You couldn’t make it up!

Let him take that apology and shove it...!

Useless failed country that can’t guarantee the safety of lives and property of its citizens....its primary function as gov’t!

Nnamdi kanu is very stupid.

I thought Ipob has no political affiliation.

kee Ife this boy jiri choo ighanyere Ihedioha aja na garri..na dying minute.

Fault what he said and leave the messenger out of it! What have you done or said publicly to champion the democratic choice of the people being respected?

Mikehot:
This should be the last time I hear any Twitter threat or online broadcast crap of this man here on nairaland



If you are hungry to be a freedom fighter come to Nigeria and demand it till given just like Nelson Mandela did.

If you know you want to enjoy life while in exile enjoy it in peace like an exiler.

You cant chew from both sides of the mouth on it

Zip it mate! If you don’t wanna read anything on Mazi Kanu or IPOB then just don’t click on related threads...problem solved!

Madiba wouldn’t have lasted in the struggle as long as he did if he had our savage, primitive-minded and bloodthirsty lot to contend with! If in doubt ask MKO and Kudirat Abiola, Ken Saro Wiwa, Dele Giwa, etc!

It just takes one thread on Mazi Kanu for the usual bigoted Igbo haters to come charging in....falling over themselves to get their caustic comment in first! All this for someone they claim is inconsequential and not a threat!

Hope it doesn’t become audio airport oh! We’ve been down this road before!

Dereformer:
Supreme court will order a re-run of Imo gubernatorial election.

The incorruptible justices have realised the error in their earlier judgement.

An election will be held within 90 days.

Hope Uzodinma will, this time, be roundly defeated.

Never underestimate APCs lust for power and capacity to rig elections!

APC has scammed us and we already know. Tinubu is a lame duck and we already know too. Oshiomohle is even more popular in the apc than him.

Our amotekun would correct the security lapses of the federal government. Call it any name...regional outfit, south west outfit, we don't care. I'm so disappointed in the south eastern leaders the way they're playing with the lives of their people. Na only mouth dem get. They've never been united and that's why it seems they're lagging behind in all things. How can umahi of a governor say in RUGA they stand? The yeye program isn't implemented yet, fulanis are killing maiming their men and raping their women. He just talks uncontrollably or is it because of the 80% greek gift funding contribution by the federal government that's "sharking" him? Their leaders have been mortgaging the future of their people from time immemorial. Just last week, a young fulani herder was threatening to kill an igbo farmer just because the latter complained that his crops were damaged by the former's cows. The fulani boy said thunder paya( as in thunder fire) ya papa and mama...in igbo land Had he held a gun during the exchange of words, he wouldn't have hesitated to pull the trigger. Any doubting Thomas should just watch the link below.

And umahi once said their region was the safest yet, herders keep unleashing terror in their land. I travelled on same eastern road a few weeks back where we stopped midway because herdsmen were unleashing terror on the road. They kidnapped and took their victims into the bush. A whole vehicke filled with passengers were emptied. We had to stop for almost 30 minutes before hundreds of vehicles who were already on alert could hit the road to continue their journey. The armed mobile police sighted barely a km away from the scene couldn't near them. The earlier the igbo youths realise they don't have sincere leaders who could defend them, the better.

On amotekun we stand.

Insecure twerp!

What's the correlation between the topic of this thread and the south-east or Umahi? Instead of you to face your useless, lying party, you're yapping nonsense about the south-east that has made it clear from the get-go that Buhari/APC are bad market, and have nothing to offer but sorrow, tears, pain and death!

My education expensive shit your pops cant afford, private from Nursery to Uni , MSC inview , if any of my alma mater, Alumnus is what you and your father can afford even decades after then lets chest beat, lets see how poor you and your pops are

and again if you have your tax clearance certificate lets post that so we can show your pops shouldn't even argue with my boy

Dude, fuc/k off from this thread together with your cosseted, over-pampered ass! I know your type quite well: most likely the spawn of a quota-system enabled politician or gov’t contractor that owes his existence to ‘one Nigeria’ and its warped political-economy! Is it any wonder you travel aimlessly all over the globe, clocking up air miles like a philanderer has notches on his bed-post for all his conquests in bed! Your vociferous support for the status-quo now makes sense!

This is what democratic governance should be...not sitting in gov’t house like a hermitic despot! Umahi is the only one that does this ‘meet the press’ in the south-east!

plusfield:
Let me start with your no 3. Are you aware that more than 50% of the footwears worn in these poor African nations are made in aba. Dont take my word for it. Visit Ariaria market in ABA, go to the bakassi end of the market where the footwears are made and find out who their markets are. There you will see customers from these African countries loading footwears, what did the federal government do? They closed the borders. That has accounted for loss of billions in revenue to these hardworking industrialists. The FGN knew what they were doing. They claim it's to stop illegal imports but killing legitimate exports. Enyinnaya Abaribe who represents that Constituency cried out. Did they listen? No. As along as its igbos, they can go to hell.

On your no 2. Yes, there is abundance of sun in the north. Are they harnessing it? No. What of the mineral deposits like gold that is there? They are killing any stranger that dares to come mine it with them while they still control ownership of over 65% of the oil wells in the Niger delta. And also, with regards to the power generation, I spoke once with a former boss of NERC and he told me that the law in place as we speak states that if you generate anything more than 1 megawatt of power, it must be handed to the national grid. So that stifles competitiveness and hardwork.

On no 4, I can assure you that though the south east had lagged behind in the area of industrial agriculture and farming, a lot of investment is going on as we speak in that regards by private industrialists and we pray that they reap the dividends of their investments because those who tried in the past had their fingers burnt because the govt put up policies that conferred huge advantage and favour to some competitors in the north. But for now, a silent revolution is growing in that sector now and self sufficiency and exports is the goal.

I dont know much about that no 1 point raised. Will look it up.

When i read the fact stated in the first paragraph, the initial sentiments i get are anger and frustration! Aba has this much going for it, yet it doesn’t show in the appearance of the city, neither does it reflect in the states revenue or budget!

blinking001:
What is wrong in the federal government implementing RUGA? I honestly don't see anything wrong in the RUGA initiative. May God continue to give our darling president the knowledge to lead this nation right.

You ask what is wrong with RUGA? It’s a gateway to allow the Fulani gain settlements and become indigenous to the south, that’s what’s wrong with it! Given the way they breed and import their kinsmen from other parts of Africa...give them a decade and they’ve overrun a section of your state! Jos-North LGA has experienced it first-hand!

NGpatriot:
Aguiyi-Ironsi the then ibo head of state who was supposed to punish the sadistic blood thirsty ibo coup plotters and killers did not punish them and to make matters worse, he abolished REGIONAL administration that separated all the regions in Nigeria.


He abolished federalism and replaced it with a unitary system of government with decree 34 of 1966. The decree abolished the regions and unified the federal and regional government aka Unitary aka On Nigeria.

Aguiyi-Ironsi, the ibo head of state joined us all together because he wanted one Nigeria so now you have one Nigeria, ENJOY the one Nigeria and stop crying.

You've made your bed, now have a good night sleep on it.

And the hole gets even deeper!

I think part of your problem is that you've been fed on a strict diet of hatred towrds Igbos right from your childhood days as an almajiri! It shows in the bigoted rubbish you post in the name of having an argument! There's no deviating from the script with you: it's all about 'Ibo' coup....Ironsi abolished regions and didn't punish the coupists.....blame Ironsi and Zik for what Nigeria is facing today......etc! You've somehow got it into your diseased, hate-filled pea-brain that, but for the 'nyamurees/Ibos', your 'one Nigeria' would have by now been El-Dorado and well on its way to attaining Uhuru!

What do you understand a military regime to be? So in your daft reasoning, you reckon there could be a military regime at the centre competing with the regions....with all the powers bestowed on them in the first republic? You never heard that with the military there's a distinct command and control structure that culminates at the top with the chief of army staff who takes orders directly from the head of state? A dispassionate appraisal of the Ironsi unification decree would show it was promulgated by the military strictly for governance purposes, and had nothing to do with Ironsi wanting Igbos to control everything as you lot would like us to believe. In any case, when the unification decree was promulgated, it did not abolish regional gov'ts as you suggest...the regions were still in existence up until when Gowon took the saddle and abolished them to create the 12 state structure. With the return to democracy in 1979, the useless 1979 constitution (and subsequent ones that were to follow) was unitary in all but name. One then wonders why you hypocritical lot have never bothered to correct the 'unforgivable wrong' of Ironsis' military regime, but rather have elected to continue with the same unitary system of gov't you blame him for! Two-faced hypocrisy at its basest form!

You say Ironsi joined us all together because he wanted 'one Nigeria'! You see how deceptive, slippery and shameless you are? You rail against Ironsis' actions (an easy scapegoat for you when your support of the status-quo is challenged.....just blurt out 'but Ironsi started it' and the heat is deflected on to the 'nyamurees')....you rail against his actions in promulgating the unification decree, yet turn around and say the 'one Nigeria' you accuse him of instituting should be retained! Dude, you're confused as well as shameless!

You need to change your moniker to FULANIpatriot because that's what Nigeria means to you leeching liabilities: it's the interest of Islam and the Fulani first, and then whatever little interest remains, you can give it to Nigeria! The reason you want 'one Nigeria' to continue is not because of some noble ideals like fairness, togetherness, love for ones fellow compatriots, equity, and such 'piffle'.....no, you want 'one Nigeria' to continue because it's you meal-ticket, your ATM, and a means to lord it over others! You're what you are today based mainly on the sweat, resources and entrepreneurial ingenuity of others, and if you had a shred of self-respect left in you, you would hang your head in shame!

gidgiddy:
Doesnt it look strange to you that a Yoruba man who was the most senior officer in Nigeria at the time, and should have been president, only got support from an Igbo in the East?

Methinks that, like chloroquine, they find that fact too bitter a truth to swallow! It’s mind-boggling though how they let the Fulani get away with so much impudence, yet if Igbos do just 5% of that, it’s panic-stations and they sound the alarm bells that Yorubaland is about to be taken over!

NGpatriot:
What we are saying is, we had a regional arrangement when all the regions managed their resources, but your forefathers in the SE restructured Nigeria to Nigeria that you have today, they wanted one Nigeria so they abolished regionalism.

This is what you asked for so reap what you sow.

In your bid to try and give a counter-argument, you wind up digging an even deeper hole for your sad self!

When did my forefathers ‘restructure Nigeria to Nigeria we see today’? Igbos haven’t controlled the center since 1966....it’s been mainly you core northern muslims! So just what is it that my forefathers did in 1966 that you haven’t been able to reverse since then? Or could it be that you secretly prefer a unitary form of gov’t but haven’t got the balls to come out and boldly proclaim it...preferring instead to keep quiet and deflect the blame on Igbos when challenged on your stand on the national question?

Check the dustbin!

SLAP44:
See panic by outsiders to stop a moving train. If only shame will allow you mention your state and region, I have enough time to teach you some lessons in history today.

Feel free to learn.

These people are disgusting!

It’s a known fact that Ndigbo are the most confident about going it alone....in their own country if need be! Yet they keep on being disturbed by the very people that despise them and mock their economic challenges, that they can’t survive on their own! Who are they kidding!

So this giant elephant project was sponsor by federal government.
Igbo really benefit more than north in this Buhari administration. But unfortunately they will still abuse him and wish him dead.

When you collect a load of abuse now, you will say IPOB yute have started! How are Igbos benefitting more than the north in this cursed admin’? You think this is a federal gov’t project?

Switruth:
. You expend so much energy over this Biafra issue. Just leave them alone. Jokers or not.

Funny thing is, he wouldn’t get this much worked up and run the risk of HBP if he could just try minding his own business for once!

How could they have spotted the index case at the airport and stopped him when he was yet to develop a fever and hence a temperature?

But if the minister of health is guilty of dereliction of duty in any way, then let’s just say he’s lucky he’s not minister in Kim Jon Uns North Korea, or else.......!

Cyberterror:
I abhor brainless people like you. What is the technicality in quoting the electoral act that clearly stipulates a time limit for resolution of post election cases in the supreme court? Your stupidity is in overdose.

You’re irredeemably daft! Saying ‘time limit’ should make the Supreme Court decline to look at Ihediohas’ submission on its own merit is trying to dismiss the appeal for a review based on a technicality!

What you’re saying in effect is that the Supreme Court shouldn’t look into the possibility they may have been misled and given a judgment in error based on criminality just because the time limit has expired, thereby allowing Uzodinma to benefit from his purported acts of illegality!

If Ihedioha didn’t meet the 2/3 spread of votes, is it Uzodinma that now met said requirement?

You probably have the same notion of the judicial term technicality as that held by your Tanko Mohammed! If you don’t wanna hear from me then quit posting cra’p....more so on a thread that has fuckall to do with you!

Cyberterror:
There are only 2 reasons why Ihedinjo will not be returned as Imo state governor.

1) He did not get up to 2/3rd win all over the state which is compulsory.

2) Second but more importantly, the 60 days for the supreme court to decide his case from the day the appeal court gave their own judgement is over.

You people are truly despicable! You know you have no legal leg to stand on based on the merits of the case, so you resort to what you’re good at: searching for technicalities!

Why you lot that say Ndigbo are inconsequential yet are determined to get a foothold in Alaigbo by hook or crook is what one can’t understand!

egorov:
God help us

More to the point....God help him!

Enyibaba:
By Anayo Ugwoegbu


Fraud was one of the invariable factors established by Hon. Emeka Ihedioha, through his legal team, led by Chief Kanu Agabi SAN, CON in their application for the Supreme Court to set aside its January 14, 2020 misjudgement on the 2019 Imo State governorship election, that the apex court erroneously awarded to Senator Hope Uzodimma.

And according to pundits, fraud is indeed apt and succinct summary of the whole mumbo-jumbo pertaining to the highly controversial and contentious 388 polling units and the ridiculous votes and result sheets emanating therefrom, which were submitted by Uzodimma, and on which the Supreme Court based its misjudgement.

Without any further preambles, the following is the exact and precise, unedited statement by Hon. Emeka Ihedioha, through his legal team to prove that the declaration of Senator Uzodimma as winner of the election and consequently governor of Imo State was based on fraud.

Enjoy the treasure of facts:

"THE JUDGMENT SOUGHT TO BE SET ASIDE IS A NULLITY IN THAT WAS OBTAINED BY FRAUD"

"The Appellants/Respondents misled this court into holding that a total of 213,495 votes were unlawfully excluded from the votes scored by the 1st Appellant/Respondent in the gubernatorial election of 9th March 2019 in Imo State.

"The 1st Appellant/Respondent admitted under cross-examination that it was him and not the 3rd Respondent [INEC] or any of its officials, who computed the result that allotted to him the 213,495 votes alleged to have been excluded from his total votes in the election.

"The total votes cast as shown in the 1st Appellant’s computation was more than the total number of voters accredited for the election and in some polling units more than the total number of registered voters.

"The result computed by the 1st Appellant showed only the votes of the 1st Applicant and the 1st Appellant without specifying the votes scored by the other 68 candidates who participated in the election.

"Exhibits 63RD1 to 63RD19 (INEC Forms EC40G) show that there were no valid elections in the 388 polling units where the additional 213,495 votes claimed by the 1st Appellant were allegedly generated.

"We submit that the judgment sought to be set aside was obtained by fraud because the 1st Appellant/Respondent fraudulently misrepresented to this honourable court that he had an additional 213,495 votes which were unlawfully excluded from the final result by the 3rd Respondent. To this end the 1st Appellant/Respondent pleaded a table of excluded votes (Exhibit KGA3) which are at pages 9-27, Volume 1 of the Records. In that table the 1st Appellant/Respondent failed to plead the votes scored by the 70 candidates who participated in the election. He only pleaded his own votes and the votes alleged to have been scored by the 1st Applicant. In ADAMS v UMAR (2010) All FWLR (Pt 513) 1289 at 1386 - 1387 paras H-B it was held that –
‘While there is no obligation on the petitioner to join any candidate who lost the election as a party, the petitioner has a duty to comply with the provisions of paragraph 4(i) (c) of the First Schedule to the Electoral Act, 2006 by stating among other particulars, the names and scores of ALL the candidates that participated in the election … The raison d’etre for this is that, where in an election petition a petitioner fails to plead the scores of all the candidates at the election, it will be impossible to grant any prayer that the petitioner was the duly elected candidate or that the 1st respondent was not the duly elected candidate.’

"Apart from the fatal error of failing to plead the result of all the candidates in his table of excluded votes, the 1st Appellant/Respondent also admitted in his evidence during cross-examination at page 2601-2603 in Volume 4 of the Record that the number of votes he allocated to himself in the table are in excess of the registered voters in the polling units where he claimed he obtained those votes. He further admitted under cross-examination at page 2603 of the Record that instead of INEC he was the person who computed the disputed votes tabulated in the petition.

"In his private and personal tabulation of the votes (shown at pages 9-27 of Volume 1 of the Records) the 1st Appellant/Respondent stated in column 69 that in Polling Unit 08 in Eziama/Okpalla Ward he scored 819 votes whereas the total number of registered voters was 462. In column 285 he stated that in Polling Unit 12 in Odudiaro Ward he scored 780 votes whereas the total number of registered voters were 449. In column 377 he stated that in Polling Unit 6 in Umuozu Ward he scored 367 votes and the 1st Applicant scored 4 votes making a total of 371 votes whereas the total number of registered voters was 367. In column 384 he stated that in Polling Unit 6 in Umunkwo ward he scored 526 votes and the 1st Applicant scored 2 votes making a total of 528 votes whereas the total number of registered voters was 526. These are just a few examples of the fraudulent results the 1st Appellant/Respondent induced this court into accepting as a part of his votes.

"In the tabulation of the votes at pages 9-27 in Volume 1 of the Record, the 1st Appellant/Respondent did not state the number of accredited voters in each of the listed 388 polling units. He stated only the total number of registered voters. We submit that without a record of accredited voters, the votes alleged to have been scored in those polling units were invalid and void because there can be no valid votes without accreditation – FAYEMI v ONI (2009) All FWLR (Pt 493) 1254 at 1309 paras F-H. So evidently the scores in those 388 polling units were allocated arbitrarily. They were not the product of a valid election, and this was corroborated by the evidence of DW5 who tendered INEC Form EC40G as Exhibits 63RD1 to 63RD19 to show that in those polling units, the election was cancelled due to electoral violence as reported by the presiding officers in those units.

"Unfortunately this court was misled into accepting the fraudulent result tabulated by the 1st Appellant/Respondent and consequently 213,695 votes were added for the 1st Appellant/Respondent and 1,903 votes were added for the 1st Applicant. This brought the total number of votes cast in the election to 953,038, while the total number of voters accredited for the election as shown in Exhibit A1 was 823,743. This is a clear case of fraud and corrupt practice for which the nullification of the election is the only proper order this court can make by virtue of section 40(2) of the Electoral Act (as amended). In effect, the judgment and orders returning the 1st Appellant/Respondent as elected are contrary to law and evidence and is to that extent a nullity.

"Where a judgment is obtained fraudulently as in the instant case, we submit that the court which gave the judgment is entitled to set it aside upon an application such as this. In OGBU v URUM (1981) LPELR 2290SC at 20 paras C-E, this court held that –

‘.....a court would also have inherent jurisdiction to set aside its judgment if it could be shown that it was obtained by fraud.

"Also in EDE v MBA (2011) LPELR 8234SC at 26-28 paras E-A this court held that –
‘....this court under section 22 of the Supreme Court Act and Order 6 has the power to set aside in certain circumstances its decision like any other court where the circumstances demand, such as (i) where any of the parties obtained judgment by fraud or deceit (ii) where such a decision is a nullity or (iii) where it is obvious that the court was misled into giving the decision’."

There's nothing to add or subtract. No addition no subtraction. It a quod erat demonstradum QED!
