PDP Chairmanship : Sheriff Was Ousted Because Of Links With Boko Haram - Dokpesi




Former DAAR Communications Plc Chairman , Raymond Dokpesi , has revealed why embattled factional Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party , PDP , Sen . Ali Modu Sheriff , was ousted as National leader of the party .

Recall that Sheriff was sacked during the party’s National Convention in Port Harcourt , Rivers State on May 21 , 2016 , after which a National Caretaker Committee under the leadership of Sen. Ahmed Makarfi was inaugurated .


Despite his removal, the former Borno State governor has continued to insist that he remains the leader of the opposition party, stressing that he will only vacate his office if allowed to select his successor and to organise a new National Convention for the party .

But speaking in Asaba , Delta State on Monday , Dokpesi who is also vying for the role of National Chairmanship of the party, explained that Sheriff ’s link to Boko Haram was a major reason .

According to the former DAAR Communications Chairman , the former Borno State governor had some baggage associated with the dreaded insurgents group , Boko Haram .

“ Sheriff has a little bit of baggage because from where he came from , he is not supported. Boko Haram is a major reason our son , Goodluck Jonathan lost the last presidential election .

“ So there was no need for us to bring somebody associated with Boko Haram to represent us if we wish to reclaim the presidency in 2019 ,” Dokpesi Saud.

King Of Swazi chooses Wife, Publicly Test Girls' Virginity As They Dance Naked. (Photos)

A common tradition in Swaziland (Swazi) permits the King, Mswati, to choose a new bride every year. This is done in a festival named Swazi Reed Dance Festival where girls are paraded and tested publicly to know their virginity status. It has been a long time tradition in Swaziland and not the first time this controversial issue is making it into the news. Although, many consider this barbaric and backward, it’s a tradition the people willingly embrace as the aim is to help King Mswati choose a wife. As part of Swazi custom and norms, that time of the year has come, when the King chooses his bride and again, he has reportedly tested some of the volunteered girls’ virginity before choosing a wife for himself. Thousands of pretty virgins’ were seen in this year’s edition dancing topless for King Mswati III, on what is called the Reed Dance ceremony, also known as Umhlanga), hoping to be his next wife. The Reed Dance ceremony is an annual Swazi and Zulu tradition hel...

Ijakumo Movie Review

  Whatever this movie was set to give, it didn't give.  Even the stripping is not giving. Why is the Sharon girl sex talking like she is doing spoken words???  I liked the babe in "Listening Ears", but I feel she is not 'mature' enough theatrically for this role. Wait, what I noticed was that Toyin and her crew didn't know there was a girl who looks like the Sharon girl in his church. A very crazy error that no director should make. If they had come in with this, maybe the finding out they were twin bla BLA BLA suspense would suspense well. But as the director or script writer were very myopic, the twin shii didn't hold water. If they had said or showed that they picked the Ugandan girl because she looked like the Nigerian girl in his church, e for make perfect sense. Seriously, I am miffed. The only thing that thrilled me was Kunle Remi and his lines. O mard gan. 🤣🤣🤣 "Emi mimo ni kin gbenu sohun". 🤣🤣🤣 "So, idi Uganda lo Fe baye mi j...

Sista Movie Review

  The opening scene did me in. I read somewhere that the first few 5 minutes of a movie determines if it is worth it.  Trust me, Sista movie hooked me in less than 5 minutes. I loved the straight to the point opening. No show of the Third Mainland Bridge. No lazy show of Lagos traffic. Nothing. Also, the past/present sequence made crazy sense.  Seeing Kehinde Bankole in that role is refreshing, it's not what she is used to, but she did well. Chimezie was quite not in character, or maybe he didn't bond with Ade Herself. I don't know. He is better than what I saw him act here. As usual Aunty Ronke Oshodi Oke gave it her all. This Tope Owokoniran babe tried with her Hausa accent. I love it!!! I think this is the best of her I have seen so far. I'd say this is a movie Aunty Biodun Stephen put her everything to make. This is a beautiful work of art. I love every piece of it. The story line is dope. Directing is flawless. The fun part was that even though It was predictable f...
