 Hello and welcome to what are you saying hashtag ways where we talk about topics in the news as it affects us all I am was I am a Sally and today Angels and who's to deal with me today. I Read our story Right Nobody weekend. It was not a funny or deal I I just from the show like literally I couldn't go home like I was it was like Temperature from here to there I was feeling so feverish and all of that. Sorry that takes on medications that got me hallucinating I'm telling you I'm not felt like that in a very long time I think the way the way I felt over the weekend. It was like 2012. I think that I felt that way Maybe 20 20 to about 2015. I'm not sure now. What year was it when I went With my mom's the UK and I was feeling like you know how you're all fully kitted up in the Winter jacket yet. If you felt like you were like naked in the snow. I was feeling the cold inside my bone It's not been it's not been I've not had that in a long time So I think it's just accumulated stress and all of that, but I think I'm fine I don't have a choice. I'm here, aren't I? So, how are you? How's your day? Good good. I had a good weekend, but today just started off. I started feeling a bit, you know funny today, but What is with you? I think Joella is joining us via Zoom. Joella, are you there? Okay, she's not there yet. Okay, today's my mom's birthday. Let me quickly give her a shout out before I'm sure she's watching. Mommy happy birthday. And my dad's birthday was on Saturday They follow each other. Mommy and daddy. I love you guys. All right, so tonight in conjunction with Of course enough is enough like we always do every Monday We're examining the historical timeline of presidential election Petitions in Nigeria and looking to the need for election petitions to be sped up and completed before a candidate is sworn in so let me come to to Because we have a couple that we would like to run through Let me come to which one now give me a second. Let me find it. All right, so Let's find the ongoing case it as of course that is happening with the presidential election tribunal Bola Metin was sworn in on the 29th of May That's on Monday 29th of May in 1999 We should go a bus on your bus sauce. Oh, look for life Declared winner for life is sued and lost the length of the dispute was about 32 days while 2003 We should go a bus on job versus Muhammedu Buhari and them would make a juku a Bussinger is declared women. Why are you running up on a juku third place? Of course, he sued and they lost at the Supreme Court the length of the dispute was over two years I mean when I see these I'm like, okay, let's just take a step And we have the strength, you know, to be able to go all the long haul right? I mean, so what do you have for us AJ? Oh, well, I know that in 2007 it was More Musa Yardwa versus Muhammedu Buhari and Atiku Abu Bakar and Yardwa was declared winner and Buhari and Atiku sued and lost at the Supreme Court and that lasted for a year. Oh, wow and Somewhere down the line you have 2011 where it was good luck Ebele Jonathan versus Muhammedu Buhari Jonathan was declared the winner and Buhari sued and lost Why don't you for this game? He sued and lost and the length of that dispute was over several months So you see that over the years it's it's reducing It's not a win that nobody actually complied to the you know, I think he's at 80 day or what's the turnaround time? I think it's 180 days. 180 days before, you know, before Swaring in and out. So none of these cases have even met the You know, there was a call this the supposed standard You know, and then when we go down to 2015 we have Muhammedu Buhari versus Goodluck Jonathan and Buhari was declared winner. Jonathan did not contest that election the election results that year So that's what I have so far and it's interesting because in 2015 I and I think you know We would have seen somewhat like a repeat of what happened in 2015 in 2023 But we didn't see that because again if you remember the elections It was almost like people got to that point where they were just tired You know, of course the narrative was that then President Jonathan was not, you know He was he was allowing a lot of people to to eat eat our treasury, you know Like empty our treasury. He wasn't like from you know, and all of that So under his watch a lot of things were happening corrupt practices and all of that But you know, he was the first person to even call then then president He liked worry to congratulate him. So, I mean, I'm jealous. You're here Oh, yes, I am. Welcome. Hi. Good evening. Hi, Jola Thank you I'm okay. So continuing from where you stopped MJ in 2019 There was a Mohammed Buhari versus Buhari declared winner at equal stood and lost and length of length of time for dispute was for five months In 2023, of course the very popular 2023 Polar image to know who versus Peter will be an article about To know who declared winner will be an article seeking cancellation of the results Here is began May 30th and are expected to earn July the third 2023 Of course, the tribunal as we mentioned earlier in one of our Advocacy series was that 180 there's a 180 day deadline to rule on election petitions I will say that. I mean, it is too long. The 180 day rule is actually just too long Tribunals should be completed before elected candidates are sworn in Justice delayed is definitely just this denied All right, so I mean thanks to nothing is enough for always updating us part of our our what's it called Would I call it a mandate for us on ways every Monday is to educate the citizens because again, we realize that it's not so much of The things that are happening that is really affecting us as a people is more of our ignorance So it's important that we get informed. So if you want to know more about your elected officials, you know go to just chat hello to 0176381 as a chat box for The officer of the citizen is very important that you say hello chat Know your representatives know your local government councillors your local government chairman state house of assembly members house of representative members your senators your governors and your course the duties and the functions of these offices So you are clear as to directing and whatever challenges or problems that you think, you know, you want to, you know Challenge probably dispute or whatever you need to channel it to the right quarters. All right. So thank you Lady, so we'll take a break now when we come back from that break Oh, okay. We are actually supposed to say what our quote for today is So, I mean in line what we're discussing today. Here's what we found as today's quote So if you just communicates you can get by but if you communicate skillfully you can work miracles and this is from Jim Rohn He is a speaker and an entrepreneur. So enter transformative communication of the leaf Is the opportunity to experience another way of communicating based on development of qualities such as empathy responsibility Assertiveness and leadership. So today we'll be discussing transformative leadership through communication with toast master messy George and distinguished toast master could be We younger But we'll do all of that first as quickly run on the break when we come back. We'll see what we found in the news All right, you are still watching ways now united nations designated fifth of june as world environment day to highlight That the protection and the health of the environment is a major issue Which affects the well-being of people and economic development throughout the world the celebration of this day provides us with an opportunity to broaden the basis of an enlightened opinion and responsible conduct by individuals Enterprises and communities in preserving and enhancing the environment This I don't think there's any way to coin the world and the environment and how it impacts us And for as much as you can wherever you have the opportunity Do things right that? That enhances the environment as opposed to depleting it. I saw Tony Lumele today and I think he's dupe Planting a tree. So a lot of people would use this day to plant trees A lot of people would, you know, do some level of advocacy and all of that So if you can try as much as possible to avoid litters, I mean, I see this all the time I wish there would be a law that will come back to Nigeria where We will stop to throw what's it called pet bottles or plastic trash, you know Off through our windows. I mean if we do that alone I know how much is going to help with our environment, especially when it comes to issues around flooding and all of that So in any way you can try as much as possible to As you call preserve your environment and do the right thing when given the opportunity So let's quickly run off to what we found. NJ, what did you find Rose? So I have a story here that an estimated 275 people were killed in a horrific train accident in India over the weekend And officials say this is due to bad signals, you know, survivors Apparently the train You know went off the track And hit another collided with another train and You know the population of people In India that depend on their train their rail system is over 20 million. So you can imagine Um Apart from the horrific accident You're thinking about how other people are going to be affected how traders are going to be affected How individuals are going to be affected how they'll get to work because now, you know, they have to Clear the area first of all find everyone because there's still a lot of people missing people some people have been able to you know Recognize or to find the bodies of their Family members and some people have a year to you know, literally when I saw this video like literally I thought Please be a move because it was so unreal for me when I saw it It was so unreal like the amount of There was just so much chaos, you know different collision now I think at some point they had said it was about 288 and they now brought down the numbers because they counted some bodies twice This is really sad. It's very sad Really sad. Really sad. I know the population in India. So it's not It's really sad. Our heart goes out. Look at the man crying about his brother. They're just nearly married and all of that Our heart goes out to everyone right now. Family, family, friends. I don't I don't think we know how You know to take this news honestly So sad so so sad All right, dear. Like your story Okay. So, um, well on subsidy matters, um, nlc shawns meeting with f3 Cuc6 pay rise. That's the headline news. Um so, um about last week wednesday, um, nlc and the federal government initiated um talks around the subsidy and um, I mean, um This has um impacted on citizens and um Full, um, price hike So, um, there was a meeting between the government officials and labor leaders and this ended in a dead block and as a result of NNPC, you know, released in petrol pump price to um between 488 and 557 of course, um some nlc Leader had mentioned that um, the federal government Officials or you know, people that were supposed to have talks with them. They were they were supposed to have reconvened yesterday, but um They did not come to the table. They were not interested in um negotiation or having a conversation with the federal government until The price had gone back to pre may 29 Um, that's um, that was the only condition for which they would sit down and then have a talk with them However, the trade union Congress of Nigeria yesterday met with government officials But the meeting was also inconclusive as both parties resolved to continue talks on the issue tomorrow bearing in mind that um nlc mobilizes for a strike on wednesday and um has urged all, um civil societies and um other I don't know whoever, you know to mobilize and everybody should be very involved in the Strike, I don't know. It's just um, I think For me, I don't even know if this is a step in the right direction in terms of the strike I always feel that um A conversation we should always look for ways to have Well, I think it's even good that we're having a conversation around communication today because I think again every time It seems we cannot always be honest. I'm like, why can we not, you know So there is a problem. We know that there's a big scam around subsidy. Everybody has agreed, right? But you see the way and manner and you know of communicating this problem This challenge goes a long way in finding solutions to it. Now look at it In fact, we're going to discuss this fair matter again tomorrow because I need to understand what the landing cost of fuel is Even on nmpc putting the price at 488 right to five whatever the brand What arrived that I mean like what is the calculation that got us to that arrival of that that number? Right, I mean, you know that everyone is suffering So can we also try as a government to say, you know what? What are the reasons that the prices will land at an expensive price? Like, can we take off all those costs? Do you understand? And let us even see what it can come to We're not even seeing that body language of, you know what? We actually understand the pain Let me now even start to declare matter because if I start that matter, we'll not live here today I just want to quickly say that johesu Suspends strike for 21 days after meeting the president tinumbu. Um, so this is joint health Sector union and assembly of healthcare professional association They've suspended their indefinite strike for 21 days and this was announced. Um, I thought the leadership had met with the president. So the acting national secretary Matthew Ajiro too in a tech-set sense to the correspondent said that the President promised to approve their demands like we have started it all over again It is well, we'll take a break when we come back from the break. Let's discuss communications. Stay with us
