Don't know what to believe again.

Change is inevitable

podosci:
The police, The army, Dss, NSCDS, Navy, Airforce.......Which of them has taken up the responsibility to Investigate or authenticate the leaked tape?
DId the senate even bother to investigate the allegations?

We should stop kidding ourselves in this country......This is not an APC/PDP issue, This a Nigerian issue

These Senators bring shame to Nigeria!

It is NOT about whether the allegation has been proved in court or not.

The principle is that "We elect Senators to represent our interest".
In a "Ministerial confirmation Scenario", 2/3rds of Senators have to approve someone, to be confirmed as Minister.
That is the ONLY LEGITIMATE CONDITION for CONFIRMATION

When Obanikoro's nomination was rejected the first time, Senate president, David mark who himself is very Anti-Democracy, right form past, staged a coup within the Chambers of the Senate!

David Mark simply changed the rules by "asking senators to vote on whether Obanikoro should be accorded "Waka Pass" or Not!
So, from being refused confirmation, David MArk changed it to "Waka Pass"... a scenario which other Senators rejected and protested against.

In his air of undemocratic impunity, which is the hallmark of the GEJ/PDP administration, David Mark simply approved Obanikoro by himself... without the requisite 2/3rds majority!

As it stands today, Obanikoro is NOT CONFIRMED by the Nigerian Senate as Minister of State for Defense.

He is an impostor to that office and when the time is ripe, he would be jailed for such acts.
Senator David Mark should also be impeached (and then prosecuted) because his acts are treasonable.

tatosh:
Jonathan a very desperate insincere president and a best friend to corruption. If a president can closely embrace impunity even upto this point when he's trying to canvass for votes, then we should know what to expect if ever he is reelected.

Many of us know in our heart of heart that this is not the kind of president we want, unless you're not a true Nigerian or you've let ethnic sentiments and a few naira notes cloud your better judgement.

Looking at the history books of fully formed democracies, our democracy is young and at an evolving stage which explains the imperfections of the PDP & APC. In order to keep evolving, we need to be able to CHANGE! governments till we finally get it right or else we will be on one position forever. This is a fact!

APC may not be a perfect party yet but I say with conviction that things can never be this terrible under General Buhari such that the people will now be taken for granted to a point of derision. Things like impunity, corruption, unaccountability will be on the fast decline.

Let us embrace CHANGE.

SAI BUHARI!
SAI APC!

See who is talking about being desperate here, GEJ is d President while APC n Buhari is bend loose to take power by for force by fire, is that not extreme desperation? no Wonder APC don't know what law is talking about. how can u guarantee Nigerians the rule of law?

no be only Navy,you for call FBI join...

Tell APC to take it to court,even fayemi is not even showing more concern in this case cos he knows it is all lies...

APC should take him to court ASAP

Like PDP, like APC, none is free of corruption. They can only allege,none can sue the other.

Goddex:
Why is APC afraid to take the so called Ekitigate to court?

IF GEJ HAS SAID THE EKITI SAGA CAN NOT BE INVESTIGATE BECAUSE THEY ARE STILL WAITING FOR CAPTAIN KOLI WHO HAS ALREADY RELEASED THE DISGRACEFUL AND EVIL PERPETRATED BY PDP.

THEN WHAT DO WE EXPECT FROM SENATORS WHO ALSO EAT FROM PRESIDENT TABLE.

PDP RIGGING FROM TIME IMMEMORIAL.

THEY CAN NOT WIN FREE, FAIR AND CREDIBLE ELECTION.

My brother, you're wrong. The fact that you aren't aware doesn't mean that nothing is being done...Agencies have to silently do their work and not to advertise daily whenever they cough...When Retired Justice Uwais son left for ISIS fight; that was the point most people knew that security agencies have been on him...

And what is the "point or benefit" of this knowledge..... when it is NOT put to any good use?
Did they stop him from going or juts looked-on?
Should he not have been under 24hrs watch and 'locked down' if he attempts to travel?
When he returns in future, do you know how many lives will be terminated.... by just this one act of ineptitude?

Whynotthetruth:
Finally; on this case, Obanikoro has a case in court. Going b
y our CONSTITUTION, which we must respect, he remains innocent until convicted by a court of competent jurisdiction..

A lot of Nigerians like you may mean well for this country but you are too myopic and maybe ignorant, to see the "Big Picture".

No one is saying Obanikoro should not be confirmed because he has a case in court.
That is NOT the issue or Process of confirmation.
Read my earlier post, if you will.

Confirmation is vested in the hands of our representatives (Senators) based on two-thirds simple majority.
Even if he is a convicted criminal like Bode Geroge, he can still be confirmed, as long as he can get 2/3 of Senators to support his confirmation. Period.
This did not happen in the case of Obanikoro.
David Mark, the Senate President, SUBVERTED THE PROCESS of CONFIRMATION by asking Senators to vote on "bow and walk", otherwise known as "Waka-Pass" Confirmation!

David Mark did not ask Senators in support of confirmation to raise their hands.... so he can see if they are in the majority, to the point of two-thirds!
Instead of that, he said Obanikoro should just "take a bow"?
This is what angered the APC and other Senators in the house. (Subversion of the Process of conformation) and they walked out since David Mark will not listen to reason.
Can you Ever see such thing happening in the America Senate or British Parliament?

We dont have a Democracy in this country.
Our Judiciary is also under the influence and pressure of the Presidency otherwise, a court would simply rule that confirmation as ILLEGAL.
When we have people like David Mark still running around as Democrats simply because he wears Agabda. , we are still a long way off.

Hmmmm,ekitigate is now a case where pple won't knw if d investigation is on.Broda!do u knw d respondses of d FG,DSS,PDP 2wards d ekitigate issue?There is no investigation going on cos d last tyme we heard d DSS saying d mole who released d audio should come out b4 they start any investigation.That aside,on a moral ground.Is senate justified with what they did yesterday?

if APC are not satisfied,they should take it to supreme court,since they were the one that release the tape ,let them come out with the eye witness.

They think everyone in Nigeria is as deluded as APC fans who tend to believe any rubbish their leaders spit out ?

Nonsense.

Is there no level to which we cannot sink as a country. Abaribe and senate should know that it is not about guilt, it is about morals. In the midst of humans with their sensibilities intact, should Jonathan have presented Obanikoro as candidate? But if he can still retain Moro as minister why should anyone be suprised. The appointment takes from Jonathan than it adds to him. See, the truth is the Yorubas still have a sense of repulsion bordering on self righteousness (however unfounded). Or how many tribes have provision for compelling a king to commit suicide (si igba) for acts considered as abomination. So with the bunch he has decided to back in the south west, likes of Kashamu, Fayose, Omisore, Obanikoro, Femi Fani Kayode, let's wait and see how far they will take him. He should go and ask the Akintolas, Fani-Kayode, Osuntokuns. Meanwhile, many of those supporting Obanikoro are not even Yoruba so they don't understand what's going down.

Even Shekau could be appointed an ambassador! Innocent until he is proven guilty by a court! Abi, no be so?

By the way, how many Shekaus have they killed, without proven guilty by a court? Yet, they are still looking for Shekau!

That is the "double-speak" of these PD-Pigs!

When it suits them, they are for "rule of law", .... when it does not, they are for "impunity".

Well, if Nigerians decide to retain GEJ for another four years, l will give them a standing ovation becaus it seems suffering is their lot in life.

So it's an allegation...one that threatens the very existence of Nigeria's democracy. A sane senate will pend Obanikoro's ministerial confirmation until investigations are conducted and conclusively closed. Nothing like that in Nigeria...bunch of agbaya threatening other senators with EFCC cases...lol. What a huge joke.

so why do you guys present buhari after all allegation about his involvement on the death of corp members, I mean you guys presented him to us after seeing allegation about his certificate forgery. There was allegation that buhari murdered democracy yet you are one of those front hard liner about buhari coming back as president. You better judge yourself before you start judging others

myhoodlink:


Well said. 1millon likes. Same way we see so many persons blaming GEJ for street roads not constructed in the States. Many still fail to differentiate between the various tiers of government. Imagine someone complaining of high store (shop) rent on GEJ or even imposition of a king on GEJ. May God help us o. God bless President GEJ and grant him wisdom to pilot the affairs of this country till 2019.

Whynotthetruth:
Truth is that MOST Nigerians don't understand the workings of constitutional democracy; separation of powers and/or independence of different arms of government...maybe as a result military hangover mentality...

They want Jonathan to throw about power as president while people should be jailed once condemned by section of media or opposition as if these are judiciary...

APC senators are damned wrong and displayed crass ignorance...

They are ignorant and that is why they are bad market.
Can a blind lead the blind they will all fall inside a pit.

If the criminal obaninuEWON was an APC man,those hediots wouldn't have confirmed him. Criminals making laws since 100AD

I have always known David Mark to be a thief, greedy and a very Useless man.
In their silly mind and other PDPïgs, they think that it is Him and that dumbo vp will be fighting for presidency come 2019. In their dreams... Useless old fools..

Finally; on this case, Obanikoro has a case in court. Going by our CONSTITUTION, which we must respect, he remains innocent until convicted by a court of competent jurisdiction. Even the Ekitigate issue isn't enough to stop him until a court of competent jurisdiction says so. NOTE that; if we go by APC mode of reasoning here; staunch APC senators in the house like Senator Danjuma Goje, Senator Saraki and others should also vacate their senate seats because they have cases with EFCC...

Did u say silently do their work?...No one has done any investigation about that tape...No one single word from the DSS regarding that Tape...No where in the world will a person be alleged to be involve in election malpractice and Same person will be put forward as minister, only in Nigeria such thing ever happen

My bros; you are 200% wrong and ignorant of due process and house rules...Our constitution is SUPREME...

On Uwais son; maybe intelligence report gave him out based on that they saw his contact as last dialled number in Muttalab phone...So is it enough reason to arrest him...NO...but they invited him still for interrogation but people including CSO remember case of Ogwuche protested and he was left due to lack of strong evidence...He was placed under surveillance but he was only doing legitimate business within then...they relaxed and moved to other issues and he absconded...Let's criticize with some insight plz...

On Obanikoro; house rules says that former senators should be granted the privilege of just taking a bow...All other ministerial nominees who were former senators took a bow...So why should Obanikoro case be different....HOUSE RULES SHOULD NOT BE ABUSED BY APC BECAUSE IT DIDN'T FAVOUR THEM...

BTW Bode George is not an ex-convict plz...There's supreme court judgement in his favour...

Judiciary under Jonathan has improved... El-Rufai in APC commended Jonathan on that sometime ago...

Even if obanikoro was convicted, they will still confirm his appointment, leave story. 16 is greater than 19

If the head is rotten, the whole body will smell foul.
Nigerians have been taken for a ride for too long.
The shamelessness that our politicians and other public
officials exhibit is grossly disgusting.
I now really hope that true CHANGE comes to Nigeria on March 28

So nah these people dey make laws bah?see Nigeria leg for inside gutter.Only God can save us now.We need change even it it will carry dem APC senators join the PDP thieves go gallow

chronique:
Spot on! If we go by the analogy of the APC reps,people like Saraki,Remi Tinubu and the likes,shouldn't be in the senate. However,should Obanikoro be found guilty of the accusations against him,it's only logical and ethical that he faces the music. But where a court of law hasn't pronounced him guilty,He should be accorded the rights he deserves as a former minister. Afterall,it is public knowledge that Tinubu is a criminal but if you ask APC folks,they'd ask you which court of law promounced him as one. So whatever is good for the goose,is good for the gander.

The question u have to ask ur self is, has any investigation been done regarding that tape...nothing from all our law enforcement agencies...So ask ur self why have they not investigated the tape
