Standard societies are not built by mediocre leaderships. They're built by strong willed and intelligent leaders who are ready to make sacrifices for the best interest of their people.That is what I believe Mr Peter Obi represents. The only ex Governor who refused to collect the bogus pension allowance for ex Governors till date. Even Pa Buhari,Pa Tinubu and Pa ATIKU won't agree less. We all just have to believe as Nigerians!.
Many don't even believe that the country deserves far better. They have this born-to-suffer mentality. They'll even feel uncomfortable if they woke up to see Nigeria like Dubai or other beautiful countries.
Final legal embezzlement , 550billion naira , Oga wike remember to open road for that knew airport road , to decongest the already polluted areas , thankiuoo
In a country where the predominate religions are "Islam and Christianity". This time more than ever, in our nations history, we need a leader that will unify our country. 2023, we need a leader that will involve all the 6 geo-political zones, in the system of governance actively.
shemauaminuharu: The Publicity Secretary of the All Progressives Congress in Rivers State, Darlington Nwauju, shares his thoughts with DENNIS NAKU on the nullification of the party’s primaries in the state among and other issues
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WQ0yUy5hLDk How prepared is the Rivers All Progressives Congress for the 2023 general elections and does the party have what it takes to win?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dHBTd9K5kow Let me without equivocation tell you that the APC in Rivers State is working very hard across the 319 polling wards in the state. We are working hard to win. We are not contesting the 2023 elections for the sake of participating in the polls. We are working hard to take the trophy and by the special grace of God, we will. The past seven years of the outgoing administration has convinced the people of Rivers State that the Peoples Democratic Party has nothing more to offer other than the daily soap operas that we have been treated to. In our beloved Rivers State, non-accountability has become the order of the day; contracts are awarded impulsively so much so that humongous projects are awarded without recourse to the Procurement Act or due process; in the past seven years, unemployment level in the state has been rising and this has earned us the second on the unemployment index published by the National Bureau of Statistics.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zwt8NCMHmiA In Rivers State today, promises were made of employment of whether 10,000 or 5,000 people, but mysteriously, less than four months to the next elections, the state government flies a purely political kite by purporting to appoint 200,000 special assistants in order to hoodwink Rivers people and buy their votes. Seriously, The Rivers APC has been armed with more than enough campaign materials. I say to you again, we are contesting to win.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cdmCcNc4DG0 With due respect to the judgment of Justice Emmanuel Obile’s court, our party cannot be stopped from contesting and winning the 2023 elections in Rivers State. All attempts at stopping all other political parties except the PDP are geared towards having an open goalpost to score against the run of play, and these shall fall flat. A popular government or political party will not resort to deploying state resources to stop other parties from contesting against her. Why are they afraid of a contest? But to answer your question directly, the cases brought against the Rivers State APC were matters pertaining to our (APC) internal affairs and the Supreme Court had in March 2021 in a case between Dele Moses, four others and the APC declared that political parties were like clubs and that no court had the jurisdiction to protect the rights and privileges of members of a club.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QNGBN8n9u2A So, the APC in Rivers State is not afraid of the courts as we have implicit faith and belief in the judiciary in Nigeria not to yield itself to the shenanigans of lazy politicians to deny Rivers people the opportunity for a genuine alternative. We believe that even though our matters get to the Supreme Court, Nigerians shall see that with a dispassionate consideration of our matters, justice shall come to us because we know that those who took us to court do not have their names in the membership register of our great party. Justice shall surely come because the civil servants in Rivers State deserve to be motivated with promotions. Pensioners deserve to be paid, scholarships have to be reintroduced and permanent solutions must be found to the perennial flooding challenge in the Orashi region.
Again, security must be ensured for business owners and more investments need to be attracted to the state to increase our internally generated revenue; and primary health centres must be resuscitated across the 23 local government areas. I can go on and on. A cosmopolitan state like Rivers deserves better and cannot continue to be held down by the intimidation and exclusivity that we see today in the governance of our state.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mh1R4qM9U8U The leader of our party in Rivers State is a dedicated party man and shall attend party functions as occasions and time demand. You must know he is never afraid to lead from the front.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FSm92sIXT-M This is a funny question because when he talks, people say he should have kept quiet and when he chooses to stay calm, people keep asking this question you just asked. Our leader is a man of great wisdom; he will talk when necessary and you will hear him.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4YWXjp6qi-U The state governor recently increased the number of his special advisers from 100,000 to 200,000. What is your reaction to that?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wMvuV-1PVhI On the appointment of 200,000 special advisers by the state governor and his PDP administration, let me say that it is purely a political move to buy votes ahead of the elections, four months to the 2023 general elections. Are you aware that appointment to the office of a special assistant require that such a fellow should have to make public his/her assets through the Code of Conduct Bureau? Have you heard of any of these persons approaching the CCB office in Port Harcourt? Again, these appointments are reserved just for members of the PDP. Like I have said before, it is purely targeted at vote-buying, ballot snatching and intimidation of political opponents at the polling units. The list of SAs is peopled by known roughnecks and certified cultists. The question we want to ask the outgoing governor and his court jesters is how sustainable these appointments are.
Just like people that are criticizing Destiny Etiko that she wears Aba made clothes whereas she has some many investments, what you have passion on is not what I have passion on too.
Mainly one that has to do with politics here in our country.
To me I believe with all seen, Sir Obi we don't need much talk. We need Actions and proves if elected come 2023. Keep the plans intact, we got ur back!.
A staunch Chelsea fan from Nigeria, Damilare Oluwasegun, popularly known as 'Asiri Comedy', has stormed Stamford Bridge to pray for Chelsea Football Club
Asiri, who is holidaying in the UK, took time out to visit the home ground of the Blues as he had a tour of the entire facility.
He has been a fan of the London club for several years and has been boastful about the club's achievements in the last two decades.
Having won the coveted Champions League twice, Chelsea, currently in the competition's knockout phase, face Borussia Dortmund when the tournament resumes next year.
The Nigerian comedian was seen at several sections of Stamford Bridge as he could be heard praying for the team to be successful. He shared a clip of the 'exercise' on his social media handles with the caption:
"I went to Stamford Bridge, and I did it the CAC way." "I had to do this for Chelsea fans home and abroad. I went to sanctify our stadium today at Stamford Bridge. No more loss. No more defeat. Chelsea fans say Amen."
The presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Atiku Abubakar has reiterated his position to privatise several capital projects in a bid to take the financial burden off the Federal Government.
Atiku said this on Wednesday during a meeting with the Nigerian Guild of Editors in Lagos State.
“If you see the amount of work the government has to do in this country, like building and rebuilding our ports, constructing our railway lines, building our highways – let me borrow Dokpesi’s word – it is a ‘humongous’ amount of money that you require. You know that the government doesn’t have it,” he said.
“I would rather concession most of this to the private sector and give them tax breaks. They invest, recover their money and we will have development, progress, jobs, and prosperity.”
Speaking on his 2023 manifesto, the PDP candidate said one way he could unify the country was by giving every part a sense of belonging, which according to him is lacking in the present administration.
“The unity of our country has been threatened. Number one, we need to restore the unity of our country and give each and every part of this country a sense of belonging in our federation.
“From unity, I moved to the issue of insecurity. We need to secure our country first. There is no geopolitical zone in this country that has no security or insecurity challenge.
“Thirdly, I moved to the issue of the economy. It’s only when you have a united country when you have peace that you begin to think about the economy and the economy is such a vast area – youth unemployment, inflation, so many things under the economy,” he said.
