Did you ever asked the same question about Sen. David Mark? Or you just want to quench your taste of attacking APC?

What do you say about David Mark and others who have been elected into political offices from one level to the other since 1999?

Some US congressmen/senators have been wining re-election for more than 30 years.

EdCure:

What do you say about David Mark?

Brigadier General David Alechenu Bonaventure Mark (Rtd) is an old fool, sorry.

After excessively amassing wealth in the military era, he and his cohorts now transformed to become politicians

I pity his people for re-electing him.

When shall they vacate and allow the younger generation to occupy ?

I love this. Since this is not their father house title then another qualified person should try.

It's interesting how you couldn't say this when he was busy acting as GEJ's chief manipulator at the Senate, promoting impunity for PDP, and in the days leading to the election.

Congrats Emeka Idimogu, the Lagos governor in the making, a journey of thousand mile begins with a single footstep.

Elected and acting in his capacity as Senate President.

The storyline now is, why would someone return to the house for FIVE times ?

For David Mark his people could be voting for him, but for Kolawole Taiwo he is been imposed and no voting before now but doctored election result been read. (Adibo tabi a o dibo, o ti wole, that is no more)

...If Nigeria election is free and fair, we shall then know who the people love.

Good for them

Hmmm

You can if you have something to show for it.

Unfortunately, most of this so called representatives have nothing to show despite their many years in office, their constituency still remains an eye sore.

PDP won in 9 seats. That's good. It means we have a vibrant opposition in Lagos

Ok....Next!

I know Dayo Famakinwa personally!!
I don't believe Dayo Won!! Waoh!!

It's good for democracy.

Honestly Nigerians deserve only free and fair elections. That's why every reasonable people were surprised when PDP fought tooth and nail to stop PVCs and card readers.

PDP were concerned about the logistics. They feared the possibility of the card readers failing. And their concerns were brought to bare and INEC even had to still resort to manual accreditation in some places.
