I dont study tales by moonlight fabricated by Osus, somebody just said Oba of Lagos vacated his throne for Buhari now Buhari is the new Oba of Lagos! Yoruba history as documented predates the current Oba of Lagos

To refer to Olowo Eko as an Osu is to risk been thrown into the Lagos Lagoon

FrLukas:
Really?

Is the United States weak then cos it has so many Allies?

Forming alliances makes you stronger.

Those who don't form alliances become easy prey for their enemies.

My point is that their are weaker parties in an alliance

HAKYN1:
Please peruse Nigerian history for further information

Please read up on the statements credited to Olowo Eko on the original settlers of Lagos.

HAKYN1:
But then Yorubas own and named (Bini)Benin

Is that the position of The Olowo Eko!

SirBunky85:
is obaseki not a beneficiary of godfatherism?I hate hypocrites

He owes it a duty to Edo State citizenry where godfatherism is in the way of good governance to ditch same. This should not be viewed through the prism of political patronage simpliciter.

Witchersunited:
Carrying his deputy everywhere like homeless people, you are dead politically, I feel sorry for you, ambode got nothing on how your story will go, ungrateful goat, oshiomole moved heaven and Earth to make you governor, iyamo had more supporters and network, they did everything, forced you on people and you bit the finger that helped you, anybody that knows Edo politics knows what I'm saying, it's really painful to see, how this person was elevated to what he is now and he is acting like he got to where he is on his own, he didn't even talk during campaigns, it was oshiomole that kept telling people that they should vote him to continue his work

All the plaques of Egypt fall on your ungrateful head idiot

Isn’t political office essentially about serving the people maximally? The germane question should be- is he serving well as Governor of Edo State?That gratitude you talk about is the entrenchment of godfatherism which is one the reasons we have bad governance in Nigeria.

sarrki:
I thought obaseki and shuaibu always say edo is not Lagos?

E be like say jungle don dey mature

Quite the contrary simply because Lagos Island belongs the Binis.

So he can get Omo N’oba N’edo who owns Lagos Island and the Iga-Iduganran Palace involved in Edo politics to his advantage!

Whiteman laughing at the protesters! Democrats don’t carry placards in protest against a court judgment- they appeal instead! When the final court Judgment is had they strategise towards winning the next election - not carry placards! As things stand if the PDP manages its loss effectively APC stands to suffer a heavy electoral defeat at the next elections in Imo State! PDP should be busy gaining more political capital a and discrediting APC via vibrant ward meetings and robust criticisms of Uzodinma and Okorocha governments. Besides, PDP has outrightly overwhelming majority in The Imo State House of Assembly to keep Gov. Uzodinma’s blood pressure sizzling in the next four years he’ll wish that judgment never went his way.

FrLukas:
True. But the control must be firmly in your hands.

Not necessarily. In fact it is the weak who needs an ally oftentimes.

FrLukas:
The best security is the one which is in your hand and not in the hands of strangers.

Having allies helps assure security

True

Until a conviction is had in court - neither of the men!

Just so he can be The President Atiku will support the idea to have The Sloth protecting the entire country! That’s how desperate he is to become Nigeria’s President and it appears it’s the only thing he lives for.

AMvanquish:
Just Imagine, Someone that is supposed to be a Role model and Mentor. Seen free money and was doing anyhow..

Seeing some money as “free” money is a major reason folks disburse money in such manner. Noteworthy that you see it so as well! Truth is no money is “free” money! We must be responsible!

Once the Apex Court has spoken True Democrats wait till election time comes round again not roam the streets aimlessly in the name of a protest march. They need to pay a courtesy call to Al Gore and Goodluck Jonathan. Democrat indeed!

Necessary

Good

Use Lawyers and requisite professionals whatever you do. The smallest electrical fault I must handle has to pass through an Electrcian!

Hope Meghan no go spoil Harry life like this

She already messed up his destiny! Quite saddening. No birth is accidental. It is incumbent on everyone to live for what you were born. He was royalty to do royal but just messed up.

They know. It is their stock in trade to annoy with irrational positions on issues with a view to achieving a preconceived end! The South have been their mule and meal ticket for as long as one can remember and the North is not about to untie and let the mule go without more!

Hope you were holding a mirror when you wrote that...
You would do well to INFORM yourself that only a decision was issued but the written judgment itself will follow later. SMH

Meanwhile, the Court has created the following UGLY precedents:
(1) ended up validating more votes than the number of registered/accredited voters;
(2) decided that all of the votes in 388 polling units were cast for only 1 candidate/party;
(3) ignored its own precedents that proof must be made for each individual polling unit; and
(4) replaced the findings of fact by the fact trier (the tribunal) without conducting a fact hearing.

For the avoidance of any doubt, I think of both of the PDP and the APC as merely two sides of the SAME criminal enterprise...
I also acknowledge the Supreme Court’s decision is final, but nonetheless let’s not deceive ourselves: the decision was GARBAGE!
>

The truth you are obviously not comfortable with is that the Law about dumping documents on the court just changed. Until the Supreme Court reverses itself it stays that way! That only a decision was given is the more reason you should have refrained from an uninformed comment not having had the opportunity to read the Full judgment. Stay in shape Amigo!

When it starts every man should be man enough to walk away from his spouse and get on his knees in prayer and praise to God who gave Adam Eve.

9jaRealist:
Abegi, which kind of "logical argument" gives us more valid votes than accredited voters?!

Granted that the PDP and APC are merely two sides of the SAME criminal enterprise, but let's not stand reality on its head!
>

Informed comments are better than uninformed ones. Those who read are ready. Read up on the judgment and ask a Lawyer or two where you are not clear on what you read and then you will be ready to comment on this thread!

PDP has come to a sorry pass indeed! Imagine a Party Chairman saying stuff like this! He is supposed to be educated and claims to be a democrat! How far away is four years to warrant a tear-down of the Supreme Court just because a decision is considered unfavourable! Besides, that decision is sound in law and logic. Secundus should at best be second fiddle in PDP administration. By the way, his penchant for making obviously bad and uninformed choices has APC presently in power in Osun State. Ogunbiyi was sure to coast home to comfortable victory against APC’s Oyetola who was secretly praying for PDP to field the dancing bear who like forever is a hard sell!

gidgiddy:
Its not possible to love every government in power. We are only human beings and hate is a natural emotion.

Not in dispute. However my point is that it is better to be proactive about administrations that come into power but not to outrightly hate same. I agree hate is a natural emotion but am quick to add that it can be controlled. Best to do so.

Just yesterday or so the power Minister indicated we were to expect long hours of uninterrupted power supply!

gidgiddy:
You are not missing anything. Uche Okwukwu is Secretary General of Ohanaeze, an Ikwerre man and an Igbo man. Ikwerres are Igbos who sometimes deny being Igbo because of the politics of Oil. Unfortunately for them, they speak Igbo as their ancestral language and have Igbo surnames, so as much they can deny it all they want, they are not fooling anyone

Sadly, Uche Okwukwu is one of those Igbos who supports any government in power. If PDP is in power today, his tune will change.

Most Igbos dont like APC. Rather than follow what the majority of his people want, Uche Okwukwu has remained an "AGIP" (Any government in power)

What good is there in Hating Any Government In Power? (HAGIP). Hatred is a killer! It ostracises and keeps you out in the cold and shortchanged in life!! Stop hating!!!

Meanwhile the National Assembly whose duty it is to amend the cfrn’99 to enhance the security of lives in Nigeria by allowing creation of State Police is playing deaf and dumb going about with heavy armed escorts because they know the short staffed federal only police can’t handle security effectively. One day their selfishness will get the better of them like it did the former Chief of Air Staff Bad Badeh!

The Iranian Army is the fall guy!

He is not stupid as some suppose but merely acting out a script to test the waters. All these won’t go on for longer.
