Governorship and other state primaries take place in each state. The PDP had their governorship primaries in each state. It is the presidential primary that will take place at the Eagle Square.

Why is there a Primary when only 1 person picked the form?

2023 Elections: Simon Ekpa mocks Enyinnaya Abaribe and Rochas Okorocha. Insists that there will be no elections in Biafra.

Simon Ekpa @simon_ekpa

I read Sen. Abaribe’s lamentation about jamboree primaries. When we were telling them about Nig, they say we should follow it politically. Today, Abaribe cried. Please, tell Abaribe not to waste his time, there will be no Nig election in Biafraland except referendum. It is a task

Simon Ekpa @simon_ekpa

Those of you wasting your money, your time, & risking your own life in the name of Nig election, you should know that this time around, we are in new dimension. We will collectively make sure no election will take place in Biafraland in 2023

Simon Ekpa @simon_ekpa

I hope the politicians from Biafraland are watching how the Fulani are dealing with Rochas? He is corrupt, agreed. He grow up in the North & speak their language, agreed. He sees himself as privileged Igboman with Caliphate connection, agreed. However, blood is thicker than water

They are giving him the South East “dot in a circle” treatment. 100million Presidential form gone, humiliated, reduced to zero & by the way, watch us this evening as we analyse the caricature video from his home, I can’t wait to analyse the video this evening.

So, finally, serve the zoo and come back in shame. WE MOVE!

Politics › Peter Obi Condemns Killings In South-East Nigeria by naptu2(op): 4:00pm On May 25, 2022
Peter Obi @PeterObi

I am highly disturbed by the increasing horrific killings in south-eastern Nigeria, especially the recent beheading of a State legislator and the callous murder of a pregnant woman and her four children in Anambra State.

These violent and abhorrent killings are damnable and unacceptable! Our communities are crumbling before us, and our humanity is being diminished.

I send my deepest condolences to the families of the deceased and urge all stakeholders, including affected communities, security agencies, traditional rulers and government at all levels, to work collectively to restore the peace that once reigned.

Families of the deceased deserve justice, and that can only be served when the perpetrators of these wicked acts are arrested and made to face the full wrath of the law. I indeed count on our security agencies to deliver on this and other aspects of the rule of law.

Nothing can be achieved with festering insecurity. Diametric security remains the bedrock of peaceful nations and thriving democracies. As we advance, proactive security will be crucial in regaining control of our communities.

Government, for its part, must meet its responsibility to protect its citizens. -PO

Gov Soludo condemns killing of woman, children, assures justice

NEWS AGENCY OF NIGERIA
May 25, 2022 6:11 AM


Gov Chukwuma Soludo of Anambra has described the May 20 killing of a woman and her four children by yet to be identified assailants as “barbaric and unacceptable”.

Soludo, in a Statement signed by Mr Christian Aburime, his Chief Press Secretary on Tuesday vowed to fish out the perpetrators and ensured they were dealt with according to law.

He said that all law-abiding Nigerians, irrespective of tribe or religion, were entitled to reside and or do business in any part of the country, including the Southeast and in Anambra without fear of unlawful harassment, molestation or attack of any kind, under any guise by anyone or group.

He said “no group or Nigerian is justified to harass, attack or kill any citizen of Nigeria or anyone resident in Nigeria under any guise whatsoever unless in lawful execution of a court sentence.

“Perpetrators of these heinous atrocities and their sponsors are testing the resolve of the Government and people of Anambra State, but I assure you that efforts are underway to fish out and bring to justice whoever is behind the criminal activities.

“All Nigerians living or doing business in Anambra are assured, of the resolve of the State government to ensure adequate protection of their lives and properties at all times,” he stated.

A tech entrepreneur in the UK bought an old plane and decided to convert it into his office. There were traffic jams as the plane was being towed to the office location, but the truck and plane had police motorcycle escort to clear the way for them. At a point the plane got stuck because of a "Give Way" traffic sign.

Here is a video of the plane being towed round a roundabout.

(Many people have bought old planes and converted them into offices, houses, restaurants and other such facilities).

When u said Nigeria isn't the only place where planes are towed on highways, i was hoping to see England , USA, canada, etc & not india ..
Good God in heaven! So what you are trying to tell me is that China, India, Singapore are not other parts of the world or that they do not exist?

OK, here is an example from California. A plane that was being towed on a California highway tipped over and fell on the median.

Some people are still not going to read the posts or watch the video. They will simply react to the headline.

Something similar happened in 2013.

There's a place at the Murtala Muhammed Airport that is known as the Airplane Graveyard. That is where planes were abandoned for many years. FAAN gave the owners of the abandoned planes a deadline to remove them. The owners of one of the disused planes sold it to Captain Ekeinde (Omotola's husband) who wanted to start an aviation school in Badagry. The plane was being towed to Badagry when the tow truck developed a fault near a petrol station in Igando. A rumour immediately spread that a plane had crashed in Igando. I had to post a correction on the Nairaland thread.

https://www.nairaland.com/1323061/scrap-plane-spotted-fuel-station-igando

A plane was being towed on a Lagos road a few years later and there was another rumour of a plane crash. Some people on that thread said that it was only in Nigeria that a plane could be towed on an expressway and I showed them that it happens around the world (for example, a plane that was being towed in India got stuck beneath a bridge).

Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria @FAAN_Official

The Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria would like to inform the general public to disregard the news making the rounds on social media about an alleged crash at Ikeja Airport.

The aircraft was sold by the owner to a buyer, who was taking it to its final destination.
