Sincerely, love alone can't make a marriage work these days, not with the many rough girls on the loose and very ready to give your husband much more of what you should be giving him at home.

A marriage that will last today must have Love, Respect, Character and the God factor. Never do things with your own knowledge and understanding. Seek help and support of men who are closer to God.

This is important because a fallen man must cheat on his wife and a fallen woman will find it very hard to be submissive to her husband; if a man is cheating and a woman is not submissive, it must crash!

OluFamous.Com thought we should use this medium to encourage you all to get it right in marriage and that is by making sure God is giving a priority. Love is a beautiful thing but it can't stand alone. That's what happened to this lovely couple, Actor Adeniyi Johnson and Actress Toyin Aimakhu...

Their marriage is in serious distress about a month to their 2nd wedding anniversary. I was told that Toyin had caught her husband cheating with ladies several times, he also had complained of her not being a submissive wife but painting a picture that all is well outside while denying him his 'rights' at home.

Long story short; they didn't involve God, they thought that they could handle it alone. God help us all!

Retired senior military officers have warned against the postponement of the February general elections to avoid military takeover of the democratic administration of the country.

They warned that the "planned" postponement might lead to anarchy in the country, which, according to them, may lead to military intervention.

A former Director of Procurement in the Defence Headquarters, Brigadier-General Ayodele Ojo (retd.), in an interview with PUNCH, described the recent call made by the National Security Adviser, Col. Sambo Dasuki, for the general elections to be postponed as a step towards military rule.

He warned that the suggestion by the NSA for deferment of the polls is capable of creating a constitutional crisis that can abort the nation’s democracy.

On Thursday, Dasuki stated that the postponement of next month’s elections would give INEC more time to distribute over 30 million outstanding Permanent Voter Cards to registered voters.

The NSA said rescheduling the elections would cost INEC and the Federal Government nothing, adding that, “It’s still within the law.”

However, Ojo said INEC and the Federal Government should not entertain such a suggestion.

He said, “It is a backward step to the dark days of military rule when anti-democratic forces, on the eve of the June 12, 1993 presidential poll, were able to secure a dubious injunction from an Abuja High Court restricting the National Electoral Commission from conducting the election.

“This singular act was instrumental to the annulment of the election. It is worrisome that the call, this time around, is coming from a highly placed security official of the Nigerian government. Moreover, the reason given for the postponement is untenable, to say the least.”

The former director at the DHQ added that if the call for a postponement was based on allowing would-be voters to collect their PVCs, the Federal Government could consider declaring a public holiday.

Ojo added, “What I think is required is for the Federal Government to declare Friday, February 6, 2015 as a work-free day to enable affected voters the last opportunity to collect their PVCs.

“INEC could also use that weekend before the presidential election as a dress rehearsal. This will require INEC to deploy its entire staff on that Friday and Saturday for the voters to collect their PVCs from the polling units, where they are expected to vote the following Saturday of the presidential election.

“This, I believe, will take care of this problem without resort to postponing the election, thereby creating unnecessary and avoidable crises. This suggestion by the NSA is uncalled for and must be resisted by all Nigerians in order to avoid plunging the country into self-inflicted crisis.”

Bose Oladimeji is beginning to get attention in the Yoruba film industry, for both her talent and good looks. But Bose, from Kwara State and an English graduate of Tai Solarin University of Education, is burning with desire to do things most of her colleagues wouldn’t dare.

Already, she looks good for it, as she has been nominated in the MAYA awards, along five others as the ‘New Bride’ of Nollywood. If you're a poor man, find your level. Check out what makes her tick:

Why did you pick acting as a career?
I have always wanted to be an actress all my life. The passion began to grow as a child, back then when we used to play the moonlight play, where we imitated our parents and everything we saw on the television. Also, my love for literature helped to add fire to the passion. As an English student, literature is a part of the study, so, in a way, you can say I am still on my field as a professional.

Sensual roles are coming into Yoruba films now, how sensual can you get in a film?

I apply wisdom to everything I do because I always think of that day a man will ask for my hand in marriage. I don’t want anything that will soil it to come in, so, I check myself and go as far as it would suit the script and comes off as good acting.

So you can’t even kiss, smooch or pretend to make love on set?
Why not? I have done many like that but what I am saying is that I do it with restraint and make sure the act doesn’t go beyond the set. Work is work and I don’t mix feelings with business.

Can’t you date or go out with a fellow actor?
Never; I will never do that. Not that I have anything against actors but I just can’t do it.

Why are the actors so bad or so poor?
No, not that. I just don’t mix business with pleasure.

Which film do you think brought out the best in you and why?
Hmm, I would have to say Adajo Aiye but Aye Mi brought more ovation than Adajo Aiye. It brought back all the memories of my school days. Aye Mi is a true life story that brought out the best in me because I had to bring back from memory most of what happened during my school days. Besides, many parents called to appreciate my effort.

How do you see your nomination by MAYA Awards as the New Bride of Nollywood?
Yes, it is under the category of Nollywood’s new bride (next rated female). New bride means ‘Iyawo Tuntun’ in Yoruba language and translate as the new face of Nollywood. I believe I caught the attention of the organisers of the award because of my works. I believe there must be something unique about my personality and my works to have been noticed and nominated.

What kind of men would you date or settle down with?
Wow, he must be cool, handsome, lovely, God-fearing, humble, rich and romantic. Those are the qualities I look out for in my man.

So you can’t marry a poor man?
Yes I can’t, truth is bitter; a man must be hardworking. If you are not hardworking, how are we going to give our children quality education? Providing for their needs? So my desired man must have something lucrative doing because I cannot be idle myself. I don’t believe in being a full time housewife. We must work together and achieve our collective goals. Poor men have no place in my heart.

What if you meet a rich man and he wants you to stop acting entirely?
No, capital no. Acting is a passion that can never be quenched. The man may limit the frequency of my going on locations but can never stop it entirely

You read English, why haven’t you done any English film?
Everything takes time. Little by little I will get there. Mind you, if I am invited I would participate. Very soon I will shoot my own English film.

Ahead of the January 28, 2015 planned Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) presidential rally in Port Harcourt, heavily fierce looking armed soldiers and policemen on Saturday took over the 40,000 capacity Adokiye Amiesimaka Stadium at Igwuruta-ali, Ikwerre local government area of the state.

It was gathered that the soldiers had moved into the facility early on Saturday morning and kept vigil till dawn.

The APC-led Rivers State government and the state PDP have been engaged in war of words over the planned use of the stadium by the opposition PDP in the state.

“Our (PDP) presidential rally will hold at that stadium because it belongs to the people. It was built by tax payers’ money. We are working with all stakeholders to ensure that the right thing is done to move the nation forward."

It would be recalled that the state chairman of the PDP, Felix Obuah, had said that the state government turned down the request of the party to use the facility for its presidential candidate, President Goodluck Jonathan on Wednesday, January 28.

Speaking on the issue, governorship candidate of the PDP, Nyesom Wike, at a meeting with the Goodluck-to-Goodluck Political pressure group in Port Harcourt, recently, assured that the APC used the same facility for theirs and therefore, the PDP will host President Jonathan there.

The APC had used the facility to flag-off the party’s presidential campaign for the South-south earlier this month, even as it was used late last year to celebrate the anniversary of the Supreme Court judgment.

Wike said: “The PDP presidential rally will hold at the Amiesimaka Stadium on Wednesday, January 28. The APC held their own presidential campaign rally on January 6, 2015 and an earlier rally on October 25, 2014 in the same stadium.

“We are committed to the peaceful use of the stadium for our presidential campaigns,” the state PDP governorship standard bearer said.

But the state governor, Rt. Hon. Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi, at a rally for the All Progressives Congress (APC) governorship candidate in Etche local government of the state explained that the PDP cannot use the stadium, saying it was undergoing more construction work.

The Presidency has decided to use the stadium by force, hence the deployment of soldiers to the place.

Niger Delta militants have threatened to take up arms again if President Goodluck Jonathan failed to win in the coming February 14 presidential election.

The former militants spoke when they met with the Bayelsa State Governor Seriake Dickson on Friday. They said Jonathan’s re-election is not negotiable; Nigerians must vote for Jonathan or face war.

“One thing I can assure you is that though I am retired, I am not tired. We can go back to the struggle. We own the resources and they are saying we do not have the right to rule. I will assure you that we must collect our oil back. If they take back power from us, we will take back our oil. Let us fight this last fight and I tell you the Devil is a liar.”

Addressing the audience, a leader of the militant, popularly known as Boyloaf boasted that nobody or group of persons had the monopoly of violence, saying the only thing binding Nigeria’s unity is Niger Delta.

He believed that President Jonathan would win the February 14 election, but however noted that if the North out of desperation for power took power from their kinsman, the people of the Niger Delta would take their oil back.

The ex-warlord said, “We are Nigerians but not one Nigeria; what brings us together is oil. The North wants to use insecurity excuse to push out our own."

On his part, another militant leader, Mujahid Dokubo-Asari lamented the alleged intimidation being meted out to the people of Ijaw stock in Nigeria, saying the people could not take it anymore.

He said, “For every Goliath, God created a David. For every Pharoah, there is a Moses. We are going to war. Everyone of you should go and fortify yourself," he said.

Since the militants have declared war if their brother is defeated, There has been noticeable panic among residents of the Hausa Community in Bayelsa with mass exodus of northern indigenes from the state.

The leader of the Hausa Community in Bayelsa State, Alhaji Dahiru Yau Katsina, while speaking with in Yenagoa, said though they have appealed for calm among Hausa indigenes, the mass exodus is worrisome.

Alhaji Dahiru Yau Katsine, said the Hausa Community in the State had met with authorities of the Security agencies and have been assured of adequate security of lives and property during and after the elections. He said they were also cautioned against traveling which might result in accidents and loss of their properties.

He wondered why people could still embark on these mass exit when they have been living with their host communities in harmony and peace, stressing that he called the managers of most of the Northern states transport companies over the development, but they said they were performing their duties of transportation.

Alhaji Yau who has been in Bayelsa State before its creation, averred that the Hausa community has resolved to mobilise to vote massively for the candidates of their choice devoid of ethnic or tribal sentiments in the forthcoming election, saying that whether Muslim or Christian what Nigerians want are leaders who would address the problems of the masses such as unemployment, insecurity and infrastructures so that Nigerians can live happily in any part of the country.

Just a day after the visit of President Goodluck Jonathan, members of the dreaded Boko Haram sect thought that the security forces would have relaxed, hence they launched two simultaneous deadly attacks on Monguno and Maiduguri towns in the early hours of Sunday.

The good news is, Nigeria military say they are equal to the task and have been repelling the insurgents with well coordinated ground and air strikes. The military say they are sure of victory this time.

The Divisional Police Officer of the Ogudu Police Division, Lagos State, Mrs Chioma Ajunwa, on Monday attacked vendors selling PUNCH and other Newspapers in the Ogudu-Ojota area of Lagos State.

It was learnt that Ajunwa confiscated the newspapers and ordered that the men stop displaying them. The DPO, who is an Olympic Gold medalist, was reacting to an earlier report by PUNCH on the seizure of some newspapers last week and the demand for a N5,000 bail (bribe) for the vendor arrested.

It would be recalled that PUNCH had reported on Friday that Ajunwa seized newspapers displayed at one of the junctions on the Ogudu-Ojota Road.

She was also reported to have arrested one of the vendors, Idongesit Obot, who slept behind the counter till the following day.

The sum of N5,000 was allegedly demanded for Obot’s bail, but N1,500 was said to have been paid after much persuasion with the Investigating Police Officer.

A vendor, Aniekan Jackson, said DPO Ajunwa was angry at the report and swooped on the vendors in the area on Monday. He said, “She came very early this morning (Monday), seizing our newspapers. She also chased all the vendors at the Ojota bus stop. She said she does not want to see anybody here again, adding that we should report again to The PUNCH so that they can write about her again.

“What do we do now? She said we should rent shops. Are we going to stop selling The PUNCH because of her? Or are we going to rent shops for newspaper business?”

The Police PRO, Kenneth Nwosu, had claimed that the DPO’s action was informed by the gridlock usually caused by readers who crowded newspaper stands every morning. He had said Ajunwa raided the area after several warnings did not yield any result.

But a newspaper agent in Ojota, Arnold Adekunle, faulted the police position, saying if the DPO really wanted to sanitise the area, she was supposed to work with the local government authorities.

Adekunle said, “The police said there had been accident on the road because of newspaper stands, how many accidents have they recorded on the road? She is just making up things. She wants to assume the position of the local government’s boss.”

Another vendor, who identified himself simply as Suleiman, added that the DPO had sworn never to allow them sell newspapers in the area.

“She said she does not want to see us again because we told you (PUNCH) that the police demanded N5,000 from us. She said we should meet PUNCH to do more stories on her.

“There is no other place where we can sell papers, except by the roadside. We have been selling newspapers there for the past 10 years, and there has never been any accident.”

Written by Barrister Festus Keyamo
"Do not forget that I am from the Niger-Delta region and all my close friends and associates are the main supporters and aides of Mr. President. Two or three Governors who are either my former classmates or colleagues are the main backers of Mr. President. It is so easy, so convenient and so seemingly logical for me to get into that political mix and forget about the good of my country for personal gains.

The disgusting message we hear all over the streets of that region every day at this time - promoted by the hirelings of the President – is that Goodluck Jonathan is “our son”, so we have no choice but to support him. In fact, I see some of my “brothers” from the Niger Delta region these days strutting all over the place, denigrating people from other regions. It is typical of what the Yorubas call “omo oju ori ola ri” (a person whose eyes have not seen wealth before).

But the question I ask those who tell me such nonsense and behave in such a manner is that:
after the next four years, what is next for us? Is our entire future and that of our children dependent on a South-South President for the next four years?

Kindly note that in getting down from the fence and speaking up at this critical time, I do not mind if you speak up for Goodluck Jonathan. Yes, you have a right to do so as a Nigerian. But, as an elite, your stand must be known so that when the massacres continue because of cluelessness, when the unrestrained stealing of our public resources continue, when darkness continues to befall the nation because of lack of power, it is important we all remember those who betrayed their conscience and the people because of ethnicity and self-aggrandisement and for posterity to record it as such.

We have a President who has no single appetite to fight corruption – yes, none. Imagine a campaign that is dominated by the theme of corruption, yet the President has decided to appoint a person facing trial for money-laundering as his Director of Media and Publicity. If nobody would say it, I will say it because I am the one prosecuting the fellow in court and the case has been adjourned to February 23 and 24 for trial. Part of the lies told is that the fellow has been freed whereas some of the counts in the Charge were just struck out and the court held that he has a case to answer on some other counts. Yet nobody is asking the President these hard questions."

"The clear alternative to this monumental mess is the person of General Muhammadu Buhari. Let us be clear that Buhari does not present the total package Nigerians want at this time. He is human, he is not perfect. But at this point in our history, at this time, at this moment, he presents the only viable option and avenue for the people to vent their frustrations and anger against an inept and clueless Federal Government. He represents the rallying point for the frustrated and teeming masses of our people. He reminds me of MKO Abiola (with some of his imperfections) who became the rallying point in the struggle against military rule.

That is the change we are talking about. It is not a change from imperfection to perfection. It is a change from hopelessness and cluelessness to some hope and to some expectations."

Getting married on disrespect without God's help is the order of the day. You may love someone, but if they are not seeing the reason to respect you or their family has not taught them to respect their elders then that is not the right marriage for you because you can't even that person, no matter how you try.

Below is what actress Georgina Onuoha said of her marriage to Dr. Ifeanyi Igwegbe that crashed:

“It has taken almost four years to do this; it’s taken a lot of soul searching, prayers and counseling to get to this juncture. It’s not a breaking news that my almost a decade relationship is over.

While I do this with highest respect for my kids, family, friends, I also do owe you my fans my sincere gratitude for your support and prayers. A lot has been put out there on the internet about my marriage. I crave your indulgence to please pray for my family. 

There are no victors or vanquish(ed). I still have tremendous respect for the father of my kids and I ask same from you all. He is a good man and a great father, the fact that this marriage did not work is our failures as two adults. I take full responsibility for the part I played in it.

While marriage ends, true friendship never dies. We remain good friends and great parents to our two lovely daughters. We will do our best to give them the best life has to offer. Once again, thanks for all your love and support through the years.

- Sincerely yours, Georgina Onuoha.

Ruffled by the momentum generated by the nomination of Pastor Yemi Osinbajo as Mohamadu Buhari's running mate, President Goodluck Jonathan is asking a group of Pentecostal pastors to help him avert what he fears could be an impending defeat in the February 14 presidential election.

Osinbajo, a prominent Pastor with the Redeemed Christian Church of God, professor of Law and a SAN, emerged the APC's presidential running mate last month giving President Jonathan and the PDP what is being described as sleepless nights, by inside sources.

Specifically last Thursday, the President held a meeting in Abuja, with some top Pentecostal pastors led by Bishop David Oyedepo of Winners Chapel, with the main agenda being how to fashion out ways to solve the Osinbajo problem.

Sources at the meeting confirmed that President Jonathan confessed in a rather rattled and humbling manner that "Osinbajo is my problem." Those at the meeting said Jonathan cried out that "everything was okay until APC picked Osinbajo."

Pastor Osinbajo reaching out to poor Nigerians on the streets.

While PDP chieftains and supporters are struggling to characterize APC as an Islamist party, APC leaders have consistently dismissed such as unfounded, baseless and a scare tactic by the PDP.

Many observers say the nomination of a prominent Pentecostal pastor from the fastest growing church in Africa (RCCG) by the APC may have effectively doused such speculations and the attempt to label the party as one with an islamization agenda.

At the meeting organized by the Executive Secretary of National Christian Pilgrims Commission, John Kennedy Okpara, Jonathan poured out his mind that running against a leading Pastor of Redeemed Church, who is known to be very close to the much respected Pastor E.A. Adeboye, is an uphill task.

Sources at the meeting, said Jonathan was ruffled and much distracted as he confessed to the challenge to him, of the APC naming such a person as Osinbajo as General Buhari's running mate.

In response, the Pastors led by Bishop Oyedepo assured Jonathan that they would, "starting from today," use every device possible including social media, the pulpit and influence peddling, to campaign in support of President Jonathan and against the Buhari-Osinbajo ticket.

Before the meeting with the President, sources said the pastors held a meeting on the same day to strategize and agree on how and what they would present to the president.

At that pre-meeting, some Pentecostal pastors suggested that they use the opportunity of the meeting afforded by the President to express their genuine fears on growing insecurity in the North with Boko Haram killing and attacking Christians and other innocent Nigerians.

But Bishop David Oyedepo, the most influential pastor at the meeting interrupted the idea, insisting that the meeting was to encourage and strengthen President Jonathan ahead of the elections and not to discuss compelling national issues of concern to majority of Nigerians.

While some of the pastors were shocked and disappointed that Bishop Oyedepo would not allow them raise important issues bothering Nigerians, they decided to keep silent not to be seen as spoilsports.

“Anytime Buhari contests, they dredge up false accusations of sectionalism in PTF” 

– Publisher and columnist, Waziri Adio sets the records straight 
Respected publisher and ThisDay columnist, Waziri Adio on 26 December felt compelled to speak up and clear the air on false accusations that Muhammadu Buhari, presidential candidate of the APC was ‘sectional’ in the widely-acclaimed impact of the Petroleum Trust Fund (PTF).

It is yet another fact-based counter to the erroneous caricature of the detribalised Buhari by prominent Nigerians from across the country.

In a series of 35 tweets, he made it clear that “the South got 70% in terms of amount located, and the North got 30%”.

The tweets are very enlightening. See them below:

1. I will start tweeting about the Petroleum Special Trust Fund (PTF) headed @ThisIsBuhari between May '95 and May '99.

2. There have been allegations that the PTF projects were lopsided in favour of the north, aimed at portraying @ThisIsBuhari as sectional.

3. There have also been allegations of fraud in PTF, meant to show that @ThisIsBuhari not as clean as portrayed.

4. I will provide some background on PTF and present some facts based on public documents and leave you to draw your conclusions.

5. PTF was set up by Gen Abacha in May '95, headed by @ThisIsBuhari, with Chief Tayo Akpata as Secretary.

Other members representing different zones were Y. Gusau, A Talib, Rufus Giwa, Prof. Chimere Ikoku, Prof. JP Clark, D.B Zang.

7. PTF was charged with using portion of increase in fuel price to rehabilitate roads, schools, hospitals, water schemes n provide supplies

8. Despite charges of being a parallel govt, at no point was PTF budget more than 10% of total budget of the federation.

9. Widely circulated allegation of lopsided siting of PTF projects by Afenifere a bit exaggerated.

10. It is true that out of the 13,090km roads rehabilitated, 32% in the south and 68% in the north. But that's half the story.

11. In terms of km, 7.3% of d rehabilitated roads were in SE; 8.5% in SW;16.25 in SS; 21.1% in NW; 23.4% in NE; and 23.5% in NC.

12. But it is also true that the landmass varies among zones and same with degree of difficulty and cost.

13. A look at the cost of roads in different zones and the overall allocation to zones in all PTF projects show a different picture.

14. N77. 2b was committed to roads out of the total of N187b allocated to PTF till May 99.

15. Of the N77.2b to roads, SW got N 9.7 b; SE, N14.5b; SS, N30.5b. This means SW got 12.6% of road budget; SE, 18.8%; SS, 39.5%.

16. Of d N77.2b committed to roads, NE got N7.1b; NC, N7. 4b; NW, N7.9b, meaning NE got 9.2%, NC got 9.6% and NW 10.3%.

17. This shows that in terms of cost, the variation btw north and south reversed in favour of d south.

18. Under roads, the south got 70% in terms of amount allocated and the north got 30%.

19. It may sound counter intuitive, but it is also an established fact that road construction costs more in the south than in the north.

20. Those circulating facts about kilometers of roads possibly also have information about cost of the roads and total allocation.

21. Possibly, they selectively chose the data set that will help their argument that @ThisIsBuhari is sectional.

22. Also, of the total N187b allocated to PTF, the south got more than the north.

23. In the 6 areas under PTF, SE got N26.9b; SW, N28.8b; SS, N49b. Representing 15% for SE, 15.4% for SW, and 26.2% for SS.

24. That is a total of 56.7% for the south out of the entire budget of PTF.

25. Of d total PTF allocation, NC got N20bn; NE, N26b; and NW N34. 9b. Meaning 10.7% for NC; 13.9% for NE; and 18.7% for NW.

26. That's 43.3% for the North out of the total N187b allocation to PTF.

27. On allegations of fraud in PTF under @ThisIsBuhari, it is important to bear a few things in mind.

28. OBJ set up two interim mgt committees on PTF, before eventually asking PTF to be wounded up.

29. First committee was under Dr. Haroun Adamu. 2nd under Alh. Garba Mubi. Dr Adamu Maina - Waziri was asked to wind up PTF.

30. For two years, police and SSS interogated officials of Afri-Project Consortium, project consultant to PTF.

31. Up till today, no one charged or prosecuted. In fact two of d founders of Afri-Project Consortium later served in OBJ's govt.

32. Murtala Aliyu was minister of state for works, and Amina Mohammed served as SSA on the MDGs and is now an adviser to the UN Sec-Gen.

33. However, anytime @ThisIsBuhari is planning to contest some people dredge up allegations of sectionalism and fraud in PTF.

34. Sometimes it is claimed that no one prosecuted so as not to embarrass @ThisIsBuhari. But what does that say about those making d claims?

35/35. This is it for now on PTF and @ThisIsBuhari.

Primate Theophilus Oluwasaanu Olabayo, is the Pastor, Founder, Evangelical Church of Yahweh, located at Arowojobe Estate, Mende Village, Maryland, Lagos. In this no-holds-barred interview with Tribune's Adelowo Oladipo, he reveals his predictions for the New Year.

He predicts, among other things, that the 2015 presidential election may not hold and if the election holds at all, it may be stalemated. He also predicts that if elections hold, the PDP will win the governorship election in Lagos State while the APC will retain Rivers, Ogun and Oyo states. Primate Olabayo also called for prayers against political assassinations in the New Year. Excerpts:

As the New Year approaches, can you reveal what have been revealed to you particularly as the nation prepares for another general elections?

You see, in this country, many people do not want to hear the truth. To start with, God has revealed to me that there may not be elections next year because in 2015, we are going to witness one of the worst political assassinations in Nigeria. God further informed me that the South West geo-political zone should be very careful so that the region would not be thrown into another era of wild, wild west because I saw political assassinations everywhere. I also saw some people in masks who were killing people everywhere. Specifically, between now and January, the country will witness one of the worst eras of bloodshed in its history. And if at all there will be elections next year in Nigeria, the seat of the president is not vacant.

Can you tell us what you mean by saying that the seat of the president is not vacant?

God has revealed to me that if at all there is going to be presidential election, it will be inconclusive just like (the June 12,) that we had during the time of the late Chief MKO Abiola who flew the flag of the Social Democratic Party under the military administration of General Ibrahim Badamasi Babangida.

Primate Olabayo

What should we expect with regard to the issues of insecurity and explosions in the northern parts of the country?In the New Year, we will never see Boko Haram again but insurgency will come in another form. We should pray against religious and ethnic wars in this country. President Jonathan has surrounded himself with some sycophants who are just telling him lies. The sycophants have made former President Olusegun Obasanjo the president’s enemy, forgetting the fact that the president would not have been where he is today without the assistance and support of Obasanjo. President Jonathan should bear it in mind that these people that are destroying Obasanjo would destroy him one day. I think what should be done if he plans for peace in the remaining days left for him in office as the number one citizen is to work assiduously in the overall interest of all Nigerians so that the poverty level in the country can be reduced drastically. 

I do not know the type of economic policy he is implementing that things are getting worse on a daily basis among the general populace, yet they keep saying that the economy is improving. I have never seen a situation where the economy is improving, yet the standard of living of the citizens is deteriorating everyday. Everywhere you go in this country, cases of armed robbery, kidnapping and other criminal activities are on the increase. What I am seeing is not a military incursion into the body polity, but the poor will take on the rich, it is a revolution that I am seeing in no distance future.

Are these to suggest that the statement attributed to the United States of America that the country may disintegrate by 2015 may come to pass?No, the country will not disintegrate because specifically, the United States had earlier said that in 2015, there would be no Nigeria and ironically, some Nigerian politicians have been working towards it. By the special grace of God, Nigeria will not disintegrate but by the special grace of God, a man of destiny will take over the reins of governance and most corrupt people who have been parading themselves and masquerading as Nigerian leaders, if they are not dead, will be jailed. And those who have been celebrating that they have money and are wealthy at the expense of the poor masses will have to be very careful because God will soon intervene in the affairs of Nigeria.


Do you foresee APC defeating PDP in the forthcoming general election and forming the government at the centre, especially with the emergence of Muhammadu Buhari, as APC’s candidate?
Whether they call themselves APC or Codeine, they are all the same. I have told you that there may not be election next year and if there is going to be an election, God told me that they are going to rig the election and this will cause an upheaval and the results of the election will not be declared and if the result is declared, the winners of the election will not govern. But my advice to our politicians is that they should let the president go peacefully and retire to his village. Nigerians need to avoid these people who are leaving one party to the other and claiming to form a coalition with candidates who have no base in their towns and villages. 

These opportunists are the worst enemies of this country. We have to avoid them so that they do not plunge this country into chaos. Recently, the Borno State governor raised an alarm that about three quarter of the state has been taken over by Boko Haram, yet the military authorities say they are having the upper hand over the insurgents. Then it is either the governor or the military hierarchy is lying. We now have a situation, where if anybody wants to make money off Nigeria, just tell the president you can crush Boko Haram or you tell him Boko Haram will soon become history.

As a prophet, do you foresee an end to Boko Haram insugency in 2015?
In future, a man of destiny will take over power at the centre in this country and Boko Haram will be over. God will raise a leader for this country who will clear the mess. He will come in a way that nobody can explain. The souls of the innocent people who have been killed by evil people who we see as leaders in this country are standing together to form an army. When they will strike and take over Nigeria, only God can tell. They killed the bodies of the innocent and not their spirits. God is preparing some leaders who will rule this country, they will emerge in three to five years’ time and turn the country into a paradise on earth.

The international scene will be of interest to Nigerians as well. Anything of interest or surprise in 2015?Well, terrorism will take over the world and the economy of superpowers including the United States of America will suffer in the New Year. Crises in that country will render President Barack Obama unpopular. Economically, things will be bad in the entire world. I see disaster, blood everywhere. What has never happened before will start coming up as people will be killing their children and eating one another as a result of starvation.

Nigerians enter successive New Years with hope. What is the fate of the common man with the economic crisis in the country especially with the fall in prices of crude oil? The drop in the price of crude oil at the international market is because God just wants to teach us a lesson that Nigeria should not rely on crude oil again as a source of revenue. God will produce other things that are very strong even as crude oil to an extent that this economic crisis created by the drastic drop in the prices of crude oil will turn out to be a blessing and it will be well with Nigerians. Also, God will start raising good leaders and something good will start happening to us as a nation. Nigeria is presently facing economic hardship as a result of the fact that God wanted to tell our leaders and the citizens that we should not depend on crude oil exportation alone for the development of this country and we have made oil our god, that was why we could not use the oil revenue very well to our own advantage. That is why God is not happy with us as a people.

What is the situation likely to be in other African countries?
There is going to be some change of governments in some African countries in the New Year and Ghana is going to witness a lot of problems because the opposition will rise against the current government in that country. The sitting government will have a lot of problems economically and as a result, they will not find it easy. And between January and March 2015, there will be a lot of plane crashes everywhere. Hijacking of planes is going to be on the increase and after those crises, things will start getting better. There will be a lot of terror activities everywhere and mysterious things that had never happened before will start happening all over the world. People will just be missing anyhow, that is why people will turn to God.

And I see Jihad in Nigeria, I see people leaving the northern part of the country in droves for their homelands . As a result of this, ethnic problems should be avoided in Nigeria. It is either the Igbo facing the Hausa or the Yoruba. I just see them leaving the northern part of the country for their different places of origins and destinations. I saw anarchy in the land. But Nigeria will remain as one, there would have been seven years of war but God has decreed there would be no war in Nigeria again. God will intervene in the affairs of Nigeria and the military will be reorganised .

What can we do to avert the impending problems that you talked about?
That is why President Goodluck Jonathan must warn his kitchen cabinet, especially those in the inner circles in his government who are always spoiling for war against perceived enemies of the government and against past leaders of the country, to stop it so that there can be peace in the land.

The president should be seen to be fighting corruption headlong, otherwise corruption and insecurity will bring down his government. I foresee that as we are moving towards another election in the country, there is going to be upheaval. In order to avert the impending problems in the country, Muslims should observe fasting and prayers on the first Friday of the year while Christians should also fast and pray for peace to reign in the country on the first Sunday of the year so that peace can be restored in Nigeria. And if Nigerians still want the forthcoming general elections to hold, they have to pray very well so that there may not be trouble as a result of stalemated election. The chairman of Independent National Electoral Commission should be warned not to spoil his name and those of his officials in sensitive positions because if they do a thorough job, there may not be crisis. But if they are not careful, the election may be rigged just like what happened in Zimbabwe.

Also, the APC will still reclaim Ekiti State because many secrets would be unfolded about the government of the day in that state. Then in Lagos, Nigerians, especially the Yoruba, must be prayerful because that is where trouble may start in the New Year. APC is going to have problems concerning the party’s governorship candidate. PDP candidate, Jimi Agbaje, will have more support of the people and this is what will cause uproar in some circles if at all there is going to be elections. I say it again that if there is going to be election, Jimi Agbaje will have the upper hand because the candidate that should have won the election for APC was not given the chance to be presented as the party’s governorship candidate in Lagos state. APC should have presented Ganiyu Solomon, he was God’s anointed candidate for the party. This is the man God has chosen but the powers-that-be in the party did not allow him. That is why I said people do not listen to the voice of God again in this country. Rather, they are looking for those who would cover them and their mistakes up.

In politics, Nigerians should not dwell on religious considerations before they choose their leaders. Rather, they should vote for those who can serve them well. The people who were said to be clamouring for Christian governor in Lagos State may not even be Christians at all but church goers. They may not even be known in Christian circles because some of them are pagans.

If they were talking about Christian governor in a very important state like Lagos, what is the population of regular Christian voters in that state that vote during election periods? We should stop the habit of imposition of candidates for elections because of personal interests if we want democracy to thrive. A party leader, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, should stop this idea of imposition of candidates in APC, that is what is killing the party and he has to watch his health in the New Year.

What role is reserved for the traditional institution and other leaders in Yoruba land in next year’s election so that the zone would not be turned into a battle ground?I think it would be better if paramount rulers like the Ooni of Ife, Oba Okunade Sijuwade; the Awujale of Ijebuland, Oba Sikiru Adetona and the Osile of Oke–Ona Egba, Oba Adedapo Tejuosho, among other numerous important traditional rulers in Yorubaland, should call for a meeting of traditional rulers to seek peace in their domains so that there would be no wild, wild West again. In fact, all well-meaning Yoruba sons and daughters should come together to seek the peace of the land. Most of our leaders need prayers to survive 2015. Nigeria’s First Lady, Dame Patience Jonathan, needs prayers so that she would not be rushed to the hospital again in the New Year. I see some traditional rulers passing away...

Former President Olusegun Obasanjo is an elder statesman, he should mellow down because Jonathan is his son. The two leaders should be reconciled by their mutual friends and they should not listen to those who want to cause disaffection between the two leaders so that this country can move forward.

Also, the seat of the Senate President is very hot, therefore, Senator David Mark has to be very careful so that he would not lose his relevance because I see him sitting on a keg of gum powder. Again, President Jonathan should be very careful about how he handles the outcome of the 2015 presidential election.

The Independent National Electoral Commission is in a fix about a possible run-off in the presidential election between the two leading candidates, Gen. Muhammadu Buhari and President Goodluck Jonathan.

The 2010 Electoral Act (as amended) stipulates the organisation of a run-off within seven days of a presidential election, if there is no outright winner at the first ballot.

Sources at INEC are now saying that


the stipulated Seven days are too short to prepare for a run-off in presidential or governorship poll.

There is a proposal to amend that section of the Electoral Act at the National Assembly since 2012.

Investigation by The Nation showed that INEC is in a fix over possible governorship and presidential run-offs, especially between Jonathan (PDP) and Buhari (APC).

The timetable for the 2015 poll published by the Secretary to INEC, Mrs. Augusta Ogakwu, on January 4, 2014 included a caveat for run-off.

It said: “Note: Run-off election to the Office of President or Governor of a state (if any) will be held within seven days after the announcement of the result of the election in accordance with the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria(FRN).”

Another key official of INEC said: “The more the process becomes credible, the likelihood of a presidential run-off. But INEC management is in a fix on how to go about the presidential run-off, if it becomes necessary for the nation to go through it in 2015.

“The seven-day gap between when the presidential election will hold and the run-off is not feasible for us to print ballot papers, result sheets and distribute the sensitive election materials nationwide.

“In 2011, we did anticipatory printing of ballot papers for presidential run-off, but some people/groups wrote petitions against INEC. They said we printed run-off ballot papers ahead because we wanted to rig the elections.

“They also accused INEC of wasting taxpayers’ money on run-off ballot papers when the poll did not hold. Some of our officials were taken to the Force Criminal Investigation Department (FCID), queried and subjected to unnecessary interrogation.

“With this nasty experience, INEC will not want to print presidential run-off ballot papers in advance again. It has learnt its lessons in a hard way.

“But in 2012, we made a proposal to the National Assembly for the amendment of the seven-day clause in the Electoral Act for more days to prepare for any run-off.

“As I speak with you, the National Assembly is yet to effect the amendment. This kind of lapse can lead to more electoral challenges in 2015.

“And at the end of the day, Nigerians will be blaming INEC. If you ask me now, I will say we have no position yet on how to go about any run-off.”

Seriously? Is Yemi Alade pregnant for Alex Ekubo??

In recent times, there have been rumour trailing the duo of sexy singer, Yemi Alade and charming actor, Alex Ekubo. Tale-bearers claim Alex and Yemi are deep in a romantic affair together.
At an event held over the weekend in Lagos, Yemi Alade and Alex Ekubo were both at red carpet and pictures from the ceremony show what looks like a protruding stomach of Yemi Alade.
This has caused some rumour mongers to say Yemi Alade may be carrying Alex Ekubo’s baby.

Both entertainers have denied having any intimate affection for each, but Alex once described Yemi Alade as his best friend, who is very nice and understanding.
“Yemi is vibrant, she’s a breath of fresh air, and she’s young, creative and talented. Have you seen Yemi dance? I’ve been in two of her videos and she is my darling, a sweetheart and there are two things I don’t talk about; they are my finance and my relationship,” these were inspiring words used by Alex Ekubo in describing Yemi Alade.

the Lagos State Police Command has detained two Fulani herdsmen, Mohammed Umar and Manu Hassan, for allegedly robbing motorists on the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway.

It was learnt that Umar and Hassan, who were herdsmen from the Ngaski area of Kebbi State, were arrested by soldiers attached to the OP MESA while they were robbing some innocent Nigerians. Three locally-made rifles and some cartridges were recovered from the gang.

The soldiers later handed them over to the state Special Anti-Robbery Squad.

According to Punch report, the police say the gang of Fulani herdsmen robbers, apart from the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway, also has hideouts in the Abbatoir, Abule Egba and Agege where they perpetrate their acts.

It was learnt that while the soldiers apprehended Umar and Hassan, four other members of the gang evaded arrest, and were still on the run. The police further said the suspected herdsmen robbers also had hideouts in the Igbo Ora and Saki areas of Oyo State.

Speaking with Punch, 28-year-old Umar said he had come to Kara Market on the expressway to make a living by selling cows before he joined the gang.

He said, “I am married with two children, and my family is based in Kebbi. I was formerly selling cows at the Kara Market before I was introduced to the gang. I rob on the highway and also steal cows, although I don’t enjoy it. I have stolen about 12 cows this year.

“I sold them to one Alhaji Dan Manu in Abbatoir, Agege. I sold six to him for N500,000. I don’t have problem taking the cows away. I know their language.”

22-year-old Hassan, from Bonza area of Kebbi State, said the gang had just started their operation when the OP MESA stormed the place.

He said, “It was Mohammed (Umar) who said they had a work to do that night and I should come with them. I thought he was talking about construction labour. But when I knew we were going to rob on the expressway, I told them I could not use a gun. They threatened to kill me, and then handed me one of their guns.

“We had hardly started the operation when the soldiers arrived at the scene. Others ran away, but I was caught. We were seven in number. The soldiers might have killed me, but I surrendered to them, explaining that it was my first time.”

The police in Lagos are on top of the situation and trying to get other members of the gang.
