Former NHRC Chairman, Chidi Odinkalu lists Governor Nasir El-Rufai critics who are allegedly facing prosecution in court

Former Chairman of the National Human Rights Commission (NHRC), Chidi Odinkalu has compiled a list of Governor Nasir el-Rufai's critics who are allegedly facing prosecution in court. 

 

Odinkalu shared the list on Twitter after the Attorney-General of Kaduna state, Aisha Dikko distanced the Governor from the trials, while insisting that the charges were filed by the Kaduna state government. 

 

Some of the critics of the Kaduna state Governor allegedly facing prosecution in court include lecturers, traditional rulers, a PhD student, a former lawmaker and journalists. 

 

Here are the tweets below; 

 

Emergence of presidential candidate in 2023 will not be by tribe - Governor Uzodinma

 


Emergence of presidential candidate in 2023 will not be by tribe - Governor Uzodinma

Governor Hope Uzodinma of Imo state has said the emergence of presidential candidates in 2023 will be by party allegiance and not by tribe. 

 

Responding to questions from State House correspondents after a meeting with President Buhari on Tuesday September 1, the Imo state Governor stated that anyone can contest for the presidential ticket on the APC platform as the party does not recognise zoning despite agitation in the South-East zone to produce the president in 2023. 

 

Uzodinma said; 

 

“You know that the position is not vacant now, there is a sitting President and we are practising partisan democracy and not tribal democracy.

“So, the emergence of presidential candidate will come on a party by party basis, not a tribe by tribe basis.

“But if there are other internal factors that will form part of the considerations for parties taking decision, of course, that will be entirely the job of the leadership of those political parties and I think that is the right thing to do.”

 

On his current relationship with former governor Rochas Okorocha, Uzodinma said; 

 

“On the issue of Okorocha, the former governor is my brother, my very good brother in whom I am well pleased.

“I have no issue with him, the only thing is that he is now the former governor and I am now the current governor.

“Once we understand that, we don’t have any issue.”

CAN writes President Buhari, says new CAMA law is grossly ''inimical to national interest and security''

 

CAN writes President Buhari, says new CAMA law is grossly

The Christian Association of Nigeria says the controversial Companies and Allied Matters Act 2020 recently signed into law by President Buhari is ''grossly inimical to national interest, security (peace and stability), and overall wellbeing of the Nigerian-state''.

 

The umbrella body for all Christians in Nigeria made this known in a letter signed by its President, Dr. Samson Ayokunle, which was delivered to presidential aide, Etta Enang, on Monday, September 1.

 

The letter reads in part,

“We consider the Act, as indeed, a complex of statecraft compendium, laden with issues that are grossly inimical to national interest, security (- peace and stability), and overall wellbeing of the Nigerian-state.

From the reactions of stakeholders and a cross-section of the Nigerian-state, it is apparent that the Act either did not receive input from the respective various interest groups or failed to accommodate their views, sundry concerns and varying interests of the Nigerian people.

Mr President, from the foregoing, we are of the opinion that you should kindly issue the appropriate directives to suspend the implementation of CAMA 2020 and affirm a thorough reappraisal of the legislation that is in correlation with the provisions of the 1999 Constitution of Nigeria (as amended), other extant legal and policy frameworks, the national economy, national security, national interest and the wellbeing of the Nigerian-state.”

Several clergymen have expressed their disapproval for the law which among other things, empowers the Federal government to change the board of trustees of a church where financial impropriety is believed to have occurred.
