Ziggylee:
Must Nigeria appoint old men as CJ?

Supreme Court judges are usually old because they are there for life or till they choose to retire. And they take turns becoming Chief Justice of Nigeria. You can check Supreme Court justices in the USA. Once they’re named to the bench by a president they can only leave of their own free will.

chudez0147:
Akpabio is not even in the green chambers. Olodo

I want him as senate President. I forgot this topic was speakership.

Racoon:
When did justice Ariwoola became wheelchair bound if not that he is up to something sinister here? How can he fairly dispense justice if he has challenges affecting his health? This is so shameless, disgusting and totally unacceptable.

What is the reaction of the NJC, body of benchers etc to all the allegations that have been flying around this corrupt man. From his unholy romance with Wike, corruption and high handedness in the SC giving rise to controversial rulings by the apex Court?

It is time the NJC should remove this disgrace of a CJN from office. This People Gazette may have been right after all. Bayo Onanuga the usual bloody fucking liar.

Meanwhile, Bola Ahmed Tinubu can't even rest in the Lagos he claimed he birthed and developed into a world class centre of excellence or any other part of Nigeria to rest.

But choose to travelled many miles across to a sane and cosy country devoid of the anti-social miscreants he gave landlord powers in his modern day Lagos to rest.Then later he will tell you he is doing you a favor by providing dividends of democracy. Meanwhile continue to rest in peace.

Gosh U guys are sooo dumb. Even my mum gets driven around wheelchairs in the airport and she's not disabled. A lot of older people use the service, just say U have trouble walking when u check in and they'll push you around. It's not difficult to get.
My mum uses it cos she gets confused by all the gates and flight connections.

OyeofIkoTuN:
Says people who lost ilorin..

Gettat

You know this is a picture of awolowo visiting the south south in 1956 right? The western region already had free primary education at that point.

Akpabio is who we want.
He was one of the best governors in the country during his tenure. People should be voted on their signature achievements.
We know what akpabio did, we know what tinubu did. Nobody can mention anything about Orji kalu or this Tajudeen Abass.

ppogba:
With your analysis, which means all the noise of " Benue state is in the bag" on the social media and Nairaland in particular were mere braggado without substance.

Indeed, elections are not won on Nairaland.

Didn't you hear 'LP will clear SE/SS' throughout the campaign? We told them south south is PDP stronghold with PDP governors. Obi only won 3 SS states. Elections are truly local.

Lies. This was a popular saying among igbos in the NCNC before Nigeria was created.
Even awolowo had to speak against it and was the reason he wanted secession included in the constitution of the new country, Nigeria. Awolowo suggested that they should create an FCT in a region that had no ancestry.

Ogbuefi2020:
No SW state government has constructed a befitting airport

Fashola built mm2 and it's definitely more beautiful than this.

kilonshele101:
They won’t just stop making noise about everything. From “Tinubu cannot win” to “The election was rigged” “They stole our mandate”

Now it’s no more about stolen mandate, it’s now “APC is panicking” “They didn’t see it coming” “Obi outsmarting Tinubu” “Obi putting Judiciary on trial” “Obi putting Nigeria on trial”

They are still coming back to shout “supreme court is corrupt” “Judiciary is corrupt” “Nigeria is gone” etc

They won’t just stop the noise

It's a mental sickness that needs to be named and given an acronym at this point.

The unending cycle of self aggrandizing delusions, psychopathic hatred, manipulations and bullying, followed by crushing defeat and narcissistic victim syndrome is pitiful.
Same cycle from ojukwu to ipob to whatever this is.

Felabrity:
You didn't see Lagos, Imo, Rivers, Ogun and other states padded results to reject?


What is that kerosene governor upto?

These criminals will call for a re-election

APC is not stupid. How can you have more votes than accredited voters? 7000 accredited voters in the ward, then you go and write 30,000 to meet up your shortfall in other areas. This is PDP rigging, the BVAS have rendered it illegal. Same thing PDPs Adeleke did in Osun.
The votes in a ward can’t be more than the accredited voters in that ward. It’s overvoting and INEC won’t want to go to court for that again since they lost the last time.

Wiseandtrue:
Keep shifting goal post

I wonder if Japan and China would have taken this long


You import some of their policies but turn blind eyes to those profitable to the masses

Ambode abandoned the blue line after fashola left. They had to refinance and get it back on track and it has now been completed. Sanwoolu started the red line in 2021 and he will complete it by May. Dts 2 years.

FabKidd2000:
I don’t understand. Has his first term not finished?

It ends in may. He started the red line during his tenure in 2021. He also continued the blue line from where fashola stopped. The blue line has now been completed and he has promised the red line will be completed before may.

They’ve still not announced Abia result? He even said thugs held Inec staff hostage for 36hrs and battered LP agent here:

Thugs have held INEC officials hostage in Abia state for 36 hours according to Alex Otti. The man is crying out... pic.twitter.com/RblnGuq8tb

Travesty! Why are all the nollywood actors, chioma chukwuka and Kate henshaw silent about this? Are these states not part of the country?

Not reading any nonsense. Bye! Remember Peter Obi is coming.

I see the delusions don’t stop.

So why the lie on this thread that named all his lawyers as yoruba:

Beremx:
For the fact that he didn't condemn the attack on Igbos during the election by thugs, he's not different from Bayo Onanuga.
Congratulations to the civil service

See this one.

DeeBaDan:
Those of you supporting Tinubu and APC's economic realities in Lagos don't know you're supporting a slavist system


Go and investigate the states monthly earnings and the salary it pays its workers


A day will come, the scales will fall from your eyes


I'm neither igbo, nor yoruba


You all good luck

Who cares what you are? Ask Ur state governor to offer free transportation to its civil servants first before U yarn dust, cos dts the least thing Lagos provides its staff.

Also if it's the monthly earnings dts peppering you, ask your state governor to increase your states monthly earnings too. That did not fall from heaven, Tinubus APC did that. We were all here during Marwas governorship and know how the Lagos state civil service was.

Yes O. The best civil service in the country. Lagos civil servants even have gym memberships and cheap housing.

Congrats father!

AwokenVawulence:
Notice that all this happens in apc state

Rivers, Abia and bayelsa are APC?

infogeneral:
Osun state is traditionally a PDP state

Lol, no it’s not. Osun has been APC since 1999. They’re tired now and have gone PDP and don’t want anything to do with APC

The opposite happened in Ekiti & Kwara state. Now they don’t want anything to do with PDP and are voting APC all through.

Oyo state switches party every 4-8years. Consistently.

Ode. Learner. All these journey just come sef.

This one doesn’t know how much they hate her guts.

Nigerians go to the polls to elect governors in 28 of the country’s 36 states today, as well as 993 lawmakers who will represent constituencies in the state houses of assembly.

Some suspected thugs have hijacked electoral materials and burnt them in Bayelsa State, in southern Nigeria.

SaharaReporters learnt on Saturday that election materials were hijacked by some angry youths in Otuokpoti Ward II of Ogbia Local Government Area of Bayelsa State.

It was learnt that the youths proceeded to burn the materials.
Officials of the Independent National Electoral Commission were forced to flee the area due to the threats of violence.

See delusions.

Lol

Phantom233:
Why not reject the roads and social amenities provided by this kingdom of man ? ,una de craze

But they believe in paying their taxes, so of course they can use the roads and amenities.

This particular doctrine is actually scriptural. Jesus Christ was never interested nor ever commented on the politics of Israel. He did not care about the occupation and rulership of Israel by the Roman empire, a whole occupation over God's people.

He was only concerned about the kingdom of God in men's hearts. All he said was give to Ceasar what belongs to ceaser (i.e obey your government and pay your taxes). His disciples also towed the same line after his death.

Win Your Polling Units For PDP Or Forfeit Your Salaries, Allowances –Enugu Governor, Ugwuanyi, Threatens Political Appointees
March 17, 2023
NEWS


Governor Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi of Enugu State has directed political appointees to ensure that candidates of the Peoples Democratic Party win in their polling units in Saturday's election or forfeit their salaries and allowances.

This directive comes as the battle for the soul of the Enugu State treasury and who controls the Lion Building Government House intensifies after the party suffered a crushing defeat in the February 25, 2023, presidential and National Assembly elections in the state.

Governor Ugwuanyi was not spared in the humiliating defeat as he also lost his bid to represent Enugu North Senatorial District in the National Assembly.
The governor lost to Labour Party candidate, Chief Okey Ezea.

Despite being the ruling party in the state, the PDP only won two political seats, one senatorial seat and one House of Representatives seat, while the Labour Party took the rest.

Like a wounded lion, the government announced the suspension of salaries and allowances of workers and political appointees till after the elections, threatening that payments would be subject to delivering their polling units for PDP.

In a memo SaharaReporters obtained on Friday, "Cessation of salaries and other allowances" addressed to all local government political appointees, dated February 28, 2023 with Ref: OSLG/EC/PA/002, which was signed by Donatus C. Ugwu for the Executive Chairman of Igbo-Etiti local government, the staff were asked to forget their salaries and allowances should they fail to ensure PDP’s victory in their polling units.

The memo reads: "Government of Enugu State of Nigeria, Office of the secretary Igbo-Etiti local government area.


"Be informed that salaries and allowances of all Political appointees of the local government council have been put on hold until after the elections.

"All concerned (political appointees) are to deliver on their political mandates in their various polling units, etc. to the PDP in the elections with evidence thereafter after which the restrictions on salaries and other allowances will be lifted, if need be."

The letter was copied to the HPM, Treasurer and Payroll Officer.

SaharaReporters reliably gathered that the cessation of salaries and allowances was effected in the 17 local government areas and Ugwuanyi's appointees at the state level as a way to push them to do everything to ensure PDP’s victory in Saturday’s elections.

You can scheme all you want. The universe knows how to balance energies.

Jega declared buhari 2:55am

This was 2015. In 2019 and 2023, the presidential elections were declared after 4am. Why are you still arguing when we were both saying the same thing from the beginning? I was only correcting you cos you mentioned 2 am for 2019 elections. Please read to comprehend and not respond.

lhordspy:
Not correct. You can google it.

Don't know why you're arguing with me because Tinubus candidacy was announced after 4am as well.
