So because of that we should punish the governor by handing over the state to Tinubu?

Does your logic sound sane to you?

OAM4J, Mynd44 He breaks Rule 2 yet again.

Is Obaseki not playing God Father by inaugurating those that are loyal to him and leaving out 14 APC members?
Why is it that it’s only Obaseki out of 6 contestants against the direct primary?

popez:


Obaseki is the governor and Chief security of the state. If he says indirect primaries is best and safest for his state, who is oshiomhole to counter him? We are in the middle of a pandemic, putting people's life at risk over mere vendetta shouldn't be encouraged by any well-meaning Nigerian

seanfer:


Will Obaseki dictate to INEC how to organize the election? It’s funny that you people want to claim that ordinary Executive Order supersede the Constitution.
Obaseki may be disqualify because of the executive order by his party because it is anti-party.
You refused to say anything on his refusal to swear in legally elected 14 APC members. I guess that’s right and not against the law to you.

popez:


You seem to be getting something mixed up. The mode of primaries conducted by a party has nothing to do with the constitution of the country.
And Inec also doesn't conduct party primaries.

You mixed everything up. I can barely understand what you wrote.

Btw, Obaseki refusing to inaugurate some HOA members doesn't in any way mean they should conduct direct primaries and risk the lives of the good people of Edo state.

seanfer:


You're the one getting it wrong.. There is a room for direct primary in the APC constitution and the NWC is vested with the power to choose and organize the party primary.
It is funny how only Obaseki out of 6 candidate is against the party decision and you are here supporting the minority decision.

popez:


Bros, Obaseki is the governor of the state! The chief security of the State! He'll say and act on what will keep his state safe. If he says the direct primaries isn't safe for his state and his people, NWC has absolutely no right nor jurisdiction to override his decision! Do you need me to write in caps before you understand me, bro?

seanfer:


You just to choose to believe what you want.
DO you know that Indirect primary is double election and there is more risk than the Direct primary?
Indirect Primary- there will be ward congresses to select the delegate, this will be election by all party members at their wards to choose the delegates that will travel to benin. by doing this You and Obaseki didn't see any danger/risk of covid-19 spreading.
Then the elected delegates will travel to Benin in their thousands and converge in a place to vote.. remember that the delegates are not going to vote according to the wishes of those that sent them, because they will vote for the highest bidder.

Meanwhile a Direct primary is when all the party members converge at their wards and stand behind the poster of their choice candidates and results announced and everybody will go to their houses.

Now tell me why Obaseki want the people to go through all this stress just because of his own selfish gain.
I hope I have been able to enlighten you about the 2 modes of primaries and please tell me which is more better in curbing the spread of the virus.

popez:


In a direct primary, every registered party member gets to vote. Now do you understand the implication of that;thousands of people gathered at a place in the middle of a pandemic?
Do you even realize the number of lives that will be put at risk? Do you? Why don't they instead adopt the indirect mode whereby selected delegates will do the voting. Less number of people exposed, social distancing observed, the state and people remain safe. But No, you lots want direct primaries so you can hand over the state to Tinubu!

seanfer:


You’re still getting it wrong. Even those selected delegates must be voted for by all registered party members.
Seems your problem is with Tinubu and the last time I checked Tinubu is just a single person.

popez:


They will be voted for at ward level where social distancing can be observed. At ward level, the number of people gathered can be controlled and they'd be far lesser compared to thousands that will gather for the indirect primary mode.

I have a problem with godfatherism and theft.

seanfer:


At the bolded you just support the reason why Direct Primary is the best. Have a nice day.

popez:


And also remember, Edo state is not Lagos state.

Mraphel:

Edo's case is now worst compared to Lagos...what's state are u from? U must reply o

popez:


Edo state's case isn't worse o. If they had allowed
him to proceed to the primaries, contest and then lose, it would've destabilised Obaseki more.


Bros, this your question ehn

Mraphel:

He should proceed to the primaries with forged certificates? Nawa o

popez:


Lmao. Forged certificate? Why did they now clear him in 2016?

Mraphel:

Bayelsa's saga has taught a serious lesson
