President Muhammadu Buhari

The statement from the Presidency late Saturday was not only surprising but more of a rebuke to his teeming supporters and support groups nationwide. President Muhammadu Buhari through his special adviser on media and publicity, Femi Adesina directed that all campaigns for him be stopped at once until the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) gives the nod for campaigns to commence. Below is Adesina’s statement.

STATE HOUSE PRESS RELEASE

POLITICAL CAMPAIGNS: EASY DOES IT, SAYS PRESIDENCY

It has been observed that some fervent supporters of President Muhammadu Buhari have begun what may be interpreted as political campaigns in their advocacies and advertisements in the mass media.

We appreciate their enthusiasm, borne out of desire to garner support for an administration that is actuated by nothing else, other than service for motherland, but we hereby appeal for patience, so that the game can be played according to the rules. The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has a timetable for political campaigns, and we urge committed supporters round the country (and beyond) to be mindful of such. There will be ample time ahead to trumpet the good works of the Buhari administration, and solicit re-election, all for the good of our country and her people.

While a chronicle of the achievements of the administration is in order now, outright canvasing may amount to jumping the gun. We are an administration committed to due process and scrupulous respect for rules, law and order.

We appreciate our massive supporters nationwide, and urge them to exercise restraint till the race commences officially as stipulated by law.

Femi Adesina
Special Adviser to the President
(Media and Publicity)

The Senator representing Rivers South East in the Senate, Senator Magnus Abe says he can be trusted with the office of Governor of Rivers State.  He further stated that he was ready for the position and the 2019 gubernatorial  election that would usher him into the office.  Senator Abe, who said this when he visited Bonny Local Government Area at the weekend, distinguished himself from the character of the Senator representing Rivers East, Senator Andrew Uchendu.  The Gokana born former Secretary to the State Government, has been embroiled in an unending power tussle with the Minister of Transport Minister, Rotimi Amaechi, over who controls the State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC).  "I am not like Andrew Uchendu who stood before the Etche people and said he would  only run for one term. But as soon as he heard there will be indirect primaries and he has the support of the leader of the party, he went back to the secretariat and bought form fo

L-R Larry, Mina, and Quincy with His Majesty, King Edward William Dappa Pepple III, Perekule XI, Amanyanabo and Natural Ruler of Grand Bonny Kingdom. It began like any other day but when delectably dressed ladies daintily attired and resplendent in the best of Bonny traditional and other beautiful apparels began streaming into the hallowed and serene environs of the St. Stephen’s Cathedral Church, Bonny, it was obvious that something spectacular was about unfolding. The day was Monday, 31st December, 2018. Before long the cathedral’s auditorium was filled to the entrance with guests hanging outside. Then the church bells clanged away as the embodiment of piety, the Very Reverend Richard Ibituru Hart led his fellow clergy into the church hall to commence the thanksgiving service in honour of a lady of many parts, Mrs. Mina Larry Pepple. Husband of celebrant, Amasenibo Larry Pepple The celebrant, Mrs. Mina Larry Pepple Chiefs Dagogo Adda Allison and Abel Att
