So why didn't you present evidence of the rigging and forgery before the PEPT?

The laws are there and are clear for all to see. This man spent his time and money arguing that Shettima was double nominated, that Tinubu has a cr8minal conviction, that there is an impossible special requirement only applicable to the FCT, and that INEC not transmitting via IREV meant the election should be cancelled.

All of these arguments can only sweep the masses away but cant stand a minute of scrutiny in any Court.

So what was he expecting?

You go to Court to say A then come to the media to say B. Very dislikeable character. Same with Atiku but that one at least made more reasonable arguments.

aswani:
I think he is from Edo North.

The OP literally says Ogun State.

tesppidd:
Okay.

The governor has been accused by Wike and his legislators of gross misconduct which even warrants an impeachment.

So why are majority of Wike's people suing for peace and saying they should settle and forge ahead, they should settle and pursue peace..

You have accused someone of gross misconduct, yet you are the one saying they should settle.

What message would that give to a sane and intelligent mind?

I don't know what you're talking about. It is Sim talking about a father and son fight but even on this very thread you are commenting on, you can see that Wike is not backing down so who is really suing for peace?

tesppidd:
Such serious allegations that should make any man go gaggers and extremely upset, is what he responds to with a phrase, not even up to a full sentence.

Very fishy to any sane and intellectual mind.

So what about the other allegations.. those ones cannot be denied because we see them with our eyes.

Its up to every man how he responds to any situation. Certainly, i think people will find ways of framing any response to suit their preconceptions.

Had he responded as you've recommended, I have no doubt that you would have then said he was overreacting or being excessively defensive which, no doubt, would also be fishy to any sane and intelligent mind.

tesppidd:
All these structure this structure that is just a smoke screen, a cover up.

Address the allegations squarely and unequivocally..

*Did you ask for 25 percent of Rivers State budget?
*Did you demand for 2 billion of palliative money?
*Did you order Fubara not to attend PDP functions?
*Did you handpick 99 percent of the Commissioners for Fubara.
*Did you appoint CSO, COS and SSG for Fubara?
*Did you give Fubara a limit to the amount of contracts he can sign without consulting you?
"Have you been using the state private jet?
*Are 90 percent of the Assembly members loyal to you, instead of Fubara?

Pls leave structure, structure matter and debunk these allegations....

“I hear they said I gave a limit of what he can do, I want 25 percent. These are ridiculous.

Is this not address enough?

Megabig:
You did man, we saw the water flash over him, why una go just lie

They are not saying he was not hit. They are saying it was accidental and not specifically aimed at him. We all went to school na...why una dey deliberately miscomprehend?

DestinyNigga:
There's nothing like no man's land in the first place. Lagos belongs to Lagosians. Even Igbos doing business there knows it. That's why Sanwolu can lock any market and reopen it when he like. The only thing am advising our Igbo brothers is to remember home. Let all igbos invest heavily in Anambra state so we can have replica of Lagos state in Anambra.

Its a good idea but the thing you are missing is that the strength of Lagos does not lie in heavy investment alone. It lies in a huge population that allows investors to easily make returns.

South Easterners can only create another Lagos by returning home en masse.

But who says you need another Lagos anyway? Lagos is a consumerist hub. South East is wel position to be a manufacturing hub...think different

CaptainAyub:
It will be a good thing if the Biafran separatists can retrieve Bakassi from Cameroon.
What Nigerian army cannot do

Modified.
Obasanjo shouldn’t have given up Bakassi so easily without a fight.
Forget about united Nations,bla bla,Cameroon simply played a fast one on us with the backing of France.
What is usually done in such situations is conduct a referendum where the natives of Bakassi will choose where the want to belong of which they will likely choose Zoogeria since they are now in IDPs inside Zoogeria

Had nothing to do with a referendum. There was an International court of Justice judgment and France was ready to bomb all our military infrastructure to ashes.

There was no choice or way out.

FarSide:
The fear shaa. I just can't stand it. For the past two weeks I've been trying to muster courage for this but no way.
I wanted to do it last week Wednesday but when I got close to the hospital, I lost every courage in me, I had to change direction, entered a cool joint, took some bottles of beer and headed home.
I just wish someone can drag me there but I can't confide in anyone Incase if it turns out positive

You have to be a man about it.

1. Assume you do have it

2. Go and do the test

3. Don't wait for the result. Give them your email and leave immediately.

4. Buy some beer and wait for the results.

You can't outrun your shadow.

Angelfrost:
Good... Keep telling yourself that.

No doubt.

Angelfrost:
Let me rephrase for the sake of your false idea of patriotism...

Most sane Nigerians have stopped giving a flying fvck.

Boko Haram is the politics of terror that is beyond the control of anyone outside Aso Rock.

Any further lamentations?!!

So "sane Nigerians" are defeated and go about life as walking dead?

No, those are petulant children. Sane Nigerians are those who stood up to the government on October 2020 to bring an end to the SARS menace.

Sane Nigerians are governors who banded together to creatr Amotekun to stem the murderous regime of fulani rascals.

Sane Nigerians are the civilian joint task force members and vigilantes all across the north confronting boko haram with inferior weapons amd keeping their communities safe.

The idea that "sane Nigerians" are helpless crybabies is a dangerous falsehood that does the most damage to those who indulge themselves in self pity.

Sane Nigerians will create their own narratives.

To each their own.

Angelfrost:
Governor Zulum... Honestly, no sane Nigerian gives a fvck anymore!

You all asked for it... Good luck to you all.

It's the way you people appropriate this term "sane Nigerians" to spew rubbish.

In 2010 and 2011 when boko haram was bombing churches in abuja was it about Borno alone? What peaceful churchgoers were massacred in Owo last year was it about Borno alone?

Sane Nigerians indeed.

Authoreety:
I thought they said that the Nigerian army built a university there to divert the mind of those with insurgency tendency

Meaning no other measures should be taken? Ok.

Lovenorth:
Is the judge not hungry?

You stole the food in his house?

Lovenorth:
Why not to the Nigerian Nigerian government's account? I hope it's not what I am thinking? Even the judges are hungry

Are you thinking at all?

BafanaBafana:
I see your point but it's not valid. Borno doesn't lack economic opportunities. There are several higher institutions there also and this one will not make any significant difference. Are you saying absorbing youths as students or staff? How many youth will they absorb? Besides Biu where it is situated is not a book Haram hot zone

Well the validity may be open to debate. I'm just helping to clarify what the general seems to have implied.

Authoreety:
After explaining, nothing was explained

Just do what you know you have to do

You just failed to understand.

The University was built to absorb youths from the region to prevent some of the root causes of insurgency which include limited economic opportunuties.

MasterJayJay:
And the driver will come down, the car will drive itself?
That's a lame preventive measure.

The driver is obviously not a significant threat since the soldiers can monitor him. It is significantly different when you have a car full of 7 - 10 people. How do you monitor their movements from afar?

Let's be real.

MasterJayJay:
This one thinks every traveller on roads in southeast is Igbo. All tribes that go through those roads are subjected to such cruel treatment.

There's nothing cruel about it. As one of such other tribes who frequently travels to the east, yes it is inconvenient but it is understandable based on the prevailing security situation.

The mode of operation of the gunmen in this part is such that they drive Sienna's to attack officers and such can hardly be distinguished from regular civilan vehicles. Thus, to preempt attacks everybody comes down.

The elderly are usually excluded. Don't you think you are being unreasonable by calling a short 2 minute walk cruelty??

BentizilL0:
One on one without any foreign assistance, Israel cannot defeat Egypt.. Iran, Turkey will erase Israel without any foreign assistance and those two are not Arab...

Throughout history, Israel has always been a bitch of superpowers. Now it's USA turn...

The reality is that in terms of military might, Israel ahead of Iran but not by too much but significantly ahead of Turkey and very very far ahead of Egypt. Look up the global firepower index.

You can't beat basic economics. In all of this, Alhaji Dangote is smiling to the bank as his product dominates the market.

Calitoscassius:
you are absolutely correct!

So you and I knows that there no Made in Naigeria vehicles.

So you must be talking rubbish also.

Can you read and comprehend??

I'm showing you that your argument is false because it undermines itself.

Honda, Toyota and are car manufacturers. That is not in dispute. Thus, an argument, like yours, that circulalry posits them as car assemblers based on a lack of originality in design is obviously wrong.

Calitoscassius:
Naigeria did not make this car they assembled it, to make a car everything used to make the car must be manufactured in Naigeria! Like in Japan, Germany or China.



So again, this car is not made in Naigeria and yes we have seen better sleek cars than this. Look you would see that this is a copy of another car that is in existence already. Honda Element, MG Rover, Kia sportage, Landcruiser and even Skoda has already made a car that looks like this one.

Believe it or not i am into automobile sales and designes.

Talking rubbish. Even the largest automobile brands outsource some parts from others.

Also by your own logic, Honda, KIA, Toyota, and all those you mentioned are simply copying each other, therefore they are not vehicle manufacturers?

Rest.

do4luv14:
Quick question pls

is the own3of Nord motors a Nigerian, or some foreigners, who decide to set plant here and assembly the cars, or making cars from crash

Nigerian. You can google for better info.

obi58:
olodo.....

you call the current economic situation that affects every one in your family down to the village meaningless due to a bought political result?

who is fooling who?

Oga your brain is not working straight. Tinubu can be the worst presidient ever. That does not mean Nigeria's democracy is over - whatever that is supposed to mean.

The only question is, was the judgment fair? And since you allege there was bribery can you explain how? Or once your candidate has lost you think it makes sense to start crying bribery?

Senseless.

obi58:
Is it a loss for me or for the whole Nigeria?

Abi you are also not feeling the impact of 1300/USD?

Olodo

What does that have to do with democracy vis a vis a court judgment?

Rambling, meaningless points.

Go to school! Bye!

obi58:
it is not surprising.

our democracy is finished.

Just because your side lost? You can do better.

Nwodosis:
Give it to Tinubu, he's a diety! The problem is that wrong standards have been set and will be referred to in other electoral matters.

Like what? Can you highlight any principle of law that was violated?

francotunsco:
The judgement is still ongoing. The judges are treating each appeal grounds individually.

Then he meant grounds/prayers when he said appeal - all the grounds are one appeal

Inspirer1:
I doubt if any other appeal will scale through

Appeal to where??

Kukutente23:
Have you read the op? Have you followed the story from the beginning? Do you know why the Nigerian Airlines took FGN to court and why court granted the injunction? You're just jumping in midstream without hearing the full story and from the other side.
If you read through and you can't see Ethiopian Airlines tactically washing its hands off the project and even painting the picture of an unwilling participant who was being forced on grounds of altruism, then I don't know if you'll understand anything better.
The next question is if altruism is a good business model.

Of course, I've followed the story from the beginning, what on earth are you saying?

Do you, rather, even understand what an injunction is?? It is a mere procedural device to halt proceedings while the Court makes its substantive decision, and this is couched not on the rightness or wrongness of the actions being halted by way of the injunction, but on the fact that if the actions are allowed to continue in the interim, they may develop in such a way as to render the eventual outcome of the case pointless.

So you tell, me, what on earth did you think the reason for the grant of the injunction was?

It is you who obviously has little understanding of the issues. If anything, the fact ETA are showing reluctance is what ought to tell any reasonable person that there is nothing in this for them other than a simple business transaction and since it appears Nigerians don't want it why would they hang around?

The next question is, why did the FG beg a reluctant ETA instead of just going for any other carrier? Is it not obvious that it was borne out of a desire to actually bring in something of quality?

I don't know how or why you think this supports your position in any way.

matify83:
Just like government put up newspaper adverts for vacancies while those spaces are already filled up ab initio .

Hope you read where the ET executive also said he does not know whether other foreign airlines invited put up a bidding.

The process that threw up ET as the preferred investor wasn't transparent and that was why the amalgamated union of airline operators in Nigeria took the matter to court.

Are they supposed to know if other invitees sent in a tender??

The process is:

1. A public invitation of tenders

2. Then screening which is an internal exercise;

3. Then publication of the successful bidder. Which part was not followed in accordance with the law?

As in the Government will write to them to inform each company of who and who sent in tenders and who and how did not?

That fact that ETA can confirm others were invited is enough transparency. Whether others actually responded is totally irrelevant at this stage. That is a question to be resolved by internal audit. The others too, can speak up if they were wronged.

Of course, this is Nigeria so you can't rule out the element of procurement corruption at some point, but the idea that you actually believe that domestic carriers have gone to Court to stop such fraud and not to protect their business interests is laughable!

These are the same airlines that constantly engage in a host of unethical practices. You kidding me?
