Excellent move. I hope his colleagues will follow suit.

Maxymilliano:
There's something called 'attribution', when you copied someone's opinion ot thoughts.


What you posted is lifted from the facebook wall of Richard Akinnola.

A good number of us do not care where or from whom the post you quoted was lifted from all we know is that he help shed light on the issue of discuss for those of who were initially confused.

These women are BEAUTY PERSONIFIED.

GOD please have mercy on me ooooooooooo, but i feel this woman or her media aides are lying about the state of her health because I do not understand why the news of her alleged cancer has to come out now, all the while she was in office we did not hear anything about cancer or no cancer. Well me feel she's looking for soft landing.

Dragonking:
The illiterate president cannot keep to these promises..All i see is failure from baba one chance.

Even if the illitrate President fails, it will make headline because his predecessor who claims he is a Phd holder failed.

Arrant nonsense. Only haters of the Lion of Ubima and the General of common sense revolution will believe this crap and poo story of Wike.

haconjy:
I guess there is a reason for it....
what will happen to the house now...
its the agreement....it was built by tinubu...
and it will turns to builders owner..
I expect your abusive wordssss....
but pls think of what will happen to it...

Marina state was not built by Tinubu, it was what former head of states used as their official residence when Lagos was the capital of Nigeria.

Fayose was forming Jean-Claude Van Damme before now, little did we know he is a weakling and a coward. Oshisko

[quote author=frisky2good post=34238260]Who launched the first attack on the press? Have you forgotten he banned AIT?

[/quote
Point of correction, President Buhari's security aides barred AIT from covering Buhari's event and after it was reversed by the APC, President Buhari gave a stern warning to his aides never to try that again.

Uncleodi:
I wonder if this could happen during Jonathan's administration, yet he was called clueless.

Very soon! Very, very soon!! Nigerian will dot the "I"s and cross the "T"s


Freedom of press cannot be denied.

It was during Jonathan's administration that a journalist who works with Punch was detained for taking pictures of GEJ mansion, where is the press freedom in this?

ocelot2006:
With what weapons?! The Nigerian Military is a disciplined Force, BUT it lacked the necessary TOOLS and TACTICAL SKILLS to handle this insurgency. That's why the Isrealis, Russians, and lately South Africans were brought in. That's why we turned to Russia, Ukraine, and the Czekch republic for much needed arms when the Americans blocked our bid to do so. And these arms aren't bought off the shelf just like that like a new car in a show room. Delivery takes time long after a request is made.

Yes I know delivery takes time after a request is made but not after six years

ocelot2006:
He did nothing to stop them?! Bros, we are talking about an INSURGENCY, not police can dernier oh. If you think it's that easy and can be countered overnight, then ask the Americans, British, Russians, Pakistanis, Indians, Isrealis, Sri Lankans, Ugandans, and Kenyans about their respective experiences and timeframe within which the succeeded. Yet we expected miracles from GEJ? Oh well...

BUT WHAT HIS ADMINISTRATION DID SIX WEEKS TO ELECTION WAS WHAT WE WANTED. IF HE HAD DONE THAT FROM THE START, BOKO HARAM WOULDN'T HAVE GAINED GROUND AT ALL NOT TO TALK OF TAKING OVER CITIES.

FROM GLORY TO GLORY

Nonybb:
The Lion of Ubima have spoken

That was what you intend typing

ocelot2006:
Is that so? One question: where these murders and displacements by Boko Haram done in GEJ's name? No? 'didn't think so. 'guess your prayer is totally void.

But all these were done while he was in power but he did nothing to stop them until six weeks to election.

ocelot2006:
Yeah.....tell that to the families 800+ innocent Nigerians slaughtered in GMB's name.

Then your Jonathan also should be punished by God for the (1)thousands of lives lost under his watch, (2) hundreds of girls and women abducted under his watch and (3) millions that has been displaced.

Lilprincey:
Goodluck jonathan has the fear of God in him dats why i like him..

Even the devil has the fear of God in him but he still goes about doing evil just as outgone President Jonathan's administration did mostly evil yet claims he fears God.

candidbabe:
Gej my hero, I salute you for your courage, this is what buhari could not do in 2011,thus killing innocent. citizens and corpers God will definately reward you and punish buhari b/c there is no peace for the wicked .

Thank God you are not God, and for your information, God in His infinite mercy aint gonna punish Buhari but He's gonna bless and support him to the fullest.

Zellie:
APC is a Demonic party

While PDP is the devil in political party form.

gregg2:
Strongly supported

That sham of election. Where are our self-aclaimed activists? Where is Femi Falana? Where is Wole Soyinka? Shame on all of them!

Amaechi is a huge embarrassment to the Niger Delta

THE LION OF UBIMA, A HUGE EMBARRASMENT? NO
THE GENERAL OF COMMON SENSE REVOLUTION, A HUGE EMBARASSMENT? NEVER

CSTR2:
So the tinubu treatment is now legal abi?
Its no longer oppression by the PDP?
charlatan.
Look, wike controls rivers state and by extension most of Nigeria's onshore oil fields.
Why do you think APC wants rivers desperately?
I don't need to spell out the things wike can do that will tame the entire nation.

There is NOTHING, ABSOLUTELY NOTHING Wike can do to tame the Nation, he is a WEAKLING.

CSTR2:
What cobra?
Who will stop him when he starts to?
cowardly governors in the SW do it all the time.
Rivers state is Nigeria's largest onshore oil producing state.
If wike gets angry, your buhari is in trouble.

Let hm get angry and seize the funds and he will receive the Tinubu's treatment the kind OBJ gave him which is the FG won't release the LG funds of Rivers State.

haftob:
He will dissolve them and nothing will happen. I'm a living witness to the 'Kangaroo' LG election Ladoja did few days to his tenure expiration in 2007. Akala dissolved them immediately he assumed office and sworn him caretaker chairmen the 2nd day and conducted his own LG some months later.

Akala succeded because he was in PDP which was the ruling party then at the centre, thus had federal backing with all its machineries.

fairheven:
An how are you sure the so called chairmen wud not defect to PDP once Wike assumes office. In acountry were there is no true separation of power;by the time WIKE ceases the local government statutory allocation'they wud be forced to decamp and bid farewell to APC

Wike won't dare seize LG funds because he knows that that will mean stepping on the tail of the cobra.

2cato:
tinubu went to london to confirm if Buhari is seriously sick.
sick Buhari sick in london.

A seriously sick Buhari is 1 billion percent better than a seriously healthy jonathan

barcanista:
Honestly, I don't know what outgoing Governor Amaechi and his praise singers seek to achieve by deliberately creating atmosphere of anarchy and trying to give "a sham" a new look.

One Year No Council Election
For ONE YEAR Governor Chibuike Amaechi and the Rivers state Independent electoral commission deliberately refused to conduct Local Government election after the expiration of the then incumbents' tenure. Instead of election, Amaechi constituted illegal Caretaker Committee for each of the 22 out of 23 LGA.(http://nationalmirroronline.net/new/rivers-amaechi-dissolves-21-local-councils/)

"No 90 Days Notice"
Statutorily, the Chairman of RSIEC Prof Augustine Ahiazu is to give a minimum of 90 day notice to all political parties prior to conducting LG election in Rivers state. This is to enable interested parties to prepare, conduct primaries, campaign and mobilise for vote. Instead of towing the path of the law, Prof Ahiazu the RSIEC Chairman on April 27, 2015 announced May 23, 2015 as the date for LG poll, which fell short of the 90-day notice and clearly illegal.

PDP and Amachi's Reaction
PDP rejected the so called poll and drew the attention of RSIEC that the law mandates the electoral commission to give a 90 day notice. It then went to the Federal High Court, Portharcourt division to stop the charade.

Amaechi on the other hand justified the RSIEC charade without recourse to the law. From his statement, it was clear that he was acting a script.

(www.punchng.com/news/amaechi-defends-risiec-says-lg-polls-can-hold/)

Court Adjourned, Orders Status Quo Be Maintaing
PDP approached the Federal High Court to restrain INEC, RSIEC and Rivers state government from conducting the charade. The Rivers SIEC, APC and Rivers state government were hell-bent on the charade, they ran to Court of Appeal to challenge the jurisdiction of the Federal High Court in hearing the suit filed by PDP. Justice Lambo Akanbi of the FHC adjourned the matter pending the outcome of the suit before the Appeal Court and rule that STATUS QUO ANTE be maintained.

INEC Complied With Ruling:
According to INEC Admin Secretary(Rivers), Mr Roy Oburu..
(www.punchng.com/news/inec-denies-releasing-rivers-voters-register-to-rsiec/)

RSIEC, APC And Amaechi Charade
Despite the court restraint and the non availability of voters register from INEC (which is statutory), Amaechi through his puppet Prof Ahiazu went ahead with the charade and wasted almost N3 billion of Rivers state's scarce resources. They Allocated phantom results to themselves and the Governor in a public display of shame went ahead to swear in the product of the charade.

The Hypocritical APC, Buhari and "Right Activists"
In their usual hypocritical manner, the APC, President-elect Buhari and self titled "Right Activists" refused to condemn this open rape of democracy and the deliberate ploy to cause breakdown of law and order by Governor Amaechi, the APC and Prof Ahiazu. Is this the kind of change that APC is bringing where impunity is made sacred as long as they are the perpetrators?

The 3W Question:
What is the legitimacy of conducting an election without giving the statutory 90 day notice to political parties?

Where is the legitimacy in going ahead with LG poll despite court order to maintain status quo?

Where is the legitimacy in conducting election without INEC voters register which is statutory? Which register was used for the charade?

Is Osinbajo inheriting Lagos State debt too?[/size]

Yes. Because Lagos State will be part of his administration's responsibility other states included.
