Events / Re: Photos From 2019 Ojude Oba Festival In Ijebu Ode, Ogun State by klas(m): 1:35pm On Aug 14, 2019
bisoye11:
Does these celebration has anything to do with the Islamic festive period called ileya? Always celebrated after ileya and all I can see in the pictures are traditional calabash.

It is actually paying of homage to the ijebu monarch by ijebu Muslims.

It has been expanded to include all ijebus regardless of religious faiths but the original date of the third day of ileya is still retained.

Note that the religion of the reigning monarch doesn’t affect Ojude Oba

Politics / Re: Enact Law For President To Attach Portfolios To Ministerial Nominees –PDP To NAS by klas(m): 12:58pm On Jul 22, 2019
OGHENAOGIE:
you have a point anyway...so let the constitution be amended then...and those castigating the president that he don't address the country thru media chat like Jonathan and others did can now see...but then not to young to rule bill is not in constitution but was signed by the president

Good, but for the record, “Not too young to run” is actually a constitution amendment which was passed by the National Assembly, approved by at least 24 states houses of assembly and assented to by the president in 2018.

It is not an ordinary Act of National Assembly and it altered sections 65, 106, 131 and 177 of 1999 constitution.

OGHENAOGIE:
Aristotle said man without law is worse than a goat...el rufai is doing It on his own volition...another governor can come tomoro in kaduna and refuse to follow suit...but if a law is in place a leader ll have no choice than to follow...just like the president has not broken any law by not appointing any minister...

In that case, it is wrong to ask the NASS to pass a law on it. An Act of the National Assembly cannot override the constitution.

The Constitution only requires someone to be confirmed as a ‘minister of federal republic’ not minister of, or for specific portfolio. Otherwise, the constitution must be amended and that is not the sole responsibility of the National Assembly.

President Jonathan rejected the State of Nation Address Act which requires the president to address the National Assembly on a specific day as done in US and South Africa on the ground that the Nigerian constitution doesn’t allow the Nass to ask the president to address it. The constitution gives the prerogative to the president of when and if he wants to address the Nass.

Not everything that is desirable need to be legalized. There is room for precedence and generally accepted code of conduct. What we refer to as best democratic practices in advanced democracies are mostly non-legalised and non-binding good conducts of the political operators which later become precedents and norms.

Where exactly were they ambushed? Near Abuja or still far?

The prosecution lawyer said he had to be stepping out of the court to receive the call from the victims, which means the proceedings of the day had already started.

Did the ambush happened at the time they should have already been in court to give evidence or it happened much earlier and the lawyers didn’t make attempt to confirm the presence of the witnesses before proceedings began?

Just thinking aloud.

99 members signed the letter that the speaker read and nobody has denied signing so far.

Appending signatures to a letter is concurrence. Ndume was removed as the senate leader though the same means and nobody asked Saraki where the APC caucus met to vote for Ndume removal.

emmasege:
I can almost bet it with anyone that this isn't the fault of NFF but of the lifeless president who will not constitute cabinet immediately after inauguration.

With a minister in place and early submission of budget to NASS, this sort of national embarrassment can always be prevented.

A minister would have facilitated an early release of all allowances.

This is why we say that Nigeria lacks a government since 2015 or maybe we have one which goes backward while every nation is striving to move forward.I thought the lifeless one was reported to be watching the super Eagles against Burundi. So, he was watching the boys that he hasn't paid. Very inept, lifeless and wicked soul!

MY ADVICE to the boys: Boycott match sef if your allowance is not paid. Nigeria is not worth dying for. Is it not the same Naija where cows are more important than human beings, and Buhari's terrorists (Boko boys and Fulani herdsmen) more important than peace-loving Nigerians?

Your assertion doesn’t make sense.

2019 budget has been passed by the National Assembly and signed by the President since a May. What has constitution of cabinet got to do with routine work of NFF or are the new ministers going to prepare new budget for 2019?

Foreign Affairs / Re: Ex-President Mohammed Morsi Dies In Court In Egypt by klas(m): 6:40pm On Jun 17, 2019
Lukay99:


widely held belief!!! by who? killing of Christians was not even among the reasons why the military took power away from Morsi. the government of Morsi was probably the weakest Egyptian government in a very long time. he can't even control his own army (military) yet you claim he's killing Christians. the military never recognized Morsi as their commander in chief because they were still loyal to the ex military president Mubarak

Ignore them. They won’t read, how will they learn?

Egypt practices militocrazy. The presidents are usually the military chiefs right from the time of Nasser, to Sadat, to Mubarak. The military have strong influence on the polity and who gets what politically.

Morsi was the first non-military President and therefore he was doomed from day one. Imagine charging a president for espionage. Who was he spying for?

Sisi that overthrew him has just recently amended the constitution to allow him been in power till year 2030 at least. So much for democracy

Even the smuggled goods like rice and textiles through the landlocked northern neighbours into Nigeria still come through Benin access to the sea.

I mentioned Benin instead of Cameroun and Togo because rice exports figures released by Thailand show that Benin is a major destination of its exports and we know the population of Benin cannot support such quantities.

Danwakae:



EVERY ZONE MUST ALWAYS BE AT THE RECIEVING END.....I don't know ur region but.


During the reign of PDP, The southwest did not contributed anything to their party even when OBJ was stge president but yet, they always zone one of the top 4 to the zone.....I'm a proud NORTHERNER ,...If the southeast are not given any position in this dispensation, the gains the APC recorded in the 2019 election in the zone compared to that of 2015, will surely decline in 2023, and that would really affect the chances of a southwest candidate in 2023 should the APC cede the ticket to the zone.


Let us be fair to ourselves, OBJ and GEJ are both southerners, i.e SouthWest and SouthSouth, it is only the SouthEast that has not been given the previlege,

Also in the North,


Late Yar'dua and Baba Buhari are both NorthWest and even Kastina to be precise, as such, NorthEast and NorthCentral have not been given the previlege to rule , if our politicians want give a deaf ears to these issues because of selfishness, I see a great danger ahead mostly from the NorthEast and NorthCentral



It's a serious issue that most be address generally


The most peaceful and less sentimental election is that between OLUSEGUN OBASANJO and Olufalae....same region, no sentiment and no court issue.


When it is zone , when it is time for SouthWest, all political parties would go to the south west to pick their flag bearer for the president and Nigerians will decide....anything less than this,

Is a time bomb waiting to explode

Because every region must face the marginalization as long as Nigerian selfish politicians is concern...and it may explode when u try to marginalised the populated northern Nigeria



Sip it for the future.

Danwakae:



You seems not to get my point right.

The APC made alot of gains in the SouthEast in 2019. In 2015 baba Buhari didn't get 25% in any of the SouthEastern states, but in 2019 he does apart from only one state which is anambra. Forget about Majority leaders, Lawan and Gbaja are competent hands, but for the case of Gbaja, his zone already has the VP, as such is there no other competent hand from the NC or SE in the APC ?, The report that they have endorsed an Accord part person, it's a political stunt, there competent hands withing the APC....


You may not understand where I am coming from, but as a barracks brought up, who understand the root cause on the issue of boko Haram and Niger Delta militants, I won't SUPPORTS the APC stand even if it has no effect today, tomorrow people would make refence to it and it would be on record and we don't know what it may lead to.


In 2015, the APC said there was no member from the SouthEast, but because of the gains in 2019 election, there are members in both chambers, what is now the excuse ??, Don't forget that 9ja politicians are selfish, as we speak, the DSP is being zoned to the SouthSouth where the APC have just two senators, Oshobaba's boy Sen. Alimekhena(Edo) and Sen. OmoAgege(Delta) and with the Gbaja/Wase ticket in the green chamber, the SouthEast seems not to be part of the country.


My zone , Northwest gave the APC highest number of votes followed by Northeast and Northcentral, but yet , we r not fighting for any position because we get the presidency already and if we decide to do so , like the post of deputy , we can get it , but that would be selfishness.....My piont is that we should not eat today and forget tomorrow,


We need general zoning formular to check out selfish politicians including states governors seat, else the BIG PROBLEM AHEAD, NIGERIA CANNOT I REPEAT NIGERIA CANNOT SURVIVE IT....

The problem has already started in the force , many SEstern and Swwstern generals were denied their seniority right...the New IGP was a far far junior in the Police ranking.


The earlier with zone everything in Nigeria with respect to religion the better for us to live peacefully, but if we keep decieving ourselves in the name of merit and that we r one, there would be great danger waiting for us.


When Baba Buhari lost against his own regional brother Late Umar Yar'dua(may his soul rest in peace) , he didn't go to court , but when he lost against OBJ and GEJ he went to court , and after the elections many innocents southern Nigerians died in the north or what they know nothing about. When Olufalae lost against OBJ even if he was the preferred choice of the southwest , he didn't go to court because they r brothers, I pray u get my point, Because with what I am seeing in the barracks, among our politicians and the hatred amongs Nigerian varouis ethnic group, there danger ahead if we are not truthful and fair to ourselves...

The history of the 4th republic is too recent for you to attempt to distort it.

Regarding PDP electoral fortune in the south west, where did you get your figures? Apart from Obj first term at the inception of the 4th republic, which other presidential elections did PDP lose materially in SW?

Obj won SW in 2003, Yaradua defeated Atiku in 2007, GEJ defeated Ribadu in 2011. In 2015, GEJ got 47% even with his negative attitude to SW. and 2019, the PDP presidential candidates got over 40% and even won in 2 states out of 6. In that 2019, SW gave Atiku more votes than south east in terms of numbers.

On court cases, contrary to your assertion, Falae went to court against Obasanjo in 1999 and Buhari surely went to court against Yaradua in 2007. It was during that case that his running mate - Edwin Ume-Ezeoke abandoned him in court to accept ‘government of national unity’ offer from Yaradua. It was that frustration that made Buhari pulled out of ANPP to form CPC that later merge with ACN to become APC
