Politics › People Worth Recognizing In Election 2019 by MetaPhysical(op): 12:46am On Mar 26, 2019
I start with the election regulation boss himself Prof. Mahmood Yakubu. INEC had a very heavy task on its lap and it delivered successfully with a level of satisfaction never before recorded for the commission. It can do better in future elections, hoping "lessons learnt" from 2019 become key improvement inputs for 2023.

BIG THANKS to Prof Yakubu and his Team at INEC!


Next is Minister Lai Mohammed. Alhaji Mohammed is now the head of APC party structure in Kwara State. He was instrumental in aligning the O to Gee movement into the opposition and forcing a displacement of the Saraki structure in Abuja, Ilorin and handing Saraki a sounding defeat even in his own electoral unit and the wider Senatorial constituency thus killing the erstwhile griphold he had on Kwara.

Thumbs up for Minister Lai Mohammed, the Liberator of Kwara!


My dear Governor, Akinwunmi Ambode must be recognized. He was scorned, he was ridiculed publicly, he was humiliated, he was even threatened with impeachment....yet he remained humbled and restraint. He could have pulled the Amosun trick in Lagos but instead rallied his supporters behind the party's choice.
Even President Buhari was impressed and using him as his poster boy announced to Governors to use Ambode as model of a party loyalist.

Big SHOUTOUT to Ambode of Lagos, a Ministerial candidate on the NextLevel!

For d Islamization u mentioned, we've all be hearing abt it for yrs nw, its jst political gimmicks of the politicians to create tensions. Quote me, Islamization cannot happen nt in dis country...las las d country go split nii.

I think its high time we stop draggin religion into politics... and stop creating unnecessary post dat wont av any effect on d change we clamour for..'
The ones making noise about it will be most adversely impacted if APC decides to institutionalize what they demand.

Kaduna, a NW state, has had Christian Governor and Deputy Governnor.

Yobe, a NE state, has had Christian Governor and Deputy.

Several states in NC, SW, have had Christian Governor and Deputy.

SS and SE have always been governed by Christians. This is where the noise for balance comes from. So an institutionalized balance will transform religion in their zones in ways they have not imagined. The competition for power will heat up differences along religious line and their muslim candidates will start reaching to muslim populations in North, West for sponsorship and support. SS/SE is not Islamized now but it could if the changes they demand is made into law.

My advice to them...

What's stopping APC from ensuring that religious equity is also applied in this context of NASS leadership ?
God is the only self-subsisting, no pair!
Everything else need a paired opposite to grow and better itself. From the smallest microbe at the bottom of natural order to mankind who God put at the head of everything in nature, nothing in life can make a progress unless it works in conjunction with something else to derive value for living.

Humans designed the systems that aid social evolution. We installed the order of paired opposite into systems and locked their functionality to its arrangement.

In democracy, a ruling side and an opposition side is a paired opposite and when functionally in orbit they can yield fruits of progress for society.

We need the ruling party and opposition party to work together and improve society.

The pair of Muslim/Christian in leadership is really a false pair because Islam and Christianity are same faith. Only practitioners of Spiritual beliefs have claims of marginalization and can demand redress.

When responding on a political hotpoint such as religion and ethno divides you should frame your points with a background, whether historical, political or socio-cultural.

Yoruba are in good stand, no shaking, and your observation is not far from the truth. What you omitted to mention is that from a political and historical background Yoruba is the only ethnic group in Nigeria that have mastered the disciplines of opposition politics. As a ruling class we have been there and seen the other side of what it means to be in opposition and we are equipped beyond any other ethnic to play roles in both sides of the equation. We are not threatened by loss of power or loss of opposition, unlike many of you other ethnics in South afraid to be in opposition government.

In fact your 4yrs from 2015 to 2019 was spent opposing Yoruba instead of opposing government. You went into 2019 election behind Atiku and with determination to defeat Yoruba as a reprisal for Jonathan loss. Yoruba is not Nigeria abeg. You have lost, accept your loss and get in opposition with the government in center. Yoruba owe you zero allegiance!

I saw a thread on the front page where Buhari is pushing for Lawal and Femi Gbajabiamila as Senate President and the Speaker respectively.

We all know that APC is a sectional party who see it as a taboo to run an inclusive government that's why they have excluded the two regions they see as threat in their National Assembly Leadership despite contributing little to their success.

My question is, what happened to religious tolerance and accommodation ?
How can we live in a country that is 50/50 Christians and Muslims yet Muslims want to take it all.. ?
Nobody should call me a bigot because if it's the other way round, Prof Akintola of MURIC who speaks for Nigerian Muslims would have released a press statement by threatening people up and down like he does..

A President... Muslim
Chief Justice of Federation... Muslim
Proposed Senate President... Muslim
Proposed Speaker of Reps.. Muslim

Is Nigeria an Islamic country or is Islamization of Nigeria in progress ? (Always remember a country called Turkey)

And to those Christians that voted for APC, is this the type of government that you want to see in this country ?
SE and SS people that voted for APC, is this the promise they made to you during campaign ?

After 2015 election, the presidency told us that the reason why SE or SS could not produce a Senate President or Speaker was because there was no ranking senator from those two regions (Even when we had some ranking reps in APC then but they were not loud )... What happened now we have ranking APC senators from these two regions ?

APC should not be too confident because If care is not taken, What happened in June 2015 might repeat itself again (Saraki and Dogara factor) ...

The presidency should stop provoking people unnecessarily with this their archaic style of leadership.
Buhari should not start what he cannot finish.
Nice input. On what statute of law are you basing your argument?

I'm an ardent supporter of PDP but I think kwankwaso/Abba gida loosing kano will benefit the south. Kwankwaso is the only candidate that can defeat Tinubu/osibanjo in 2023. Loosing kano will weaken kwankwaso
Kwankwaso was defeated by Tinubu in APC primary in 2014. Kwankwaso was defeated by Atiku in PDP primary in 2018. He came fourth.

How do you see Kwankwaso winning Kano and then jumping to defeat Tinubu in 2023?

Doesnt he have to win PDP primary first? Atiku is there, Saraki wants it, Tambuwal wants it too.

your reasoning is terrible, when the igbos own at least 15% of every state in Nigeria make millions from all over the world are the richest black people per capita the world over etc etc you are here shifting goal post, for your information ask any man that understands the Igbo man and he will tell you that an average Igbo man does not need electoral positions in Nigeria. n, an Igbo boy will build roadssl in his village and put street light. Hey travel and see, the muds are in your places not in Igbo land so keep on deluding your self until they buy your sango and IFA shrine
You can't reason properly as ewedu oil has rendered your stupid brains uselees,
Remember this in future if you can, the igbos are the only free people in Nigeria. They live where they like, and they truly do not need Nigeria. Rememember when the the country was sold after the war and the Igbo man's money taken from him so that he could not partake,now where do we have almajiris ? Now where do we have omonile that have sold everything salable to the igbos, your emptiness made you think that Nigeria political post is worth a sh**t. We make our money and we wait on Biafra
The bold caught my eye. The Igbo problem in Nigeria cannot be solved with migration spread, it cannot be solved with containers sitting at the port, it cannot be solved by ownership of properties, it cannot be solved by wealth.....the single instrument you need for solution is political and you dismiss as irrelevant to your ambition. The political holes you leave unfilled will be occupied by the ones holding you captive. Have you ever thought on the possibility that the permissive environment that sustains your successes in economy and migration could indeed be the design to distract your political capacity? I noticed others care less if a million of you resettle in their land and own half the land, it does not bother them if you own all the markets but the moment you express interest in politics they let all hell loose on your population. It looks like you are just where they want you...locked out of political power! Give me your thoughts.

Brexit isn't about freedom... European union (i mean the rest of the countries in EU) benefits from United Kingdom and United Kingdom benefit from them as well... This is more like a mutual benefit...

People only clamor for freedom when they are in slavery. In the case of Brexit. It's more like a divorce

Brexit is more like a contract termination and you know contracts are bounded by agreements..

Even the case of Biafra can not be likened to that of the United Kingdom because every nation in the UK are bounded by an act that is boldly represented in the constitution therefore can be separated by same act in the constitution...

In the case of biafra there is no constitution binding the regions... Our constitution was created after the amalgamation in 1914... So we started as a sovereign state together. The major issue now is simply because none of the regions exhibit total sovereignty before amalgamation. This is the major reason while any advocacy for a breakup can be treated as treasonous by the federal government
I agree and like your intelligent clarification on the subject. Im curious about the bolded.

Define sovereingty in the sense you presented and fitted it in here.

Politics › Re: Who Was The Biggest Loser Of This Just Concluded 2019 General Election? by MetaPhysical: 3:27pm On Mar 25, 2019
Atiku has always lost. So this defeat is not a loss to him but a confirmation. He should not have been inserted in the list.

Tinubu has never lost, he continues to win and that's a confirmation. He should not have been in the list.

Saraki is a self-destructive loser; has never lost a political battle but he lost everything now. He lost the PDP campaign to opposition, he lost his own Senatorial incumbency to opposition, he lost the governorship sponsorship and that of another Senator to opposition, he also lost significant seats in Kwara House of Assembly to opposition.

Ajimobi is a foolish looser. He beat the myth of single term and is on record as only governor to successfully complete two terms in Oyo. He was a Senator, went to government house for two terms, his plan to return to Senate was defeated. He lost all his sponsored candidates and the state to opposition. He had all the ducks lined up in a row for him to become a political jagaban and help steer Oyo into a renaissance of political leadership in Yorubaland....particularly in the candidature of his surrogate, Adelabu, but he instead brought out his shotgun and shot each duck and threw them away. When he needed fat to feed on, no duck was alive to save him. Very foolish politician.


Ibikunle Amosun is a wise but scorned loser. He served two terms. As the Executive of the State with highest IGR behind Lagos State, Amosun is in a class above ordinary governors in the remaining 34 states; they are below par to Ogun State in economic successes and political value. Amosun knew this and uses the special class to trade privilege with Aso Rock. His profession as an accountant paid off here....but he is not as politically cunning as the master fox that now Chairs APC, nor as adept in stealth as the intriguing serpent of Bourdillon, and what he thought he knew came later to bite him. Oshiomohle and Tinubu have both succeeded and forced Buhari to concede political power to the party. This means the President remains the only person with power of policy...but all power of politics belongs to APC. Wise Amosun made the President his public friend but declared VP Osinbajo, Oshiomohle and Tinubu as his public enemies. He then floated a strategy to support his friend win election but work against his enemy by supporting their opposition at State level. Anyway, wise Amosun told others to defect but he refused to defect from APC and contested and won on its platform. So he is going to Senate. All the candidates he told to defect lost their contest to APC. Amosun lost the state and the party structure to opponents but wisely saved his own neck from drowning. Wise politician...a fox in the making.

Lagos Elders are sorry losers. No other State in this country compares or can match Lagos economically, politically, socially, culturally or productively. In fact Lagos is a competition for Nigeria, its own sovereign parent. The Elders of Lagos should be Elders to the whole country and by that I dont mean diversity in their cultural composition but rather that they should be beyond reproach. They disqualified a governor and disrupted his focus of service to the citizenry on the grounds he does not pick when they call him and when they leave message he does not call back. When there is disputes between two or more parties our legal luminaries opine that the first tier of support is mediation. In mediation conflict troubleshooting and resolution specialists are able to offer a midcourse agreeable to the sides and get a peace deal; what at first appeared irreconciliable differences often end in reconciliated outcomes. Lagos has had a mediation council as far back as mid 1700s. I wouldnt go into that history since its not relevant. So I ask, did Lagos Elders take their grievance before the Oba Council and sought intervention of our traditional rulers or did they circumvent customs and took this decision on their own whims? They were lucky...very lucky that Ambode was a humble and nice Omoluabi and was willing to concede to their authority, otherwise Lagos Elders may have risked everything with that whimsical decision and brought loss severe loss to APC in Lagos. I hope our Elders in Lagos reconcile their authority with customary principles.

helinues:
So analysis have changed on how Atiku lost the presidential elections. Pdp supporters are now questioning why the low votes in presidential elections for Pdp compared to high votes for governorship elections in Sokoto and Kano.

Me wondering if they are the same Kwankwanso and Tambuwal they are tipping for presidency in 2023 against Southern candidates .

Ayam not understanding
Its simple!

1.
99 parties were contesting for Presidential and many voters were unsure who to vote, plus many more felt dissapointed with both APC and PDP at center and either voteda third option or abstained completely.

2.
Whether we like it or not APC has succeeded in bringing us a new awareness in this country, that is politics is a local affair. With this new knowledge we witness how an all APC governed SW region demonstrated what local politics truly mean....in Ogun, Oyo, Ondo and even Osun.

So what we see in Sokoto and Kano are exact outcomes of what APC demonstrated is possible and gave to us in SW.

The question now is if the rest of the country will follow SW and NW example and begin to reward and return good governance and penalize and kick out poor performers. The lesson is, even if the center is mediocre and worthless, the grassroot must be dynamic and efficient.


3.
INEC is the best it has ever been. The issue of security and violence and thuggery are not INEC jurisdiction. INEC officials performed impressively and we should applaud them. In fact we ought to hope and pray that future elections will be carried out at this level or better. Out of 10 Id score INEC of 2019 at a 8 or 8.5.

Security dropped the ball! Out of 10 security will score 2. They dissapointed all over.

We have been doing this for exactly 20yrs now, 1999 to 2019. By now our security ought to have best practices for deterring violence and a firm resolve at enforcing law. Election is a civic duty and internal exercise. It is job of police and interior Minister to manage. FG brought out Army because it did not have faith in police and interior ministry to safeguard INEC personnel and voting materials from vandals. Yet we still had incidences with Army in attendance. So imagine what the case would have been if Army was absent. This aspect of the exercise need to go to NASS for thorough review and a better policy implemented.

Perharps INEC should have its own police force specifically for the duty of securing polling units and its procedures while the regular civil police force will be designated to ensuring public safety at polling units and on the streets generally.

Una no respect una people den una go dey cry say person no respect una. Na wa!

So yorubas form leadership of their people in other regions yet cry when Igbos have Eze ndi Igbo in other places? Bad enough they take up 'Sarkin' and drop their indigenous yoruba titles yet their fellow yorubas disregard them! Is it jealousy that Igbos respect and recognize theirs in other states?

These leaders are supposed to serve as rallying points for visitors or settlers in other parts of the country yet silly miscreants see at as a challenge to one Oba or Baale somewhere. Insecurity is bad, try and change cos no one is interested in taking your property. Live and let live, simple!
To us an Oba is a spiritual and divine title. He is the accessory between the living and the deities and is why an Oba is called Igba'keji Orisa. An Oba must perform certain sacred rituals to the four corners of the earth, to the celestial forces and the terrestrial forces. These rituals are not possible for them in Sokoto, in Kano, in Umuahia, in Enugu. An Oba can ask that Gelede come out, or Egun come out or that Oro come out in Yorubaland. These are impossible in non-Yoruba domains.
The land in Sokoto has not been sancretized as a Yorubaland therefore if an Egun comes out it has no effect.

So the people themselves know and have been told repeatedly that Yoruba will recognize a position such as Leader of Yoruba in Sokoto, Leader of Yoruba in Enugu, but no Oba outside Yorubaland....or a land over which sacred rituals have been performed and re-baptized as Yorubaland...will be recognized.

This man in Sokoto know this but they try to be like Ibos and gather together and call themselves Oba. Unacceptable. Even Ooni does not recognize them when he visits around Nigeria.

Etsu Patigi, Alhaji Ibrahim Chatta Umar has died after a brief illness.

The foremost traditional ruler in Kwara State died on Tuesday night in Abuja and would be buried in Patigi on Wednesday 20, March 2019 by 2 pm according to Islamic rites.

Meanwhile, the Emir of Ilorin and Chairman Kwara state Traditional Council, Alhaji (Dr) Ibrahim Sulu-Gambari, has expressed deep shock over the death of the Etsu Patigi, Alhaji Ibrahim Chatta Umar.


Alhaji Sulu-Gambari said the late Etsu Patigi was a true epitome of peace and symbol of unity to the entire Nupe speaking tribes in Kwara State and beyond stressing that his death will no doubt create a wide vacuum which cannot be forgotten so soon.

He further noted that late Etsu Chatta Umar was until his death the Vice Chairman of the Kwara State traditional council and has used his wealth of experience to promote the council through his numerous outstanding contributions.

“I received the news of his death with crude shock. Etsu Chatta Umar was a peace-loving monarch whose penchant growth and development of the emirate and state at large know no bound. We will surely miss him.

“I pray that Almighty Allah will forgive his shortcomings, admit him into al-janatul firdaos and give the family and the entire people of Patigi Emirate Council the fortitude to bear the great loss”, he added.

What we are seeing is a pattern, as you mentioned with Metuh, but spread across different areas of social relations.

I believe SE has boxed itself in, psychologically and politically, as a victim of social injustice. Moreso, SE fears Yorubas more than it fears Hausa/Fulani.

Ibos love Abuja which is North, but there is nothing in North that SE considers indispensable. If Abuja disappears today Ibo will survive. They cannot say the same about Lagos. If Lagos disappears situation in SE and amongst Ibos will be worse than the case of Somalia with many villages ruled by different warlords and no central authority or social order. On the flip side SE has zero benefit or desire for Yorubas. The success or failure of Ibo is immaterial to a Yoruba. Therefore the wsh, desire and ambition of every Ibo is to own and have in their posession what belongs to Yoruba. This imbalance in national equity and social arrangement is a deep pain for the Ibo and he expresses his pain outwardly by showing frustration , working and wishing for Yoruba to fail in everything. If Yoruba fails maybe Ibo can get the upper hand.

Since Yoruba is not failing they devised another method, which is to herald Ibo successes far above and beyond its merit hoping no one else in Yorubaland can match that level.

This spirit of victimization and the race to surpass Yoruba is what makes people like the OP rush to find news of Ibo success to show the rest of us that Ibo is doing better than Yoruba. In doing so they embellish and exagerrate far beyond the truth. They dont mind to find an Hausa/Fulani thats better than Ibo...they hate it when its Yoruba, which almost everytime is the result.

I wish I had a way beforehand, I would have advised the OP to hold off on this ad for Ikpeazu and not shame the brilliant lawyer unecessarily when Supreme Court announces final judgement.

Chukazu:
Why must you single out one out of the league of Lawyers who decided on side of truth?
You will end up creating enmity for him and sentiment overall
These guys are quick to jump the gun and only to regrettably complain that people hate them.

If I were making this thread I would save Ikpeazu brilliance for later on, that is after he wins in appeal court and in Supreme Court. Only then will I write this kind of credence to his name. Anything before that is risky.

What the OP wrote here is too high pedestal for Ikpeazu at this stage and we only hope he wins the next two stages of the battle, otherwise it will be a very dissapointing failure and another regrettable and bitter complain of how Nigeria hates Igbo.

The OPs submission has been copied for revisit after final decision at Supreme Court.
