Former presidential media aide Reno Omokri has vowed to expose any supporter of President Muhammadu Buhari that “begs” him (Omokri) on social media.

He made the vow after some Nigerians had condemned his criticism of the President’s broadcast on the coronavirus (Covid-19) pandemic.

“In summary, General  @MBuhari ’s #CoronaVirus broadcast was just hot air! He did not redirect the $37 billion budgeted to renovate NASS or the $150 billion budgeted for less than 500 Reps and Senators towards providing relief for Nigerians,” one of his tweets on Sunday night read.

Many tweeps disagreed with Omokri, saying the President who also announced the lockdown of Lagos, Ogun and Abuja to contain the spread of the virus, should be commended.

Omokri, who was a member of ex-President Goodluck Jonathan’s media team, then tweeted on Monday that those who sowed Buhari will not reap his “hard-earned” money.

“If you hyped General @MBuhari or campaigning for him do NOT come to beg on my profile. If not, I will expose you. I keep records. You can’t sow Buhari and reap my hard earned money. Instead, go and beg on Buhari’s TL,” Omokri wrote on his known handle.

Rivers Lawmakers Open Another Front In Fight With Fubara Over LG Promotion – Lifestyle Nigeria

The Committee on Judiciary, Public Service Matters, Public Petitions, and Conflict Resolution of the Cross River State House of Assembly has called for the dissolution of the State Civil Service Commission due to large-scale misconduct.

 The report also uncovered how the commission promoted an Internal Revenue Service (IRS) staff from Grade Level 5 to 15 after only five years in service.

Presenting the report, the Chairman of the Committee and member representing Abi State Constituency, Davies Etta, informed the Assembly that although the Commission had the Governor’s approval to carry out promotions, it did not follow the required procedures in some cases.

The lawmaker added that the Commission failed in its advisory role as a body that is supposed to uphold the Public/Civil Service Rules. The lawmakers expressed disappointment over the conduct of the Civil Service Commission.

 However, the Assembly wants the Governor to consider Commissioners 1 and 3, namely, Mr. Martin Usibe and Chief Ita Onoyom Ette, respectively, for reappointment into the Commission when it is reconstituted, having been absolved of any breach of conduct from their investigations.

The House also recommended that the next commission continue with the promotions of civil servants as earlier approved by the state governor based on the existing promotion protocols to avoid disrepute to the commission.

Speaker of the Assembly, Elvert Ayambem, said the Commission acted wrongly in the discharge of its duty. Governor Otu, in a letter dated March 13, 2024, sought the power of the House to remove the Chairman and members of the civil service commission.

Governor Mutfwang, part of a delegation of Nigerian Governors, spoke at a dialogue on Peace and Security in Nigeria hosted at the United States Institute of Peace.

The symposium, with the theme “Drivers of Insecurity and Opportunities for Stabilization,” aims at deepening understanding of the security context, including its socio-economic dimensions, and identifying near-term opportunities for addressing instability.

Governor Mutfwang commended the United States Government, particularly the United States Institute of Peace, for its stabilisation support through various interventions, especially those focused on strengthening the capacity of peace actors through the Nigerian Network of Facilitators.

 He expressed optimism that the lessons learned would contribute to addressing decades of security challenges in Nigeria and Plateau State in particular.

The Vice President of the Africa Centre at the US Institute of Peace, in his opening remarks, appreciated the Nigerian Governors for attending the symposium and urged them to apply the lessons learned in their respective states.

Other Governors present at the dialogue included Senator Uba Sani (Kaduna), Alhaji Abba Yusuf (Kano), Alh Nasir Idris (Kebbi), Alh. Umar Namadi (Jigawa), Alh Dauda Lawal (Zamfara), Rev. Fr. Hyacinth Alia (Benue), Hon. Mohammed Bago (Niger), and the Deputy Governor of Sokoto State.
