The breakdown in this video is pure, unvarnished truth. ​When a leader has nothing to hide, he doesn't need to build a godfather cartel to protect him. What Peter Obi did in Anambra- cutting off the siphoning pipes without bowing to political extortion- is the exact blueprint needed for...

The Circle (2000, Panahi)/ Iran "Political movies have limited time. After that time, it doesn’t say anything anymore. But if the whole thing is said in an artistic way, then it doesn’t have an expiration date." --- Jafar Panahi Full Excerpt: "Interviewer: The subject matter of 'The Circle' (2000) is controversial. You mentioned that the film is still banned in Iran. In fact, when I was watching the film, I realized that through the characters, there’s a lot of fear about the system, the establishment, the police. The women can’t smoke; they have to wear the chador; they seem to want to hide every time. This is all very clear from watching the film. Did you deliberately want to make a statement about the political situation in Iran? Panahi: I have to tell you again that I’m not a political person. I don’t like political movies. But I take every opportunity to comment on the social issues. I talk about the current issues. To me it’s not important what is the reason for what has happened. Whether it’s political reasons or geographical reasons: these are not important—but the condition, the social issues. It is important to me to talk about the plight of humanity at that time. I don’t want to give a political view, or start a political war. I think that the artist should rise above this. Political movies have limited time. After that time, it doesn’t say anything anymore. But if the whole thing is said in an artistic way, then it doesn’t have an expiration date. So it doesn’t really serve a political purpose. Then it can be everlasting, for always, and it could be for anywhere. But I know that politically, with the film authorities, with any kind of film that has some political background in it, they would take issue with it. And for this reason, that is what the problem is. Interviewer: Still, your film makes a very strong statement about the problems that women face in Iran. Panahi: Yes, I agree with that. Interviewer: So that is humanitarian, of course, but it’s also political. Panahi: Yes, I agree with that. It has the elements. It all depends on how you look at it. If a person has only political views, then he will only see the political. But if you are a poet or an artist, then you see other things as well in the movie. If you are a socialist, you see political or economic or whatever different points of view. You mustn’t look at a film with only one point of view. If you want to see 'The Circle' (2000) as political, then it is one of the most political movies in Iran. By political, I mean partisan politics. But even the police, I didn’t want to show them as bad. In the first instance, you are afraid of the police. Because you are looking at them from the point of view of someone who is now in prison. And normally you see him in a long shot, but when they come nearer and you see them in a medium shot, you can see their human faces. Then it comes down to, “Do you need any help?” But he goes back again and becomes frightening. If I were being political, then I would always show the police as dangerous or bad persons." (Jafar Panahi's interview with Stephen Teo, Senses of Cinema, 2001)

The governorship elections in Kogi, Imo, and Bayelsa states are scheduled to take place this Saturday, the 11th day of November. These elections, which are classified as off-cycle, are the first set of polls to take place after the 2023 general elections in our country. Although there is a groundswell of dissatisfaction and resentment about how the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) walked back on the promise of transparency in the last general elections, but that shortcoming is not enough reason for us to give up on democracy. Despite our disappointments, I urge us all to derive wisdom in the immortal saying of former US President James Monroe that, "the best form of government is that which is most likely to prevent the greatest sum of evil." Our objective of defeating anti-democratic elements in our polity cannot be successful if we refuse to go out enmasse to cast our ballot on Election Day. And, that is why, I am appealing to the good people of Bayelsa, Imo and Kogi states to come out in large numbers this Saturday to vote for the candidates of the Peoples Democratic Party in those respective elections. In Bayelsa State, Governor Duoye Diri has given a good account of himself as a leader who is directly responsible to the people. His giant strides in the areas of infrastructure and social development speak volumes about how his government has been able to touch the lives of the people positively. In Kogi, Senator Dino Melaye has shown great capacity to stand on the side of the people and, by so doing, using every opportunity available to him to drive speedy development to his constituents. Electing him governor will afford him a bigger platform to do even more. In Imo State, too, Senator Samuel Nnaemeka Anyanwu has a rich profile of a political leader who is not only in touch with the grassroots but is committed to protecting the interests of his constituents. Senator Anyanwu is a political leader who I believe has what it takes to take Imo State to a higher pedestal in good governance. While our great party, the Peoples Democratic Party, has put forth visionary leaders whose main objective is to serve the people, it is a different story altogether with our main rival, the APC. In Kogi, Bayelsa, and Imo, candidates flying the flags of the APC are known to be stooges of some godfathers within or outside of those states. The elections this Saturday are absolutely about the people. It is absolutely not about any political godfather. That is why it is important for the people of Imo, Bayelsa, and Kogi state to come out in large numbers to vote for the PDP and to reject the APC that has brought us untold hardship and misery. These elections are more about the fortunes of the common people, and it is my firm belief that when the people vote and stand to protect their votes, democracy wins. When democracy wins, the people invariably win. Thank you all for listening, and I wish you a pleasant polling experience on Saturday. -AA

The Singaporean has been arrested after he being defrauded? Why is the NDC Regional Chairman Ashie Moore still free? I know this turn of event follows For The Records exposé on this issue Let’s revisit what the law says from the Political Party Act 2000 (Act 574) PART III-FUNDING OF POLITICAL PARTIES Section 23: Contribution by Citizens. Only a citizen may contribute in cash or in kind to the funds of a political party. A firm, partnership, or enterprise owned by a citizen or a company registered under the laws of the Republic at least seventy-five percent of whose capital is owned by a citizen is for the purposes of this Act a citizen. Section 24: No Contribution by Non-Citizens. A non-citizen shall not directly or indirectly make a contribution or donation or loan whether in cash or in kind to the funds held by or for the benefit of a political party and no political party or person acting for or on behalf of a political party shall demand or accept a contribution donation or loan from a non-citizen. Section 25: Contraventions of this Part. Where any person contravenes section 23 or 24, in addition to any penalty that may be imposed under this Act, any amount whether in cash or in kind paid in contravention of the section shall be forfeited to the State and the amount shall be recovered from the political party as debt owed to the State. The political party or person in whose custody the amount is for the time being held shall pay it to the State. A non-citizen found guilty of contravention of section 24 shall be deemed to be a prohibited immigrant and liable to deportation under the Aliens Act, 1963 (Act 160). The provisions of sections 23 and 24 do not preclude a goverment of any country or a nongovernmental organization from providing assistance in cash or in kind to the Commission for use by the Commission for the collective benefit of registered political parties. The law is clear on this and we expect the NDC Chairman to refund the money sponsored by Toh You Kang into their campaign to the state. Total Abuse of Power! Scam Aban!

Thank You, Ben Habib , for Speaking the Truth: Tommy Robinson Is a Political Prisoner Finally, someone with the courage to say it like it is—thank you, Ben Habib! In an era where silence and complicity reign supreme, Habib’s acknowledgment that Tommy Robinson 🇬🇧 is a political prisoner is a breath of fresh air. The establishment has done everything in its power to silence Robinson, from abusing terror legislation to throwing him into solitary confinement. All because he dared to expose truths that others were too afraid to touch. As Habib rightly pointed out, this isn’t about justice—it’s about silencing a man who’s become an inconvenient thorn in the side of those in power. Robinson’s plight is a reflection of the broader failure of our institutions. He represents the working-class citizens who feel betrayed and ignored, the people who have been screaming for justice while the media and political elites look the other way. For years, Robinson has faced persecution, yet his message resonates with thousands who see through the lies and cover-ups. As Habib stated, “When the establishment fears someone, they don’t debate them—they destroy them.” It’s time to stop pretending. Tommy Robinson is not just a political prisoner—he’s a symbol of the fight for free speech and accountability. Thank you, Ben Habib, for having the integrity to stand up and say what so many already know.

With Mayor Dele Oshinowo, leadership has never been about empty promises or political grammar. It has always been about visible impact, real work and a connection with the people. For eight years, the people of Agboyi-Ketu experienced a government that worked tirelessly, delivered consistently and transformed communities in ways everyone could see, feel and testify to. The records are everywhere: in the roads, the housing projects, the empowerment programmes, the schools, the ICT revolution, the healthcare interventions and the opportunities created for thousands of residents. What makes this journey different is simple: the people already know what Mayor Dele Oshinowo is capable of. They have seen a leader who understands the grassroots, listens to the people and delivers with results that speak louder than campaign promises. Now, Kosofe Federal Constituency has the opportunity to take that same proven leadership, experience and people-first governance to a bigger stage. This is not a gamble. This is not trial and error. This is a continuation of tested leadership and visible performance. We urge the good people of Kosofe to look at the records, look at the impact, listen to the voices of the people and support Mayor Dele Oshinowo for the House of Representatives. Because when leadership truly works, the people always win. Support proven capacity. Support visible impact. Support stronger representation for Kosofe. Support Mayor Dele Oshinowo for House of Representatives, Kosofe Federal Constituency. Stronger Representation; Stronger Kosofe.
