The All Progressives Congress, APC, Governorship candidate in Lagos
State, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, on Wednesday disclosed the kind of government
he will run if elected to govern the state in 2019.
Sanwo-Olu promised to run an all-inclusive government if elected governor of Lagos State.
In a series of tweets, the APC governorship candidate stated that his
administration will listen and respond to the yearning of all
“Lagosians.”
He tweeted: “By the grace of God, if I am elected as governor of
Lagos State, I will run an administration that listens and responds to
the yearnings of the people. A government that is open and inclusive is
my promise to Lagosians.
“The position of Governor of Lagos State is not one of pleasure or one that affords the opportunity for limitless glamour.
“It is one that demands the highest degree of discipline, dedication, industry, commitment and sense of purpose.
#SanwooluForGovernor #IstandWithSanwoolu.”
Sanwo-Olu, who has the backing of Bola Tinubu, a National Leader of APC,
emerged as the party’s candidate, following a fallout between the
latter and the state Governor, Akinwunmi Ambode.
Chelsea forward, Eden Hazard wants Real Madrid to promise him that they will make a big-money move for him next summer.
This, according to Daily Telegraph, will propel him to tell his club, Chelsea, that he wants to leave Stamford Bridge.
The 27-year-old has been longing to play for Real Madrid, and
revealed this week that he was often tempted by the prospect of joining
the La Liga giants.
“Sometimes in my head, I wake up in the morning and think I want to go,” he said on Monday.
“Sometimes I think I want to stay. It is a hard decision… It is my future.”
According to the report, Hazard wants Real Madrid to make a signal of
intent before making any decision over his future in the capital.
The newspaper claimed that the player will wait to see whether the Spanish club promise to submit a huge offer next summer.
If Real conform, Hazard will likely tell Chelsea that he will not sign a new deal and leave.
The Daily Telegraph added that Hazard is not interested in leaving
Chelsea for any club other than Real Madrid, meaning that the Blues
could still retain the 27-year-old if Real’s interest somehow wavers.
Media personality and Big Brother Naija host, Ebuka Ebi-Uchendu, has shared his concern about the 2019 general elections.
Ebuka has predicted that ”there will blood”, apparently referring to a possible violence before or during the poll.
The battle of who becomes the country’s next president entered
another dimension at the weekend as both the ruling All Progressives
Congress, APC, and the main opposition Peoples Democratic Party, PDP,
presented their flag-bearers to Nigerians.
While President Muhammadu Buhari emerged unopposed from the ruling
party, former Vice President, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar defeated 11 other
aspirants, including the Senate President, Bukola Saraki; Sokoto State
Governor, Aminu Tambuwal; former Senate President, David Mark; Senator
Rabiu Kwankwaso and others to emerge as PDP’s standard-bearer.
Ebuka, in a tweet on Tuesday, noted that the next couple of months, between now and the election will be very interested.
According to him, “Its going to be a very interesting couple of months between now and the elections. There’ll be blood.”

Usually we only see stuff like this happen in movies, but it seems this one actually happened for real, as a woman is reportedly crazy as a result of her own personal experience
Woman Discovers She’s Been Married To A Dead Man For 6 Years, Then This Happens (With Photos) 1
A D V E R T I S E M E N T
The woman identified as Mrs Grace Amadi, recently discovered she had been married to and raising two children with a man who reportedly died as far back as 2002. According to reports, Grace who had been married to her husband identified as Tony for six years, was said to have lived peacefully with him.
The pair had their two daughters in 2011 and 2013 and lived in waterside in old Port Harcourt town, where Tony also had a job he went to every morning. Grace got to know about her husband’s death following a visit from someone who claimed to be his distant relative, who had come to the house when Tony had left for work, bearing old pictures of him. Grace was said to have started screaming in disbelief, fear and anger, while also throwing herself on the ground repeatedly in a bid to inflict injuries on herself, causing her neighbours to gather and see what caused her anguish.
A D V E R T I S E M E N T
According to the neighbours, the pictures brought by Tony’s relative showed one where he was married to another woman in May 2000, another one where he was in a car accident that claimed his life, and another one where he was laid-in-state during his funeral in July 2002, the last picture was one of his grave’s headstone which also showed his full name with birth and death dates.
Refusing to believe the story, some people tried to contact Tony by calling his phone and even going to his office, but neither worked as he reportedly never arrived the office on that day he left for work. Grace who has become a basket case, has been taken to a local prayer house for ‘spiritual treatment’, while the neighbours have taken over the caring of her children. Na wa oh! This one pass film trick oo!
Seann Walsh and Katya Jones - will they stay or should they go?
It started with a kiss... Strictly contestant star Seann Walsh and dance partner Katya Jones after being caught kissing in public.
Walsh,
who had a long-term girlfriend, Rebecca Humphries, and Jones, married
to Strictly professional Neil Jones, both tweeted an apology of "inappropriate and hurtful behaviour" during their relationship.
Walsh has yet to comment but what does this mean for such a big TV show?
Entertainment
reporter Caroline Frost told BBC Radio 5 Live: "I think the Strictly
producers can't really lose here, it's a huge story.
"If they
[Walsh and Jones] don't go by lunchtime, every viewer in the country,
even the ones who weren't tuning in for the first three weeks of the
programme, will be tuning in to see how this plays out.
"Even if they were to stay until the weekend I wouldn't expect them to go through."
Humphries has been seen cheering Walsh on during the live shows She said the hugely successful BBC One show was in uncharted territory.
'Disaster for Seann'
"For
years, one of the great ingredients the show has traded on is the
so-called curse [relationship break-ups during the series] - Strictly
has never had to say too much on this [because] it's gone on behind the
scenes. This is the first one so blatantly played out on the front of
the newspapers.
"But when there are, from Rebecca's account,
[allegations of] a background of... bad treatment, I think a line has
been crossed."
The BBC has asked Walsh and Strictly for a comment on the allegations but have had no response so far.
he International Monetary Fund has
warned a trade war between the US and China risks making the world a
"poorer and more dangerous place" in its latest assessment of the global
economy.
The IMF has lowered its forecast for global growth this year and next.
It said that a full-blown trade war between the US and China would put a significant dent in economic recovery.
Its chief economist said further trade barriers would hit households, businesses and the wider economy.
"Trade
policy reflects politics and politics remain unsettled in several
countries, posing further risks," said Maurice Obstfeld.
Most recently, China announced new trade tariffs on $60bn of US
goods, including products such as liquefied natural gas, produced in
states loyal to the US President Donald Trump
weet, Mr Trump warned Beijing against seeking to influence the forthcoming US midterm elections.
"There
will be great and fast economic retaliation against China if our
farmers, ranchers and/or industrial workers are targeted!" he said.
US tariffs on $200bn of Chinese imports came into effect last month.
What are the risks to global growth?
Global economic growth is now expected to reach 3.7% in 2018 and 2019, down from the IMF's previous prediction of 3.9% in July.
It said that risks to the short-term outlook had "shifted to the downside".
Downgrades
to global growth also reflected predictions of a slower expansion in
the eurozone as well as turbulence in a number of emerging market
economies.
Crisis-hit Venezuela is expected to enter its sixth
year of recession in 2019, with inflation predicted to hit ten million
per cent next year.
Argentina, which recently agreed an IMF bailout, is also predicted to see its economy shrink in 2018 and 2019.
How bad could the trade war get?
The
US and China's escalation of trade tariffs is expected to hit growth in
both countries in 2019, when the boost from President Trump's sweeping
tax cuts will also start to wane.
Mr Obstfeld said the world
would become a "poorer and more dangerous place" unless world leaders
worked together to raise living standards, improve education and reduce
inequality. in a .
