Conservative Leaders defy Barrack Obama's directive.

A directive from the US Justice and Education Departments told public schools across the US on Friday to let transgender students use the facilities that match their gender identity.

Politicians in Texas, Arkansas and elsewhere have vowed defiance after the Obama administration asked them to let students use the bathrooms and locker rooms they prefer.


The Parents of the transgender students met it with tearful praise - but conservative leaders rejected it vehemently and said the President Barack Obama's Administration forces its liberal agenda on states that roundly reject it,' Mississippi Republican Governor Phil Bryant said

Human Rights Campaign President Chad Griffin called the directive 'groundbreaking'. He said in a statement:

 “This is a truly significant moment not only for transgender young people but for all young people, sending a message that every student deserves to be treated fairly and supported by their teachers and schools,"

Gov. Fayose comes hard against President Buhari again

The Ekiti State Governor Ayodele Fayose said on Tuesday that President Muhammadu Buhari at 73, is not strong enough to lead Nigeria. He further said, his criticisms against Buhari is not born out of hatred but that most people that voted him did that out of frustration. Read what he said Below.

“People say that I abuse Buhari, I am not abusing him because he is like my grandfather but I know the history. Eighty per cent of people that voted for Buhari in the South-West did not know him. They are between 18 and 40. They voted because they wanted change desperately and I agree with them. He left government 32 years ago so they did not experience his rule.

“Today, the Peoples Democratic Party is no longer in government so they should stop blaming the PDP. They told us that dollars would become one to one with the naira. But where is that today? The regime of fuel subsidy is gone and we now have food subsidy. Queues are back at petrol stations. Whatever I say is divine. The next thing to happen will be the removal of the Kogi State governor. I have not lost a battle in my life and when I lost one, I came back to win.

“We have never had it so bad like in the last 12 months; electricity has gone to zero and we no longer have light in our houses. I am here to tell Nigerians that we are in the wrong direction because you cannot give what you don’t have. There is a time to retire because of the diminishing return on the functionality of the brain. At 75, my mother can do little.”

“When you want to deal with corruption, do it wholeheartedly. Don’t say because this person has now joined the All Progressives Congress, he is now a saint. When I was supporting the ACN, they gave me many titles. Now that I am no longer with them, they see me as an enemy,”
