Knificent.blogspot.com .
A group of Nigerians in diaspora, having traced their roots to Igboland via DNA, decided to come back home in Anambra state over their inheritance.

According to the traditional ruler, ten African Americans/Canadian of Igbo ancestry, were inducted as brothers and sisters and also issued with Igbo names and allocated plots of land for residence during the last Eri Festival in Aguleri, Anambra East Local Government Area.

Here are pictures of how it went down.

Oshiomhole: Jonathan Started Vote Buying In Nigeria - Politics -

Knificent.blogspot.com .
Former President, Goodluck Jonathan, started vote buying in Nigeria, the national chairman of the All Progressive Congress (APC) Adams Oshiomhole has alleged.

Mr Oshiomhole stated this on Sunday where he featured on a Channels Television programme, Roadmap.

Vote buying, defined as a reward given to a person for voting in a particular way, is a corrupt election practice. It is a threat to the conduct of fair elections.

Although recorded in previous elections in the country, the loudest was witnessed in the recently conducted governorship election in Ekiti State with both the APC and the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) participating.



“I cannot be chairman of a party and celebrate anything that tends to distort the actual wishes of the electorate,” Oshiomhole said in the programme monitored by NGPOLITICS.

Mr Oshiomhole accusing Mr Jonathan said the former president introduced the electoral malpractice in Nigeria.

“But your recollection of history is not complete. If you were to really trace the history of vote buying it started with Jonathan’s second attempt (second term) with all due respect to him.

“In Edo State where I participated, I was still governor at the time. They turn out not just Naira, they turn out Dollars.

“President Jonathan started this massive vote buying in Nigeria and the Media must play back and do proper interview and proper investigation to discover the origin of vote buying,” he said.

When asked if his party participated in vote buying, the APC chairman said although he will not dismiss the allegation, he was not a party to such practise.

He expressed doubt that the candidate of the party, Kayode Fayemi, who he said was struggling to sustain his campaign had such money to throw around.

He said if there was need to point accusing fingers it should be to the incumbent State Governor, Ayodele Fayose, who he alleged must have used the funds of the state to indulge in the illegal electoral act.

Accusing Fayose, Oshiomhole said: “I guess it was the guy who had access to Ekiti treasury which in this case was the PDP and the sitting governor who was so confident that he has all the resources.”

Oshiomhole said to eliminate vote buying the anti-corruption fight President Muhammadu Buhari must be supported.

“I am committed and agree absolutely with those who says we must do everything possible to eliminate vote buying.

“Going forward, the way to eliminate it is to support President Buhari’s anti-corruption campaign.

“If people of power no longer can take money freely from the treasury, I want to submit with all seriousness that those who labour to make money are not likely to buy votes,” he added.

The spokesman of the former president, Mr. Ikechukwu Eze, was not reachable for comments as at the time of publication

MTN Sues CBN And AGF Over $8.1 Billions Funds - Phones

Knificent.blogspot.com .

Telecommunications firm, MTN Communications Limited has taken the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) and the office of the Attorney General of the Federation (AGF) to court.

The move according to the firm was in order to protect MTN Nigeria’s assets and shareholders’ rights within the confines of Nigerian law. The firm will, however, continue to dialogue with the relevant authorities.

Here is the statement as sent by the company:

Further announcement regarding Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) and the Attorney General of the Federal Republic of Nigeria (AGF) matters and renewal of cautionary announcement.

As previously disclosed the CBN has alleged improper dividend repatriations by MTN Nigeria Communications Limited (MTN Nigeria) and requested that $8.1 billion be returned “to the coffers of the CBN” whilst the AGF has alleged unpaid taxes on foreign payments and imports and that approximately $2.0 billion in relation to these taxes be paid to the Federal Government of Nigeria (and now directed that the payment of the $8.1 billion is dealt with through his office rather than as directed by the CBN).

MTN Nigeria has denied these allegations and claims. Furthermore, four commercial banks were issued fines in respect of the administration of the CCI and irregular dividend repatriation matter and requested to return, in aggregate, the same $8. 1 billion.

In order to protect MTN Nigeria’s assets and shareholder rights within the confines of Nigerian law, we have applied today in the Federal High Court of Nigeria for injunctive relief restraining the CBN and the AGF from taking further action in respect of their orders, while we continue to engage with the relevant authorities on these matters.

We remain resolute that MTN Nigeria has not committed any offences and will continue to vigorously defend its position.

We will provide further information as and when available. Shareholders are accordingly advised to continue to exercise caution when dealing in the Company’s securities until a further announcement is made.
