Guy I wonder.
Nothing about that tape suggests rigging.

Did you read anything about rigging in the topic.

The tape is all about denial and acceptance/confession of participation in the leaked tape.

The man earlier denied the tape now he has own up to participating in it.

OREMUSSANCTUS:
Soon dey will apologize to omisore just like the guardians apc deceiving naija kids shouting change since 1960

Sahara reporters are not Guardian newspaper they don't apologise cos they don't make mistakes cos they don't cook up propaganda.

Has your bias blinded you from seeing the video or was he under pressure to say what he said in that video.

Oh! I get it the clueless government has impoverish you not to have enough MB to see the video content, yet you're still rooting for the poverty government.

Lalasticlala, seun, mods abeg let the people learn the truth.

BY SAHARAREPORTERS, NEW YORKFEB 23, 2015

In a one-on-one interview with Nigerian citizen journalist Kayode Ogundamisi at the Kotoka International Airport in Accra, Ghana, Senator Iyiola Omisore of Osun state has admitted that a tape released by SaharaReporters detailing how some politicians met with a Nigerian army general  to plot the rigging of last year’s gubernatorial election in Ekiti was real and authentic.


VIDEO: #EkitiGate Secret Tape! All I said was 'Calm Down! Calm Down' Senator Iyiola Omisore
Senator Iyiola Omisore confesses: "I was At the meeting, All I told them is calm down, calm down"...
Cornered by the interviewer Mr. Omisore admitted that Governor Ayo Fayose, Minister of Police Affairs, Jelili Adesiyan, Musiliu Obanikoro (then minister of state for defense) met with Brigadier General Aliyu Momoh to work out a modality to stop the momentum of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the election which the APC subsequently lost. However, Mr. Omisore claimed that all he said on the tape was “Calm Down, All Down”, apparently referring to the point at which he intervened when Gov Fayose and others began bullying Brig. General Momoh. Omisore's assertion is, however, untrue according to the 37-minute tape. In another instance during the meeting, Omisore asked the army  general why he had not arrested the campaign director of Fayose's opponent, Bimbo Daramola.
 
Omisore is the latest person amongst the dramatist personae involved in the rigging plot to confess to the authenticity of the tape. Earlier, the minister for police affairs, Jelili Adesiyan owned to up to the content of the tape and his involvement by declaring that he was at the meeting, also the beneficiary of the rigging Ayodele Fayose, who earlier claimed the tape was made with a voice software recently recanted and confessed to his participation in the plot. 

However, Senator Obanikoro, who was recently renominated as the Minister of state for Defense has embarked on a series of attempts to silence SaharaReporters and other journalists reporting the electoral fraud by threatening to sue the journalists in Nigeria and New York state. Obanikoro’s nomination awaits confirmation by the Nigerian Senate. Opposition APC party Senators have vowed to oppose his nomination, but observers believe that the corrupt members of the Nigerian Senate would likely confim his appointment after receiving a bribe.

Contrary to earlier denials, embattled ministerial nominee, Musiliu Obanikoro, has confessed to several Senators in Abuja that he did participate in an election-eve meeting in Ekiti in June 2014 in which a group of politicians and government ministers met with a Nigerian army general to rig the governorship election in favor of Ayodele Fayose, the candidate of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP).

The meeting, which is now known as “Ekitigate”, was secretly taped by an army captain who was subsequently forced to flee for his life.

Despite the scandal, President Jonathan went ahead to nominate Obanikoro into his cabinet for the second time, and the nominee is lobbying the Senators to give him a pass during his upcoming nomination hearing.  It is in the process that he has confessed to some of them that he was indeed present at the rigging meeting in Akure, on behalf of the President, to ensure that everything went smoothly.

Obanikoro’s story is that he was simply making “peace” between the army and Ayo Fayose at the meeting, claiming that he was not party to any conversation about rigging.  On the contrary, Obanikoro, who was at the time junior Minister for Defence, is overheard clearly on the tape bragging about the authority granted him by President Jonathan.

Prior to admitting his involvement to the Senators, the former minister met with President Jonathan to discuss the tape and his role. A presidency source said Obanikoro told President Jonathan he was present at the meeting but that a part of the audio-recording was “doctored”. 

They said President Jonathan had called him to the meeting to discuss how to mitigate the damage created by the leaked tape.  He told the Senators categorically that it was Jonathan himself who had sent him to Ekiti to help Fayose win the election.  On the tape, Obanikoro says, at least twice, that he is on a “mission” for the President. 

He also reportedly told President Jonathan at their meeting that he had asked his US-based lawyers to do a separate voice analysis of the tape and that the lawyers came back with “proof” that certain aspects of the tape had been doctored by SaharaReporters to make the regime look bad.  Counting on that assurance, President Jonathan told a team of reporters from the Wall Street Journal during an interview that the tapes were not real and that he would not investigate the incident.

Obanikoro also told President Jonathan that his US-based lawyers had assured him that they could file some cases against SaharaReporters in the US to “teach SaharaReporters and its publisher, Omoyele Sowore” a lesson. He explained to the president that with enough financial support, his lawyers would file the case and also employ private detectives to take down SaharaReporters. President Jonathan reportedly nodded at the idea, and asked Obanikoro not to worry.

Following that meeting, the former Minister began a series of legal threats last week claiming to have sued SaharaReporters, as well as The Punch newspaper and Premium Times, both in Lagos.  Up until now, those newspapers are yet to be served copies of the lawsuit.

On Tuesday night, Obanikoro, who is also a US citizen, assured some of the Senators that his US lawyers had already filed the libel suit against SaharaReporters in New York.

On Wednesday, Obanikoro deployed a small rented a crowd of protesters to hold placards in front of the National Assembly to denounce the All Progressives Congress.

It is to be noted that two other key participants at the meeting, Police Minister Jelili Adesiyan and Ayo Fayose, the beneficiary of the Ekiti governorship rigging, have admitted that they were at the meeting that was taped by the army captain.

For Obanikoro’s role in the rigging of the election, APC has advocated his being banned from holding any public office, and asked the Senate not to confirm him.  Mr. Jonathan is known to have re-nominated Obanikoro as his prize for stepping down from the PDP governorship race in Lagos.

The only thing I understands from the write-up is that Buhari is a suspect.

Someone that cannot be trusted... in fact, a Buhari that have a terroristic baggage he is trying to hide from the world.

What I see and read clearly in the write-up is that all you said above about GMB is part of the numerous propaganda of the ruling party PDP to make GMB appear as the devil that GEJ represent. Little wonder GEJ is surrounded by witches, wizards and saTANists like you.

Propaganda we all know are bunch of lies made-up to be believed as the gospel truth. Everyone (even the west) knows its the stock in trade of the ruling party PDP and its saTANist supporters.

The west is not so dumb so they're willing to hear the Generals view objectively.

Seun:
What does this incident have to do with Patience Jonathan? Please explain it for the benefit of people like me who are not so clever.

Thank you Mr. Seun, you just proved to us how cleverly selective a PDP/GEJ can be when remembering past events.

You don't need any explanation cos its clear you were being clever in your approach but I will leave you with a Yoruba proverb that says "Aje ke lana, omo ku loni. Tani ko mo wipe aje ana ni o pa omo je". In this case, the witch has been shouting since last year.

So if you claim not to be clever enough to see this I will say BULL SHIT to that cos its clear you're being cleverly selective.

blueto:
when will you have sence?
an innocent girl is missing, instead of u showing remourse, you are thinking of how to insult the president. was he responsible for this shamful act? i ask you

I would blame the president.

When the head with all the security details at his disposal refused to bring back over 200 girls from a known person (shekau) at a known location (Sambisa) then how do you expect the police to be motivated enough to go after a single girl kidnapped by an unknown person to an unknown location.

With which courage do you expect him to make directives to the Nigerian police to find the girl.

owobokiri:
How can it reduce election malpractices when PVCs are being collected by 4 year olds, when millions from mainly PDP strongholds haven't seen their PVCs while INECs APC donated reading computers are ready to do mago mago with numbers??! To you it must be free and fair when rigging is perpetuated against the ruling party.

rabimlomo:
I am absolutely with you on using the national Id for the election, not that I believe all those accusations against jega are true however. But I have always fail to see the need for the pvcs when we have the national id card. I believe it is just a waste of money.

onatisi:
best sane advice . I think this is the best piece of advice for inec but as it stands now it maybe too late to change .the national Identity card should be used as a verification tool for the pvc card holders. The pvc idea is good but it isn't something that can be rushed into .

This is exactly what and where PDP wants some gullible Nigerians to be.

Paint the umpire bad to the extent of forcing the umpire to resign or people call for the resignation of the umpire but if the umpire and the people refuse to be swayed, they discredit whatever outcome of the election.

Has anyone ever really asked why the PDP led administration in all their propaganda against APC, GMB and now INEC boss never produced a single PROOF. Everything is just baseless accusations.

Asked to proof the allegation of meeting with the APC leaders and that the PVCs are not in the country he instead countered with another question.

All this propaganda can only deceive the unintelligent few.

"You can only fool some people some times but cannot fool all people all the time"

egift:
Bros the tape is real. All they have to do is hold on, Koro will be dragged through the mud. Even those who are yet to see it will do now.

The most interesting would be the case lodged in New York.

But the Lagos own is as good as being won by the thug cos I don't think digital recording is now admissible as evidence in Nigerian courts even if it is, we don't have forensice experts that can analyse the recording without being compromised. Also the major player in this case Sgt. Sagir Koli won't be on ground as a witness cos he has being forced out of the country through treat.

I won't be surprised if the thug later withdraws the one in New York.

siraj1402:
It will be very much bias judging Buhari military regime as inhuman, can anyone tell me which of military regime is not characterized by its peculiar behavior? Checking all the military that has ruled us in this country,one will surely find one or two things that is inhuman. No one expect him to be taking laws into his hands should he emerged as the winner.All we are saying is enough of this corruption that will not allow us to grow in all sector.Enough of this insecurity.The souls of innocent lost during Jonathan administration alone is more than souls lost during Nigeria civil war.
God bless Nigeria and Nigerians.

Their's an aura of bias against buhari in her write up.

She was very clear and expressive when mentioning the vices of the General but was quite clever when it comes to GEJ, choosing to use peoples perspective to describe GEJ's personal floors.

Also noticed she dedicated almost 3 paragraphs to the negatives of the GMB's Military administration and systematically stating the negatives but she was quick to mask GEJ's flip side with the conspiracy theory of his perceived "enemies at work".

Overall the lady was able to systematically and cleverly tell us that though she's frustrated with the GEJ's administration, she doesn't like GMB.

Bayswater:
Which is more important right now? Elections that can be postponed or crushing Boko haram?

We have a lot of senseless journalists and writers in Nigeria right now.

It is obvious the writer is a paid APC hack. Idiota!

Ode somebody.

Election is for the continued existence of any nation. It is for continuity. Iraq, Pakistan Afghanistan all did election in the midst of far deadly terrorist orgs.

ItsAnderson:
Good evening my lovely pals, pls I need your candid
advice, me & my finance are presently courting, also
getting ready to be together and I notice dis attitude of
staring at a man's biceps or chest whenever we are together. The
one that got me annoyed most was on Friday when
am together with her and her friend watching a movie,
suddenly they showed Iyanya Mr Oreo video and she quickly shouted “ah dis is big chest and sexy six packs o" I felt ashamed cuz I have flat chest
and not quite long I left d parlour to the room
thinking. Pls pals wht will be ur advice to me on dis
issue because am afraid of going into dis marriage wit
her cos of dis attitude. Thanks.

We men can bottle our jealousy than girls, reciprocate her gesture by also staring and commenting about women body.

But that's only after letting her know how you feel about her actions and rebuke her. If she refuses to stop, let her know she's not the only one that has the monopoly of looking at six packs that you too can be looking at 2packs and the other packages of women.

I bet you, if she cherish your relationship she will stop.

Specialist900:
an economist brought it up while a corruption expert (as he claims to be) looks at the possibility of such funds getting missing.

Your comment justify my claim to leave the economy to the economist.

First let me ask. Have you read the soludo's article?

If you've read it then you'll know that this is not a case of corruption but a clear case of competency. Soludo never accused NOI of being corrupt but for being the finance minister in a leaking and corrupt govt without being able to do anything to prevent it. This is a case of competency not corruption.

According to Ribadu argument it's lik saying "I squandered 50mil naira when I haven't earned/saved 100 thousand in the time frame"

Secondly what is this trash I hear/read people writing that Nigeria has not earned up to N30tr? In four years?

Are you people for real?
Are you really using our budget as a yard stick?

Ok! Assuming you want to use federal budget. let me ask this question.

Have you factored in the monthly statutory allocation to all 36 states in five years?

Check this out.
http://www.frontiersnews.com/index.php/business/37-business/2696-federation-account-2012-the-richest-and-poorest-state-beneficiaries-in-nigeria

What you have there is only one year. Now multiply the total by 5years.

What soludo is even talking about does not have anything to do with the budget. Instead they are money that refused to enter the federation account under the watchful act of NOI.

Check this senario:

You have a firm that is into diff sectors Agric, services, banking.
Your income is like this:
Agric. N2m
Services. N4m
Banking. N6m
Total. N12m

Statutory deductions:
4 wifes collected. N400k each = N1.6m
(Oil producing states)
32 children collected N200k each=N6.4m
(Other states)
Remaining (for federal govt to budget on) =N4m
Total. N12m

Assuming that an expert in the type of firm you own now told you that instead of the figures you have above, you were supposed to have something like this.

Your income is supposed to be like this:
Agric. N12m
Services. N6m
Banking. N8m
Total. N26m

That villagers has been stealing your farm produce to the tune of N10m (oil bunkering)
That your clients has been short paying you to the tune of N2m (tax, import duties etc)
That your bankers has been short changing you in your transactions.

All this under the watchful eyes of your manager.

Specialist900:
30 trillion no be 1billion o. I think I can believe Ribadu

When a boko haram and a militant are arguing about war strategies and a civil defence comes up to say i have an idea. You should be careful about the idea.

Soludo and okonjo are renowned economists while ribadu is a lawyer.
so who invited him into the fold?

No wonder he came into the debate & started defending someone dat was not accused.

Soludo never accused okonjo of stealing anything. He only pointed dat shes weak in managing d economy by not monitoring d countrys finance well.

If you're a night guard in charge of a wharehouse and someone says some goods were missing under your watch. It doesnt mean u stole d good but dat u werent doing ur job properly (you are weak).

Also to tink of it lamido initially alleged $50b was missing frm NNPC alone in 5yrs dats about N8tr. Now tink of other sectors like agric, ports, oil bunkering.

I think i will go with an econimist not not a lawyer.

is there for u to see. His university confirmed that didn't they?

Am not disputing him having it am only asking that in which field did he collect his Phd?

Security/Warfare or Zoology?

Because you're here (just like Sambo) defending his Security/warfare decisions with his Phd in Zoology.

What is the correlation?

Aside that he doesn't act like someone that has any Wisdom/Phd.

hyfr:
I would've referred you to wikipedia but I guess there's no much internet coverage around sambisa. Ph.d. Is an acronym which stands for doctor of philosophy. Philosophy is a greek word that means for the Love Of Wisdom. Can't really go into details of it,go meet a ph.d holder to throw more light

So GEJ collected his own Phd/Wisdom in warfare/security or Phd/wisdom in animals/Zoology?

I doubt he has any Phd/wisdom at all.

CeejayCharles:
This Gbenga is so dumb. When you are hacking a system like an online poll, the software itself doing it is not intelligent so it generates random ips without validating them and can proceed to generate even stuff that do nit exist.

He just showed the entire world how stupid he is...

@bolded random not sequentially as seen in the CSV file.

Bros you're wrong. Even a hacking tool knows that IP addresses cannot be more than eight binary digits in four places. Its a language and once you go beyond it, it becomes invalid. Any number to be generated by an hacking tool has to be within the range of 0.0.0.0 and 255.255.255.255. Their are over 4billion addresses there. So why go beyond.

Apart from that 82.145.210.0 - 82.145.210.255 all belongs to operamini.

Except you or AIT/PDP/GEJ/saTANists want to tell Nigerians that APC/GMB has gone to give Operamini money for them to use their IP.

If not, Mr man go and sit down somewhere you've just being bursted. Anything else you say can, might and will be used against you on NL. You have the right to an attorney. If you can't afford one GEJ/PDP/AIT/saTANists will provide you one.

agabaI23:
Abeg sis talk more. I can argue this IT stuff but the one I know is that I use foreign ISP and I have seen 82.... as my IP address. That was the first hole I picked a layman like me.

Yes you can have an IP of 82. In Nigeria but it will still be domiciled in europe. My OperaMini is on 82. and the location is Iceland. If you probably check others using operamini you will probably get something like that. If you decide to check the location of those IP addresses you'll find out most of it belongs to operamini and would located somewhere in europe.

Try and type your full IP address in google and send it will give you the location which will most likely be located in europe.

Here's mine attached.

Rexyl:
It's like you are saying those politicians you are worshipping are not more corrupt than Akala. They are all wicked, the only difference is some are stylish in their wickedness and corruption. Don't let hatred blind your sense of reasoning.

My sense of reasoning is intact. As a matter of fact I don't like the present governor but if you are presented with 2 evils you have to chose the lesser one.

All politicians are the same but they are still better than each other.

Oyo State...

Lazy, Dirty, Poor and Hungry set of people who are hoping that Buhari will help them by siphoning Oil money from the Niger Delta.

All dem know, na to born pikin everywhere without any plans of how to raise or give them a good life.

See all the dirty zinc roofs on all their houses.

Tribalists who will never ever vote for anybody who is not Yoruba or Muslim.

Why waste money building federal infrastructure for these eternal ingrates.

Nigeria really needs to go back to regional government so that these leeches will learn to sit up and work hard in stead of always waiting for

free monthly allocation of Niger Delta oil money.

As at the time those houses were being built your ancestors were still in the jungle killing twins. That time your fathers and G. Fathers were still fishing. It was part of our cocoa money that was used to discover oil for you inglorious bastards.

Ibadan was built with cocoa money and not your blood oil money.

Akala was a xtian gov, but like all PDPs and GEJ he was clueless, corrupt, violent and wicked.
