ORJI UZOR KALU DIDN’T STEAL ANYTHING FROM ABIA STATE, HE JUST STOLE ABIA STATE.

Orji Uzo Kalu


..and we will be happy to see others join him there.

If on whatever basis you defend any past or present Governor of Southeast extraction indicted and found guilty of looting/ embezzlement or misappropriation of public funds, you are worse than the notorious Anini and deserve to "be stoned to death."

I have read from a lot of people attaching tribal sentiments to Orji Uzor Kalu’s slam, with many brewing this ironical tribal sentiment, that his conviction is linked to his 2023 Presidential ambition or his ability to financially sponsor a candidate to the contest, and I felt a rude shock down my spine.

(Anyway, no Igbo man will be president come 2023) let’s forget it!

Like seriously? You don’t even care if the monies are looted from you? All you care about is using same monies to fund a puppet and a stool-pigeon to power, who they will still turn around to control and manipulate?

Joshua Dariyr, is from the North, he is a former Governor and APC senator as at the time, but he is in Prison today. Is this also war against Igbos?

Jolly Nyame, is from the North and a former Governor. He was an APC senator, but he was convicted too. Is this also a witch-hunt against the Igbos?

Orji Uzor Kalu’s case was established under PDP government and he was tried severally before APC took over at the centre and he is APC member as at today. Let us drop this tribal sentiments when all these politicians are facing the wrath of their own creation. THEIR EVIL CREATION!

How can you defend someone who doesn’t and will never defend you?

See, I don’t care if Hausa looters are tried or not; I don’t care if Yoruba looters are tried or not; whether they are tried, convicted or not, mental and physical poverty will still ooz from their region.

I am concerned about the greed, wickedness, selfishness and efulefuism of our Igbo political leaders. When they look into our faces, what do they see? Do they see a happy people?

A selfless leader will not marginalise his own people when the Northerners are marginalizing his region. Build your people, build your region with what you have, and we can even become better than those who claims to be Nigerian Monarchs.

There is no insurgency in the Southeastern Nigeria, the annual SECURITY VOTE of each state of the South-East is enough to build:

1. A standard Seaport in Southeast
2. An international Market in Southeast
3. The Second Niger Bridge
4. One good specialist hospital each state
5. Good road network linking all the Southeast states
6. Enhance agriculture in Southeast
7. Most importantly, human capital development.

THESE ARE THE SECURITY VOTES OF 4 SOUTHEASTERN STATES ANNUALLY.

IMO STATE: N333.333M Monthly (N4B Annually)

ENUGU STATE: N600M Monthly (N7.2B Annually)

ANAMBRA STATE: N850M Monthly (N10B Annually)[1]

ABIA STATE: N700M Monthly (N8.4B Annually)

EBONYI STATE: N291,666. (3.5B Annually)

TOTAL N129.1 billion each term. For 20years since 1999, this is enough to develop a region.

Security vote in Nigeria is a monthly allowance that is allocated to the 36 states within the Federal Republic of Nigeria for the sole purpose of funding security services (Not Salaries) within such states and the governors are advised to use their discretion in ways and how to spend the funds. It is not accounted for by them.

They steal these monies and still pocket 1/3 of our monthly allocations from federal, Including oil derivations and we are supposed to clap for them and shout marginalization for them when they are tried and convicted?

You that cannot feed 3 square meal daily is defending them? Your Mumu is factory fitted.

Stand with Igbo businessmen, defend them and leave these politicians to face their karma with the people they sold us to.

North Korea fires test missile into Japanese airspace

 

A North Korean short-range missile was fired into Japanese airspace during a weapons test early Tuesday morning, representing the latest shot across the bow by Pyongyang against Washington and its allies in the Pacific.

The missile shot that penetrated Japanese airspace was reportedly one of three fired from the peninsula, according to officials in Tokyo and Seoul. While one of the missiles flew over the northern Japanese island of Hokkaido, it remains unclear whether the other test shots targeted the same area.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Pentagon confirmed Monday night U.S. time that officials from the North American Aerospace Defense Command detected a single missile shot fired from inside North Korea.

That test shot, defense officials noted, did pass through Japanese airspace before crash-landing into the Pacific Ocean. Japanese military forces stationed in and around Hokkaido were placed on high alert, in conjunction with U.S. missile defense systems based at Yokota air base.

 

Command officials “determined the missile launch from North Korea did not pose a threat to North America,” but that they were coordinating closely with their counterparts at U.S. Pacific and Strategic Commands to assess any possible threat to American allies in the region.

“We’ll take utmost efforts to protect the public,” Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe said in a statement shortly after the test shots crash landed.

“This reckless act of launching a missile that flies over our country is an unprecedented, serious and important threat,” he said.

 

The last missile launch to violate Japanese airspace took place in 2009.

The missile launch is only the latest instance of North Korea’s continued use of using its nuclear and missile programs for saber rattling, this one during the massive “Ulchi Freedom Guardian” military drills between American and South Korean forces, scheduled for Aug. 21-31.

The exercise is one of the largest joint military drills carried out on the peninsula, involving a number of the 28,000 U.S. troops based near the demilitarized zone separating North and South Korea, as well as their counterparts in the South Korean military.

The U.S. and South Korea pressed ahead with the military drills despite both claims by the North that the exercises are a dress rehearsal or cover for an invasion and more gentle suggestions by China that canceling or delaying them might serve as a good-faith gesture and prod the North into broader negotiations on its nuclear and missile programs.

Since command officials opted to go forward with the exercises, the North Korean regime has unveiled images of what are purportedly prototype designs for two new missile systems and threatened new rounds of nuclear weapons tests.

Earlier this month, tensions between the North and the U.S. reached a fever pitch after President Trump’s bellicose threats to rain “fire and fury” on Pyongyang, should it threaten American interests in the region. In response, Pyongyang threatened to fire long-range missiles at U.S military installations on the island of Guam.

Earlier Monday, officials at the United Nations released a letter from North Korea’s U.N. ambassador asking that the Security Council schedule an urgent discussion about the military exercises, which are adding “fuel to open fire.”

The U.S. is staging a “provocative and aggressive joint military exercise at this critical moment of the Korean peninsula, where the situation is just like a time bomb” that nobody is sure “when to blow up,” Ja Song Nam wrote in a letter Friday to the Egyptian delegation.

Egypt currently holds the rotating Security Council presidency and has the power to schedule debates.

Jailed German nurse may have killed 86 patients – Officials

 

A German nurse serving a life sentence for murdering two of his patients is believed to have killed at least 86 people entrusted to his care, officials said, on Monday, in what they described as an imagination-defying series of crimes.

The nurse, identified as Niels Hoegel, was sentenced to life in prison in February 2015, after he confessed and a court in the northern town of Oldenburg found him guilty of administering overdoses of heart medication to some patients in an intensive care ward in Delmenhorst. He was convicted of two counts of murder, two counts of attempted murder and causing bodily harm to patients and is serving his sentence.

During his trial, the former nurse had also confessed to intentionally inducing cardiac crises in 90 of his patients, 30 of whom he said had died. That prompted officials to launch an investigation into the deaths of some 130 of Hoegel’s former patients. The results were presented Monday in Oldenburg.

At least 84 of the convicted killer’s former patients were found to have died after suffering from injections of five different forms of medication, Johan Kuehme, chief of police in Oldenburg, told reporters.

Authorities are waiting for the results of another 41 toxicology reports, the results of which could drive the number of confirmed deaths even higher, he said.

“The realisation of what we were able to learn is horrifying,” Mr Kuehme told reporters. “It defies any scope of the imagination.”

Hoegel, now 40, told the court at the time that he had enjoyed trying to revive the patients. But his efforts did not always succeed, leaving some to become his victims.

The special commission, launched in October 2014, after Hoegel’s confession, combed through evidence that included more than 500 patient files. It based its conclusions in part on toxicology tests on the remains of 134 possible victims, who were exhumed to see if they contained traces of the chemicals the nurse had confessed to using.

It found that Hoegel had administered lethal injections to patients at a hospital in Oldenburg, where he worked from 1999 to 2001.

The investigation also found that although the high number of patients dying under Hoegel’s care was noticed by other staff members in Oldenburg, no action was taken to understand why.

As suspicions began to swirl around the nurse, he was later transferred from a ward to a position in an anesthesiology unit, according to the public broadcaster NDR.

There, a doctor who worked with him at the time told Hoegel that his services were no longer wanted, because he was always forcing himself into the spotlight when trying to revive a patient, the broadcaster reported.

Nevertheless, after the nurse quit his job in Oldenburg, he was issued a recommendation that bore no indication of any concerns about his ability to carry out his duties, the broadcaster said.

In December 2002, Hoegel then took up a new job as a nurse at the hospital in Delmenhorst.

HUNDREDS OF TURKISH CIVIL SERVANTS PURGED IN LATEST DECREES

ISTANBUL - Turkey dismissed hundreds civil servants and boosted President Tayyip Erdogan’s powers over the MIT national intelligence agency in two decrees published on Friday, the latest under emergency rule imposed after last year’s attempted coup.

Turkey has sacked or suspended more than 150,000 officials in purges since the failed putsch, while sending to jail pending trial some 50,000 people including soldiers, police, civil servants.

The crackdown has targeted people whom authorities say they suspect of links to the network of Muslim cleric Fethullah Gulen, blamed by Ankara for the coup.

Under the latest decrees, published in the government's Official Gazette, more than 900 civil servants from ministries, public institutions and the military were dismissed. Those sacked included more than 100 academic personnel.

According to the decrees, the president's permission will be required for the head of the MIT national intelligence agency to be investigated or to act as a witness. The president will also chair the national intelligence coordination board.

The Ankara chief prosecutor's office will have the authority to investigate members of parliament for alleged crimes committed before or after an election, according to one of the measures.

One of the decrees also ordered the closure of the pro-Kurdish news agency Dihaber and two newspapers, all based in the southeastern city of Diyarbakir. Since the coup, some 130 media outlets have been closed and around 150 journalists jailed.

Such measures have alarmed Turkey's Western allies and rights groups, who say Erdogan has used the attempted coup as a pretext to muzzle dissent.

Some 250 people were killed in last year's coup attempt, and the government has said the security measures are necessary because of the gravity of the threats facing Turkey. Gulen has condemned the coup attempt and denied involvement.

Under the decrees, Turkey will also recruit 32,000 staff for the police, along with 4,000 judges and prosecutors.

HARVEY BECOMES CATEGORY 2, CONTINUES TO STRENGTHEN.

As of 5 AM (US time)

Location: 26.1°N 95.5°W
Moving: NW at 10 mph
Min pressure: 958 mb
Max sustained: 105 mph

Harvey is now a category 2 hurricane in the Gulf. It will continue to strengthen as it approaches the Texas coastline. It’s not an immediate threat to the northern Gulf Coast but it will be for Texas where flooding rains are likely. The central Texas coast may get large storm surge too of 6 to 12 feet. Landfall is likely late tonight. After landfall, Harvey slows and loses wind speed but meanders for days to potentially create flooding rains of a foot or two. In the worst case of a stall, rainfall may approach 3 feet over several days.

It is entirely possible that after landfall and an immediate weakening, Harvey could drift back into the Gulf over the weekend. If that were to happen, it may or may not strengthen again. It would certainly prolong the threat of flooding rains for Texas and then Louisiana, as it would likely drift northward or northeastward. We keep our daily routing of scattered thunderstorms but we might get additional rain next week from Harvey, depending on its track.

The category of a hurricane only tells you the maximum wind. By itself, the category does not control storm surge or rain.

The Associated Press reports: Hurricane Harvey could cause U.S. gasoline prices to rise, with the storm expected to hit a refinery-rich stretch of the Gulf Coast. Some refineries are expected to shut down until the storm passes, possibly disrupting gasoline supplies.

The immediate impact from Harvey for the north-central Gulf Coast will not be in the weather but it will be in the surf. Watch for swells and dangerous rip currents increasing tomorrow.

The weak tropical disturbance over south Florida will likely not move much in the next few days. That means a very wet pattern there, until the disturbance moves northeastward into the Atlantic.
