Autobiography Of Sen. Uche Ekwunife

Sen. Uche Ekwunife (born 1970) is a Nigerian politician and member of the 8th Nigerian Senate.

Ekwunife was born in 1970 in Nri in Anaocha when her surname was Ogudebe. Her first degree was in Business and accounting which she earned at the University of Calabar.

She then took an MBA at Nnamdi Azikiwe University.

She had a career in banking where she rose to be an area manager. She married a businessperson from her home community. She and Chief Larry Ekwunife have children.

Ekwunife stood for election twice unsuccessfully.  She was later elected as a senator in 2015 for Anambra Central.

There were over 100 senators elected in the 8th National Assembly, but only six of these were women. The others were Rose Okoji Oko, Stella Oduah, Fatimat Raji Rasaki, Oluremi Tinubu and Binta Garba.

Ekwunife had won the 2015 election but only by switching from one of the leading political parties to the other. Because of this her election was challenged and in December 2015 her seat was declared vacant.

Ekwanife was unable to get her former political parties backing for the bi-election for her former seat.

POLITICAL ARENA OF ANAMBRA STATE HEATS UP AGAIN:

Irrespective of the declaration of Gov. Willy Obiano of Anambra State to contest under APGA, he shall still get a tougher competition from APC and PDP.
Anambra people believed that there are still better people out there and i do not wish to mention names for even willy was not the better candidate until he was forced on the people if it was a lie, ask Sen. Uche ekwunuife or Sen. Andy Ubah or Ifeanyi ubah.

Diet for Anambra State Guber Election 2017, A difficult game though from IDF N.G.O National Secretary.

As the Anambra State Governorship election draws closer, many politicians have started to calculate to manipulate their game and how it shall be played.

Though most of the politicians are still lying down clueless on a couch for a fire-brigade approach on how to manipulate the election results with the election umpire.

Most of the of the politicians have started to identify with their political parties,  warming up for primaries, most of which have also registered in their new political party wherein they hope that the ticket is automatic for them.

I am still in the wonder on why most of  them do not have any political party but are ready to run in the election, well may be to them there is still time.

Well, all this made politics a sophisticated place to be but its joyful that the right candidate should emerge at the end of the tussle.

May I sound a warning to some politicians  that  have interest in the forthcoming election in Anambra state to better ignore sycophants who shall be attaching themselves to them and come down to the grassroot and make all their campaign promises to the people who have the capacity to tell them the truth as it were and possibly they may vote for him or her if found capable by them else such entity may experience doom as the people of Anambra are always wiser in their choice of people in power.

I believe that if all these politicians will ignore sycophants as advisers, then they can pull a weight that will transform our dear Anambra State.

Any body that will get the mantle to govern our state should avoid sycophants and rats in his cabinet and also be truthful to the citizens not being a scam government….

SLAP YOUR HUSBAND DAILY By Timothy Motivator Ofoegbu

Married women are the necks that that will help their husbands to carry the homes or they will be pains in their necks. They ought to be the home makers not home wreckers. They suppose to gladden their hearts by their words and actions not to break their hearts and dispatch them to early graves. A good wife must SLAP her husband every day.This is how to do it:
S=SUBMIT TO HIM. Submitting to your husband does not mean you will be a a rag or doormat for him to march on. You are an individual with an identity. It simply means that you’re a godly woman that recognized God given authority. If you can leave your parents and adopt his surname and live with him, then see him as your leader. You may be more educated, wealthier and more religious than him but obey God that asks you to submit to him.
L=LOVE HIS FAMILY MEMBERS. Some In-laws can behave like outlaws but true love conquers all injustice and persecutions. A wife that truly accepts, love and care for the family members of her husband will live long in that home and will always have the respect of her husband. Love them till it hurts.
A=ASSIST HIM. God told Adam that He will give him a HELPER. A helper also means assistant, aide, helpmate, help-meet, deputy, auxiliary, right-hand woman, coworker, workmate, teammate, associate, colleague and partner. Help him emotionally, spiritually and financially. Some women who earn more than their husbands are stingy and selfish. Others refuse to work or do business in order to help the man. Once again, God says to Adam “ I will give you a helper” not an ATM CARD or someone that stays at home all day watching Telemundo, Zeeworld and African magic channels on the television.
P=PAMPER HIM. All men are Mama’s boys. Treat him like your first boyfriend. Pamper him with tender loving care. Talk to him with love and respect. Correct him with affection and never nag or criticize him all the time. Know how and when to prepare his best foods. Make his birthday and the wedding anniversary a celebration of love. Shower him with gifts like underwear, singlet, aftershave creams and perfumes. Never ever slap him but remain pretty and presentable to him as his own PRINCESS. Never forget: ”A wise woman builds her home, but a foolish woman tears it down with her own hands.”- Proverbs 14:1.
MAY GOD BLESS YOUR MARRIAGE.

President Trump Signs Executive Actions On Border Wall, Deports 92 Africans And This Happens Next… (Must See Video)

Donald Trump’s vow to tighten US borders and deport illegal immigrants is already being enforced as 92 immigrants of African origin were sent packing.
The immigrants were deported on Wednesday, January 25 on the same day the US president signed the executive actions on building the wall along the Mexican border.

90 Somalis and two Kenyans were deported and arrived aboard an American Charter Airline, Omni at the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport in Kenya.

The Somalis then proceeded to Mogadishu aboard a Juba Airways flight.

Daily Nation reports that they deportees were accompanied by US security officials.

Zipporah Waweru who is an official of Jomo Kenyatta airport confirmed that there had been a plane carrying Somalis in transit to Mogadishu

She however said she was not sure if they were deportees.

“They have left and to me, they looked happy so I cannot for sure tell you that they were deported or not.”
Trump had vowed to build the wall in order to prevent illegal immigrants from Mexico entering the US accusing them of bringing in crime.

Part of the executive orders he signed also include visa denial for citizens of Syria and six other middle eastern and African countries.

The other countries are: Iraq, Iran, Libya, Somalia, Sudan and Yemen.

According to Reuters, Stephen Legomsky, the chief counsel at US citizenship and immigration services in the last administration, informed that Trump has the legal power to limit refugee admissions and the issuance of visas to specific countries if the administration determined it was in the public’s interest.

The professor at Washington University School of Law in St Louis, said: “From a legal standpoint, it would be exactly within his legal rights.

“But from a policy standpoint, it would be terrible idea because there is such an urgent humanitarian need right now for refugees.”

The Death Of MMM In Nigeria Fully Confirmed As Top Guider Flee To Philippines With His Lovely Wife {Must Read}

Social media is currently awash with reports that top MMM Guider in Nigeria, Chuddy Ugorji, and his wife, Amaka, have fled to the Philippines following the imminent collapse of the Ponzi scheme.
Several Nigerian news sites and social media commentators credit the revelation to a NAN report.
If Ugorji has indeed fled Nigeria, his move is coming barely 24 hours after he released some stringent conditions for the payment of hundreds of thousands of Nigerian investors.

Meanwhile, the scheme on Wednesday issued new guidelines on its blog. The guidelines include a decision to set limit of withdrawal this week at N31, 000 maximum withdrawals. It added that freezing of bonuses is a suggestion that would be tabled before Sergey Mavrodi for his consideration.

Ugorji had earlier given the impression that the Ponzi scheme had begun paying outstanding mavro (money) to Mavrodians, the participants of the scheme. But, sadly this has yet to become a reality.

Although we could not ascertain the authenticity of his fleeing as at press time, findings on Ugorji’s Facebook revealed that many participants of the scheme have been left in the dark following the inability to be paid back their monies.

Several messages sent by this correspondent to his Facebook page and those of his wife have been read but not acknowledged.

The MMM guider who is quite active on social media and is fond of immediately addressing allegations levelled against him on Facebook, has kept mum this time.

His last update was posted on January 6 and ever since, he has failed to respond to the heightened fears.
In his last post, which he titled Disclaimer Notice, he denied being behind another fast-rising Ponzi scheme, HELP NAIJA.

“This Disclaimer Notice is an express warning to all participants of MMM NIGERIA that I (Chuddy Urgorji) never launched any community named HELPNAIJA and am not part of any Donation Exchange or Mutual Aid Donation apart from MMM Nigeria, and as such have nothing to do with whoever came up with the idea claiming I launched HELPNAIJA on the 3rd of January 2017 and its as such have no affiliation to MMM NIGERIA, it is an imitation of MMM NIGERIA and not in anyway related.
Please Disregard any information not posted on My Facebook Wall.
Wish you all a prosperous New Year ,God bless you all,” he wrote.

In another related move, his wife has also since deleted all MMM related posts from public view on her Facebook page.

Recall that in December, his wife, Amaka, had earlier calmed frayed nerves in a Facebook message she posted assuring MMM participants of the scheme’s return.

Meanwhile this is not the first time that the MMM star guider will be accused of fleeing to the Philippines.

The allegations first surfaced in December and at that point, Chuddy refuted the claims saying – “MMM founder is a Russian Sergey Mavrodi not a Philippine.

I have never been to The Philippines; the stories about going to the Philippines are untrue. I stand for the true ideology of MMM which is anchored on providing and getting help willingly.”

A few weeks ago, another claim resurfaced on Facebook.

“Do you know that Chuddy Ugorji made over N5bn within a year? I heard that he has relocated to Philippine as MMM ask members to provide help before they can get their money. Odikwa risky o!” a Facebook user, Smith Ibe, wrote.

Meanwhile he has yet to respond to the over 70 comments of his MMM members on his Facebook page.
See some of the comments below.

Ab Gana, “I don’t really trust this chuddy. So I may find it hard to believe in him.”

Oluchi Iwuala Isilebo, “Unfortunately Chuddy is like any of us. I don’t think he has any power or say in MMM. It may surprise you.

Stev, “Chudy Ugorji, good morning. Is there any hope on the return of MMM or shall we look elsewhere?

Florenece Adiele, “Thanks nwanne, I deliberately searched for u on Facebook bcos alot of rumours has been spread about u, in fact we heard u said lazy Nigerians bye bye ooooo! Ur going to Philippines…. and all that so I went on Google and looked u up and found out about u. Please keep doing what ur doing, may God deliver u from ndi ayan ufu.

Certified Amosoft Ricies said, “He has fled with wife…hahahahah your broda.”

MMM, which before suspending operation on December 14 had over three million participants in the country, made inroads into the Nigerian investment market in 2015.

MMM’s decision to suspend the accounts of its patrons in 2016 threw millions of Nigerians into anguish.
When the Ponzi scheme returned on January 13, it encouraged its members to use bitcoin for transactions.
Nigerian officials have warned against use of bitcoin and also participation in Ponzi schemes like the MMM.
