That is a big lie, forged by who, who received the letter? If that is the case let everyone of you be arrested for proper investigation
Arrested how? This is what tinubu wants and plans for.

APC r the ones funding that former chairman, just lik they did with lamidi Apapa and Abure
Why are you leaving out Obi who may NOT have realised he was being funded by the Jagaban of Borgu huh

Party-hopping Utomi was incidentally the first presidential candidate of ADC.

lexylaw40:
The “president-elect” saw in Obi's presidential bid, a good chance to reduce the winning chances of the presidential candidate of the PDP, Atiku Abubakar.

The governorship candidate of the Labour Party (LP) in Oyo State, Tawfiq Akinwale, [/b]on Wednesday [b]stated that the “President-elect” Bola Tinubu asked popular economist, Prof Pat Utomi to step down for Peter Obi in the buildup to the 2023 general elections.

Akinwale made this revelation while he appeared as a guest on a radio programme on 101.7 YES FM, Ibadan, Oyo State, while alleging that Obi received campaign funds from Utomi, whom he described as Tinubu's "son."

The LP aspirant, who spoke in Yoruba language, said "In the buildup to the 2023 elections, Obi who had purchased the nomination form of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), suddenly announced his exit from the party.

"Initially, Pat Utomi had secured the LP's presidential ticket, but when Peter Obi said he resigned from the PDP and joined the LP. Bola Tinubu, a master political strategist, quickly told Utomi, that everyone knows to be his son to step down for Obi.

"The “president-elect” saw in Obi's presidential bid, a good chance to reduce the winning chances of the presidential candidate of the PDP, Atiku Abubakar.

"What Peter Obi didn't know is much more that what he knows, he started collecting campaign funds from Utomi, while Tinubu was giving the money to Utomi.

"This went on until Obi's presidential campaign got to a stage it went beyond target. Obi was used without him knowing," Akinwale said after announcing his departure from the party.

Obi defected to the LP after resigning his membership of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and also withdrawing from the presidential race under the party.

The former governor consequently joined the race for the party’s presidential ticket, while Professor Pat Utomi, in June 2022 stepped down for him to emerge as the presidential candidate of the Labour Party, LP, unopposed in Asaba, Delta State.

It feels like the opposition in Nigeria are controlled opposition and not true ones. Though they are thieves, they often love to leave a loophole in any opposition party they go to that will cause internal issues. If Mr Nafiu said he has not resigned and the documents were forged then ADC should do an internal investigation among themselves. This is the downside of hijacking existing parties, you can not expect everyone to surrender what they have been building. The reason Tinubu APC feels like a one party system is because the opposition he is facing are the worst opposition in Nigeria history. The most disorganized, the most selfish driven, the most confused. They act like they are controlled opposition meant to fool the public. You can't tell me with amount of resources and influence the opposition has they can't create a new party from scratch built on their own principles. ADC was greatly unknown before they went in, the time they used buying people out should have been allocated to setting something new without any resistance.

Nigerians should just accept this people in top leadership positions are all the same and should be all removed if we are to go forward. Let's try people with no ties to the current pool of leaders and political parties we have. Instead recycling the same set of people who once dined and drink together. People who will insult themselves today and praise themselves tomorrow. It's clear insults is like friendly banters among themselves and not taken as serious criticism.

If he said the former national chairman declared he should take over , then let him provide theevidence . A video of him saying the above eill suffice. However if he did not officially resign too , then the case should be decided in court .

Atiku and Obi might , however remotely, win the elections but Nigerians should brace for another useless set of spineless leaders . If this issue has been there since last year august/September and they could not sort it out fast, it highlights the reasons they are always jumping from one party to another. Lack of leadership skills.

I dont like tinubu . I dont think I will ever vote for him but he is much better than this clueless bunch

Can't Atiku, Amaechi, Obi, Kwakwanso and Co form a new party?

Registering a fresh unknown party shouldn't be too hard since all the ready-made alternatives are a no-go.

This would save all of them this mess.
Why should they? When there are already-made platforms? Plus... The requirements are stringent!

Oga, it could not have been forced. This was you behind David Mark the day the coalition was formed
He has collected billions of naira as bribes to scatter the party internally for the APC and Tinubu.
What do you expect! Including that Ralph Nwosu of a man.

You will see that every form of kata kata inside both PDP, Lp, Nnpp and ADC will stabilize after the general election just watch and see.

They know what they're doing.

The apc is obviously sponsoring him someone that couldn't even previously afford a charge and bail lawyer as deputy chairman is now suddenly can afford to hire a whole 3 SANs for this case.

As in ehhh, and someone calls himself opposition, there's a crisis with your party and you took it to court? In the interest of who? And you want us to believe you want your party to be win the next election.

Why not put the difference aside and work internally? And if you wish Nigerians well, why not allow that to slide for a better position when your party scales through. I'm not saying he shouldn'tfight for the right thing, but certain interest should be beyond person's and about a bigger goal. Haba!
I thought you are smart. Can’t you see the hand of Tinubu here

Only ADC has prototype resignation form not even letter .

A form where everything is already drafted, what type of party is this ? Why won’t they allow the person write the resignation letter by him/her self ?

This is not the time to harass him.
It is a time for humility to find every way to make him withdraw his case and get any other aggrieved ADC stakeholders sorted out if we are to have any tiny chance of redeeming our country from the worst rogue and most incompetent balablu propagandist in Aso Rock.
Well said, hope the party leaders choose this option, only GOD know how much they offer this man.to choose this part

Posterity will never judge this Nafiu right since he has made himself a willing tool for the destruction of the people's wish and aspiration for a better Nigeria. The slained by the bandits will keep pursuing him in his dreams.

Stop writing trash! In Mr Nafiu's statement, he said he attended a meeting where they were to welcome new members into the party. He did not say he attended a meeting where Mr Mark was to be made chairman of the party.

Something is wrong somewhere! I have always know most of the politicians in Adc to be pretenders and hijackers ! I just pray obidunces don’t turn on ameachi ! Cos Atiku has anointed him to be his vice not the agulu joker.
Cry harder, do you need a bucket?
Re: ADC Crisis: ‘My Signature Was Forged’ — Nafiu Bala Disowns Resignation Letter by Kindledlight(m): 3:17pm On Apr 03
It’s very obvious, same was done to Sam Anyanwu .

Some politicians think Nigerians are fools or stupid, anyway some are, like those ones supporting them and even blaming the president for their inactivities.

They tried to register a new party from the beginning..

Remember ADA?

But Tinubu and INEC kept frustrating them and didn't want to register them.

That's why they had to form alliance with an old party.
