'I will rather resign from politics than defect to APC' - Niger Governor

Governor Babangida Aliyu of Niger state says he would rather resign from active politics than defect from his party PDP to APC. Addressing some local government Chairmen that paid him a solidarity visit at the state Government house in Minna yesterday April 8th, the Governor referred to PDP members who have since defected as stomach politicians who are suffering from poverty, lack of morals and integrity
"Those who have defected from PDP to APC have clearly demonstrated that they are not principled and they are suffering from poverty, lack integrity and not morals and could easily be described as stomach politicians. For me, I will rather resign from politics than defect to APC or any other party. For principles of integrity, morality, we have chosen to remain in PDP. I heard people insinuating that I have dumped my party candidate for the APC candidate. It is a lie, I will never do such a thing" he said

    1. Wise enough cos even if you join APC,, you'll never be fully accepted. You don't belong where you don't belong,, takes a whole lot. Those who defected will realize this in the long run and it might be too late. ----C21

  26. Onyebuchi Ememanka writes this and I feel should share with you guys.....

    What is the principal interest of the Igbos in Lagos? What do we seek to achieve in our sojourn here? My take is simple. We seek a prosperous Lagos that is economically viable, peaceful....a mini Nigeria of sorts where all people are able to live and pursue their livelihood without let or hinderance.

    As a people that thrive on commerce, Igbos want a Lagos where there are government policies that promote the growth of commerce and business.

    A Lagos where government builds roads, bridges, hospitals and is generally alive to their duties.
    Education is free in Lagos and our children enjoy this.

    No Igbo child has been sent away from any public school in Lagos. Lagos state government pays WAEC and NECO fees for all students in Lagos....our children enjoy this too.

    What do we really want in Lagos? The truth is that we are strangers here. Lagos belongs to some people, just like Onitsha and Aba. Let's not carry on as if this place is a no man's land. It is not!

    All of a sudden, Jimi Agbaje has become an Igboman....we have adopted him as our son.....the same way we adopted President Jonathan in the last election against our strategic interest as a people...a decision that has left us in serious political confusion and our senators begging to be admitted into the APC.

    What is the difference between Jimi Agbaje and Akinwumi Ambode? Is any of them Igbo? What is our problem? I believe that we have a fair share here. We live in peace unlike our people in the North. I don't think there are more Igbos in Lagos than there are in Kano, yet we live peacefully here.

    Yorubas are highly politically sophisticated people and they understand that it is better for them to have a government in Lagos that belongs to the same party as the party at the centre. Igbos cannot love Lagos more than Yorubas. This is their land. If anything happens here now, we will all leave and return home. These people own here...
    this is their home and we must respect their feelings. Every person living in Lagos wants more federal presence in Lagos. We want a 4th mainland bridge, we want so many other things that the federal government can do.

    In the years past, Lagos hasn't enjoyed much federal intervention because of political party differences. Now they have that chance and we want to spoil it for them by being more catholic than the pope.

    Let everybody vote any candidate he wants but I reject any collective Igbo move to vote against the strategic interests of the people who own the land where we live and make our living. Lagos has been good to our people. We have succeeded here in business and the professions.

    Let's not disrespect the people of Lagos. I will not support any move that will create an impression that Igbos are against the interest of the owners of Lagos. Nobody has murdered our people here like what we see in the north. Lagos remains the only state in this country where Igbos hold top government positions.

    Even our neighbors and brothers, Rivers State have never given us that privilege despite our huge population and presence there" . . God bless Nigeria, God bless Lagos state eelvI c

    1. Shut up you are just an idi*** and a Tribalist. Must you cajole people to vote what is not thier choice why didn't they vote PDP since 1999 so that they can have same government in the centre and state. From the constitution nigeria belongs to all. So stop that trash. You Tribalist claiming to be an igbo . My name is Olatawura and am a member of the PDP and it's best to vote for Jimi cos we want change in lagos.the igbos have numbers but their vote can't count alone they still need the yoruba and other tribe and we shall vote out APC together. So stop the inciteful statement please.

  34. You are right sir. But they need to go because PDP has been a place for strange bed fellows. They are majority in the house but yet fight each other and fight the federal govt for irrelevant issues.

    Sir you where one of those that staged the 7 man match with Atiku from a rally when the president was there.

    I think you have to still leave too cos you are a strange bed fellow. and you couldn't win your state for GEJ

    This is exactly my Opinion. One party system is not good for us. If not for the checks and close monitoring of PDP by APC, we wouldn't have seen any development at all. PDP would have finished us. We need an Opposition to Check APC especially where its half is old PDP
