Fayose challenges FG to prevent him from voyaging abroad, says; "Governors not Buhari's limbs"

\Ekiti State Governor, Mr Ayodele Fayose has challenged the Federal Government to do the claimed plot of keeping him from going out of the nation , saying; "under the elected arrangement of government, State governors are not extremities of the President and as a main restriction figure in Nigeria, he can't be cowed by President Mohammadu Buhari and his specialists."

The representative, who responded to reports that two governors, one from the Southwest and another from the South have been set on travel limitation on President Buhari's request, in a question and answer session tended to by his Special Assistant on Public Communications and New Media, Lere Olayinka, said; at whatever point he wished to go out Nigeria, he will do as such in the full glare of the general population.

He said; "I am not astounded or baffled by this most recent plot of the Buhari's administration in light of the fact that the President Buhari that we know is a man with no molecule of appreciation for the privileges of Nigerians as revered in the 1999 Constitution of Nigeria, the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the African Charter on Human and Peoples' Rights and this he showed as a military despot and now exhibiting as a fairly chose president."

The senator said he was however astounded that "this hazardous measurement of convincing a sitting representative that appreciates Constitutional Immunity like the President to acquire freedom from the Director General of the Department of State Service (DSS) before going out of Nigeria can ever be mulled over."

He said President Buhari and his operators ought to be aware of the way that under an elected arrangement of government, the states and national government both appreciate some self-governance, with sovereign power formally partitioned between the national government and the States such that every State holds some level of control over its inside undertakings.

Olayinka, who was flanked by the Chief Press Secretary to the Governor, Mr Idowu Adelusi said; "Few days prior, when Governor Ayodele Fayose was dependably educated that President Mohammadu Buhari had coordinated that he ought to be banned from going outside Nigeria, he essentially took the data as minor gossip, inferring that lack of respect for the constitution of Nigeria and Buhari's autocracy would not be reached out to the most strange level of keeping a representative chose generally as the president from going out of the nation.

"The reasoning of Governor Fayose was that despite the fact that the Buhari's administration was able to do notwithstanding endeavoring to keep those restricted to the President from breathing the air, it should at present be sufficiently rational to be aware of the outcomes of putting any Nigerian under travel boycott without a request of the court, not to discuss a sitting senator that appreciates protected invulnerability like the President. "Nonetheless, when we read the story titled; "2 govs under watch, face travel boycott" distributed on Sunday by two noteworthy national dailies, we have no alternative than to at the end of the day alarm people in general on President Buhari's new oppressive plot to encroach on the established privileges of Governor Fayose due to his basic position on the President's tyrannical inclinations.

"The inquiry is; if Governor Fayose has turned into a danger to the security of Nigeria since he scrutinizes President Buhari and says reality in regards to his mis-administration of the nation, it is safe to say that this is not an affirmation that the President loathes disagreeing sees? "Area 35 (1) of the 1999 Constitution (as corrected) gives that; "Each individual might be qualified for his own freedom and no individual should be denied of such freedom," while Section 41 (1) gives that "Each subject of Nigeria is qualified for move openly all through Nigeria and to live in any part thereof, and no native of Nigeria should be ousted from Nigeria or rejected passage thereto or exit in this manner." "Article 13 (1) of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights to which Nigeria is a signatory gives that 'Everybody has the privilege to opportunity of development and living arrangement inside the fringe of every State' while Article 13 (2) gives that 'Everybody has the privilege to leave any nation, including his own, and come back to his nation,' same Article 12 (2) of the African Charter on Human and Peoples' Rights. "President Buhari and his operators ought to likewise be aware of the way that under an elected arrangement of government, the states and national government both appreciate some self-rule, with sovereign power formally isolated between the national government and the States such that every State holds some level of control over its interior undertakings. "Along these lines, the President of Nigeria can't lord himself over any State senator and President Buhari and his operators ought to acknowledge this fundamental reality and quit acting as though they possess Nigeria in totality. "President Buhari and his operators, particularly his brother; Alhaji Lawal Daura of the DSS need to cleanse themselves of this blood of tyranny running in their veins and be guided by the Constitution of Nigeria. "Indeed, even standard Nigerians don't require leeway from the DSS or any security organization to go outside Nigeria unless travel limitation is submitted by a request of the court, not to discuss State Governors that appreciate safety simply like the President and are not under the control of the President. "The president and his operators ought to realize this is not 1984 when General Buhari, as a military tyrant kept late Chief Obafemi Awolowo from going outside Nigeria for therapeutic treatment, in this manner prompting his (Awolowo) inauspicious passing in 1987! "They ought to likewise be reminded that the same way Buhari mortified the late Ooni of Ife, Oba Okunade Sijuwade; late Emir of Kano Alhaji Ado Bayero and late Obi of Onitsha, Ofala Akulalia Alphonsus Ogugua in 1984 by grabbing their international IDs and limiting them to their royal residences since they made a trip to Israel for business, he can't confine State governors from going outside Nigeria under whatever pretense. "I along these lines wish to state in the interest of Governor Ayodele Fayose that as a resistance figure, he can't be cowed by this triviality from the administration. Representative Fayose, by this question and answer session is brave President Buhari and his hostile to equitable operators to complete this abhorrent and despicable plot and let all of us perceive how far it will take them.

"At whatever time Governor Fayose wishes to go out of Nigeria, he will do as such in the full glare of general society and we anticipate how he will be kept from practicing his rights as cherished in the 1999 Constitution (as revised) and also the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the African Charter on Human and Peoples' Rights. "We additionally wish to illuminate the President and his DSS men that as they were disrespected when they attacked Ekiti State House of Assembly, capturing individuals from the House unpredictably, they will be put to disgrace this time as well.

"Likewise, the National Assembly is being alarmed of this new risk to the Constitution of Nigeria by the individuals who pledged to secure it. Individuals from the National Assembly ought to at this point start to envision what will be their destiny if endeavor is presently being made to place travel limitation on State Governors.

"It is our considered perspective that President Buhari ought to rather worry about the developing shakiness in the nation and charge the security offices, particularly the DSS to perform their capacities as cherished in the constitution as opposed to pursuing trivial issues.

"The President ought to center his consideration on the economy of Nigeria that is just about crumpling and quit utilizing his position to abuse different Nigerians. He ought to realize that Nigerians are just intrigued by having sustenance on their tables, not the quantity of individuals their President dogs into confinement or mistreat with his forces."

Ronaldo's significance is unchallenged yet he needs a vocation extremely important occasion

"I don't doubt that I will go down in footballing history," Cristiano Ronaldo said earlier this month. "Whether people like it or not, the numbers speak for themselves."

It's tough to argue with that, or to deny his outstanding goal return. But legendary footballers are generally not remembered by numbers. Instead, they're remembered by individual moments.

When Johan Cruyff passed away earlier this year, obituaries inevitably focused upon his footballing vision and his ability to inspire revolutionary teams as both a player and coach.

Few mentioned his six consecutive 20-goal league campaigns with Ajax between 1966-72, which was an outstanding achievement in that era, especially considering Cruyff was far more than a goalscorer.

Far more important than those numbers was that one single moment that summarised his brilliance. The Cruyff turn was his wonderful, improvised piece of skill to escape the attention of Swedish defender Jan Olsson. It was a bitesize, easily digestible, memorable moment that explains Cruyff's genius succinctly. Every legendary footballer needs a defining moment.

Ronaldo is still searching for his.

Ferenc Puskas' drag back and finish against England in Hungary's famous 6-3 win in 1953 is a perfect example of a defining moment, as is Pele's strike in the 1958 World Cup final against Sweden, when he lofted the ball over a defender's head before volleying home. Diego Maradona had his mazy dribble through the England defence in 1986.

Of modern players, Zinedine Zidane's incredible volley in the 2002 European Cup final is a perfect example of a defining moment, which is not to even mention his three World Cup final goals.

Meanwhile, Lionel Messi boasts his slalom through the Real Madrid defence in 2011 and his dink over Bayern Munich's Manuel Neuer last year. There are also his two crucial Champions League final goals in 2009 and 2011, both against Manchester United.

Ronaldo has scored goal after goal for both Manchester United and Real Madrid and, like Messi, has also managed two Champions League final goals.

Neither, though, was decisive: His header in the 2008 final was cancelled out by Frank Lampard's equaliser for Chelsea and Ronaldo later missed a penalty in the shootout. Six years later, he scored Real Madrid's last goal from the penalty spot in a 4-1 victory. It was a bonus, rather than a game-changing, trophy-winning moment.

There have certainly been great highlights in Ronaldo's career. His towering header in the 2011 Copa del Rey final stands out, as does his clever finish to effectively win La Liga at the Camp Nou a year later.

Internationally, his hat trick against Sweden in the playoff for the 2014 World Cup was remarkable. But none of these examples are player- and era-defining tales; we won't be telling our grandchildren about them years to come. 364 goals in 347 Real Madrid games is the go-to evidence for Ronaldo's brilliance but it's hardly a romantic appraisal of his career.

In terms of his legacy, a single stunning goal against Atletico Madrid in this weekend's Champions League final could be worth 50 league goals next season. Now 31, and probably on the way down physically, even if he's likely to compete at the top level for many years to come, he needs that big moment soon.

Ronaldo's game has changed significantly during his top-flight career. In his first season with Manchester United he was essentially a flashy, showboating winger with extremely inconsistent end product. He became one of the world's best because his mentality changed entirely; he became more direct, more efficient and more ruthless.

His 2007-08 campaign at United was perhaps his peak, not in terms of his goalscoring ability as he netted 42 times, but for being the perfect blend between those younger, carefree days and the latter, statistic-heavy period. He was a great goalscorer and a scorer of great goals.

These days, Ronaldo is almost solely a scorer, with the vast majority of his goals struck from close-range, inside-left positions. His rate has barely dipped -- we've might take the goal-a-game record of him and Messi for granted but it shows incredible consistency over a sustained period -- but the quality of goal has.

That is primarily because Ronaldo simply isn't doing the things that take the breath away as often. Outstanding individual goals are scored, in general, from a long-range shot or following a dribble, so it's worth considering how Ronaldo's numbers have declined in this respect.

From 2009-10, his first season in La Liga, to 2015-16, the number of shots Ronaldo has taken from outside the box have more than halved.

It's a similar story when assessing how often he dribbles past opponents: This season he has done that almost 50 percent less than in his first Liga campaign.

These statistics suggest that, in terms of finding a single moment, it's becoming less likely that Ronaldo will provide something to rival the Cryuff turn, the Maradona run or the Zidane volley. He's simply spending more time inside the penalty box, focusing upon scoring simple goals.

Therefore his moment, should it arrive, will probably not be a single strike but, instead, a decisive individual performance; he's more likely to score a hat trick of close-range goals than produce something unquestionably extravagant. It is more likely to be "the Ronaldo final" than "the Ronaldo run."

He's now 31 and so it's inevitable to wonder what his legacy will be. Perhaps, as he points out, it will be that incredible goalscoring record, which befits an era when football is based around numbers more than ever and when individual talent takes precedent over team cohesion.

One league title and one Champions League in seven seasons with Real Madrid is something of a disappointment for him in terms of trophies won but a genuinely matchwinning performance in Saturday's European Cup final might be Ronaldo's career peak.

A brilliant counter-attacking goal, an acrobatic finish, a spectacular free kick -- it doesn't really matter. One of football's greatest should be remembered by more than mere numbers and it's time for Ronaldo's golden moment.

Five Manchester Joined fixes that Jose Mourinho must make in the event that he arrives

With Jose Mourinho's long-rumoured move to Manchester United close to completion, there are things that he must address immediately when he arrives. Here are five:


5. Keeping key men

It has often been worth wondering this season about what would have happened to United had they not kept hold of goalkeeper David De Gea after the bizarre falling through of his move to Real Madrid. The fact that they did keep him means that they have had some joy in the FA Cup and stayed in contention for a top-four place until the closing weekend of the season. De Gea and other star performers from this season need to stay again, and the spirit has to be kept high in training.

4. Nurturing youth

One of the legacies which Van Gaal has left at United is giving valuable experience to young players, most notably Marcus Rashford, and that has laid down the foundations for what should be promising careers. It is imperative that Mourinho continues the good work. United have a tradition in this area, which needs to be revived again. The Portuguese manager needs to avoid being tarred with his reputation from his Chelsea days, when there was frustration over his failure to bring through youth players.


3. Away day blues

Old Trafford has remained an awkward venue for teams to visit this season, highlighted by the club's late winning run on home soil this season. But it is a stark contrast to what they have done on the road. United failed to win back-to-back away league games all season, and there were defeats against lowly sides, which ultimately cost them in the top-four race. Mourinho's ability to instill shape, discipline and resilience when sides attack his teams will be beneficial in this regard.

2. Defensive height

United's defensive solidity has held the season together at times, with Chris Smalling and Daley Blind having formed a usually impressive partnership in central defence, but there are problems in need of remedy. The recent habit of conceding set-piece goals has exemplified that, with a lack of height and positional awareness being major issues; the likes of Blind and Marcos Rojo have been caught out at costly moments. The signing of Raphael Varane, a Mourinho protege at Madrid, would help in that regard.

1. Attacking firepower

The obvious area of weakness for United this season has been a lack of goals under Louis van Gaal, caused by their pedestrian style of possession football. It has led to a paltry tally of 49 goals from 38 league matches. Mourinho needs to shed his reputation for functionality and give a reminder of the goal-scoring feats of his more eye-catching teams at Chelsea (in the early days) and Real Madrid. The arrival of one of his allies from his Inter Milan stint, Zlatan Ibrahimovic, could be a step in the right direction.

May 29: To sack those minister is a must, says Buhari

Against the background of the quibbling among clergymen of the President Muhammadu Buhari organization close by execution assessment reports secretly completed by a select advisory group, the president is purportedly under weight to "rearrange his bureau" even as he was said to have gathered together meetings on the matter.

As per administration sources who opened up to Nigerian pilot a weekend ago, Buhari is said to have been miffed by reports of fight among his representatives, non-execution of a significant number of them and assertions of degenerate practices against some of his helpers and bureau individuals.

"He is truly tormented that persons suggested by his gathering and companions of the legislature are not performing. They are self-serving and some of them have debasement assertions staying nearby their necks that the entire situation has turned into a humiliation to the president and his organization," said a top administration official weekend.

The official who hails from one of the northern states, included that however Buhari dealt with the all around advertised depiction of England's Leader, David Cameron of Nigeria as "fabulously degenerate," it was an enormous shame that was much the same as a slap on the face.

"Yes, the president dealt with the shame with strategic composure. In any case, it didn't imply that it was not a shame to him, his administration and the nation. As a statesman who knows his onions he dealt with the aftermaths exceptionally well. Be that as it may, it simply won't end there. He considered it to be a test to clean the messy stable. The needful must be done," the source further told Nigerian Pilot.

Quarreling pastors

It was accumulated that some pastors straightforwardly can't help contradicting the organization's position on basic national issues. Notice was made of comments by a few nominees on strategy issues which are not in pair with the arrangement heading of government. In such cases, the administration had been made to "go the additional mile to issue explanations to right such blundering, consequently throwing our trust in questions in the brain of the Nigerian open. Likewise, a large number of them work experiencing some miscommunication with ordered heading as though they were not all around informed on their timetables before they expected obligation," Nigerian Pilot was told.

"President Buhari can't look as his bureau, the administration and his gathering, intentionally and unwittingly screw up APC's prosperity at surveys. He needs to stop the intensity and threats among his representatives," the source said.

Just as of late, however for the convenient intercession of their separate associates, a priest and the clergyman of state apparently practically drew in each other in fisticuffs over assertions of defiance by the last for the previous.

Non-performing associates

It was learnt that taking after the brief every deputy got on presumption of office, Buhari anticipated that them would obediently convey on their doled out timetables. In any case, he is said to be concerned that given the heaps of objections from the Nigerian open and the global group, not a couple of nominees are coming up short on this note.

"They need activity and are continually sitting tight for the president to direct them before they are jarred to act. There is the conviction that there is an excessive amount of eye administration around here. The president does not have any desire to see their countenances as regularly as they wish. All he needs is for them to work and convey. Some of them even claim they are frightened not to commit errors that would insult the president. However, they have not been seen to attempt to perform in the primary case," another source in a basic service uncovered.

Degenerate helpers

With claims of debasement hanging over the leaders of a few representatives of the president nearby petitions and at times, authoritatively affirmed fake acts, Buhari is said to be settled on assuaging influenced persons of their arrangement if his hostile to defilement war should at present be considered important.

This classification as per Nigerian Pilot's discoveries cuts crosswise over bureau individuals and non-bureau associates of the president.

Aside from budgetary debasement, it further learnt that deputies who politicize for all intents and purposes each strategy and motivation of the organization might be ordered as falling flat in the prior admiration.

The previous evening, it was accumulated that ahead the principal year commemoration of the organization and theory of an approaching bureau upgrade, most deputies of the president are unsteady as they don't have anything on the score card to appear as their unassuming accomplishments in advancement of the organization's plan.

"Some of them hold the last marking of the 2016 spending plan as reason for non-execution. That was normal. However, is that a valid reason when they have not possessed the capacity to streamline operations in their individual services and the parastatals under them?" one presidential helper inquired.
