If u want to talk Sh*t about ur So called state Ebonyi, visit am 1st..... Peace.. Unu jokwa

what are you talking about? I'm from Ebonyi state and since I heard the news yesterday, I was so shocked that I don't even know what to say.. Why is the ediot wasting our money buying expensive SUV for legislators that does virtually nothing? Why didn't he buy one of these Toyota sedan cars that is cheaper? What happened to Inosson? With 5m each, innoson can make a very nice official car for them.. I support the OP, the governor goofed on this one.. So all the tax the masses are paying through their is just for them to live a luxury life? We will mobilize and send a strong message to them starting from the legislators.. Anyone seen driving that SUV should be dealt by the masses.. Nonsense

Bunch of idiotic animals parading themselves are leaders.. .. May devil punish all of them there

As long as everyone culpable is prosecuted, I'm in support. But when you try to technically exonerate your own (Dambazzau) and prosecute our own (Ihejirika), we will not take it..

I think the president has failed in his job as the cso of the country.. On true federalism we stand!!

80% northerners and Ibe Kachukwu is almost a figure head.. It's OK. .. I hope some stupid southerners are learning

nwadiuko1:
who wants to bet? Ikpeazu will come out of all this...victorious?....


it may play out like this.....abang okon grants the stay of execution on Thursday,
the Federal High Court owerri rules in favour of ikpeazu on the same day ( note Abia board of internal revenue has clarified the issue in contention)...........then........we l wait for okezie's appeal judgement and FN nwosu's appeal (which is very unlikely)........... who wants to bet? 100k

They knew that the judge gave a biased judgement hence, they were in a hurry to smuggle Ogah into the government house but Ikpeazu played a fast one on them as new aba guy

All this APC guys jubilating don't even understand jack about this judgement.. SMH for you people.. Justice Olin Abang knew that he gave a biased judgement and is likely to be revised in appeal court hence, he is already looking for soft landing via undertable negotiation.. The

Abia IRS coming out to clarify that the tax certificate is genuine nailed the coffin so, Ikpeazu is going no where because the stay of execution will be granted on Thursday and Ikpeazu will go ahead to win at the appellate court.

Ask yourself, why is law enforcement agencies n FG foot dragging on executing the court order? It's because they knew that justice Abang gave a biased judgement so, FG don't want to mess themselves up in the case. Even the AGF is courtous in his press release.

rexbuton:


We can't discuss because there is a huge difference between us, you are a staunch PDP supporter, and I do not belong to any party. I need someone with clear thoughts

But POI was Oshiomole's right hand man throughout his early days as governor.. Do you mind telling us what happened?

Same thing I was saying, wait for the appeal and supreme court's decision..

MaziOmenuko:
^^ kahal29 I couldn't agree with u more. Especially in your last paragraph; I wonder what kind of judicial teams he set up to handle his case. It is really bad.

First of all, this isnt an Electoral case and as such, his legal team should have activated his immunity clause which prevents him to be tried on any case of forgery be it criminal or otherwise. If they had done this, the case would have stalled until ikpeazu finishes his tenure. They went to court for a governor that enjoys immunity, that's the height of stupidity.

Then they filed for stay and appeal without pushing for accelerated hearing. How difficult is it to get an appeal court judge to hear your case immediately he sees a credit alert of N13mil in his account? This is not rocket science.

It will be interesting to see how things unfold on Monday. He will have to prove to the court why he will get a stay if it's not health related or an emergency of any sort. The court will just tell him that it's not an emergency, he can come to court from his house, it won't stop them from hearing his appeal nor grant him justice thereafter.

Why is Ogar in a hurry to be sworn in? .. Ikpeazu has the right to appeal and that's what he is doing.. If he is doing something illegal, the FG would've directed police IG to evict him from government house.. All this rambling from some lawyers are just interest groups who just want to serve their own selfish interest.

kahal29:


Tell them oh...... Even the stay of execution they are now praying for would be very hard to get because....... Like I argued elsewhere

No court will deprive a judgment creditor the fruits of his Labour.

Meaning that if Ikpeazu thinks he will get a stay on monday as temporary relief then he should think again.

Like T.S Ogundaini. ESQ said

Normally, no court will want to grant a stay of execution as a matter of course and that is why an applicant seeking this discretion of the court in his favour must therefore show special or exceptional circumstances why the court must deprive a successful litigant, the fruits of his success---See the following cases SPDC v. Arlio-Joe (Nig.) Ltd. (2003) 1 NWLR pt 845 pg 19, Dada v. I.T.L (2005) 11 NWLR pt.936 pg 293

Secondly, A successful litigant (Ogah) is entitled to enjoy the benefits and reap the fruits of his judgment and nothing ordinarily should be done to obstruct this right. In the words of Niki Tobi , JCA (as he then was) in Lijadu v. Lijadu (1991) 1 NWLR (Pt. 169) 627 at 644, nothing should be done to make the victorious party leave the court in "victory" without victory.


This case is very bad it doesn't look good at all. If not the Governor would involved the man who defended him at the tribunal ie Chief Wole Olanikpekun. See, A lot of legal blunders were committed on the Governor's part. Its only the grace of God that can save Ikpeazu now.

Then if you are convinced that no court will grant Ikpeazu's stay of execution pray, why then is the said Ogar in a hurry to become governor? That shows that something is fishy.. If the seat belongs to Ogar, he will surely get it at the end but in the main time, Ikpeazu must exhaust all his legal right to the end before vacating office if the higher courts says so. So Ogar should just relax..

Am a proud *EBONYI* boy, Afikpo North precisely. The place is fast developing that is just the truth, but the problem is that most people still have the view of yesteryear about ebonyi state and as such, are misguided in their assertion.
Great people

Once the state is safe and he stabilize the power generation then inventor will come and job opportunities will be created.
Area I think will attract investor include the Nkalagu cement company, the Amasiri and ezzamgbo quarry, the uburu and okposi salt lake and host of others.

I also read there oil deposit in Ebonyi(though not huge) I think the federal government should also beam it searchlight there just like they are doing in lake Chad basin.

You are very correct.. There is oil deposit in Afikpo but I think it's good we forget about oil for now and focus on other solid minerals.. There are huge deposits of minerals scattered in every community of the state which are still lying fallow. We have large expanse of arable lands for agriculture which is also a huge investment area. This is one the of the reasons I want true federalism so that every State should go and cater for her needs, this will force us to go inwards and bring out the best in us.

Ucheosefoh:
Who is talking about bragging I am talking of promotion, you guys should promote your state to shut those people with negative mindset about it up, you promote your state to attract investors, we are in digital world so people don't go to a location to know how it looks, sites like nairaland and others can be used to promote your state. You wonder why Peter of Psquare is getting more endorsement deals than his brothers, promotion, dude can promote himself like hell.

I get you and you have a point.. We will surely start doing that.. Thanks for encouragement.

Mrpoker:


Three flyovers at a time?
And still not owing workers? Yet Saraki despite the high rate of revenue being generated in Bayelsa state and federal allocation additional to 13 oil derivation constructed just one single monkey bridge and called it flyover.

Yes I'm telling you, just that the tax regime in Ebonyi now is very very tight ... But I'm happy because the masses is not deterred, instead it motivated everybody to work harder. The governor should more in the area of job opportunities not government job, rather make the economy of the state to be more attractive to investors, increase in population to boost commercial and other economic activities..

Ucheosefoh:
Ebonyi guys here don't promote their state like others I wonder why

We don't brag.. Our achievements in the nearest years will speak for us.

I'm from Ebonyi and OP is 100% right.. There are so many wonderful areas that OP didn't capture but I will do that when the 3 flyovers under construction are completed. I passed through the site yesterday and found out that the contractors has resumed work again.. 3 flyovers at a time.. That's wow.. Meanwhile, Ebonyi IGR for 2015 is N23 billion.. I don't know why it wasn't captured in the national IGR publication and I tell you that this years own will be close to 30 billion. Kudos to Dave but he should try more in creating job opportunities by attracting investors to the state.. He is not doing well in terms of marketing the state so, he should try more in that area..

Also my bro CyberWolf is from Ebonyi but I think he is on 4 months ban.. There are so many wonderful Ebonyi guys and babes but we don't just like to brag because we don't see these as anything. We are not where we're suppose to be so, there is nothing to brag about.

jmichlins:
Sometimes i want to believe that this corruption fight is not sectional but this government keep giving me reasons to think otherwise. Properties worth $1.5m and you tell us you worked for it doing what and what. Even the government rose to his defence. 2019 please come for there are decisions to make

You voted for change.. ntoooooooooooooooooooooooorrrrrrrrr

The coward is afraid.. They are only good in terrorizing harmless civilians and women..

mrvitalis:

Did u read the part that said he got it through personal savings and had Declared it in his asset declaration form?

Rather than insulting put forward your argument. Is this how you intend to manage biafra? Very unfortunate.

I don't argue with a brainwashed zombie like you.. If you can't learn a thing or two from what is happening around you and open your eyes, I'm afraid your case is irredeemable and there is nothing I can do for you.. Keep fooling yourself there, you hear..

amaechi1:


30 % potentials. My brother between 1994-2001, Aba and Onitsha were known for shoe and belt production. People come different countries to buy. But some us who romance their way to corridor of power liaise with the power that be to lift the ban on the importation of those items to that they can import from Italy or Spain for quick turn over. Aba and Onitsha industries went under.

it may surprise to know that when west were busy offering scholarship for the children to school to reshape their future, most our parent would prefer her wards to go and learn trade for quick money.

It may surprise to note that during ObJ leadership, the Igbo were strategically place in most ministry as minster, we did not complain. But for 16 years, Enugu- Onitsha road did not receive attention. Rather, our political class were busy struggling for oil and gas business in Sao tome etc.

Our brother prof bath Nnaji from Enugu state- Minister of power was at the verge of solving the power issue, but our own from SS/SE due to their selfish interest muscle him away. The rest is history.

My brother, remember our region is land lock and most of people has invested outside the Igbo land. How would survive is the bubble show burst. God forbid. The early 60s to 70s is different now. Let ask our leader to tell us the truth and face good governace with the little we have and gunning for the big and fail completely.

Buy and selling from china or outside country will not grow your region, r

Just shut the fvck up this slave.. I have been watching you spitting thrash here since .. Have you ever heard the word.. necessity is the mother of invention?

Clowns everywhere.. So you just wasted your time writing this thrash to defend dangote and spite those defending BMB? You all are the same.. Shameless sycophants!!!

This old man ought to go respect his.. Mr of, you are too old to be young.. Haba

The idiot is a gonner and he knows it..

dustmalik:
Isn't it commonsensical that she and her family are in protective custody? I wonder how some idiotic fools think. Commonsense is, indeed, uncommon.

shaking my head for you .. I remember you vehemently denied the gruesome killing of an Igbo woman in Kano, and when it was proved beyond reasonable doubt that it happened, you were no where to be found. Aren't you ashamed of yourself? SMH again for you..

I sincerely pray they're found safe and sound, calabar is however not in the country's South East, do make the correction.
