INCITING: Of Gov Oborevwori Appointing Monarchs Without Subjects

Admin

By Zik Gbemre   The trajectory is creeping into the Delta State Government where Governor Sheriff Oborevwori is captured as appointing monarchs for new or vacant stools for various kingdoms in the state. For some time now, the state media team, in the highlight of new projects approved by the Governor for execution, has often listed the governor’s appointment of one or more monarchs among the approvals. In the latest release from the state, Oborevwori is said to have appointed about 6 new traditional rulers across the state’s 3 senatorial…

TOMPOLO NOT EFCC’S PROBLEM 

Admin

By Zik Gbemre       Under Ola Olukoyede, EFCC has the most petty boss that delights in making big issue of inconsequential matters to attract cheap publicity for self glorification than focusing on the core duty of fighting corruption.   For one week, the Economic And Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) saturated the media with the drama of its nuisance arrest of the Very Dark Man, VDM based on trumped up charges.   Today, they’re being overzealous about harassing High Chief Government Ekpemukpolo, a.k.a Tompolo.   Tompolo is not EFCC…

Arrest Of VDM By EFCC A Display Of State Terrorism

Admin

By Zik Gbemre   This is rubb!sh. EFCC now witch-hunting voice of the people and threatening to destroy democracy. President Trump is the most criticised leader on social media. By now American government under Donald Trump would have thrown a lot of people in detention. The reason for arresting the Very Dark Man is a threat to democracy and rule of law. EFCC was set up to fight financial crimes and not fight advocates for social justice. Tinubu shouldn’t use EFCC to fight opposition and call himself a democrat. EFCC…

TO GBAGI, MY HERO UNFORGETTABLE

Admin

By Zik Gbemre     I remember Olorogun Kenneth Gbagi who died 4th May, 2024. He was misunderstood by many people. He was a great Urhobo businessman and politician who was unlike many Nigerian politicians who depend on easy money and once they are out government for 6 months they are bankrupt and was unlike those politicians who live on government.   He was a shrewd businessman, never believed in waste of resources. He was a lone politician who didn’t pretend and not cunning. Olorogun Kenneth Gbagi was my younger…

Admin

By Zik Gbemre   Congratulations, Bayo Ojulari, Babs Omotowa and Roland Ewubare on new roles in the oil & gas sector.   Roland is no strange name as he was Group Chief Operating Officer Upstream NNPC before resigning at a point.   Bayo and Babs were Shell groomed technocrats who built outstanding careers in Shell.   Omotowa’s new role in the industry as non executive Director of the NNPC LTD Board is a plus with his vast experience in the Royal Dutch Shell in the Hague and in Nigeria.  …

RIVER STATE CRISIS: TINUBU HAS ACTED WISELY-Gbemre

Admin

By Zik Gbemre   Should President Bola Ahmed Tinubu allow the oil rich River state to burn to ashes before acting? No. A solution must be reached to calm nerves. I said few days ago that I didn’t pity Governor Siminalayi Fubara because he allowed self to be used. He enjoyed the political game when Nyesom Wike catapulted him to become Accountant General and then imposed him on PDP to grab the governorship ticket even when he was not a card carrying member of PDP. The devil will not gift…

RIVERS CRISIS: WHY I DON’T PITY FUBARA

Admin

By Zik Gbemre,     Incumbent Governor Siminalayi Fubara allowed self to be used for the sake of power. Fubara a civil service worker that was junior to many workers in River State Civil Service was imposed by Wike as Accountant General of the state above them.   Fubara who was not a card carrying member of PDP but was imposed on them as governorship flag bearer of PDP in River State. Alot of people were opposed for him to have emerged as governor. So why is he complaining now?…

NED NWOKO: HOW NOT TO LOSE SELF ESTEEM

Admin

By Zik Gbemre   The manner Sen Ned Nwoko is prosecuting his political harlotry in joining the bandwagon defection to federal ruling APC is leaving me wondering if something, somebody or group who don’t mean well have suddenly not maliciously reformatted the brains of the supposedly articulate chief campaigner for  Anioma State. After all the hype about his Anioma state campaign which I supported wholeheartedly because of its implication to the state of rest of Delta post Anioma creation, Ned Nwoko should be worried why despite defecting to APC, his…

NED NWOKO: HOW NOT TO LOSE SELF ESTEEM

Admin

By Zik Gbemre     The manner Sen Ned Nwoko is prosecuting his political harlotry in joining the bandwagon defection to federal ruling APC is leaving me wondering if something, somebody or group who don’t mean well have suddenly not maliciously reformatted the brains of the supposedly articulate chief campaigner for  Anioma State. To use his defection as a guise to intensify his ethnic discrimination against incumbent Governor Sheriff Oborevwori is, to say the least, disgusting, so reproachable, going by the trending utterances attributed to him. Yes, some may be…
