Atiku charges Nigerians on due diligence

Former Vice President and presidential aspirant of the All Progressives Congress, Atiku Abubakar, has said that strict adherence to the procedure of due diligence before entering into contractual agreements is an imperative for the evolution of a progressive.

The APC presidential hopeful in a goodwill message on the occasion of the Eid-el-kabir said the significance of the festival is a celebration of trust between man and God, rooted in the fulfilment of promises.

The statement issued by his media office in Abuja on Friday quoted Atiku as saying that trust is the foundation of the relationship between man and God and the two principal religions in Nigeria Islam and Christianity.

I rejoice with fellow Muslims across the country to celebrate the Eid-el-kabir festival. The significance of the celebration today is not in the blood or the flesh of the rams that are slaughtered, the APC chieftain said, adding the message is for people to be honour bound to respect the terms of the promises made to other entities.

As a society, we must place a premium on trust. Our greatness as a country is attainable only when government honours the promises it makes to the people. A leader who has a track record of reneging on every promise he makes cannot drive the process of change we desperately yearn for.

As a people too, we must be vigilant and thorough about the decisions that we take in conjunction with others. It is our responsibility to ensure that we enter into agreements with people of proven character and credibility. The prevailing mindset of placing trust on people based on primordial sentiments such as ethnic or religious considerations without recourse to due diligence is not healthy for the growth of individuals or nations, Atiku said.

Fayose must be arrested, prosecuted, APC insists

The All Progressives Congress has reiterated its earlier call for the arrest and prosecution of Ekiti Governor-elect Ayodele Fayose for leading a band of thugs to attack Justice Adeyeye on the premises of the State High Court on September 25th, warning that failure to act decisively now would spell danger for Judges and the nations democracy.

In a statement issued in London on Thursday by its National Publicity Secretary, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, the party said the issue of the security of Judges and the unfettered administrative of justice transcends politics, hence no politician, no matter his status, must be allowed to go scot-free after attacking Judges.

It said any delay in taking action will see Fayose assume office, meaning he can no longer be arrested and prosecuted for what is an egregious contempt of court.

APC said the attack on Judges in Ekiti has also reinforced the call in some quarters, on the basis of constitutional provisions, to subject candidates seeking political offices in the country to psychiatric tests, to prevent people with mental imbalance from taking over the affairs of state.

The party said those who are trivializing the issue and trying to play dirty politics with it should take a moment to think of what Fayose will do to the Judges whom he led thugs to beat up, when he assumed office as Governor of the state.

APC also called on the Inspector-General of Police to sanction the policemen who stood idly by as thugs were attacking Judges, lawyers, litigants and others, saying the police must always carry out its constitutional duties no matter which politician is flouting the law.

The party also appealed to the Nigerian Bar Association (NBA) to take the lead in ensuring that those behind the senseless attack on Judges in Ekiti are made to face the full wrath of the law, irrespective of their status in the society.
