Politics › 2015 ELECTIONS: Men Who’ll Decide The Fate Of Contestants In S/west by Firefire(op): 1:32am On Jan 02, 2015
THE December 24, 2014 nationwide redeployment of 37 Resident Electoral Commissioners, RECs, by the Independent National Electoral Commission ,INEC, popped up six men, whose professional wisdom is expected to guide the 2015 general elections in the South West geo-political zone.Notably, these RECs are distinguished from their peers across the country by a common identity, as they are Yoruba—the common race of the south-westerners.None could be described as a rookie in the business of election management, given that they had at various times overseen both controversial and non- disputable polls.This baggage of experience, is expected to be brought to bear in a region regarded as the hotbed of the opposition and the home of the progressively inclined politicians.In the course of their duties, jinx would be broken, records would be made, while history may be distorted. A letter dated December 24, 2014 by the Secretary of INEC, Augusta Ogakwu, stated that the RECs were directed to conclude all handing and taking over formalities yesterday.

OYO STATE:

Until his recent appointment, the 1973 University of California graduate of Political Science, was the REC in Osun State. Rufus Akeju obtained his Masters of Arts in International Affairs in June, 1974 at the Ohio University Athens, Ohio USA. He earned his Ph.D in Political Science with specialization in International Law/Relations, Public Administration and Policy Analysis, Comparative Politics and Development.The former Ambassador to Cuba was made a REC on July 22, 2010. Akeju, who was born in Lagos May 25 , 1947, hails from Lagos State.

His tenure in Osun was not short of controversies, as he was accused of partisanship by the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP. At various times, there were demands for his removal following allegations that he is a card-carrying member of the All Progressives Congress APC. He was eventually removed from the state one month before the last governorship elections. Mr. Kayode Idowu, the Chief Press Secretary to INEC Chairman, Attahiru Jega, in statement, said Akeju was requested by the Commission to step aside against the backdrop of intense partisan acrimony over his person.“He acceded to the request, knowing the effort being invested by INEC to make the Osun governorship election free, fair and credible. He has not been indicted for any offence, and the appeal by INEC for a stay of execution of the interlocutory order restraining the Commission from recognising him as Osun REC still subsist,”Idowu state.

Akeju, who once served in the administration of Bola Tinubu in Lagos State, is believed to be a strong ally of the APC leader.

I like Jimmy agbaje but he can't win with [s]Mr. Tewonde and Ogunlewe as his godfathers[/s]. Remind me the percentage Agbaje got last time. He is getting less than 8% this year.
We do not align our faith with any godfather. We promise our allegiance to the people of the state and to her development, from Ikeja to Mushin, from Amuwo Odofin to Badagry, From Ketu to Ikorodu, from Surulere to Ijora Badia, from Ajegunle to every streets in Lagos.


Jimi Agbaje will never be a cosmetics governor but a performer.

Vote Change, Vote Jimi Agbaje for a NEW Lagos.

Face of New Lagos is HERE!

www.factchecki.ng

Presidential candidate of the All Progressive Congress (APC) Muhammadu Buhari on Thursday launched a fact-checking website to counter all attacks on his personality by the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).

A statement by his media aide said the site is dedicated to sharing “facts and disapproving many lies being told by the Goodluck Jonathan campaign against Muhammadu Buhari.”

“This is announcing FactChecki.ng, a fact-checking site dedicated to sharing the facts and the figures, and disproving many lies being told by the Goodluck Jonathan campaign against Muhammadu Buhari, presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress,” the statement said.

“Happy New Year! 2015 is the year we reset Nigeria’s clock by electing competence,” 'Gbenga Sesan, a social entrepreneur team and a member working on the site, said.

“Let’s kill lies against #GMB16 via factchecki.ng,” he said.

“Our volunteer effort seeks to kill lies that are introduced to discourage you from supporting the candidacy of Muhammadu Buhari/Yemi Osinbajo. Please share the facts from the FactCheki.ng website with everyone – via SMS, through your favourite radio/TV shows, on social media and much more,” Sesan said.

He urged Nigerians to cross check any statement by the PDP by mailing it to the site.

“If you come across any lies about Buhari or any claims which accuracy you are not sure of, please send such to lies@factchecki.ng,” the statement said.

Daily Trust reporter visited the site around 2:44pm on Thursday; some of the controversial claims against Buhari being addressed include questions such as “Did Muhammadu Buhari call for post-election violence or ask his supporters to kill? Did Buhari say Muslims should only vote for Muslim leaders? Did Buhari promise to make Nigeria ungovernable?”

The site handlers provided detailed answers to these controversial issues by providing video clips, online links to newspapers stories, among others to convince their audience.

Shame on you. Unfortunately the man you are bringing is not the change Nigeria needs.
If a young man, well schooled like Osinbajo, Fashola, El-Rufai, Shema, etc irrespective of their religious inclination, I can support that change you are talking about..... But Buhari, No No No...! He's definitely not the change Nigeria needs now, not for ever. I am a Northerner, Never will I vote for GMB. Let good luck continue instead. I also desire change, but definitely not GMB.
Unfortunately again, The constitution of did not give any significant power to the VP. so I cannot because of Osinbajo VP position cast my precious vote to GMB, NEVER.
Wisdom!

i now believe that these APC guys are paid to keep vigil here on nairaland.
their mode of operation is to always be the first ten guys to comment on any thread that springs up to dictate the pace and tone of the ensuing discourse.
it is just pathetic.
like their pay is hinged on how many likes they can garner.
