The leadership of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) condemns in the strongest possible terms the emerging height of political recklessness in Lagos and Ekiti states ahead of Saturday’s governorship and House of Assembly elections and calls on all Nigerians to stand up against such anti-democratic tendencies.
The senseless and unpatriotic impeachment move against Governor Ayo Fayose by out-going APC state legislators and the barbaric death threats on non-indigenes in Lagos by the Oba of Lagos, Oba Rilwan Akiolu if they vote for the PDP candidate, Mr. Jimi Agbaje ascend to a height of unruliness that should not be accommodated.The PDP totally and unequivocally rejects the flimsy and unsubstantiated allegations concocted by the APC legislators against Governor Fayose. We state in very clear terms that we will stand with him and bear our full weight in defense of the mandate freely given to him by the people of Ekiti state.
We invite all lovers of democracy and the international community to note the antics of APC and the deliberate plot to destabilize the polity even when it is yet to assume power.
In the same vein, it is indeed most unfortunate that a royal father of the status of the Oba of Lagos should attempt to drag the revered traditional institution into partisan politics to the level of threatening innocent Nigerians with the view to prevent them from freely exercising their constitutionally guaranteed right.
Our response to the Oba of Lagos is that he cannot play God and can never be God. God owns the universe and every part of it and can never share His glory with any human no matter how highly placed. We therefore call on all Nigerians in Lagos state; all Igbos, Hausas, Yorubas and people of other tribes; all northerners and southerners; all Christians and Muslims to turn against this unpatriotic stance, by coming out enmasse to vote for the PDP candidate, Mr. Jimi Agbaje on Saturday.
Undoubtedly, this anti-Nigeria position reminds of the 2013 inhuman and callous arrest, detention and eventual ‘deportation’ of non-indigenes by the APC-led government of Lagos state and confirms fears that the APC is indeed on a mission to destroy our national unity, balkanize the nation and obliterate the personal freedom Nigerians enjoy today.
Already, the APC has started terrorizing supporters of the PDP with vows to make life unbearable for them when it eventually assumes power. Our investigation reveals that many of our prominent supporters have been marked. The process has already started with threats to the life, family and business of the Chairman of the Transformation Ambassadors of Nigeria (TAN), Dr. Ifeanyi Ubah for supporting PDP candidates and helping non-indigenes win some Lagos seats in the National Assembly on the platform of the our great party.
Indeed, if this threats on a duly elected state governor and innocent Nigerians constitute the picture or foretaste of the order of the day when the APC finally assumes power at the center, then the nation is in serious danger. However, the PDP states in very unambiguous terms that Nigerians would not accept such under any guise whatsoever.
This is more so because in the last 16 years, our citizens from all walks of lives have seen civility and decorum under the PDP-led administration and would not accept any attempt by anybody to institute a reign of terror in the country.
We therefore urge General Muhammadu Buhari as the leader of the APC to call his members and supporters, particularly in Lagos and Ekiti to order; especially bearing in mind that it was the peaceful atmosphere and the level playing ground nurtured by the PDP-led administration that created the room for his emergence at the presidential polls.
Our country cannot at this moment afford to slide into anarchy, reign of terror and deliberate schemes to divide the people for selfish political reasons.
The PDP will completely resist all anti democratic forces from any quarters. We therefore charge Nigerians, especially those in Lagos and Ekiti states respectively to stand up fearlessly and reject the unpatriotic stance of the Oba of Lagos and the undemocratic move to dismantle the mandate given to Governor Ayo Fayose by the people.

ReplyDeletePolitics! PDP sef take this opportunity to yarn rubbish..
DeleteAll na strategy, PDP should park well jor..
Delete@Damilola, no be rubbish yarn be this abeg. This is democracy era, and people have the right to choose and vote whomever they so desire. Why the threat? Why the desperation? And all these coming from a well respected traditional ruler in the person of the Oba of Lagos is truly disturbing and shameful. I stay in the North and I know how passionate people can be about their political beliefs (thank God it was all peaceful this time around). So why try to impose a candidate on people threatening them with death if they fail to vote him? Things like politics shouldn't be joked with in a country like Nigeria, and at this time for that matter. Hummmmm.....I'm just so surprised and shocked by this whole thing. Anyone that wishes anybody dead, will die before him/her by God's grace.

ReplyDeleteIt's highly irresponsible that somebody of his status could make such statement. and it's going to be jimi agbaje all the way, let him do his worst if jimi wins and ambode loses, and to think that ambode has not released a statement distancing himself from this repugnant statement makes it sardonic
ReplyDeleteYour comment will be visible after approval
This one I agree with pdp,
ReplyDeleteWhat the oba did is very wrong and uncalled for.
As for the ekiti state own, fayose doesn't deserve to be a governor, I won't be sad if he is impeached.
Otu gbawa ebe ahu! APC Baboon!

The impeachment of Fayose and the stupid statement by the Oba are mutually exclusive abeg.
ReplyDeleteAPC aka angry people's congress. APC is a violent, wicked, intolerant, undemocratic, demonic etc party. Despite the fact that they have won the Presidential election they are still causing trouble. Nigerians never see anything, this is just the beginning .
ReplyDeleteJimi u gat my vote. APC has so made me change my mind
ReplyDeleteWhich means you don't have a mind of your own, they are using strategy for you, u sef dey gaukk am.. Idiot
DeleteThe man was obviously trying to play God. I
ReplyDeleteWonder who holds him accountable for
such statement. The wrong words are hurtful
but pipo like that Oba don't know it.
Love the way the ibos defended their own.
I condemn in strong terms the Oba's choice of word. This is democracy and no one should be cowed to vote a particular candidate.
ReplyDelete~BONARIO~says so via NOKIA LUMIA
I have to agree with PDP on this one. No one should be threatened or persecuted.
ReplyDeleteHahahahaha Now we know the Oba was actually trying to intentionally sabotage Ambode's chances. God pass them.

ReplyDeleteD thing is d ibos arent if fazed by all these empty threats n humiliation. we knw itz all based on envy dats y nig dint n dnt want to let us go. Evn in ur lagos, we r a necessary evil for u guys. U hate us n call us names *yimu* ,but r affiliated wit pple dt only knw d word kill n maime...we dnt kill, stirr tension or unrest, are not diabolical or militants...a very peaceful pple whose only crime is d burning desire to always succeed n prosper. So Nigeria keep bringing it, as long as d true God is surely on our side no weapon, conspiracy, curse or incarnation against us shall prosper
ReplyDeleteOh please stop already. I am not in support of the oba but then again, is pdp playing victim here? Pdp has surely done worst than this.

DeleteCorrect, we cannot be intimidated! We must come out and vote for d candidate of our choice. I just made a switch to #voteJimi #switchtovoteJimi. What a threat! This is the height of anti democracy. Nigerians this is a big deal incase you don't know. Na like this e dey start. Carry ur life jackets and go n vote.

ReplyDeleteNigerians saw this coming after that garrulous oba opened his mouth and gave PDP ammunition. SO all of a sudden Fayose is a saint??? After Ekiti gate proof?? So this has now become an attack on a party?
ReplyDeleteAnother thing, Fashola deported different tribal indigenes including yorubas because we live in a country where you are believed to be from a state not because you were born there but because your ancestors were born there. Yet we pray to move on in Nigeria.
About APC threatening non-APC because they are now in the federal position, which party kept announcing, "vote our party, we will develop your states"? Or are Jonathan and his wife and even Agbaje suddenly in APC??? Oh please!
Linda you are biased,Yes you are.. I understand what the KING said wasn't right and he should not have said something like that because we are ONE Nigeria and we should put sentiment aside.. But when GEJ said they should stone anyone who mentioned ''CHANGE'' you did not report that news the way you are reporting this issue.. Stop being bias Linda.. You are PDP and it shows from your reports.
ReplyDeleteDude take a chill pill.... ur also biased to even make such comments! Ode!!
DeleteMay GOd have mercy. www.make125kpermonth.com/free.html
ReplyDeleteHow can oba be so stupid to make such statements?
ReplyDeleteI'm really upset at this Oba for thinking he can say such...who gave him the right?!...but PDP please listen up, we will also not allow you to use this situation to sneak Fayose's matter into this...
ReplyDeleteWe the Nigerian people are done with this PDP/APC nonsense...we will go out enmasse and vote Jimi Agbaje, not because of his party but because he is clearly the most competent of the two and also to make a clear statement to people like the PBA of Lagos, that we are citizens and not slaves and we will never succumb to threats.
In the same vain, we the people of Ekiti do not want Fayose anymore..when he was impeached in 2006, Ekiti had peace!! but the PDP brought him back through d back door, even though it was supposed to be at least 10years before he would have been eligible to contest for public office...
We the people of Ekiti are highly intelligent and cerebral people and we will never be comfortable with a man who threatens hia people with violence, acts with impunity and treats the office of governor like that of a bus garage chairman
Whether PDP or APC, this is the season of change and we the Nigerian people are standing together in one voice...all you politicians and their spokes persons better watch out!!
ReplyDeleteThe oba of Lagos is a complete disgrace whatever he claims to represent.
Never knew that Dude Metuh can release a statement without insults to garnish it.
ReplyDeleteYou are all mad, both PDP and Fayose are going down the drain. We all want to live in a country where 19 > 7. Change has come. Nobody can save him.
ReplyDeletewe will still vote for Ambode. Thank you & say no to PDP in Lagos or die in d lagoon. You ppl should go back 2 Aba.

ReplyDeleteThe statement of the oba was both parochial and shameful, notwithstanding he does not represent the APC as he's not a card carrying member of the party. He's entitled to his personal views like any citizen of this great country. It will be unfair and mischievious to nail this misconduct to the APC just because it concerned one of it's candidates.
Pdp just gained grounds......Apc be forming kingkong bcuz of Buhari's victory mtchewwww
ReplyDeleteMy take is that should anybody as much as sneeze! Akiolu ( he has reduced himself to his normal name cos he did not act like an Oba) should be arrested. He should start getting ready. His prison outfit material has already been taken to the tailor.
ReplyDeleteArrgh! Wow, politics is so so very interesting. I might just vie for a political position my dear self. More like a game of chance or game of chess to me. I Just like to sit back and watch d light screen, today it's APC, on d morrow, it's PDP and a day after its APC again.
ReplyDeleteWell said, I am Apc support but the oba has messed up
ReplyDeleteNawah! God help this country and save us from desperate politicians.
ReplyDeleteThis so called Oba might just have single handedly made Abode to loose this election. Ambode needs a lot of begging and explaining to the Igbo's and other tribes in order to get there trust. May God help him.
ReplyDeleteI undastd dis pple's pain, wat d oba said ws vry wrong n lyk I said too expensive. He shd come out n defend himsf n apologise

ReplyDeleteFor this senseless statements by a supposed Oba, who is meant to have some level of wisdom, we will vote Jimi Agbaje
ReplyDeleteMy fellow Yoruba brothers, Lagos does not belong to Riliwanu. He is a thief and wants to keep eating our taxes. All tribes make Una vote. BOLD IDEAS - Jimi Agbaje 2015.
This is serious
ReplyDeleteBoth apc and pdp should just stop heating up the polity.
ReplyDeleteI know PDP must strike! Desperate cows, opportunistic parasites! Is the oba of Lagos a card carrying member of APC? He doesn't even speak for the APC neither does his myopic opinion reflects that of the APC. The oba is a disgrace to himself but PDP is more disgrace for associating him with APC and Ambode. The oba is just one of Ambode's biggest fans like some of us, with one vote!
ReplyDeleteTotally beg to differ. A monarch stays out of politics even if he has a preferred candidate. Also in a true democracy you don't blackmail people to vote. That is their fundamental human right. It is down to each candidate/party to make a case for why their candidate should be voted for. No make threats or share brown envelope. I live in the west where true democracy is practiced. H.O.B
DeleteB4 all dis drama inicially i knew PDP is d best dat can happen to Lagos...if u can c
ReplyDeleteThe Oba was really wrong for bringing up such statement that can lead to anarchy. I hope the whole situation dies there.
ReplyDeleteFirst of all, when Governor Fayose won the elections, did he or did he not act recklessly against APC lawmakers and Fayemi's people? Rubbish, y'all. PDP et APC!
ReplyDeleteI'm truly sick and tired of people like you.And I feel very sorry for the many that will lose their lives over self centered people like you.for you to honestly put fayose in our faces where 7 legislators out of 22 impeached the speaker and you openly say there's nothing wrong?
ReplyDeleteThe embarrassing audio clearly heard by the world of fayose,obanikoro and others has been swept under the carpet.An audio that left little to the imagination where the pdp laid out its rigging plans and you have the audacity to say he was voted for!
The oba should not under any circumstance have said what he did.But oh my,oh my,the videos of pdp members taking blood oaths would surface soon if you aren't careful.
A sinking ship that unfortunately now has something that can be dismissed as the rants of an old man is now being used as the weak campaign mantra.pity!
I hate to say this but you can't benefit immensely from a system and turn your back against it.but I guess my dear Ibo brothers and sisters are known for doing anything for money and lacking in truth and integrity.loyalty isn't one of our strongest points.its well.
I beg to differ what favour is Lagos doing for the Igbos. They pay their rents not like they live in Lagos for free. They pay their taxes not like they are exempted. So they have every right to support anyone or party that will support their interest and views. Not a party that playing tribalistic politics in this day and age
DeleteVote Jimi Agbaje for governor of lagos state.. #change is all we want..
ReplyDeleteAPC don begin
ReplyDeleteOk. I will vote Agbaje because of this unfortunate incident.
ReplyDeleteThis is a call for massive support for JIMI AGBAJE in Lagos state..we can now see the extent the APC will go for Power..we saw this in the case of the BH conspiracy and massive campaign to downgrade Mr President in d North.. The Oba of Lagos should be put to shame in exchange for Democracy continue with legacy of GEJ...the Oba should come to realize that this is 2015.. To hell with him and JIMI AGBAJE for Governor
ReplyDeleteShut up JK. Pdp is just a frustrated propaganda party. Wic ibo state can boast of 1 yoruba/hausa senator or commissioner. Lagos has been good to d ibos under APC n Ll Cont to do so. So let JK(just kidding) Agbaje take a chill pill
ReplyDeleteBig fool, u hv no brain!
DeleteNobody stops you from contesting in IGBOLAND for any elective position! As long as you feel you can win. Those that contested never asked you for money rather your vote, if they had lost they will all simply go hhome and llackthere wounds. So you are FREE to take that GAMBLE! MMTCHEEEWWWWWW

Ndigbo like d Israelites where they migrated from are living in d midst of d enenies, yet are dominating in all areas. Why should an Oba make that kind of hate speech, this reminds me of d deportation of d Igbos from Lagos state. The state they ve invested heavilly in and contributes to its development. This is enough reason for Ndigbo to vote APC out of Alausa, as change is due in Lagos state also and free Lagos from Thefnubu n co., and their over-taxation and exploitations. Expand yur Horizon.

ReplyDeletePersonally the Oba is free to swear if he believes in it . Anybody that has the conviction that they are doing the right thing need not fear any curse. Prople should not weep up unnecessary sentiments. The truth be told as the Oba said, This will never be allowed in Aba or Onitsha! I don't brleive in curses and the people he is addressing need not.

DeleteLet God's will be done
ReplyDeletevery soon Olisa Mentuh will be speaking from prison. we cannot forget how you pepple suffered opposition. you will reap what you sow.
ReplyDeleteThis Oba should be reported ASAP to the International Criminal Court (ICC) for inciting genocide. This is no joke. We have the proof in audio and video, he needs to be held accountable for any violence that erupts from now and after the elections against non-indigenes.
ReplyDeleteI totally agree to this.
DeleteHis utterances point towards inciting unrest and genocide against a particular tribe.
The ICC should be made aware.
Absolutely spot on. The same time that applies to PDP must apply to APC.
DeleteThe Oba does not belong to nor speak for the APC. He's views do not represent the vast majority of non Igbo Lagosians.That being said I wonder where this Agbaje's righteous sermon was when 7 out of 26 ekiti reps impeached their speaker and took control ? it was Ok then because it favored PDP.
ReplyDeleteWe're all Nigerians and until we can put the Nation's interest before personal gain,we will continue to act the same script with a different cast

ReplyDeleteThis oba Is insane.
ReplyDeleteLinda, I think you should not allow your blog to be platform for ethnic hatred. I can assure you that 95% of Yoruba in South West do not support the Oba's statement. What all right thinking people should be doing is to condemn the statement. We all have a lot to loose If there is problem in Lagos. The issue is not about political party as the Oba said that he was not bothered about Presidential election because Jonathan is his son but his area of interest is who becomes the Governor of Lagos State. I Strongly suggest that Buhari and Jonathan should issue a joint statement condemning the statement.
ReplyDeleteSo she should not post it abi? Cos you ate yoruba therfore your wrongs must not be exposed! Did you also tell her that when you lots were spinning lies against GEJ and she was posting all your lies? You yorubas like to gloat at other people's downfall and will be the loudspeaker to announce it world wide but when you mess up you start being all sentimental and diplomatic! Bloody Hypocrites!
DeleteTotally agree. They are hypocrites.
DeleteWhen ekitigate audio was revealed, what's the position of PDP on it?
ReplyDeleteRivers last week election, any statement from olisa?
Now that pdp is a minority party, you now feel what people have been feeling for the past 16 yrs, pdp oppressed in every Dec us u on, even in the Senate.
Pdp can't interfere in the decision of ekiti house of assembly. When fayose sent them on exile, what did you say about that? When 7 pdp lawmakers impeached the speaker (7 is greater than 16), what did pdp say about it? What you sow you shall reap, power belongs to God, not pdp.
A Oba turn to politician, the bribe you been taking will choke you to death. brain dead fool,
ReplyDeleteGod will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who would attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know my name is the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon thee .... Ezekiel 25:17 Oba must die first and soon ... ignorant forgot

The crazy Lagos Oba should go to hell with the later clarification !! It baffles me how a corrupt king thinks that he still possesses the same magical powers potent enough to make anything happen like his predecessors of centuries ago !! And only a silly Igbo man will vote for Ambode in Lagos. The oba just campaigned for Agbaje indirectly and no amount of clarifications can make igbo people “unhear” what they already heard!!! To be clear I am Yoruba man. This corrupt Lagos king is a disgrace to what Yoruba pride represents as encapsulated in this statement from the highly-revered Oba Awujale of Ijebu-Ode on the occasion of GEJ visit to Ijebu-Ode:-
ReplyDelete–
“In Ijebu, it is not possible for any Oba, not only in Ijebu, but Yorubaland, to go out and say vote for this or vote for that. Whoever does that is looking for trouble. But give the candidate the opportunity to present his programme so that people can make up their minds on what to do. I think this is a very sound democratic principle and that is what I have decided to do, to give you the opportunity of meeting with the people”.
That’s the only Oba I respect in Nigeria, as well as the Oba of Benin. Enough said
Sound expression from a sound mind.
DeleteThe unfortunate statement does not represent the view of majority of the Yorubas. Most of my friends are Ibos and none of them will die in Lagoon. However I don't like the way some people are insulting the Yoruba because of one man.
ReplyDeleteAbeg make they go sit down, the freedom we gave them in lag, we yorubas no fit try am for their land, the
ReplyDeletey con dey take our slot. How many pple fit get high governmental pOsiton in Igbo wen Amadioha no wan strike the person down. Eg commission al of Finance and fiscal...... and Joe igbokwe is the APC. spokesperson in lagos and d DG of laison Man. So we get the right to swear for them.
Just keep quiet if you don't have anything sensible to say.
DeleteRubbish
How many of you leave Lagos to live in the east and speak Ibo? As far as I am concerned until an Igbo man becomes a governor in Lagos we are not practising true democracy. Igbos are the most enterprising people I know and should have say and voice in Lagos as a major stakeholders. By the way I am Yoruba.
DeleteIs it APC dat threatened d igbos in lagos or d oba? And wen fayose beat up a judge in d court room where were u! PDP should just get it straight dat their time is up for good. Time to start feeling wat u made odas felt for d past 16years

ReplyDeleteFor this singular reason, my vote and that of my family and friends is for JIMI. Let Rilwan do his worst! He just campaigned for JIMI.
ReplyDeleteWHETHER YOU LIKE IT OR NOT, APC WILL WIN LAGOS STATE. IT IS YOUR CHOICE TO BE PAT OF THE SUCCESS STORY AND BE HAPPY YOUR VOTE COUNTED OR BE AGAINST APC AND REGRET THROWING YOUR VOTE INTO THE LAGOON.
ReplyDeleteI hope Jimi Agbaje wins like Buhari next Saturday in the name of god. All Igbos should vote for PDP. Yoruba should vote for Jimi, not for PDP. It is not personality instead of party.
ReplyDeleteLagos Igbo leader said he promised the Oba of Lagos to vote for Ambode and did not to argue with Oba in his palace. I am Yoruba but I will cry if Jimi loses because of the way the Igbo people were abused by Oba Akiolu.

@anonymous 10.37pm why insult all the Yorubas? This is not about politics. It's is about ensuring peaceful coexistence in Lagos which belongs to all Nigerian. The Oba did not speak on behalf of the Yoruba. He said Lagos belongs to him but he was wrong and should be condemned. But what will anybody gain by turning Yoruba against the Ibos in Lagos State?
ReplyDeletehe picked ambode, his views represent that of Ambode.. will he have the power to pick a candidate if he wasn't a card carrying member of the party?? all d people defending this shameful and ignorant remark will all suffer miserably.. and if u r a true son of igboland and u vote ambode and not Agaje, God will disgrace u for cowering and not fighting for ur people...
ReplyDeleteYou cannot eat your cake and have it. If you reject the igbos also reject the oil money.
ReplyDeleteIt is interesting to see that the lazy PDP aspirant in Lagos has latched unto the Statement of the Oba of Lagos using it as a platform to think he will win the elections on Saturday. I will not vote for Jimi Agbaje, simply because the Oba of Lagos made a statement that does not represent Yorubas in general and in Lagos especially. Anyone that will at the is point change his mind and vote for Jimi Agbaje based on this should be pitied and obviously lacks foresight and is not in support of development of Lagos State. I imagine lots of Nigerians wanted change (APC), so what is suddenly happening? You didn't judge well initially? Do you now regret casting your votes? Please let us stand for what we believe in: Change, Development, The APC Party and Ambode. The Oba of Lagos is not God. Please vote wisely, vote Ambode on Saturday!
ReplyDeleteThe Oba of Lagos will pay dearly for his ult
ReplyDeleteerances
PDP all the way
ReplyDeleteNawa for dat man self
ReplyDeleteThe Ibos have the right to vote their choice candidate.Oba of Lagos need to be arrested
ReplyDelete@adewole tosade you are a very silly child... bastard!!!
ReplyDelete@adewole tosade you and that your dry relationship blog will die in the lagoon just like ur father has proclaimed upon you
ReplyDelete@adewole tosade so you want Linda to go to the east so that your dry relationship blog will take off??? LOL... hustler! Go meet your oba to help you na... ode buruku!
ReplyDeleteI didn't vote during the presidential election.. This time I must come out to vote; certainly not for the oba's candidate... I actually want to see if I will die in the lagoon
ReplyDeleteAmbode is a foolish man for not making a statement condeming this obas statement. As a mateter of urgency, he should be arrested for disturbing public peace.
ReplyDeleteAs for Fayose, PDP should not try to defend him. Fayose and this obas are the thing and both should be taken to the cleaners
Another political drama! God will save us oh!
ReplyDeleteSomething must have triggered this. I believe there is more to the story.
ReplyDeleteEverybody is talking about d Oba's coment but when Bishop David Oyedepo said anybody that says GEJ will not be re-elected dat dey will open the gate of hell for such person, una no talk ooo...PDP make una stop dis una stupid noise jor..wwbwb
ReplyDeleteThe Oba just cause the APC Igbo's vote.
