MONEYBAG CHIEF TONY PREST PREPARES FOR DELTA 2015 ELECTION

We are totally loving the fact that some people are not seating on their high horses expecting miracles to happen or that others should do something. One of those who has thought to put his money where his mouth is, is none other than the very rich businessman from the illustrious Prest family from Warri,  Delta state in the person of Chief Anthony Tosan Prest. 


When people like him, who have the resources, wherewithal & connection (money wise & with great influence) would decide to stand for the welfare of his people, then we welcome such development with open hands and joy in our heart. We are loving the current campaign by Chief Tony Prest to recruit able volunteers towards his ambition to help change the fortune of his beloved people of Delta State. 

He has pitched his tent with the ruling party in the state which is the PDP and if all works out we might just be referring to the astute entrepreneur after the next election as His Excellency, Governor Anthony Tosan Prest. 

Chief Tony Prest is related to the former Miss Nigeria 1979, in the person of Helen Prest Ajayi, who is his niece, while his nephew is Mr. Michael Prest, a very very rich, oil tycoon director of Petrodel Group who not too long ago lost a landmark divorce case instituted against him by his ex-wife, where he had to pay the lady a whopping £17.5 million Pounds in settlement.

We totally love the thrust of Chief Tony Prest entry into politics-Time to end corruption in Delta State............

FRIENDS, FAMILY MEMBERS, ASSOCIATES ET ALL CELEBRATES JAMES ONANEFE IBORI'S BIRTHDAY IN ABSENTIA WITH POMP!

BIRTHDAY BOY

IBORI'S DAUGHTERS

 

BIRTHDAY CAKE

The incarcerated former Governor of Delta State, in the person of Chief James O. Ibori, whose cousin is the present Governor of the oil rich state and most probably the richest state in Nigeria, is still very relevant in the scheme of things in Nigeria, especially in his state-Delta.

Though the former Governor is still a guest of Her Majesty the Queen of England, in one of her jails for sundry criminal offenses, his birthday a few days ago August 4, 2013 to be precise was celebrated in his home town Oghara, Delta State by his friends,family members,admirers and associates & many others with plenty of pomp.

It was a large gathering of many very important personalities and their followers from the Delta region, who all came out in large numbers, to show solidarity with and celebrate a man who has meant so much to them either in jail or outside of it. It was also a way to show how still very relevant the former Governor is.

Chief James O. Ibori, the very influential PDP Stalwart before he ran away from the country to Dubai from where he was extradited to the UK to face the court for running afoul of the law and was subsequently jailed, was a very influential power-broker in Nigeria (the well renowned CNN DESCRIBED HIM AS ONE OF THE MOST INFLUENTIAL POLITICIANS in Nigeria in recent times), who was well celebrated with many titles while he was in ruling in Delta State; he would adding a new title to his many other titles- that of an ex-convict, by the time he comes out of jail in some months time.

If this birthday celebration is a pointer to what we should expect when he would be released, then we must expect a mother of all party, to celebrate the 'warrior who has gone to the battle field and conquered, winning a gloriously great victory.

The 3 days birthday celebration train began with a thanksgiving service at the First Baptist Church, Ogharefe, where the Pastor of the Church- Pastor Godswill charged those who attended to emulate the former Governor!

Hear the ' Man of God' What is that aspect of Ibori's personality that could attract such a mammoth crowd, which filled the church and overflowed outside, he had asked before answering his own question thus: ''It is a given that Ibori is a huge success. You have come to Oghara today because Ibori is  a man who after climbing high in the social, political and economic ladders of Nigeria, did not seize and throw away the ladders in the way that most Nigerian big men usually do; he made the ladders available for others to climb up too.

The 3 days birthday celebration of 'his grace', Chief James Onanefe Ibori, who clocked 55 years at the weekend- being born on August 4, 1958, would end today, Tuesday, August 6, 2013 with a topflight novelty football match in his honour set for the Ogbara Township Stadium.

All hail the birthday boy. Long may you live!!! You are a Lion par excellence!

OIL RICH DELTA STATE COLLABORATES WITH BEST OF NOLLYWOOD AWARDS

 

DR EMMANUEL UDUAGHAN

 

 Nigeria's premier Movie awards, Best of Nollywood Awards would rock Asaba, the Delta State capital this year 2013. It would be one of the biggest gathering of the movers and shakers and shapers of Nollywood, which is second only after Bollywood in terms of production. We hear also that the Guinness Book of Records has certified the World's Longest Red Carpet event which the stars/ celebs etc would walk on at this year's event. 

This year's edition is the 5th in the series and it would be at a 5000 seater dome. The confirmation of the event venue is coming after months of discussions with top officials of the Delta State Government.

According to the Governor of the state, Dr. Emmanuel Uduaghan, while signing a Memorandum Of Understanding to the effect on behalf of the State Government: "We are hosting this event for a lot of reasons. Nollywood and football come side by side in Nigeria when you talk about what sells us to the world, with Nollywood gradually overshadowing football, especially in African countries where our stars are hero worshiped.

 

"To us in Delta State, it is important we develop Nollywood, especially with the way filmmakers have gradually turned our state to the Hollywood of Nigeria. It is on record that an average of 300 films are shot yearly in Asaba because we have given the producers the right environment and also because our state is quite safe now after our heavy investment in our security operatives and security equipments."

 

The Executive Producer of the Awards, Mr. Seun Oloketuyi, had earlier disclosed that Asaba was chosen because it's not just the heartbeat of the Nation, but that of Nollywood. Producers not just love to shoot in Asaba, Oloketuyi said, the state is blessed with talented scripts interpreters in the mould of the legendary Richard Mofe Damijo, the late Enebeli Elebuwa, Fathia Balogun and Rachael Oniga to mention just a few.

Oloketuyi added: "Apart from the Awards, we will be setting a record for the longest Red Carpet in the world, a dream we have had since 2010 but could not happen then because of technical hitches. However, this time around, we are flying Adjudicators from the Guinness Book of World Records from the United Kingdom to ensure all goes well and the record is broken and so all that will attend will walk on the carpet.

"Overall, it will be a better Awards and Events managed by world class events managers and with world class standards in mind. Already, the first stage of the Awards has started with Nollywood filmmakers jostling to be part of the Awards as they have begun to submit their movies for the Awards. The entries for the Awards opened on Wednesday, May 1, 2013 and will close on Sunday, June 30, 2013.

Hence, the kiss of life.........Don't we just love it...........
