Please confirm if any of your kids or relations have ever tasted Vice president Osibanjo Jollof rice in their various schools. The money going into that scheme is higher than budget for education.

Mr Obiegbuna Elochukwu is a Die hard Arsenal.

I wish you success Mr Arsenal.

I am amongst the multiple who are excited about the Atiku/Obi presidential ticket.
This excitement is not just because of the “correctness” of the partnership, my joy stems from the process through which they got here.The PDP convention/primary in Port Harcourt on the 6th-7th of October, 2018, which Atiku won,was very credible and transparent.As transparent as the process that KILLED the [3rd ] term agenda.
I watched it live on tv from the beginning till after midnight when NEPA did their usual and I slept. I saw part of the process of votes collation and counting as I was getting ready to go to church on Sunday. It was a flawless process! And kudos to all the contestants as well.Good spirit of sportsmanship!
The process and the Atiku/Obi ticket gives me hope and reaffirms my faith in Nigeria . Nigeria will be great again. The Atiku/Obi government, when elected, will kill nepotism, clannishness, incompetence and impunity. Nigeria can be recovered and revived. The Nigeria of our founding fathers, the Nigeria of the booming and glorious 1970s-1980s, the Nigeria of our dreams will rise again and from there, it will only get better and better. The Atiku/Obi ticket is the Nigeria's Damascus road of holistic conversion and recovery.
Of all the choices of presidential aspirants [PDP,APC,et al] available to me in Nigeria today, I stand with Atiku and will vote the Atiku/Obi ticket in 2019.
Peter Obi’s resume is towering and second to none in Nigerian political arena, perhapsonly to be compared (in terms of academic/educational qualifications) to late VP Alex Ekwueme's. But, unlike Ekwueme,Peter, in addition, has a certificate and the universal endorsement of excellency in performance, personality, conduct and character as a 2 terms(8 years)Executive Governor of a Nigerian state, Anambra! His life style in and out of power has been consistent and in sync with his religious belief, political ethics, marital status, parenting, business ethics, public and private living . He is a good role model.
Peter Obi is a value added and an asset to the ticket. His CV is public knowledge and verifiable. I have met him severally in different occasions and fora. But my first meeting with him was in the home of my dear friend, Chief Vincent Mgbemena, when the latter hosted the former at his residence . And this was before Peter reclaimed his Anambra Governorship mandate. I have since then seen and met him in various other circumstances, during and after his governorship. I have not seen any negative change in Peter’s person, personality, conduct, character or “airs” in Peter, before the Governor and Peter, after the Governor.The man is consistent and responsible through and through. Peter’s only flaw as I hear people say, (never had opportunity to confirm or refute) is that he is an “aka gum", "aradite“, "aka ikeudenwa". Let your Ibo friends “kowerntiate” for you. Obi, as the VP and Head of the nation's economic team will ameliorate the greed and excesses of the Nigerian contractors, political class and merchants of and in influence and power. The government of Atiku and Peter Obi will be cheaper, if not the cheapest to Nigerians, from 1999 to date.
The process and the ticket excite me because, if the political will is there, Nigeria can and will be fixed. Meaning that the process and successes of the PDP primary can be replicated in our Nigerian elections. Afterall if “PDP did it why can’t Nigeria did it”. Are they not Nigerians that mid-wifed and delivered the process?
Atiku needs no introduction and his CV is more than impressive. Obj confirmed that out of all the lot, Atiku is, not just only the most qualified, but also the most prepared. ”My former VP has rediscovered and re-positioned himself”.
The Atiku/Obi ticket excites me because the duo brought themselves by themselves to contest. No person(s) went to go and dust them from the shelves of irrelevance, inactivity and dormancy. Atiku bought and paid for his form himself. Both have been visible, active and participating in our national projects and discuses since their respective last assignments to the nation. Besides, both have equally been improving on themselves and credentials ever since.
Personally, it counts for much that Atiku is approachable, compassionate, friendly and pan-Nigerian. His explanations of the differences between Nigeria and Naija speaks volumes of his understanding of the realities and problems of this present Nigeria. Atiku is that ”grandpa in my pocket” who has a very solid and good relationship with his children, grand and even great grand children. Infact, Atiku is “oyiumuakaa”. Atiku is lively, vibrant, energetic and full of vitality. He can and will present himself in debates and campaigns. His speech and language are clear and distinct. And his contributions and reactions to issues are current and contemporary. His tone, attention and facts in his response to I Go Dye’s Instagram article came from the heart of a parent.
I met Atiku once in the house of another friend, Chief Okey Ezeibe. Atiku came with TINUBU to that outing. And they were quite close then. And this is the season of reconciliation, rediscovery,re-positioning and Damascus conversion. 2019 presidential election is for Atiku/Obi to lose. But God will forbid it.
I am an incurable optimist. I believe these past 3 years and until the 4th year are the very worst Nigeria will ever descend to. We have come full circle. "Never again, never again" will things be this bad. And just like 2015, including all the current perm 4 from 5 blocks and other trending permutations, it's equally, any other but Buhari.
Even the most ardent supporters of Buhari (my elder brother, OkaibeyaIgbere, Dairu Abdullahi, jumpout of the box. Oh, they had so much belief in Buhari) are very disappointed. As in 2015, Nigerians voted for "Mr. Clean", but he gave us a government that is dirty and corrupt. So in 2019, we will vote " Mr. Dirt", so that he will give us a government that is clean and incorruptible.
Atiku/Obi ticket is the best of the lot. This ticket gives me hope.
I was born and bred in the old East Central State until 1975. I grew up in Enugu. The Nigeria of my childhood was secure, efficient, fun and full of beautiful and fond memories. I am trapped in the nostalgic memories of Enugu in the 70s-80s. As young as I was I knew that life was safe,rich, meaningful and worthwhile. Human beings mattered and life was sacred and had respect. We went to the library, the Zoo and played outdoors in parks, fields, roads, gutter Uwani. We knew and related with our neighbors. As a child, I never saw any corpse (dead body) on the roads. On our own as children, we could afford to buy Goody-Goody, toffee, hacks, buttermint, butter scotch, Horlicks and other candies, and even comics, like commando, Lance Spear man, Archie, etc, from pennies we got from uncles, aunties and rewards from parents. We looked forward to the celebrations of the children and independence day activities with funfair, match pasts and the eyes right salutes to the national, state and/or local government authorities.The favorite family drink for children was Treetop. This is, more or less, the life style of the typical civil/public servants' homes. They were the middle class. The system existed that ensured they could afford to buy( from their salaries), brand new automobiles. This class drove in Zephar 4, Fiaat, Morris Minor, 403, 404, Opel Kadett/Rekord, Cresceda and others. The upper class drove in Toyota Crown and Citron Palace(this one draws attention to itself during starting and stopping, because of it's "rising and falling". The Land Rover and Range Rover were the jeeps of the time.
Am excited because the Atiku/Obi Government will not only reenact these glories but will improve upon them. I personally see the emergence of a new class system: (1), " About to Have", (2), Middle class and (3), the "Haves" under Atiku/Obi. As against today's "Can't Have, " Don't Have" and "Over Haves".
It's a new day, yes, it is in Nigeria under Atiku/Obi Government. The ticket understands and is committed to restructuring the Nigerian project and institutionalising a working, equitable and professional Nigerian system of governance and economics. This administration will build powerful institutions and not powerful individuals.
The restructuring that is acceptable to all is very practicable and doable and indeed can commence from the blast of the whistle for the incoming Atiku/Obi government in 2019. Am excited about this ticket because they possess the political will and the willingness to push through the constitutional process to create additional state in the Southeast for political and administrative balance, within the live of the new government. Personally, I expect that Atiku/Obi regime will, asap, ensure that all the seaports and airports in the Southeast and South south are effective, functional and operational. Taking urgent steps to clear all encumbrances and impediments for smooth movement of direct international goods, cargoes and passengers into these areas, will not only decongest the over burdened Lagos facilities and roads but will effectively restructure the economy and the ease of doing business in Nigeria. This ticket is committed to and will revive, restore and improve all critical federal government infrastructure in the Southeast, South south and the middle belt regions(federal road networks, NNPC depots, refineries and other federal institutions) for and to the benefit of all.
These are some of my reasons for rejoicing and for hope.
These are the reasons I stand with Atiku/Obi.
These are the reasons I will vote Atiku/Obi ticket in 2019.

We Don’t Have Criminal Case Against Atiku – US

https://www.nairaland.com/4780324/dont-criminal-case-against-atiku

The United States Department of Justice has denied having any record that indicates that Nigeria’s former Vice President, Atiku Abubakar, has a pending lawsuit in the US.

In an email to our correspondent on Friday, a spokesperson for the US DOJ, Peter Carr said, “Thank you for reaching out to us. I have checked the public court records, and they do not show cases filed against a defendant named Atiku Abubakar.”


This was stated as a response to SUNDAY PUNCH’s request for information on whether Abubakar is wanted in the US in connection with any issue of money laundering.

The mail also asked the department to confirm whether Abubakar has been banned from entering the US and if there is any court case against him concerning the Halliburton scandal which resulted in the conviction of a US lawmaker, William Jefferson.

Asked if it is true that the ex-vice president (now a chieftain of the All Progressives Congress) was banned from entering the US, the American official said the issue was confidential.

He said, “Visa issues are confidential under section 222(f) of the Immigration and Nationality Act. If your question is specifically about entry – not about visas per se – I would refer you to the US Customs and Border Protection.”

Last week, Kaduna State Governor, Mallam Nasir el-Rufai, had implied that Abubakar was avoiding a visit to the US because he might be charged with a case of money laundering.

He reacted to Abubakar’s interview which he granted to the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission’s quarterly publication, Zero Tolerance, where he had accused the Kaduna governor of corruption by offering him Transcorp’s shares.

My 2019 Political permutation for PDP.
How PDP can win Buhari in 2019 if Atiku emerges as their consensus flag bearer.

Obviously, the under-listed PDP 2019 Presidential flag jostlers are one way or the other political heavy weights in their various states.

Atiku Abubakar-Adamawa State
BUKOLA SARAKI- Kwara
AMINU TAMBUWAL-Sokoto State
RABIU MUSA KWANKWASO- Kano
SULE LAMIDO-Jigawa State
IBRAHIM DANKWAMBO- Gombe state
KABIRU TURAKI-Kebbi state
AHMED MAKARFI- Kaduna state
DAVID MARK- Benue State

Buhari was like a political messiah in the North before he was finally elected in 2015. His supremacy has since declined now that it's clear to all that he lack the ability to be in charge as a president.

For me Buhari will do well as the head of EFCC, though I still have doubt for him in that capacity because of his selective pattern in fighting corruption. As it stands, it will take another messiah to defeat Buhari in the whole of northern Nigeria.

Back to my political permutation, I took my time to note down the State of each of the above aspirants and my finding is that Atiku is the only one that can stand strong against Buhari.

Close to Atiku in this fight are Kwankwaso and Saraki but they are still upcoming with regards to Nigerian politics.

Kwankwaso has a very huge fan base in Kano for, that is not enough to stand for a election against.

BUKOLA SARAKI: for me Saraki is a very smart guy we all would love to have as a president in the future, but for the fact that he Saraki is not from the core north, he will be easily defeated by Buhari.

2019 election against Buhari is more of a national mission to recue Nigeria from Lifeless Socio-Polical-economic activities that we have been experiencing since 2015. The earlier PDP as a party realises that, the better for us as a nation.

Atiku Abukar is the most experience among them going by his pedigree.
Abubakar worked in the Nigeria Customs Service for twenty years, rising to become the Deputy Director, as the second highest position in the Service was then known. He retired in April 1989 and took up full-time business and politics. He ran for the office of governor in the Gongola State(now Adamawa and Taraba States) in 1991, and for the Presidency in 1993, placing third after MKO Abiola and Babagana Kingibe in the Social Democratic Party (SDP) primaries.
In 1998 he was elected Governor of Adamawa State. While still Governor-Elect he was selected by the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Presidential candidate Olusegun Obasanjo as his running mate.

PDP should learn from their past mistake by trying to be transparent in selecting the best man tomorrow.
To win Buhari in 2019 if Atiku is selected, SARAKI has to deliver Kwara to Atiku, Tambuwal has to deliver Sokoto to Atiku, Kwamkwaso must deliver Kano through his Kwankwasia group, Lamido must deliver Jigawa to Atiku and same is applied to all them. This can only be possible if all of them are ready to accept the winner.

Atiku is 100% vote for Abia, Anambra, Enugu, Imo and Eboyi State. South South is 95% vote for Atiku.

15% vote from west and Atiku is declared The President of Nigeria.

Defeating Buhari in 2019 is a win for good governance.

Smith Obiechina Ibe is with #Atiku

Why will an Electoral Officer allowed to receive a call before declaring the result of the Osun State?

Inec should declare the winner already

Section 179 Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, 1999 (as Amended)

For a candidate to be declared duly elected to the office of Governor of a State in Nigeria he should win a MAJORITY OF THE TOTAL NUMBER OF VALID VOTES CAST and must have scored at least 25% OF THE TOTAL NUMBER OF VALID VOTES CAST IN AT LEAST TWO THIRDS OF THE TOTAL NUMBER OF LOCAL GOVERNMENTS IN THE STATE.

Therefore, once the constitutional requirements are fulfilled it does not matter if the PLURALITY or MAJORITY is a single vote

There would have been a winner and there wouldn't be a need for a re-run. That is the position of the law

I wonder the delay tactics of INEC to declare winner and stop the unjust.

I had a chart with a radio station here in Lagos, I was asked if I believe in feminism and also ask to define it. First, I made them to understand that I believe in feminism of the old and what it stand for.
The lady in charge of the show was curious to know what I meant by feminism of the old. I told her literally, the world feminism are a group of women who fight against bad system in our society for equal existence of all human not just women.

Secondly, I defined modern feminism as a group of women who have channeled their grievances from the bad system to men.
The reality is that both men and women are cohabitants of this bad system, as such both are affected.

Modern day feminist care more for the girl child, while the boy child is left to his fate.

I reminded her about the Aba women riot of 1929. That movement is what feminism stands for, not the show of I'm a man that we witness today in Nigeria. Those women were so brave to challenge the bad system when their men were so scared to speak.

I was going through some reports of men who were raped and defiled while growing up.
I was shock to read that some mothers raped their male children, aunties abused male child under their cares, ladies gang rape guys and so many atrocities against men. No one talks or defend them because they are seen as superhuman.
Today's feminists are fighting the wrong enemy! We men should be in partnership in fighting the bad system not the other way round.

Recently, a man resigned his appointment because he stopped his boss from hitting a female colleague.

According to my understanding, feminism shouldn't be a fight against men like the way they go about it today.

Feminism is a fight for equal existence of humanity.

According to Smith Obiechina Ibe, you can't be a feminist and treat people bad!
You can't be a feminist and you treat your house help badly.

Feminism is not about dressing in men's clothes and refer yourself as king.

Feminism is not about saying that God is a woman.

Feminism is not about challenging the bible.

Feminism is not about robbing shoulder with men

Feminism is equal right for men and women.

The pics below are some women WO participated in Aba women riot. For me they are the real feminist.

RONALDINHO is to marry TWO women at the same time, according to reports.

The Brazilian ace could tie the knot in August with his two 'fiancees' Priscilla Coelho and Beatriz Souza.

The two women are said to have been living 'harmoniously' with the former Barcelona star since December at his £5million Rio de Janeiro mansion.

Ronaldinho, who is claimed to be “adept at polygamy”, started dating Beatriz in 2016 but continued his relationship with Priscilla, which began several years earlier.

The women reportedly receive an “allowance” of around £1,500 from the footballer to spend as they wish.

And it is claimed he always gives the two the exact same presents, including recently buying them matching perfume during a trip abroad together.

Former World Player of the Year Ronaldinho asked both for their hand in marriage in January last year and gave them both engagement rings, according to Brazilian columnist Leo Dias.

He will marry the two women at a private ceremony inside the Santa Monica condominium, in the upmarket Barra da Tijuca district in Rio, where he has lived since 2015, according to a columnist from Brazil’s O Dia newspaper.

Nigeria’s biggest pastor, David Oyedepo, the owner of Winners Chapel, also known as Living Faith Church World Wide, the richest pastor in the country, with a net worth of over 150 million dollars is believed to have constructed the entire Covenant University campus based on occult, masonic symbols.

The symbols were captured by bloggers via internet Google-earth satellite imagery of his establishment
Isis Egyptian goddess symbols, 66, star of David, $ symbol, Baphomet ram god, and more symbols can be observed by simply googling ‘Covenant University,’ and clicking on and expanding the Google map.

Covenant University is located in Canaan land in Ota, Ogun State in Nigeria and is a Private owned Christian University. According to Wikipedia, it is a member of the Association of Commonwealth Universities. The University describes itself as an institution that makes new leaders.

The University also partners with USAID (United States Agency for International Development).

David Oyedepo studied in the United States during his younger days. He got a Ph.D from the Honolulu University, Hawaii in Human Development. It is common place for “Illuminati” agents in Africa to have passed through college in the United States, during which time it is proposed that they got indoctrinated.

In December 2012, the University was in the news for reportedly expelling 200 students for not attending Church service.

Bishop Oyedepo has also been in the news for his quality lifestyle, owning private jets, “Dominion Air,” and got into many Nigerian blogs’ hall of fame, for openly slapping a lady in Church.

Millions of Nigerians attend Bishop Oyedepo’s Mega Church services and of course, pay tithes generously while there.
