fergie001: Whilst the bill is a good one, I support its rejection. It will exacerbate the problem it is trying to solve.
I think not.
The only thing I don’t like about the bill is its provision for 6 years tenure.
Asides that, I think until we are more democratically mature, rotation of power should be constitutionally enshrined for now.
It will prevent one part of the country from constituting themselves as rulers while condemning others to perpetual followers whilst making mockery of them.
And this should include governorship and Local Government Chairmanship.
flexyrule: I got a training opportunity with an oil and gas firm in Lagos sometime in 2019. I resigned my job in Abuja and moved to Lagos.
Our office was in Ajah. So I got a place around Lakowe. One weekend I decided to check up on my cousin staying at Alapere. I spent the weekend at her place and headed back to Ajah on Monday around 2pm.
We got to the Landmark center axis around 3pm or so.. There was a crazy gridlock on that Lekki-Epe expressway.
I sat down at the back and held on to my bag firmly. Three hours later, we didn't move 300 meters. Passengers kept dropping one after the other, I thought they had either gotten to their bus stop or maybe were hanging around for the traffic to ease.
6pm or so we were around Jakande.. I noticed an exodus of people trekking... and almost all the buses were empty, while others were looking for the easiest way to turn back.
That was when it dawned on me that all the people I saw walking by were actually passengers that alighted from buses and were trekking back home... Omoh!
I jumped down from the bus, and joined the exodus of people happily cruising their legediz Benz to their respective destinations.
I got to Ajah bridge around 9pm, crossed over and got one Orijin bitters, crossed back and located the nearest transport company.. That was GUO.. I bought a ticket for the first bus heading to Abuja the next day.
Of course, all those ruining Nigeria with Tinubu right now will be happy to identify with him now that it’s still profitable and easy to do so.
But in no distant time, all those who ever identified with Tinubu will be treated like leper patients and will never amount to anything politically in this country.
zero8zero: But Obi won under APGA and defected to PDP. Keep deceiving yourselves. We have even seen you say he should go back to PDP if they give him the presidential ticket. You're just a bunch of hypocrites.
Kaiser20: Nigeria doesn't have Politicians in the real sense of serving the country and its citizens. Nigeria have jobless, clueless individuals using politics as a palliative for survival
citizenY: He knows the danger in doing that. He is putting Kano in danger. APC game plan is to drag him in with his governor. We allknow that the governor is the leader in each state. Abba Yusuf becomes leader of the party in Kano, so what happens to Kwankwaso? Kasala go burst. Sanusi/ Aminu Bayero saga go reach front burner. APC wants Kano by all means and they risk burning the place down. My opinion.
It’s not just your opinion my brother, it’s general knowledge.
Tinubu doesn’t mind setting Nigeria ablaze as long as he would rule over the ashes.
1. Abure's tenure has ended. 2.;The process that churned him up at his National Convention was not done in line with our laws.
These two facts are incontrovertible, and suly acknowledged by INEC.
So, INEC is trying not to meddle into the affairs of the Political Party, it's now time to take the bull by the horn, it's now on Peter Obi, Usman and Gov Otti.
I really think these people you mentioned have done enough. Or haven’t they?
They held a NEC meeting, came up with a resolution and went by themselves to submit it at INEC.
fergie001: Don't blame INEC... SC didn't say one person should be, so Otti and Obi have to call for an expansive NEC meeting with signatures to back it up. The earlier the better so as to stamp it once and for all.
I am happy INEC has come out to dispel, they won't do anything. It's up to the parties to decide.
Yea, I’m happy INEC has issued a statement.
But if you read the CTC of the Supreme Court judgment and listened to the audio released later, you will see that from the words of their learned Justices, INEC is precluded from accepting Abure as chairman again. They were explicit.
Again, Labour stakeholders already went to INEC and given the names of their party leaders.
fergie001: I can tell you clearly that INEC is wrong and fostering the crisis. PDP's clear because Wike and Damagum have overpowered that Party but you see for LP, INEC is simply a Party to the crisis.
I am waiting, I know INEC will deny it.
It’s on their website. I’ve verified it.
I never knew a day will come that an institution in this country will be disobeying the Supreme Court.
Ozinlex: This guy Obi is actually on a different level and may God raise hundreds of millions of men like him in Nigeria...only then can Nigeria take its rightful position in the world.
I can assure you that millions of us are modeling our lives after him.
Hustling to make clean with.
Deliver excellently on any assignment given to us.
Lead a modest and humble life.
Be fearless!
And stay tenaciously on the side of truth and justice no matter how juicy it is to be on the side of wrong.
So, believe me, when Peter Obi dies, many Peter Obi will rise.
lailo: The same Abure that u obididiots praised to high heaven, denigrating Apapa and calling him babalawo? The same Abure is now your enemy And the same INEC you destroyed with ur mouth is the same INEC u are praising for bouncing Abure out Obi and mumu followers
Because he went rogue.
Judas was part of Jesus’ 12 Cardinals. But what happened to him when he went rogue?
