There is a difference, Wike is using money to keep them.
But here's the twist, with the recent court cases, he does not have the structure of both parties, he only have people that wants his money.

The people of Rivers state are not with him and he knows that.
We are waiting for the coming weeks if the appeal court ruling will dismantle the council chairmen, if it does. Then that coalition will implode

Someone is building a bipartisanship coalition that is united on a political goal - the Presidency and you are hoping for one weak court case pending to decide local govt chairmen's legality to remain in office to disrupt what exactly ?

Democracy is all about bridge building , dialogue and negotiations.

Wike is doing just that and you are dismissing it .

ibabz:
Let me even pretend I understand the point you’re trying to make.

Can ₦1 million today buy what it could buy five years ago? The answer is obvious. The purchasing power of Nigerians has been severely eroded.

How many civil servants can afford to buy a tokunbo car today? How many can realistically think about building a house? Even many Level 15 officers can no longer afford things that were once within reach for middle-income earners, let alone undertake major projects like home ownership.

What’s even more telling is that many civil servants now struggle to send their children to public universities without relying on NELFUND loans. These are people with stable jobs and regular salaries.

Yet, despite all this, you want people to believe these are signs of economic success and call them achievements? Please wake up and face reality. Economic policies should improve the living standards of ordinary citizens, not make survival more difficult while expecting applause.

You obidients are conformists and in no way reformists.

So you expect the FG to continue subsidizing the naira with dwindling resources in the midst of crippling population explosion that has mounted pressure on the govts ability to maintain FX subsidy to be diverted to imports while seeing to a dying manufacturing base that would have seen to employment of the teeming unemployed?

Nigerians are now aware of what other African countries were going through.

Go to Benin republic and compare the cost of fuel to what you are paying right now and you will wonder how the govt is even able to maintain such pricing without subsidy.

You guys are only angry because the FX subsidy regime is over and this is affecting your import based trading ventures.

grandstar:
The basic reason why Eko Atlantic was created was to end the perenial flooding of Victoria island and has worked.

To biild a new Babel was never the matter. Even the Burj Khalifa is not a Babel tower

To his like, public resources should not go into public infrastructure, schools and hospitals .

So what exactly should public resources be diverted to ?

Brewery venture and safe deposits in merchant banks

Kushites:
YOU ACTUALLY HAVE TIME TO RESPOND TO THAT BITTER SOUL.

NA WA FOR UNA.

CAN YOU IMAGINE IF THIS PPP PROJECT WAS IN HIS STATE OR REGION..

WOULD HE BE SAYING WHAT HE IS SAYING??

Common gully erosion and flooding Obi no fix in his 8ys as governor.

Something that would have required proper drainage and tree planting campaign.

Neyozy1:
You guys expecting GEJ to speak up lacks the wisdom to understand what is called body language. GEJ is not contesting the presidential election but he is showing solidarity with the Turaki faction of the PDP hence his silence.

Which solidarity ?

These same characters that were foundational to PDP's collapse after they ensured Atiku got the ticket despite Wike floating the party for 8ys straight and being the only main opposition figure to the Buhari govt?

GEJ will never align with anything connected to Atiku.

Richtaiwo:
Always on Tinubu thread typing nonsense. At least, Tinubu did this as a governor. Mention one thing, just one the agulu fraud did that endures till date. As in just one legacy of the 3rd class illiterate as the governor of Anambra State.

What he fails to understand is that other than expanding Victoria Island, the Eko Atlantic project also secured the bar beach coastline which was facing aggressive coastal erosion with the FG totally clueless and not concerned in addressing the environmental disaster that if left unchecked would have seen the entire VI swallowed by the Atlantic ocean.

This project is one that took a disaster in the making and turned it into a success.

CodeTemplar:
in a country with 20MW per one million citizen, this is a great idea. He should leave space for generator ooooo. And space for borehole and underwater fence for aquatic security as well as special boat for herbal concoction sellers. Iree ooo.

This project was concieved as a PPP between Lagos and the management of Eko Atlantic and it dates back to Tinubu as governor .

Is it Lagos state that will invest in power production when this is part of the exclusive list?

The money invested here did not come from the FG. The FG only granted approval given that coastal waters and setbacks are federal territory.

Why didn't your obi invest in power generation when he was governor of Anambra ?

CodeTemplar:
saner climes build up productivity before attempting to expand luxury market. You should do the shutting up and stay silent.

The only thing good about the idea that cows cannot easily enter and graze there.

The Eko Atlantic project is driven mostly by foreign investors who believe in the project.


There is no single plot left in Eko Atlantic and what stalled construction was mainly the FX markets destroyed and mismanaged by Emefile .

Most foreign investors are building here in the hopes of selling and leasing out.

They paused on investing in developing their plots because they were aware it will be difficult to repartraite their investments via the FX market under Emefile.

Go to Eko Atlantic now and see how there is massive development going on.

CodeTemplar:
A typical babylonia project. You ignore the next piece of land and say you want to build a house that reaches into the heavens. One man is forced to wait for the last man to complete his house before building his upon it.
It also means the foundation hass to reach the middle of the earth in order to support endless height of fool.

Very foolish idea. This is why God gave us Igbo Hausa and Yoruba. So we can disagree and stop such error and wastage.

Go and build in your village .

Did anybody beg you to come and invest in Eko Atlantic?

Besides, the war against Iran has backfired for Dubai and investors are now pulling out of Dubai

Guess where they are going to be investing in?

Eko Atlantic.

JuanDeDios:
Oh, I didn't know that. So different rates for fellow Jews?

Zero interests

As a Jew you just go to the nearest synagogue , have the mandatory divk inspection to confirm your Jewishness and then tell the rabbi you need a soft loans to start any venture that will scheme the goyim.

It's that easy.

fergie001:
But he didn't counter in court he was present, he only said he didn't know what the agenda was.

That's how dubious the Mark factions is.

They will later get Nwosu to send a resignation letter purported from Gonbe that he had resigned as deputy National chairman.

There is also the Kachikwu faction that was in court seeking to have Nwosu removed long before Atiku and co gate crashed the party.

Kachikwu is before the courts claiming that Nwosu's tenure had since elapsed and was seeking from the court to have Nwosu removed and fresh elections for the party excos.

Even Gombe will still have to contend with the case brought by Kachikwu as it is Kachikwu that has a solid case since Gonbe was part of Nwosu's tenure .

So at the end, it might be Kachikwu's faction that will be recognised by the courts.

Refinedbeing:
Even they played a fast one on Gombe but Atiku will win this case bro. Atiku will be on the ballot.

How?

Gonbe faction has since submitted the name of their successful presidential Primaries to INEC.

The law does not recognise substitution only in the event the flag bearer dies before the elections and that next in line to replace the dead aspirant will be whoever came second in the Primaries.

Lanretoye:
See drama,so if the court rules against David marks camp what will happen to their convention and primaries?

You have reached the voice mail centre.

Press 1 to record your message.

Klington:
Obi's smart exit buried that joke of a party.

Obi is the smartest politician ever in the history of humanity. He's the real master strategist.

There a pending suit by PRP seeking that the court compels INEC to deregister NDC for not meeting the required minimum criteria to be recognised as a political party.

The NDC is only recognised for now by INEC due to a court ruling initiated by NDC to get INEC to recognise them as a bonafide party.

So hold your breath because it might be between APC and PRP.

Penguin2:
I believe all those who blamed Obi for defecting to NDC can now understand it.

First, Atiku would still have won the ADC ticket.

Second, if by any chance Obi had won it, so this is what he would be dealing with instead of focusing on campaigns.

By the time the matter gets to Appeal and Supreme Courts, Atiku’s camp must have been disoriented by confusion.

Obi is the real master strategist.

Where was his master strategist hat when he decamped to ADC?

Did he not see like everyone else that the ADC was being hijacked by David Mark and co?

KanwuliaExtra:
You will wait in vain for that coward “from county to UNIVERSE”!🙄

GEJ is now a coward after being the best thing to happen to SE since Zik.

All because your obi is contesting a guaranteed last position.

I keep saying that it is better to be declared an enemy by you guys than to appeal to you people .

Any help given to you guys is translated as weakness

Well, GEJ can only blame himself for appointing your people to office who damaged his govt so bad with their corruption and ineptitude

saintmm:
You wrote it as it is.
Also, Jonathan is their nemesis. That name scares out the living daylight out of them.
They know Jonathan is the cat that will put their rats where it belongs.
See both begging and yabbing at the same time.
Somehow for them

Jonathan is no fool

If anything he can never support some one like Atiku or your Giringori who when GEJ left office ran to be with same Atiku that formed nPDP.

If not for nPDP, that saw to many PDP governors supporting Buhari, there was nowhere the APC and Buhari would have ousted GEJ.

Also I want you to remember that GEJ was one of the first people to congratulate Tinubu in his house in Lagos. That picture of GEJ embracing Tinubu over his victory you guys have forgotten.

And why call GEJ their nemesis when we both know if it came down to just GEJ and Obi, Nigerians nationwide would rather vote GEJ.

The last position your obi go carry this time around will make him review his life choices.

Usury is a sin condemned by God.

Jews that are at the very forefront of this vice enterprise do not loan to each other on interests.

The book of Deuteronomy laid the foundation for usury and also condemned loaning to fellow Jews on interests.

Jesus Himself condemned the money changers who had taken over the temple and used it as a vault to house their illicit gain from across the Roman empire.

Caesar had passed a decree banning the movement of gold out of Rome but secretly allowed Jews to move their gold out of the capital for Augustus Caesar like his adopted father, Julius Caesar was heavily indebt to Jews. Julius Caesar had borrowed so much from the Jews to wage his war against Gaul and the Germanic tribes and when he finally conquered those lands, there was not enough gold to pillage them of and so Caesar decided to seize power for himself and declare himself Emperor to have access to the state treasury so as to pay the Jews their money he owed them. That's were Caeser gave us the word "cease" because his actions ended the republic and gave rise to a tyranny in place of a democracy.

Augustus had waged a civil war against the conspirators who had rightly disposed Julius and he took borrowed heavily from the Jews.

As concession, Augustus allowed the Jews to repatriate their gold back to Palestine from where it was stored in their so-called sacred temple which was of limits to the gentiles including the Imperial Roman Governor , Pilate Pontius

Roman troops under Pilate had intercepted a suspicious shipment moving in the dead of the night in Jerusalem. They carried out a search and found gold and rightly seized it

Pilate investigated the matter and found out the gold shipment was shipped out of Rome and was destined for the Temple vaults.

The Jews staged a riot and Pilate was ordered back to Rome by Augustus.

The orator and senator , Cicero defended Pilate before the Senate and he was acquitted.

Augustus then gave a stark warning to Pilate that if there ever be any riot in Palestine , he will have his head.

Jews now began plotting a riot and they saw the rabble rousing Jesus as a scape goat and had him arrested and brought before Pilate to condemn on the false accusations of high treason claiming Jesus was behind the insurrection breaking out in Palestine and had declared himself King of the Jews .

Pilate was knew what they intended to do but being a brave and courageous Roman ordered for a trial and when he did not see any wrong the man brought before him had done, he was about to set Jesus free but the rabbis instigated the crowd outside to demand Jesus be put to death .

The Rabbis then knew if they rioted over Pilate not wanting to condemn and innocent man, even Augustus will have their heads so the demanded that Pilate honour a tradition of setting free any condemned inmate at the choice of the crowd.

Pilate agreed to this and brought forty a condemned thief to stand alongside Jesus and to allow the Jews choose who they will set free. After choosing the thief , Barabbas, Pilate washed his hands from the whole affair.

Jews condemned Christ and because all over the Roman empire, only a Roman governor had the power to carry out an execution, the job of executing Christ fell to the Roman legion.

So note that usury merchants were the ones who condemned Christ .

Goo0dHardDick:
GEJ understands the 41 laws of power.

Stay silent and watch your opponents be in more confusion

Dem do marriage for you as a man without your consent and in your absence and you expect me to come and respond to my new in-laws and collect the worwor bride ?

Best answer is to ignore the fools on Atiku's payroll.

jogojogo:
They praised Oti but failed to admit when Oti said he is able to do those projects due to the reform of the president and removal of subsidy.
They also turn deaf hears to what Peter Mbah said about how the reforms had been the back bone of his achievements

Abi like every SE state save for Enugu depends solely and largely on Federal allocations.

They fail to see that the increase in federal allocations is what Otti is using to construct single lane 2km roads at a whooping #6bn per kilometer

gare:
You need to get a life. Making baseless and attention-seeking comments won’t get you anywhere or earn you respect. Some of you sit online twisting narratives as if that’s a contribution to nation-building. It’s not.

Who be this one and from which hole did you crawl out from?

gare:
then you wrote what then? with your brains fill with BS I dont expect anything better from you, so as it stands all is well in the country, I dont blame you its the loan app that borrowed you 2500 to sub that I blame, instead of using that money to eat, you are here defending a failed government looking pronouncement.

Is dat all?

Next time you post bs here, know that you can't walk away from it thinking you don drop quote.

And stop projecting your poverty on others.

I am not the reason you are belly aching broke

Macphenson:
I thought confused agbadorians said Tinubu brought out Goodluck Jonathan because of Peter Obi.
First Wike is on over drive trying to stop their convention, now, Keysmonis ranting like a child.

This Turaki faction are leftovers from the PDP who got Atiku on the ballot in 2023.

If they are working for anybody, it is Atiku and their goal (as stupid as it is) was to get GEJ to contest so as to sweep SS votes..

But GEJ never told anyone he was contesting and if he did, it won't be brokered by the same shady characters in the PDP who worked against their party in 2015.

So rest .

valentineuwakwe:
See keyamo don get mouth dey talk now o..


Power really sweet for this country cos anyone who climbs a little higher can open his or her gutters to spill rubbish.
Let them remember, power is transit n does not last forever!

Keyamo has been talking since he was the head of NANS during military rule under IBB.

gare:
I do not understand why some lawyers seem to set aside legal principles once politics becomes involved. As a lawyer, one would expect consistency in interpreting and applying the law, regardless of political affiliation.

In the case of the PDP issue, how can Festus Keyamo focus only on the faction he believes is not recognized by INEC without fully addressing the implications of the Supreme Court judgment? If the argument is based on the law, then the discussion should begin with what the Supreme Court actually decided and which leadership structure or faction the judgment recognized.

Political preferences are one thing, but legal interpretations should be grounded in the facts, the judgment, and the applicable law—not in partisan considerations.

You just ended up writing a tonne of bs.

I was expecting you to provide the legal pronouncements that recognised this Turaki led faction as the authentic PDP.

Why also do you think Makinde dumped them and is running on the APM platform.

Kanwulia:
Did you see GEJ anywhere?
Let him bring his shameless head out first.🤣

See this one.

So GEJ is now shameless according to you.

Why should GEJ respond to a bunch of jokers .

And why are you insulting GEJ now?

Hangulsaram:
For your mind now u made sense, who or where was south south during Biafraa war, where is bite of Biafra located?

The minorities in the defunct Eastern Region had been agitating to leave your Eastern region for you to no avail since the creation of Eastern Nigeria in 1951.

Western Cameroun cited severe marginalisation for reasons why they wanted to leave Nigeria .

If the outgoing British Governor-General had asceeded to the demands of the coastal minorities to have their own COR region carved out from Eastern Nigeria, western Cameroun would still be part of Nigeria. But since the British listened to their house nigger, Zik , they denied the coastal minorities the chance to have their own region.

Also, do you know that Benue and parts of Taraba were once part of British Southern Protectorate but on hearing of the colonial govt attempt to split southern Nigeria into two protectorates, the indigenes of the aforementioned provinces petitioned the British that they would rather be yoked to the north than be bound to Eastern Nigeria over their total dislike of sharing a region with Ibos.

Nobody wanted to be part of you in the old Eastern Nigeria that was created by the British colonial govt and nobody still wants to be part of you in any useless Biafra rubbish.

youngEmelex:
The Igbos desperately wanted one Nigeria from the beginning. Nnamdi Azikiwe, Odimegwu Ojukwu, Aguyi Ironsi all fought hard to keep Nigeria one. When Isaac Adaka Boro wanted the Niger Delta to break away from Nigeria, the Igbos were at the forefront of crushing that revolution. In 1966, Adaka Boro established the Niger Delta Volunteer Force, an armed group primarily composed of members of the Ijaw ethnic group, and proclaimed the Niger Delta Republic on 23 February 1966. This declaration led to a conflict with federal forces, lasting twelve days before Boro and his associates were apprehended by Ojukwu led soldiers and later charged with treason. Just a year later, the table turned on Ojukwu and he suffered the same fate as Isaac Adaka Boro after he declared Biafra. Fast forward to this present day. Nnamdi Kanu created a security outfit when he saw that Fulani militia were causing mayhem in some parts of the Southeast, the Yorubas were at the forefront of crushing that security outfit and it was a Yoruba judge that sentenced Kanu to life in prison. Few years after that, the Yorubas are creating their own security outfit to contain the influx of Fulani militia. The same way Ojukwu later became victim of what he did to Adaka Boro is the same way the Yorubas will fall victim to what they did to the Igbos trying to protect themselves from Fulani militia massacre. Both tribes are currently sharing the same fate

Ibo man and their lying narrative.

onehope:
After you finish fighting for Tinubu and co, you will still follow me to the market and buy commodities at crazy prices, including fuel and cooking gas. Well, maybe you work as PA or SA with this administration, so no crime, defend your paymaster!

Hunger is that you?
