She deserves it.

My kinda woman, after my wife.

OGHENAOGIE:
let them test their popularity ur explanation holds no water anyway... One region can as well take it all who cares

Thank you for your feedback. My explanation was for people who have rational minds and exceptional understanding.

juman:
All the six regions, only the north central is exempted, forgotten, neglected, abandoned and ignored.
Why?

I think it was a bit of a difficult decision. NW wanted the Senate Presidency and the only way to pacify them was to allocate DSP and Speaker to enable SS take the Senate Presidency and foster religious balancing. The remaining slot of Deputy Speaker was between SE and NC. SE clinched it so as to foster sense of inclusiveness.

NC will get SGF...and it seem to be Lalong or Akume. NC also has the Party Chairmanship.

It tough to explain, but that's the reality on ground.

Tolu my G.

Gov. El-Rufai tha boss

MikeofAfrica:
I can see that you are trying to rewrite history so that it will suit your narrative.

The igbos had a huge population in Lagos even before Tinubu was born. Dr. Nnamdi Azikiwe was elected the first Senator for Lagos State while Tinubu was still a child.

The igbos were among the pacesetters of the Lagos project. Most parts of the Island were developed by the igbos after Nigeria independent. The igbos began the importation of goods at Lagos Seaports. They taught other Nigerians how to use the Seaports to make money and till today, the igbos are still dominating all the seaports in Lagos.

Hence Tinubu did not attract any igboman to Lagos. He was a monumental failure as Governor. The infrastructures of Lagos built by the FG and Jakande almost rotten during his regime.

Hence when Fashola took over in 2007, he declared a state of emergency on Lagos infrastructures. The slogan was " Eko oni baje o " meaning " Lagos will not rotten ". It took Fashola four years to clean the mess of Tinubu regime.

Lagosians rejected Tinubu because they know he has nothing to offer. The APC then went back to the drawing board and perfected the tribalization and rigging of the guber poll .

Keep it up. Your attempts at revising history is legendary.

What was the percentage of Igbos in Lagos pre 1999?

Claiming that Tinubu was a monumental failure means that you are not a serious fellow.

It is very simple.

The success of Lagos actually turned out to be its undoing during the last elections.

Tinubu's Lagos, being a success story, attracted Igbos and other South South minorities who came in search of greener pastures. Of course, it is known that they are more PDP aligned and would always vote PDP no matter what.

The Muslim-Muslim ticket, the emergence of Obi [and his Church centric strategy] and the lackadaisical attitude of core APC loyalists made it an uphill task for APC in the presidential elections.

However, corrections were made during the Governorship elections and as they say, the rest is history.

This is not for the main inauguration.

The list stated here is for the Inauguration Youth Concert. She is the chairperson of the Inauguration Youth Concert.

Inauguration activities and persons involved are yet to be fully released.

Good. She is very competent.

"A bad actor like [Vladimir] Putin"

One of the biggest weaknesses of the West, is hubris. What gave you the right to label someone a bad actor.
Don't worry, when Putin finally controls the robots, you will be the first.

On Lia Mohammad



PO - "I am in Onitsha and he went to Washington to announce treason against me. The amount he wasted, could have been used to build a block of 6 classrooms. It is a waste."

...and how many block of classrooms did he build (not renovate) during the 8 years that he was Governor of Anambra? Facts only, no capping.

Obi is good with words and lies easily, yes he has that...but that is where he ends. He will continue to carry the title of a "third placed loser" and that ignoble title will never leave him.

I really hope President Buhari can revoke the Nigerian Passports of these jokers.
For goodness sake, you lost an election (fair and square) and then went to court to seek redress. At the same time, you are demarketing your country on the International stage all for what?
These guys don't love Nigeria at all, they are just after power. They have invested so much but can't bear the pain of defeat.

Congrats to Fintiri.

However, I will urge Binani to head for Tribunal as the magic that happened over Fufore LGA's votes on the 18th of March needs to be explained.

There is a lot of hypocrisy nowadays. Whenever opposition wins, then there is justice and fair elections.

See people that were cursing INEC yesterday now praising them today.

FIFA is very biased.

This U20 World Cup was shifted from Indonesia to Argentina simply because Indonesia criticized Israel for its actions in the West Bank and questioned why they weren't suspended from participating in the World Cup.

Afterall, same Yardstick was used with regards to suspending Russia from FIFA Qatar 2022 and other UEFA competitions due to the War in Ukraine.

Same thing is happening in France, with its brutal and barbaric crackdown of protesters by French police over Pension reforms. Yet no condemnation or calls from within FIFA for them to be suspended.

What is good for the goose, isngood for the gander.

Hypocrites everywhere.

olril17:
The election has not been concluded because collation was still being done.
Abi collation is not part of election again?

Read my comment again. Collation could have been concluded as I don't think it is mandatory for collation to be a public exercise. For purpose of credibility, then yes but as a legal requirement, I don't think so.

Finally, whatever the arguments may be, the matter is now before the Courts.

olril17:
Lol the election has not even be concluded.

The election had been concluded with regards to the aspect of voting. The collation and announcement of 10 LGAs was still pending as at when the REC made the pronouncement.

The issue here is, what is the process of collation as stipulated by law? Must it be in the presence of Party agents and the media? The collation could have been done in secret and then the REC was already aware of the final results and hence he announced it, before any unscrupulous changes could be made by anyone else.

See this case isn't as easy as it seems. Was the REC wrong, YES.

However, the extenuating circumstances that made him to make such declaration is not publicly known yet.

So this might still be a Judicial matter. INEC doesn't have power to unilaterally invalidate what the REC has done.

This is a case of the more you see, the less you know.

Clearly, Binani won the elections on March 18th, before the wuruwuru of Fufore results.

Now this is a case of "revenge" best served cold.

If we should remove emotions and look at this from a purely legal point of view, then she does have a case.

The Electoral Act needs serious amendment to remove loopholes by the 10th NASS

Ofunaofu:
Just has you pointed out. It's a very tricky one but the electoral law is clear, the REC doesn't have the power to make a return. What he did was to usurp the powers of the returning officer that was appointed by the commission.

If we go by the highlighted and allow this rascality to stand, then what will now happen going forward is that any staff of INEC can be concerned by a candidate in an election to make a declaration even when the process have not been concluded

Yes, REC doesn't have such power but he has done it. It is only the Tribunal that can undo what he has done. As to allowing such to stand, I guess it is a loophole that which need to be urgently addressed. Obviously, the drafters of the Electoral Act wouldn't have foreseen a REC usurping the powers of the Returning Officer. It is unprecedented.

AAA593:
Only you don use number 2 take cancel 1 and 3. There's no case bro

You are not getting my point. Yes, the action of the REC is wrong, but it is only the tribunal can that nullify or overturn the effect of the action (declaring Binani as winner). INEC doesn't have such powers, that is if we are going by the Electoral Act.

adioolayi:
No be same Electoral Act empowers INEC to review their own very action within 7days or so?

Review, not overturn. An election can only be overturned by the Tribunal. That's where the case is tricky.

This case is very tricky and not as straightforward as it seems.

I am NOT a Lawyer, so perhaps the experts can advice better.

But sections 149 of the Electoral Act of 2022 as amended that any actions taken by any AGENT or OFFICIAL of the commission with regards to an election, can only be overturned by an Electoral Tribunal or any other competent court of jurisdiction.

The issues here which we can determine are:

1. The REC is an agent and official of the commission, so his action or inaction can only be challenged or overturned by the Tribunal (as derived from section 149).

2. The REC doesn't have any power to declare results as such powers ONLY rest with the Returning Officer. Hence, his action is in breach of the Electoral Act

3. The commission doesn't have the POWER to OVERTURN results. Only the Tribunal can do so.

Seems nah Tribunal go finally settle this matter.

Binani don run Fintiri street.

But you believed the yes daddy phone leak on peter obi right? hypocrisy is a sickness.

But you believed the CJN story by the same Gazette. Hypocrisy is a sickness.

N.B. Both Valentine Obienyem and Kenneth Okonkwo confirmed the authenticity of the tape.

safarigirl:
You people should leave South South out of your evil machinations. God bless.

What evil machinations? The political landscape is changing and SS is gradually aligning with the change (mainstreaming into the centre). I personally think you should key into the change.

APCNig:
We don't need SE.

The alliance between South West, North West and North East is enough for the three regions to rule foreever.

Plus South South (Cross River, Akwa Ibom and Bayelsa bloc) and North Central (Kogi, Kwara, Niger & Benue bloc). Hoping that the South East will align but not expectant on that.

Mere allegations. Where is the evidence that such occurred?

Funny thing on the plot to trap him with women. Abeg shey the man like women ni.....coz there are other allegations o.

On the issue of his bank accounts, abeg which one...the Pandora one or the local one.

Make the man clear road make we move forward.

Pain, frustration, disappointment.
