'Don't Be An Idiot Like Me': Truck Driver, 51, Posted Tragic Last Message Just A day Before Dying Of Coronavirus After Catching It At A Party In California

Tommy Macias, 51, from California, died from coronavirus on June 21 - just a day after uploading a tragic and regret-filled Facebook message saying he 'f***ed up' and caught the virus at a party. Lamenting the fact that he put his family's health at risk, he pleaded with people to wear masks in public and keep their distance from others, adding: 'Don't be an idiot like me.' Friends said Macias, who was overweight and had diabetes, had been following guidelines strictly until he attended the party as California's lockdown restrictions were eased. The state is currently in the midst of a spike in cases and hospital admissions which has seen Governor Gavin Newsom close down the majority of bars and restaurants again for at least the next three weeks.

Gustavo Lopez, his brother-in-law, told NBC that from March until early June, Macias was following guidelines and only going out when necessary.

However, in early June Macias travelled 70 miles to Lake Elsinore to attend a party with a large group of others.

Included in the crowd was a friend, who Lopez did not name, who had tested positive for coronavirus and knew about the diagnosis.

Members of staff at his Crown Hospital at Oja Oshodi, Akure, the state capital, were seen crying and the neighbours too were lamenting the sudden death of the commissioner.

Tinubu In Shock As el-Rufai Leads Charge Against Him

Following President Muhammadu Buhari’s intervention, some founders and pillars of the All Progressives Congress, APC, have returned to the trenches to re-strategise and plot fresh plans to realise their 2023 political quests.

Notable leaders of the party considered to be posturing for 2023 include Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu; Transport Minister, Rotimi Amaechi; Kaduna governor, Nasir el-Rufai; and Ekiti governor, Kayode Fayemi among others.

Many observers saw the dissolution of the NWC as targeted against Tinubu and his 2023 presidential ambition. The Presidency and Governor Buni dismissed this insinuation as balderdash and insisted that the sack of the NWC was to save the APC from implosion. Indeed, Vanguard checks showed that the party, before the dissolution, was facing 11 lawsuits in various courts.

This was contained in a statement sent to POLITICS NIGERIA signed by his spokesman, Tunde Rahman. Read below;

Travel firms report biggest Saturday sales EVER as people rush to book before 'traffic light' system letting Brits holiday in safest destinations WITHOUT quarantine is unveiled on Wednesday and comes into force on July 6

Families can again book summer getaways after ministers agreed last night to open-air corridors with dozens of countries.

Under the traffic light system, countries will be rated green, amber or red based (right) on infection levels, the reliability of official data and confidence in test and trace systems. 

I Warned Bola Tinubu That This Day Would Come - Farooq Kperogi

The political coalition between Muhammadu Buhari’s CPC and Bola Tinubu’s ACN has all but collapsed. There was nothing even remotely surprising about it. In previous columns, media interviews, and social media updates, I predicted that this would happen.

For example, in my June 23, 2018 column titled “Buhari’sJune 12 Pandering and Naivety of Yoruba Elite,” I wrote:

“Buhari may well get a second term with the help of votes from the Southwest. But one thing is as certain as tomorrow’s date: he will spectacularly fall out with the Yoruba elite whose support he’s bending over backwards to court now. He’d no longer have a need for them after 2019 and might even remember that they betrayed him in 2011.

“These same people would then turn against not just Buhari but the entire North. If we’re alive till then, we’d remind them that they are complicit in their own fate. An Italian proverb says, “When a man deceives me once, it is his fault; when twice, it is mine.”

Trump says Democrat cities like Baltimore and Oakland are so lawless it's like 'living in hell' and claims Chicago is 'worse than Afghanistan' during town hall - then warns Biden 'will destroy our country'

President Donald Trump compared some U.S. cities to Afghanistan as he blasted protesters attempting to pull down statues as 'troublemakers' and 'anarchists'. Speaking in a Fox News interview with Sean Hannity on Thursday night, the president claimed that living in cities like Chicago, Detroit, Oakland and Baltimore was 'like living in hell' as he called for stop and frisk tactics to be used to cut down crime. 'It’s not a racist statement,' Trump said. 'Black people come up to me and say "thank you". 

They want help.' Trump placed the blame with 'Democrat-run' cities where protests against racial injustice are ongoing, saying they 'don't love our country' and are 'taking over'. 'Democrats think it’s wonderful, they’re destroying our the country,' he said of the unrest. Trump took part in the town hall with Fox News in Green Bay, Wisconsin, where he was visiting Fincantieri Marinette Marine, a Marinette shipyard, to announce a new contract with the military that he says could create up to 6,000 jobs in the area.

Fayemi who accused Ojudu of blackmail and being behind the "fabricated" report, stated that he had no plan nor reason to see President Buhari on Tuesday afternoon.

In a statement released by his Chief Press Secretary Yinka Oyebode, Governor Fayemi said he met with Buhari earlier in the company of three of his colleagues – Governor Abubakar Atiku Bagudu (Kebbi), Governor Simon Lalong (Plateau) and Governor Badaru Abubakar (Jigawa). Also present at that meeting was the Chief of Staff to the President, Prof Ibrahim Gambari and Honourable Attorney General of the Federation, Abubakar Malami. 

Buhari accused of supporting "illegality" as APC National working committee boycott NEC meeting

4
The crisis rocking the All Progressives Congress (APC) has taken another turn as President Buhari has been accused of supporting "illegality" by members of the All Progressives Congress (APC) national working committee (NWC).

 Reports indicate that factional Acting Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Victor Giadom got President Buhari's backing to preside over the party’s virtual National Executive Council (NEC) meeting today June 25. President Buhari who spoke through his spokesperson Garba Shehu on Wednesday, June 24, said he will attend the NEC meeting because “the law is on the side of Victor Giadom as Acting National Chairman."


Reacting to this, Hillard Eta, vice-chairman of the APC (south-south) and Waziri Bulama, the acting national secretary said an emergency NWC meeting was held after Buhari declared support for Giadom.

Waziri Bulama Declares Giadom NEC Meeting Illegal

The National Secretary of the All Progressives Congress, Waziri Bulama, has said that a meeting of the National Executive Committee called by Victor Giadom, Deputy National Secretary, was illegal.

This is coming hours after President Muhammadu Buhari backed Giadom as the authentic Acting National Chairman of the APC and promised to attend the meeting scheduled for Aso Rock.

Bulama in a statement on Wednesday urged members of the party to disregard the notice of the NEC meeting because Gaidom was not part of the National Working Committee or an APC member.

The party has been engulfed in a crisis following an order by the Appeal Court affirming the suspension of Adams Oshiomhole as APC National Chairman

Fayemi Cautions The Nation Newspaper And Ojudu Over "Misleading Publication"

PRESS RELEASE

OF  EX-SENATOR OJUDU AND NATION NEWSPAPER’S MISLEADING STORY

The attention of the general public is being drawn to a misleading publication by the Nation Newspapers online with headline “Fayemi’s failed mission to Villa with Giadom”, published in the online edition of the Nation Newspaper on Wednesday, June 24th, 2020.

The falsehood, we gathered reliably, was fabricated by a senior aide of the Presidency and a former Senator, Babafemi Ojudu, and planted in The Nation Newspaper, after it was rejected by some State House Correspondents, who rebuffed the former Senator for the misleading and malicious story.

It is on record that Senator Ojudu, in his desperate bid to rubbish Governor Fayemi, had told his close associates that he would battle Governor Fayemi, who is also the Chairman of the Nigerian Governors’ Forum (NGF) with falsehood and cheap blackmail in his nefarious attempt to destabilize APC in Ekiti State.

Ajimobi-Led NWC to boycott Thursday's APC NEC Meeting

The Senator Abiola Ajimobi-led National Working Committee (NWC) of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) has said that President Muhammadu Buhari was blackmailed or ill-advised into accepting to attend the party’s National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting slated for tomorrow.

The party’s National Vice Chairman, South-South, Hilliard Eta, said this in a statement on Wednesday signed the acting National Secretary, Arc. Waziri Bulama, after a meeting at the party’s national secretariat.

He added that the NWC will not be attending Thursday’s NEC meeting, describing it as illegal. The NWC members stated this on Wednesday night after a meeting at the national secretariat of the party.

Tinubu's Presidential Ambition Crumbles? Unable To Visit Aso Villa As President Buhari Recognises Victor Giadom As Party's Acting National Chairman

Former Lagos State governor, Bola Ahmed Tinubu's ambition to become Nigeria's President has practically crashed to the ground after President Muhammadu Buhari rejected former Edo State governor, Adams Oshiomhole, to support Victor Giadom as Acting National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress, SaharaReporters can confidently report.

Tinubu, a two-term governor of Lagos State, had been courting President Buhari and the cabal -- a group of power brokers at the Aso Rock Villa led by late Chief of Staff, Abba Kyari -- with the hope of clinging the APC Presidential ticket come 2023.

Tinubu had strategically imposed his loyalist, Oshiomhole, a former labour movement leader in Nigeria, as APC Chairman hoping that he will pave the way for him to obtain the APC ticket for the 2023 presidential election.

Eze Chukwuemeka To Tinubu: “Any Further Attacks On Amaechi Will Be Resisted”

Former National Publicity Secretary of the defunct New People’s Democratic Party (nPDP) and chieftain of the All Progressives Congress, Chief Eze Chukwuemeka Eze has called on the National leader of the APC, Bola Ahmed Tinubu to leave Transport minister, Rotimi Amaechi alone.

Eze, in a statement sent to POLITICS NIGERIA on Wednesday night, asked Tinubu to also reign in the Special Adviser to the Lagos State Governor on Drainage and Water Resources, Joe Igbokwe over his recent comments on Amaechi.

“Inconsequential, as it may seem, those recent paradoxical and absurd statements credited to the Special Adviser to the Lagos State Governor on Drainage and Water Resources, Joe Igbokwe, against the personality of the Transportation Minister, Rt. Hon. Chibuike Amaechi, calls for serious concern.”

“Igbokwe had ranted that the Hon. Minister of Transportation and South-South Leader of the APC, Rt. Hon. Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi may be dropped by President Muhammadu Buhari, if he fails to stop the Rivers State chapter of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) “from embarrassing APC Nigeria”.

I plan for betrayal, I plan for backstabbing, I also plan for reunion & forgiveness long before they happen.I expect nothing, I expect anything, I expect everything"- Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

I bear you no malice or ill-will but in view of what is happening in your political party and given the fact that your good friend, co-conspirator and collaborator, President Muhammadu Buhari, has finally thrown you under the bus and dumped you, I am constrained to write the following.

Cecil Rhodes WILL fall: Oriel College in Oxford opts to remove statue of British colonialist - less than 24 hours after latest protests through the city in wake of BLM movement

The governing body of Oxford University's Oriel College says it wants to remove the controversial statue of Cecil Rhodes. Recent Black Lives Matter protests had reignited the discussion on whether the Rhodes statue should be taken down - particularly in the wake of a monument to Edward Colston being toppled and dumped in the harbour in Bristol. Oriel board members met today to discuss the future of the monument, which is one of the dozens of targets appearing on a list of statues Black Lives Matter protesters want to see taken down for links to racism and colonialism. 

They said in a statement today they want to see the Rhodes statue removed. Critics argue Rhodes paved the way for the apartheid in southern Africa, and raise the issue with his time as leader of the Cape Colony, from 1890 to 1896, when the government restricted black Africans' rights by increasing the financial criteria people required in order to vote. Demonstrators have been marching through the streets of Oxford this week as senior administrators met to discuss the future of the Rhodes sculpture. The board has now decided they want to remove the statue, along with the King Edward Street Plaque. Oriel College opened its Rhodes Building in 1911 after receiving a £100,000 from the former student, who died in 1902.

Why Tinubu Rescued Oshiomhole, But Turned His Back On Obaseki

Godwin Obaseki, the embattled governor of Edo state, had his moment not too long ago and almost brought down Adam Oshiomhole, the National Chairman of the All Progressives (APC).
