<b>The All Progressives Congress, APC, has said President Goodluck Jonathan is only shedding crocodile tears with his lamentation over the fact that Nigeria has become more divided along religious and ethnic lines today than at any time in its history.</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"Mr. President, there is no point being sanctimonious about an issue for which you bear the most responsibility. You are the most divisive leader in the history of Nigeria, having ceaselessly exploited the country’s fault lines for political gains," the party said in a statement issued in Abuja on Thursday by its National Publicity Secretary, Lai Mohammed.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It said President Jonathan is the first leader to have turned the house of worship to a political arena, using the pulpit to make political and policy statements and making a show of what should ordinarily be a very personal religious affair.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
APC said the President’s lamentation is aimed at pulling the wool over the eyes of Nigerians with a view to extracting undeserved political gains, especially a few weeks before next month’s elections.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"Where was President Jonathan when his spokespersons and party members sought to pit Christians against Muslims by labelling the country’s main opposition party, the APC, as an Islamic Party?</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"Where was President Jonathan when his spokespersons and party members sought to portray all adherents of a particular faith as terrorists? Not once did this President call his loquacious and sycophantic supporters to order when they were denigrating people of other tribes, calling them unprintable names. Not once did he call his supporters to order when they were threatening to bring the country down if he is not re-elected.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"President Jonathan himself led the divisive band by tagging the leaders of a whole people ‘rascals’, just because people dared to protest against his administration’s policies. A man who got a pan-Nigerian mandate turned himself into a tribal leader, running a government that excludes a critical mass of the nation’s demography and pigeon-holing himself into an ethnic cocoon.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"A President who has undermined the nation’s unity with his actions and utterances, and a President who has cashed in on all the nation’s fault lines to feather his own political nest definitely lacks the moral authority to preach to anyone about unity. He is the embodiment of divisiveness, hence he has no business being self-righteous," the party said.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It called on Nigerians of all hues to repudiate the divisiveness that is embodied in President Jonathan and his party, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), so that the country’s ‘unity in diversity’ can once again become a reality, rather than a mere saying.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>With a tension soaked atmosphere, the Nigeria general election hits a countdown of days as various political parties and contenders continue to rally round for the sympathy and votes of the electorates. Apart from the federating states with rainbow like contending parties, the presidential election which seems to have gained more international interest and attention is arguably between the All Progressive Congress (APC) and the People’s Democratic Party (PDP).</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Initially, many pundits in spite of the on-going insurgency in the North East and unending daily bashing of whatever is left of President Goodluck Jonathan’s goodwill by the press and the opposition believes the President may pull this battle through and we were right in making such calls as at then. Looking at the factors that determine electoral victory, President Jonathan as at November, 2014 was still doing well in the race. His strongholds were still under his control. Public perception (though battered, still share some level of sympathy for him), the religion card, coupled with his frequent visits to Jerusalem and the apathy of voters’ towards presidential election were elements, if sustained could have earned him victory.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Events in the past few weeks have however shown clearly that the people with such believe of President Jonathan’s victory come February 14, 2015 may have overestimated the political exposure, determination and goodwill of the President. From available facts, President Jonathan seems to be suffering from cerebral leukemia- a blockage of the flow of reality to the brain, creating a delusional image of popularity and acceptability, hence decisions are irrationally taking without recourse to pragmatic events.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Undoubtedly President Jonathan hasn’t been the best president in the history of the country with unending allegations and counter allegations of financial misappropriations, downtrodden economy and perpetual insecurity in the North East but the zenith of this is his unholy charade with a renowned poster boy of a military junta and another captain of corruption who have suddenly leveraged on the inept trait of the president to take a sainthood form and rewrite their narratives. This window created by the president is unforgivable!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Away from the razzmatazz of social media, the defeat of President Jonathan at the poll in 2015 will be largely due to his own undoing. In all sincerely, a close examination of Jonathan disposition to the 2015 election shows a man who is tired of the pressures and demands associated with the presidential seat. Left to Mr. Jonathan, he would have thrown in the towel long ago and take a trip to the serene and calm village of Otuoke but for the notable cabals who benefit immensely from his incapacitation. For them, the demand for him to continue in office is overwhelming.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The All Progressive Congress on the other hand, having identified these elements took no time in unnecessary glorification of illusional popularity and worked vigorously at ensuring a united team, creating a strategic campaign system where people-focused manifesto devour of unnecessary ‘TAN-nated’ dancers are passed directly to the electorates. Paint a message of anti-corruption ( though giving no convincing model to be adopted) against a generally perceived corrupt government. Build a mindset of change seeking electorates who would see the election as a form of revolution waiting to happen and position itself as the long awaited saviour. All these it got right!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
President Jonathan’s campaign strategy is currently based around the following factors. Grassroot penetration, Religion, Southern support and achievements in office.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Grassroots politics has been identified as the strong pole of electoral victory as mostly those in the grassroot have limited access to the media hence their decisions are not based on press influence, they believe majorly the decisions of charismatic leaders they know and trust. Using this model in core consideration of the INEC election timetable which places National Assembly and presidential election on the same day one would have expected the president to ensure candidates of his party contesting for the National Assembly seats are people with massive grassroot presence, well respected and loved. The effect of this, is to have the president leverage on the popularity of these individuals at the poll, hence electorates are indirectly forced to vote for him without much ado. Unfortunately the list of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) candidates flying around shows clearly that the president may not be well informed. A case study is that of Ogun State where Senatorial tickets are dashed out to concubine of kinsmen and renowned international fugitive who have lost every bit of acceptability and whose name continue to be a stain to the already tainted garment of PDP leaves the mind dazed.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
In a similar way he has presided over Nigeria, President Jonathan has further carried his indecisive mode to the PDP. With few weeks to the election, the party is still engulfed in unnecessary division largely due to the inability of the president to call the shot and take a concrete stand on issues surrounding the candidature of some of the aspirants. This the party may soon pay for dearly!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
As a Christian, President Jonathan believed strongly that almost every Christian would overwhelming vote for him come February 14 and he was right about this. If there is one thing the PDP has done successfully, it is the painting of General Buhari has a bigot, however, this was before the emergence of Pastor Osinbajo as the APC vice-presidential candidate. Unlike Pastor Tunde Bakare who was General Buhari’s running mate in 2011, Osinbajo comes from one of the most conscious and populated Church in the world, the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) and even though the General Overseer, Pastor Adeboye is yet to publicly endorse any candidate, members of the church are aware of the strategic plans some of the most influential pastors in the church (who are known to be the G.O’s footsoldiers) are putting up to ensure Pastor Osinbajo comes out victorious. This is not limited to the RCCG alone as close sources within the Catholic faith and other radical pentecostals are now much more sympathetic to the progressives cause having also revealed similar plans. If these works out, President Jonathan maybe more empty politically than we think. This is the price you pay when campaigns are based on religion rather than issues and policies.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
As at last year, even though the All Progressive Congress controls majority the Southwestern states, pragmatic politics showed that the electorates may favour Jonathan (with exception of Lagos) compared to Buhari largely due to the rancour among leaders of the All Progressive Congress in the states and lack of connect of the Governors in those states with the electorates as against a perceived united Peoples Democratic Party. However, the lack of decisive leadership saw the party losing what could have been a bulk vote in Oyo state torn into shreds with the emergence of major political heavy weights under different party platforms. The implication of this is that the votes which ought to have been galvanised for PDP during the presidential election will now receive minimal attention from political actors, some of whose parties are even without presidential candidates as the political exposure of an average Nigerian is still immature to result into voting for different parties in a single election.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The Southeast which was initially penned down as the unshakable stronghold of the president now appears as uncertain. The endless bickering on PDP’s gubernatorial candidature in Ebonyi, Enugu and Imo have opened a glimmer of hope for APC in those states. The All Progressive Grand Alliance (APGA) believed to represent the political consciousness of the south Easterners has suddenly pulled out of its usual endorsement for President Jonathan to pitch tent with General Buhari. In a similar action, foremost Igbo socio-cultural group, Ohaneze Ndigbo in spite of pressures to endorse Mr. Jonathan have refused to yield. The South South region also doesn’t seems united in having Jonathan win the election with divisions in Bayelsa, Delta and Akwa Ibom. The results from these regions may not only be shocking but catastrophical.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
If there is one thing APC has gotten right, it is its campaign strategy. Beyond criticism, the party has been able to put forward a well coordinated campaign with the youth at the forefront of its media and mobilization section. This has helped the party reach out to minds of young ones in schools, Colleges, Universities and other tertiary institutions. The party has also done well in the management of resources, as funds get to the right hands and used judiciously.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The Peoples Democratic Party in spite of its huge resources continue to run an uncoordinated, uninspiring, ridiculous and tan-ated adverts which possesses little or no content but a choreography of dancers dancing to nowhere.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Let’s believe the world may have been bamboozled into believing lies and propagandas against the President but what excuse can the president give to these elements right under his control that he let slipped away?</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Some say the time for change is now, I say let what will be, be. As for me, I stand with history in February, praying silently that this path would never be taken again!</div>

MEND Leader, Henry Okah, Was Paid To Kill Me - Jonathan

<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>President Goodluck Jonathan on Thursday stated that the estranged leader of the Movement for the Emancipation of Niger Delta (MEND) Henry Okah was paid to assassinate him when he masterminded bomb attacks within the premises where Nigeria was celebrating its 50 years independence anniversary.</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The President stated this at the Tafawa Balewa Square, Lagos at a PDP rally where he predicated his statement on a headline he read in a national daily which read that MEND dumps Jonathan.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
According to him, the leader of MEND was one Okah who is currently imprisoned alongside his wife in South Africa. He said his trial was in South Africa and not in Nigeria where one can say it is manipulated by the President. ”Now the same Okah who is in jail abroad is now endorsing some people through his group,” Jonathan said.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Jonathan then asked; ”Is this the kind of Nigeria you want where a group like MEND will be endorsing party candidates?” To this, the crowd he was addressing yelled: ” No!”</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It would be recalled that President Jonathan wasted no time in absolving MEND from any complicity in the the 2010 bombing attack, which occurred in Eagles Square</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
He had also been reported to have stated in several fora that the main rights group in Nigeria’s Niger Delta had been disbanded.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>

More coming up.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>The Social Democratic Party, SDP, Ogun State chapter, is persuading Rt. Hon. Dimeji Bankole to accept the governorship ticket of the party in the State in the 28 February governorship election.</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Below is how <b><a href="http://www.pmnewsnigeria.com/2015/01/08/osoba-asks-bankole-to-pick-ogun-sdp-guber-ticket/">PM NEWS</a></b> reports the story.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Our correspondent gathered that the former Governor of the State who is also a chieftain of SDP, Chief Olusegun Osoba, has been persuading the former Speaker of the House of Representatives, Bankole to accept to run for the governorship seat.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
A source close to Osoba told our correspondent last night that Bankole may accept to run as that would boost the political profile of the former Governor in the state.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The party had earlier submitted the names of the incumbent Senator representing Ogun West Senatorial District, Sen. Akin Odunsi and daughter of the late former Governor, Chief Bisi Onabanjo, who was also the former TESCOM boss under the present administration, Barr. (Ms.) Olivia Olubukanla Onabanjo as the governorship and deputy governorship candidates of the party respectively.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It was gathered that the names of both the governorship and the deputy governorship candidate submitted to the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, are still by proxy, meaning that those names could still be substituted by the party before the deadline.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
P.M.NEWS reliably gathered that Chief Osoba has met with the former Speaker’s father, Chief Alani Bankole, a.k.a. <i>Caterpillar</i>, who recently lost one of his wives, <b><a href="http://nigerianewsroom.blogspot.com/2015/01/lagos-society-lady-adunni-bankole-dies.html">Iyalode Adunni Bankole</a></b>, to help persuade his son to accept the ticket, but the man has directed him to speak with him (Dimeji) himself, as he is also his (Osoba's) son.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It was also gathered that <i>Caterpillar</i>, as Chief Alani Bankole is fondly called, openly expressed his displeasure with the emergence of the Social Democratic Party, SDP, maintaining that it is like the PPN in 2011, which was formed as a spoiler then for the PDP.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The source revealed that the senior Bankole had openly told Osoba at the meeting that he will be supporting Governor Amosun with his supporters during the coming election, since PDP has not given his son the governorship ticket.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
He however maintained that the issue should be discussed directly with Dimeji as he is man enough to decide on his own.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"Chief Olusegun Osoba has met with Baba Bankole, they have discussed and Osoba has appealed to Baba to help him persuade the former Speaker to accept the governorship ticket of the Social Democratic Party, SDP, in the state.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"After the talk, Baba Bankole openly distanced himself from the issue as he stood his ground that he and his supporters have concluded their plans to support Governor Ibikunle Amosun during the coming election since the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, has failed to give the ticket to Dimeji.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"<i>Caterpillar</i> also told Akinrogun Osoba to continue to engage the former Speaker in the talk before the deadline for the submission of the final list to INEC. I think next week is the deadline. As I am speaking with you, pressure is still being piled on the former Speaker to accept the offer as some of his associates have also been contacted to talk to him and let him see reason why he should accept the golden offer,” a very close source to both parties, who was privy to all the discussions explained to our correspondent Wednesday night.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>P.M.NEWS</b> can also reveal that among those Osoba has contacted to speak with Bankole are the former Ogun East Senator, Sen. Lekan Mustapha and Dave Salako.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>A female police corporal, Funmilayo Balogun, has been arrested for stealing a Honda Accord car valued at ₦5 million, which she sold to an unsuspecting client.</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Ms. Balogun, 35, was paraded on Wednesday by the Ogun State Police Command. She was wearing a police uniform with the rank of Assistant Superintendent of Police.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It was learnt that the suspect was dismissed from the Force in 2010 for presenting fake academic certificates to get employment into the police force.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
After her dismissal, she allegedly promoted herself to the rank of Assistant Superintendent of Police, ASP, and allegedly started stealing cars in automobile stores across the South-Western part of the country.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
She allegedly committed the offence in October 2014, when she approached a car dealer in Oke-Ilewo area of Abeokuta on the pretense that she wanted to buy the car.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Confessing to the crime at the Special Anti-Robbery Squad, SARS, headquarters in Abeokuta, where she was paraded, Ms. Balogun said she wore a police uniform for the operation, adding that she told the car sellers that she needed to transfer money into their account to balance cash at hand.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
According to the suspect, she drove two of the car dealers to the police headquarters at Eleweran in Abeokuta, where she abandoned them and fled with the car that she later sold to someone in Port Harcourt, Rivers State at ₦3.5 million. She said she has since been paid ₦2 million.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The police also paraded an armed robbery gang made up of seven teenagers, who were allegedly behind different robbery cases reported in the Ijebu axis of the state.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Items recovered from the suspects were two locally made pistols, mobile phones, charms and eight vehicles.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
A 32-year-old man was also arrested for killing his mother at Ibefun, in Odogbolu area of the state.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The State Commissioner of Police, Ikemefuna Okoye, said the command would continue to strive to rid the state of crime and criminal elements.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>A lot of onlookers who are lovers of Nollywood actress, Tonto Dikeh have been wondering what is really going on with the actress’ relationship status.</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It would be recalled that at an event last year, Tonto Dikeh openly declared that <b>Michael Awujoola</b> popularly known as <i>Malivelihood</i> is her boyfriend. But towards the end of last year, the actress began flaunting a supposed new man on her social media accounts, calling him <i>‘Mr X’</i>. She has not revealed the identity of the new man.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Well, <b><a href="https://www.google.com.eg/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=1&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0CB4QFjAA&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ladunliadinews.com%2F&ei=6JauVJmvKemy7Qa-uYHgCQ&usg=AFQjCNFqbwH0EO2k8cyIiXIhF9bA5bqZAg&sig2=Jb5IINA7IE-jTBOTLSjVPA">LadunLiadi</a></b> has dug out the real gist behind the actress’ relationship. It was made known that the much publicized relationship in which Tonto got customized iphones, a customized blackberry phone, Jewelry, and a whole lot of other gifts all customized for her by <i>Malivelihood</i> is no longer existing. This is because they have broken up.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i>Malivelihood</i> who is an entrepreneur who makes customized items for celebrities got known also when the actress helped in advertising his numerous products always on her Instagram account back then. All these have however stopped according to <b>LadunLiadi</b> since the two love birds have gone their separate ways.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Deola is the daughter of popular Senator representing Kogi District, <b>Senator Adeyemi Smart</b>. Deola’s parents are said to be great philanthropists.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
They recently gave out 100’s of cars and well over 100 deep freezers to the needy in the society at last month’s Christmas. Her dad loves to give, and so does her mom too.

<b>A lorry conveying ballot boxes stored in a 40-feet container, said to belong to the Independent National Electoral Commission was arrested in Ibadan, the Oyo State capital by the police at about 2am in the Yemetu area.</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
According to <b><a href="http://www.punchng.com/news/police-arrest-lorry-with-ballot-boxes-in-ibadan/">The Punch</a></b>, the trailer was arrested on the suspicion that it was carrying contraband items but was later discovered that its contents were ballot boxes meant for the next month election in Osun State.</div>

<br />
French police say two suspects in Wednesday's terrorist attack on Charlie Hebdo magazine are still on the loose after escaping onto the streets of Paris.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
In a statement on their website, French national police ask for information on the whereabouts of suspects Cherif Kouachi and Said Kouachi, warning that both could be armed and dangerous.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Police released photos of the two men, who Paris Deputy Mayor Patrick Klugman told <b>CNN</b> are brothers in their 30s.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Police found an ID document of Said Kouachi at the scene of the shooting, <b>CNN</b> affiliate <b>BFMTV</b> reported. "It was their only mistake," said Dominique Rizet, BFMTV's police and justice consultant, reporting that the discovery helped the investigation.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Citing sources, the Agence France Presse news agency reported that an 18-year-old suspect in the attack had surrendered to police. <b>CNN</b> has not independently confirmed whether the suspect has surrendered.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Police fanned out across France in an intense manhunt for the suspects, who were masked and dressed in black when they burst into the satirical magazine's office Wednesday, killing 12 people.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
A tactical unit was deployed in an operation about a 144 kilometers (about 90 miles) from Paris in Reims, France, following the attack, CNN affiliate BFMTV reported. Authorities haven't revealed details about the target of the operation, but speculation surged in French media that investigators could be closing in on the suspects.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
French authorities vowed to step up security and apprehend those responsible.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"Everything will be done to arrest (the attackers)," French President Francois Hollande said in a speech Wednesday night. "... We also have to protect all public places. Security forces will be deployed everywhere there can be the beginning" of a threat.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It's too soon to say whether the suspects were operating alone, CNN terrorism analyst Paul Cruickshank said.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Some experts warned that how well the gunmen wielded their weapons, hid their identities and apparently planned their escape showed a marked difference from previous "lone wolf" attacks -- and could be a game changer.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>The All Progressives Congress (APC) has dismissed as hogwash the findings of the DSS following its raid on the party’s offices in Lagos, saying the findings presented to the media by the agency on Wednesday were a great disservice to Nigeria and an embarrassment to all intelligence-gathering organizations around the world.</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
In a statement issued on Wednesday by its National Publicity Secretary, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, the party also described the timing of the release of the findings as a plot orchestrated in collusion with the PDP to distract the APC from its ongoing campaigns for next month’s elections.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It described as disingenuous, flimsy, premeditated, partisan and an irritant the conclusion that the APC had an <i>"articulated plan to inflate the party’s membership data as well as hack into INEC’s voter registration database through the creation of party membership forms and cards to match INEC’s voters register across the country”</i>.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The DSS had yesterday told newsmen that <b><a href="http://nigerianewsroom.blogspot.co.uk/2015/01/2015-elections-apc-plans-to-hack-inec.html">the main opposition party was planning to clone INEC's database</a></b> with a view to inflating its (APC's) membership data. The security agency used the gathering to display some items and documents it recovered from the APC Lagos office raid some months back.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i>"First the DSS and the PDP said the APC was cloning Permanent Voters Cards at the raided office, without a shred of evidence. Now, after a 'painstaking' investigation, the DSS has found out that the APC was only planning to inflate its membership data and then hack into INEC’s database. And this is the outcome of its massive, months-long investigations?”</i>, Mohammed queried.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has challenged the All Progressives Congress (APC) to come out clean and explain to Nigerians, its connections with the militant group, Movement for the Emancipation of the Niger Delta (MEND).</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
PDP National Publicity Secretary, <b>Olisa Metuh</b>, in a statement on Wednesday said while the onus lies on the APC to choose those to work with in their quest for power, <i>“the explanation has become necessary following the unsavory public reactions and concerns trailing the statement by MEND backing their Presidential candidate, Muhammadu Buhari."</i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i><br /></i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><a href="http://nigerianewsroom.blogspot.co.uk/2015/01/cest-fini-niger-delta-militant-group.html">MEND had publicly declared its support for the APC presidential candidate, Muhammadu Buhari, </a></b>saying supporting the incumbent president <b>Goodluck Jonathan</b>, in the first instance, was the greatest mistake Niger Deltans ever made.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i><br /></i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Metuh continued:<i> “What exactly does APC have in common with MEND? Why do they want to resurrect it? Nigerians want to know. Are we also expecting a similar statement from insurgents in the north, who initially named General Buhari to lead the dialogue between them and the Federal Government?</i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i><br /></i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Reacting to MEND's endorsement of Buhari, another Ijaw group, the <b><a href="http://nigerianewsroom.blogspot.co.uk/2015/01/ijaw-youths-council-carpets-mend-for.html">Ijaw Youth Council (IYC) had carpeted MEND saying it was a 'ghost' organization</a></b> as the original MEND no longer existed since Yar'Adua's administration offer of amnesty to Niger Delta militants.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Till date MEND has not officially accepted the amnesty offer.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i><br /></i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The PDP scribe said<i>“Nigerians are indeed worried by these developments. We therefore urge the APC to come out clean and explain to the citizens what they have in common with these groups, especially given the statement by their flag bearer, after the 2011 elections, that the ‘dogs and baboons will all be soaked in blood”.</i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i><br /></i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
However, in a swift reaction, <b><a href="http://nigerianewsroom.blogspot.co.uk/2015/01/mend-dares-pdp-iyc-reaffirms-support.html">MEND through its spokesman, Jomo Gbomo has called the bluff of both the IYC and the PDP</a></b> saying it made no mistake declaring support for Buhari. </div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>The Lagos State governorship candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, Mr. Jimi Agbaje, has warned that if President Goodluck Jonathan fails to win next month’s election, the South-South could shut down the oil sector and this would affect the nation’s economy which is oil-dependent.</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Agbaje, however, asked that if another part of the country shuts down over the failure of its candidate emerging President, would it have an equal effect on the economy since Nigeria relies heavily on the Niger Delta for its foreign exchange earnings, <b><a href="http://www.punchng.com/politics/ssouth-can-collapse-economy-if-jonathan-loses-agbaje/">The Punch</a></b> reports.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Jonathan hails from the South-South while his major contender, Maj. Gen Muhammadu Buhari (retd.) of the All Progressives Congress, hails from the North-West.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The PDP governorship candidate said this at meeting in London organised by his supporters and the UK chapter of the PDP.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
In the six-minute video clip posted on <a href="http://diasporapr.com/"><b>DiasporaPr.com</b></a>, which was sighted by our correspondent, Agbaje warned that Jonathan’s victory was imperative.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
“I was active in the politics of the South-West in 1999. The Afenifere of which I was a very active member, did not support Olusegun Obasanjo as President but in 2003, it was difficult for the Afenifere as an organisation to go out and tell people that they should not vote a Yoruba man into office and so what did they do? They said they would not present a candidate because they had their own son (Obasanjo) who was running for office. That is the politics of that country.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
“Now, in 2015, we are saying that the South-South has presented a candidate and we are talking about equity and some are saying that he should not be given a second term. This is a very difficult thing.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
“In argument, some have said ‘what will happen?’ Well, people will be upset and they have shown that they have the power to shut down the system. I am not saying it is justified but the reality is there. If the system is shut down, where are we as a country?</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
“They say if the others don’t get it, they too could shut down the system. Yes they can shut down the system but ask yourself which of the two do you think we can survive with? And these are the realities that we have to face.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
“These are the realities that we have to allow. First, we have to sell the achievements of our person but we have to understand the politics of our country that we are still doing turn by turn and it must run in a way that is equitable.”</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Agbaje said Jonathan had done very well but his achievements were not been publicised well enough.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
He said Buhari was too old to rule, adding that he was being controlled by people with selfish ambition.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
He said, “The Buhari of 2007 and 2011 is not the Buhari of 2015. The Buhari of 2015 is a more compromised candidate. He is not working on his steam any longer; he is working on the steam of those who want him there for their own reasons.”</div>

Accompanied by the party’s National Chairman, Chief John Odigie-Oyegun, Senator Olorunimbe Mamora, Mrs. Abike Dabiri-Erewa, Prince Tony Momoh, APC governorship candidate in Cross River, Mr. Odey Ochicha, among others, Buhari said his party would tackle insecurity and expand the economy if voted into power.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
He said, <i>“The situation in Nigeria is of great concern to us. We are going to attack two fundamental programmes. These are security and economy. We are determined to make sure that the economy is expanded so that the tendency to steal is discouraged. Agriculture will be given priority and this will give immediate relief to the huge unemployed Nigerians”</i>.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
The former military ruler also said the power sector would be stabilized in order to resuscitate dying industries in the country.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i>“If you go down memory lane, during the period of regional governments, the leaders then used to allocate 43 per cent of the budget on education and that is why their names will never be forgotten. We will try to secure our country; we will ensure industries are resuscitated.</i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i><br /></i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i>“Our industries are dying and will continue to die unless we get the issue of power supply correct. We will resuscitate our industries”</i>, he added.</div>

Buhari used the occasion to appeal to the electorate to ensure they secure their Permanent Voter Cards and vote massively for the APC in the February general elections.</div>
