Bride price is bride price regardless of how much you spent. The fact remains that you paid something.

You people should allow Igbos with their traditions. Face yours.

You don't expect Igbos to behave like a particular tribe that accepts 2 cups of red oil and Cameroon pepper of 230 Naira as bride price.

You don't expect Igbos to behave like some tribes where the man will have to take 100+ strokes of cane as bride price.

There are levels to qualities and standard in everything. Igbo women are standard, that's why people leave their tribes where you can marry with just pepper and oil, come down to Igbo land to spend more than half of a million for bride price.

Adaeze and Achalugo nwanyi oma is different from Nwanyi ofe mmanu! The quality is the difference and the difference is the quality.
No wonder they have the highest number of spinsters Nationwide with their ladies clocking 40 and above and with no Man to marry them when their women are being SOLD to the highest bidder under the guise of brideprice. No wonder they are slaves in their marriages..Rubbish

I have a different opinion.The Obama judge threw it out because it's not within his mandate to overturn elections.
SC judge Alto ordered them to not count late ballots and to allow republican pollwatches to be within 6feet if ballot counters.Case goes to SC where they meet Judge Alto.Whaddaya think gonna happen then.
Joe Biden is not president elect yet
He did not tell them not to count it..He only told them to separate it which is already what state rules are so there is nothing there

But because all the days of your lives,all you do is to follow liars and those that will be telling you nothing but lies

"On Friday evening, Justice Samuel A. Alito Jr., who received the petition because he is the justice responsible for that region, approved the GOP request for now, ordering county boards to comply with state guidance to keep the late ballots separate. However, Alito did not direct election officials to stop counting the ballots, as the Republicans had also sought. He called for a response from state officials by Saturday afternoon

Even if the high court were to ultimately side with Republicans, the impact would likely be muted: Pennsylvania officials said they are already setting aside the small number of mail ballots that have arrived since Tuesday.

But the move was part of a broader scramble in the courts by President Trump’s campaign and other Republican figures as Biden improved his lead in Pennsylvania, Georgia and Nevada"

To claim that a lawyer who have lost 2-34 without providing the said evidence in the greatest lawsuit in the history of US elections will just stroll to the appeals court, and then to supreme court does not know anything at all, he is just an empty head . They have to start from the state court, then to the Federal courts, when he ultimately fails then to the appeals, then to the Supremes that is if they are even stupid to hear the case.

That's Nigeria for you. You guys better start fighting for Nigeria the same way we fought in the Fruited Plains to defeat Trump. If not Nigeria will be permanently doomed. Of what significance is the gift when the guy can but it himself. Millions of people are hungry and the idiotic and inept Governor is spending State money on his friends and cronies.
Bro,I beg to disagree..The governor is actually one of the best in Nigeria presently and he is doing well.A greater number of citizens love him and he is not a bully like Trump.He listens to cristisms and change as at when due.

There is nothing wrong in compensating your friends that might have worked for your campaign.It is done all over the world.And mind you,there is a possibility that the governor bought it for him from his pause..He declared his assets made public when he came into power and he is worth about 49Billon naira.A whopping billionaire and not a fake ass one like the orange one.so he might have even bought it from his own purse..This is the only way he can compensate big wigs like taiye that worked for him..not that he is buying cars for everybody

Infact,Members of his party are even complaining that the Govornor sidelined them,this and that.That politicians are not put into executive roles but technocrats.Which we all support..He compensates politicians and put technocrats into executive positions..Positions that will make the state run well

so far he is doing well..Education is free unlike in the past,He just got Lautech for Oyo state,something previous administrations were not able to do..lots of Infrastructure being done,here and there.so compensating your political associate once in a while isnt too bad as long as it wont in any way affect the workings of government

As for the bolded portion, the election authorities in Pennsylvania were ALREADY segregating the ballots that arrived after 8pm on Election Day.
And those ballots were NOT added to the current vote totals in the state. Even if they were added, those ballots won’t dent Biden’s lead in the state.

With regard to your other point the certification of Georgia’s votes coming with a “caveat”, you couldn’t be more factually wrong. As long as the votes are certified, any extemporaneous speech by the Governor or some other state official is basically meaningless.
Yes, Governor Kemp, being a supporter of Trump, has the right to express his sadness on Trump’s loss; but so long as the results are certified, NO court will create a “expressed doubt” exception to the existing election rules.

Trump tries to subvert the election, inviting Michigan G.O.P. lawmakers to the White House

After failing repeatedly in court to overturn election results, President Trump is taking the extraordinary step of reaching out directly to Republican state legislators as he tries to subvert the Electoral College process, inviting Michigan lawmakers to meet with him at the White House on Friday.

Mr. Trump contacted the Republican majority leader in the Michigan State Senate to issue the invitation, according to a person briefed on the invitation. It is not clear how many Michigan lawmakers will be making the trip to Washington, nor precisely what Mr. Trump plans to say to the lawmakers. The president has made few public appearances since the election and his daily schedule often has no events scheduled, despite the worsening coronavirus pandemic.

The White House invitation to Republican lawmakers in a battleground state is the latest — and the most brazen — salvo in a scattershot campaign-after-the-campaign waged by Mr. Trump and his allies to cast doubt on President-elect Joseph R. Biden Jr.’s decisive victory.

It comes as the Trump campaign and its allies have been seeking to overturn the results of the election in multiple states through lawsuits and intrusions into the state vote certification process, often targeting cities like Detroit, Philadelphia, Milwaukee and Atlanta with large and politically powerful Black populations. Mr. Trump himself reached out personally to at least one election official in Wayne County, Mich., home of Detroit, who tried to decertify the results there.

Some members of Mr. Trump’s team have promoted the legally dubious theory that friendly legislatures could under certain scenarios effectively subvert the popular vote and send their own, pro-Trump delegations to the Electoral College.

The Michigan Senate leader who received Mr. Trump’s invitation, Mike Shirkey, said in an interview earlier this week with Bridge Michigan, a local news outlet, that the Legislature would not move to appoint its own slate of electors, stating, “That’s not going to happen.”

The statewide canvassing board, a bipartisan four-member panel, is responsible for certifying Michigan’s election results by a Monday deadline, a step that must take place before any move could be made to change the electors.

One of the Republican members of the board, Norm Shinkle, said in an interview on Thursday that he was coming under enormous pressure regarding his vote, which he said was complicated by a late night announcement from the two Republicans on the four-member canvassing board in Wayne County, which includes Detroit, that they wanted to “rescind” their votes to certify the county’s results.

Mr. Trump reached out Tuesday night to one of those Republicans, Monica Palmer, to thank her for her support, according to two people briefed on the call. Ms. Palmer and the other Republican board member, William Hartmann, had initially refused to certify the election results, before relenting Tuesday night after a public outcry and accusations of that they were trying to disenfranchise voters in Detroit, which is more than three-quarters Black. Ms. Palmer and Mr. Hartmann are white.

On Tuesday, Mr. Shirkey condemned threats of violence received by members of the Wayne County board of electors, and he indicated that the legislature would conduct their own investigation, but that it was not their place to resolve questions about the election.

“Additional concerns have been brought before the courts, which is the proper place to resolve questions of legality surrounding the state elections process,” Mr. Shirkey said

“There is no legal mechanism for them to rescind their vote,” Tracy Wimmer, a spokeswoman for Michigan’s top election official, Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson, said on Thursday. “Their job is done and the next step in the process is for the Board of State Canvassers to meet and certify.” That meeting is scheduled for next Monday.

The Trump campaign’s lead election lawyer, Rudolph W. Giuliani, announced Thursday morning that the campaign was withdrawing a federal suit it had filed seeking to stop the certification of results in Wayne County. The campaign attached the affidavits to the dismissal notice.

Mr. Biden won nearly 95 percent of the vote in Detroit and around 70 percent of the vote in Wayne County en route to winning Michigan by more than 150,000 votes.

After Ms. Palmer and Mr. Hartmann initially refused to certify the election results over slight discrepancies in majority-Black precincts, while ignoring similar problems in heavily white areas of the county where Mr. Biden won a far smaller share of the vote, public outcry ensued, with 300 voters and civil rights leaders on a Zoom call expressing outrage.

Hours later, Ms. Palmer and Mr. Hartmann changed course and voted to certify. But in their affidavits the next day, they effectively said that they had been bullied into voting for the certification and that they did not believe the Democrats on the board were following through with their promise to ensure an independent audit of the Wayne County results.

The announcement about the Republicans’ attempt to rescind their certification votes arrived in a news release from a Virginia-based public-relations firm, ProActive Communications, that has been paid millions for consulting work for Mr. Trump’s campaign and whose founder, Mark Serrano, has been a frequent television defender of the president’s.

With the withdrawal of the Wayne County suit, the Trump campaign and its Republican supporters have now lost or withdrawn from all of their major legal actions in Michigan, although the state’s Supreme Court is still considering an appeal of a lower court’s decision not to halt the certification of Wayne County’s results.

Trump campaign drops lawsuit challenging Michigan voting results

President Trump's reelection campaign said Thursday that it is dropping a lawsuit challenging voting results in Michigan, which show Democrat Joe Biden narrowly carrying the battleground state.

“This morning we are withdrawing our lawsuit in Michigan," Rudy Giuliani, Trump's personal attorney, said in a statement.

Giuliani, the former mayor of New York City, said the decision to rescind the lawsuit is the "direct result of achieving the relief we sought: to stop the election in Wayne County from being prematurely certified before residents can be assured that every legal vote has been counted and every illegal vote has not been counted."

The Trump campaign's lawsuit had attempted to stop Wayne County, Michigan's most populous county and includes Detroit, from certifying its election results, alleging that thousands of invalid ballots were counted by election workers.

On Tuesday, the Wayne County Board of Canvassers -- in an abrupt about-face -- unanimously certified election results that showed Biden beating Trump, hours after two Republicans blocked formal approval of the votes cast.

The two Republicans, Monica Palmer and William Hartmann, later claimed in signed affidavits they only voted to certify the results after “hours of sustained pressure" and after getting promises that their concerns about the election would be investigated.

A person familiar with the matter told The Associated Press that Trump reached out to Palmer and Hartmann on Tuesday evening after the revised vote to express gratitude for their support.

“We deserve better — but more importantly, the American people deserve better — than to be forced to accept an outcome achieved through intimidation, deception, and threats of violence,” they said in a statement Wednesday night. “Wayne County voters need to have full confidence in this process."

State officials said the certification of the Detroit-area vote will stand.

Trump lost Michigan by about 155,000 votes, according to unofficial results still being certified by county boards of canvassers. There is no evidence or proof of widespread election fraud.

Federal and state officials from both parties have declared the 2020 election safe and secure. But Trump and his allies have spent two weeks raising false claims of fraud and refusing to concede to President-elect Joe Biden.

https://www.foxnews.com/politics/trump-campaign-drops-lawsuit-challenging-michigan-voting-results

"Giuliani, the former mayor of New York City, said the decision to rescind the lawsuit is the "direct result of achieving the relief we sought: to stop the election in Wayne County from being prematurely certified before residents can be assured that every legal vote has been counted and every illegal vote has not been counted."

State officials said the certification of the Detroit-area vote will stand.

They’ve moved from the legal challenge phase into the alternative fact phase"
