It could be true.

Remember that Edo is not Lagos.

In Lagos, you are allowed to test your popularity in a direct primary that involves all registered party members.

In Edo, you are disqualified from contesting a direct primary by the same party that previously qualified you to contest the party gubernatorial primary 4yrs ago.

In Lagos, the incumbent governor did not have the support of the State House of Assembly, so any attempt to defect to the opposition after losing his own party's primary, would have most likely resulted to an impeachment by the state legislature.

In Edo, the State House of Assembly has only 10 Legislators who were sworn in by the embattled Governor, and are loyal to him, while the remainder majority 14 Legislators were deliberately not sworn in by the undemocratic Governor. So any attempt to defect to the opposition party after his disqualification by his own party, does not pose any risk of impeachment by the loyal state legislature.

Certainly, Edo is not Lagos.

Very easy in Nigerian politics.

The saw way Tinubu and El Rufai campaigned for Buhari in 2015, regardless of what they said earlier.

The same way the backbones of Jonathan campaigned for a Fulani Muslim Atiku in 2019, regardless of their previous boasts from 2011 onwards that an uncircumcised Philistine and Fulani would never rule Nigeria again.

I thought some said that Edo is not Lagos?

Indeed! Edo is not Lagos.

In Lagos, the sitting Governor was allowed to contest the direct primary involving all registered party members, which he lost democratically.

In Edo, the sitting Governor was disqualified by the same party that qualified him 4yrs ago, such that he would not even be contesting the APC direct primaries.

Ambode will be laughing where he is, upon realizing his own situation was even better, and truly Ambode will agree that Edo is not Lagos.

The same frustrated OP made similar posts just yesterday but has failed to march down to Tinubu Square to do the needful.

Or is he waiting for Government to do what protesters did in UK?

Davash222:
In spite of this humiliation and wickedness, the Afonjas still see Umu Chukwu as their problem and number one enemy. Still licking the asss of people that humilated and killed one of their illustrious and sophisticated leader.
This slavery is beyond my comprehension.

Wailing clansman, it will be well with your troubled soul.

Take this Fulani shoulder and cry your eyes out.

YourbaAreSlaves:
I repeat was it not the same check forger that was brutally murdered that is being celebrated?? Are you Lost?

Was there an assassination on June 12, or was there a considerably free ad fair democratic election that was latter annulled, for which it is now commemorated as "Democracy Day"?

Again, I love to educate the ignorant, so now that you are found in darkness and brought into the light, you do not have to thank me for it.

YourbaAreSlaves:
Is it not the cheque forger that was assassinated they are celebrating on june 12?

I repeat, was anyone assassinated on June 12?


You don't need to thank me for the education you have received.

YourbaAreSlaves:
Happy Yoruba Leader assassination day.

Was anyone assassinated on June 12?

OK2NVME:
[s][/s]

I realise that your people do not have any documented history to even talk about.

So I understand your agony.

A clansman has spoken like a plebeian that he is.

Your own trauma defies rehabilitation.

But has anyone realised that the clannish tribe have no history?

Is it that there was nothing historic or accomplished about this tribe in the 17th or 18th century?

In fact, the only tale we know about any historic clansman is about Jaja of Opobo who was captured as a slave by the Ijaws.

I have heard tales of Nana of Itshekiri; I have heard tales of middle ages Ozolua and the more recent ovonramwen Nogbaisi of Bini; I have heard of Princes Amina of Zazzau; I have heard of the Kanem-Bornu empire; I have heard of Sodeke, Ogedengbe and Alaafin Abiodun all from Yorubaland.

I have never heard any significant tale of the irrelevant clannish tribesmen.

MinorityOpinion:
You heard it from Kanu? He also said this

Below are the violence inciting statements Nnamdi Kanu allegedly made;

1. "...When we speak, the Zoo trembles, that is what happens when a cattle rearing terrorist and paedophile is your ruler."

2. "If you find anybody in your village asking after Radio Biafra kill the baboon Awusa Fulani or Yoruba bastard. Let them keep searching as we keep tweeting for #Biafra."

3. "Buhari is a shameless Paedophile and rapist."

4. "Buhari is a Terrorist he should be killed."

5. "Nigeria is a zoo and everybody living in that
Godforsaken zoo deserves to die."

6. "Kumuyi should be stoned and dealt with thoroughly if he comes to Aba for his planned crusade."

7. "The imbecilic Goodluck Jonathan is a disgrace to humanity and deserves to be skinned alive for handing over to an Hausa goat."

8. "By the time we finish dealing with the animals in the zoo, there'll be none left to tell the story."

9. "We are assembling weapons and we need some more money to thoroughly equip our military to enable us unleash mayhem on Nigeria."

10. "Niger Deltans are cowards; we know what to do to them. Akwa Ibom, Bayelsa, Delta, Rivers, Edo and Cross Rivers State are our territory and anybody who tries to oppose us will be crushed."

11. "Buhari married his wife after raping her several times, the records are there."

12. "No Ibo man should attend any Church where the pastor is a Yoruba man, they are criminals and fools."

13. "Nigeria should prepare for war, we are coming to annihilate you, my secret service are already studying the zoo and strategising."

14. "Its either Biafra or death..."

After all said and done, the coward fled his Biafran village when he sighted the Army 5miles away.

Oshigun:
The fun begins. Just the variety of Igbo I like to use for Suya i.e the sufferhead who can't confront the truth and must always fight the convenient Yoruba 'enemy' they have brainwashed the mugu to hate so he can remain blind to the wicked and deceitful actions of so-called Igbo leaders like Kanu.

Decades in and decades out, una mumu never dey do lai lai. Like Ojukwu like Kanu. Deceptive and irresponsible sociopaths.

Old Radio Biafra = new Radio Biafra i.e tools of lie and propaganda used to deceive gullible Igbos and put them in harm's way only to blame Yorubas when the worst happens. Pity you guys sha. Your self-serving and wicked leaders have been mumuing you for decades till date yet you continue following them blindly and failing your children only to remain blaming Yorubas for your problems.

https://africacheck.org/2020/01/02/analysis-how-pro-biafra-disinformation-machine-churns-out-fiction-as-facts/

The misinformation from late Biafra propaganda is worthy of a topic of its own.

horsepower102:
A gala hawker makes more money in a day than the typical civil servant. They make more money than so many Nigerian university graduates..

Trust me, if they weren't making money, they would have abandoned the business long ago.

IPOB bureau of Statistics at its very best.

Tribal speculation always exalted above factual statistics.

No wonder a whole tribe is still wailing many weeks after their boasts and arrogance was flattened by facts and figures from research that was conducted in the East, but because a Yoruba man heads the agency, he must have corrupted the research to punish the emotional cry babies.

Look at what NBS did with the recent statistics. If we had a credible media house with strong investigative journalism, we could have easily debunked it on National television.

So the facts released by the NBS was so painful that even clansmen yet unborn will be regaled with tales of how national statistics traumatized an emotional and petty tribe?

And what would Upper Iweka journalists have done about the NBS report?

Would they have gone to Ogbete market to conduct their own sampling and title it a national report?

When you are so clannish that you cannot even stand NBS reports because the head is not from your tribe, only shows why no clansmen thrives outside of his own state within the same tribal region, but easily thrive in other regions.

This tribe is cursed till eternity to be clannish.

jimyjames:
Obasanjos journey from Lagos to meduguri locked in the trunk of a car , was more humbling

Any lie to make you sleep well at night is welcome.

How will you explain the road to Abidjan to your children?

kingzizzy:
Yeah, when Yoruba leaders run away, it is understandable. When Igbos run away, it cowardly. The worst is that Ogundipe, Obasanjo and Tinubu ran away without a fight while Ojukwu had a three year fight under his belt before running away

What a shame for Ojukwu and his clansmen. A Yoruba fellow soldier landed on Biafran soil and Ojukwu suddenly realised that his own life was precious?

What fight did Ogundipe or Obasanjo have to fight?

Can you force someone to fight an assassin, rather than avoid the assassin?

What does Tinubu a civilian politician have to do fighting the military government?

I like how you are agonized by your legendary cowardice that you couldn't sleep well but had to awake this morning and wail.

Continue shedding tears.

jimyjames:
Afomjas are born cowards , verbal warriors

The road to Abidjan can be very humbling for boastful clansmen.

tutudesz:
The names you listed did not start a war that killed thousands, no they ran away when their lives were in danger! Ojukwu left his men and people to pay for his sins

You've forgotten the zoo animal that dared the army to enter his Biafra, that they will not depart alive?

When the army eventually showed up, the coward called on Igbo youths far and near to come and engage the army in suicidal battle, while he packed his own bags and fled with his parents.

He was so scared that he went into hiding for over a year, only to resurface to lament about his dead dog and position himself to bargain with politicians who would be willing to pay for the support of his terrorist group.

Very dry.

An agonized clansman is ashamed of the epic and tragic cowardice of his kin, and has to find solace in mudslinging.

18yrs and 19yrs maids defiled 17yrs and 2yrs children?

Is it that the 17yrs child has Downs Syndrome or was unconscious during the sexual assault?

There is more to the claims being made by the family.

Whenever I travel abroad, I try my best to avoid Nigerians because you don't know which one is an oloriburuku amongst them.

We are too inclined to crime as a people, whether resident in Nigeria or abroad.

In fact, how many Nigerians abroad have not already overstayed their visa or abusing the limitations of the valid visa they hold?

LabDNA:
He is saying the truth. Bring facts.

Like this truth?


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4UIRwV6PLLw


Or is it the truth of Igbo Jewish DNA result that proved negative but he claimed it was positive, unbeknownst that the Jewish group that collected the samples in Nigeria had already published their negative finding in USA and Israel?

Big lie.

Except they meant temporarily out of job due to lockdown restriction in April.

What!

Lagos has been defeated?

If I was your primary school teacher, I will score this as 1/10.

You made no effort at all besides writing.

Racoon:
Thought the leadership of the bank have long foreclosed & laid this matter to rest before? Can the US and other Western imperialists let the AfDB be pls?

You are the one with a sensational headline that does not agree with the content of the news.

The AfDB as already foreclosed on any external investigation of the President, but agreed for an external review of the internal investigation already concluded.

Ok

jimyjames:
Your comment is Trash' and your question is meaningless , almost all the political leaders in Igbo land are enemies of ipob to start with.

Thanks for confirming IPOB is a trash orphan in Igboland who have no political backing?

jimyjames:
Ipobs are treated worse than boko haram , so shut up, enemies of ipob are behind this video, it never happened

So you mean IPOB has enemies in Igboland?

I thought IPOB has been enfranchised by all Igbos including the unborn, to speak on their behalf, despite already having a constitutional and democratic representation voted by the same Igbo people?

The conclusion is IPOB is just a terrorist group trying to usurp power.

Smoke55:
My Igbo Brother Should Just Avoid This Thread And Watch It Die Down...Afonjaz And Terrorist North Can Only Rant And Get Tired On The 1st Page, If They Got No Reply From Us The Thread Won't Make It To Second Page..

You tried so hard but you were unable to claim the obviously Igbo dude is Afonja, so rather than address the matter, you typically ran away like a coward.

Have you arrived in Abidjan?

Where is Gidgiddy to come regale us with his fables of how IPOB is not a terrorist group?

See intellectual debate without the bigotry that has now engulfed the forum.

I blame the pitiable current state of the forum to the moderators and the owner who are always to slow to action, resulting in a rejoinder to bigotry that eventually escalates into an online war of daily battles.

LegendHero:
This is how it worked. Each region had a marketing board who fixed the prices for the agricultural produce for export. These marketing boards pay export duties to the Federal government and that constitute like 70% of the revenue source for the FG.

Now that means the western region, followed by the Northern Region, followed by the eastern Region contributed to the runnings of the FG.

Although we might not necessarily compare that to the crude oil of the SS today but they can still share some form of comparison. Today, the FG generate revenue through many ways which include crude oil sales, taxes at ports, minings, and etc.

What the FG does is to take all the money from this sources and grant 13% derivative to the source of the commodities. So the SS will collect their normal FAAC which is shared by lot of factors and in addition their 13% derivatives.

For e.g. Lagos will also collect her normal FAAC from the government in addition to a percentage of the VAT accrued from the state by the FG.

I’m not sure if you understand what I’m trying to prove, but I just gave you a snippet.

I don't think any percentage of VAT accrues to Lagos.

It is an argument that has been made by Lagos State, and don't think the FG since this 4th republic has entertained such demands.
