Local Libertarian parties host Liberty Session

The Caddo and Bossier parish libertarian parties held a liberty session this afternoon.

Candidates for local, state, and federal positions talked about the issues they want to take on in office.

The audience was able to ask questions followed by short speeches from the candidates.

Randall Lord, Candidate for US House District 4, says as a libertarian he can vote based on issues and not party politics.

"If a civil liberties issue comes up that the Democrats are very much in favor of but the Republicans are opposed I can vote with the Democrats, Lord said If a spending issue comes up that I agree with the Republicans on, I will vote on that side. So I can go back and forth. I will vote with the issues not with the political parties."

Lord is running against Republican, John Fleming.

Ohanaeze threatens APC for linking Ihejirika with BHaram

Chief of Army Staff, Lt.-Gen. Azubuike Ihejirika | credits: http://www.naijanation.com

The Ohanaeze Ndigbo Youth Wing on Sunday threatened to label the All Progressives Congress an anti-Igbo political party if it fails to apologise to a former Chief of Army Staff, Gen. Azubuike Ihejirika, within 48 hours.

The threat, which the Ohanaeze Youth Wing issued in a statement jointly signed by its National Secretary, Emmanuel Nnabuike, and Publicity Secretary, Obinna Adibe, followed the APCs call for Iherjikas prosecution over alleged sponsorship of the Boko Haram sect.

The APC demanded Ihejirikas prosecution in the wake of claims made by Australian negotiator, Mr. Stephen Davies.

In the statement titled, Ongoing Attempts To Brand Gen. Ihejirika a Boko Haram Sponsor, the Ohanaeze youths described Davies claims as spurious.

The group expressed regrets that the APC did not bother to ascertain the veracity of the negotiators allegations before calling for Ihejirikas prosecution.

Ohanaeze youths noted that Ihejirika deserved an apology from the APC since the Department of State Security had absolved him of complicity in the sponsorship of the Boko Haram sect

It is on record that the same people trying to frame up Gen. Ihejirika are the same people who claimed they would make Nigeria ungovernable for President Jonathan in the aftermath of the 2011 presidential election.

We view the call for Ihejirikas trial by the All Progressives Congress through its spokesman-Alhaji Lai Mohammed, without bothering to confirm the authenticity of the statement, as malicious and premeditated.

Now that the Department of State Security has officially absolved Ihejirika of any complicity in the matter, we ask the APC to issue an apology to Gen. Ihejirika and Ndigbo within 48 hours.

APCll salvage Nigeria from misrule Odigie-Oyegun

National Chairman, All Progressives Congress, Chief John Odigie-Oyegun

The National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress, Chief John Odigie-Oyegun, has said that the party will salvage Nigeria from its current challenges and provide Nigerians with a true visionary and progressive leadership.

He stated that the party was poised to rescue the country from the precipice of underdevelopment and return it to the path of greatness.

While appealing to Nigerians to support the APC in the forthcoming general elections, he commended a former Governor of Kwara State, Dr. Bukola Saraki, for his efforts in nation building.

The APC boss spoke in Ilorin on Saturday during the 50th birthday anniversary of Sarakis wife, Toyin.

While eulogising Toyin for supporting her husband, he said Saraki took a good decision by dumping the Peoples Democratic Party for the APC.

Odige-Oyegun said, Your husband has the singular courage from a commanding position of a party with better federal might to come down to becoming a member of the APC, that is the opposition party with a very good prospect.

And every day he works assiduously to ensure that he will be back in power as part of a new government that will bring change, prosperity and hope to Nigerians in 2015.

He has passion for that vision and together with those of us here who have resolved to rescue this country, because we are the greatest black nation on the face of the earth with potential for greatness.

With the people like Bukola Saraki, the ex-chairman of the new PDP, Alhaji Abubakar Kawu Baraje here and another courageous man such as Owelle Rochas Okorocha and the legitimate secretary of the PDP, Chief Olagunsoye Oyinlola, the PDP is a party that is fast sinking into oblivion.
