 Politics › 2023: Sanwo-olu Doesn’t Need Your Worthless Gov Ticket, APC Slams PDP by Ebubu8(op): 2:26pm On Feb 04, 2022 |
Published 4 February 2022 A former PDP spokesperson, Ganiu Taofik, had told The PUNCH that the party is ready to receive Sanwo-Olu ahead of the 2023 governorship election in the state. But APC in a statement by its spokesperson, Seye Oladejo, described the PDP’s offer to Sanwo-Olu as a “Greek gift”. ”While the thought of desperately offering its worthless electoral tickets to every passerby is laughable, the extent of the level of degradation, degeneration and comatose state of Lagos state PDP should not be lost on all and sundry. ”The platform that initially elected Governor Babajide Olusola Sanwoolu, having acknowledged his glowing performance across various sectors in his first term, is certainly still available to recontest for another term. ”His deft handling of the Covid-19 pandemic and the successful execution of the all encompassing THEMES agenda has endeared him to Lagosians as a compassionate , committed and the right leader for a time like this. ”He has, without doubt, redirected our state to the path of progress and restored our pride of place as the leading light in the federation.“ As the ruling party, we want to admonish the state governor to remain focused and undistracted from the onerous task of finishing strongly and fulfilling his part of the social contract with the good people of Lagos State. ”We wish to warn the opposition PDP to desist from its age-long tactics of perennial attempts to destabilize the ruling party by the deliberate promotion of falsehood, blackmail and arms – twisting strategies for political advantage. ”While we sympathise with Lagos State PDP over its several years of political misfortunes and misadventures, good wisdom dictates that it put its house in order to have a semblance of relevance. ”It’s pitiable that PDP could only think of fishing in the pool of capable talents in the APC while looking for people to offer it’s worthless Electoral tickets. ”Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu hereby unequivocally rejects this Greek gift and hereby states that APC remains his party of choice in making his next political move, which will be made known in due course to all Lagosians.”Source: https://semmatloaded.com/2022/02/2023-sanwo-olu-doesnt-need-your-worthless-gov-ticket-apc-slams-pdp/amp/

| Politics › Nnamdi Kanu: We’re Open To Peaceful Engagements If Fg’s Ready by Ebubu8(op): 7:43pm On Feb 03, 2022 |
Published 3 February 2022 The Indigenous People of Biafra has said that its doors are opened for “meaningful” and “sincere” peaceful engagement with other nationalities and the Federal Government if, indeed, Nigeria is ready for such. In a statement on Thursday, the group’s Media and Publicity Secretary, Emma Powerful, said its leader, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, never asked anybody to relax the freedom fight, but only advised Biafrans worldwide to embrace peace within the family. The group also said, “Before we enter into any peaceful engagement with Nigeria, Nigeria must show us that it is favourably disposed towards peace.” Powerful explained that Kanu only urged those who were trying to get distracted within the family to embrace peace and ensure the group is intact as a family. He added that enemies of the freedom fight were only bent on “reporting the messenger out of context” and possibly cause disaffection in the IPOB family, but that antics could no longer work. He stressed that its leader only reiterated the need for IPOB members to co-exist peacefully among themselves, warning traitors who are trying to create confusion in the family to be careful. The statement reads in part, “We are ready for peace if they need our peace. Because IPOB is a peaceful non-violent movement, our doors are open for meaningful and sincere peaceful engagement with other nationalities in Nigeria and even with the Federal Government if they are ready for such peaceful engagement. “We are human beings and cannot jeopardise our honour and respect before the international community. But before we enter into any peaceful engagement with Nigeria, Nigeria must show us that it is favourably disposed towards peace. “IPOB is ready for peace if Nigeria is out for peace, but so far, Nigeria has only proved it is out for violence. But no matter how much they persecute us, the Nigeria security agents cannot break our resolve to get Biafra people liberated. “Let us put the records straight as regards the laughable deliberate attempt to misrepresent the message of our leader to the IPOB family members. The fallacious reports in some national dailies that our great leader Mazi Nnamdi Kanu has asked IPOB members to embrace peace with Nigeria is another attempt by our enemies to sow seed of disunity in our midst. “They think they can report the messenger out of context and possibly cause disaffection in the IPOB family but that antics can no longer work. “We are surprised at the mischievous twisting of a clear message from our leader by the enemies of the struggle. Their aim is to create confusion and cause disaffection in the IPOB family but they came too late. “We therefore, want to put the record straight: What our leader said was that IPOB members should ensure continued peace in the movement. “Nnamdi Kanu never called for anybody to relax but advised family members worldwide to embrace peace within the family. We are ready for peace if they need our peace. Those traitors trying to create confusion in the family should be careful.” It also stated that in the face of persecution by security agents, the freedom fight would continue so that the Biafra people would be liberated.
