Wike must be writhing in pains right now
The big fight will come during the gov
If APC fields Fubara for 2nd term as its being reported as the carrot being dangled before 1st term govs, that will be hell
Will Wike allow APC with Fubara as candidate to win a second term or will he retain his state for PDP?
Note that he did not mention Wike once in his speech

Oyinlomobambam:
Agreed... rest in peace bro

Oyinlomobambam:
Did you type this from your grave?

yarimo:
Makinde succeeded in burying PDP completely

lapintoz:
Go to court or tell your representative in the national assembly to commence impeachment process.

Bitterleaf gang.

DomPerignon:
You don rest with your daily insults on Tinubu and his govt as well as against Nigeria?

All your posts today have been insulting Tinubu , the SW and Nigeria as a whole.

When is Giringori going to visit Kanu?

And why is he dragging his feet?

DomPerignon:
Other than Otti of Abia, every other SE politician who used to call for kanu's release none has gone to visit Kanu notably Giringori


Why is Giringori yet to visit kanu in Sokoto Maximum?

hotseat:
Your hatred for Mr President is out of this world!

It's so bad that you even hate your country in the process.

Guy, take a deep breath and ask yourself if the step taken by Mr President is so bad that he deserves to be impeached.

The coupists struck on a Sunday when the legislature where not sitting and the President had an emergency at hand.

In the circumstance, the President couldn't afford to wait for the approval of the Senate before rising up to the occasion.

He promptly did seek for the approval of the Senate the following day.

So, what are you blabbing about?

Besides, what happened to the "doctrine of necessity"?

The President has asked the assembly for permission, and it has been granted.

allthingsgood:
Abeg rest

What is the wrong that was done here that u guys are so agitated
Are u from Benin

DomPerignon:
In terms of deploying military and security officers, the President is not compelled due to security concerns to inform anyone before doing so.

As C-n-C, the entire military is under the President .

There are no joint command structure between the President and National Assembly.

The only time the President requires NASS approval is in declaring war on a foreign nation.

What transpired in Benin wasn't an act of war but a special military operation on the behest of a neighboring nation.

If Benin's legitimate and globally recognised govt is not complaining and have since sent their gratitude for our help in putting down an insurrection and mutiny within their army that wanted to overthrow the civilian democratically elected and globally recognised leadership, what is there to complain?

We didn't declare war or attack Benin for no reason but came to ensure stability down there.

DomPerignon:
Because like the US, we operate a similar federal system with an executive President.

Most of our amended and newly passed security laws are borrowed from same US.

Nigeria's President also has the powers to.issue executive orders and deploy military first and later consult and brief the NASS.

The President of Nigeria has also the exclusive powers to decide Nigeria's foreign policy without recourse to the legislative branch.

DomPerignon:
Which observation?

The US constitution has same provisions in declaring war and sending troops abroad but the last time the POTUS had congressional authority was in the Vietnam war .

Ever since then, POTUS has been bombing and droning as they deem fit.

As I said, get your legislators to initiate the impeachment proceedings.

DomPerignon:
Write to your legislators in the NASS to begin the process of impeachment .

DomPerignon:
Rest.

Nigeria can not afford having rogue military dictatorship bordering us.

These regimes are hostile towards Nigeria and since the coup wave swept the Sahel, insecurity has exploded in the north as the military juntas are not in any way doing their bid to halt the flow of weapons and jihadist elements.

This wasn't the case when there were civilian democracies in Niger, Mali and Burkina Faso who assisted against the war on terror.

To have Benin next door to Lagos go the route of Niger that is now hostile to us and not cooperating in fighting Islamic Terrorists will be another disaster in the making.

Nigeria did not declare war on Benin but acted to the distress call of a neighboring allied nation that was facing an insurrection that would have seen to regime change.

You don't expect the Tinubu govt to wait for the Senate approval before doing the needful.

Since many of you cannot learn, I have to leave you guys with your ignorance. Keep WALLOWING SELF DECEIT!

Kdon2:
This must be obi people🤣

tunjijones:
Remove Lagos from Southwest, south east will still not be able to compete with her Western counterpart.

How will the region be productive when they all run away from the place to develop other people's region like the land is cursed ...

MaziObinnaokija:
we shall see who be 🤡 🤡 🤡 🤡 🤡/jesters soon

tishbite41:
Nice one from PDP
This Akwa Ibom chap seems to be the fastest rising star in the Nigerian political firmament
Gangster statement

ebukal67x:
A proper reading of the 1999 constitution shows that the president has the powers to deploy troops for limited combat without necessarily going to the National Assembly. Abubakar is just looking for an opportunity to be in the news.

These are the kind of lawyers that pushed Nlamdi into Sokoto prison..

A chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Austin Okai, has resigned his membership of the party.


The Kogi-born socio-political activist, who confirmed his resignation to DAILY POST on Monday, said he has joined the African Democratic Congress (ADC).

Prior to the protracted leadership crisis rocking the PDP, Okai had been one of the party’s key image makers, giving a series of interviews to national dailies and television stations.


DAILY POST reports that a large number of politicians from different parties recently joined the ADC when the party was formally unveiled in the Kogi West Senatorial District.

During the unveiling, which took place over the weekend, former lawmaker Senator Dino Melaye projected the ADC as the only viable option for Nigerians, lamenting the increasing hardship in the country.


The former lawmaker said the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) has made life difficult for Nigerians, stressing that there is massive hunger and starvation across the country.
