21 Women Reveal What It Was Like To Have Sex With A Large Or Small Penis

Most men are conscious of their penis size. But as they say, it’s how you perform in bed, right?

1. Ah, so she can take the big ones I’m into fisting, so even the largest penises are no problem. Actually, neither are small penises, I just get the guy to fist me. 2. To her, bigger isn’t better I lost my virginity to a man with a huge penis. But I didn’t know it at the time. Watching porn made me uncomfortable so I always just read erotica. So he was very proud of his huge cock, and I don’t think he could figure out why I wasn’t amazed by it. For my part, I couldn’t figure out why sex was so damn painful. I could barely open my jaw far enough to the get the thing in my mouth. We could only have sex in missionary position because everything else hurt so badly. I was not particularly impressed with intercourse (or giving oral, for that matter). The rest of my relationships have been with men with normal size penises. I found out, holy shit, having sex with them is fucking easy. I don’t have to use a cup of lube to have intercourse or use an ice pack on my face after giving a blow job. I don’t get what the big deal is for big dicks. Give me a normal dick any day. 3. Be confident in bed I posted a while back about dating a guy with a micropenis. For a while he avoided sex, which made me believe he wasn’t sexually attracted to me. Really, he was just embarrassed by how small it was. The actual sex was terrible, but I think a large part of it centered on his lack of confidence. He kept apologizing, then going soft, then slipping out, and it was just stressful sex. I think we still could have had fun if he had not gone into it thinking it was going to be a failure. 4. Be comfortable with your penis I’ve never dealt with a micropenis, but I did deal with one that was not much longer or girthier than my pinky. My experience with the dude’s personality was much worse than with the dick – I think he was really self conscious about it, so when we were fooling around he would say things about how big his cock was and ask me to beg for his big dick… it was kind of awkward because I think we both knew it was smaller than average, but he needed to hear that it was big to feel good about himself. He was also really sweet and attentive outside of the bedroom, so it turned into this weird Dr. Jekyl/Mr Hyde situation. The actual sex was disappointing, but again I think it was partly due to his insecurities 5. Too big, no blow I don’t know how all these women are talking about preferring big ones for blowjobs! I had been hooking up with a guy for a week or so before it went THAT far…I was willing and a bit eager to give him head, until he pulled the damn kraken out of his pants. only time I’ve ever stopped, looked someone dead in the eye, and asked, “what in the HELL do you expect me to do with that?!” his girth was so huge that I literally couldn’t fit him in my mouth. sex was painful and awkward. we didn’t see each other after that, and if my vagina ever becomes animate I assure you it (she?) will thank me for not continuing with him. 6. “The old run and cum” I’m from England. Muscular man’s man American guy comes to my university (except he’s really short) and takes a liking to me. He and a friend were over mine one night and the friend left. The American guy and I ended up on the bed kissing for a while with him on top. I started trying to reach for his cock but couldn’t find it. It was actually giving me a mini panic attack. I told him to get off and lay down so I could be on top (in my head I figured it would be easier then). Still couldn’t find it. When I did find it it was 2 inches or less, erect. As I hold this little penis he shouts at me “SUCK IT” like he has the biggest dick in the world. I honestly didn’t want to make him feel bad about himself, so tried to continue like nothing was abnormal. I go down there and he lets out a large and disgusting fart and says “Mmm, do you like that?” I screamed and told him to get out, to which he and I started arguing. He called me a few things. “Cocktease” being one that I distinctly remember. He then ran into my ensuite bathroom and locked the door so I couldn’t get in. In the mean time I called my friend who was also living in the flat. He was in there for a while then ran out. When my friend and I checked the bathroom there was semen everywhere. Big penis? I like a longer dick, but not TOO wide, because that can be really painful (I’ve been told I have a smaller vagina any way). I literally have to be able to sink the Titanic in my pants before I can take a dick. 7. Make it enjoyable I’ve been with a guy that has a large or well above average penis and a guy who’s penis was below average. The big one was fun for blow jobs but sex hurt until I got wet enough or I guess, stretched enough. The small one was easier to take all of into my mouth and I didn’t notice anything off during sex. It went in easily and he knew a lot of stuff to do with it. I really think size doesn’t matter. It was all enjoyable. 8. Pleasure over size I’ve had moderately small to moderately/very large: I generally prefer larger, but a lot of guys with big dicks think that all they need to be good at sex is a big dick. I’d rather take a guy with an average dick who cares about my pleasure anyday. 9. A bruised cervix sounds terrible One of my exes was around 8.5-9″ and a big girth. I’m 5′. It was pretty uncomfortable since it took a while to actually fit it in (even with copious amounts of lube) and I was even bearing tears on a few occasions along with a bruised cervix. It wasn’t that pleasant, yet then again if we slowed it down or something then maybe it wouldn’t have been that bad. It was fun giving him head, though! 10. Looks like it’s confidence I’ve had both, honestly neither were that life altering in either a good or bad way. For very large (mostly in width), we seemed to have the ideal situation of him being too large and me being too tight so while when it was good – it was very good, it didn’t last long without slipping out and after trying many different positions to see what works best, we ended up giving up the sex was just too much work. For very small, it was actually better than the very large because what he lacked in size, he made up for in speed. He did a lot with what was given to him and didn’t seem embarrassed at all. So for tips – if you’re very large, lots of foreplay, make sure she’s super wet and she spreads those legs. For very small, make sure you’re extra rough to make up for your size in speed. It goes a long way. 11. Hair on the shaft…? The worst thing about a short dick is the hair on the shaft and the fact that most guys are super insecure so they tend to prematurely come. The worst thing about a big dick is that the guy often thinks that’s all he needs to bring to the relationship. 12. Be good at something else, too I dated a guy with a legitimate micro-peen. He was very upfront about it the first time we made it to the “making out” stage. I wasn’t quite to the point where I thought we might be long term, so I have to admit that I may have proceeded more out of curiosity than actual sexual feelings. During that first bout (there were several, and you’ll understand why in a minute) he was obviously very weary of letting me get near “the area.” He would caress my hand and guide it away any time it got close to the zipper zone. He was so suave about it that it was easily ignored, though. It helped that he was a level 10 kisser and so in-tune with reading my cues. As things progressed, I found myself fully undressed while he had everything intact (I’m telling you, he was a smooth motherfucker.) I don’t even remember how, but he guided me to the carpet and proceeded to perform acts of god on my lady region. I believe years of not being able to have conventional sex have given him oral superpowers. I had orgasms too numerous to count and I’m convinced I partially blacked out at one point (before this night, I would have seriously called bullshit on that actually being a thing, but goddamn if it isn’t real.) Long story short, I never did get to see the goods that first night. I remember feeling a little embarrassed the next morning for the amount of thanks and praise I gave him immediately following the last, exhausting orgasm (I’m talking a good 20 minutes worth of “OMFG, you are the most amazing man on Earth” type thing.) We did attempt a penetration on one drunken night, but it just wouldn’t happen. The size was a serious issue, but the bigger problem (no pun intended) was that he just didn’t get conventionally hard. It was maybe…less soft? But definitely not hard. So, it just didn’t happen. Anyway, my experience with an extremely small penis was pretty positive because the guy took amazing steps to compensate. He’s a pretty good guy to boot, so I hope he someday finds a woman who appreciates the hell out of his skills. 13. Romance the hell out of ‘em I’m bi, but until I was seventeen or eighteen I thought that I was only interested in girls. When I was 19, I started dating a boy and we slept together five times before my hymen broke. I had just assumed it had busted at some point during all the finger banging, heh. Or that I was one of those women who didn’t have one. His dick was about three inches long and kind of skinny. But I didn’t know any better, I was used to fingers anyway. Dated another guy much later with a dick thicker around than my wrist, probably 8 inches long. There was no such thing as quickies. He had to romance me if he wanted to put that thing inside me. 14. Sex is more than just size I had a partner who was basically a mushroom head connected to a pile of pubes when soft (I think he was 2 inches hard) as a result of a twisted testicle he was born with and had to get surgery for. He was also unable to orgasm from another person manipulating his penis or fucking, as much as he did enjoy that because of the surgery he had to have when he was a kid. He was skilled/determined orally, good with his fingers and though he had no problem making me orgasm, many sexual positions were a total no-go because of his size which was at times disappointing. Overall though he was fine in bed because he cared about pleasuring and found other ways to do that. My first penis in vagina sexual experience was with what I consider a large penis (9 inches at least and fat) and I remember it being difficult to work with at times. By size alone it wasn’t a huge satisfier and he was so inexperienced there were no orgasms happening for me at all, so even though in theory sex should have been better, it wasn’t. A big dick does not mean a great partner. So much of sex is about touch, anticipation, generosity, comfort levels, tenderness and filth… things that have nothing to do with penis size and everything to do with the energy between two people. Also anyone who laughs at a guy for his dick is pretty shitty… It’s obviously something that a person has no control over and if you care that little about their feelings you should perhaps not fuck them. Just saying. 15. More to sex than size Having been across the penis spectrum, I just want to say that penises are awesome. All shapes and sizes are amazing. The best thing you can do with them, is to make sure they are attached to a great person. There is so much more to sex than size. 16. She likes ‘em big Had both. Small is great for anal. Also, if they are not too self-conscious about it, regular sex can be great. It has been my experience that men with smaller penises make up for it with knowing what to do with it, and knowing what to do with their hands and mouths too. Big penises are just as great. If they guy doesn’t just rely on size, and is gentle in the beginning, the sex is awesome. I personally prefer bigger penises. I really enjoy my vagina feeling “full” during sex and I even enjoy a little bit of pain once I’m turned on enough. I like the soreness I feel for a while after. It reminds me of the sex and I just get turned on all over again. 17. Porn is not the way Lost my virginity to a guy with a smaller than average penis in girth. It was about 5 inches long but really thin, not exactly sure how thin around, maybe 12 centimetres? (just used my dress measuring tape to estiamate) Anyway, he was really over-zealous for me. it was our first time, but he was nearly a porn addict so he wanted to try all this weird shit, like wiggling 3 fingers inside me like an octopuss, lifting my legs up, lifting me up in the air, it was awful. I was so self concious and it only got worse. I felt it, but it didn’t feel good, it felt like it was going in but produced no pleasure for me whatsoever. Then to make it even more awkward, he kept asking me if he was hurting me, like in a dirty talk sort of way, if it was ‘stretching you out’ etc etc. Just so fucking awkward. He was my boyfriend for a couple years and I wasn’t that into sex until I had someone else. I then had a boyfriend with a very large penis, really fun to play with and it made me feel like a porn star when i was giving him head but it could be painful at times for both of us. Took us a long time to find condoms that would fit him properly, and he could never enter me completely. We had a healthy sex life but it always took a couple days of recovery for me, which sucked. Luckily I married someone who is the right size for me. You find the dick size that’s just right, you lock it down, like a horny goldilocks. 18. What a great love story My very large penis stories aren’t that interesting. It’s the usual song and dance of “it was uncomfortable, had to start slow, too much bottoming out.” So I guess I’ll tell my small penis story. I REALLY liked the guy. We’d been on a few very successful dates and I had butterflies when I thought about him. He had unusually colored eyes and intense eyebrows, he was a foreigner. We’d gone into his bedroom and we both knew where this was leading. He took his pants off and there it was, the smallest penis I’ve ever seen in real life. I didn’t get to measure it or anything but if I’m being generous I would guess it was pretty close to 3 1/2 inches, fully erect. I definitely had a moment of pause, I wasn’t expecting this… But he didn’t hesitate or apologize or wince about it and that’s what spurred me on, his own confidence. The sex was awkward. My previous two partners had both had about 8 inches and I had grown used to a different style of fucking. I was trying to bounce around and thrust as I had done with the oversized wangs of my past, but that wasn’t working with only a few inches to stay atop of. But I learned. The sex got better. I discovered that the rocking, grinding motion I had to adapt to to stay penetrated by this smaller penis led to amazing friction on my clit. No, I couldn’t do aerobic pornstar sex moves anymore but this newfound closeness, sliding our bodies together, grasping and pressing close, was amazing. I had my first orgasms during intercourse with this man and his small penis. And he never apologized or flinched. Neither of us ever referred to as a “small” penis, or otherwise.. And we both shared many, many orgasms pressed tightly together and I stayed with him for over four years. When it ended, it had nothing to do with his penis. Sadly, we fell out of love. But for awhile I thought that very small penis was going to be the last one I was ever with. 19. Unicorn penis I ‘ve had adventures with both. One gentleman was extremely handsome and my friend’s brother so we were set up and told to try and make this work. But when we went to have sex and he was quite small and he cried during sex and told me shameful story about his friends pantsing him at a party and everyone laughing. I tried to be comforting and he finished crying then we did more shots and went through another round of hot sad guy/small junk sex. Never spoke again. At far as large dicks go, there are two kinds. The large ugly awkward penises that look unappealing from every angle. It almost feels worse because it’s so ugly. The second option is like the unicorn of dicks. It’s beautiful and not all mangled looking and the owner understands its size and worth and uses it appropriately. They’re not trying to jam it in your butt or force it down your throat. Unicorn-penis is gentle and accommodating 20. Her heart shattered, and so did his confidence I was going at it pretty hot and heavy with a guy I really liked. I didn’t want to rush this so as he was fingering me I told him I didn’t want to go past that point. This is when, as he’s still seemingly fingering me, he props himself up on both arms and asks me what I mean. It was at that moment my heart shattered. This perfect guy was carrying nothing bigger than a baby dill in his pants. 21. No pencil or micro peen for this one I’ve experienced both, smallest being around 4 inches, give or take, and quite thin. The two of the largest were about 6.5-7 inches and very girthy, the other being about 8-9 but an average circumference. The 4 inch one absolutely almost never got me off. I think in the year and a half I was with the guy, I came around 5 times from vaginal intercourse, the anal was good though and I got off a lot through that. The guy with the girthy penis was the first and only guy to make me finish the first time sleeping with them (well it was the second, but it was about 30 minutes after our first round because he came quickly and wasn’t satisfied that I hadn’t finished in the first place.) That was only a fling and we slept together a few more times after that but definitely not a keeper despite the amazing sex. The guy with the longer, average girth hurt a lot. I’m a pretty tall girl, 5’10, but that’s a lot of dog for my bun. He also really enjoyed fucking hard and fast so my cervix felt like scrambled eggs every time. So I cut it off with him after a few weeks. Drop your comments

Boko Haram On Fire: Takes Over Military Headquaters and the 2nd Biggest Town in Adamawa

Fighting between Nigerian troops and Boko Haram insurgents escalated in Mubi, Mararaba Mubi and Uba all in Adamawa State on Wednesday. Mubi, the second largest town in the state and host of two high institutions, was the worst hit. A parent, Ahmad Sajoh, whose daughter is studying at the Adamawa State University, said that as of 2pm on Wednesday, the police barracks in the Government Reservation Area was overrun by the insurgents while the prison in the town was blown open. According to Sahara Reporters, the dreaded Boko Haram insurgents took over the headquarters of the 234 battalion in the town. The situation is so bad that banks are on the run, moving their cash to the state capital, Yola. Sources say Boko Haram decided to launch a massive attack on Uba in the Michika-Madagali area of the state in response to sustained aerial bombardment of their hideouts by security forces... According to Punch, casualty figures could not be obtained as of 8pm but the development forced the state government to impose 24-hour curfew on the affected communities. Residents said they saw a large number of insurgents at Mararaba, about seven kilometres from Mubi. Sajoh told Punch that his daughter called to inform him about the development in Mubi. He said, “This morning, I got a call from my daughter who is a 200-level student. She was hysterical. I was in Abuja for a meeting, but her information forced me to head back to Yola immediately. “I ordered her to leave the hostel and join her cousins to escape the town. I called my father who confirmed the story. By the time I arrived at Yola airport, the town had fallen to the insurgents. “My parents are trapped while my daughter and her cousins are missing. We have lost contact for six hours.” Sajoh, who was director of Press and Public Affairs to former Governor Murtala Nyako, added: "Mallam Iliyasu of the Bursary Department of the state university, who is trapped in the town said by 2pm, the Police Barracks in the GRA was overrun by the insurgents, the prison was blown open while fighting was going on at the army barracks. The IDP camp at Lamorde area was thrown into confusion. “The new rulers of the town had issued a decree banning entry and exit to the town. Students who trooped to the motor park were stranded with most taking refuge in any house that could welcome them. “The barracks are the least safe locations in the town. So far, there are no reported cases of killings or abductions. But fear and apprehension have taken over.” There are fears of humanitarian crisis if the town "fall" into the hands of the insurgents. A fleeing resident, Joshua Gajere, said several people might have been killed during the shootings that lasted for almost two hours in Uba and other villages. He said, "We are in serious trouble as these boys (Boko Haram) have taken over our towns, splitting into groups and advancing towards Mararaba, Mubi and Vintim, the home town of the Chief of Defence Staff, Air Marshal Alex Badeh. They made the Nigerian troops to retreat to Mubi". Gajere added, “As I am talking to you now, residents are scampering for safety. ‘Mubi has now become a ghost of itself as people in their hundreds are fleeing for their lives."

I will Beat You to Death Anywhere I Catch You –Tompolo warns Festus Keyamo

This is what you get in a country where the Presidency worships militants and gives them contracts: Popular Lagos-based lawyer, Festus Keyamo, has petitioned the State Security Services and the Nigerian Police over an alleged threat to his life by an ex-militant leader popularly known as Tompolo. In the letter dated October 29, and also copied to the President and the Delta State governor, Keyamo said that Tompolo threatened to “beat him to death” for wading into a perceived fraud in the just concluded Delta State local government election. Keyamo said: “At exactly 10:13p.m. on Tuesday, October 28, 2014, I received a telephone call from one Mr. Government Ekpemupolo (alias Tompolo)…, “We have been acquaintances in the past, so I know his numbers. After reaffirming that he is Tompolo when I picked his call, he went straight to the point by informing me that he wishes to inform me that he and his ‘boys’ will kill me by beating me to death or shooting me anywhere they can find me. And that the hunt for me is on. “His exact words in pidgin English was ‘we dey look for you. Anywhere we see you, whether for Lagos or Abuja or Warri, we go beat you die or we go shoot you.’ “He said he would kill me because I have decided to take up the matter involving his blood brother, Mr. George Ekpemupolo, who was used to illegally substitute another candidate, Mr. Weyinmi Omadeli (48 hours to the election) in the Warri South-West L.G.A elections that were concluded last Saturday in Delta State.” On Tuesday, Mr. Keyamo had petitioned Emmanuel Uduaghan, the Delta State governor, over the latter’s “illegal substitution” of Mr. Omadeli, a Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, candidate for Warri South-West at the council poll with George Ekpemuopolo, Tompolo’s younger brother. “On this issue concerning Warri South-West L.G.A, I have no choice but to cry out, because your decision is capable of igniting a crisis that will affect all of us. The decision was taken whimsically and it is unjust, unfair, illegal, and ungodly,” Mr. Keyamo had written to the governor. “Consequently, it is unacceptable and will be challenged legally and politically.” Mr. Keyamo said Tompolo told him that nobody had ever challenged his authority in Delta State. “I asked Tompolo five times whether, he was, in fact, threatening my life over an open line and he said nobody in the country can do anything about it by the time I am dead,” said Mr. Keyamo. “Co-incidentally, exactly three minutes after Tompolo dropped his line, His Excellency, Governor Uduaghan called me at exactly 10.16pm, and I reported to him what just transpired between Tompolo and myself. “The Governor promised to speak with him, but that cannot be reassuring enough, and I know the remedy in law against an intended murderer is not to beg him but to ignite the criminal justice system against him, no matter how comatose that system is.” Mr. Keyamo said that Tompolo had the “instrument to kill human beings”. “I know the subject of this petition, Tompolo, is a favoured citizen of this government, and I am not. I know Tompolo is close to those in power at the moment, whereas I am an ordinary citizen. I know Tompolo has money and influence (which are factors that are widely acknowledged to aid a suspect walk away with murder in Nigeria), but I have none of these. “In the circumstance, I am making this petition public so that when you refuse to attend to my complaint and outcry, the ordinary people of this country will, at least, know from where my death came and I will not join the long list of unresolved murders. My killer, should, at least be known.”

The Journey Begins in Rivers: PDP Needs To Sit Up

First of all I am pleased to confirm to you all that in the early hours of Friday the 24th of October, 2014; Prince Tonye Princewill received his PDP Nomination and Expression of Interest forms, to contest the Governorship primaries in Rivers State. To clear all doubt; his PDP forms were delivered to him at his Abuja residence, not by old men, or a paid crowd; but by responsible youths. Hungry for the type of change and leadership we really need in Rivers State. With the commitment and help of those who truly love Rivers state, this change will come. This is a new beginning. The opportunity to retrace the path of our dear state is here. The journey ahead will be tough, but I assure you, it will be worth it. Tonye urges his supporters to focus on the uncertainties ahead and not the certainties behind. Others can enjoy being Goliaths, but we should just remain like Davids. We can’t overemphasize the fact that politics is too important to be left to politicians. This is gradually sinking into the minds of many, making our Nigerian politics more a one man, one vote scenario. People matter; we in Team Princewill have always known that and now the politicians all over will know it too. The just concluded APC rally was attended by many thousands of people. Speculations have it that the well attended rally, would intimidate Prince Tonye and his fellow PDP members. Prince Tonye Princewill is clearly stating that, "We are not. Instead we are actually encouraged and happy to see how the people's interest in politics is increasing". “Some of us know how to fill up a stadium; but the question on the ground is how we impact the lives of the citizens. How can we fill up their empty stomachs? How many real jobs could the Millions of Naira spent to hold that rally have created? No wonder some jobless politicians prefer war. This is their political equivalent of a security vote.” “Paying thousands to gather, flying in political leaders from all over, throwing around political insults and attacks will not change the fortune of your Rivers people. Commitment to the people is primary and cannot be clouded with fanfare and bad language. We are here to improve the future of Rivers State politics! We are here to give the people a voice! Politics here has to start to work for the people and we are here to make sure that happens. For me though, the rally is a message to PDP that politics is no longer business as usual.” On the state of the party in the state, the Prince wants to make it clear that the attempt to disregard our cultural diversity in Rivers state will not end well and will only spell doom for PDP's prospects. All attempts to drive this point home have yielded no result, so as a Kalabari Prince and a major stakeholder in the state, the Prince wishes to sound this final call. "Respect our people's wishes and level the playing field or else, the stakeholders of the state will be forced to do it for you." "We have faced a similar situation in the past. The record books are there to show how it was reversed. The history of Rivers state is clear. Goliath never wins David. A word is enough for the wise. Let the number of aspirants and their cultural distribution, be a marker. Real leaders make tough decisions. It is time to see who the real leaders are.” Wabiye Idoniboye-Obu

85,500 At Amaechi's Rally: PDP Is Now Buried In Rivers State

•APC Commends 85,500 that thronged PH Mega Rally to celebrate Amaechism The Rivers State Chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) is pleased to announce the formal burial of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the State. We warmly congratulate the 85,500 patriotic citizens of the State who empowered us to make this announcement through their physical presence at APC Port Harcourt Mega Rally held last Saturday, 25th October, 2014, at Adokiye Amiesimaka Stadium. It was a rally during which 85,500 people struggled to see the man described as the hero of the new political dispensation in Nigeria – Rt. Hon. Chibuke Rotimi Amaechi, Governor of Rivers State and Chairman of the Nigeria Governors’ Forum (NGF). It was a day set aside to celebrate the epochal judgement of the Supreme Court that stands as a mystery to many political watchers – a verdict which ensured that Rt. Hon. Amaechi, who was denied his victory by the then PDP leadership, was handed over the mantle of leadership of Rivers State on 25th October, 2007. Instead of the 50,000 expected by the organisers, over 85,500 eventually attended the rally, with 46,000 seated, 25,000 standing and 14,500 standing outside the stadium main bowl but participated fully by following the programme through the giant television sets and loudspeakers placed at strategic places outside the stadium by the oragnisers. Instructively, most of these great sons and daughters of Rivers State that attended the historic rally sponsored themselves to the event, thus practically demonstrating their great love for Amaechi and APC. Joining this large throng of Rivers people to celebrate seven years of Amaechism were many other Nigerians, including all APC presidential aspirants – a former Head of State, Gen. Muhammadu Buhari (rtd.); ex-Vice-President Atiku Abubakar; the Governor of Kano State, Musa Rabiu Kwankwaso; his Imo State counterpart, Rochas Okorocha and LEADERSHIP Publisher, Sam Nda-Isaiah. Also in attendance were the National Chairman of the APC, Chief John Odigie-Oyegun; Governor of Kwara State, Abdulfatah Ahmed, and his predecessor, Senator Bukola Saraki; as well as a former Governor of Ekiti State, Dr. Kayode Fayemi, and his predecessor, Engr. Segun Oni, the Deputy National Chairman, South, of APC; lawmakers and other eminent personalities. The event was used to celebrate the seven golden years of the administration of Governor of Amaechi in Rivers State that witnessed unprecedented growth in all sectors of the economy of the state, particularly in the areas of Education, Health, Agriculture, roads and other physical infrastructure, the formal commissioning of one of the best stadia in Nigeria, the 46-seater Adokiye Amiesimaka Stadium Complex that boasts world-class facilities for football, swimming, handball and several other sports. The climax of the event was the formal burial of PDP in Rivers State, with Hon. Emmanuel Deeyah Nwika, one-time Deputy Speaker of Rivers State House of Assembly with Gov Amaechi as the Speaker then, one-time Commissioner of Finance and two-time member of the Federal House of Representatives from 2003 to 2011, decamping from PDP to APC with the 5,800 remnants of PDP in Rivers State. According to Hon. Deeyah Nwika, “with today’s event, PDP ceases to exist in Rivers State probably only in the minds of few hungry fellows still singing the praises of confused Chief Nyesom Wike whose vision is just to take Rivers State to the days of insecurity that we have passed.” Rivers APC deeply appreciates all the goodwill messages received at the epochal rally and fully associates itself with the following words of Governor Amaechi at the rally: “They (PDP leaders) have made too much noise. President Jonathan says we exist only on posters and billboards. So, we brought a large billboard for him. If the President is not watching the rally, they will give him security report.This stadium is 46,000 seating capacity. I built it. It was built by me. One of them campaigning for Rivers governorship (Chief Nyesom Wike, the immediate past Minister of State for Education) was the contractor to do the roads. He abandoned the roads and took N3 billion and left. Now, he wants to be governor. I challenge them to an integrity test. Any of them from Abuja to Rivers State, I challenge them to an integrity test. I have worked with them. I have their records and their (records) are in the Office of the Governor. We have developed 750 megawatts, but the problem is Federal Government not allowing us to distribute electricity. We were to give Port Harcourt water. As I am talking to you today, the Minister of Finance (Dr. Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala) has refused to move the file again back to Executive Council for approval, so that you can have water. They do not care for you. They want you to die of water-borne diseases. Punish them with your votes. Punish PDP with your votes. He (Jonathan) is our son; why can’t we have water? The problem we have is that the EFCC (Economic and Financial Crimes Commission) is no longer working. Corruption is at its industrial scale. Thieves are thieves because we now have an industry called corruption.” We join the Rivers Governor to laud members of the National Assembly from the State who have wisely chosen to stand by our Governor. We are happy that eight members of the House of Representatives from the State moved with him to APC, while the rest betrayed him and will surely be punished by Rivers people with their votes in 2015. We also join the NGF Chairman in thanking Rivers people for keeping him as Governor and standing by him. We fully associate ourselves with Amaechi’s words when he stated: “They said the reason why the President (Jonathan) is not performing in Rivers State is because he is quarrelling with the Governor of Rivers State. Okay, what is the quarrel between the Governor of Akwa Ibom State and the Governor of Cross River State that the road from Akwa Ibom State to Cross River State is abandoned? Are they quarrelling too? It is more of lack of performance. "When the President (Jonathan) spoke in Benin, he spoke in a stadium that was less than 20,000-seating capacity. When TAN (Transformation Ambassadors of Nigeria) held their rally in Port Harcourt, they held it at the 16,000-capacity Elekahia Stadium and this was a South-South rally. The rally in Benin was South-South. The rally in Port Harcourt was South-South. This one (APC mega rally) is Port Harcourt rally. Do you remember Ebola? To show you how much the President hates us, he visited Lagos; did he visit Rivers State? He did not care. He wanted all of us to die, but I took it as a challenge and said none of us would die. Whatever it will take, I will do what I can by God’s grace to protect Rivers people. |Can you see our airport (Port Harcourt International Airport)? The president lands at the airport. But see how we look like refugees. They say there is no light at the airport. What did we do to them? We gave him the highest votes in the country and the punishment we get for given him the highest vote is operation nothing. So, APC is the solution to protect our interest. We must go there to vote out the PDP. It is not about our son. "They tell you that you should not vote for these people, because they are Hausa people, they are Muslims, but the refinery in Rivers State was built and commissioned by Tafawa Balewa, a northerner. Shehu Shagari started NAFCON, Ibrahim Babangida commissioned it. IBB started the Eleme Petrochemical Company, Sani Abacha completed it. They are all northerners; they are all Muslims. NLNG was started and completed by Abacha and he is a northerner and a Muslim. Bonny NLNG, NDDC, Niger Delta Ministry were established by northerners. "In fact, when late President Umaru Musa Yar’Adua was alive, Niger Delta Ministry was working; now it is only one item: East-West Road, and they say he (President Jonathan) is our brother. He is not my brother. My brother is the man who delivers on his services for me. If the President says he is our brother, let him call one project (his administration has embarked upon in Rivers State).” We thank APC leaders, including our presidential aspirants, for attending the Port Harcourt Mega Rally and for the message of hope they gave to Nigerians during the rally. For example, Buhari said that APC, from next year, would provide security and development in Nigeria, while Atiku urged Nigerians to vote for APC in 2015 to eradicate poverty and ensure steady electricity, good roads and good schools, among others. On their part, Okorocha assured that the APC would provide the best presidential candidate with vision for Nigeria, not based on religion or tribe, while Kwankwaso noted that Amaechi is ensuring peace and stability in Nigeria, as the Chairman of NGF, and Nda-Isaiah stated that God gave Rivers people a good Governor in Amaechi, declaring that he had never seen the kind of crowd he was seeing at the Adokiye Amiesimaka Stadium. Odigie-Oyegun assured that the APC would wipe out corruption in Nigeria and that APC is in charge of Rivers State, contrary to the claim of PDP leaders, stating that the progress in the state could be replicated at the centre and all over Nigeria. In conclusion, Rivers APC urges the Nigerian electorate to save our nation from PDP’s misrule in 2015 by punishing the PDP and President Goodluck Jonathan with our votes in 2015, in order to bring about the much-desired change. The power to bring about a better Nigeria is in our hands. Let’s use it wisely in 2015 and end the suffocating circle of doom and gloom occasioned by the visionless leadership of President Jonathan. Long Live APC! Long Live Rivers State!! Chief Eze Chukwuemeka Eze, SSA Media and Public Affairs to the State Chairman, APC Rivers State

After collecting their N24m; PDP rejects 2 presidential aspirants bcos of Jonathan

A fresh crisis is brewing in the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, over insistence of some of its members to contest its presidential primary with President Goodluck Jonathan ahead of the 2015 polls. But the National leadership of the party has refused to sell the presidential nomination and expression of interest forms to two other presidential aspirants, keeping the only one form for President Jonathan. The two aspirants, Dr. Abdul-Jhalil Tafawa-Balewa and Prof. Akasoba Duke-Abiola, were at the national secretariat of the party in Abuja on Tuesday to purchase the forms, but they were turned back. First to arrive was Tafawa-Balewa, who hails from Bauchi State. He is also the son of Nigeria’s First Republic Prime Minister, the late Abubakar Tafawa-Balewa. It will be recalled that all the caucuses of the party, including the National Executive Council had endorsed President Jonathan as its sole presidential candidate. Tafawa-Balewa had on September 21 condemned the action, which he said was a plot by the leadership of the party to frustrate other presidential aspirants. He had asked, “What type of democracy do we have? Is the PDP a communist party? Where is the place of internal democracy?” According to Punch, he insisted that he would not be intimidated by such a decision and vowed not to be cowed. He wondered the type of democracy that was being practised by the PDP. On Tuesday, Tafawa-Balewa stormed the party’s national secretariat with his supporters and bank tellers, with which he had hoped to purchase the presidential nomination and expression of interest forms. The bank tellers indicated that he deposited N22m into the account of the party with Zenith Bank. The breakdown of the fees showed that he paid N20m as nomination fee and another N2m for the expression of interest form. Rather than being issued his forms, the aspirant claimed that he was told by officials of the party that the forms were not ready. Yet the party will stop the selling of forms to all the aspirants on Thursday. Tafawa-Balewa said he was told that all other forms were on sale except the presidential nomination and expression of interest forms. He said, “I have paid for my forms. I was however told that they don’t have the forms ready. No matter, I am still here. I will send some of my people here on Thursday to come and pick the forms.” He said he went to the office of the Secretary, Prof. Wale Oladipo, and National Organising Secretary, Alhaji Abubakar Mustapha, but was denied the forms. Asked whether he was not aware that all the party organs had endorsed the President, Tafawa-Balewa said those organs were mere little organs of the party and were not superior to its Constitution. Speaking on the refusal of the party to present her with her forms, Duke-Abiola, who is one of the widows of the late Chief MKO Abiola, described the action of the party as questionable. Displaying the Diamond Bank Teller with which she paid her N2m to the party’s bank account, Duke-Abiola wondered why the party would issue her receipts and refused to sell the forms to her.

PDP members Weep, tell Tambuwal: Resign as Speaker Now

The political landscape has changed, the leading opposition APC now controls the House of Reps: PDP National leadership has welcomed the defection of the Speaker of the House, Aminu Tambuwal, to the APC but they want him to resign as speaker because he is no longer a member of their party. After almost one year of speculation and hob-nobbing with APC leaders, Tambuwal, formally dumped the PDP for the APC on Tuesday. Reacting to Tambuwal’s defection, PDP's Publicity Secretary, Olisa Metuh, said the honourable thing for Hon. Tambuwal now is to resign. Metuh said in a statement: “The National Working Committee of the Peoples Democratic Party has met with PDP leaders in the House of Representatives concerning the defection of the Speaker. After a thorough consideration of the matter, the NWC came to a conclusion that the Honourable Speaker, as a responsible elected officer, knows full well what is needful and honourable of him since his new party is in the minority. “We are not unmindful of the fact that Honourable Tambuwal became Speaker on the platform of the PDP as the political party with the majority of seats in the House of Representatives and that this incontrovertible fact has not changed.” How Tambuwal dumped PDP According to Vanguard, Tambuwal, who had put all his colleagues and political associates on their toes since 2013 over where he belongs, formalized his defection to APC via a two-paragraph letter. As soon as Leader of the House, Hon. Mulikat Akande-Adeola and the Deputy Leader, Hon. Leo Ogor, moved for adjournment and journalists stood up to leave the gallery, Tambuwal started reading his decampment letter. The Speaker waited till the end of the day’s legislative business in the House to announce his movement to the opposition party. Tambuwal said: ”Before I hit the gavel on the motion for adjournment, I want to make this formal announcement to this House. Based on the provisions of the 1999 Constitution, and having regards to the development of PDP in my state, Sokoto State, I hereby announce my membership with the All Progressives Congress (APC). “Let me register my profound appreciation to all of you, my colleagues, for the unflinching support you have continued to extend to me for the overall national interest and development of our democracy. May Almighty God continue to guide us all.” PDP Reps hold emergency meeting; some weep Members of the PDP trooped into the Deputy Speaker, Emeka Ihedioha’s conference room to hold what members described as an emergency meeting. After the brief meeting, PDP leadership summoned the PDP House caucus to its secretariat. Some members who could not control their emotions closed their office doors to journalists and wept at the loss of a colleague to the opposition. Some of the lawmakers told Vanguard: “Please we are not in the mood to discuss anything at this moment but we will meet this night to deliberate on the way forward”. Tambuwal’s next political move Tambuwal, Vanguard reliably gathered had picked the governorship nomination form over a week ago where he was made the sole flag bearer of the APC in Sokoto State. An impeccable source close to the speaker said that Tambuwal is also eyeing the presidency. The game plan, he explains, is that if Tambuwal failed at the presidential level, he has nothing to lose as the Sokoto ticket is already in his pocket. “I do not know how he intends to achieve that but from all indications our friend is eyeing both positions,” the source said. Tambuwal remains Speaker, APC Reps APC lawmakers addressed the press immediately Tambuwal announced his defection. Arrowhead of the opposition, Femi Gbajabiamila and the Minority Whip, Samson Osagie spoke at the briefing. They said: “We are here to address you on the events of today, the formal notification by the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Tambuwal, of his membership of the All Progressives Congress. “We welcome and applaud the Speaker’s decision. Ever since the crises started in PDP which led to the formation of the ‘New PDP’, and the defection of five PDP Governors, 37 PDP members of the House of Representatives to the APC, and the formal merger of the ‘New PDP’ with the APC, we had all along known that this day will come. “We are proud to acknowledge that the Speaker remains not only a member of the House of Representatives but also its Speaker. This position is consistent with the law and practice in a Presidential System of Government. “For the avoidance of doubt, the Constitution requires only, that ‘Speaker or Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives shall be elected by members of that House from among themselves.’ Rt. Hon Aminu Waziri Tambuwal has been a speaker for all the members, all the political parties and for all Nigerians and will so continue. “As a caucus, we pledge our continued support to the current leadership of the House of Reps. We will not do anything to destabilize the institution of the House of Representatives, so that it will continue to deliver on the mandates given to its members by Nigerians.”

Do you know Buhari is rejecting N300m from the Government?

Many people have been wondering why Muhammadu Buhari couldn't afford to pay N27m for APC forms as a former Head of State, especially because all past Nigerian leaders collect about N300million per annum from the Federal Government as salary [pension and other entitlements]. An investigation by Dino Melaye has just confirmed that Buhari has never collected that money, he said it is wrong for him to be collecting such BIG money when many Nigerians are poor and government is not doing much to better their lives. Buhari wrote a letter to the Minister of Finance and said he should only be paid 10% of the N23m they give all past leaders as monthly salary. That means, while other ex-Nigerian Presidents and Heads of State are getting N23million monthly, Buhari gets only N2.3million.

Wow! This man is a real patriotic Nigerian leader. We need people like him to manage our resources!

Obama Just Said The Last Thing Red State Democrats Want To Hear

AP/Carolyn Kaster Barack Obama. US President Barack Obama offered a new talking point to Senate Republicans on Monday — just two weeks away from Election Day. Speaking on the Rev. Al Sharpton's radio show, Obama said the Democratic candidates who had been avoiding him were actually "strong allies who have supported my agenda." Many of these candidates are in conservative-leaning states where Obama's agenda is decisively unpopular. "And so some of the candidates there — it is difficult for them to have me in the state because the Republicans will use that to try to fan Republican turnout," Obama said, according to The Hill. "The bottom line is, though, these are all folks who vote with me, they have supported my agenda in Congress, they are on the right side of minimum wage, they are on the right side of fair pay, they are on the right side of rebuilding our infrastructure, they're on the right side of early childhood education." Neutral political observers said the quote was a gift for Republicans running in tougher-than-expected races in these more conservative states. Senate Republicans need to net six seats to regain the majority in the chamber. To accomplish that, they must pick off Democrats in states like Louisiana, Alaska, North Carolina, and Arkansas. "Christmas came early for Republicans in tough races," the research firm Potomac Research Group declared Tuesday morning. "Big mistake. We've seen TV ads all around the country, and the GOP spots are scathing — if you vote for the Democrat, you're voting for Obama. The president apparently doesn't get it; he once again has made the election about him. Not a smart move."

Father abandons his 3 children in boarding school for 8 years

Three children abandoned in a boarding school in Abule-Iroko in the Ado-Odo Ota LGA of Ogun State are longing to meet their parents who have abandoned them for eight years. When PUNCH visited Solid Model College, the children recounted their ordeal, noting that the absence of their parents was affecting their studies. Seun Adepegba, 14, Seyi, 10 and Titilola, 13, were severed from parental love and care since infanthood. After waiting for eight years, they seemed to have relinquished all hopes of reuniting with their parents. It was learnt that their tale of sorrow began in 2007 when their father, Mr Segun Adepegba, who had been separated from their mother, enrolled them in the boarding school because he could not afford to take care of them. According to the proprietor of the school, Mr Samuel Ayegbusi, Adepegba came to enroll them in his school on September 24, 2007 with a promise to always check on them. He said: “Mr. Adepegba told me his wife had just left him and that he could not afford to take care of them, being a jobless man. The children were very little. Seyi was two, while Titilola was five. “Mr Adepegba had pleaded with me to accept them in the boarding school. Mr Adepegba’s sister promised to bear the cost of their upkeep. They paid an initial N150,000 for the three children for the first term.” But according to the proprietor, Adepegba never kept his promise. He said after the first term, the school expected him to come and take his children home for holiday but he never showed up until four years later. He said the school had expended over N7m on the upkeep of the children since 2007. The proprietor said efforts to reach the parents’ families had proved abortive, adding that calls to Adepegba’s phones were not always answered. He said, “Whenever we called him and he realised who was talking on the phone, he would switch off his phones and for the next two weeks, the numbers would not be available. When the school contacted their father’s sisters, we were told that they had travelled out of the country. “When we called one of them, we were told that they had sent money to Mr Adepegba to defray the children’s school fees and upkeep. But Mr. Adepegba has never come here to make any payment since the initial deposit he made in 2007.” According to the proprietor, taking care of the children had further become cumbersome for him as one of them, Titilayo, had started misbehaving. He recounted how Titilayo ran away from the hostel twice without informing the school authority on the excuse that she was going to look for her father. Ever since she was found, the proprietor said the school had had to keep her in a room, under tight surveillance, because she had vowed to run away to find her father. He said, “The school is not even bothered by the cost of their upkeep. But anytime the school closed for holiday and parents come around to take their children home, Titilayo would fall into a sober mood and twice, she had run away from the hostel without informing anyone. It was a resident who stopped her and brought her back to the school. Some of the teachers, who spoke with PUNCH Metro during the visit, said the absence of the children’s parents was seriously affecting their studies. They said the appearance of their parents would boost their academic performance. While recounting their days with their father, the children said he celebrated birthdays with them. They said they had never met their mother. Titilayo said, “We do not know who our mother is. We grew up in Yaba, Lagos and all we remember is that there was a woman that washed our clothes and took care of us until we came here. We knew she was not our mother.” Seyi, the youngest of the trio, however, was an exception as she kept a cheerful look during the visit. Seyi, who told our correspondent her dream was to become a medical doctor said, “Although I have a faint memory of my father, I will like to see him. If he comes today, I will ask him why he left us for so long.” Seun added, “I don’t care how long he has left us. I just want to see him. I really need to see him.” When Punch called Adepegba on Thursday, his phones were switched off.

Gulder Ultimate Search Contestant Turns Deaf and Dumb

Ikenna Emedike fondly called Ikenna E became the first warrior to bear the stump of shame in Gulder Ultimate Search XI for disobedience. According to rules, the Stump of Shame should always be dragged around by the contestant serving punishment. In addition, the victim must not speak with anyone or being spoken to by anybody. Ikenna .E who was the leader suffered this consequence for moving himself and other contestants to another tent aside the ones being designated by the council of elders. His excuse was because soldier ‘ants’ invaded the initial tents. But in the words of the anchor man ‘Chidi Mokeme’ who was displeased at his action, he said: ‘So every time solider ants come around, you move and leave your properties for soldier ants. You cannot take care of soldier ants in the jungle? The council of elders will not tolerate disobedience’

Ikenna .E had to carry the stump of shame. As the bearer he becomes an outcast in the camp till the next challenge. Ikenna E delayed proceedings at the Task Area & Place of The Talking Drum as he had great difficulty dragging his Stump of Shame. A night before, Nwagboso Joshua was evicted from the show for not been able to succeed in the extremely difficult task Heart of the Hunter.

Boko Haram splits into 2 Factions over Peace with Presidency

Following the ceasefire deal the Federal Government entered into with Boko Haram, the violent sect has split into two. While one faction wants peace, the other doesn’t. bussygee observation: This is why FG should not have waiting until Boko Haram has killed well over 20,000 Nigerians before talking of peace. It's almost late, now the peace is more difficult. It was gathered on Sunday that the Federal Government might have entered into the ceasefire with only the faction interested in the cessation of hostilities in the North-East. "The Boko Haram faction that carried out the attack is the one that wants the insurgency to continue. It is made up of hardcore elements who believe their goal of imposing Sharia on the whole country has not been achieved and for them, the violence must continue until they win the war or perish in their quest." A reliable source in government told PUNCH in Abuja that the leaders of the pro-peace faction of the sect were the ones who took part in the negotiations with representatives of the Chadian, Cameroonian and Federal Government in Ndjamena last week. FG and Boko Haram reps are expected to finalize the ceasefire at another meeting on Tuesday. The source said he believed the attacks on Shafa in Borno State and Sina, Adamawa State on Friday, could have been carried out by the faction not be interested in ending the violence. There had been reports of disagreements among the top members of the sect following the clamour by some of its commanders for an end to the insurgency. A yet to be verified report had said some sect members died a few weeks ago in a shoot-out between the pro-peace and the pro-Jihad factions. Nigerian military is however keeping its side of the peace deal by suspending all hostilities against the insurgents, PUNCH learnt. This, according to a top military source, was a direct outcome of a directive issued by the Chief of Defence Staff, Air Chief Marshal Alex Badeh. He had on Friday ordered the suspension of all on-going aerial and ground offensives against the sect. “One cannot say the peace deal has been violated; it is the nature of most terrorist organisations to act that way, and it should be expected because they have several layers of operation. They have such a long chain that it takes time for them to communicate with the top unlike the military where you are very quick communication channels. “Another thing is that each of the cells operates independent of the other. So those who carried out the attacks in the villages in might not even be aware of the deal,” the source added.

Fayose Prostrates Flat on the Floor at Deeper Life Church; says "I Will Sin No More"

Wife of the governor of Ekiti State, Mrs Feyisetan Fayose, has revealed the travails she and her husband went through for eight years after they were sacked from Government House on October 16, 2006. Speaking at a thanksgiving testimony at the Deeper Life Bible Church in Ado Ekiti today, she said: “God revealed to me that my husband, Mr Ayodele Fayose will return as the governor, but he never told me the time. God told me that our return would be done in such a way that will beat the people’s imagination. But because of the trouble we went through, at a time I prayed to God to please push my husband out of politics. Later, God told me that He will leave him there for Him to prove His power. “After we left, Gen Tunji Olurin came, Segun Oni and come Governor Kayode Fayemi and today God has manifested His power. This is not by our power or strength, but by the grace of God.” In his own testimony during the service, Fayose said he would resist any attempt by sycophants to mislead him in this second coming, which he has described as ‘rare and divine.’ He stressed that he had forgiven all his traducers “Having a second chance is very rare. If this time has been in Bible days, my name would have been one of the names to be recorded as those who God gave a second chance. “My return to government is not common in history. It is a rare miracle. During the seven and half years of my political wilderness, I was taken to Court over what I knew and knew nothing about 59 times aside the 45 days I spent in Ikoyi Prisons during my trial by the EFCC. “My Security aides and political aides like Chief Dayo Okondo were incarcerated for three and half years without committing any offence. I won’t allow sycophants to derail me again. All my property were left in the Government House because I had to run for my dear life. So, this time my mission is to look after Ekiti people and not to fight anybody. I will not allow this position to go into my head or use it to oppress anybody. I don’t have anybody in mind to punish or any political battle to fight”, he added.

Fayose sacks All Ekiti LG chairmen; shuns Government House

Ayo Fayose is back with his very unique style of governance. The Ekiti State Governor has sacked all the Caretaker Chairmen of the 16 LGAs and the 19 newly created Council Development Areas in the state. Also dissolved are all the boards of government corporations, agencies and parastatals constituted by the immediate past Governor, Dr. Kayode Fayemi. Fayose, in a statement by his Chief Press Secretary, Mr. Idowu Adelusi, directed all the caretaker chairmen to immediately hand over to the Director of Administration of their respective council. The statement reads: “All the local government and local council development areas’ caretaker chairmen are to hand over to the Directors of Administration of the existing local government areas. The Directors of Administration are to take inventory of the property handed over to them.” At a thanksgiving service held at the Central Mosque, Ado-Ekiti, on Friday, Fayose said: “I am for the masses. I’m not in a hurry to go to the Government House. Those who want to go there can go there and enjoy themselves. How will a governor put electricity in his house and the whole town is in darkness.” Caretaker chairmen were in charge of the 16 LGAs and 19 LCDAs during the administration of Fayemi. The attempt by his government to hold council election in the 16 councils on February 4, 2011, was stopped by the state High Court, following a suit filed by the PDP in the state that some of the members of the State Independent Electoral Commission were members of the then ruling party, APC. Fayemi, who had promised to hold council election before the end of the year was defeated by Fayose in the June 21 election. Fayose had at his inaugural speech on Thursday vowed not to fund the LCDAs with the Allocations from the Federation account meant for the 16 councils listed in the 1999 Constitution. He said “Section 7 of the 1999 Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria (as amended) clearly spells the authorities and procedures for the creation of local government. “The sudden and shoddy balkanisation of the existing 16 local government areas by the immediate past administration under the guise of creating local council development areas is being challenged in the court of law. “Our party considers the hurried creation of the 19 LCDAs, after incumbent (Fayemi) lost the June election, as gratuitous afterthought of a bad loser. It smacks of political subterfuge masterminded in utmost bad faith. “But at the moment, the matter is sub judice, and as law abiding citizens, our government will not do anything that will render the decision of the court nugatory. “However, pending the pronouncement of the court, our administration shall be guided by the provisions of Section 3, Part 1, First Schedule of 1999 Constitution on the list of local governments in Nigeria in the allocation of resources to that tier of government.” Meanwhile, Fayose is yet to move into the new Government House in Ado-Ekiti, just completed by the admin of Dr. Kayode Fayemi. Investigations by Punch revealed that Fayose is still governing the state from his campaign office in the Government Reservation Area, Ado-Ekiti. He had on Tuesday invited prophets in Ekiti, both Islamic and Christian, for the cleansing of the Government House. Also on Thursday in his inaugural speech, the governor threw open the gates of the government lodge and asked people of the state to go and enjoy themselves there as it was built with their money.

The President For Boko Haram

Idriss Deby: The President For Boko Haram In the release of a handful of Chinese hostages and the wife of the deputy Prime minister of Cameroon, abducted by Boko Haram terrorists this year, the President of Chad was reported by a most reputable New York based editorial, SaharaReporters, to have been pivotal. Idriss Deby of Francophone Chad “by virtue of his relationships with top Boko Haram terrorist commanders” helped Francophone Cameroon “negotiate” the release of the abductees in a deal in which both nation’s apex leaders were directly involved and that had Boko Haram given $400,000 and unbelievably, according to the accurate and confirmed editorial report that first leaked the status of the deal, Idriss and Biya of Cameroon gave Boko Haram sophisticated arms and ammunition and ensured the safe transfer of these weapons to the fighting Boko Haram terrorist commanders in the field. (SaharaReporters; 10/11/14; and Serious Allegations of Cameroon, Chad Arming Boko Haram Is Act of Terror and War –ENDS; 10/12/14) In late August of this year when a surprising revelation was made by Nigerian hired Boko Haram negotiator, Australian Stephen Davis, that a former governor of Borno the Boko Haram plagued State at the border with Chad, Ali Modu Sheriff in addition to the immediate ex-army chief, General Azubuike Ihejirika, were the top sponsors of the Boko Haram terrorist menace; the Nigerian President, Goodluck Ebele Jonathan, renowned for his tolerance of the Boko Haram terrorists, their sponsors and their deadly carnage over the six years of his rule, and remembered for his shocking statements in 2012, defending Boko Haram against global calls for rapid extermination, calling them his “siblings” and his family who he “will never send the army to kill;” suddenly this September, a week after the Davis revelation, rushed to Chad for an emergency secret meeting with Idriss Deby. The emergency closed door meeting was held not surprisingly along with the implicated Boko Haram top sponsor, the former governor of Borno, Modu Sheriff who was pictured in attendance and earlier on giving the infamous Janjaweed handshake at the airport. This was the infamous Janjaweed Boko Haram assembly with the Janjaweed handshake. I have written extensively on the necessity of this meeting; the role and reasons Chad sponsors Boko Haram and the mutual benefits of supporting Boko Haram terror by all parties involved. [See: Boko Haram, Big Oil And The Chad Connection; 9/12/14: The #JanjaweedConnection: Boko Haram Unraveling; 9/13/14; Boko Haram: Jonathan, Ihejirika Supervised Foreign Invasion of Nigeria’s Oil Rich Northeast; 9/14/14) For the Nigerian leadership and Chad it is a situation that yields billions of dollars now and in the future, in money for the so-called war on terror (so far Nigeria dedicated over 18 billion dollars from its annual budgets, before the most recent $1 billion loan, to this war through Jonathan’s 6 years yet there is no account for army upgrades and equipment purchases to cover these billions. This has been pointed out by the United States who called for General Ihejirika’s inquiry), and in tandem, secures Chad’s sole exploration and continued harvest of oil from shared oil wells in the Chad basin. Your enemies enemy is your friend. The Nigerian president who yet publicly does not know where Gwoza, serially plagued and destroyed by Boko Haram, is, and who recently in Nairobi referred to Boko Haram plagued northern regions as “those parts,” and stated that the only reason why he now confronted the terror was so it did not come to “his parts” of Nigeria, clearly has little interest in preserving life and land of the northerners and north dwellers over the billions in dollars and oil investments yields he and the person of the former Governor of Borno have in Chad oil. Chad as I wrote earlier orchestrates the same type of chaos at its southern border with the Central African Republic, CAR, where it likewise drills oil from its other border shared wells. The history of France and French colonies sponsoring Boko Haram terror did not first become publicly known this 2014. This has been commonly known information in global security circuits. It is no surprise that when Boko Haram abducted 234 girls from Chibok, the meeting to “address” the crises was immediately summoned at the behest of the French President and was held under his watch in Paris. In 2013, France was reported to have sponsored Boko Haram with a donation of a whooping sum of 3.15 million dollars which was supposedly paid as “ransom” for the release of a single abducted French family. In that transaction, France had Cameroon also released several top Boko Haram commanders who were in Cameroonian jails. (Reuters; 11/14/2013) Most Boko Haram commanders are French-speaking nationals of Chad, Niger and Cameroon, including Abu Mahjin who was sent from Chad to Nigeria to establish Boko Haram II, as US cables report, (Guardian; 12/04/2010), Mamman Nur from Cameroon and group masterminds Khalid al-Barnawi and Abubakar Shekau I, from Francophone Niger; and Boko Haram has always established in these nations and freely recruited soldiers, gotten weaponry and established open training camps from where they set out on their missions to capture territory in English-speaking Nigeria’s resource rich northeast. Boko Haram propaganda messages are also almost exclusively broadcast and promoted through French/France media. Currently, Idriss Deby is not surprisingly involved at the center of the transactions for Boko Haram to release some over 200 abducted girls in an alleged urgent “ceasefire” barely three months ahead of the next Nigerian Presidential elections which current Nigerian President Goodluck Jonathan is expected to contest, and importantly, these sudden moves come three weeks after Nigeria’s President secured approval for a $1 billion dollar loan to “combat” the Boko Haram terrorists. The sudden striking of a deal with the terrorists, the conditions of which have not been made known to Nigerians, right after Nigeria’s Senate reluctantly approved a loan for the very opposite – to fight and destroy the last remaining Boko Haram miscreant hoodlum – is possibly the greatest betrayal of the Nigerian people and Senate who authorized the loan. Only an unconditional surrender and submission of all territories occupied by Boko Haram would be acceptable under the current conditions of success of the Nigerian army and Civilian-JTF (#VictoryForNigeria) and with the opportunities of the equipment the $1 billion is meant to purchase. Losers surrender they do not bargain, such a bargain can be regarded as terror sponsorship to protect and preserve the terrorists so they can recruit more northern youth again to freely sacrifice in the war for northeastern land, as they continue their mayhem at a later date, and follows the Ihejrika facilitated endless cycle pogrom doctrine. According to media reports, Boko Haram will deposit the girls with Idriss Deby who will act in their charge and facilitate the smooth transaction. Jonathan is selling Nigeria. The northeast is a business venture and Boko Haram is now incorporated and represented by a nation’s President. In the so-called ceasefire, there has been no talk about the unconditional surrender of all Boko Haram fighters and the releasing of Boko Haram gendarme captured territory in the oil and uranium rich regions of Borno. Boko Haram currently remains in charge of several large cities, which include Bama, Gwoza, Marte, Ngala, Konduga and Dikwa, and control large swaths of land in Borno with hundreds of thousands of Nigerians under their jurisdiction and not just simply the 234 abducted girls. Hundreds of families are under “Boko Haram government.” The release of the abducted girls is no longer the major crises as since the abduction, under the protection of the Jonathan Government and his army Chiefs, Boko Haram now came out of the jungles and captured dozens of Nigerian farming villages and cities with men, women, boys and girls alike held hostage. So what is Idriss Deby’s interest in this transaction? Why does he continue to sponsor chaos in Nigeria? Is it related to the shared Chad basin oil as we have earlier analyzed? Does Idris Debby in this package plan to annex the territories captured by the Boko Haram gendarmes which the Nigerian government has no plans of recovering from Boko Haram? Early this September a Nigerian private jet belonging to the head of the Christian Association of Nigeria, CAN, Pastor Ayo Oritisejafor, was impounded in South Africa after being found to have been used to smuggle the sum of $9.7 million into the nation to allegedly buy and smuggle arms out. An Israeli and two Nigerians were implicated. Another jet owned by a certain ruling-party politically connected business mogul, Felix Idiga from Imo State, was also associated with the smuggling of money and arms between Nigeria and South Africa. In the recurrent incidents, the smuggling is authorized by the Jonathan cabinet at the top level and millions of dollars is carried in suitcases into the nation and unbelievably always declared to be destined for the purchase of non-specific arms from companies that DO NOT have licenses to sell arms. As Nigeria settles with Boko Haram occupying French forces, what financial deal is involved? Is the seeking of $1 billion to freely use for politics and toward settling Boko Haram terrorist commanders and the leadership of Chad and Nigeria, part of the entire aim and objective of the terror? The final and most worrying question on our minds is: as the Nigerian government has shamelessly admitted that its National security offices, without jurisdiction to purchase arms, approve of deals to carry millions of dollars in suitcases to give companies with no arms licenses in foreign nations; how many cash laden suitcases filled with tens and hundreds of millions of dollars out of the $1 billion borrowed, are being flown and driven into Chad right now as we speak, for “the purchase of ammunition?” Dr. Peregrino Brimah http://ENDS.ng [Every Nigerian Do Something]

Family identify 4 kids, 2 adults killed in blaze

MCKEESPORT, Pa. — The sole survivor of a deadly house fire in western Pennsylvania lost his new wife, her four young children and his disabled father in the Saturday morning blaze after the recently married couple tried to save their loved ones, family members said. The fire in the Pittsburgh suburb of McKeesport claimed the lives of Hope Jordan and four children ages 2 to 7, as well as the surviving victim's paralyzed father, according to family members. Keith Egenlauf was hospitalized with burns over 55 percent of his body from the fast-moving fire that erupted shortly before 7 a.m., according to his aunt, Donna Ackerman. Egenlauf was in critical condition in the burn unit at UPMC Mercy hospital in Pittsburgh, according to a nursing supervisor. Egenlauf and Jordan, whose Facebook page indicated they were married Dec. 7, initially escaped the flames but went back into the burning two-story house to try to save Jordan's children and Egenlauf's 56-year-old father, Ronald Edward Egenlauf, Ackerman said. Relatives identified the children as Jordan's son and three daughters: Dominic Jordan, 7; Autumn Jordan, 6; Serenity Jakub, 3; and Victoria Jakub, 2. "He and Hope got out, and then went back in to get the kids," Ackerman said. Keith Egenlauf was burned but managed to escape a second time, she said.

Mary Benton, 60, another aunt, who like Ackerman was a sister of the elder Egenlauf, said Keith Egenlauf and his father were always close. "He stayed beside his dad no matter what. His dad didn't do anything without him," she said. Father and son had lived in the yellow wood-frame house for about 10 years, Ackerman said. Ronald Egenlauf had been paralyzed from a stroke that he suffered about six years ago during surgery to repair an aneurysm and used a wheelchair, according to Ackerman. Alvin Henderson, Allegheny County's chief of emergency services, said the dead man was found in a first-floor room he used as his living quarters.

"The other five victims, which would be the one adult female and the four juveniles, were in a second floor bedroom all together," Henderson said. Investigators were combing through the rubble trying to determine what caused the fire, a process that could take days. Others were interviewing family members about the layout of the house and the victims' living habits, in order to get a clear picture of where the family members likely were when the fire began and why they didn't escape, Henderson said. The chief didn't know whether investigators had been able to interview Keith Egenlauf. The Allegheny County medical examiner's office said autopsies would not be conducted until Sunday.

Florida man sentenced to life plus 90 years in rap music murder

JACKSONVILLE Fla. Michael Dunn, a middle-aged white man, was sentenced to life in prison without parole, plus 90 years, by a Florida judge on Friday for killing an unarmed black teenager in an argument over loud rap music. Dunn, 47, a software engineer, testified at his murder trial last month he thought he was defending himself from an armed threat when he fired 10 rounds at an SUV carrying four teens at a Jacksonville gas station parking lot, killing Jordan Davis, 17, in November 2012. Under Florida law, first-degree murder is punishable by life in prison without parole. Prosecutors waived the death penalty before trial. Judge Russell Healey gave Dunn the maximum 90 additional years for earlier convictions on three counts of attempted murder of the other teens, none of whom were injured, to be served consecutively. On a fourth charge of shooting a deadly missile into an occupied vehicle, Dunn received 15 years to be served concurrently. The Dunn case drew comparisons to that of George Zimmerman, who was acquitted of murder in Florida last year in the shooting of Trayvon Martin, another unarmed black 17-year-old. Zimmerman, a neighborhood watch volunteer, said he fired in self-defense. In an emotional statement, Davis' mother told the court she forgave Dunn in order to move on with her life. "I choose to forgive you, Mr. Dunn, for taking my son's life," she said. "Anger and bitterness will not honor my son's life. I walk in freedom, knowing the Lord's justice has been served." In a statement before the sentence was read Dunn expressed his regret to the Davis family, saying he was sorry for the their loss. "If I could roll back time and do things differently, I would," he said. Even though he said he acted in fear for his life and did what he thought he had to do, "I am mortified that I took a life, whether it was justified or not,” he added. On the night of the murder, Dunn and Davis exchanged words before the shooting about the loud music coming from the SUV. The jury, composed of 10 whites and two blacks, took less than five hours to reach a verdict. In a previous trial in February, a jury deadlocked after deliberating the murder charge in Davis' death for four days, but convicted Dunn on three counts of attempted murder for firing at the other teenagers in the vehicle.

Fearing Ebola, some US communities take dramatic steps

Washington (AFP) - As President Barack Obama on Saturday urged against "hysteria or fear" over Ebola, US media had reports of communities taking seemingly overzealous measures against the disease.A teacher from Maine was placed on three-weeks paid leave because she'd traveled to Texas for a conference -- where she'd stayed in a hotel 10 miles (16 kilometers) from the hospital in which the first case of the virus was diagnosed in the United States.A Pulitzer-prize-winning photographer was uninvited from speaking at a journalism school, because he'd gone to Ebola hotspot Liberia, even though he'd been back 21 days and was showing no symptoms. And a group of Mississippi parents pulled their kids from school because the principal recently traveled to Africa -- though he'd been to a completely different part of the continent from where the Ebola epidemic is wreaking havoc. In each case, parents or officials involved say they were acting out of an abundance of caution. In the Maine case, Matt Dexter, who has a child at Strong Elementary School in the coastal city of Portland, told the Portland Press Herald that many parents were concerned the school had sent a teacher to Dallas without telling parents. "I'm really tired of people telling everyone, on the news, starting at the national level, 'zero risk, low risk,'" Dexter told the newspaper. "The bottom line is that there is risk." Two nurses in Dallas caught Ebola after caring for a Liberian man, Thomas Eric Duncan, who died October 8 after becoming the first case diagnosed in the United States. In New York state, Syracuse University rescinded its invitation to three-time Pulitzer Prize-winning photojournalist Michel du Cille of The Washington Post, because he had been working in Liberia.Du Cille, who had been scheduled to offer expert critiques as part of a journalism program, had already been back 21 days, which health officials say is the outer limit for the disease's incubation, and was symptom-free. "I am disappointed in the level of journalism at Syracuse, and I am angry that they missed a great teaching opportunity," he told News Photographer magazine. "Instead they have decided to jump in with the mass hysteria." The journalism school said it acted after a student voiced unease. "While I don’t want to contribute to the fears about the disease, I believed we needed to exercise due caution," dean Lorraine Branham said in a statement. In Hazlehurst, Mississippi, some parents pulled their children from a middle school because the principal had traveled to Zambia to attend his brother's funeral. Zambia is in southern Africa, far from the Ebola crisis in West Africa. In his weekly address to the nation on Saturday, Obama cautioned against over-reacting to Ebola. "This is a serious disease, but we can't give in to hysteria or fear -- because that only makes it harder to get people the accurate information they need," the president said. "We have to be guided by the science. We have to remember the basic facts."
