APC CHAIRMAN LOBBY OVER APPOINTMENT

A report by MASS WATCH indicates that state chairmen of the All Progressives Congress (APC), has asked to be carried along in the appointment of ministers. According to the report, the party leaders made their position known at a recent meeting with the party’s National Working Committee (NWC) held in Abuja. They said they were not carried along when the immediate past ministers were appointed in 2015, adding that the situation was responsible for the inability of the ex-cabinet members to deliver their wards during the last general elections. Consequently, they appealed to the NWC to inform the president that their inputs should be considered in the appointment of ministers from their respective state chapters.

A source quoted in the report said: “The president is not going waste time this period and he is not under pressure to make the list known. The man is taking his time to able to come up with competent party members. “He is not going to reward people with ministerial positions like former Congress for Progressive Change members, who were appointed and made little impact. He is going for quality hands, who would be chosen from the party. “To make that possible, state party chairmen at a meeting with the NWC in Abuja last two Thursdays, pleaded with the party leadership to carry them along in the appointment of ministers, especially in non-APC states. “They gave examples of states where cabinet members were appointed in 2015 without their contributions. The party chairmen want to be part of the process now. “Their belief is that if they are carried along, people, whose objectives are different from the president’s vision, would not be appointed. The NWC agreed that they would be carried along.” Meanwhile, the immediate past governor of Lagos state, Akinwumi Ambode is being considered for a “juicy” ministerial position.

I RAPED MY MOTHER BECAUSE I COULDN'T RESIST URGE FOR SEX

www.brightnlere.blogspot.com, Nlere bright , a 45-year-old man, has been arrested by Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) for allegedly raping his mother.

Ihuaku, who hails from Umueke Ezagbogu in the Ezinihitte Mbaise Local Government Area of the State, was handed over to the corps by the youth in the community after his mother reported the incident to them.

The NSCDC commander said: “The men of the command later proceeded to the residence of the suspect and arrested him,” he added.

Fielding questions from journalists, the suspect confessed to the crime, adding that he was under the influence of alcohol.

“After drinking on that fateful evening, there was a heavy downpour and I could not resist the urge for sex; so, I had to use a local pistol to threaten my mother to submission and I later raped her,” Ihuaku stated.

Asked if he was married, the suspect said he did not have the means yet, as he was not doing anything tangible.

“I was not bewitched. I was under the influence of alcohol,” he added.

It was also gathered that the incident took place in the house the suspect is living in with his mother.

The mother (name withheld) confessed that the incident was the second time.

She said, “I was in the kitchen and saw him (Ihuaku) with a pistol. He used it to threaten me. He told me that he would kill me. I could not do anything other than to beg him to drop the gun.

“It was in the process that he threw me on the ground and it (rape) happened.

“I had to call on the youths the next morning, as the incident happened when it was already dark and damp. The youth later went to the NSCDC headquarters in Itu to report him, hence his arrest.”
