LOL.
The whîté house owners are amàzéd at ur steewpidity.
In 29 days, Tinubu will be hanging in all their offices.

Lol!

You say it as if you are confident when even Tinubu is paranoid.

Raheeqilmaktoom:
If you believe the murder charge against Doguwa, your in-depth seeing skill is way below par.

You guys never believe anything.

Tinubu couldn’t provide his certificates. You told us not to believe he doesn’t have certificates.

His drug case in the US came out in black and white. You still told us not to believe it.

His Guinean citizenship surfaced. You still told us not to believe it.

Now you are also telling me not to believe Ado Doguwa’s murder charges.

Ok. What should I believe 🤔?

Peoples Gazette is reporting that the Interpol has invited the fleeing Adamawa REC for questioning on his role in the just concluded Adamawa Governorship and Supplementary Elections.

Lesson to everyone supporting evil that when push comes to shove, those you are supporting or working for won’t hesitate to throw you under the bus and let you be the scapegoat.

Why should a public servant block those he’s meant to serve no matter the provocation?

These are things that are only possible in Nigeria and under APC precisely.

Imagine an American discovering that Joe Biden or any government appointee blocked him, that’s ground for sack.

But here in Nigeria, and even in this thread, you will see those that will support this woman.

Josewonder:
Who take ldoits serious , what concern United States for Nigeria election matters, dos foolish ipob re really brainless set of clowns, they imagine any thing as if they are all illiterates, united kingdom that ll come and free kanu HV not come since as he rot away in prison. Foolish tribe

Lol!

So Datti, Okowa, Tambuwal, Pat Utomi, Aisha Yesufu are now IPOB members?

Voltage7:
With criminals like Doguwa boldly coming out to declare his interest to contest for SHOR, then you know that the country is irredeemable.

Why won’t he be bold to come out?

If a known international drug lord can be declared president then what is stopping him who is but a mere local murderer?

APC is a den of criminals.

Printerscanner:
You will all cry for long. Tinubu will disban Labour, then we will see what you can do

We know he plans to disband Labour, the Judiciary and even deregister opposition political parties. No one would be surprised because we know his modus operandi.

I just want to let you guys know that if Nigeria defeated Abacha, a military general, then Tinubu is a small fry.

And just like Abacha, he would have no one to stand by himself when he’s finally dislodged out of the way.

More

If this man was Igbo, Igbos would have been his greatest antagonists.

But he’s a northerner, and northerners are not enraged after he killed their people.

His party and her supporters are even cheering him on. Like someone said, if Omo-Agege could be rewarded with Deputy Senate President after leading thugs to steal the symbol of authority of the National Assembly, why won’t a murderer be emboldened to contest for Speaker?

This are the precedents that APC is bequeathing to Nigeria, and people are cheering them.

Reactions has trailed Alhassan Ado Doguwa’s letter to his colleagues at the House of Representatives to officially declaring his interest to contest for the post of Speaker of the House of Representatives.

Recall that Police had charged Ado Doguwa for arson and murder during the just concluded general elections after INEC office in his constituency was set ablaze and killed several people. He was however granted a 500million Naira bail by the court.

Now he is on way to become speaker.

The characters that are rewarded in Nigeria.

Lol!

Na all this kind statement dey give Tinubu boys heart attack 🤣🤣🤣

modernWays:
These political actors knows what they are doing, their action is not because of 2023 presidential election in which they knew deep down they lost, but future elections in 2027.

The plan is to discredit election that brought Tinubu administration into power and his government by making their gullible supporters believe their stolen mandate by current government must be recover in 2027 General elections. They will be more aggressive in this campaign the moment they lost in court. They will continue this rhetoric, couple with eyes service philanthropic and make it core subject to campaign against Asiwaju in 2027.

It is so unfortunate that only few people, particular youths that suppose to be more politically intelligent actually know the trick of these cunning politicians. Let be honest with ourselves, non of these guys, Atiku or Obi has anything to offer when giving chance. Obi in particular would've filled his government with inexperience dull people like Aisha Yesufu and her likes. They would've made alot of unrealistic theoretical policies, just like Emefiele has been doing for the past 8 years to further destroy our already poor economic road map. Obi also lacks leadership skill to operate at federal level, you may argue with me but that is just it.

The only person with great leadership skill and antecedents, who can turn around the mess created by Buhari has been given the mandate, let all rally support for him and see how it goes

Why did the IREV that worked perfectly in Ekiti and Osun Election not work for the presidential election?

Have you seen Premium Times report that confirmed what we have been telling you guys that a tabulation of votes from Rivers State on the IREV (INEC Property) shows Peter Obi won Rivers but INEC fraudulently declared Tinubu? Or is Premium Times now a fake news merchant?

Have you not seen mutilated and tipaxed results uploaded on the IREV with the original results still very much visible?

Which of these things are wrong?

A coalition of Labour Unions and Civil Society Organizations have called on the Judiciary to reject the alluring temptation of corrupt politicians who might be trying to induce them in one way or the other, and dispense impartial justice as regards the different election petitions in different election tribunals across the country.

One wonders why, apart from supposed winners, nobody or organization has given a pass mark on the just concluded election.

Every other group can’t be wrong and just one group (APC) is right.

Okechukwu Isiguzoro is not the Secretary General nor spokesperson of Ohaneze.

He’s a criminal, a political jobber, a meddlesome interloper and an impostor.

FreestuffsNG and co kindly take note.

Mitchy49:
I'm starting to detest these Ohaneze guys. They talk too much, they like issuing out unnecessary statements. It's looking like a child's play and nobody will take them serious anymore

The person issuing these statements is not representing Ohaneze.

He’s an impostor, a meddlesome interloper, given attention only by his paymasters.

Ohaneze’s Secretary General is Alex Ogbonnia.

Transform Southeast into Dubai – Ohanaeze tasks Tinubu, S’East govs

Published on April 30, 2023

By Seun Opejobi

The apex Igbo socio-cultural organisation, Ohanaeze Ndigbo, has urged the President-elect, Bola Tinubu and incoming state governors of the Southeast to transform the region into the “Dubai” of West Africa.

Ohanaeze’s Secretary-General, Okechukwu Isiguzoro, made the call in response to a proposed move by Southwest states to launch a regional railway line and electricity projects.

Isiguzoro said Tinubu’s administration and those of the incoming governors should establish rail lines across Owerri, Onitsha, Awka and Abakaliki.

Speaking with DAILY POST, Isiguzoro said: “Ohanaeze is calling on the new governors from the Southeast and that of Imo and Anambra to take drastic measures to ensure that rail line passes through Owerri, Onitsha, Awka, and Abakaliki.

“Ohanaeze is taking a lead role in ensuring that there is a rail connection from the commercial nerve centre of the Southeast, Aba, to Owerri to Onitsha where there is a dry seaport.

“But there is no connection between Enugu to Abakaliki. We are challenging the new governors to ensure that by January 2024 we must have achieved 80 per cent of these regional railway lines and electricity.”

He also said further: “We want to congratulate the Abia State Governor for building a geometric power plant in Aba through Professor Nnagi which has been providing electricity for the SMEs and lighting up Aba and its environs.
“We also commend the Ebonyi State governor for the International Airport that would create employment and business opportunities for the people of the state. We are looking at these industrial revolutions that, if properly managed by the incoming administration of Southeast governors, like the regional railway and electricity designed by the Ohanaeze Ndigbo, will transform the Southeast into Dubai and the centre of attraction of West Africa.”

According to him, this agenda cannot be achieved without the support of the incoming Tinubu administration.

Isiguzoro added: “Ohanaeze is urging our people to stop the spirit of antagonism which has turned our region into a horrible place. Most of the marginalisation cry is done by external factors.

“We must end the marginalisation mentality and have a productive mentality. We should form alliances with the moving train.”

Convergence of PLP

Cart before the horse

I’m not surprised that you people are the first to rush the thread.

It’s because of the heart attack that I’m sure this news is going to cause in your camp.

I’m sure you guys thought Datti was no longer with Peter Obi in the pursuit of their mandate just like you thought during the election.

Now, you guys are seeing a unified onslaught against Tinubu for stealing the Mandate of Nigerians.

Everything is pointing to the fact that Tinubu might not be inaugurated on May 29th. He might never get to even answer president for a single day despite spending hundreds of millions of dollars to bribe INEC and security agents to fraudulent get him announced.

See, after Tinubu is humiliated, nobody will EVER think of nor attempt what Tinubu did in the last election.

Ana Enwe Obodo Enwe!

The Labour Party and the PDP have taken their protest against the conduct of the just concluded elections to the United States with Datti Baba-Ahmed, Ifeanyi Okowa, Pat Utomi, Aisha Yesufu, and others, expected to speak at the event billed to hold between 6th and 8th of May, 2023.

The event is scheduled to hold at the White House and will feature a World Press Conference by NADECO.

Ahead of the take off of legal battles challenging the outcome of the 2023 Presidential election in Nigeria, the two main contenders, the Peoples Democratic Party ( PDP) and the Labour Party ( LP) will this week take the fight to reclaim their “mandate” out of the shores of Nigeria to far away United States of America.

The event which is also tagged “Mother of all protest rallies,” is being put together by “The Coalition of Nigerian Organisations in the United States” and is expected to take place at the White House Lafayette Square between May 6 and 8, 2023.

BusinessDay gathered that it would be followed by a World press conference, to be hosted by the National Democratic Coalition (NADECO), World Conference

The mega protest rally, will also see several Nigerians from the political and economic spheres speaking to global audience on the current political situation in the country

Those listed to speak at the rally with the theme: ‘Democracy Under Threats in Nigeria,’ include the Vice Presidential candidates of the two leading political parties, including Peoples Democratic Party ( PDP)’s Governor Ifeanyi Okowa of Delta State and that of the Labour Party (LP), Datti Baba-Ahmed.

The rally and speeches are expected to focus on several topics, including “Nigerians Eye on Chief Justice of Nigeria, CJN, Nigerians Eye on Court of Appeal, Nigerians Eye on Supreme Court and Nigerians Eye on Police, Military, and DSS”

This is coming ahead of the commencement of the legal battles involving the three main political parties, namely the ruling All Progressive Congress ( APC), the PDP and the LP, as well as the electoral umpire, the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).

BusinessDay search reveals that all the four interested parties have put together a team comprising 90 Senior lawyers, mainly Senior Advocate of Nigeria (SAN), to do the legal battles.

Sections 132 (7) and ( of the Electoral Act 2022, allows for petitions to be filed within 21 days after the declaration of results. The respondents have 21 days to respond, while the court has 180 days to decide.

The Federal Government have put together, a team of senior judicial officers drawn from State High Court, FCT High Court, Federal High Court and National Industrial Court, to preside over the Petition Tribunals.

The Presidential Election Petition Tribunal (PEPT) sitting in Abuja, the nation’s capital, is made up of five Justices of the Court of Appeal to be led by the President of the Court, Bolna’an Dongban-Mensem.

Other members include Justices Haruna Tsammani, Jonah Adah, Bello Mohammed and Joseph Ikyegh.

The President – elect and the APC candidate, Bola Tinubu tops the pack with an assemblage of over 50 lawyers, followed by the PDP candidate Atiku Abubakar’s 19, while the LP candidate, Peter Obi has 12 and INEC 9, all within the ranks of Senior Advocate of Nigeria (SAN).

This shows that while the President- elect Bola Tinubu and the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) who are defending the election have 59 lawyers, the two main Petitioners who are the main opposition candidates have a combined team of 31 lawyers, all made up of Senior Advocates of Nigeria ( SAN).

Renowned legal practitioner, Wole Olanipekun is leading the legal team of Bola Tinubu, which comprised of Akin Olujimi, Yusuf Ali, Lateef Fagbemi, A.U Mustapha, Ahmed Raji, Abiodun Owonikoko, Kemi Pinheiro, and Niyi Akintola.

Other are H.M. Liman, Taiwo Osipitan, Babatunde Ogala, Roland Otaru , James Onoja, Muiz Banire, Olusola Oke and Mohammed Abubakar.

BusinessDay gathered that INEC, with a budget of over N3bn to defend the results of the February 25 presidential and national assembly elections and the March 18 governorship and state assembly polls, has put together, a team of lawyers comprising nine Senior Advocates of Nigeria.

The former Nigerian Bar Association President, Abubakar Mahmoud, is leading the INEC team comprising Stephen Adehi, Oluwakemi Pinheiro, Miannaya Essien, and Abdullahi Aliyu
Others are Garba Hassan, Musa Attah, and Patricia Obi.

On the other hand, leading the Atiku’s legal team is Kyari Gadzama, who is leading others including Chris Uche (SAN), Paul Usoro (SAN), Tayo Jegede (SAN), Ken Mozia (SAN), Mike Ozekhome (SAN), Mahmood Magaji (SAN), Joe Abraham (SAN), Chukwuma Umeh (SAN), Garba Tetengi (SAN) and Emeka Etiaba (SAN).

Amongst the several issues, PDP and the LP are challenging the independent National Electoral Commission’s declaration of the APC candidate, Bola Tinubu as the winner of the February 25 Presidential election, asserting that that the election was conducted in gross violation of provisions of the 2022 Electoral Act.

The PDP candidate, Atiku Abubakar has also filed a petition, urging the tribunal to “ disqualify the APC candidate and President elect, Nola Tinubu on the grounds of “ dual citizenship” for holding a Passport of Republic of Guinea,

Relying on Section 137 (1)(a) of the Nigerian Constitution which says a “person will not be qualified to be president if “he has voluntarily acquired the citizenship of a country other than Nigeria.” the PDP candidate urged the tribunal to disqualify Tinubu as he was not qualified to seek the Nigeria’s highest office in the first instance

But INEC in their response, declared that presidential election was conducted in substantial compliance with the Electoral Act, 2022.

Both the APC and INEC, in their separate replies to the LP and Obi petition’s asked the court to deny them all the reliefs sought on the grounds that their petition is “devoid of any merit and also founded on frivolity”.

The APC also filed a Notice of Preliminary Objection to the hearing of the petition on the grounds that the petition is incompetent and lacking in merit,

The party also queried tribunal’s power to hear the petition, adding that it lacked necessary jurisdiction to entertain it in the first place.

Amongst others, APC claimed that the Labour Party lacked the necessary locus standi to initiate the suit against the outcome of the presidential election on the grounds that it did “not present a valid candidate for that election.”

Thomas Ojo, filing the APC’s response from the chambers of Lateef Fagbemi, SAN, claimed that Obi was still a member of the PDP as at the time he was sponsored by the Labour Party.

“The 1st Petitioner herein resigned his membership of the PDP on May 26, 2022 and joined the Labour Party the following day being May 27, 2022.

“The 2nd Petitioner herein conducted its Presidential Primary on May 30, 2022 which produced the 1st Petitioner as the candidate it intended to sponsor in the General Election

“By section 77(3) of the Electoral Act, 2022, the 2nd Petitioner is mandated to have submitted its comprehensive register of members to the Ist Respondent 30 days before its presidential primary That is to say the said register of members must have been submitted to the Ist Respondent on or before 30th April, 2022.

“The 1st Petitioner as at April 30, 2022 was still a member of the PDP and his name was not and could not have been in the register of members submitted by the 2nd Petitioner to 1st Respondent”.

In another ground, APC argued that the LP and Obi’s petition was defective because they failed to include candidate of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, who came second in the Presidential election with 6,984,520 votes as against the petitioners who came third with 6,101,533 votes.

It is the APC’s submission that “For the Tribunal to grant prayer (iii) of the Petitioners, the Tribunal must have set aside the scores and election of Alhaji: Atiku Abubakar;

“Ahaji Atiku Abubakar must be heard before his votes can be discountenanced by the Tribunal.

“The petition is incompetent for failure to join as a party to the petition the presidential candidate of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) Atiku Abubakar the Ist runner up and his political party People’s Democratic Party (PDP) as a Respondent whose right would be affected by the reliefs sought in the petition.”

Lol

Tinubu could not even wait to be sworn in first before going against Amaechi and his men.

I’m sure part of the deal with Wike is that the South South structure of APC will be handed to him.

Jokers!

Antipob777:
This is a welcome development. I urge the king to as a matter of urgency deport every igbo man or woman in Opobo land.

This people always want to claim another man's land.

From Lagos now to opobo in Rivers. Why our brothers from the Eadt like this.

God have mercy

Alternatively, the people of Opobo should learn Yoruba. That’s better.

Okwyjesus:
Because of inter marriage be lgbo wives most town around Opobo, Bonny etc have lgbo language being spoken more than indegenious one. Please we should stop all this tribal rubbish.

Why is Yorubas selling their bigot like Gala.

That’s what Wike wants.

But I suppose this to be fake news.

yarimo:
Op OBI himself will be more happier to meet and snap pictures with TINUBU

Lol!

I’m sure that if Obi can be bought with money, Tinubu would be more than willing to pay billions to Obi and offer him any ministerial position of his choice just to get him withdraw his case in court.

Isn’t that what you guys have been begging Obi for?

Supporters of Bola Tinubu and the APC have been bursted after they photoshopped Peter Obi’s Picture into Tinubu’s pictures as part of the latter’s visitors.

They made it seem like Obi visited Tinubu at the Defence House in the company of Aliko Dangote but such thing never happened.

One wonders why those who claim to have won an election are doing everything possible to associate with the supposed loser as mark of validation.

Why is APC afraid of Peter Obi?

Why is Tinubu and his boys afraid of Peter Obi’s petition in court after they asked Obi to go to court?

Why do they claim Obi lost the election but yet see association with Obi as validation of their supposed victory?

Can you not think of any other meaningful thing in your life apart from coitus?🤔

Impressive!

But where is Okechukwu Isiguzoro, the self acclaimed Ohaneze Secretary General who likes telling Tinubu boys what they want to hear?

For someone who calls himself the Secretary General of Ohaneze, shouldn’t he be the focal point of this occasion considering that the President General office is vacant due to death?

So please, Tinubu boys, Okechukwu Isiguzoro does not speak for Ndigbo. He’s just a tout, an MC Oluomo equivalent, who is working for his stomach.

Stop rejoicing whenever you see trash emanating from him in the name of Ohaneze.

He doesn’t sound like a 419er, he is a 419er.

They had to wait until Allen Onyema reminded them that they need to evacuate stranded Nigerians in Egypt.

I have never for once in support of the Adamawa's REC even before the supplementary election.

Btw, what's the total number of the Ohaneze excos that they can't conduct ordinary exco election without having factions? It has been like that for years now. Do they expect INEC to be conducting election for them?

There was only one election of Ohaneze Ndigbo in Owerri, Imo State, where the late Prof George Obiozor emerged as President General and Alex Ogbonnia emerged as Secretary General.

Unfortunately, the sponsors of the impostor who is now parading himself as Secretary General, sponsored a parallel election where the characters causing confusion now claim to have emerged.

When next you see Mr Isiguzoro, ask him who is the President General of his own faction since he claims he’s the Secretary General and not the president.

helinues:
Na Adamawa REC conducted the Ohaneze election

Good to see you make caricature of the Adamawa REC. I take that to mean that you have accepted that the REC is a dubious character and that APC lost Adamawa woefully but wanted to steal the people’s mandate like they stole the presidential election.

Elmojiid:
All na scam.. Na there pocket matters to them, dem no get igbo interest for mind.. Same thing with arewa and afenifere faction too much

In the last 4 years, tell me one stance that Ohaneze has taken that was against the Igbo interest or that did not represent the position of the generality of Ndigbo?

Acekidc4:
Ohaneze and Confusion are like Bread 🍞 and butter, very compactible. Yeye dey Smell.........Ndi Nsobu Nsobu

There’s no confusion anywhere.

The only confusion here is in the camp of those using Isiguzoro.

Ohaneze is one entity and they speak for Ndigbo.

Some controversial and confusing statements have purportedly been issued by Ohaneze Ndigbo of resent which always run contrary to what Ohaneze is known to have stood for.

But I want to use this avenue to tell the world that the man who parades himself as the Secretary General of Ohaneze Ndigbo Worldwide, Okechukwu Isiguzoro, and issues silly statements in that capacity, is an impostor who does not and has never spoken for Ohaneze Ndigbo.

If anything, Mr Isiguzoro is but a tool in the hands of those who are experts in causing schisms in any organization they see that they cannot buy. They tried to do it with Afenifere but the age long organization were able to defeat their shenanigans. They are currently doing it with the Labour Party and have gotten an impostor to be issuing statements to their support in the name of Ohaneze.

So, please, the next time you read any statement emanating from this character do not give it any credence as being the position of Ohaneze or Ndigbo.

The authentic Secretary General of Ohaneze Ndigbo is Chief Alex Ogbonnia. He’s the only person whose statement you should take seriously as what Ohaneze Ndigbo’s is as regards any sociopolitical issue in Nigeria.

So, Nairaland and its owner and moderators, stop pushing the statements of Okechukwu Isiguzoro to front page as position of Ohaneze.
