Oti o, Mbanu. O worku nu nu

Fact !!!

No matter how APC paid goons such as Gbawe and co try to twist the truth

He just shot APC on the foot

Wonders would never end, but the God that will serve will always allow the enemies within to make mistake and shoot themselves on the foot just like Chief Akande have just done, the Nigerian electorate will soon find out the component that make up APC, bunch of self seeking bigots who have just come to deceive the people just to grab power at all cost for reason no more than to enrich themselves and their cronies, if PDP as we all knows is bad, APC is worst or anything worst than worse

No it was Tinubu that sold us. Stop the lies and propaganda.

Why did APC vote Tambawal over the Yoruba woman competing. Yet you say it is not about ethnicity but competency

You APC people are liars, hypocrites and not consistence.

wengerjay:
If a Yaradua cld reduce the fuel pump price from 70 naira to 65naira per litre and his successor,Johathan cld increase it astronomically to 97naira per litre.And if a Sanusi as a CBN gov and muslim northerner cld remove 100naira ATM charges and a Emefiele,the current CBN gov,a southerner added to the masses problem by reintroducing 65naira ATM charges.My fellow Nigerians,it is high time we allowed someone from the north to lead us,they seem to feel our sufferings more than our so called southern brothers,sentiments apart.

Its just a shame really. You have a point there

He don dey happen.

gboss4sure:
He will do what he did in 2011

which is sell Yorubas out to keep Lagos and get billions of Naira that he will share to his members on Nairaland and thugs.

The circle continues.

LOL Tinubu has already sold the SW out again for an oil deal just as he did in 2011.

Keep wasting you time enriching one family

APC and thugs. SMH

Thugery has now been legalised with APC. Look at Ekiti, Edo, Rivers, Lagos etc all full of thugs fighting here and there

This is serious, for a state like ekiti


APC members are thieves

Please I think sapm-bot or Afam4eva has ban alj harem. review and revert asap

collynzo2: So in essense, you are defending the man's piglike breeding?
Keep planning optimistically instead of realistically and see where it gets you.
Nigerians have been doing that for years, where has it taken us? We are a severely overpopulated country as a result.
How can people just decide to be breeding children hoping God will provide? Are they birds? How many people does that trash actually work for? Most of them end up giving birth to destitutes and criminals as children because they cannot take proper care of them.

so because he did not engage in politics to steal the nation dry , do drug or other illegal activities he has to be poor ?

Is the lives of the pets in aso rock worth more than the life of the man ?

Can you unban alj harem. Thanks mods

I guess it is spambot

Can I know why I was banned by Odumchi in the cultural section ? For laughing at an impostor ?

Spambot on Alj harem. Please unban. Thanks Mods

LONDON (AFP) – A Scotland Yard anti-corruption detective and three former officers have been freed on bail after being arrested in connection with suspected bribery involving a convicted Nigerian fraudster.

The 45-year-old detective constable in the elite unit was questioned on Wednesday on suspicion of providing information about fraudster James Ibori, a former Nigerian state governor, in return for cash payments.

Two private investigators and another man — all former officers with London’s Metropolitan Police — were held in connection with providing the money after raids at the offices of a private investigation company.

All four men were freed late Wednesday pending further inquiries.

The company, Risc Management, is believed to have worked for Ibori when he was being investigated by the force on suspicion of fraud.

But the Met has also confirmed that it has worked with the company in the past.

Ibori, who was governor of Nigeria’s oil-rich Delta State from 1999 to 2007, was jailed in April for 13 years for fraud totalling nearly £50 million ($78.5 million, 62 million euros).

Before becoming governor, Ibori worked as a cashier at a home improvement store in London.

A Met statement said: “The Metropolitan Police Service is investigating an allegation that illegal payments were made to police officers for information by a private investigation agency.”

BENIN—AHEAD of the July 14 governorship election in Edo State, Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, has lost a major financier in Edo North senatorial district, Chief Francis Alimekhena; former state chairman of the party, Chief Edward Sado and over 2,000 supporters of the party in Etsako East Local Government Area, who dumped the party for Action Congress of Nigeria, ACN.

Former Special Adviser to the President, Prof. Julius Ihonvbere, may also dump the party, following his rejection of the result of governorship primaries, which produced Gen. Charles Airhiavbere as the governorship candidate of the party.

Chief Alimekhena, who was received by Governor Adams Oshiomhole, the South-South Vice-Chairman of ACN and Campaign Director of Oshiomhole Campaign Organisation, Pastor Osagie Ize-Iyamu and others, at Agenebode, said he decided to dump PDP because of the party’s lack of vision for the people of the state.

Alimekhena and the former Deputy Governor of the state, Rev.Peter Obadan, expressed gratitude to Governor Oshiomhole for bringing development to their communities in Edo North, adding, “We are preparing Oshiomhole for a higher office because he has brought hope for the hopeless in Edo State.”

Addressing the crowd, Oshiomhole expressed appreciation for the decision of Alimekhena to join him in ACN, saying “we have insisted that this campaign will be based on issues. I am happy that this local government has produced leaders, who have fought for democracy in this country.”

@Beaf

Isn't there a difference between

"I am asking that all Presidential aspirants hold a televised debate with our party flag bearer"

and

"I think there ought to be a Presidential debate before general elections, as is done in civilized communities''

The first is a challenge, the second is an opinion.  

Are you saying Fashola requires a protocol to hold an opinion, especially one that is shared by millions of smart Nigerians?  

If someone else, let's say some Random professor from some Uni had made the same opinion, would it make any difference?

could you focus less on the individuals behind the remarks and more on the substance of the remark itself as well as it's benefits on the entire populace?

wrong, why would the current president debate with a governor, what civilized society does that

unless nuhu ribadu himself comes out as a presidental aspirant, then i see no reason why GEJ should debate with him, it is just a waste of time

moreover fashola wants to be boasting about his ability and tiunbu is using him

Beaf:
^
In ACN, it is Ribadu's place to do that, not Fashola's. There is decorum and there is protocol, both have been cast in the dirt by Fashola.

gbamm beaf very correct, my friend sorry for the misunderstanding lately

@all please lets be sensible here, is fashola the presidental candidate or ribadu

please reason here i think ACN is loosing its head here

i hope it works

jason123:
Who are these fo.ols that called themselves AD
Well, they are irrelevant in the SW anyway  so their endorsement only worth a piece of Akara and 1 ghana must go from GEJ . . . . foo.ls

jason123, they are not fools,.,. this people still hold political might is the SW

but as it maybe, i hope buhari plays his game right by merging with ACN and telling ribadu to rest

eku_bear:
AD is irrelevant in the SW, unfortunately. Or maybe they plan on rebuilding through GEJ?

dapo speak for yourself here,.,. AD according to my sources is still very relevent in the SW especially lagos where majority of them do not like tinubu

can anyone comfirm this message !!!
