Peoples Democratic Party, PDP House of Representatives candidate for Aboh Mbaise/Ngor-Okpala Federal Constituency, Albert Agulanna has debunked media reports that the Independent National Electoral Commission has delisted him as a candidate for Saturday’s poll.

The purported report had alleged that Agulanna’s removal by INEC followed the court order by the Appeal Court delivered in January.

From the document presented to The Guardian by the Imo PDP candidate, his name still occupied number 11 on the list of INEC as contestants for the National Assembly election as at Wednesday, 22, February 2023.

Speaking to the Guardian over the telephone, Agulanna described the report as fake, unfounded, misleading, unfortunate, mischievous and the handwork of those who are afraid of his capacity to clinch victory at the poll.

“Go to page 248 IMO state, on the INEC website, you will see my name,” Agulanna said.

He urged his teeming supporters, members of his party and constituents to disregard what he described as a fallacious report and turn up massively come Saturday to vote for him.

He insisted that among other candidates, he is the most qualified, credible and people’s choice for effective representation and leadership services if elected.

Also, a chieftain of the party, Chinedu Mbah told the Guardian, “INEC published their official final list for the 2023 general election as Engr. Albert Agulanna remains the PDP candidate.

“Also, yesterday the PDP presented the party flag to him during their LGA rally in Aboh Mbaise as their authentic candidate.

“Kindly disregard contrary information regarding this being spread by those who are not ready to go to the polls with the candidate.”

It could be recalled that in January, a Federal High Court sitting in Abuja had nullified the Imo PDP primaries that produced Agulanna as a candidate and ordered that a fresh primary be held in the constituency within the next 14 days.

Agulanna also approached the Supreme Court challenging the decision of the appellate court.

The apex court, on Tuesday, resumed hearing on the suit and after adopting processes, adjourned the case till March 3 for a ruling.

Sam daddy and Hope Uzodinma trying so hard to divide Mbaise votes, should go and research the history of why Mbaise union was coined. The bond can never be broken. Sam daddy who doesn’t have any single structure in Imo PDP even being the party’s national secretary is just evidence that he is a political novice. His blackmail tactics as being used as a tool by jittery politicians to try to stop Ihedioha can only be a mirage. Sam daddy going to Mbaise areas to buy endorsements after failing to high jack the party structure in the State simply means he hasn’t moved on from his bitter loss which dealt a huge blow to his ego. He has always been a loser from his 2nd term Senate bid to clinching the party’s ticket in 2019 and will still lose this year, mark it.

Stop being a big fo ol.

Simply checking the registered voters in the the regions under discussion is enough to enlighten you on it.

If you're wise, you would have taken a screenshot of it and post here, but since you're know it is a lie, you won't do that.

We gave you an assignment to further educate you, you either do not have data or you are intellectually lazy to do your research. You had to check a 2015 post on nairaland to justify what you don’t understand. We told you to go and verify, your duty is to prove us wrong by bringing your facts from Inec register, but u can’t. Go and find something better to do with your time. At least you would have learnt something new today.

NORSYK:


Stop being a foo.l
Just go to INEC Portal and check the voting strength of all LGAs in Owerri zone.
Do you think mushrooms LGAs like Isu, Nwangele, Nkwere, Njaba, Orsu, Oru west, Oru East and Ideato North stand a chance?

No need arguing with that buffoon, he is obviously from those mushroom tiny LGAs in Orlu zone. He is pained that they wouldn’t even be allowed to vote in the upcoming elections due to insecurity in their backyards

AllDModsAreMaad:
NORSYK, idiotseverywher, Ochendo1, you all should come and check the results here and also take note of the recalculated results for Mbaise.

It has always been a known thing with Mbaise result being rigged and inflated.
Check the recalculated results for it.

That was the same thing he did in 2019 but he got busted.

The good thing is it wont work in the next election because of BVAS. That is why I said he should better spend his money on something else other than campaigning.

You should have posted 2019 results here let’s analyze.

AllDModsAreMaad:

Tell that to your elders.

Back to the topic, normally the most populated LGA in Imo state and second most populated in southeast is in Orlu zone.
By voting strength, Orlu zone, which is Imo west is the district with highest number of registered voters.
I don't need to confirm anything because one silly human, I always know this.
Excluding Owerri municipal, which other place in Owerri east has population biko?
Mbaise is only popular for one reason, and you know that reason?

Since you are not even from Imo, there is no point engaging you. Save your opinions for arguments with your Umunna

AllDModsAreMaad:

The last time I checked, there was nothing like your claim there.
The point is the population combined, don't try to divide it, I'm wiser than you.

Same way aboh-mbaise, mbaino and mbaitolu combined is not up to Orlu Town's population.
Dun ce, mention a zone with a higher voting population OR keep sh ut the fu ck up please. Using voters apathy here is not an excuse, they can still decide to participate in the next election.

You think that style he used in the last election will work this time around?
People knw he tried in rigging it in his zone to the point of over rigging which prolly gave him out when the number of votes casted exceeded the number of accredited voters.

You are wiser than me you must be a fool with a half-baked education. Well any nonentity from orlu axis can argue about population. I will mention it again as it seem your brain doesn’t have the capability to comprehend issues. Go And check the registered voters in Mbaise as a whole, Owerri zone as a whole and other areas you mentioned and establish how stupid you sound. Don’t mention me again if you haven’t done this homework, kid.

AllDModsAreMaad:

You are a novice in Imo politics, Orlu has the deciding population/factor in Imo politics and Ihedioha is not popular positively among us.
Him go lose woefully even if he gets the ticket under PDP.

Imo ppl are used to stupid talks like this, I presume you are not even resident in Imo state. Go and look at the imo inec voters register even far back as to the last 20 yrs and and educate yourselves, having more LGAs with tiny populations does not translate to huge populations. How many votes did Ihedioha get from orlu the last time. You will be reminded when he wins the elections again.

If you are not from mbaise I can excuse your ignorance on mbaise affairs. Mbaise ppl will never vote against their own note this and for future references. The Mbaise people are a well populated and united people be it in politics or in any manner of association whatsoever. As for Sam Daddy, he can only dream by hoping to get endorsements. If you don’t understand how politics is played don’t just come here to type nonsense based on hearsay. Ihedioha controls the PDP structure in Imo State and only a fool would believe he will not be the flag bearer in the upcoming gubernatorial election in Imo later this year. If Sam daddy and his fellow jokers even being the National secretary is so sure of victory, they wouldn’t go to Mbaise nation with a population of more than a million to seek attention. Hear it today and mark it that Ihedioha is the next governor of imo state and wike can never ever have a say in Pdp ever again with or without Atiku emerging as president. Hope Uzodinma is a small fry and if he is so sure of victory he should stop the blackmail and the use of his boy Sam daddy.

Fake news from the saboteur camp, Ihedioha remains Imo Atiku presidential campaign chairman. The pained national secretary should be ashamed of himself after he failed to influence the NWC decision as to who is really in charge of Imo PDP. Ihedioha remains the face of Imo PDP and i challenge any clown to think otherwise.

The Bill is a good one.... the Bill is not against protests but thugs hired to attack and distrupt peaceful protests..
The bill is also against mob action (jungle justice), dont know why no member has propsed such a bill until now.
We are quick to criticise without comprehension... we accuse politicians of stealing our common wealth, and as a result it has rendered us poor... same people will not think twice to carryout jungle justice on a fellow poor Nigerian that stole cubes of maggi and we think we have not contributed to our problems.

The bill is a good one....

"Miyetti Allah, hear this: IPOB is not South-East Governors that you can threaten and get away with. We are the same IPOB that collapsed the #Zoo," the IPOB partly said in the statement.

It further reiterated that its major task is to kill the Fulani murderers marauding as herders.

"We are after every killer herdsman. We’re after you Fulani terrorists and murderers masquerading as herdsmen.

"If you implement this your threat, it shall be your last. We no longer believe in turning the other cheek, it is now blood for blood and you will lose," the statement concluded.

These words should be words on marble, serving as a warning to any closet self-entitled terrorist masquerading as herdsmen.
IPOB is no joke, and does not take shit from anybody (just a reminder).

Rt. Hon. Emeka Ihedioha is the most preferred, he is a good pick for President or Vice President. Umahi and Ken Nnamani also comes to mind.

[quote author=Enugupikin post=97846906]We know you want people to stop asking you which particular area you're from, but only you can advertise where you are from to others.

All these is because Imo people feel their towns aren't popular and they need to be in a general well known town.
Same can't be said of Enugu where someone will tell you I'm from ụdị, Ngwo, Nsukka, Nkanu etc and not just owerri, orlu and okigwe whereas they're many towns in there.

Or Anambra which take pride in their town names, Nimo, Nibo, Nnobi, Enugwu Agidi, Awka Etiti, igbo ukwu, uli, Aguleri etc, towns here are even more popular than LGA

Or Ebonyi where someone will say I'm from Afikpo, ohaozara, Abakaliki, ohaukwu, ishielu etc

Or Abia where people are also proud of their towns like Abriba, ohafia, isuochi, Ngwá, umuahia, igbere, izu-Akoli etc

Imo people should take charge of their origin and stop simply hiding under owerri, okigwe and orlu zones

Are you okay?
Which of those towns you listed there are more popular than say Mbaise, regionally, nationally and internationally.
When you are anywhere in Nigeria and say you are an Igbo man, you are first asked if you are from Mbaise before you are even asked of your state of origin.
So what point are you trying to make with your pointless post?

These people have now resorted to petty shameless begging for the presidency, what happened to the political sophistication of yoruba , from obasanjo is an Igbo man to this , it is either the east have it or it goes to the north simple.

greatiyk4u:
This is the truth

Only those mbaise people Ihedioha smuggled their names into the civil service record without following due process are complaining


Anyone with counter evidence should show it not rumour from Facebook friends that work in the civil service


I am in Imo state and can testify to what the Gov said though the salary is partially slashed

All the people complaining are from mbaise as you claim right, you can make your point without sounding like a brainless unexposed buffoon who reasons from his anus. Think before you talk next time.

10 MONTHS UNPAID SALARIES/PENSIONS: IMO WORKERS RESORT TO SUICIDES
- How Mr. Hope Uzodimma is pushing Imo workers to untimely deaths

- Over 100 deaths of Imo Workers/pensioners recorded in the last ten months

- Orders Workers Home Without Ten Months Salary Arrears.

Bleak and disillusioned atmosphere has become the order of the day in Imo State as the Supreme Court imposed governor of Imo State, Mr. Hope Uzodimma has refused paying Imo State workers and pensioners since he was fraudulently imposed upon the state by the Supreme Court.

Since the inception of this fraudulent regime, workers and pensioners in the state have not received a single drop of salary.

The only salary that the workers and pensioners ever received since the inception of this regime was in the month of February as it was the payment voucher already prepared by the PDP administration of Gov. Emeka Ihedioha in January before the court judgment of January 14th.

Imo State workers and pensioners have lost hope and faith in the regime as many have resorted to taking their own life when suffering occasioned by non payment of over 10 month salaries knocked them very hardly and badly.

Records have shown that there have been well over 100 death of Imo workers and pensioners recorded since the inception of the Hope Uzodimma APC led regime because many could not afford the luxury of basic drugs.

The actions of the Supreme Court Governor by not paying over ten months salary of the state workers and pensioners have directly and indirectly accounted to loss of lives of these poor workers.

Just a few days ago, one of the state workers who could no longer bear the pains of hardship took his own life and committed suicide in Emekuku in Owerri North LGA of the state.

This is one out of tens and hundreds of other cases of death related to unpaid salary and pensions by the regime.

To worsen their plight, the Supreme Court Governor has ordered that the state Secretariat be shut down starting from Monday and the workers have been sent home without any form of salary in the past ten months and without any kind of provisions to cater for them, most especially this festive season of Christmas celebration.

May God Save IMO State in distress.

What goes around, comes around....
The Lagoon Oba deposed and they swam in his lagoon pool....
"Wetin be Oba of Lagos" the commenter asks...

See his face like SCG Hope Uzodinma

The worst part is that the man the attention seeking hopeless Supreme Court temporary administrator of Imo is trying to get his attention does not just reply or respond to any idiot... Ihedioha does not engage in baseless war of words with a nincompoop... the hopeless administrator is too little to engage Ihedioha in any blame game due to his cluelessness and lack of foresight to govern. Someone who was magically elevated from last to imaginary first cannot come prepared. The worst of it all is him being a known illiterate 419ner. NEXT.

The supreme court is superior to any customary court.The government owns the land and if I find myself in such situation I will not give it to any brother's children the question was what if the man has no brother and son who takes it?you have not answered that.People do not challenge these laws as a result of respect nothing more it does not mean it is a impossible uphill task to do.Because the law is very clear ancestral land or not

It depends on how you see women.
That one has no meaning to me if you ask me this is the only argument you can hold in court but there are many arguments an intelligent lawyer can hold against you to challenge such a premise.Some judges won't even see this issue as a substantial arguments because a lot of people even build houses outside ancestral homes and some ancestral homes even get renovated.
This argument holds no water to be honest

Good.. we are making progress... good that you know you can't challenge a will Mrs Challenger..
Now back to ancestral lands:

Scenario 1: if the land belongs to the government on what grounds are you going to challenge the sharing or takeover of the property if you don't have valid documents?

Scenario 2: If the compound in the village is a shared compound with your dad and his brothers living communually and for example your dad is the first son and he still inhabits in his fathers house (obi) and your grandfather is still alive. If your father (God Forbid) goes to the great beyond do you think you or even your brothers have right to that obi no it goes to the next in line your uncle and his children... Contest that in court too Mrs. Challenger

Scenario 3: Mrs. Challenger if you are the only heir and you have no son outside wedlock and you take your uncles to court for taking over your fathers house of which the land was given to him by their father without documents to back it up. Hope you can do well to explain to the courts that you should be entitled to inherit the property built on an ancestral land without the umunna backing you up and without valid documents.

AmazonTopaz:
Exactly my dear.These men can only say these rubbish to uneducated igbo women not me I know my rights and the law very well it is because the women are conditioned not to challenge these laws that is why they still exist if many women in igbo land challenge some certain harmful laws the supreme court will abolish a lot of these laws.
Ancestral land that belongs to the government these people think it cannot be challenged in favour of the daughters LOL.

Ochendo1 where are you.

Do you know what a will is? if you do go and research why they are not contestable except on certain grounds...

For ancestral compound i wish you luck in the courts when you go to challenge that... do you know why when you go to the courts to legalise your marriage they ask you if you have done all the traditional rights or even the traditional wedding before you legalise your marriage lol! e get why... customary laws/ courts get jurisdiction. Even your so called almighty supreme court will refer to the customary law of the land in making their judgements... Even Igbo mothers will chase you out of her late husband's house if you dare contest the ancestral compound in court with the Opara if you know u know... ga jukwese!

Listen everyone and listen real good!

A Supreme court cannot supercede the customary norms and traditions of an area as it is purely optional for the people of the area to accept, mend or expunge such norms if they so decide.

Now, in this 21st century where i believe most people have embraced some form of education and are familiar with wills/trusts etc. With a valid one in place, properties, shares or monies can be shared according to the directives on the said will and no court or military force can change or administer otherwise the will except if the contenders can validly proof that such will was written without a sound/sane mind. It is important to note that a man/woman can choose to will his or her assets to whomever they want (ie. 100% can be willed to female child only or vice versa or even to charity) and cannot be questioned and can only be in contention if you can proof beyond any doubt that such was done without a proper frame of mind.

Now traditionally as an Igbo man from Mbaise, (for those rejoicing) nothing changes as i can tell you with absolute confidence that the Supreme Court ruling is just a mere judicial/academic exercise based on global human rights as to female children also being eligible to inherit their fathers properties. I believe that exercise was based on the fact that there was no will in place for which a contention for the said properties arose. Now in Mbaise land and i belive the Igbo at large... let me tell you that a woman can never inherit her fathers property in the said country home of the man in question and are solely reserved for the male children as (no military action or force, court injuction or whatsoever can change that). In the case of no known male children, an adopted son can inherit the country home. Logically, the said females are free to dwell in the said abode for as long as they like if they are not married.

It is important to differentiate between a contention for inheritance of properties cituated outside of an ancestral compound if there was no valid will in place and that of the man's (Obi) village house which are not contestable. Personally, i will "will" properties to both my male and female children in this ratio (80% for male and 20% for female, excluding individual monthly cash trust benefits that will go to all children) this is asumming that my daughters will be married outside and it is their responsiblity to go and build wealth with their husbands.

In my opinion, the Supreme court ruling does not change anything as issues of inheritance are solely the prerogative of the said owner and the directives given by the owner of the will/trust should and must be carried out.

Congratulations! Mbaise born Kaycee Madu
