Your stupidity is astonishing. Can't you make your argument without calling on the Igbo?

The north with over 35 years of ruling Nigeria has not made them better than any State in SE or SS. Polluting Nigeria with almageris and claiming to be Majority those not add to the economy. Why are some people soo primitive and this narrow minded.

The Igbos don't give a sh*t about rulling ONE Nigeria so back off you worthless piss of shi* and the rest of the morons who think like you

Impeachment: Fayose sends royal fathers to beg Tinubu


Embattled Governor of Ekiti State, Mr Ayodele Fayose has sent two first class traditional rulers to meet the National Leader of the All Progressives Congress, (APC), Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu.


[b]Sources close to Irohinodua hinted that the traditional rulers who left Ekiti State this morning were mandated to meet with the Oba of Lagos, Oba Rilwan Akiolu who is expected to lead them to the former Lagos Governor whose political tactics continue to overwhelm the nation. The governor of Ondo State, Dr Olusegun Mimiko was said to have met with Asiwaju few days before the election pleading with him to forget and forgive his misdeeds having seen the inevitable failure of his party, the Peoples Democratic Party, (PDP) at the March 28 election. But it was too late.
“We are on a peace mission. Governor Fayose has asked us to meet with Oba Akiolu who should open the door for us to see Asiwaju Tinubu. We know there are moves to impeach the governor, our role as traditional rulers is the look for a constructive way to end the crisis. If the Governor will be impeached, we do not want him to be disgraced again for the second time in office”, one of the the first class traditional ruler told our correspondent on Sunday.
The royal fathers are currently being lodged at a high-rate hotel in down town Lagos and are expected to meet with Oba of Lagos later today who will take them to Tinubu later in the night.
The royal father who pleaded anonymity said the governor ‘is not arrogant. He has been misunderstood. We agree he made some mistakes, but there should be forgiveness and then Ekiti can move forward.” When asked if their mission was to stop the impeachment, he said: “We want a peaceful resolution of the crisis. We want Asiwaju to intervene and give Fayose a save landing.”
Mr Fayose was on Friday served with impeachment notice by the 19 legitimate lawmakers who want him to respond to allegations of gross misconduct within the next seven days. Reliable sources told Irohinodua that President Goodluck Jonathan is not interested in Ekiti State any longer.
“The President has achieved a landmark when he congratulated the APC Presidential candidate, Mohammadu Buhari. He does not want to see any other thing that will cancel this goodwill,” a source at the Presidency told Irohinodua this evening. The source said that President Jonathan actually holds the view that Fayose’s recklessness and tactless political moves were partly responsible for his failure at the national leve[/b]

zimoni:
I don't support his impeachment. They should let him finish his tenure. I believe he's learnt his lessons.

Lobatan.

Jorussia:
I am a very staunch supporter of GMB,but,i don't support the impeachment of fayose.I believe he should be forgiven. SAY NO TO POLITICAL VENDETTA.

CASSAVABREAD:
Lets say Dangote is given a ministerial seat and then His children are sighted Flexing and Blowing cash, someone would just conclude that He has stolen money as if He was BROKE before the appointment. With or without being a minister, the Maduekwe family has money and they can very well spend it as they wish

mmsen:
I have no political affiliations of any kind but the EFCC is not apolitical, never has been - they move when they are told to move.

Tinubu is too well connected to be investigated for the Lekki toll gate scam and the various relating land deals.

Nigeria has a Freedom of Information Act brought in under the Jonathan administration that is applicable on a Federal level but so far cannot be applied on a state level, hence why Fashola refused to disclose the inner workings of his treasury when a request was made - the fear being that Tinubu and Fashola would be exposed.

anonimi:
Based on the experience we have had for five years under Jonathan's federal administration, the judiciary has grown significantly more independent at the federal level.
Do you dispute that fact

Should we not ensure that it continues that way?

mmsen:
There are many credible and competent Nigerians, the world over the problem is that politics naturally attracts a certain element.

You attacked Jonathan and claimed he is corrupt (without proof) but the nature of Nigerian politics is that most people involved have been involved in or have benefited from corruption. Unless Jonathan went outside of the realms of politics and found those with no political allegiance would he have found those without stigma.

Tinubu is largely responsible for the APC win - is he less corrupt than those that you named?

Truckpusher:
Shattap your dirty mouth and stop denying your poor profession.

Who wants to be a camera man in a third world country like Nigeria and in their late 30s.

You think we don't know you?

Omo! we know the ashawo joint wey you dey block sef.

A camera man? a job that an 8 yr old child can do for free.

go take some useless photos for your useless propaganda and take your peanuts.

Yeye man.

Truckpusher:
Shattap your stinky mouth.

You're an Alausa camera man ......what a poor job to have in sub sahara Africa.

Keep uploading pictures to launder APC's image in Lagos - after the job you'll still remain one angry hungry man.

chukwudi44:
Stupid new.If Akpabio is corrupt, Tinubu is the father of corruption

anonimi:
And everything about Buhari spells sainthood and competence not so?

Truckpusher:
Why are you always replying that Alausa camera man?

dunkem21:
You would just have left me alone when my only comment was ..

.."Sauce?" ..

anonimi:
Buhari has NO power to jail anyone as a democratic president!
FACT!!!

Instead of these baseless rumours he should prepare to fulfil the socio-economic change promises he made to which he will be held accountable except he is truly the agunmaniye- tall but dull!

dunkem21:
It doesn't change the fact that this tales by moonlight exists only in the imagination of APC.

LIES! ..ON AN EASTER DAY!

dunkem21:
@aresa, I don't want to dissect the storyline further because IT IS A LIE! ..else I would have asked for the explanation of the guys returning to Akwaibom "empty handed".

Did they drop the bribe money with Tinubu's aide?
Your party tried to slander Tinubu's image without knowing it. They should work smarter.

dunkem21:
They know the APC with propaganda. Na so dem tell us say GEJ tell Tinubu to come and head interim government.

Why did no newspaper carry this special news

Bros, we don big pass this fairy tales na ..

dunkem21:
Sauce, indeed.

The APC should do better than spreading lies and engaging in online propaganda.

Happy Easter!

dunkem21:
Sauce?

The Akwa Ibom State Governor, Mr. Godswill Akpabio, has said that no Nigerian will like to go to jail without committing crime. Akpabio, who is the Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party Governorship Forum, said this at the PDP presidential campaign rally holding in Lagos. He said that in the past many innocent Nigerians were jailed for offences they knew nothing about, adding that Nigerians should therefore not vote for a party that is threatening to repeat the ugly past. According to Akpabio, the alleged missing money from the treasury has been shared by all the governors. He alleged missing money from the treasury has been shared by all the governors. The governor said the alleged missing money was a propaganda tool created by the All Progressives Congress. He said the money which was about 55bn was shared because of the needs of the people in their states.

Gov. Akpabio begs for soft-landing

[b]Sends Prince Akapbio to Lagos with $.5bn to negotiate deal
The week couldn’t have ended on a worse note for Chief Godswill Obot Akpabio, the executive governor of Akwa Ibom State. Following the victory of Gen. Muhammadu Buhari in the presidential election of March 28, the governor took a fright because of the record of his administration in corruption, political assassinations, record bad governance, and began to look around for a way out of the noose that is tightening around his neck. In Nigerian lingo, this is called a search for soft landing.
The irony here is worth noting. While Akpabio strides around with swagger and boasts to please his followers that all is well and that he remains fully in charge and that he will deliver Udom to the Hilltop Mansion, he is actually wracked by fear and is secretly plotting his escape from justice. Thus, like most coward dictators, he is goading on his followers to perdition while clandestinely scheming to save his skin and that of his family.
So it was that after a kitchen cabinet meeting of his wife and brothers, they decided to reach out to Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, national leader of the APC. A well-oiled team armed with $500,000 in cash was dispatched on Tuesday this week to Asiwaju’s house in Ikoyi, Lagos.
What made the week to end in such a life-threatening heart-break for Akpabio distraught is that this special exploratory/negotiating team returned to Akwa Ibom today (Saturday 4 April) empty-handed. They could not secure any access to Tinubu. They were immediately told to be on standby and return to Lagos Monday.
The team, which was led by Prince Akpabio, a cousin to Governor Akpabio, included Ime Uwah (brother to Enobong Uwah, commissioner for environment, and Emmanuel Enoidem, commissioner for special duties. The consultant for the soft-landing project is known simply as Kunle, who supplies cars to the state government and the Akpabio family.
Kunle’s role in the project is to recruit someone who can help to work out access to the APC national leader. Their first target for that role was Mr. Ben Akabueze, an Ibo who is holding the economic planning and budget portfolio in the Lagos State government. The team later changed its mind and went for Mr. Wale Edun, former commissioner for finance under the administration of Tinubu as Lagos State governor.[/b]

CHESSBOARD:
I voted for Buhari But I will vote for Jimi Agbaje.... we need to make democracy competitive.

CHESSBOARD:
After this election this is when the real politics starts..... So yorubas connive with the North to push away a minority that lays golden egg, ok SMH

CHESSBOARD:
Amaechi and Tinubu are the worst set of ppl to leave this country in their hands.... Buhari is a puppet, weak General even when he was at the peak of his military career will be worse in democratic setting where you have two of the worst Nigerian crooks by his side....You will quote me two yrs time if he mistakenly win this election

CHESSBOARD:
Is GEJ the Judege who pronounce him(thieffnubu) innocent.... or do you want him to act as a dictator as you labbelled him when he tries to do somethings right?

Medley:
thank you. I have read your venom. A man of high self-esteem, and high expectations. Little wonder why

Medley:
I have wanted to ignore some ignominy,of people that find it difficult to praise good deeds,but i don't want this to continue the path.

Time Frame for Conceding defeat

GEJ could have waited till 11:00pm or the next day or even until INEC issues the certificate of returen to GMB. He could have also waited for electoral tribunal and claim he was rigged-out(It's not oblivious that there are evidence of child voters,ballot snatching,card readers failures) is set-up,atleast to put up a show before he can be ousted out of office as an incumbent.

allay and douse tension of supporters

have you imagined what is silence might portend. His supporters,due to fear of what will become of them and their benefit from GEJs govt. would have been restless and this might cause uprisings.

The problem is that we quickly forgot what happened in 2011,or are we implying that people in the south-south have no emotional attachment to the election,that could make them perpetuate and wreck evil.

was GEJs concession,a decision of his?

Information from NTA news,in an interview with Abdusalam abubakar,he made it clear that when he called buhari,buhari told him that GEJ called him by 5:15pm to concede defeat. How do people think Peace keepers will not respect a sitting president and will persuade him to concede an election that the INEC have not declared the winner?

Is this Concession the first in Africa
some people have been praying,he rejects the result and wishing that riot springs up everywhere, but he disappointed their greatest desire.

Just be aware that any violence that springs up,during the elections or after the result have been announced that can't be traced to Jonathans statement or actions,he will not be held responsible,but he ensured that no life was lost due to the already heated result tension. This allayed fears and put it clear to anyone that intends to forment trouble that they are doing so not on his name or authority and they should accept the result.

He may not be the first as some of us want to suggest to belittle the action,but he still remain the first in our fledgling and nascent democracy. Its not too hard to congratulate him on this.

If GEJ had wanted to be in power for 8 years,have you ever asked yourself why he appointed Jega,was he mandated to? Even Jega recently declared that Jonathan has not ever told him to manipulate any result on his behalf. Though some will prefer to say he his clueless,this is not the case,he needn't change the hands of time,he want the voice of the people to be heard.
