Salary increament will take effect soon and palliatives will follow. Work days would be reduced as well to three days. These are things being discussed now. If anyone told you he would have performed any miracle overnight, he's only lying and being deceitful

IconicR:
Please I need someone to clear me on what Obi would have done differently concerning the situation of the country within this short period. A country that has long sunked since the time of Jonathan's administration, the last good/fair government we had was Yaradua and Obasanjo's administration. Jonathan is the architect of the present country we have, Buhari couldn't do any better and Tinubu is just trying to pull us out by the drastic decisions he's taking which has it's negative impact which would only be for a very short time before we start seeing the positive effects of his decisions. Nigerians please be patient, times are really hard but we have to endure so we can achieve permanent and meaningful results. May God ease our affairs and bless each and every one of you.
Thank you all, iconicR cares.

Ijelenwanyioma:
I am legally married to this man and we have 3 sons together. Recently he purchased some land which he actually told me about but when I checked the documents of all the land I only saw Mr(his name in full) and not Mr & Mrs (his name and surname) or Mr (his name ) and Mrs (My name ). This really gave me great concern and when I asked him, he told me it doesn't really count because the properties also belong to my children. Later he started accusing me that I am nursing ulterior motive in my heart and maybe I want to take over the properties which is blantly lies. I just want to feel ownership of the land too

Please am I overreacting on this issue truly or my husband is planning something behind me ( maybe remarrying)

Human Right Activist, Silas Joseph Onu, Analysed The Petition Of APM Against APC, Tinubu, Shettima, and INEC.

IN SUMMARY..
If the APC agreed that Shettima was nominated on an earlier date,, (which was supposed to coincide with the last possible date for his nomination, without which Tinubu gets disqualified), then Shettima would go in for double nomination..
And then, if they agreed that Shettima was nominated on a later date, then, Tinubu must already had been disqualified,, being that his 14-days for replacing the resigned place-holder had already elapsed long time ago.

Apart from the sociological factors, the petition is defective at its root. The only problematic point or issue is the 25% in the FCT and the Court will devise a way to split the decision with the majority construing Section 134 to mean a state in line with prior precedents of the Supreme Court. The Supreme Court will also deliver a split decision to save Tinubu and Nigeria.

IGBOS DO NOT HAVE LEVERAGE IN NIGERIA AND THEY WILL LOSE BECAUSE OF THAT.

Philgafauto:
God will help everybody. I have some legal chops so when i saw the written address, i knew there was no way for Peter Obi. I am very cleared eyed about things due to my training.

There is no way the Court will rule for Obi. As for the issue of 25% in FCT, the Court will use good old common law constitutionalism to dispense with that problem.

In addition, the judges will choose to offend Obi & Igbos than Yorubas and the Southwest where Lagos is situated. If the Court rules against Tinubu, Lagos and Nigeria will boil and that is inimical to Nigeria's national economic interest. Obi does not even have IPOB or the Niger Delta boys in his corner. And for many Nigerians, they do jot care if igbos burn down their own region to the ground in anger. Igbo land is not important to Nigeria.

Also, wants to die for a stingy and effeminate Obi? But plenty area boys will die for Tinubu. These are some of the sociological factors the Court will consider in reaching their decision. Judges are human beings just like ordinary Nigerians. Just that they have a legal training and have been elevated to the bench.

With regards to this petition, i am confident that the Court will dismiss it with costs.

Philgafauto:
First of all, i will start by saying Non-Igbo supporters of Peter Obi really tried for him during the election period. For example, I as a yoruba man made many enemies because I supported Peter Obi. But that is in the past now.

The crux of this write up is that Peter Obi wasted a rare opportunity of utilizing the unity of Nigerians caused by Buhari's misrule to galvanize real change. Since he knew he will be cheated, why did Peter Obi not mend fences with the Igbo elites and perhaps his IPOB brothers to instigate some sort of uprising after should he be cheated? I attribute that to the disorganization and powerless position igbos have found themselves in Nigeria. Igbos are confused, disorganized, defeated and disoriented in handling their regional and collective affairs in Nigeria. Most Igbos are now refugees in other regions having fled their own region due to conflict. Their wahala is a self-inflicted one because they are a very arrogant and disunited people. I know Peter Obi won that election but he is a small boy to Tinubu and he cannot fight him in any way, shape or form. It is a sad reality we all have to deal with. State capture is real.

As for the case in Court, having read the final written address by Chief Wole Olanipekun (SAN) i can categorically state that the petition will be dismissed because there is no way that any Court of law will rule in favor of Peter Obi given the plethora of legal and evidentiary issues plaguing Peter Obi's petition as dissected in that final written address (I urge every interested person to read and digest that Final Written Address). The doctrine of covering the field was used to block all legal loopholes in Tinubu's case and he is well guarded. I cannot wait for the response from Obi's legal team and i can confidently preempt their written address by stating that they wont have any cogent points but to try and distinguish the legal authorities cited by Olanipekun & APC's legal team. Tinubu has Peter Obi cornered already and there is no escape for Obi.

Even if there were no legal issues bedeviling the Peter Obi's petition, the Courts will still rule against Peter Obi and nothing will happen. Peter Obi does not have any extensive network, neither does he come from a strong region which can trouble Nigeria. Heck, even Igbo elites are not on his side because as a people, Igbos dont just have any leverage in Nigeria. They cannot shake things up.

I know Igbos and Obidients (mainly made up of IPOB remnants now since other non-igbos have left the movement) will insult me for saying the truth but the truth must still be said.

My advice is for everybody to move on and not hope for any favorable judgment from the Court. The petition will be dismissed with punitive costs for being frivolous, speculative and time wasting.

Wishing everyone a nice week ahead.

Reading through the written address of Tinubu and Shettima lawyers at the ongoing election petition tribunal led by supposed respected senior lawyer Wole Olanipekun, one can’t help but giggle at the hollowness and shallowness of their defense.

In the address, Mr Olanipekun was busy citing the case of Shagari vs Awolowo that happened as far back as 1979 under the 1979 Constitution and in election conducted by FEDECO, as our electoral commission was called then.

Since 1979, we’ve have had many reformations to our electoral laws and have even changed our constitution.

If anything, the most relevant case as far as election cases are concerned in Nigeria today, is the Supreme Court ruling in Osun in case of Oyetola vs Adeleke. This case is the most relevant because it is the only Supreme Court decision since the Electoral Act 2022 came into force.

Ironically, Mr Olanipekun surreptitiously ignored the Osun case which has a lot of similarities with the case at PEPT as they both bother on the place of technology in our election and to what degree INEC can choose to apply or ignore technology in our elections.

It is pertinent to state these things for the world to hear, read and see, so that we all keep an eye on the judiciary and see what comes out it.

Remember that it is not enough to do justice, justice must also be seen to have been done.

Got a chipped tooth about ten years ago, and those brown stain have cover the chipped parts ever since.

They don't bother me in any other way, except that I love grooming myself and those stains irritates me.

Is it possible to be removed? Or, can a dentist file that part off and make it more even without the stain?

Note that I brush my teeth 2 to three times daily cause I hate it when plaques started building up after eating. But those stains have remained.

And I be fine boy fa. I no want make that stain dey there.

So a friend of mine is in his finals and said he won't go for NYSC.

While discussing with a group of pals, one adviced him to go for NYSC because they'll request for the certificate when you apply for a job.

He told him about a course mate during his time who was turned down for a private job just because he didn't go for NYSC.

I use to think that only government Jobs require NYSC as a criteria for getting hired.

What's your experience, have you ever been turned down for a job because you didn't have NYSC certificate?

The National Chairman of the Labour Party, Barrister Julius Abure, said that he has been informed of the plans by the All Progressives Congress (APC)-led government to work ahead of a possible rerun, knowing that the tide of the wind is heavily tilted against it.

The National Chairman also called on the over 10 million members of the party to be on the alert and get ready to further humiliate APC and its government in the polls if their sinister plot materializes.

Barrister Abure stated this on Monday, 10th of July, during an online meeting held with Nigerian-American Coalition for Justice and Democracy led by Professor Eddie Oparaoji, who is the Labour Party Diaspora Chairman in the United States.


Abure said: “Rumours have it that those in government are already planning for rerun and this is one of the support we will be canvasing from you. We should also be getting prepared because since all those in government are already preparing for rerun we too should not be taken unawares.

“So we will be needing your engagement and support on this aspect if par adventure it happens today, that the election is nullified which is not what we are asking for, because we are asking for outright declaration of Peter Obi as the President of Nigeria.

“We believe strongly that we won that election given the statistics we have, given the result we have, we are not expecting anything less than the declaration of Peter Obi as the president of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

“But supposing that didn’t happened as the government is believed to be planning for a rerun it will not also be out of place for we to be preparing for a rerun election.

“Having said this by the side, I must say clearly that we have put all our evidences before the court we are very hopeful that the tribunal will act on our favour.

“And we are very hopeful that supposing the matter gets to the higher court, the Supreme Court, in this case, it will also act in our favour.

“We are keeping our hope and confidence alive.

“In 9 months we are able to change the political narratives of this country and we must build on that successes and so that we can have a more formidable party that we can strategically positioned fro the down trodden people of Nigeria.”


In his contribution, the Director of ObiDatti Presidential Campaign, Ambassador Oseloka Obaze called on ObiDatti members in diaspora to see the struggle for recovering of our mandate as a collective responsibility and one that no one can actually abandoned for any other reason.


He said: “Great countries of the world are built by the citizens of the country and I think we have in the diaspora enormous human capital.

“What we need to do is to be able to harvest them bring them home and make Nigeria to be a great place.

“The process is ongoing, the campaign to change this nation is not just an event, it is a process, a long drawn process.

“How long it is going to last, we don’t know, but I think what we serve as the most and best is to remain focused on our various sectors; you that are in diaspora do what you can do to support us, we that are in the trenches, we will continue to keep the ground.”

The chairman of the Nigerian-American Coalition for Justice and Democracy, Professor Oparaoji in his speech titled ‘Fostering a purposeful diaspora partnership for a new Nigeria’ said that the group in partnership with all Obidients in diaspora has the potential to contribute significantly to Nigerian’s development.

Professor Oparaoji said: “Through advocacy, human rights promotion, capacity building, investment, education and healthcare support, diaspora engagement, and policy advocacy, we can play a crucial role in fostering Democratic governance, justice, and socio-economic progress in Nigeria.

“With our diverse network and resources, our diaspora community can be a catalyst for positive change and contribute to Nigeria’s long term development goal of powering up that new Nigeria of our dream.”

At the resumed hearing of the Petition of the Labour Party and Peter Obi against INEC, Tinubu, Shettima and APC, INEC was finally able to open their defence as their witness did not have “domestic issues” today.

INEC witness today was the same Deputy Director of ICT at INEC, Lawrence Bayode, who testified for INEC in PDP’s case.

After adopting his witness statement, it was time for cross examinations by parties.

When it the turn of the Labour Party, cross examination was handled by PIN Ikwueto SAN.

First, under cross examination, PIN Ikwueto asked the witness why INEC went ahead to deploy the IREV for the elections if it had “vulnerabilities” (recall the many claims of threats of hackers and all by INEC and government agencies).

To this the witness replied that the IREV “had no vulnerability.”

Furthermore into the cross examination, Mr Ikwueto handed an INEC certified IREV result sheet and asked, “what is the score of APC in this result sheet?”

INEC Witness: ”I don’t know, the results are blurry.”

And that was how INEC admitted in court that its document is blurry.

Now, the question is where did it get the numbers to announce the winner it announced?

Remember: ”The aim is not to trust the judiciary, the aim is to overwhelm them with evidence”.
