JUST IN: Victory!!! President Buhari, Bola Tinubu, John Oyegun, Others, Sign 2019 Master-Plan, Set To Secure Majority Votes In All States Nationwide

President Muhammadu Buhari, has admitted that there are battles ahead of the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC, in the 2019 general elections.
He said the Reconciliation Committee headed by the National Leader, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, must be given maximum support and cooperation, with a view to getting the party united in purpose and in shape.
The President disclosed this at the Presidential Villa, in Abuja, last night, at a meeting of the National caucus of the party.
He spoke about the party’s differences in various States, saying: “To this end, I have appointed a Committee, headed by Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, a Leader of the party, to reconcile differences in various States.
“We hope the Committee will be given maximum support and cooperation, to enable it to satisfactorily carry out its work and get the party united in purpose and in shape, for the battles ahead.”
Buhari further stated that for the APC to succeed in winning the 2019 general elections, the constitution of the party must be strictly followed in all actions and decisions.
He said the party could not have been victorious in 2015, without the unity of purpose exhibited in challenging and defeating an incumbent government.
Buhari stated: “This unity and success are needed now more than ever, because elections are now looming.”
The President said he was aware of opinions and criticisms about the pace of his government.
“In particular, the delay in appointments to Boards of Parastatals. Many Boards have been inaugurated so far.”
He said now that the INEC had come out with the timetable for elections in 2019, the party should prepare itself for Congresses at Wards, Local Governments, States, and the centre.
He added that party Leaders should also ensure internal democracy and avoid shortcuts and illegal manoeuvres, which had characterized the opposition party “with the consequences that they are now divided.”
“The APC has a history of conducting free and fair primaries whenever consensus about any candidacy is not reached. Regardless of the outcomes of the primary processes, it is imperative that we all work together to ensure the victory of our party.”

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...
