ENTERTAINMENT: Adekunle Gold finally announces father’s death

Prince Hakeem Adeyemi Kosoko, father to popular singer, Adekunle Gold is
dead.
Kosoko reportedly died after a brief illness on 27th May 2019.
The Singer who confirmed the death in a tribute on his Instagram page on
Sunday expressed sadness over his father’s demise.
He wrote, “ I feel a great sense of loss to officially announce that after we
fought so hard, my father passed on the 27th of May, 2019.
“My father was a GREAT man. He has always been the man I’ve looked up
to. Growing up, I watched him work so hard for so little. He was very honest
and has never been interested in shortcuts.
“Hard work and integrity meant everything to him. My father. I will always
remember, what he said in this statement: “I’ve been in service far too long
to let quick money ruin my reputation”. This was my Father.
“He is forever to be remembered as a teacher. My teacher.We all know that
teachers weren’t big earners but my dad would ensure we always had
everything we ever needed.
“My Dad was so loving towards me. My father often wanted me to toughen
up, it’s funny because he was the opposite tender and sentimental about me
and my sisters.
“Sadly, I was not done making him proud, there are dreams I had with him in
the picture, I don’t know guys, I really wasn’t done.
“ I find little solace in something I read today. “God knows how to write
straight on crooked lines” This area is very crooked for me, these are depths
of grief that I have never dived. But God…God will figure it out.
“ I thank you all for your prayers, your support, your kind words. None of
them have gone unnoticed. I pray the love you’ve shown me will be
accorded you in your time of need.
“To my Dad, the greatest man I will ever know in this life and the next, sun re
o!Adieu papa. May your soul rest in perfect peace.”

PDP condemns closure of AIT and Ray Power, says its an attempt to gag the media

Press statement from the PDP The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) condemns, in its totality, the unrelenting attempt by the All Progressives Congress (APC)-controlled federal government to cage the media as being witnessed in the ferocious attacks on Africa Independent Television (AIT) by government agencies, particularly the National Broadcasting Commission (NBC). The party says it is evident that the attack on AIT is targeted at intimidating and gaging the media, repress constitutionally guaranteed freedom of speech and stifle public opinion, particularly as related to the determination by Nigerians to retrieve the stolen Presidential mandate at the tribunal. This clamp down on AIT as well as earlier siege on other media houses and journalists under the APC administration, ostensibly point to a plot to frighten and asphyxiate the media, shut down outlets perceived to hold dissenting views and ultimately foist a siege mentality on our citizenry to restrain their demand

It could be recalled that the 2019 presidential election was held on February 23 and the incumbent, President, Muhammadu Buhari, was declared the winner within a couple of days after the election. On May 29, he was formally sworn in as President for his second four-year tenure. However, there are apprehensions that the economy is currently at a standstill following the prolonged absence of ministers to drive government’s policies and programmes. In 2015 when President Buhari was first elected into office, he spent six months before appointing a cabinet, a situation that was largely responsible for plunging Nigeria into a recession the following year. Experts fear that the nation may be headed on a similar path as the President does not seem to be in a hur

Justice Okon Abang on Friday ruled that the having been declared by the Returning Officer as the winner of the February 23 senatorial election for Imo West Senatorial District (Orlu Zone), INEC has no reason not to issue him certificate of return. Justice Abang overruled the submission by candidates of the PDP, Jones Onyeriri and APGA, Osita Izunaso that the matter ought to be taken to the election petitions tribunal since it has become a post-election matter which robbed the court of jurisdiction under sections 285, 251(1) of the 1999 Constitution. The judge held that petitions to the election tribunal under Section 133 of the Electoral Act should be made by the losers, and not the person declared winner whether under duress or not. “The reliefs sought by the plaintiff (Okorocha) does not relate to
