PoliticsRe: Disquiet In SSS, Officers Threaten To Undermine Buhari’s Reelection, Boko Haram by smirn(m): 7:59am On Oct 05, 2018
ignant:
You are being mischievous.

Has there ever, in this country, been a period where all but one of the heads of security services were from one region? The feeling of helplessness is fuelled by what the coupist has orchestrated in ALL but one arms of the forces. Never before has a man been so outwardly nepotistic with reckless abandon.

The DSS appointments made by the previous administrations you mentioned were officers STILL in service. Going to bring retired officers back into service breeds loom, breaks protocols and generate rancour.

If you must choose officers, twice, maybe choose the ones in service. Even though all but one other heads of service are from a region.
Your are totally senseless, go and check the profile of those appointed by the past government and tell me how many of them are career officers in the DSS before their appointment. Mischevious your head.
PoliticsRe: Disquiet In SSS, Officers Threaten To Undermine Buhari’s Reelection, Boko Haram by smirn(m): 5:25pm On Oct 04, 2018
I continue to maintain that the media is one of the greatest threat to Nigeria democracy and good governance. The media is easily used by politicians to create feeling of hatred and negative perception about any government in power. Nigerian problem is not the president, our problem is within us. The level of ignorance among us in evidently notable coupled with wrong impression forced on us by the media which has continually tear us apart as a people. The type of journalism in Nigeria is indeed laughable and is far beyond acceptable global standard. The effect of bad journalism to Nigeria democracy is even worst than vote buying and rigging during election.
Why will someone want to paint the president black because of a lawful appointment he made? In the first instance what is the DSS meant for? The State Security Service (SSS), self-styled as the Department of State Services (DSS), is the primary domestic intelligence agency of Nigeria. It is primarily responsible for intelligence gathering within the country and for the protection of senior government officials, particularly the President and state governors. It is one of three successor organisations to the National Security Organization (NSO), dissolved in 1986. The SSS operates as a department within the presidency and is under the control of the National Security Adviser.
Now, since 1999 the appointment into the office ofthe DGof the Secret Service in Nigeria has been like this, Obj came and appointed a Yoruba man Lateek Kayode Are to head the service. Immediately obj left, Yar Adua fired Kayide Are and appointed a northerner from Borno state Gadzama Afakriya to head the DSS. After the death of Yar Adua, GEJ came in and on the 7th of Sept 2010, he appointed a southerner from Cross River State by name Ita Esien Ekpeyong as the DG of of the DSS. So why is PMB case so different now? Even the mentioned elder statemen who are condemning the appointment of Yesuf Bichi has no moral right to do so going by history. There is clearly too much enimity against the government and they is no way we can succeed as a nation without giving the required love and support to our leaders.
PoliticsRe: Disquiet In SSS, Officers Threaten To Undermine Buhari’s Reelection, Boko Haram by smirn(m): 4:46pm On Oct 04, 2018
The delibrate enthronement of feelings of sentiment and division by the media and opposition politicians remain the greatest challenge of our national unity and progress in Nigeria. What we need to clear here is whether or not the appointment of Bichi inplace of Seiyefa is within the law and does not breach any due process. Security issues are clearly sensitive and I believed without sentiment that PMB has his good reasons for the appointment. Except there is something fishy, I don't see any reason why the officers in the security service should show such displeasure to the extent of revealing it to the press. Is it that the complaining officers have some personal special packages to benefit if Seiyefa should remain at the helm of affair of the DSS? Such expressions from some members of the Secret police is indeed the greatest betrayal to national security. With these feelings, I believed it was indeed proper for the president to have appointed a more trusted person. Those officers who felt they are not comfortable are free to quit the service to create room for more patriotic Nigerians.

I only feel sorry for this country when some APC members are trying to justify rigging an election by saying PDP did the same when they were in power. My question is, must APC continue with the rigging? I believe people voted for them cuz they wanted better government which free and fair election is one of them. I am not a member of any party just a concerned citizen who wants the best for his country. And again I am not saying PDP actually rigged the election only piss off with the way some people are trying to justy rigging.
if they have evidence of rigging, let them go to court and tender it, our electoral process has greatly improved whether you like it or not. It's not accusation of vote buying this time, they are now alleging intimidation of their supporters, PDP are bad and angry losers.

That wasn't just a slip of tongue it was a slip of truth. He said the truth forgetting that he was suppose to say a lie.

The worst part the Osun elections are those who say they desire democracy use MKO as a martyr yet they just supported exactly what happened to Abiola.. just on Adeleke.

They are hypocrites.

There was no just for Abiola. They desire no justice for Adeleke. The irony that they are no different than IBB and others who supported that robbery of Yoruba back then is not lost on me.

They are fine with robbery. They are fine with theft. They are corrupt to their core.

They only have issue when they aren't the ones doing the criminality.
Hmmmmm, see paining. E pain you die, sorry sha this is what you get when you suddenly develop unwarranted hatred for the right people.

So they should let the process run its course.

PoliticsRe: Osun Election: Why Adeleke Should Have Been Declared Winner – Ozekhome by smirn(m): 7:59pm On Sep 24, 2018
uniqueboi:
Adeleke satisfied the provision. In Osunbor v Oshiomhole (2007) 18 NWLR (part 1065) 32, cancelled votes had been counted and added to PDP/Osunbor’s scores.

“The courts, up to the Supreme Court, held that when votes are cancelled, they are not reckoned with in determining the outcome of such an election. The courts thereafter deducted the invalidated votes and this gave victory to Oshiomhole in the hotly contested election.”

Clearly irrelevant argument, what need to be ascertain here is whether these invalid votes deducted as it were is more than the margin in which Oshomhole defeated Osunbor in that election.

Very good argument.

Maket:
Hope they have gotten the no needed to do it
The law is clear on this
To elect a Senate president = Simple majority of the members present ( provided a quorum was formed which is one third of the entire members)
To remove a Senate President = two-third majority of the members present ( provided a quorum was formed by one-third of the entire members)
This is clearly why the PDP has been laying siege at the national assembly especially the inexperienced ones in the house of rep. The APC led government is even too soft in handling this whole matter, I expected them to teach them the PDP a lesson of the life. In 2014 when the evil Tambuwal left the PDP, the then clueless GEJ used the police to barricade the NA to stop Tambuwal but now the dead PDP is talking about democracy and rule of law. They have forgotten so soon that what goes around comes around. The evil one has left the party for good and must vacate the seat of the SP. If it will cost us democracy let it be.

So pathetic what happened to our nascent democracy today. A broad day rape and assault on democratic values and institution orchestrated by APC, led by Tyrant General Buhari and ably assisted by Professor of Law cum Senior Advocate of Nigeria Yemi Osibanjo.
They shall all fail and blacklisted forever.
what is wrong if the DSS block the entrance of the NA. The stupid musician has not taken time to find out what actually took place. In the first place, the DSS did not stop the NA members for gaining entrance of the NA. Report has it before now that some members of the National Assembly especially the members of the house have been laying siege at the NA based on impeachment remour of the speaker and Senate President. Everything has procedure as enshrined in the constitution. These politicians has police and DSS attached to them for security, so while crying wolf because you saw security men at the NA gate. On channel's this morning it was so quick for Linda Akhigbe to report on Sunrise Daily that the DSS blocked the entrance of the NA and preventing lawmakers and Journalist for gaining access while allowing only APC Senator through another back door. It was subsequently as the program was still on another report came in that the NA members are freely going into the chamber. The truth remains that the NA has fixed the sitting for today at 9am and the DSS was on ground on the invitation of the Clerk. The pictures and videos did not show the security men molesting anybody. We only saw two persons whom I believed are members of the house of Representatives and from the opposition party ranting . We should condemn the act of some lawmakers unnecessarily besieging the assembly complex when there is no sitting or before the stipulated time for sitting and creating uncalled tension and misinformation. Some members of the NA has developed the attitude of sneaking into the NA chamber even at night as well as scaling through the fence to execute some evil plans. It is time such behaviors need to be condemned.

There is nothing wrong if the Senate has to impeach it's president. This is not the first time a Senate president will be impeached if at all there is any such move. The PDP has resolved to cheap blackmail for the consumption of ignorant and gullible Nigerians. The media is not helping matter to. There are clearly conditions for removing the Senate President and if such constitutional conditions are met so be it. The false alarm of the PDP is getting to nonsense. Initially it was that armed DSS stopped them from gaining entrance into the NA, then they later grant them access and so on. The politics of today be it in APC or PDP will never lead this country to anywhere good. It is only a fool that will sympathise with all these good for nothing politicians. They already know what Nigerians love and they are giving it to us.

Am still wondering if the impunity as they claim by this present government in not obeying court order is only limited to the cases of Al zazaki, sambo Dasuki and the little Nnadi kanu, these trio are clearly threats to the existence of the country as a whole so the government action is evidently justifiable.
