Demdem:

there were ALLEGED PLANS by the house to impeach fashola and in ur dumb state u believe Tinubu who is not even a member of the house asked his people in the house to impeach him right (by the way, its alleged not even confirmed).
Sorry bro but i dont think u are making sense.
Fashola is Tinubu's man. he has alaways been and will continue to be so. Long live the union.

THE Action Congress (AC) yesterday said there would be no automatic ticket for Lagos State governor, Mr. Babatunde Fashola in the 2011 general elections, insisting that the incumbent would slug it out with other aspirants during the party’s governorship primaries.
This is as hundreds of Lagosians yesterday stormed the Lagos State House of Assembly, Alausa, Ikeja to protest alleged plot by the law-makers and former Governor Bola Tinubu to impeach Mr. Fashola (SAN).
[size=14pt]The House had last Thursday set up a six-man committee to investigate alleged financial impropriety leveled against Fashola’s administration by a group, “The True Face of Lagos.”[/size]
However, chairman of the AC in Lagos State, Chief Henry Ajomale, blamed the allegations on mischief makers who were bent on distracting Fashola’s administration ahead of 2011 governorship election.
In an interview with Daily Champion Ajomale however ruled out any automatic ticket for Governor Fashola in the forthcoming poll?
Asked if Fashola would get the party’s ticket for a second term in office, he said: “It is very possible because we are democratic. You can’t just impose anybody on the members of the party. We will go through the primaries and if he emerges fine…
“Let us go through the process of primaries but I believe with the record he has now, I don’t think he will have any problem in scaling through the primaries.”
At yesterday’s rally, the protesters booed the Speaker, Adeyemi Ikuforiji and Ajomale for allegedly aiding the plot to impeach Fashola. They chided members of the State Assembly, urging them to purge themselves before accusing the governor.
The coalition of many groups, including the Lovers of Raji Fashola (LORAF), the Coalition of Youths for Good Governance and the Movement for Good Governance led by their leaders to Alausa to warn the legislators against any move that would jeopardize the governor’s return ticket, arguing that since the creation of the state, saying “Lagosians have never had it this good.”
Armed with placards with various inscriptions, including “Good governance must be sustained”, “Fashola carry go, don’t destroy the gains of continuity”, Solidarity for Achiever-Eko o ni baje;” “We say no to intimidation in Lagos; We know, who are Lagosians”, “Enough is Enough”, “Best man must continue and we have seen the scripts of the master being played”.
The protesters arrived the assembly complex amid heavy presence of Anti-Terrorism Squad (ATS), regular policemen and mobile policemen at about 11 am, where they were jointly addressed by Ikuforiji and Ajomale.
Addressing the irate Lagosians, Ikuforiji said the House has the constitutional right and duty to probe the governor, adding that the lawmakers were merely performing their constitutional duties.

2011: Pro-Democracy Rallies Turning Into Campaign For Fashola

LAGOS, June 30, (THEWILL) - Independent groups hooting for Lagos State Governor, Mr. Babatunde Raji Fashola (SAN) to contest in the 2011 governorship election have been taking advantage of pro-democracy rallies held to campaign for Fashola.
But the groups, which include Lovers of Raji Fashola (LORAF) Fans Club, Babatunde Raji Fashola (BARAFAS) Fans Club, Fasholamania Group and the Integrity Campaign Group, had claimed at different times that their activities were independent and based on how they claimed Fashola had transformed Lagos within three years.
Fashola also has not openly identified with any of the groups, though findings revealed that some of his loyalists in the State Executive Council and the Kitchen Cabinet have been meeting in camera with the leaders of the groups fine-tuning how the governor can clinch the Action Congress (AC) governorship ticket.


The latest of the activities of the pro-Fashola groups took place at the Onikan Stadium rally of the Save Nigeria Group (SNG) under the leadership of Pastor Tunde Bakare organized in collaboration with Coalition of Democrats and Electoral Reforms (CODER) to call for the cancellation of the existing voters’ register.

Nigerian Voice

Billyonaire: Am sorry sir if I punch a hole in your armour, but I have lived and own some stakes the states I mentioned and I can tell you more about the people and they average orientations. I dont know if you have even visited these places to be able to sound an unbiased conviction. I love Lagos and I live in Lagos, but truth be told, if I need a little more peace of mind, Lagos isnt the place. Akwa-Cross is the place.

anonimi:

If you have CONVENIENTLY forgotten (or simply want to distort facts) na your three pence be dat.
But please understand if all of us cannot be like you and the other Tinubu ACN propagandists. Permit me to tickle your memory a little with this thread, just one of the many on the matter at the time.

It included this extract:



Anyway, as the Ashiwaju of Area Boys don pay $5,000 to attend Obama's Democratic convention, he may have learnt that you don't do primaries for an incumbent who is performing !!!

Another clip from the period out of the usually scanty archives on Nigerian news:

one would have thought Ajomale would have been inside Tinubu's pocket
Again i ask u to reveal to all the direct tinubu's connection

alj harem: All these pro-ACN people please point out what ACN has done for us. Apart from one individual which is Fashola ACN can be categorised as one of the most corrupt Parties in Nigeria

En-massing wealth meant for common people to Tinubu. After Fasola, give PDP a chance so you can receive good goverance. Giving ACN Lagos will spell disaster for Lagosians and SWerners.

You would say I said it. Mark my words

dayokanu:

So Na only Fashola you see?

You no see Aregbesola in Osun, You no see Ajimobi in Oyo, You no see oshiomole in Edo, You no see Fayemi in Ekiti or Amosun in Ogun

All these ACN were wayyy better than what PDP gave us in Fayose, Alao-Akala, Oyinlola and Lucky Igbinedion

seanet01: Pdp laptops are increasing day by day

alj harem:

I have been to these states of recent and when PDP was there. THERE IS NO SIGNIFICANT DIFFERENCES. And with the way they are working, they don't intend to.

Monopolising Lagos to ACN would mean Tinubu can just pick and choose who he wants. It is not meant to be so, SW should open their eyes and smell the coffee. Let others do their second term as ACN governor but Lagos should go back to PDP 2015 so as to put ACN on their toes.

dayokanu:

I am from Oyo State and I can see the difference from when Alao Akala was governor

As starters we dont have NURTW thugs killing everyone in the streets of Ibadan

Its malicious and false for anyone to claim that in Oyo state for example there has been no difference

Lets go to Osun How can anyone see the road constructions going on and still claim there is no difference? Was the previous PDP govt blind to see that they needed road in Osun instead of taking loans for 6 world class stadiums?

And the way it is in every SW state

take dat[b:
]Nigerians will never learn their lesson[/b]. PDP has been saddled with the affairs of running the country for the past 13years with little or nothing to show for it. Its rather preposterous that the @Op will be yearning for the same party to the extent of suggesting to poach candidates from another party. ACN may not have risen to our expectation but there are other parties who are hungry to be given a shot at leadership to convince all, the only thing is to look for the right candidate amongst them.

kennytidistar: [seanet01]Pdp laptops are increasing day by day.

What about ACN 3310?
the truth is ACN has reach is peak politically and it has no option than to come down. ACN we loose three southwest sit including Lagos and Ogun come 2015. Mark todays date.

alj harem:

I don't know of Ogun but LAGOS STATE. YES THEY HAVE TO LOSE LAGOS if we what development. Fashola has set the pace, it is time we think and stop acting like goats with low IQ.

seanet01: Keep deceiving yourself. Pdp cannot win a single house of assembly in the whole south west come 2015.

alj harem:

You cannot be serious. Yes indeed Nigerians will never learn their lessons. Making a state a one party state is would spell disaster to any state, country or society. Go read history of Nigeria or even general history.

hathiba: the beauty of life is when u have a strong competition.I believe by now,PDP have learnt their lessons and if given another chance in SouthWest state, they would perform beyond expectations.

alj harem:

Thank you. It is refreshing to know people still think in the SW not just acting like sheeps

take dat: What do you mean by making a state a one party state? PDP governs 23 states of the federation while the other parties share the remaining 13 states, would you prefer that the other 13 states go the way of PDP? What you are proposing is an expansionist agenda. Why are you not complaining of PDP being the ruling party in the federal level since the advent of the 4th Republic? What we have now is a fair distribution except you'd like to turn Nigeria into a one party state, ACN may lose Lagos but it mustn't be to PDP!
