So now u r interested in Presidency? When we were telling some of you in 2015 to join those of us igbos that saw the handwriting on the wall n aligned with APC you were calling us unprintable names. It's now in 2019 that you woke up. You guys are jokers!... When I lost hope on igbo presidency was in 2018 when I discovered that my people are comfortable playing the victim card that has never taken us anywhere politically since Independence. No

Igbo presidency gbakwa oku!

I have always been in support of igbo presidency, I just would not support any Tom dick and Harry in the name of igbo presidency. I can't loose my conscience because of it either, psychophansy isn't the way to go APC has been a far more terrible party than their predecessor. You can't build good on evil.

Joshua Dariye was still paid even in prison. So Uzor Kalu will still be paid if he is finally convicted. Politics sweet sha.....

Yes...He has been convicted of the crimes committed
If the appeal court overturns it, would he still be an ex-convict?

Nope. Overturning means that the appeal court has examined the judgment of the lower court n found it lacking.

This means that Abians will be one senator short. They are the real losers here, while OUK stays in prison and keep collecting allowances and salary and yet not doing anything for his senatorial zone.

They should initiate a recall for him, so that new elections can be conducted for the zone.

He has been convicted already. I suppose what you meant by finally convicted is , if the appeal court or supreme court doesn't overturn his conviction.

Isn't Okorocha in APC? He can be the APC presidential candidate. So stop crying like if there ain't any Igbo politician in APC, I forgot Ogbonnaya Onu, Chris Ngige, Geoffrey Onyeama, these are people Buhari trusts to have around him. Ain't they good enough for you?

The truth is, that I'll rather have a "Yaradua" as president than any established Igbo politician I know of.

Then why should he be imprisoned when he hasn't exhausted all legal means?

criminal cases go from the lower court to the appeal court then to Supreme. I
This case has been in the high court since 2007. Was almost abandoned until this government came into office.

So, in criminal cases once you have been convicted of the crime you go to jail n then appeal.

Finally orji uzor kalu was sold a dummy.
All this is just to frustrate igbo presidency come 2023
You people speak with sides of the mouth. Initially , you said once you join APC, your sin is forgiven. Has Kanu sin now be forgiven? You people are truly the enemy of this country

I understand but In my opinion it’s wrong because someone can be wrongly convicted. The person should exhaust all possible legal options before been sent to prison.

That's how law operate everywhere in the world.
A person is convicted then he or she can appeal. There was this story in Georgia U.S.A who was convicted of a crime he didn't commit. It took his legal team 10 years to prove his innocence.

I don't think I have said so on this platform or any other social media platforms. Even if one were to say so would it be a lie? Atiku was a saint in APC and thieve in PDP, tinubu, oshomole, Amaechi, akpabio, ganduje, all buttress the point.

Keep quiet. Jonathan prosecuted Tinubu while he was in power years ago and Tinubu was declared not guilty.
