PoliticsRe: PHOTOS: Sokoto Wins Best Performing State by melvinjames:
Events that have come to light in the last few days, shows this administration may not be as confident as it portrays itself to be.

Appointment of Amina Zakari.
Obasanjo appointed Prof Maurice Iwu to head INEC. There were many Yorubas that could have filled the position but perception matters. Dr Jonathan appointed Jega as INEC head when there were many qualified Ijaw/southern professors to pick from.
This is the first time INEC has as its umpire a man from the same region as the president.
Apart from the INEC chief coming from same region as the president, we now have the added problem of Buhari's rumoured niece/inlaw as head of collation centre. She was posted to logistics awhile ago, what prompted her redeployment to the heart of INEC?
To make matters worse, incidents form that INEC rejected (because it overwhelmingly favours Buhari) is now going to be used.
Why all these sudden about turn?

Python Dance 2
Opposition candidates all alluded to the fact that security services favoured APC in Osun gubernatorial. So why did the army choose January/February for its operation, considering its past record? Sceptic like me believes it is to intimate opposition supporters in states like Akwa Ibom, Rivers, Kogi, Kano, Sokoto, Kwara etc.

9mobile and Keystone bank
We now know Isa Funtua, a close confidant of the President is behind the acquisition of 9mobile and keystone bank, helped in part by his son inlaw Ahmed Kuru. Why are these "nameless" cabal suddenly buying off assets if they believe Buhari would win?
How does this perception of Buhari's cronies buying assets help Buhari's integrity?

Oba of Benin cannot command relevance? Name any King more respected than the oba of Benin?

Bros how did Awolowo die, you come across as a discerning person, you should be able to decipher made up stories from facts.

Otemwen utase!

Even the Awolowo u mentioned was not so selfless the civil war comes to mind but dats a discussion for another day..

Yes tinibu was greedy and now he has gotten bitten... So wuld u rather the snake venom kills him rather than hekp him out?
Awolowo was selfless, he was on the federal govt side and had to do everything to ensure the govt survives.


Can't Tinubu just retire?
Either he retires honorably or he ends up in prison.
SW politicians are already building alliances to take over from him.
Fashola
Fayemi
Amosun etc are justling to wrest power from Tinubu's dictatorial reign.

I am from the South South too

But look at the bigger pictures bro this northerners are no longer hiding thier desire to subjecate the south...

Wich you and i call home.
Am Edo like you but you should remember Tinubu is not Awolowo whom our parents revered.
Whilst Awolowo was selfless, Tinubu is on a mission to enrich himself.

We all know the niggaa goofed big time he lead his ppl down a ditch....... but its very dangerous if we throw the yorubas to the dogs
We have to choose what's in our best interest. As someone from the SS I don't see why we should align with the SW considering what they did to Jonathan.
The above not withstanding, I would join any party Fayose Joins.

They should make use of the agents list that was submitted by the Poroye faction. PDP is still PDP under the law, the only area of controversy is who really is the authentic candidate of the party and that has already been resolved. The election cannot be postponed because of the internal crisis in just one party. Materials, security and other logistics have already been deployed so, election must hold on Saturday November 26th.

Edo election was canceled because of Boko Haram even though Edo state is in the SS.
Buhari's INEC cancels election when it suits APC.
Gone are the days of credible elections.

3 days after the wrongs of Okon Abang was rectified they expect to hold a credible election.
Which sane society does that?
In any sane society the election would have been postponed, Nigeria is not a sane society.

I have been using google before you even know it exist but since i can't find anything relating to election violence in 2003 i think you need to dig something out to back your claim or else i'll take it as normal lying you guys are used to.
You may have been using it without knowing how the search criteria works. What are you gonna ask me to search next?
Should I go and search if Aisha Buhari have bearbear in her garden?

Have a nice day.

Have you forgotten Buhari contested in 2003, 2007 before the 2011? Did you see anything like violence in 2003 and 2007? That's where you need to use your brain.. Have you forgotten what happen inside PDP camp before the election? Have you forgotten the Northerners don't want him to contest before.. next time try to think outside your fish brain.
There was violence up north in 2003 and 2007, the 2011 violence was the worst hence the reference.
Thank God he won the 2015 election, he was gonna bathe the dogs and the baboons in blood.

TO slap you just dey hungry, Buhari is from Katsina and did you hear of any violence in Katsina? That why you need to use your brain.. You mean Buhari just went to Kano ask them to start killing them self? have you forgotten a Kano man was part of those that contest the election?
When GEJ was declared winner, how many people died in the SW, SE or SS?
The violence happened mainly in the north, Buhari's core supporters were not just in Katsina, he won 12million "Northern"votes in 2011.
