These are all ebonyi people being used by another ebonyi man called Simon ekpa to cause tension in SE. Ebonyi people are not igbos but they are disturbing the peace of SE

Unfortunate goat, you and that idiot named Ebube are naturally useless to humanity. Use your family members as an example to define inferior Igbos as people who migrated from Guinea. Onye oshi

Ebubu6:
Ebonyi have done their own
Enugu have done their own

Anambra state should do better

Ebonyi is not part of Biafra land. Stay away from Ebonyi or die

You are an idiot masquerading as Ebonyi indigene. Whether Biafra or not, go and fight your traducers with your family members.

Grgt0n:
Ipob terrorists caught in Abakaliki. Ebonyi is known for breeding ipob terrorists because of high illiteracy and poverty in ebonyi state. Most of the attacks in other SE states are done by willing manpower from ebonyi state who are ever will to join ipob. The leader of ipob is one Simon Ella from ebonyi state. He has been recruiting people from ebonyi state to invade other SE states to enforce sit at home.

Almost all the ipob terrorists caught in Anambra, Enugu and Imo are mostly people from ebonyi state

You brought a picture of criminals arrested in other states and term it Ebonyi state. Go and fight one on one with that Ebube of a guy and stop dragging the entire Ebonyi people into your protracted madness.

Jobless Nairaland junkie.

Is that woman part of the unknown gun men?

Something is not clearer.

Ebubu6:
how do u know am from Yoruba. If I show you my Ohaukwu NIN will you believe?

That's not a proof of authenticity. Nigereians equally have NIN from local govts in Sokoto.

Jcoleworld911:
Please the imbeci1$ is not a yoruba, he’s one ekuke from Ebonyi state who’s inferiority complex is in another level

Just ignore him

He is not from Ebonyi. That idiot is from Yoruba residing in Ebonyi.

ALEX OTTI IS PLAYING WITH FIRE!

By

JESUTEGA ONOKPASA.

A picture is currently circulating of Abia State Governor, Alex Otti, addressing a group of people with his portrait on the wall behind him, where it should be by order of protocol, but an empty space where that of President Bola Tinubu should be by virtue of that same protocol.

It is being flaunted by those adamant on not acknowledging President Tinubu "as their President", whatever they might think such utter nonsense might really amount to, and of course condemned by those who see it for the dangerous development it actually is.

That Mr Otti has refused to place President Bola Tinubu's portrait on his office wall is, of course, not at all a simple matter of a Governor having a choice whether to do so or not.

It is a different kettle of fish altogether if someone like vote wasting phenomenon, Sarah Omakwu, keeps pouting nonstop never to "recognize" President Tinubu as her President - she is, at the end of the day, just another private citizen, just as entitled to her rights as to her delusions.

Mr Otti, on the other hand, is the Governor of a state comprising one of the federating units of this country and he is most certainly not at liberty to ventilate his political grievances as some schizophrenic bigot or hysterical tribalist might be inclined to.

What he has done by thus undermining the President, Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces, Federal Republic of Nigeria, is not even merely condonement of REBELLION (or, in this context, SECESSION) but outright approval promotion and sponsorship of the same.

This is a very serious matter and must be taken just as seriously, for in seeking to undermine constituted authority in this most visible and crucially symbolic manner, Otti has made himself into an active participant in rebellion.

Perhaps, some might want to shrug off what Governor Otti has done as ultimately inconsequential and just some infantile excess better ignored.

Indeed, "what is the importance of a presidential portrait on a wall, anyway?" they might wonder.

Well, by that token, we might as well ask what is the importance of referring to a President as "Mr President" and maybe not as "hey you there, how far?"

For those who might be ignorant as to the significance of a mere photograph, there is a compelling reason why all over the world presidential portraits and those of other categories of heads of state are conspicuously placed in such places as post offices, train stations, banks and government buildings where they are most likely to be seen by the greatest number of citizens.

The practice is a device for asserting the authority of the state and legitimacy of the government.

It is taken so seriously, even in those jurisdictions with ceremonial heads of state, that the moment Queen Elizabeth II demised, the entire machinery of the British state immediately proceeded about replacing her portrait with that of her son who had thereupon ascended to the throne and become King of England!

Alex Otti is not the first Governor with an axe to grind with a President in this country and is not entitled to challenge our constitutional order because his tribesman lost an election.

At the height of former President Olusegun Obasanjo's wickedness against then Governor Bola Tinubu and the people of Lagos State, Asiwaju Tinubu still kept his portrait on his office wall and in all public buildings across Lagos throughout his tenure.

Former Governors Nyesom Wike and Samuel Ortom, easily former President Muhammadu Buhari's most implacable adversaries, never once took down his portrait from their offices or government buildings.

If Alex Otti says he is waiting for the courts to deliver their verdicts before recognizing President Tinubu as President of this country, then his own portrait ought not to be on his office wall, as well, since his mandate is similarly being challenged in court!

But, all of that is really beside the point; the offices of President and Governor are creations and creatures of law and the protocols pertaining thereto are not up to the whims, caprices or mere preferences of anyone, not even the occupants of those offices.

What is really happening is the latest manifestation of a poisonous dimension Peter Obi and his ulta-bigotted and rabidly ethnicist rabble are insistent on foisting on Nigerian politics.

It must be fiercely rejected and the legitimacy of state power, authoritatively asserted.

There can be no question of allowing a governor "to do what he likes with his office", for by that standard, we might as well allow Mr Otti to use his office as the staging post for high treason contrary to the Constitution of the Federal Republic.

It is clear what Otti and his co-travellers are up to in Abia; they are testing the waters and will keep escalating their excesses in geometric proportion to the extent to which the Nigerian state proves itself to be so weak as to allow them get away with them.

I cannot imagine what Alex Otti and his cohorts might have been thinking - if, indeed, he was thinking at all - when he decided upon what might seem, at face value, a most sawdust-headed stunt but is actually a clear and unambiguous challenge to the authority of the President of Nigeria.

Whatever delusions their ethnocentrism and religious intolerance might have misdirected them into, we simply cannot, as a sovereign independent country, have a situation whereby we have a President, recognized as such by, and, according to law, and yet tolerate some other authority that is similarly a creation of law to howsoever seek to detract from the authority, prestige and legitimacy of the highest office in the land.

President Bola Ahmed Tinubu is the President of Nigeria, therefore Peter Obi's President and Alex Otti's President.

Indeed, President Tinubu is Alex Otti's President where Alex Otti is not his Governor.

Bola Tinubu is also the President of absolutely every other Nigerian including the most implacable "Obidients" currently applauding Otti's unconscionable excess.

While these children of discontent and apostles of hate may elect to wallow in denial, Mr Otti is a public official, indeed an elected one like his President, Tinubu, and he will just have to place President Tinubu's portrait on his office wall and everywhere else in Abia, wherein it normally belongs, or God help him.

Less than two years from now Alex Otti will be sixty but if in his case wisdom has not come with age, then he will just have to suffer the consequence appropriate to rascals and fools.

Governor Alex Otti of Abia State is playing with fire and will soon find, the hard way, that if you play with fire, fire will burn you.

Who is this idiot on colos? Stop smoking thîefnubu's leftover cocaine for better sanity.

Did Ayo Fayose hang Buhari's portrait in his office?

igwebuike01:
Ebonyi is dead, everyday is like sit at home there. Always at the bottom in everything dragging SE backwards. You will soon be kicked out of SE

Which Ebonyi is dead? Be like say you dey on colos.

BabaRamota1980:
Anyway, Ebonyi is Igala territory carved into SE.

Stop smoking thîefnubu's leftover cocaine.😋😋

basilo102:
Nwa Abakeleke how market? We all know it's Ebonyi miscreants that cause trouble all over the East

Enyia, rest. That idiot is a yorubastard.

Ebubu7:
We’ve told you not to bring your rubbish to ebonyi state.

We’re not part of Biafra and will never be.


Ebonyi state is purely pro Nigeria.


Try and get killed

Yorubastard, you are not from Ebonyi state.

shebi na una use una own hands dey compare Anambra with Lagos whereas una use gwongworo for fire service


Anambra is greater dan Lagos in the mud

You don forget say, I been don cripple you before on this Nairaland, you ran away. Nothing concern me and Anambra state and Lagos.

as I don catch you today, next time, make noise again about Ebonyi state make ngene damage your useless life there. Yorubastard goat.

Ebubu7:
Picture attached below

You have been claiming to come from Ebonyi state, how come you weren't comparing fire trucks from Ebonyi state department of fire service with Anambra State? Rather you brought in Lagos state into the mix.

Demented yorubastard. You ended up exposing your retardéd self today.

Something i should be watching in my house live and direct. These criminals supporting the drug baron and their minions in the judiciary thwarted everything.

Now I have to rely on Nairaland for update in the tribunal proceedings.

It shall never be well with those backward idiots dragging Nigerians to the stone age.

JAMO84:
You're mad. Did I invite you to read my post?

Nairaland is not your private room where foolishness goes on unchallenged. Damned clown 🤡

A junkie on colos.

JAMO84:
PDP and LP should divest from politics and move to the skit making industry, I mean how do you explain this useless obsession with an ordinary results viewing Portal?

Hard copy of my WAEC certificate is with me, the examination body also have it on their portal, if the portal crashes and the result is no longer available there, does it mean the original hard copy I have is not relevant?


You have agents in the polling units, they were given a copy of the result, the police and the commission have there own copies, another copy was pasted on the polling units walls, none of you have been able to prove that what were later posted on the IREV were different from the copies you have except in few places. The election tribunal needs to ban those 2 miserable losers from contesting any election in this Country for 60 years.

You are outrightly senseless. You aren't even ashamed this madness is what your electoral umpire had to offer.

helinues:
If the governor of Abia state can give a filmsy excuse of not recognizing president Tinubu as Nigeria president, then FG should hold Abia state monthly allocation. You can't be getting Oyel money from a president you are not recognizing.

Let Otti demand the monthly allocation from the president he recognized

Radarada

The height of foolishness in full glare.🤣🤣🤣

This terrorist just opened a thread to hyperventilate.

Slurity:
There is no election we had in the past that there is not court case to challenge the winner. How many of those in the past was captured live? Why should this be different? Even in developed countries, did you get to see all court case proceedings of election tribunal live? the owner of the case and all well wisher can go to the court and see what they want to see themselves.

We rather should seek progress in our own lives by making unprecedented pursuit in life changing situations.

They don't do it in other climes doesn't mean we shouldn't do it here. Too many persons are interested in seeing things done differently to accommodate 21st century's standards.

Tribunal proceedings should be aired for everyone to watch. What is wrong with that? Should we always stick with the old fashioned-way of doing everything in this country?

lapintoz:
As e dey pain you.....e dey sweet us 😁😁😁

Una go wail tire....

Drug addict say e dey pain me. Keep celebrating your backwardness.🤣🤣🤣🤣

Now we are relying on the media to know what is happening @ the tribunal. Most media platforms don't give accurate reportage.

Live broadcasts would have been better. The same idiots kicking against it want us to read their one-sided report from their propaganda media house.

Thieves.

Students loan a.k.a looting scheme.

Untill you find out how much is a dollar to naira don't jubilate yet. I'm sensing economic doom.

One naira loan you won't see. Know this and have peace
