awodman: The candidate of the Labour Party (LP), Chief Ifeanyi Ubah has set up a committee charged with the task of recovering all the campaign vehicles and monies he gave out to his directors, coordinators and agents in the state’s 21 local government areas, wards and the three senatorial zones during the campaigns for the election.[/
b]

THISDAY checks revealed that Ubah who came fourth with 37,565 votes in the already announced results of the
election was taken aback and felt aggrieved that majority
of his campaign workers betrayed him and worked for rival candidates in the election.

[b]Thus, the setting up of the committee, THISDAY learnt had caused many of these campaigns workers to go
underground around the state.

For instance, a source said some of his agents went as far
as negotiating with coordinators of his rivals to trade off
their support for him on the election day and looked the
other way while the election was allegedly being rigged to the detriment of their principal’s interest.

“Ubah was particularly peeved that these directors,
coordinators and agents betrayed the trust and confidence he reposed in them,” the source said, adding that retrieving his vehicles was like a way of getting back at them.

A member of LP who craved anonymity told THISDAY in
Nnewi yesterday that they have heard about the formation of the committee but felt it was a way of losing badly and a sign of political immaturity.

“It depends on what he is talking about anyway. Did his
campaign workers ask him to give them bribe or vehicles
to work? He voluntarily gave out vehicles and no one
forced him. If he is recovering vehicles, it smacks of
ingratitude because those people rendered services to him during the campaigns.

“Can he quantify their services in monetary terms except
unless there was a written contract he had with those
people before the election,” he said.

But the Media Director of Ifeanyi Ubah campaign
organisation, Mr. Afam llouno, said what his principal did
was not setting up a debt recovery committee but a
general stock taking after the election, adding that “he
wanted to know what happened, the area he did well and
where he didn’t,”

The committee he said was in line with his principal’s
avowed practice of accountability which he had been doing even before his foray into politics.

“Even when he was running his campaign organisation, he was very prudent and if you are given a task, you report back and render account of your stewardship. After the election, he called his coordinators in the wards, local
governments, state and the senatorial zones to try to
establish and know how things went down the line but
people started blackmailing him. It is not a new thing to
people that work with him except those who want to be
funny,” he said.

some username: Nobody here understands it either.
From the first look it seems like tensions between national republics started to rise and Gorbachev decided to reform USSR into another union, less solid and with bigger responsibilities of national governments. But after USSR was disbanded and CIS was created Yeltsin suddenly usurped power in Russia, overthrew communists and banned communist party. Similar things happened in other republics except for Belarus and Belarus is the only country who is in CIS now except for Russia of course.

But if you dig deeper it seems like either Gorbachev himself or Yeltsin or both of them were either controlled by USA or were just outright CIA agents because what they did was pure traitory - they made it possible for our resources and scientific developments to be bought cheaply by Europe and US. The economy lay in ruins, people fled the country, starved, took drugs, forced each other into prostitution or mafia rings. As one of the ministers from that time said "We had no time to care about anything - we only had to destroy industry so that communists would never rise again".
People were overwhelmingly against USSR dissolution,yet Gorbachev allowed it to happen. Some strange snipers without uniforms were shooting and killing both supporters of Yeltsin, supporters of Parliament and even neutral military forces who tried to make opposing forces to negotiate. Thanks god it didn't slide into full-scale civil war.

Putin seems even a bigger mystery to everyone. He was appointed by Yeltsin and yet he basically saved Russia during the Chechen wars. He works perfectly in foreign politics but cannot make those corrupt asses to work good domestically. He is friends with some corrupt oligarchs and opposes other corrupt oligarchs. Nobody of common people knows what's going on there on top but at least Russia still exists and seems to be doing pretty well compared to 90s.

paulmarkino: I was a wedding in Onitsha when the MC told the newly wedded man to check his woman under to see if everything is in-tact. I only see this as stupidity but to my dismay the MC became more serious and the man went ahead in front of all the well wishers and perform what you see in this picture. I didn't like it but all the way, it's just funny LOVE making. Ladies, will you allow this to happen to you? And men, will you do this if asked to ?

oluwashaddow: like he truly feels their pain

jamace: Ha ha ha So, Ngige invested over N2b to win election, eh? God has saved Anambra people o. He would have recouped his investment 100 times over, thereby emptying the state treasury without carrying out any meaningful development.

Now tell me, how is APC better than PDP?

God save Nigeria from money politics!

ckc: Do u know that Igbo language is one of the officially recognized ethnic languages in Equatorial Guinea? Thank me for updating u incase u dont already know!

patrikobi: The Federal Government today flagged off the reconstruction of PortHarcourt Enugu Express Road (Abia State Section) for the sum of 50 Billion Naira. The contract for the reconstruction of this strategic highway is awarded to the Arab Contractors. We thank Mr. President for extending his transformation agenda to Abia State. Just like Oliver Twist, Governor T.A. Orji requested that the Minister should direct the contractors handling the Arochukwu Ohafia Express Road back to site now that the raining season is over.

Omexonomy: Ameachi is a big author of confusion which is typical APC.

stevnwigw1: Today at some major news papers I saw the likes of Gen. Buhari, Tinubu, El Rufai, and many more coming out physically to protest the Anambra election, then I ask my self, if these men have had good motive for Nigeria and Nigerians, not their individual pockets then, this place is soon going to be a better place.

Alikaxon: Its so rediculous of the governor, for finding time to address inconsequential things rather than more pressing things that needed his attention. He is very silly. He should come and arrest me too, If he so wishes. People have been insulting GEJ on facebook, but he had always ignored them. Now, I wonder if this governor is in Gej's shoes....

crackhaus: Some romance section topics though

glory on: Hey house,want to keep this short as possible. I once had a girl whom we dated for a considerable period of time. It happened that we broke up and we both went our seperate ways. We got in touch not too long ago and now comes this issue. I WANT her back but unfortunately she now dates a guy which she wants to get married to. Though I went ahead to express my feelings about wanting her back but she said NO. BUT she sleeps with me anytime I call her and we see,the next thing is to have sex. She wasn't like this when we were dating. She is insisiting that we can't date any longer but I wonder why she sleeps with me when she knows that she is getting married soon. N.B she is innocent when we were dating infact she is a pastor's daughter.

Elueme: Mr Rotimi can't deceive too many Riverines by this bull and roster story. Agreed, there was an oil well dispute which has been before amaechi or Gej' government but why preempt the court by using this as an excuse?
The real reason for this battle of wit is ambition. You (amaechi) had presented yourself as the defecto vice president before the realisation that the President might seek a re-election which automatically alters your equation hence the needless battle to frustrate the President whom you guys underestimated.
It will be foolhardy to think that Rivers people will yield to this appeal to emotions intended to deceive them into supporting this unholy battle for political survival.
