Tinubu is from SW, sama as Gbaja, Shettima is from NE, same as Lawan, where does LP comes in here?
I'm not saying Labour Party representatives are going to be given those posts. What I'm driving at here is if Labour Party had not given them a tough fight, Elrufai wouldn't have worked so hard for Tinubu to have demanded such compensation which according to some sources, Senate Presidency or Speakership is going to South East to pacify probably Obi's people.
So, Lawan and Gbajabiamila wouldn't be retaining their seats as Senate President and House Speaker respectively?! Wow! Peter Obi's tsunami has changed all narratives politically in Nigeria.
In a country where there is functional police force, this kind of issue would be the simplest to handle because the account to which all these funds were transferred must surely be traceable and the culprits captured regardless of whether the fund must have been immediately withdrawn by them(the robbers) or not. But unfortunately, in this country, nothing tangible would be heard of it eventually.
Esoresor: This man is inexperienced , Lagos is not for the inexperienced. My observation, he should thread carefully as well. Don’t quote me to say nonsense, I’m entitled to my opinions.
Of course you are entitled to your foolish opinions!
Ndlistic: This Video Shows The Moment LASTMA Officials Were Captured Begging Lagosians For Forgiveness Ahead Of the Governorship and House Of Assembly Election.
The Governor should shut up and keep his condolences for his people. Where was he when the deceased was languishing in pain of sickness calling and shouting for help? How much would it have cost the state Governor to fly him abroad for possible surgery! May thunder fire whoever should have helped Fadeyi when he needed it and is now sending needless condolences to his family!!! Let people that matter in the society be celebrated when they are alive and be helped when they call for it.
I think what the Judiciary needs right now is a legal settlement of powers or a round table talk with the Executive because I don't see the essence of Judiciary in our current democratic government after all no vital judgement given by the Judiciary has been strictly and fully obeyed by the power drunk Executive. Judiciary has been rendered null and void by the current administration and it should be a great call for concern. For how long are going to live like this in this country? If Buhari is ridiculing our judicial system like this, what do you expect of Tinubu when he probably gets hold of power being a product of the ruling power drunk party? We are in a great mess in this country!
In every bad thing Buhari has done to this country, I give him credit for this electoral palava even though some adjudge it as a scam, he has been able to create some sorts of fear into particularly most of the political office holders who are seeking reelection judging by their current actions all over the country aimed at wooing electorates into their sides resulting from fear of losing at the ballot.
ChinemeremFidel: As long as he is from Ekiti I gat NO RIP Tinubu should give him that
I think the management of this platform needs to start conducting psychiatric examination for particularly people like you before they are allowed to be part of us because I see no iota of sense in that gibberish that you wrote. Many of you are so stupid that you choose to follow some Nigerian politicians sheepishly, forgetting that all of them are the same nonsensical and selfish people. People like you who are devoid of brain tend even to have problems making rational choices in choosing reasonable political leaders.
I know INEC is not perfect but the fact remains that they have changed the face of election to a wonderful extent in this country and that is why we are witnessing things like this. No matter the shortcomings of INEC in the just concluded general election, the fact that some prominent politicians lost their strongholds is a testament to the fact that we are getting there.
brutustech: Gbadebo Rhodes-Vivour, the gubernatorial candidate of the Labour Party, made a derogatory remark on Twitter about Pastor Enoch Adeboye, a highly respected pastor and leader of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, in response to his compliment to El-Rufai during a visit. This tweet has generated widespread outrage and debates about the importance of respectful discourse in public conversations.
Although some supporters of the Labour Party have defended Rhodes, citing his right to free speech and claiming that his tweet was simply expressing his personal opinion, a significant number of people, particularly the elders, have condemned his language. They believe that insulting a revered public figure like Pastor Adeboye is unacceptable and disrespectful.
Furthermore, they see Rhodes' generalization of Yoruba people as those who are known to "lick ass" as a derogatory comment, that insults the entire Yoruba clan
Gbadebo's remark is not only harmful but also has the potential to escalate conflicts. It undermines the fundamental principles of civility, tolerance, and mutual respect, which are essential for a healthy and functional society. Making derogatory comments about someone with a differing opinion about others creates an atmosphere of hostility and division. Moreover, as a Yoruba descendant, Gbadebo's comment is both condescending and disrespectful. It demonstrates that he lacks regard for others, which disqualifies him from being a suitable leader.
Notable elders in Lagos state have expressed their opinion that Gbadebo is not fit to be the governor of Lagos state due to his lack of respect. Therefore, Lagosians require a leader who can provide good governance, promote respectful discourse in public conversation, and work towards a society that values civility, tolerance, and mutual respect.
What has that got to do with his ambition? The worst for him is to loose votes coming from Baba Adeboye and his die hard lovers.
minks: It is common in Christian circles to observe that whenever Pastors or other church leaders are rebuked or criticized openly for their errors, some members will rise up in their defence. They often use the Scripture, "Touch not my anointed and do my prophet no harm," to try to cover up the sins of their church leader. But are men of God above criticism?
Scripturally, no human, including men of God no matter how highly placed, is above criticism. The higher one climbs spiritually, the more exposed they become to satanic attacks and this is the main reason these men of God should be made to be more accountable and transparent in the work that has been committed to them.
Moreover, men of God are also humans and are capable of making mistakes and also need correction from other Christians who may notice these mistakes that may not be apparent to them. This is exactly what Paul did when Peter got hypocritical with the Jews as we see in the scripture quoted below.
But when Cephas came to Antioch, I opposed him to his face, because he stood condemned. For before certain men came from James, he was eating with the Gentiles; but when they came he drew back and separated himself, fearing the circumcision party. And the rest of the Jews acted hypocritically along with him, so that even Barnabas was led astray by their hypocrisy. But when I saw that their conduct was not in step with the truth of the gospel, I said to Cephas before them all, “If you, though a Jew, live like a Gentile and not like a Jew, how can you force the Gentiles to live like Jews?” We ourselves are Jews by birth and not Gentile sinners; yet we know that a person is not justified by works of the law but through faith in Jesus Christ, so we also have believed in Christ Jesus, in order to be justified by faith in Christ and not by works of the law, because by works of the law no one will be justified. Galatians 2:11-16 (ESV)
We see Paul rebuking Peter sharply for his hypocrisy not minding Peter's position in the church. He criticized Peter's pretentious disposition in the presence of everyone and we didn't see anyone defending Peter's sin or feeling bad that their leader was being criticized publicly.
The word of God says that open rebuke is better than secret love. Every true man of God would love correction and will not be defensive when corrected. In the same way, true Christians will never feel the need to defend sin no matter who is involved.
The question itself is, "who are men of God?" Is there man of God at all? If there is, how can he be identified? What is the yardstick with which a man of God can be measured?
Iyorchia Ayu is Devil's mole in PDP! Imagine, if that idiotic chairman had let go of his position as agreed for peace to reign, the story would have probably changed for PDP. Look at the exploits made by Labour Party even within a very short period! Nigerians are waking up from their slumber truly.
Aufbauh: Hate him or love him Nyesome Wike is a man that knows his onions. A go-getter that has no time for inanities. He has a mafian mentality as he kills quickly and thoroughly.
He supported the two weakest candidates Obi and Kwankwaso with logistics, opening reprimanded the runners up Atiku but quietly gives his all for the eventual winner Tinubu.
Wike has my kind of mentality.... ' in all you do in life, win! E get why. Others can go to court, babalawos, pastorenuers, imams etc but WIN at all cost by any means. In the end you'll control all the Principalities.
Wike indeed is a political guru! How on Earth was he able to do this; separating PDP Reps and Senate and APC presidency! If you dare Wike, you are playing with your political career. Good job to Wike! Welcome Southern presidency!!!
What is the essence of the Chapel and the Mosque inside Aso Rock when obviously all the JPs and Alhajis are nothing but fake ones.
We have countless number of JPs and Alhajis in Aso Rock and other states of the Federation every time yet, Nigeria has been in disarray since God knows when!
Mahmud the criminal must be tracked down & made to explain how he came about the figures he was dishing out in Abuja.
The security agencies must be made to explain how & why voters were chassed zo go home on election day...
The supreme court governor is a devilish Thief'nubu lackey who jeopardized the electoral process in Imo state...
Thieves
Have you forgotten your angelic Peter Obi is the one indicted here? What has Tinubu got to do with the fraud of Obi? These blindfolded obidients won't stop to amaze me
Akwamkpuruamu: I understand the joy of a father sharing something worthwhile with his son.
However sharing or presenting a stolen property is a shame and disgrace
All politicians are thieves. This is just a case of the stronger thief getting ahead of the weaker one. Whichever way, we must have a president among the three prominent kleptomaniac politicians gunning for the presidency and Jagaban had been chosen by Nigeria's destiny. All we need do now is to hope for a better, progressive and prosperous Nigeria under Tinubu. Thinking that the mandate will eventually be given to one's other preferred candidate is going to be a pipe dream.
