Woman stabs husband to death over different choice of voting Goodluck or Buhari

Leave a Comment
The Lagos State Police Command have arrested a 26-year-old pregnant woman who allegedly stabbed her husband to death during a quarrel over who would emerge as winner between the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and the All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential candidates, while voting was on-going over the weekend at Ejigbo.

The incident, which threw the densely populated area into chaos, occurred at about 12 noon inside the couple’s one room apartment at 81 Military zone junction Vanguard reports.

There were different accounts on how tragedy struck. A version of the account said the couple had different views on their choice of presidential candidates. While the husband was said to have decided to vote for the PDP, his wife, called Onyiyechi, reportedly chose to vote for the presidential candidate of the APC. An argument which degenerated into a fight over whose choice would hold sway reportedly ensued between them.

In the process, Onyiyechi allegedly stabbed her husband with a kitchen knife in the chest region.
One of the tenants who spoke on condition of anonymity told Vanguard that they did not witness how the suspect allegedly stabbed her husband.

But he explained that,
“ We were all outside waiting to vote when Onyiyechi rushed out, shouting for help. Out of curiosity, we all ran inside, only to discover blood all over the ground, on entering their apartment.

”On closer observation, we noticed that the blood was from her husband chest region. We met him on the ground. Before we could rush him to the hospital, he gave up the ghost.”

He would have probably survived the attack had Onyiyechi called for help early. From all indication, it was clear that she tried to manage the situation immediately the incident occurred. It was when she discovered that the situation had overwhelmed her that she raised alarm.
I do not know the name of her husband. We only know that of his wife, who we fondly call Onyiyechi. The irony of this matter is that she is not cantankerous.

”She has never beaten a little child, let alone to fight with any neighbor. Again on that day, we saw both of them together. They were seen sitting outside, one hour before the incident occurred. Policemen from Ejigbo later came to remove the corpse to the Isolo morgue”.

SAD!!! APC members shot dead in Rivers state, many arrested(viewer discretion advised)

Leave a Comment
This is coming in from Media and Public Affairs to the State Chairman, APC Rivers State.They have sent pictures and report of the election violence taking place in River state.Today’s presidential and National Assembly elections have turned out to be a big nightmare for the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Rivers State, with the members being killed, attacked and disenfranchised in various parts of the State.Graphic photos below;


“Armed militias working for the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) have intensified their killing of APC members. Scores have already been killed and several others marked for elimination. This morning in Kpite Town, Tai Ward 2 and other areas of the State, five people were shot dead by PDP’s armed militia, and that was before accreditation commenced,” Rivers APC Chairman, Dr. Davies Ibiamu Ikanya, said in a statement in Port Harcourt. Pictures of our killed members are attached.

Lamenting his party’s ordeal, Ikanya said: “It is sad that PDP and its collaborators are targeting APC strongholds and chieftains for attacks and killings. To intimidate our people and contrary to the court ruling forbidding the use of the Army in this election, there has been a massive deployment of soldiers in the State with clear instruction to shoot at sight any APC agent that refuses to comply with the evil plot of PDP to write the results of the election at some designated areas of the State in favour of PDP.”

Chief Ikanya gave the following specific horrifying examples of APC’s travails:

•Hon. Chidiebere Okwuwolu, former Commissioner and currently an APC leader, was arrested by police and taken to Olu Obasanjo Police Station in Port Harcourt along with 99 other arrested APC members scattered in various Police Stations in the State.

•At Ubima, the home town of Governor Chibuike Amaechi, the INEC results sheets are currently with Chief Nyesome Wike, the guber candidate of PDP in Rivers State. Governor Amaechi has refused to embark upon any accreditation because of lack of result sheets in all the polling units in the State, a situation contrived by INEC and PDP to make room for PDP to rig the election.

•At Andoni, the Local Government Area of Rivers State APC Chairman, Dr. Davies Ibiamu Ikanya, and Chief Uche Secondus, the National Vice Chairman of PDP and his cousin, Engr Tele Ikuru (the Deputy Governor of Rivers State who few days defected to PDP) hell has been let loose; electoral materials have been hijacked by PDP agents in connivance with the Army that has been threatening to arrest and kill any APC chieftains in sight.

•The Caretaker Committee Chairman of Andoni Local Government area, Esuku Esuku, has been ordered out of Ngo, headquarters of Local Government, by the Joint Task Force (JTF)/army personnel deployed to Ngo, or be killed. •At Abonnema, headquarters of Akuku-Toru Local Government, materials are being distributed from the house of Minister of Sports, Chief Tammy Danagogo, instead of the INEC office, without any security personnel. Danagogo has held the policemen that ought to escort these materials to the polling units hostage and injuring DPO of Abonnema, Mr. Joseph Kayode for daring to accompany Hon Isobo Jack the Commissioner for Urban Development to the Polling Unit, relevant pictures attached.

•PDP thugs hijacked materials and INEC personnel meant for Akuku-Toru Wards 15, 16 and 17. The hijacked materials and men were taken to Freetown, a hinterland coastal community. The attack was led by two youths whose identities are known. •In Tombia, in same Akuku-Toru Local Government, PDP had by Friday night filled the community with Ijaw Youth Council (IYC) bouncers who were attacking APC members and, at the same time, preventing those returning home to vote from entering the town. They were doing so in the presence of soldiers who were too few in number. The Caretaker Committer Chairman and others were injured on Friday. The over 30 APC members that were to act as agents were arrested. •In Buguma, which is the Headquarters of Asari-Toru Local government, policemen were busy all day arresting APC chieftains. •In Gokana Local Government, trained INEC ad-hoc personnel were replaced with untrained manpower suspected to be PDP members. This is believed to have been done in connivance with the LGA Electoral Officer (EO).

•At Opobo/Nkoro, the Local Government Area of Dr. Dakuku Adol Peterside, the gubernatorial candidate of APC, the house of Opobo/Nkoro Caretaker Committee Chairman, Loveday Jaja, was torched after he escaped to avoid being killed by the PDP hoodlums. Electoral materials meant for the Local Government Area have been diverted to John Africa/Ada Tom Pepple Compound area where they are thumb-printing in favour of PDP. One Barrister J.B Pepple was caught with stained thumbs and he admitted to thumb-printing. Another person Alafagha Oko-Jaja had his head broken head and he is seriously bleeding. No one is sure if he will survive. The army has been going around the community harassing people while Chiefs in Kalaibiama are compelling them to vote for President Goodluck Jonathan of PDP. This is said to be on the orders of Chief of Army Staff, Major-General Kenneth Minimah, who is also from the town.
Mr. Harold Peterside a PDP Agent in Unit 006 Ward, Oopbo/Nkoro was caught with INEC Register and fake Results Sheet at the Polling Unit.
•At Oyigbo LGA, 40,000 incident forms were being given out at 6:30 a.m. but they stopped when the APC Agent complained about it. He was however asked to leave the INEC office at about 11:30 a.m. Already, 120,000 incident forms have been to Port Harcourt LGA, 80,000 to Obio/Akpor and 50,000 to Ikwerre LGA. The incident forms are one of the ways PDP plans to use to rig the elections around the country, especially in the South South and South East.

•In Okrika, there was sudden change and appearance of fresh and inadequately trained INEC ad-hoc staff who tried to persuade voters to undergo manual accreditation, claiming that card readers assigned to Okrika LGA polling booths were not working (even without trying them). In a few units where APC supporters insisted on ‘No Card, No Accreditation’, the card readers mysteriously began to work. But in majority of the places manual accreditation is being undertaken. Also in Okrika, there is insufficient delivery of electoral materials by INEC. Up till now no one, not even party agents, has seen the original result collation sheets. The INEC officials claim it is not everything that they must explain. Meanwhile, INEC delivered incident forms far excess of the number of registered voters.

Meanwhile, PDP stalwarts are openly parading bundles of PVC cards in their possession. Rowland Sekibo, accompanied by police and PDP thugs armed with guns, are going around chasing away APC members from doing accreditation. They had done so in wards 1, 7, 8, 9 and 2. They tore the tags of our agents, beat them and chased them away, injuring scores of them.

“We condemn this brazen rape of democracy by PDP in collaboration with INEC and the security agents. It is unacceptable as this is not what democracy should be. PDP should allow Rivers people to vote without guns pointed at their throats,” Dr. Ikanya said in the statement.

Dr Ikanya passed a vote of no confidence on the State Resident Electoral Commissioner, Gesila Khan, declaring that she has failed woefully as she is bent on carrying out her secret agreement with PDP to return victory to the party at all cost. Whatever trash she will announce as the result of today’s election is not acceptable to us and we ask for her immediate transfer and a new date be set for a proper election in Rivers State than the sham and charade that was calculated to rubbish INEC and democracy.

The pictures of our killed members are attached.

Long Live APC!
Long Live Rivers State!!

Photo of a young boy undergoing accreditation in Taraba State has gone viral

Leave a Comment
The pic above has gone viral and is causing controversy as the young boy photographed voting doesn't look 18 since Nigerian laws permit citizens to vote when they are 18 and above. This boy was spotted getting accredited at a polling unit in Taraba state.
It's funny how Nigerians can manipulate  their age to suite different circumstances. If the boy above is a footballer or an entertainer, he would say he is under 10, now that  he wants to vote, he would say he's over 18.

It was observed that the driver suffered severe cuts to the head.The destination of the goods is still unknown but the truckload had over 200 bags of rice in it.

A bomb explosion has been reported at the Women Training Center, Primary School Polling Unit 1, New Layout, Enugu this morning. Officials of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) scampered for safety, Channels TV reports. The bombs were planted in a Honda Accord Car and parked behind the WTC primary school by unknown persons awaiting the commencement of voting.

“Three bombs were found in a Honda Accord car with registration. Number KUJ 971 ABJ,” Vanguard quoted him to have said.

Reports, however, say that the situation has been normalized. But other sources dismissed there was a blast.

Jonathan will win, an ex-president of Nigeria will die.-Read Joshua Iginla's SHOCKING 2015 predictions

Leave a Comment
It seems prophecy is now the selling point in churches.While one prophet is saying God gave him a message that the president is misleading the country and has rejected him, this one is saying God told him Jonathan will remain as the President of Nigeria. I know one thing for sure,God is not the author of confusion.Read Prophet Joshua Iginla shocking 2015 predictions which he disclosed days back during a special service in his church at Kubwa, Abuja.
“I want to say some few things God spoke to me about 2015. For Nigeria, I want to tell you the voice of God. Nigeria will not split. The hand that holds Nigeria is bigger than all. The population in the country. In my vision, I saw a giant hand bigger than the continent of Africa upholding Nigeria. And God said there is nothing kept in His hands that can fall. The prophecy that Nigeria will split won’t come to pass. You can see the signs, but it will never come to pass.
There will be shakings in 2015 and it will be so serious. Both the big and small will feel it greatly. No matter how powerful or well organized 2015 election is, it will be faulted. I see a lot of litigations, disagreements and court cases because the mindset of many prior to the election is so dangerous.
I am not a politician nor belong to any political party, I am just speaking God’s mind. The person sitting on the seat might not be perfect, but he will retain the seat. It’s not guess work. Howbeit, it will be a battle between the lion and the tiger. President Jonathan will win, but he has to pray about his health and so many political blows. I pray the two people that enter the Aso Villa will leave together. That’s why we should pray for the woman beside the president. The president and wife should pray that the first lady would finish the tenure together and not losing one before the end of their tenure.
“Shortly after the election, especially on the night of the election, there will be great vandalisation. I see cars being burnt, lives killed. Counting from the night of the election, these evil will happen six days after the election. I see bitterness, disappointment fire and you might note these states, Bauchi, Yobe, Maiduguri, Lagos, Kaduna, Kano, Rivers, but in the midst of these battles, the storm will calm down. We should pray and watch out for military intervention. God has instructed us to pray and fast from February 1 to February 3, 2014 against military intervention. I will leave the rest coded. When I said there will be disagreement, it will be so strong because it’s like some people are battle ready for war, but God will keep Nigeria.
In 2015, so many great men will fall, not only in Nigeria, but internationally too. So many politicians and powerful people will go down.
“I see a terrorist attack against a high rising building in Nigeria. We have to pray for our financial tower and INEC office. Let’s pray against bomb blast.
Two churches will be under serious attacks. One of them is an orthodox church while the second one is a Pentecostal. One of the two churches is stationed in a satellite town while the second one is in the heart of Abuja city. I also saw gun battles. I mean, men shooting sporadically. They were imported from another city. They were shooting anyhow. We should pray for the city of Gwagwalada and Suleja downward. God will help us. We should pray about this in the month of January and February. Also, many men of God indulging in voodoo or occultism, mixing white with black will experience God’s judgement in 2015. Great judgement in the sense that they will be exposed and lots of things will happen that will be the end of such ministries.
I saw a very popular man of God who is highly respected mourned. The reason is that his wife will be called to glory. It will be a great shock to him because he is highly respected. I am not permitted to mention his name. I see great politicians and ministers in one aircraft. Three prominent faces were among them, but the plane crashed. They should be careful of traveling in group, irrespective of where they are going. I see people pointing accusing fingers at different directions. I also see great fire outbreak in Lagos which would claim lots of lives. By January we have to pray and fast to avert this.
“Bola Ahmed Tinubu should pray that he might finish the political fire he started especially in Lagos to the end. The reason is that even the might of the mighty can be broken.
Specifically, Kogi State Governor should pray to survive 2015. I saw him struggling for breath.
A very popular musician, young artiste who sings secular songs should pray against death. He is like someone trying to sell his soul to the devil and it resulted to death. I am not permitted to mention his name. I see ASUU strike and it will be long and will shake the system, but restored later. I see Russian economy under attack by a strange hand. They have to pray so that a strong country like that won’t be brought low prowling for survival. Their economy will shrink. I see the president under attack. A lot of serious riots against his person. I also see great stars coming out of China and the country getting bigger and better. Their rise will be a great threat to big countries like USA. They will become centre of attraction, economically.
America should pray to be economically relevant in 2015.
“Nigeria should pray not to go to war with Chad. I see a former president of Nigeria giving up the ghost this year. And people trooping down to his home state for burial. His candle light has burned out already and nothing we can do to it. America will experience great terrorist attacks. The fire they are trying to put off in other countries should not burn them in their own house. I see a dark cloud dangling on American economy and this could render them useless. It will lead to great depression. They should prepare because it will be a tough period for them. They should also pray against mid west flood. They should also pray against three major floods that will occur in three states. American president should pray against ill health and there will be an attempt on his life.
I also see great army springing up sophisticated weapons. And that will be from the oil producing states. They will be more fierce and dangerous than Boko Haram. Don’t forget the issue of chemical weapons.

Rivers State Governor, Ameachi has to pray that his political career won’t end abruptly in 2015.
The darkness ahead of him is very great.
In India, I see a top politician dying mysteriously. It will be like an assassination. It will generate lots of controversies and several arguments as to the cause of death. Furthermore, I see an Indian aircraft with lots of passengers crashing with no survivor.
In Ghana, their economy will face serious crisis, but will bounce back. The president will be under severe attacks by the opposition so much that his efforts will be sabotaged.
Liberia will be declared Ebola free in 2015. Their president’s hand will be raised high and strong and God will cause him (her) to be favored. However, he (she) will have a health challenge because I see him (her) being rushed to about two countries. It will be so severe, but God will preserve him. Cameroon president will be under attack and the opposition will revolt. It will be so great that it might lead to restlessness, but he will triumph over it.”
Hmm,people please live your life and reject evil prophecies against you and your family.
