2015: Chief Chris Ijibike Ready ForThe Great Task Ahead

I never thought i would ever have to write a full article about a Nigerian politician. A very positive review for that matter. This was not for lack of optimism on my part, but for the lack of vision and purpose on their part.

The reality is that a good Nigerian politician is difficult to come by. The vast majority of the politicians elected into government are self-serving, corrupt and worse of all visionless. They are corrupt nationally, regionally and locally.
They are corrupt in the South and in the North, in the East and in the West.

After the era of visionary and selfless leaders like Awolowo, Azikiwe and Ahmadu Bello, we are lumbered with the misfortune of having so-called usurpers who think they are doing us a favour by carrying out what they are elected to do.

Chief Chris Ijibike an aspirant for the post of local government chairman under APGA is a departure from this filth. He is a breath of fresh air compared to many people who has held any executive position in Nigeria. He is so different that you can hardly believe he is one of us. He is genuinely and determinedly interested in changing the lives of his constituents for good.

His singular purpose in life is to bring succor to the down trodden, provide better life and a lasting legacy of superlative welfare and infrastructural facilities for his people by delivering the dividends of his democratic mandate and positively touch the lives of as many as he can with the warmth and kindness of someone who truly cares.

This is not to say he is perfect because no man is, but i can boldly say Chief Chris Ijibike is ready to take Ukwuani Local government, Delta state and Nigeria as a whole to the next level.

How one half of the singing Oshadipe twins died mysteriously

October 3, 2014 was a very sad day for us, the entertainment industry and the Oshadipe family. We were shocked when news hit town that one half of the singing Oshadipe twins, Taiwo, gave up the ghost. But since her sudden death, there have been a controversy as to how she died.

But speaking with The Nation, manager of the Oshadipes, Olu Akinsanya, explained that Taiwo may have died from complications arising from chest-related pains.

In his words, “The illness wasn’t serious. She felt better when she started taking the drugs. But surprisingly, she suffered a relapse this week. On Wednesday, she called her doctor who treated her at LASUTH and was told to come over to his private hospital, as hewouldn’t be around at LASUTH until Friday.

“She went to the hospital, where the doctor carried out some medical checks on her and gave her some drugs"  "He also gave her an appointment for Friday. But unfortunately, in the early hours of the day, she started complaining of pains. This time, it was very severe; so, her twin sister, Kehinde, decided to rush her to LASUTH. However, upon reaching the hospital, she was confirmed dead. So, by 8.00a.m., Kehinde called me and I had to rush to LASUTH to see her for myself.

“It is still very shocking to me. I saw her on Wednesday and we talked and joked. We even talked about my forthcoming wedding. She promised to play at my wedding, so she asked me not to invite any other musician.

“The autopsy report will be out soon. But I know she had recovered from the illness. The last thing she complained about was the chest pain and that was what led to her death two days after.”
