Yes, I am a south westerner.
Yes, I am an APC supporter.
Yes, I have had personal encounters with Hon. Gbajabiamila.
But hell no, I do not support his Speaker ambition.
That man is obnoxiously arrogant and proud. Same can be said about Sen. Saraki.
I can bet that if these two men clinch the HoR Speaker and Senate President positions respectively, no common man will gain access to them, no matter how much they try. From experience, these men think all you want from them is money and they'll treat you like a dog after throwing a little sum at you. Except you are politically relevant to them of course.

That does not mean that the lawyers dragging Gbajabiamila to court have any sense in their head. They are as daft and clueless as......lipsrsealed

It has become a norm in Nigeria for us to praise criminals because they come from our tribe.
So I won't be disappointed to hear his kinsmen call him a hero undecided

I am not interested on who emerges Speaker. My own is that if the allegations are true, Hon Gbajabiamila should resign his House membership but IF false, he should be allowed.

Let the judge decide..

I think this will go the way of Buhari certificate issue. The issue will drag till this man would almost finish his tenure.There will be need for copies of the judgment served on him to be retrieved from the States.I think lawyers have now made themselves tools in the hands of politicians and this one, I guess won't fly.

My sister it goes beyond the allegation. The hand behind all this revelation and accusation is Bola Tinubu all in attempt to remove Gbajabiamila from the race.

Every single element in APC have a rotten past which stinks to the high heavens. (And they are claiming Progressive)


The war against Sen. Bukola Saraki and Hon. Gbajabiamila is to have a puppet Tinubu can control at will, moreover when the other human being belongs to everyone and to nobody.

Nigeria is sick and needs divine intervention.
