lol. is the question dat hard

Then, who are Lagos-Yorubas?

Jokay07:
there is nothing like lagos-igbos. Using lagos-igbos makes it look as if they are part of ownership. They are mere immigrants who are looking for pasture in yoruba land.

Please i would like to gain understanding of people called Lagos-Igbos?

Confirmento!

This is de best strategy that ll make APC to widely accepted.

I welcome this for the interest of ONE NIGERIA, since he is tested and trusted.

Ahead of November 16
governorship
election in Anambra State,
the Peoples
Democratic Party (PDP) has
perfected
plans to frustrate the
ambition of former
Central Bank of Nigeria
(CBN) governor,
Prof Chukwuma Soludo.
A highly placed source told
Daily Sun that
the ‘Stop Soludo’ campaign
has become
the new mantra within the
highest ranks
of the PDP both at the state
and the
national level with overtures
being made
to Anambra Governor,
Peter Obi, not to
renege on his support for
the emergence
of a candidate from
Anambra North
senatorial zone as his
successor.
The former CBN boss, who
is from
Anambra South zone,
recently resigned
from the PDP and joined
the All
Progressives Grand Alliance
(APGA), a
move considered strategic
and which
seemed to have changed
the tempo of the
tension-soaked
governorship race in the
state.
But Prof Soludo’s ambition
may be
heading for the rocks as
our source
disclosed that power
brokers in PDP had
been ordered to leave no
stones unturned
to ensure that the former
CBN boss does
not pick the ticket of his
new party for the
governorship election.
He informed that the PDP
hierarchy was
uncomfortable with the
resignation of
Professor Soludo from the
party and his
subsequent joining of
APGA to contest the
election.
Daily Sun learnt that
Soludo’s joining of
APGA had become a major
headache to
the PDP hierarchy as it has
cast a
question mark on the
capacity of the
party to succeed APGA
government,
which would leave office
early next year.
Top PDP chieftains in
Anambra State and
Abuja were said to have
been jolted by
the sudden reconciliation of
factions in
APGA and the subsequent
joining of the
party by Soludo.
“While our party is
currently battling with
the challenge of finding an
accommodation amongst
the many
gladiators being sponsored
by the
different factions of the
party in the
forthcoming election, the
last thing that
we had expected was the
entry into the
race by such a formidable
candidate as
Prof. Soludo, especially
through APGA, a
party that is in power and
enjoys fanatical
followership in the state.
“It would make a lot of
sense to eliminate
every obstacle to the
emergence of more
qualified and better-
favouredcandidates
in the other parties against
whom the PDP
candidate would not be a
match,” he said,
adding, “it is also being
canvassed inside
the party that Soludo is the
most
prominent among such
potential
opposition candidates due
to his clout,
acceptability and standing in
the state,” he
said.
He said the PDP was scared
that on
picking the APGA ticket,
Soludo, who
contested the last Anambra
governorship
election would take away
his supporters
that constitute a bulk of the
party’s
membership in Anambra.
Part of the fears in PDP
according to our
source was that the crisis
following the
outcome of the PDP
screening and
selection processes might
result in exodus
of members from the party
and that APGA
and Soludo would be the
greatest
beneficiaries.
Daily Sun was informed
that the PDP was
determined to checkmate
Soludo,
considered as the front-
runner in the
APGA primaries even as the
party is also
worried over who
becomes the APC
candidate.

He wasted Dora's ambition.

bushwailo: It is very easy to set a dry field ablaze and thats what people like Obi do very well.
This is the same 1diot who campaigned by alleging that the Pope endorsed him.

Anytime he is found wanting outside Igbo land, he resorts to tribalism.
This is the same thing he did when El-Rufai gave a damning assessment of his administration.

Obi has taken Anambra aback 20yrs.
@Oliandre, Have u been to Anambra of late ?
Compare Anambra to all its neighboring states.(Enugu, Imo and Delta) Anambra is the worst in terms of development.

That wasn't the case when Ngige was governor.
Obi on record to be the longest serving Goveror in Anambra atate (And this includes the Old Anambra State)
What legacy has this guy going to leave behind ?
How many Anambrains/ Igbos (including yourself) have bothered to call the guy to book.

All of a sudden 14 lunatics sent to Anambra is now your biggest problem.

If Anambrains are fools (which I strongly think they are)
Let them be deceived to vote once more on Tribal or Catholic lines
The concequences are there for everyone to see

TAA!!! KPUCHIA ONU GI....
This is the period in the history of Anambra, we are witnessing rapid development, new businesses, real estate, commercial building mostly private sector driven, not to talk of public administration courtesy of Peter Obi. The influx of businesses in Awka is like never before with the increase in population, indigenious contractors are the ones that handle greater percent of the contracts in the state, this the reason why money is readily available for our people to carry on this ever-increasing development in Anambra.
O KWA N'AWKA IKA ANYI NO??

They are trying to bring Anglican/Catholic factor into Anambra Politics, that will not work. Ngige is a catholic too. So faith is never a factor here.
SOLUDO ALL THE WAY!!

UNIZIK the fastest growing University now, the rate at which structures are goin up there is astronomical, they ve greater number of depts. ...watch out for this emerging GIANT!

Ijaws, Urhobo, Isoko, Edo, Igbo, Igala, Idoma, Itsekiri, Hausa, Efik/Ibibio etc. Let's decide in 2015. We are LAGOSIANS!!

Let the game begin..

danjohn:

I have truly come to realize that in politics there are no permanent friends and enemies. I completely agree with PointB on this one. Lagos is a microcosm of Nigeria. If there is any state in Nigeria where a non-indigene can get elected, it would be Lagos. Lagos could set the pace for national integration. Nigeria needs to move away from State of origin and start focusing on state of residence. If a person has made Lagos his home, has children enrolled in Lagos school, owns a business that contributes to the Lagos economy, and is an active member of the community, why shouldn't such a person be given a shot at rising through the ranks of the political ranks in Lagos?

I guess, Lagosians would prefer an Alao Akala to replace Fashola than a Donald Duke to replace Fashola. I am from the South South and for the record, if Fashola met the residency requirement of my state, I wouldnt mind if he became governor of my state. We need to shine our eyes in Nigeria and stop being sentimental. We need good governance and we need it now. If a Hausa man or an Idoma man or an Igbo woman can complete Fashola's vision of making Lagos state a mega city then so be it.

Right on point bro!!

jason123:

Stop wasting your time. The only "non-indigenes" interested in your adventures are fellow Igbos. Most non-indigenes don't have time for this. I'll advise any political party (like PPA..lol...who presented an Igbo woman with a Yoruba middle-name in the last election. I think only her family voted for her..lol) that wants to present an IGBO man not to WASTE their money. It will be a colossal waste!

The fact that Igbos make-up greatest number of population of non-indigenous lagosians will never guarantee their being the governor in 2015. It will interest to have an origin of edo, delta, as well as benue, kaduna, ebonyi etc flying the popular candidate flag for LAGOS GOVERNOR. The electorates in lagos will decide!

koruji: Again, if you don't know, you are promoting conspiracy against Yoruba in Yoruba-land.
You will bite more than you can chew and lose you head in the process.
Olosi - you haven't learnt any lessons, as I have always said on this forum.

There is no conspiracy against lagos indigenes. We are compaigning as rightful citizens of one nigeria, and we hope lagos indigenes give maximum support to any popular LAGOSIAN candidate come 2015. We are Lagosians!!

The alliance by LP, APGA, ANPP, CPC in lagos will be the breakthrough in havin NON-INDIGENOUS LAGOS GOVERNOR in 2015.
