onatisi:
he had the opportunity and chance to make APC lose in 2023, why didn't he do it then? all these politicians just dey play with the intelligence of Nigerians, i am sure this Kwankwanso is nursing the idea of contesting the presidency again in 2027, he won't step down for anybody. obi too won't step down, Atiku too will contest, all for just one post



He is a nose maker. Outside Kano he wields no influence. And who told him is north that will determine who becomes president. buhari with his 12 million votes did not win until he formed coalition with Tinubu.

Ok

Anyone with an ounce of common sense already know that the whole exercise was to make sure that Tinubu will.lose the election.
The sad part is that pandora pathological liar Obi and Athie fkwu supported this whole charade even though it plunged the country into a complete state of chaos.
The same fools that supported that supported that chaos will now come online and claim that the govt doesn't care about the masses. The question is did they care when people actually died simply because this policy.

And has Tinubu done better than buhari and Emefiele?

Politics / Nigeria@64: We Are In Bondage; The Struggle For A Change Must Continue—human Rig by onochurch(f): 11:32pm On Oct 02
Nigeria@64: We are in bondage; the struggle for a change must continue—Human rights activist demonstrates captivity.

By Onome Naomi 

Demonstrating the situation of Nigeria, Human Rights Activist Comrade Prince Saviour Iche says Nigeria @64 is in bondage as he wraps himself up with the Nigerian flag tightened to his frame in show of the current reality of what a democratic system in Nigeria entails. 

Iche says it is seemingly sad to note that Nigeria, the largest continent in Africa, rich in all manner of resources, operates a democratic government where nobody can challenge the excesses of the government without being apprehended.

Comrade Prince Saviour Iche says,

"A country that takes instructions from the western world and cannot make decisions on her own, a country that takes orders from the IMF for an increase or decline in currency value, a country that depends mainly on oil to generate GDP while foreign bodies explore our natural resources to develop their countries, a country that forbids to conduct a free and fair election is a failed state."

"Nigeria of today depends more on importation for sustenance. More also, Nigeria has the highest ranking in Africa of student dropouts, meanwhile employment is on the increase and minimum wages for workers, as agreed, have not been put into effect. Nigeria is in a coma; it is not time to truly celebrate independence."

"President Tinubu should know that the youths who are the leaders of tomorrow have been stagnated by the retrogressive factors affecting the nation."

"There is no credible election; they merely do selection to office; it is noted that a leading political party must not lose an election to an opposition party. Moreso, Nigeria has become a mockery before other nations; the buhari and Tinubu administration appointed incompetent ministers by choice, not by merit or area of specialization."

"Tinubu's speech on October 1st was mere noise with no merit or hope for Nigerians; Nigerians are suicidal and depressed due to hardship, while our president, ministers, and leaders in government bask in wealth. Nigeria is not a democratically independent state; the struggle for a change must continue."


Comrade Prince Saviour Iche
Convener, Voice of the Voiceless Media

If you like cry and let your tears full up the Atlantic Ocean, Peter obi the fraud will never smell aso rock!

And as long as he contests for election, he will always give Tinubu a free ride to victory because he is the one that help destroy PDP’s votes.
And his ego will never ever let him step down, he will beat chest again and lose again without strategy but only irrational emotions

U make me laf so hard. Are u still in Nigeria?

I was reading ur comment because it was long probably to find something interesting but at the end I was disappointed.

U call Peter Obi in that is more reason why I have to ask u this few questions?

When PDP was in power did you appreciate them or their efforts? Please answer with sincerity


Is Peter Obi the INEC chairman or chief jugde?

Is Rivers state APC state?

When PDP were in power they set electoral standard by introducing electronic vote so that we can be having free and fare election.

But when APC came onboard they bastardized system instead of them to strengthen it and u don't care to hold them responsible.

Do u hate Peter Obi like that? I believe people like u can go to extra mile to vow that your relative will not be successful in life because he or she chooses his or her own part.


Assuming Peter Obi is ur father , brother or related to u in one way or the other or has what it takes to transform this country will u still choose to remain in hell in ur country just because u hate Peter Obi so much?

What u conceived in ur heart represent u. I believe u have a dangerous heart. Change your mindset. Please

See your infantile posturing,

"At least ippobs should stop gaslighting Yorubas by protesting..... Obi Will never be President..."

Your post speaks volumes and the mental capacity you have. Very childish indeed!

The protests is about hunger in the Land which your relations and loved ones are included.

Therefore, it's foolhardy to give it ethnic coloration.

With your types, Nigeria is doomed and irredeemable.

Krismas:
grin

1. Skip
2. You failed to answer my question. In this particular case the Vice President is not dead. Why are u assuming he was?
Zoning and single presidential term of 6yrs were conclusions reached at the Abacha constitutional review conference. And are constitutional reforms waiting to be signed into law. So Zoning is actually deeper than just political convenience.
3. Muritala Mohammed and Abacha were not Presidents. They were head of states.
I asked for president that have died in office b4 Yar’adua.
4. Skip.
5. I was talking about the baby of a couple already certified by DNA. Otherwise what is the proof a man is sleeping with his wife?
To be specific. If you claim GEJ signed no agreement with northern PDP elders not to stand for 2015, ok. No probs. But I cannot unhear what I heard. GEJ said he will not stand. Just like buhari who said he will not seek re-election. Just like Ayu, who said he will relinquish office as soon as a northerner emerged as party flag bearer These where things I heard myself.
6. Not only lawmakers. Other elected politicians cross carpeting are also implicated. Because it is party people vote for. Donald Trump was never elected into any political position as democrat. A card carrying member of a party, is just a little higher than an electorate. I want you to give me an example of an elected politician cross carpeting in America.
7. It’s apparent u misunderstood the G5. If Wike did not want zoning, what was his quarrel with the presidential flagbearer and Iyocha Ayu? Wike wanted it to be the whole south and not just south east.
Throwing it open was cause of powerful forces in the party who opposed it. The party leadership had to do it open. Which is wise. buhari seem to have had many rumored candidates in the race. One of which was Emeifele the ex-CBN chair. But I what now befell the likes of Lawan? Yahya bello? They lost in flying colors. Where these people truly protégés of the President, you think they would lose? If you think Wike is aggrieved cos he didn’t get VP slot, then you do not understand the controversy in the party very much.
1. This one you are skipping like a girl with rope. Don't go and fall o grin grin
2. I thought you said you know politics. Is death the only reason the VP can vacate office? If zoning was a law, in such a situation as Jonathan's in 2010, there will be 2 availabale options: either resign on the spot and let the SP take over or, finish the term and stand down at the next election for contestant from the preferred zone like OBJ did in 1976 and Abdulsalam did in 1999. The problem with zoning as I already told you is that it is more of a political weapon than a democratic ideal. By virtue of zoning, the second term option is academic as the incumbent is almost already assured of votes from the waiting region who will not run the risk of having a new President who will also want his own 8years. Thus zoning will promote what it is promoting now. Nepotism and more corruption since it signals "turn by turn" politics which will in turn birth "chop I chop". There is no developed democracy anywhere in the world that practices zoning. Zoning is a sign of mistrust among the groups making up Nigeria. It is simpy not good and politicians only introduce it to get an advantage over each other.
3. I thought you knew Nigerian political history well enough. Abacha transmuted already to a military President and was already on his way to transmuting to civilian. Murtala used to also refer to himself as President.
5. GEJ never said so. It was Makarfi and later Tukur who said so in Kano that GEJ had agreed to do only one term. The man was present there but he never uttered a Yes or No.
6. You'll be surprised! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_United_States_senators_who_switched_parties
If you do not see anything wrong with Donald Trump switching parties when he was out of office, was Atiku in office in 2014 and 2018?
7. Wike did not want zoning cause he knew the automatic implication would be that it will be microzoned to the SE. 1999 is a very good example in PDP. The Presidential ticket was microzoned to SW. So there's precedent for that. SW and SS have produced Presidents in PDP so it was obvious that the SE would have been the natural region to benefit from zoning in PDP. You have not explained why Ortom's zoining committee threw the ticket open and today he is part of G5 fighting for "justice, equity and fairness" in Wike's voice. Meanwhile the same Ortom's tribe Tiv have been producing govs in Benue since the creation of the state and he is yet to stand for such principles in his state. There are no powerful forces anywhere save for the forces of selfishness and arrogance on the part of Wike. It was an open secret within PDP that Atiku said he will withdraw from the race if the ticket was zoned to SE. Why didn't Wike take that opportunity and agree for the ticket to go to SE? That's actually the fairest move for even APC. Wike overrated his importance and that's why he has become petulant and irritable since then. You think in his mind he's truly happy to be playing spoiler? Which big politician wants to waste his time being a spoiler when he can increase his network and test his popularity by running for any office of his choice? Wike always considered himself the biggest politician from the South in PDP. That he could be overlooked for an Okowa is something to hard for him to stomach

Kukutenla:


1. Ok... So when did he die
2. You are mixing things up. Zoning does not exist in our laws. Zoning is a political arrangement whose foundation is the mutual distrust between the zones that make up Nigeria and the supremacy battle that's embedded in every presidential contest in Nigeria. So, zoning is not an ideal. Zoning is an appreciation of our fault lines. Who should have taken office? Well, the constitution says if the President and the Vice President cease to exist, power automatically falls to the Senate President who happened to be a northerner and an election held within 6months. There you have it. Let's hear what you have to say now. The point you keep missing is that zoning is an arrangement of convenience just as you yourself are pointing out. It is not sacred or cast in stone neither is it a legal requirement
3. Eerm there's Murtala Muhammad and Abacha.
4. You seem to be conspiracy theorist. But you still fumbled at this attempt. There is no provision for body double in the constitution AND a body double cannot access the office of the president. If you were paying attention in 2017 you would have gotten that.
5. What makes you so certain that the baby is from the man's seed. You seem to be so naive in a lot of matters. You need hard evidence called DNA to get proof when paternity is contested. You can't use "I slept with my wife" as proof man!!
6. A lot more than you can imagine. Switching parties is not illegal in our constitution. Only lawmakers are forbidden from doing so since their seats are representative of their party caucus in their Houses. Even Trump was once a Democrat. There is nothing wrong with switching parties especially when you are not in office
7. APC did not zone. The problem with folks like you is that you mix things up and only take what suits your bias. The APC Governors Forum ceded the party ticket to the South. But the party chair told them that the party will not zone its ticket. The party chair later called the governors and told them the President has a preferred candidate in the person of Ahmad Lawan. Do you remember all these? The govs led by Yahaya Bello and El-Rufai stormed out of the meeting. That's what broke the camel's back and buhari then released a statement that ALL aspirants are to contest with NO ONE being barred. Do you remember this as well?
Was Ortom not the chairman of PDP zoning Committee? What was the outcome of their work? They resolved that the party ticket be thrown open. That is Ortom o. A member of G5. Are you aware that before him, Ugwuanyi was head of a committtee on Presidential Primary. The question of zoning was put before him and he also rebuffed it. Before that, are you aware that what made Umahi leave PDP was because he raised the matter in PDP Gov's forum that PDP presidential ticket should be ceded to South East. You know who rebuffed him? Wike. So can you tell me when Wike came out in support of zoning before the primaries? The point now is, if Wike had been offered Vice, would he have gone ahead to reject it on the grounds of zoning not being adhered to?

Minimum wage that is less valuable than what was earned under Obasanjo Ebele n buhari.

Bro no de talk about light if God no wan punish you. Bola Ahmed Tinubu as achieved nothing with electricity except making Nigerians pay more for 2ven more darkness.

If student loan translate to an achievement against a completely free education if all federal universities across the country I leave you to your conscience along with you born n unborn generation to decide.

Say person support Tinubu does not translate to being senseless. Make una no de lose guard. Bola Ahmed Tinubu was voted to ease the misery pain n suffering Nigerians are witnessing with poor governance, he as accomplished nothing beta than any of those before him n we must come together state this fact as it is n accept he is a failure if he can not change the plight of Nigerians simple as A B C.

Politics / Re: Edo Election: Abure-Led Labour Party Congratulates INEC, APC by commoditiesnig: 11:15am On Sep 27
Well said emkz!
emkz:
I have noticed that both Labour Party and PDP are in disarray.

In PDP, one man holds the cards and the party is too weak to discipline him. The man is just a minister. As it appears, that minister is more powerful than some governors. The former presidential candidate seems uninterested in the party affairs. Understandably so. He hasn't shown he has the capacity to tame the minister.

In LP, there is one group sympathetic to Abure, and there is the other group. The Arabambi group seems to be siding with the Abure group as it had become obvious that they'd lose control of their party to those they accommodated who decided to be marauders.

Yet, they talk of a merger to wrestle power from the APC.

In 2011, talks between ACN and CPC collapsed and they went into the election. Between 2013 and 2014, they were able to reach a consensus with Tinubu and Amaechi backing buhari. The coalition wrestled power from PDP and PDP is yet to get back.

If there are crises in PDP and LP, how on earth do they want to wrestle a united APC? We saw how a fractured PDP in Edo fell to a united APC. Obaseki had managed to grab the party from the owners and they worked to help him lose. Those who try to cause problems in APC are eased out. Tinubu spent a substantial part of his campaign settling quarrels. I do think President Tinubu needs to bring Magnus Abe close. He was one of his earliest supporters.

PDP and LP need to wake up. They need to unite in-house before talks of a coalition. The litmus test of a leader is how he manages party affairs. So far, one is said to be mostly in Dubai and a visitor to the party when he needs it for his ambition, while the other one is sewing twitter threads, condemning things he barely understands.

Unfortunately for them, I don't see them getting their affairs in order before 2026.

PDP and LP need to wake up. They need to unite in-house before talks of a coalition. The litmus test of a leader is how he manages party affairs. So far, one is said to be mostly in Dubai and a visitor to the party when he needs it for his ambition, while the other one is sewing twitter threads, condemning things he barely understands.

Unfortunately for them, I don't see them getting their affairs in order before 2026.


God bless you for this. This is just the simple truth. The division within PDP and also that of LP will still give the APC a big advantage in the 2027 general election, but most of the people supporting them online will not talk about this. And it will be a big advantage if there is Unity among themselves and also think of a merger with some other small party so that they can wrestle power from the current government comes 2027. Without Unity within and among the opposition parties, I don't see them winning in the next general election.

I have noticed that both Labour Party and PDP are in disarray.

In PDP, one man holds the cards and the party is too weak to discipline him. The man is just a minister. As it appears, that minister is more powerful than some governors. The former presidential candidate seems uninterested in the party affairs. Understandably so. He hasn't shown he has the capacity to tame the minister.

In LP, there is one group sympathetic to Abure, and there is the other group. The Arabambi group seems to be siding with the Abure group as it had become obvious that they'd lose control of their party to those they accommodated who decided to be marauders.

Yet, they talk of a merger to wrestle power from the APC.

In 2011, talks between ACN and CPC collapsed and they went into the election. Between 2013 and 2014, they were able to reach a consensus with Tinubu and Amaechi backing buhari. The coalition wrestled power from PDP and PDP is yet to get back.

If there are crises in PDP and LP, how on earth do they want to wrestle a united APC? We saw how a fractured PDP in Edo fell to a united APC. Obaseki had managed to grab the party from the owners and they worked to help him lose. Those who try to cause problems in APC are eased out.

All in all, we should have removed the subsidy on power, make everyone pay for power at market price, and there would be massive improvement in power supply.


We get bad power because we don't pay for power in full. Even now

1. Most Nigerians do not pay the market price for power

2. 40% of Nigerians , if not more, don't pay for power at all.

Run your business that way, and you would lose money well well

The above is why we do not have constant power supply. And why we have shitty power. And why we have blackouts.

Plus, with debt service rising again, government can't afford subsides for power.

But most of you don't want to hear the truth....so we will blame corruption, the Hausas, tinubu, gej, buhari, the army, etc etc.

Tomorrow we will cheer for the guy who chases nepa people from disconetctin him....a big part of the problem.

This idiot has come again with his usual capitalism theory which is utopian to say the least but not practical.
For Nigeria to achieve the kind of extreme capitalism you always preach, the minimum wage in Nigeria will have to be 500k and that's very unrealistic hence your theory only exist in your maggot infested brain and not practical. A simple Google of the countries you like to compare Nigeria with will tell you the minimum wage there.
Nigeria is a poor country and even at that there's a reason government exists in a society which is to help the poor and weak and not to put them into their death hole. There's nothing wrong with subsidy because every country in the world subsidizes for her citizens.

You are back again with your propaganda I still remember how you were all over this forum especially on threads that has to do with fuel subsidy removal, how you kept pushing for the removal of fuel subsidy..... You are not satisfied, you now want subsidy to be removed on electricity to kill more Nigerians.... You will never demand accountability from the government or champion it's course as it is glaring you derive joy in the crisis that has engulfed Nigeria's economy already and want it's total destruction by pushing for the removal of all energy subsidies.... Callous!

what is this one saying?

how can a govt "remove fuel subsidy" "remove the subsidy on forex" and now remove the subsidy in electricity in less than 18 months?

Are you really listening to yourself ?
How will the masses cope ?

How about a staggered approach towards the removal ? such that at the tail end of the presidency, all subsidies are gone

instead of doing it all at the same time

For a guy in his 20s, your capitalism mindset is brutal. But I don't blame you because you don't know what it feels like to be a hustling Nigerian. You're shielded from life's harsh realities by the affectionate interventions of your parents.

But life will happen to you one day and you'll really understand what today's existence brings.
