So why do the governors feel that they are the ones to hijack the party?

Lol. Funny fuckers!

If the think that they can defeat PDP without Tinubu's ACN block then there are jokers.

This discussion about kids resuming school is not one I even consider at all.

It's not up for discuss.

Lol

One would be forgiven to think that Oshiomole dropped dead or just contracted a deadly disease!

Oyegun that is not ruined is talking!

Nodogragra4me:
Off course I did. The summary is that Buhari should have threatened the governor to swear in fourteen pro oshiomole assembly elect members which would have amounted to helping your enemy by scoring a own goal

Obaseki won. He owns the structures of both party in his state. Ize duty is to provide the fund that will end up being invested in Obasekis campaign..

His hope for the new caretaker committee for the state and if the new formula is adopted, Oba will still have his men thereb

Yes

The same power of authority and impunity with which Obaseki refused to properly swear in the 14 democratically elected lawmakers is the same power of impunity with which Buhari should have forced Obaseki to swear in the lawmakers by any means necessary even if it meant withholding allocations, changing the commissioner of police; using the Federal might to deal with him.

Rubbish!
Whoever comes to equity must come with clean hands.

But we have a no-action President.

Who are you as a governor for Obasanjo to tell you to properly swear in elected lawmakers and you say NO.

Bobby4090:
The success/failure of this venture can only be seen if they APC end up winning Edo state by Sept. If they lose Edo state, then all they did and have done would be in vain and will serve as a lesson to future intra party relations.

Buhari is a failure here. Is it after the damage has been done that they're now coming out to blame Obaseki for not accepting peace. He Buhari should has warned Obaseki long ago and applied serious pressure for those 14 Assembly men to be sworn in instead of just appealing to him. Had Obaseki sworn in those folks I believe all these issues would not have escalated. And if he Obaseki happens to win again by Sept. I bet he'll never swear them in till they all leave office. I wonder how a man could have such cold hatred for people elected by their constituencies just like himself.

Buhari- should have been strict on Obaseki and threaten party sanctions if he Obaseki still refuses to swear in those Assemby guys. Buhari came out too late to get involved.

Oshiomole - Should have been quietly visiting Buhari and urging him to lead the battle. After all he Buhari is the practical party head. Oshiomhole was fighting a battle Buhari should have fought.

Tinubu - Should have told Oshiomole to either convince Buhari to go against Obaseki or forget the battle.

Obaseki - Should have had a forgiving heart and settled the Edo crisis. He seems to me like someone ready to fight while forgetting that negotiations are also part of the battle.

Those are my view.

And your view is spot on.

At the time Adams frowned at taking party disputes to the law courts, Buhari himself said No.
And he encouraged party members to take disputes to court instead of using the party mechanism for dispute resolution.

And today the President has seen the need to avoid taking cases to court.

And after destroying the party with his inactions and ineptitude he is now calling for party resolutions.

Nodogragra4me:
Rubbish contribution. He should have empowered his foe to remove him as governor. They wonbe't admitted into the assemble even if he loses the septmdber election. Let them go and wait for another election, if their party gives them ticket.

Did you read what he wrote at all?

Aufbauh:
There's definitely no need, let them shame their distractors.
The resolution of the APC NEC was actually a draw game between the warring parties.
The difference is that they're some team that celebrate draw game as if they are the winner, simply because they never expected a point.

Great point.

When a child is fighting for what is not truly his, he is happy when an adult collects it.

But the child who is the real owner is unhappy when the adult collects it.

Oshiomole and his NWC should just accept it in good fate and forge ahead for the sake of the party.

The fact is that; they say politics is unpredictable and that a lot could change in 24 hours.

APC really need to pull together to win Edo in order to maintain their little hold in the South South.

They should then just have sense and collectively rally behind Yemi Osinbajo for 2023.

Pick one core Hauasa/Fulani man as his running mate.

That way PDP's pilfering hands will be off our coffers for at least another 7 years.

olajizz01:
I think you are correct,some of them have been rejoicing that Oshiomhole camp wanted to challenge the president decision.


I think for peace sake,Oshiomhole camp needs to sheaths their sword.

I think what bothers Oshiomole more than anything now is not the chairmanship but the Edo election.
After all his tenure as Chairman was already getting to an end.

How to make sure that Obaseki is not re-elected.

With him now out of office it would be difficult to operate on election day.

Strangebuttrue:
flesh and blood didn't reveal this to you

Like the PDP have told us, APC did not give the mandatory 7 or 14 days notice required for holding a NEC meeting (I wonder wetin consine them)

The excuse that it was the continuation of the meeting in March that was suspended is bullsiiit.

The NEC meeting truly violated a lot of provisions.

Giadom claims he is the legal chariman. He and his camp took the dissolution with grace and joy and happily allowed the NEC to take over.

Oshiomole claims he is the legal chairman. He and his camp are angry about the dissolution, aggrieved and are heading to court.

This tells us something. Like the parable of King Solomon in the bible.

The fake mother of the child was more than happy to give the child up for death.

But the real mother of the child refused to give the child up for death.

This is the scenario at play here.

AntonVince:
Comments like this only lend credence to the fact that Nigeria is indeed not ripe for democracy.

You don't see anything wrong with the president (of all Nigerians) holding a political party meeting at the FEC meeting chambers?
What's the business of Nigerians with the internal affairs of the APC that warrants the use of a public building for their meeting?
Perhaps the PDP, AAC, APGA, KOWA et al should also book the same location for their subsequent meetings.

...and to crown their ignominy, the comic opera even featured a supposed Attorney-General and Minister of Justice administering Oath of Office on a party chieftain!

It's almost certain they also channeled public resources into funding that show-of-shame.

These charlatans in power keep plunging us to new lows and setting bad precedents with each passing day.
It's unfortunate.

It's wrong for APC to have held the meeting at the villa.

Quite wrong really

But why are they quoting APC constitution about 7 or 14 days notice for NEC meeting.?

This one funny die.

vowiski:
Had to recheck my post and saw where I wrote "thinking"... Meaning it was not an affirmative statement but subjective.

What a miserable online bulldog you are. An introvert who find solace in jerking off his life.

You are an embarrassing excuse for being a human being.

vowiski:
[quote author=vowiski post=91099346]Yo the senseless Tinubu butt licker.

You last statement clearly shows you wish APC wins Edo.

Do you write what you don't understand or you are simply trying to mask your ignorance?

You lazy cotichy bum!

That's the bolded right there.

Your attack was based on you thinking I said that APC has won Edo.

And then you went ahead and said "Your last statement clearly shows you wish APC wins Edo"

Why the inconsistencies in brain function?

Is your IQ a proper fraction or what?
Or are you doing an advertorial today for the mentally challenged in the society?

Crawl back to your hole you m0r0n.

I know in your heart of hearts you wish PDP has a d*c so you could ride gleefully.

By referring to the APC constitution about 7 and 14 days notices it is clear that PDP does not want APC to have a candidate in Edo.

Hehehehe

vowiski:
Yo the senseless Tinubu butt licker.

You last statement clearly shows you wish APC wins Edo.

Do you write what you don't understand or you are simply trying to mask your ignorance?

You lazy cotichy bum!

So wishing that APC wins Edo is the same as saying that APC will win Edo?

Wow!

What a foolish youth. You must donate your brain for covid 19 vaccines trials.

Or maybe stick it in-between your thighs and see if it fits.

vowiski:
A rabid lagosian thinking APC has won the election in Edo..

Edo has never voted on party lines. You can check form history.

In the last election, they voted massively for APC for the governor's seat and PDP for the president's seat.

If you look further, PDP has the better federal seat allocated in the Senate and HOR.

IZE IYAMU will never be governor. He is like Obgoru of Delta State and Atiku of Nigeira.

And where in my post did I say or insinuate that APC has won or will win Edo?

Do you go brain dead at 1615 hours daily?

PDP should say the truth.

It's not the venue of the meeting that is paining them, why they are angry is that APC found a solution to their crisis.

They were hoping that the Rivers and Zamfara situation would repeat in Edo.

Ayed44:
You don't understand.

There was a script written by the cabal-backed APC governors. The plot was to seize the party from Tinubu preparatory to 2023. There are many actors in the script. Giadom was incorporated into the script to play a specific role. His role is to create a confusion and crises in the party then the cabal/governors would take it up from from there. "Just go out there and announce yourself as the acting chairman and start releasing random statements from your bedroom, we will complete the job". Giadom's job finished the moment he successfully announced there would be a NEC meeting. He has been rewarded for a job well done.

If Giadom had not declared himself acting chairman, there would not have been any need to hold the NEC meeting which ousted the Pro- Tinubu NWC.

As at today APC is now firmly under the grip of the APC governors and they are not ready to let go of it anytime soon.

I do understand.

We both agree that Giadom was only a hatchet man used in executing the job of removing Adams and clipping Tinubu's wings.

Yes I concurr.

Where i think we differ is the aftermath.

The other faction led by Amaechi and El Rufai expected that having removed Oshiomole, Giadom would be left for some time as acting chairman so they could strategize. Amaechi for one has a lot of jobs Giadom could have done for him in Rivers state.

But the immediate removal of Giadom is a shocker to Giadom and to the camp that used him.



Lastly I implore you to stop thinking that the entire governors have got some sort of unshaken solidarity with one another.

Politics is about interest and not about being governors in the same forum.

Lemme give an example with Hope Uzodinma and Abdullahi Ganduje.
These are 2 governors of Imo and Kano but it would be almost impossible for them to be more loyal to other governors than Oshiomole who staked his office to make sure they became governors.
Lagos governor nko? Could he be more loyal to other governors than Tinubu?

There is nothing like governors have hijacked anything.

Oshiomle versus Obaseki El Classico.

Present scoreline 1-1.


1. First Half; Oshiomole denies Obaseki the APC ticket and consequently sends him out of APC.

Oshiomole 1 Obaseki 0.


2. Second Half; Obaseki's fight back results in the sacking of Oshiomole as APC chairman.

Oshiomole 1 Obaseki 1.


3. Extra time; This will decided in September and it depends on the winner of the Edo Governorship eleection.



If Ize Iyanmu wins the Edo Governorship, Oshiomole will be happy and relieved and would have won the war.
But if Obaseki wins the Edo Governorship, Oshiomole would have lost the war and would feel disgraced.

Tomide007:
This is outrightly against APC constution.....an ordinary member cannot swear in the chairman of the party....But what's my own.

Well I don't really know about that.

My main point is just to explain that the Attorney General is a partisan appointment unlike the CJN.

Ayed44:
Calling Giadom a loser shows that the writer of this article is naive.

Giadom is the biggest winner.

Giadom was recruited for a particular job. He was given is job description and he carried out the tast perfectly well without embarrassing the masters. And he has been handsomely rewarded.

The same Giadom that was running around the place the day before claiming that Buhari had endorsed him as the legal chairman?

Gidaom that was sent out of the NEC meeting immediate about the NWC was dissolved?

Make una dey deceive una selves.

Even here in PH the supporters of Amaechi who were already dreaming of using Giadom to silence Abe are already quiet.

Giadom's camp expected that he would be there as chairman for some time.

aeronot:
What I don't understand is the Attorney General swearing in party members. Does it apply to other political parties? Is the attorney general a full Apc member? Is he the AG not meant to be for the Nigerian state? Or for Apc? I don tire for this country.

The Attorney General is a minister of the President and he is a party member.

Only the CJN (Chief Justice) cannot be partisan.

asobo:
We[s] all know how influential governor's are in Nigeria. First you humiliated one of their own @Ambode despite all the emissaries during that period and again you did same when it came to Gov Obaseki and you expect them to keep watching as if the don't have a stake in the party or because say you be APC sole administrator abi? The gave you the respect you deserved but you played into their hand[/s]s.

Nonsense

Governors do not have that level of solidarity

Out of about 17 APC governors, about 10 are with Tinubu and support him

How do you want to explain this?

Saraki found his voice the other day...

Today Dino has found his voice....

Tomorrow it will be Dogara....

History555:
Consolation is allowed

stoooopodity is completely allowed.

Giadom was used to remove Oshiomole.

However the orchestrators did not expect that Buhari would put a seemingly neutral person so fast.

They had envisaged Victor Giadom staying put for some months, enough to hold the aces and put their man when the time comes.

But it hasn't quite gone their way because anybody including Tinubu could still grab the structure in due course.

BrutalJab:
Shut up, if Obaseki didn't fight Oshiomole, things like this won't have happened.



Obaseki isn't a coward like Ambode your Yoruba brother.

I see how he fought!

By getting thrown out of APC.

joyandfaith:
if there is no obaseki-oshiomole feud, oshiomole would still be chairman. well edo is no lagos and lagos is not edo. most lagosians are mumu. according to lagbaja, 20 million mumus. they don use their heads fry akamu with too much eruku osodi for their brains.

That's not the issue.

The issue is who did the hatchet job?

Your Obaseki has already lost and chickened out and run to PDP while men were doing the job.

Staro:
[size=12pt]

Lol ... this OP is just fooling himself.
Giadom achieved his aim of dislodging Oshiomole and the largely Tinubu-controlled NWC.

This is what Amaechi, Bagudu, Mai Mala, El-Rufai, Lalong, Fayemi, Akeredolu etc all wanted
and they achieved it






[/sie]

People who don't even know how Buhari came into power are now dragging power.

The whole of those 7 names you mentioned there did not contribute what only Tinubu contributed in bringing Buhari to power.

Now they are shamelessly dragging power.
