Do these SW APC people understand that TINUBU won't Rule forever.

All these actions will definitely backfire ..and when it does..

Nothing like Southern unity ooo

Wow so fast ?

Even faster than the signed electoral law by Tnubu!

I thought they closed work by 5pm today 😱

Is this the democracy Tinubu promised Nigerians in 2023? Seems Buhari was a saint.

Very obvious that the self accalmed master strategist is jittery of his opposition .



APC has returned Nigeria to the stone age, no progress made since snatching power from PDP with deceit and lies.

David mark, rauf, bolaji Abdullahi you can't just appoint yourself from your bedroom in a party you are not a member.

My own is that the opposition is too docile.

All these trash can’t be happening and they will be there just issuing statements.

Everyday, “we condemn” “we condemn”…

If they are not serious then let them stop wasting our time.

You’re also opposition now. You self no small for this life. Oya mobilize and enter street tomorrow now. Let’s put your street credibility to test. No be everything be Cho Cho Cho. Show workings.

I will never support a one party system. Without opposition there won't be democracy. Now is getting clearer that the ruling party are jittery. And I wonder why?

I support APC but if they intent to strangle every opposition, I will simply withdraw whatever support I have for them.

Opposition criticisms are not death sentence. Most times those criticisms reshape your administration.

Relax Nigerians. Paul Biya wannabe has no pathway to re-election.

PDP, Jonathan have failed Nigerians, says Tinubu

ACN leader lashes govt on economy, security
President Goodluck Jonathan’s administration is confused about how to tackle Nigeria’s challenges, especially poverty and insecurity, a leader of the newly-formed All Progressives Congress (APC), Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, has said.

He said the Federal Government promised peace and security, but under its “unwatchful eye” insecurity has grown and Boko Haram “has turned large tracts of northern Nigeria into no man’s land”.


But, a bright future, he said, is on the horizon as the APC, which he called “the government in-waiting”, would rescue Nigeria from its confused state.


“As leaders of the new party and government in-waiting, we intend to pursue dynamic, time-tested and bold policies that will liberate our people by making sure our wealth works for us,” Tinubu said.

Nigerians, said Tinubu, have become increasingly divided as a people because the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) government continues to take faulty steps in addressing poverty and injustice.

“They have ignored the cause and gone after the symptoms,” the former Lagos State Governor told a packed audience inside the Grand Committee Ballroom, Westminster Hall, House of Parliament, London on Monday. He identified failed policies on power, employment, economy and security as evidence of bad leadership.


Tinubu, the keynote speaker at the British African Diaspora Conference, spoke on “Leadership, national development and the people”.

He urged the Federal Government to apply a consistent policy of targeted law enforcement operations along with an active programme of economic development, negotiations and potential amnesty for penitent Boko Haram members.

He said rather than take this step, the nation has been treated to series of government inaction and indiscriminate use of force, which culminated in the declaration of a state of emergency in three states.


“The Jonathan government set up a special Committee on Boko Haram and Security matters, but sadly before they could perform, he declared State of Emergency in three Northern states: Yobe, Borno and Adamawa.

“This is symptomatic of a confused leadership. If there is security in this jumbled policy, neither I nor the majority of Nigerians can find it!”

To the fomer Lagos governor, if Nigeria is to mature as a democracy, its electoral system must be improved. He decried the fact that those who control the system manipulate elections with such impunity that they now see misconduct without sanction as a normal way of life.


Said he: “Look at the recent controversy surrounding election of the Nigerian Governors Forum (NGF) chairman… A group comprising all the nations’ governors could not even conduct a simple 35-person election without a disputed outcome.

“With this recent experience, I fear the length those in power would go and the means they would employ to manipulate results when the battleground is the entire nation and the stakes are the general elections in 2015.

“The NGF debacle symbolises a disdain for democracy and the popular will. If we are to save Nigeria, we must rescue the electoral process from its abusers,” Tinubu said.

In his view, a great philosophical gulf separates the government from the progressives. “This current Nigerian government is a retrogressive one. Much of what they claim as growth is but the harsh redistribution of wealth from the bottom to the top. The bottom gets squeezed while the top expands. They are serving us the salad of corruption.

“They consume our today and squander the nation’s tomorrow. For 14 years, the PDP-led government cannot turn anything around. A new leadership is required to put a stop to this.”

Tinubu criticised Nigeria’s economic policies, saying the economy is being reconstructed “as an oasis for a small few and a stark desert for the many” while the government pretends to endorse the same budget-cutting austerity policies as much of Europe.

“We are not Europe; we are a Third World economy. That these policies have failed in European nations with higher standards of living than Nigeria gives our leaders no concern.”

Tinubu said the people live in dire straits, yet the government would rather waste the money than spend it on public benefit because they do not believe the people deserve it.

He said the progressives would bring pragmatic solution to the country’s woes because in their approach to the political economy, they do not rely on textbook answers as they do not “live in textbooks.

He said: “We live in the real world and thus seek answers from real world experiences. Here is a real world fact: No large nation has ever attained sustained growth without government running budget deficits to build the required infrastructure and without other government policies promoting development of the key industries that would become the spine of national development.

“Here is another such fact: No populous nation ever attains prosperity solely by extracting its raw material to exchange them for the finished goods of other large nations. We must industrialise and diversify our economy

“It is for this reason – to save the nation from the stranglehold of permanent poverty and poor governance – that the members of the progressive opposition political parties have decided to put aside personal ambition (including my own ambition) to form a new party, the All Progressives Congress (APC). We do this because Nigeria has entered a critical state of economic depression.”

According to Tinubu, because of the unfair nature of the electoral processes and the gross imbalance of its political economy, the people have been props in a drama for which they should have been the main characters. “We must change this,” he said.

He said the progressives must move Nigeria away from a place where the whims and narrow wishes of self-centered reactionary elite dictate the fate of over 150 million people.

“On our side, we will take our chances with a free and fair election, for we shall offer the people an innovative programme consisting of a national industrial policy that includes radical infrastructural development and employment targets,” he said.

The former Lagos governor spoke of “the Glorious Nigerian Revolution”, which he said has nothing to do with force of arms.

His words: “The Revolution of which I speak has two major parts. First, is the peaceful conversion of our quasi-democracy into a full-fledged one. Second, is the implementation of policies turning the political economy away from its retrogressive, elitist bearings.

“We seek policies pointing in a progressive direction affording the average person a chance at a dignified life. This will be through the provision of gainful employment, quality education and essential social services for those who need the helping hand of government to survive.

“I see no shame in believing progressive government can improve the political economy and the lives of the people.”

Opposition criticisms are not death sentence. Most times those criticisms reshape your administration.

In the past hours, I have seen several APC supporters voice out similar views. With this move, Tinubu has dropped the ball and unravelled himself. It clearly shows that he has already conceded victory to the opposition if the election were to be decided through the ballot. He has the data we all have, which clearly shows no realistic pathway to re-election. We expect more desperate acts as the days go by. His legacy is already in tatters and posterity will judge him harshly.

Is this ignorance?

Let's assume you didn't know the entire NWC resigned and handed over to caretaker committee

Even the Judiciary knows this but chooses to pass a useless judgement

Good.

Atiku/obi, want to grab other people property and run away with it.

Can't they form a new party like NDC.

Wait haven't you been littering this place with the fact there's no Southern unity?

Or who said ANYONE rules forever?

You are just rehashing what's common knowledge, nothing profound-just childish submissions!

And doesn't this further your "cause"...so chill and let's play the"own goal" na!

Tinupoo just want to plunge the CORNtree 🌽 into chaos... That's his aim so that they won't be elections to push him out...







A wise f00l he is!

This is exactly my fear, it will be referenced by future leaders, and judging by what we know about our politicians, the future leader may do worse than what is happening now.....

I hope the north is seeing these.....let them vote wisely come January next year 🙏

INEC should be careful the way they are going with all these temporary cancellation of parties. I hope they are not indirectly working for the APC because Its almost looking too suspicious as if they are working for APC

This issue can be sorted before the election campaigns. Calling someone unprintable names here will change nothing. David Mark and his team should go and do the needful

You are absolutely spot on. In as much as I m not partisan, you can't just hijack a political party and it's structure. Due process has to be followed. That is the way to go

Is there no pending court case about leadership tussle in ADC? Is it Tinubu who instituted the case or the Deputy chairman of ADC who had been in his position before David Mark and Co hijack the nwc? If pdp went through the same experience until court determines who the real leaders are why should adc matter be different?

Don't gaslight people into doing nonsense because some people are doing nonsense the rule of law must apply to everyone.

This is very commendable from the INEC

Did he promise democracy? I don't think so. All I remember is he promised to continue from where Buhari stopped.

This nonsense revert to status quo is a nonsense legal ruling . Judges should receive sense and be specific with their rulings . Revert back to the pre-David mark NWC or retain the David mark NWC until judgement. It is a very unintelligent style of ruling that is subjective to different interpretations. Now APC seems to have given INEC the interpretation to use . This is why no one trusts our judiciary. They are a bunch of criminals !!!

Abi oh.
Very good advice to the online warrior. Na today INEC dey follow Court order? If dem no follow Court order democracy is dead and if dem follow Court order democracy is buried.
I was so pissed off when INEC listed the names of Mark and Aregbe on their website while there was dispute. How can someone just wake up one day to buy a political party without making sure all stakeholders and founders of the party will share the money?
You buy a party carry money give a section of the owners neglecting the others just like buying the property of a polygamous man who died without will without making sure everyone will sign. I expect such from Obi but I didn't think Mark would make that mistake being a military man.
That's why Aregbe has been silent. This is shameful.

How ? Yes I get they are trying to uphold the rule of law . However they should have sought a better understanding of the ruling and seek clarification . It is annoying and gives the impression that there is a conspiracy to break opposition parties . I don’t like ADC or APC . But Atleast let all parties have a legal and constitutional level playing field. The sad thing is the precedence been set. Because APC seems to be using these werey rulings now does not mean APC will not be on the receiving end in the future . PDP used vague suspension of governors under emergency rule during Obasanjo , ApC used it against PDP . If they don’t change it , another president will do it again .
