Obasanjo Reveals Why IBB Annulled June 12 Election
Former President Olusegun ObasanjoFormer President of Nigeria, Chief Olusegun Obasanjo has revealed that the June 12, 1993 presidential election presumably won by MKO Abiola was annulled because of “bad belle.” Former military Head of State, General Ibrahim Badamasi Babangida (IBB), annulled the election adjudged to be one of the most credible poll Nigeria has ever had. Obasanjo lamented the annulment, saying it was done out of “bad belle,” a pidgin word for jealousy. He stated this while speaking on Sunday after his investiture as a trustee of the Abeokuta Club, a sociocultural organisation of Egba people of Ogun state. Obasanjo said the cancellation of June 12 election results denied the people of Egbaland the privilege of having three of its sons occupy the seat of the president. Also Read: Doctors Threaten To Resume Strike In Four Weeks If Demands Are Not Met “When Abeokuta Club was in the process of being birthed, things in Abeokuta were not as rosy as they are today,” Obasanjo said. “And the sons of Abeokuta, who were in Lagos, put their heads together in late Chief Sobo Sowemimo’s residence to think of what they could do to improve the development of Abeokuta as a city. “I pay tributes to all those founding members, those who have departed this world and those who are still here. “I want to thank the club for this honour being bestowed on me and the honour being bestowed on my school mate, MKO Abiola, which he richly deserved. “Kabiyesi, the Alake (of Egbaland) alluded to it. Normally, when you win a cup three times, you keep that cup. Isn’t it? If not for bad belle, Abeokuta would have produced President of Nigeria three times, in which case, we should have kept it permanently. “But be that as it may, we have a great heritage. And we should be proud of our heritage. On this note, I will say on this occasion, I thank the President, the patron and grand patron, members of Board of Trustees, the executive. “I want to say this, I will continue to contribute my quota to the development and growth of this club and by extension, the development and growth of Abeokuta, of Ogun State, of Nigeria, of African and indeed the of world in whichever way I could.”

RE: SOS TO HIS EXCELLENCY, GOVERNOR BABAJIDE SANWO-OLU
Once again, we are constrained to address the deliberate misrepresentations, media spin and outright falsehood of the Osborne Foreshore 2 Residents Association (OSFRA) in her desperate bid to keep other law-abiding citizens out of the estate in the name of condescending exclusivity. BLOCKING THE GATE Lekki Gardens does not block gates considering the estate gates are manned by those assigned that responsibility by OSFRA. OSFRA has made it a habit to deny entry to our construction trucks driving into the estate to conduct legitimate business on plots of land for which Building approvals have been duly granted by the State government through the approved Ministry and in the process continued to inconvenience and inflict pain on her residents. While acting out her ill-conceived plans to infringe on our rights, they try to progressively shut the gates against our vehicles as they drive in and, in the process, shut out other users on the two-lane access road into the estate. A clear example of their flawed and desperate approach took place on the 7th of April 2021, barely a week after a stakeholders’ meeting convened by the Ministry of Planning and Urban development where stakeholders were advised to engage and resolve all issues. OSFRA blocked the gate against our trucks, and it took the intervention of the police to allow us in and clear the heavy traffic jam that resulted from their action. Feeling thwarted in their plans to frustrate and malign us, OSFRA led by the chairman Mrs. Chinwe Ezenwa-Mbah took their baseless and desperate vendetta to a new dimension by mobilizing touts to storm our site where they resorted to rough handling and beating up our contractors and staff insisting they leave the site. Only for the association to come out to lie in a national daily newspaper the next day that they did not know why the gate was blocked. MISREPRESENTATION Another desperate attempt by the association is the misrepresentation and twisting out of context of comments made by our Chief Executive officer at the stakeholders’ meeting to cast him and the business in bad light before the public. On the number of plots owned, our CEO only alluded to the fact that our several footprints in the estate make us a substantial stakeholder who has as much interest in the physical and infrastructural wellbeing of the estate as any other stakeholder or group in the estate. Given the issues under consideration at the session had to do with building and construction, his comment on number of houses built by the business was about qualification and the right to speak to the issues rather than a statement of pride. Needless to say, the published number of units in our projects is a mischievous exaggeration and misrepresentation of facts by OSFRA. OSFRA’S ANTECEDENTS AND SELF-HELP We would like to draw the attention of the public to the antecedents of the association under this present leadership. They started out by resorting to self-help, arbitrarily cutting down our signages and blockage of our sites without any legal authority or court order. Matters in Court There are Court orders stopping OSFRA from preventing our Company, a legitimate Stakeholder and owner of properties in the estate, its agents and contractors from accessing the estate to conduct its legitimate business. Yet OSFRA led by a legal practitioner continues to take deliberate and belligerent steps to undermine the authority of the Court on the matters between our Company and the association that are sub judice. Highhandedness and usurping authority It is unfortunate that OSFRA believes it is more competent to determine land use issues over and above the State government and its agencies authorized by law. They have petitioned and invited the Ministry of Town Planning & Urban Development and the governor on issues related to the approval of our projects in the estate and the Ministry had reiterated severally that it is the Statutory and Regulatory Authority vested with the powers to apprise applications for building approvals and permits and that it had in line with the powers vested in it granted the approvals to our Company. Suffice to state that the Ministry is robustly equipped with staff with the requisite technical skills whose duty it is to ensure applications for approvals are accorded the necessary professional scrutiny. OSFRA cannot therefore arrogate to itself the non-existent power to superintend, review or scrutinize lawful approvals granted by the Ministry. To agree otherwise would suggest OSFRA is a supervising Agency over the Affairs of the Ministry and by extension the State Government. OSFRA as Complainant, Prosecutor, Judge and Enforcer OSFRA had approached Law Enforcement agencies on the issue of denying us access into the Estate and been advised to obey the existing Court order. OSFRA has however without let or hindrance recklessly ignored lawful advisory, flagrantly disobeyed court orders and attempted to undermine the regulatory authority of the Ministry. OSFRA has by these unwholesome acts constituted itself into Complainant, Prosecutor, Judge and Enforcer of its imaginary judgement. This must not and cannot be allowed to continue. Smear Campaign OSFRA when advised by Law Enforcement Agencies to desist from its acts of self-help, runs to the press on matters of pure emotions without any scientific basis or backing, resorting to campaigns of calumny and name calling not restricted to our Company alone but to any person or group of persons or institutions that it perceives as not condoning its excesses. SUMMARY AND SUBMISSION It has become very clear that OSFRA will stop at nothing to get their way, even if it means standing in the way of progress and development all for the achievement of their personal agenda at the detriment of the common good of Lagosians. A group of individuals that bought property like others have decided to arrogate to themselves powers that belong to the government and the police all to force us to behave in the way they want us to. They have gone to the Ministry to try to force a review of our approvals but at no time did the Ministry agree to their selfish demands contrary to what they would have the public believe as they do not have the power to cause prior and properly obtained approvals to be revoked. OSFRA has no respect for the Court, the Ministry and by extension the Lagos State government. OSFRA is clearly the AGGRESSOR and not a Victim. This resort to undiluted emotional blackmail against other stakeholders must stop as it is an apparent fallacy. OSFRA must imbibe and exhibit the maturity to engage other stakeholders not just for the sake of posterity but for an all-inclusive victory to SAVE THE SOUL OF THE ESTATE. On our part, we remain committed to the use of dialogue and mediation towards the resolution of any tangible issues that require our attention. SIGNED MANAGEMENT OF LEKKI GARDENS ESTATES LIMITED

LG Mobile Lost The Battle, Shutdown its Mobile Phone Business
LG Electronics, South Korea’s second-largest appliance firm after Samsung, is closing down its mobile phone business after the division lost billions in recent years. The firm was once considered a pioneer of the Android operating system, collaborating with Google on the Nexus series in the early 2010s. But it has long struggled to increase sales, entering the market late and facing tough competition from emerging cheaper Chinese rivals such as Huawei. It was regularly listed among the world’s top 10 smartphone manufacturers but according to tracker Counterpoint, the last time it recorded a global market share of three percent or more was in the second quarter of 2018. The unit has recorded losses for 23 consecutive quarters since 2015, with the cumulative deficit reaching about 5 trillion won ($4.4 billion) by the end of last year. What do you expect…? When a business continues to run on losses, it is best to shut it down says an analyst. However, LG said that its strategic decision to exit the incredibly competitive mobile phone sector will enable the company to focus resources in growth areas such as electric vehicle components, connected devices, smart homes, robotics, artificial intelligence, and business-to-business solutions, as well as platforms and services. LG said that it will continue to sell the existing inventory but won’t produce new phones. LG confirmed that it will provide service support and software updates for customers of existing mobile products for a period that will vary by region. The company said that it will work collaboratively with suppliers and business partners throughout the closure of the mobile phone business. LG mobile division failed to produce a result, they couldn’t stand the competition among major competitors in the entry-level mobile phone market, which is why it is best to shut it down.

WhatsApp Update: Cross-Platform Chat Migration Between Android, iOS
A few changes are coming to WhatsApp which includes the possibility to transfer your chat history to a different WhatsApp platform in a future update i.e from Android to iOS platform. Once the feature has completed testing in the beta versions of WhatsApp, it should allow users to migrate their chat history from WhatsApp on iOS to WhatsApp on Android, and vice versa. WhatsApp says the main issue for enabling the feature is “difference in data formats” – backups on Android go to Google Drive, while Apple users have their chats on iCloud. Unfortunately, they are not cross-compatible and this denies users from transferring their chat history between the two platforms. But it’s about to be resolved even though there is no timeline when this will be added, but the source said people who have the latest WhatsApp version on the App Store should be able to see it when it’s added. We await more updates from the developers. Source

Akon Crypto City, Here is Everything You Should Know
Cryptocurrency is the new oil money; if you are not yet on board, you should get in now because right now, it is still too early not to be part of it. Do you still remember your favorite one-time rapper, Akon? Well, he’s about to build a dedicated crypto city in Uganda. According to foreign reports, Akon will begin to build another crypto city in Uganda, East Africa. The government has announced the allocation of land for the project. The report has it that Akon City will occupy about half the area of the City of London. Akon stated that the Crypto City will help attract more investment while also creating jobs for Ugandans. Akon City will take roughly 15yrs to be completed i.e. in 2036. Already Akon has spent US$6 billion to build a larger encrypted city in Senegal. The project covers an area of 2,000 acres or about 3.12 square miles. These two future cities will use Akoin (AKN), Akoin’s cryptocurrency based on the Stellar blockchain. Akon said at the press conference: “There are so many things in Uganda that I never knew. I want people to understand how beautiful Uganda is, and the best way is to build my city here.” The Senegalese business man, Akon nor the Ugandan government hasn’t given any information about the estimated cost of the city.

Samsung Launches iTest to Entice iPhone Users to Turn their Devices
Samsung has launched a website called “iTest” in a bit to win over iPhone users. The site allows iPhone users to get a little taste of Samsung all from within their iPhone. Switching from an iPhone to Android is a big task for most people and this is exactly what Samsung is trying to tackle. By letting users experience how OneUI works and what it offers, Samsung is hoping to show iPhone users that their ecosystem is better. When you visit Samsung’s iTest website, you’ll be prompted to add the web application to your iPhone’s home screen. Once you do this, you can launch it just like any other app and get some hands-on time with the Android interface. When you’re in the Samsung iTest app on your iPhone, you’ll receive a variety of simulated text notifications and phone calls highlighting different things to try out and different ways of communicating with friends. And of course, Samsung is also using this as an opportunity to promote its other Galaxy products, such as Galaxy Buds Pro, Galaxy Watch3, and Galaxy Buds Live. Samsung said In as much as you’ll enjoy the simulated experience, it lags in some areas too… the apps only allow you to take a look at the splash screens, and there are also technical limitations to web apps. You can access the site all over the world by clicking here. iPhone users, are you really going to switch to Android OS? via

CBN Suspends Fintechs, Third party From offering BVN Validation Service
It appears CBN of Nigeria is trying all they can to make FinTechs sweats and Nigerians get their NIN verification number by all means. The Central Bank of Nigeria has reportedly suspended fintech and other third-party partners from offering BVN validation services. This was made known in an email recently shared to all paystack subscribers which stated that; We’ve recently been made aware of a regulatory directive from the primary custodian of Nigeria’s BVN service to all their partners to suspend the provision of the BVN validation service to their third-party partners. This directive affects every non-bank in Nigeria that offers BVN Validation services. In light of this news, we’re hereby informing you that the BVN Resolve service will be temporarily unavailable starting at midnight, April 8, 2021.” I equally got a similar message from Bundle Africa since they use available technology from Paystack to match their subscriber’s identity to the BVN database. What this means is that non-banks will have to look for alternative ways to carry out identity verification (KYC) for their users through NIN, Voter ID, Driver’s license, etc. If your BVN has been validated before on any Fintech platform, you may(I’m not sure yet) be required to re-confirm your identity. Though we are still waiting for more updates on this. H/T: Nairametrics

See the Deputy Governor’s tweet below; Dear Sowore, I thought families, especially, the children are out of bounds in political brickbats? Abi, your school of thoughtlessness does not teach sense and sensibility? Anyway, I too have a prayer for you… 1. I pray that you are Nigerian and patriotic enough to stay at home, establish and have your family here in Nigeria, just like I have done. *(It will teach you to truly work for the improvement of the country for their sakes) I pray you are man enough to hustle with your mates, working to assume leadership of the Nation by paying your dues, and not trying to jump in through the window like a palliative thief. (It will teach you that your contemporaries at home are not indolent layabouts looking for a saviour from abroad to whom they will handover govt once he wears an orange beret and yells ‘revolution’ or ‘Buhari Must Go) I pray for you that you will truly come to love this great country and her people with a mindset to sacrifice for her and not to sacrifice her to your lust for power) (It will stop you from trying to set fire to your own father’s house simply because you have a mat in your rich uncle’s BQ who has induced you with peanuts in the name of activism so he can claim the land once the house is destroyed) I pray you have the balls to learn from some of us and begin your leadership quest from your State. *(You will finally learn Leadership 101, not #gbasgbos and chewing gum activism. I recommend you start as councillor in your ward, if you know your ward) I pray you grow out of your desire to to seek attention and play to the gallery. *(Leadership and Governance is not a circus, you know and a dancing monkey can only grab attention for only so long) I pray you redeem your already lost image amongst genuine freedom fighters. *(Shebi you know say dem no send you again?) I pray my daughter won’t need to defend you pro bono when you are 70, still wearing beret, sagging trousers and still unable to distinguish between lawful and unlawful protest. Shebi you see the travails of your types wey invade US Congress in the name of revolution?) Sowore this is brother to brother, comrade to comrade, Aluta to Aluta… guy e get wetin person dey grow pass. Leave this lane and get serious if you really want to do politics. You don old pass this thing. Another brotherly advice: Find another target. Kogi is getting on very well and fine. This your contract don cut. Those who gave you this job, tell them say we be street pass you. E no get where you fit take your madness pass. We go cure am for you. All of you unpatriotic citizens wey dey plan burn Naija after securing your families safely abroad, make una go restrategize. I pray this sinks and leads you on the path to being a better man. Thus far you are way below the bar of a patriotic citizen.”
