It was Wednesday morning, April 5, 2023 at Asaba airport. Mr Peter Obi had just arrived and was stepping out of the airport to head for his vehicle, when he noticed an elderly man, sitting by the corner, looking distressed.

The elderly man, 95, was heading to Abuja for his medical check-up. Unfortunately his flight was cancelled, and he was rescheduled for an evening flight, meaning that he would spend many excrutiating hours on a wheelchair, before he gets the chance to fly, assuming the flight is not cancelled again.

Filled with love, and understanding the delicate situation the man was in, Obi immediately arranged for the man to fly in a private jet leaving for Abuja at the moment, so he could meet up with his medical appointment.

The elderly man never stopped praying for Obi. His family members never stopped appreciating Obi. All who witnessed the event never stopped admiring Obi.

What manner of man is this that his heart beats for others!

A massive protest by IPOB hit the commercial city of today. Unlike the usual protest by IPOB, this particular protest was led by a large group of men wearing white track suits with the Biafran emblem embossed on it, and white face-caps to match. The main protesters followed behind the men in white. The protesters demanded the unconditional release of IPOB leader, Nnamdi Kanu

The protest was peaceful and without incident

What matters most is not that a man makes a mistake, rather it is that a man accepts responsibility, when he makes a mistake.

This is something that Festus Keyamo will never know. He rushed to blab, and now LP has disgraced him.

Left to me, I think the N15 million is still a bit steep. N5million is appropriate to me, so that women and youths can also via for the ticket.

Financial rascality must be removed from Nigerian politics. That's the only way forward.

Omowale2023:
Okay....I totally and outrightly agree with him that Abuja is a mere 37th. But in the constitution for you to be a governor of a state, you must have the popularity votes and 25% in 2/3 of the state. Therefore if Abuja is a state, who is the governor?, the president or the president?. Your guess is as good as mine.

The president is the governor of Abuja, hence if that be the case, how can a governor be elected without getting 25% and the popularity votes from the state?

To unbuttress your opposing opinions, since 1999 to 2019, no president has been sworn into power without winning Abuja or getting 25%.

What do you think?

Do you think obi is wasting is time?

Do you think Tinubu's presidency is unconstitutional?

Do you think that the Judiciary will do the wrong thing as usual?

I leave you with your thoughts.

I know that the CJN will look for technicalities to dismiss the case in favor of tinubu. Anybody that is closer to him should advice him not to try rubbish. Nigeria is calm now because of that Court case, anything that will stop us from getting justice will be stood against no matter what.

Ofunaofu:
First and foremost Tinubu did not win 34 state. This settles it because I know where you are coming from as his supporters

The fact remains that Tinubu did not meet the 25% requirement in the FCT Abuja, and shouldn't have been declared the winner

To your question,

If a candidate can be so popular to win 34 States, he will comfortably get 25% in the FCT Abuja because his popularity would have rob off on the people living in the FCT Abuja, aliens are not living in the FCT

Ofunaofu:
"This then begets the question: is it just, reasonable and sensible to argue that a candidate who, for instance, won 36 States of the Federation and also polled the highest number of votes cast at an election but failed to score 25% of the votes cast in FCT, Abuja cannot be deemed the winner of the election? I think not. That would not be just, reasonable and sensible."

This argument doesn't hold water, infact it is a very silly argument and can only come from the camp of the APC who are at the moment caught up with the law.

If someone can be so popular to the extent of winning the entire 36 state, getting 25% in the FCT Abuja shouldn't be difficult because those who live in FCT Abuja are Nigerians who should be in tune with the popularity of the said candidate

Strafudeen:
We'll see about that.

Biden still has not congratulated the election thief, last time I checked.

The whole world about to hear gory details of the drugged career of the urine leaker.

Let's see the international government that will deal with a drug lord wearing the Nigerian flag for camouflage

If abuja is merely the 37th let the supreme Court clearly say so

If upload affects the entire process , then so be it. Annulment is one of Obi's alternative prayers.

GreyLaw:
Buhari had been preparing and contesting for 16 years before becoming president and yet his performance is nothing to write home about.

I thought Bishop Kukah knew better. If Bishop Kukah was any wiser he would wait for the court cases to be settled then write this piece. Alas, even the oppressed many times pander to the oppressor.

Don't conclude yet, uzodimma has only one term in IMO state govt house. The moment his term is over, trust imo state people to vote him out and vote in labor party. It is in their body language already. They never voted for him in the first place so they are just waiting for him to complete 4years awarded to him by supreme court.

The old war horses are angry and foaming because a structureless movement collapsed and permanently retired many heavy weights nation wide in the political scene.

They are more afraid now due to fear of an overturn and a return of the presidential mandate to the rightful winners.

They are throwing useless sentiments to divide the people and continue to trade their destines with peanuts and puff puff.

The road to recovery of the stolen mandate has officially begun. All hands must be on deck.

.Rufai Oseni is wrong in saying British owned Lagos. It is inaccurate.

The British RULED Lagos, not owned Lagos. They owned Churches, Schools, buildings, thats it! They did not own the land or the ruling dynasty King.

Oseni should stop sharing falsehood.

10th NASS: Why APC Should Zone Senate President to Southeast – Ohikere

By Ameer Obansa

Former Kogi state information commissioner, Tom Ohikere has urged the All Progressives Congress (APC) to zone the Senate Presidency to the Southeast in the interest of fairness and stability of the incoming dispensation and also for unity in the APC.

Ohikere made the assertion while speaking to select journalists in Lokoja, Kogi state on the sidelines of the March 18, state assembly elections.

According to Ohikere, no ethno – religious or geo-political region has a monopoly of any political party and that permutations and political outcomes are usually the results of strategic negotiations and concessions.

He said the political scene is ever dynamic and constantly changing and success for a political party involves the ability to carry all factions along amicably.

Ohikere said, “The Southeast have an indignation towards the APC government over alleged marginalization. Politics is dynamic game and the balance of yesterday, cannot stand the realities of today. That is the push and pull of today.

“The outgoing dispensation witnessed other regions like the northwest, the Southwest, Northeast, North central and even the South – South playing visible roles in the executive and legislative powers of government, the southeast from which emerges one of the major three tribes of the country has been conspicuously absent much to their consternation. Even though many in the APC are blaming it on their non-acceptance of the party. But it is simple, if you want the region to accept you then you should act favourable or more persuasively towards it, and I believe that is what the Buhari’s government has been doing in the latter part of the administration with the various visit to the region.

Ohikere added that the southeast APC have proven their worth in the general election against palpable odds, even clinching some senatorial seats in the southeast and southsouth states, such as Ebonyi, Imo, Abia, Edo and Cross Rivers state.

Ohikere who is also the chairman of the APC Broom Platform said the current chief whip of the National Assembly, Senator Orji Uzor Kalu has paid his dues towards the upliftment, stability and successes of the party and hence is more qualified than any other elected politician to be the next president of the senate.

“With the changing of the guard, the shift in balance and the evolving clarity of perception will no doubt lead to new alliances and permutations from both within our party and on the general political level. Zoning and rotation for balance has always been central to our political calculus especially in such a period of crucial decision making.

“Despite the denials and apologies of the APC leadership, the Southeast APC has been growing steadily and parading prominent names, including former governor Orji Uzor Kalu. Kalu who is currently the chief whip of the national assembly has shown himself unquestionably loyal to the APC in its vision for a better Nigeria. Hence the clamour within the APC for him to occupy such a position, Ohikere stated

alienvirus:
An Igbo can only be president if and only if:

1. Igbos believe in Nigeria they want to lord over.

2. Igbos accept and respect other ethnic nationalities

3. Igbos are ready to work with all ethnic nationalities.

4. Present a non-tribalistic and non-religious sentimentalist. Someone who can go to mosques and pay homages to Imams to canvas votes. Someone who can equal go to churches to plead for votes and respect traditionalists equally.

5. Igbos do away with chest-beating and don't be haughty and cocky.

6. Do away with Biafra. You can't be clamoring for Biafra at the same time eye Nigerian presidency.
