Fayose Demands Apology From PDP Within 72 hours

Published

on

 

Former Governor of Ekiti State, Ayodele Fayose, has demanded an apology from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) over his unlawful suspension from the party.

 

Fayose described the suspension as “libellous and defamatory” claiming that it was a ploy to tarnish his reputation.

 

In a letter dated March 31 and addressed to the PDP’s acting national chairman, Iliya Damagum, Fayose’s lawyer, Akinwale Kol-Taiwo, stated that his client was suspended without any valid reason.

 

The letter reads in part, “We are further informed by our client that by the letter dated 24th March 2023, the reversal of our client’s suspension from Peoples Democratic Party which was done without recourse to laid down procedure/due process of law as contained in the constitution of the Peoples Democratic Party (as amended in 2017) was requested.

 

“The Peoples Democratic Party, in retracing its steps and by implication admitting the content of the letter dated 24th March 2023, reversed the suspension of our client by a press release issued on 30th March 2023 through the office of the national publicity secretary of the Peoples Democratic Party.

 

“The aforesaid libellous press release was designed to smear and tarnish the good reputation of our client in the eyes of right-thinking members of the society, as well as to subject our client to odium, ridicule, and public opprobrium in presence of his political associates and the general public.

 

“There is no doubt that the action of the national working committee of the Peoples Democratic Party (NWC) in this purported suspension saga acted rashly on baseless and unfounded allegations, thereby making our party — the Peoples Democratic Party — not just look weak, but disorganised.” he added.

 

He further called on the PDP to issue an apology to Fayose within 72 hours of receiving the letter threatening to take legal action against the party if his demands were not met within the stipulated time frame.

 

Recall that the National Working Committee of the party had suspended Fayose and some other members over allegations of anti-party activities.

 

However, on Thursday, the PDP reversed the decision and warned members of the party to respect the party’s constitution.

US Election: How Citizens React To Trump’s Victory

Published

on

In the wake of the 2024 US presidential election, political endorsements have sparked controversy.

Kamala Harris received support from high-profile figures such as P. Diddy, Cardi B, Barack Obama, and Beyoncé, while Donald Trump gained endorsements from the Tate brothers, Elon Musk, and rapper Lil Wayne.

Some supporters of Trump celebrated the outcome, claiming that Americans chose “God over the devil,” with implications for a shift in cultural content, including less LGBTQ+ representation.

A twitter user reacting to the outcome said: “Kamala Harris was endorsed by the likes of P Diddy (Devil with horns), Cardi B (prostitute) , Barack Obama and Beyoncé (devil). Donald Trump was endorsed by the Tate Brothers, Elon Musk. And Lil Wayne. The People of America chose God over the devil. We gonna see less gay content”

@SLH2806 said: “America is ready to heal…. He is the man who will take us there. Thanks to all of you (his family). & to all those who helped raise his voice”

@gautam_adani said: “If there is one person on Earth who stands as the embodiment of unbreakable tenacity, unshakeable grit, relentless determination and the courage to stay true to his beliefs, it is Donald Trump. Fascinating to see America’s democracy empower its people and uphold the nation’s founding principles. Congratulations to the 47th POTUS-elect”

Donald Trump won the 2024 U.S. presidential election in a stunning comeback, securing more than 270 Electoral College votes, with a victory in the key swing state of Wisconsin.

Despite legal troubles and controversies, including multiple criminal indictments, Trump prevailed by capitalising on voter concerns about the economy, immigration, and rising prices.

His campaign focused on addressing issues like inflation and crime, while presenting Kamala Harris as unable to manage these problems.

Trump’s victory was driven by strong support from rural, white, non-college-educated voters, Hispanics, and lower-income households. The win also saw Republicans gain a majority in the Senate, though control of the House remains uncertain.
