Sep 29, 2017 12:11 PM The Nigerian Army have said the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, Nnamdi Kanu, is not in their custody. The sources, from the army headquarters, Abuja, and the 82 Division headquarters, Enugu State, which coordinates Operation Python Dance II, made this known Thursday. This statement followed the suit by Kanu’s lawyers on Wednesday before the Federal High Court in Abuja praying the court to direct Chief of Army Staff Gen. Tukur Buratai to produce Kanu in court. Lead counsel Ifeanyi Ejiofor had declared the IPOB leader missing, adding he was last seen after the September 14 invasion of his residence in Afara-Ukwu area of Abia State by soldiers. “If you follow the trends of things, the army has not been talking about a proscribed group. If someone says he does not know where Kanu is, who gave him the authority to file a motion against the army?’” a source told the Punch. “We don’t want to be drawn into this propaganda. We have never been secretive.

They succeeded in quenching the fire, but by this time, c was so badl

Sep 13, 2017 1:00 PM Halimah Yacob has been declared Singapore’s eighth president on Wednesday after a “walkover” election that saw no vote after other contenders no longer ran for the position. Mrs. Yacob, 63, had been the only candidate deemed eligible to stand in the country’s Elections Department, having held a key public position as Speaker of Parliament for three years. The other two contenders, Salleh Marican and Farid Khan, were both denied eligibility, having fallen short of a constitutional rule that required any candidate from the private sector to have led a company with shareholder equity of at least 500 million Singapore dollars (372 million dollars). Following the announcement, Yacob thanked her supporters in a speech, calling it “a proud moment for Singapore, for multiculturalism and multiracialism.” Mrs. Yacob is Singapore’s first Malay president in 47 years, and the first woman to occupy the president’s office. While some have applauded the historic moment, the

Sep 11, 2017 1:45 PM A Federal High Court in Abuja on Monday dismissed the suit by Kogi West Senator, Dino Melaye, challenging the validity the process of recalling him by his constituents. According to Punch, the case was dismissed by Justice Nnamdi Dimgba who ordered that the Independent National Electoral Commission  “shall proceed with the recall process”. The judgment effectively terminated the earlier ex parte order made by another judge of the Federal High Court in Abuja, Justice John Tsoho, on July 6, 2017, directing parties to maintain status quo. However, Justice Dimgba noted that the process shall only proceed subject to the service of the petition, the full list and signatures of persons in support of the recall process. The judge noted that the 90 days period within which the Constitution ordered the INEC to conduct a referendum on receiving the recall petition had been paused since June 23, when Melaye commenced the suit. He ordered that the period would only conti
