Some of these aspirants are dead on arrival.

1. Kenny st. Brown for Ikeja in Lagos under APC, the no primaries party.

2. ODE, as in olusola Desmond Elliott, what a funny name for the opposition to use against him. Again, he is contesting in a no primaries party.

3. 9ice , again in APC, the no primaries party. But in his suit and bow tie he looks more like Emir of Kano, Sanusi Lamido Sanusi , a well know promoter of hatred in religion

As I said, their political ambition are all dead on arrival, especially with party of 'imposition of candidates' .

The only celeb that this move played out well for to my knowledge was Rotimi Makinde of Osun. All these ones are just wasting time.

This is politics people, these guys are not out to ultimately win the election. What they want is recognition and affiliation with those parties.

This is how it works: You make so much noise about contesting, then you start negotiation with you competitor/within ur party as primaries get closer. If you are lucky you get a juice appointment when your party wins the election if you are not that lucky you get some cash settlement for stepping. Down!!!!. Either way its a win win situation for them.

Evathyst: while I may not know d reason behind ur assertion, but I want to categorically tell u dt Mrs Kate Henshaw is very popular in her constituency which is Calabar/Odukpani. In d little way she can, she has been touching lives. It's only dt unlike some of dem, she doesn't manipulate d media to assume a 'larger than life' posture.

I'm a Corp member who is serving in Bakassi LG nd I can attest to her popularity. Apart 4rm being a great fan of her movies, I also follow her weekly column on d pages of Vanguard newspaper. May God bless her political ambition nd dt of other 'well meaning' entertainers turning politicians as well. I repeat, we'll meaning o!



In conclusion, although I knew how George Oppong Weah lost d presidential election of Liberia under d 'owuruwuru' circumstance. Bt Plz enlighten me, Wat happened to Wyclef Jean? Has he ever contested an election? Abeg tel me I no know o!

Wanted to become president of Haiti.

Some of them have started their campaign already. I think the constitution said that it is unlawful to start election campaign 90 days prior to the election proper. My take on this is that they were already breaking the law they were vying to uphold by this act of impunity. What would happen when they get there proper can only be imagined.
