Chief Olusegun Obasanjo Writes A Ground Breaking Letter To President Good Luck Johnathan

On 2nd December, this year, an apparently angry
and frustrated ex-President Olusegun Obasanjo
wrote to President Goodluck Jonathan, a letter that
clearly competes as one of the most acerbic in
modern history, accusing him of ineptitude and of
taking actions calculated at destroying Nigeria.

“Nigeria is bleeding and the hemorrhage must be
stopped,” Mr. Obasanjo said in the 18-page letter
he titled “Before It Is Too Late” exclusively
obtained by PREMIUM REPORTERS Tuesday.

He said Mr. Jonathan has failed to deliver on his
promises to the Nigerian people, stem corruption,
promote national unity and strengthen national
security.

He said that rather than take steps to advance
Nigeria’s interest and up the standards of living of
Nigerians, Mr. Jonathan had betrayed God and the
Nigerian people that brought him to power, and has
been pursuing selfish personal and political
interests based on advice he receives from “self-
centred aides”.

President Goodluck Jonathan on Tuesday announced the discovery of 44 new mineral deposits in 800 locations across the country in addition to the over 50 billion barrels of oil reserves. He also disclosed that efforts were being made to generate power from coal in line with his administration transformation agenda. President Jonathan who stated this at a 50th Annual International Conference and Exhibitions of Nigerian Mining and Geosciences Society (NMGS) in Benin City, the Edo state capital, said the implementation of road map for the development of solid mineral sector in 2012 has no doubt led to increased sustained flow of Foreign Direct Investments (FDI) in exploration and extraction of minerals- which include coal, gold, iron and ore. Represented by the Minister of Mines & Steel Development, Musa Mohammed Sada, Jonathan noted: "We are full of optimism that not only will more mineral types and new locations be discovered, the exploration and exploitation of these valuab...

Man Receives 20 Lashes For Practicing Homosexuality in Bauchi

Image
A Nigerian man has received 20 lashes after an Islamic court in the northern city of Bauchi convicted him of homosexual offences. Under Islamic law, courts can punish homosexual acts by stoning to death. But the judge said he took into account that the Muslim man, Mubarak Ibrahim, 20, carried out the acts seven years ago, and had stopped the practice. In Nigeria, homosexual acts are illegal under both Islamic and secular law and restrictions have been tightened. Earlier this month, President Goodluck Jonathan signed into law a bill which bans same-sex marriages, gay groups and shows of same-sex public affection. The new legislation applies throughout Nigeria. Most states in the predominantly Muslim north of Nigeria have adopted Islamic law, known as Sharia, since the end of military rule in 1999. Along with Mr Ibrahim, 11 other Muslims and a Christian man were arrested last month accused by the authorities of being homosexuals. He was also ordered to pay a fine of about $30 ...
