Dinner Reception: FairWin Group Did Not Receive N18million From Anybody

There is no gainsay  that the dinner reception organized in honour of Kogi State Governor, His Execellency, Alhaji Yahaya Bello by the FairWin Group was a huge success and exceptional despite the usual and unprecented crowd whereever Yahaya Bello goes as the generational change agent. Our thanks go to all the supporters of the event.

However, some ugly rumours and reckless insinuations made by some ill-informed individuals have come to the notice of Fairwin management. It has become expedient to protect the image and virtue of Fairwin by laying bare the truth about the grand dinner. 

It was rumored that an individual gave N18million as a financial support to organize the dinner The said allegation is serially  and wholly denied accordingly.

The organizers of the dinner never received N18 million from the said donor or any other person. This can be proved by the financial report comprises the record of the voluntary donations and expenditures as submitted by the Finance and Budget Committee (copy attached). The record of the expenditures and balance of the event are properly kept and always available for those who are interested to know. There is no clandestine or under hand dealing in respect to our stewardship.

FairWin is a group of respected personalities of various disciplines and promising youths whose activities and prospects are patriotically nationalistic. This is a group that cherishes transparency and accountability. We urge all our supporters and members to ignore the unfortunate insinuations from any quarters.

We will always be grateful to Almighty God for the success so far,  We appreciate our Patron, His Execellency, Alhaji Yahaya Bello for his unwavering recognition, we commend our amiable Chairman Alh. Abubakar Ohere for his examplary leadership and our Matron Hajiya Maryam Ibrahim for her moral supports, to the FairWin Founder Prince Abdulkareem Onyekehi for his great idea that gave birth to FairWin and kudos to the  entire FairWin management and members of FairWin for their commitments and sacrifices in the best interest of Kogi State.

The details of the voluntary donations and expenditures as submitted by the Finance and Budget Committee is hereby attached for your perusal.

Thank you.

The case of Ahmed Awela, Murtala (Eti Bobo) among other Ebira youths

Ismail M. Kabir, Lagos. Between controversial existence and a contentious exit. There are various sides to a story. For an event that happens with few or no significant eye witness, the news come in different versions; some partially correct, others completely cooked up. In some cases, such non-witnessed event pass round as rumour until eventually confirmed. Rumour it was, when a phone call from Okene announced the death of two famous Ebira youths! They were killed by the Police, reported the news.

Not a single person of Ebira origin, within or outside the soil would believe such shocker upon first hearing. Text messages, phone calls and of course physical enquiries lingered, all in an atte

The Obege legend

He was believed to have been born with a leaf in his hand and to the elders of then, that was prognostic of what he would be - a native healer. And had grown up performing wonders. His kinsmen were all hunters, they would deny the boy the opportunity to follow them hunting, purely on age ground - and he was really too young to go hunting in the forest. They would leave him in the house with the women as they set out on their hunting expedition. But they had meet the young Obege in the forest roasting a fair member of the forest’s game, all alone - and unarmed! The elders had to defer to this wonderful boy. Obege as an adult was more than human. His fame had spread all over the land: he was a healer of most seemingly incurable diseases, he was a rain maker, assumed more divin
