Stop Press! IRATE YOUTHS *DIDN'T* SET CHIKE OKAFOR'S BUS ABLAZE OVER DIALYSIS MACHINE AND WATER TREATMENT PLANT By Francis Ndimkoha It was Mark Twain that said, and I believe it’s an indisputable fact that “A lie can travel halfway around the world while the truth is lacing up its boots.” This sums up the fable shamelessly peddled by Sam Onwuemeodo’s Whitepaper Newspaper, with the aforementioned subject, which prompted this rejoinder. It is so sad, the cruel fate that has befallen the hallowed journalism profession, that it has now become a safe haven for all manner of talebearers, propagandists, and rhymesters, leaving little or no space for well-trained pen pushers, who recognize that every story has two sides, both of which should be accommodated to balance a story. To pick up gossip from a pigsty of a WhatsApp platform and quickly publish same, without basic inquiry defies all known tenets and ethics of journalism, and judging from the years of practice that Sam Onwue

Dist. Senator Rochas Okorocha, Representing Imo West Senatorial District, NASS Complex, Abuja. Sir, AN OPEN LETTER AS YOU EXPRESS YOUR INTEREST IN CONTESTING FOR PRESIDENT OF NIGERIA. We are appaled by your shameless poise to contest for the president of Nigeria after your abysmal reign as governor of imo state.

You were caught on tape boasting in your native language that even the state government and your political enemies do not have the kind of money you have at your disposal. We ask, sir, as a governor, your were not to engage in any profit venture while in office, how then did amass the kind of

Mr. Okorocha is billled to address a World Press Conference by 10 o'clock today. As usual, Sir, he will put on a show. He will talk big, he will pretend to be pious, to be burderned by the state of the land. He will repeat all manner of platitudes and even invoke a new catchphrase, buzzword or mantra. But he is fake. Asides being a fake man, he has weighty allegations on his neck that he has failed to discharge. As we write, his ill-acquired estates in Imo, having been so identified by a competent judicial panel of enquiry, are being seized one by o

Owelle stop sponsoring insecurity in Imo State just because your in-law is not the Governor. The continuous sponsorship of unrest against Imolites with their commonwealth stolen by you, is as callous as a demonic practice. No matter how hard you try, you cannot wriggle away from the complicity. The over 3,600 pump action rifles and 235 Sienna can purchase to empower your security unit during your tenure in office as the Governor, remains unaccounted and these are the tools used by your demonic agents to unleash unrest on Imolites. It's high time Imolites rise in their numbers, under one voice and condemn in totality, Owelle's sponsorship of insecurity in Imo. Ndi Imo must demand for the prosecution of Owelle, let him be held accountable for his involvement in the insecurity ravaging the State. With numerous criminal camps discovered at various sites in Imo West, a Senatorial District represented by Owelle, the senator has not come up against it because he has a hand in It.

Sometime in 2017, the world apex bank introduced a performance based programme that would make them monitor and rate the fiscal performance of states. To that effect, world bank entered into a mutual agreement with the Federal Government which gave birth to a programme known as The State Fiscal Transparency, Accountability and Sustainability (SFTAS) Programme. The rationale behind the State Fiscal Transparency, Accountability and Sustainability (SFTAS) Programme is informed by the current serious fiscal challenges faced by the states with many unable to pay backlog of salary arrears of several months due to poor fiscal governance occasioned by high cost of governance, profligacy poor revenue drive amongst others. Most states with the exception of a few have weak fiscal transparency and accountability structure characterized by unpublished budgets & financial statements, lack of timely budget implementation reports, very high budget deviation (between 30% to 55%) and their C

Your Excellency, IT IS TIME TO PUT EMEKA ON TRIAL, PLEASE Recent utterances of a former Government House squatter, Mr. Emeka Ihedioha, have constrained us to request your prompt action, Sir, before lunatics take over the asylum.

WE HAVE RESTORED DEMOCRACY IN IMO, SAYS GOV. UZODIMMA AS STAKEHOLDERS PASS VOTE OF CONFIDENCE ON STATE GOVERNMENT The Imo State Governor, Senator Hope Uzodimma has declared that his government has succeeded in restoring democracy in the State. The Governor made the declaration during the State’s 6th stakeholders meeting involving leaders drawn from across the State. According to the Governor, his government was founded on the democratic principles of open, transparent, accountable, and inclusive governance. “I am sure that many of us will readily recall that there was once upon a time, when the governance process of Imo State was shrouded in secrecy. Not only did Imo people not know how their State was governed, there was in fact a big wedge between the people and the government. So wide was the wedge that those who attempted to cross it to know what was happening in government got marooned in it. I challenge anyone to produce one single document of the previous administration
