EX-GOVERNOR TIMIPRE SYLVA SABOTAGE BAYELSA GOVERNORSHIP PRIMARY...OSHIOMOLE

Adams Oshiomole, Edo state governor, who served as the Chairman of the Electoral Committee in the APC governorship primary election in Bayelsa State yesterday, has accused a former governor of the state, Timipre Sylva of using his thugs to sabotage the governorship primary. At a press conference he held today on the outcome of the deadlock primaries Oshiomole said:

“I was appointed with six other members from the APC to conduct the primary election of the governorship election in Bayelsa State. The exercise took place yesterday (Tuesday) and somehow, thugs took over the sports complex, where the exercise was to take place. They practically prevented the actual delegates from participating and as a result, we could not proceed with the exercise.
The committee was virtually held hostage, including my humble self. This time, they were supervised unfortunately by one of the aspirants, the former governor of the state, Timipriye Sylva, who said to my face and to the committee that we could not leave the venue of the conference unless we conduct the exercise without accreditation, as prescribed by the national secretariat. It is important that we state clearly that the national secretariat has adopted a standard guideline for the conduct of governorship primary and this guideline were used effectively in Kogi State and it produced a candidate in which all the aspirants were quite happy with.

 The key issues in this guideline, as handed down by the party, is that delegates, as contained in the list, have to be identified either though the Permanent Voter Card or the National Identity Card or international passport. This was to ensure that proper accreditation was done because the integrity of an election rests primarily on the integrity of the accreditation process; once the accreditation suffers any defect, it affects the entire exercise. As they say, you cannot build something on nothing. Whereas all the aspirants agreed with this guideline, it is only Sylva that did not agree with it. He rejected this mode of accreditation and chose to accuse the national secretariat of formulating the guideline to frustrate his ambition. Every effort made to reassure him and direct his attention to the fact that same guidelines have been used and that they are standard guidelines that will be used in future elections fell on deaf ears. He insisted that we cannot leave the place unless we are ready to conduct the election without recourse to accreditation, as stipulated by the party and, of course, I was not in a position to amend the guideline, nor was I ready to submit to his intimidation.

Sylva insisted that it is the State Secretariat and not the national body that should conduct the primary and that it was wrong for the national body to conduct primaries without involving the state leadership of the party and therefore, as far as he was concerned, we must proceed with the election without complying with the guidelines of the national secretariat. When it became clear that our lives were under threat, I had to call Abuja to prevail on the Joint Task Force to provide me with security to enable me to leave the venue of the primary because thugs had effectively blocked the gates under the instructions of Sylva. I have since forwarded our report to the National Secretariat namely that the primary could not be conducted because of these and several other malpractices.” he said

BUSTED: SYNDICATE THAT SPECIALIZED IN SENDING NIGERIAN GIRLS TO DUBAI 4 PROSTITUTION ARRESTED

Syndicate, which specialized in sending Nigerian girls to Dubai for prostitution, have finally arrested by operatives of the National Agency for the Prohibition of Trafficking in Persons (NAPTIP)

Investigation revealed that the syndicate is behind two videos which went viral some weeks back on the social media. The videos showed two girls, stark naked, promising a woman, rolling the tape that they would never run away with her money. They had further taken an oath that calamitous events would befall them if they fail to keep to their promise.

Mr. Josiah Emerole, NAPTIP, Assistant Director, Head, Press and Public Relations, while addressing journalists said that NAPTIP was already working with Nigeria Intelligence Agency (NIA) and an international agency to arrest other fleeing madams in Dubai.

He noted that presently, five suspected madams had been arrested in Nigeria namely: Blessing Gabriel 25, who is the prime suspect, Precious Ejiro Owoh, 29, Rose Gabriel, 25, Priscilla a.k.a Prisca Effiong Bassey, 33 and Terry Homuere Smooth.

Emerole said: “Early August 2015, the media, especially the social media was awash with nude visuals of two of our citizens, Ann and Chisom, filmed and uploaded by some of our unpatriotic citizens engaged in trafficking of girls from Nigeria to Dubai, the United Arab Emirate for sexual exploitation.

“The nude visuals which caused some uproar within many circles in Nigeria and raised questions among our international partners showed the two girls being forced to swear to an oath of allegiance separately while nude.

They were made to claim that they came to Dubai on their own volition to engage in prostitution and ready to obey their madams without reporting to anybody. The women that filmed the video threatened to upload the nude visuals if the girls did not act accordingly. 

The blackmail videos are part of the Dubai Syndicate’s control mechanism which also includes oath taking, and confiscation of travel documents to ensure obedience and submission.”
