If You Mess Up In Ekiti And Osun, You Will See Our Reactions – Tinubu Warns PDPThe #1 opposition force of Nigeria, the All Progressives Congress (APC), warned the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and the other contestants of the upcoming Ekiti and Osun gubernatorial races that rigging at the elections would not be tolerated.
A former governor of Lagos State and APC National Leader Bola Tinubu made this declaration in his speech at the Ladoke Akintola University of Technology, Ogbomoso, Oyo State, where he was given a doctoral degree in Management Science and decorated as the chancellor of the university on April 23, 2014, Wednesday. 
“We are prepared not to go to court but to drive you out. We will not take it anymore. If you mess up in Ekiti and Osun states, you will see our reactions. For every action, there must be a reaction.”
The ceremony at the university was attended by Muhammadu Buhari, Atiku Abubakar, Bisi Akande, Abiola Ajimobi, Rauf Aregbesola, Abdulfatah Ahmed among others. 
Tinubu confirmed APC’s previous declarations on readiness to form an alliance with Jonathan’s Administration in the war against terrorism in Nigeria, however, noted that his government was“married to corruption”.
“Patriotism is about country, not about self or religious bigotry. On this issue all Nigerians must stand bi-partisan, united and in complete solidarity against the threat to our nation.”
APC leader debunked the allegations that his party has pacts with Boko Haram insurgents or with any other violent groups.
“We seek your votes, not your lives. Boko Haram is our enemy because the Nigeria we seek has no place for their wicked recreation.”
He further advised Jonathan to seek solution for Boko Haram violence at the regional level, by improving cooperation between Nigeria, Cameroon, Chad and Niger, as well as within the African Union
Tinubu said that the war being unleashed on Nigeria by the insurgents had reached a point where Jonathan should develop a grand strategy to put an end to the criminal activities of the insurgents.
The governorship poll is scheduled for June 21, 2014, in Ekiti and for August 9, 2014 in Osun. The Independent National Electoral Commission has already found out massive irregularities during voters’ registrations in the two states.

The dispatch with which ordinary Nigerians rescued the motorist whose vehicle plunged into the Lagos lagoon from the Third Mainland Bridge on Saturday, January 26, 2013 proved once more that Nigerians are great people. Unlike most stories from Nigeria that usually end on a sad and demoralising note, this story ended on a happy note like a Nollywood film. It was nothing short of a miracle. The sole occupant of that vehicle was brought out of the lagoon alive. But he was not rescued by the Nigerian Navy or the Nigeria Police Force; neither was he rescued by the National Emergency Management Agency or Lagos State Emergency Management Agency or any agency of Lagos State. Mr Shola Oladimeji was rescued by fishermen.  These were not fishermen that used modern boats with special gadgets or equipment. These were men with old-fashioned canoes with paddles. They saw a car plunge into the water and went swiftly and got the occupant of the vehicle out, alive.  Before the government a
