Captain Idris Wada: The Best Choice For Kogi State ~ By Ibrahim Usman All men are born but not all are born great. The land of Kogi was blessed when Capt.

Educated at the Government Secondary School, Dekina and the Federal Government College, Sakata he graduated with a Higher School Certificate.

Dear Orikinla, Throughout this campaign, one of the things that has touched me the most has been the incredible show of support I've seen from the people I meet every day. I'm energized by the crowds of thousands cheering on my campaign. I'm moved by the mother who takes my arm and tells me to fight to make sure the insurance companies don't deny her son coverage. And I am inspired by all you have done for my campaign. You've made calls, you've volunteered, you've voted, you've given -- and I'm so grateful for all you've done. My campaign has put together an album of some recent photos from the campaign trail in Texas, Ohio, and Pennsylvania. I hope you'll take a look and enjoy! Thank you for everything, Hillary Rodham Clinton

We still have challenges ahead, but I know that we can win if we work together, just like we did in Ohio, Texas, and Rhode Island. I'm so proud to have your support. Thank you for everything you do.

For everyone here in Ohio and across America who's been ever been counted out but refused to be knocked out, for everyone who has stumbled but stood right back up, and for everyone who works hard and never gives up -- this one is for you . ~ Hillary Clinton said before supporters in Columbus. I thank Jehovah God for Senator Hillary Clinton as she won the most crucial battles of the Democratic presidential race for the nomination Tuesday in Texas, Ohio and Rhode Island and only lost in Vermont where Senator Barack Obama won nine of the fifteen delegates at stake. Hillary Clinton disappointed many key figures in the Democratic Party and millions of the fanatics of Barack Obama who were rehearsing their "Hillary's Ignominious Finale" for the world premiere today, but God changed the script overnight and gave us a new script, "Hillary Clinton's Victorious Come Back!" As Barack Obama won 11 Democratic presidential primaries and caucuses in a row, most peopl...

Dear Orikinla, I wish you could be out on the trail with Hillary to see the energy and enthusiasm that is there for her every day. That enthusiasm, like your support, means so much to her in her historic run for the White House. The incredible energy every day in Texas and Ohio is something you should see for yourself. So I wanted to show you this video of two recent rallies in south Texas, to give you an idea of the kind of excitement Hillary gets to see every day. Take a look and show your support for Hillary: Something Exciting is Happening in Texas I know you share that crowd's enthusiasm for Hillary! I appreciate everything you're doing to help her win, and Hillary does too. Thank you, Ann F. Lewis Senior Adviser Hillary Clinton for President

27 Feb 2008 09:00 Africa/Lagos Surge, Hailed by Cheney Today in Texas, is Not a 'Change In Direction' But Justification of Failed Occupation Policy NEW YORK, Feb. 27 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- As the five-year anniversary of the Iraq invasion draws near, a new PR offensive by the White House is attempting to frame the recent troop "surge" as a strategic and military turnaround. But a growing chorus of experts warn that such claims merely mask the Administration's long-standing policy to ensure a protracted American occupation of the oil-rich nation. They warn that the occupation will not result in an end to the violence that has enveloped Iraq and so far claimed nearly 4,000 American lives. Speaking at Ft. Hood on Tuesday, Vice President Dick Cheney told Texas troops, "It was time for a new strategy, backed up by a surge of forces... and you did in fact turn things around." And at a town hall meeting in Ohio on Monday, Senator John McCain, the lik...
