Image
Daily Rendezvous  The National Labour Congress and the Trade Union Council holds a mediation meeting in Yola to resolve the internal crisis between the ousted labour Party chairman and incumbent caretaker committee. The move is an avenue for the team of party executives led by the Algon Chairman Rev. Illiya Mathias who recently passed a vote of no confidence on the State Party Chairman Mr. Nicholas Christopher on multiple grounds to present all arguments for deliberations and possible reconciliation reaffirming the incumbency of Mr. Nicholas Christopher as the State Labour Party Chairman.

Is this the Coming of Adamawa State APC Messiah?

Image
Daily Rendezvous   I have been in the tour team of Hon. Patricia Yakubu throughout the 21 Local Governments of Adamawa State. The mantra was just one: she's turning water into wine and making many party women walk on water. Her first call was to summon all the APC women leaders and other women party Executive from the ward level to the local government to have a progressive discussion towards the unity of the party. They can focus on supporting the party stakeholders and the 2027 election. Should I remind us that I once said she's on a journey of sacrifice? Based on her past records and curriculum vitae, she's supposed to be at the National Affairs of the party, but she decided to accept the task to come down to the state level to ensure that the change mantra has clinched in the state party affairs of Adamawa. Among the 21 Local Governments we visited, the words of the State woman leader have massaged the emotional quantum of our women party officials and renew...

Image
Daily Rendezvous I wish to congratulate a mother and leader that has all that it takes to lead as the President of Royalty of Adamawa State. She is a Colossus that has so many potentials in delivering the much needed Support system to many. One of the many reasons of that endeared her the titled of the Gamji Cika-soro Yola. My first day of meeting Mss Halima Bala had proven her capacity and capability of leadership while she served as the Information Public Officer (IPO) of Modibbo Adama University Yola, and now as the first female Registrar of the Same institution where she has brought a lots changes. This is beside being fully supportive to her principal the Vice Chancellor of the University.

Adamawa2023: "You Are Overstretching Your Limits, INEC is an Independent Body-Group Warns IPAC

Image
Daily Rendezvous  A statement released on Sunday by the Adamawa Inter Party Advisory Council (IPAC), signed by it's Chairman, Hon. Bello Babajo is totally out of line with it's responsibility and role, as a body that offers advisories to political parties.  We find the statement laced with a hidden motive as well as designed to threaten the National Chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission, Prof. mahmoud Yakubu using a common and over flogged bait.  Why would the Adamawa IPAC chairman weaponise violence in his statement? What is the essence of suggesting a break down of law and order in a bid to frighten INEC towards carrying out its bidding? We advice Bello Babajo to restrain himself and Adamawa IPAC from creating an atmosphere that will suggest unrest. We believe that INEC should be allowed to carry out its constitutional mandate as stipulated by law without any undue influence and pressure.  Babajo and his Adamawa IPAC can go ahead and...

RE : EXPOSED: Fintiri''s Dubious Political Deals to Retain Power at All Cost

Image
Daily Rendezvous        By George Kushi Once again charlatans are at work. With nothing to do other than to create mischief,a hired pen is at work trying to conjure an image of criminal scheming that has failed to impress due to the fact that nothing is outside normal politicking.  From all indications,the Binani camp has been flustered and is desperate to hold on to imaginary narratives of posible political life-saving measures. In any event this new strategy will not work. The PDP campaign team is well aware of the desperation  that has forced the Binani camp to employ  writers whose styles exposes their identities. Even more interesting is that the perceived author  might be a fictitious Dahiru Sani sponsored to creat a diversion and corrupt the minds of a few gullible people. However,this article ,full of mischief demands scrutiny not because it has any merit ,but because false statements,coupled with irrational thoughts need expla...

Daily Rendezvous The impact of the ATM Governor, Ahmadu Umaru Fintiri's vision In Adamawa State, is an unbeatable reality that Adamawa detractors have not been able fathom and had to resort to underhand tactics of launching smear campaigns against the most outstanding progress the state has ever recorded in the past few decades.

Breaking: Fintiri Relaxes Curfew, "We Shall Overcome" Fintiri Says

WE SHALL OVERCOME  BY GOVERNOR AHMADU UMARU FINTIRI ON THURSDAY 29TH OCTOBER 2020. Fellow Citizens, circumstances that have unfolded since my last Address to you necessitates that I Address you once again. I have moved round and assessed the damages and the extent to which the latest mayhem visited on our State has reversed the progress we have made in recovery from the backwardness we inherited. I do admit that it is colossal even as I feel and share the pains of all our well-meaning citizens. In the midst of all these, we must all resist the actions and utterances of those whose aim is to gain political mileage over our collective tragedy and misfortunes. Turning the unfortunate mayhem into an issue for political discourse, is the height of insensitivity whose level we cannot be reduced to. I have reviewed the situation in the State with Security Operatives and duly observed that relative calm is returning across the State. May I acknowledge and commend the conduct of...

Politicians Trying to Score Cheap Political Points from Looting Are Enemies of the People -Victor Dogo

Image
Daily Rendezvous The Senior Special Assistant to the Adamawa State Governor on Social Mobilisation, Victor Dogo, has cautioned the oppostion, frantically aiming a dig at the governor, suggesting that the looted palliatives were consignments received from federal government but not given to the people.Dogo said, the narrative is false, misguided and mischievous in all fronts.  The mare endorsement of looting of public and private property makes any political group or party an enigma to the people it seeks to impress and it leaves such politicians and their party with the heavy duty of explaining how towing away of tractors, removing roofing sheets, brandishing knives and clubs, in any way resembles attempt to get food items.  Dogo made this known in a statement made available to Daily Rendezvous, Tuesday. Dogo said, "Since the flagging off of this Fresh Air government, it has been unapologetically committed to addressing the needs of the people of this stat...
