Am 80% certain Jide will decamp to ACN within the next two years.For people applauding the PDP,let it be known that the elites and masses who voted Jide are ACN members and he happens to be avery popular guy on the Island.Jide knows that his next option is to decamp to ACN or else in the next election ACN will look for another Silver spoon popular guy on the Island and Jide will be defeated.

This is soooo like ACN.. Why are you not looking at the simple possibility that IBO Senior will use this victory as a platform to relaunch his bleak political career onward to Lagos Governorship

Where is the ACN National Publicity Secretary, Alhaji Lai Mohammed. He should speak out for the respect for the rule of law and respect for our judicial system. When it affects PDP the rule of law will prevail. When it affects ACN they keep mute. Concerning the Kaduna LG Poll take a look at what Lai said "In a statement issued in Lagos on Wednesday by its National Publicity Secretary, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, ACN said that as a law-abiding party, it had resolved to ask the court to stop the Kaduna State Independent Electoral Commission from conducting the polls on grounds of exclusion..." - Tribune.
If you want to be an activist don't be one-sided.

PointB: Congrats Babajide Obanikoro.

PDP is slowing creeping back to power as savvy Lagosians dissect and reject the draconian, and thieving ACN led by the drug baron Tinubu.
wat is your problem, by the way are your a Lagosian?

So much ignorance on this thread. The judgement is not executable as long as it can be appealed. The tribunal ruling can still be overruled. Wait for final judgement before you shout where is Lai Mohammed

Dudu_Negro:

This is the key point of their ruling! If this tribunal had not voided the voting records would Obanikoro have taken lead over Adeniji?

Does a tribunal headed by a retired citizen have the statutory power and authority to manipulate voting records? It seems this tribunal has assumed responsibilities and power reserved for INEC.

PDP is asking for trouble.......

Bros, same thing happened in Ekiti and Osun.

Its funny how ANC members declare any court judgement that goes in their favour as victory for democracy; and anyone contrary to their expectations as miscarriage of justice. I am waiting to hear from Tinubu and the rest of them on this matter.

Jide did not win this seat based on his dad's political machinery,he only cashed in on being a popular and likeable Lagos big boy.If his Dad had contested for that seat against him,his dad would have lost.

Dudu_Negro:

I believe it is appropriate to take disputes to tribunal. I dont believe tribunal should "void" electoral counts.

If those counts has strong cases of fraud established againt them beyond reasonable doubt . .then voiding then is in order

Dudu_Negro:


If the tribunal is a check and balance for LASIEC, who is check and balance for tribunal? You get my point? This is democracy.

The verdict of the tribunal is not final and subject to an appeal . . . but if the same strong exhibit of electoral malpractice as established at the tribunal is placed before the higher courts . . .The decision will be upheld . . .

Dudu_Negro:
Obanikoro has a lot of supporters amongst ibo people because of his name initials....and we clearly see that turn out here speaking for pdp. Most of the people that came in were weak whiners unfortunately...their whining blinded their vision from properly assessing the process .


In politics, numbers are very crucial and a seasoned politician will sway a group of people he/she feels can tilt the poll in their favor. So there is no need importing any form of tribalism cos Obanikoro is equally a Yoruba dude

Dudu_Negro:
Look, neither one of the parties trust the tribunal.....that says a lot! So who checks the checker?

In Nigeria,the average politician is not a gracious loser . .they go into the battle field with this feeling that they can never lose even when glaring indices says otherwise . . .So why should they applaud a decision that says they lost even when they knew they never deserved it . . . .

Truth = Truth, Whether you like it or not doesn't change it's status when established . . .

take dat: Jide did not win this seat based on his dad's political machinery,he only cashed in on being a popular and likeable Lagos big boy.If his Dad had contested for that seat against him,his dad would have lost.

Unfortuantely untrue. it was not Jide's likeable personality or his popularity that won this victory.
1: Adeniji's continued incompetence in Local council activities within the Ikoyi/Obalende constituency and critical community-friendly development
2: ACN's failure to keep their promises to the masses who voted heavily and waited for over 7 years. all the Wards in ETI-OSA LGA can attest to this. and this was clearly evident.
3: Most importantly, the selfless support Jide got (in spite of his proud, inexperienced and selfish campaign) from his LGA Ward Leaders.. they fought tooth and nail (myself included) to make sure the votes were not stolen by Tinubu's Fake SSS Operatives and Armed thugs from Lagos Island

Dudu_Negro:

...really, now pdp wants to give praise to Jakande? When pdp came into power in Lagos they ridiculed and mocked all the programs Jakande accomplished. I am surprised at this turn around and praise for Jakande.

Democracy and capitalism go hand in hand, they are spouse. You cannot have democracy without capitalism and when you have capitalism the cost of running government become expensive. Its eithrt you want democracy and its associated costs or you dont want it and then we shop around for an alternative.....but stop attributing tax hike and cost of living to governor or party. You have the choice to relocate to a less expensive city in Nigeria and there are plenty to choose from.
I have been suspecting that you survive on weeds or some sorts of narcotics.. Take a closer look at the bolded again. It will be demeaning on my personality to join issues with you further since you don't even know or understand recent history then what kind of intellectual depth are you going to display in an argument that require mature minds. No wonder you have been so off points.

You won't have long to wait, the infamous Alhaji Lie Lie Mohammed is going to address a world (ati universe) press conference tomorrow.

My congrats to the Obanikoros.
