The North West is probably the most important voting bloc in the March/April 2015 election; it’s not only the home base of Major General Muhammadu Buhari, the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), but also that of the sitting Vice President, Muhammed Namadi(na) Sambo. The North West is the home of former Heads of State of Nigeria, Generals Murtala Muhammed, Sani Abacha and Buhari himself, as well as first Executive President, Alhaji Shehu Shagari, and the first and only Premier of Northern Nigeria, Sir Ahmadu Bello. The North West, with seven states and 18.9 million registered voters offers the biggest prize for any presidential candidate. So far, voters in this geo-political zone have collected 15, 827, 842 permanent voters cards (PVCs) with which they hope to dismiss President Goodluck Jonathan this March. The votes of the North West zone are particularly coveted by every presidential candidate. Unfortunately, the people’s will in the impending elections is being subverted by the activities of Vice President Namadi Sambo who has descended with huge bags of money to bribe voters in the North West. There can never be a free and fair election where politicians seek to influence how people vote by giving them money, whether it is hard earned or stolen from the public treasury. Sambo is a lightweight politician who has no significant following in the North West. His attempt to create a political base made him prop up Alhaji Tanko Yakasai to contest the chairmanship of the Arewa Consultative Forum (ACF). Having utterly failed, Yakasai formed the obsequious Northern Elders Council (NEC), a shadowy group confined to periodic issuance of press release in support of the Jonathan presidency. Of course, Yakasai, on account of his bread and butter politics, can never be elected to the chair of ACF. Sambo’s problem in the North West flows directly from his inability to exercise any meaningful influence on the Jonathan presidency. Sambo is a perfect example of a spare tyre. In six years, Sambo hasn’t been able to attract any meaningful project to the North West. The so called independent power project being built for Kaduna is stillborn. The attempt to revive the Kaduna textile plants has floundered. The so-called Abuja-Kaduna single railway, which Labaran Maku repeatedly vowed would be commissioned in 2014, and on which Sambo staked his reputation, has remained a white elephant. The simmering rivalry between Sambo and Sule Lamido, Governor of Jigawa State on one hand and on another level between him and Ibrahim Shehu Shema, Governor of Katsina State, over who among the three should run with Jonathan in 2015, also damaged Sambo’s standing. Each of the two north western governors had at one time or the other been touted as possible replacement for Sambo. In Kaduna, the Sambo boy, Muktar Ramalan Yero, has failed to distinguish himself as a serious governor and is headed for defeat in both the presidential and gubernatorial elections. Early this year, Yero’s frustration with the opposition’s challenge culminated in his being heard on tape threatening the well being of Nasir El-Rufa’i and APC supporters. After promising Jonathan two million votes, the President was surprised to discover that not many people turned up to listen to him when he went to Kaduna to campaign. This explains the PDP desperation to use obscene amount of money to buy the loyalty of voters. Even in the presidency, Sambo is not taken serious and Anyim Pius Anyim, the Secretary to the Government of the Federation, is reportedly more powerful than him. Sambo doesn’t pull his weight at all. At the PDP presidential campaign rally in Nasarawa, he was told point blank that he will not be given the party’s presidential ticket in 2019. In an organised political clime, Sambo would have been given the opportunity to make that stunning announcement himself. Obama may not be inclined to having Joe Biden clinch the Democratic Party ticket for the 2016 presidential run, but he dares not announce that, least of all in the heat of a re-election campaign. Sambo isn’t a leader; he’s a follower and will remain so. Sambo doesn’t seem understand that the essence of a joint ticket is to be able to occasionally sway things in favour of one’s geo- political zone, or at least achieve balance. The role of a Vice President goes beyond flapping one’s starched babban riga and following in the footsteps of the principal. Even when the membership of the so called national conference was skewed against the Muslims, Sambo couldn’t do anything. The Sultan had to lead a delegation to Aso Villa to complain to the President that Muslims were under-represented and all Sambo could do was to join in the photo session, and despite Jonathan’s promise to announce fresh nominations to ensure fair representation, nothing was ever heard about the matter again. Yet, Jonathan has promised to implement the decisions of the national conference if he’s elected and you ask what benefit is there in the resolutions of a conference heavily tilted against Muslims? The North West wants a vice president who’s faithful to the country and not some clueless president. Sambo should be loyal to the country, not Jonathan. The clerics, traditional rulers and other special interest groups are free to collect every dime Namadina Sambo hands them, but they should ask themselves why he didn’t give them this awesome amount of money in 2013 or 2014. They should also ask themselves what job Sambo has done to earn this breathtaking wealth and if there is no clear answer, then they should take the money and vote according to their conscience. If the North West’s voters settle for Sambo’s money instead of the free and fair elections promised by this government, then our people are damned. www.dailytrust.com.ng/daily/opinion/48363-north-west-and-namadi-na-sambo |

At least 10,000 members of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, from five local government areas of Daura Emirate in Katsina State have defected to the All Progressives Change, APC. The decampees were from Daura, Baure, Sandamu, Maiadua and Zango local government areas. Receiving the decampees at a grand reception organised in their honour in Daura, APC’s acting Chairman in the state, Alhaji Abdulkadir Nasir, said the decision of the decampees to join the APC was a sign of victory to the party in the state. According to Nasir, the decampees made a wise decision for joining APC ”because PDP is now losing grounds and has nothing to offer to Nigerians”. He also assured both old and new members of the party equal treatment and advised the new entrants to feel at home in the party. Speaking earlier, the Spokesman of the decampees, who is also the immediate past Commissioner for Health in state, Ahaji Aminu Jamo, said they decided to dump PDP and join APC to “rescue Nigeria from its present predicament.” He accused PDP of lacking focus, quality leadership and stressed the need for change to move Nigeria forward. Jamo called on Nigerians to vote massively for the APC Presidential Candidate, Maj.-Gen. Muhammadu Buhari, describing him as ”an honest and credible candidate”. In his remarks, the APC Governorship Candidate in the state, Alhaji Aminu Masari, assured the people of the state that he would not betray them, if elected into office. He also pledged to transform Katsina State within six months of his tenure, if elected. sources: www.today.ng/politics/over-10-000-pdp-members-dump-party-for-apc-in-katsina/ |

The leadership of the ruling Peoples Democratic Party has distanced itself from the ongoing controversy over the Ekiti rigging tape in which some senior members of the party were heard planning how to rig the governorship election held in the state on June 16 last year. In the recording, Ekiti state Governor, Ayodele Fayose; a former Minister of State for Defence, Musiliu Obanikore Obanikoro, former Senator Iyiola Omisore and other individuals were heard discussing with a serving Brigadier General of the Nigerian Army, Aliyu Momoh, on how to use the military to rig the election in the state. Most of the actors involved in the saga admitted there was a meeting, but they all denied that rigging was discussed. In an exclusive interview with PREMIUM TIMES, the spokesperson of the PDP, Olisa Metuh, said those mentioned in the scandal did not carry out the rigging scheme on behalf of the party. He said the party does not want to get involved in the controversy triggered by the leaked recording and would rather prefer that those mentioned in connection with the matter clear themselves. He said the PDP as a party did not ask anyone to rig on its behalf and will never be engaged in electoral malpractices. “Any tape whether real or imaginary can be concocted in this digital world; we don’t know what is real and what is not,” Mr Metuh said. “I also believe that the actors in their personal capacity will be able to talk about what really happened. “As a political party, we have never engaged in planning or getting involved in any conspiracy to rig elections or alter the will of the people,” Mr. Metuh said. He also said the party has so far demonstrated maturity in elections held in the last two years. Mr. Metuh admitted that he had not listened to the recording but wondered whether the tape was authentic at all. “We had elections in five states in the last two years, PDP won in only one state; how comes its just that one that we won, that a tape is suddenly surfacing to say we planned rigging. “Why did we not plan rigging in Edo, Ondo, Anambra and Osun? How comes the only one that we won is the one they want to tarnish? It is a calculated attempt to sway the minds of Nigerians that the PDP is not capable of winning in a free and fair election. “Our people are even raising the fact that we were rigged out in Osun; but we are not engaged in propaganda, we are not engaged in manufacturing tapes, We won election in Ekiti state because of the love of our party, and the massive support that our gubernatorial candidate, Ayo Fayose, enjoys in the entire state. The PDP spokesperson said the Ekiti tape saga is just another propaganda by the APC, saying if the APC is sure of the authenticity of the tape, it should approach the law courts to seek redress. ” In this era of campaign, where you have a lot of propaganda, anybody with any concrete evidence can go to either the law enforcement agencies or the law courts to seek redress. “For us, we are more involved in the campaign than propaganda; our first thought actually is that it is simply just propaganda, it is only the court that can decide if on the matter of Ekiti election, just like the tribunal and court of appeal have decided. If they think there is fresh evidence, they can go to court,” he said. sources premium times http:///8mvbyy |
