Here we go again with another tale of betrayal. No matter how long you ride a tiger, you will eventually end up in its belly. With a megalomaniac like Tinubu, there's no pleasing him no matter how long you pledge servitude.

Yorubas are labelling all their contemporary technocrats like Fashola, Osinbajo, etc. "betrayers" in favour of an Octogenarian who is fast reaching the end of his shelf-life politically. Pathetic! Kwankwaso contested against Buhari and even decamped multiple times but he still remains regarded as a leader in the North even by Buhari himself. Elrufai went against Buhari to fight the naira crunch and support Tinubu against all odds but Buhari is still cool with him. Rather, it's the Yorubas that are now terming him a betrayer. What an irony! Tinubu is not who the Southwest should be putting all their hopes on. He needs a successor and that cannot be Seyi.

Even His Excellency, President Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu (GCFR) knows Sanwolu is a collateral failure

Ambode was more of a man and leader.

What does ebilokan owe Obasa that he is keen to use him as further evidence of Oshiomole's Assembly of Past Crooks, APC forgiving sins of those who stay loyal to the party hierachy

Has ebilokan even forgiven Ambode who Sanwo Olu replaced?

chisomkachy:
The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has withdrawn the alleged money laundering suit it filed at the Federal High Court against Lagos Speaker Mudashiru Ajayi Obasa.

Naija News understands that the anti-graft did not give any particular reason for its application for withdrawal.

Following the application to withdraw, Justice Nicholas Oweibo discharged the ‘lien/Post No Debit’ placed on Obasa’s three accounts in Standard Chartered Bank.

The accounts are (US Dollars) 0001852063; (Current) 0001852056 and (Saving) 5002309624.

The judge also set aside the ex-parte orders he made on September 15, 2020, which led to the freezing of the accounts.

Recall that the court on September 15, 2020, granted an interim order freezing Obasa’s accounts following the EFCC’s application in a suit marked FHC/LCS/1064/2020.

The agency had said it was investigating the Speaker for the alleged offences of conspiracy, diversion of funds, abuse of office and money laundering.

But Justice Oweibo, on August 16, 2023, heard the application to unfreeze the accounts in his chamber.

During the hearing, the EFCC was represented by Mr. Sulaiman I. Sulaiman, while Obasa was represented by Mr. Adeyinka Olumide-Fusika (SAN).

The EFCC lawyer told the court that the application to unfreeze the accounts was pursuant to Section 44(2)(K) of the 1999 Constitution (as amended) and Sections 26, 29 and 34 (1) of the EFCC (Establishment) Act, 2004, and under the court’s inherent jurisdiction.

Section 44 of the Constitution concerns constitutional rights to property.

Justice Oweibo held: “It is hereby ordered that an order is hereby granted to the respondent/applicant setting aside the ex-parte orders of this court made on the 15th day of September 2020 upon the ex-parte motion of the Applicant/ Respondent in relation the funds of the Respondent/Applicant domiciled in the accounts stated in the following schedule:

“ACCOUNT NAME, FINANCIAL ACCOUNT INSTITUTIONS, TYPE OF ACCOUNT, 1. Mudasiru Ajayi Obasa, Standard Chartered, (US Dollars) 0001852063 2. Mudasiru Ajayi Obasa, Standard Chartered (Current) 0001852056 3. Mudashiru Ajayi Obasa, Standard Chartered (Saving) 5002309624.

“Issued at Lagos, under the seal of this Honourable Court and by the hands of the Presiding Judge this 16th day of August 2023.”

May Day: Hunger, unemployment, insecurity real— Tinubu

According to him: “The theme demands our collective attention and serves as a stark reminder of the need to create an environment where every worker feels safe, valued, and empowered to contribute to the growth and prosperity of our nation. As your President, I assure you that this administration is committed to creating such an environment for the common good.”

On the economic hardship, he noted that while it is a global phenomenon, its effects on Nigerians are particularly severe.

Tinubu said: “I am aware of the peculiarities of the economic hardship Nigerians face—rising living costs, hunger, insecurity, unemployment, and the loss of livelihoods. These challenges are real and demand definitive solutions, which I am poised to address as your President.

Not my business . What happens in Lagos stays in Lagos

They have not told you the real story! There can be only one sin. It is the same that affected Ambode and others.

Abeg go and sit on top water, tinubu na God?

Sirmwill:
You be grass?

Bro.....he just told you he's grass!




Me no be grass, sha!

Tinubu is not God and not in anyway nearer to God.

All the anger is an act to systematically foist seyi on lagosians

One of the evil of Politicians is to create problems in the system to achieve their aim
Sanwo hasn't done anything, let the governor breathe

DMCY:
Na their wahala be that

Abi. As if Lagosians give a fvck. Which governor did tinubu not have issues with? He's a super greedy fellow. We will end his empire perpetually in Lagos, come 2027. Mark today's date. We gave sanwoolu the consolation vote so he could complete his terms but see what he's doing now. We don't even feel like there's a governor in Lagos. No visible development in place.

Political sins are never forgiven!
That's why I hate politics of any kind!

DeLaRue:
I found Mr Sanwo Olu's alleged conduct shocking.

What is his alleged conduct that you find shocking

Who cares about them. They will all be pushed out soon .

Bullshit. They are all acting and Egbon Sanwo is a Stooge.

Ghen ghen
It has started
First online propaganda and campaign to demonise their new victim
Then, He gets called Judas with his "bettayals" highlighted
Next is calls to impeach him
Sanwo might have been watching Fubara vs Wike with sick relish
But he wouldn't even envisage that he might soon become a scapegoat to teach any erring gov a lesson
I'm sorry but Sanwo may become the first Lagos gov to be impeached
The man holds absolute power now and nothing can stop him. Nothing

You always get carried away and deceived by the ridiculous. Do you ever learn?

What is ridiculous
Did I write the piece
Dispute what he wrote if you have your facts
I'm sure you're one of the clowns shouting Obasa is gone
You don't seem to know how your mafia operates

Such a long epistle to lick oga's scrotum.

What is the penalty for coup de tat in Nigeria? It is death. Sanwo-Olu planned a coup de tat against the god of Politics and he deserves the right punishment. However, the Gid of Politics in his magnanimity gave the coup plotter a Presidential pardon. The coup plotter should be grateful forever

Una dey muzz me for this site. A governor should seek the president's approval to remove the speaker of his own state house of assembly? He is a Governor , not an appointee.

Presdo should go and rest. He has controlled lagos state for too long.

He is now presdo of Naija and should channel all his effort in bettering the lives of Nigerians but not to fight over the control of lagos when there is a seating governor.

Same way presdo has right to do whatsoever he likes in presiding over Nigeria and consolidating his political ground, the governor of lagos state has same right in governing his state. He needs no one's approval as long as it's for the consolidation of his political ground.

That's my take on this.

Mjshexy:
So the governor should have rigged the election in favour of Tinubu because he was in charge of the state's resources just like other evil minded governors did against the votes of the masses! This writer is one of the main cause of the problems Nigerians are facing today, how wicked and conscience-dead can people be

THAT'S IT AS THEY HAVE SUCCESSFUL RIG OTHER STATE FAVOR

This is Democracy not a Dynasty.

What constitution are you guys quoting from

ZombieTAMER:
Tinubu is all about his personal interest

he has absolutely nothing to offer Nigeria

You are right. You can now go back to your drinking joint before your friends finish the Ogogoro

Thank God APC supporters are coming out gradually to admit that they select local government chairman and counselors not the people voting them into power.How can a country move forward when the president detect who becomes governor, local government chairman etc.
