This kind of action is rare in Nigeria.

Thats what you get in Anambra state. Soludo and other contestants have done theirs, it remains Ngige.

mekuszyx:
Because he belongs to AC, party of the renegades

Anyway, Ngige has always been a serial loser. He had lost a senatorial election twice before he was rigged into Anambra government house in 2003 by Chris Ubah.

^^^^
We are still waiting for Ngige to throw in the towel. . . I predict he wont.

Andy Uba visits peter Obi and congratulates him. Thats what we call Anambra politics!!

^^^^ Andy Uba might be warming up for 2014.

^^^^ Thats what you get when billionaires use their money to contest for election.

Andy Uba has accepted defeat and congratulated Obi. He had promised to work with him and not to challenge Obi's victory at tribunal.
Anambra politicians are now showing some maturity. I hope that Ngige and other Nigerians politicians would emulate their spirit of sportsmanship.

Here is the video link

This is what I call maturity. Ngige should follow suit immediately to avoid loosing his already depreciated respect among Anambrarians.
I hope Andy Uba will now rebuild the already tarnished image of his family.

He should join APGA and re-contest in 2015;he will definitely win by then.

ndu_chucks:
Soludo should now have time to prepare for the criminal charges that will be filed against him shortly. He forgot to completely cleanup his mess at the CBN and his anticipated immunity as a governor will no longer be available. Its time to lawyer up, Mallam Soludo, or to escape to London.

I have a newfound respect for Ojukwu at this point. The man is indeed, Ndiigbo's Mandela. While I disagree with his civil war stance, the man is indeed a true Nigerian hero.

You are not alone in above highlighted lines. As time passes by, more of Ojukwu traducers will see reason to appreciate the past and present actions of the man.

Thats why Anambra state is the light of the nation:politically matured.
Soludo, it very good of you to have accepted the defeat, I now advise you to honourably go back to IMF.

Onlytruth:
Does it ever occur to all these anti-Ojukwu campaigners here that Anambra people may have actually voted for their favorite candidate? The way I look at it, this election might actually signal the level of rigging that happened in earlier elections in my state. The previous elections might have been so massively rigged, that if they were fair, there would not even be any sign of other parties in Anambra state.

I would say this again, Anambra people are far more opinionated than other people in Nigeria. You don't lead them by the nose. So, if they elected Obi, they elected someone they can actually trust.

You cannot build heaven on pure lies, and Anambra people know he is lying to them. At least Peter Obi won't steal their money and they know it. So, everyone should respect our wishes here.

Thank you very much my brother.  Sometimes, I wonder why some little demons always cultivate these believe that they are wiser than the greater populace who had made their decision.

If governor Obi had not performed well in his first term,even the wishes of Ojukwu wouldnt have saved him. Mbadinuju messed up from 1999 to 2003 and he was massively voted out.

RoadStar:
You are not ashamed. How proud are you when you come in the midst of some Nigerians and say you are from Anambra state.
I asked a question.
How come none of the personalities you mentioned live in Anambra.
Isn't that a source of worry.
But I guess you can't think.
Retard !

You are a pathetic and miserable animal. Just keep on clowning.

Eziachi:
Another unsolicited Igbo expert speaks. The election came without bloodshed as many were hoping, all of a sudden our people are fools for being peaceful and making a choice of their own that had been respected. We can't win .

Dont mind those retarded Yorubas . . . They were hoping to see an election marred with thuggery and political assasinations like they always witness in Yoruba land. However, Anambrarians and their guber candidates showed the world that they are atleast more politically advanced than their peers. They just killed Dapo Dina in Ogun state, who knows how many of their politicians will be assasinated before 2011 elections.


Look at the kind of politics we get in Yorubaland: Assasninations---->   https://www.nairaland.com/nigeria?topic=371733.msg5392424#msg5392424

Shoot2Kill:
So if IKEMBA asks you to starve your relatives or kill your relatives you will comply? Or if IKEMBA ask you to support Yara Dua you will accept? Sometimes you IGBO people make me wonder and to think that it is the educated ones amongst who succumb to these nonsensical ideologies.

I think IGBOS should start thinking with their brains for once instead of tribal pride, it will go a along way in making your lives better. These are the same people who want to form a new nation. If you all worship Ojukwu this much then the IGBO race is doomed. This guy is an old timer who has done more harm than good to IGBOS, this is the same dude who was rubbing shoulders with Abacha and you  IGBOS still worship him this much

This is the same ideology that many Nigerian has adopted in Nigerian churches by worshipping pastors instead of worshipping GOD. Nigerians are really twisted. I thank GOD i don’t worship anyone where I come from. No one is my leader or GOD except the GOD of Abraham.

In my eyes Ojukwu is an irrelevant baboon who should not even matter in today’s Igboland. If you elect him as president he will become a dictator because he has characteristics of being a violent gangster who likes to do things by force. There are many educated and intelligent IGBOS in diaspora who can lead the IGBO nation to greater glory. IGBOS should look to the younger generation for leadership and new ideas on the way forward not an old beat up crocodile like Ojukwu who has emotionally imprisoned most IGBO people’s minds.

Your problem is that of illiteracy and bigotry. It is obvious that you were not able to decipher the message being conveyed by the poster.
Your ranting only exposes the pathetic and evil mind of you ill bred basta.rd. Get a life!!

slimghost:
@Roadster

Were u born of a human being or an ape? honestly, i dont even understand your point again, just blabber . U must be under some curse.

You got the right diagnosis. The retard, Roadster, must be under some devilish curse.

RoadStar:
When did I say I was an igbo man or not
Look at the relative security in Lagos more of your gifted men and women are moving to lagos and Abuja leaving the like of Kalu, Ojukwu and Obi his son to rule ruin their homeland.
And you are there cheering yourself.
Congrats !

Mumu, keep decieving yourself.

Look at the type of security we get in Lagos state and Yorubaland__ Incessant assasinations and robbery.

Igbos will continue being backwards as long as this man is alive

Is your pathetic tribe more advanced that the Igbo race? Nitwit!!

doyin13:
lol. . . You will come across as the true knucklehead if it turns out Roadstar is not Yoruba abi.

Ewu Igbo

By their imbe-cillic rantings,we shall know them. Nkita ara!!
Better go and see your Vet.

RoadStar:
I thought Anambra would've tried someone else (except Uba ofcourse)
There is a huge infrastructural an d commercial underdevelopment in the state.

They're lucky they dint secede from Nigeria.
They would've been living on trees by now.

Anambra state is not Yoruba land where poverty and political assasinations are the norm.
Yoruba knucklehead!!

MrCrackles:
Peter Obi would have won even f Ojukwu didnt annoint him. . . .
Ojukwu's annointing is irrelevant here, is he God? Hell Naaaawwww!!!

\

Again, the quintessential Yoruba imbe-cile.

RoadStar:
Peter Obi wins

Doesn't surprise me, a state where a moronic, imbecilic coward like Ojukwu is celebrated.

It means they are happy with the status-quo in the state.

Well they will remain a backward Igbo state for the foreseable future.

RUBBISH !

Another yoruba retard!!

~Bluetooth:
Born on June 28th, 1963, at the Island
Maternity Hospital, Lagos to the Fashola
Family of Isale-gangan, Lagos, Babatunde
Raji Fashola, also a direct descendant of the
Shomade Family of Isale-Eko through his
paternal grandmother, as well as a
descendant of the Bashua and Suenu
Families of Lagos, began his educational
career at Sunny-Fields Primary School.
Adelabu, Surulere in Lagos. He then
proceeded to Birch Freeman High School,
Surulere, Eko Boys High School, Mushin and
Igbobi College, Yaba, all in Lagos in pursuit
of academic laurels for his secondary and
post secondary education.
Focused, hardworking and determined right
from the youth, Babatunde Fashola made
up his mind early in life to study Law. It was
this ambition that motivated him to seek
and obtain admission into the University of
Benin, to study Law.
As a brilliant budding scholar, the young
Fashola came out with laurels earning the
Bachelor of Laws, L.L.B (Hons) degree in
1987 from the University of Benin, an
institution that had set for itself the most
rigorous standards of academic excellence.
Mr. Fashola was called to the Bar in
November 1988 after a successful one year
stint at the Nigerian Law School. His journey
towards an accomplished legal career began
in 1990 in the law firm of Sofunde, Osakwe,
Ogundipe and Belgore, where he cut his
legal teeth as a litigator over wide-ranging
areas of specialization.
In 1993, he voluntarily disengaged from the
firm of Sofunde, Osakwe, Ogundipe and
Belgore and joined the law firm of K.O.
Tinubu & Company as an investing Partner.
He was the Managing Partner, Lead Counsel
and highest fee earner of the firm from
1994 to August 2002 when he was
appointed the Chief of Staff to His
Excellency, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu,
Governor of Lagos State. He served as Chief
of Staff to Governor Tinubu from 16th
August, 2002 to 6th November, 2006, when
he resigned voluntarily to contest for office
as Governor of Lagos State.
Before and during his appointment, he had
the privilege to serve the State in various
capacities as follows:
Secretary of the Lands Committee of the
Transitional Work Groups; 1999
Member of the Panel of Enquiries into
Allocation of Houses on the Mobolaji
Johnson Scheme at Lekki, 2000
Member of the State Tenders Board; 2002 –
2006
Member of the State Executive Council; 2002
– 2006
Member of the State Security Council; 2002 –
2006
Member of the State Treasury Board; 2002 –
2006
Chairman, Ad-Hoc Committee on the Review
of Asset Distribution among Local
Governments.
He served on and chaired a number of State
Executive Council Committees set up to
consider such matters as laws, Governor's
consent procedures and costs, state honors
and awards to mention but a few.
He is a member of the Nigerian Bar
Association (NBA), the International Bar
Association (IBA) and an Associate of the
Chartered Institute of Taxation of Nigeria.
He is a Notary Public of the Supreme Court
of Nigeria, and has been variously
honoured with awards and certificates of
merit, including the Distinguished Alumnus
Award conferred on him by the University
of Benin Alumni Association.
He is also a recipient of the Lagos State
Public Service Club Platinum Award for
outstanding contribution towards the
development of the Club.
Babatunde Fashola is a Patron of the Law
Students Association of the University of
Benin. He is the second law graduate of the
University of Benin and the first member of
the Nigerian Law School graduating class of
1988 to be conferred with the rank of
Senior Advocate of Nigeria (SAN).
Since coming into office, Mr. Babatunde
Fashola has distinguished himself as an
astute administrator, a thoroughbred
technocrat, a prudent manager of public
funds, an incisive analyst, a rigorous
debater, a dispassionate decision maker and
a compassionate, humane officer of the
first order.
Little wonder then that more honours have
come his way unsolicited. He is a Fellow of
the Chartered Institute of Arbitrators, the
Grand Patron of the Association of Nigerian
Theatre Practitioners (ANTP), Lagos State
Chapter. He was recently honoured by the
Lagos Command of the Nigerian Police for
his unparallel support just as he also
received the Igbobi College Old Boys
Association’s (ICOBA) Professional Award for
Excellence in the field of law.
Mr. Fashola is an ardent sportsman who
passionately loves playing and watching
soccer. He belongs to a number of social
clubs, notably Eko Club, Island Club, Ikoyi
Club, Lagos Lawn Tennis Club and Eagle Club,
Surulere. He is a Patron of the Lagos Island
Club, Yoruba Tennis Club and the Lagos
Country Club by virtue of his office as
Governor of Lagos.
He is married to Mrs. Abimbola Emmanuella
Fashola and they are blessed with children.
Morning shows the day, within the first
year in office, Ladies and Gentlemen,
Governor Fashola was elected The Governor
of the Year 2007 according to the
LEADERSHIP Newspapers published in the
Federal Capital Territory. He was also
conferred with the Governor of the Year for
Infrastructure Development according to
the Board of Editors of THISDAY
Newspapers. However this award, Governor
Fashola has honourably returned when it
became apparent that it was meant to
compromise him in the faithful discharge of
his duties as Governor and the oath of
office to do right by all manner of people
according to the law without fear or favour.
He is also the Governor of the Year 2007 in
the judgement of Global Excellence
Magazine.
Surely, a Brighter and Rewarding Future

Is this the empty resume being compared with that of peter Obi?  I was even expecting to see something like that of Prof Soludo.
The above resume resembles that of any Nigerian graduate__He only went to law school, worked for a law firm and joined the corrupt government of his godfather. Thats what we call a weak resume.

RoadStar:
I have sat for 7 - day courses in LSE and Havard but that does not add to my educational qualifications.
His highest degree in a BA in Philosophy
He's got no masters no PHd

Fashola is a masters degree holder and a SAN

That is how they deceive you  

f00ls !

hahahahaha Thanks for exposing your abysmal ignorance and stupidity to the whole world. I didnt waste time to provide you with peter obi's resume while you are still looking for ways to patch up Fashola's poor academic and career qualifications.
The only thing you were able to come with was that fashola is a SAN. Do you know the meaning of SAN at all? Dimwitted Yoruba men!!

RoadStar:
Who are you trying to deceive?
Give me source jare !

I guess you have now confirmed that you and your fashola guy are the illiterates. Demented nitwit!!

RoadStar:
Even if Fashola has run against Obi he would've lost.
Obi is exactly what Anambra people want( An Ojukwu annointed[i] barely educated trader) ![/i]Lets put it this way
Anambra will always have the Obis as governor while lagos will always have Fashola.
Why do you think lagos turned out to be a mega-city while Anambra is one big village.

From your imbeci.llic rantings, I will make bold to say that your are a stark illiterate.
It is obvious that you dont know Peter Obi, and that might be the reason why you called him a mere trader. However, I must tell you that the CV of your Fashola cant be compared with that of Peter Obi.
Below is the qualifications of peter Obi. you might even provide that of Fashola so that Nigerian can make their judgements.

Ijele-igbo:
Its a pity peter obi will rule Anambra state for eight years. I weep for Anambra state because its beginning of downfall has just begun. Hundred of thousands of Anambarians came out to vote for the man that will be their leader but they couldn't vote because their names were not found in INEC BOOK UNDER PETER OBI'S REGIME. A desperate man can kill his mother to get what he wants. Peter has done a nice job. Very smart and trickish i must say, fans of peter watch your Governor bring Anambra to shambles!

Ijele, I told you right from the word go that we in Peter Obi camp will trash you all mercillessly at the polls.
My friend, cry no more and join the winning party immediately.

It is obvious that you are psychotic bastard . Infact, you deserve zero attention.

Finally, Anambrarians have honored Ojukwu's last wish. For the upteenth time, they have declared that Ojukwu is their Igbo leader,that where ever he goes, they will go.
Congrats Governor Peter Obi!!

Rooneyboy:
Ngige is the best man for the crown

hahahhahahahahaha!! Anambrarians have rejected Ngige, the Okija Shrine master.

Peter Obi is leading in most of the LGAs.

George_D:
someone should correct me if i'm wrong but is pert obi really interested in a second term? why i'm asking is because i never saw him campaign much during the run for saturday's election.

Are you on something?
