BUHARI'S RE-ELECTION WILL FURTHER DIVIDE IMPOVERISH NIGERIANS

May 06, 2018

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) on Sunday said
President Muhammadu Buhari’s quest for re-election will
further divide and impoverish Nigerians if elected.
It also added that Buhari’s first term scorecard showed anti-
people policies and failure to serve the good of the ordinary
citizens.

The opposition party said what Buhari would want Nigerians
to believe when he spoke at the All Progressives Congress
(APC) ward congress in Daura, Katsina State on Saturday
was in sharp contrast to what he stands for.
The party spokesman, Kola Ologbodinyan made this
disclosure in a press statement made available in Abuja.
In his words, “It is unfortunate that the same President, who,
in an interview with Voice of America (VOA) last week,
could not present any agenda to justify his re-election bid, is
attempting to sway Nigerians with cosmetic patriotism.
“What President Buhari’s handlers fail to understand is that
Nigerians, being direct victims of his misrule, are aware that
the harsh and reckless policies of his incompetent
administration, coupled with his body language, are
expressly responsible for the untold economic hardship,
ethnic division and daily bloodletting currently ravaging our
nation.

“If, indeed, the President was out to serve, as he claimed at
the APC congress, we challenge him to show any of his
2015 campaign promises he has fulfilled or any development
project initiated and implemented to the benefit of the
people in the last three years.
“President Buhari’s second term agenda is directly a quest
to continue to enrich the Presidency cabal, promote
nepotism and protect cronies and corrupt members of the
All Progressives Congress (APC) from the long arms of the
law”.

Ologbodinyan added “President Buhari’s second term is also
a quest to continue to ignore and destroy democratic
principles; to continue trampling on the rights of citizens
and persecution of opposition and perceived political
opponents; to continue the derailing of democracy with
manifest disdain for constitutional order; to continue with
the intimidation and harassment of the legislature and the
judiciary; perpetuation of mediocrity in governance; de-
marketing Nigeria at international fora and to blame
everyone else but himself for manifest incapacity to govern.”
The PDP stated that re-election of the president would surely
lead to the complete destruction of our economy, our
democracy and most importantly the unity of our nation.
It also described the bid for the re-election of the president
as the agenda of his cabal who were desperate to protect
huge economic empires and to cover their atrocities in
government.

7 THINGS MEN LIKE IN WOMEN APART FROM BEAUTY

April 30, 2018

RELATIONSHIP

Good looks are a huge benefit for a girl trying to
catch a man’s attention. But it’s not enough to make
him fall in love and dream about building a long and
happy relationship.
While great relationships » start with mutual attraction, in
the long run, the relationship is destined to fail if the couple
lacks compatibility. Curious to know what men truly look for
when they want to enter a committed relationship? Here is a
list of traits that are far more important than beauty » .

1. Confidence
A good boyfriend strives to make his Significant Other feel
special, but there is nothing sexier than a woman who
understands her own worth. Men might like a girl with a pretty
face and nice figure, but if she is in need of constant
reassurances that they are attractive or cannot accept a
compliment, it will eventually wear a guy down and he will
move on to a woman who is happy with who she is. »

2. A Sense of Humor
A woman might be drop-dead gorgeous, but she will never
win a place in a man’s heart unless she has the ability to
make him laugh. A great sense of humor is the perfect way to
alleviate stress and allows the couple to bond. A witty joke or
an occasional sneaky, light-hearted prank will score a woman
big time points with her man.

3. A listening spirit
Most men appreciate women who are able to just listen – no “
I told you so” lines, no lectures, tips or comments regarding
what you would do if you were in his place. You know… just
sitting, listening (and I mean REALLY listening)… just showing
that you care.
Oh, and that involves being patient as well, understanding that
most men need to “process” their problems before they can
talk about them and learn to say, “Okay, baby, whenever you
want to talk about it – I’m here for you”.

4. A Willingness to Accept His Flaws
One of the keys to a healthy relationship is understanding that
your partner is not perfect.
This is why men want women who are not overly critical and
who don’t seek to change them. If a woman can love him for
his goofy fashion sense or his eccentric personality, they are
on their way to relationship success. »

5. Creativity
It goes without saying that a relationship is more rewarding if
the couple involved have a free-spirit and creative mind. It
always keeps things interesting and creates a sense of
purpose. For example, women who surprise her man by writing
him a story or painting him a picture stands a great chance of
winning his heart forever.

6. A Drama-free Personality
Life is like a roller coaster. Some days will be good and
others will be completely rotten. However, it is unnecessary
for every little problem to explode into a major conflict.
Women who have the right perspective and do not make
mountains out of molehills will find it far easier to win their
man over.

7. A Compromiser
Having disagreements is a perfectly normal part of a
relationship. However, stubbornness and an “my way or the
highway” only leads to misery. This is why men appreciate
women who are able to negotiate and find a solution that
satisfies both partners. This could be true for hobbies (i.e, the
guy takes his girl to a football game in exchange for her taking
him to a musical) but will especially come in handy when it
comes to important matters such as raising children together.

8 SIGNS OF A BAD BOYFRIEND

April 30, 2018

RELATIONSHIP

When you first met him, he treated you like the real
queen » you are. He loved you, cared for you and
pampered you.
But as the days turn into months, he seems more distant, or
worse, he doesn’t have time for you anymore.
Use these 8 early warning signs of a bad boyfriend to find out
if your guy’s just not into you anymore!.

He takes time

He doesn’t make you his priority. He is not eager to pick your
calls and hang out with you. He does things at his own
convenience even when he’s not busy.


He takes you for granted

He doesn’t appreciate the sacrifices you do for him. No
appreciation for the little gestures you do for him. He never
reciprocates anything you do.


No time for you

He is always in a rush to hang up when you call him. He
doesn’t have time for you, but always has time for his friends
and other activities. He is always on social media but he
doesn’t even send you a message.
He makes plans with you and cancels them often. And he
always has a convincing excuse no matter what accusation
you make.
»

All he wants to do is make out

Every time both of you meet, all he wants to do is make out.
He gets annoyed if you just want to talk or hang out doing
something else.


He’s emotionally closed off

An early sign of a bad boyfriend is that he doesn’t want to talk
about the way forward pertaining to your relationship.He says
he likes living in the present, but still makes future plans
about everything else but the relationship.


He has a lot of secrets

He only informs you about the trivial things in his life and with
that he doesn’t even ask for your opinion. Although you dated
him for years, you don’t even know his favorite things.


He’s controlling and manipulative

Although he is not committed to the relationship, he doesn’t
want to see you with other men. He gets very jealous when
you are laughing and having a general conversation with men
whether your colleagues, family or classmates.
He always tries to advise you on how you should lead your
life. And as helpful as he seems, somehow you feel very
stifled and suffocated in the relationship.


He’s in touch with his ex

He always compares you to his ex-girlfriend and sought for
her opinions in matters relating to your relationship or his
personal life. He finds time to meet his ex and surprisingly, he
doesn’t seem enthusiastic about you joining them each time
he meets his ex. They’re just friends, right?

NIGERIAN HERDSMEN DON'T CARRY GUN - BUHARI TELL TRUMP

April 30, 2018

NEWS

President Muhammadu Buhari » has reiterated that
herdsmen in Nigeria only carry sticks and
occasionally machetes to cut foliage for their cattle.
The President said this on Monday, April 30, 2018, in
Washington DC during the bilateral talk with U.S. President
Donald Trump .

He again blamed the ongoing killing in Nigeria on the late
Libyan dictator Muammar Gaddafi fighters, who he said fled to
West African countries after Gaddafi's death.
Buhari said, "The problem of herders in Nigeria is a very long
historical thing. The Nigerian herders don’t carry anything more
than a stick and occasionally a machete to cut down foliage
and give it to their animals, these ones are carrying AK-47.
"So, people should not underrate what happened in Libya. 43
years of Gaddafi, people were recruited from Sahel and trained
to shoot and kill. With the demise of Gaddafi they moved to
other countries and region and carried the experience with
them."

The President also thanked the United States for its support in
the fight against Boko Haram insurgency and its efforts in
trying to get rid of terrorism across the world.
Anti-Boko Haram war
"We are grateful to the United States for agreeing to give us the
aircraft that we asked for. We are even more grateful for the
physical presence of the United States military officials in
Nigeria. Our institutions in Nigeria, for training them and going
to the Northeast to see how they are performing", Buhari said.
"The commitment of the United States to get rid of terrorism
across the world, we have fast earned experience from that and
we are grateful for it."

Ambassador to the U.S. Sylvanus Nsofor , Ministers of Foreign
Affairs, Justice, and Trade and Investment, and Governors of
Plateau and Ogun.

2019: BUHARI REVEALS HOW HE WILL DESTROY CABAL IF HE WINS ELECTION

April 30, 2018

POLITICS

Ahmed Buhari, the initiator of Ahmed Buhari Youth
Movement, has said that he will kill ‘cabalism’ if he wins the
2019 presidential elections.

Buhari, who was speaking with journalists on Sunday in
Ilorin, also explained that his interest in vying for the office
of the president of Nigeria was informed by the need to
have a generational change in the leadership of the country.
The geologist by training, noted that the youth had lost hope
in the current system of governance which had created a
wide gulf between the young and old generation.
“Most importantly, our involvement is going to be an
enlightenment to young people that it is true that we can do
something.

“To let them know that the reason we are doing this is
because we understand that if we do not allow responsibility
to be transferred from one generation to next generation at
the right time, a vacuum will be created.
“If this vacuum is created, a lot can go into that vacuum. It
could be herdsmen; it could be Boko Haram; it could be
kidnapping; it could be baby factory; it could be armed
robbery, it could be a lot of things.

“It is because these young people do not feel any need for
them to be looking up for something that hope is lost and
so we are trying to revamp young people to understand that
they have to participate in politics.
“While they participate in politics, they shouldn’t make
money politics a front burner for them. They should be more
concerned about how they will even support aspirants so
that when they get to the office, those aspirants will be
answerable to them.


“This will kill totally the whole idea of cabalism and see how
we can have aspirants who will emerge and become
answerable to those people who elected them because if
you do support an aspirant, he is going to come back to you
and support you, not by giving you the money you gave him,
but by giving you the best of democracy.
“What we mean is that we want to have a country that would
be formed on a united ground.
“United ground in the sense that no matter where you come
from, regardless of your ethnicity; regardless of your religion;
regardless of your social status; regardless of your political
party; ideological affiliations; regardless of gender;
regardless of your age; you will want to be part of a new
Nigeria.
“The new Nigeria that we are looking for is new Nigeria that
every one of us would claim without mentioning where we
are from.
“We want a new Nigeria where there won’t be a discussion
on state of origin, quota system and all of those things that
always tend to divide us will be eradicated,” he said.

MUSLIM SOCIETY CONDEMN TRUMP STATEMENT AGAINST KILLING OF CHRISTIANS IN NIGERIA

April 30, 2018

NEWS

The Muslim Students’ Society of Nigeria (MSSN) has faulted
statement credited to United States President Donald Trump
on the killing of Christians in Nigeria.
The Amir (President) of the MSSN in Lagos State, Dr Saheed
Ashafa in a press statement said Trump’s statement would
cause further division in Nigeria.
During Buhari’s visit to the Whiet House,Trump said
the“killing of Christians in Nigeria was unacceptable” to the
American government.

Reacting, Ashafa considered Trump’s comment as one-
sided and uncomplimentary, warning Buhari to be cautious
of relationship with the US.
The Muslim students’ leader alleged that Trump’s comment
signalled his hatred for Muslims and Islam in Nigeria.
He said, “Trump’s offer shows that he is myopic and
uncivilised. The pronouncement to help fight killings of
Christians in a nation where innocent souls are wasted
without recourse to their affiliations is a call to separatism.
“One would wonder if Trump is not aware or deliberately
ignored the murder of several Muslims in a mosque at the
University of Maiduguri, or those killed in mosques in Yobe
and Zamfara; and many other parts of the country.

“We should know that the offer is a reflection of Trump’s
hatred for Islam and Muslims. Such offer at this point in
time is divisive, ‘unafrican‘ and insincere.
“World leaders should ignore insinuations that Muslims are
not against terrorism, it would be more beneficial to tackle
insurgency with utmost neutrality.”
“Let me reiterate that as Muslims we condemn and reject all
forms of terrorism, insurgency and oppression in whatever
name being perpetrated.
“We should also remember that in Nigeria, most families are
composed of Christians and Muslims alike, just as we also
have other faithful.
“Trump’s call for separatism when the world is advocating
for collectivism is not a healthy offer.”

BOKO HARAM GROUP DEMANDS APOLOGY FROM UNICEF

April 30, 2018

NEWS

A civil society organisation, Coalition Against Terrorism and
Extremism, CATE, has demanded explanation from the
United Nations International Children’s Fund (UNICEF) over
its actions towards the activities of the Boko Haram sect in
Nigeria.

The group is demanding the UNICEF to urgently apologise to
Nigeria following its various allegations against the Nigerian
military, which it said had been confirmed to be false and
targeted at escalating terror activities in the country.
UNICEF had alleged recently that the Nigerian military has
raped over 20 girls in IDP Camps in Borno State.
The development forced the Nigerian Army to declare three
persons working for the agency persona non-grata in the
North East, Nigeria.
The three persons were: Priscillia Hoveyda, Maher Farea and
Milen Kidane.
CATE, while briefing newsmen on Monday in Jos, the
Plateau State capital, called on the agency to come clean on
the alleged nature of support they have been offering Boko
Haram, which it said it had revealed countless times before
now but authorities failed to act.
Onoja Gabriel, national president of CATE, who addressed
the press, urged the Nigerian Government to set up
monitoring committee to keep an eye on what groups like
UNICEF are doing in the country
His statement reads in full.

“Our decision to hold this event was informed that several
days after these troubling reports first surfaced UNICEF has
not satisfactorily cleared itself of the grievous revelations
that it has joined the organizations that are working for the
destruction of Nigeria.
“As a refresher, we invite you to recall how our organization,
the Coalition Against Terrorism and Extremism (CATE) had
risen up against groups that previously hid under the guise
of being International Non-Governmental Organizations
(NGOs) wreak havoc on our collective psyche and to
compromise our lives by overt and covert support for
terrorism. We alerted Nigerians in those dark days to how
certain organizations always timed their reports to coincide
with when the military was on the verge of dealing decisive
blows against Boko Haram Terrorists. Such reports
succeeded in several instances until Nigerians became wise
to this devilish antic.

“For the avoidance of doubts, the strategy was to
periodically release reports that threaten individual troop
and commander with the prospect of keeping a date with
the “International Criminal Court (ICC) for daring to fight for
the security of their country. At institutional level, the reports
destroy the reputation of the military services while on the
national level is damages the ability of Nigeria to partner
with allies thereby denying the entire country of the support
needed to defeat terrorism conclusively. In the time it takes
to repair the damage so done, Boko Haram terrorists would
have exploited the lag to regroup, re-arm and again become
deadly even when it had previously suffered defining
defeats.

“Nigerians, who realized the threat posed to their existence
and that of their dear fatherland, rose up to challenge this
international fraud. The Coalition Against Terrorism and
Extremism (CATE) was at the forefront of that struggle to
liberate Nigeria from the claws of these modern-day
imperialists hiding under NGOs. Let us quickly point out that
we were called names for standing up to the oppressors at
that time but we are encouraged by the renewed focus the
military had to fight terrorism once we successfully beat the
bullies out our land.
“Unfortunately, gentlemen of the press, the news we have
for you today is distressing because a new entity, UNICEF
has emerged as the latest replacement of all the evil
contraptions that were earlier deployed in the attempt to
incapacitate the Nigerian Military and strengthen terrorists.
The irony of this development is sickening considering the
noble role that this organization is ordinarily meant to be
playing.

“We have since learnt that people working for UNICEF have
in different countries and at different times usually lend
themselves and the name of the organization to be
deployed in undermining the countries on behalf of certain
international clients and client-nations. We however do not
want to conclude at this stage that UNICEF personnel behind
this latest attack on Nigeria do so without the knowledge of
the organization, for they would have been openly
sanctioned if this were the case.
Our sense of alarm was further heightened when we learnt
that this same group trickily rendered thousands of women
barren in Kenya using the lifesaving vaccination programme
to commit the crime. An organization that can exploit the
sanctity of vaccines to do evil cannot be trusted under any
condition and we do not even know what other damages
they have done to vulnerable people in our population that
they have worked with.

“The Coalition Against Terrorism and Extremism (CATE)
therefore demand an explanation over its role in the
escalated efforts to wrongly indict the Nigerian Military and
government for violating the Child Protection Act by cooking
up its Global Horizontal Notes (GHN) in a manner that will
deny the country of international support. We demand to
know why the atrocities committed by terrorists are being
attributed to government. They must come clean of the
nature of support they have been offering Boko Haram and
at whose behest.

“We warn in the strongest terms possible that CATE has the
wherewithal and network to mobilize the Nigerian civil
society to force UNICEF out of the north east if they fail to
offer plausible explanation. Our coalition will ensure this
happens except Nigerians can be convinced that UNICEF did
not commit the acts credited to it. The situation in the north
east is too fragile to have questionable people playing
international cowboys with our collective safety in Nigeria.
‘In view of the many instances of war entrepreneurs posing
as international NGOs, we call on the Federal Government to
set up monitoring committee to keep an eye on what groups
like UNICEF are doing in the country. This must be backed
with a periodic vetting of all NGOs in Nigeria and their
operations. The time when unmerited respect makes us
accept poison from international organizations is past and
there is no going back to such.”

PRESIDENT MUHAMMADU BUHARI DISCUSSED WITH DONALD TRUMP

April 30, 2018

NEWS

President Muhammadu Buhari visited the US for a bilateral meeting with President Donald Trump of the US. The president held a bilateral meeting with his American counterpart on Monday, April 30 before their press conference. 

President Trump had commended President Buhari for the success recorded in the fight against corruption. He also said the US was ready to support Nigeria in the war against insurgency noting that the country just sold 12 Tucano fighter jets to Nigeria. President Buhari in his reaction applauded the US for the support provided and promised that Nigeria will not relent in the war on insurgency. He also vowed that his administration will work to make sure that the rest of the abducted Chibok and Dapchi girls will be rescued. Read full statement below: Good day, Ladies and Gentlemen of the media. It has been a pleasure and honour to visit Washington DC at the kind invitation of President Donald Trump. Nigeria and the United States share a long history of close and cordial relations, which encompass political, economic, military, social and cultural cooperation. Our two countries maintain a strategic partnership for peace and security, conflict resolution as well as the global fight against terrorism. We also share common features as secular federal states, practicing a similar democratic model of governance and committed to the universal values of fundamental human rights and freedoms, free enterprise, social justice and the rule of law. President Trump and his team and myself and the Nigerian team discussed issues related to security, trade, governance, human rights and humanitarian crises. SECURITY We congratulated the leaders of North and South Korea on their historic summit and we applaud them for the positive commitment they have made towards the denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula. President Trump deserves a great deal of credit for his statesmanly role in transforming so dramatically the course of events in that region. We also congratulated the US government on the important role it played in the defeat of ISIS, although some of the remnants have found their way to the Sahel region. We recognized the strong US support in our fight against terrorism and also appreciated very much the US’ agreement to sell twelve Super Tucano A-29 war planes and weapons to Nigeria to effectively fight terrorism. To contain the spate of insurgency in Nigeria, the Federal government has adopted a multi-sectoral approach, involving relevant government agencies to address the socio-economic and political dimensions while the Armed Forces of Nigeria assist the civil authority to provide security and maintain law and order. As part of efforts to address emerging cases of insurgency in the country, the Nigerian Military adopted a non-kinetic counter terrorism/counter insurgency approach code-named “Operation safe corridor”, to de-radicalize, re-habilitate, and re-integrate willingly surrendered Boko-Haram members into the larger society. This programme is currently embarking on a number of projects including: skill acquisition centers and integrated farms; comprising poultry, fish pond and greenhouse farming, among others. A number of international partners, including the International Organization for Migration have contributed to the success of Operation Safe Corridor. We indicated that we would appreciate whatever support we could also get from the US. We expressed gratitude for US support in the reconstruction and rehabilitation efforts in the North East of Nigeria, as well as humanitarian assistance to the Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs), through agencies such as the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) and other international partners. The USA has been to date the biggest contributor to the humanitarian response and last year gave approximately 500 million US Dollars in cash and in-kind contributions through the United Nations and other inter-governmental organizations. These have mainly supported protection activities, health, food assistance and shelter. We are doing all we can to secure the release of the remaining abducted school girls from Dapchi and Chibok. In this context, we will continue to welcome US collaboration in intelligence gathering, hostage negotiations and information-sharing. VIOLENCE BETWEEN HERDSMEN AND FARMERS The government is taking necessary steps to promote the peaceful co-existence of herdsmen and farmers, by focusing on boosting security and enforcing legislation that will guarantee herders and farmers access to land; TRADE AND INVESTMENT I extended sincere congratulations to President Trump and his government on the impressive performance of the US economy under their watch. Our aim is to diversify our own economy by focusing on agriculture and food security; power and infrastructure. We have cut the importation of rice by about 90% thereby saving a significant amount of money. We very much welcomed increased US investment in the Nigerian economy, especially in the non-oil sector. Economic relations between Nigeria and the United States are anchored on three major instruments, namely: the Bi-National Commission (BNC), Trade and Investment Framework Agreement (TIFA) and the Africa Growth and Opportunity Act (AGOA). The Bi-National Commission in particular, comprising bilateral political, economic, developmental and humanitarian partnership, is a basic economic framework for engagement between our two countries. Nigeria’s trade volume with the United States stood at $6.07 billion according to 2016 statistics and comprised $4.176 billion worth of Nigerian exports to the US and $1.894 billion US exports to Nigeria. We urged greater effort to increase these figures substantially. GOVERNANCE AND ANTI-CORRUPTION We thanked the US government very much for the cooperation we have received in our effort to recover stolen funds. Our two governments have put the machinery in place for their respective Attorneys-General to collaborate in ensuring the return to Nigeria of over five hundred million United States Dollars ($500) of looted funds siphoned away in banks around the world. In this connection, we congratulated the US government on launching a Kleptocracy Asset Recovery Initiative which was spearheaded by the US Department of Justice (DOJ) Asset Forfeiture and Money Laundering.

Why Candidates Apply for JAMB Change of Course/Institution

There are obviously three good reasons why a candidate may need to change his/her jamb choice of course or institution or both:

LOW JAMB SCORE: After the release of Jamb results, the next thing to face is admission screening exercise and admissions. Now take for instance that someone applied for a federal university of technology, Minna who will probably fix a cut-off mark of 200 and above; if such candidate scored less than 200, it simply means he/she has lost the admission. In this case the change of institution to a state-owned/private University becomes necessary. State universities generally fix cut-off marks below 200.

INCOMPLETE O”LEVEL RESULTS: In this case candidates who may have ran into deficiency of required credit passes in some key/relevant subjects may decide to go for change of course to accommodate themselves.

IJAW YOUTHS ADVISED BUHARI IN WHAT TO ASK FROM DONALD TRUMP

April 30, 2018

POLITICS

The Ijaw Youth Council, IYC, has urged President
Muhammadu Buhari to seek foreign assistance from the
United States, US, and other foreign countries in tackling the
herdsmen menace in Nigeria.
The call was made by IYC President and Secretary, Eric
Omare and Henry Iyalah, respectively, in an open letter to
Buhari.
The council also warned of a likely breakdown of law and
order in the country ahead the 2019 general election if the
Federal Government failed to deal with the herdsmen
menace.

According to IYC, “We urge Mr. President to use your foreign
trips, including your trip to the United States, to seek support
to stop the menace of herdsmen’s persistent killings and
ensure free, fair and credible elections and not support to
win election for yourself.
“The interest of the generality of Nigerians should be
uppermost in your mind over and above your personal
ambition to win re-election as President, in the interest of
peace and security of our country, Nigeria. We also hope
that you will not tell President Donald Trump that Nigerian
youths are lazy.”
IYC also faulted the alleged manhandling of Kogi West
Senator, Dino Melaye by police officers.
The body said the alleged “Gestapo” treatment of Melaye
was seen as a “strategy to silence opposing voices in the
build up to the next general elections.

Recall that Melaye was alleged to have jumped off a police
van in Abuja while being transported to Kogi State to face
criminal charges.
Following the incident, the lawmaker sustained injuries and
is currently at the intensive care unit of the National Hospital
in Abuja.
However, IYC alleged condemned the alleged ill-treatment
meted at “political players” by security agencies.
The council added, “Mr. President, the IYC is concerned by
the rising political tension in Nigeria arising from the
treatment of some political players by the security agencies.
“It is highly condemnable that people who express opposing
views to your administration are being harassed and
maltreated.

“The hallmark of democracy is the right to hold an opinion
and where this right is absent, then democracy is dead.
“The treatment being given to political figures such as
Senator Dino Melaye and others is highly unacceptable and
condemnable.
“The insinuation in the public is that the Gestapo treatment
is part of your strategy to silence opposing voices in the
build up to the next general elections.”
