PoliticsRe: Ondo 2020: INEC Unveils Full List Of Governorship Candidates, Deputies by alfredilly: 12:58am On Aug 01, 2020
Sammy07:
hmm, true sha.
If I check the politics of SW since 1960.
Ondo and Ekiti doesn't follow the pattern of other SW states mostly.
Dunno why.

The rest of the SW may be in apc while Ondo or ekiti will be in PDP. And vice versa.
You don't really checked well. During the 60s and 70s, Ondo were a keen adherent of Awolowo politics. In fact, in 1979, Ondo gave the largest vote to UPN despite smaller in population.
.The 1993 during MKO Abiola, Ondo state played a leading role in June 12 movement with Femi Falana, Late Pa Abraham Adesanya and Gani Fawehinmi. The AD in 1999 has it's support base I South West and the presidential candidate that lost to the Northern and Eastern candidate of Obasanjo was Olu Falae, an Ondo man from Akure. So what are you saying. It was Mimiko that came and changed thing a bit
PoliticsRe: Akeredolu, Lucky Aiyedatiwa Visits Tinubu, Sanwo-Olu In Lagos by alfredilly: 12:38am On Aug 01, 2020
OndoFirstBorn:
Some politicians United against Governor Akeredolu under a group called Unity Forum. Their plan was to present a candidate against the Governor in the primaries so that they can remove him for personal and selfish reasons best known to them and them alone. Governor Akeredolu defeated their candidate, Olusola Oke with a social distancing result in the recently conducted Ondo APC Primaries. If Agboola, Jegede and other persons should unite against Aketi, they will be defeated again. Aketi is a man with uncommon grace.
You should be ashamed of judging Akeredolu success through his victory in indirect primary. If he's confident of his popularity within his party, why was he scared of indirect primary.

Listen, the best chance of PDP emergence is APC giving a return ticket to Aketi. His defeat will be too heavy.

Akeredolu is only doing this to get cheap popularity. This is exactly why the man must lose the election. He playing on people intelligent rather than concentrating on meaningful impact.

Governor Akeredolu is totally committed and dedicated to his promise to moving the state from Civil service driven economy to Industrial driven economy. More Photos.
Ondo first born and Akeredolu Yahoo Yahoo performance. Why is this man specialize in creating false image on social media? Actually, the people of the state don't buy his lies but who are his target. From Araromi-Ibeju Lekki road, to sea port and now bitumen exploration, Aketi is setting precedence propaganda.

Going to the fact around the bitumen, this deposit has been discovered over 30 years ag. In fact, successive military government had payed visit to the sight with nothing done about extracting it. The government of Obasanjo visited the sight in 2002 and established a commission to see into refining it. All through the first term of Agagu tenure, the bitumen project was a well talk about agenda during campaing, but fact began to emerge later that the biggest obstacle to harnessing the resources was the high cost of refining which wasn't deem economica. Why is Akeredolu lying to gain cheap popularity?

PoliticsRe: Ondo 2020: Eyitayo Jegede Wins PDP Primary by alfredilly:
APC just lost Ondo state. I have said it earlier and it's a common knowledge to anyone living in Ondo state that the prayer of most PDP member is that APC commit the blunder of giving return ticket to Aketi. With this, the loss will be massive.

How can they stupidly return someone who isn't accepted within his party? APC members in the state are disgruntled about the governor. He came to Ore few days ago and member denied him a warm reception. The place was as dried as desert.

The governor is also not popular for any reasonable performance in the state. He's only busy hyping little achievement on social media while a large part of the state is suffering monumental neglect.

Why should APC give return ticket to someone who has committed a cardinal sin within the party. With Olushole Oke, even PDP member will be jittery. The thing about Oke is that he is from Ondo south where PDP has his strongest base. The majority of rep member and the senator are PDP members thanks to Aketi anti party activity during the election. PDP membershave been praying against OKe emergence and their prayer is answered.

Another odd against Aketi is that Ondo south are fond of giving block vote. They don't spit votes across party. Most of their votes are one sided. Oke being an Ilaje man from the south would have rallied the southern loyalty..

You forgot to mention how the Glaziers family's money bag bought Howard Webb for your darling Man Utd...

You think it's coincidence that Man Utd premier league trophy triumph stopped just about the same time Howard Webb retired..

Don't you also wonder that despite Ferguson 26 years as a Man Utd coach he could only win 2 champions league??.. I guess he couldn't influence UEFA board like he did Webb and English FA..
Your knowledge of football is just as empty as your skull. Before glaizer came to Man utd in 2005, has Alex Ferguson class of 92 not won it all with 8 premier league? And to attribute Fergie united achievement to Webb. When did Howard Webb join premier league officiating? 2005 for you empty skull

And you talk about 2 champions league as though as some kind of little achievement? After English club were ban from playing in Europe in between 1985- 1990, no premier league club won the championship league for over a decade. Man united was the first club to deliver the champions league in modern era in 1999. That earned Ferguson the knighthood.

And to even think Man united isn't one of the most consistent team in Europe under Ferguson shows how inexperienced you are. When united lost in champions league second round to Mourinho FC Porto in 2004, it was said that was the first time Man united fail to make the quarter final in 13 years.

You think winning 2 champions league in a lifetime is a child play, tell me when last Juventus won it. Barcelona despite their history only had 1 champions league till 2006.

If you don't notice man united consistency in champions league, you are probably blind. For a team that made 3 final in four season, you must be a clown.

At least this generation is not blind we have history and we know the grudges of our fathers against each other. The collaboration between the SW and north in 2015, I never really supported it. Be it as it may, we move on , we are not blind if the SE refuse to support SW we wont hesitate to play smart politics.
But I believe we have to act like the big brother trying to unite the SE and SS together make the north central believe in theirselve and be pro south. Instead collaborating with core less civilized north. I don't like the kind of tinubu led smart politics, it shows the Yoruba's as pro north instead normal agreement. And I've always want osibanjo or fashola to be president coming 2023 but Tinubu would not go the oomoluabi way of keeping us blameless, he'll want to contest and some Yoruba's would have choice but to support him.
The same Tinubu hold his own when Igbo were romancing Hausa at the helms of Nigeria affair. He remain in opposition for more than 12 years without allies at the top. Any pdp sympathizer is crying foul when Tinubu politics assume national dimensions is only being unprincipled. Mind you, I don't like Tinubu. He is one of the modern day corrupt Nigerian leader.

I was still very young as at 1999 but I heard it was two Yoruba @ the forefront and SE voted against SW Yoruba choice. So obasanjo supporters are North and SE/SS , SE don't usually support SW, I strongly believe they have to show some kind of support most especially now that our generation are more friendly and our children are closer to each other
If you believe modern day SE are more friendly with SW, you are living in delusion. This people have an axe to grind with Yoruba and the sentiment has been passed from generation to another. The craftiness is however that they pretent to love by claiming Yoruba favour hausa alliance while in real sense, they prefer a nothern man than Yoruba.

It's not that Yoruba had sin grieviously against the Igbo, the motive is that Yoruba are the only tribe constituting hinderance to their dream dominance of Nigeria. Hausa may be in power but Igbo don't see them as competitor because of the widespread illiteracy. Their hatred for Awolowo is premised on the fact that he liberated Yoruba from Azikiwe and contributed hugely to their education.
PoliticsRe: Sowore Celebrating Buhari’s Victory In 2015. Reno Omokri Shares Throwback Video by alfredilly:
Sammy07:
Normally the north and Yorubas we don't like each other, especially the Fulanis.

The relationship just started in 2015.
Yoruba and north have no special relationship, APC is a national party. Igbo are just making a fuse out of it because they detest a political arrangement that has a grassroot western presence.

PDP was seen as a northern party in 1999 despite feilding a Yoruba candidate in Olusegun Obasanjo. Yoruba preference was Olu Falae of AD, but the Igbo embraced the northern choice and forced him on Yoruba. AD won all of western state but still lost the presidency.
.
Only Tinubu sustained AD four years later as Obasanjos plot to install PDP in South west worked through. Tinubu sustained Lagos despite every attempt to hijack it. By 2007, AD transformed to AC and then begin the mission of retaking south west. Tinubu genious was at the fore. By 2011, the entire south west has fallen back into AD structure.

The quest to wrest the central from PDP took a boost when ACN merged with Buhari CPC to give PDP a tough challenged. By then PDP has had 16 years as the ruling party in Nigeria and the gain were not enviable with corruption, unemployment and terrorism holding sway. The defeat of PDP came in 2015 April general election and for the first time, a party with historic Yoruba grassroot took over the reign of power.

It is easier to see why the Igbo hate Tinubu and APC more than their problem. Any discerning person will see that it is born out of their hatred for Yoruba.

For years Igbo has had a history of aligning with the north. In the first republic Azikiwe and northenr party went into alliance leaving only Awolowo in opposition. Same with second republic. Even as recent as 93, when MKO Abiola was the nations favourite, Igbo embraced the Fulani man Tofa who was reject even by his own.

If this report of the disqualification of governor Akeredolu by his party screening committee is true then it can be assumed that governor Akeredolu shot himself on the foot.

He refuse to cross over to the PDP he was comfortable with the fact that he had a SEMI GOOD RECORD WITH BUHARI and to some little extent Oshiomole too except for Tinubu who had his own candidate for governor in Ondo state.

THROUGHOUT THE TRAVAIL OF GOVERNOR OBASEKI OF EDO STATE, GOVERNOR AKEREDOLU NEVER UTTER A WORD EITHER IN THE SUPPORT OF OBASEKI OR OTHERWISE.

He want to be SEEN TO BE POLITICALLY CORRECT BEFORE HIS FULANI SLAVE MASTERS.

Now that the chips are down AKEREDOLU should now STEW IN HIS OWN JUICE.
Even if he cross over to PDP, they won't feed him as their candidate. That is how bad his acceptance is within the state. Akeredolu isn't loved and he has no grassroot support. Why is he afraid of direct primary in a state where you have absolute control unlike Lagos governors. Even Obaseki was confident of winning the primary and APC could do is to disqualfy him.

I don’t see Akeredolu winning the general election. He has lost the support of the party so I don’t get how he will pull through during the general election. If he’s as strong as you’re making it appear, he won’t be scared of direct primary against 11 other candidates. I mean, why will an incumbent governor be scared of contesting an election where only members of his party will vote?

Before he became governor, APC won the presidential election and all senate seats in 2015. He became governor and the party lost the 2019 presidential election, two senate seats and several house of Reps and assembly seats.

Except APC find a way to conduct the primary without taking side with Akeredolu, the party will explode in the state. A forceful imposition of Akerdolu like they are trying to do will backfire. The party should conduct a direct primary and allow the most popular candidate to emerge. If not, majority of APC members will work against Akeredolu during the general election. He will get a dose of what he did last year.
Thank you my brother. Akeredolu has been rejected by the grassroot APC member in Ondo state. Any attempt to return him will amount to a disastrous imposition. Why should a sitting governor be afraid of direct primary. Even Obaseke wasnt afraid of direct primary in Edo and Oshiomole camp have no option than to disqualfy him.

As it stand, an indirect primary is illegal in Ondo as the state APC has no democratically elected leader. The party hadn't conducted a Congress in almost four years of Akeredolu. The current set of leadership are the loyalist handpicked by him. That was the reason why one of the strong governorships aspirant, Olushole Oke declared that the party is factional in Ondo. An indirect primary that returns Akeredolu will spell doom for the party.
