Obaze rejects results

                      Oseleoka Obaze

Obaze in a reaction said that the results did not reflect the will of the people.
He said: “The over voting and inconsistencies between the counted ballots and card reader data remains exceedingly worrisome.
“The uniformity of the incumbent governor wining 21 local governments is a political aberration in the context of Anambra politics.
“The election results as reported, shows that nothing matters to the Anambra electorate. The people have spoken. They have taken a cursory long term view of what they wish for Anambra State.”
Dr. Alex Obiogbolu, who took second in the PDP governorship primaries, however, welcomed the election even as he lamented the import of the election on PDP faithful in the state.
“To my PDP family members, I understand your emotions at this moment and more so, that mine has been one of frustration and anger at oneself. We had been promised a reformed PDP, and assured severally that impunity was a thing of the past. I urge that we accept the will of the people,” he said.

The emergence of that Policy is further demonstration of the seriousness with which the Buhari administration takes the issue of improving the nutritional status of all Nigerians, especially the most vulnerable in our midst: infants and children, pregnant women, the elderly, the poor. That policy, if fully implemented, will...

'I was never banned at any time from entering America' - President Buhari replies Atiku

-
  President Buhari has reacted to a recent interview where former Vice President, Atiku Abubakar, said that "for about 15 years, Buhari could not enter America on account of religious considerations." In a statement by Femi Adeshina the Preident's media aide, 'this fictive concoction being passed off as truth is mind boggling, coming from a former Number Two man of Nigeria, who should know the truth. At no time was President Buhari, as a private person, ever forbidden from entering any country in the world. Rather, the rest of the world has always held Muhammadu Buhari as a man of sterling qualities, strong on integrity, transparency and accountability. The same testimony is still borne of the Nigerian President by many world leaders today'. He continued to say, 'It is curious that former VP Abubakar had been asked why he had not visited America for over a decade, something that had been a stubborn fact dogging his footsteps. Instead of ...
