Way back in 2019 and 2020, I used to watch their Journalist Hangout, but now it's Arise TV or nothing else. Babajide used to speak the truth to the power back then, but emergence of his paymaster changed his story for good. Nobody takes TVC serious again, even their reporters are also following Arise TV.

Arise tv is the worst of bunch otitoju is human after all but anyone Putin Arise up there is just one mother fuckin bias person.. as for obi he is going no where and get used to tinubu as president till 2027... If u really care about real fact u should be calling channels TV not Arise tv parading one one of the worst tv anchors of these world... Rufai..

I wanted to see Paul Kagame on that list! That man and Rwanda are the pride of Africa today.
If not for leaders like Paul Kagame, I would probably argue that black Africans are not due for self-rule.

They should also invite Professor Patrick Lumumba to events like this. African leaders need be reminded that they carry the hopes of millions and start thinking outside the box.

kagame that muzzle opposition is whom u see as a model for what... Someone who is a sit tight leader if Rwanda is special Why Ina Nigerians praising them never relocate there... Rwanda economy isn't even up to Kano or Lagos so why d hype...

Buhari n the party tried to stop him(Tinubu) but it was too late and very uneasy for them. Stop claiming to know everything about the game while you are not. There is always underground conspiracy that the media doesn't tell you. Buhari and Oyegun worked against Lawal and Gbaja in 2015 bcoz it was perceived to be Tinubu's choice. Now that Tinubu will be the president and make the choice himself, there is nothing popularity or whatsoever can change about it. His candidates are going to emerge either by hook or crook. Don't be deceived bro.

go sidon somewhere abegi buhari stop tinubu that played a role in him being president after APC merger... U are just writing junks not someone like me ll believe ur cock and bull stories...

yusufu16:
You need to go check how Saraki emerged as SP in 2015 then. As it stands APC has the majority in the Senate and they will decide who becomes the SP unlike in the House where the opposition parties are in the majority though anything can happen. Because some politicians might decide to betray their parts. Let's wait and see how things unfold in the coming days.

he became sp cos majority members APC PDP supported him... APC wanted to impose Lawan like nass is APC headquarters... Like I said Akpabio is popular enough as for reps tajudeen has to campaign hard otherwise he ll Lose after all PDP had majority in 2011 when mukailat PDP preferred Lost to tambuwai...

Immediately, you said Abuja is a 37th state in Nigeria, I have to stop engaging you further, since you can't decipher the difference between 36 states and FCT(no governor) as is in the constitution. I would not waste my quotes on you again. Thanks

you don't have to cos u are just myopic and ignorant too... Get ur constitution and read and stop constitutin nuisance online

Peacecore:
Buhari through Oyegun n co in a bid to curtail Tinubu power did exactly what they did in Edo bro. No argument but let's watch

u are just writing junks of conspiracy theories...why did buhari not stop tinubu during APC president primaries... Saraki was the most popular to win 2015 and he won forget stories pple tell u...

deyplay:
You call it junk without any constitutional decree to back it up, I call it facts as there are constitutional provisions for each of the charges levied against him.

they are junks spread by ignorant obidients... Abuja is 37 state hence not compulsory for any one to even win or get 25 percent in Abuja except u are saying Abuja residents are special than Lagos or Kano...

yusufu16:
There were a number of times when the majority did not have their way both in the Senate and the House. Don't forget that most of the Senators who voted for Saraki were non-APC senators and a few APC senators. There were many instances where the Legislatures and the Executives disagreed. This has resulted in so many setbacks during Buhari's first tenure. What you want as a president is a Senate president who comes from your party and is absolutely loyal to the mandate of the party.

which few APC senators voted saraki...? Majority APC senators wanted saraki na APC no read d situation wanting to impose Lawan... Even during Obj Tim legislature executive de disagree... So it's not news... Some of u don't understand gorvenance that's why u keep repeating that line of saraki stop buhari stop him from what.. ?? During GEJ time Senate and president went to court self before they were ask to settle out of court... As it stands now with without APC as a party supporting Akpabio he ll emerge sp cos he is popular... Besides are u saying non APC reps don't have a say in who Leads them at nass isn't that why in 2019 gbajia and Lawan campaign to all their colleagues and won... Or u think nass belong to the ruling party alone??

kpompey:
Yeah, I agree with division in the south, but don't forget Tinubu has many strong ally in the north.

who's talking about division in South... Am talking about Party structure Obi kwankwanso leaving PDP made APC winning easy... If PDP can find a way to unite opposition it won't be easy for APC come 2027 Ally or not in North cos PDP is still very strong... And only PDP can defeat APC for president

deyplay:
Tell that to the court tomorrow sir. Have u heard that his cousin lule?

ok ooo shebi we gather de... U think supreme Court or tribunal ll listen to the junks Obi team of lawyers put out as petition... From nonsense allegations of drugs to stupid Abuja 25 percent??

yusufu16:
There were many times when Saraki overruled the decision of the Senate during his time even though the number of yes were more than nays. Senate President is a very powerful position. As a President, you need someone who is loyal, otherwise you will not achieve anything as a president

overruled what... Senate and nass have house rules which senate president and speaker has to work with... Saraki did his job as president... If he was that powerful why Dem no impeached buhari... Once majority say na like this na im except that sp or speaker don't want to Last...

deyplay:
different scenario bros. Tinubu has 7 mountains challenging him. 4 are only elections issues which are very strong. The other 3 are like Mount Everest, Kilimanjaroo & Olumo rock

tinubu is president till 2027 Kno this Kno peace... Obi petition is a joke Atiku even try but all ll lose

kpompey:
subject to Tinubu performance as President.

even if tinubu perform he can still lose or are u telling me buhari no do anything?? Politics is brutal it's a game of numbers... If PDP LP NNPP unite well present a popular candidate like kwankwanso or tambuwai they could defeat APC come 2027

Chekwume16:
People are rejoicing linking this to obi's victory. I have been in this country long enough to know that this was just a parting gift for the court to reaffirm tinubu's victory too. If you doubt me then you don't understand Nigeria

anyone who even think Obi has a case is just naive obi had no pathway to presidency... Even a dead man knew... Only PDP or APC can produce president The rest are pretenders... And tinubu won a fair contest opposition should unite if they want to defeat APC come 2027

sparko1:
You can't compare both OUK is just a selfish politician, the vote he got as a Senator alone is 5 time more than what Tinubu had in the whole state, some other senators under APC had vote equal and higher than Tinubu, their combine vote is over 50,000 but Tinubu had 7,990 in the whole state.

Which implies he didn't ask people to vote for Tinubu, he just wants to get to senate, at least there should be a reflection of his will in the vote his principal had, like Akpaibio, Oshiomule

so how many votes did tinubu score in IMO that warrant Ben Kalu nominated as deputy speaker?? Is there any Igbo senator popular enough to beat Akpabio self... APC Made mistake they should have just zone it to Geo Political zone without mentioning names let pple declare interest just like president that many APC guys agreed it should go to South..

yusufu16:
In addition, most of the things the President does, is subject to the approval of senate. The senator can approve or disapprove the president’s budge. Recall what happened during Saraki, senate presidency. He turned down most of Buhari’s request.

saraki as Senate president doesn't vote in proceeding he just precides so where una get this junk idea of stopping tins the only thing saraki did was exercising his right to contest for Senate president... If majority in Senate say this how it ll be saraki has no option he just ist amongst equals...

Igboid:
We all saw how Ogbannaya Onu was rewarded for the bridge he started building since 1999.

Man was loyal to Buhari from ANPP days to CPN to APC.
He became a victim of Igbophobia, was left crying like a baby in APC primaries with Buhari and co laughing at him.

Igbo politicians are mentally challenged. I look at them and I laugh.
Where is Rochas Okorocha, was he not once the darling of the Igbophobic Nigerians for his "bridge building"( which to these Igbophobe actually means being self hating and insulting fellow Igbos)?

Umahi always had a facial of someone mentally challenged, I'm not surprised he is currently following same "Bridge building" path.

Common sense should tell you that a people who hate your people can never love you.

and u really think ogbonnaya onu can beat Atiku in a president race... APC should just dash onu ticket cos he was loyal to PMB.. I fail to realize u have to pick a popular candidate to win... Entitlement mentality and victimhoodnes by Igbos should stop... Ina de always sound like broken record with Dem hate Igbos etc... Onu contested and lost simple...

XY23:
Lol. The bridge OUK has been building since 1999 is not due for commissioning in your famous 'one Nigeria'? At least, no one can argue he's detribalized. What disqualifies him but qualifies Akpabio? Both are criminals, both are ambitious, but OUK is a better party man. Igbophobia is real, and the sooner they realize it and stop trying to pander to the blackmail of 'building bridges', the better for them. In 4 yrs time, Umahi will also be discredited one way or another. You're all hypocrites.

let kalu contest or is anyone stoping him?? Power isn't given like biscuits and bread... Same right Akpabio have to contest is what kalu has Igbos should stop entitlement mentality like they are the only Tribe in Nigeria... Declare contest simple

pandoragirigory:
Soludo warned you you of Nzogbu Nzogbu dance, you never listened

instead of these unnecessary back and forth let any of Igbo senator contest... Some Igbos should stop this attitude of entitlement... Politics is game of contest and numbers... Akpabio has been campaigning even before his party endorsed him... Kalu or izunaso should declare and test their popularity.. all these na our turn and give us to strengthen unity is hogwash... Even if tinubu APC score 80 percent vote in East doesn't guarantee an Igbo as Senate president... See the zoning formula no North Central or did North Central play nsogbu nsogbu to be left out of nass position by APC guys..

salbis:
Any sane Nigerian will say NO to rubber stamp legislators..

which time rubber stamp bin de... these guys are fighting their interest u de shout rubber stamp u think executive and legislature no get collaborate for govt before

olugbenga4:
Yayi nominated Akpabio in conjunction with Opeyemi bamidele from ekiti while gbajabiami nominated speaker for Asiwaju. Infact Asiwaju doubted akpabio but Yayi stood for him. Forget Akpabio alll the way, Asiwaju cabal don endorsed him

Akpabio would have won with or without asiwaju or whatever nomination APC should be careful not to impose an unpopular person this is where tajudeen abas might lose out... Remember there ll still be voted for by their colleagues June 10 at nass

Peacecore:
Oga na lie o. Remember that PDP are not united as you think. Reps from Rivers, Kano, Oyo can go the way of APC. Just know it that Tinubu is not Buhari. He's a party man, and already knows that there'll likely be rebellions. He'll do something about it ASAP

let's wait and see go study nass politics from 1999... For me there should be a contest... Let others challenge tajudeen abas whoever is popular should win simple...

Peacecore:
What happened 2015 was that Buhari with 'I'm for everybody, I'm for nobody' mantra and the bid to but down Tinubu influence, they failed into the wrong hand. Buhari was behind Saraki fulltime but he didn't know that he was a snake in human clothing. In 2019, he(Buhari) learned his lesson and allowed the party(Oshomole) to do the right thing

you don't understand nass politics otherwise u won't type this... With or without buhari APC support saraki was going to win in 2015... Many APC senators supported him... We ll see whether tajudeen abas ll be speaker cos his colleagues ll have to vote him... In 2019 gbajia and Lawan campaign well not depending on APC nomination or imposition... Hence they won...

Jagabanarmy:
Though I have alternative view but I subscribe to the supremacy of the party

is it only APC nass guys that ll vote in June!??... U think PDP others send APC if Dem no woe them

famology:
Tajudeen Abas is El rufai candidate. He'll be a hard sell. He's not popular amongst the reps elect. There might be a rebellion in the house of representatives. Akpabio and barau will scale through but I see another person being chosen in the house of representatives by members, however Honourable Ben kalu will still be retained as deputy speaker.

Betara and Idris Wase will rebel against the APC.

you Sabi the game this where APC got it wrong they haven't learnt from 2015 I guess... That tajudeen guy won't make it... Behind despite being favorite Akpabio is campaigning to his Senate colleagues cos they're the ones to vote during nass inauguration by June... In 2019 gbajia campaign well that's why he won unlike 2015 APC wanted to impose him... And reps opposition numbers pass APC all another candidate need is small APC members and woe opposition well finish he or she win speaker on nass floor

jackcanfield:
Good look like Asiwaju listens to advise, I hope it sails through.

na asiwaju go vote these arrangements can still fail cos the real elections ll be on nass floor and house of reps opposition has more numbers and they ll vote to decide who become speaker... Akpabio ll good to go but house of reps is where drama go de... They better start campaigning now and personally I want a contest let the most popular win... Nass should be able to choose their leaders the executive can lobby from behind and APC too should play it wisely

Opinedecandid:
Congratulations HE Sen. GOA

that of speaker might be not work especially if the said tajudeen isn't acceptable to opposition and some APC guys... I hope APC learn from 2015 these guys ll not only be voted for by APC nass pple but by PDP NNPP LP APGA SDP ypp... Akpabio look likely to win though but not sure about speaker own cos house of rep opposition in number pass APC so if another popular person disagree with this zoning trust PDP and other opposition to support that person esp if popular...

The problem isn’t Monarchy the problem is only one families entitlement to the throne even in Nigeria it’s been rotated between royal families

it's mostly family thing in Most areas... Benin is inheritance... Auchi throne inheritance too other's de but Dem no get constitutional role like UK

ednut1:
the monarchs in uk don’t have constitutional powers. Just ceremonial

and they have constitutional powers that's why it's a constitution monarchy... The prime minister must go to the king Ist before assuming govt and powers that's constitutional powers... the mornarch is Head of state while pm Head of govt
