Angry Youths Storm Police Station, Blocks Entrance With Dead Bodies

 

Hundreds of angry youths have stormed a police station in the Kajola community of Odigbo council area of Ondo State and blocked the entrance with three dead bodies.

The youths alleged that the officers were in the habit of extorting and harassing residents along the Ijebu Ode/Ore expressway.

They claimed that the three victims died due to their extortion of money from motorcyclists.

The irate youths blocked the police station with the corpses while chanting protest songs and demanded that the security personnel immediately leave the community.

An eyewitness, Funmi Olowogboye told Sunday Vanguard that the policemen stopped the bike conveying the deceased person’s at the checkpoint and while trying to stop, a van, in a bid to avoid the policemen hit the motorcycle and killed the three victims on the spot.

She said: “The van driver crushed the three victims on the motorcycle as they tried to park at the instruction of the police officers who wanted to collect money from them, and they died on the spot.”

The policemen reportedly fled the scene leaving the dead bodies in their wake.

Narrating the incident, the Chairman of Odigbo Council, Mrs Margaret Akinsuroju, said, “Immediately I heard about the incident, I started mobilizing the police so that there would not be a breakdown of peace.

“I heard information that community youths were mobilising and planning to burn the police station.

“They deposited the three corpses at the police station. We pleaded with them that an accident had happened and it had happened.”

However, she explained that there were two sides to the story as the police officers insisted that the victims were murdered by a hit and run driver.

BREAKING: INEC chairman speaks on rumoured 2023 Ambition, makes revelation

 

The Chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, Prof. Mahmood Yakubu has responded to rumours that he intends to run for President in 2023 on the platform of the All progressives Congress, APC.

In a statement made available to POLITICS NIGERIA on Sunday, signed by his media aide, Rotimi Oyekanmi, the chairman disclosed that such will not happen. The statement read;

“Our attention has been drawn to innuendoes in certain quarters that Nigerians should not be surprised if the INEC Chairman joins the Presidential race or urging him to do so.”

“It is a preposterous proposition. It will not happen.”

“The Chairman remains an umpire committed to free, fair and credible elections. His constitutional responsibilities as the Chief Electoral Commissioner of the Federation and Returning Officer for the presidential election are onerous enough for him to even contemplate straying into extraneous matters at variance with the law, morality and his personal principles.”

“The Chairman will continue to discharge his responsibilities without affection for, or illwill against, any political party or candidate.”

BREAKING: Tinubu Campaign Council DG Dumps APC One Month After Warning Party

 

Abdulmumin Jibrin, Director-General of the Bola Tinubu Support Groups Management Council, has dumped the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) ahead of the 2023 presidential election.

Jibrin’s exit from the APC came exactly one month after he warned that the party may invite doom upon itself if it does not give its 2023 presidential ticket to an aspirant with mass appeal.

“I have done my best for APC. Its time to move on. I will announce my new political party within the next 24 hours Insha Allah. I will make a formal statement in due course,” he announced in a tweet on Saturday.

THE WHISTLER reports that the move may be an early indication that the APC national leader, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, may also dump the ruling party in the event that he does not emerge as its presidential candidate in the forthcoming primary election.

This website earlier reported that Jibrin warned that how the ruling APC comports itself during its forthcoming primary election will determine whether the party will stand or crumble ahead of the general elections.

“I have said it repeatedly how the APC manages its upcoming primaries at every level (states and national) including Presidential will determine [the] survival of the party.

“Anything short of allowing the choice of the people to prevail in the primaries will spell DOOM for the party!” Jibrin had warned in April.

 

2023: Aregbesola refuses to Shake Hands with Omisore at S’west leaders Meeting

 

 

Fresh Information made available to POLITICS NIGERIA on the events that occurred in a meeting between South-West Leaders of the ruling All progressives Congress, APC, on Friday in Lagos has revealed that there is strong animosity between Rauf Aregbesola and Iyiola Omisore.

Reliable sources privy to the details of the meeting revealed that Aregbesola refused to shake hands with Omisore who is now the party’s National Secretary.

It can be recalled that Aregbesola, during the build up to the party primaries in Osun, attacked the national leader of the party, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, a development that did not go down well with the party.

This ultimately led to Omisore’s emergence as Tinubu’s new ally in Osun. Although he greeted Bola Tinubu and was embraced by both Akande and Osoba at the meeting, Aregbesola vehemently refused to neither greet or sit beside Omisore.

This can also be seen in the video below. A source disclosed; “Aregbesola was expected to sit down next to Omisore and Oyetola, but he refused to associate with them, deciding instead to sit far off.”

“Attempts by the elders to make Aregbesola change his mind proved abortive as he said he didn’t want to be associated with Omisore”.

As the Nigerian naira continues to struggle against the United States dollar, the Vice President, Yemi Osinbajo has stepped up his game of clinching the presidential ticket of the All Progressives Congress (APC) with the distribution of $300 each to about 400 presidential nomination delegates in Adamawa and Taraba states.

The Vice President reportedly switched from doling out money in naira to hard currency in order to stay on top of his game.

At a meeting held behind closed doors in Jalingo, the Taraba State capital and Yola, in Adamawa State on Wednesday, Osinbajo gave each delegate to the APC National Convention US $300

“I was handed an envelope containing $300 shortly after the Vice President left the hall,” a delegate told SaharaReporters while displaying the money.

He was said to have pleaded with the delegates to favour his candidacy above all others in the race, arguing that he has more experience in governance at home and on the international stage than all his competitors.

SaharaReporters reported on April 22, 2022, that some presidential delegates of the ruling All Progressives Congress in the South-West on Friday went home with N250,000 each after attending a meeting with Vice President Yemi Osinbajo in Ibadan, Oyo State.

2023: Crisis looms as APC includes Withdrawal letter in Presidential Form

 

Palpable Crisis is looming in the All Progressives Congress, APC over the inclusion of a Withdrawal Letter in the Presidential Nomination Form, POLITICS NIGERIA has gathered.

Some Presidential Aspirants in the party have declined to sign the letter on the basis that it could be a move to force a consensus candidate on them.

This has also been seen as a move to protect the party from court cases/litigation.

The withdrawal letter, seen by this newspaper, has to be signed before a Commissioner of Oath/Public Notary before submission with the following declaration; “I hereby voluntarily withdraw my candidacy from the contest. My withdrawal is in the best interest of our great party, the All Progressives Congress.”

Speaking on the development, Senior Advocate of Nigeria, Babatunde Ogala opined that the addition of the letter “might be wrong.”

“It might lead to a lot of problems including litigation because you can’t ask a man to withdraw from a process that you have not even started.”

He queried why the party will have members purchase the form only to assent to withdrawing from the contest before even participating in the process.

POLITICS NIGERIA reports that the aspirants who have declared from the APC include; Ogbonnaya Onu, Rochas Okorocha, Rotimi Amaechi, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, Yemi Osinbajo, Tunde Bakara, Yahaya Adoza Bello, Emeka Nwajiuba, Godswill Akpabio, Kayode Fayemi, Ibikunle Amosun and Nicholas Felix Nwagbo.
