My name missing from voters’ register — Ngige
National News Feb 1, 2010 …lauds INEC’s preparation

By Emmanuel Aziken

ABUJA—Dr. Chris Ngige, the Action Congress, AC, candidate in this weekend’s gubernatorial election in Anambra State is not on the voters’ register for the election, his campaign organisation revealed yesterday.

The Chris Ngige Campaign Organisation has nevertheless, affirmed confidence in the abilities of the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, to conduct a hitch free election and to remedy the errors so far discovered in the voters’ register released by INEC.
The Director of Communications of the Ngige Campaign Organisation, Chief Charles Amilo in a statement in Abuja yesterday affirmed the candidate’s satisfaction with INEC’s arrangements for the elections.

“The immediate release of the new or additional registers as INEC termed it is crucial for the success of the poll. The names of thousands of voters in many electoral wards, including our candidate, Dr. Ngige are currently missing from the registers so far displayed by the INEC,” the campaign organisation said.

i find it difficult to reconcile both statements. Wonders shall never end in Naija.

^^^^ For now u cannot contest as an independent in Nigeria. U need to belong to a party to contest an election. we all are hoping that the laws will be ammended to favour the independents.

me think he bought it

Wao vangogh really beat me to this analysis of OBJ tenure. i was about stating almost all he listed. However, i will like to re-emphasise some part vangogh's writeup>>>>>

OBJ was by a long shot the best president Nigeria has ever produced.
What most detractors of OBJ do not realize is that it takes a lot of ingenuity to get anything done in Nigeria because of the many opposing interests
groups in every nook and cranny of Nigeria who at all costs want to service their own interests via the treasury.
For OBJ to keep power, he had to rule the way he did. How many presidents can survive their terms with the threat of impeachment
looming over their heads every second? OBJ survived because [b]he understood the system[/b]Perfectly(Dont know of any1 for now who does for now) and he realized that [b]he had to give and take.[/b]Does anyone remember the furniture allowance saga? OBJ almost got impeached for that crap


Welldone Vangogh!!!!

^^^^^The Drama is still enfolding

I av always known these. its no news to me.

@ Koolkamzzy

1) U can never tell but i will admit that the probability of her re-marrying will be low.

2) Abeg each to his own oooo. i just told u my belief and others will tell u theirs. Infact some will even tell u that as long as u av done what is expected from you in this world u will rewarded with 7 Virgins in the afterworld. Abeg each to his own oooo.

3) I will advise u open a thread on the religious forum and lets trash this issue . will speak out my mind there.

Cheers

lemme try and answer your questions

koolkamzzy:
Some question i like to ask

1. If it was Pastor Bimbo, would she be allowed to get married or would she think of getting married?

No one would av stopped her if she decides to re-marry if she lost her husband. her tinking of gettin married again would av been her personal decision

2. When Pastor Taiwo gets to heaven or paradise, who will he choose or is there no husband and wife in heaven?

There is no wife or husband thing in heaven

3. How many bone of his (Pastor Taiwo) bone did God creat or is there nothing like bone of my bone?


Well, me tink its only one bone but God also provided through the words of the Apostle that spouses that loses(Losses through death oooo and not broken relationship) their partner can go ahead to re-marry if they so wish

All the same, I think it's better for him to avoid fornication and more sin

Yes now, infact, as long as the kids are in support _{(not a must though to some, but its good to have such)}, Abeg pastor, fire on jare.

Chei, i must admit that Pastor is Lucky in this world ooo. First, it was beautiful pastor Bimbo and now this beauty. its welll ooooo

^^^ eeyah so sori for him. the guy will av to re-consider his political future

Fhemmmy:
Another propaganda

Fhemmy, i honestly dont think so. this are simply my views that i am entitled to and not from one sycophant[

Fhemmmy:
Well said, but like u said, we either misusing the meaning of 'best'

i also dont think so. Reasons below>>>>>>

You bet, he is not even close.
Like the guy that was arguing that there was more money flowing in OBJ's time, there were more money during the time of IBB, now does that make him the best head of state that ever lived?

[/quote]In terms of annual budgetary figures, there were more money in the hands of Goverment during the time of OBJ than IBB. Cost of crude during OBJ's time was more expensive than IBB's and production capacity was also more even despite skimishes from the Niger Delta.

[quote author=princekevo link=topic=385829.msg5384111#msg5384111 date=1264439758]Nigerians are very funny atimes.
I think we are misunderstanding or abusing this english word BEST.
How can someone be the best among the worst. Nigeria since independent had ever had the worst government in the world, we never had any good one, not even a better one, suddenly we have the best president emerging.
Abudusalam rule for how many months?, Abacha was a military leader, Shenikon was there for how many months?, IBB a military leader, Muritala was there for how many months?, Gowon's tenure was full Civil war, Ironsi was there for how many months?, Tafawa belewa was there for how long.

We are talking abt uninterupted 8years of democracy, and you are listing military regime.  If military regime was comparable why do we then spend so much to hold uphold democaracy. The fourth Nigerian republic that brought OBJ to power was the only sucessfull democratically elected government that last for a complete 2 tenures of 8years, there is less or nothing to show for it and some folks are here labelling him as the best.
Have you asked yourself, What if the first republic with  Nnamdi Azikiwe had a successful 8 years of democarcy, what if the 2nd republic of Shehu shagari had an 8years of democracy, and what if the dream of the 3rd republic of Abiola was actualized? Will people like OBJ boost of any success with what you called achievements after 8years.

OBJ is nothing but the worse among the worst. If you dont know Failure can be graded, and whatever grade you assumed that does not change the fact that you are still a failure. ObJ is a failure to Nigerian and saying he is the best among the dead(worst) is an abnormal use of that english word Best.

I did say that he is the best LEADER we av had so far be it military, civillian or even interim and i stand by it.we are not only talking about democratic governments here but all goverments that has been oppurtuned to stir the affairs of this nation and this forms my basis. (will probably need this clarrification from the poster to understand what he has in mind) i agree with u that in terms of leadership qualities, Nigeria has been unfortunate to av the worst of leaders this nation can give to govern her but hey we cant change history. they were still our leaders(all of them ) and neither u or I (even though will want to) can change that fact. I personally considered so many factors and i tried to weigh how these our previous leaders (elected and by coup) has faired and i feel OBJ comes top (though with enuf blunders on his doorsteps)

Yes i av and infact i honestly feel the outcome would av been 50-50. (_{Azikwe, Abiola ok but pls not Shagari. Infact i dont want to go into that. not now).} Anytin could av happened(Good or bad) though enuf good potentials were in these people but hey, i dont need to bother myself on these becos it never came to past and it will never so i am working on what has happened and currently happening

I respect your views and i think they are cool. i pray for the time when we Nigerians will stop settling for mediocrity but instead the best of the best as leaders. that exactly is when i feel those desires of urs which honestly are also mine (Good governance and responsible leadership) will be actualised but till then >>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Peace

^^^ Didnt get that

^^^^ MAMANGOZI

Me thinks he needs deliverance

Going through ur profile, i wonder why the chap keep chasing u the guy na hard man oooo. me i go fear ooooo seeing what i am seeing

Kidding,

EEyah, pele. since u are in naija, u can hire someone to watch ur back for u now or better still report to the police( yes, report to the police)

Omo Wafi wan ja b4 doomsday.

princekevo:
And you think that made him the best president so far? Suffering has changed our mentality and sense reasoning, that we now love to be identified with failures. In a developed country people like OBJ should shut up and hide their face in shame, but in Nigeria we identify him as a great mesaiah, we praise him as the best. Bush failed the US, for over a year now no one heard of him until the haiti earthquake, but OBJ is busy telling more lies to cover up his evil deeds.

Pls, who do u think is the Best leader SO FAR

OBJ? Abdulsalam? Abacha? sonekan? Babangida? Buhari? Sagari? Muritala/OBJ? Gowon? Ironsi? or Tafewa balewa?

Choose 1.

But come to think of it>>>>>> what about his wife? Kids (if any), siblings, parents, aunts uncles? thugs ? even his campaign staffs? Only God knows whom those ones voted for.

I cant help but laugh loud. A whole Honourable>>>>>>>>>> 1 Gad damn Vote

MamaNgozi, Abegiii the day just break here. Let me go out for my daily bread.
Greetings to NgoZi

^^^^ I never supported his third term Agenda. Infact i was viciously against it but if i was asked to choose only between OBJ's third term and what we av presently>>>>>> Believe me, i wont think twice. Its easy,isnt it??

Hehehehehe na so we see am ooo.

^^^ u are welkom. Not to worry, As far as i am concerned u are MaMANgozi.

Lovely pictures. love them all.

Obj made several blunders when in was in power(Much was expected from him considering all the resources within his power, but he gave less) but me thinks he is the best leader we av had so far.

didnt find this funny when i came across it>>>>>> F.U.>C>K JESUS

I think its high time Haitians pick up senegal's offer.

^^^^ Yes it is. We av shining examples from our Reverend fathers and Priests
