Good PDP governors!!

God is supreme! No matter who you are , cannot be above God

Ameachi should just eat his poo!

brooklyn49:
Amaechi, respect is a reciprocal! you have no respect for a whole President of a country... so expect none from your subordinate!

Well said!!

'“”You know that we used to have Nigerian Airways,
Nigeria National Shipping Line and Nigeria Railways.
Where are they now? Where is the
infrastructure?'

All these where not caused by PDP all have been dilapidated right from military Era.!!

Its the way of the world when the going is good and smooth many people will be your friend....Take heart. I'll be surprised if you tell me you did not know this will happen.

He tried not leaving debt behind. Governors who leave debt behind are wicked really. Gross mismanagement and stealing

Tinubu should allow the president elect do the repair he wants to do in Nigeria.

@Bonana

Pls provide the source.......of the news

Abagworo:
Amaechi was fought by Jonathan for being against his ambition. How does that make him the divider? Has he ever sponsored an attack? I love Amaechi forever for standing up to Jonathan's unpopular government.

I truely don't care if you lick his ass!

hunri:

Congrats to him we are saying the same thing. So congratulate them also.

crackhouse:
I am sure their parliament is not juicy like we have in Nigeria otherwise the British would have created a law that will ban them from contesting in the first place. They just want to make name and not money.

British is not as corrupt the reason Nigeria should fight corruption. Am happy for them. Thank God

The just concluded general election in Britain has been good to some Nigerian participants, four of who won seats in the British parliament to represent their constituencies. They are;

Chka Umunna

Chuka Harrison Umunna is a British Labour Party politician who has served Streatham as Member of Parliament(MP) since 2010. Umunna is the current Shadow Business Secretary since 2011. Chuka Umunna’s father Bennett, of the Nigerian Igbo ethnic group, died in a road accident in Nigeria in 1992.

His mother, Patricia, is a solicitor and daughter of Sir Helenus Milmo QC, the Anglo-Irish High Court judge. Umunna was educated at Hitherfield Primary School in Streatham, South London, and the Christ Church Primary School in Brixton Hill. He says his parents felt that the local state school had “given up on him” and so moved him to the boys’ independent senior school St Dunstan’s College, in Catford in southeast London, where he played the cello, and became Deputy Head Boy. During this period he was also a chorister at Southwark Cathedral.

He was awarded an upper second class LLB in English and French Law from the University of Manchester; after graduating he studied for one term at the University of Burgundy in Dijon, before studying for an MA at Nottingham Law School. He has said that his politics and moral values come from Christianity, but that he is “not majorly religious”

Helen Grant

Born 28 September 1961, Helen Grant is a British Conservative Party politician and solicitor. She is the current Member of Parliament for Maidstone and The Weald in Kent and the current Minister for Sport, Tourism & Equalities. She was elected at the 2010 general election, replacing the constituency’s previous incumbent, Ann Widdecombe, who had decided to step down as an MP. Grant was the first black woman to be selected to defend a Tory seat and her election made her the Conservatives’ first female black MP.

Grant received her first government appointment in September 2012, when she received the dual roles of Under-Secretary of State for Justice and Under-Secretary for Women and Equalities. Grant was born in Willesden, north London to an English mother and Nigerian father, but grew up in a single parent family after her parents separated and her father emigrated to the United States. She was raised in Carlisle where she lived on the city’s Raffles council estate with her mother, grandmother and great-grandmother.


Chi Onwurah

Chi Onwurah (born 12 April 1965) is a British Labour Party politician, who was elected at the 2010 general election as the Member of Parliament for Newcastle upon Tyne Central, replacing the previous Labour MP Jim Cousins, who decided to step down and left the seat. She is Newcastle’s first black MP. During the depression of the 1930s, Onwurah’s maternal grandfather was a sheet metal worker in Tyneside shipyards. Her mother grew up in poverty in Garth Heads on Newcastle’s quayside. Her father, from Nigeria, was working as a dentist while he studied at Newcastle Medical School when they met and married in the 1950s.

After Chi was born in Wallsend, Newcastle upon Tyne, in 1965, her family moved to Awka, Nigeria when she was still a baby. Just two years later the Biafran Civil War broke out bringing famine with it, forcing her mother to bring the children back to Newcastle, whilst her father stayed on in the Biafran army.

Kate Osamor

National Health Service (NHS) manager Kate Osamor is the Labour Party’s parliamentary candidate for the Edmonton constituency in London after stiff contest with fellow diasporan Kate Anolue. Ms Osamor, who has worked for the NHS for 15 years, is a trade union activist, a women’s charity trustee and a member of the Labour Party’s National Executive Committee. She made funding the NHS, opposing its fragmentation and standing up to government cuts the centrepiece of her campaign.

In a related development, a 20-year-old Scottish student has become Britain’s youngest lawmaker since 1667 — ousting one of Labour’s top figures in the process. Politics student Mhairi Black represents the pro-independence Scottish National Party (SNP), and took Paisley and Renfrewshire South, a constituency outside Glasgow, from Douglas Alexander, Labour’s election chief and a former Cabinet minister

Buhari won't pardon anybody..He is the kinda person that, even if his eye looks in the wrong direction/illegally, he won't hesitate to pluck it out. Let's not forget in a hurry why he divorced his first wife.. He hates corruption soo bad. And time will prove this
