Your wail of sorrow is of no help to Obaseki. What you need do now if stop being foolish and go win him the APC ticket.

Youngjohnosas:
only a thief would attack governor obaseki's style of leadership, Wat he did was simply put the interest of the masses before the cabal and thugs supporting oshiomhole, these criminals expected obaseki to share the state resources amongst them and he simply backed out.

He has done nothing wrong save for frustrating kabaka and Co that felt they were indispensable in Edo state politics. Even if we want a change in leadership it wouldn't be POI a renowned thief and desperator, Edo state is free from Agberos and their powers have been curtailed,

A vote for POI is a vote for the resurgence of Agberos and thuggery in Edo, oshiomhole should bow his head in shame for stopping so low for the personality of POI.

Na now hin day break ba ?

Talk na do governor I salute u. Na the governor wey Igbo people they call point n kill governor be this O. This the man that want to stop from ruling Lagos. Yorubas be careful of enemies within.

As in Dunlop Elite or Ekiti parapo Elite ?!

moderatedguy:
Bubu is weak and senile

Exactly that is why all the previous foolish president were unable to enact laws granting financial automony to state judiciary n legislature.

This question funny die.Why is a former governor concerned about the gubernatorial election in his state but a retarrd likely a nobody is concerned about why a former governor is concern about state election ? Na wa for Nala O !

TonyeBarcanista:

The Board of Directors is headed by Adesina. The Committee that probed was appointed by the Board of Directors (Adesina). Now you expect USA or any sane mind to accept their verdict? Lol Can Ibrahim Magu led EFCC indict Buhari for Corruption?

Is this the first problem by AfDB of any of it president ? If it is not how was that probe conducted, if the bank had also constituted it own board to try it president why should the rule now be changed because a Nigerian is at the help ?

But the SW is still insisting he should go n defend himself or is there something I am missing?! Beside he did defend himself according to laid regulations of the Bank whay I can not understand is why USA is bent on orchestrating a probe that is not in regulation with the practice of AfDB a probe that was never witnesses by any previous head of the Bank. Why must Adeshina be singled out just because USA feels like.

I am all for the probe so long it is within the practice he signed his appointment to head the bank any contrary opinion is null n void, US or no US.

SpatialKing:
If Adesina was from SS/SE region.. The story and tones from the SW region would have been different..

You would hear statements like

"Allow him to defend himself"
"SS/SE like defending their sons unlike we in the SW"
"Anyone that has worked with GEJ we aren't supprised"
"Nobody should interfere with US probe"


Now because their son is involved...

This is how to fight back with politics the USA is using not allow Ipob push you where dem push Obaseki.

Former African leaders have thrown their weight behind the embattled President of the African Development Bank, AfDB, Dr. Akinwumi Adesina, stating that no nation has veto power over the Bank, and no nation should have such power.

Recall that the United States of America, USA, during the week, called for an independent probe of Adesina. However, the African leaders, in a statement, on Friday, said: “No nation, regardless of how powerful, has veto power over the African Development Bank, AfDB, and no nation should have such power.”

The joint statement was signed by former Presidents, such as like Chief Olusegun Obasanjo(Nigeria), Boni Yaya(Benin Republic), John Kufour(Ghana) and Hailemariam Desalegn(Ethiopia) among others.

Other African leaders that signed the statement include Ellen Sirleaf-Johnson, Liberia; Joyce Banda, Malawi; Joaquin Chissano, Mozambique; Goodluck Jonathan, Nigeria; Mohammed Marzouki, Tunisia; Benjamin Mkepa, Tanzania; and Tandja Mamadu, Niger.

The statement was also endorsed by former President of Tanzania, Jakaya Kikwete; Rupiah Banda, Zambia and Kgalema Motlanthe of South Africa.

They said the Chairman of the Board of Governors, based on the report of the Ethics Committee, had earlier declared Dr. Adesina exonerated. They also asked all concerned to respect the rules, procedures and governance structures of the Bank.

According to the elders, they were concerned with the recent developments at the Bank, where some whistleblowers alleged that Adesina violated the Banks’ Code of Ethics, though he has firmly and consistently declared his innocence of the allegations.

The Ethics Committee of the Board of Directors, a legal oversight body of the Bank, made up of representatives of shareholders, had cleared Dr. Adesina of all 16 allegations, declaring them as baseless and unsubstantiated and exonerated him completely.

The former African leaders said at this critical time that Africa is battling with COVID-19, the Bank and its President should not be distracted.

According to them, “differences will always occur, but we urge all shareholders work together. All shareholders should work with mutual respect, and honour the rules and procedures of the Bank and its governance systems that have served it well for 56 years.

“No nation, regardless of how powerful, has veto power over the African Development Bank, AfDB, and no nation should have such power.” They are of the opinion that Dr. Adesina Akinwumi was doing a remarkable job in steering the organisation.

“The Bank announced a $10 billion crisis response facility to support countries in Africa. The Bank also successfully launched a $3 billion ‘Fight COVID-19 social bond’, the largest ever US dollar-denominated bond in world history,” they noted.

The former African leaders said that powered by Adesina’s vision and leadership, the shareholders of the Bank from 80 countries all approved a general capital increase of $115 billion for the Bank, the largest in its history since establishment in 1964.

They said: “The Bank has been doing a lot for women, with a $3 billion fund to provide access of finance to women, supported by G7 countries and Africa.

“Across the continent, the Bank’s presence and work have been highly visible and impactful.

“In less than five years, the Bank’s High 5 agenda has impacted over 333 million people, from access to electricity, food security, access to finance via the private sector, improved transport and access to water and sanitation.

“The Bank has maintained its stellar AAA rating among all global rating agencies. The shareholders of the Bank have all played very important roles in supporting the Bank to achieve these impressive results.”

I just weak for many people on NL.
What is the big the in ensuring Adesina is accountable?! This are the same people screaming Buhari is corrupt O.

SarkinYarki:
Without the foriegn equity AFDB would have since gone moribund like every other African led organization ...So just because some accountability is requested we all start talking about how a mistake was made in the 80s

The AFDB is the only working world class organization the Africa has today and the reason is simple there has been accountability .. If we allow African run that place like they run their local Govts without any accountability that place would have been dead since the 80s.. Mr Adeshina is one of my favorite Nigerian administrators around , infact I have been among those clamouring for him to be made president but the allegations we read actually look very Nigerianisque, it's exactly the kind of thing plaguing us in this country and such things kill organization

Are u Igbo?
Latinos / black are more than white in Brazil but white still rule them.

TheGodlessGod:
Let's all know that white people aren't the original owners of America, that invaded the country and massacre the aboriginals just like that did in Australia and other parts of the world.

The black Americans build USA with their sweats and blood and they've claim to the country than anybody else.

It's even recorded that the first people white met in America were originally from Africa but it's still unsure.

The point is white population around the world is going down and black people are doubling their population more than ever, have you ever reason why Trump Ban nigerians from coming to USA despite nigerians been the best and richest immigrants in America??. It's because he has seen the statitics.

Minnesota that was once 99% whites is now between 60% and the percentage is dropping fast, somalis and afro Americans are outnumbering them.

The blacks now have black cities and towns, they now dominate some region senate and reps.

It's believe 100 years from now the whites won't be a majority in USA.

Now imagine 200 years from now, the whites will be a minority due to their low birth rate and fertility issues

OSAGIE IZE IYAMU is not popular with Edo state voters.

He is an Oshiomole man.

IN A FREE AND FAIR ELECTION, IZE IYAMU IS NO MATCH FOR GOVERNOR GODWIN OBASEKI.

Ize Iyamu with the corrupt allegation trailing him is banking on FEDERAL MIGHT to dethrone Governor Obaseki.

The APC primary will prove if that is true.

How does anyone keep working 3-4 months in an establishment that does not pay salary ? At time I am baffled by all this story I read on NL. If my January salary isn't paid you can be rest assured I won't be doing any work in February.

Enyimbafc:
Chai see ekiti mate for primary school oo.

No be same Ebonyi wey we sabi ? 10 years you will be wailing of marginalisation while Ekiti is still balling.

Where is the pix of the interchange?!
My Ib people pls post pix as your state grow in leaps n bounds.

You did not ask the clown you quoted why Abia is now a shithole rotten n condemned stats or is Abaribe not representing Abia ?

You are a disgrace!!! No wonder the country keep going backwards cos of people like you,never appreciate even whenit is certain it will affect you most and not the senator! Tueh

If what you narrated here is what you deduced from that video a double edge plank need to be used to crack up your dead medulla.

Abaribe raised a point and Lawan made it clear that he had more than enough share to participate all along the debate.

There is no challenge but mutual respect duly accorded by both parties in the conversation.

FARA4GA:

Contrary to the belief that the approval of the $22.7b loan was a smooth sail on the floor, this video shows that there was tension on the floor of the Senate on Thursday following the insistence of the opposition senators to know details of the $22.7bn foreign loan request from the President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari (retd.).

The Minority Leader, Senator Enyinnaya Abaribe, drew the attention of the Senate to the anomaly and requested the President of the Senate, Ahmad Lawan, to allow a clause by clause consideration of the loan request.

His suggestion was turned down by Lawan who said the report of the panel should not be subjected to debate, based on the rules of the Senate.

Obviously uncomfortable with the position of Lawan, Abaribe warned the presiding officer that going ahead to hoodwink the Senate into passing the multi-billion dollar loan request without the details would spell doom for the country.

The matter degenerated into a serious tension with the senators viewing the development along partisan lines.

Watch the video to see as the drama unfolds.

?! If them give me chance I fit wipe you to death over this your comment.

EmekaBlue:

I'm from Abia state a highly industrious state especially at Aba. But really it's not fair how this state has become a mockery in NIGERIA instead of the FG to support the state govt and invest in it cleaning up the state but rather choose to be a state of mockery especially in nairaland...then we wonder why people like Nnamdi kanu fight for a split in d country.

Opexzy:
That oshiomole was reinstated is not my problem.. My problem is the fact that another court did it in less than 24hrs. On what grounds? , when was the case filed.

Judgement in this country is to the highest
bidder. Shame on our judiciary.

You are not a wise man but an extremely foolish one. You are concerned about a fraudulent judgement being reversed but not worried a foolish court suspended the chairman of the ruling political party without him or his lawyer present. Some of you need your head flogged thoroughly so u can at least reason like humans.

Don't go n wail to death over Oshobaba your father is not fit to lace his shoe O.

I tell you my own O.
No go die like fool over matter wey no concern you, your unborn generation or dead generation.

A word they say is enough for the wise but I no say bigotry no go gree make you leave the matter till your fly go enter dead body enter grave.

Maxymilliano:
The court is not competent to issue that order as it is a court of equal jurisdiction. The judge should be suspended immediately !

APC is gradually setting the country on fire by bastardizing the Nigerian Judicial system

Even this APC is worse than leprosy. The moment they infect u that's the end. What's now the difference between PDP and this propaganda we voted for. Even I still prefer the PDP to this nonsense we are withnessing. At least PDP brought in prosperity, what has APC done to the polity? Poverty I guess.

Infrastructure.
Abuja Lagos kaduna Borno n PH with brand new terminals, rail development like never witnessed before in Nigeria. Bridges n road 2.

I totally agree with you but it is under this dullard Nigeria came out of recession and now growing the economy beta than South Africa. We can argue who is beta all year round but the fact on ground shows this woman is getting beta result.

Concerning anyone opening the cans of worm Buhari as in his locker, I am sorry I don't give in to assumptions out of bigotry hate or foolishness so I'd rather wait till the fact of such corruption cases are presented. A quick one, only fools convict anyone out of assumption, sentiments or hearsay.

johnmartus:
Buhari administration keep witness misfortune every day and reason is Because of those he gave power to . After his tenure elapsed you will hear a lot of secrets and evil things being perpetuate by this calibers.
Mind you kemi is better than this dullard and empty brain he appointed as a minister of finance.

Elechi is leader ?!
I am shocked at the foolishness you Igbo hype you failed leaders.
Martin Elechi was not even among the top 25 working governors during his tenure. The Ebonyi he leads is still a shithole of dungeon not fit for human existence so what exactly is he leading abi u don de mad ni ?!
i

Lawgod247:
Nwancho Martin Elechi is an elder statesman and an administrator per excellence. Ebonyi state is privileged to have visionary leaders right from inception. Elechi is not a politician per se, I prefer to use the term "leader" when describing him. May God bless the two gentlemen in the picture. It is really good to see them together in such a jolly mood.
