But he was not given any position as principal officer after Obasa's impeachment
Besides, how come he's the only one being singled out when it was over 90% of the House that signed the impeachment

He wasn't given any principal position because the coup he planned with Meranda and others was foiled by the forces that put all of them in the assembly.
As for the others, who were his co-conspirators in the impeachment saga just remember the fact that the vulture is a patient bird.
The forces that be will probably deal with the other coup plotters in their own due time and way.

Lol....
Watch the movie,The Godfather(1972) When Michael Corleone wanted to kill all his mafioso rivals and enemies,he went to church where a lot of people could see him clearly sitting in the front pew. This was how he created an alibi. At the same time his henchmen were carrying out his orders and ruthlessly killing all the other mafioso Don's who were his rivals.

Desmond Elliot went to attend a wedding in South Africa as an alibi. Everyone knows he was one of the masterminds of Obasa's impeachment in order to be rewarded with one of the principal offices.
It is too late to cry because the head is off. The forces that installed Elliot have decided his office and position is to be taken over by another. Elliot is a self inflicted victim of unbridled over ambition.
Just imagine a rational being who calls himself an assembly man comes into a hall and sees people signing a paper and without reading or asking what the paper entails or is about decides to append his signature.?! Does this guy think everyone is daft and gullible?

Oga your write up makes me sick I couldn't even stand the rubbish you spewed out. However, you unknowingly confirmed my claims.
As you said Nigerians were tired of military rule and wanted them out ASAP this confirmed what I said that the stake holders were United in the rigging that happened no body opposed it they operated freely jumping numbers, young boys running backwards to be counted multiple times it all happened I witnessed it in person not hearsay or any history book. By the way note that history today was some else's current affairs and that 1993 elections was a current affairs to me so I don't need any historian to tell me what I witnessed at least in my own location Mokwa Niger state.
I often hear people say voters queued behind their preferred candidate but that's not exactly current, it was actually the in front of a large poster of their preferred candidate it is good to put it in proper perspective so that those born in the 90s and 2000 will understand well.
I must also mention that there was coercion to join the line with the larger crowd.
So do come and be telling us that that election was perfect it wasn't.

The write up made you sick and the write up is rubbish.......
Understand one thing nobody has a monopoly of insults!

I never insulted you in my write up. If you want to debunk an argument,you do it with facts not insults.
From your first write up,you boldly stated that you were brought to the polling station by your dad,which implies that you were a minor in 1993.
Secondly your reference to Mokwa in Niger state tells me all I need to know about you. Ibrahim Babangida who annuled the 1993 elections is also from Niger state. So psychologically I understand your jaundiced view point. Tribal loyalty is basically a primordial instinct in most Nigerians. I rest my case.
My final response to you.

As a Quentin Tarantino movie fan,if you list the HATEFUL EIGHT,you MUST list RESERVOIR DOGS, and give a honourable mention to KILL BILL.

Barteze:
Exactly what happened in 1993 general elections the supposedly freest election in Nigeria history. I always look at those TV analysts with bombastic eyes each time I hear them eulogies that election because as a little boy then that was the first election I witnessed and I can tell you for free that it was not without rigging the only difference to my little understanding then was that the stake holders were United in the act.

Some of you just create false scenario's in your mind and begin spreading falsehood all over the Internet. It is obvious that you never witnessed that election or you were too young to understand what you claimed to witness.
By 1993 Nigerians were tired of military rule in any form or shape and just wanted the military out of governance. Ibrahim Babangida the head of the military junta never wanted to hand over the governance of Nigeria to anybody. He thought the Option A4 system of voting would fail and end in violence but to his eternal shame and disgrace Nigerians trooped out and queued up in orderly fashion behind the candidates of their choice in the NRC and SDP. Nigerians stood in the rain and sun to vote for the candidates of their choice. It was a free and fair election in my estimation because I cast my vote and it was counted correctly.
Young Nigerians need to know their history. Forget all the propaganda spread by the military government of those days. Babangida,Sanni Abacha,David Mark,Dogonyaro,Diya and other military top shots of that era never wanted to hand over government to any civilians. They just wanted to be playing military game of thrones with the governance of Nigeria. The military regarded the governance of Nigeria as a game of musical chairs in which one military man gets up and another one takes over the chair.
Even if Tofa of the NRC party had won the election the military wouldn't have handed over government to him. It was not an Abiola issue,the simple fact is that the military did not want to quit power at all.

..then let him go back to Nollywood he was even making it big over there

Making which big?
Don't believe everything you see and hear.
Those making real money in acting and music are not up to 5% of those in the industry. Most of it is smoke and mirrors. Illusions.
Elliot has tasted the two ( acting and politics). He knows there is no easy money like politics money . And basically all politicians are selfish and self centred people. He is only interested in the perks and easy money he makes from representation of Surulere. He knows he can never get such money from acting and entertainment, no matter how many years he acts!

Starz825:
Read wetin the guy write again


He is just stating the obvious....no be say he dey support baba sope system of Government

Don't waste your time. He has comprehension issues and is thick.

SmartPolician:
What's the meaning of the emboldened? That criminal group you lots worship must be disbanded!

It is blatantly obvious that you have comprehension issues and are a mental Lilliputian.
I have nothing more to say to a personality that only hears Go and does not hear Come.
Have a not so nice day. I am done with reducing my brain cells which is what having a conversation with your type induces.

ufotunang:
..but why can't Desmond Elliott look forward and contest for house of reps.. move from his political journey

Because the powers that put him there said NO!
When Elliot was benefiting from the system in three different election circles did he complain?

ALHAJIJUJU:
Lo and behold! Alhaji has the Mat and the Slippers!

Note now carefully: that poster was rude to you and dared you!

Do you want the power to punish him?

I offer you -

Commanding tone medicine

Do as I say medicine

Enter his dreams at night medicine

Turn his face backwards on his neck medicine

Turn his hands and legs backward medicine

Make him feel painful fear medicine

Make him sweep without stopping medicine.

The choice is yours.

Verily! Alhaji has the MAT AND THE SLIPPERS, the juju, the tes b, the kettle and the sandbox that sees all things.

Lol...
Very funny.
I believe he has repented of his folly. Leave him be. He is most likely an obidient. They are not usually reputed for being cerebral.

SmartPolician:
If not for Nairaland bots, na better blast you for chop! Who made Lagos State the personal property of your so-called Baba?

I don't really understand this culture of servitude! It's even annoying that you people want to export it to other states!

You don't want to go down that route with me. So caution yourself.
An average actor benefited from an obnoxious system that elevated him above his level and now refuses to accept that the same system is now being used to benefit another person.
You can't have your cake and eat it.
Before any contest you need to understand the rules. Elliot is not even from the Surulere axis of Lagos. He was foisted onto Surulere by the obnoxious Baba Sope system.For over 12 years he did no tangible project for Surulere people . Now the same system that produced him are telling him the game is up and over and now it is the turn of another person to benefit from the same obnoxious system and you are here lamenting as if you are being castrated.
Don't ever dictate to a grown man what he should post on a public forum. I am not responsible for your failure to comprehend my simple post.

I don't understand how (an average Nollywood actor known more for playing romantic roles than an intellectual sagacity) you benefited from a Baba sope system of politics and when Baba says that it is the turn of another person and you are refusing to tow the line that brought you to office.
The powers that be have taken away your office and bestowed it upon another. You don't need an Oracle to tell you that the game is up unless you are thick upstairs.

RichDad1:
Obidients create a scenario in their head and start jubilating. 😂😂

Even the poll on this thread, na dem dem still dey vote Yes and start jubilating afterwards. 😅😅

Lol....
You know their modus operandi very well. They are all over the Internet registered with Yoruba names. That formula don cast long ago!

IGBO GrOUP URGES SOUTH EAST AND SOUTH SOUTH TO PREPARE FOR BIAFRA AGITATION IF 2027 PRESIDENCY IS DENIED
_Group says it is painful to keep depriving Igbos of the presidency after decades of calls for equity_

Enugu, Nigeria – A coalition of Igbo socio-political groups has called on the people of the South East and South south to begin preparing for renewed Biafra agitation if an Igbo candidate fails to secure the Nigeria' presidency in 2027.

In a statement released on Monday, the group said it had become clear that repeated appeals for power rotation and equity had not yielded results, and that part of the old Eastern Region remained sidelined in Nigeria’s political arrangement.

“The South East and South south were once one administrative unit as the old Eastern Region,” the statement read. “We share history, geography, and common interests. It is painful to keep depriving the Igbos of getting Nigeria’s presidency while other regions have taken multiple turns.”

The group said that after over 50 years since the civil war, the South East remained the only zone yet to produce an elected president in the Fourth Republic. It warned that if this injustice continued in 2027, the people would have no choice but to return to the question of self-determination.

The coalition urged all indigenous people of the old Eastern Region in the South East and South south to start making plans, including selling off assets and investments outside both regions, in anticipation of a possible political separation.

It also addressed non-indigenes living in the South East and South south, saying: “We appeal to Yorubas, Northerners, and other Nigerians residing in the old Eastern Region to begin making peaceful arrangements to return to their native lands. This is not a call for violence, but for an orderly process should the people decide to pursue a separate state.”

The statement added that the group would pursue its objectives through peaceful advocacy and international engagement, but warned that the patience of the people was running thin.

Political analysts say the comments reflect growing frustration in the South East over perceived exclusion from the presidency, even as major parties have yet to announce their zoning arrangements for 2027.

Lol....
Empty chest beating,like King Kong, as usual.

The indigenous people will decide the kind of government and constitution they want after the revolution….

Stop your lies and propaganda. Everyone knows the crafty agenda of the convict Nnamdi Kanu is subjugation,terrorism,murder,chaos,tribalism and mayhem which is masquraded as revolution.
From your devious progenitors Azikiwe,Ironsi,and Ojukwu,your ultimate aim is land grabbing and subjugation in order to propagate your zionist supremacist agenda.
No one is decieved by Kanu's empty rethoric and gaslighting.
Just keep any ludicrous revolution in your part of the country. Or better still see if your appeal against the judgement that convicted Kanu,can earn him a reprieve of a lesser jail sentence or does it mean you guys have abandoned him to his fate and all of you have jumped on the Peter Obi for president band wagon.🙂

Selling a proven international standard player of Marcus Rashford's quality to Barcelona for £26 million would be brazen daylight robbery.
The board needs to review the prices placed on these so called outcast players.
How are they even contemplating selling Rashford for such a pittance is mind boggling.
Sancho will probably be allowed to leave on a free transfer. The same with players like Onana,Malacia,Hojlund and Ugarte.
United sign these players for astronomical amounts of money and then put them up for sale for peanuts.
No one should run a business this way!

As far as I am concerned,Big Peter Schmeichel, Dimitar Berbatov,Wayne Rooney and Owen Hargreaves are more reasonable pundits and very fair in their analysis of Manchester United issues.
Scholes,Neville and Keane are just being unnecessarily controversial in order to promote their podcasts. They are interested in their pockets. They know controversy and running against the norm sells on the Internet. They are simply business men searching for number one.
People like Neville shouldn't be running his mouth. He was a very lucky footballer. Average at best. He was an even poorer manager,one of the worst in La liga history. But then controversy sells. People are not interested to hear a dog bit a man but they are certainly interested when a man bites a dog. It is the way of the world.

CrystalTiger:
The way Keane, Neville and Scholes talk down on Carrick surprises me..Are they envious of Carrick or what because their so called criticism is just somehow..

Lol...

All these guys were failures as managers. It is very easy to sit behind a microphone/camera's and bleat out controversy in order to attain likes and curate clicks.
Carrick has actually been clever to avoid replying them and just got on the job of winning as many games as possible and attaining Champions league qualification. Carrick is doing his talking on the football pitch and that is the most important thing.
No distractions. Its called Keeping your eyes on the ball.
