  MAMBILLA, OBASANJO & THE SCAPEGOAT MENTALITY By Dr Olu Agunloye, former Minster of Power and Steel. 14 September 2023 PREAMBLE In August 2022, Mr Simon Kolawole first released his widely circulated contract-statement: _“Who will Love this Country?”_ as front page of the _ThisDay Newspapers_ of 21 August 2022 and again in August 2023, acting on the instructions of a former Minister of Power. The contract-statement is misleading, false, and malicious. It is calculated to divert attention from the wrongdoings of some former Power Ministers and other Government officials in respect the Mambilla Power Project. In 2022, I ignored the write-up but now that the former President has reacted to the same article that he appeared not to have seen in 2022, I will give a measured response. THE CABLE NEWS STORY _The Cable News_ story credited to Pa Obasanjo about the Mambilla Power Project gave me much concern not because they were incorrect, but because they were attributed to our *Baba A...

 LATE KABIR BALA WAS YOUR THUG- KOGI SDP STATE SECRETARY TO GOV. YAHAYA BELLO It has become pertinent to respond to the allegations making the rounds recently submitted at a press conference organized by the Kogi state government in a bid to salvage its already smudged and dainted image in the eyes of the world.   The press conference which held on the 10th of July 2023 picked on the sensibilities of the Social Democratic Party and Nigerians once again by alluding and drawing a connection between them and the late hardened criminal in person of Kabir Bala who was extrajudicially eliminated by the police at the behest of the state government led by Gov. Yahaya Bello.   Even as hard as the government tries to launder its image by throwing blames and trying to tie innocent people to their own crime, the reality still stares them in the face. The mirror is sparkling clean reflecting the image of their own malfeasances right back at them.   Any halfsmart person would add...

 GOV. YAHAYA BELLO: A RECURRING THREAT TO DEMOCRACY AND NATIONAL UNITY; KOGI SDP SECRETARY, DR. AROME OKEME The state executives of the Social Democratic Party have found it necessary indeed to address the members of the press and, through them, Nigeria as a whole on the heightened threat to democracy and its ideals, and security of lives and property posed by the uncouth and uncivilized actions of the state government.  Today, 9th of July, at about 9am, urchins, thugs and arsonists, unarguably on the payroll of the state government launched an unprovoked assault on the secretariat of the Social Democratic Party/Muri/Abene campaign office in Kogi State destroying and burning party flags, campaign banners and sacrilegiously, the Nigerian national flags.  It is no longer news that the Social Democratic Party over the years has suffered tremendous losses in the hands of the ruling party led by Governor Yahaya Bello as it has always posed the biggest threat to his continuity ...

 A CONDEMNATION OF THE EXTRA JUDICIAL KILLING OF CITIZENS KABIR OKWO BALA AND MRS ATIMA ABDULLAHI.  The Murtala Yakubu Ajaka Gubernatorial Campaign Organization is alarmed by the official confirmation of  the Kogi State Commissioner of Police, Mr Akeem Yusuf that the extra judicial execution of an All Peoples Congress (APC) Chieftain,  Mallam Kabir Okwo Bala  and a housewife, Mrs Atima Abdullahi by gunmen unleashed on the Ejule Community  of Ofu Local Government Area in the early hours of this morning was masterminded by the State Government of Alhaji Yahaya Bello.  We are indeed shocked that a Governor and the Chief Security officer of a state could plot the cold blooded murder of citizens he had sworn to protect and defend on the alter of desperate politics.  We are aware that the late Okwo was accused of several felonies by the state commissioner of police after his execution but we totally reject the use of these allegations rightly or wrongly...
