Words truly don't die. Coming generations should please take note.
ochejoseph:
‎Femi Gbajabiamila may have tasted the bitter Pill he fed the PDP in 2011.

As Leader of the then ACN Femi did all the ground work that led subversion of the will of the then PDP  and the emergence of Tambuwal al as speaker by a wide  margin of 250 to 90. 
 
This evening Femi tasted an even more painful defeat losing by a very slim Margin to Dogara who beat Femi using the tactics of subversion created By Femi Gbajabiamila himself !!!! What a world!!!

See what Femi Told Channels on the Tambuwal issue below!!!



 
Tambuwal Was Made Speaker By House Members Not PDP – Gbajabiamilla 

The Nigerian House of Representatives Minority Leader, Femi Gbajabiamila, has dismissed the Peoples Democratic Party’s demand that the Speaker of the House, Aminu Tambuwal, who defected to the All Progressives Congress (APC) on Tuesday should do the needful, saying it is a threat that bears no consequence on the speaker.


 
Mr Gbajabiamila stressed that the Speaker was elected by the members of the House across all the political parties and not just the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) members.


But for Mr Gbajabiamila, the demand by PDP is an empty threat that the speaker is not expected to obey, since he, Tambuwal had not enjoyed the support of the PDP right from the day he was picked as the speaker in deviance to PDP’s choice of candidate.

Hear Femi

“The members decided to chose him based on the stipulations of the constitution.

“He did not come to the speakership of the House through the PDP. The PDP does not want him any longer. They have tried to remove him several times, so he has to leave the party.



“I can’t understand the pain of PDP, he came in as speaker not basically as a result of PDP support but as a result of support of the entire house. He had over 250 votes while the PDP nominee had only 90 votes. It was because of the support of the members of the the House that he became the speaker. It tells you how much support he has in the House.‎



“I don’t see anything changing that much and the sooner that the PDP understand that if the members of the House says they want a person as a speaker, that is who the House wants,” he added.

Nairaland GeneralMan Rides Bicycle From Kaduna To Lagos To Thank Yorubas For Voting Buhari-osinba by Crown01(op): 7:58am On Apr 28, 2015
A 35-year-old Kaduna-born cyclist and supporter of the president-elect Gen Buhari and Professor Osinbajo, Mohammed Kabiru Jafaru, has embarked on a bicycle ride from Kaduna to Lagos to meet with the vice president-elect, Professor Yemi Osinbajo in Lagos State as a way to show his appreciation to the Yorubas for voting en-mass for the Buhari-Osinbajo ticket during last election.

Mohammed started his journey to Lagos at exactly 6: 35am at the palace of Sarkin Hayin Malam Bello, Alhaji Kabiru Isa Gangarida yesterday April 27th.

“I have decided to embark on this journey to Lagos because I want to go and thank Yoruba people for their immense support and contributions that led to the victory of General Muhammadu Buhari during the March 28 presidential election. The decision to undertake the journey came to my mind after analysing the votes cast for Buhari by the Yoruba people and after I discussed my intention with my immediate family and friends, they encouraged me to go on the journey.”he told journalist

PoliticsFatal Presidential Mistakes: How Gej Lost It All by Crown01(op): 4:49pm On Apr 21, 2015
An exhaustive probe of the key flip-flops that led to President Goodluck Jonathan’s defeat and how the President lost the goodwill that earned him victory in 2011. Read below:
ONLY unrealistic optimists were surprised that President Goodluck Jonathan lost Nigeria’s keenly contested poll.


The pointers to what was imminent for the Peoples Democratic Party ,PDP, were so discernible in the build up, that the President in the days leading to the poll admitted the surging popularity of the opposition meant that his party would not secure a landslide in the presidential, parliamentary and governorship contests.

Though he explicitly affirmed that he was not losing sleep over the development, the pre-election
electoral map was such that rubbished every optimism he may have had.

Vague public perception

The president may have redeemed his public image with his graceful acceptance of defeat. His effort suddenly turned him into a hero in defeat.

But beyond that, when the books are written, certain issues would some aspects of the defeat are likely to be attributed to the President’s tolerance of some issues and persons that combined to suppress his onetime electoral invincibility.

Among the key issues were the :Nigeria Governors Forum, NGF, crisis, Chibok girls saga, alleged missing Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation, NNPC, funds, mismanaged relationships, withdrawal of Alhaji Aminu Tambuwal’s aides, fallout of PDP primaries and poor presidential campaign strategy/communication.

NGF crisis

In the reckoning of the presidency, the NGF became more of a trade union with irritating activism. It was this notion that remotely birthed the leadership crisis that trailed the NGF chairmanship election.

With Governor Chibuke Amaechi, who then was regarded as an antagonist of the President, defeating Jonathan’s candidate, Governor Jonah Jang, with 19 votes to 16, observers had expected the President to beckon on Jang to drop his claims to the group’s leadership.

To the chagrin of the nation, the body language of the presidency was such that confirmed suspicions that it created the script Jang was acting upon.

The recognition of the Jang faction by the President not minding the fact that the latter lost the election, was a move that to some extent, questioned the presidency’s moral integrity.

A direct consequence of that, led to the implosion of the ruling PDP which manifested through the defection of Governors Aliyu Wammako, Rabiu Kwankwaso, Murtala Nyako, Abdulfatah Ahmed, and Amaechi.

Apart from Rivers State where the president had substantial votes, he lost in the domains of the defected governors.

Chibok girls saga

The abduction of over 200 girls from Government Secondary School, Chibok, further exposed the fault lines inherent in the Federal Government’s approach to the insurgency in the Northeast geo political zone.

It was a shock to a bewildered world when Governor Kassim Shettima of Borno State said the President waited until after two weeks before he spoke to him on the matter.

Trailing that was the First Lady, Mrs. Patience Jonathan’s encounter with officials of the state over the issue and turned herself into a global comic on the issue.

Mrs. Jonathan’s supposed concern further incensed many, who found the treatment meted out to the state delegation which included the principal of the school as condemnable.

Indeed, the two incidents and related developments showed a government that was out of touch with the security of the citizenry.

The President later attributed his silence to his desire not to compromise the details of security efforts to rescue the girls, his general approach largely blighted his re-election chances.

Alleged missing oil money/Lamido Sanusi

At a time when the mood of the country suggested that the war against institutionalized corruption had ebbed under Jonathan’s watch, the official response to allegations of missing oil money at the NNPC was considered unsatisfactory.

The failure of the government to investigate those accused and the suspension of the then Central Bank Governor, Lamido Sanusi, who blew the whistle further angered many.

In the reckoning of most Nigerians, who had long desired a probe of the oil sector, the President was being protective of his appointees at the expense of public probity.

Redefinition of corruption

Whether semantics or not, the implication of the President’s statement to the effect that ‘’stealing is not corruption’’ was damaging.

Speaking on nationwide television during a media chat, he had said

‘’Over 70 percent of what are called corruption cases, even by the EFCC and other anti-corruption agencies, is not corruption, but common stealing, ‘’ he stated, adding that corruption claims were ‘’politically motivated.’’

For a populace embittered by the fact that despite allegations of corruption against public officials, the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, did not record any high profile conviction under Jonathan, the presidential pronouncement was seen as provoking.

Failure to call Dokubo, Clark to order

The threats of fire and brimstone should the President lose the poll by his kinsmen, notably Chief Edwin Clark, Chief Government Ekpemupolo and Alhaji Mujahid Asari Dokubo, were likened to drums of war, informing calls on the President to disassociate himself from the duo.

Interestingly, the nation was united in this call, as the Nigerian Labour Congress, clergy, traditional rulers spoke in unison.

Though the PDP asked the trio to be mindful of what they said at that period of time, President Jonathan was not known to have publicly reprimanded them.

Fallout of party primaries

The outcome of PDP primaries into various offices left nothing to be desired by aggrieved party members.

In its familiar intra-party political culture, the resentment arising from the contests across the country, were treated in a manner that threatened internal cohesion in the party.

Irked by the situation, some party chieftains with electoral values, defected to the All Progressives Congress, APC, making the PDP electorally vulnerable.

In states like Enugu, Akwa Ibom, Benue, Ebonyi, Cross River, where the outcome of governorship primaries factionalized the party, a profound presidential comfort or intervention would have assuaged aggrieved members.

Another undoing was the president’s tolerance of the hijacking of the PDP party structures by the state governors, which directly led to so much impunity at the state chapters.

However, whether the President played some trouble shooting roles, is a matter of debate between his admirers and critics.

Mismanaged relationships

Another fatal error was the mismanagement of some political alliances at the expense of the President’s electoral value.

Names like Amaechi, Bukola Saraki, Olusegun Obasanjo easily come to mind in this regard, as these men variously played decisive roles at some points in Jonathan’s political trajectory.

Poor campaign strategies/communication

Even the most loyal admirers of the President had no issue conceding that he hardly brought anything new to the table during the presidential campaigns.

From the PDP flag-off in Lagos to the grand finale in Abuja, observers found his message empty and literally full of noise.

Specifically, the language was more of attacks on the APC, its presidential candidate and past leaders.

So concerned were analysts over the content of the campaign statements that some were alarmed that the President spent close to an hour delivering his speech at the PDP flag-off campaign without being able to explain what he had done in the last six years or what he would do if re-elected.
