Tinubu: Ghanaians Dragging Their President For Congratulating Tinubu





 

God Is Against Tinubu’s Victory — Primate Ayodele, Reveals What Will Happen


 God against Tinubu’s victory, prepare for hardship, his govt’ll fail – Primate Ayodele to Nigerians


The leader Of INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church, Primate Elijah Ayodele, on Friday reacted to the victory of Nigeria’s President-elect, Bola Tinubu at the just concluded presidential election.

Primate Ayodele revealed that God is against Tinubu’s victory, adding that the incoming government will be filled with sorrow, hardship, failure and economic disappointment.

In a statement by his media aide, Osho Oluwatosin, he made it known that the incoming government will not be any better than the outgoing one because the will of the people was stolen.

He explained that it is not part of God’s plans that Christians will not be part of leadership in Nigeria and that the APC wants to stir a confusion in the religious sector.

According to Ayodele: ‘’I am seeing a new government of sorrow, hardship, failure, economic disappointment, there will be more hardship because God never approved another APC government for Nigerians.

“Under this new government, Nigeria will not be regarded internationally, this government will not make it better than what we experienced in the outgoing government
.

“This is not the government God approved for us. God has not approved Nigeria to be an Islamic republic, he has not said Christians will not be part of the government but these people have berated God, they want to stir confusion in the religious sector but God has rejected them.’’

Wike: I Am Happy Makinde was One Of Those Who Actualised Southern Presidency



 Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers State has given kudos to Nigerians for supporting the power shift to the Southern region.


Wike who spoke on Friday in Ibadan, Oyo State capital said with the emergence of Asiwaju Bola Tinubu of the APC as the President-elect, the issue of the rotational presidency has been settled for good.

The Governor also lauded the Governor of the state, Seyi Makinde for being part of those that make the historic movement achievable.

Wike had joined his fellow G5 colleague to commission the Oyo State 5,000,000-litre Aviation Fuel Dispensing Depot at the Ibadan Airport in the Alakia area of the state.

According to him, “I am happy he (Makinde) is one of those that made history by making sure that power shift to the south.

“I have told people that those who fight for change, who fight for revolution may not be directed beneficiaries of that fight but today, history has it that all of us now are aware that when power finishes from the south, it will go to the north; when it finishes from the north, it will come to the south.

“So, it does not need to be written in the constitution at all before it is implemented. And I thank Nigerians for standing firm to see that this issue materializes.”

Wike, who is a Governor under the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) is the leader of the five aggrieved Governors of the party popularly known as the G5 or Integrity Group.

The group had refused to work for the party’s flagbearer, Atiku Abubakar because it insisted that the PDP national chairman, Iyorchia Ayu resigns for a candidate of southern extraction.

However, Ayu’s refusal to resign pushed the group to work against the party’s presidential candidate.

Meanwhile, speculations are that Wike and Makinde were instrumental to the victory of Tinubu both in Rivers and Oyo States.

Lagos NURTW ‘Asks Members To Submit PVCs’ Ahead Of Governorship Election



 The National Union of Road Transport Workers (NURTW) is compelling its members in Lagos State to turn in their permanent voter cards (PVC) for an unspecified cause.


As of this morning, a number of union members in a few areas of Lagos had turned in their PVCs to NURTW officials in Agege, according to a source.

The source, a member of the union who asked not to be named, said that all the NURTW branches in Lagos attended a state meeting on Thursday but the outcome of the meeting was not communicated until this morning.

They concluded this morning that all NURTW members should submit their PVCs to the branch secretary or the unit secretary,” he told FIJ.

“I’ve turned in mine. They arrived at 10 am this morning to collect it. But why are they robbing us of our PVCs?

“I have no idea when they will return it to us. They are denying us the opportunity to be with our PVCs on Election Day because they want to use it for something else
.”


When FIJ contacted the Lagos State council of the NURTW via its phone number on Google, a representative said he was not aware of the development.

“I don’t know anything about it. I don’t understand what you are saying,” said the unidentified official who answered the call.

Peter Obi Will Go Down As Nigeria's Most Dangerous & Divisive Politician - APC


 The All Progressives Congress campaign council has said the manner in which the Labour Party presidential candidate, Peter Obi, rode on the waves of religion and ethnicity in Saturday’s election shows that he will go down in history as the country’s “most dangerous and divisive politician.”


The claim was made by the Special Adviser on Media and Communication for the PCC, Dele Alake, at a press conference in Abuja to address the allegation of rigging and collusion with the electoral umpire.

The President-elect, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, was announced the winner of the keenly contested Saturday’s presidential election on Wednesday.

Tinubu had polled 8,794,726 votes to defeat the LP flag bearer and his closest rival, Atiku Abubakar of the Peoples Democratic Party, by 6,984,520 and 6,101,533 votes respectively.

But both Atiku and Obi have kicked against the results with each claiming that the election was fraught with violence and massive rigging.

Consequently, they have resorted to take their case to court for redress.

While mocking LP’s attempt to convince the court, Alake stated that he couldn’t imagine how a divisive politician like Obi could take advantage of Nigerian youths, who were earnestly in search of a hero.

He said, “For Obi, he would go down as Nigeria’s most dangerous and divisive politician. He elevated his well-known clannish mentality to a most unfortunate height by openly anchoring his campaign on religion and ethnicity. He presented himself as a poster boy for and a champion of our country’s fault lines.

“He took advantage of our youths whose expectations are fast paced, who are uninterested in excuses, and who were in search of a hero. He pumped up their sentiments and rode on their emotions while grandstanding as a saviour. It was a false pretence. Obi’s credentials are eternally stained as a former governor with no remarkable legacy.

“Not a few of our youths thought Peter Obi looked like the leader they wanted and many of them could not tolerate any form of scrutiny of their newfound hero. They chose wilfully to canonise him while insisting no one should ask questions. The combination of the disgruntled youths, the ethnic champions, and commercial clerics was the reason Obi thought he could win a presidential election in Nigeria. Such illogic is not strange to the Labour Party.

“If Labour Party could not fill up its quota for polling booth agents with a shortfall of over 40, 000, how did it intend to compete with political parties like APC and PDP? It would be interesting to see what evidence of rigging Labour Party will present before the court when the party could not appoint agents to monitor nearly a quarter of the venues of election,” he said.

While applauding Obi and Atiku’s decision to shift their battle to the judicial turf, Alake stated that it would be a miracle to see how they hoped to overturn the election results in court.

The former Lagos commissioner reiterated that by the time they were through with their journey, the APC train would have left the station in its bid to make the country better for all Nigerians.

“As we look forward to an encounter with both the PDP and LP at the court, we want to enjoin the two of them to pursue their grievances with decorum. They should encourage their members, supporters, and ethnic and religious consultants to follow the path of the rule of law.

“The claim that INEC did not use the BVAS is false. Those who voted across Nigeria, including Atiku and Obi, were accredited by BVAS. Save for bad losers that these two people have proved to be, we should rather be celebrating the tremendous improvement the use of BVAS has brought to our electoral process. The complaint over the electronic transmission of the result is not supported by law.

“Section 38 of the Electoral Act 2022 referred to by the PDP and LP has nothing to do with transmission of election results. Section 60, subsection 2 of the Act deals with transmission of results and it is at the discretion of INEC. The Act does not contain any mandatory provision regarding the transmission of results,” he stated.

LP reacts

Reacting, the Chief Spokesman for Obi-Datti Presidential Campaign Council, Yunusa Tanko, said the continuous attack on Obi by the ruling party was a desperate attempt to shield their fear.

Tanko stated that virtually all the supporters of the President-elect know that he didn’t win the election and would soon be found out in the court hence the deliberate to resort to intimidation.

He said, “When the APC said our principal is dangerous, he meant somebody they are already scared of. They have never got like him who gave them a serious run for their money. They have employed very criminally-minded individuals who helped them in allocating results to states. That has been exposed. And so they are scared of the fact that we are going to prove that position in court.

“The majority of them who have subverted the will of the people and at the same time, criminally denied the people from voting, end up going to jail. That has been their fear.

“All these antics and statements they are issuing is an attempt of a drowning man who has been found out based on the lies and propaganda they have been spreading. But we as democrats have proved that we are going to rescue Nigeria and put her on the right part while her oppressors would be put to shame.”

Countries With The Biggest Debts In The World



 

Just as individuals or companies may make purchases on credit or take out a loan to boost their finances, national governments often borrow money to further their country's growth or well-being. When this happens, the money borrowed becomes part of that country's national debt. Stated simply, national debt is the combined debt a country's government owes one or more lenders, such as other governments, various corporations, or even private individuals (such as with treasury bonds). But which countries have the world's highest national debt? The answer to that question merits a bit of explanation.

In terms of raw dollars, the country with the highest debt in the world is unquestionably the United States, whose national debt is more than twice that of any other country.[/color]
