I’ll beat Fayemi in any election, Hon. Opeyemi Bamidele boasts

A member of the House of Representatives and Labour Party, LP, governorship aspirant in Ekiti State, Hon. Opeyemi Bamidele has boasted that he has strong political structure and goodwill in the state to defeat the incumbent governor, Kayode Fayemi in any election. Opeyemi declared that the image and popularity of his new party was increasing on daily basis despite its newness in the state.

The lawmaker, who recently decamped from All Progressives Congress, APC, to LP to pursue his governorship ambition, also told his political detractors to refrain from harassment, saying no amount of threats or killings would make him back down on his governorship ambition.

Bamidele, who is representing Ado/Irepodun/Ifelodun Federal Constituency, made the statement in Ado Ekiti, yesterday, during the grand finale of his tour of the 16 local government areas.

Deposed Deji of Akure Says ‘I’ve Learnt My Lessons, Reinstate Me’

The deposed Deji of Akure, Oluwadare Adepoju Adesina, has pleaded with the Ondo State government to vacate the deposition and banishment orders placed on him in 2010.

The deposed monarch based his appeal on lessons learnt from the ordeal, saying he was more prepared to return to the throne of his forefathers since it was the turn of the Adesina house to produce the next Deji.

His appeal is also sequel to the death of the former Deji, Oba Adebiyi Adesida, who died last month at the age of 63 after having reigned for only three years after Adesina’s deposition.

In a letter dated December 19 by his counsel, Sola Oke and addressed to the State Executive Council, Adesina said many of the allegations levelled against him that led to his deposition were as a result of gap in communication and information management.

Excerpts

If you hadn’t hit the limelight would you have still remained in Ajegunle full time?

I will move to anywhere in the world. Like I said earlier on, the world is like a circle you must learn how to move around but ‘Aje’ is still my hood and I still have a belief in it.

What inspired ‘Mercies of Da Lord’?

I was born and brought up in the ways of the Lord but because of worldly things, I derailed. But my mum, who is highly religious and Godly, brought it back. There was a low time in my life when I felt so depressed but my mum with her inspiration woke the spirit of God back in me. I was so filled with the spirit to the extent I never thought possible.

I fasted for 10 months to become governor – Amaechi

Rivers State Governor and Chairman of the Nigerian Governors’ Forum, Rotimi Amaechi has said God, and not man, installed him as the state governor because he fasted and prayed for 10 months before he became the governor.

Amaechi said rather than chase criminals away from the state, the police had decided to shoot innocent citizens.

The governor, who spoke at Saint Vincent De Paul Catholic Church in Port Harcourt on Wednesday, said insecurity in the state was growing because the police had failed to do their job in an unbiased manner.

Maintaining that his government was installed by Jesus Christ, Amaechi urged the people to disregard those who claimed to be responsible for his emergence as the governor of the state.

Catholics, CAN blast Kumuyi for calling Christmas celebration idolatory

Founder of Deeper Life Bible Church, Pastor WF Kumuyi is currently at the receiving end of harsh criticisms by angry Nigerians for calling Christmas celebration idolatory.

The ‘holiness’ preacher in his sermon on Saturday at the just concluded 2013 National December Retreat of the church said, “We are only gathering together because it is the holiday period and love the lord more, and rededicate ourselves more.

“When you find anybody coming in, or any leader, trying to introduce the idolatry of mystery Babylon, that they call Christmas and you want to bring all the Christmas carol saying that is the day that Jesus was born, and you don’t find that in the Acts of the Apostles or in the early church, then you don’t find that in the church either. If you don’t know that before, now you know”, he stated.
