princdebola201: olodo minister re appointed while presidents are elected. The same reason why ameachi resgin to contest primary and osibanjo didn't resign cos he is not a political appointee
Ewu, if you shield roguish, certificate and age forging politicians with law and elect them, do you expect them to appoint saints as ministers and aides? They will appoint people like them.
If NYSC Discharge Certificate is not required for holding political positions, why then did we humiliate Buhari's former Minister of Finance? Why then is NYSC compulsory for Nigeria's youths who graduated from higher institutions?
The Abuja Court decision that quashed presentation of NYSC discharge certificate as necessity for political office holders must be challenged. The likes of Buhari and Tinubu can't be allowed to continue to use the courts to turn laws upside down.
oluseyiforjesus: I'm not ibo ooo But on a serious note, dis people hv being highly marginalized. It's their turn in a fair Nigeria That's d only reason I'm supporting Peter Obi. He is not a saint though, an average Nigerian is a criminal but for d reason of one Nigeria it's ibo's turn....
Tinubu and Atiku want to usurp the turn of the Igbo to present a successor to President Buhari. Let's see how it pans out. Atiku, especially, wants to set Nigeria on fire with his dream of another Fulani Muslim succeeding a Fulani Muslim as president of Nigeria.
Rwanda fought another most gruesome civil war but had a president after who totally used government policies to eradicate the group marginalization and the interethnic hatred that caused the civil war.
Some Nigerian groups are not sensible enough to end the civil war they said ended in 1970.
SmartPolician: Let's be fair here. We can accuse Buhari of anything, but he rarely gets in the way of due process in his party. That's what produced Sakari of the opposition as Senate President, which was unheard of in the history of Nigeria, and Tinubu as flagbearer.
It's obvious that Buhari didn't want Tinubu there, that's why Tinubu went about wailing in Ogun State before the primaries. Being who is, Buhari didn't get into the process. We just need him to do the same for the general election.
FYI, Saraki was in APC when he became Senate president in 2015, he took Buhari and Tinubu unaware of what he was up to. But in 2019, Buhari and Tinubu stopped Saraki from going to the Senate entirely.
SmartPolician: Bola Tinubu is the perfect definition of baggage!
One day, one wahala
Yesterday, his health condition is deteriorating Today, his certificate is missing Tomorrow, he used to be a drug peddler Next week, he has a questionable source of income Next month, he's the face of corruption, king of godfatherism and grand commander of thuggery in Lagos
Does it mean that APC doesn't have a better candidate?
APC wants to use Tinubu to perpetuate backwardness, forgery and corrupt political system in Nigeria, that's why APC sidelined clean, educated and younger presidential materials like Osinbajo, Onu and Ngige through allowing Tinubu to buy delegates during the APC presidential primaries .
Thinkam: Nothing on earth can stop Atiku or Tinubu from being president in 2023.
Not even Allah or Mohammed Or Jesus or the Christian God.
If Buhari can be elected twice why not atiku or Tinubu.
Get used to it, this is the Nigeria of our reality
Nigeria with FRAUD as its foundation.
Even many of Nigeria's youths are ready to die to let the fraud continue. Many of the youths will not mind to die of hunger under Atiku or Tinubu presidency.
islandsscotch8: Tinubu The man that singlehandedly reformed policing in Lagos by bringing the RRS which has til today been the most equipped and best police division in the country. That is exactly why we are supporting this man
RRS can be formed by any administrator. It's no big deal. Besides, the discourse is on Tinubu claiming certificates he does not have.
bicoloratrite9: Tinubu omo olodo ide , these political neophytes can't lace Jagaban shoes. The brain behind Eko Atlantic, an investment destination that will be the envy of Africa when completed. An area holding the biggest USA embassy in the world. Why will I not like this man
Is Bola Tinubu a drug lord or not? That's the question. You deliberately missed the point at stake, instead of defending Tinubu on the accusations. The evidences that Tinubu forfeited drug money to the US government have been circulating since the 1990s.
IamWonderful: Pandora Peter Obituary noticed he is no match for Tinubu and Atiku, so he is sending his urchins, IPOB miscreants and cannibals to institute court cases against Tinubu and Atiku, Two billion igbos cannot stop Tinubu
Remain stuck in reverse with your aged and corrupt presidential candidates. Others are throttling ahead, shifting gears, and quick.
Atiku's demolishing of zoning principles of PDP this time confirms what Obasanjo has been saying about Atiku. Atiku knew that it would be next to impossible for Nigerians to accept a Fulani Muslim succeeding another Fulani Muslim as president of Nigeria this time, yet Atiku dabbled into his unending contest for presidency, because he knew that a southerner would be succeeding president Buhari.
Tonyman55: What else do you expect when Buhari have already interfered with the trial and pronounced the judgement even before the trial judge could pass her verdict...... Mad people everywhere
Buhari told Boris Johnson in Kigali Rwanda, that Nnamdi Kanu will not be granted bail. Johnson must have wondered: 1) what type of country is Nigeria? 2) What manner of president does Nigeria have, a president who says what the court justices will do?
Nigeria's judiciary is under bondage of the Fulani.
Justice Binta said Nnamdi Kanu jumped bail. Ridiculous. Nnamdi Kanu escaped from Nigeria when Nigeria soldiers came to kill him but killed 26 others in Kanu's house.
There is no lie which desperation for crude oil and gas in the Niger Delta cannot make Fulani-led government of Nigeria to tell. Nnamdi Kanu did not jump bail, but ran away from Nigeria soldiers who came to kill him.
Even the Supreme Court of Nigeria is hit by lack of electricity!!!!
Yet some yeye Nigerians still campaign for outdated politicians to keep all of us stuck in reverse in Nigeria.
Anyway, perhaps Tanko is being made to resign for a harder CJN who will preside over petitions against election rigging by APC in 2023. Nothing is new, including CJN resigning office shortly before general elections, in Nigeria.
But Soludo, you talk a lot and goof more than make sense in your speeches. Your last speech on defections from APGA to Labour Party was full of innuendos and self-defeat.
shigishege: Honestly if I had to pick I will pick Tinubu, because there no Yoruba man that doesn't know how to manage a society very well. Be it the great Awolowo, Abiola, Obasanjo, Tinubu, Yemi Osinbajo, Fashola, too numerous to count. So Tinubu has all the capacity and tenacity to run and manage this country very very well.
Modified:
Shey all [b]those wailers?? Leave them alone [/b]they mean no harm.
Thank you.
But you also became a WAILER few years after you voted Buhari in as president of Nigeria. You have come again to campaign for Tinubu who is a replica of Buhari. Buhari was even less corrupt, younger and healthier, than Tinubu when Buhari started to campaign in 2014 for presidential election.
helinues: Well both Osinbajo and Obi would have been good but as the 2 major political parties have denied them their tickets, na to work on the reality.
Obi's only on the ballot to mark register, the main election is between Tinubu and Atiku
And they will go. A person who has doubtful academic credentials cannot be allowed to contest presidential election in Nigeria, because Nigeria must rise from Banana Republic status.
obyrich: Soludo said: “It is sad that the people that left had to leave, why would one leave a party he had laboured to build? It is not good to labour in vain".
Please how does the above statement refer to Peter Obi?
Peter Obi left APGA for PDP and recently joined Labour party. In other words, Obi has labored in vain, Obi can't reap the fruits of his labor in APGA anywhere else; that's the implication of Soludo's speech. Try to read between the lines. Soludo is a talkative.
A youth inclusion and good governance advocate, Amb. Raymond Jefferson has said his group, Nations Builders Youth Network(NBYN) is concerned about a candidate who has character, competence and credibility to lead Nigeria as president in 2023, urging young people not to sit back but participate actively.
Speaking at a conference/inauguration of new leadership of the body in Abuja recently, he urged the youths to pay less attention to money and financial gratification but focus on those who are committed to building a new Nigeria.
He said that NBYN will at the right time announce who represents its conscience as the candidate to support in the 2023 presidential election.
He therefore commended INEC for listening to the appeal by millions of Nigerians by extending the period of the ongoing voters registration exercise.
Jefferson therefore urged Nigerians to take advantage of this extension and pick their voters cards to exercise their franchise in next year's election.
In his comment, the Development Officer, Naija Pol Analytics a member of NBYN, Usman Muhammad expressed dissatisfaction that a large number of young people in Nigeria have not been captured in the nation's voting register.
According to him, the political understanding of the masses should be enhanced so as to improve policies and programmes of politicians even before they are elected into offices, maintaining that this would help in holding leaders accountable in line with their manifestos.
Mr. Mbadugha Kenneth, the National Pol Adviser of NBYN noted that there is need to embark on mass mobilisation of youths so that they will be part of the new vision and new direction for Nigeria through their participation in the 2023 general elections.
If this is done, he said posterity will not be hard on the young people.
The National Secretary of NBYN, Ahmed Ghali appealed to the participants at conference to share in the vision of the organisation of galvanising fellow youths to participate in choosing leaders of the country at various stages, not considering anything else apart from competence.
The conference had an interactive panel session with Amb. Raymond Jefferson, Mr. Kenneth Mbadugha, Mr. Ahmed Ghali Na'abba Prince Edward 7 and moderated by Ogenna Walter Ekwubiri, founder of Motivating African Youths Initiative which is a Pan African Movement geared towards securing a better future for women and youths.
The highly engaging youth oriented event had several speakers who spoke extensively on the INEC role in the election and youth participation, amongst them is one of the guest speakers, Mr. Jeffery kuruan.
About 5000 youths Participated virtually, and many youths in-person.
It's time African -Americans waded into Nigeria's fake democracy where square pegs are placed into round holes as president at any turn due to Nigeria's skewed and lopsided political structure created by northern military dictators to favour northern politicians. With the provision that a Nigerian presidential candidate must win 25% of votes in 2/3 of Nigeria's 36 states before proclaimed winner, it's obvious that a presidential candidate from the northern region of Nigeria which boasts as the least educationally disasdvantaged region, must win the country's presidential election, given the proliferation of 19 mostly non viable states in the old Northern region of Nigeria.
Let's first ask the Fulani to give up Ilorin to the original Yoruba owners of Ilorin, before we ask a British business man to return the Ife artifact stolen by the colonial masters after they conquered Oduduwa land.
obyrich: Please read the article and not just the heading. He was referring to Victor Ume, the former APGA chairman who defected to LP. Not Peter Obi or his presidential ambition.
Soludo explicitly said that those who joined the Labour Party are laboring in vain. What else did you expect one to translate Soludo's speech to? If he was referring to only Umeh who left APGA to join the Labour Party, that means Soludo does not know how to make his points in a speech.
FreeStuffsNG: HE Obi is building castles in the air by wasting his time and children's inheritance. He had a better chance with PDP than labouring in vain with Labour Party.
