I hate that i am a Nigerian, i hate that i am a part of this country.

What country in this world has ever elected a drug lord for a president? They no longer deny that the man is a drug lord. They now agree that he was actually indicted but that was over 10years ago. Pity

Worst of it all is that, this incoming president is being punished by his past deeds, that he cannot maintain a good health for 3months. Yet you elected as president, a man who is being punished, what are you expecting the country to be like under his rule?

To even think that you elected this man after 8 years of Buhari terrible rule marred with economic hardship, killings and several societal vices, beats the imagination.


I hate Democracy! Like Plato said in his book "the republic", the arrogance of the majority will lead them into bringing in the worst form of rulers and the minority will remain oppressed. (Southern kaduna, northern christians, Benue, plateau etc.)

Interim government or not, a day will come when this so called country will explode and we will all get burnt.

Dude. There are countries around the world that do not practice democracy to which you can relocate for your mental sanity.
I'm glad you acknowledged that majority has made a choice and minority has had its say.
Nigeria has chosen president elect based on the law that guides Nigeria. If you are not comfortable with that law/process, you're unfit to be a citizen or citizen of any democracy across the globe. GTFOOH!
That you think your judgement is the only right one (as compared to majority) is an arrogance I'll address soonest.

KingsCity:
Nothing like that

Where there is no president-elect, interim government is justified by the Doctrine of Necessity

The Constitution makes the president the Governor of the FCT and you cannot be installed as the Governor of a place if you have failed to win even 20% of the votes there.

Yakubu erred when he declared someone who failed to score 25% in FCT as President-elect, effectively therefore, there is no president-elect

Dumbo. You don't have the duty to interprete the law. Your sponsors (Yes awon baba e) have approached the court. Wait for the judgement.
In the interim, you can relocate from Nigeria if you are tired of democracy!
There's a president-elect who will be sworn in on May 29th.

Shame on you and your ilk. In one breath, you condemn interim govt. In another, you are calling for interim government! Interim government on what basis?
You are not fit for a democratic society. Try relocate for your sanity.

Post Election Loss Trauma Syndrome

Post Election Loss Trauma Syndrome

Please what is with this LGBTQ that the Americas are so passionate about? I'm really lost. Why is Africa not this passionate about polygamy or polyandry?

Honestly this beats me. I understand that Adebanjo can have personal issues against BAT (and can have a preferred candidate) but his office cannot! Afenifere is a sociopolitical organization to advance the course of Yoruba race. It is counter intuitive. Can't find such in ACF, OHANEZE....

I didn't believe the op initially. But checking all the sources, I'm really ashamed of Iwuanyawu. Shame on him! To also think a former president, an aspiring president was in attendance...all for what? Because you lost an election?
1966 is repeating itself right before our faces.
Actions and consequences loading...

How does ethnicity or religion affect governance? They are just tools used by politicians to galvanize votes.
Hypocrisy is when you say someone should vote your PO because another party has muslim-muslim ticket. Then you get angry when the other says vote my candidate coz he is not supported by igbos.
You are bird of same feather!
Stop the hypocricy!

No rest for the wicked ke! For he gives his servants rest.

So I have decided not to spare my obidient friends anymore since yesterday. Let's call a spade a spade you are purely STUPID when your emotions override your sense of judgement on seemingly clear subjects.
If your proof of clandestine meeting with btw CJN and BAT is wheel chair sight in london, you are not learned. Maybe educated. To see my lawyer friends who started deleting thier posts on SM yesterday after Supreme Court rebuttal. I SMH.
Same you agreed that cashless policy is hurtful to citizens but must be implemented to prevent a candidate from winning your candidate...until Supreme Court waded in. You are stupid!
Same you believed that Buhari is cloned. You are stupid!

Bust body. I like the appellate court jargon

KillerCrocodile:


Ok

Constitution expert

What does the Constitution says about the VP choice of tinubu and his eligibility ?

Was Kashim Shettima running for two different offices ?

Is that not against the Constitution ?

Does that not disqualify tinubu because he was running with an ineligible VP

Constitution expert, What saith the Constitution on this matter ?

Go and read the constitution and electoral act. No individual can be a candidate of 2 elective positions in an election cycle. The constitution again now defines who a candidate is i.e who ever has won a primary. Now ask yourself if Kashim was a candidate or an aspirant for 2 elective positions.
I've not seen cases as porous as what Obi took to tribunal!

Turning the question personal is not the problem. He made a categorical statement as the fact. That's the unethical practice that i pick with AriseTv everytime. Many times their interviewees have to call them out for lying outrightly. And the culture of having a referendum on their interviewee is horrible. It's the arrogance of the media. You invite someone. He gave his opinion. Leave the public to judge. Don't use your position to suave public perception by judging how that individual performed without him being there to defend himself. Rufai does this a lot.

I'm happy for Alex Otti. Its another opportunity for him to prove that he is not a mediocre, having messed up Diamond Bank. Wishing him great success.

Na man you be jor Wike!

Coastal City does not translate to plenty of wind.

There is not enough wind in Lagos.

True. Fashola actually did an expose on this. Lagos no get enough wind

Tinubu wey no lose any court case pre campaign
And during campaign. Na him go lose post Election case. Dey play. The guy na your master. Yeye.

You People have a problem. You harassed people before election, you lost election, na you come out again to be insulting those who won election. Kpele you are the only one that has igbo wife. Those that won do not abi? Or you didn't see igbos that voted BAT and Sanwo. It's thesame you that will start tribal profiling accusation. Ogini?
Whatever makes you think your right of choice is higher than the right of choice of your fellow countryman is what makes you sick in the head!

Fortruth:
INEC and APC needed an extra week or thereabout to fine tune how to rig and manipulate this election. Governors are very powerful and influential, and there is no GOD DAYUM way they are going to allow GRV and Labour to upstage all their investments and plans of looting the from decades ago into decades of the future...


Governments, especially in Africa, are not in existence for the common people, but an avenue to protect the elites, and SIPHON resources to International Gangsters and Deep States.....

You folks that engaged in petty tribalism simply aided them for free and they knew you as a BLACKIE would do that. You don't even know what Tinubu or many of these quack criminal governor elects stand for on any substantive issues, but were doing tribalism and religion...

What a Shame BLACK PEOPLE......

The next four years will enrich so many OYIBO and Chinese tech companies and make more billionaires among them, while millions more blacks will be displaced, impoverished, and dancing more to Afrobeats.....

TOO BAD

Oh I watched her BBC interview. Very simple and humble. Not woke at all. Congratulations to her

So nobody should shout No federal project again. You are the architect of your destiny; the Michael Angelo of your future. Nigeria will get there.

The man is not dynamic and stubborn. He was a reckless talker and anarchist.. He's too old for the job

I concur with all adjectives except anarchist. A very strict man

Gbam. I thought Sanwolus crime was that he has a godfather and you want to get rid of that kind of structure. Bode George wants to godfather from PDP.
The deceit in GRV candidature is evident to the blind. It's all about Tinubu and nothing about competence for PDP and PDPlite

byteem:



So what does he do for INEC is he a consultant, contractor or vendor.. dont tell half truths

An octogenerian lied on national TV that the man is the head if INEC ICT. That was debunked! No half truth here. Full lie was debunked.
Simple and straight forward.
SMH for PDP &PDPlite

A whole octogenarian. Shame on PDP.

Where do we go for facts when when an Octogenerian goes to lie on national TV? Why must he always stand on lies and be inconsistent?

[The Independent National Electoral Commission has denied appointing a former Commissioner in Lagos State, Femi Odubiyi, as its head of the Information and Communications Technology department.

This is coming following the claim of a chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party, Chief Bode George, that the former commissioner was made INEC’s ICT head.

In a statement on Sunday, the former Deputy National Chairman of the PDP said the INEC chairman, Mahmood Yakubu, must remove Odubiyi as the Commission’s ICT head because of his closeness to the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress and President-elect, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu.

He said the first thing Yakubu must do was to explain to Nigerians how the former Commissioner for Science and Technology in Lagos State allegedly found his way into INEC as head of ICT, “a critical department before, during and after elections.”]

The Independent National Electoral Commission has denied appointing a former Commissioner in Lagos State, Femi Odubiyi, as its head of the Information and Communications Technology department.

This is coming following the claim of a chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party, Chief Bode George, [/b]that the former commissioner was made INEC’s ICT head.

In a statement on Sunday, [b]the former Deputy National Chairman of the PDP said the INEC chairman, Mahmood Yakubu, must remove Odubiyi as the Commission’s ICT head because of his closeness to the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress and President-elect, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu.

He said the first thing Yakubu must do was to explain to Nigerians how the former Commissioner for Science and Technology in Lagos State allegedly found his way into INEC as head of ICT, “a critical department before, during and after elections.”

Dismissing the claim in a statement late Tuesday, INEC through its National Commissioner and Chairman, Information and Voter Education Committee, Festus Okoye, said the widely publicised report (not The PUNCH) attributed to Bode George was a false claim. “Nothing can be farther from the truth,” Okoye said.

“To set the record straight, the name “Femi Odubiyi“ does not even exist within our ICT Department at the INEC headquarters in Abuja or any state office of the Commission.”

INEC said its ICT staff were career officers of the Commission, adding “none has held any political appointment in any state of the Federation.”

“The public is urged to disregard the story. The promoter should have been circumspect so as not to be seen as a purveyor of fake news.”

It's about politics. The president must appoint SE in executive positions to show inclusivity. But SP is a political position. SE made a political choice, SE cannot prevent APC from making its political choice.
SE has chosen regional opposition and should live by that. SW did the same for most of 1st,2nd,3rd and 16 years of the 4th republic.
