Seems Kalu is a very popular name in Abia State.

Rooting for loosers!
AbdulAziz Yari and Idris Wasse❌
Rt. Hon. Idris Wasse will definitely step down/back out but I don't trust that potbelly Sen. Yari.
He stood firmly against the reelection of Gov. Bello Matawalle which party people despised!

you shaaa like to troll nairalanders here. Idris wase will win the house of Reps speaker seat 💺. Keep on arguing with me

Abubauchi:
u are decieving urself ooooo

I’m not at all. Avoid me here ok. Idris wase will win the 10th House of Reps speakership position

ChukwuObe:


How many opposition will remain by the time most G5 governors like Wike and Makinde ask the member from their state to follow and vote for anyone that APC favours. Hahahaha.

😂 Makinde no get Reps now, Na APC won all the Senate and Reps in oyo state now. APC Reps and Pdp Reps will cast their votes for idris wase. It will shock you on that.

IgboSomalia:


Tinubu is not Buhari. You will see it and cry rigging as you've always done.

Please someone answer this question

If a South East person is made Senate president, will it reduce poverty,crime rate in South East.. NO

If a South West person is made Senate president,will it reduce harvesters in that region? NO

If a Northern person is made Senate
Will it stop bandits from destroying that region? NO

There is no single gain from Senate president been given to your tribes men.
Your region will still be looking like Sudan
So why are people fighting for the post?

Great post! South Easterners have been Senate President and Speaker of House so many times and I didn't see any gain that it brought to South East.

LivingSage:
It's ONLY painful North Central is not considered here.

this isn't a final decision the final decision ll be on nass floor when they vote in June

LordKushmann:


Please enlighten me dear one.. Wherever in history of all the world's democracies has it been seen this travesty observable in Nigeria? I only require just one example and you have all the way from Greece /Rome to modern times to choose from. Just one example.
If you like you can choose the murder of Julius Ceaser so you enlighten me how this is POLITICS as you said.

Go and ask Obi that question

casualobserver:


North central has been pencillled for SGF. Let’s not forget they also occupy party chairmanship.

IgboSomalia:


Tinubu is not Buhari. You will see it and cry rigging as you've always done.

u guys don't understand nass politics u think only APC guys ll elect nass leaders... PDP LP NNPP others ll have to vote in June whoever campaign well wins not who tinubu or APC chooses

They have the party chairman that's father to all of them.

sixtuso:
That is how it is in America, when the Texas refuses to vote for a president of Washington candidate there will be nothing for them if he eventually wins the election. Like development, infrastructure is not for them because they Texas didn't vote for him the Washington candidate. That is what Nigeria practice and that is the Democracy we want to emulate.

That is not true. Texas has benefitted disproportionately from recent economic policies by the Biden administration. Even the politicians in Texas acknowledge this fact despite disagreeing on other issues. Please stop lying.

This is a national assembly, legislative arm of Govt that is supposed to be independent, the leaders are being hand picked by another arm of govt.


Who will then checkmate the executive

IgboSomalia:


Look at this one that his mother hides under the ground on Mondays like a cocoyam. Ipob and UGM has finished the destiny of your family.
Ipob UGM will will kidnap you and that short baboon you call your father.
Your mother will sell her last wrapper to pay your ransom and they will still kill you.
Useless slave. Your children will still hawk before they can see something to eat.

If at this your age, you still couldn't figure out why, then we should be sorry for you.
It creates sense of belonging.

Jagaban the political Magician.

The Defense house has suddenly become a mecca for politicians. Power has truly changed hands.

How they will roast Emefiele is what I am still waiting for

Dude is running away before Buhari leaves office. He's not hanging around to find out what they have store for him.

DeadCountry:
Very good news. All those foolish useful idiot Igbos that led ndi'Igbo into the useless nonsense called election to legitimize nigeria should be served it hot. Igbos must not be given any meaningful post, in fact, Tinubu should be more ruthless with impunity than Buhari in his power sharing to teach a lesson the foolish Igbos that went to vote when we warned them against voting in nigeria. Ndi ara everywhere.

You speak like an evil person. Remember, they are humans and have equal rights just as you

ednut1:
Na democracy be this The senate and HOR are supposed to check the excesses of the president/ executive.

And they're supposed to work together, in unison in order to move the country forward. Or, do you want another Saraki's era? A wasted solid 4 years where budget was not passed until July?

IgboSomalia:


Declared President by Ipob or UGM who are his supporters.

Did Obi get more votes than Atiku or what nonsense is this one saying.

Of course You won't admit he got more vote than the two you mentioned, the rigged, stole and manipulated some of the PUs and States he won

Nigerian mentality of politics

To be fair, it's the east that should not get anything in the arrangement. The region got nothing for Tinubu APC

LivingSage:

This is what has caused us deeper setback. You people doesn't know that there is a difference between politics and governance. Always thinking every aspect of governance must be politicized is what has dripped the system. You guys need to heal ourselves of this backward thinking that those that vote for you must only be those that will benefit from the system, governance goes beyond that. Positions should not be reward for politicking but on competence and character.
Besides, how would there be check and balance, when it's an arm government that is choosing leaders for another arm of government? And we want our democracy to grow? It would never grow when one arm is an appendage of other. President would be the one to choose the head of judiciary and still cunningly choose the heads of legislative arm.
