The issue of fairness and equity should not be joined in this discussion.

Equity has now become a convenient word for APC.

Where was equity in choosing a southern president?

Why for the sake of fairness was it not given to a region in the south that had never gotten it?

1999-2007 Olusegun Obasanjo (Ogun - Southwest)

2010-2015 Goodluck Jonathan (Bayelsa - South South)

Even VPs

2007-2010 Goodluck Jonathan (Bayelsa- South South)

2015-present Yemi Osibanjo (Ogun- Southwest)

Going by the above, if fairness, equity and justice were the watchword of the APC, I think the southeast would have been given the chance of producing the next president of Nigeria so let's stop this "sanctimoniousness".

Everyone should be allowed to aspire and the best candidate, win.

NB
Before you draw the "Igbo" card out, I'm not Igbo and not from any sub Igbo group. I just hate injustice.

Where were you guys when OUK from SE supported Lawan from NE and he said it on channels tv that if APC will not micro zone it to SE then the north should have it... Now same OUK is crying now and want to reap where he didn't sow.

Footballer754:
If I remember right Tinubu /APC scuttled the emergence of a Yoruba man as Speaker.
PS: I am not from Southeast

How did Tinubu/ACN scuttled the emergence of a yoruba person as speaker?
ACN has just 56 members in the house and Tambuwal won the seat with over 250 votes... Maybe you don't know that some PDP members from the SW didn't support the yoruba woman imposed on them..
Let us be sincere when we raise points on public forum.

I’m sure Wike will still give them some conditions.

More to go, when we were telling them that they don’t know how to play the game.

garfield1:
You didnt read it well.they were three different accreditation reports and none tallied with what inec declared.since apc could not prove sufficient overvoting,it failed.obi never extracted data directly from the bvas so he fails

Boss don’t stress yourself the OP will not listen to correction. Let him continue twisting everything to support his stand.

Larryndelaw:
ALL PDP members in Rives state are supporting APC, so opposition doesn't have the numbers

Some don’t know. They believe in their lies and nothing can change their minds. Till June 5 they will know that politics is all about strategizing.

Chai.... One Elluuuupeee Member-elect don carry some supporters handicap... Where are those doing permutations that the opposition will determine the Speaker of the house? 1 down many will not come public but their votes will talk on June 5 2023...

Odin13:
Tinibu and he’s lawyers are scared.. not even sure

Reading and understanding is hard for some people...

Between 2011-20015 when the SE had DSP and Deputy Speaker at the same time and the NE and SW didn't have 1 slot nobody thk of balance then, now you hypocrites are crying when things don't go your way.

Ofunaofu:
What is wrong if SE get the Senate President

The party in power share the position already and no blackmailing can change that

Never4getU:
Don't mind them, they have eaten their cake and still want to keep it.

They always think about themselves only and yet play politics using their anus to reason it but when people labour to have it they want to remember they're Nigerians. Its a xheap blackmail which isn't going to work this time or anytime.

They're just playing, let june come

They're selfish.. there was a time that SE held 2 positions at a time and NE and SW didn't even have one..

2011-2015 SE was DSP and Deputy speaker NE and SW had nothing and nobody cry like this.

Ofunaofu:
And I asked again, did other regions not get anything in those years

Starting from the position of the president

2011-2015 NE and SW didn't have any position and SE had 2 DSP ad Deputy Speaker
And now in 2023 SE got Deputy Speaker, what else are you people complaining for?

Ofunaofu:
Why did you tacitly remove 1999 - 2011 & 2015 - 2023

Because you are trying to make it like the SE has never been fair to...
1999-2005 SP
2007-2019 DSP
2011-2015 Deputy Speaker..
And now you guys are complaining that you must get the SP in a government you didn't vote or support.

Ofunaofu:
In those periods, other regions didn't occupy any position

Please tell us the position held by SW between 2011-2015?

Ofunaofu:
He who comes to equity, Must come with free hands

I ask you OP, is the south east not part of Nigeria

In the 9th senate, south south had the DSP, while the south east had nothing , OP why didn't you ask this question then whether the south east is not part of Nigeria

The SE was SP for 8 years and DSP for 12 years and no other region disturb them. The SE is found of crying where there is no reason.

Who do you want to ave as the SP?

SpecialAdviser:
He apologized? Obi is such a humble and a good man. This is why APC gangs are exploiting him. Who will apologize for all Tinubu misyarn concerning Obi? He even said he doesn't want anyone to mention Obi in his presence.

As for we OBIDIENTS, no iota of apology will be given. May any apology from my mouth meet a fatal accident before it gets to any ear

Apology ke. Soyinka you are really messing up. I understand old age is impacting you already. We respected you but you messed up big time. How can an erudite professor go to discuss Datti Ahmed statement without saying anything about Tinubu Drug case? Is he happy to have a drug lord as president? Noooo nah.

Soyinka learn to behave well if you must earn my respect.

So to you an Old man of 61 went to apologize and intentionally held that information from his supporters is worth calling a humble and good man.
That shows he is nothing but a 2 faced man who is full of lies.
You can say whatever you like to make you feel good, but that’s the truth about Obi.

Lama70:
What hapoened on Sunday, please?
What did he do?

Gathering some Senators-Elect from SE to demand that the SP must be zoned to SE because they’re the only zone that deserve it because they didn’t get the presidency.
Same man that was supporting the North to have the presidency if it is no micro zone to SE he supported Lawan against all the southern candidates.

MikeofAfrica:
Is that why Tinubu lost in Lagos in 2023?

Mainwhile, OBJ won Ogun state with a landslide in 2003.

OBJ won free and fair in your dreams.

Stiv19cuff:
Good for Orji Uzor Kalu, when even Northern Govs said power should go south for fairness and justice, OUK was busy supporting Lawan Confidently, now he wants SP

His supporters and the enemies of the south won’t see anything bad in equatorial he did to deny the south the presidency.

Lama70:
Maybe OUK will get the senate leadership position.

I mean senate majority leader.

That will go to NC. OUK sealed his political coffin with the shameful stunt he showed on Sunday. Even the chief whip of the senate he will not get.

AdaojoTheUrchin:
If all the Judges were from the East, would you be comfortable with it?

If that will make you happy. But you guys didn’t complain when 3 of the judges order that Tinubu should be served in a substitute way in march.

Pinkybae:
I am not responsible for shallow minded folks who're incapable of indepth thoughts and analysis.

This is the same dynamic that's tearing Nigeria apart. The jettison of federal character and pervasive exclusion of certain regions in the affairs of our country. Once again applied in configuration of panel of judges that's going deliver judgment in most consequential election in Nigerian history.

If there has to peace, unity and love in this country, there must be equity, justice and fairness but Nigeria is hell bent in peddling injustice.

What exactly is your problem with the composition of the Appeal Panel? If there is anybody with shallow mind that person is you, yo want to decide who will be on the appeal panel to please your myopic reasoning.

Must you complain about everything?

BastadThiefnubu:
We shall see who is daft on the 29th.

Stop showing your ignorance on a public forum.

BastadThiefnubu:
Wait till 29th let's see how a drug lord will be sworn in to rule the most populous black country on earth.

Is it that you’re so daft or you can’t read? Tinubu will become the president of Nigeria on may 29, not even the the CJN can stop that.

This guys are funny.

Afamed:
Baba Iyabo that could not ensure Iyabo become a second term Senator at his backyard in Ogun central. Una too like joke for that una side

Tell them that the only time Baba Iyabo win his polling unit and ward was in 2015 sand that’s because he supported Buhari.
Baba can’t even win a state house of assembly seat in his LGA.

ChangedMan1999:
Did you run out of facts?

Why the unrefined insults?

You calling me a miserable soul is not an insult because it’s coming from you I guess. Dish out hot you can take back.

Funny how OUK think he can use blackmail to become the SP.

BluntCrazeMan:
Woowww..


That means, the other members of the panel didn't agree to her judgement.?

This are different judges.
As at 2015 she was not the head of appeal court.
