Bash Ali Protests At PDP Secretariat



A former World Boxing Federation (WBF) title holder, Bashiru Ali, popularly known as Bash Ali, has appealed to the Federal Government to support him in the staging of a world-record boxing fight to be hosted by Nigeria.
Mr. Ali who staged a protest at the headquarters of the Peoples Democratic Party in Abuja in pursuit of his bid was on Tuesday, locked out of the premises, alongside his supporters.  His efforts to get the Federal Government to support him in staging a Guinness Book of World Record bout have so far proved abortive.

“You Are A Failure” – Fasheun Fires Back At Ahmadu Ali For Calling Yoruba Ingrates



Founder of the Oodua People’s Congress, OPC, Dr. Frederick Fasehun, has fired back at a former Chairman of the People’s Democratic Party, Alhaji Ahmadu Ali, for describing Yoruba people as ingrates.
The OPC boss , while describing Ali’s comment as a symptom of “verbal diarrhoea,” said it showed that the former Minister of Education, whose mishandling of a students’ crisis led to the death of several youths in 1978, “was as insensitive, reckless and narcissistic as ever.”
Fashenu in a statement on Tuesday, said it was bad for the retired colonel to insult world-class Yoruba dignitaries whose shoe latch he could not untie.
He said, “There are some leaders, who had accidentally found themselves in positions in our national life, but their poor performance made them immaterial that Nigerians would rather prefer to abandon on the rubbish dump of ignominy.
