‘I’ve not been appointed MD of Maritime Services’ – Edward Onoja

Former Deputy Governor to the immediate past Governor of Kogi State, Alhaji Yahaya Bello, Chief Edward David Onoja (Olimene ATA Igala), has denied a new appointment as Managing Director of Maritime Services.

DAILY POST recalls several congratulatory messages to Chief Edward David Onoja (Olimene ATA Igala) on social media over a purported new appointment.

But Chief Edward David Onoja (Olimene ATA Igala), who was recently appointed by President Ahmed Bola Tinubu as Board Member, South East Development Commission (SEDC), representing the North Central geopolitical zone, denied being offered a new appointment.

He wrote on his verified Facebook page:

“My attention has been drawn to a story currently circulating on social media suggesting that I have received a new appointment from His Excellency, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR.

“For the avoidance of doubt, my current and only portfolio remains that of Board Member, South East Development Commission (SEDC), representing the North Central geopolitical zone—a responsibility for which I remain profoundly grateful to Mr. President.

“I sincerely appreciate the goodwill messages and kind words from friends, associates, and supporters. However, I wish to state categorically that I am fully committed to my present assignment and deeply focused on working with our Chairman, Managing Director, and esteemed colleagues to advance Mr. President’s vision for the South East region and Nigeria at large.

“May I also use this opportunity to remind us that beyond our regional or political affiliations, we are first and foremost Nigerians. Our shared destiny requires that we stand together, integrate our strengths, and unite our hearts in building the nation of our collective dreams.”

Trump’s threat: Any attempt to invade Nigeria act of aggression – Analyst

An International Affairs Analyst, Adoyi Omale, says Nigeria is a sovereign country, stressing that any attempt to invade or send military force to attack the country would be an act of aggression.

Omale made this statement on Tuesday while responding to questions in an interview on Arise Television monitored by DAILY POST.

He said that while Nigeria is a sovereign country, sovereignty does not absolve the government of its responsibility to protect lives and maintain justice.

The International Affairs Analyst further stated that the persistent killings across Nigeria must not be downplayed, urging the federal government to ensure justice for victims and take stronger action against those responsible for ongoing violence and insecurity.

“Nigeria is a sovereign country, and any attempt to invade or send military force to attack Nigeria would be an act of aggression.

“But that is not to say the international community is wrong to point out problems where they exist, especially when there are serious allegations of genocide or terrorism,” he said.

According to him, terrorism and insecurity have become global concerns and must be confronted with urgency and sincerity, lamenting that Nigeria’s security response has failed to produce meaningful results, leaving citizens exposed to attacks.

“Terrorism is a global phenomenon, and a terrorist anywhere in the world is a threat to global peace. The Americans have made it clear they will not allow terrorists to continue occupying space in Nigeria. To be very frank, there are lots of killings going on, and nobody is holding this government responsible for it. It has been happening for quite some time,” he added.

‘If you want to see Tinubu they will ask you how much’ – Ndume alleges bribe in Aso Rock

Senator representing Borno South Senatorial District, Senator Ali Ndume, has alleged that those working with President Bola Tinubu in Aso Rock usually demand bribes before anyone could meet the Nigerian leader.

In an interview with Arise TV, the lawmaker, who was reacting to the diplomatic tension between Nigeria and the United States, alleged that it is relatively impossible to see the president without bribing some officials.

The lawmaker also claimed that the president is surrounded with “Kakistocrats,” stating that “they don’t have people in there.”

He said, “I don’t have a chance to see the president. The only time I can see the president is when he is going to an event.

“This is how they run the government. I’m telling you, they don’t have people there. The government is dominated by Kakistocrats. If you want to see the president, they will ask you how much.

“I wrote to them that I want to see the president to discuss some financial issues, but they were playing games as if they want you to go to heaven.”

Sowore still wanted, we’ll do everything to arrest him – Police

The Lagos State Commissioner of Police, Olohundare Jimoh, says his declaration of activist Omoyele Sowore as wanted remains in effect, vowing that the police will take all lawful steps to arrest him.

Jimoh stated this on Wednesday while responding to questions in an interview on ‘Sunrise Daily, a programme on Channels Television monitored by DAILY POST.

He said Sowore had yet to report to the police since the declaration and reiterated his commitment to pursuing the case.

Recall that the Lagos CP had on Monday declared Sowore wanted for allegedly “causing a disturbance of public peace and acts to commit a serious felony by planning to obstruct traffic on the Third Mainland Bridge.”

“My declaration that Sowore is wanted is still in force,” he said.

According to him, Sowore’s lawyer had contacted him via text message on Monday while he was responding to a riot, and that the message was forwarded to the Officer-in-Charge of Legal at the Nigerian Police Force for follow-up.

“They agreed that Sowore will turn up at the CID because that is where the investigation is being carried out. The normal practice in investigation is to conclude inquiries before going for arrest,” he said.

Jimoh, however, noted that Sowore had failed to report to the police as agreed.

“Throughout yesterday he has failed to report, and we are going to do everything within the ambit of the law to get him arrested, investigated, and prosecuted for these offences,” he added.
