‘POLITICAL ASSASSINATION’: KOGI GROUP CALLS FOR ARREST OF TINUBU OVER ABUBAKAR AUDU’S ‘MURDER’

A group by the name, Kogi United Forum has called on the Inspector General of Police to commence immediate investigation into what it described as the suspected assassination of Prince Abubakar Audu a former governor of Kogi State and gubernatorial candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the November 21, gubernatorial election in Kogi State. 
The group in a statement signed by its National President, Tunde Aina is accusing the National Leader of the APC, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu of allegedly masterminding the assassination of the late Audu.
Audu, it was gathered started vomiting blood shortly after casting his vote on Saturday and sharing a meal with the APC National Leader, Bola Ahmed Tinubu in Lokoja. Audu eventually passed on at about 6 am on Saturday morning while election results were being collated.
Efforts by his family members to make the news public was truncated as Tinubu advised against it on the premise that it could work against the APC, should his death be announced early.
Tinubu, for whatever intents and purposes was hoping Audu would be announced winner after which his running mate, Hon. Abiodun Faleke, a member of the House of Representatives, representing Ikeja Federal Constituency of Lagos State who was single-handedly handpicked by Tinubu as Audu’s running mate would then be declared governor.
The question we are asking is simple: who would have been the biggest beneficiary of the death of Audu seeing that he was already reported to be leading the polls and coasting home to victory?
The Kogi United Forum smells a huge rat in the untidy events that have played out in the death of Audu and therefore demands the following:
“The immediate investigation of the death of Abubakar Audu as a case of cold-blooded murder and political assassination.
“That the National Leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Asiwaju Bola Tinubu be immediately arrested by the Nigerian Police and investigated thoroughly for the murder of Audu.”
Signed
Tunde Aina
National President

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...
