Does that change d fact dt shez running for the 4th term, as she openly disclosed last November?

Yes cus she is legally permitted to do so and unlike some African leaders she didn't av to manipulate d constution and make d military shoot anyone to contest.

In fact she will win without having to rig d election or bribing anyone . Germans are not complaining, I don't get y u feel u should complain on dia behalf by peddling lies

hotspec:
But why? Even Germany's Angela Merkel also wanted to amend d constitution to allow her for 4th term

Stop commenting on what u don't know and misleading people with your ignorance passing fictions as fact.

The German constitution does not av term limit and Merkel did not make any attempt to change any constitution. She contested for primaries in her party and was nominated with abt 95% of d vote without any rancour last December. If u must know she will still win d main election cus dia is no credible opponent contesting against her. She will keep contesting for as long as she wants till she loses or resigns cus d constitution allows it and it was not Merkel that changed it.

I live in Germany so that's d fact. Stop misleading people on nairaland

Why won't d olugbo yarn dust and show is ignorance of history wen he is a known usurper of the ugbo throne aided by the out going gov of ondo state.

A king who prides himself on Yoruba history but can not even step feet on the ancestral headquarters of his kingdom cus the people dia do not recognise him as dia king. A king who calls himself olugbo but cant step feet in ugbo town.

Distorting history to give himself relevance. Rubbish!!

Bros wat ur wife has is called a breast mouse in pathology. It is medically a fibroadenoma.

Fibroadenoma (Breast 'Mouse') A fibroadenoma usually appears as a well-defined, firm lump in the breast. They are often very mobile, hence the name breast 'mouse'. These benign lumps represent an alteration in the normal development of the breast and are dependent on the sex hormone oestrogen.

It will continue to grow bigger if not removed surgically cus it depends on d sex hormone for its growth. Its not cancerous but u should go to a hospital and av it removed

OZAOEKPE:
God bless Goodluck Ebele Jonathan for being an example to Africa and the world at large

Will u guys just shut up with this ur Jonathan laying examples!! Incumbent presidents in Senegal av bin losing and handing over without incidents even before gej became Nigerian president and heaven didn't fall. As at last count, 2 such incidence av bin recorded dia.

He is not d ist in africa neither is he d ist in d world to lose an election and leave so I don't get who he set examples for. Maybe shortsighted people like u who refuse to see beyond dia noses.

If u lose election u hand over and its no biggie. Gej did not set any example or do any special thing. Maybe u need to go read up on wat a democracy means

bcomputer101:
Is the OP high?


Abi no be five(5) children dey dis picture?

you should knw that one of the lady is a wife to one of the son abi u no see grandchild wey aketi carry for the pics. who is now high? u or the op?

Funnicator:
Buhari is a tyrant!! Why do this on election day? This is simply itimidation of opposition.

Buhari is now a tyrant abi. Didn't gej do d same during ekiti election that brought fayose in? Den it was rule of law abi?

We av Neva been blessed with good leaders. Gej and Buhari combined!!

LesbianBoy:
Lol....my guy saw what happened to his yoruba brother, agbonlahor...my guy quickly changed his mind

Igbos are just too sharp

Plz when did agbonlahor become a Yoruba name? Can u name the Yoruba state that bears that kinda name?

Did Donald Trump and Buhari attend the burial? Abi no be this man vanguard talk say Donald trump go attend him papa burial

Tobitrueman:


Where did you get your statistics from?

Can you prove his assertion wrong? Or u can name another African country with population higher than that of Nigeria?

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_African_countries_by_population

That link will clear ur doubts

ijustdey:






how normal human go dey have sex for inside bush.....


abi bush don turn to bedroom and comfort zone

Bros plz did you do English comprehension in your waec? Do you remember stuffs like adverbial clause and adjectival clause? Cus if you did, you won't interpret that statement as them having sex in the bush. The statement simply implies that d man dumped d corpse in d bush after d woman had died from intense love making. Hian!!!

kropotkin2:
It is a very serious offence under American federal laws for any candidate in any US election to receive campaign donations from foreign sources. I recall back in 2008 when the former DG of SEC (cant even remember or spell her name), tried raising funds to support the Obama campaign. She was promptly educated on the matter. It is impossible for anyone who cannot vote in any US election to contribute a single dollar to any candidate's campaign

Bros may God bless u abundantly. When I saw that fake news that 2008 Obama incidence came to mind straight off and I knew d news was as fake as it comes. Its a pity that many Nigerians are very ignorant gullible and will swallow any lie hook line and sinkers so far na anti govt and dey are from d land of d wailing sun. I was very disappointed when an educated friend of mine from that side quoted d news and referring to it as fact like na him bank acct them use do d forex transfer. This is someone doing his masters in Germany oo. I weep for present day naija youths seriously

siraj1402:
I hope this is not part of the plan to "kill" Mimiko totally, Olugbo is one of major financial backbone of MIMIKO and PDP in Ondo. Watching in 3D

Should everything be abt politics? Is it right for him to owe and continue living large and wasting money around while d bank dies?

ademusiwa2x:
.

[size=28pt]Buhari can not hand over the presidential palace to lagos state.. if people visit, where would they sleep, under the lagos bridge. if buhari visit lagos, where is he going to sleep, under the bridge.

except if they want to build a new one. [/size]

Wen any president past or present visits States without any presidential palace, do dey sleep under d bridge in those states? Mtweew

adekayo1234:
Just jail one person as in go to court and prove your points cos am tired of all these media trials

Did u read the story at all before writing that? Which court are u advicing them to go to again? Where did d witness say wat he said? In your room or in d courts? So its media trial wen d press reports a court proceeding that is open for any one to attend abi

CplusJason:
I'm always excited when a snake is killed.

This beast killed my coursemate back then in school.

Some of the dumb snake activist of nairaland will come and condemn this heroic act....

There's nothing friendly about that beast.

Kill a snake before it kills you.

Sebi ur own na back in school and na course mate, I lost my cousin to snake bite 3 months ago. He left behind 2 kids and a wife. He was in d hospital 3 days and still died. I hate those snakes with a passion.

Kill a snake and save a life

citizenjuwon:
Op please, There is nothing like ondo east.

There is ondo east local government area with headquarters at bolorunduro and that is where the incident happened so the op is right sir

samco19:
boss the king is fucking rich google olugbo of ugboland u go shock

U dey mind am. Ignorant people forming local champions up and down cus dey av access to free data

LorDBolton:

Sowi o. But if I ain't heard of ugbo kingdom then ur king ain't first class.

It's like calling that iwo king a first class king? Oga go siddon somewhere sip ice tea jare.

Everywhere in this south from bus stop to bus stop it's a kingdom...hw naija wan progress?

As lagos small reach i've already seen 20+ obas. Haba! Lol

I think u need to go and find out how kings are ranked by the federal govt on a per state level before u start showing ur ignorance on NL. U actually showed how ignorant u are and how u know next to nothing in trying to show us how brilliant u think u are with ur referene to d iwo king. Cus if not ignorance, u won't say Iwo is not a ist class king. And the fact u av not heard abt ugbo kingdom does not change d value of agege bread in d market nor does it reduce d class of the king cus wateva u think u know is actually inconsequential in the scheme of things. Good night

LorDBolton:


Na wa... how many 'kingdoms' dey this southern nigeria sef??!

Anywhere dia is a ist class king, he presides over a kingdom . its simple English biko. Abi na me say make ur area no get king?

FOLYKAZE:


Aketi deputy will garner that from Ese Odo and Ilaje.

Oke is Ikale and his people will support him. Jimoh who hailed from Osooro is Ikale too and got the back of his people. Therefore, the vote is divided right in Oke domain. Odigbo will surely go for Aketi. This is how it was in the last guber race. Irele will be divided among the participants but I see the buck going to Aketi there

Bros oke is not ikale nitori olorun. Oke is a full blooded ilaje man from ugbo kingdom.

Can u plz stop giving analysis that u know nothing abt biko. How will aketi win in d south cus of a deputy he picked from dia wen oke who is a son of d soil is going for no 1 post. And plz don't argue with me abt if oke is ilaje

FOLYKAZE:


Jimoh cannot do anything here. He is not respected at his Igbotako where he hailed from. And mind you, Oke and Jimoh are both Ikale. Even while Oke can get some pocket of vote from Ese odo and Ilaje, people there will vote for there son who happen to be Aketi Deputy. They wont vote for Oke who was OSOPADEC chairman and did nothing. So the south senetorial vote is divided and Jimoh cannot have 20% from there. I give Aketi 50% in the south senetorial district which will come from Odigbo and Irele. The two LGA are not going to vote for Jimoh. I can assure you PDP is dead here. To nail it all, Oke name is missing in the participant list when it was updated last.


Central district has the chunk. They got the back of Eyitayo and they will never support Jimoh. He can spend all he have but that wont change the fact that he will lost. Central is going for Aketi.


The North is in the pulse of Aketi. On Nov 26, I see Jimoh coming third. Agunloye is coming second and Aketi is having the day

Bros plz before I counter u I need to ask if u are from ondo state and specifically ondo south. I really doubt it cus if u are u won't say oke did nothing as osopadec chairman. Oke is still loved till tomorrow in ilaje land cus of wat he and agagu used osopadec to achieve dia. It was during his tenure as chairman that roads and electricity got to d riverine area for the ist time ever.

Mimiko got dia and abandoned d project. For 8 yrs now d people Neva get light. They will over vote for oke and stand with dia vote till death. I know this cus I'm from this place sir.

Jimoh can never win a free and fair election in ondo state and mind u , this same oke u claim won't get any vote came a close second to mimiko in d last election clearing all d south senatorial votes simply cus of his record as osopadec chairman. Aketi came a distant third and with this inec decision, PDP is a gooner and na only federal might go prevent oke from being d next gov

I can only conclude from ur write up that u are not from ondo state at all

Wike claims that as Chief security officer of the state, he had to run to project a judge from arrest in d middle of d night but he couldn't protect other citizens from being killed in dia own homes due to political differences.

Hmm I just pity the little ones left behind. Yoruba talk say I will be like your dead father can never replace your dead father

If d chibok girl kidnap saga is a scam like some peeps east of d Niger keep claiming, then goodluck Jonathan who was a sitting president when this "scam" was perpetrated and with the loads of machinery under his control including the propangandish tool of the then Marilyn oga infested DSS and the many Intel at his disposal and yet could not come out to denounce this kidnap as a scam, I think I am safe to conclude that gej was the most useless president Nigeria ever had. No wonder dey called him d ineffectual baffon

jmoore:


Dude, stop spewing 'hate' every time when one airs an opinion different from yours. The user is quoted was an APC supporter, go and check his past posts in the year 2015

A little sense won't hurt you.

You need the sense more than I do #rubbish

Keneking:
Scam

So the swiss qovt and d international red cross is also involved in d scam abi. U guys should not let hatred and election loss drive una crazy.

The school boys murdered in dia hostel in adamawa by boko haram na also scam abi. If ur sister or daughter was one of them, u wont be typing rubbish on nairaland. Those whose kids were either killed or kidnapped know Wia it pains and ur opinion with ur free 10 MB don't count.

Even your ineffectual Baffon whose election lose is still paining u has not come out to say chibok is a scam and as a President he had access to Intel that u can never dream of having. #rubbish

realunclej:
That was Oke first political assignment in Ondo State and that was many years back. It was after he finished his tenure he became the national adviser of PDP then. He can't go back to a position he once held. But given it to Ajasin is what I don't understand because he is not from oil producing area.

Wrong sir, that was oke's second assignment and not his ist. He was ist osopadec chairman under agagu. It was When he finished his tenure as osopadec chairman he went on to represent ondo state on d nddc board. Then with d coming of mimiko and labour party, he became pdp national lawyer and legal adviser. He resigned from that post to contest against mimiko later

Nosky247:
I have some euro in my dom account and I have its ATM card. Hope I can easily withdraw with it in Germany?

Yes if ur card is activated to work outside naija cus some naija banks like diamond need special activation process which u av to do at dia branch office before u can use it abroad. And don't forget each withdrawal comes with a fee

biglord:
you can get your train tickets online using your gtbank naira master card. thats how I got mine. Also I did not do city registration before unblocking o. maybe my case is different. or maybe the db in Ulm is different. I just presented my passport and ID and stated an address to send my atm and internet banking pin to

U stated an address to send ur cards and letters to. That is d keyword dia, an address and that was bcus u had someone who lodged u and allowed u use his address before u could get ur place. Wat den happens in a situation u don't av someone who lodged u and allowed u use his place, will d address of ur uni b accepted as a residential address? Will d address of d hotel u lodged be accepted?

You need a physical address to unblock ur acct and even after going to d bank to unblock with this address, it takes abt another day to av access to your money depending on d branch u visit.

promzyphyno:
