Imo public servants receive free emergency first aid training

 



In view of the widespread insecurity in the country and daily emergencies that could arise anywhere including offices, the Nigerian Red Cross Society in collaboration with the Office of the Head of Service, Imo State recently trained about thirty (30) selected public servants on emergency response.


Speaking at the opening ceremony of the 2-day Free Emergency First Aid Training, the State Chairman, Nigerian Red Cross Society, Prince Chima Keke said the programme was part of efforts by the Nigerian Red Cross to impact basic first aid skills to public servants, who would in turn offer humanitarian services in times of emergencies especially in the offices and wherever they find themselves.


Prince Keke, disclosed that Imo State branch of Red Cross Society has over 2,500 volunteers covering all the 27 Local Government Areas of the State on humanitarian and emergency activities; while also managing the the Owerri Motherless Babies Home, which is the oldest orphanage in the State. 


He however stressed the the need for increased partnership and support for humanitarian services within the State , pointing out that escalating crisis in the region require everyone to at least know what to do, and at the appropriate time if emergency situation occurs.  He further disclosed that the organization has packages that offer further training in Emergency First Aid and urged participants to put the knowledge acquired to effective use.



In his goodwill message, the Head of Service Imo State, Dr. Chibuzo Iwuagwu commended the Nigerian Red Cross Society for their continued commitment to rendering humanitarian services in times of emergencies in the State.


He noted that the trainees would be veritable tools for saving lives in emergency situations and urged them to make the best use of the opportunity offered them by the Nigerian Red Cross Society.


The training module covered the management of a wide range of health emergency situations including, stroke, fainting, epilepsy, chocking, poisoning, anaphilaxis, bleeding, burns, among others.


The lecture and demonstration session was conducted by the Branch Training Officer, Mr. Uzoma Kizito, who expressed satisfaction at the zeal exhibited by the participants during the training.


IPOB declares war on Abia cultists

 



Cult groups operating in Aba and cities near the commercial nerve of Abia State have started leaving in droves after the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) declared war on them.


Our correspondent gathered for some years, members of a cult group; “Aro Cult”, a dominant group in Aba have subjected residents of the city, especially those living around Over-Rail, Uratta, Ndiegoro, Obohia, Osisioma and Ogbor-Hill axes of Aba to severe pains.



Sources said that since the activities of the cultists became pronounced, owners of businesses that thrive mainly in the evening like beer parlors, restaurants, barbing saloons and eateries operate with fear.


The faint hearted amongst them only open for business in the day time and close shop as early as 5pm.



Those who operate till night, including Mr. Raphael Ogbonna, said he cannot count how many times his shop has been invaded and money carted away.


A resident of Frank Road, off Omuma Road, Over-Rail Aba, who does not want his name mentioned, for security reasons said: “These cultists come as early as 6:30-7:00 pm to rob people in their shops, beat them mercilessly, snatch phones, molest girls and do all manner of evil without anyone standing up to them.


“They don’t even cover their faces. My most disturbing worry is that some people on the streets know these people but are afraid to do something because of the way things are here. Our roads are so bad that police cannot access this place with their vehicles.”


But the table seems to have been turned on the cultists over the past one week with many residents reporting over ten of the known dreaded cultists have been killed by an unknown group of non-state actors with their bodies dumped and later evacuated.


It was gathered the most affected areas in the cult activities around Over-Rail are: Ama-Ogbonna, Osusu Road, Omuma Road, Owerri Road, Erondu Road, Ogbonnaya Road, Onitsha Road, Cemetery Road, Onuoha Road, St Philip’s Road, Ikpeamaeze Street, Powerline, NEPA Line, Chief Nwaguru Street, Anglican Street and Charity Street.


Others include: Nnadede Street, Bright Street, Aguata Street, Umeasiegbu Street, Agommuo Street, Oguikpe Street, Urakpa Street, St Eugene Road, Adindu Road, Holy Rosary Street, Sacred Heart Road, Akalanna Road, Azigbo Street, Ibenji Street, Sunday Street, Besi Street, Nise Street, Evurunaobi Street, Apostolic Road and Nwangwa Street.



“What’s happening is not a cult war. This area is dominated by the members of the Aro Cult. They’re not at war with any other group but what we’re seeing is a killing that looks like what Bakassi did here between 1999-and 2003.


“The people killing those boys are sending a direct message because their bodies are dumped where the owners will see them and the killings are not done with the fight. None of those killed so far was a stranger to the people of the area. They are known.


“They are well known notorious boys. People are afraid because the killing is definitely not by the police or the army. Many are calling the killers unknown gunmen but I can’t place my hands on their identity,” a resident who craved anonymity told our reporter.


A police source at Aba Area Command Headquarters said that the incident is not hidden.


He confirmed the Command is aware but has not issued any statement on the matter.


The Abia State Police Command Public Relations Officer (PPRO) Mr Geoffrey Ogbonna could not be reached for comments.


When contacted, IPOB spokesman, Emma Powerful, said: “Yes, we decided to remove these groups of cultists and hoodlums destroying IPOB reputations because people of Biafra are calling them IPOB and ESN members but they are not and IPOB want to redeem our respect Biafrans gave to us.


“IPOB is a decent organisation championing the liberation of our great nation Biafra and we don’t want anybody to enforce fictitious activities and calling IPOB names, Again we don’t want our people to be humiliated again by these Vampires created and sponsored by unfortunate politicians in our land.


“Our mandate is to restore Biafra freedom and independence peacefully, not to humiliate our people at all.


“If we still keep quiet watching them continue destroying peaceful movements seeking freedom, time will come. Nobody will believe IPOB and ESN members.


“Anyone involved in destroying our territory will regret their evil actions.”

Popular prophet marries four women, blasts critics of polygamy

 



                     Zagabe Chiluza



By Onu Stephen

A famous prophet, Zagabe Chiluza, married four women on the same day in eastern Congo, Bukur, over the weekend.


Mr Chiluza is the head pastor of the popular Eglise Primitive du Seigneur, Yeshua Hamashia Church, in Bukur, eastern Congo.


Afrimax English shared details of the unusual wedding on YouTube.


However, this is his second marriage, as he reportedly married the first wife a few years ago.


Biblical backups


The man of God claimed that he adopted the idea of polygamy from the Bible, citing Jacob, who had four wives, as an example.


He quoted biblical scriptures that show that marrying more than one wife was not a sin, and God always respected those who married more than one wife.


He said: “Show me where it is written that God said a man should marry only one wife? ”


“I am brother Zagabe Chiluza, and I have one wife plus the four I am about to marry. They would have to join the senior wife. Today we will have to celebrate. I will marry more women, and the idea originated from the bible.”



The acclaimed servant of God said he got saved and believed Jesus as his saviour in 1986 while he was in school.


Mr Chiluza, who says he is an ardent Bible student, chose to deviate from other denominations on the idea of polygamy.



He said: “Jacob married one wife and was awarded another, didn’t he? After that, he married more wives. Jacob had many wives, Leah and Rachel, then Bilhah and Zilpa, four wives for one man,” he said.


He further added that there are a lot of biblical examples of polygamy like “Saul, David and others, didn’t God not interact with them? I am wondering, how can one refuse to marry more than one wife?” he asked.


Another pastor in the church, Brother Kalebbe, said God introduced polygamy in the old testament and the entire scriptures support it.


Giving scriptural backup to his claims, he said: “You can read Matthew 25:1, it reads that, ‘at that time the Kingdom of God would be like ten virgins, who took their lamps and went out to meet the bridegroom’, and we understand that all the brides would be his wives.”


Unusual wedding


Friends, family, and congregation members attended the prophet’s unusual wedding.


Many people gathered to celebrate the anointed man of God on his wedding day.


“I am glad to have five wives around me. If you want to marry many wives like Abraham, say, Amen. As you rejoice with us, Abraham will see you though he is seated in heaven. May God bless you,’’ the popular cleric told the excited guests at the wedding.


               Zagabe Chiluza and his wives


The guests, in turn, danced along with the prophet and his four wives, praising God.


The church blessed them and officially pronounced them husband and wife.


In one of his numerous sermons, Mr Chiluza says men should not marry girls who are virgins.


One of his members, Isidore Chibagila, said the church is governed according to prophecy and holy scriptures.


The single sister, who supports polygamy, also shares her thoughts on the church’s doctrine, and she says: “God himself supports polygamy as Apostle Paul said, it is said that there will only be virgins in heaven.”


Other controversial doctrines


Mr Chiluza said his church serves the people the truth, and they have the option of practising it.



According to him, one of his unconventional teachings is that Cain is not the son of Adam.


The pastor claimed it’s a long biblical story in the book of Genesis and said that Cain was the son of the serpent.


He said those who do not believe in the scriptures are the sons of the serpent, like Cain. “Even Jesus, referring to Cain as the son of the serpent, said, ‘Sons of vampires, how would you escape the judgement,” he said.

Building collapse: Govt seals property, warns developers against use of substandard materials

                 Engineer Chukwu


Following the reported collapse of an ongoing  two-storey building at Area 5  Extension Umuguma in Owerri West LGA, Imo State Capital on Wednesday, Imo State Government through Owerri Capital Development Authority,(OCDA) has sealed up the property.


Speaking at site of the collapsed building,the OCDA General Manager Engr. Francis Chukwu confirmed that nine victims who were trapped in the collapsed building were rescued successfully.


He however expressed displeasure over the building collapse, pointing out that indepth investigation will be carried out to ascertain the immediate and remote causes of the mishap.


Engineer Chukwu directed the owner and contractor handling the building, who were not present during the inspection visit, to report to the Agency with immediate effect, the OCDA helmsman warned developers against the use of substandard materials in building activities.


Engr. Chukwu went further to inspect other buildings around the area and directed the owners to report to the Agency for recertification pointing out that the vibration of the collapsed Building can pose some effects on the existing buildings hence the urgent need for the buildings to be recertified.


Recounting his ordeal, one of the survivors, Mr. Eke Martins narrated how he and his family escaped from the building collapse, stating that the unfortunate incident happened  in the early morning hours.

He said he managed to escape with his family members numbering eight, though their last child  sustained  injuries and was rushed to a nearby hospital for treatment.


    

IMO: NZE DR. C.C OSUALA ENERGIZING GOVERNOR UZODIMMA'S SHARED PROSPERITY AGENDA WITH PROPER BUDGETING AND PLANNING





 By Ogu Bundu Nwadike, M.A



One of the most important political appointments made by the Executive Governor of Imo State, Distinguished Senator Hope Uzodimma in 2020, was that of Rt. Hon. Chief Nze Dr. C.C Osuala, the incumbent Honourable Commissioner for Budget, Economic Planning and Statistics, Imo State.


With him and few other intellectuals, technocrats and professionals, Governor Uzodimma has a very sound economic team, that has been providing due support for the economic development of the State.


Rt. Hon. Dr. C.C Osuala, who represented Nkwerre/Isu/Nwangele/Njaba Federal Constituency at the House of Representatives at 4th House in 1999-2003 political period, was appointed Commissioner by Governor Uzodimma in 2020 shortly after the governor assumed office. 


When the governor dissolved his cabinet in 2021, he retained Nze Dr. C.C Osuala as his Commissioner for Budget, Economic Planning and Statistics till date. That must be for his intimidating academic qualifications and proven administration service delivery competencies in various fields, especially in budgeting and planning.


Rt. Hon. Dr. C.C Osuala, (Akajiala Nze Anwuanwu) holds three doctorate degrees with honours in General Engineering, Engineering Sciences, and in Management, all from ivy universities in the United States of America. He also holds a Baccalaureate degree with honours in Law from an American university.


The Duru-Omenaiho dynasty, Amaigbo, Nwangele-born politician is a distinguished scholar, whose working career centred aeronautics, aerospace, including NASA Aerospace in the America. He also has work experience in banking and engineering. It was on his return to Nigeria that he was massively voted for and elected into the National Assembly by the wonderful people of Nkwerre/Isu/Nwangele/Njaba Federal Constituency in 1999.


While in America, he was a Lecturer at Oklahoma State University, and  also at Weber State University. Prior to that, he was President, Nigeria Students Union, Ogden, Utah Chapter. Earlier, at St. Augustine's Grammar School (SAGS), Nkwerre, he was the Library Prefect. 


As an international scholar, Dr. C.C Osuala is a prolific writer and author, who has written four books in Engineering, and two books on Mathematics. In 2020, he published "Citizens Budget for Imo State", which is a manual that has been translated into Igbo vernacular. That book was instrumental to the admission of Imo State into "World Bank Budgetary Transparency", which was a first of its kind since the creation of the State in 1976.


The "World Bank Budgetary Transparency", programme known as "State Fiscal Transparency Accountability and Sustainability (SFTAS) earns the Government of Imo State grants running into $7 million, which contributes significantly to the Internally Generated Revenue (IGR) base of the State.


In an interview, the Honourable Commissioner in his analysis of the 2022 budget said: 


"The N381 billion 2022 budget estimate is ambitious but not too ambitious, considering the challenges we are faced with. Too ambitious implies negative connotations. The budget is ambitious based on tenable economic yardstick and barometer. The budget is based on realistic and realizable economic assumptions predicated on empirical data, proper statistical analysis of economic activities within Imo State, crude oil revenue share due to the State, economies of scale of the State, Gross Domestic Product (GDP) of the State, inflationary factors, Monetary policy of the Central Bank of Nigeria, Medium Term Expenditure Framework (MTEF), and measurable World Bank's State Fiscal Transparency Accountability and Sustainability (SFTAS), Program Delivery Linked Indicators and Delivery Linked Results, Donor agencies factor, to mention but few indices used in arriving at this conservative N381 billion budget estimate. It is the audacity of Hope."


To assure Ndimo of the efficacy of the 2022 budget, Rt. Hon. Nze Dr. C.C Osuala said:


"My fellow citizens of Imo State, the 2022 Budget holds a great promise for us all. It is a budget of shared prosperity and shared responsibility. We must be vigilant against those, whose inordinate political ambitions are rooted in selfishness, egocentricity, which propels insecurity. We must not allow them to deprive us of reaping the good fruits from the Peoples Budget. It is time we (the youths and the elderly) wizened up and shun evil and show love to the Heartland of Nigeria. The State belongs to us all. We must seize this moment and make it best for us, collectively. 


"This is the first administration in the annals of Imo State that has produced a State Budget through the consensus of the citizens. We sourced inputs from the: Open Government Partnership in all 654 autonomous communities in the 27 Local Government Areas, with leaders, House Assembly members, IMC Chairmen, Councillors, physically challenged citizens, Civil Society Organizations, Faith Based Organizations, women and youths, in attendance in various Town Hall meetings, demanding and stating their needs in a rational and methodological manner through the Charter of Needs, in acquiescence with the World Bank requirements. These efforts and more culm in the People’s Budget.


"We, as the citizens of Imo State, must reap the benefits of our collective efforts, embedded in the People's Budget. My fellow citizens, in the final analysis, the People’s Budget 2022 is predicated into doctrine of "the budget of the people, by the people, for the people". Peace and progress."


Those are far-reaching assurances, inspirational and motivational thoughts and thinking from the man whose hindsight, foresight and insight fashioned the most functional budget in Imo State in the past two decades or even more, with an outlay of 72% capital expenditure and 28% recurrent expenditure. That must unarguably account for the ongoing explosion of programmes and projects across Imo State by Governor Uzodimma. 


Rt. Hon. Chief Dr. Nze C.C Osuala is adequately endowed with a huge wealth of knowledge, understanding and experience in the academia, in the corporate world and in the world of politics, where he currently plies his public service trade. There's no doubt that he's contributing significantly to the du'y celebrated success of the 3R Shared Prosperity Government of Governor Hope Uzodimma. 


At the National Assembly, he was Chairman of two House Committees, National Economic Development Committee, and Housing Committee. He was also a member House Committee on Health, House Committee on Defence, and House Committee on Works. He was a member NSPRI Board and Chairman, NSPRI Welfare Board.


At that time in the House, he had massive programme and project accomplishments and achievements that will be too copious to be catalogued here in this writeup. 


The most important thing, however, is that Dr. C.C Osuala had served, he is serving, and he will continue to serve Imo State in general, Orlu Zone, Nkwerre-Isu-Nwangele-Njaba Federal Constituency, Nwangele LGA and Amaigbo ancient kingdom in particular. Tomorrow is pregnant! So help him, God! To God be the glory! 



By God's grace, Imo State is being rehabilitated, reconstructed and recovered by Governor Uzodimma!!
