Lol. From no Flag to just one picture...

When they take more than one picture, you would say they are photo sessions rather than real meetings.

Hope you slept well ?

If they can still take just one picture and put it on his twitter feed, I will come and post to apologise for not believing Ted Cruz took the guy seriously.

Remember I am talking about the Twitter feed of the persons these Biafran ministers are meeting up and down.

onuman:


Ahhh. So it’s turn by turn? Why then did Tinubu say it’s his turrn when he knew pretty well that it was the turn of the southeast to present a president for Nigeria; afterall, Obasanjo had used the turrn of the southwest?
You see why Tinubu is at the grab and run with whatever pleases him. See why Apata would not win when Tinubu is at the head with Mahmood Yakubu.

For APC, it was President Tinubu's turn as per the deal he did to merge his party with Bubu. The country had a chance to vote others over him and they decided not to.

For Ẹdo state, it was Esan's turn. The state had a chance to vote others over him and they decided to.

Two separate things, none of which was to do with Mahmood.

Broveens42:


Ok, I get it.....
Something like:
"The president, the vice president, the Senate, governors, your excellencies, distinguished house of reps members, the press, all protocols observed... I'm excited to meet BRGIE officials blablabla "

Not at all, just one picture with captions on his twitter feed, just one.

And maybe, but not as important, a statement in a post supporting the Biafran cause that he has now been convinced by the "Biafran minister" to believe in.

His career ended the day he had the audacity to start dragging artifacts with the Ọba (gha to kpere baba).

I am certain Ighodalo lost the elections when he allowed Godwin to take part in his campaign.

Ẹdo nor bi Kano, our father is not the one to be trifled with.

Useless write up, whether or not President Tinubu or APC people say "go to court", the courts have always been the place aggrieved parties in elections go to and that is enshrined in the constitution.

In fact, some go to court even when they have no sensible case to present, an example being Peter Obi and his merry band of charge and bail lawyers last year. That is what people should focus on, people like Peter Obi wasting the Judiciary's time with nonsense petitions like 25% in Abuja.

The real threat to free and fair elections in Nigeria is online bullying as perfected by Obidients. Let people that have a different opinion to you speak without fear of being cursed, abused, insulted and bullied. How is that so difficult a concept to grasp and practice?

colizee:
So annoying, we don't need their approval, or unsolicited advice or congratulations
They've never meant well for us as a nation.

So why are "senior Biafran ministers" currently running around capitol Hill taking pictures with various US senators?

Verydarkhearted:
No body from edo state should beg me for money cause I will not give.. let them manage that 10k for four years with their families.

OK Mr Dangote and Otedola combined sir, nobody from Edo state will beg you money.

Why does an LP loss cause so much imbecility amongst Obidients considering they should be used to losing by now seeing as it happens so frequently to them.

LagosFc:


You think everyone will be stupid by your blind support, because he is your tribesman and y’all are so desperate for Ibo presidency😂😂

I actually don't have an issue with Ndigbo wanting an Igbo president. It's the foolishness in thinking they can bully, harass and insult other Nigerians online to get that Presidency is what gets my goat.

The only way to Presidency for a Nigerian tribe is to reach out to others in a humble manner, Ndigbo online will soon learn.

You call Ndi North illiterates and Ndi Yoruba cowards for 4 years and expect them, come election time, to vote Ndigbo.

Dem go wait tire.

Broveens42:
BRGIE Finance Minister Ogechukwu Nkere had a meeting with Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX), an influential member of the United States Senate, to discuss Biafra and the BRGIE. Minister Nkere briefed the Senator on Biafra's progress towards independence, including activities such as the self-referendum, as well as the Nigerian government's persecution of Biafrans and ties to Islamic terrorist groups. At the end of the meeting, Minister Nkere handed the Senator the Biafra charter and Biafra pin.

I jus took a look at Ted Cruz's twitter feed, guess how many words he said about this meeting, less than one. Ditto for pictures.

This isn't a meeting, this is an expensive photo op session arranged by lobbyists.

This is clearly a case of "A fool and his money are easily parted".

Colin Allred is about to take Ted Cruz's seat anyway, the latter will have more time then to focus on his "beloved" Biafra.

I no fit laugh.

onuman:


How would Labour Party win when Tinubu with Mahmood Yakubu is in control?

How will Labour Party win when they are aware it was Ẹdo central's turn to rule but decided to field an "Edo South" person?

An Ẹdo South person that was not a member of the party 9 months ago and is not on ground in that same Ẹdo state.

This idiocy is all on labour party and nothing to do with President Tinubu or Yakubu.

I should produce proof for you? Am not jobless... Its all over the Internet....


Number of accredited voters lesser than actual voters... Only criminals do this

Good, I am sure if PDP query that PU, you can help them by forwarding it and it would be nullified.

This doesn't mean INEC are corrupt though, it is on the Returning officer.

Shattuck:
it's the Ronu folks who always assume anyone who criticizes Tinubu/Apc is igbo, I have been called igbo a thousand times, they are not the instigator of ethnic hate, I have been around the internet and paid attention to these discussions I can't vouch for every of their actions but the other group is definitely more hate filled.

I am not Ronu and have never voted APC but the only people, apart from you, that still complain about stolen mandates, drug lord etc are Ndigbo Obidients who are still party till today about elections.

I myself have been called Ronu, Àgbàdo, Yoruba Muslim etc simply because I try to get these people to see sense and move on seeing as elections are over including the judicial part.

fastseo:

What proof are u looking for? Inec, state electoral body are same. They use same template to organise their elections n give rooms for manipulation. Take a look at imo, Kwara, Enugu states election see the shame.. The governors influence the outcome.. U hear APC sweeps all. In Enugu PDP sweeps all. just a reflection of the party in power
Go n see south africa elections and take a look at the shame inec are organising.

I think proof is important, you wouldn't like to be sentenced for doing something you didn't if there was no proof against you so please accord INEC the same courtesy.

fastseo:


they are part of Nigeria's broader electoral system.

Different name but same template same structure, ssme corrupt individuals

The same template of rigging. Nothing different

Be that as it may, this is nothing to do with INEC. Don't drag them into what doesn't concern them.

If you have proof of rigging by the body (or individuals representing them) that conducted Imo state LG elections, you know exactly where to take them to.

hevlinotito:
Stop this craziness Edo did not shift any support base. Yesterday you agreed that you cooked up results and announce yourself as winner with federal might.

In just 24 hours you now believe that Edo people genuinely voted and shifted support base to APC.

What type of reality are you creating for yourself?

Have you got proof about the results being cooked up? If so, feel free to go to PDP to hand it over to them to take to court.

Why is it that in Nigeria, we make bold statements of election rigging without proof and expect people to believe it?

nairalanda1:


I am apolitical, but vote for the smaller parties come election. PDP and APC are not my people. Largely because neither of them seems to realize that Nigeria needs to be an exporter of produced goods to grow economically...na oil and how it is shared is their platform

Also they both have a lot of corrupt people.

But the thing is, young people in NIgeria, including those in PDP grumble about old men, yet won't put a strategy together to defeat the old men. Many of us won't join a party , run around making alliances, and use that to win power in the party and outside of it.

People like atiku have been in this business for over 30 years...that is why he is where he is. Many of us don't have the patience.


And it isn't our fault....people in their twenties, thirties and forties...(well anyone between 35-50 since presidency is barred to under 35)...are building their lives and familes. ANd e cost money to run for office.

Still, make we do something.

What a great post especially the third paragraph were you state the truth about the young not being ready to take power from the old politicians who wouldn't give you without you demanding and forcefully wrestling it away from them.

Same group of older politicians that have shown their disdain for everybody since civilian rule returned.

fastseo:
INEC is the greatest threat to Nigerian unity, development, peace and progress.


The current way they conduct election has failed to produce credible leadership...

Shame on all of u quoting me below

You realise INEC didn't conduct these election, right? Local Government elections are conducted by properly constituted state electoral bodies.

Leave INEC alone or at least endeavour to understand what is really happening before you start to make yourself look wan kind.

Newlymarried:


The President urges all those aggrieved by the election outcome to seek redress through the legal channels.

https://punchng.com/edodecides2024-tinubu-hails-apc-victory-commends-peaceful-election/

The President should have added that "They should take proof to court this time instead of the charade that Peter Obi and his charge and bail lawyers enthralled us with last year".

Shattuck:
it's not just about the oba's comments, generally they are the ones who carry Edo election for head, yet they tell other to stay out of theirs, maybe you haven't noticed it.

What I noticed about the results of the recent Edo gubernatorial elections is Ovbigbo showing their bitterness about Peter Obi losing to President Tinubu even after all this time by complaining about APC and INEC.

I also noticed that causes Ovbi Yoruba to fight back and defend whatever allegations it is they feel the need to defend.

Sadly, Edo state has turned into the latest battleground for their fight which has nothing to do with Ẹdo state.

Having said all that. You should not have initially mentioned the Ọba of Lagos in this thread and then start to complain when Ovbi Yorùbá responds. Ovbigbo would come now too (as they have a "special" relationship with said Ọba of Lagos) and the thread will degenerate.

Gistmedia10:

The charging agent, a young man, seemed speechless and struggled to provide any reasonable justification for his actions, standing silently as the enraged woman and other witnesses voiced their disgust.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WsyZDFN9sKA

The woman lacks class and tact, all she needed to do was call the boy to one corner quietly and correct his behavior.

Some women would shout and rant because they have been slighted, sometimes that approach is needless.

kedeojo:
Shut up your mouth, Edo can never be like anambra with so much insecurity and agbero syndrome. I don't know why igbos are pocknosing to what don't consigns you people. We don't have anything in common.

Sadly a consequence of "Benin is the headquarters of Obidients", how di see finish nor go happen?

Labour Party Candidate Akpata Blames LP Members For 'Selling Their Future For Peanuts’ By Working For APC, PDP

https://saharareporters.com/2024/09/23/edo-election-labour-party-candidate-akpata-blames-lp-members-selling-their-future

It was Esan's turn so this chancer should never have been on the ballot box in the first place.

Like one or two senators in Abuja, he jumped on the Peter Obi bandwagon, now he knows the kind of influence Peter Obi has in Edo state.

President Tinubu didn't even bother campaigning for Akpakomezer and APC won the state, shoe get size.

eldoradoxx:
Peter Obi is the first APGA Gov of Anambra. APGA is an entrenched socio-cultural/ political organization. It is like an Afenifere Party of Nigeria loosing Governorship election in the heart of Yoruba land. That is why Obi waited patiently to finish his tenure in APGA before he resigned and went to PDP because he knew that in Anambra Governorship , APGA is the only party, but for national politics, you need to leave home front and go for national Party. Anambra votes APGA for Governorship and any other party for national election. That is why Obi may not install any Governor through another party but will win 95% of votes from Anambra if he goes for any national election on another party. Anambra does this to protect their Governors from control of some politicians in Abuja like they did to Ngige etc.

So to cut a long story short, and I appreciate the time you have taken to explain the above, Peter Obi doesn't have enough influence in Anambra to help LP become a formidable force over there.

That is interesting to know.

BeeBeeOoh:


https://dailypost.ng/2024/09/23/edo-guber-damage-you-caused-will-haunt-your-children-peter-obi-tells-inec-others/

I have read this at least three times, what exactly is Peter Obi complaining about regarding the election conduction by INEC in the Ẹdo state gubernatorial elections and where exactly is his proof of wrongdoing by INEC?

We still haven't seen the election expenses he promised by the way.

Okortor:
Ondo, yes. But anambra, in their wildest dream......Apga or nothing for anambra till eternity!!!!!!

I am genuinely surprised that even LP will not be able to unseat Anambra based on your projection.

This might be a true test of Peter Obi's political relevance and influence.

Shattuck:
I should be the one telling you guys to leave Edo state alone, the Edo election you hardly see Edo people online it is usually the yoruba Ronu folks who have something to say, the election did not happen in Lagos, it didn't happen in ogun state but you una carry the matter for head in such a pathetic manner, yet when it comes to Lagos you'll say igbos and others should stay out of Lagos politics.

In a conversation about Oshio baba and The Oba (gha to kpere baba), you needlessly drag The Oba of Lagos in then start complaining that Ovbi Yoruba are talking about Edo elections.

Has it occurred to you that if you hadn't talked about their Oba, Ovbi Yoruba wouldn't be in the thread?

papyjaypaul:


When did Buhari say he won't contest because ANPP lost election


When did Atiku say he won't contest again because ACN lost election


When did Ojukwu say he won't contest again because APGA lost election

Even Falaye did not have problems because he lost as AD candidate and PDP swept the SW.

The analogy does not make sense. That's what the OP suggests

Please accept my apologies.

When you referenced the name of the other politicians, I genuinely misread the context you did so.

Quite frankly, the thread is needless and I guess is a counter thread for the ones that Obidients themselves needlessly raise.

MadPolitician:
... Tales of how buses were being loaded at Upper Iweka with hordes of igbo men and women heading to Benin to cast their votes for either the Labour party or the PDP, saturated the blogosphere. It would have been funny, if it was not serious.

At the bolded, I never saw this once. Has anyone got a link to an instance of this?

papyjaypaul:


What is the role of opposition

Didn't Buhari talk about the state of the nation under OBJ, Yar Adua and Jonathan He lost to each one of them. Tell me another thing.

Tinubu talked about the state of the nation before he became President. ACN and AC won/lost some elections and he talked. I want to really understand your point.

You asked why did the other poster reference Peter Obi instead of the others and I told you why.

Obi currently talks the most of the losing candidates by far, it makes sense that people talk about him the most currently and not the others.

There is nothing wrong with it. Bubu and President Tinubu are currently not opposition, what's your point?

Bobodee09:
Patiently waiting for anambra governorship election.

Since PO/LP is the only good politician and political party in Nigeria we are waiting for igbos in anambra to vote LP candidate next year.
LP must win anambra......thank God the obident family already hate soludo.

Igbos must show us all they won't allow and fight apga from rigging .....everything they are telling other tribes to do they must show and do it in anambra next year.

We want to learn from them since the rest of us sell votes and will suffer after not voting LP.

LP must win anambra and no anambra person must sell his/her vote during the election.

Mark my words, Peter Obi would have left LP by the time those elections come round.
