Teslim promised to deliver the 99 delegates votes of Oyo State to Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu. In summary he said Oyo belongs to Tinubu.

Everybody japa...... Lol
Politics too sweet

The closed door meeting of the South East aspirants of the All Progressives Congress to decide on a consensus candidate for the region ended abruptly on Friday following report that only 13 presidential hopefuls met the standard of the screening committee.

Chairman of the screening committee, John Odigie-Oyegun, had submitted the much-awaited report of the exercise to the APC National Chairman, Abdullahi Adamu, at the party secretariat.

He, however, failed to reveal the names of the disqualified 10 aspirants, who didn’t make the list.

This is even as he encouraged the leadership of the party to further trim the list drastically.

The shocking report disrupted the meeting of the Igbo aspirants, which just like their South West counterpart, have been meeting to influence the APC into zoning the ticket to their region.

In attendance were embattled former Minister of State for Education, Emeka Nwajiuba; former Imo State Governor, Senator Rochas Okorocha; the only APC female in the race, Mrs Uju Ken-Ohanenye; former Senate Speaker, Ken Nnamani; former Minister of Science and Technology, Ogbonnaya Onu; Ikeobasi Moleku and Ebonyi State Governor, Dave Umahi.

Although their last meeting took place at the at the Maitama home of Okorocha days before he was raided by operatives of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, the venue of the current roundtable was not disclosed.


A source had earlier told The PUNCH that just as the South-West leaders, the Igbo aspirants have resolved to consider throwing their weight behind one of their own ahead of the APC convention.

He also disclosed that all the presidential hopefuls in the South East were equally meeting almost on daily basis.

Ohaneye, who also confirmed the report in a phone chat, disclosed that they could no longer carry on with the consensus talk after they read the screening report in the news.

“No, we could not continue the meeting because of the breaking news. We heard about the new list talking about some disqualified aspirants. Whatever we have to do, we first need to find out who and who have been disqualified,” she said.

Meanwhile, report says that the president will meet with all the 23 aspirants on Saturday at the State House for a meeting with the president.

Asked if she is aware of the meeting, the only lady left in the race for APC sole ticket said that an invitation has not been extended to them.

She also debunked the report making the round that the screening results must have been communicated to all the aspirants.

Fayemi performance as Ekiti governor does not inspire any confidence or enthusiasm at all.

* Says no aspirant has been disqualified

It's only foolish clowns whose brains have been eaten up by hate that will think Tinubu will be disqualified by the Apc. The only part of their brains responsible for rational thinking has been eroded by bitterness and hate. You have a right not to support anybody you wish but show some semblance of intelligence about it. Some of you make it appear like there's a trophy given for being foolish on nairaland.

Truthisunique2:
Zombie na you clear them?

The list is top secret only available to oyegun and the cabal

But he gave the aspirants the criteria he used which is age

Now do the maths yourself and find out what age would be able to screen out 10 aspirants

Where did you hear age? Certainly in your bitter head not from oyegun because I watched him live on geetv. If you want to stop fooling yourself I can help you with the link of the video of his submission of the report. That's if fooling yourself everywhere is not a calling for you.

That's the link to watch the full video of oyegun submission of report. Just stop being foolish ok?

Richandsimple:
A recent review of anti Tinubu comments on Twitter & Facebook indicates that virtually every comment,tweet or post against his presidency comes from one section of the country.

An analyst speaking on zoom described the trend as one of the unexplainable tendencies of the human mind to hate that which you desire for yourself.

Tinubu has provided unparalleled leadership for the Yoruba race in the SW resulting in rapid development,cohension and respect amongst the Nigerian entity.

His lieutenants can be found in strategic positions even in the SE were all the hate on SM is coming from.

;;!!!!?;;;;;;!!!!!!!!!??!;!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!;:'"':

fuke:
I've read how angry some people are about Tinubu's recent statements, particularly his one in Ogun and his claim that Buhari should repay him for his support in 2015.

And I wonder what people expect.

Life is an abstract, and politics is an abstract even more so. What you see on the surface does not tell the entire story. Many things happen in politics that many of us are unaware of. Furthermore, Tinubu is a game master who must have a reason to say whatever he says.

We must also understand that Tinubu did not travel to Abeokuta to give an impromptu speech. Whatever he said there had to be approved by his team of advisers and assistants, who are top professionals in journalism, public relations, politics, phycology, and other related fields.

Asiwaju is beating a kole ya, koya drum. Allow it to burst if it is going to burst.

Consider the case of Ogun. Both Osinbajo and Abiodun are not on his side, and if the convention goes to delegates, Ogun will not give Tinubu a vote, as anyone can see. So why is Tinubu refusing to take his pound of flesh now? You still want him to beg them when he knows exactly where they belong.

Abiodun was not in the APC political equation in 2019 when Tinubu used his influence to enthrone him, and Asiwaju spoke publicly for the first time about how he recommended Osinbajo as VP. If he doesn't call Abiodun "eleyi" right now, when will he? To wait until he has been politically buried. They are both jerks, and they should be told so emphatically.

Many of us are unaware that, despite what appears to be a restriction of trade in contract law, when people are helped to political positions, they make gentleman agreements to pay back. I am confident that Buhari and Yemi Osinbajo made such concessions to Tinubu back in 2015. It is only fair that he asks them to remember the promise they made.

Asiwaju is not frivolous, we must admit, and he does not speak in any case. This is election season, and he needs to speak up.

He has not previously said anything negative about the president, and all he asks is that the president be nice to him in the same way that he has been nice to him. Omobokiri stated that Tinubu should have waited for Buhari to cheat him before reacting.

Who does that? I laugh. To wait until his head is severed before complaining. Outside of Tinubu, it is clear that Buhari and the cabal have a different game plan; otherwise, why are they constantly changing the goal post? What do Daura, Buhari's uncle, and Jonathan have in common? Why are they meeting if not to thwart Tinubu's plan? Jonathan withdrew when he realized he would be defeated in any election against Tinubu.

They truncated the statutory delegate arrangement, and when they realized that even with one delegate from a state, Asiwaju would win, they were talking about anointing somebody besides him, and you people want him to still be playing the choir boy?

They have gathered the wood to roast Tinubu, and what is left is to strike the match. You want the man to lie flat on the wood without a fight?

You think Tinubu is so daft not to know what Buharis intention is? He is not as daft as to not have a mole in the presidency. And he must have sent emissaries to the president on this and when he realized Buhari was not going to bulge, he had to let them know he had some political muscles.

He has to speak out and he is doing so, even if he does not become president, and it would be on record that he has fought a good fight. They have already made up their mind, and the only way to change it is for them to know that some people could spoil the soup for them. The only way for them to know is to tell them.

If they all agree on a consensus, so be it, but if there is just one dissent, let them vote. And if Buhari could use his influence to defeat Tinubu, so be it too. That is the only way to have peace in APC, and unfortunately, some people are praying fervently for peace to elude them.

A friend like kashim shettima. Very rare!

Fake news

We know it's the work of those whose brains have been eaten up by hate.

Tissaia:
lemme let you on a secret. We northerners voted Buhari because of corruption, we prefer Osibanjo to continue the fight. Tinubu somehow magically clinch the ticket we will vote Atiku, at least Atiku will invest in the north when he steal it. There's no way in hell tinubu becoming Nigeria's president get that into you skull. I repeat there's no way in hell tinubu will become Nigeria's president. Repeat this mantra till you get it

You can say other things but please don't you ever talk about fight against corruption again. Don't you ever!

This regime is the most corrupt in the history of Nigeria democracy. The massive looting is unprecedented.

This is the only way forward for the south west.

Lawan sef don vex oooooooooo
I'm loving this right now.

It doesn't look like Buhari has time for Apc. He has enjoyed his tenure, it doesn't look like he cares at all.

Mr tourist on the move again.
The confusionist has left everyone in suspense.

fergie001:
The only thing APC can do now, is follow the list INEC has. The judgement was quite late, INEC didn't even respond it was only the APC Chair that did.

I still think the judgement was delivered per incuriam.

It's still strange to me how the national assembly members will pass a law that bars them from voting in the convention of their parties. How nobody saw this still remains a mystery to me. Both rep and senate nobody saw this? These guys are just clowns. Ahmed lawal be done corner all National assembly members. Lol....badt guy

fergie001:
‘Tinubu boys’ secure court order allowing statutory delegates to vote at APC convention
https://dailynigerian.com/tinubu-boys-secure-court/

A Federal High Court sitting in Kano on Friday granted an order directing the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC and Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, to allow statutory delegates to participate in the forthcoming party’s national convention.


If this is served on INEC and the APC before the primary what will happen? This whole confusion was caused by the incompetent Ahmed lawal and his fellow charlatans called lawmakers.

We know the animals involved in the spreading of fake news and hatred. They've populated nairaland, by their conducts making the platform look like a collection of fools.

Ahmed lawan and co made laws to throw the nation into confusion.

fergie001:
Tomorrow is Saturday.....
No Court will issue that unless the President wants it.

I wanted to outline points that will will explain better but I think this place I quoted have settled it. The 1999 CFRN did not talk about Statutory Delegates, it is the APC and even PDP Constitutions that highlight same.

Again, INEC derives her powers from the Constitution and when not clashing with the 1999 CFRN or Electoral Act....they are in order. When you can challenge INEC's powers is where there is a clash, if there is none wrt the bolded, they are free.

It's advisable to go ahead with the already submitted list to avoid stories that tikcles the anus. That over 8000 delegates is even too cumbersome.

tnerro1:
So should PDP redo their convention?

They've held theirs already.

Jimasun:
You are a big joke if you think APC will allow any nonsense statutory delegate.
Give it up, BAT has lost!

Keep quiet and learn. This is issue of law not Tinubu.

vicdom:
What are you even saying?? that APC should go and withdraw the list and submit a new one at this injury time?? You don't even know law. I'm 100% certain that if APC tries it, there would be multiple litigation against the party and INEC. The best is to go ahead with the convention.

You're ignorant of the law and precedence. Go read my response to fergie001.

fergie001:
It has become academic, APC has submitted their delegates list already.

INEC's letter to the Political Parties:
“In compliance with Article 4.5.1 of the INEC Regulations and Guidelines for the Conduct of Political Party Primaries, a political party that adopts the indirect primary mode, shall make available to the commission not later than seven days to the date of the primary, the list of persons that will form the delegates that are eligible to vote for nomination of the party candidate to contest every elective position.“

I disagree with you again fergie001. Don't forget that the seven days notice of submission of delegates list is just a mere guideline by INEC for operational purposes. You remember what the supreme court said in the case of Wike and dakuku peterside? Where the SC said a mere guideline by INEC can not supersede the provisions of the constitution of the federal republic of Nigeria as regards the use of smart card reader. It was after that judgement that the card reader was incorporated as law. That was how Wike escaped.

fergie001:
My advice to APC is that this is a poisoned chalice that is sure to be pursued in higher Courts.

Use your adhoc delegates and proceed with your Convention. This overnight Kano judgement should be looked at critically.

Moreover, it has become academic.....APC has submitted their delegates list already

I disagree with you completely. The judgement is in accordance with the constitution of the federal republic of Nigeria. The electoral act is subject to the constitution and the constitution already guaranteed the participation of statutory delegates in conventions like this. This is another poor job done by Ahmed lawan and co. I watched a lawyer explain this last week on TV. It's so clear that I was wondering if nobody knew about that section of the constitution.

As long as the convention has not taken place before the judgement it's still very implementable, the 7days submission of delegates list notwithstanding. This is a court judgement and INEC as a party is bound by it. We've seen INEC change names of candidates weeks to elections after the close of submission of candidate as a result of court orders and judgement.

However I think it's safer to proceed with the initial arrangement. But I won't be surprised if a restraining order of court against the party appears from nowhere on Monday saying don't conduct convention unless statutory delegates are allowed to vote. Fear Nigeria politicians oooooo.

vicdom:
This judgement is a mere academic exercise, because the event of the past has taken over the judgement already.

APC had already forwarded the list of delegates that will vote in the primary.

According to our electoral law, all political parties shall submit the list of delegates that will vote in any convention, not later than 7 days before the stipulated date.

The electoral act is subject to the constitution at all times. Know this and know peace.

PrinceOfLagos:
Buhari has the final say

Same court said same shiit during the APC chairmanship tussle but Buhari still had his way

Tears don finish for una eyes abi?
Continue to console yourself there.
