FUNMI BASORUN: NIGERIA IS MAKING A DANGEROUS HISTORY BY THE GRACE OF ALMIGHTY EMEFIELE, GOVERNOR OF CENTRAL BANK OF NIGERIA (CBN) ®™√ INN Nigeria © godwin emefiele 2 11935048816882364727 Today at 10.00 am, I was at the Ayangbure Street, Ikorodu branch of Guaranty Trust Bank (GTB) to withdraw cash for payment of my staff salaries at ROMO Nigeria Co. Ltd. and my church, Gospel Church of C&S. On presentation of the ROMO cheque, the most senior officer at the branch told me there was no cash. I went down to the ATM section where over 50 people crowded the hall; I was told the ATM was not dispensing cash (either old or new). I have just read online a directive from the CBN Governor that banks should pay a maximum of N20,000.00 out to customers on presentation of the teller. It is now clear that the CBN Governor, Godwin Emefiele, is making a dangerous and destructive history for Nigeria. Since CBN was established in 1959 (and I was a foundation staff), no Governor has taken Nigeria for a ride as Emefiele. The multiplier effect of his rather evil directive is to close down all businesses in Nigeria and further add to the hardship Nigerians are experiencing in recent times. I make bold to state that unless this oppressive directive is withdrawn within the next 48 hours, Nigerian masses will have no choice but to rise and compel the Government to take positive action to reverse it. Meanwhile, I sincerely call on Governor Emefiele to voluntarily resign NOW or face the wrath of the Nigerian masses. Enough is Enough! OLORUNFUNMI BASORUN©

The project which began in November of 2022 is nearing its completion stage, and according to the council chairman, Hon.

In his message to Ikorodu News Network (INN), Hon. Adesina stated that the drainage was constructed during the Late Lateef Jakande's governorship tenure between 1979 and 1983, and has since been dilapidated. "I saw the need to restructure the drainage, and make it elevated, to ease the passage of water, plus a slab on top of it, serving as a walkway because the passage is very narrow". "It forsook worsened state resulted in gutter blockage which causes homes to drench in water during the rainy season". "But now, with this avant-garde upgrade and adequate channelling, the ancestral axis of Ikorodu Local Government will be safe from water smog" Adesina explained. The drainage system stretches from the state-of-the-art mini stadium and Youth Activity Centre in Ita-Elewa to Ikorodu central mosque, measuring a staggering length of 176.8 meters.

According to a release by the party, the state chairman, Hon. Cornelius Ojelabi said the decision was reached as a result of the state of the nation due to the scarcity of fuel and pain occasioned by the Naira redesign. He empathises with the general public, especially the downtrodden who are at the receiving end. He expressed the view that it will be insensitive to forge ahead with the various rallies with the situation of things. He emphasized that members of APC are not immune to the development as he has been inundated with several complaints. He joined his voice with those of other well-meaning Nigerians to call for the review of the Naira redesign policy to give it a human face and ameliorate the suffering of ordinary Nigerians. He equally appealed that petroleum products should be made available in order not to jeopardize the preparation for the elections and reduce the negative economic impact. He enjoined all Lagosians to remain law abiding as all issues are resolved in due course.

Held on the 6th of February 2023 in Igbodu axis of Ijede, the group converged with her members, informing them to ready their PVC towards the forthcoming elections.

Without grating messages, the faction founder, Princess Scholastica Ezuma stated that as a woman leader who has been involved with politics for over 35 years, she is always pressured by the sobs of her people to offer solutions to their difficulties. According to Princess Ezuma, election day will present itself like an exam fever for only those who are not certain about their candidate of choice, putting in that for her group, it's APC from top to bottom. Explaining further, she said, "When I contested some years ago, it was an indigene of Ikorodu that sponsored me, and now it's time for me to give my entire base behind capable candidates in Ikorodu, and the All Progressive Congress (APC) party is my choice".

He continued, "If they're bad then vote them out, but if they're good re-elect them". "The funny truth is, when you get to that ballot box, only you and God knows who you'll vote for". "So, be ready to exercise your civic duty for APC on election day and vote with your conscience". He further advised that a lot of other party candidates will be listed on the ballot papers, and voters are to check precisely for their chosen APC candidate on the sheet before voting. "If we have decided to support all flag-bearing candidates of the All Progressive Congress (APC) as declared by Princess Ezuma, then members should not be afraid or intimidated based on our recommendation" He concluded. The group finished up the dialogue, pitching another meeting before the election with plans to host the All Progressive Congress (APC) party candidates in Ikorodu.
