How @officialABAT Bola Ahmed Tinubu's One Day Governor Tradition "disenfranchised" the Igbo young students in Lagos.
It is a going to be a long thread. Hope I won't be cancelled today. #IYD2022
Alexander Ezenagu lived in a one room apartment with his parents & 8 siblings. Due to financial problem, 4 of his siblings dropped from school. Alex kept himself in school by hawking petty items, wash car and clothes, carry luggage & run errands to earn money #IYD2022
At SS3, Alex was pronounced the best student in his school&was selected to represent the school at the regional qualifiers of 2004 Spelling Bee Competition organised by the New Era Foundation, a legacy of the then former First Lady of Lagos State, Senator Oluremi Tinubu #IYD2022
Good morning Your Excellency and once again congratulations on your election as APC Presidential Candidate.
However, I must confess to you sir that this is going to be toughest campaign you will ever face and here are my reasons.
I'm a member of APC. A loyal party member but I'm someone who is a realist and who has vowed to speak truth to the power regardless of my party affiliations.
You will recall in 2015 sir that our party campaigned on 3 major points namely;
1. Insecurity 2. Economy 3. Corruption
INSECURITY:
At the inception of our administration, we were able to push the insurgents to the far North East in Sambisa Forest. We were able to get necessary military infrastructures and equipments for our military and other security agencies.
There are two types of consensus. Let me explain this in a short thread with examples.
The first one is when a Governor endorse an aspirant. Where we have more than one aspirant, the Governor can consult and appeal to them to step down for his preferred aspirant.
If the Governor was able to convince them and they agree to his terms, what you will see on the day of primary is just AFFIRMATION.
For instance Senator Sani and Dattijo in Kaduna.
The second scenario is when the Governor has a preferred aspirant and there other aspirants. These other aspirants refused to step down for the Governor's choice.
What then happen is that the Governor use all his access/party structures/state apparatus...
At the panel session this morning, we first identified some electoral hotspots in Ekiti using historical background of violence in such areas and other factors. Some of these hotspots include:
Ikole LGA with the following specific areas Ipao, Igede, Iyemero Oke Ako cos of the porous border with Kogi and Kwara State
Other hotspots include Ekiti East specifically Omuo, Gbonyin with special focus on Aisegba Ekiti. Irepodun/Ifelodun with special focus on Iworoko, Oye LGA.
Some of the triggered factors include:
Use of security operatives in collaboration with thugs to disrupt the process..
Ebonyi & Ekiti were created in 1996 by late Sanni Abbacha.
I stumbled on some data in the middle of the night while doing some reading & I'm not sorry to say this,we've been unfortunate with visionary set of leaders in Ekiti state.
