Xscape1993: One man in one corner is talking about the choice of a Senate President when the process is still under question...we have completely lost our core values as living beings....
those questioning the process are asking unnecessary questions.
Omicronvaccine: A spokesperson for the Labour Party presidential campaign, Kenneth Okonkwo has called out Lagos State Governor and Lagos governorship candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Babajide Sanwo-Olu over his 'sudden' display of humility after previously feeling too big to attend Lagos State gubernatorial debate, IGBERETV reports.
Taking to his Twitter handle on Monday, Okonkwo said Sanwo-Olu will learn that power does not come from Bourdillon but power belongs to the people.
Bourdillon is the Lagos residence of Bola Tinubu who is regarded as the political godfather of the state.
Okonkwo predicted that the Labour Party's governorship candidate, Gbadebo Rhodes-Vivour would win the forthcoming governorship election in Lagos State.
Obi: I’m not challenging outcome of presidential election — just the process AUTHOR: Idris Shehu MARCH 13, 2023 11:33 AM Peter Obi, presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP), says he is only challenging the process leading to the declaration of Bola Tinubu as the president-elect.
Last month, the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) declared Tinubu, candidate of All Progressives Congress (APC), as the winner of the presidential election held on February 25.
Obi resorted to challenging the result in court, alleging irregularities by the electoral commission.
Consequently, the court of appeal granted leave to Obi to have access to all the sensitive materials used by INEC for the election. But, On Saturday, LP accused INEC of not allowing Obi’s lawyers access to the materials despite the court ruling.
Speaking in a chat with Arise TV on Monday, Obi said he is not interested in challenging the “outcome” of the election.
He said INEC, as a public institution, should always submit itself to scrutiny from Nigerians.
“INEC is a public institution and it should be open. Because if you do something and people are not satisfied then you should be able to open up yourself,” Obi said.
“INEC has conducted an election and announced the winner but I am only asking that I have access to the materials that were used to arrive at the result. I am not asking you to change what you said.
“I’m not challenging their declaration. Or rather, I am not challenging who they declared. I am not challenging whatever the outcome is. I’m challenging the process by which they arrived at their declaration.
“And unless we do that, we are not going to stop the rascality we witnessed in that election. The process through which people come into the office is far more fundamental than what they do thereafter.
“There is a process of doing things, of arriving at every destination. A process is important.” Source:
kk2027: My guess is that PDAPC in Lagos has always worked together. I may be wrong but I have never really seen any strong opposition in Lagos.
I was telling someone then that I think Jimi Agbaje just dey play then.
APC has never really had any opposition in Lagos because if you pay close attention, you'll see the PDP candidate is usually "unserious" about opposing the government of the day
For the first time, I see APC being given a run for their money in Lagos
I pray a true Lagosian wins this time, they deserve to govern their own state just like others are doing in their various states
life na luck.grv overnight became more popular but do not be deceived.Sanwolu will win
If you can't handover your daughter or sister for Marriage to a sick old man with dementia not physically and mentally fit and he is not aware of his environment with parkinson disease but you want this same man to head over 220 million Nigerians then may you and your family know no peace
this ur comment does it makes sense?.did Nigerian constitution say old or sick ppl shouldn’t contest elections?Why didn’t u try to assasinate him as that’s the only way he wouldn’t be on the ballot.Don’t you know his house in ikoyi!U will just be talking rubbish like ur oga Peter obi.
The governorship candidate of the Labour Party, Gbadebo Rhodes-Vivour in Lagos State has claimed that Peter Obi won over 900,000 votes in Lagos with the APC receiving over 160,000 votes.
Rhodes-Vivour made the claim while playing a guest on Arise TV's The Morning Show on Sunday.
He said: “We've seen our original results, we have our original polling unit results and we know that we won Lagos with over 900,000 votes.
“APC [received] around 160,000 votes, that is what our PU results are telling us and the situation is that PDP is saying the same.”
Emir8: El-Rufai should not be SGF. EL-RUFAI has openly insulted Tinubu before. He should be given Minister of state like Keyamo
bro this is one part of tinubu that I want to learn.he is not vindictive.Even aregbesola that publicly insulted him will be given a minister.Tinubu does not fight those that fight him.I have copied this part of him.
i will never be so partisan and fanatic to lose my sense of reasoning.so a man of Elumelu age and level should be avoiding tinubu because of one small boy called Obi and some yahoo boys called obidents.He did well not to have responded.
everything u said was ok but how do u think tony Elumelu will accept to be cbn gov.It’s like like telling me to go and be local govt chairman now.That’s an insult
Judgesledge: Yeah, Tinubu will live longer than Peter Obi, my guess is that Peter Obi will live longer than you, since we are in the business of prediction, and for your information I am already dead
lol how are u dead again.Do we have dead men section on nairaland?una matter don tire me
Welovetruecrime: Please you can tell us more because from what we are seeing from this side, Gun violence is too much.
