ewuare II, who urged the governors to serve as instruments of development and champions of national growth. It also featured a town hall meeting attended by key APC stakeholders from across the country.
