The Deputy Governor Elect of the ALl Progressive Congress (APC) , Bayelsa State, Chief Biobarakuma Degi Eremienyo had called on the Nigerian Police to investigate  widespread allegations of certificates forgery levelled against him in a Supreme Court Judgement led by Justice Mary Odili which announced the dysqualification of   the Governor Elect, Chief David Lyon and himself the Deputy Governor Elect, Chief Degi
 Chief B.W Degi-Eremienyo
Eremienyo on Thursday February 13th  2020 less than 24 hours to their swearing-in, where the Supreme Court alleged forgery of certificates against him as a basis of dysqualification of the Governorship election won by the APC with a wide margine.
The soft spoken Deputy Governor Elect, yesterday Thursday February 20, 2020 during a media briefing in the Federal Capital Abuja said that it  was  shocking and unimaginable  for the Supreme Court to come out with such a forgery allegation against him.
Chief Degi Eremienyo posited that he went through schools and got his certificates and did not forge any of of them, giving assurances that the schools that ".. issues his certificates can confirm the authenticity of his credentials."
Chief Biobarakuma Degi Eremienyo is a man of integrity and of honour who from the genesis of his political career as Councillor,  as Vice/Chairman of  Brass Local Government Council, as Chairman of  Nembe Local, Government Council, as Commissioner for Rural Development and Chieftaincy Affairs, as Executive Director Federal Roads Maintenance Agency (FERMA) and Senator of the  Federal Republic of Nigeria from the Bayelsa East Senatorial District, endeared himself through service to the people of his immediate constituency, the state he came from and the Nigerian Nation over the years according to observers.
While briefing the Press the Deputy Governor Elect of Bayelsa State, Chief Biobarakuma Degi Eremienyo to under score his innocence said that some of the names that were attributed and published by the media as from the Supreme Court Judgement were not his names, but fabricated.
And after giving his names as
Biobarakuma Wangagha Degi Eremienyo, he challenged whoever is claiming these names or his certificates to come out, while calling on the Police to investigate the allegations of certificates forgery levelled against him from the Supreme Court Judgement.
He made it clear that the Supreme Court did not give him fair trial before arriving at whatever verdict.

APC NATIONAL LEADER DISSOCIATES BIOBARAKUMA DEGI FROM FORGERY ALLEGATIONS

The National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Comrade Adams Oshiomhole had said that there was nothing wrong with the documents submitted by Degi Eremienyo, the Deputy Governorship candidate of the APC in Bayelsa State for the
Comrade Adams Oshiomhole
APC National Chairman
governorship election, because they were the same documents he submitted to INEC and contested the senate position and won.
Adams Oshiomhole who stated this in a Press conference held at the APC National Secretariat Abuja, contended that there was no justification whatsoever to dysqualify Degi Eremienyo because of the documents he submitted.
Comrade Oshiomhole said there waa nothing added or removed, but the same ones he used for the Senatorial election.
" In his argument, Mr Oshiomhole said that the certificates presented by Mr. Degi Eremienyo to INEC when he contested for the Senate was the same he presented as a Deputy Governorship candidate, while emphasizing that:
"The qualification for being a Governor is the same qualification of being a Senator. It is the same documents that they used for his election as a Senator that he provided to INEC. There is no evidence that he subtracted or added.
On the issue of INEC giving  certificate of return to the PDP candidate, Mr.Douye.Diri, the APC Leader described it as against the dictates of the Constitution and what the Supreme Court said, which according to him shall be corrected in the temple of Justice through the peaceful process of the Law. Hear him:
"INEC expressly disobeyed the Supreme Court Order which insisted on votes spread.
" Democracy is a game of numbers, it would not be the intention of the Supreme Court that the man who did not have the spread be sworn-in as a Governor. That is why the Supreme Court made that provision." The APC Chieftain clarified and went further saying:
"We will employ every peaceful, legal means to upturn this illegal decision of INEC."
Meanwhile the Supreme Court had fixed Tuesday the 8th of February the cases of Bayelsa and Imo States.

BAYELSANS CONDEMN JUDICIARY FOR INVOLVING JUSTICE MARY ODILI IN A MATTER BETWEEN THE APC AND THE PDP AT THE SUPREME COURT

Thursday, 13th of February, 2020 has gone in the political history of Nigeria; especially Bayelsa State where the Supreme Court of Nigeria led by Justice Mary Odili and four other Justices gave judgement to nullify Governorship election set for inauguration in less than 24 hours.
It was just like a mighty wind that blew across Bayelsa, the only all Ijaw State in the Nigerian federation at about 11.30 a.m the news came  that the Governor Elect David Lyon and the Deputy Governor Elect
Justice Tanko Muhammad
CJN
Biobarakuma Degi Eremienyo were disqualified by the Supreme Court of Justice. A development that created a political tension that was not since after the Governorship/ House of Assembly Elections.

Pockets of PDP members celebrated with their flags, while the APC was quiet but still optimistic of victory.
But all boil down to raising questions and series of analysis from many quarters which placed, Justice Mary Odili, wife of former Governor of Rivers State, Dr  Peter Odili in the eye of the storm, because she was the First Lady of Rivers State and member of the PDP. This realisation came to public attention that as  wife of that great political gladiator, Dr. Peter Odili,  Justice Mary Odili might have been planted at the Supreme Court of Nigeria as a PDP member in the clothing of a Justice of the Supreme Court to work for the PDP against other parties.
It would be recalled that Ikenga Chronicles on 12 2016 published
 a report captioned:
 "BREAKING Fmr. First Lady Of Rivers Sttate Mary Odili Fingered In Bribery That Gave Gov. Wike Supreme Court Victory" reads:
Justice Mary Odili
"A report has emerged which shows that the former First Lady of Rivers State Mary Odili was involved in the Bribery of Supreme Court Justices which eventually secured victory for Governor Nyesome Wike during the Supreme Court hearing of the Rivers State Governorship election case."
In another development it was reported December 29, 2017 by *scooping.com" captioned:
"Can Nigeria's most political Supreme Court Justice become Chief Justice... 65 year old Justice Mary Odili is the fifth most senior in the Supreme Court and the most partisan of the lot."said the report.
The third report about Justice Odili and her Public Service career was published January 25,2018 by
" Point Blank News" captioned:
"ABIA GUBER TUSSLE: HOW JUSTICE MARY ODILI POSTPONED'
SUPREME COURT JUDGEMENT+ reads:
"Notoriously corrupt Justice Odili of the Supreme Court who is also wife to former Governor Peter Odili arm-twisted Supreme Court Justices to postpone judgement in case against Governor Okezie of Abia State."
With this kind of antecedents, it became clear to many that the Nigerian Judiciary made a costly mistake for keeping Justice Mary Odili at the Supreme Court to decide election matters between PDP.and APC or any other party  with PDP to which she allegedly had  always been an interested party in favor of the PDP.
David Lyon
Governor Elect, Bayelsa State
That according to public opinion shamppled shortly after the controversial Supreme Court Judgement in the Bayelsa State Capital Yenagoa was identified, as an error by the Judiciary. Why was Mary Oili, allowed  member of the PDP  be a Supreme Court Judge to decid the  Governorship election case between the APC and the PDP  in Bayelsa tantamount travesty of Justice against the APC.
The other painful thing Bayelsans  noted was the way and manner the Supreme Court with Mary Odili as the most senior member painted the baseless issue raised about, Biobarakuma having many names or different names in the certificates submitted to INEC. That the Deputy Governor Elect, Chief (Senator) Biobarakuma Wangagha Degi Eremienyo in the immediate past Governorship election in Bayelsa State submitted many names some spelling mistakes, that was all.
Biobarakuma Degi Eremienyo
Deputy Governor Elect
Bayelsa State
For the records, the Deputy Governor Elect, Biobarakuma Degi has contested elections from the grassroots level to the present with the same certificate and there was no issue till today.
He first contested Councillorship election in his Ikensi Ward in Old Brass Local Government Area in Old Rivers State and won, contested as Vice/Chairman and won,  contested  Chairmanship  in Nembe Local Government Area and won, screened as Commissioner nominee by the Bayelsa Assembly and passed, with the same certificates he was appointed Director at FERMA, and with the same certificates he was elected Senator of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, but because he became running mate in the Bayelsa Gubernatorial election this cock and bull story surfaced.
Can the Justices tell the Nigerian Nation and the world that Biobarakuma Wangagha Degi did not qualify from the schools but forged the certificates? Did any of his school deny, him that he was not their product?
All that the Supreme Court stands on to disqualify the Governor Elect of the APC in Bayelsa State, David Lyon and the Deputy Governor Elect Biobarakuma Degi is that the latter has different names in his certificates and spelling mistakes, that is baseless.
It is baseless as far as  knowledge and truth is concerned that in Nigeria, if there be such problem of letter error in any documents it takes Affidavit and Newspaper advert to correct it, that is all, and nothing more.
And still for the records there is need to give the name of the Senator Representing Nembe East Senatorial District that is the Deputy Governor Elect of Bayelsa State:
His Name -------+Biobarakuma
Father's Name -Wangagha
Grand Father--- Degi 
Chieftaincy title -Eremienyo
The claim that these or certificates were forged is not tenable, and unfair.
This is not Justice, Bayelsan electorate need Justice, they want their votes count and their voices heard that they need Justice. from the Supreme Court.

THIS HOUSE IS NOT FOR SALE: YOU CANNOT BUY OUR HOUSE, MRS NYANANYO TELLS DICKSON

A Bayelsan woman, Mrs Benaebi Tubo Nyananyo has announced that the building located at the Bayelsa State Police Area Command Road, Off AIT- Opolo-Elebele Road in the Bayelsa State Capital, Yenagoa,  sharing boundary with, Hon. Henry Seriake Dickson is not for sale.
She made the open declaration at the weekend during an interview with Golden Pen Newspapers blog.spot at the heels of a
His Excellency
Hon. Henry Seriake Dickson
controversial widespread allegation going round Yenagoa City and it's environ that Mr. Henry Seriake Dickson was using his position as Governor of Bayelsa State to forcefully take over both the house and the land with an unfounded claim of buying or already bought
 the said property belonging to her and her husband without their knowledge.
Going further, Mrs Tubo Nyananyo  alleged, she was reliably informed of Mr. Dickson's plan to deploy some ferocious uniform men  to come with bulldozers without any notice for demolition with a view to displace her family to boost his ego and to extend his empire.
The virtually troubled woman, Mrs  Tubo Nyananyo (Nee Egbuson) told this medium that she least expected that Hon. Dickson  could embark on such a ill-fated journey, believing that as Governor or former Governor, the Nigerian Constitution does not allow him to oppress law abiding citizens.
Mrs Benaebi Tubo Nyananyo
She used the medium to inform Golden Pen Newspapers that she had already contacted her Lawyers to stop the dastardly plans by Hon. Henry Seriake Dickson to throw her and her children out of their bonafide property and to take it by force. Hear hear:
" My name is Mrs Benaebi Tubo Nyananyo (Nee Egbuson), as you see me, I am in a deep state of mind, and I want all Bayelsans and the Nigerian public to hear my voice and to know what is happening to me and my family because of the house me and my husband built, over eight years ago.
"There had been widespread allegations that Hon. Henry Seriake Dickson had purchased our house and will soon come with some tough uniform men to bulldoze us out of the house and forcefully take it over.
" The truth is that this our house is not for sale, my husband and I who jointly built the house never at any time discussed about selling the property to anybody, not even to Dickson and, I hold strongly to the belief that no matter what amount is involved  our house is not for sale.
The House Not For Sale (1)
" It is a living storey building jointly built by me and my husband more than eight years ago. I, and our children are living in the house, but there are strong allegations that Hon Henry Dickson had bought our house and had concluded plans to come and take possession of it by force.
"I am deeply worried about this development which had given me and my family sleepless nights, having fears of the unknown. So I have already contacted my Lawyers  and necessary actions are being taken"
Mrs Nyananyo said.
She called on Dickson not to make any attempt to forcefully evict them and to take over their house, their family house, pointing out that the house is not for sale.
Meanwhile in a letter dated February 4, 2020, written by the Lawyers to Mrs Benaebi Tubo Nyananyo to His Excellency, Honorable Henry Seriake Dickson reads:
"CAVEAT EMPTOR TO HIS EXCELLENCY, HONORABLE HENRY SERIAKE DICKSON OVER THE PROPERTY JOINTLY OWNED BY MR. AND MRS NYANANYO BEING, LYING, AND SITUATE BY THE POLICE AREA COMMAND OFFICE,  OFF AIT, OPOLO-ELEBELE ROAD YENAGOA, BAYELSA STATE"
"We are the Solicitors to Mrs Benaebi Tubo Nyananyo Nee Egbuson of Police Area Command Road, Off AIT- Opolo-Elebele Road Yenagoa, Bayelsa State of Nigeria who is hereinafter referred to as "Our Client" and upon her firm and definite instructions we write and state as hereunder appearing:
Our Client's instructions are to the following effect:
The House Not For Sale (2)
1.That Mr. and Mrs Nyananyo Tubo Mienye are husband and wife who have been married for several years. Their marriage has been blessed with three children, two females and one male whose ages are thirty-one (31), thirty (30) and twenty eight (28) years respectively.
The marriage was contracted according to native law and customs and also under the Act. Mr. Nyananyo Tubo-Mienye had other children outside the marriage.
2.The property described as being, lying and situate along the Police Area Command Road, Off AIT-Opolo-Elebele, Road Yenagoa adjoining His Excellency, Honourable Henry Seriake Dickson's buildings is the matrimonial abode of Our Client housing all the members of the family since it's construction.
3.That the aforesaid property was jointly acquired and developed by Mr.and Mrs Nyananyo Tubo-Mienye
for family use well over eight years before  His Excellency, Henry Seriake Dickson acquired the adjoining land and developed a bungalow first and later on, a storey building...."
In the six paragraphs letter, the Lawyers stated unequivocally especially on the sixth paragraph saying:
" Therefore, your attempt to acquire the matrimonial and joint property without the consent of all the joint owners is tantamount to acquiring huge litigation. Accordingly, you have been WARNED and given adequate NOTICE not to buy a piece of law suit." The Lawyers warned!
All efforts to contact Hon. Henry Seriake Dickson for his comments  before going to  Press proved abortive.

ONLY WITH GOD SHALL NEMBE PROSPER, SAYS, PASTOR DAVID IBIYEOMIE

Niger Delta based Global Televangelist, Founder and Leader of Salvation Ministries Worldwide, Pastor David Ibiyeomie had made an open declaration that the Prosperity of the people of Nembe is in the Hand of God.
He stated this at the epoch making Divine occasion of "NEMBE UNITY CRUSADE/DEDICATION, held on Saturday February 1st 2020 at the centre of the Unity bridge Nembe, in the Nembe Local Government Area of Bayelsa State.
Pastor Ibiyeomie announced that he came under the instruction of God to put to an end, dastardly acts of  reckless killings, stealing and destruction of souls, and property in the land of Nembe with impunity.

Pastor David Ibiyeomie whose Ministries in January 20-24 this year engaged the global community in his annual evangelical "5 Nights Of Glory" Program, which ended on the 24th of January in obedience to the voice of God, and his love to salvage the land and  people of Nembe was highly welcomed.
Shortly after Choir Ministration, the Servant of God, Pastor David Ibiyeomie told the people of Nembe to take note that "wherever there is killing, stealing and destruction there is someone behind it" quoted John 10:10 reads:
"The thief cometh not, but for to steal and to kill and to destroy..."
He explained that the people of Nembe abandoned their Creator, the Almighty  God and began to serve and worship idles which he described as the foundation of all their problems of restlessnes  and insecurity. against the land and people of the "Nembe Ethnic Nation "(Nembe-se), and called on all the people to ask God to be merciful to the land of Nembe and also to forgive the people of Nembe all the sins they committed before the LORD and the atrocities they performed against themselves. Before the prayer session, Pastor Ibiyeomie laid a solid foundation on the authority of the  Word of God as follows:
1Peter 1:18-19 reads:
  "As much as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things as silver and gold from your vain conversation received by traditions from your father's, But with the precious blood of Christ as of a lamb without blemish and without spot."
Romans 3:25 reads:
"Whom God hath set to be a propitiation through faith in his blood to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God." and
Jonah 3:9-10 reads:
'Who can tell if God will turn and repent, and turn away from his fierce anger, that we perish not? And God saw their works that they turned from their evil way: and God repented of the evil that he had said that he would do unto them, and he did it not."
He then went further and stated graphically that:
" There is nowhere people are delivered without first asking for Forgiveness. Nembe must first ask for Mercy, and ask also for Forgiveness for all the atrocities c they against each other...
"There is no way evil can be lifted until the people say, God, have Mercy on us, and forgive us ...."
Pastor David Ibiyeomie who reminded the mammoth crowd that when God was going to destroy Sodom and Gomorrah, He said: "if there were just five" righteous men He will not destroy", remarked that Nembe-se had more than five righteous and could not be destroyed, but delivered.
He then called on the people of Bassambiri to bring sand from their soil and the people of Ogbolomabiri also to bring sand from their land for a covenant prayer. Haven called on all traditional rulers, political leaders,  opinion leaders, youth leaders and two women, one from Ogbolomabiri and the other from Bassambiri. He also called on militant leaders to also come out.
That done, the world renown Okrika born Niger Delta based Televangelist, Pastor David Ibiyeomie urged the people of the brotherly Communities of Ogbolomabiri and Bassambiri Kingdoms to openly declare their acceptance of peace, to shun violence, forgive one another and live in peace.
The Chairmen of the Councils of Chiefs of the two brotherly Communities, Chief Walter Feghabo-Amain on behalf of Ogbolomabiri and Boumonyo Amakiri Duo on behalf of Bassambiri proclaimed acceptance for peace for the communities.
The high point of the program was the DEDICATION OF THE LAND AND PEOPLE OF NEMBE-SE TO THE HAND OF GOD.
While under the influence of the Holy Ghost, Pastor David Ibiyeomie
committed the entire Nembe Ethnic Nation (Nembe-se) to the influence and Authority of JESUS THE CHRIST in a covenant prayer which he sealed with a bottle of anointed Olive Oil with assurances of peace and development to the peaceful, while sounding a warning that any individual or group that reject the peace and ferment trouble shall meet with circumstances of unbelievable consequences.
