This is also a misleading headline done purposely to mislead the general public on the this issue of 25% in FCT!

This time around it was carried out by thecable.

Now , here's actually the authentic ruling on the matter & why it was done.

https://www.arise.tv/court-dismisses-suit-challenging-tinubus-inauguration-over-25-in-fct-fines-lawyer-n20m/

First and foremost,

- The case was dismissed because the court lacks jurisdiction to hear the matter.

So, the 25% in FCT petition was not dismissed because it lacks merits,it was simply that the court lacks jurisdiction to hear the matter.

You see how subtle some news outlets are in misleading the general public & how nairaland have become a farming ground to amplify such fake news ?


We will keep you updated on fake news & why you shouldn't trust those news outlets.

This thread has amazing potential. I however noticed that the news you've been debunking so far even though it's still early days are news that go against Obi. I hope you would also debunk fake news against other top politicians like Atiku, Tinubu. even state governors and their opponents etc.

this would prevent the thread from being branded "Igbo agenda" "obidots thread" etc and would make this thread the number one topic on politics

Exactly what I thought. He should extend it to other top politicians to at least filter fake news out from real news.

As in ehh, I’m suspecting him to be Anambrafirstson! Their delivery similar!

The issue of 25%, none of the news mentioned Lp’s petition.

Yari - I’m yet to see that on front page.

He’s just a dumbo jae..

He particularly mentioned that at the start of the thread... that the thread was meant to filter & counter any fake news peddling thread about HE Peter Obi. He mentioned that at the start. That's the sole purpose of the thread. You can go create a similar thread, debunking fake news about your candidate, if you're not comfortable with this

You still can't see why they are spreading the wrong narrative?

They are creating the narrative that the suit that was dismissed to stop Tinubu inauguration at the FHC was done because the 25% in FCT doesn't have merit,but the fact is that the suit was dismissed because the court lacks jurisdiction to hear the matter.

You still can see the huge difference between those two narratives ?

They are trying to make everyone believe that the 25% requirements in FCT have been dismissed by a FHC ,so the prayer made by HE peter Obi and his legal teams on that basis will also be dismissed because it doesn't have merit.

You still don't see the narrative & why thecable headline is misleading ?

They mischievously twisted everything peter Obi said just for propaganda.

Further more on fuel subsidy removal.

HE peter Obi have always made a stand he will remove fuel subsidy and how he's going to go about it.

His dentist and tooth analogy he made in his tweet was the all about how he's going to achieve that.
He is strongly against the sudden removal of fuel subsidy without putting thinks in place.

Here's a tweet he made some months ago about fuel subsidy removal.

But today,some mischievous news outlets are trying to make everyone believe he's backing Tinubu pronouncement of fuel subsidy removal.

This news just made nairaland frontpage that palmpay agent arrested a debtor.
To set the record straight,palmpay have come out to publicly ask those who go around making skits that their agents arrest people should stop.
In essence,palmpay agents don't go around harassing citizens ,any video of such you come across is simply staged.

Imagine a thread where someone gets to pick and choose which news is fake or real. This same person is biased towards Obi. Very funny humans on Nairaland.

Anyway, you and your minions can continue reveling in your foolery.
