APC Presidential Primary: Who the 8000 delegates will vote – ANALYSIS. @delemomodu @ogundamisi Its down to the wire and the 8000 delegates of the All Progressives Congress holds the four ‘Aces’. Later today they will elect the presidential candidate of the main opposition party in Nigeria at the Teslim Balogun Stadium in Lagos. Political analysts say its a straight fight between former vice-president Atiku Abubakar and former head of state, General Muhammadu Buhari but which of the other three aspirants — Rabiu Kwankwaso, Governor of Kano, Rochas Okorocha, Governor of Imo or newspaper publisher, Sam Nda-Isaiah will be the spoiler? But by last night, rumours about one of the candidates giving delegates N500,000 each ($3,000) threw the Buhari camp into panic. “Delegates may choose to vote for money. Or they may choose to vote for conscience,” said an observer close to the convention. Sources told TheNEWS that crucial meetings were held up till early today to steer the election to a Buhari candidacy. According to analysts, Buhari will most likely get a block vote from South West delegates and the states under the control of APC governors, excluding Kano, which is expected to vote Kwankwaso. Delegates from other states are not quite predictable, analysts say, which leaves the contest wide open. In TheNEWS analysis of the vote, we however predict a Buhari victory in at least 21 states: Lagos: Buhari Ogun: Buhari Oyo: Buhari Kwara: Buhari Osun: Buhari Ekiti: to be split between Buhari and Atiku. Atiku predicted to have an edge here. Ondo: Buhari/Atiku Edo: Buhari Delta: Atiku/Buhari Rivers: Buhari Bayelsa: Buhari Akwa Ibom: May be split between Atiku and Buhari Cross River: May be split between Atiku and Buhari Kaduna: Buhari (Buhari’s political base) Katsina: Buhari (Buhari’s home state) Kano: Kwankwaso Nasarawa: Buhari Plateau: Sam Nda Isaiah, Atiku Benue: Buhari Niger: Buhari/sam Nda Isaiah Zamfara: Buhari Sokoto: Buhari Kebbi: May be split between Atiku and Buhari Adamawa state: Atiku solid here since Adamawa is home base. Buhari too will get some delegates here Borno: Buhari Yobe: Buhari Gombe: Atiku Bauchi: Buhari Kogi state: Buhari/Kwankwaso/Atiku Taraba: Buhari/Atiku Jigawa: Kwankwaso/Buhari/Atiku Imo state: Okorocha Enugu: Okorocha/Atiku Anambra: Buhari/Atiku/Okorocha Ebonyi: Okorocha/Atiku Abia: Okorocha/Atiku TheNews.

Hon. Patrick Obahiagbon was humbled at the just concluded APC primaries in Edo state. Patrick confirmed his loss in the simplest of English ever, which is unlike him as we are used to his robust english. On his loss he said “Yes it’s true.I lost out of the Senatorial contest yesterday.Was looking forward to a robust contestation of ideas at the red chambers but the people thought differently and I respect their decision.God bless Edo state.God bless Nigeria.” He lost to the Minority Whip of the House of Reps, Samson Osagie, in the APC Edo South Senatorial District primary election. |
I only see a bastard and not a redemer....mtchew |
I wonder igbo like deceiving thereself, even though PDP use peter obi as deputy in lagos they will end up the they have being......so AGBAJE you are only wasting your time |
BRIEF HISTORY OF OKUN PEOPLE Okun people are Yoruba descendants in Kogi state. Kogi is a multi ethnic state and Okun people are up to 20% of Kogi State population, smaller than the other two major completely different tribes, Igala and Ebira. Okun people spread across six local government areas in Kogi State, known as Kabba- Bunu, Yagba-West, Yagba-East, Mopa-Muro, Ìjùmú and Lokoja local government Areas. They speak varied dialects…Owé, Ìyàgbà, Ìjùmú, Bùnú and Oworo, but their language is generally called Okun, Okun has become a form of greeting among them. They understand one another to a greater extent and large numbers of them speak Yoruba. Their dialects are influenced by various factors. Such factor is that Kogi state shares boundaries with Kwara, Ondo, Ekiti, Niger, Benue, Nassarawa, Anambra, Enugu, Edo and Abuja. Also, The Nupe wars of the 19th century and interaction with the Hausas due to geographical zoning left an indelible mark on the Okun people and their dialects. According to oral source, Okun people migrated from Ile Ife when Yorubas were spreading to occupy more lands, before spreading out, each and everyone was instructed to report to Ile Ife for a yearly meeting. The man, that led group of young people to a location (now called YAGBA) in Kogi state did not return over a long period of time. When eventually returned and explained that he lost larger part of his acquired land to some other migrants. He was blamed for the loss and said in yoruba, ''ÌYÀ ÀGBÀ LÓ JEMÍ'' meaning that invasion of his acqured land was due to lack of having elderly people with him. Since then, they started mocking him at Ile Ife, calling him Iya agba . They associated this name with him whenever they wanted to send messages across to him after returning to his occupied area, now called Yagba. Okun people faced lots of challenges, ranging from geo political zoning, marginlisation and problem of identity. Their problem started during the colonial era when they were politically ceded to the Northern protectorate by Lord Lugard, the Governor-General of Nigeria. The abolition of the provincial and regional administrative units in 1967 led to their merging with Ilorin to form old Kwara state. Then, Igala was merged with old Benue State. However, on 27th of august 1991, Okun people was removed again and merged with Ebira, Igala from Benue state and some other tribes to form Kogi state. Okun indigenes moved against merging them with completely different tribes but they were forced into this marriage. Since then, Igala and Ebira have used high population to merginlise Okun people politically and in resource allocation. When an Igala man tells you ‘Omi na kaye, ma joje ma mu du’, he is telling you he would consume whatever available in his surrounding. And that is exactly what is presently happening to in their resource allocation. Their efforts to break away and form Okun State, which could make it possible for them to be more closer to their Kiths and Kins in the South West, failed to materialise. Concerning Identity problem, The Yorubas in South West are trying to link the identity of Okun people to their Kiths and Kins in South West going by history and shared traits but their counterparts who want Okun people to remain a minority tribe in the entity called Nigeria, claimed that Okun people are not Yorubas and Yoruba is only trying to expand their Kingdom. Okun people bear Yoruba names like Edo people, lots of them speak yoruba and many of their settlements are named in yoruba language such as Kajola, Egbeda, Egbeda Ega, Okedayo, Odo Ere, Odo Eri, Ife, Iyamoye, Agbaja, Igbo Nla and Obajana. Even, groups that make up Bunu people of Okun are Okemeta, Okemesan, Akumerindinlogun and Kiri groups. By: Raymond Ayinla Ajeigbe |

”The claim that the Igbo helped to develop Lagos is hogwash. The major institutions of the south- west were developed by the diligence, hard-work, industry and sweat of the Yoruba people. This is a historical fact”- Femi Fani-Kayode I posted these words on my Facebook wall as a fallout of the hot debate that was generated after the relocation from Lagos to Anambra of 19 Igbo destitute by the Lagos State Government. Immediately after the posting, all hell broke loose on my wall and all sorts of excitable and emotion- laden comments and assertions were made on the thread. I welcomed each and every one of those comments including those that accused me of being a tribalist and a Yoruba nationalist. That is the spirit of debate and we cannot all possibly agree on everything. Needless to say I stand by every word that I wrote in the post and those that do not share my view are free to hold their own opinion. My assertion is based on history and knowledge and not emotion. The facts are clear and the records speak for themselves. I will go no further than that because it is about time that Nigerians from the younger generation learnt to do their own research and to study their own history. I will not allow the mob mentality or the wild emotions of others to becloud my thinking or to intimidate me into distorting the truth. The Igbo had little to do with the extraordinary development of Lagos between 1880 right up until today. That is a fact. Other than Ajegunle, Computer Town, Alaba and buying up numerous market stalls in Isale Eko, where is their input? Meanwhile the Yoruba of the old Western Region and Lagos were very gracious to them and not only allowed them to return after the civil war to claim their properties and jobs but also welcomed them with open arms and allowed them to flourish in our land. This is something that they have never done for our people in the east. Such gestures of love and fraternity were never reciprocated. Now some of them have the effrontery to call Lagos, which is our land and the land of our forefathers (I am half Lagosian), ”no- man’s land” and others have the nerve to assert that up to 50 per cent of the development in Lagos came as a consequence of the input of the Igbo. This is utter rubbish. Those that do not know any better ought to go and learn rather than vent their hostilities and ignorance against me here or on my Facebook wall. I am not a tribalist but a great believer in Nigeria and more importantly, I am a historian and a student of history. I will not distort the facts of history just to keep some people happy. The history of the Yoruba, and of Lagos particularly, is very well known to me. And the fact that Lagosians and the Yoruba people generally are so generous and accommodating in their ways and to non-indigenes that settle in their territory should not be mistaken for ignorance, stupidity or weakness. We know our history, we know who we are, we know who and what developed our land and made it into what it is and we urge those that yearn to be like us to go and emulate our efforts and attitude to non-indigenes and hard work in their own states of origin. I have nothing against my fellow Nigerians from other parts of the country and I have proved over and over again that I love Nigeria and that I am a Nigerian before anything else. However if, in the twisted imagination of some, speaking the truth about the history and development of Lagos and the Western Region makes me a tribalist, then tribalist I am. Servants of truth do not fear such labels and are often hated and misunderstood. If I were worried about what others thought of me I would have stopped writing long ago. Meanwhile, permit me to recommend to all and sundry the following words of an insightful Nigerian by name Sina Fagbenro-Byron. He has had the courage to analyse the matter in a very honest, clear and forthright manner and he has spoken the truth. Let us hope that those that have no knowledge of that truth are humble enough to learn from it. He wrote- |

Democracy 101: Difference between APC & PDP [A MUST READ] @delemomodu @Muazuaa We urge Nigerians to ignore the "they are the same" bandwagon and action their passion for REAL CHANGE by voting out PDP and voting in APC at the centre. The differences between APC and PDP are crystal clear to discerning Nigerians: a. APC believes in politics with principle; PDP believes in politics without principle. b. APC believes in work before wealth but PDP believes in wealth without work. c. APC believes that power goes with responsibility but PDP believes in power without responsibility. d. APC believes that things can be done differently in Nigeria but PDP believes in the maintenance of status quo ante. e. While PDP plays ethnic and religious politics, dividing Nigerians to remain in power; APC believes that Nigeria remains a secular state where every religion is respected. f. While APC believes that there is insecurity in the land; PDP thinks that it is doing its best for Nigeria even though their best is far from being good enough as thousands of Nigerians have been killed. g. APC believes that stealing is corruption; Goodluck Jonathan & PDP et al believes that stealing is not corruption. h. While APC believes that impunity should be a serious crime in this country; PDP believes that impunity is a way of life. i. APC believes that the police, DSS, INEC, CIVIL DEFENCE, NYSC etc are institutions of democracy which must be strengthened to consolidate and sustain democracy; PDP uses these vital institutions to oppress, suppress and repress Nigerians to remain in power. j. APC is convinced beyond unreasonable doubts that it is wrong and unacceptable that Federal Government should keep 52% of the Federal Allocation while States and 774 LGAs keep 26% but PDP thinks that it is business as usual. Nigeria is wrecked and damaged and PDP-led government does not know where to head. Poverty is rife, impunity is overwhelming, infrastructures are decayed. No hope, as joblessness, insecurity, inflation and many other vices have made a mess of Nigeria. Nigeria hugs the limelight in every negative index of growth! With this dreary picture and with the reality of being swept off power, PDP came with the insidious propaganda that it is the same with APC, the party that stands the greatest chance of seeing it out of power. To continue to throw our hands up in total surrender that it is neither PDP nor APC leaves us with no option than to continue in this state of hopelessness and helplessness. We urge Nigerians to ignore the "they are the same bandwagon" and action their passion for REAL CHANGE by voting out PDP and voting in APC at the centre. culled from JOE IGBOKWE. |
So I got this in my email this morning… They call the Third World the lazy man’s purview; the sluggishly slothful and languorous prefecture. In this realm people are sleepy, dreamy, torpid, lethargic, and therefore indigent—totally penniless, needy, destitute, poverty-stricken, disfavored, and impoverished. In this demesne, as they call it, there are hardly any discoveries, inventions, and innovations. Africa is the trailblazer. Some still call it “the dark continent” for the light that flickers under the tunnel is not that of hope, but an approaching train. And because countless keep waiting in the way of the train, millions die and many more remain decapitated by the day. “It’s amazing how you all sit there and watch yourselves die,” the man next to me said. “Get up and do something about it.” Brawny, fully bald-headed, with intense, steely eyes, he was as cold as they come. When I first discovered I was going to spend my New Year’s Eve next to him on a non-stop JetBlue flight from Los Angeles to Boston I was angst-ridden. I associate marble-shaven Caucasians with iconoclastic skin-heads, most of who are racist. “My name is Walter,” he extended his hand as soon as I settled in my seat. I told him mine with a precautious smile. “Where are you from?” he asked. “Zambia.” “Zambia!” he exclaimed, “Kaunda’s country.” “Yes,” I said, “Now Sata’s.” “But of course,” he responded. “You just elected King Cobra as your president.” My face lit up at the mention of Sata’s moniker. Walter smiled, and in those cold eyes I saw an amenable fellow, one of those American highbrows who shuttle between Africa and the U.S. “I spent three years in Zambia in the 1980s,” he continued. “I wined and dined with Luke Mwananshiku, Willa Mungomba, Dr. Siteke Mwale, and many other highly intelligent Zambians.” He lowered his voice. “I was part of the IMF group that came to rip you guys off.” He smirked. “Your government put me in a million dollar mansion overlooking a shanty called Kalingalinga. From my patio I saw it all— the rich and the poor, the ailing, the dead, and the healthy.” “Are you still with the IMF?” I asked. “I have since moved to yet another group with similar intentions. In the next few months my colleagues and I will be in Lusaka to hypnotize the cobra. I work for the broker that has acquired a chunk of your debt. Your government owes not the World Bank, but us millions of dollars. We’ll be in Lusaka to offer your president a couple of millions and fly back with a check twenty times greater.” “No, you won’t,” I said. “King Cobra is incorruptible. He is …” He was laughing. “Says who? Give me an African president, just one, who has not fallen for the carrot and stick.” Quett Masire’s name popped up. “Oh, him, well, we never got to him because he turned down the IMF and the World Bank. It was perhaps the smartest thing for him to do.” At midnight we were airborne. The captain wished us a happy 2012 and urged us to watch the fireworks across Los Angeles. “Isn’t that beautiful,” Walter said looking down. From my middle seat, I took a glance and nodded admirably. “That’s white man’s country,” he said. “We came here on Mayflower and turned Indian land into a paradise and now the most powerful nation on earth. We discovered the bulb, and built this aircraft to fly us to pleasure resorts like Lake Zambia.” I grinned. “There is no Lake Zambia.” He curled his lips into a smug smile. “That’s what we call your country. You guys are as stagnant as the water in the lake. We come in with our large boats and fish your minerals and your wildlife and leave morsels—crumbs. That’s your staple food, crumbs. That corn-meal you eat, that’s crumbs, the small Tilapia fish you call Kapenta is crumbs. We the Bwanas (whites) take the cat fish. I am the Bwana and you are the Muntu. I get what I want and you get what you deserve, crumbs. That’s what lazy people get—Zambians, Africans, the entire Third World.” The smile vanished from my face. “I see you are getting pissed off,” Walter said and lowered his voice. “You are thinking this Bwana is a racist. That’s how most Zambians respond when I tell them the truth. They go ballistic. Okay. Let’s for a moment put our skin pigmentations, this black and white crap, aside. Tell me, my friend, what is the difference between you and me?” “There’s no difference.” “Absolutely none,” he exclaimed. “Scientists in the Human Genome Project have proved that. It took them thirteen years to determine the complete sequence of the three billion DNA subunits. After they were all done it was clear that 99.9% nucleotide bases were exactly the same in you and me. We are the same people. All white, Asian, Latino, and black people on this aircraft are the same.” I gladly nodded. “And yet I feel superior,” he smiled fatalistically. “Every white person on this plane feels superior to a black person. The white guy who picks up garbage, the homeless white trash on drugs, feels superior to you no matter his status or education. I can pick up a nincompoop from the New York streets, clean him up, and take him to Lusaka and you all be crowding around him chanting muzungu, muzungu and yet he’s a riffraff. Tell me why my angry friend.” For a moment I was wordless. “Please don’t blame it on slavery like the African Americans do, or colonialism, or some psychological impact or some kind of stigmatization. And don’t give me the brainwash poppycock. Give me a better answer.” I was thinking. He continued. “Excuse what I am about to say. Please do not take offense.” I felt a slap of blood rush to my head and prepared for the worst. “You my friend flying with me and all your kind are lazy,” he said. “When you rest your head on the pillow you don’t dream big. You and other so-called African intellectuals are damn lazy, each one of you. It is you, and not those poor starving people, who is the reason Africa is in such a deplorable state.” “That’s not a nice thing to say,” I protested. He was implacable. “Oh yes it is and I will say it again, you are lazy. Poor and uneducated Africans are the most hardworking people on earth. I saw them in the Lusaka markets and on the street selling merchandise. I saw them in villages toiling away. I saw women on Kafue Road crushing stones for sell and I wept. I said to myself where are the Zambian intellectuals? Are the Zambian engineers so imperceptive they cannot invent a simple stone crusher, or a simple water filter to purify well water for those poor villagers? Are you telling me that after thirty-seven years of independence your university school of engineering has not produced a scientist or an engineer who can make simple small machines for mass use? What is the school there for?” I held my breath. “Do you know where I found your intellectuals? They were in bars quaffing. They were at the Lusaka Golf Club, Lusaka Central Club, Lusaka Playhouse, and Lusaka Flying Club. I saw with my own eyes a bunch of alcoholic graduates. Zambian intellectuals work from eight to five and spend the evening drinking. We don’t. We reserve the evening for brainstorming.” He looked me in the eye. “And you flying to Boston and all of you Zambians in the Diaspora are just as lazy and apathetic to your country. You don’t care about your country and yet your very own parents, brothers and sisters are in Mtendere, Chawama, and in villages, all of them living in squalor. Many have died or are dying of neglect by you. They are dying of AIDS because you cannot come up with your own cure. You are here calling yourselves graduates, researchers and scientists and are fast at articulating your credentials once asked—oh, I have a PhD in this and that—PhD my foot!” I was deflated. “Wake up you all!” he exclaimed, attracting the attention of nearby passengers. “You should be busy lifting ideas, formulae, recipes, and diagrams from American manufacturing factories and sending them to your own factories. All those research findings and dissertation papers you compile should be your country’s treasure. Why do you think the Asians are a force to reckon with? They stole our ideas and turned them into their own. Look at Japan, China, India, just look at them.” He paused. “The Bwana has spoken,” he said and grinned. “As long as you are dependent on my plane, I shall feel superior and you my friend shall remain inferior, how about that? The Chinese, Japanese, Indians, even Latinos are a notch better. You Africans are at the bottom of the totem pole.” He tempered his voice. “Get over this white skin syndrome and begin to feel confident. Become innovative and make your own stuff for god’s sake.” At 8 a.m. the plane touched down at Boston’s Logan International Airport. Walter reached for my hand. “I know I was too strong, but I don’t give it a damn. I have been to Zambia and have seen too much poverty.” He pulled out a piece of paper and scribbled something. “Here, read this. It was written by a friend.” He had written only the title: “Lords of Poverty.” Thunderstruck, I had a sinking feeling. I watched Walter walk through the airport doors to a waiting car. He had left a huge dust devil twirling in my mind, stirring up sad memories of home. I could see Zambia’s literati—the cognoscente, intelligentsia, academics, highbrows, and scholars in the places he had mentioned guzzling and talking irrelevancies. I remembered some who have since passed —how they got the highest grades in mathematics and the sciences and attained the highest education on the planet. They had been to Harvard, Oxford, Yale, Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), only to leave us with not a single invention or discovery. I knew some by name and drunk with them at the Lusaka Playhouse and Central Sports. Walter is right. It is true that since independence we have failed to nurture creativity and collective orientations. We as a nation lack a workhorse mentality and behave like 13 million civil servants dependent on a government pay cheque. We believe that development is generated 8-to-5 behind a desk wearing a tie with our degrees hanging on the wall. Such a working environment does not offer the opportunity for fellowship, the excitement of competition, and the spectacle of innovative rituals. But the intelligentsia is not solely, or even mainly, to blame. The larger failure is due to political circumstances over which they have had little control. The past governments failed to create an environment of possibility that fosters camaraderie, rewards innovative ideas and encourages resilience. KK, Chiluba, Mwanawasa, and Banda embraced orthodox ideas and therefore failed to offer many opportunities for drawing outside the line. I believe King Cobra’s reset has been cast in the same faculties as those of his predecessors. If today I told him that we can build our own car, he would throw me out. “Naupena? Fuma apa.” (Are you mad? Get out of here) Knowing well that King Cobra will not embody innovation at Walter’s level let’s begin to look for a technologically active- positive leader who can succeed him after a term or two. That way we can make our own stone crushers, water filters, water pumps, razor blades, and harvesters. Let’s dream big and make tractors, cars, and planes, or, like Walter said, forever remain inferior. A fundamental transformation of our country from what is essentially non- innovative to a strategic superior African country requires a bold risk-taking educated leader with a triumphalist attitude and we have one in YOU. Don’t be highly strung and feel insulted by Walter. Take a moment and think about our country. Our journey from 1964 has been marked by tears. It has been an emotionally overwhelming experience. Each one of us has lost a loved one to poverty, hunger, and disease. The number of graves is catching up with the population. It’s time to change our political culture. It’s time for Zambian intellectuals to cultivate an active- positive progressive movement that will change our lives forever. Don’t be afraid or dispirited, rise to the challenge and salvage the remaining few of your beloved ones. |
A friend of my came to me yesterday and tell me he want to prove to me that Jesus is God....with evidence in the Quran, I was surprise and told him to go ahead. He said I should open to Quran chapter 4 vs 171.it read O people of the scripture (Christians)! Do not exceed the limit in your religion, nor say to Allah aught but the truth. The Messiah Isa (Jesus), son of Mary, was (no morethan) a messenger of Allah and his word, (Be! And he was) which he bestowed on Mary and a spirit created by him.........(The verse continue) He open is bible to John chapter 1 vs 1...3 He read In the beginning was the word and the word was with God and the word was God... He said since Quran said Jesus was it word this prove that Jesus is God I wish to let the majority of us to understand this 2 book very well. In Quran chapter 36vs 82 Verily, his command, when he intend a thing, is only that he says to it, Be and so shall it be. Since the bible (Genesis chapter 1 vs 3) said Then God said; let there be light and there was light And God saw the light, that it was good, and God divided the light from the darkness From this we can see that God create heaven, earth, light, and human being at his wish by what we call a creative power Be and So It shall Be (KUMFAYAKUM) The way he created Adam, Eve, he decide bring a miracle from Mary to give Jesus Qur 19vs 17- 22 17 she placed a screen (to screen herself) from them; then we sent to her our (angel, Gabriel), and he appeared before her in the form of a man in all respects. 18 she said "verily, I seek refuge with the most gracious (Allah) from you, if you do fear Allah. 19 the Angel said "I am only a messenger from your lord, (to announce) to you the gift of a righteous son" 20. She said how can I have a son when no man has touched me, nor am I unchaste? 21. He said so (it will be), your lord said that is easy for me (Allah), and (we wish) to appoint him as a sign to mankind and mercy from us (Allah), and it is matter (already) decreed, (by Allah). 22. So she conceived him and she withdrew with him to a far place (I.e bethlehem). |
