That was not an act of Ghana.

I now understand why you dimwits are always killing each other, your comprehension is that of Neanderthals, including your speaker of your National Assembly.
Please what does "an act of Ghana" mean?
PoliticsRe: Why Nigeria High Commission Building In Ghana Was Demolished by Cantonese: 10:24pm On Jun 25, 2020
If that property belonged to USA, CHINA, UK, RUSSIA, FRANCE, JAPAN or GERMANY would the so called Osu have dared to go near there, how much more pull down the fence or any building inside?

The fact still remains that Ghana and Ghanaians will never stop being jealous of Nigerians. The obtain Nigerians passports, commit crimes in pretending to be Nigerians and then run back to their country.

An end surely to this hatred and wickedness by Ghanaians should happen, otherwise they may have to get paid in their own coin.

In a decent country, Buhari should have resigned or made to resign. How can people become refugees in their own country? It is a pity.
But what can he truly do? The truth must be told that there are some evil people hiding under Islam as a religion to perpetrate this evil. There are also those who take advantage of the religion to sponsor, promote and defend this wickedness. Does Islam agree with this evil perpetrated by some its so called adherents all over the world? That's a question that needs to be answered.

What did the Army constitution say about the expression of one's grievances? As an army officer, I am sure he must have sworn to uphold the Army constitution and follow it judiciously. Within an organization, you are bounded by its rules and regulations. Anything outside that rule is said to be deliberate sabotage or mutiny. This is a case of doing the right thing in the wrong way.
And what happened with those who planned and successully executed coups? Did they not swear to uphold the constitution of our country?

He should have just resigned.
How can change be effected when people are not determined or desirous for it? Revolutions happen when people have had enough of bad governance. Silence can be agreement. Under such yokes how do you want to keep quiet and accuse others who have chosen to stand up against it?

They say cowards die many times before their death. You become a coward when you stay under the cover of social media to criticize others who have refused to continue under such evil established orders.

The young man did the right thing even if it amounts to rebellion or mutiny. He may lose his life but he has made his point and further opened our eyes to the wrongs going on in the military establishment.

Recently you all celebrated the Chadian president over his action against boko haram. You all called him a hero while criticizing our president and the army chief.
Who is a coward here in the real sense? Certainly it is not the young officer.

If Ojukwu, Buhari, Sani Abacha, Babangida, and other military officers as youths then, were cowards and chickens, they would not have planned and executed succesful coups against the established order then. They became change agents. Today in their old ages they still hold leadership positions and yet label our youths as lazy.

Our youths truly need to wake up and take their destinies in the hands. The old men are waiting for you all to do something. The young officer has done his own little. It went viral. Is it the honest truth? The result can be seen in the so called battle against terrorist, insurgents, herdsmen and other evil anti social groups and individuals.

Resignation therefore can be interpreted as.cowardice. He clearly said that he could lose his life. If he does then he has made a very big sacrifice for the moving forward of this country.

All we can do now is to ask all our SANs, civil societies, youths, trade unions and market people back him as he fights for his liberty.

PoliticsRe: Three Reasons Why Negotiations With Bandits Led To More Attacks by Shehu Sani by Cantonese: 8:48pm On Jun 22, 2020
festacman:
If anything, Buhari's presidency has revealed two things about Northerners:

1. They suffer from OSTRICH MENTALITY. Through lack of vision and detachment from the ordinary people, Northern political leaders, religious leaders and traditional rulers conspired to neglect their own people for so long, engendered subsistence living and widespread poverty. Religion served as an opium for some. Others went for hard drugs. In the long term, the seeds of both religious fanaticism and economic banditry took roots.

As the consequences of their actions rages, they still refuse to tackle the root causes. The traditional rulers and the elites are busy giving their children best of education and opportunities. The religious leaders are still focused on observance of tenets while not caring about the living conditions of followers. Instead of good policies and programs, political leaders are busy fighting each other, changing political parties to steal more public money for themselves. The common people remain neglected and wallow in subsistence living and poverty.

2. They suffer from inordinate SENSE OF ENTITLEMENT . On assumption of office, Pres. Buhari handed over the security of this country to Northerners. Now, how can your sons be in charge of Army, Airforce, police, DSS, NIA, etc and you still complain. Hold your sons accountable. Hold the state governors responsible for not deploying the security votes to tackle securities. Bandits are not spirits. Young men should step up and join the security men to fight their peers who now enjoy bandit tag.

Where are LOQUACIOUS Arewa Consultative Council and Arewa Youth Consultative Forum when you need them. Listen, dear Northerners, you cannot drink your fura da nono and still have it in the bowl.

STEP UP and TAKE RESPONSIBILITY.
Fantastic write up. Please get a drink on me.
PoliticsRe: Giadom: A Fresh Primary Will Be Conducted In Edo by Cantonese: 8:36pm On Jun 22, 2020

Is Oshiomole not an unconscious PDP agent working inside APC?

Buhari is really weak.
Buhari certainly is not weak in my opinion. You all voted for him twice and have always insisted on protecting our democracy. Not speaking does not make him weak. Others have their rights, views and ideas in a democracy. I think he has given room for people to express themselves.

We may not agree with certain government policies, but we must not forget how democracy works.

Trump has been publicly abused by the press and even government officials. He too returned the abuses and yabis and still remains there. That's democracy in play bro.
PoliticsRe: APC Crisis: INEC In Dilemma Over Edo Primary by Cantonese: 1:26am On Jun 22, 2020
This has always been the process with APC and elections. Right from 2012 they seemed only organised to take over power from PDP without a clear road map on leadership. Repeatedly APC has shot itself in the foot. They say too many cooks spoil the broth.

The same story has played out in states with APC governors. Those without APC governors witnessed too many in house fighting by APC contestants, court litigations, accusations and counter accusations. They try to drag the president into it by accusing each other of trying to distabilise his government.

I do not understand the manner of Oshiomole's leadership. When he came onboard through the calculations of some governors, there was the thinking that APC had found their messiah. What we have seen in his two years have been unbelievable. In his presence his party has repeated the same mistakes. He immediately had issues with some of the governors that brought him. One cannot but wonder why he could not find solutions to his battles with Obaseki seeing that he is from Edo state. Can one safely say that he did not have the needed skills to manage the people and the party? He seemed to be too highhanded and full of local braggado.

For me I no am no longer in suspence about the outcome of the election in Edo state. It is easy to know what will happen in Edo state at the end. The same thing happened in Delta, Zamfara, Lagos, Rivers, Sokoto, etc, with different groups within the party trying to outdo the other. Now the deputy gov of Ondo state has resigned and decamped to PDP too!

If the center can no longer hold for APC and the different groups find that they can no longer accomodate themselves, it's better for them to split and return to their original parties as the regional parties that they were for effective management.

Remnant? How will you define Ize Iyamu who decamped to APC from PDP? Remnant? How will you define all those who left PDP to enable CNC, ACN, ANPP, etc to move from regional parties to form a nationally recognised APC? Without "remnants" from PDP would APC have achieved power?

Sorry sir,you are the one that is wrong.I dislike this kind of argument.it is a waste just like atiku server result.how can a whole governor not know about corrections of names? Is it not same governor that swore affidavit in 2016.don't make any excuse,he knows everything but does not have it.since 1979,he has not corrected the mistake in his certificate...he forged it boy.

Sorry,there is a time limit.as pdp are submitting his name on 29,his qualifications will be attached.if it has not been corrected,the law requires any party that is aggrieved to photocopy it and take him to court.he will be removed before the elections.
He has all his documents now. Nothing to fear for him.
PoliticsRe: Planned Defection: PDP Leadership To Decide On Obaseki Today by Cantonese: 12:47pm On Jun 18, 2020
Dansuqi:
Sorry,oshiomhole was not sacked but suspended illegally.courts esp abuja area courts like giving frivolous orders that is if you have been following court cases.courts nowadays give judgments indiscriminately and to the highest bidder and in disregard of previous judgments.what the abuja court gave was an exparte order suspending him while the main matter will be heard later and the appeal court simply sustained that order while the matter will be heard.they have not gone into the matter of deciding the legality or otherwise of his suspension or whether a court already suspended those ward exco that illegally suspended him...

If you take away the contributions of those pdp members that joined apc,apc would still have won.if you disagree,how come after the defections of saraki,atiku,kwankwaso and 2 other governors back to pdp,apc still won by a larger margin?

You can never take out federal might from any equation after all pdp once wielded it and were defeated.let pdp also defeat apc without federal kight.pdp used it ruthlessly esp under obj.apc will also use it.it is turn by turn.apc are not even as ruthless as pdp obj did not tolerate any opposition.as apc and pdp is presently constituted,apc will keep winning aso rock...


Obaseki is a small boy in politics.ize iyamu is a senior man,the best in edo.he has been in politics since 1999 at the top level.he is just like wike in rivers.obaseki was made governor by oshio,he has little or no structure.even without federal might,he lost narrowly.he now has it.being a governor means nothing.most edo politicians will prefer pastor to obaseki.even odubu is far ahead of obaseki...
Look at it this way without making it too hard for you to understand. Suspended or sacked as at 7pm two days ago Oshiomole lost hisbparty membership and status. He acknowledged it. As it presently stands his exco is not recognized. While he battles in the courts the politics of the state moves on with the Obaseki faction and whoever emerges their leader.

The contributions of the PDP people cannot be taken away. They already helped APC get power enjoyed by them today.

You do not seem to understand politics. No one is underrated and no one is to be overrated because politics is a game of interest. You can retire your godfather. That's what Oshiomole did and he retired Anenih.

APC now have a run for their money later this year.

You are not getting it..those people that sacked oshiomhole were already suspended...the nwc recognises imuse faction.anyway,all that will be argued at the courts....

You pdp fans are too emotional.so politicians that arw famed for lies are the ones you will now believe? So because shuaibu said he will follow obaseki,he means it from his heart? Arw you in his heart? A politician will always follow where his interests are protected.so where best will his future interests be protected?

Even a kid knows that pastor iyamu will never be loyal to oshiomhole,he will be worse than obaseki and oshiomhole needs true loyalty which he can get from only odubu.the major power behind edo pdp is pastor and he has been lured away from pdp.you can see how weak the remaining pdp aspirants are.don't be surprised if odubu wins that ticket...whoever wins the ticket does not need to deal with any faction.he can always buy over anslem ojezua afterall obaseki bought him over from oshiomhole. Its politics,no sentiments attached..

Pdp lost to apc not just because of over confidence.apc were simply better. They may not be fantastic in performing but will always thrash pdp at the election ground.take a look at second us and oshiomhole and their electoral records.

In essence,this is another buhari vs atiku situation and you know how it will end.obaseki can still win but the chances are low
If they were truly sacked, how did the Federal high court and Court of Appeal back the sacking of Oshiomole as the national chairman and a member of the APC.

APC were never better than PDP. Do not forget that for APC to become a nationally accepted party, many hugely PDP men joined them and made it work. Take a close look at APC and you'll find that aside from Buhari and Tinubu, the major playing powers in APC are former PDP men.

If APC always thrashed PDP at elections why are some telling us all of federal might/power? Take off security personnel, money and thugs and you'll see how it plays out.
