lol…Ambode the joker…your cabinet is full of fraudsters and murderers…we'll alleged..

The atmosphere of the Ebute Meta Chief Magistrate’s Court was tense on Tuesday when a former Commissioner for Rural Development and a governorship aspirant of the All Progressives Congress, Tola Kasali, 62, was arraigned for murder.

Arraigned with him were the Special Adviser to the Lagos State Governor on Politics and Legislative Matters, Musiliu Folami, 64, and Kasali’s Chief Security Officer, Tobun Abiodun, 38.

The court was filled with party loyalists, supporters and family members of the accused persons, as many others stood outside the court.

A very disappointing list. Where are all those that have been truly working and serving the party over the years without an ounce of acknowledgement, appreciation or proper compensation? A brutal case of dashed hopes yet again. Instead ugly nepotism, favouritism and unfairness reigns supreme. May God forgive you all. To those of you warriors that have been fighting a lost cause in the hope of someday being appointed to serve, I say face your business, go and look for proper work elsewhere. It does not matter how hard you lick the Godfather's boots, if he doesn't want you to serve you are wasting your time. You are obviously not one of his chosen few. Look unto God for your salvation. Hmm! Eko ti baje. Man playing God. Nemesis will surely catch up one day. Don't forget about the last days of Abacha....

Where is that horrible slave, Joe Igbokwe? Non of your brothers were considered for even SA! Igbos constitute more than 40% of Lagos population, yet these scumbags cannot consider them for a seat. Make una no worry, 2019 is coming. This time around we'll get a senate seat.

BLUNT said...

How many Yoruba people are in Abia state? Democracy has to do with numbers my friend. We constitute like 40% of Lagos population. We proved it by getting house of reps seats in the last election. Stop beefing Igbos. We mean no harm. We can only get better. We're coming for a senate seat by 2019. Let's begin with this, of all the bloggers in Lagos, you chose to bury yourself here! What does it tell you? Stop beefing the Igbo man. If I were you, I'd want to know what makes him thick.

This is real change. From about 1999, the successive governments of Lagos State had included at least one Igbo man as a cabinet member. This I guess is to feel the impulse of Igbo people that constitute almost 45% of the residents. This is a departure and this tells every discerning mind that instead of moving forward in unity, we are seriously getting divided.
