' I will not vote Donald Trump for President'- actor Arnold Schwarzenegger

Former California Governor, Arnold Schwarzenegger joined the number  of Republicans who have come out openly to announce  they will not support Donald Trump for president.
The action actor and politician said on Saturday, that it will be the first time since becoming a citizen in 1983 that he will not vote for the GOP nominee. He did not spell out his reasons for walking away from the candidate of the party he joined after coming to the U..S. in 1968 and through which he served as governor of California. In a post he shared on his handle, he said:

Like many Americans, I've been conflicted this election. I still haven’t made up my mind about how exactly I will vote next month.' 

I have been a proud Republican since I moved to America in 1968 and I heard Nixon’s words about getting the government off our backs, free trade, and defending our liberty with a strong military.

That day I joined the party of Abraham Lincoln, Teddy Roosevelt, and Ronald Reagan.

The legendary actor said though he is a proud member of the republican but he has a bigger duty to hold onto the American flag rather party sentiment also wrote:

So I want to take a moment today to remind my fellow Republicans that it is not only acceptable to choose your country over your party – it is your duty,' he concluded.

He  however, did not indicate for whom he would vote in November presidential election , but being that America practice two party system, it indirectly means he will opt for Hillary Clinton

'This is the time to say no to illegality'- Governor Nyesom Wike

 In the early hour  of today, October 8, 2016, there was a failed attempt by the Department of State Service (DSS) to illegally arrest a Federal High Court judge residing at 35 Force Avenue  in Port Harcourt.The security operatives who were led by Mr Tosin Ajayi, Rivers State Director of the Department of State Services (DSS) and Rivers State Police Commissioner, Mr Francis Odesanya, blocked the entrance of the residence of the Federal High Court judge at about 1AM on saturday morning, claiming that they were acting on orders from above. It was gathered that the State Governor, Nyesom Wike arrived the scene just in time before the illegal abduction could be carried out to prevent the arrest. He was roughly manhandled by the operative and injured his hand. Governor Wike insisted that whatever the situation, the rule of law must prevail in a democratic setting.

He said if the security agencies had a lawful directive to implement, they must follow due process.

 In a state released later in the day, the Department of State Services (DSS) says it raided the homes of some judges across the country over allegations of corruption levelled against them. Speaking to journalists in Abuja, Garba Abdullahi, an agent of the service, said the secret police had been monitoring the lifestyle of some judges, and that it was determined to bring sanity to the judiciary.

The DSS, in the past few days, has embarked on a series of special sting operations involving some judges of the supreme, appeal and high courts, These operations were based on allegations of corruption and other acts of professional misconduct by a few suspected judges. The service is in line with its core mandate, as we have been monitoring the expensive and luxurious lifestyle of some of the judges as well as complaints from the concerned public over judgment obtained fraudulently and on the basis amounts of money paid.The judges involved were invited, upon which due diligence was exhibited and their premises searched. The searches have uncovered huge raw cash of various denominations, local and foreign currencies with real estate worth several millions of naira and documents affirming unholy acts by these judges.  Meanwhile, some of them have made useful statements while a few have‎ declined even with the glaring evidences that were found against them in terms of material cash, documents and property recovered pointing to their compromise. In one of the states where the service operations were conducted, credible intelligence revealed that the judge had $2m stashed in his house.
When he was approached for due search to be conducted, he, in concert with the state governor, mobilised thugs against the service team. The team restrained itself in the face of unbridled provocative activities by those brought in by the governor. Unfortunately, the judge and the governor also engaged the tacit support of a sister security agency. The service surveillance team noticed that upon frustrating the operation, the judge, with the active support of the governor craftily moved the money to an unknown location, which the service is currently making effort to unravel.

However, Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Ezenwo Wike has declared that he is ready to sacrifice his life in order to protect the state from external predators. Speaking during the flag off of the construction of the Abua-Emoh-Egbolom road in Abua/Odual Local Government Area on Saturday, Governor Wike said:

"This is the time to say no to illegality. If they are testing the waters for rigging and mayhem, it will not work"."I told the security operatives who planned to abduct the judge that instead of this impunity, you better take my life. I will always protect the interest of this state.

"When God gives you an assignment, he will give you the enablement to complete the assignment. Rivers people must be ready to fight any form of injustice. I am ready to defend Rivers State with my life".

Photo: a guy presented this art work to Hon Maria Ude Nwachi (Afikpo Chic) and got a bank alert. Read is note

A young man by name Samuel Alum Uche, presented this beautiful art work to Honourable memeber of Ebonyi State House of Assembly,  Hon Maria Ude Nwachi (Afikpo Chic) at her  residential mansion and got a bank alert. Read Samuel's testimonial and photo below note:

I was privileged to meet with her Honourable Maria Ude Nwachi (Afikpo Chic) in her resident the week before last to present an Art Work of herself. I didn't expect what I encountered, a warm welcome like I was someone special. Before I got there I was perspired already by the hotness of the sun. I didn't know how her cook knew I needed a cooler and something to fill my tank. Then I was served a chilled drink and a plate of fried rice with fat chicken piece...

While I waited, I took some selfies,the male guard looked as if he'll tear me apart if I dared to take one more selfie with my phone. That was unprofessional though. But who will dare enter such a mansion without thoughts of taking selfies, well that's not possible...

Then finally I got to see her coming down the stairs in a simple outfit looking friendly. She asked if I had taken something and of course yes I answered. Then she proceeded to make the scene lively by turning on a danceable music for the children and her to dance. There was Okochi, her son, and the rest of the kids who danced; but one thing got me asking; there were so many MARIAs apart from Herself, all the female kids answered Maria and the ones that danced the most got sprayed the most including the dudes too. Then some kids were set to leave, they were visitors too who came just to see her; they danced and got some goodies home.
Finally it got to me, quietly settled, observant and most of all marveled at Her simplicity, kind gesture, amiable nature and the free spirit. Some golden arms chair were brought outside under a tree shades with it boughs flourishing leafs in dark green light. There and then I presented my Artwork, She love it, and we took lots of photos together holding side by side on the frame and then together with the kids, Including Okochi besides me. It was fun filled. I was treated like I would if visited my Auntie...
Thereafter, she asked me what she could do for me. I can still remember each of her words; "I will help you if you come to me for help even without the Artwork." So, the discussion went well. She assured me of something and asked for my account details and that I should be expectant before the month ending. She gave me a transport fare back home that is enough to take me to Lagos and back when I just live within Afikpo. Then yester-morning I received an alert from Her. Your guess is as good as mine.

She's very hospitable, friendly, liberal and most of all philanthropic if you get to know her. She makes sure to give more than she receives - in cash value, material values and all you can think of. If there's one more as her, Ebonyi will transform speedily and becomes a better place to live. I can't thank you enough Ma. You have a huge heart that I can't stop singing about it. Thank you. Once again and again."
