Plausible, but I disagree. Thanks for trying. Even my answer is a guess - but I am hoping someone will reach the same conclusion as I did. brixton: either of Shema or Yuguda for missing out as the original anointed candidate |

Okay, people. 3 governors that signed the "Akpabio" resolution for Jang voted against him. I think the following three voted against Jang: 1. Jonah Jang (Plateau - PDP Party 2. 3. Ibrahim Geidam (Yobe - ANPP Party now APC) Here is my logic: Jonah Jang: The man was said to have rejected being picked to replace the withdrawing two northern governors because of his age. He was forced to pick the form for the election only 1 hour before it happened. I think he wanted no part of GEJ's war with the NGF and decided to torpedo his own election. [s]Olusegun Mimiko: Was put in exactly the same position as Jonah Jang, and followed the same path. I believe these two probably had a conversation where they decided to be no part of the NGF wars.[/s] Ibrahim Shema: Probably felt that the only reason both were asked to withdraw was to prevent him from winning - this will agree with brixton's suggestion above. Notice how he is the only one to not include his state in the document below (he probably provided only what was necessary because he could care less). Ibrahim Geidam: This governor just found out that GEJ deceived them when he declared the state of emergency by pretending that they will continue to fulfill their "constitutional duties" - only to find out that all they will be able to do is collect their salary. He is also part of the ANPP/APC alliance. [size=14pt]All in all, since GEJ refused to acknowledge signing a one-term agreement with the northern politicians the signatures in the letter below are also null and void. They did him a big favor by not making all northern governors vote against Jonah Jang. It is a warning shot for 2015.[/size] If you do not see my logic, notice that the person behind the withdrawal of the two northern governors and drafting of Jang was Aliyu - the man who first revealed to us and promised to publish the agreement GEJ signed promising to go for only one term. Okay let's hear more suggestions !!! 1 Like |

You mean Akpabio probably torpedoed GEJ's design here. That would be a real "et tu Brutus" right there. rooftech: i know.the one from south south making the most noise. if you know his antecedents 1 Like |

Governors forum’s delegation visits Chime in London. When the going was good they went looking for another missing governor together. Introduce a little largesse from GEJ into Akpabio's pocket, and the two "jet" governors (Amaechi and Akpabio) become sworn enemies. 4 Likes |

1.I'm sure all apc members, rochas inclusive, voted against jang. 2. Babangida aliyu, sule lamido, kwankwaso, nyako , wamako and taraba state gov(even dou in jang's camp by association, but was not with them in vote), i'm sure they voted against jang. NB:Taraba state gov wil not forgive jang for being d person that incited his pple against d hausas of jos north that led to d destruction of all he( now taraba gov) ever worked for and later relocated to gombe, then taraba before luck shone his way by being handpicked by the then taraba state gov, suntai, to deputise him.

Whoever or whichever it is, matters little! What really matters is that most voted for Jang but will turn against Jonathan at the "right time" - as Koruji said, this election was to give a false impression of "support" for someone who is mostly detested across the land right now. To avoid suspicion, those who have been most verbose voted against whist the true GEJ look alikes (who wait till you are down then tread upon you) will bide their time and mirror to him what he did to the north at the right time. My only concern is that GEJ is setting up the SS for a real fall. He has deployed a SoE in a specific manner and with Dokubo's noise etc, when the night of the long knives comes, (and those thugs try to cause problems) the next president already has a precedent set by their own son to do same to the SS (searching for weapons and disarming them) 1 Like |

@Chucks 01, Pls don't drag the name of Dr. Emmanuel Uduaghan into the NGF problem. Uduaghans major focus now is how to give the good people of Delta State the dividends of democracy. He is neither contesting for presidency in 2015 nor going back for second term. Be aware that we the people of Delta State are solidly behind our governor and we could care less about the presidency because the only government we know that is existing is the state government 1 Like |

I am thinking of Imoke , despite his loyalty to GEJ , that man might go at any means to rubbish Akpabio due to oil well issues. Remember if this had work out , it would have been a big elevation of Akpabio on the political engineering of GEJ 2 Likes |

GEJ, inevitably, is fighting a losing battle. Sometimes, I cannot believe how crudely divisive, openly Machiavellian and callously opportunistic the man is. Pride goes before a fall and a big fall awaits GEJ. 5 Likes |

Kwara State governor, though he assumes a pro-GEJ posture certainly voted for Amaechi. His godfather Bukola Saraki is a close ally of Amaechi and he paved the way for the emergence of Amaechi after his tenure as the chairman of NGF, also Saraki doesn't seem to be in the camp of GEJ. He surely most have influenced his godson to support Amaechi! 1 Like |

chuks01: any list without delta is not correct..emmanuel uduaghan will not support the emmergence of jonathan in 2015..its a risk for him cos he is supposedly meant to be with his cousin in a london prison and GEJ still wants that.you are very correct. If you place Udeaghan and Amaechi as 2015 worst enemies to jona, is Udeaghan. udeaghan pretend to high heaven but will definitely vote against jona. When i was working in delta then, i knew those people who were very sectional, highly uncooperative with others, feels far superior to others and were always sidelining other ethnic groups, coupled with Ibori's case, Udeaghan is worst than Ameachi. Therefore will and may have voted against Jong. 1 Like |

Read how the governors voted here: NGF election: Video shows how Governors voted Video recording of Friday’s Nigeria Governors Forum (NGF) election exclusively obtained by Sunday Mirror has revealed what transpired during the poll. The election which has led to a cleavage in the Forum with a faction being led by Rivers State Governor, Rotimi Amaechi, and the pro-Jonathan camp led by the Plateau State Governor, Jonah Jang, shows clearly that all 35 governors at the meeting were in full agreement during the conduct of the poll, the counting of the results and the decision to announce the outcome of the election to the public. From the video which was recorded by one of the governors with his smart phone, Sunday Mirror observed that all the governors sat in a boardroom of the Rivers State Governor’s lodge where the election was held. When the counting of votes began, from the video recording, the expectation was that Jang would win because the ballots that were initially picked were all in his favour. This made one of the governors present to jocularlycomment, ‘Jang in earl lead’. It eventually turned out that he had only 16 votes. After the counting of votes, the DG was heard clearly saying, “it’s obvious that Rotimi Amaechi had won and all the governors in attendance agreed and a decision was thereafter taken by all those present to go out and announce the result to waiting journalists. This was eventually done by Okauru. Continue reading from here: http://nationalmirroronline.net/new/ngf-election-video-shows-how-governors-voted/ 1 Like |
