Very unfortunate to the naive understanding of The leaders of ASTD. They need to do the homework of how Democratic means of election really means. Very bad image

Ao tribes is the most tribalism, favouritism and nepotism where every naga knows

I'm Ao But Ill support Sumi candidate .My vote my Right ...Don't go for Tribalism ...Today your Leader is for your future generations

Strong action should be taken against the ASTD to set as an example.

They maybe called the pioneers, but they are the ones who have been promoting tribalism in each and every Naga field.

Let only the Ao's vote for themselves and the rest remaining tribe please vote any candidate but not the Ao's

They played the same card last general election involving DAYO too.. In dimapur 2 .. Hopeless

Kindly vote for candidates who can bring change and development in their wards.. Examine the capabilities of the candidates and not as bla bla bla tribe.. this is totally wrong and total violation of democratic process. There are some civil society who always dictate their community to vote for their tribe in the election.. that is very dangerous politics i should say... Playing politics in tribal cards can result bitter repercussions.

better vote for congress I'm full support congress

Not only immature but a foolish statement, I'm an Ao and I totally am against such decision

Last LS election also Ao play the role for their particular tribe... again this ULB election the y are playing the same

No tribal hoho should involve/interfere in politics, rather should remain neutral.

Clear DEFINITION of TRIBALISM ...

The most ism tribe has shown their true colour

It is against MCC....All the members of ASTD should be suspended

Either Ao or whatever tribe it is, Naga need to vote for Congress My opinion

Acha well people wherever their is Ao Candidate contesting by hook or by crook don't let them win this ULB election. The past LS election even their Pastors and reverands campaign against NDPP/BJP candidate.

Immature statement from the ASTD. Voting is a privilege and no individual should be dictated on how and whom to vote for. We all have our own and separate preferences. We're not living in the stone age.

I’m shocked Ao ASTD .. it will effect all Ao Candidates those who are Contesting from DMC ULB Election.. Mark my words

Same decision/ campaingn was made and done / applied accordingly by the ASTD & DAYO to the threes district of Dmr chumu & nuiland and appeal to other hohos and districts in the recently concluded Lok Sabha election.

This is the real face of the ao people. Full of tribalism.

It was very unwise of them to do this publicly. It is basic common sense to know that civil societies should never involve in politics. Appealing to their people to support the candidates from the own tribe was a cheap and dangerous move

Have seen this circulating since last evening, and I asked someone to translate it for me. I was very shocked to learn Ao people doing this.

I will vote for #Congress or #Independent

VOTING FOR CONGRESS.... NO BODY GOING TO STOP ME.

Imagine,if this statement was written by Angami or sumi kotom,,,,,,sob colony,area kotom.

This is it playing a tribal card. Let voter's decide whom to vote, apex bodies, hohos should not endorsed such directions. Apex bodies and Hohos will not look after our Wards welfare and civics development.

Exposing their Immaturity as an organization.

Stop using tribalism to further fragment our society VOTE FOR Capable CANDIDATE!

Etu hisab teh toh alak tribe khan sob milinah Ao candidate khan geh haria dibho lagai bho. Ism toh etu ase teh.

Ao khan pi itu tu bishi hoi ase naki...

What is wrong with the leaders of the ASTD?? Why would anyone in their right mind issue such a foolish diktat, when it is purely illegal? That too from a District apex tribal organisation.

This is why I don't like Aos and their organisations..they wont sell property to other tribes but other tribes sell to them,they don't vote for other tribes but expect votes from other tribes ...even in office ,if the person belongs to ao tribe and the officer is from ao tribe the works get done faster ...I'm not saying all Aos are like this but they generally are

My vote is for a candidate who will look after the welfare of the ward irrespective of the tribe to which he belongs....

Vote to those candidates who are capable of bringing development to your ward Don't see which tribe he/she belong

Iam Ao do but could not agree those blessing or select By ASTD decision

Ao manu danger ase tey...lotha,angami,sumi should not vote for Ao Tribe

My vote is for congress and independent candidate

Choose candidates based on their action and brain but not tribe and money

What happen to AO advance community it's funniest of the year shameless vote for Congress n independent

Dimapur town te ekta tribe bra eneka decision loile tu alak 15 tribes tu khoi keneka bhabe ase ??

Forget about Ao, congress etc no one has the right to dictate whom to vote for. Let people exercise their democratic rights.

Looking at the way candidates are spending money for the ULB election, one sees no development in the future.

From ONLY NAGAS to ONLY TRIBE... 👍🏻👍🏻 wow... Just wow 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Every concerned citizen must not let any political dramas win over one’s will power.Vote cautiously

The returning Officer Manpai Konyak is 100% right ? Who the hell are these individuals in the ASTD who is imposing such decisions arbitrarily without consulting or taking into confidence the opinions and wishes of the Ao community in general ! No organisation has a right to dictate terms ! Clarification is a must !

This is not a new thing we are hearing even during lok sabha election (ao tribe) even the church members ( leaders) were involved in the election to support their Ao candidate. Full of ism ....

Shame on U - ASTD... Grow up

No a joke but Ao ppl likes playing politics dirty 🤭

Very sad to learn this from one of the most advanced tribes.

As if other tribes don't do the same. This election for DMC seems to be between Ao and Semas. May the better person win.

I'm not AO but my Gf is Ao so opai nai ill have to vote Ao candidate but he/she must be Congress candidate ❤️🤭😂😂😂

Tribal Union should not interfere in Election.

"Money is the root of all evil" May you learn INTEGRITY Dear Wearing the CROWN!

Mother and father of tribalism in naga society is Ao every one knows this in Nagaland

I am from Ao Naga tribe but am so confused. I will support any candidate whom i want . Nobody can dictate me to vote or support a particular candidate

Vote for Congress vote for independen

I'm Against Tribalism 🙋

Pioneers wants to dominate dimapur😂

This is the grassroot level intention of some certain tribe. I am not surprised because some groups are the one who promotes the most Tribalistic mindset among the Nagas.

Ism existed, is existing, & would exist in one form or the other. That’s the system we live in. we have surnames/ tribes etc to help identify oneself but so arrogant that members of that Body have taken things much too far to undermine the process of Democracy.

Why this news is not available in other news channels as well? If it was done by other tribes I’m sure it will be trending all over Nagaland now

All the officials from ASTD should resign on moral ground this is not expected from so call advance tribe. I'm so ashamed by this being Ao.

Vote for capable candidate don't vote for money's 🤤🤤🤤

Shame on you ASTD.

Ao olai ley bi style hei kuri bo vote for good candidate😂

Ao manu laga naam putnam ase, clean election by ABAM biggest flop, clean election start kurekena manu toh moi Khan Ao manu hi mureshe nahoi?? Trying to be advanced is good, but beshi jania nishina acting kura karne other tribes doesn't respect our Aos like before, taktsü mapa ajak Aoer .i inyakmaranu

I'm an Ao. Who the hell is the ASTD to dictate to me. I will vote for the person who I think will be the best candidate to work for my ward.

Dear ASTD, if not mistaken Mrs Akokla Lucy is an angami lady, please clarify on it. See the case of Mrs Hayina Tungoe from Wokha

Full bloom tribalism attitude by birth, I worked in a private office in the past but this tribe is 110 percent tribalism so I just left .

Aaa reee itu too nohobo too ki AO manu hii ase nakii

Other tribes in nagaland considered AO community as most advanced n literate TRIBE but after seeing this BOOM DEAR ASTD the same opposite reaction may happen against u n ur community,“what goes around comes around” FOOLISH STATEMENT

Today our nagas people & families facing bcoz of tribalism.whoever may be works for upliftment of poor citizens of our state & towns bcoz majority are from poor background like us.therefore let us elect good educated honest leaders to leads our people in right direction.best wishes.

Immature.. iam ashamed of my self as an Ao

I am Ao but i will vote anyone as per long as he or she is Congress ...

DC/RO should question them regarding the purpose of their circular and impose punitive measures in accordance to the election rules for undermining the electoral process.

The most powerful poisionious tribe i have ever encountered Be careful guys they r extraordinary interms of ism and chalak

Ao manu bara free election ulashe but it's very funny about resolution Ao to Ao to vote

No hoho, UG or mla should be allowed to order whom i should vote

Sad

This step which the ASTD has taken is totally wrong! I being an Ao don't subscribe to such practices..... it's like being dictating/ pressurising...which goes totally against the democratic norms.

Ds s an open tribalism bu ASTD.

These is why Dr Chumben lost !!!! So sad !!!!

Ao tribe is the most Tribilistic mindset in Nagaland. Other tribes have it too but the level AOS are doing is another level. In every field.

I am Ao married to Sumi and I have a right to my vote. I do not support 'ism' or brute force or anything. I will vote for the candidate of my choice regardless of his/her tribe or party. Let us be the change. Exercise your right to vote people!!!

Something cooking up

Free fair election should be maintain by every civilized organization......

Nice 😮

Aooww!! Khaatara deh..😅

😢such a low position Ao Senden Dimapur has become. Personally I always consider Ao Senden particularly the apex body has been so far one of the matured and wise tribal bodies in Nagaland in dealing with common Social/ tribal issues. 😢this press release is just disgrace to it's very core sanctity.

So called advanced tribe of Nagaland..

As ASTD has decided/declared to support their respective Ao candidates, it is a serious time for other tribes to think & come to their senses, especially those who are voting for Ao candidates...🤔

What Ao think of themselves, they think they can dominate dmp chumo or what, not only Ao tribe is living in dmp and chumo, every tribe is there and even if it comes to tribal conflict what can they do, Ao are major tribe but think that you are down to two three tribe, use your words carefully because dmp and chumo is not the place of Ao

Shameful

We all know ao r full of ism. Even in every govt. office Ao are mother of is

What is this ? Tribalism is still alive in nagaland? Instead of eradicating it,how comes some organisation are still hell bent on preserving on ? Just because of your diktak,you don't know how much vote you have lost it.sic.

No wonder corruption and tribalism first started from Ao community during SC jamir tenure as CM

Promoting tribalism

Vote for congress ❤ thats it simple

Over ase ho eto....
