muami:are u saying facts shld b ignored simply because we want 2 grow up or doesn't dis North/South rivalry exist in PDP? We all don't want it bt it is there nd u cnt run away frm it. Soon, we'll get 2 the promised land. I want dat too. |

isquar3d3: Bankole is a goner. Looks like he has been used and dumped (unless he starts singing, and fast too). My focus is actually on Tambuwal. There is a reason for the overwhemling support - to protect their interest. |

isquar3d3: Simply means that Nigeria is getting matured politically. PDP is the ruling party and the offices are going to places where the PDP performed! That is how politics should be played. Also, I dont know what you mean by "SW is finished!" The SW deliberately voted for an opposition party because they were comfortable with it and the last time I checked being in an opposition party is part of democracy! |

D south east shld nt complain again. They'v got 3 top positions in government now. The SSG, deputy senate president and deputy speaker. Same wit d north west wit d V.P and d speakership. |
Re: House Of Reps Resumes Its Madness On This 1st Day - Elections of Officers by dayokanu(m): 5:36pm On Jun 06, 2011 |
I am so delighted with the happeneing in the Legislative arms of govt. That means the PDP is finally dead in the SW Thank You Asiwaju Bola Tinubu We are grateful for kicking out PDP, OBJ and his cronies from the SW |

muami:wen i say SW, i'm nt talking about dem as a region bt as it concerns their place in d PDP as far as positions in government is concerned. Wil they get d chairmanship of PDP? I sincerely doubt dat. |

Isquar3d3 wrote: how can d speakership b d rightful position of d south east. SE already has d SSG and d deputy senate president. Make odas chop small abeg.# My guy you miss my point. It would have been easier to for SW to have the SGF since it is not an elective position than the speaker since the SW PDP had a poor showing in the legislature. The SE with many PDP legislators in the house would have found it easier. But no biggie. The SE has accepted the SGF and moved on so OBJ loses big time and the SW PDP unrepresented for now. New horse trading has to be made to accomodate SW PDP which would have been unnecessary if OBJ had allowed the SE take speakership and the SW SGF unless they will now make the North to concede the chairmanship to the SW but it is unlikely since the Chaiman of the BOT is from the SW. MY OPINION. |

isquar3d3: Since when did second fiddle become 3 top positions? Can't you see? Because of the discrimination against Igbos, now we southerners will feel it. Nothing of high value/favoring the south over the north will be signed on our behalf. |

muami: If Zoning is dead, Why didnt GEJ chose a Southerner as VP? Or are you saying that based on merit, Sambo is the best man for VP position in the whole Nigeria? |
Re: House Of Reps Resumes Its Madness On This 1st Day - Elections of Officers by DEEHASAL(m): 6:03pm On Jun 06, 2011 |
dayokanu: The new power permutation will be intriguing!!!! I am anxious to see what SW will get in Ministerial appointments. |
Re: House Of Reps Resumes Its Madness On This 1st Day - Elections of Officers by Remii(m): 6:09pm On Jun 06, 2011 |
dayokanu: Don't mind the double speaking hippocrates. Even OBJ made it clear while closing GEJ campaign rally, that Zoning was alive and on, but GEJ's choice was for Unity of the Nation, as it was morally right and necessary to allow South South presidency at this time. |
Re: House Of Reps Resumes Its Madness On This 1st Day - Elections of Officers by dayokanu(m): 6:13pm On Jun 06, 2011 |
Well the Northerners have used the "Zoning is dead" slogan against us. Lets see how any SOutherner would get a post. Thank God the SW removed themselves from this madness and held tight to the ACN Thank you Tinubu |

We jst hope all these turns out well. |

Re: House Of Reps Resumes Its Madness On This 1st Day - Elections of Officers by jmaine: 6:26pm On Jun 06, 2011 |
dayokanu: Tambuwal won, not because of the Northern factor but because he appealed to the majority of his colleagues which consisted of North, South, East and West extraction . .and his major backers are from his PDP members who for once are standing up for themselves for what they feel is right despite threats from their party . . .Stop overplaying the North presidential grouse over zoning . . . Cos it's has been proven that no region can win any election on it's own in Modern Day Nigeria |
Re: House Of Reps Resumes Its Madness On This 1st Day - Elections of Officers by jason123: 6:33pm On Jun 06, 2011 |
This is just so funny! Zoning is dead yet GEJ chose a Northern as his VP? Zoning is alive yet the Senate president and PDP's national chairman are from the North? WOOW! 2015 will be a very very interesting year. 2015 will ask Nigerians the question they have all been scared to hear. That year will shake Nigeria to her very foundation! With Sambo waiting to over take GEJ (zoning is alive ), yet Fashola may want to contest as the next president(zoning is dead and we want merit ) and Ndigbo will want a shot at it (zoning is alive but was paused for 4 yrs ) . Funny country! |
Re: House Of Reps Resumes Its Madness On This 1st Day - Elections of Officers by isquar3d3(m): 6:34pm On Jun 06, 2011 |
jmaine:right bt i hope u r nt underplaying d opposition's influence in his electn. Mulikat got 90 votes. Imagine wat wld hav happened had d over 70 ACN members voted 4 her instead of Tambuwal like they did. She undoubtedly wld hv gotten simple majority(180+1). Bt u'r right. No region can stand on its own. |

Congrats to the new SPEAKER!!! |
Re: House Of Reps Resumes Its Madness On This 1st Day - Elections of Officers by jmaine: 6:43pm On Jun 06, 2011 |
isquar3d3: Not at all bruv . . . The quote below strengthens the influence of the opposition to his victory . . . jmaine: Just a brief summary of the quote above North = [b]CPC, PDP West = ACN majorly East = PDP majorly South = PDP majorly |

dayokanu: Sad you are missing the bigger picture. Nigeria sits on a tripod firstly and on a sextupod secondarily. Whenever that balance is tampered with, it normally has ramifications in the long run. Leave Tinubu out of this. |
Re: House Of Reps Resumes Its Madness On This 1st Day - Elections of Officers by dayokanu(m): 7:45pm On Jun 06, 2011 |

Meaning what? How does this affect the SW who chose to be left out og the PDP madness? We have tasted it and we spat them out Let other regions enjoy PDP |
Re: House Of Reps Resumes Its Madness On This 1st Day - Elections of Officers by Chyz2: 8:34pm On Jun 06, 2011 |
isquar3d3: Well The Igbos have the House of Reps Leadership as well, but he is from SS. I believe it is Tony Elumelu. That counts as a SS slot, i guess. Not that its that important anyways. |
Re: House Of Reps Resumes Its Madness On This 1st Day - Elections of Officers by isquar3d3(m): 8:48pm On Jun 06, 2011 |
Anyway, OBJ can conviniently say he's retired frm active politics so he is nt concerned. Any way we look at it, d SW has lost out in d power equation in d PDP. |
