oshomole has already Derek obaseki and obaseki can't breath again.
Because NEC don't conduct screening, is NWC that screen candidate.
Ingrate obaseki should go back to school and error for GCE and jamb for proper admission into uniben

Kennyprince:

Efe234:
explain why before you disagree with someone else

One4me:
I am certain you did not read the thread otherwise you wont think it was PDP that was discussing his matter.

If l ask you now, What is the Position of Oshiomole in APC and Who heads the party's NEC, you will yarn rubbish.

One4me:
Same Obaseki told President Buhari he has done over 300,000 tests and the State is safe!
Same Obaseki using fake Ceritifcates?
https://www.nairaland.com/5914288/pressure-mounts-apc-disqualify-obaseki
Las las, he will be disqualified by his party so that they dont repeat the Zamfara and Bayelsa problem



All these certificate Forgers trying to rule us by force sef!

One4me:
You are right, they are as desperate as their Obaseki, l hope they too wont start running to Lagos, like Obaseki, to 'Doballe' for Tinubu

obinoral1179:
they must an exception to this rule because APC don't have a proper board of trustees... So the rule might not stand..

Benwallt:
It will get to a point that Obaseki will just walk away by himself. As it is now they give him the load that is not his own. If he gets overwhelmed he will be dead politically and Oshiobaba will gladly sweep his ashes away

youthofnaija:
Please read through the attached image again. APC national chairman and NWC are not in charge of the selection.

pineed:
Reasonable folks, can you guys stop wasting precious time rsponding to moderatedguy & jaxxy.

They're not naive, they're just hell-bent.

tope777:
Direct Vs Indirect Primary.

Direct Primary = 1No of election in all wards.(Not for delegates but General party members)
Indirect primary = 2Nos of elections: a)election in all wards to elect delegates.
b) Election among delegates to choose the candidate.( Delegates would be Commissioners, LGA chairmen, all government apponintee)

Indirect election is more complicated, it will exposed people to COVID-19 .

Direct is more democratic.

Direct Primary is the best.

One4me:
Certainly, Oshiomole will never distrupt the election that he is the one organising, only Obaseki the loser can attempt that.

By the way, is Obaseki going to arrest Oshiomole by himself or he will use the Police?
Who will the Police listen to, Obaseki or their C.P?
Who will the CP listen to, Obaseki or his IGP.

Oshiomole is operating at a National level, just like the IGP.
I am sure yo get my point but if you dont, your middle name na Obaseki.

One4me:
Just dey watch, e go do you like Nollywood.
INEC is a federal body and it has contitutional authority to organise election anywhere in Nigeria and it will be supervising this one.
Obaseki will be placed on house arrest if he tries nonsense, las las Fed Govt wil conduct the elections under a State of Emergency, if he tries to stop the elections. Under that circumstance, his immunity is removed and he cant control federal Security Agencies.
Dont forget that the IGP has control over the CP in Edo State, IGP is selected by the President and the President is a member of oshiomole's APC.

Tareq1105:
You guys are ignorant of the meaning of Direct primaries.

Those parties that opted for Indirect primaries, are they not going to conduct Ward Congress in all the 198 wards to elect delegates for the Indirect primary?

Where's the place of Covid 19 here?

After that, the about 10,000 delegates will have to converge at another date to elect the candidate.

Also, where's the place of Covid 19 here?

At that stage, Special Advisers, Commissioners, Personal Assistants to the governor will definitely vote for their Principal thereby giving advantage to the incumbent.

If you can think well, you will realize that Direct primaries is better. Equal chances to all. It's the fairest method.

destinychildolu:
Apart from pdp, all other parties won't have up to 100 delegates. That makes sense than having 3000 plus in a single venue traveling long distances. Which one do you think is safer? 300 plus in different wards or 3000 in a single venue? Be truthful?

ddippset:
Contrary to popular beliefs,
Direct primary is even more favourable at this covid 19 times.

For Direct primary people just gather at their wards and vote for their flag nearer. And it's done!


But for Indirect primary, people firstly gather at the wards to vote delegates. These delegates in their thousands then gather at the stadium to vote the flag bearer.


With regards to the issue of covid 19, direct is better.

ABUJA: The national leadership of the All Progressives Congress APC has set up a committee to screen its six governorship aspirants in Edo state, declaring that without prejudice to the work of the committee and that of the Screening Appeals Panel, the National Working Committee NWC has the final say with regards to the fate of the aspirants.

According to the party, the screening and appeals committees which consist of academics, lawyers and politicians would help to forestall a repeat of the Bayelsa experience where it lost its mandate due to alleged discrepancies in the certificates of the party’s deputy governorship candidate.

Inaugurating both committees on Tuesday at the party’s National secretariat in Abuja, its National Chairman, Comrade Adams Oshiomhole said while the screening committee would act as the High Court, the appeals committee as the appellate court, the NWC would act as the Supreme Court.

He said; “the NWC can reject the screening result. Screening committee is High Court, Appeal Committee, Appeal Court and the NWC, the Supreme Court.”

Oshiomhole again expressed misgivings at the Supreme Court judgment which disqualified the APC deputy governorship candidate for Bayelsa after having been sworn in as a Senator of the federal republic.

According to him, the Bayelsa experience was partly responsible for the decision of the party hierarchy to display the credentials of all the aspirants at the national Secretariat so that people can file in their claims and objections to assist the committees.

“After intensive consultations, we decided to have people who in our own judgment are sound and when they go through this process, their recommendations will be very helpful. Under our rules, we are expected to set up a screening committee before every election.

“The responsibility of the screening committee is to interact with all those who have aspirations to contest, strictly speaking, not yet aspirants. You become an aspirant after the screening committee has passed you.

If anybody is dissatisfied with the screening committee’s recommendation, he/she will file an appeal and it will be forwarded to the Appeals Committee and after that, they will make a final recommendation to the National Working Committee NWC that has the final decision as to who is eligible or who is not eligible.

“In the past, we have always performed this role but may be we did not give it the appropriate weight. Maybe we had assumed that people who want to aspire to certain offices particularly high elective offices of executive governor, we expected that no one would submit documents containing information that may possibly lead to disqualification. In the past, this was more of a formality but with what happened to us in Bayelsa state earlier this year, we decided to approach the issue of screening much more seriously than ever before.

“I want to encourage you to take this exercise very seriously. I am sure you can only imagine how we felt as a party when after we had won an election, there were no questions, in fact it was the best election ever conducted in Bayelsa State. No violence, people voted but we lost it because the deputy governor according to the Supreme Court had contradictions in his documents and so we lost it.

“So, the screening is not a formality and we expect you to be very meticulous in every material particular to protect our party so that let it not be said that we did not learn anything from Bayelsa. As you know sometimes when things go wrong, everybody sees it that NWC did not do a thorough job. So people personalise it saying, if the chairman was thorough, if he had done his job this will not happen but that is the price of leadership.

. Osu, na forgie forgie cert he get o. U no dey read ni

ORIENTATION101:
liar where is the link to your source.

Like UI gave admission to 3 credit instead of constitutional five.
He finished a four years course in 3 years

EcoBrick:
Obaseki really messed himself up. I wonder who advised him to fight dirty with Oshiomhole even before securing a second term. Now even Buhari and his fellow governors may not be able to save him if this allegation turns out to be true.

paix:
Go ahead and tell us the kind of fruit that you are.
