Watch out for live streaming of Vanguard Personality of the year awards 2013.
Three personalities will be given the Vanguard Personality Award for the year 2013. These individuals have distinguished themselves in their different endeavours and they are Dr Emmanuel Eweta Uduaghan, CON,; Alhaji Aliko Dangote, MFR, GCON, and Innocent Ifediaso Chukwuma, OFR.

Executive Governor of Delta State, Dr Emmanuel Eweta Uduaghan, CON, is our PERSONALITY OF THE YEAR 2013. The vote among the editors was unanimous, which is rare since we started recognising the most outstanding people every year in our society. Uduaghan grew up under his grandmother in Mosogar, near Warri in Delta State.

Dangote, Uduaghan and Innoson

Alhaji Aliko Dangote, MFR, GCON, winner of Nigeria’s Centenary Award, has proved that there is such a thing as “The Nigerian Dream”, which is a prime reason that foreign investors have reversed the tide of divestment in Nigeria and are coming in such droves that Nigeria has now been designated the most attractive investors’ destination in Africa. He is Vanguard’s AFRICAN OF THE YEAR 2013, and this Newspaper is honoured and privileged to celebrate this industrial icon today.

Mr. Innocent Ifediaso Chukwuma, OFR, Okpuzu Ndi Igbo did not need public funds to translate his own visions to reality. He indeed did not need doctorate degrees. Chukwuma through ingenious business wizardry and hard work transformed the limitations around him to advantage and along the way, put himself at the forefront of what could become Nigeria’s real industrialization.

He is Vanguard’s MOST INNOVATIVE INDUSTRIALIST OF THE YEAR 2013.

Expected at the event which will take place at the New Grand Ball Room of Lagos Oriental Hotel at 5pm are Vice President Namadi Sambo, GCON as Special Guest of Honour, Chief Olusegun Osoba, CON as Chairman and a host of others.

ALLEGED BRIBERY OF APPEAL COURT JUDGES IN DELTA JUDGMENT: A Disservice To The Rule of Law

Deltans have expressed deep concern over troubling allegations of bribery against judges of the Delta State Governorship Appeal Court, whose judgment was recently delivered in Lagos State. In a widely circulated leaked audio, Hon. Daniel Mayuku, a senior member of the People's Democratic Party (PDP) and a former three-time member of the State House of Assembly representing Warri South West constituency, can be heard making disturbing claims. Mayuku stated in the leaked audio that three days before the pronounced judgment of the Appeal court, the Delta State PDP knew that the judgment favoured Ovie Omo Agege based on facts and available evidence. They allegedly used financial inducement and blackmail to influence the change of the judgement in favour of the PDP governorship candidate, Sheriff Oborevwori, against the true picture of the case. Mayuku in the leaked audio claimed that the Court of Appeals is highly corrupt and expensive, and that the Appeal court is the only place they

OBOREVWORI: How Not To Glorify A 'One Chance' Governor - By Zik Gbemre

It is appalling how, in desperation to sustain its thieving hegemony over the Delta State Government since 1999, the Delta PDP had the audacity to impose the weakest, most uninformed contender, a local champion, as Governor over a state replete with accomplished men and women of immense capacity. Given this unenviable privilege, one would have expected the fortunate placeholder governor, Sheriff Oborevwori—whose only election campaign manifesto was pledging to improve on the failed leadership of Ifeanyi Okowa, his predecessor—to engage creative minds and individuals of proven integrity to assist him in making a difference. Rather than doing the needful, Oborevwori has worsened matters by electing to engage the same spent leaders, deadwood, and gluttons that have gained prominence in running the state down over successive administrations. The result has been a government of mediocre officeholders competing to run the state for their pockets at the detriment of the populace, under a gove
