: Reps summon Naira Marley over Mohbad’s royalties

The House of Representatives has summoned singer Azeez Fashola, who goes by the stage name Naira Marley, to appear before it.

This comes as part of efforts to address concerns surrounding the works of the late singer, Ilerioluwa Aloba, popularly known as Mohbad and ensure that his rights are upheld.

The House, through its Committee on Justice, Youth, and Legislative Compliance, also invited Jiggy Adeoye, Mohbad’s manager.

This comes as a bold step towards securing proper compensation and royalties for the late music sensation.

Mohbad, a former signee of Naira Marley’s record label, tragically passed away at the age of 27 under unclear circumstances on Sept 12.

The House’s decision to intervene in the matter was prompted by a motion sponsored by Rep. Babajimi Benson (APC-Lagos).

Benson urged a review of the laws on the entertainment industry and copyright, expressing concerns about the contracts and agreements that artists were often compelled to sign.

During the debate on the matter at the plenary session on Sept 26, the lawmakers had expressed their commitment to ensuring proper compensation and royalties for Mohbad’s musical works.

The lawmakers also pledged to monitor the ongoing investigation into his death and the royalties accruing to him.

In a letter dated Oct. 26, signed by the Committee’s Clerk, Mr Yusuf Ibrahim, the house formally summoned both Naira Marley and Mohbad’s manager.

This was to provide insights into the situation and guide the committee on potential legislative action.

The letter was routed through the President of the Performing Musicians Associations of Nigeria.

Ogun bank official flees with N1.97m, arrested in Oyo

17th October 2023



By Temitope Aina

Kindly share this story:

The Ogun State Police Command has arrested a credit officer of a microfinance bank, Esther Hamidu, after allegedly fleeing with customers’ contributions totalling N1.97m.

PUNCH Metro gathered that Hamidu absconded with the daily contribution of the bank’s customers which spanned between March and December 2023.

Our correspondent learnt that a branch manager of the bank in Abeokuta, the state capital, who discovered that the contribution had not been remitted, reported the matter to the police.

After several failed attempts to make the suspect remit the contribution, Hamidu was said to have disappeared into thin air despite police efforts to arrest her.

However, a source in the state police command who did not want to be mentioned in print said the suspect had been apprehended.

While confirming her arrest to PUNCH Metro on Saturday, the state Police Public Relations Officer, Omolola Odutola, said the suspect was arrested in Ibadan, Oyo State capital, on Friday.

“Yes, she has been arrested. She has been transferred from Ibadan, where she was arrested, to Ogun State. She has confessed to the crime. She could not explain what she did with the money,” Odutola told PUNCH Metro on Sunday.

H.E. Mr Peter Gregory Obi, Presidential Candidate of Labour Party Speaks on the 2023 Presidential Elections Petition Court (PEPC) Judgment
On 7th September 2023
At Onitsha, Nigeria

1. Yesterday, 6 September 2023, the Presidential Election Petition Court (PEPC) finally delivered its long-awaited judgments on the Petitions challenging the outcome of the presidential election held on 25 February 2023. This judgment was delivered within the statutory time frame under the extant statutes. We acknowledge the Court's contributions to due process and the seeming attempt to strengthen our democracy.

2. As petitioners in this case, we respect the views and rulings of the Court, but we disagree with the Court's reasoning and conclusions in the judgment it delivered. It is my intention as a presidential candidate and the intention of the Labour Party to challenge this judgment by way of appeal immediately, as allowed by the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

3. The PEPC has rendered its judgment, but that esteemed body is not the final arbiter. The responsibility now falls on the Supreme Court. I do know that judgment is not coterminous with justice. I implore Nigerians to remain focused, steadfast, and peaceful; and to abide by the rule of law and understand that this matter has not reached its logical conclusion.

4. Our legal team has already received our firm instruction to file an appeal against the decision. I shall not relent in the quest for justice, not necessarily for myself but indeed for our teeming supporters all over the country whose mandate to us at the polls was regrettably truncated by INEC.

5. The strength and value of our democracy reside in solid national institutions and our confidence in them. Electoral litigations will be almost unnecessary and nonexistent if the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) discharges its statutory functions creditably, transparently and with discernible fairness. When that body fails, as it di

Engr. David Nweze Umahi
From fry pan to fire 🔥 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

This is the woman that defeated His Excellency, Engr David Umahi today in Abakaliki Federal High Court. She's Mrs Ann Agom-eze. She came second in the APC senatorial primary election for Ebonyi South Zone. Engr David Umahi's younger brother, Austin Umahi came first. Austin Umahi withdrew from the election and relinquished the ticket to Engr David Umahi. INEC frowned at it and omitted Engr David Umahi's name as it never monitored the rerun exercise announcing Umahi candidate. Engr David Umahi went to Federal High Court in Abakaliki, seeking order of court for INEC to publish his name as senatorial candidate for Ebonyi South. Ann Agom-eze applied to be joined in the suit.

Delivering his judgment this morning on the suit, Justice Riman cited section 115 of the electoral act which forbids a person from standing two different primary elections in the same year. He said in his judgment that such a person if found claiming to participate in two primary elections risks a two year jail term. He said that the authentic senatorial candidate of the APC is Mrs Ann Agom-eze since Austin Umahi withdrew from the race.

Therefore, if Engr David Umahi files an appeal, he stands to gain two years jail bounty as stated by Justice Riman in his judgment. Congratulations to Mrs Ann Agom-eze.

Anambra demolishes Pastor Odumeje’s Onitsha Church

Officials of the Anambra State government have demolished the Mountain of Holy Ghost Intervention and Deliverance Ministry, owned by Onitsha-based pastor, Chukwuemeka Odumeje, (a.k.a) Indaboski Bahose.

The Anambra State government had March marked the church building for demolition for being built on a drainage channel.

Eyewitnesses said Odumeje had attempted to stop government officials from demolishing his church, but he was allegedly manhandled by security men, who accompanied the demolition team.

According to the witness, the cleric was pushed around by security men, including police officers and men of the vigilante services, adding that they stopped him from moving to the demolition area.

MEANWHILE, Anambra State governor, Prof Chukwuma Soludo, has confirmed that government officials were responsible for the demolition of the church, belonging to Pastor Chukwuemeka Odumeje.

Soludo, in a statement signed by his Chief Press Secretary, Mr. Christian Aburime, said Odumeje failed to comply with the government’s directive to remove illegal structures built on waterways.

“Following the expiration of the more than two weeks notice beginning from April 2022 served on developers and building owners, who built several illegal structures along the waterway in Fegge and environs within Onitsha, Anambra State government has begun demolition of such structures.

The exercise, which is being carried out by a joint government Task Force, commenced from Bida Road by Modebe Avenue, Fegge Onitsha.

“The affected buildings: include Mountain of Holy Ghost Intervention Deliverance Ministries, shops and other perimeter fences.

“The structures were marked since April 2022 and all developers and building owners were served notice to remove such illegal structures,” the statement added.

Wike’s camp gives ‘Ayu must go’ condition to back Atiku.

Stalemate as PDP candidate insists party chair will lead campaign
Party bigwigs to lobby Rivers governor for support
The festering post-primary crisis of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has not abated.

The camp of Rivers State Governor Nyesom Wike is seeking the immediate resignation of National Chairman Iyorchia Ayu as a condition for peace.

It follows overtures to the aggrieved governor by presidential candidate Atiku Abubakar.

However, the presidential candidate insisted that the chairman should remain in office to lead his campaign for next year’s election after which he will quit.

To resolve the crisis, party bigwigs are lobbying Wike to embrace reconciliation and support Atiku.

To avert losing the swing states, former Senate President Bukola Saraki is leading some party leaders to lobby Wike to support the presidential candidate.

Wike and his strategists have, however, insisted on their demand that Ayu must quit.

They maintained that Atiku should honour his promise that once the PDP presidential candidate emerges from the North, a Southerner will lead the party.

But Atiku’s camp claimed that Ayu can only step aside after the election.

Sources said PDP leaders are worried that the party may not be able to win the 2023 poll if it loses swing states like Rivers, Lagos and Kano.

It was gathered that Saraki, some ex-governors, former ministers and other leaders are lobbying for Atiku.

Read Also: 2023: Wike’s silence unsettles PDP
Although Atiku was said to be amenable to reconciliation, the leaders have been worried that it was better to open fresh talks with Wike.

They felt it will be dangerous to toy with Wike because of his greater influence on the party and the Southsouth.

A source said: “The party is drifting and party leaders are concerned. The National Working Committee (NWC) is divided now.

“Some governors, ex-governors, ex-ministers and founding fathers of the party like a former National Security Adviser Gen. Aliyu Gusau, ex-President of the Senate Bukola Saraki, Governors Aminu Waziri Tambuwal, Douye Diri and Ahmadu Umaru Fintiri, ex-Governors Henry Seriake Dickson, Sule Lamido, Babangida Aliyu, Boni Haruna and others are with Atiku.

“But from Wike’s camp, a new set of power brokers is emerging. They include Governors Seyi Makinde and Samuel Ortom, ex-governor Hassan Dankwambo, Ayodele Fayose and Donald Duke, a former Attorney-General and Minister of Justice, Mohammed Bello Adoke (SAN), many senators and members of the House of Representatives.

“Disturbed by the division, especially threat to PDP chances in swing states like Kano, Lagos and Rivers states, a former President of the Senate, some ex-ministers and leaders of the party are trying to make amend. The former Senate President, now leading lobbying for fresh talks between Atiku and Wike.

“In spite of the fact that Wike has made himself incommunicado to Atiku, the ex-Senate President is optimistic that PDP leaders will close ranks.”

A source in Wike’s camp gave more insight into why Wike was angry with Atiku.

The source said Atiku cannot describe Wike as unfit to be a vice presidential candidate or a liability to his mandate.

The source said: “The way the situation is going, Nigerians will soon know the truth. Wike is a committed and loyal party leader. He has been there for PDP when some leaders abandoned it.

“Wike was recommended by a committee as vice presidential candidate of the party, but some forces in the party abandoned the report without mutual consultations.

“They came up with ridiculous excuses of temperament, ambition and overzealousness. When it comes to certain challenges, Wike is useful.

“Yet, it has pleased some leaders of the party to wish him away as nobody. They came up with ridiculous excuses.

“Also, what is hurting the Rivers State governor and his strategists is that all mutual decisions agreed with Atiku were not honoured, including the one at their meeting after the presidential primaries. Atiku paid a visit to Wike in Abuja and some issues came up.

“The next thing that happened in the party was that the likes of ex-Governor Babangida Aliyu started attacking Wike. The hand was Esau’s, the voice was Jacob’s.”

The source added: “Wike is ready to draw the battle lines any moment from now because Atiku’s camp has not been forthcoming, especially on a minimum demand.

“It was agreed that once a presidential candidate comes from the North, the National Chairman of the party, Dr. Iyorchia Ayu, will step down.

“If PDP leaders cannot comply with a minimum threshold, you can imagine what will happen after the party wins the 2023 poll.”

A source in Atiku’s camp said: “It is strategically unwise to ask Ayu to step down because Atiku is yet to win the election. Our candidate is committed to North-South unity.”
