vivalavida: Na to sell my car oo. I can't be buying fuel at that price. Sell the damn car, add money and process japa things
Buy a bycicle.
If u go to the abroad you cant afford fuel there too. Fuel is N1500 per litre in UK o. Na why benz owners in naija go to UK and start walking ad entering bus.
DeTribalisedCit: Are you sure you're still talking about the Igbos here? I mean, it is popular knowledge who are best known for this trait above 😎
And I think you urchins need to get your facts straightened up. How can one of you be saying the only water available in the SE is rainy season water fit for only canoes, and you are talking about a River Niger bridge in the East. Who is lying between both of you? 🤔
The port would have to be on a sea/ocean, not a river. Smaller vessels can carry items up a river though at a separate cost.
IgboNiile: Benue state supporting APC , I wish you guys all the best in Benue state. Atleast Plateau state is liberated.
Some of you igbos can be so ridiculous. Politics is about indiduals, not parties in this side of the world. You guys just love to demonize the party APC. It has some old PDP people in it. The south south and middle belt understand this and and dont reason like this.
The governor of Anambra State, Chukwuma Soludo, has congratulated Bola Tinubu on his emergence as the president-elect following the conclusion of the 2023 elections.
In a statement he personally signed on Tuesday, the governor also congratulated Tinubu’s closest opponents for their courageous and impressive outing.
Soludo, who had in the past called for the release of the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu, also appealed to Tinubu to release the Biafran agitator immediately after inauguration.
While commending INEC for the successful completion of the general elections, he noted that “we must seriously continue to reform and strengthen our electoral processes and citizens’ political participation as we march towards a more perfect system”.
The governor, who is also the leader of the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA), thanked millions of Nigerians who voted for candidates of the party across the entire country.
See the full statement below:
The 2023 General Elections in Nigeria have come and gone. Elections in Anambra were generally peaceful, and I commend all the participants, the security agencies, Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) and the citizens.
While we commend INEC for the successful completion of the general elections, it is important to note that we must seriously continue to reform and strengthen our electoral processes and citizens’ political participation as we march towards a more perfect system.
To me, the true heroes of the last elections are the citizens of Nigeria, especially the youths, whose voices will continue to be critical as we collectively strive to build a new Nigeria. Nigeria is the winner, and I am confident that a better future lies ahead of us. Congratulations to all Nigerians!
Let me also congratulate the President-Elect, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu for his election. We congratulate your closest opponents for their courageous and impressive outing. Nigeria needs healing and restructuring, and the fundamental challenges of insecurity and the economy remain humongous.
We pledge to collaborate and partner with you and the Federal Government for the development of Anambra state and Nigeria. This is the only country that we call ours and we must make it work. One critical issue that we must draw your urgent attention is the issue of systemic insecurity in the South East.
While our efforts with the security agencies are yielding significant results, we believe that sustainable peace and security will be enhanced through wider non-kinetic engagements with all critical stakeholders.
In this regard, may I repeat my previous calls and hereby request our President-Elect to release Mazi Nnamdi Kanu immediately after swearing-in (that is, if he is not released before then). We need him around the table as an important stakeholder in discussions about healing and sustainable peace in the South East.
To our newly elected colleagues (Governors-Elect), we say a big congratulation. Let us work together, especially under the auspices of the Nigerian Governors’ Forum (NGF) in pursuit of national common good. We also congratulate the elected members of the National and State Assemblies.
We also thank millions of Nigerians who voted for candidates of the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) across the entire country. We have made modest gains by winning seats at the Senate, House of Representatives and State Assemblies across the country.
As we reform and strengthen our party, we will continue to present our social-progressive agenda as the roadmap for the country. As true believers in the potentials of Nigeria, our party will continue to network and collaborate with all like-minded Nigerians and groups to advance the greatness of this country.
I want to thank God almighty for His unfailing love and grace upon us. Our gratitude also goes to all the stakeholders in the Anambra project— the hardworking indigenes and residents of Anambra, the church, traditional rulers, ASATU, youths and women organizations, traders, transporters, businessmen and women, professionals, captains of industry, CSOs, etc for their faith and continued support to my government and APGA in the state.
You have demonstrated once again that Anambra is truly APGA-land! Despite the heat of the moment, the sophisticated Anambra electorate still delivered an emphatic vote of confidence on us and our party-APGA with an absolute majority in the Anambra State House of Assembly. We will never take your support for granted, and will continue to work every minute of the day to justify your confidence on us.
So far, winners have been declared, and those who are dissatisfied with the results have their rights to pursue their grievances through the due process of the law. My own political party, the All Progressives Grand Alliance, APGA, might challenge several of the results in pursuit of justice.
While we will take all necessary legal steps to recover the seats we believe that APGA won especially in Anambra state but were mistakenly called for other parties, we also know that several of the announced “winners” from other parties are “APGA-nized” and are patriotic citizens of the State.
We therefore expect a progressive House of Assembly that will partner with us to continue the transformation agenda. I hereby extend my hands of fellowship to the elected members of the State and National Assemblies from other political parties in Anambra State: let us work together for the greatness of our dear state.
Elections and partisan politics are over, and we should all now focus 100% of our time on delivering good governance to our people. May Anambra State and Nigeria win always!
Gullible people everywhere like impressionable teenagers.
All Wike wanted was the Presidential ticket or the VP ticket.
That was the first thing he asked for. After Atiku won the ticket he conceeded and then asked for the PDP Chairmanship to go to the south. When they denied that was when he went mad and started wearing asoebi with his 5 southern brothers.
Even with all the atrocities by APC and herdsmen attack happening there
Anyway congrats, hope the people voted the party and not the candidate
So it is APC attacking them. You guys are so deluded in that ur IPOBic propaganda world that you regard a party as the devil. Good thing many Nigerians arent as daft as you. Lol!
loosecanon50: I don’t doubt you, but he bringing it up again when it’s less that 24hrs to the election speaks volumes. He himself knows there’s nothing that can be done at the moment to redress the situation.
loosecanon50: Paid propagandists at work. He didn’t complain since, it’s now when it’s just 24hrs to election…maybe he was in coma since. APC will not kill us with laugh
Tomorrow, we’ll shock them again. LP is a revolutionary movement.
Lifeangel: APC handiwork to bring confusion and diversion to LP. Since GRV couldn't be bought with their useless 20 billion naira?they resorted to use the op GRV we know and on his train we movee
Ceenaija: Instead of APC to campaign and win voters they are now looking for short cut.
shadelek: Lolz Why is he just voicing out now that the said Labour Party is now a popular party in Lagos? I'm suspecting opposition's handwork here
But he has been complaining,. He was on AriseTV 6 months ago in this interview:
His case has been in court since last year and Jandor has been using this courtcase to campaign since this year so that PDP would be considered a viable alternative. APC has not mentioned it and the reason is because it would work in their favour if the surprise comes after the election (if LP wins).
This guy is very immature and divisive. A governor should be conciliatory, not divisive.
See what he posted on twitter after that market burning. He then deleted the tweet. Smh. Has the fire been investigated? Did the APC set fire on the market? How does it correlate to the death of funsho williams? Was that APC too? Even his wife said his PDP opponent killed him. What does he mean by tables will turn?
This guy just sits online and repeats all the IPOB talking points. Not a sensible leader at all.
