major466:
A man who overthrew a democratically elected government and ruled through degree 4. A man who committed murder and gross acts of human rights violations. A man who fought political enemies under the guise of corruption but look the other way when his friends were involved (55 suitcases saga).
The man who call himself Buhari is not even fit nor is he qualified to run for any public office.

Olorun orun a bukun e, Oloye Ebenezer Babatope. I think Iyabo & her younger ones need to appeal to their father to stop ridiculing himself in d public all in d name of fighting Jonathan, before he finally extinguishes d prestige that remains of that family name (obasanjo). Unfortunately for d old man, he doesn't appear to have a good bond with his numerous kids.

Patiently waiting for his felow street boys, Amachi and co, to come and occupy the street!



this time, let the millitary learn how to shoot at sight!

People like u re fools. If tambua should b ur brother would u have prayed for his death?

Useless huuman being wt maggot like brain

Nonsense

Lagusta:
naturally, that should've been the best thing to do...

In fact, it would make me love APC more if tambuwal resigns honourably

It is very unfortunate that some Nigerians including public office holders are too lazy, to read the elementary sections of our Constitution, some of which are self explanatory.

Now, let us examine what Chapter V, Part 1 (Composition Of National Assembly) sections 47 -50 of the Constitution Of The Federal Republic Of Nigeria holds:


There shall be a National Assembly for the Federation which shall consist of a Senate and a House of Representatives.

48. The Senate shall consist of three Senators from each State and one from the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja.

49. Subject to the provisions of this Constitution, the House of Representatives shall consist of three hundred and sixty members representing constituencies of nearly equal population as far as possible, provided that no constituency shall fall within more than one State.

50. (1) There shall be:-

(a) a President and a Deputy President of the Senate, who shall be elected by the members of that House from among themselves; and

(b) a Speaker and a Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives, who shall be elected by the members of that House from among themselves.

(2) The President or Deputy President of the Senate or the Speaker or Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives shall vacate his office -

(a) if he ceases to be a member of the Senate or of the House of Representatives, as the case may be, otherwise than by reason of a dissolution of the Senate or the House of Representatives; or

(b) when the House of which he was a member first sits after any dissolution of that House; or

(c) if he is removed from office by a resolution of the Senate or of the House of Representatives, as the case may be, by the votes of not less than two-thirds majority of the members of that House.

So where did PDP find the supposedly "loophole" or authority in law, in asking Hon. Tambuwal to resign? The only option left for them, is to rally their members and see if they can muster the required number when plenary resumes in decemeber, in order to satisfy Section 50, subsection 2 C as highlighted above.

Anything else is calling for anarchy!

Don't let pdp deceive u folks

atlwireles:
When will SS govs get some sense. After 2015, Amachei will run away from Nigeria. The same people supporting you today, will be the same ones laughing at you. When will some of my people get some sense in this one Nigeria.

Have u forgot that d same presidency wanted to remove amechi as chairman of governor forum and was to be replaced by Jang?Jona didnt see amechi as his brother then. You think that amechi will forgive him easily? You think that amechi would forget the day madam patience tried to disgrace him by colecting microphone from his hand? We are all human beings. Pls leave amechi alone he's just trying to pay them back with their own coins. Remove sentiment many of us can't take half of what have been given to amechi. This life na gif and take
o

Amaechi God bless u for removing sentiment. I don't care where the president comes from. Give me another president from nigerdelta and not this bros jona who has lost focus. All he thinks about is 2015. Releasing thieves. Coruption in the highest order. I will welcome a disable as my president so far he/she will rule us well. No b this kind president wey b say na I'm wife dey control I'm brain.

2015: PDP Govs Confront Jonathan Over First Lady by Tbillz(m): 6:57am
•Demand assurances President’s wife won’t
determine their successors
THERE are indications that President Goodluck
Jonathan and governors of the on the platform
of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) are at
war over what sources close to the party
describe as “unwarranted interference in
political affairs” by the first lady, Dame Patience
Jonathan.
It was gathered that most leaders of the party
were not happy at the meddlesomeness of the
First Lady in clear party affairs.
A highly respected PDP stalwart said President
Jonathan risked protest votes from party
members to save the country from further
embarrassment by the First Lady.
The source who craved anonymity told our
reporter, “I have spoken to many elders in the
party and they said they would not vote for
President Jonathan because of his wife. Even
myself will not vote for PDP.
“It is not because we hate the president but we
can no longer cope with the overbearing
influence of his wife. So, expect among other
things protest votes against Jonathan by even
PDP members.”
The source added that at a recent meeting with
the president, some of the governors tabled the
issue of the president’s wife’s overbearing
influence in political affairs.
According to the source, the governors sought to
extract commitment from President Jonathan
that his wife should not impose candidates on
their states in 2015.
Buttering the argument, the source referred to
the scenario in Rivers State where Patience
Jonathan is leading a campaign to make former
Minister of State for Education, Nyesom Wike
Governor.
The source added, “The party elders are
watching with shame the macabre dance in
Rivers State by the First Lady. Recently, the First
Lady visited Nyesom Wike in his house in Port
Harcourt.
“In that televised visit, she held Wike’s hand and
placed it in the hand of Dr. Peter Odili. It is an
endorsement and it has never happened
before. That singular act is unbecoming of a First
Lady. With what she is doing in Rivers, we won’t
be surprised if PDP loses that state to APC”.
The source added that in the history of
Presidency in Nigeria, no First Lady was allowed
by her husband to desecrate the office of the
President the way Dame Patience had done.
“This is the first time a wife of the President
would be allowed by her husband to be this
powerful. It is shameful that Dame Patience has
the liberty to summon service chiefs, ministers
and top members of our party at will.
“Remember her meddlesomeness in the Chibok
girls’ saga how she called meetings of service
chiefs and parents of the girls and was shouting
at them, insulting them on national television.
“Where has it happened before? It was one
embarrassment too many for Nigeria. The First
Lady has brought the country to ridicule and
party leaders are not happy with her excesses”,
the source observed.
The source further accused the First Lady of
acting without seeking the permission of her
husband adding that she had made President
Jonathan look like a weakling.
“Nigerians are amused that she has no regard
for her husband. Imagine her recent resignation
as a Permanent Secretary in Bayelsa State Civil
Service. Before the appointment, she begged for
it and even her husband appealed for it.
“It was the appointment that even the last
Governor of the state, Mr. Timipre Sylva,
refused to give her. But when she resigned
because of her problem with Governor Seriake
Dickson, she did not tell her husband.
“She has been boasting to her aides and other
governors that she would ensure that Dickson
does not return and that there is nothing even
her husband will do about it. The President must
call his wife to order to stand a chance,” the
source said, adding “What we don’t understand
is why the President is allowing her to carry on
the way she is doing. I think there is something
the First Lady is using as a secret weapon
against the President that we don’t know. No
President has allowed his wife to be this power
drunk. What is happening is not normal.”
Mrs. Jonathan had in April this year paid a
solidarity visit to Wike in his Abuja residence,
saying her visit was to give him her blessings,
noting that the governorship aspirant proved
himself as a member of the federal executive
council.
She said, “I am giving you the blessing of a
mother. The blessing a mother gives to a
beloved son. Go and you will conquer. He is a
Minister that delivered while he served in the
cabinet. Wike proved himself and is ready to
serve in a higher capacity”.
The first lady further described the former
minister as a listening and respectful politician,
who heeded her counsel to drop his senatorial
aspiration in 2011.
“You listened to me and dropped your
senatorial aspiration. I pray God to protect you,
lead you and please go on with your aspiration.
“I have hand you (Wike) over to our father, Dr.
Peter Odili and the people of Rivers State. You
are going to Rivers State for the betterment of
all of us and to wipe our tears,” she stated.
Responding, Wike assured the first lady that the
PDP would emerge victorious in all elections in
Rivers come 2015.)

Amechi talked (“They tell you that you should not vote for these people, because they are Hausa people, they are Muslims, but the refinery in Rivers State was built and commissioned by Tafawa Balewa, he is a northerner. Shehu Shagari started NAFCON, Ibrahim Babangida commissioned it. IBB started the Eleme Petrochemical Company, Sani Abacha completed it. They are all northerners; they are all Muslims. NLNG was started and completed by Abacha and he is a northerner and a Muslim. Bonny NLNG, NDDC, Niger Delta Ministry were established by northerners.

“In fact, when Yar’Adua was alive, Niger Delta Ministry was working, Now it is only one item: East-West Road, and they say he (President Jonathan) is our brother. He is not my brother. My brother is the man who delivers on his services for me. If the President says he is our brother, let him call one project (his administration has embarked upon in Rivers State).”

Tell me what is not true here.

U re supporting jonathan base on sentiment whille some of u can't even eat once a day. I b yoruba man but if na hausa go lead me well am ready to vote for him and not this jona that deceived me the last time that he has no shoes and now we people who voted him in have no shoe while he has plenty shoes. God dey

Am at alagomeji. No blasting of horns as usual. Even danfo drivers said they love it like that today that they are complying. Chai. I love this peaceful environment

This post can't change my mind. Am a christian and not in support of sharia, but if it's the only way to arrest all these thieves led by our so called presido am okay with it. Setting thieves free everywhere just because he wants to rule till 2019. Why can't he just work and merit the relection? Nonsense

The president are we fools? Na wa oo. Even if u ve said it increased by 50% I wouldn't have taken it because I believed it's increased by 150%. Come out of the Aso rock. Go to states. Check under their bridges u will see nigerians living there. Even Garri and groundnut that people were living on b4 how many of us can aford it again? Don't worry u will win in 2015 as some fools are ready to return u. But I have one revelation for them 'nigerians will suffer more'. I know u will still take the fuel price to N150 under d guise of surep.prices of things will shoot up. Chai. I pray u don't get relected Mr. president. Amnt a party man. I don't care if it's pdp that will bring a president that will adress our suffering. Just know that there is God oo. I rest my case

One thing you people should understand is the fact that Keshi would not like to see his (Keshi) downfall and wining matches is what he would be judged with so if he's said Martin is old and that ihenacho is not yet ready let's leave him to do his job. They are not going to sack us if he eventualy fails. He will carry his cross.Pray for SuperEagles of Naija. Thank u
