London, Lagos, Kaduna, rallies: Peter Obi successfully disrupted Nigerian politics – Omokri admits

Reno Omokri, a socio-political activist and staunch supporter of the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Atiku Abubakar has admitted that anyone who belittles the supporters of Labour Party candidate, Peter Obi, known as Obidients, is not politically astute.

Omokri, a major critic of the LP candidate stated this while commending the Obidients over their rallies in several parts of the country and London, United Kingdom on Saturday.

DAILY POST reports that thousands of Nigerians on the Independent Day, staged rallies for the Labour Party candidate in several parts of the Nation.

Kaduna, Bauchi, Edo, and many parts of Lagos State, including Festac, Lekki, Ajegunle were shut down on Saturday by Obi supporters who are predominantly youths.

Reacting, the former presidential aide said in a post on his verified social media handles that Peter Obi has successfully disrupted politics in the country.

According to him, “The simultaneous Obidient rallies at Festac, Amuwo, Lekki, Kaduna, and other towns and cities across Nigeria, was AMAZING.

“They are a great achievement and anyone who tries to belittle them is not politically astute. It is not just the sheer number of attendees. Imagine the logistics behind organising people at different ends of the nation. Commendable. Very commendable.

“While Obi will not win in 2023, he has successfully disrupted politics in Nigeria. Take Kaduna state. On August 15, 2022, Nasir El-Rufai boasted that Obi won’t get “two hundred persons on the street.

“Today, we saw close to 2000. Yes, a lot of them are persons of Southeastern origins. But for one man’s ambition to mobilise them in such mesmerising numbers is something to be admired. Politics without bitterness should be encouraged”.

Reno... You never see something yet.

Be calming down for surely Peter Obi is the incoming president of Nigeria Insha Allah.

Is now becoming obvious to you that Obidient movement cannot be written off.

Nigerian youths are 100% ready to disrupt the APC and PDP political structures that has held the country to ransom.

A New Nigeria is coming

It's still commendable, at least he can use that to negotiate with any political party for political slots. Is not easy to pull such followers. The logistics, money etc.

Reno is gradually waking up to reality

#OBIDATTI2023#

Make him just begin dey write congratulatory message to Obi

If he has disrupted other permutations, he may as well disrupt the elites believe that he can not win. As it stands today, anything is possible.

Hin own day just dey break

The Obi-Datti movement keeps growing in leaps and bounds. You will be playing the Ostrich to deny this unstoppable silent revolution.

His boss (Atiku) is a wise Politician and thus making frantic moves to reconcile aggrieved party members.

Unfortunately for him, it's a too late. He is welcomed to support Peter Obi though

After endsar that was when I believed if the Nigeria youths want something and have common goal towards achieving it, they surely see it to the end..

This generation youths got strong head...if they tell you enough is enough they will follow it up till the enough get enough.

This time we've common interest like the end Sar wave and we are going to put our choice there which majority have agreed to make Peter obi the next president of this country come 2023...if by chance this old hags feel they can manipulate it or them 30k urchins thinks they can play the rigging game..then I pity the fate of Nigeria going forward...may what is befalling Imo state not befall Nigeria.

Amen

God1000:

Reno knows the truth from day one , he's just a bitter bigot , a witty manipulater , even from this particular acknowledgment you can see he's trying to play the tribal card to make it look like only Igbos are attending these rallies across the country , he wants people from other regions to try and challenge the Igbos in their regions

Keyamo Warns APC.
Akeredolu verdict: Danger ahead, Keyamo warns APC

By The Nation On Jul 29, 2021

Wednesday’s Supreme Court judgment, which ratified the victory of Ondo State Governor Rotimi Akeredolu, has thrown up a major controversy over the legitimacy of Governor Mai Mala Buni as the All Progressives Congress (APC) national caretaker chairman.

Yellow Page mobile
The Yobe governor was appointed after the removal of elected Chairman Adams Oshiomhole on June 16, last year for an initial six month period, which has been renewed indefinitely.

Three justices of the Supreme Court – Justice Mary Peter-Odili, Justice Ejembi Eko and Justice Muhammed Saulawa, endorsed a minority judgment.

The dissenting judgment was read by Justice Peter-Odili: “I do not agree with the majority judgment,”she said, noting that the APC, by Article 17(4) of its constitution has provided for how its affairs should be managed and what offices its memebrs could occupy at a time.

Justice Peter-Odili added: “This Article draws strength from Section 183 of the 1999 Constitution. Therefore, when the second respondent (APC) put up a person not qualified to author its nomination by virtue of the provision of Article 1z(4) of its constitution and Section183 of the 1999 Constitution to do so, that document has no validity, and thereby void.

Minister of State for Labour and Employment Festus Keyamo (SAN) in a statement last night on the minority judgment, said it had grave implication for the ruling party.

He said the party risked being destroyed “from top to bottom” by the judiciary, if it ignored what the Justices said.

“We cannot gamble with this delicate issue. The time to act is now,” he added.

The senior advocate, who said he was offering his “professional bit to the party,” explained that: “The little technical point that saved Governor Akeredolu was that Jegede failed to join Mai Mala Buni in the suit.”

He added: “Jegede was challenging the competence of Buni as a sitting governor to run the affairs of the APC as chairman of the caretaker committee. He contends that this is against Section 183 of the 1999 Constitution, which states that a sitting governor shall not, during the period when he holds office, hold any other executive office or paid employment in any capacity whatsoever. In other words, had Buni been joined in the suit, the story may have been different today as we would have lost Ondo State to the PDP.”

He then warned: “Any other person affected by the actions of the Buni-led Committee will henceforth, not fail to join him in any subsequent case in court. These include any subsequent election matter in any part of this country and all the APC congresses that are about to hold. The Supreme Court has just weaponised all those that would be aggrieved by the APC Congresses to proceed to court to challenge the competence of the Buni-led CECPC to organise the Congresses and national convention.”

Keyamo said the APC should terminate the plans to hold its ward congresses on Saturday.

In recommending what to do, he advocated the National Executive Committee (NEC) of the APC should meet urgently and reconstitute the caretaker committee to exclude those holding executive positions.

He said since “we cannot vouch for the legality of any NEC meeting called by Buni now,” the safest is to get two-thirds of NEC members to sign an invitation to summon a NEC meeting”.

The alternative, according to him, is for the Board of Trustees, which includes the President, to be activated to organize a national convention in line with Article 13 of the APC Constitution.”

A former national secretary of the Labour Party (LP), Mr. Kayode Ajulo, said: “The provision of Section 183 of the 1999 Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria (as amended) is unambiguous to the effect that “The Governor shall not, during the period when he holds office, hold any other executive office or paid employment in any capacity whatsoever.”

“As a former National Secretary of Labour Party, I am quite aware and it is unassailable that the national chairman and the national secretary are the alter egos of a political party chartered with the day-to-day running of the party.

“It is, therefore, incontrovertible that the continuous stay of the governor as Chief Executive Officer of the All Progressives Congress runs contrary to the provision of the Constitution and as such may be an albatross on the party, as all he had done before would be null and void, including the nomination of candidates within the period of his so-called leadership of the party.

“It is apposite to assuage and hint the leadership of the party by reminding same of the decision of Lord Denning of over five decades in the case MACFOY v. UAC LIMITED (1961) 3 ALL E.R where the learned jurist held that: “If an act is void, then it is in law a nullity. It is not only bad, but incurably bad. There is no need for an order of the court to set it aside.”

“Whichever way this issue is being tilted, permitting a governor of a State to hold another executive office may create cravings in some governors to become the state chairman of their political parties as being recently tinkered by some of them.”

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) described the split decision of the Supreme Court as a verdict that Buni cannot continue to lead the APC as Caretaker Committee Chairman.

The PDP spokesman, Kola Ologbondiyan, said it is an aberration for Buni to serve as Yobe State governor and chairman of the APC at the same time.

Ologbondiyan said: “That is totally an aberration of the doctrine and dictates as established in the APC Constitution as well as the 1999 Constitution as amended.

“We insist that the process that led to the emergence of Governor Akeredolu was, and remains a violation of the APC Constitution as well as the 1999 Constitution.

“Section 183 of the 1999 Constitution states that no governor should hold any other position in any capacity, apart from the office of the governor. As you know, this was the major ground upon which we went to the Supreme Court”.

Vote wisely.

Mikano & Urchins in pain

Reno is a big fool

The idiot should know that both APc and PDP will not win southern kaduna.

Saying obideients in kaduna are mostly from South eastern origin is living in denial

Reno the unstable man

Peter Obi supporters no longer care about Reno as his attacks had been promoting Obi indirectly same with other paid social media people defending Atiku and Tinubu , rather PO supporters are now working towards a free and fair elections. Even a blind man knows PO is winning

LieNo OMockery is socio political what?

masterchi:
Reno is gradually waking up to reality

He is shifting ground so that when Obi wins, he won't be called a fool for being against the people. The belle infrastructure activist will dump Atiku before January when it becomes obvious that Obi will win with a landslide.
