Will u hush and stop d empty noise! You are making claims when u know jackshit! I hope you're aware there's another pending matter against GTB by same Innoson at the Supreme Court over 14bn and he has already won at the high court n court of appeal? I wonder what you will claim next if the judgment eventually goes in his favour! Nonsense!

ChristianNorth:
If GTB can't pay 8.8 billion Naira, I wonder what they would do if Innoson finally wins the 14 billion criminal suits filed against them.

They already won at the FHC and Appeal Court.

The People’s Democratic Party, PDP, in Akwa Ibom state has enjoined the outgoing senator representing Akwa Ibom North West Senatorial district, Chief Godswill Akpabio, to borrow a leaf from the biblical King Nebuchadnezzar by re-examining himself, purging himself of pride and coming back to the Almighty who is the only God.

In a statement entitled: ‘The Lamentations of Godswill Akpabio: The Locus Classicus for Selective Amnesia’ signed by the party’s publicity secretary, Ini Ememobong, and issued to journalists in Uyo on Friday, the party said it would not pity the disgraceful defeat the Senator suffered at the just-concluded polls, insisting that his ordeal was self-inflicted.

The party added that Akpabio’s defeat was not only because he defected to the All Progressives Congress, APC, but because he exalted himself as a god, claiming that he would win elections in the state within three hours.





The party further stated that the Akwa Ibom people perceived such statement as a slap on their sensibilities and decided to respond through the ballot.



The statement read in part, “In all, while we understand the emotional trauma that has befallen outgoing Senator Akpabio, we cannot sympathize with him, because his situation is self-inflicted and can only be cured by deep introspection and self-purge, not self-pity, deceit and delusion.

“He should learn from the biblical character Nebuchadnezzar, who when he found himself where Akpabio has placed himself, humbled himself and sincerely sought the face of the Lord and turned from his past ways.”

Irked by the recent statement by Senator Akpabio, in an interview, that he (Akpabio) ‘never played God’, the PDP publicity secretary said, “How can he say he didn’t play God, when he travelled all the way from his local government area and went to Nsit Ubium to declare that Onofiok Luke will not win elections and nothing can change it. Was that not playing God, or will he also deny that he said that? Or will he deny the Warsaw statement and Federal might boasts? Or was the promise to deliver Akwa Ibom to the President in three hours, not a sign of a Superman, desiring deification?”

“Now to the issues raised by him, wherein our party, the Peoples Democratic Party that made Chief Godswill Akpabio all he lays claim today, the party that made available its winning machine for Chief Akpabio. That same party that gave his name instant recognition, by granting clearance for the then Governor Obong Victor Attah to appoint him as a Commissioner, from where he became who he was before he, with his hands, signed and collected his certificate of retirement from his people.

“That is the party, that he takes the delight in abusing with reckless abandon, yet he demands loyalty or better put slavish followership from people whom he merely supported during his administration. What else can be the best example of hypocrisy. He mentioned the many things he did for the Christian community and superficial display of Christianity as a basis to why he couldn’t play God. This claim can only deceive readers who do not know Chief Akpabio, but the Bible has a reply for him in 1 Sam. 15: 22-23. He derided the Clergymen who dined with him for eight years but later prayed against him. In reply, we remind him that the same Prophets who crowned Kings of old, were the same channel used to dethrone them. Chief Akpabio should bother less about the channels and bother more about the source(God).

“We enjoin him to accept his dethronement as an act of God. Playing God isn’t just about words, it’s also about actions.”

The PDP also claimed to have observed Senator Akpabio’s absence at sittings of the Senate since he lost elections, urging him to maximise the little time left in the eight Senate and represent his constituents well.

“Finally, he should at least try to exercise the current Senatorial mandate till it expires; we do not see him at sittings of the Senate since he lost elections. He has by his actions robbed his constituents the right to be heard on the critical issues currently being discussed at Senate. Senator Akpabio should sincerely assess his performance as a Senator and determine whether he was deserving of a second term,” Ememobong averred.

Hehehe

Which Omo-Agege? D one wey Court of Appeal don sack comot? Ok na!

Prompto:
Same reason clowns like you tolerated the inglorious locust 16 years of the PDP

Don't forget that quite a number of the players during the PDP era are still very prominent in the APC. How come they are more acceptable to you now? Mere change of name? You never start

Prompto:
Same reason clowns like you tolerated the inglorious locust 16 years of the PDP

You know an idiot when one decides to throw insults unprovoked. Cane ur lane and quit the fake drugs please.

Shuku0kukobambi:
He had reason to blame the PDP the last 4 years. He doesn't have that luxury anymore.

Whatever goes wrong from may 29 2019, including any mess at the NASS will strictly be his responsibility. Even if he thinks it's Dino that'll help him achieve his agenda, then he must come out and work for it because there'll not be any acceptable excuse again

So his other excuses were acceptable before? Y'all are really accommodating, understanding and forgiving! Over nice sef join dey do una. How come it wasn't available for the Southern Christian from a so called minority tribe? Una well done!

IamD18:
Only the guilty will be scared of soldiers doing their work.

What is the work of soldiers during an oil spill? In the event if peaceful protests what exactly is the role soldiers are supposed to play? Are they now responsible for internal and community policing?

emmykk:
The Judiciary is the problems of Nigeria.... They failed to lay Judgement on this matter until after election

The constitution provides a time frame within which pre-election matters must he heard and determined and the the court's judgment was given well within that time. You should blame APC that cannot obey simple court orders and then expect to benefit from its disobedience. APC is squarely responsible for the problems it has, simple!

The great Jagaban! Continue to teach dem o jare! Is it after sharing bullion van funds you will not be allowed to arrange the area for maximum return in investments? What were they thinking? Everybody should relax because the Jagaban of Bourdillon himself is in charge!

For those that can't stay in topic but will continually involve Igbos in yoruba matters, what is your aim in life?

positivelord:
I thought one agbaya Governor said,the appeal court judgement did not tamper anything..politicians are very funny peep aswear

Mumu PDP they won't claim rigging in sokoto state election now.

Have u heard anyone complaining of Plateau? Even Sokoto clearly shows there was some manipulation but not enough to upturn the popular will of the people!

BuhariAdvocate:
Nobody will take you serious man, you're not real Oba and you shouldn't expect respect from any quarter.

No one says they are real, coronated Obas. However it is normal for people to have a rallying point outside their ancestral homes and it is only proper that they be respected because they also serve as contact points between other leaders and their indigenes outside this places of origin.

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!

Oba of Yoruba in Sokoto, Abdulfatai Coker, has said that the Yoruba monarchs in the Northern part of the country should be appreciated and respected for sustaining the culture and tradition of the Yoruba in the region.

Coker, who was installed as the Sarkin Yoruba in Sokoto by the Sultan of Sokoto, Sa’ad Abubakar, in February, 2016, however, noted that Yoruba monarchs in the North were often relegated by visiting political leaders from the South-West.

Speaking to Sunday PUNCH in Sokoto on Friday, the Sarkin contended that his counterparts from other tribes were accorded due respect and honour by their political leaders whenever they visited the North for political rallies and other engagements.

He added that his roles as a Yoruba Oba in the North include mediating in conflicts and preventing crisis as well as mobilising his people and encouraging them to perform various political and civic responsibilities.

Asked what roles the Yoruba monarchs in the region played whenever political leaders from the South-West visited their state, Coker said, “We don’t get to play any significant role because they do not recognise us or appreciate our contributions.”

He added, “We don’t get the due respect and recognition especially from visiting Yoruba politicians. Recently, the All Progressives Congress leader, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, was in the state and I was introduced to him as the Sarkin Yoruba in Sokoto, he just looked away.”

Asking for a friend...
All dis one wey una dey make noise so,I hope say future judgements no go cut una and una dancing hero joy short?
I pray it doesn't because I don't want to see anybody coming here to sing any Okoye and the wailers song later o..

What is your point? Is it that nobody should celebrate any victory? Every step matters, I don't know why a lot of u have been going around giving your silly ideas of warnings about celebrating a clear victory. Is it out of pain or what really?

MajorJeffery:
Somebody please paste that GEJ's prophetic quote here. The man said that as if he knew what was coming.
Bad leadership always hit harder on those who support it. Today, they are crying while Bayelsans roast, eat their fishes, drink their ogogoro and sleep in peace.

APC don gree Bayelsa people sleep for election time? The devilish party always comes with violence to force itself down people's throats!
