WHY DID JONATHAN RETURNED CAPITAL OIL TO UBA.

The Truth is no where stranger than fiction. There
is a long trail of misappropriation behavior from
the Top to the Bottom. Ifeanyi UBA, just like
Alhaji Abdulrasheed Maina, Otumba Gbenga
Daniels, Bode George, Umaru Dikko, Ibrahim
Babangida, Femi Otedola, have proven that the
more corrupt you are the more rewarding this
enterprise called Nigeria becomes
When you have sacrificed your sense of
patriotism and conscience to feed the every
growing OAK tree of corruption, you become a
sacred cow, too sensitive to kill and yet too ugly
to look at.

Nigeria: Jubilation As AMCON Returns Ownership
of Capital Oil to Ubah

By Chuks Collins

Awka — It was all wild jubilation and excitement
all over major cities of Anambra State yesterday
when news of the return of the oil giant-Capital
Oil Group to its owner and proprietor, Dr. Patrick
Ifeanyi Ubah, was broken.
According to information made available to
journalists in Awka, the Assets Management
Corporation of Nigeria (AMCON) has formally
announced the return and restoration of all rights,
privileges, management and ownership of the oil
company to Ubah with immediate effect.
A statement by Chairman of AMCON, Alhaji Aliyu
Kola Belgore and signed by the group's Head of
Communications, Strategy and Research, Kayode
Lambo, said the positive development was sequel
to "amicable settlement of all pending legal
disputes between the parties."
The statement said: "Consequent upon this
settlement, Chief Patrick Ifeanyi Ubah will be
resuming his role as the Managing Director /Chief
Executive Officer of Capital Oil and Gas Group.
"His resumption as the MD/CEO of Capital Oil/
Gas brings to an end the management of Capital
Oil/Gas by AMCON..."
While a call to Ubah was answered by one of his
aides who declined comments but politely said
that his boss was in a "crucial management
meeting" in Abuja, telephone calls to both Belgore
and Lambo rang out without any response.
In a reaction over the development, a political
icon in Anambra, Mr. Maduka Okoye, who spoke
with journalists in Awka, described it as a
welcome development, saying that no one can
manage a project that emanated from years of
sweat, hardwork and systematic planning better
than the owner/ visioner.
He pointed out that the latest move by AMCON
will allow the Capital Oil and Gas group get better
attention and positioned to take its pride of place
in the down stream sector of the industry.
Okoye said that thousands of individuals who
were relieved of their jobs because of the face-off
can now heave a big sigh of relief because of the
renewed hope of getting recalled back to the oil
company.
Also, an Onitsha-based businesswoman, Mrs.
Edith Anukwu, urged all parties to crises to
maintain a cordial relationship after a peaceful
and permanent resolution of all the pending
issues in the true spirit of patriotism and
brotherliness so that the giant oil company will
not be made to suffer again.
The young business contractor commended Ubah
who she described as a personification of a
useful industry who has become a mighty Iroko
tree that provides shades to many.
She said: "All the good people of Nigeria,
particularly the youths, are very happy for this
development because we fully appreciate the net
effect of the empowerment of a single individual
on his immediate and extended family as well as
the entire society. It is our hope and prayer that
this peace initiative would be allowed to see the
light of the day. We are indeed very happy and
words will not be enough to express our
happiness." Anukwu enthused.
An Okada rider said he was personally happy
because he now looks forward to the usual free
petrol all Capital Oil sales outlets supply to
commuter okada riders and buses.
An executive of the Independent Petroleum
Marketers Association of Nigeria (IPMAN), Chief
Adeyemo Ojo, told journalists in Awka that it has
restored the trust his organisation has in the
Federal Government and her agencies as agents
of positive development.

Ikokore : An Ijebu Food

Ifokore, is a Yam Pottage dish made with Water Yam  not White Yam. It is a pottage recipe from the Ijebu people of Ogun state and ijebu from Lagos state , Nigeria. I’m yet to come across an Ijebu person who doesn’t love Ikokore,  Ikokore remains a staple in an ijebu household. To really enjoy Ikokore, you’ll need to incorporate as much proteins as you possibly can to enrich it. Your best bets are Shaki, ( intestine ) Ponmo, Chicken, Goat meat, Gizzard, Smoked Turkey, Smoked Fish, Panla, Eja Kika, the more the merrier. The authentic Ikokore recipe requires no blended pepper, it calls for just Scotch Bonnet (Ata rodo) and in some cases, dry ground pepper but I’m not too keen on hot and spicy dishes so I settle for Shombo. Ingredients: A Tuber of Water yam 3 Cooking spoons Palm Oil 4 Cups Chicken or Beef Stock/ Water #100 Shombo/Tatashe or 4Tablespoons dry ground pepper #50 Scotch Bonnet (ata Rodo) Smoked Fish (Eja Kika) or Shawa (Bonga fish)Shredd...

MY FACT ABOUT BIAFRA.

This is a part some people will not like to hear, but we will say it here for historical purposes. When the great Biafran leader, Col. Dim Emeka Odimegwu Ojukwu was granted a state pardon by President Shehu Shagari in 1982, the Ikemba soon contested for Senate under the then National Party of Nigeria (NPN), but did his people vote for him? Lest we also forget, he contested for the presidency, how many votes did he got even in Anambra? Let us bring in Chief Alex Ekweme. We recall, despite being founding member of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP),he contested for the party nomination for president in 2002. We all remember how the South-East governors then did all they could to outdo themselves to be seen to be more loyal to President Olusegun Obasanjo than even his own ministers. There was nothing wrong in all these for these people as long as it all guarantees fat bank accounts and unmerited rewards. No one talks about Biafra when contract figures are inflated; Biafra makes no sense ...

STRAIGHTalk with Dr. Doyin Okupe

One major characteristic feature of a Representative Democracy is the ability of the government to be accountable to the citizens. Since elected public office holders assumed power through public votes, it becomes imperative of them to remain accountable to the public. However, Public Accountability in governing the affairs of people and management of public asset especially in Nigeria has remained questionable. Public Institutions such as, EFCC, ICPC and indeed Code of Conduct Bureau/Tribunal established to hold public office holders accountable to the electorates have become political machinery to whittle-down the power of oppositions. Notwithstanding all these, the present administration of President Goodluck Jonathan in Nigeria has consistently promised to be more accountable to the electorates.
