President Muhammadu Buhari has formerly endorsed Mr. Rotimi Akeredolu as the governorship candidate of All Progressives Congress for Ondo State in the forthcoming election.

This was made known by Governor Simon Lalong of Plateau State who formerly unveiled the candidate before the president in his office at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.

Speaking to State House Correspondents in his capacity as the chairman of the APC campaign committee for Ondo election after a meeting with the president on Tuesday, Governor Lalong boasted that APC would win the election.

While disclosing that all internal issues within the party that may affect it in the election had been resolved, the governor made reference to their victory in Kogi and Edo, saying that they would repeat the feat.

He said: “A few weeks ago, I was given the responsibility of leading the campaign on behalf of the National Executive for the Ondo election. And the candidate since election at the primaries has not come to be presented to the leader of our party, that is Mr President. So, today we came in with the candidate and to confirm to the president that APC has only one candidate unlike other parties that are fighting about who is their candidate.

“We have only one candidate and that candidate is Chief Akeredolu Rotimi (SAN)

“Well, that is not a problem to APC, since inception. You knew what happened in Kogi, you knew what happened in Edo, we won the elections. It was as if it was going to be very difficult for us but we won the election.

“Today again, we are going into Ondo. The entire mistake we made in other states we have corrected them. We are seeing a very smooth election, not only a smooth election but the credibility of the candidate itself is something worth selling. We know definitely we are going the election.

“Well Mr. President is a loyal party man so he is answerable to the party although the president of Nigeria. He has also confirmed that he has seen the candidate and is also praying for a successful election in ondo state.”

The governor also faulted last Friday’s visit of Ondo State governor, Olusegun Mimiko to the president, saying it was unnecessary to drag the president to PDP issues.

“Let me say it was even wrong for them to start running to Mr President to help them solve the problem of PDP in their party. Mr. President is the President of Nigeria and he is not a member of PDP even when we have problems in APC we don’t run to Mr President. If he has a problem in his state. He is the governor, let him stay there and resolve the matter.

However, there are also reports that Tiwa’s mom was badly hurt by the negative things Teebillz said about her on Instagram, but she’s ready to forgive and forget all because all she really wants is her daughter’s happiness.

Lagos Moves Against Abandoned Properties In Ikoyi & VI

The Lagos State government has compiled a list of more than 115 abandoned properties in Ikoyi and Victoria Island and directed owners of the buildings/structures to take physical possession of such properties to ensure they are completed, restored and fit for habitation within 90 days or face prosecution.

The directive is contained in a document, sighted by Vanguard, signed by Mr. Tunji Bello, Secretary to the State Government (SSG). He noted that squatters, miscreants and criminal elements have taken over the abandoned properties where they perpetrate criminal activities thus depriving resident of these areas of security, peace and serenity hitherto identified with the areas. In the accompanying statement, the SSG stated:

“The attention of the Lagos State Government has been drawn to the growing number of abandoned buildings/structures in Ikoyi and Victoria Island which has constituted environmental hazard and posed serious security threat to lives and property, in contravention of Lagos State Laws.

“In order to get rid of squatters, miscreants and criminal elements who sought refuge in abandoned structures out of Ikoyi and Victoria Island, the Lagos State Government has identified and compiled the under listed properties for necessary remedial action by Owners/Developers.

This step became necessary in view of the fact that the activities of these criminals are depriving these areas and the good citizens of security, peace and serenity which is hitherto one of the characteristics of the area. In view of the foregoing, Owners /Developers of such and similar buildings/structures are given 90 days’ notice from the date of this publication to take physical possession to ensure that such properties are completed, restored and fit for habitation.

Please note that failure to comply would result in enforcement of the relevant provision of the law.” Recall that the Lagos State government set up a Task Force on Clean-up of Ikoyi, Lekki and Victoria Island with a view to enforcing the original master plan of the areas.

Bello, who is also the chairman of the task force, disclosed that the state government “has already identified such buildings and will communicate with the owners to dislodge the illegal occupants before taking measures which may include revocation of the Certificate of Occupancy of such structures.

” He said the task force would not hesitate “to seek the invocation of the provision of the State Parks and Garden Law, 2011 as it affects landscaping and beautification of such properties.” Under the law, owners of structures harbouring squatters or those who converted their structures to hotels and provided shelters to street traders who commit crimes under the cover of darkness are liable to prosecution that may attract a jail term of six months imprisonment or a fine of N250,000 or both.
