Hahahah.its still better he apologized Sha, but damages had been done.

Hahahah.they just want to feed on the gullibility of many uninformed Nigerians to win election.
They should ask them if they are going to bring back subsidy of petrol and naira if voted into power. Then they should also be asked, where they are going to see the Dollars to do such.
One was asked exact same question the other day, he started dribbling.trust journalist, they kept asking him to the point it became obvious he got noting new or any solution to offer.he just wanted power to shift to their side to enjoy

Azmanaty:
Even a 1000 year old stone will perform better than the agbad0 lord

but honestly how is the person going to do it.return subsidy to forex and petrol or what exact way do u think the person can do it make we start to dey enjoy again for Nigeria

Cooking cooking, something is cooking

jmoore:
Story.

ADC will reduce votes from APC.

ADC will reduce votes from APC.

will that not reduce vote from lp, pdp as well. The truth of it all is that opposition votes are surely going to be divided the way things are unfolding

Penguin2:
Atiku is the only alternative to Tinubu in your book?🤔

by the time obi take his share of hunger votes, Atiku obtain his own northern block of the hunger vote, maybe PDP can get their own share of the hunger votes, do u think the splitted vote will be enough to unseat the president

Penguin2:
That the governors are defecting doesn’t mean the people are defecting.

so u now believe it's Atiku they will now go and queue behind. Una no just understand how this things work.that u are voting for Atiku because of hunger does not mean another person will still vote for Atiku because of the same hunger.other candidate dey too so at the end of the day the people voting base on hunger will divide votes among the political class

TheJustPath:
Your comment completely misses the point. Senator Natasha Akpoti isn’t being “stubborn” — she’s standing on principle. Apologizing for exposing institutional wrongdoing would be nothing short of cowardice. She was elected to represent the people, not to bow to political intimidation or rubber-stamp hypocrisy.

Calling her “incorrigible” because she refuses to play along with a flawed system only proves how uncomfortable some people are with strong, independent women in power. If defending truth and integrity means facing unjust suspension, then so be it. She’s setting a precedent that leadership isn’t about submission — it’s about courage.

court gave a ruling but she wanted the case to drag on in her own wisdom because she sees apologizing as a weakness and sign of defeat. Akpabio in his own wisdom too choose an aspect of the ruling to appeal exact same way Natasha picked an aspect to obey and also another aspect she preferred to appeal. This will drag the case on and the Senate including the female Among them are surely not in her support because of the reckless show of shame she displayed in the hallow chamber and the court didn't also rule in her favor in that show of shame in the Senate. To the issue of sexual allegation, she was in several occasions asked to provide even just one evidence but till now, noting has been provided reason most citizens don't take her serious anymore

🤣.enter Senate nah.no be chochocho.
Make we see doings nah

AroleOduduwa2:
Wike believes he’s outsmarting people who were already seasoned in politics while he was still in primary school. By next year, many PDP senators are likely to defect, some to the ADC, others to the APC. Wike can then go ahead and run for president, possibly choosing Makinde or Damagun as his running mate.

🤣🤣🤣 and u think more division will help the new party either.the only thing this guys can use to campaign against Tinubu now is hunger.if Tinubu had wanted to continue borrowing to keep subsidizing fuel and forex, and also print more naira ,perhaps we for remain for Buhari-era level of austerity and
Tinubu for easily win .Tinubu took a hard decision and same opposition that promised they would do exact same policies are now going to be using the effect of removing subsidy as campaign strategy. Atiku na ur time be this ooo.ensure u use am Wella and to try corner Obi to ur side as Vice to be able to defeat Tinubu hands down

Shawarmagirl:
I can bet my life and everything dear to me, if Helinues or Yarimo had the opportunity to meet Peter Obi one-on-one and had a hand shake, they will be happy, laminate and frame the handshake and put it in their room. You can only hate Obi online.

na vice versa na.am sure u will do exact same if u meet Tinubu

Rexymania:
Everything na Peter Obi...is he the only politician in Nigeria ni?

he leaves, votes are splitted as usual and Tinubu will continue beyond 2027.thats ADC fear because only northern votes can not guarantee an Atiku victory

Penguin2:
Shit is becoming a joke at this juncture.

But, like Solomon Dalung said, even if all 36 governors defect to APC, Tinubu will still be smoked out of Aso Rock in 2027.

this must be a joke 🤣🤣🤣.u know it urself.
All the important states needed to win an election are somehow sure for APC now. Kwankwaso is likely switching too so as to have a fair chance in 2031.let's see if Atiku will allow Obi clinch the ticket and also if the remaining PDP governors including finturi will switch to ADC

SenatorCharles1:
When did the FHC become an advisory body? This letter is mischievous. The court declared the suspension excessive and a violation of her right. What othe language do they want the court to speak?

Modified
Yes, the court lacks the jurisdiction to question the Senate rule or legislative business for which the court absolutely did not interfere but as touching fundamental rights of a citizen, the constitution takes preeminence over any Senate rule and her lordship wasted no time in stating the obvious in clear terms.

It's a very simple judgement that shouldn't pose any difficulty interpreting.

Suspending a senator for six months is over reaching and a violation of her fundamental right and that of her constituents. Senate rule or no Senate rule, the suspension is null and void and a violation of section 63 of the constitution period!!!

the court tried in a way favor both side by asking Natasha to pay 5M and also apologize but she refuses and went ahead to appeal the part of the judgement that wasn't in her favor (5m and apology) but accepted the part she deem okay for her.
In a twist of even the Senate felt if she isn't going to apologize and appealing they also can appeal the part to continue punishing her since she had refused to apologize.i remember the Senate ask her to even apologize then because of her unruly behavior but she refuses .madam is just punishing herself and her constituents

VladimirTheGrea:
Are you one of Tinubu's advisors or you're a nairaland.com roustabout?

Tinubu sank the country beyond what his predecessor did, is that not clear to you?

this emotional statements isn't what I asked sir.what do u expect he had done differently .do u expect him to continue borrowing dollars to subsidy naira and petrol to the tune of 1.5billion dollar monthly or what do u expect he had done differently.answer question and stop bn emotional oga sir.

VladimirTheGrea:
So you are banking on party controversy to let a gross failure like city boy perfect his rigging machine back to power

Joke!!

Please say something.what do u think Tinubu should have done differently sir, May be we start from there

VladimirTheGrea:
Half of Buhari's vote is swinging to Atiku surely.

The math is, make Seyi INEC chairman and Wike Interior Minister. Else landslide go carry flood too

una never even settle PDP vs ADC puzzle that will divide opposition votes because most of the PDP gov told u guys point clear they wouldn't be moving to ADC. then u will still surely have to settle that of southern guys vs Atiku presidential ticket shopping. 2027 May sure be easier for Tinubu.

tunjijones:
Peter Obi , the incoming VP candidate of the coalition.

hahaha the way Atiku go dey look u now ehn.he formed a coalition only to allow obi pick the ticket.

It is always easy to blame people in govt.
No be the same lady , who was asking if she could get some of the jambites affected by the last jamb exam result error for interview.
Immediately people raise a concern if those she put up for interview will not be victimized, Omo the way she flare up gave it out she was just out to use them for her own personal gain.alot of people were surprised the way she flared up that day.

GuyWise101:
Nna mehnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn

Things dey happen for this country sha.

Few years after your tenure you suddenly pass away.

Was Buhari really cloned by jubril from Sudan.

May be we should Chief Nnamdi kanu again or we can just put the question to Obi who just sent his condolence message

mariovito:
Nor be the same Belarus wen dey fight on behalf of Russia for Ukraine?

who knows, May be them wan go join Russia army through the back door

No be by chochocho. Court always got a way to calm people down

Penguin2:
Same you people have been swearing since 2023 that Southeast votes were rigged in Obi’s favour.

Now, you are saying that Ihedioha is supporting Obi so he can win Imo.

So, Imo was no longer rigged for Obi?

Where una stand gan gan?

no time for long story oga. This is 2027 permutation. Make u rest about 2023 .it's gone .if Una like Split opposition votes again and see if Obi will win.

TossTos:
I knew this will happen because Shettima thought he will be replaced in 2027

exactly my thinking too.he want to cause the confusion within APC.let wait and see who will represent them should kwankwaso join them.
Me I don't think a kwankwaso will forgo his presidential ambition to another person. Knowing fully well that by 2043 or say 2039 he will likely be old to be a flag bearer for the north by them.na the calculation this politicians dey make oo.them no send anyone.

Hahaha.smartness .let's see as it unfolds.he knows obi can not defeat an Atiku in primaries but want to use obi's popularity to win imo state.smart man

Una dey govt, use most govt machinery against his victory in 2023 election and he was able to defeat una in the election despite naira and fuel scarcity.na now una wan use non govt machinery against am and expected it will work.no be juju be that.

Fekumzi123:
I fear you ooo.
Technically, Tinubu will win?

it now depends on if obi will agree to to be Atiku vice should Atiku win the primaries.an only then e go tough for Tinubu

Putindbutt:
How many delegates do you have per state in ADC ?. You think it's by social media registration 😂

lol
Atiku don kick them to the side already.same Atiku that was saying if wike had agreed to allow only SE candidates do the primaries, he would have allow them without contesting 2023 primaries.Baba just throw them lamba at will.lets see the stories he would use this time

emkz:
Many of those who worked under Buhari have turned out to be ingrates because of unemployment.

In 2011, coalition talks failed as Buhari refused to concede the vice presidential ticket to Tinubu's camp. In 2015, the merger paid off when Buhari conceded the vice presidential slot to Tinubu.

The additional 3 million votes led to offsetting Jonathan's votes by 2,571,759.

Without Tinubu, Saraki and some others, Buhari would never have won that election and Babachir and Boss Mustapha would not have been SGF.

Tinubu contributed immenseley to rebranding Buhari and successfully removed the tag of religious fundamentalism from Buhari, which influenced Buhari's marketability.

Despite Buhari's team sidelining Tinubu during Buhari's tenure, Tinubu remained true to the party. Despite the party abandoning APC Edo during Obaseki's second term campaign, Tinubu supported the party. Despite many in Buhari's camp refusing to openly campaign for Tinubu, Tinubu campaigned as if his life depended on it. Buhari later joined when it became clear he was being unfair to Tinubu.

Now, many of Buhari's disciples who feel sidelined are now undermining Tinubu. Osinbajo himself undermined Tinubu by running against him and got served. It's been only two years, and many of Buhari's disciples cannot stay the course. Buhari and Tinubu were the arrowheads of APC. Buhari had his time, Tinubu also deserves his time. After Buhari, Tinubu took more heat on behalf of APC during Buhari's tenure.

There were rumours that some people in Buhari's government were more disposed to an Atiku presidency when the Ahmad Lawan project failed. The way they are trooping to the coalition, it is clear where they stood.

Even if Babachir, Boss Mustapha, Malami, Laureta Onochie and some Buhari's closest fellows detest Tinubu, they should be reminded that Buhari would never have been president without Tinubu's support.

To politicians, think of the future. Do not make enemies because of temporary hunger. You abuse Tinubu today. Tomorrow, you might need someone from his camp to support you. Why should he trust you?

well written. Just 2yrs out of power and bn sideline , they are so angry

Madam Natasha. Them Senate president for use u shine. U said the other day when u resume the first thing u will talk about is still s*xual all*gation against Akpabio

moscow007:
Wicked Woke the emperor

This man's downfall will be cataloged as "what no to do in Nigeria politics"

Obi is coming...

...coming as campaign DG of ADC. 2027 election will be interesting Sha. As it is so , Obi isn't likely going to be either the Presidential or VP candidate for ADC. I see obi likely going to continue with his LP package.
