The Peoples Democratic Party on Wednesday suspended another governor elected on its platform.
This time, it was the Sokoto State Governor, Dr. Aliyu Wamakko.
The party less than two weeks ago suspended the Rivers State Governor, Hon. Rotimi Amaechi.
A statement on Wednesday by the National Publicity Secretary of the PDP, Chief Olisa Metuh, said Wamakko was suspended because of his repeated breaches of the party’s constitution.
Metuh said the governor had failed, several times, to honor the invitations and lawful directives of the NWC, which suspended him on Wednesday.
The statement by Metuh reads in full: “The National Working Committee at its 338th meeting held on Wednesday, June 5, 2013, extensively discussed the state of the Party across the nation and its members as well as the repeated breaches and disregard to the Party’s Constitution by his Excellency, Dr. Aliyu Magatakarda Wamakko, the Executive Governor of Sokoto State.
“The NWC notes that on several occasions, Governor Aliyu Magatakarda Wamakko had ignored invitations and lawful directives of the NWC in this regard and has continued to show complete apathy to the affairs of the party and contempt to an organ of the Party.
“Consequent upon the refusal of the Governor to honour yet another invitation by the NWC to appear before it today, Wednesday, June 5, 2013 without any reason, the Committee, in exercise of the powers conferred by Articles 57 (3), 57 (7), 58. 1(c ),(h), (f) and 59 (1),(2), hereby suspends the Executive Governor of Sokoto State, Dr. Aliyu Magatakarda
Wamakko as a member of the party and refers the matter to the appropriate disciplinary committee of the Party.
“This is in furtherance of the determination of the leadership of the Party to enforce discipline at all levels within the Party.”

ADAOBI.....ILUPYL....GRAISE.

lekanolas: Katsina State House of Assembly has suspended its Minority Leader, Hon. Abdullahi Mahuta (CPC, Malumfashi), for accusing it of failing to perform its duties.

The suspension followed the interview Mahuta granted one of the national dailies where he accused the Assembly of not performing its functions.

The minority leader had criticised the state government over a budget implementation that was far below average.

Mahuta said the state achieved a meagre 37 per cent budget implementation because the state House of Assembly failed to perform its functions.

He said the lawmakers defeated the essence of democracy as they were supposed to checkmate excesses of the state governor but had failed to do so.

However, the Assembly, which is currently on recess, reconvened yesterday and suspended the minority leader.

The motion to discuss Mahuta’s interview was moved by Hon. Aliyu Iliyasu (Batsari, PDP) under ‘matter of urgent public importance’.

The motion received majority support from the lawmakers, who criticised Muhata’s interview.

The Assembly then referred the matter to its Ethics and Privileges Committee for further investigation and directed that Mahuta remained suspended, pending the outcome of the investigation.

gbadexy: First time I would be hearing this.
I guess it depends on the area one grew up.
One enters his toilet to pee alone and don't know if the person is supposed to spit on it.
I grew in lag, went to public school and I've stayed in nearly all the major division in lagos, visited friends ibadan and ogun state in school days and I've never heard or witnessed it.
Although I've heard of more ridiculous superstitions before, but I guess one is not common to southwest.
I would like to hear from someone there that does or know of this practice.

.Who ask u?

tomakint: It's kind of a habit while growing up, I don't know why I engage in it but I do see that people whom I grew up with always spit at the spot where they just urinated!

I remembered asking my uncle way back then that, why do people spit at the spot where they urinated? He answered, 'so as not to make it smell'!

Over the years, I have discovered that it is more of a superstitious belief other than what many claimed it used to work for!

Do you still spit on the spot where you urinates?

.Did u grow up in d village n untidy environment?

Desric: I support the abolition of the State and LG joint account and the approval of LG autonomy from the State, some people say the funds will be embezzled by the council Chairmen, I think its better that the citizens of the council knows who to hold accountable for their funds, let all tiers of Government grow together in the advancement of democracy in our nation. Secondly, the abolition of the SIEC is a very fragile one, I want to believe that the country will not be held hostage by the Government in power in the centre? the Abuja politicians should not hijack this nascent bill, Nigerians, we know how to abuse every institution, we just find our way to abuse it no matter how sacred. I pray this won't be another disaster by the NASS and the Party in the Centre. Only time will tell. For those clamouring for state creation being unable to meet up the criteria, this is just to show how ignorant and careless we are as a people, otherwise how can one go for a serious, monumental, constitutional request as crucial and important as the creation of a state without meeting up or having the idea of the detailed qualifications for such demands? Yet, these are men and women that we hold in reverence and very high esteem, men and women we must times refer to as "timbers and calibres", cream d la cream of our society, yet they can't fulfil such a simple task as small as to meet up required documents and signatures for the creation of states. This is to show why we are where we are. Clueless, retarded, visionless, and lawless individuals parading themselves as Leaders, maybe they thought its business as usual, where states are been allocated on the basis of sentiments rather than merit.

Guys for your information these posters did not originate from APC neither from Buhari.
The posters are the handy work of GEJ and PDP. The essence is to cause disaffection amongst APC by bringing out the posters with the inscription " APC consensus candidate".
The same guys that were hired by GEJ and PDP to place GEJ's 2015 posters are the same guys that placed that of BUHARI at the same strategic locations.
GEJ is very afraid of 2015. All the political structures he tried building never stood. he couldn't install his candidate for speaker of the house of representatives, his Nigeria Governors Forum candidate lost the chairmanship position, his wife lost plot land in abuja to Turai Yaradua.
Does it now surprise anyone why he is using thugs to threaten Nigerians about 2015?
Does it surprise anyone why he is pushing for automatic ticket for himself as PDP 2015 candidate?
He knows he wont even win PDP primaries!

On BLUES...i stand.

[quote author=mr_man]Fresh facts have emerged that the presidency and the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) are marshalling out plans to “deal” with some governors elected on the party’s platform from the north for failing to recognise the Plateau State Governor Jonah Jang who is leading a faction of the Nigeria Governors’ Forum (NGF).

Specifically, it was gathered that the first target among the northern PDP governors to be dealt with might be the Niger State Governor, Dr. Mu’azu Babangida Aliyu. Others include the governors of Jigawa, Kano, Sokoto and Kebbi States.

According to a source, “There are efforts to remove Aliyu as the chairman of the Northern States Governors’ Forum if he fails to recognise Governor Jang as the chairman of the forum.”

He said three governors from the north who remain loyal to the president are the arrowheads of the plot, adding that a meeting of the northern governors has been scheduled to hold on Thursday, June 6, where they may move against Aliyu. It was also gathered that “Abuja hawks” have commenced intense lobbying of members of the Niger State House of Assembly to impeach the governor.

A source said the legislators are being lobbied to move against the governor and to effect his ouster in a campaign bankrolled by people based in Abuja. Each member, according to the source, is being promised huge sums of money to sign on to the plot. The source also said a plan to precipitate a crisis of epic proportions, with the aim of destabilising the state and seizing control of the party’s structures from Aliyu is being engineered. He said top members of the PDP from Niger State are the linchpins behind the plot. The PDP members are alleged to be working in collusion with top politicians from the Nupe tribe, who constitute the majority in the state.

In order to incentivize them, politicians of Nupe origin have been promised that the governorship of the state would return to their zone. Niger State has a zoning arrangement which took the governorship slot to Zone C (Kontagora Zone) in 1999, after which Aliyu, who is from Zone B (Minna Zone), took over and will serve out his two terms by 2015. The calculation is that Zone A (Nupe Zone) should produce the next governor of the state.

This has to do with the fact that some of the governors who will be finishing their tenures in 2015, nurse political ambitions to contest for either the presidency or the senate.

According to the governor from the North-west zone, “Immediately Chief Anenih made that comment, we commenced consultations, but the more we speak among ourselves, the more we are thrown into confusion over what to do.” He said further: “Most PDP governors who are not on the side of the president still hold the strong view that the All Progressives Congress (APC) is not an option.” APC is the proposed coalition of major opposition parties in the country comprising the Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN), All Nigeria Peoples Party (ANPP), Congress for Progressive Change (CPC) and a faction of the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA). He added: “By the time we leave PDP to join APC, the party structures would have been formed; already the sharing formula would have been agreed on, and any party you join and you don’t have your people in the party structure, then you are not a senior member.” The governor said his colleagues who might want to leave the party were sceptical of the national leader of the ACN, Senator Bola Asiwaju, his antics and domineering style, especially what he described as “Tinubu’s use and dump” tactics. Citing the example of the former vice-president, Atiku Abubakar, and Nuhu Ribadu, whom the former Lagos State governor dumped at the last minute in 2011 to support Jonathan, he said these actions were consistent and were of major concern for the PDP governors.

The governor said that the PDP governors in question are also worried of the autocratic nature of the leader of the CPC, Major-General Muhammadu Buhari, his military background and hardline posture. It was for this reason that the governor said: “The option in this regard for the aggrieved PDP governors, senators and members of the House of the Representatives is to move to another party or form a new one. According to him, “If our fears are not addressed both in the PDP and the merging APC, we are going to leave to a new party where we will present a credible candidate that both PDP and APC would lack. “By this action, there won’t be a party with a majority in the National Assembly and the governors will be shared among three major parties. “This is the game plan for some of us considered to be against President Jonathan’s re-election bid. Our plan is to ensure that three major parties contest the 2015 presidential election.” He said even if a presidential primary were to hold for the 2015 election, it is certain that most of the delegates from the North-central, North-west and North-east zones will vote for Jonathan. “In view of this,” the governor said, “It is sure that the PDP ticket is not up for grabs, so it will be better for governors who are not on the president’s side to look elsewhere as a platform.”

Meanwhile, PDP Democrats, a group which has been championing the right of first refusal for the president during the 2015 PDP presidential primary, has commended Anenih for supporting its position that there should be no presidential primary, rather an affirmation of the presidential primary convention. In a statement signed by Elvis Agukwe Max Gbanite, Coordinator of the PDP Democrats, the group said: “We thank our great BoT chairman, Chief Tony Anenih, for recognising, and supporting our earlier position that our great party must be united as one before the general election; that our party must be devoid of rancour, enmity, in-fighting before a general election; and that our party must galvanise its strength, and mobilise support for a rancour-free affirmative presidential primary. “Therefore we identify with Chief Anenih’s statement that our party should evolve a new system of producing our flag bearers, that will preserve the unity. Therefore, the president and governors seeking second term should be given automatic ticket.” Also, the ruling PDP yesterday expressed confidence in its capacity to win the presidential election and more governorship elections in 2015.

In a statement signed by its National Publicity Secretary, Olisa Metuh, the party also dispelled fears that divergence of views and opinions among its members were capable of weakening it ahead of 2015. Instead, it said these divergent views were a reflection of its democratic stance where all members have the opportunity to air their views and to freely canvass their opinions unlike what obtains in the opposition parties where opinions and views of members are muzzled by political godfathers. PDP also dismissed and described as “shadow chasing and day dreaming”, boasts by the leaders of the yet-to-be-registered opposition APC, that it would take over government in 2015.

The party said power lies only with the people and not in the hands of - few desperate individuals. It said the opposition alliance would soon be in disarray, adding that most of those in the ranks would be betrayed and victimised by the godfathers who see the coalition as their personal estate. Metuh said the PDP welcomes the opposition to the electoral contest in 2015 but noted that they were already doomed to fail as Nigerians have since realised that they are merely “strange bed fellows” who have nothing to offer but are united by bitterness, frustration, religious and tribal sentiments. “We welcome the opposition to the contest. However, they are already doomed for failure because Nigerians have since realised their undemocratic tendencies and desperation for power for selfish reasons. “Nigerians know that they are merely strange bed fellows who are united by bitterness, frustration and religious and tribal sentiments and not for the national interest. “They have continued to betray their lust and inner disposition by their utterances in seeking to ‘seize power’ which has remained their only agenda. “They fail to understand that in a democracy, power is not to be seized. It is conferred by the people and this is the reason the people have continued to identify with the PDP. “The PDP believes in the people. No individual, group or tribe owns the PDP. It belongs to all Nigerians.

The PDP is a big family, united in freedom. “In a family there are bound to be divergence of opinions and views and this occurs where people are free. What outsiders see as internal disagreements is actually a reflection of the democratic stance of the PDP. “The PDP is the only party where people are absolutely free to express their views and freely canvass their opinions unlike in the opposition parties where the views and opinions of members are muzzled by their godfathers,” he said. Stating that the merger of the opposition parties was a positive factor for it, the PDP said it had also shown that the parties are essentially weak and would not be able to grapple with the huge responsibility of managing a big party. “We challenge the opposition also to be bold enough to hold primaries when the time comes. Many of those singing praises of the alliance will be betrayed and victimised by the godfathers and it will dawn on them that they have been deceived,” the statement said.
