1..Dr. Alex Otti is an IGBO MAN from Isiala-ngwa area of Abia State. He has ALWAYS been identified to be from there.
But today, the same Ngwa people say Otti is a FOREIGNER IN ABIA by virtue of the area of Ngwa
2)
that he comes from.
They are of the opinion that he isnt an "original Ngwa man".
They say he is "Not Abia enough" to be the Gov of their state!!!
It is what has caused all the wahala in Abia State Guber.
He has won eventually but I can imagine that he will have problems.
3) 2. Not too long ago, in this 4th Republic,a Yoruba man who had stayed forever in ONITSHA went beyond this boundaries.
He wanted to contest COUNCILORSHIP POSITION in one of their WARDS in that town.
Ordinary Councilor o!!
They told him to clear out but he didn't understand.
4)
He was summarily liquidated.
3. In Enugu we saw a viral video of a Leader,an elderly man,insisting that a particular politician whose ancestry was traced to EBONYI STATE
can never be allowed to be their Governor in Enugu.
He said NEVER.
He was terribly agitated about it.
4)
They didn't allow that man.
4. In Anambra again, Bianca Onoh is an IGBO WOMAN. Her father was from neighbouring Enugu which used to be one state with them but she married no less a man than Emeka Ojukwu himself
A whole Ojukwu.
But Ojukwu was Anambra.
Bianca indicated that
5)
she wanted to contest the senatorial election in Anambra.
Anambra People told her to go to HER FATHERS LAND!!!!
That was it.
5. Ironically, Mrs Betty Akeredolu came to her own fathers land to ask for Senatorial ticket
Her father's land is IMO.
Imo people promptly told
6)
told her to go back to her HUSBAND'S LAND IN ONDO STATE to find the ticket.
6. Till this day they still have the OSU CASTE system in that Igbo land.
Christianity couldn't wash it away.
OSU people still suffer humiliations amongst fellow Igbo people.
They have limitations
7) to their rights up till this day.
They are discriminated against.
7. But these Abia, Anambra , Ebonyi, Enugu and Imo men are all over the place in Ondo, Oyo, Ogun, Ekiti, Osun and Lagos states telling you stories of 'One Nigeria" and preaching against"Tribalism " that
8)
it is fair and okay for them to become anything of politics in your land as they LIVE & OWN HOUSES IN YOUR COMMUNITIES.
The want to be able to contest elections as GOV in Lagos & infact they want to achieve it by IGBO BLOC VOTES as they have moved half of their population
9)
into Lagos.
They want to be SENATORS in Lagos.
They want to be DEPUTY-GOVERNOR in Ogun.
They actually feel they deserve to be consulted in Ekiti before you chose your leaders.
HOW A PEOPLE DEMAND FROM YOU WHAT THEY CAN'T GIVE YOU IS WHAT I WANT TO UNDERSTAND.
10)
They OPENLY tell you that LAGOS IS NO MAN'S LAND.
They don't do these things in the NORTH because they are very much aware that the NORTHERNERS KNOW THEM.
They do it to the Yoruba people because they are also very aware that the Yorubas don't travel to the EAST and
11)
therefore don't know the IGBO characters.
Yorubas are a very easy-going & easily contented, we hardly have had reasons to be going up & down to the spaces of other people.
But you come to us when we DIDN'T INVITE YOU & then begin to harrass us with games of competition
12)
which is something that isn't part of our own culture.
We don't go about with crazy aggression trying to outdo or get better than our neighbours.
Our ancestors taught us to be okay and satisfied with what we have.
We only look to be the better of ourselves, to become
13)
better person than we were yesterday.
Money was & still is not a yardstick of measuring the quality of men in Yoruba land - YOUR OMOLÚÀBÍ CONTENT IS.
NO CLANDESTINE MEETING BETWEEN CJN & PRESIDENT-ELECT
Our attention has been drawn to the grossly fake, misleading & malicious story about the Chief Justice of Nigeria Olukayode Ariwoola disguising to meet President-elect @officialABAT in London.
2)
The story was a pure concoction from the hallucinating minds of hatchet men bent on creating doubts and public distrust about the legitimacy of our recent election, which was won by Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
We refute emphatically that there has been no clandestine meeting
3)
between the President-elect and the respected Chief Justice of our country, any where. It’s pure fabricated news, groundless in fact and authenticity.
To show that the story was a mere salacious fiction, meant to draw traffic to the discredited purveyor, it claimed the
With the conclusion of the Governorship and State Houses of Assembly elections,I congratulate all the elected governors & assembly members for earning the mandate
2)
of the people.
The March 18 governorship election held across 28 states and the state legislative poll across the 36 states of the federation have brought the 2023 election circle to a fitting close.
I must praise President Muhammadu Buhari,the Independent National Electoral
3) Commission, security agencies, Observer Groups, Civil Society Organisations, development partners and the electorate for the success of the elections. The election is pivotal to the growth and sustenance of democracy and democratic governance at the state level.

Nigeria: At the Cusp of Renewed Hope
A fair, credible election has been held & has been won. The honor of that victory and the steep responsibility it entails has fallen on me. I say this not to gloat or boast because
2)
there is no room for such behavior. I merely state the facts as they are.
I realize many good & well-meaning Nigerians voted for other candidates. They are naturally disappointed that their favored candidate did not win. Other candidates have voiced their dissatisfaction,
3) stating they will go to court to contest the election. This is inherent to the democratic process. We defend their right to seek legal recourse.
While they exercise the legal rights afforded them in our democracy, I have set my course & mind on the leadership of this nation.
#WetinLagosDeyDoWithIGR #Thread 1)
You have heard of the several billions that Lagos State generates, what you really don't know is how it is spent and the different types of taxes that comes into the coffers of the state.
In this feature video, Ayodele Subair,
2)
the execute chairman of the Lagos State Internal Revenue Service walks you through how the taxes helps to develop the state.
Under the administration of Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu, the executive arm has expansively improved Lagos and taxes are making it happen.

Development are non-stop, in transport; air, rail, road and water systems are being worked on concurrently to make Lagos transportation seamless and in line with 21st century system.
In health, the journey continues to make sure Lagosians are safe, hale and hearty -
2) State Houses of Assembly Elections earlier scheduled to hold on Saturday,11th March, 2023 but now moved to 18th March, 2023.
Candidates, who registered early and indicated their willingness to take the Mock-UTME, would be notified as to when to print their

The Mock-UTME is an optional examination introduced by the Board to provide opportunity for candidates to have hands-on experience with the system as well as afford the Board an opportunity
PRESIDENT BUHARI NEVER TOLD AG AND CBN GOV TO DEFY SUPREME COURT ORDER
The Presidency wishes to react to some public concerns that President Muhammadu Buhari did not react to the Supreme Court judgement on the issue of the N500 and N1,000
2) old currency notes, and states here plainly and clearly that at no time did he instruct the Attorney General and the CBN Governor to disobey any court orders involving the government and other parties.
Since the President was sworn into office in 2015, he has never directed
3) anybody to defy court orders, in the strong belief that we can't practise democracy without the rule of law and the commitment of his administration to this principle has not changed.
Following the ongoing intense debate about the compliance concerning the legality of the old
