PoliticsRe: I Am One Of Those That Put Akpabio In This Problem - Senator Sunday Karimi by BlessedGift(op): 3:52am On Mar 07, 2025
Too harsh please
EponObi:
Tor

With time, I believe the public with see who Natasha really is. The issue is many people are too emotional for politics. It's why people like Tinubu will continue using you and your proprietresses to wipe the floor. Lmaooo

The hate for this administration and Akpabio, too many men with estrogen and weak men who operate without reasoning at the sight of women and p.unani, and emotional women thinking they are supporting their fellow gender are all reasons a lot couldn't/won't see clearly on this matter.

Assuming Akpabio is guilty, he outsmarted all of you and Natasha right there on his seat without lifting a finger. Lmaoo. Natasha made it so easy for him.

Remember when Senator Cyril Fasuyi said Natasha wrongly accused Fayemi of selling Ajaokuta and a litigation is coming her way? Do you remember what she did? She said "She never accused Fayemi of sexual harassment" Lmaoo. That's the kind of person you are dealing with. I want to assume many manipulative beings eat a lot of you for launch out there, at work, in business, in social settings etc because I was shocked to read the opinions of many on this issue. Many of you are doomed if you operate in the real world with the brains you used to view the matter the past few weeks.

The most irrational and funny bunch were those calling for Akpabio resignation because of an allegation that Natasha didn't/hasn't provided a single evidence. Una too mumu I swear 🤣
PoliticsI Am One Of Those That Put Akpabio In This Problem - Senator Sunday Karimi by BlessedGift(op): 2:39am On Mar 07, 2025

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ca4WN7XYK1Y


Kogi-West senator, Sunday Karimi, admitted on Thursday how he contributed to the travails of the President of the Senate, Sen. Godswill Akpabio, for coming under public criticism due to the misconduct of his Kogi State colleague, Sen. Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan (Kogi-Central).

The Senate slammed a six-month suspension on Akpoti-Uduaghan on Thursday after it endorsed the report of its Committee on Ethics and Privileges that probed her 20 February 2025 verbal exchange with Akpabio over the reallocation of her seat.


The panel found her guilty of Order 6 of the Senate standing orders, which empowers the President of the Senate to allocate seats to senators from time to time.

Speaking on the floor of the Senate as the report was tabled, Karimi confessed to his colleagues how he contributed to creating the problem Akpabio was facing with Akpoti-Uduaghan, profusely apologising to the Senate President.

He recalled how he, along with other senators, pleaded with Akpabio when Akpoti-Uduaghan first came to the Senate, to fully accommodate her in the assigning of committee positions.

“I want to confess my sin today. I am one of those who put you in this problem, and I am very sorry.

Karimi further recalled that Akpabio’s immediate reaction was that he asked how he would appoint a newcomer to head a committee ahead of ranking senators, and particularly a strategic committee like the one on local content development.

He noted that his reason for making a case for Akpoti-Uduaghan was because the previous head of the committee was from Kogi State, adding that he strongly believed that Akpoti-Uduaghan, having come from the state, should be given the committee.

Karimi told his colleagues how the relationship between him and Akpoti-Uduaghan later rapidly went sour to a point she no longer spoke to him.


On the fateful day of the verbal exchange with Akpabio, the Kogi lawmaker said Akpoti-Uduaghan thoroughly abused him and his mother on the floor, believing that as the Chairman, Senate Services, he was responsible for reallocating her seat.

“She abused me and abused my mother because of seats. I am a Christian, I sent a private chat to her and urged her to apologise to the Senate and continue,” he added.

Karimi stated that he also reassured her that he could still be of help if she needed any support to reach the leadership of the Senate in a bid to avoid her eventual suspension.

“But, I am aware of her reaction to my message. People who were with her told me how she treated it,” he added.

PoliticsWe Are Only Celebrating Obasanjo's Official Age, He's 90 Plus - Ibikunle Amosun by BlessedGift(op): 4:49pm On Mar 06, 2025

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PVl0MwJpHE0

“Whenever I hear people praying that Baba will live to be 90, I always say baba will be 100 because I know baba is already more than 90, he should be 93 or 94, we are only celebrating his official age…”

Ibikunle Amosun celebrates Olusegun Obasanjo OBJ at 88

Recall that the FORMER President Olusegun Obasanjo had urged Nigerians, irrespective of their ethnic, religious and political affiliations to be patriotic in building Nigeria to an enviable status in the comity of nations.

The former President stated this in his remarks at his 88th birthday celebration, held at the Marque Hallelujah of the Olusegun Obasanjo Presidential Library (OOPL), in Abeokuta, Ogun State capital.

Two books authored by the former President titled ‘Lest We Forget: Slavery, Slave Trade, Emancipation and Reparation’ and ‘Nigeria: Past and Future’, were unveiled at the event.

Notable personalities present at the event included Governor Ademola Adeleke of Osun State; Ogun Deputy Gov, Noimot Salako-Oyedele; former governor of Jigawa State, Sule Lamido; former governor of Ogun State, Sen Ibikunle Amosun; former governor of Osun State, Olagunsoye Oyinlola; former Senate President, Adolphus Wabara; the 2023 Labour Party presidential candidate, Mr Peter Obi and his running mate, Yusuf Datti-Ahmed, traditional rulers and captains of industry.

The former President said he was optimistic that the country will attain an enviable status which all the citizens will be proud of during his lifetime irrespective of how bad the situation could be.

He said: “I am an incurable optimistic about Nigeria. Yes, the situation is bad, no doubt, but I believe in my lifetime, we will have the Nigeria that we will all be proud of.”

He said African countries cannot continue to operate under the shadow of colonialism, feeling less superior and achieve its full potentials or take its rightful position in world affairs, saying that the continent must release itself from every element of colonialism and slavery to achieve greatness.

Speaking about his new books, Obasanjo said: “Part of our problems in Africa is what I may call residues of slave trade, slavery and colonialism and until we can break ourselves completely away from it, we may not be able to make progress as we should do.

“We have to shrug off residues of colonialism and slavery, we have to do this so as not be re-enslaved again after more than two centuries that we suffered the first one.”

The former President said that he remains an incurable optimist about Nigeria getting out of the woods as long as the leadership demonstrates strong will to remain selfless and be committed to building a virile nation.

Don’t believe anyone saying I am older than 88

Obasanjo while thanking those who graced the occasion, however, told them not to believe what some people are saying that he was older than 88.

“Don’t believe anyone saying I am older than 88, that I am 90, my mother said that I was born on Ifo Market day and I am Aremu and Kabiyesi, the Alake and Paramount Ruler of Egbaland, Oba Adedotun Gbadebo was born on Itoku Market day and he is Aremu and nobody will change that.

“So, every Itoku Market day is Oba Gbadebo’s birthday while every Ifo Market day is my birthday. We’ll leave it at that.”

PoliticsRSIEC Unveils Timetable, Guidelines For Fresh LG Election In Rivers by BlessedGift(op): 2:01am On Mar 06, 2025

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7D_vWiLxevc

The Rivers State Independent Electoral Commission, RSIEC, has fixed August 9, 2025, for the conduct of fresh local government elections.

The development followed last Friday’s Supreme Court judgment which nullified the October 5, 2024 local government elections in the state, on grounds that the electoral umpire failed to comply with stipulated regulations.

Chairman of RSIEC, Justice Adolphus Enebeli (rtd), made the announcement on Wednesday following an enlarged stakeholders meeting at the commission’s headquarters in Port Harcourt.

Justice Enebeli also unveiled the guidelines for the rescheduled local government elections to stakeholders at the meeting.

He announced that political parties that will be eligible to field candidates in the election must complete, and submit an expression of interest form to participate on or before Monday, April 4, 2025, while the political parties are expected to conclude their primaries between April 21 -and May 12, 2025.

Enebeli also disclosed that campaigns for the elections shall commence from July 7, 2025, and end on August 7, 2025.

Justice Enebeli said that no nomination of candidate shall be valid unless the sum of N5,000 was paid for the position of councilors, and N10,000 for chairmen and vice chairmanship positions.
PoliticsObi's Wave Made Me To Lose Lagos Election, I Will Defeat Sanwo-olu - Jandor by BlessedGift(op): 3:46pm On Mar 05, 2025

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sq6sdCnZckk

Olajide Adediran, popularly known as Jandor, has claimed that if not for the “Peter Obi effect,” he would have emerged victorious over Babajide Sanwo-Olu in the 2023 Lagos State governorship election.

Speaking, the former Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) governorship candidate argued that the unexpected surge of support for the Labour Party (LP) in Lagos shifted the political landscape, making it difficult for the PDP to compete effectively.

“The 2023 election came with this tsunami that nobody ever expected, and it was there for everybody to see,” Jandor said.

He explained that after Peter Obi of the Labour Party (LP) won the February 2023 presidential election in Lagos, the dynamics of the governorship poll, held weeks later, drastically changed against the PDP.

Recall the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) declared Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu of the All Progressives Congress (APC) as the winner of the governorship election with 762,134 votes. Labour Party’s Gbadebo Rhodes-Vivour finished second with 312,329 votes, while Jandor came third with 62,449 votes.

Jandor insisted that, before the presidential election, PDP was in a strong position and actively challenging the ruling APC.

“Before the general election, we were on the streets of Lagos, and the ruling party was nowhere to be found. We had several debates, and he (Sanwo-Olu) didn’t show up; he even said he didn’t want to share a stage with me,” Jandor recalled.

“The 2023 election had its own dynamics. It was a two-horse race until the presidential election. If you look at what happened, Peter Obi came first in Lagos, Asiwaju came second, and Atiku came third.

“The moment that happened, there was this belief that if we do this, we can get this state off XYZ. So, we were victims of that political wave.

“Each time I address my people, I tell them: look, we did everything, but that wave came and swallowed the whole thing; nobody saw that coming.”

Despite his disappointment, Jandor expressed confidence that, without the “Obi effect,” he might have won the governorship election. However, he acknowledged that “it wasn’t God’s time yet” for him to become governor.

His political career began in the APC, where he led the Lagos4Lagos Movement before defecting to the PDP in 2022. He emerged as the party’s governorship candidate but recently left the PDP, citing internal sabotage.

“We were waiting to see if the party at the national level, governed by its constitution, would take action against those engaged in anti-party activities. We waited patiently for two years, but instead of enforcing sanctions, the same person was appointed Vice Chairman of the Disciplinary Committee,” he said.

Looking ahead, Jandor revealed that he is open to joining another political party to pursue his 2027 governorship ambition.

PoliticsI Am Qualified To Serve Bauchi People - Dr. Ali Pate Says Ahead Of 2027 by BlessedGift(op): 12:08pm On Mar 05, 2025

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_TUG3Ys91is

Current Minister of Health, Dr. Mohammad Ali Pate has said that he is qualified to serve Bauchi People, hinting on possibility of joining Governorship race in 2027.

Recall that some political commentators have said that Pate’s election would curb the growing power of pockets of special or quack interests, which so often conceal their self-serving agendas behind a facade of fist-in-the-air patriotism and unfulfilling promises.

Dr. Pate is both the key to a brighter future and the bulwark to move the State to a greater height; his deep knowledge of public, international and private sector investments will be a great asset in opening the doors of foreign investment in the State that will help to creates Jobs, small scale industries, transfer of knowledge and technology. He’s been meticulous, transparent, focus, visionary, thorough and responsible to a fault. If anything; he’s a marvelous professional, administrator, medical Doctor, academician, consultant, technocrat, politician and a mini-philanthropist.

Today, Professor Pate represents the fountain of humility, wisdom, loyalty, discipline, hardworking, know-how, patriotism and accountability. He had a realistic view of the avant-garde world; he is a great analyst, pragmatic and also a tactician to get things done. He is God fearing man, a type who will inspire and to galvanize, not to share our distract thoughts.

He is a type who will not surround himself with melancholy appointees and advisers. Going by his track records and achievement; he is an aspirant that if given the opportunity will lead the State to a sustainable path, with an economy built on human capital, not financial engineering.

Moment a Cherubim and Seraphim Church bishop in South West Nigeria participated in unusual ordination ritual.

Many commentators have been asking “How did we get here”, When did this become a norm in the church?” Another reader reacted, “This is disturbing, there’s no biblical basis for this kind of anointing”.

While some argue that different denominations have unique traditions that should not be condemned outright, others insists that the act is misleading and goes against Christian teachings.

The debate continues with many calling for greater scrutiny of religious practices in Nigeria.

However, the church has distanced itself from individual involved, emphasizing that they are not members of the Cherubim and Seraphim Unification Church of Nigeria and do not represent its doctrines or values.

In a statement addressing the controversy, the church expressing deep dismay over the disturbing content of the video, describing it as “horrific” and “despicable before God and man”, the church noted that while it would not ordinarily respond to such incidents, it was compelled to speak out due to their mention of its revered founder, St. Moses Orimolade Tunolase, and the unauthorized use of C&S symbols in the video.

Furthermore, the church addressed common misconceptions regarding white-garment churches, emphasizing that not all individual dressed in white are members of the C&S organization.

“It is easy for anyone to purchase white garments and claim affiliation, but true members of the Unification Church are recognized by the church leadership”, the statement read.

Former APC National Chairman and ex-governor of Edo State, Adams Oshiomhole said he was not convinced that the petitioners did enough to warrant the cancellation of the election.

Oshiomhole, who witnessed the tribunal’s proceedings, argued that “It is the duty of the petitioners to prove their allegations beyond doubt.

“I am satisfied with how the hearing went, but only the tribunal can determine the outcome.”

Meanwhile, the Edo State Governorship Election Petition Tribunal, sitting in Abuja, reversed judgment in the petition filed by the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and its candidate in the September 21, 2024 gubernatorial election held in the state, challenging the outcome of the election.

PDP and Ighodalo are, in their petition, querying the decision by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to declare Senator Monday Okpebholo of the All Progressives Congress (APC) as winner of the election, which they claimed was marred by irregularities.

Shortly after lawyers to parties adopted their written addresses and made final submissions on Monday, the three-man tribunal, headed by Justice Wilfred Kpochi announced that the date for judgment would be communicated to them.

Meanwhile, the Senate Presiden, Sen. Godswill Akpabio, lauded the Abia State Governor, Dr. Alex Otti, for celebrating Senator Enyinnaya Abaribe on his 70th birthday Anniversary, describing the gesture as a testament to true leadership that transcends political party differences.

Speaking at the event held at the International Conference Center, organized by the Abia State Government in honor of the Senator representing Abia South Senatorial District, Akpabio, further described Governor Otti as a generational Leader on a mission to serve his people.

The Senate President also commended Governor Otti for setting aside political affiliations to honor Abaribe, who belongs to a different political party, noting that such a move demonstrates the Governor’s deep understanding of leadership and governance.

Sen. Akpabio emphasized that the Governor’s decision to celebrate Abaribe will further endear him to the people of Abia.

“Governor Alex Otti is like me. He will be generous to the people of Abia State because he is a man who is generous in his heart .

“I want to urge Governor Alex Otti, who has decided to honour you (Abaribe), that you (Otti) are not just honouring him, you are doing good politics, because through Abaribe, you have won your heart in the whole of Abia South Senatorial zone.

“When you are going for your second term, you will see that this was money well -spent .



“What you are doing today, What you are doing today, oh my God! If you know the way we rate Senator Enyinnaya Abaribe in Nigeria, you would know that you are celebrating a man that you cannot regret.

“This is why you see me here today, not necessarily for Abaribe, I have celebrated Abaribe in the Senate but I came to join you (Otti) to give glory to God for the life of a man that is worth emulating , for a role model of Ndi Igbo and the youths of Nigeria for a great man of integrity,” Akpabio declared.

Sen Akpabio who described Abaribe as a man of grace whose life reflects
resilience and dedication to the Igbo people and Nigeria at large, lauded the celebrant for his integrity and courage.

Also speaking, Governor Otti while congratulating Senator Enyinnaya Abaribe for the milestone, described the Senator Abaribe man of courage, fearless, open to the truth and defender of the Igbo nation.

Governor Otti while explaining that the celebration of Senator Enyinnaya Abaribe has no political attachment,vowed that he will continue to celebrate Elders who make the state proud,noting that he would host similar ceremony for Bright Chimezie, on 22nd April, Paulson Kalu November, a posthumous birthday for late Jaja Nwachukwu among others.

He equally described Senator Abaribe as a selfless leader whose character is worthy of emulation and thanked God for keeping him for more services to humanity.

“Abaribe is a man who loves his people and is willing to take risks for them.

“When he signed the bail bond for Nnamdi Kanu, many were shocked and questioned why a senator would take such a risk. But he stood firm, believing that even if it meant going to prison on Kanu’s behalf, he was ready because of what he stands for”, Akpabio stated.

The Governor who said that the struggle for Biafra today is not about anybody but an agitation agitation for Ndigbo to be recognized and giving equal treatment and opportunities like others.

In his remarks, the Celebrant Senator Enyinnaya Abaribe while thanking God for His uncommon Grace upon his life, said his frankness was a product of the virtues inculcated in him by his late father.

He stressed the need for those in position of trust to strive to put in place favourable policies and programmes that would raise the living standard of the people and increase life expectancy.

The event which featured a church service at the Seventh Day Adventist Church, presentation of a book written by the celebrant, was attended by top political figures, business leaders, and well-wishers who gathered to celebrate the senator’s legacy and contributions to Nigeria.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=898Bsz9HR68

The presidential candidate of the African Action Congress (AAC) in the 2019 and 2023 general elections, Omoyele Sowore, has expressed his determination to win the 2027 general elections against President Bola Tinubu and others.

The human rights activist and pro-democracy campaigner stated this on Saturday while speaking with journalists at the 2025 and the 3rd ECOWAS-Abuja International Marathon.

He said the race he is looking forward to win will happen soon and is the one that will involve President Bola Tinubu and others where he will claim the ultimate prize.

Sowore, who also participated in the 5km race, said Nigeria has a lot to gain by tapping into sports which can bring as much as earnings that the oil is bringing to the economy. He commended every runner for displaying the spirit of participation while urging the government to invest in other sports like swimming, snooker, javelin, shot put and others.


“Everybody that ran here is high-profile. It takes a lot of energy to run 5km. I think I know what you mean. One of the people who should be on the high table but running. I think I didn’t want to win because I want others to win. I just want to participate.

“The race I want to win is happening soon. The race in which you put me, Tinubu and others and I can collect this prize. We see who wins in that one.

“The spirit is participation and that is the most important. We did Lagos some two weeks ago and this is Abuja. And that every town, city, every village would have marathon race.

“Instead of going after oil and sharing oil money, maybe people should invest more in sports in every sector. Running, swimming, snooker, javelin, shot put. We can even do Winter Olympics. You know Nigerians can do anything and that is why we deserve better leaders that we have here,” Sowore said.

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

The Akwa Ibom State Council of Traditional Rulers has conferred President Bola Ahmed Tinubu with the highest traditional title: “Otuekong, or Commander–in–Chief of Akwa Ibom State.”

The conferment was held at the State House, Abuja. The President General, Nteyin Solomon Etuk, Okuibom Ibibio III, led the chiefs.

The chiefs were among the 104-member delegation led to the State House by Governor Umo Eno.

Other delegation members were political leaders from different parties, including Senate President Godswill Akpabio and his wife Ekaette, religious leaders, former ministers and lawmakers, women and youth groups.

“I accept all the honours and the conferment. I am one of you. Going back in time, I recall staying in Eket as an auditor of Mobil. We are all friends and family with the State that has moved progressively, with development and speed,” President Tinubu said.

He said the country’s full potential can be better realised when political leaders look beyond party loyalty in serving the nation.

President Tinubu attributed the progress in Akwa Ibom State to consistency of vision and commitment to the collective development goal.

“I have just signed the 2025 budget. I am happy that the uncertainty over the economy is fading, and hope is rising. Thank you for always staying with us. We must work together to build the nation. And to everyone here, you represent and reflect a good society.

The President commended Governor Eno for his generous spirit, selflessness, and broad vision. He provided strong and purposeful leadership that transformed the State quickly.

President Tinubu affirmed that the Governor’s leadership style should be an example for other political leaders.

The President noted, “I have listened to the governor’s concerns about a deep-sea port and a state visit.”


“You have a very good governor, and he has the fear of God and love for his people. I watch the Arise programme of the State, and have been following developments.

Senate President Akpabio said Governor Eno has been promoting unity and harmony in the State, noting that the entire political leadership of the State will meet for more reconciliation.

Akpabio assured the President of the state’s full support in moving the nation forward.

Governor Eno, who presented his scorecard to the President, said the State was ready to work with the federal government, particularly in building infrastructure like the Ibom deep sea port and intervening in ecological challenges.

The Governor thanked the President and his wife, Sen Oluremi Tinubu, for their support to his family when he lost his wife.

PoliticsRe: APC Lost All Three Senatorial Seats To PDP While El-Rufai Was Governor - Sani by BlessedGift(op): 5:05pm On Mar 01, 2025
Hmmmmm, politics is a game of number
AMINDA:
No need for any long explanations. He lost Lagos, his own base and that's all that matters. Obi won Anambra and Atiku won Adamawa. The margin is irrelevant because Lagos was largely a two-horse race (APC and Obi) unlike Kaduna that was a three-horse race with Atiku (a fellow Northerner), Obi (the Candidate for all Christians) and Tinubu (muslim-muslim ticket was his only saviour). My point remains, why do you accuse Elrufai of working against Tinubu and the same is not directed at Akpabio, Gbaja, Ganduje, Ribadu, Bagudu, etc who all lost their states too.

Tinubu's margin of almost 400k in Kaduna is still larger than two Southwest states combined. Besides, despite Tinubu losing most northern states to Atiku, he still won the North overall (in terms of margin) getting 5.6m out of his total 8.3m from the North. Northerners are not buying this claim of you all saying Elrufai worked against Tinubu because they know it to be untrue. Rather, all Elrufai's opponents (who worked against the APC in 2023) have now been invited to the table to eat where he toiled to deliver his party's candidate. It is gross betrayal!

Sure

Dude, he lost by only 10,000 votes—that's crazy close! It could've gone either way.

In the West, Lagos would be a swing state leaning APC, like always.

Most of the Southwest is the same; people there aren't locked into one party.

Given Lagos' demographics and all the drama around BAT, he did pretty well to get those votes.

And he's smart; he knows it's about the total, and his people delivered where it counted, except maybe Rivers where I am not sure we can trust that report.

Take out Rivers, he still wins hands down
PoliticsMoment Nnamdi Kanu's Lawyer Urges Fubara To Obey Supreme Court Order by BlessedGift(op): 3:52pm On Mar 01, 2025

Frontline human rights activist and lawyer, Maxwell Opara Esq has urged Rivers State Governor, Sim Fubara to comply with the supreme court order. On the other hand, the Rivers State government has said that it would decide its next step when it gets details of the Supreme Court judgment on the lingering political crisis in the state.

The State Commissioner for Information, Joseph Johnson, in a statement said, the state government has taken note of reports in the media regarding the judgment of the Supreme Court concerning the funds of Rivers State and the administration of local governments in the state.

He said: “At this time, we are awaiting a detailed briefing on the implications of the judgment. We will carefully evaluate the situation and determine the next steps to take in the best interest of Rivers State and its people.

“Though we have not gotten the details of the judgment from our legal team, we enjoin Rivers people to remain calm, law abiding and go about our legitimate businesses as we seek clarity on the judgment.

“We believe that the determination of the main issue of defection of the 27 lawmakers is a matter not before the Supreme Court as it is pending at the Federal High Court in Port Harcourt. Since the issue of defection wasn’t on the table before the learned Justices, in their eyes, Amaewhule and the 26 others are still operating as lawmakers until that matter of defection comes before them.”

Johnson, however, gave assurances that the state government remains committed to upholding its mandate to protect the best interest and the rule of law in all matters affecting Rivers State.

El Rufai tested his popularity with the recent comment on the president but he discovered that he's nothing in Nigeria's politics.
