kedeojo: He is not an ingrate like Fubara. There is no where you don't have godfatherism but just depends on the type. Even in churches it happens cos some pastors close to the GO always get posted to lucrative branches. Some of you are part of the travails of Fubara now. I know in your region, betraying is high.
Another nitwit on the loose. Barking like a hungry dog this morning.

press9jatv: Breaking: Gov. Fubara directs HLGAs to immediately takeover the running of all the 23 LGAs pending the conduct of a fresh election by RSIEC.
Following Supreme Court judgment which invalidated the October 5th, 2024 LGA election in Rivers State, Governor Fubara in a statewide broadcast on Sunday directed outgoing LGA chairmen to handover to the heads of admin of their LGA effective Monday 3rd March, 2025. Governor Fubara said more directives and next line of action will be made known when the True Certified Copy(ctc) of the Supreme Court judgment is received.. Assures complete compliance to Supreme Court judgements without reservations.
Details later…..
The only time Tinubu will win Rivers State is if he aligns with Fubara. If he fails to heed to this advise and follow that drunkard, he's on his own. We will carry him under 0.5 in Rivers State come 2027. That greedy drunkard has done enough harm and need to be retired.
You were supported by someone who spent all his political arsenal on you, yet you betrayed him in less than a month, along with the entire political family.
It’s good to want to be independent, but why use treachery to beg for power, only to obtain it and betray those whom God used to uplift you?
If you don’t want godfatherism, stop depending on godfathers to win elections.
A fresh local government election will be conducted and AA candidates in some local governments will still emerge
Since Wike don mad, Sim will show him better madness.
Sim ignored the Assembly members because they are inconsequential. Their matter go tie wrapper and they will look for relevance till the next Assembly elections and then they will be boothed out. Una think say na only una and that Supreme Cult dey mad.
Rebuker: Afenifere Youth Leader, Eniola Ojajuni, Freed After 12 Days in Captivity
The National President of the Afenifere Youth Council, Eniola Ojajuni, who was kidnapped, has finally regained his freedom after spending 12 days in captivity.
His release was confirmed on Saturday by the National Secretary of the Youth Council, Biodun Aderohunmu, who simply said, “He has been released.”
Ojajuni was abducted on Monday, February 17, while traveling to Abuja for a meeting.
During his time in captivity, a viral video showed him revealing that his kidnappers had demanded a ransom of ₦100 million and two tricycles for his release.
As of the time of this report, it is unclear whether the ransom was paid or not. However, a video of him shortly after his release has been trending online, where he confirmed that he was freed in Ibilo, Edo State.
phantom: It's unfortunate and kids are here making noise. Of course they don't see the tragedy in all this. The Supreme Court has given a judgement and most people CLEARLY DO NOT THINK IT DID JUSTICE TO THE ISSUE.
When your supreme court loses credibility, it creates room for disaster.
Wike was busy bribing these men and women while we screamed down the heavens but Tinubu looked the other way because of 2027. No wahala... let's watch!
He will look for his votes the other way too. If one has been following up with Wike's kind of politics you'll understand what played out in this Judgement. But despite all these, we are patiently waiting.
ogododo: Recently, former Military President Ibrahim Badamasi Babangida (IBB) admitted that the late Basorun Moshood Kashimawo Olawale (MKO) Abiola won the June 12, 1993 presidential election.
The June 12 election has been a heated topic with different accounts of the events narrated by different parties.
However, in his autobiography: “A Journey in Service,” which was launched in Abuja, the former President said he was convinced that Abiola won.
This is according to Prof Yemi Osinbajo, Nigeria’s immediate past Vice President, who reviewed the book.
“He also answers the question whether Abiola actually won the June 12 election, and I quote him, ‘although I am on record to have stated after the election that Abiola may not have won the election, upon deeper reflection and a closer examination of all available facts, particularly the detailed election results, which are published as an appendix to this book, there was no doubt that MKO Abiola won the June 12 elections,” Osinbajo said.
In a statement, Kola Abiola on behalf of the family of late MKO Abiola, said the memoir reopened painful memories of the tragic events of the annulled election.
The Abiola family insisted that the lessons from the annulled June 12 election have not been learnt.
Abiola expressed the family’s disbelief at how long it took Babangida to publicly acknowledge what the world already knew.
“It took the former military President, General Ibrahim Babangida, an incredibly long 32 years to confirm what the whole world knew all along—that Bashorun MKO Abiola won the 1993 presidential election,” Kola said.
Abiola noted that the June 12 election’s significance extended beyond just his family, stressing that many other families were directly impacted by the annulment, and numerous lives were lost in its aftermath.
“There were so many other families directly affected and lives lost as a result of the annulment, not to mention the profound impact on the unity and economic development of our great country, Nigeria, to date,” he said.
phantom: Leave that one first. When time reach, all those men go tuwama from the state. We go fess puncture that im second eye make im kuku blind at once. 😂
helinues: 2 years gone bye yet nothing tangible in terms of development that Gov Fubara can point out to.
See Akwa Ibom, past , present governors working together to bring development to their state but in Fubara's case, he's the Putin of Nigeria fighting everyone.
Gov Fubara can't even come out boldly that he's in this particular political party at the moment
He distracted himself with unnecessary petty issues
And to those who always use their evil support to send others to oblivion, what precisely are you gaining from that.
Records, history have it that whoever una support must be relegated
Tell Tinubu that he will have less than 2% from Rivers State in 2027.
I saw Kelechi Nwogu jumping down from his convoy yesterday dancing to some music. Imagine a man that has improvished his Local government for decades dancing, a man who single handedly picks local government chairmen dancing. What a shame!
If una dance finish, make una go occupy those offices. Supreme Court is now being occupied by dogs who call themselves Justices.

The most senseless post on nairaland.com
I don't know why a full grown man would wake up on a Sunday morning to drop thrash. Supreme Court don give judgment abi? Make una go comot the people wey dey occupy the offices. No be to dey here dey Salivate untop Fubara matter.
27 pro-wike law makers said they've defected and the video is all over and today full grown men who claim they are sensible are still claiming that they did not defect. I just dey look Tony Okocha, that one is as useless as the P in Pneumonia.
eyesoflagos: My name is Alphonso Olajide, co-founder of EyesOfLagos.com. I’m a blogger and web developer, and today, I want to share my heartbreaking story.
On July 27, 2024, I lost my beloved brother to kidney failure. He was a dedicated pastor at a Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) parish in Ahmadiya. For nearly five years, he served the church with his time, energy, and personal resources. But when tragedy struck, the same church he gave so much to turned its back on him.
When my family approached RCCG for a burial space at their cemetery, we expected compassion. Instead, they asked us to pay nearly one million Naira to lay him to rest. Their excuse? “It’s the system.”
Where was the love? Where was the support for a man who had given his all to this church? Back in March, when my brother was fighting for his life, he was taken to Pastor Adeboye. All they gave him was anointing oil.
This experience broke me. It opened my eyes. I can no longer support a system that values money over people. This is why I have stopped going to church—I choose to pray directly to God.
To anyone still blindly giving their hard-earned money to these churches, think twice. My brother’s story is proof that when you need them the most, they might not be there for you.
May God judge those who humiliated him after all his years of service.
So called Men of God that judged TB Joshua, some of them no even sympathise with the man family till date na them una dey pray oh God of this Oh God of that. The Church systems in Nigeria dey like cult. That's how they run most churches.
GistMedia0: "Burna Boy promised me a Lamborghini just to sleep with me!" – Socialite Sophie Egbueje cries out in a leaked voice recording.
A leaked voice recording has set social media on fire as socialite Sophie Egbueje accuses Burna Boy of deception. According to Sophie, she was allegedly convinced by Ama Reginald, a close associate of Burna Boy, to sleep with the singer in exchange for a Lamborghini. However, after the encounter, Burna Boy reportedly failed to deliver on his promise, leaving her feeling betrayed.
The leaked conversation, where Sophie painfully narrates her ordeal to an unknown person, has sparked widespread reactions. While some criticize transactional relationships, others are praising Burna Boy for dashing her gold-digging hopes.
As the controversy rages on, Burna Boy and his team have yet to respond, while Ama Reginald has remained silent on the matter.
Mrs. Ekaette Unoma Akpabio, wife of Senate President Godswill Akpabio, has strongly denied the sexual harassment allegations leveled against her husband by Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan, calling them fabricated and without merit, News360 Nigeria reports.
In a recent interview, Mrs. Akpabio refuted the claims, emphasizing the cordial relationship that once existed between their families. She described the allegations as “baseless fantasies” and questioned the credibility of the accusations.
Addressing the alleged incident, she stated that on December 8, 2023—the date Senator Akpoti-Uduaghan referenced—she was at her family’s residence. She further stressed that the bond between both families predates Senator Natasha’s marriage, making the accusations even more surprising.
Mrs. Akpabio also defended her husband’s reputation, noting his longstanding commitment to women’s inclusion in governance and his track record of fairness and professionalism. She warned against the spread of false accusations and announced her intention to take legal action over the matter.
Her response follows Senator Akpoti-Uduaghan’s claims during a live television interview, where she alleged she faced sexual harassment and victimization from the Senate President.
Is there justice in Nigeria? No. We have a bunch of corrupt men and women in the judiciary. Wike and his Team have concluded Fubaras matter some months ago. Tinubu wants Rivers State at all cost. But believe me, e never finish. There's war ahead.
Osazeidehen: My issue with Akpabio started on 8th of December, 2023. When myself and my husband visited Akwa Ibom for Senator Akpabio’s birthday. Akpabio was showing me around his house and was holding my hands with my husband following behind us when he said, he wants me to come and be spending special moments in his house. My husband heard him and later told me not to travel abroad alone or be with the Senate President alone — Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan on Arise TV Morning Show today
Hand wey go touch Akpabio don dey grow small small. I followed up Joy Nunieh's issues with Akpabio and now this with numerous others that have been swept under the carpet. Let this man know that the day he will fall, nobody will be there to save him. He's been doing a lot and he thinks he's too powerful and that his yeye wife doesn't want to call him to order. This is all he does with the billions he stole from Akwa Ibom state treasury and all he has to offer is desecret the office of the Senate President. Does he know what Senate Presidents in other countries are doing? His only problem is Pvssy. U wan fvck every woman you see and you think say u dey normal.
