1. A. Ekweremadu’s removal will worsen N’Assembly crisis, says Sani
B. APC Reps sue Dogara
C. Delay in naming House committees stalls Reps’ duties
Hephzibah: Lawmakers, can we assume you're on strike? This one that you're not "entertaining" us in the National Assembly yet you want to get paid? It's not good ooo

2. Buhari treating our members as criminals –PDP
Hephzibah: Chief Metuh, please don't be annoyed ooo. Please help me answer my question - are your members guilty of the offence(s) or not? If they are not, please institute legal proceedings. If they are, mount pressure on the FG to institute legal proceedings.

3. I won’t spare any corrupt APC member –Buhari
Hephzibah: We don hear, Baba. One little bird said "ACTIONS SPEAK LOUDER THAN WORDS". Please provide us the contact details of the ROBOT manning your "Direct Access" desk so we can report corrupt APC (or is it All Nigeria People Congress?) members.

4. President dumps National Conference report –Source
Hephzibah: Baba, is it true? The President must hear this! Oops, you are the president! One person says Nigeria is at 1% recovery after 2 months of "Change". If I know my Maths well, that means, we have 198 months (16.5 years) to go before we get to 100% recovery, if we continue at this pace...Baba, that one is not good ooo

5. Dasuki: DSS extends probe to botched B’Haram deals
Hephzibah: I'm beginning to lose interest in this Dasuki case. If he made deals with Boko Haram, please prosecute him with correct evidence. All these media "revelations" are offensive to me, please...

6. Absence of health minister compounds UCH crisis
Hephzibah: Baba, and you're asking us to wait till September? Ha! How can there be a circular directing hospitals to pay workers a certain amount yet it is not included in the budget...

7. Group asks court to stop Eko Atlantic City project
Hephzibah: Watching...

8. Radio Biafra still streams on the Internet – NBC
Hephzibah: See how NBC is just doing free advert for Radio Biafra...

9. NAFDAC denies corruption allegation against DG
Hephzibah: I'll expect the DG to deny, not NAFDAC please...The responsible thing is to investigate the allegation, not deny it @NAFDAC. ICPC/EFCC, your attention is required here...

10. Okpara advises NFF on U-23 team
Hephzibah: Willy Okpara is making sense...Ideally, the U-23 team should be a feeder team for the Super Eagles, the U-20 for the U-23, U-17 for U-20 etc. NFF, please put your house in order. Okpara, your head is there...

11. Buhari and the challenge of national reconciliation
Hephzibah: "Beyond the inauguration speech, very little has happened to define and deepen the priorities of Nigeria's ruling party and government"...I'm still trying to recover from the 1% loading photo comment! Baba, please gather momentum and start some brisk walking please. Don't be like the teams in all those sport movies that wait till the last minute to score the winning goals/shots. As "miraculous" as those goals/shots appear, they are indicative of poor preparation, most of the time. Baba, please spare us the difficult conversation in 2019; please make each day count POSITIVELY! Thanks.

12. Ebonyi appoints former gov to resolve salary crisis
Hephzibah: As annoying as the salary crisis is, it is nice to see that the Ebonyi state government has constituted a committee to come up with a way forward. I hope the committee will do a professional job as quickly as possible. Frankly, we need entrepreneurs in government. Why should a state be borrowing to pay salaries? That means they're not producing anything...

I am praying for my nation. I hope you are doing the same?

Enjoy your day.
