They were all salivating at the prospect of oil blocks that Peter Obi would share to them. Somebody like Kenneth Okonkwo was already seeing himself lifting crude oil after living in Obi's bondage.

It's a lie. They didn't invade or break in. They went with valid court order. But the Julius Abure-led IPOB funded excos of labour party doesn't believe in courts that why Peter Obi and Datti prefer religious wars and interim government respectively. However, democracy must prevail and it is good to see the genuine labour party members recover their party from Yes Daddy terrorists.

I talk am say after Obidunce is defeated this one will return back to posting Google pictures of Anambara

The real labour party members are taking back their party from IPOB terrorists and Yes Daddy, Thank You Daddy coup plotters.

It isn't surprising. Peter Obi is a pathological liar. Someone who lies shamelessly. Lied about wearing only one wristwatch for 17 years. Lied about leaving 75 billion naira for his successor. Lied about his failure in governance until Governor Soludo exposed him for the thief and fraud that he is. This is an audio conversation that Bishop Oyedepo has not denied. I am sure that if it was fake, Oyedepo in his usual character, would have rained curses on whoever tried to portray him in bad light. Peter Obi is a criminal who should be arrested and tried for inciting religious violence in Nigeria. His mentality is not different from his IPOB terrorist supporters.

People who lose elections and refuse to accept reality usually end up arrested because they are actually hiding some dirty stuff they want to hide with political power. Like Trump, like Obi.

Agbakoba is talking like an illiterate who bought his SANship. The tribunal is allowed 180 days to decide all petitions and it is only sensible for them to utilize all the time allowed to be thorough in their job. Those asking for them to rush to judgement before May 29th are the coup plotters and Agbakoba may be one of them.

See them. Terrorists looking for religious war in Nigeria.

Falz is part of the endsars gang of Labour party. All they did was steal and destroy. They want a lawless society where criminals like yahoo boys are allowed to enjoy their ill gotten wealth without any disturbance.

Who says opposition parties cannot collaborate with the ruling party in matters of national interest? Nyesom Wike is not playing politics of bitterness like Obi Pandora and his Ipob bandwagon of Yes Daddy religious extremists and separatists.

For every infraction or negligence of duty that Seun Okinbaloye commits on his show, Channels will be penalized with fines. We are watching him closely. Channels have money to give away so he can continue to break the law no wahala.

Igbos provide us entertainment as opposition. Let Igbos play their role as opposition while APC rewards loyal supporters with Senate President from South South or North Central.

When Omo Agege started fraternizing with IPOB terrorist Obidunces in Delta state falling for their social media hype, was when I knew he was headed for defeat. Even President elect Bola Tinubu will not look his face. He is just angry with Madam Onochie because President Buhari chose her for the NDDC job over his selected list of cronies.

Igbos disgracing themselves all over the country. Just look at what arrogance and pride has reduced Igbos to. Even the Ijaws now have more political value than Igbos.

Seun Okinbaloye is a below average journalist, truth be told. He is a fraud who is always trying hard to mimic Wolf Blitzer and Richard Quest of CNN all at once in his Politics Today show but still can't measure up. He is not real at all. He has no good command of English language unlike many of his colleagues in Channels. I don't know what Chief Momoh was thinking to give him his own show at such prime time.

Governor Nyesom Wike has done very well for his Ikwerre people. He made them realize that they are not slaves to Igbos or any other tribe for that matter. They will never forget him.

They can go if they want to. Nobody is stopping them. Those foreign remittances are now larger than oil revenues. Some will even return later on their own after racist abuses there.

Peoples gazatte should pray that someone doesn't sue their asses and the matter lands on the CJN's desk. Even if he recuses himself from the case, his colleagues in the bench will do the needful. These guys toying with the highest authority in the country are playing with fire.

E pain Ipobs well well that a Yoruba who is also a Muslim, is CJN.

No pictures from Ipob gossip mill?

God bless Professor Charles Soludo for his generosity.

Rufai Oseni needs strong minded people to be challenging him often. Ayo Fayose is soft spoken but was still able to jilt Oseni during the exchanges. Imagine then what will happen if Nyesom Wike confronts Oseni with his intimidating voice

Thought it was something serious. People who gather at unity fountain are usually social media noisemakers and drunkards.

Enugu state will join APC in the future. Peter Mbah is a Lagos boy.

BOLATINUBU01:
He grew up in the west

He may join APC in the future because his business is flourishing in Tinubu's Lagos and his close ties with Chimaroke Nnamani. I prefer him to the LP candidate and it is pleasing to see Enugu state power brokers firmly behind him.

Successful entrepreneurs know that Tinubu is a blessing to Nigeria. Only riff-raff IPOB supporters are opposed to Jagaban.

President-elect Bola Tinubu will carry Rivers state along with his administration.

A good project but they should put border checkpoints at the border point of the rail line to check influx of illegal aliens and contraband.

Those arguing that 25% is compulsory for FCT are very mischievous. Because the Supreme Court ruled so in 2008 or whenever in a previous case is inconsequential today because Supreme court judgements are not laws in themselves but simply interpretation of laws. That interpretation can change in another case depending on the arguments that the lawyers put forward. There are many instances of such in the history of the supreme court.

Now to the case. The electoral act states that a candidate vying for President must get 25% of the votes in two-thirds of the states and the FCT. The argument is focused on the interpretation of the word and. Keep in mind that Nigeria as a whole is the President's constituency and the FCT is just the seat of office.

But regardless of how "and" is interpreted, both parties on either side agree that the constitution of Nigeria is superior to any other law that is at variance with it, including that contentious electoral act. So, what did the constitution say regarding the FCT?

The constitution says that the FCT should be regarded as a state. It is in plain black and white. In simple terms, it means that the FCT should be treated same way as Lagos state, Borno state, Bayelsa state and the other 33 states. That means the FCT is considered equal and not inferior or superior to each and every one of the 36 states.

In practice, is it so. Yes. But in unique circumstances. The FCT has a minister appointed by the President overseeing its affairs but the states have elected governors doing same. Therefore the President can be considered the defacto governor of the FCT.

The same way state governors are required to win 25% in two-thirds of the local government areas in their states to be elected governor but there is no compulsion to win 25% in the local government area where each state capital city is situate, is same way the President is not under compulsion to win the FCT given the constitutional equality of the states and the FCT.

It is simple and straightforward. Those mentioning 2008 must know that the judgement then is not cast in stone and judges can deviate from precedent if a valid argument persuade them. Judges are not immune from mistakes. So let that be clear. In the USA for example, the Supreme Court there recently overturned the Roe vs Wade precedent that had stood for decades.

APC has solid lawyers who will argue beautifully along this line and the accepted superiority of the Constitution over the Electoral act gives them the advantage.

God bless President Muhammadu Buhari

God bless President-elect Bola Tinubu

God bless this Federal Republic of Nigeria.

LP from top to bottom

They should torture him well until he apologizes to Governor Soludo for trying to set that state on fire with his lies.
