Brain-Injured Governor Suntai To Be Replaced

Two top level political sources in Taraba State have told SaharaReporters that the days of Danbaba Suntai as governor of the state may be numbered. “Alhaji Danbaba Suntai will be replaced soon,” said one of the sources. As a first step towards Mr. Suntai’s removal, the national leadership of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) today inaugurated a committee to determine the status of his office. Mr. Suntai was seriously injured in October, 2012 when a small plane he was piloting from Jalingo crashed near the airport in Yola, the capital of Adamawa. The governor was trying to land the aircraft at the time of the accident.Speaking to members of the seven-man committee in Abuja on Monday, the PDP’s national chairman, Bamanga Tukur, said the party decided to intervene in order to resolve the political situation created by Mr. Suntai’s accident. One of the tasks given to the committee was to discover and report the political repercussions among key stakeholders of the governor’s sickness and absence.“Interact and establish the most effective approach to reduce to the barest minimum, the fears of all the contending interest in Taraba State,” Mr. Tukur told the committee members.The PDP chairman added: “Fast track the process of constitutional adherence as it affects the current status of the office of the governor of Taraba State.“Ensure that in all practical implications, the PDP Taraba emerge stronger and more united in responding to all the partisan challenges arising thereafter in the state.“Consider and report any other matter that is, in the opinion of this committee, relevant in the resolution of the political condition of the state.”
Members of the committee are Hope Uzodinma, Ahmed Gulak, Shittu Mohammed, Bala Buhari, Richard King, Bolajoko Doherty, and Abubakar Garda, who is serving as secretary. Following the plane crash, Mr. Suntai was briefly treated at the National Hospital, Abuja before being flown to Germany for continued urgent treatment. Despite efforts by PDP officials to paint a rosy picture of Mr. Suntai’s recovery, SaharaReporters revealed that the governor had suffered significant brain damage that rendered him incapable of recognizing visitors, including members of his family. “Some of us told the leadership of our great party in Abuja that we cannot go on telling ourselves lies about the condition of Alhaji Suntai,” said one of our sources. “They now realized that what we’re saying is true. That’s why the committee has been set up,” he added. Mr. Suntai was moved to the US and is being treated at undisclosed hospital in the East Coast. A source said the governor’s brain impairment remains a serious issue.Mr. Tukur asked the committee to submit its report within two weeks.

“Obasanjo Is The Cause Of Nigeria’s Problems” -Rev. Chris Okafor


Rev Chris Okafor is a renowned man of God whose signs and wonder cut-across of spheres of life. Though, he has been swimming in several controversies lately but according to those in the know, he has been living above several obstacles that confront him. Recently, the fair in complexion pastors who was kidnapped last year but released unhurt state the cause of Nigeria problems and how to tackle it saying   “Boko Haram issue is not the only issue bedevilling the nation. Boko Haram issue is as a product of FESTAC 77. And you know the day you sow a seed is not the same day that the seed produce. It goes to a level when it’s mature then, you start seeing the fruit. So, if you go through one of my sermon, the revelation of dedication and what happens. If you think Boko haram is the main issue, what about the plane crash that has been happening, is it Boko Haram? What about people vandalising the oil or those that kidnap? What you must understand is that, the then Head of State, Olusegun Obasanjo when he was the military head of state, in 1977 he brought many Juju (many gods of other nation) to Nigeria. So, Nigeria was polluted spiritually. There was satanic and demonic infiltration into the country. When these gods came into Nigeria, there was no cleansing. It was the president who organized it and that was what made it powerful. And he never understood the spiritual undertow. Remember before then Nigeria was living in peace. Remember that country like Sudan where they always have war brought their gods of war into Nigeria. And country like Rwanda that always experience genocide and other countries where all these evil things happen also participated in the festival. In case you don’t know, it is the spiritual that control the physical. There are many things you see physical but you don’t know what is behind it. They brought those gods into the country and now the seed that was sow then have started germinating. It was not Jesus they were celebrating, they were celebrating Satan. So, all these spirit are the one disturbing the country now. This is the result we are seen; Kidnapper, electricity failure and Boko Haram. It will also interest you to know that, Nigeria has one of the best military in the country yet they’ve not been able to arrest Boko Haram.” The man of God concluded

Lagos Landlord To Face Court For N50m House Rent ... How He Duped 220 Nigerians

Wonder they say shall never cease as Lagos Landlord connived with developer to defraud 220 Nigerian of over 50 Million Naira house rent. Information reaching us from the grapevine has it that, the landlord whose real name is Ganiu Davies but popularly known as Gabovis has two land around Ojodu axis that he gave to developer to develop for him and also use it to rent so as to be able to recoup their money. We were told that the house is 27 room apartments but out of greediness the developer, we learnt rented it out to more than 220 people. According to one of the victims, Olaniyi Olaniran who is a staff of Globacom Communication, he said “I was introduced by an agent that he has an apartment in No 13 Bashiru Street Ojodu beside GTBank, Lagos. And I went to inspect the apartment. It was 27 rooms flat and I paid for two bedrooms flat. The total fund I paid was five hundred and forty thousand naira (540,000) some other pay 1million naira and the total money paid to them is over 50million naira after calculation. I was asked to come and collect the key to my apartment on a particular date, only for me to get there, I discover that other people have been given the same keys. So, we are over two hundred and twenty that was given just 27 keys. And it is a sad one because some of us have been homeless. Some of us stay in church, sleep in the office. Immediately we realized there is foul play, we try to reach the developer but they are nowhere to be found. And we reported the case to the police, Ojodu Police Station to be precisely but we find out that there is a foul play between the owner of the property and the police. The same thing happened when we got to Area F Police Station. In this case, we don’t trust the police, so we want the government to come to our rescue. I’ve paid them money since august last year and I was to move in last year November. The name of the owner is Ganiu Davies but popularly known as Gabovis, we met with him and he promised to give us back our money but he want the court to terminate the agreement he had with the developer first. Up till now, nothing is happening.  Also speaking on the issue was Mr. Benedict Onoha who is also a staff of MTN Nigeria, he said “I got to know about the apartment through a friend of mine who stay in the same street. But unfortunately, he was staying in smaller apartment and he decided to move into a bigger apartment at 18 Jide Taiwo Street Ojodu, Lagos. And as you can see, the same developer who perpetrated this illicit act at 13 Bashiru did the same thing at 18 Jide Taiwo Street Ojodu. There at Jide Taiwo, the list we have collected so far is 29 in number and it is amounted 8,120,000(eight million one hundred and twenty thousand) this man collected different amount of money from different people. I’ve paid 400,000. The receipt he issue to me is bearing Alhaji Abiodun Venture with fake address while he gave other people Strong Homes receipt with different false address. We got to know that it was the same developer because we pay to them in person and we all paid to the same person but they gave us different receipt. In fact, some paid directly to the landlord but he asked them to meet the developer for their receipt which they did. The initial 200,000 naira that I paid was paid cash which they issue me receipt, so when the melting pressure that I have balance up my money before I can pack in, I insisted that I won’t pay the total money until I get the key to the apartment. So, he try to convinced me on why I should paid the money that they actually need the money because they don’t have sufficient fund again to complete the building. After that, I paid another 100,000 naira twice into their IBTC account number making 400,000 naira. And behold, this man operates with different accounts, he has account with IBTC, First Bank, Diamond account and all these account has different names. So, we are asking the media because we know your job is to inform and correct norms within the society. We want you to help us tell the world about this scam and help us to draw this issue to the attention of the government. We need the intervention of the government because as it stands now it looks as if we have lose hope with the police because they are not helping us on this issue. With what they have done so far, the IPO who is in the criminal investigating department as of last week told us that, one of the accomplice has been charge to court and the court will sit on the 10th of May 2013. We asked him, who and who accompany you to the court? At least, he defrauded, so people should follow him to the court to testify against him and that is why we are crying asking the government and media to assist us in exposing all these criminals.” Buttressing their point is Miss Blessing Nwaze, a final year student of the University of Lagos from the department of Business Admin saying “This issue has been going for a while now and we’ve reported so many authorized offices. Some legal places we know that can help us recoup our money but nothing has been done so far. Obviously, from the perspective where I’m seeing things from, this man known as Gabovis (Bolaji Davis) has his way around Lagos. Most of the times, before we go to most of these offices, we discovered that they give us little or no attention which means someone must have pay them to keep mute which we cannot pay. Even when we contributed 200,000 to pay one lawyer, Bar. Ubani, I heard he’s human right activist. To my surprise, he returned our money few days after we paid him the money saying that he can no longer fight the case for us. And this is someone who called himself a human right activist who is supposed to be fighting for the masses. Fine! We knew he used to be one of Baba’s lawyers but that does not mean he should not protect the interest of the masses. Now, Baba (Gabovis) in conjunction with the developers have connive together to dupe us. Now, Ubani has refused to fight for us, maybe Baba has paid him off, he gave us back our money and we collected it in good faith and we are praying to God that the government we be able to do something to so that justice will prevail. I paid 230,000 naira for a room self contain and that money was just for one year. I paid on the 11th of February 2013 and I was asked to move in on the 28th of the same month. On getting there, I saw crowd in front of the house as if they are having military training.” She concluded
Meanwhile, after all said and done we learnt Governor Babatunde Raji Fashola (SAN) has directed them to Inspector general of Police to handle the case with immediate effect.
