You can still pass your comments without unnecessarily sounding bitter and condescending. We have to learn to live with all kinds of people. We must learn to guard and manage our emotions; it's a vital part of intelligence and maturity.

Yes. Your points are carried. But has any court effectively proven those allegations levelled against Koro? NO.

Please, desist from insulting people. By end of this month, elections don pass!

First it was Election date that was shifted, heaven did not fall

Second, Obanikoro was successfully screened and return, nothing happen likewise.

Come March 28, GEJ will return as President of Nigeria, I bet you nothing will happen. If you like use scanner for voters and join it with reader for PVC.

Nigerians are just not wise, keep deceiving themselves. You think GEJ is making mouth that PDP will get 90% votes?

Save this page for future reference.
apc will lose the heaviest in areas they think they will win highest . Just wait and see

give me a very good reason why I shouldn't be ?does he have an court case against him? Does he have any corruption allegation against him? Is he a nigerian or not? So between tinubu and koro who is more corrupt?

The same reason why no court action has been instituted is the same reason why he is made a minister.
He is a full Nigerian
Yes, he has a serious allegation of corruption against him.
If tinubu is corrupt in ur eyes, will u be comfortable if he is made a minister?
This is not about APC or PDP, we are killing our National Conscience.

All of us( the youths) of this country, whether you support APC or PDP, our future is in our hands, if you think Buhari or GEJ will bring the needed change am sorry to disappoint you, we are all deceiving ourselves, until we all rise against these people, nothing good will come out of this country. I felt bad reading Obanikoro has been confirmed,more injury to my already wounded heart was reading an act that is condemnable being celebrated on nairaland.

The Nigerian Senate on Wednesday confirmed Musiliu Obanikoro as a federal minister, appointed by President Goodluck Jonathan, brushing aside allegations that Mr. Obanikoro played a key role in election fraud in Ekiti State.

Mr. Obanikoro was named recently in a leaked tape as a principal actor in the state’s governorship election rigging in 2014, sparking national outrage.

The Nigerian government has refused to investigate the claims.

The Senate approved Mr. Obanikoro’s nomination as a minister, Wednesday, after repeated deferments, despite protests from senators from Lagos State, Mr. Obanikoro’s home state, and other opposition All Progressives Congress, APC, who had vowed to stop the clearance over the Ekiti scandal.



As a former senator himself, the Senate allowed Mr. Obanikoro to “take a bow and go”, without answering questions, a privilege reserved for former federal lawmakers.

APC lawmakers responded by walking out of the session in protest.

Congratulations Senator Obanikoro for your appointment as a Minister for the Federal Republic of Nigeria once more.

APC should hide their heads in shame.

Power doesn't make noise, the more the noise the less the power.

I can see u are a sensible person to talk with. In the first instance ,koro has no corruption case against him. Please verify ur record. He is one of the few nigerian politicians who has been able to play his game smart and clean. He has never indicted or taken to court. Gej cannot rule nigeria according to the whims and dictates of apc. Let the rule of law takes its normal course ,if apc thinks there is a reason why koro shouldn't be made a minister let them go to court. They are the ones presenting someone who lied under oath about his academic background and when ppl were shouting what was apc response? They said anyone can go to court .

the same way we are insisting that GMB should clear his certificate Saga is the same way we are saying that Koro should answer the allegation about his shady acts in ekiti as heard on the released tapes.
This is not about the party,its for posterity.
The opposition's voice anywhere is for record purposes, for those that will ask questions in future.
Some of the people in that meeting in ekiti apologised after, what has koro done?
He rather wanted to threaten us into quietness.

Likewise GMB,show me GMB's friends(Tinubu, Amaech, Atiku,Rochas) etc and i will tell u who he is. Birds of a feather flock together. Both PDP and APC are all the same,they are all corrupt. so u guys should stop preachin change. because with the likes of Tinubu and co, we cant have that change.
They are all guilty of one form of corruption or d order.

There was a reason why GMB did not choose Amaechi as his running mate even though Amaechi was really a favoured candidate. It was simply in response to public opinion that Amaechi is dubious.

However much can't be said about Jonathan who seems to be under a very strong voodoo spell that leads him to ONLY choose and retain dubious characters in the most exalted positions. That my friend, is the difference between both candidates.

The decision to have Obanikoro confirmed wasn't his to take alone! His statement that he would not preside over a chamber where the tradition that predated him would be destroyed despite popular opposition to it is anti-democratic.

What popular opposition? How do you define popular?

koro has no apologise for anyone ,he has taken sahara to court because he believes he has no case to answer. Why has buhari refused to pproduce his certificate ?he said he will produce it before the 14th of feb ,he didn't and he was given another 6weeks grace yet nothing. Apc strategy seems to be working well on ppl and ppl are gradually forgetting about it ,does that make it right. When it comes to pdp issues people start talking about posterity but when it is apc matters ,everyone keeps quiet . 90% of those shouting sai buhari are in lagos ,we shall see if lagos will determine who rules nigeria

.

The power to choose a vp candidate for GMB did not rest on GMB's hands (forget the media jamboree), it rested on Tinubu's hands. Tinubu had other politically expedient reasons for choosing Osinbajo.
