Anything Goes: Why We Must Demand Quality Representation in Nigeria’s Legislature

Nigeria’s legislature has increasingly become a stage where anything goes. From senators engaging in ego battles to representatives who appear to have no grasp of governance, the quality of leadership in the country is declining rapidly. The House of Representatives, in particular, is now filled with individuals who neither inspire confidence nor display the intelligence required for the job.

Take, for example, Hon. Abass Adigun, representing Ibadan South-East/North-East. His recent public appearances have not only embarrassed his constituents but also made a mockery of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), the platform that brought him to power. The man is clearly unprepared for legislative duties, yet he occupies a seat meant for a serious-minded representative. Instead of pushing for policies that will improve the lives of his people, he has become a viral sensation for all the wrong reasons, a recurring subject of ridicule on social media.

But let’s ask ourselves; who is to blame? Is it just the lawmaker, or is it the people who voted him in? The truth is, many Nigerians continue to make poor electoral choices, prioritizing monetary handouts and personal favors over competence and integrity. The result? We end up with individuals who have no business making laws, let alone debating national issues on behalf of millions.

The Assembly has its own problems, and at this point, we’re not even sure what the outcome will be, an unending roforofo over leadership. The Speakership is now looking like autocratic. Though due process was followed in his impeachment, the Speaker who seems favoured by powers higher than the power of the majority who impeached him, is bent on returning through any means. Will Lagos self combust? That's the question on everyone's lip as it seems, 'the more you look, the less you see.

Exposed: Babatunde Gbadamosi's Dirty Recorded Phone Conversation with Ex-Wife's Domestic Staff

The case between a former gubernatorial candidate Babatunde Gbadamosi and his ex-wife, Sade Balogun has become a very filthy loft with one person playing as dirty as can be.
It is no longer news that the two separated after Gbadamosi impregnated his then lover, now wife, Yinka Balogun and was thrown out of Sade's house at Amen Estate. Gbadamosi, described as a mere sleeping partner in the business subsequently voluntarily, with his lawyer and a notary present, resigned his position as Chairman of the company. Sade's lawyer was also present when he tendered his resignation.
It is also a fact that after tendering his resignation and moving in with his new wife, Gbadamosi who everyone had hitherto thought owned the Amen Estate, did a complete turn around, by going to court to claim that he signed his own resignation under duress. After he began mudslinging Sade and her business on his social media handles and proxy accounts, Sade, who intended to be quiet out of respect for her children, was forced to carry out a disclaimer on him.
I really wonder what pushes people to hurt and keep hurting those they once claimed they loved.
I wonder what manner of character would condescend as low as the depths of low this person has descended in a bid to destroy the business or destroy the woman?
I really can't understand.
When you use your own hand to impregnate and marry another woman all without the knowledge of your wife, when you hurt someone so badly, do you expect her to fold her hands and still trust you as a partner of any sort? When your new wife resorts to shading her and cyber bullying her on social media, you think it's okay?
People are just not want you think.
Someone should please tell Gbadamosi that he is taking this thing too far and his receipts are stored in a cupboard.
His role in the recent news report about Sade's former staff and another realtor and how he took advantage of the events to mislead the world, orchestrating the press and unethical social media influencers to mud sling his ex is really pathetic. I have those receipts.
Sade, who was a neutral peace maker was painted in all sorts of dark colours just to defame her and bring her public opprobrium. I read what one of his lackeys wrote here on Facebook and felt deeply sorry for her. The Facebooker is lucky I am not the person in question. I would have sued her for Libel and criminal defamation, and ensured she faced the law in its full wrath.
People are clearly losing it.
Well, if getting news hounds to twist stories is not enough, Gbadamosi, the former governorship aspirant of Lagos, plays real low because I cannot understand why he keeps calling Sade's domestic staff and putting things into their heads. I was informed that when they blocked his number, he would allegedly get another one to call them.
The most damning of all evidence is the now infamous phone call Babatunde Gbadamosi made to one of the domestic staff which was recorded by the young lady.
In the audio presented here, a whole former guber candidate is heard saying, "Don't tell anyone what I am telling you, do you know Sade was arrested, yes she was and she is going to jail, don't worry, things are going to change"
The young woman was smarter than him of course. She led him on and recorded his Judas' plan. If a young domestic staff can be smarter than a top politician, you can now see why our country is the way it is. How can a man descend so low?
You can all go to his Facebook wall, it's Sade this, Sade that...I have never seen such cyber bullying.
In the second audio conversation, presented here, you can hear the domestic staff rebuking him and asking him not to call her again. I actually fell off my seat when I listened to that.

I do not know Gbadamosi's aim or objective. If you have resigned from a company OWNED by your ex - wife, why not face your front and your new marriage. Must you take possession by force? I really cannot understand what is pushing that man. Why is Babatunde Gbadamosi so bitter? Make una help me ask am.

Bola Tinubu Remains Best Consensus Candidate for APC- Team Nigeria

The aspiration of the national leader of the All progressives Congress (APC) has received further boost ,with the submission that he is the most suitable for consensus arrangements in the party.

The submission was made on Friday in Lagos by Team Nigeria For Change in a press release signed by its national president, Chief Bestman Nze Jumbo, describing the former Governor of Lagos state as “credible, reliable, dependable and a unifier who will be acceptable in all the six geo- political zones of the country”.

He further posited that with the adoption mode adopted at the national convention of the APC, if such should be replicated for the presidential primary,it should be done with the mindset of producing a credible and acceptable candidate that will be popular across the country.

According to him” it’s crystal that the 2023 elections are approaching, it’s for us as a group committed to good governance, that we will continue to talk about the Aspirants parading the political landscape. While we appreciate the jostling for the presidency by so many politicians, however,we want to say we must make our position known at this point in time.”

” With the recent conclusion of the national convention of the ruling All progressives Congress (APC) and the timetable by INEC on the conduct of primary elections by parties,we will want the party, APC ,to look critically into the Aspirants running under it’s banners and scrutinize properly,look at their antecedent, acceptability across the zones,the pedigree and above all,their commitment to good governance.

From our intense and widespread consultations,we have found out that only Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu has a towering influence and acceptable conduct across the country, so we will admonish the party to consider him ,for his efforts in the birthing of this democracy…”
