Group Says no to monetary inducement of delegates, endorses osinbajo as consensus candidate

Legacy Transformation Initiative, a policy formulation and analysis hub has lamented inducement of delegates by Nigerian politicians as seen in the just concluded primary election held by the opposition Peoples Democratic Party.

The non-partisan group which made this known in a statement signed by Ibe Aniemeke Lawson, its national coordinator was appreciative of Nigerian youths for the non-violent atmosphere during the primary elections processes.

It is also called on the ruling the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) not to toe the path of the PDP. It said it will be a stain on the reputation of the party of its delegates are induced monetarily as it was in the case of the opposition party.

Going further, the group admonished Nigerian leaders over the non inclusion of the youths in the electoral process despite the enacted law backing it.

The group urged politicians to adopt and initiate pragmatic frameworks and activities that will encourage and incentivize the youths to politics.

Part of the statement read: "One of such ways is to deliberately as a matter of necessity re-engineer our leadership recruitment process. Of immediate attention is the need to demonetise the methods for delegate selection or nomination through the adoption of stringent guidelines that emphasize on the strength of character, experience and leadership qualities of candidates to inform the choice of delegate in choosing party’s flag bearers.

Only when this is entrenched as a party culture can the youths and credible people aspire and eventually emerge to represent the mass of us.

This is particularly worrisome, with several reports that made the rounds of the charade and open market bidding processes that allegedly characterized the opposition PDP Presidential Congress. This was reinforced as expressed and captured by one of the PDP Presidential aspirants, Dr Hayatu deen (a seasoned banker)- who had to step down on account of the over monetization of the process.

"Thirdly, accordingly, we prescribed that the “it is time” the ruling party (APC) is offered a golden opportunity come 6th -7th June 2022 to assuage the traumatized Nigerians- especially our teeming youths who saw that infamy perpetrated by the PDP by correcting the wrongs. The APC can engender itself among Nigerians through this narrow window their Presidential Congress affords by conducting the primary congress devoid of monetary inducements and the characterising of an eventual winner as the highest bidder in the process.

Thus, we appeal on behalf other numerous patriots that by adopting or voting Prof Yemi Osinbajo (GCON)- whom we have by our earlier press statement characterised from our studies as the most suitable and capable of the rest of the qualified aspirants on the APC primary election ballot. A man who is evidently and manifestly is NOT a money bag, a pious and prudent character that his profile set him apart from other contenders and whose aspirations resonates with the youths and mass of Nigerians; as well as the international community. We must emphasize with all sense of conviction that the APC will endear itself to Nigerians, heartily and boldly adjudge itself as truly "progressive" as the appellation which it claims if they elect to do this.

Equally, by seizing the onerous opportunity of adopting or overwhelmingly/unanimously electing Prof. Yemi Osinbajo (GCON) the APC delegates/leadership would deliberately with all sense of patriotism avert the strain on the Naira and the correlating inflationary impact on the Nigeria economy a second tortious pull of the strong dollar against a weak naira at this time. We are afraid to note and conclude that if the APC fails to seize this moment nor neglects to react to the PDP's primary election debacle and the reputation it has infamously earned by doing something different, Nigerians may continue in the erroneous classification that all the parties are only different between six and half a dozen.

Lastly, dear patriotic APC delegates and party chieftain, It Is Time as history beckons as you all stand to be counted. All Nigerians present and future hopes lies in your hands to choose PYO for a greater and prosperous Nigeria for all of us.

Makes no difference

DamnnNiggarr:
My entire family which includes my brothers' wives and their kids and my sisters' families was once a peaceful and an enviable large family but right now, the devil wants to destroy the family through our wives.

My wife and my younger brother's wife who were once greatest friends are now mortal enemies, they don't talk nor regard themselves as humans, this enmity has lingered for long despite me and my brother's efforts and that of my entire family, both extended, to resolve the issues between them, over the years but all to no avail.

It becomes worse by the day as we have tried everything humanly possible that is within our reach to quell the situation, but no success.
It is that bad that as I'm typing this, their enmity is starting to effect me and my brother's relationship, as my younger brother no longer calls nor chats me as he normally does. Even if I called nor chatted him, he won't pick up and neither the missed calls nor the chats would be returned.

I want to try something different, a totally different approach in tackling the situation, that's why I brought it here. I don't want anything to come in between me and my brother nor my family. I don't want anything to happen to neither my brother's wife nor my wife because the heart of man is evil, that's why I'm seeking for a resolution to the ugly situation.

please all your opinions will help a great deal in approaching it from a different perspective.
please save my family.

Obim, My wife is actually the cause of the whole drama,
She accused my brother's wife of having extramarital affair with me due to how close I was with her as a result of the love they(my wife and her) had for each other. It lead to a very heated quarrelling and the lady vowed never to forgive my wife in her life time and my wife whole heartedly accepted the conquest. Obim said if that will keep her away from me that it's a welcome development.

Now, how it's affecting my family is that my kids no longer go on vacation to their place likewise their kids no longer come over to my house during vacation and many more troubles it has caused my entire family.
Initially, My brother understood that it was one of the wahalas associated with women but I'm surprised and confused about his recent change in attitude.

I have never been able to understand how full grown men can allow their wives from different backgrounds as their men come into the family and bring in enmity.
One can say those men are weak, but I doubt that is the case. I think the issue is more like giving women too much room to cause mischief.

A cousin of mine is of the opinion that women are born to cause mischief. One would understand why he thinks so cause his wife is a piece of work in that regard. Highly opinionated, troublesome, always bustling for a fight and quick to temper. I had to teach her a hard lesson in the past so she stays out of my way but one does not need to use hard measures to pass such a message.

Then again if a woman refuses to listen then more radical approaches should be used to call her to order.
I suggest you brother and you call both your wives to order. Get them both in the same room and trash the issue once and for all. That's the only way out. Ofcos your brother must also play a part else it won't work. U don't need to be calling him.
Go to his house and call him out.
Left for women, they will cause so much trouble that the brothers will be a loggerhead so they have the man only to themselves

Kaduna PDP Primaries: Over 300 people claiming they voted for me after I got 2 votes ― Shehu Sani

The thing about Nigerians is that they enjoy rewarding evil and love crying wolf about it.
See how they ousted GEJ for Bubu and at the end crying crocodile tears.
Now they intend to make the same mistake with Tinubu.

Candidlady:



When ladies start to behave like men then something is really wrong this world

Only men act/behave this way

allah ya kiyaye

Nothing like that. Ladies as well as men are born wicked. Nothing differentiates them from the in action alone

Favfables1:
How can you adopt a child without the knowledge and consent of his father? ....

And for her to suggest this speaks volumes of her personality ....

I will never marry a single mother, and I wouldn't advice you to either, but since your mind is already made up, I would advise that you have a talk with the biological father of the child, gain more info as to why they separated ....

Her own narrative will most likely be a biased one, seeing that she has more to gain ...

Know what you're getting yourself into OP...
I wish you good luck chief...

He doesn't need the father's consent. Some Nigerian men are just plainly irresponsible

lawrenzooo:
Believe me no Judge would issue you an adoption order without the consent of the father knowing fully well that the father of the child is alive.

I don't know adoption proceedings but I know people that adopted children and the child's father is still alive. I believe you just have to prove that the father has been away since birth and wants no contact with the child

lawrenzooo:
Its heart warming to see a young man in love with a single mother. Some of this ladies are just victims of circumstance and shouldnt be treated as a pariah for making mistakes. We all make mistakes after all.
Having said that, truth is women are emotional and have the tendency to be bais when telling a story. I doubt if you can legally adopt the child without the fathers consent.

You love the lady marry her if you want to, leave the girl to continue with her current name. Being a father is not just about the name am sure if she gets fatherly love from you she would accord you the respect of a father even in the years after.
Wish you luck.

It makes sense for him to adopt the child. Life is to short so why wait.

Maverick777:
trust me I'm extremely meticulous, I've done all that, the girl's mother is 100% comfortable with anything I want.
now what I need is experience, that's why I brought this here..

You won't be marrying the mother but the girl. The person you have horses to burn is with her,..the girl. She is the one you talk to.
If you say you have done all the suggested then you are good to go. Means you should be able to tell when she is being honest with you or not. Give it time, nothing is hidden under the sun.
The story always come out at the end.
Cheers!

Hashabiah:
My brother, just take the chance and talk this over with the girls mother and if possible, tell her to be honest with you on this whole issues . Because and the end of the day, the girl's mother still has the final say .

Best answer here above

I mean what is the reason to beat yourself when U can sit down with her and talk things thru. Yes, women have a tendency to alter narrative to suit themselves but once you start hearing the truth from your woman, you would know.
Table the issue, talk it thru and thru till your mind is settled on the issue. Don't stop asking her questions about it till it's settled in your mind.

With all the info you've given, then it's best you remain in Nigeria, because it'd take a number of years to get that big boy lifestyle you're enjoying in Nigeria abroad. If you're going with 4kids, the cost of child care is going to be significantly higher that whatever it is you're paying in Nigeria at present.
Yes, though the student route is easiest, not all translate to permanent residency after school, so that level of uncertainty is there. You must open your mind to the possibility of packing sh*t, mopping floors, and doing other manual labour, you wouldn't have a choice anyways, esp with 4kids, moreso, with your limited number of work hours as a student, things will be initially rough, and madam will need to hustle too to balance the equation.
If you're ready to bend and endure the temporary pains though, there may be light at the end of the tunnel.
PS: Before they deceive you that they're earning 2Million in a month, ask them what their tax, rent and insurance etc is first.

Student route never translate to permanent residence automatically. Person has to work and pay tax for few years before residency status changes.
Plus those screaming 2 M should convert it with current exchange rate (I mean black market) and you will see it's almost nothing. Ofcos the question would be is it 2M before or after tax.

MrBrownJay1:
whatever you do, if you go, dont put your family through unnecessary stress... so make sure you have a valid plan in place. it would be unwise for most to leave a ₦600K paying job to go hustle abroad, but then again, we aint in your shoes.

Best answer but only if he will listen

When U report news, you should be an unbiased participant, not make judgements.

NOETHNICITY:
The problem is your ignorant obstinacy. Holding on to ur ignorant opinion without proof that turkey alone cannot be the reason why the ascension of finland and sweden into NATO will be put on hold. Even though effort was made to correct you after Erdogan made public statements in that regard. You insinuated to know better than the turkish president. That was when I knew something is seriously wrong with you

I see the person with the problem being you.

I made no insinuations, just a plain statement. Right or wrong, it remains a statement. It's left for you to make your own statement and move on with proof and then leave the issue.

That you are still harping on this, shows you have a very big problem and it may bother on delusion of grandeur. Which, if I may say is a psychiatric problem. Go and have yourself checked.

I have no problem accepting were am wrong but not at the gratification of your delusion.

Cheers

This is a strong show of togetherness and solidarity.

They said they would apply together and they have.

The message is loud and clear. We have each other's backs and our countries are United on this resolve!

Oya Putin they have thrown the gauntlet...go and attack them if you can

That's what I was telling people who are into right wing shit. They said Putin will attack, I told them that will be the end of Russia as we know it.
If Putin attacks and the west don't retaliate, then Europe as we know it will be dead. They know all this.

I'll soon stop commenting on NL. Too many uneducated people saturate forum. They come with ignorant bigotry. The try to ram down ones throat their most ignorant opinion. Simple research on google they are unable to do. Instead they continue to assert themselves. It's so suffocating.
You want to be spoon fed Mr.
Article 10 of NATO treaty compulsorily requires consensus and unanimity among members states before admitting a new member

NATO’s “open door policy” is based on Article 10 of its founding treaty. Any decision to invite a country to join the Alliance is taken by the North Atlantic Council on the basis of consensus among all Allies. No third country has a say in such deliberations.

https://www.nato.int/cps/en/natolive/topics_49212.htm

What you should say is that, Turkey simply wants finland and sweden to outlaw the pkk group that have been terrorizing turkey for years. Turkey will achieve their aim when Finland and sweden shift ground, and they will eventually be admitted into NATO

You have written your own and have given proof to defend your writings. So where is the problem?
Don't be a blatant fool like many on NL. I don't suffer them gladly.

The second most stupid comment

[quote author=WriterNig post=112837268][/quote]Turkey is just 1 vote and can't stop it. They can share their discomfort or abstain from voting, nothing more. Besides their own human rights violation are legendary so who is pointing finger

There death warrant will be signed by Putin very soon!

Very stupid comment

God1000:
All the threats from Vladimir Putin has failed to deter Finland and Sweden.


This Putin is still living in the past, this is 21st century, you don't just bully countries anyhow and expect them to embrace you.

The same reason Taiwan is seeking stronger ties with US instead of its neighbour China

You should know there was no way russian threats would have stopped those two countries. They fought Russia to stand still during the 2nd world war, though there were finally overtaken due to Russia's massive manpower but they didn't stop fighting even after that. They know the Russia ideology. They won't be threatened

HonNL:
Sweden has decided to follow neighboring Finland and apply for NATO membership, ending more than 200 years of military nonalignment because of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, officials said Monday.

If you can't beat them, join them. The remaining thing is for Russia to join NATO

MangekyoAlt:
I've left foreign affairs to pay attention to the wild animals wrecking havoc at home. instead of NATO to expand their alliance to the middle east, and deal with the untamed wild animals there, they prefer provoking another Christian country. Meanwhile, the sooner we realize that Abokîs need to be dealt with fire for fire, the better for us.
Funny thing is, I even thought the jews were going too hard on their illeterate skulls, not knowing that it is the only language they hear.
If not for Jesus christ that came and showed to us that peace and love is the way, we would've still been practicing the old testament meaning all these Abokîs for they collect well well......... But...... Them go still collect. Make them no maintain themselves. By the time we start sending some of the monkeys to SAW, na then their eye go open. Or perhaps they go even happy since their dozens of fresh kpekus prepared by SAW awaits them.

Sorry but U are not making sense. Though NATO has no foundation with religion but it's a worse case scenario if anyone considers their expanding to the middle East. Their actual line of action is the best. They have to expand to Russia. Putin can't do shit about it. He can only shout abs scream but can't do nada
