<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>President Goodluck Jonathan on Thursday urged the incoming Buhari administration to continue to boost the railway system as the cheapest and most effective mode of mass transit in the country.</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The president said this when he inspected the ongoing construction of the National Railway Terminal at Idu and the Abuja light rail transit system.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Jonathan said he was happy with the progress of work done on the projects and called on the state governors to also build light rails in their state capitals.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"We cannot do mass transit using taxis, small cars and small buses even the luxury buses.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"It will be too expensive until our rail system works.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"That is why we are emphasizing on inter-city rail and intra-city light rail systems and of course this government is leaving on May 29 but the incoming government will definitely continue.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"This is a noble project, it will benefit Nigerians, especially residents of the FCT.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"I am quite appreciative of the level of completion; the CCECC (China Engineering and Construction Company) has been doing very well.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
'I am quite impressed; I have been wanting to come and inspect this project for a very long time but it has been so challenging in terms of my commitments.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"I think this period I really need to do so that when I am having conversation with the incoming President; I know exactly what to tell him.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"I have seen it myself. I have seen the level of completion and of course we know the usefulness of this project to us in terms of easing the movement of people in the Federal Capital Territory.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"I have to congratulate Nigerians for this project."</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Jonathan said the projects were dear to the Federal Government, adding that it was the target of his administration to link up all states of the federation.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
He, however, said that the state governments were being encouraged to construct intra-rail systems in the major capitals to ease transportation.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Earlier, the Secretary of Transport in FCT, Mr Jonathan Ivoke, said that the National Rail Line and the Abuja light rail were almost completed and both lines were interlinked.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
He said the system was conceived in 2007 while work started in 2009 due to financial difficulties and the securing of the consultancy.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
He said that the project was remodeled and segmented to achieve completion.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Ivoke said the Lot 1 of the project was valued at ₦823 million which had attained 61 per cent completion of the double standard gauge.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
He said that 29km out of the 49.24km length had been completed, adding that the stockpile of the needed materials for the entire job was on ground.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
According to him, the job is being hampered by the realignment of the Airport axis and the relocation of illegal structures at the Central Area axis for the metro station.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
NAN reports that President Jonathan and the entourage had a test ride on the rail track from Jabi to Idu using three construction coaches.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>A Federal High Court in Lagos on Thursday accepted the application for discontinuance of suit filed by 19 All Progressives Congress (APC) lawmakers in Ekiti State, challenging the impeachment of Speaker Adewale Omirin.</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Justice Saliu Saidu while striking out the suit marked FHC/L/CS/1823/14, and filed against the Governor, Ayodele Fayose and 13 others for their alleged role in the impeachment of Omirin and his deputy, Adetunji Orisalade, awarded ₦100, 000 cost in favour of the defendants.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The plaintiffs had on April 7, filed an application through their lawyer, Norrison Quakers (SAN), seeking to discontinue their case against Fayose, the seven People's Democratic Party’s (PDP) lawmakers and others, over the "unlawful" removal of Omirin and Orisalade on November 20 last year.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Joined as the defendants along with Fayose,  Dele Olugbemi and Olayinka Abeni were the Inspector General of Police, the Commissioner of Police in the state and the Department of State Service.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Others include the three commissioners cleared for appointment by the House under Olugbemi's leadership and the five other PDP lawmakers in the House.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The plaintiffs among other things, sought an order restraining the factional Speaker of the House, Olugbemi, and his deputy, Abeni, from either parading themselves as or executing duties in the capacity of the leaders of the House.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The plaintiffs' move to discontinue the suit was objected by the defendants who argued that the matter should rather be dismissed, since it has filed its statement of defence.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Counsel to the defendants, E.O. Afolayan, representing his principal Femi Adesina (SAN), prayed the court to dismiss the suit because "it is the proper thing to do."</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
He urged the court to dismiss the case in order to foreclose any future representation of the matter by the plaintiffs.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>An official with the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) was Thursday arraigned before a Federal High Court in Lagos for alleged trafficking of cocaine.</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The accused, Adeogun Ogunyemi was brought before Justice Saliu Saidu, alongside one Adams Micheal a.k.a. Chidi by the NDLEA.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
They were alleged to have conspired among themselves to import 2.692 kilograms of the banned substance into the country between January and March.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The court heard that the accused persons committed the offence at the International Mail Processing Centre, NACHO, International Airport, Ikeja.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
They were arraigned on a four count charge, bordering on drug trafficking punishable under Sections 14(b) and 11(a) of the NDLEA Act.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
However, the accused persons pleaded not guilty to the charges against them, prompting the NDLEA to plead that the duo be remanded in its custody pending the completion of investigation.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
His prayer was objected to by the defense counsel, Chief Benson, who told the court that the duo have been detained since March.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
After listening to the parties, Justice Saidu in a bench ruling ordered that the accused persons be remanded in NDLEA custody for seven days and adjourned the matter to May 14.</div>

Lagos Pastor In NDLEA's Net For Drug Trafficking

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>A pastor, Daniel Akintola, has been arrested by the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) with 1.9 kilogrammes of drug substance that tested positive for heroin.</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><a href="http://www.punchng.com/metro-plus/ndlea-nabs-pastor-for-drug-trafficking/">PUNCH Metro</a></b> learnt that the 43-year-old suspect, who pastors a church in Lagos State, was apprehended at the Akanu Ibiam International Airport, Enugu State along with one other suspected drug trafficker, Victor Onwuegbusi, from who 51.5kg of ephedrine was recovered.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It was gathered that the pastor had arrived at the airport from Uganda and had tried to abandon the luggage in which he packed the drug when he was arrested.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The agency also said the ephedrine was intercepted from Onwuegbusi, a businessman, while he was disembarking from a flight en route from Mozambique.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
In a statement he made to the investigators, Akintola, who hails from Oyo State, said he went to Uganda for a conference. He admitted that he owned the luggage, but feigned ignorance of the drug.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
He said, “I am a pastor with the Gospel Faith Mission International, Olayemi Assembly, Ipaja, Lagos. I attended a ministers’ conference in Uganda. This bag containing heroin is my bag, but I am a pastor and not a drug trafficker.”</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The pastor was said to be unable to provide proof that he actually attended the conference.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Onwuegbusi, however, said he was hired to take ephedrine to Maputo, Mozambique for a fee of $2,500, adding that he would have used the proceed to establish a business.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
“They paid my return ticket and promised that the person that would receive the bag in Maputo would give me $2,500. I would have invested the money in import business.”</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The NDLEA commander at the Enugu Airport, Nsikak-Abasi Udoh, said the agency had commenced investigation into the crime.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
He said, “Akintola unlawfully possessed 1.9kg of heroin while returning from Entebbe, a major town in Central Uganda. He wanted to abandon the luggage, but we detected his intention. The drug was carefully concealed in a false bottom of his luggage. The second suspect is a businessman who had parcels of ephedrine weighing 51.5kg which he wanted to smuggle to Maputo, Mozambique. The suspects are being investigated.”</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The NDLEA Chairman, Ahmadu Giade, said the agency was fully prepared to unravel every bit of ploy that could be employed by smugglers.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Alhaji Adamu Mu’azu, has responded to the threat of Governor Ayodele Fayose of Ekiti State to release evidence of Mu'azu’s "underhand dealings" with the All Progressives Congress (APC).</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The PDP National Chairman had faulted the calls of some PDP leaders on him and other members of the National Working Committee (NWC) of the party to resign, following the heavy defeat suffered by the party in the recent general elections, especially its loss in the presidential poll.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Fayose, one of those pushing for the resignation of Muazu, <b><a href="http://nigerianewsroom.blogspot.com/2015/05/2015-polls-ill-prove-muazu-worked-for.html">had threatened that he would release incriminating evidence of the National Chairman's secret support for the APC</a></b>, if Mu'azu pushed further his defence.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
On his twitter handle on Thursday, Mu'azu, who is said to be outside the country, mocked the controversial governor, wondering if the Ekiti governor's "evidence" would not be like his "evidence" during the presidential campaign, when Fayose said he was sure that the APC presidential candidate, Muhammadu Buhari, was dying in a London hospital.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
He said, "We challenge Governor Fayose to come out with the evidence that shows National Chairman worked for APC during the elections.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"We hope it’s not the kind of evidence he once said he had that Buhari was dying."</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>A generator repairer, Ayo Abimbola, has stabbed a Lagos estate chief security officer, Tochukwu Ejika, to death with a dagger.</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The incident happened in God's Own Estate, Ijanikin, Badagry, Lagos State after Ejika confronted the repairer on his mission in the area.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It was learnt that the suspect, who hails from Ikire, Osun State, on the fateful Saturday night, first hit the deceased with a plank in the head, before stabbing him with a dagger in the head and stomach.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Efforts to save the victim proved abortive as he reportedly gave up soon afterwards.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Policemen from the Ijanikin Division were said to have arrested the suspect and took the corpse of the victim to the mortuary.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Abimbola said his family members were in the village.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
He said the deceased had first stabbed him in the right arm with the dagger, before he decided to return the attack.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The suspect said he had visited the estate last week Friday to repair a generator and ask his friend to accommodate him.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
He said, “I repair generators for people in that estate and I have been doing the job since 2001. I had stayed in four different apartments but I was sent out of my last apartment because my landlord was always trying to interfere in my personal affair. He always complained that I beat my girlfriend.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
“My friend, Olokun, on Friday invited me to repair his generator. I went to his house with some clothes because I planned to beg him to let me stay with him for a few days.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
“He was not at home, but I met his wife. After repairing the generator, I dropped the bag there and told his wife to explain to him that I would like to live with them for a while.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
“I went back to the area the next day to repair generators for some more people. It was when I finished that I went back to Olokun’s house to know if I could stay with him.”</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
He said the man's wife paid him ₦500 for his service and told him her husband did not agree to accommodate him in the house.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Abimbola explained that he was not happy with the development but took it in good faith.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
He said around 8pm when he approached the estate gate, he was challenged by Ejika, who ordered him to return to where he was coming from.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
“I did not know he was the chief security officer and he did not tell me who he was. But when he said I should go back, I decided to approach him and explain what was happening to him. He picked a plank and hit me in the head with it. I dragged the plank from him and stabbed him in the head too.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
“He became angry and picked a dagger and stabbed me in the elbow. In annoyance, I seized it from him and struck him in the stomach and he fell down,” he added.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
He died afterwards due to the severity of the wound.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It was learnt that some other security officers in the area, who saw the incident, pounced on Abimbola and beat him up.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
They were said to have also alerted policemen from the Ijanikin division who arrested the suspect.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
A police source said, “The man is not as innocent as he claimed to be. He is one of those terrorising the area.”</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The Police Public Relations Officer, Kenneth Nwosu, confirmed the incident, adding that the matter had been transferred to the Department of Criminal Investigation, Panti.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
He said, “It happened on May 3. It was reported by a resident of God’s Own Estate. Investigations are ongoing and the suspect is in our custody.”</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Mrs Kudirat Adeboye, the 52-year-old businesswoman who was rescued from a forest used as kidnappers den along Epe Road, Lagos, two weeks ago, by operatives of Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS) yesterday gave a chilling account of her six-day ordeal in the hands of her abductors.</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The woman said she neither ate nor drank during her six-day ordeal.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Her account followed the arrest of three suspected members of the kidnap syndicate that abducted her at about 7pm, along Eleko Epe Expressway, on April 4.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Among them, was a popular DJ around Sangotedo area of Lekki and an electrician.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The suspects, Ifeanyin Chukwuleta, 25; Kolawole Alani, 26; and Rasheed Adetunji, 28, confessed to be responsible for the kidnap of persons within Lekki-Ajah, Epe and Ijebu-Ode areas of Lagos and Ogun states.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Their leader, one Niyi Omosola, reportedly died after an exchange of gun fire with the operatives, while he had gone to pick the ₦3 million ransom for the release of Adeboye, two weeks ago, along Ijebu-Ode road.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Describing the six days in the kidnapper’s den as the most horrible experience in her life, Adeboye, who also gave her name as Titilayo Kettle, said: “I really appreciate the police for their support, without which I could not have come out of that forest alive.”</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
“I never knew I would be alive to testify today. Those days were the most horrible days of my life and I never wish to experience such again.”</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Tragedy struck in Osogbo, Osun State on Wednesday after a 200-level law student of the Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile Ife, Miss Mary Ibitolu, was crushed to death by a bus owned by a private secondary school in Osogbo.</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It was gathered that the deceased was on a commercial motorcycle when the bus, which was said to have suffered brake failure, hit the motorcycle and knocked her down.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
She was said to have been rushed to a private hospital at Okefia where she gave up the ghost. The motorcyclist was said to have survived the accident.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
A commuter, who was waiting to board a bus, was also said to have been knocked down, but survived the incident.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
One of the eyewitnesses, a hawker, said that the school bus broke down, but the driver called on some passersby to assist him to push-start the engine.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
He said when the engine started running, the driver discovered that the brake had failed when he was approaching the motorcycle conveying Ibitolu.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
“He tried to stop the bus from hitting the okada but he failed. She fell off the motorcycle and was rushed to a hospital at Okefia, but she died there.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
One of the members of the Nigerian Federation of Catholic Students at the OAU, Mr. Timothy Agbor, said Ibitolu, was a member of the fellowship.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Agbor said, “I was shocked when somebody called and informed me that she died in an accident. Mary was a God-fearing lady. I can’t believe she is gone.”</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
He added that a requiem Mass was ongoing for the deceased at the Sacred Heart Catholic Church, Osogbo as of the time of filing this report.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The bus and the motorcycle were said to have been taken to the Dada Estate Police Station.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Although the vehicle was seen at the station, policemen at the counter declined comment on the accident. They referred <b><a href="http://www.punchng.com/metro-plus/school-bus-crushes-oau-student-to-death/">PUNCH Metro</a></b> to the Police Public Relations Officer, Mrs. Folasade Odoro.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
However, efforts to speak to the PPRO proved abortive as calls made to her phone did not connect.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>International interest in Nigeria's political transition and the planned transfer of power from the Jonathan-Sambo presidency to the Buhari-Osinbajo presidency billed for May 29 has risen in the United States as President Barack Obama now considers sending a high-powered U.S. delegation to the event, officials said Wednesday.</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
U.S. government sources said Mr. Obama is considering who might lead the American representatives to the event.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Besides, at least two US Ivy universities- Harvard and Yale - have since held special review sessions where scholars were invited from around the U.S. and the world to give lectures and seminars on the outcome of the Nigerian elections, focusing on the emergence of a former military Head of State, who is a Muslim from the North of Nigeria, and a Christian pastor, who is a law professor from the South as president-elect and vice president-elect respectively.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Three names are already being mentioned in official U.S. and diplomatic circles including Obama's wife, the American First Lady, Michelle; Vice President Joe Biden and the Secretary of State, John Kerry, as the head of the presidential delegation. From the U.S. Congress also, some of the senior members are said to be planning to attend the event including the Chairman of the US House of Representatives Sub Committee on Africa, Congressman Chris Smith.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The U.S. President normally announces a delegation to the presidential inaugurations of friendly nations being led by the Ambassador in that country. But in rare occasions, he picks very senior public officials as the head of delegation when he wants to underscore and emphasize a point of how the US highly regards the country or the circumstances at a given point in time.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Nigeria's Ambassador to the U.S., Ade Adefuye, said, "I have been told that there would be an unusually large American delegation that will attend the presidential inauguration on May 29".</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
He confirmed to journalists on Wednesday that he has also been told that a very senior member of the U.S. government is expected to lead the delegation, but that there was no confirmation yet.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The Nigerian Ambassador said he has been in consultations with the U.S. State Department on the matter, adding that President Goodluck Jonathan has already extended an invitation to the U.S. government.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
“We are following up with the US government to ensure a very large US presence at the inauguration,” the Ambassador said Tuesday in Washington DC.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Mr. Adefuye explained that “Nigeria's profile has been on the rise since after the election, the concession by Jonathan, and with the smooth transition that is going on”.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
From the U.S. government to the business sectors and think tanks, the level of excitement about the anticipated peaceful transfer of power in Nigeria and the outcome of the elections itself producing the Buhari-Osinbajo ticket from an opposition party, APC, has been quite widespread.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Some of the U.S. groups that have been showing keen interest to attend the inauguration and pressuring the U.S. government to send a very high-powered delegation are the Atlantic Council, and the Constituency for Africa-groups known to be very influential in Washington DC.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
A U.S. State Department source noted that after the elections, feelers were sent out to business groups, think tanks on interests in attending the Nigerian inauguration, and the “feedback has been very encouraging,” said the source.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
At the Yale University over the weekend, a group of theologians - the Oxford Study Group on World Christianity - had their annual meeting and participants disclosed that the Nigerian election was one of the major discussions this year.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
A top U.S. Professor who attended the meeting said the Study Group composed of leading scholars from around the world who considered it significant that the Nigerian elections produced a Pentecostal pastor as Vice President to a Moslem, who had earlier been perceived not to be religiously pluralistic. Last month also, the <b>Washington Post</b> had published a report on its faith pages on <b>“How a Pentecostal Law Professor Has Helped Reshape Nigerian Politics.”</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Earlier Harvard Africa-American Program had also held an academic review session on the Nigerian election further revealing how widely significant the issue has become here in the US.</div>

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>The Inspector-General of Police, Solomon Arase, on Wednesday directed the restoration of salaries due to a sergeant, Ajuma Ibrahim, attached to Lagos State Command with immediate effect, including payment of all arrears. The Sergeant had been sick for some time.</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
This issue was brought to light when <b style="text-decoration: underline;">Brekete Family</b>, a Reality Radio/TV Talk Show during yesterday’s edition made a live phone call to the IG to intimate him about the plight of the police officer whose salaries had not been paid since June 2013.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The IGP invited the Talk Show Crew to his office.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
A police statement said after due briefing from the Budget Office of the Force, it was discovered that the sergeant's inability to fill the required emolument forms and processing the same in compliance to regulations, led to the salary predicament.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The IGP immediately ordered the resolution of all the issues and restoration of her salary, Force spokesperson, Emmanuel Ojukwu, said in the statement.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The statement said the IG also directed the transfer of the sergeant from Lagos State Police Command to Force Headquarters Abuja and directed the Force Medical Officer to ensure she gets urgent access to needed and required medical attention.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The IGP assured the public that the Nigeria Police Force is responsive and responsible and that reported issues of neglect in personnel welfare as well as cases of injustice to members of the public would be promptly addressed.</div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;"><b>A former militant leader in the Niger Delta, Ebikabowei Victor Ben, a.k.a General Boyloaf, speaks to <a href="http://www.premiumtimesng.com/news/headlines/182496-interview-jonathan-is-a-disappointment-ex-militant-leader-boyloaf.html">PREMIUM TIMES</a>' Aderonke Ogunleye about the outgoing administration of President Goodluck Jonathan, and the incoming Muhammadu Buhari government. Boyloaf says the oil rich Niger Delta did not benefit from the Jonathan Presidency. He pledges to work with Mr. Buhari, and explains why former militants in the region did not carry out their threats to go to war if Mr. Jonathan lost the March 28 presidential election.</b></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; line-height: 22px; margin: 10px 0.5rem 0.3em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Excerpts:</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; line-height: 22px; margin: 10px 0.5rem 0.3em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<strong><span style="font-family: inherit;"><u>Do you think the South West and the Northern part of Nigeria were marginalized under the leadership of Goodluck Jonathan?</u></span></strong></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; line-height: 22px; margin: 10px 0.5rem 0.3em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Did people from the South-South benefit? If you come to Bayelsa State, can you count how many people benefited? That is the president’s state. When the APC was going for campaigns, they made a statement that there is a town that they didn’t have light, and people said Otuoke. Then (Gov. Chibuike) Amaechi said “I didn’t mention name”. But can you imagine that in that place there is no road? You see, what Jonathan did was that he favoured the North and West. Go to the Niger Delta and see. He favoured the North. He did Almajiri. Then go to the West you will see the railway, you will see all what he’s doing there. What is happening in Niger Delta? Nothing! It is better to go there and see things for yourself. Jonathan did not do anything for his people, for his region.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; line-height: 22px; margin: 10px 0.5rem 0.3em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<strong><span style="font-family: inherit;"><u>Maybe he planned to do that in his second term in the office?</u></span></strong></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; line-height: 22px; margin: 10px 0.5rem 0.3em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">I don’t believe in that. Charity begins at home. Jonathan was supposed to have started from his area because anything can happen the next day like what has happened now. So, what are you telling me? What about (late President Umaru) Yar’Adua? He did the airport in Katsina. He started from his own area. See, that is what Jonathan was supposed to do to. I have that belief right from time because they never wanted a Niger Delta person to be in government. We know that one because they will seal a lot of deals. I am a mariner. I know what is going on at the sea.  For instance, like we are talking about subsidy, we know the people that do deals.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; line-height: 22px; margin: 10px 0.5rem 0.3em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<strong><span style="font-family: inherit;"><u>What about the East West road?</u></span></strong></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; line-height: 22px; margin: 10px 0.5rem 0.3em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">If Buhari comes and if he wants the Niger Delta people to work with him, we will be ready to work with him. It was not Jonathan that started the East-West Road. Obasanjo started the road and then Yar’Adua inherited it. Also, after the death of Yar’Adua, Jonathan inherited it and it continued from there. Governance is continuous process. As Buhari comes on board he will also inherit it and finish it. That is my belief for sure.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; line-height: 22px; margin: 10px 0.5rem 0.3em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<strong><span style="font-family: inherit;"><u>Are you afraid that the incoming government will terminate the pipeline contract?</u></span></strong></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; line-height: 22px; margin: 10px 0.5rem 0.3em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Well, to me I am not afraid of anything. I am fully confident and if they terminate it the better for us because we will know that the government doesn’t want peace. So, that’s my own belief. I’m not afraid of anything. We will be ready to work with any person that has the Niger Delta people at heart. If you come with good ideas I think we will also work with you.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; line-height: 22px; margin: 10px 0.5rem 0.3em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<strong><span style="font-family: inherit;"><u>What if he terminates it?</u></span></strong></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; line-height: 22px; margin: 10px 0.5rem 0.3em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">We will see what will happen. God is not a man. If he terminates the contracts, I think there are other ways we can make it from. So, nobody cares.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; line-height: 22px; margin: 10px 0.5rem 0.3em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<strong><span style="font-family: inherit;"><u>How would you want to work with the incoming government?</u></span></strong></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; line-height: 22px; margin: 10px 0.5rem 0.3em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Well, we are one Nigeria. Since we have taken amnesty we are bound to take up and follow all the processes. If he (Buhari) wants to work with us we will be there to work with him. I think there is nobody that will come into this country that will not want the assistance of the Niger Delta. This is because that is where the major resource of this country comes from. So, you must need the Niger Delta people except you want division in the country. That is when you don’t have the love for the people of this nation.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; line-height: 22px; margin: 10px 0.5rem 0.3em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<strong><span style="font-family: inherit;"><u>What do you expect the Buhari Government to do about the Amnesty Programme? Some people are pushing that it should be suspended?</u></span></strong></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; line-height: 22px; margin: 10px 0.5rem 0.3em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">There is one thing you need to know. Let me tell you something – the production this time around compared to some years back is increasing and the amnesty is something that has come to stay. And if the government wants to scrap the amnesty it means the government doesn’t mean well for the nation. That’s my own belief. Let me tell you something – people were also inciting others that the government wants to scrap the amnesty. I have been in the Niger Delta trying to pacify them and telling them that it is a lie and that the government will work with them. They wanted to start destruction. There is no way that you will come out and say you will scrap the amnesty. How many people can you kill? How many? The Niger Delta terrain is very different and our struggle is very sacrosanct. That is one thing you get. So you cannot kill everybody. Look at Boko Haram – their area is a desert and it is easy for vehicles to move.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; line-height: 22px; margin: 10px 0.5rem 0.3em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">When you talk about our area it is not a desert. It is not passable by vehicle but strictly on water and by the time you use your chopper in the night and come and finish and go, what will happen in the night? All these are just sycophants that don’t mean well for this nation. With what I have seen in Buhari, he will want peace. That is my belief.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; line-height: 22px; margin: 10px 0.5rem 0.3em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<strong><span style="font-family: inherit;"><u>What if he insists on scrapping it, what will happen?</u></span></strong></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; line-height: 22px; margin: 10px 0.5rem 0.3em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Nothing will happen but God is not a man. We will remain in Nigeria and see how Nigeria will be. That is my belief.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; line-height: 22px; margin: 10px 0.5rem 0.3em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><strong><u>Will you go back to the creeks?</u></strong><br />Time shall tell.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; line-height: 22px; margin: 10px 0.5rem 0.3em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<strong><span style="font-family: inherit;"><u>Some people believe that the South West and the North worked against Goodluck Jonathan, what do you think?</u></span></strong></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; line-height: 22px; margin: 10px 0.5rem 0.3em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Really, our struggle is beyond the presidency and it was Yar’Adua that gave us amnesty. When he gave us amnesty there were some things he pronounced and some infrastructural development that he was supposed to put in place like the coastal road and all of a sudden he died. May his soul rest in peace! And when Jonathan came on board and you know just for the fact that he (Jonathan) is from Niger Delta, we just embraced him. But he is not the best. That is one thing that I will assure you. I believe more in Yar’Adua who was even on his sick bed. There was no way sycophants will go to Yar’Adua and say all sorts of rubbish. Yar’Adua will confirm from the end and know the real thing to do, not our brother Jonathan who surrounds himself with sycophants. And there is no way we will destroy his government because tomorrow other people from other ethnic regions will say the Niger Delta people are the ones responsible for the destruction of their own<br />government. So we just let everything like that. Since Buhari has emerged the winner, I think we will be there to work with him if he wants to work with us and put in place all what Yar’Adua was supposed to do. That is my own belief.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; line-height: 22px; margin: 10px 0.5rem 0.3em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<strong><span style="font-family: inherit;"><u>Would you work with Buhari himself?</u></span></strong></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; line-height: 22px; margin: 10px 0.5rem 0.3em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Well, in Niger Delta we need so many works to be done. In Niger Delta we have some kind of security programme we are supposed to indulge our people in to also protect the system especially the oil facility in the region. I think all these things are there and also the infrastructural development that Yar’Adua was supposed to put on. It will be the responsibility of Buhari to carry on what Yar’Adua started. So, there are so many things to be done.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; line-height: 22px; margin: 10px 0.5rem 0.3em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<strong><span style="font-family: inherit;"><u>You and other former militant leaders boasted that if Jonathan loses you will go to war. So, when are you going to war?</u></span></strong></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; line-height: 22px; margin: 10px 0.5rem 0.3em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Who will go to war? Is Nigeria for one ethnic region? Nigeria is for everybody. It is not for one ethnic region. When you want to oppress one region that is when the region will stand up for their right. But we are all Nigerians. Nobody will go to war. Who will go to war?</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; line-height: 22px; margin: 10px 0.5rem 0.3em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<strong><span style="font-family: inherit;"><u>What is your view on the outcome of the elections?</u></span></strong></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">Well, it has come and gone as you can see. Every man has its game to play but the only advice I will give this incoming government is that they should beware of sycophants and don’t listen to people that would create problems for the administration. With what I am seeing, you know people have been saying that during the time of Buhari, during his military era, when he took over from Shagari, the governors that were working with the South-South people were the people he jailed. So, people are saying that now as he is coming on board he wants to make sure that he deals with many of the South-South people in this government to recover so many things.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; line-height: 22px; margin: 10px 0.5rem 0.3em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<strong><span style="font-family: inherit;"><u>What, if he wants to scraps the Niger Delta Ministry?</u></span></strong></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; line-height: 22px; margin: 10px 0.5rem 0.3em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Well, we will watch what he is coming with, not that we will draft something and say you want to push it. Gone are those days when you just want to intimidate some people from the same region. Nobody is scared of anything. That is my belief.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; line-height: 22px; margin: 10px 0.5rem 0.3em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<strong><span style="font-family: inherit;"><u>Are we going to see you in a political party soon?</u></span></strong></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; line-height: 22px; margin: 10px 0.5rem 0.3em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">I am not a politician. I think any government that comes so long as they have the interest of the Niger Delta at heart, we will work with them.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; line-height: 22px; margin: 10px 0.5rem 0.3em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<strong><span style="font-family: inherit;"><u>Do you work with any particular party?</u></span></strong></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; line-height: 22px; margin: 10px 0.5rem 0.3em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">I work with everybody. For instance, when the APC came to my place in Bayelsa state, I received them. Even my former governor, Timipreye Silva, slept in my house. I received many of the APC people. I even gave them breakfast and dinner before they left. I also received PDP people. I sponsored my younger brother to contest the House of Assembly election, which was rigged. You know the system of Nigeria where people hijack ballot papers and work without even using the card readers and they went and thumb-printed. I think we are going to the tribunal.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; line-height: 22px; margin: 10px 0.5rem 0.3em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<strong><span style="font-family: inherit;"><u>How will the Niger Delta receive Jonathan now that he is coming back home?</u></span></strong></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; line-height: 22px; margin: 10px 0.5rem 0.3em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">To me, as a matter of fact Jonathan disappointed us. That is my own opinion. He disappointed us. To me, he disappointed us. He might be good to some people. There is nothing to tell if you get to my own state. We didn’t benefit. People like us did not benefit from his government. His government focused on one side. The Bayelsans did not benefit. It is only the Arugbos – that is Ondo State and Delta State – that benefited from his government. So, someone like me will not welcome him. I will not welcome him at all. The struggle continues.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; line-height: 22px; margin: 10px 0.5rem 0.3em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<strong><span style="font-family: inherit;"><u>Do you speak for a large number of people?</u></span></strong></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; line-height: 22px; margin: 10px 0.5rem 0.3em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">They are even more bitter than I am. Jonathan empowered many foot soldiers, the Niger Delta ex-agitators, foot soldiers. But in Bayelsa, he didn’t empower people and that is the state he comes from.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; line-height: 22px; margin: 10px 0.5rem 0.3em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<strong><span style="font-family: inherit;"><u>What of the importation of oil?</u></span></strong></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; line-height: 22px; margin: 10px 0.5rem 0.3em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">We know about the importation; we know how they killed the refinery system just for them to be importing products. Government should be subsidizing for them. All those types of bad deals we know. We are not kids; they are just telling people they are increasing fuel price. That is rubbish. We know what is going on. I am a full mariner. We know what is going on. They know what they were doing. When Jonathan stopped all these things, that was when they were mad. Look, these people import 30 per cent of fuel into the country and they know their landing costs. As soon as they get to the country they will queue. Sometimes, they don’t come with the 50, 000 metric tonnes. They will come with 30,000 metric tonnes and sign for the 50,000 metric tonnes. They will look for a tank farm pump into it and take 10,000 aside to the neighbouring country and sell.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; line-height: 22px; margin: 10px 0.5rem 0.3em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">That is what is done. So, the masses don’t know because they are not in the river. We know the deals they are doing. So, when Jonathan came and saw these things and stopped them they were mad. They are ready to throw Jonathan. We know everything going on. So, that’s the deal they’ve been doing. Even Diezani (Petroleum Resources Minister) that you are talking about saw all the rubbish they are doing and she sacked some people and stopped so many things they were doing. That is why they are accusing Diezani. She didn’t do anything. She is from my region. They thought we are fools. Who are the major beneficiaries of the oil blocks? It is the northerners and a few from East and West. The northerners are the major owners of oil blocks. Is it their region? What are you telling us? Are we fools? Were we born to be a second class citizen in this our country?</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; line-height: 22px; margin: 10px 0.5rem 0.3em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<strong><span style="font-family: inherit;"><u>What is your impression about those stealing the oil?</u></span></strong></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; line-height: 22px; margin: 10px 0.5rem 0.3em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Nobody is stealing. Can you steal your property? Who are the people stealing oil? Does the oil belong to them? I don’t believe in the saying that people are stealing oil.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; line-height: 22px; margin: 10px 0.5rem 0.3em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<strong><span style="font-family: inherit;"><u>What about the Petroleum Resources Minister, Diezani Alison-Madueke?</u></span></strong></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; line-height: 22px; margin: 10px 0.5rem 0.3em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">No matter her stand she is from Niger Delta. Even if she didn’t take care of her people we don’t care but sometimes Niger Delta people unite and I believe Diezani is a trap set for the Nigerian Government. They believe the Buhari Administration would want to deal with her and so she is like a trap, and that is my own belief. I have heard people talk about it and if you are a northerner in that position if he leaves they will not touch him. What about that man Diezani took over from? What is his name again? I think he is dead now. They did a lot of deals, oil blocks and all the rest. People are aware of it and even the northerners. When Yar’Adua was even sick, even dead, they forged his signatures and did all those things, nothing happen. So, Niger Delta people are not fools.</span></div>

Anyaoku To Buhari: Nigerians Have High Expectations In You

<div style="font-family: '';">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: '';">
<b>The former Secretary-General of the Commonwealth, Chief Emeka Anyaoku, yesterday, told the President-elect General Muhammadu Buhari that the expectations of Nigerians from the incoming government were high, urging him not to fail the people.</b></div>
<div style="font-family: '';">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: '';">
The expectations, Anyaoku said, were hinged on the campaign promises of the president-elect.</div>
<div style="font-family: '';">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: '';">
Speaking to journalists during his congratulatory visit to Buhari at the Defence House in Abuja, Anyaoku also extolled the virtues of the incoming president, saying he is a disciplined man who is averse to corruption.</div>
<div style="font-family: '';">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: '';">
He said: “I had useful discussions with President-elect, congratulated him on his victory and told him he's coming in as president on a very high wave of expectations throughout the country. I also told him that the high expectations are based on the promises he made during his campaign to the people but more importantly on the general perception of his character.</div>
<div style="font-family: '';">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: '';">
“He is perceived as a man with very strong sense of discipline, a man who is truly averse to corruption, a man whose lifestyle has been frugal not ostentatious or opulent and above all a man who is very committed to the welfare of the masses. I believe that if his administration reflects these qualities that the country’s challenges and problems would be effectively tackled.”</div>
<div style="font-family: '';">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: '';">
Asked by journalists to offer a diplomatic advice to the incoming government with regards to the xenophobic attacks in South Africa, Anyaoku said the president-elect should continue to work with the South Africa president.</div>
<div style="font-family: '';">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: '';">
He advised Nigerians living in South Africa to be law-abiding in their host country.</div>
<div style="font-family: '';">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: '';">
He said: “I think that Nigeria’s relations with the world at the moment is quite good. We have had a tiff with the South African situation but not with the South African government. I think the xenophobic attacks on foreigners in South Africa has been condemned by the South African government.</div>
<div style="font-family: '';">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: '';">
“I believe that the way President Jonathan has handled the issue has been very good. So I would suggest that the incoming president will continue the personal relationship with the President of South Africa so that when incidents like that occur, the two governments will have a dialogue.”</div>

<div style="font-family: '';">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: '';">
Buhari gave the insight to how he became a converted democrat during a congratulatory visit by a delegation from Taraba State. Buhari said: “I will tell you what made me a multi party democrat. In 1991, after coming out of detention, I was sitting at home and the Soviet Union collapsed. They were the world power fighting the western world. They had more sophisticated weapons, but something happened.</div>
<div style="font-family: '';">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: '';">
“There was confusion and everybody went away. Today, there are 18 countries from the former Soviet Union. That was when I believed that multi party democratic system is a superior form of governance and that is why I joined democracy.</div>

<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: '';">
“We have made a big stride this year and I assure you, God willing, if we survive the next four years, Nigerians will be in a position to confidently raise their head and elect their representatives and leaders.</div>
<div style="font-family: '';">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: '';">
“They will choose those they want as their representatives from local government, states and to the centre. I will fight for free, fair and credible election because that is why I remain in politics. I thank you very much for the sacrifices you have made to make sure we succeeded.”</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>The President-elect, General Muhammadu Buhari, has said the advent of the technology of card reader and the will of the Nigerians have redefined the electoral system in Nigerian.</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
He said this while playing host to a delegation from Taraba State led by the APC Governorship candidate in the April 11 election, Senator Aisha Jummai Alhassan.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
He said: “I think that 2015 will go down in Nigeria political history as a glorious year. Nigerians have deliberately understood what is multi party democracy. But we thank God for technology, PVC and card reader and the insistence of constituencies to make sure they are used.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
“However, in two political zones where they were subverted, the people wanted to vote, but they were not allowed to vote and they continued with what they used to do in their party offices or their sitting rooms, where they would write the results, go to radio house and television house and announce the result and say whoever does not accept the result should go to court.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
“How many people can go to court when they are struggling to get the next day’s meal? Where will they get the millions to give to those Senior Advocates of Nigeria. I was able to do it because of the goodwill of Nigeria which again demonstrated itself this year.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
“People agreed that I am not a very rich man, but I was lucky that Nigerians believe in me and they put their strength together, voted and made sure that their votes count. I say thanks to the technology. Please continue to support those among you that you feel will go and work for your state and for the country. I assure you that the government of the APC, when eventually put in place, will be a competent Nigerian government.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
“We will never betray the people because they have risked everything. Some even lost their lives in this course to make sure that APC succeed and that we have a leadership in place that they can trust and that is what multi party democracy is all about.”</div>
