The absurd part of the Galway West election is that Helen Ogbu who will likely win a seat in the next GE is a product of Fianna Fail and Fine Gael's failed asylum system of the early 00s. She should never have been allowed stay the country. Not only was she allowed to stay but FF/G funded her NGO career in Ireland.
Fianna Fail and Fine Gael are literally importing and financially supporting their own opposition.
Now will FF/G have an epiphany and crank up the deportation machine before 2029? Of course not. They'll simply find their own 'minority' candidates. It'll be FG's Indians Vs FF's South East Asians Vs the hard left's 'refugees'.
Ireland, it's a queer ol' place. 🤷♂️
Why are the left wing so desperate to fawn over Nigerians and ignore the tissue of lies they used to get into our country?
We had Pamela Izevbekhai in Sligo, then Rotimi Adebari in Laois, then the Oyekanmi family and now Ogbu!
Once anyone digs an inch deep the truth is revealed
The Labour party tried to intimidate me by issuing a highly personalised attack on me prior to the first story being published on Monday. That only made it worse.
@nwl88444048 The daily mail and the Sunday independent are two Irish newspapers who have been more consistent in printing stories and asking questions which are not favourable to the Irish establishment. So we should support newspapers like that.
@nwl88444048@Holdmypint@labour you're crying foul now because you know for a fact that Helen has repeatedly lied about her asylum claim. It's a known fact that her husband was not dead. She's a public representative, are you accepting known liars in your party?
@nwl88444048@KieranAH Politicians trying to keep her actual story out of the media. Their mindset "Wasn't in the papers, didn't happen" I wonder did they know she's a charlatan or were that caught out. One way or the other. It looks bad for them, their pet let them down.
You can now read today's frontpage Irish Daily Mail story about the deletion of Labour councillor Helen Ogbu website, free-of-charge, here...

Apparently the Labour party has one official who spends 40% of their time ‘blocking racist abuse and commentary on Meta platforms [Facebook, Instragram]’ about Helen Ogbu.
So Labour promoted a candidate with a false backstory. If Ms Ogbu didn't come to Ireland following her husband's death, what were the grounds on which she claimed asylum? Why didn't she go to a nearer country? How much did her claim cost Irish taxpayers?
Looks very bad for Labour.
Bacik personally repeated the false story, the party used it throughout the bye election campaign, and they only deleted it after getting caught.
Wonder if Ogbu will do them a favour and vacate her position as Mayor, or stay on and keep the pressure on them.
There is so security risk. Harry and Meghan attend concerts, basketball games, ring strangers doorbell for … , and roll their windows down for better pic. The drama and lawsuit is to feed their ego.
She conned her way into the country where indigenous taxpayers money was stolen to keep her…and then she was further rewarded with citizenship, a political role and a ceremonial role. She must be pinching herself at the stupidity and lack of self respect of Irish people every day. It was all just a breeze for her and all the other grifters coming in.
Do we care about the exact timings and circumstances of Ms.Ogbu's entry to Ireland? Probably not.
Do we care about our politicians telling and repeating bare-faced lies? Absolutely.
@labour need to sort this out and quickly as it now involves their leader.
The @labour party is struggling to get its story straight.
Instead, they focused on attacking the media.
Last night they issued a contradictory statement that leaves more questions than answers...

Huge credit to @irishdailymail and their brave lead on this @_BrianMahon_. This is the rarest of rare species, an outbreak of investigative journalism surrounding Ireland's catastrophic border management over the past 25+ years.
You could count on one hand how many times a national media journalist dared go into this territory for fear of the inevitable defamation and cries of 'racism'.
No. This is morally courageous journalism! This is what the 4th Estate is supposed to do, hold the powerful to account. Ireland is a mess precisely because the national media took the government handouts and looked the other way for so long.
The nasty response by the Labour Party shows how shocked they are that someone dared question the holes in Ogbu's story.

HELEN OGBU'S LATE HUSBAND'S TIES TO ISRAEL
According to his obituary at iNigerian, her husband Nze was "Igbo leader at the University of Uyo and in Israel during his diaspora days."
He spent time in the state during the 90s.
Previously Helen came under fire from BDS supporters for her hypocrisy in staying at the Israeli-owned Leonardo Hotel in Galway in June despite attending a protest at said hotel the previous May.
