Lagos governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu addressing hundreds of local government workers on Monday at Alausa secretariat

Lagos to increase local govt workers’ salary
“No matter how small it is, we will top it.”

The Lagos State Governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, has promised to “top” salaries of local government workers in the state.

The governor spoke during an interactive session with civil servants at the local government level on Monday at the Adeyemi Bayero Auditorium within the Alausa Secretariat, in Ikeja.

The development comes a few days before the governorship and House of Assembly elections.

“I as governor have promised to increase, no matter how small, the salary of the public servants,” he said.

“The market where the Alausa workers shop, that’s where you shop too. Your children go to the same school, you pay the same fare and all of us are from Lagos.

“I Say No to Cancellation of Results, this election is far from being perfect, just like many before it, but there’s no election in the recent history of this country that has thrown up so much upset like this one.

“If the least expected small parties had upstaged the big ones in their homestead, I don’t see the logic in insinuating malpractice where the big ones are leveraging advantage.

“I, therefore, say no to cancellation of the results. INEC should run the full course and let the process of redress take over afterwards. We will survive this like every other.

“Proposing cancellation is defeatist, and I disagree with the proponents. You can’t celebrate your big wins in some places but challenging those of others in their supposed stronghold. Does it mean you approached the election with a degree of entitlement or mindset? That is double standards. Let everyone lick their wounds, at least, for now!

Romans 6:3-4

3: Do you not know that all of us who have been baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death?

4: We were buried therefore with him by baptism into death, in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, we too might walk in newness of life.

Heavenly Father, thank You for Jesus dying on the Cross so that I may be forgiven of my sins. Thank You for identifying with my unrighteousness so that I may be identified with Your righteousness.

Lord, thank You for identifying with my death so that I may be identified with Your life, my new life in Christ.

Help me to keep all that is not of You nailed to the Cross, and I pray that I may live godly in Christ Jesus, to Your praise and glory. In Jesus’ name Amen.

APC National Youth Leader, Dayo Israel has reacted to Peter Obi’s victory in Lagos.

Nobody should do “One million Man March” Oribu kan mo. Focus on door to door. Party excos, youth leaders, councillors, leaders, we have 10days to #SanwoAgain, go and engage your neighbours. #deliveryourstreet, be humble, get off your high horse. Ise wa o.

Any appointee in Lagos who doesn’t deliver his ward on the 11th March should not bother coming to Alausa on the 13th. Everyone should drop their tinted car and start walking the street. Knock on your neighbours door, beg those you need to beg, make peace. Deliver for #Sanwoolu

Proverbs 11:28

28 :Whoever trusts in his riches will fall, but the righteous will flourish like a green leaf.

Our heavenly and loving Father teach us to trust in You and Your Word. Help us to put our faith in You rather than worldly riches.

Let us be right with you, set our hearts on You, and grow and flourish spiritually. Like the rose of Sharon’s display of vibrant bright flowers and healthy green leaves, let us be vibrant in our faith and display healthy spiritual growth. In Jesus’ holy name. Amen

John 8:36

36: So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed.

Heavenly Father, thank You for Jesus. Thank You for sending Your Son to be my Saviour and for setting me free from slavery to sin.

Thank You that in Christ I am set free from the curse of the Law, and thank You that the punishment that I deserve for my sins was paid for me by the Lord Jesus Christ, so that by faith in Him I am truly set free.

May I live my life to Your praise and glory. In Jesus’ name, Amen

“If anyone does you a kindness, recompense him; but if you have not the means to do so, pray for him until you feel that you have compensated him,” said Bayo Onanuga who is the Director of Media and Publicity of the APC presidential campaign council.

Isaiah 26:4

4: Trust in the LORD forever, for the LORD GOD is an everlasting rock.

Heavenly Father, thank You for Your never-failing goodness and Your promise of peace and righteousness in Christ Jesus my Lord.

Keep me looking to You, depending upon You, and trusting in You every day of my life. In Jesus’ name, I pray Amen.

An advocacy group has filed a suit to compel the Nigerian Drug and Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) to arrest and prosecute Bola Tinubu, presidential candidate of the ruling All Progressives Congress, over allegations of trafficking narcotics and money laundering in the U.S. back in the late 90s.

Specifically, the Registered Trustees of Center for Reform and Public Advocacy group, prayed the Abuja Division of the Federal High Court to issue an order to the anti-narcotics agency to immediately “initiate legal steps for the prosecution of Senator Bola Ahmed Tinubu” per the originating summons seen by Peoples Gazette.

The group asserted it was the NDLEA’s statutory duty to prosecute and weed out drug traffickers in the country.

The suit with reference number FHC/ABJ/CS/2237/2022, filed on December 2, named NDLEA, Attorney-General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Abubakar Malami and Bola Tinubu as the first, second and third defendants.

On September 21, 1993, a federal judge for the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois dismissed the drug and money-laundering charges with prejudice after Mr Tinubu chose to accept a plea deal that required him to forfeit $460,000 in alleged drug trafficking proceeds to the American government.

Although the matter occurred in the late 90s, several Nigerians refuse that the matter be swept under the carpet. They insisted that the former Lagos governor should also stand trial in his home country since he is bidding to occupy the nation’s highest office, a seat that should not be tainted by drug barons and other criminals.

Among such protagonists is Kalu Agu, an Abuja-based lawyer with ties to opposition politics, who has relentlessly sought to hold Mr Tinubu to account over the matter.

Mr Agu has already petitioned the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) and the NDLEA to look into the matter before next year’s election, in which Mr Tinubu is a top contender.

“It is our view that you have a historic duty to ensure that Senator Bola Ahmed Tinubu is called to account for his deeds in money laundering arising from his involvement in narcotics trafficking,” Mr Kalu Agu asserted in the November 8 petitions to the anti-drug and anti-graft agencies.

Bayo Onanuga, Mr Tinubu’s campaign aide, did not immediately return calls and messages sent to his mobile phone for comments on the lawsuit.
