Wild Jubilation Among Oghiadomhe's Kinsmen Over His Sack

Ecstatic jubilation today swept Fugar, the home village in Edo State of the fallen Mike Oghiadomhe, and the youth there promise to gather again on Wednesday to pass a formal vote of no confidence on him.

Tuesday’s celebration started when news spread in the area of yesterday’s fall of their kinsman from the highest levels of the federal government as Chief of Staff to President Goodluck Jonathan.

Sources in the village told SaharaReporters that a group of youths gathered at a nearby area of the Etsako Central Local Government office to express their 'joy and happiness' over the removal of Oghiadomhe from the cabinet of Mr. Jonathan.

In an instant demonstration of the unpopularity of Oghiadomhe, who previously served as former deputy governor of Edo State, the youths were said to have been joined by market women, artisans, the unemployed, traders, students and motorcyclists, some of them dancing and singing.

Motorists plying the roads were said to have been locked in their cars as the crowds and their jubilations grew.

PDP using $10 Million to Lure back Defected Memebers

The All Progressives Congress (APC) has accused the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) of using public funds to lure back some of the federal lawmakers who defected from the ruling party to the APC. The APC condemned the strategy as political horse trading carried too far.

In a statement issued in Lagos on Tuesday, the APC’s interim National Publicity Secretary, Lai Mohammed, said the PDP had, in a show of desperation, rolled out a mouth-watering enticement package that promises two million US dollars to each senator who returns to the PDP and one million dollars to each member of the House of Representatives. In addition, he said the PDP was offering $10 million to each “leader” who abandons the APC and returns to the PDP. The statement alleged that the price tag for the federal legislators from Rivers State was even higher, at five million dollars each.

Even so, the APC spokesman said there was no cause for alarm, asserting that no amount of inducement would stop the change on the horizon since, according to Mr. Mohammed, the long-suffering people of Nigeria were ready and eager to vote out the PDP in next year’s elections.
 

NIGERIA'S MINISTER OF AVIATION SACKED

Nigeria’s Aviation Minister, Stella Oduah, has been fired by President Goodluck Jonathan. Ms. Oduah has been caught in a web of certificate scandals and a scandalous purchase of two BMW armored cars for $1.6 million. Both scandals were exposed by Saharareporters.

Our correspondent reported that Ms. Oduah and three other ministers within the Jonathan govt were relieved of their positions on the orders of Mr. Jonathan. However, their sack was passed off as  voluntary resignation from the cabinet.
 

Stephen Keshi Clock 52

 

Keshi, who turned 52 on Thursday, took time to express gratitude for the assistance and support he has received from different quarters since he assumed the head coach role of the Nigerian men's national team in November 2011.

The former Mali and Togo manager was also full of appreciation for the surprise birthday celebration he got at the team's Green Court Hotel lodgings in Cape Town but remained focused on the clash with Morocco."I feel really good to be alive and well, and I'm happy to be here (in South Africa with the team).

The atmosphere has been good and I can't thank God less for what I've achieved with this team."I'm also speechless and at the same time happy with the celebration.

SAMSUNG TO PRODUCE "GALAXY GLASS"

Samsung was early to market with a smartwatch in the Galaxy Gear, and now it looks like it might be one of the first in the mix with a glasses-based computing device. A new report from the Korea Times (via Verge) suggests that Samsung is currently developing a Google Glass competitor, which is in fact provisionally named “Galaxy Glass,” set for launch in September at the annual IFA tech conference.

Google has yet to put a firm timeline on the consumer launch of its own Google Glass wearable computer, which is available to developers and early adopters via Google’s ‘Explorer’ program. Some reports had suggested a general launch for late 2013, but then later information from Google revised the release timeline to sometime in 2014. Samsung could conceivably beat Google to the punch, but as we saw with the Galaxy Gear, that’s not necessarily a good thing.
