After deep politicking and game changing calculations at the International Conference Centre today, The APC in a straw poll have elected Femi Gbajabiamila as the Next Speaker of the 8th Assembly with Hon. Ali Monguno from Borno as the deputy Speaker.
Femi Gbajabiamila scored a total of 154votes out of 182 accredited voters while Dogara scoring 3. Dogara and some of his supporters staged a work out sensing defeat in the air.

The astute and strong political jaggernaut from the South West is always beating the naive, hate filled and tear rendering TANiods in the game. They can only rant and whine online like they did for their clueless kindergarten ext president. The real deal is matching on.

More sorrow in the home of PDP and their supporters tonight.

TINUBU MESSING UP PDP SINCE 1960. HATERS GONNA HATE BUT WHO JAH HAS BLESSED NO MAN CAN CURSE.

these eastern parts and failures despite all struggles, I think it is getting out of hand.

either awolowo or someone has cursed them

This is getting insane. Nigeria is now a tribal game zone. Meanwhile this is not the job Nigerians want done. We need ppl not based on relationships, but based on competency n due process. We r simply going to the whirl .....

Senate Presidency next up after the House of Reps straw poll.

Lawan and Saraki goes head to head.

High level politicking when Reps from Kano abandon their own to vote in Gbaja.

Great day for Democracy.

How United State Speaker is Selected


The House of Representatives elects the Speaker of the House on
the first day of every new Congress and in the event of the death
or resignation of an incumbent Speaker. The Clerk of the House
of Representatives requests nominations: there are normally two,
one from each major party (each party having previously met to
decide on its nominee). The Clerk then calls the roll of the
Representatives-elect, each Representative-elect indicating the
surname of the candidate he or she is supporting.
Representatives-elect are not restricted to voting for one of the
nominated candidates and may vote for any person, even for
someone who is not a member (or member-elect) of the House at
all. They may also abstain by voting "present". [3]

Note that it is stated that the political parties made the decision of
who to contest ahead of time. And each party only present one
person.


APC is doing the right thing

Gbaja had 154 votes to Dogara's 3 out of 184 accredited voters only 160 voted while 2 were voided or abstained.

Dogara and some of his supporters left the venue before the commencement of the poll saying they didn't know a poll was gonna take place.

Its a done deal.

Look for the next available basket and fill it with your tears.

The opposition will be given minority role to play so don't cry much.

PREMIUM TIMES gathered that the Consolidation Group, comprising members loyal to Mr. Dogara would also carry out a parallel primary at a different venue.

Tinubu about to destroy what he spent years building, I laugh in kafanchan.

BAT says that he knows he is ugly, therefore he flies at night. Another victory for Jagaban of Africa Bola Ahamed Tinubu aka BAT.

This coming 4years looks promising and rewarding for his labour of 'love' years past.

What is tribalistic in an election?

If you dont know, Gbajabiamila was not handpick but voted in by the majority today in ICC. This is election and not tribal selection.

I wish in best of luck
