Dear Seun, please find a lasting solutions to these thread derailers like yarimo who specializes in posting off topic just to derail thread so that front page will be filled with banters and divert people's attention from meaningful engagement

Thank you

Actually, they’re not just derailers but ethnic bigots who would do anything to fan their disgusting ethnic bigotry. It’s high time this is stopped!

This is part of his ambassadorial assignment (in Mexico) too?! 🤔🤔🤔

---So sad it has to come to this---politics is all about loyalty---and nor service to the electorates---

Terribly sad I must say! The yardstick for re-election is now how much of a good and obedient boy you were to the heartless godfathers. This political trend is really terrible for the people and it’s high time the people changed this ugly trend as it’s already getting out of hand!

helinues:
I asked you a straight question..Do you think a politician loosing an election will take it like that without complaining?

At what level is it easier to resolve electoral disputes - at the court which is usually based on technicalities or starting from the lowest level upwards?

Starting with the polling unit, if the electoral officer inputs the wrong data in his records that are meant to be sent for upwards collation, it’s only reasonable that the agents and others draw his/her attention to that and it’s corrected immediately. And when the correct results get to the next level, any dispute is resolved based on factual supports from the lower level(s), etc.

I believe the referenced sections are meant to discourage a technical ‘discard’ of the will of the people, and leaving selection to the court.

Remember the candidates will not be at every polling booth, but reasonable resolutions starting from the lowest levels will give everyone (including the electorates) confidence in the results.

Meanwhile, thanks @op for the good enlightenment.

This is despicable politics to say the least. Organizations and individuals sponsor political candidates all over the world to help to push through favorable policies. However, I don’t think they make them completely toothless, voiceless and mindless. What’s the way forward?!

These guys are too Greedy and selfish


So there are no other people in his community that he can support to become a senate!

Nigerians should wisen up o...
This nonsense has been taken too far

💯……………………………

I bet banditry will subside drastically while the audit is on. There’s no way the current insecurity would linger till now if some heartlessly corrupt security agents ain’t cashing in on the unfortunate blood money.

Honestly, no legislator in contemporary Nigeria merits four terms; na birth right abi na monarchy?

However, do the people even have a right to choose anymore in this brand of democracy currently practiced in Nigeria? The politicians would do anything just to get the blessing of one man, and that’s all. Omo!

Accomplice silencing the executor I believe.

The truth is, if bandits, kidnappers and other wolves in human cloaks are not aided and abetted by wicked and corrupt men of the forces, this problem would be long gone.

sammirano:
What does obi has to tell students of the prestigious university. This is not a poultry

What did Obi have to tell the students, lecturers, professors and guests of Oxford University, Cambridge University, Harvard University, Yale University, Princeton University, Chicago University, University of Pennsylvania and Imperial College? Your guess is as good as mine!

Cyberterror:
Reputable university like OAU is not supposed to allow a 3rd class graduate and political fraudster soil the institution's image.

While ‘less reputable’ universities like: Oxford University, Cambridge University, Harvard University, Yale University, Princeton University, Chicago University, University of Pennsylvania and Imperial College, spend thousands of dollars to host the 3rd class graduate right? Your logic makes a lot of sense 👏🏼

Jesus!!! 😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮

Where are the ‘huge savings’ from the fuel subsidy removal?!!!! 🤔🤔🤔🤔

brain54:
Tibunu has kept on borrowing with little or nothing to show for it...

They should be a cap limit on the amount to borrow. But we have a rubber stamp senate led by the Akpa that would do anything to please his master.


State governments should also be blamed and held accountable because they are just hiding behind tibunu/fg while being unaccountable and wasteful!

I agree completely with your point on SG. Maybe Nigerians focus too much on the FG. What are the states doing with the now ‘always celebrated high FAAC Allocations’ arising from the subsidy removal? Seems the allocations are personal properties of the governors or their shares of political jamboree!

Just like the executive elective positions, I think the legislative arm also needs to be tenored. We need innovative new ideas. It shouldn’t be personal property to a few.

Agreed 💯 on this. Government should provide education and all. But being uneducated isn’t an excuse for stupidity!

I won’t even advise anyone to use the bridge that late at night. People have had very scary experiences crossing some of these bridges at odd hours. So it’s good to avoid breeding miscreants and criminals.

I thought it’s just me. Their internet/data services have been very poor, and I don’t know why. Could it be some cost cutting measures that are resulting in compromises on quality?

helinues:
The hypocritical people would be the one to be loud about this on this thread .

They always have a short memory of so many things that was done in their region for the candidate they supported in 2023.

If they do something, it's politics but let others do same, that's when we will start hearing bunkum stories

Must we bring tribalism, regionalism and religion into every discourse in Nigeria? How can we ever progress as ‘a country’ at this rate? I’m not from the region that’s being referenced, but we need to deal with issues not the tribes or religion of the actors!

Addme:
Jos. A once peaceful and hospitable place

Nigeria. It's well

Exactly! One of the best states to live in Nigeria some years ago. This is why the country needs to be more proactive in its handling of insecurity, not the usual “we condemn…” like iron-condemn scavengers!

Freetech:
Look at the developer critically, you can predict where he comes from.

When that building is pulled down you will begin to hear tribal slur

Is it the man raising the alarm you’re referring to as the developer? 🤦🏽‍♂️

Christistruth00:
Apostle Suleiman is not a man of God !!

It is like Judas Iscariot claiming to speak for Christ

I guess you meant to write “…speak for the *massacred*”

If the devil were to speak and act against this ill that our ‘leaders’ are allowing to run uncontrollably wild, we will agree with him. Let’s focus on the message: ‘Evil is evil no matter who condemns or condones it!’

helinues:
I am not justifying anything oo.

But where have these people being whenever Muslim communities are being attacked?

Kwara state has been on constant attack lately, I have never heard peem from this pokenosers who believe they can use religion to divide us in Nigeria

Abeokuta celebrated 3 religions within a week. Sallah first, followed by Easter then Lisabi day.

I don’t think you’re correct. You may want to scroll back to the Kwara massacre and virtually every other barbaric attack; the outcry (albeit just on SM platforms) from Christians and well meaning Nigerians and non-Nigerians were rather deafening.

We need to not just continue to condemn these barbaric, beastly and cowardly acts, we need to rid this country of this menace. And it’s high time the President, the security agencies, the governors and others started leaving to expectation in this regard. We’re talking about human lives here, but it seems politics takes precedence.

.. while PDP doesn't have the balls to suspend or expel Wike!
Anyway, water will find its level at the end of the day in the unfolding drama of Nigerian politics.

They tried (albeit pretty late), but he that has the backing of the federal might has it all!

Gbadugbakun:
Meanwhile tinubu is in the UK enjoying himself.

This is a very serious and blunt blasting from Trump. Very big shame to the people we call leaders; bringing shame and disrepute to the country. How will this not happen when the Minister of defense is focused on organizing APC convention?!

It’s how some people would want to die for these people that do not give a damn about the citizens that baffles me the most!

Very insightful!

Paulo3ree:
When you don't really have pressing issues you start boycotting common sense
When you are in Rome, behave like Romans
I'm not saying demanding liberality is not a worthy thing to do

The last time I checked, Nigeria is a secular country with freedom of religion. Kaduna particularly is a state with very large mix of Christians and Muslims. I have lived in Kaduna, and the dresses shown in the video are about the typical style of dressing over there (always decent). So which is the Rome and Romans in this case that need to be emulated?

To “use official channels…”; as if they would act if not that it went viral on social media. Imposing archaic practices on others!

Na wa for Nigerian version of democracy o! No one hears anything about LP anymore; it’s now the turn of the once oblivious ADC! Nigerian politicians make una fear God small na! If democracy is this way, then it’s almost impossible to have a government from another party going forward!

Na wa for Nigerian version of democracy o! No one hears anything about LP anymore, it’s the turn of the once oblivious ADC! Nigerian politicians, make una fear God small na!!!

Well written - captures virtually all the actors and factors in the self-destruct drama in the party!

It beats my imagination how any party in their right senses with practically no representation in government except for recent decampees to want to completely deplete their almost nonexistent representatives in government. Makes no sense that instead of seeking out more entrants they would want to chase out the few. Could it be the usual ‘hand of Esau and voice of Jacob’ in Nigerian politics? It’s well for Nigerian politics o!
