A military airstrike targeted at Boko Haram members in Abadam Faransa village in Niger republic on Tuesday February 17th accidentally killed 37 villagers who were gathered for the funeral of a local chief. 20 others were injured from the airstrike.

Although no nation has claimed responsibility for the airstrikes, some Niger Republic military officers believe the airstrike was launched from a Nigerian jet, a charge the Nigerian Defence Headquarters spokesperson, Gen Chris Olukolade has denied

"It’s not to my knowledge and there has not been any report from our people of such an incident,” Gen Olukolade told BBC in an interview

Cameroon, Chad, Niger and Nigeria have in recent weeks stepped up coordinated offensive operation against Boko Haram. Chad and Nigeria have used fighter jets as part of a regional alliance to defeat the Islamist group that has recently escalated its deadly attacks on Nigeria and its neighbors.

If APC wins this election, I will go into exile - Bode George

PDP Chieftain, Bode George says he will go into exile if Bola Tinubu's party, the APC, find its way into national government. According to Bode George, if Bola Tinubu gets into power, he would instruct his "boy", the APC Vice Presidential Candidate, Prof Yemi Osinbajo, to immediately pick him up. Bode George said this in an interview with Eniola Akinkuotu of Punch

"If Bola Tinubu finds his way into national government, I will go on exile. He hasn’t the temerity and the calmness of mind. They don’t even know what to do in power. Because the vice-president is his boy, he will just order that Bode George should be picked up. He said soldiers came to him but he must have been dreaming. When he said soldiers had surrounded his house, I drove down there because my house is not too far from there. I know the hierarchy of the military and its behaviour. That they surrounded his house is lie number one because on either side of his house are two buildings. There is also one at the back. So, I wondered where the soldiers were hiding. Why would you lie for public consumption? So when I got down there, I knew that his spin doctors were working. These days people go on the social media and the story went viral. Why would he (President Godluck Jonathan) from Abuja, be running after Bola? Let them be very careful about the statements they are making. More so, if Obasanjo is now linking Jonathan with what happened in Cote d’Ivoire and coup; not in this 21st Century. That is past and gone forever. No nation goes through this kind of tribulation twice and survive. We have had our own experience of Civil War and I pray that God does not direct our minds in that direction and our people have to watch their mouths".

OBJ slams GEJ again, says he is afraid Buhari might jail him when he leaves office

Former President Olusegun Obasanjo yesterday came hard again on President Jonathan and his style of governance, claiming that President Jonathan is afraid that if Gen Buhari wins the election, he might jail him when he leaves office. Obasanjo said this while speaking to newsmen at his home in Abeokuta shortly after his return from his trip to Kenya and UK.

Obasanjo said President Jonathan was doing everything possible to win the elections, either by hook or by crook. He said president Jonathan is playing the cards of former Cote d’Ivoire President, Laurent Gbagbo who continued shifting elections in his country in a bid to ensure that he won the election, a situation that plunged Cote d'Ivoire into political crisis. He said President Jonathan was reigning and not ruling after he said in his last media chat he was not aware of the military's advise that the election be postponed. He said INEC deciding to postpone the election was a forced decision. Read all that after the cut...

Full INEC Chairman's Statement on 2015 Election Schedule

Last night, INEC chairman announced the postponement of the 2015 general elections. Below is the full statement he gave to the press... 

Ladies and Gentlemen, We invited you here today to make known the position of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) on the timetable for the 2015 general elections. Let me state from the outset that the Commission’s position was reached after carefully weighing the suggestions from briefings held with different stakeholders in the electoral process.

The conduct of elections in a country like Nigeria is invariably a collective venture that involves not just the Election Management Body (EMB), but also a diverse range of stakeholders, notably security agencies, political parties and their candidates, voters, as well as interest groups, such as the civil society organizations and the media.To guarantee successful conduct of elections, there are things that are wholly the responsibility of the EMB. But there are other things critical for the success of elections, which fall outside the control of the EMB.

In other words, while INEC must work hard to perfect its systems and processes for conducting elections, and take responsibility for any imperfections thereof, whatever the Commission does may not by itselfbe sufficient to guarantee the success of elections. There are a number of issues in the preparation and conduct of an election, the most critical of which is security, which is not under the control of INEC.

The National Council of States has insisted Election must go on

This is a development that will make the opposition party, APC, happy. The PDP has been making it look like if all Nigerians don't collect their PVC, the election wont be credible.  even if all Nigerians get their voters card, many will still not come out to vote.

Consequently, the National Council of States meeting called to discuss issues about the the nation’s security and other challenges, including the forthcoming elections has ended on a positive note.

At the end of the eight-hour meeting, Nigeria's elders in the Council of States insisted the general elections must go on as has been scheduled, to ensure that INEC remain neutral and independent.

Former Governor Nyako blasts EFCC for declaring him wanted

Earlier today, the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, released a statement saying former Adawama state governor, Murtala Nyako is wanted for stealing, abuse of office and money laundering. (see here). Mr. Nyako has reacted, blasting EFCC and saying declaring him wanted is the 'last kicks of a dying horse".

Mr. Nyako spoke to Premium Times through his media assistant, Ahmed Sajoh

"I am not aware of being declared wanted. But that is good. If you are wanted by a rouge system, it means you are a good person. Has this government gone after anybody that is bad? They only run after the good people and allow the bad people to roam around them, live happily and enjoy whatever bad things they are doing.”

The former governor also blasted the government saying he is not surprised that EFCC declared him wanted and said that many more Nigerians will be declared wanted by the government because they are intimidated by the large crowd that turned out for the APC, rally in Yola, Adamawa.

According to him, the Jonathan government is afraid that even when he (Nyako) was no longer in office, the people of Adamawa State still love and support him.

“When the time comes for them to be declared wanted nobody will sympathise with them,” he concluded.

Who would you trust on Feb. 14? Nigerians face a stark choice

Trust is a fragile thing. As a citizen of a nation, our trust in government allows us to feel safe; to go about our daily lives without the fear. Yet in Nigeria, insecurity is at an all-time high. This is a country in which 294 days ago, over 200 girls were ripped from the lives as they knew it and were left without recourse. 

This is a nation where the epicenter of industry and commerce in its region, Maiduguri, is facing repeated, audacious attacks by a terrorist group insurgency.

Nigerians have the power to change that; to take the first step in protecting themselves. It is a permanent voter card, and it can be used to change the government and change the country's abysmal status quo. As Nigeria moves into the final days leading up to the election, this video release asks the question: who would Nigerians trust? 

A man who has created our abysmal present situation, or a man who has proven security credential when dealing with terrorist incursion. Nigerians have a choice. Who should they trust?

INEC extends deadline for collection of permanent voter cards

Find the INEC press statement released today below...

The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has extended the deadline for collection of Permanent Voter Cards (PVCs) to Sunday, 8th February 2015. This supersedes the earlier deadline of Saturday, 31st January 2015, and is intended to give registered voters yet to collect their PVCs the opportunity to do so in readiness for the February 2015 general elections. Continue...

INEC hereby calls on duly registered persons not to delay in going to collect their cards before the expiration of the new deadline. The Commission reaffirms its determination to make the 2015 elections free, fair, credible and peaceful; and urges all stakeholders, including voters, to spare no effort in working towards the same objective.
