ZeroTolerance:
Tinubu wants Kogi to burn

So will Tinubu cause confusion and bring an end to APC

Pavarottii:

My brother 49k can vote. Get ur info right b4 coming here.

There are 49k registered voters but only 25k has voters card at the moment. That's the problem.

coolhamid:
A man would just sit down in his house in bourdillon, ikoyi and start imposing candidates on other states. Let the Kogi people decides, Faleke can't be representing people of lagos and later come to Kogi to rule the people of Kogi state, When we have competent people that are born and brought in the state that can govern.

Is it possible for a Kogi lawmaker to come down to lagos and rule?

Unfortunately, gang master Tinubu has done that in Osun State and got away with it.

And since Faleke is the deputy governorship candidate, he is on a better ground to become governor as the matter will end up at the Supreme court.

seunmsg:
Ordinarily, this matter should not generate so much controversy as it it currently generating if politicians are ready to do the right thing irrespective of personal interest. Audu and Faleke contested jointly and won the election. After Audu's death, it's only normal for Faleke to step up and take over the mandate.

Bringing in Yahaya Bello after over 90% of the election had been concluded and won is very pointless. It can never withstand any legal scrutiny. APC should do the right thing and stop courting trouble.

u can't be more logical, nice one.

EndTIME Yahaya Bello

EndTIME Faleke

EndTIME INEC

EndTIME Tinubu

EndTIME APC

SO TINUBU ACTUALLY KILLED ABUBAKAR AUDU
THE TRUTH IS GRADUALLY COMING OUT

I weep for the zoo.

someone will just sit in his air-conditioned office and spin tales by moonlight while hiding under the normal "our source" I did not read any official statement from Tinubu, his agent(s), servant(s) or any party representing his interest, to that effect.
Junk journalism representing their financial interest, using the name Tinubu to sell their papers.

Let me make one point clear here, tinubu should be politically wise enough to understand tha igala is majority and if they pullout of apc the party will crumble into a quagmire of its own making...as simple as dat

Pavarottii:

My brother 49k can vote. Get ur info right b4 coming here.

my bros it is not 49k votes it is about 25'k votes since it not registered voters that vote but voters with pvc and about 25 k has pvc

adaweezy:
Tinubu cant impose his will
Yahaya Bello is our candidate

Why didn't you go to court when Faleke who (by your claim) does not know anything about Kogi politics was made running mate to Audu?

Gelengelen:
igala people will vote for wada of pdp. they wont allow bello to rule them.

Yea, perhaps in 2019. But for this supplementary election, let every adult in the igala nation vote Wada, APC would still win Kogi gubernatorial elections by a margin of at least 16,000 votes.
At the moment, APC is leading by a margin of 41,000 votes. The polling units were supplementary elections would hold next month has a total of 49,000 registered voters, but only 25,000 of this 49,000 have PVC. I hope you now see the futility in the threat of the igala man? When hausa traditional rulers were massively mobilizing their people to collect their PVCs, the rest of the country was either too busy or were simply sleeping.
This Kogi gubernatorial election has long been won by APC,...... Wada and his igala tribesmen should try their luck again come 2019.

Ok is talking who is saying Bello when Oga said Faleke

You really need to understand the Taraba case before referring to it. PDP have no valid candidate in that election. They never participated at all in the election. And please note, winning a primary does not make an aspirant a valid candidate before the law, he must also choose a running mate and both of them must be presented to INEC within a stipulated period before their candidacy can be valid before the law.

As regards Kogi, the issue of having a valid primary before the law is to determine the candidate. In this case, Audu is the candidate and that is not in dispute. The law also provides for the candidate to choose his own deputy who will contest jointly with him. Without the deputy, his candidature is invalid irrespective of whether he wins the primary or not. So therefore, whoever he so chooses as his deputy is assumed to have jointly emerged from the primaries with him and will automatically step into his shoes when situations like this arises.


That Yahaya Bello participated in the primaries as no legal significance since he was not the winner. Faleke was validly nominated and he should legally step up and inherit the mandate since the election process as commenced already.

God bless you. This is so on point. I didnt even realise you have replied that person before writing my own response. Exactly my thought to this same poster.

But both Faleke and Bello are not Igalas,so how does that concern Tinubu with Igala?

Pavarottii:

The 49k cannot vote, only 35k has PVCs among them. It is you that needs to get your facts right and not the guy.

ShowYourCertificate:
APC won't last as a party. They are just a conglomeration of different politicians with different vested interests.

I wouldn't blame anyone who believes Tinubu was behind the grand scheme of making Faleke a deputy governor so that he will emerge as governor after killing Audu. If Buhari is not a dullard, he should be watching his back as well because Osinbajo must have been planted there for a reason. Tinubu has an agenda which is obviously different from those of Buhari or Kwakwanso or Rochas. They are not united as a party and thus will crumble.

Do you mean that Tinubu killed Audu?

The major contender, this Bello guy is not Igala for your information he is Ebira.

My friend there is also a moral case for the alternative candidate at the primaries. Audu had not completely won in order to 'activate' the powers of a vice. Faleke for all intents remains a 'nominee' until the elections are won. The same case making the ballot one for Audu is the same case making it one for the entire APC. Audu was not declared winner. The rocket had not lifted off. It was still on auxillary power when it exploded so its NASA's fault not the astronauts.

Tinubu, so you and your yorubastard brothers killed Audu just for a yoruba man, Falake to be governor of Kogi?

Your punishment is getting ready.

Pavarottii:

My brother 49k can vote. Get ur info right b4 coming here.

Pavarotti, am sorry to say this, but you are the one who has refused to be informed. Number of registered voters per state, per local government, per ward is public information, at least since as far back as Feb 2015. And so is the number of registered voters with PVC, per state, per local government, and per ward.
The polling units were supplementary elections would hold next month has a total of 49,000 registered voters, but only 25,000 of this 49,000 have PVC. I hope you now see the futility in the threat of the igala man?
The only way 49,000 can vote in kogi's supplementary election is if Card Readers and PVC won't be used, as it was used in the main election. That is the only way Wada can stand a chance,.....a very remote chance of returning to Lugard House, lokoja for a 2nd term. If Wada had honour, he ought to have conceded defeat already sef.

adaweezy:
Has the elections been concluded Yes or NO

Exactly. The elections had not been won so the APC remains in control.

Sheggy13:

But both Faleke and Bello are not Igalas,so how does that concern Tinubu with Igala?

that is wt am saying things are actually going the direction of pdp if am nt mistaking

It seems Mr Asiwaju has forgotten that Kogi is not Lagos and the law does not recognise faleti but Bello who came second in the last Apc primaries.

adaweezy:

Has the elections been concluded
Yes or NO

Yes o my brother

Gud that means u're actually an INEC official if not the state INEC chairman or let's assume u're God

Oya PDP can win
are you happy ?? they will close the 41,000 gap

anonimi:
Really?
This JagbaJantis of Bourdillon really takes us for FOOLS, walahi!
Someone who should be concerned that Faleke may be tried and jailed for electoral CRIME of double candidacy across two states is making noise.
Kogi people I pity una oh.
Anyway the APShit crooks are used to breaking our laws anyhow.

It seems you've made it your life's mission to fight Tinubu, I wonder why.

Which law is that? Keep fooling yourself on social media like this. The only candidate that can be recognize by law at this stage of election is the one registered with INEC irrespective of religion, tribe nor social affiliation.

If a principal steps out, his vice steps in: Faleke has a valid point here.

Tinubu's on side of truth on this. Hope APC people pushing for Bello watch trouble they are causing.

No legal significance I laugh in Spanish
Kindly Learn from the Learned fellows
It’s noteworthy to mention that any mistake by the APC and INEC could lead to the PDP taking advantage of such loophole. S87 of the Electoral act plays a pivotal role in delimiting the pool of candidates from which APC can pick its candidates from. The All progressives Congress had held a Direct primaries for the selection of its governorship candidate and Alhaji Yahaya Bello emerged as the runner up. Permit me to reproduce the provisions of S87 (1) (2) and (9) of the Electoral act
“-(1) A political party seeking to nominate candidates for elections under this Act shall hold primaries for aspirants to all elective positions.
(2) The procedure for the nomination of candidates by political parties for the various elective positions shall be by direct or indirect primaries.”
Alhaji Bello gains the advantage of this section has he participated in the primaries as well as screening stages conducted by the parties, the Deputy governorship candidate(Faleke) could have had the seat comfortably and staked a better claim if he had contested the primaries but its quite disheartening to find out that he didn’t S87(9) disqualifies him effectively
Where a political party fails to comply with the provisions of this Act in the conduct of its primaries, its candidate for election shall not be included in the election for the particular position in issue.
Section 141 of the electoral act also disqualifies any other candidate inclusive of Faleke, Mohammed Audu, Echocho and a host of others that may be interested in the governorship ticket as it reads thus
“An election tribunal or court shall not under any circumstance declare any person a winner at an election in which such a person has not fully participated in all the stages of the said election.”
On this basis it is not too difficult to see on what premise the All Progressives Congress bases its choice of Alhaji Yahaya Bello the Runner up in the APC Governorship primaries as its substitute for the late Prince Abubakar Audu
