Detention Of Jonathan’s Ex CSO: Group Demands Immediate Release.. Alerts Nigerians On Buhari’s Dictatorship

The Niger Delta Renaissance Organisation has called for the immediate release of the former Chief Security Officer to ex-President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan. The group in the press statement made available to newsmen in Abuja alerted Nigerians to the dictatorial tendencies of the present administration under President Muhammadu Buari.
The group in the statement signed by its National Coordiantor Nwokoma Messiah and  Director of Publicity Amakiri Christiana said Nigerians are now waking up to the reality of the Buhari’s dictatorship.
The group wondered why the present administration has decided to engage itself in selective witch hunt when the issue of corruption did not start today in the country. The NDRO described President Goodluck’s administration as one of the most transparent in the country but wondered why the Buhari administration which has a lot of corrupt elements surrounding him has decided to look the other way in his bid to tackle corruption.
The group said if the present administration is interested in fighting corruption then it must start from Rivers state where the former governor Rotimi Amaechi milked the state dry. “It is of no use to start this posture of anti-corruption with Jonathan’s aides when people like ex-Governor Amaechi and Bola Tinubu not talking of Adams Oshiomhole though under immunity with celebrity status as poster child for corruption. This corruption posturing of the present administration must be seen as holistic if it wants to be taken serious. Arresting innocent people without bringing up any formal charges against them amounts to abuse of their rights and we must stand against this if we must take Nigeria out of the atavistic world of dictatorship. It is standard practice that you investigate somebody and come up with strong evidence to prosecute before you arrest and not to arrest somebody before you start investigations. This is condemnable and we will surely resist it with all legal and legitimate instruments” the group said.
The NDRO also alerted Nigerians to the fact that more arrests of Jonathan’s supporters will come up in the coming weeks warning that this vindictive arrests will be dangerous for the country and its international image which former President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan did a lot to shore up.

The detention of the former CSO to ex-President Jonathan follows that of the former National Security Adviser Col. Sambo Dasuki rtd and that of former Jigawa state governor Sule Lamido

DEFECTIONS: Why Saraki, Dogara Others Must Heed Sen. Ibrahim's Call by Comrade Nwokoma Ndubuisi M.

The gale of defections in the National Assembly last week was followed by an advice from no one else than Sen. Abu Ibrahim that the Senate President Dr. Bukola Saraki as well as the Speaker of the House of Representatives Yakubu Dogara and others in the fold of the All Progressives Congress APC that are still masquerading in the party should resign their membership of the party. This call which also implies that they resign their positions as leaders of the various arms of the National Assembly is yet to be complied with by those concerned as at the time of writing this piece Whatever their reasons for still staying put in the party may be, the fact of the matter is that their continued stay in the party has become a sore which must be extricated from the body.  As I watched through the proceedings of the defections on national television, I wept for the country for producing such leaders that lack morality despite all the party has given them politically which they ordin...
