Wow, guess there is no stopping to this, Nigeria still have a long way to go, I don't see the reality on ground getting better when we have people like this who do not believe in constructive criticism or appraisal rather employ cunning, slanderous, destructive cristism and anti social measures to pass their points across.

Penguin2:
Yea!

Like you did in Osun where Tinubu cousin was disgraced out of office and Tinubu had to run back to Abuja in shame?

Or like you did in Edo where Ize-Iyamu was disgraced after Tinubu released a video supporting him while proclaiming himself as the father of democracy?

Or like you did in Anambra after APC bought all available stakeholders in Anambra and still came third?

Obi is your next president.

Nahunger:
Greetings from this part of the world.

I understand, Nigerians want good government and elections have been here since 1960 till date.

I am very disturbed with the current trends going on in the politics section of Nairaland, I am not a member of any political party.

I am only concerned as to why most of the comments are full of hate and violence induced, Tinubu, Atiku and Obi are humans.

Each time I open a post to read about Tinubu or Obi the comments are always full of hate, fire and brimstone and curses.

We suffered together for so long and we all want a better Nigeria why allow yourself to be so divided along so many lines for peanuts...

Is this the Nigeria you want to build for your children and generations yet unborn?

This people you are fighting dirty for all have investment and citizenship in foreign countries, you and I have no other place or country to call ours, let's not destroy our home trying to appease your pay masters.....

I wish Hungerbad was here, may his should RIP

The Supreme Court has ruled severally that Ward delegates elections, primaries and nomination of Candidates for elections are exclusive responsibilities of the NWC/NEC of the Political Party.

The State Working Committee (SWC) has absolutely no business with any.
See Supreme Court decisions in Ufomba v INEC, Emenike v PDP, APC & Or V Kabiru Gaya & 179 Ors.

Background of the Case:
1. Election was conducted into the SWC of the Party in October 2021.

2. Silas Onu contested and lost the Ebonyi State PDP Chairmanship seat against Tochukwu Okorie.

3. Onu approached the FHC that Okorie purchased his form after the closing date.

4. In April, the FHC ruled that Onu was Chairman and disqualified Okorie.

5. PDP NWC obeyed the Court order and recognised Onu whilst Okorie appealed the decision.

6. Ward delegates were concluded and they voted in the Presidential Primaries.

7. PDP set May 28 & 29 for National Assembly & Governorship Primaries.

8. On May 23, Appeal Court ruled on status quo ante bellum i.e. restating Okorie as Ebonyi PDP Chairman on the interim.

9. Okorie insisted that there will be another Ward Delegates election. Again, PDP informed INEC of the reinstatement of Okorie on May 31.

10. On the 28th, National Assembly Primaries held and a Governorship Primaries held on the 29th whilst Primary was ongoing with INEC officials and results about to be announced, PDP called INEC to stop the Primaries.

11. Results were released and PDP decided to conduct another Primary on 4th & 5th.

12. The winners approached the Court to affirm their election, without members of the other faction as Parties to the suit. When they applied for joinder, the Judge refused.

13. The new Primaries of June 4 & 5 held, those who won in May boycotted the Primaries since the case was still in Court.

14. On June 7, Court affirmed the Primaries of May.

15. Ogba and the others who held their Primaries in June approached the Appeal Court with a Notice of Appeal.

16. The Appeal Court set aside the judgement of the FHC and ordered a retrial.

17. After the retrial with Ogba & co, the FHC still insisted on its initial judgement, upholding the May primaries and nullifying that of June.

18. Ogba appeals the judgement, and the Appeal Court ruled in July that it is the Party who determines the Candidate to fly its flag.

19. PDP submits to INEC the names of those who participated in the June Primaries.

20. Those who won the May primaries approach the Supreme Court.

21. Supreme Court rules in their favour. The Supreme Court insisted that when you want to appeal a case in which you were not a Party at the lower Court, you must first obtain the leave of Court to Appeal i.e. to be joined in the suit.

Failure to obtain leave of Court before appealing as a non-party having an interest in the matter renders the appeal incompetent. That means anything that happened after 15 above was inconsequential.

22. in August, the Appeal Court restored Okorie as substantive Chairman of Ebonyi PDP.

23. This is today's ruling:
The judgment followed a suit marked FHC/ABJ/CS/1319/2021, filed by Mr. Okoroafor Tochukwu Okorie against the PDP and INEC.
Justice Nyako agreed with counsel to the plaintiff, Okoro Mkemakolam that the cancelled PDP primary in Ebonyi state was conducted in flagrant disobedience of the order of the Court of Appeal, staying the execution of the judgment of the Federal High Court sitting in Abuja, declaring Joseph Onu as the Ebonyi State Chairman of the party.

Okorie is trying to invite the Courts into the leadership contest of the Party and the Court should not have granted their wish.

-SWC do not conduct elections or Primaries.

-The suit is between Tochukwu Okorie v PDP & INEC. Okorie is not an Aspirant and hence has no locus to challenge Primaries of the Party.

- He also did not file the suit within 14 days after the cause of action.

that word gives URCHINS but international and local urchins headache.

Bonavi:
If he performed creditably why then is he running away from life events and interviews from the local scenes. The man is simply gone and anybody trying to patch him up for some faceless individual led by the jihadist Shettima to take over power is hallucinating

OnionBandit:


Soludo will always be remembered for exposing the fraud in Obi

OnionBandit:
Can any of his supporters explain these wrinkles holding rally on his throat?

Some even go to the extent of calling him youth president. If this old fraud in the attachment below is a youth, then it is finished!

appishani1:
I can speak hausa fluently and I can tell you BBC HAUSA is one of our biggest problem in this nation.

twilliamx:
Very very naive

DavidEsq:
Very naive fool. If we all understand what manipulations mean to that man up there, we would know that it simply means anything that doesn't go his way.

Bluntguy:
E sure me now say Buhari hate Tinubu.
Congratulations in advance to president Peter Obi.

garfield1:
No,I was afraid tinubu might lose katsina based on the numerous defections there.but with the way the northerners ate carrying his matter,massively campaigning for him,it is too much

garfield1:
Cc penguin2, kyase,aiel... Penguin2, tinubu is popular up north

Majesty2:
Haters can go and end their miserable lives, Asiwaju of Naija is unstoppable

garfield1:
Buhari recorded an average of 15 million votes between 2015 and 2019 while pdp recorded an average of 11.5 million in the same period.half of those buhari votes are from his northern fanatics who won't vote tinubu and may not scatter their votes between tinubu,atiku and kwankwaso.it means tinubu has about 7.5 million available votes in default and if those buharists share votes equally,tinubu will inherit a further 2.5 million which is one third of buhari votes.with tinubu being the only Yoruba on the ballot,his votes will slightly increase by a million meaning tinubu should score at least 11 mil.


Out of the 11.5 million atiku polled in 2019,6 million were from the south and they are almost gone with obi or tinubu.half of his northern Christian votes are gone which means he has 5 mil votes standing.a quarter of buharists voting him will push him to 7.5 million plus 1 mil new voters up north which puts his total at 8.5 mil.


Obi has 6 million out of the 11 million votes atiku had.out of the 9.5 million new voters,5 million should vote and 60% will go to obi which is about 3mil. plus 1 million new voters from ss/se/nc totalling 10 mil votes for obi.


With one million new pvc card holders voting tinubu,atiku and 500k voting kwankwaso,tinubu will now have 12 million,obi 10 mil and atiku 8.5 million.

SadiqBabaSani:
Festus Keyamo hates Tinubu and is doing everything to embarrass the man.


I don't support Tinubu but it is morality bad for somebody to claim he is working for Tinubu and each time he just does things to decrease the persons acceptability.

Apc should look into this seriously.

I am obidient though

“It’s so appalling that the budget we did, every member that goes there, a certain amount should be given to them, at least N5,000 as a token. He said no, N1,000 will be given. I said that is ridiculous. I, as a chairman of the party can not be in that position and be giving N1,000 to every member who left their home to Ibadan, and he said it’s for feeding.”

Guy, it's thugs. In Lagos on top that matter.

Which flag are you looking for again?

ganisucks:
This is what APC is now capable of. A week ago, I would have said it's not possible; but knowing the level of panic in APC; I can say with good knowledge that APC is capable of doing anything.

OsunOriginal:
As electioneering picks up ahead of the 2023 elections, things are seemingly not going on well in the LP, Peter Obi's party. Peter Obi and his party have been missing in action, postponing rallies and not showing up, without notice, for campaigns. As if this is not enough, the LP in Ogun state decided to expel Doyin Okupe, the LP's presidential campaign DG, marking the first time the campaign DG of a supposedly leading presidential candidate would be kicked out of the part in the middle of campaigns.

Let's x-ray these and share what this portends for Obi's ambition.

No way PO will surpass APC in SS.

bdon123:
Cant wait for 2023

garfield1:
Which state is atiku sure of in nc apart from maybe plateau

garfield1:
He will beat atiku in nc and lagos

aspher:
He'll win SS and NC inclusive. I'll gladly wager on that. He'll come second in SW. Everything the OP said is probable, especially the religion factor. No one knows if Kwankwaso would drop out from the race, else BAT would have performed reasonably well in NW.
