Olodo Op, who started Omatseye's prosecution, Jonathan or Buhari?

I just heard it from the National Convention, Port Harcourt. Instead of their normal power to the people, in response to their acronym PDP, the crowd was shouting "change the change".
Another change mantra again, we won't fall for this deceit this time around because we can't be fooled by another change just as APC did. We must ask the kind of change this time around.

ganisucks:
SAS will still be elected chairman

God forbid, if they want to let them do it in a free and fair election. It shouldn't be a sole candidate

modath:
No sane person can argue this point but because our kind of politics has been so monetized that its return is even more than drug biz, money rituals or even most large scale businesses, greed, selfish interest and elephantine ego won't let people see road.

Everyone is battlling for the soul of the party....

If this in fighting were to be in the interest of the people, everyone would applaud them but not at all, it's all for self aggrandizement.....


Fayose, anywhere he goes problems follow!! One thing is sure, Ali Sheriff won't find it funny with them, after his investment, nothing for him...

SAS is not someone that should be mentioned in the first place, if they had withdrawn their support for him, u would've seen mass exodus from the Party. Thank God they were sensible enough to withdraw his candidature

OLADD:
That's true. PDP has that issue.

If they can shelve their ego as Atiku did to work for Buhari it will take them to the up, but with this spirit of everyone wants to be chairman from Gulak, to Okupe, to Bode George, to Jerry Gana to Fayose. hissssssssss.

bender79:
OK I thought you people said SAS will distabilise APC? Una don get sense abi?

I v never liked that man, he can never be elected as PDP chairman.

bender79:
When SAS himself called a press conference?

dude I am watching it live, the convention just dissolved NWC chaired by that fool called SAS, PDP must be rebuild but not by SAS.
We have the likes of Makarfi of Kaduna, Nuhu Ribadu, Peter Obi etcetera and not ds man call SAS

OLADD:
Realistically, no new party can give APC stern opposition apart from PDP. What the party needs is restructure.

They have so much ego that none can shelve its ambition for the other

gwales:
but, but he is also abo.ki from the `born to rule northerners`

Who cares about where d person comes from? I voted for this useless Buhari because Jonathan na disease, but look at where it has landed us. All I need is someone that will be mostly accepted by Nigerians and not this slowpoke SAS

better, I love Makarfi

very confuse set of people, pls they should collapse the party and form another one

AntidaftMOD:
PDP is the most useless opposition to ever grace the Nigeria's political atmosphere. Shame!

I am with you on this, very useless and full of egos. Why can't Sheriff step down for peace to reign? This is why they lost the election for this devilish apc.
PDP is a house of Fuji.

Illiteracy is a disease .... I suggest a sound education as a sound medication for this disease.

lol, o ma se. aye ti ba je!!! look at who is calling me illiterate. Well it's social media talk as u like. If u c me, fear can't even allow u to come come close to me or ask me out.
pls I don't do kids, I do men and for yo information, I am not as jobless as u r. I can feed u for the rest of this yr and pay yo bills as Tiwa did for Tee bilz

that's my governor and not some juju like governor leading the blind people of Osun. Ambode, Wike and Obiano are my only governors. The rest can go and kiss Buhari's ass.

Stalwert:




Poverty is the reward for serving pdp sote 50 naira mb you fit buy buhahaha

You see y I hate apc today?
Is because of mentalities like yours. I voted for APC in Presidency, Reps, governor (Ambode) and pdp in house of assembly and senate. i am not like u who vote base on party. I am too educated to be celebrating people who are failures. I campaigned for Buhari but what is d outcome today? increment of both goods and services. In an election, I vote base on candidate and not like u who voted for people like Dino, Sarathief, Oluremi Tinubu, Stella Odua the thief and what have you.
my party is good governance

Stalwert:
[s][/s]

may God bestow upon u the ability to reason and coherently respond to posts u read. amen

As for you paid agent of APC, I can't use my hard earn data to reply u, it will be a sheer waste of time

gwales:
are you from kaduna? No. So, how does your response correlate to what he wrote.
Rubbish..

I guess u were not from Rivers before u termed Amaechi the Lion of Niger Delta abi pussy cat of Ubima?
Just as you have right to accord Amaechi the Lion of Niger Delta when you r not from here, so also do I have right to term Sani as the Lion of Kaduna.

dustmalik:
Shehu Sani is politically naive. he is fighting a battle he will never win. It's obvious he has his eyes on the guber race for 2019. As it stands today, El-rufai is the next most popular figure in the north after Buhari, so fighting El-rufai unnecessarily is stupid, especially in his own state. If Shehu Sani is not careful, he will not even be able to win the senate primaries in 2019.

What was d fate of Amaechi in d south south after he abused Jonathan and everybody in the south south? he became and remain valueless as far south south politics is concern, yet u guys termed in Lion of Ubima or Niger Delta. se ti gbo?

ayindejimmy:
I think the Op has a valid point. During the BH insurgence climax we all rebuked the northern elders and politicians for not doing enough to condemn the act.
What's sauce for the goose is sauce for the gander.

You guys have no regard for d man, insult and every bad thing is wished for him so y should he? I tut u guys called him clueless? pls do yo work yo self and let the idiot I mistakenly voted for but decided to make life miserable for us face his cup of tea himself.

TonyeBarcanista:
The PDP Convention scheduled to hold in Portharcourt has been postponed till July. A caretaker committee to be inaugurated.

useless post if u ask me

EazyMoh:
Hmnnn am not sure that's a good Idea.
Re-brand the party
merger with Kowacce APPS and PDM
change the party's name and/or logo
then PDP would have a chance. At least I know they would win some seats back in the North. But defeating PMB is not possible, no matter what.

what was d difference between Buhari and Jonathan despite the unity the north had jn voting buhari except few states in 2015?
U think if another northerner contests will Buhari, he will get those hogwash votes he had jn 2015 ?

Nigeria's government was on Friday accused of exploiting the release of a
Chibok schoolgirl who was found this week, more than two years after she
was seized by Boko Haram.
Amina Ali was found by troops and civilian vigilantes with a four-month-
old baby and a man she said was her husband near the Islamists'
Sambisa Forest enclave in northeast Nigeria on Tuesday.
The 19-year-old and her mother were brought to the capital, Abuja, on
Thursday to meet President Muhammadu Buhari, who said she had
received five hours of medical tests and seen trauma counsellors.
Buhari took office on May 29 last year vowing a swift end to the
insurgency, which has killed at least 20,000 people since 2009.
But Mausi Segun, Nigeria researcher for Human Rights Watch, said
Amina's first days of freedom should have concentrated on her mental
and physical health, as well as that of her daughter.
The government should have protected and respected her dignity "before
you roll the cameras and make political capital out of her recovery", she
told AFP.
Tsambido Hosea Abana, leader of the Chibok community in Abuja, on
Thursday accused the federal and Borno state government of "treating
Amina like an item".
"She is a traumatised young woman who needs immediate care and not
any further media circus," he said in a statement.
Boko Haram kidnapped 276 girls from their school in the remote Borno
town of Chibok on April 14, 2014. Fifty-seven escaped in the hours that
followed but 219 remained in captivity until this week.
Thousands of women and young girls have been abducted since the
conflict began in 2009, Former hostages have said they were forced into
sex and menial work and even made to fight on the front line.
Buhari promised Amina "the best care the Nigerian government can
afford".
But Nigeria has been urged to do more to provide appropriate facilities
and services for all former hostages, particularly for victims of sexual
violence.
Rescued women and girls have faced stigma when they return to their
home communities as a result of their captivity.

VillageParrot:
Barring any last minute changes, Nigeria’s leading opposition party, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) is set to cancel its national convention scheduled to hold this weekend in Port-Harcourt, Rivers State and set up a Caretaker Committee to resolve grievances and unite the party, SIGNAL can report.

A top party official who spoke to SIGNAL from Port-Harcourt on Saturday disclosed the details.

According to the source who did not want to be named, “As I am speaking to you now, top level meetings are going on and top on the agenda of the meetings is the cancellation of the convention to pave way for a Caretaker Committee that will unite the party.”

The source said some party bigwigs were concerned about sacrificing the future of the party on the altar of the ambition of Ali-Modu Sheriff and his supporters.

better because I don't like SAS at all.

RockHard:
In as much as you have every right to decide what you choose to (and not to) accept, you still are not arguing based on fact. What was the last official population estimate of PH? If it was undercounted, why? By whom? What is the Rivers state govt's own alternative data? According to the latest data on the number of registered phone lines and internet connection ( https://www.nairaland.com/3114368/nigerian-states-number-registered-phone ), Oyo state as at today (if that data is anything to go by) has approximately 2-million more inhabitants than Rivers state. Show me some data to support your assertions, please. Not guess work.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Nigerian_cities_by_population

Some of u have not been to PH just typing nonsense pyrrhic population from your bed

Movic1:
Ẹ̀bá-Ọ̀dàn , meaning 'the city at the edge of the savannah' is the capital city of Oyo State and the third largest metropolitan area, by population, in Nigeria , after Lagos and Kano, with a population of over 3.5 Million, and the country's largest metropolis by
geographical area.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ibadan

written by people like u. Funny, is as good as saying Nigeria is d giant of Africa on paper but the living standard of the people can't be compare to small Gabon. We are talking about reality and not something written by some tribal fifth columnists like u.

MrAnalyst:
That Abuja stat is total hogwash. Even Ogbomosho...

God bless u.
Abuja total population from 2006 census is d smallest followed by Bayelsa state. Obio/Akpor alone is more than Bwari, Gwagwalada, Kuje and Garki

OBAFEMIawolowo:
and i ask myself again ooo, is it not that same okene along abuja road? Haba, people no dey fear God brother.

I wonder o, o ma se o. Tribalism has killed Nigeria

Movic1:
It is normal to hate. What's the total population of Oyo state and River state before we move further?

look at the whole population for the two states.
Oyo State . 5,591,589. Rivers State. 5,185,400
as at 2006.
Oyo population is relatively spread across Ibadan, Oyo, Ogbomosho and what have you.
On the other hand, Rivers state population is concentrated in PH. PH has over 70% of the population of the state. So answer me how Ibadan as a town is more populated than PH.

OBAFEMIawolowo:
if we can be truthful to ourselves, the most populous cities will be

Lagos
Kano
Ibadan
Abuja
PH
Aba
Benin
Onitsha
Kaduna
Jos
Enugu

pls correct yourself, Abuja can never be populated than PH. Only Obio/Akpor will be in a battle with Abuja metropolis let alone Rivers state. Abuja has the smallest population in Nigeria from the census. Rivers population is 70%concentrated in Port Harcourt.

OBAFEMIawolowo:
answer these questions

1. Have you been to okene?

2. Do you think okene is more populated than akure, owerri, calabar and warri?

3. Have you been to onitsha?

4. Do you believe ogbomoso is more populated than Jos, enugu and onitsha?

We need to be truthful to ourselves.

Ogbeni eseun o, live the man let him keep hallucinating. It is not just foolish to assert that Abuja is more populated than PH or Okene is in per with Warri. What is in that Okene self, what is the total population of Igbira generally that Okene will have 900, 000. Is it that some person can't think outside the box of tribalism and favouritism?
