kaorama: Y is this man embarrassing Yoruba people? Will you stop your repellent bigotry for a second and acknowledge the pragmatic truth? Tinubu is simply a character operating in his time. If I had a dollar for every time Nigerians plead for the Jerry Rawlings solution then I would be a very rich man. If we agree that Jerry Rawlings was a flawed man and 'monster' of his time who dealt with his own kind to enable the new cadre of leaders now transforming Ghana to emerge (like Kuffour, Atta-Mills and now Mahama) what exactly is Tinubu doing opposite to that? Would Oshiomole have a chance , against Anenih and the PDP, if Tinubu did not put his platform and finance behind him? Where would Fashola, Fayemi, Ajimobi, Amosun and Aregbesola be if Tinubu was not behind them and OBJ was the uber power broker in the SW? How about the Ondo election that saw the ACN present a former NBA chairmans as its candidate? Presidential elections nko? Ribadu and Fola Adeolu? Do some even appreciate what is going on and how the likes of Ghana and Botswana they praise got to where they are today? Tinubu, almost like for like, is replicating what happened in those places that has led to the current climate today that is amenable to good leaders and proven achievers transforming those Nations for the better. This is where Nigerians keep getting it wrong. Many are too sentimental, bigoted and biased to see what matters. There are men like Tinubu throughout Nigeria because our politics, very corrupt and 'rough' currently, can only ensure it is those strong guys who get to the top, and stay at the top, as godfathers and kingmakers. Yet like Rawlings, Tinubu is the only one acting in ways that will ensure a better cadre of leaders replace him and others for the benefit of his region and Nigeria. People, ignorant of world history, and totally into self-deceit, can keep hating Tinubu but intelligent folks appreciate him and know he will be even more revered in future because of how, even with innate flaws, he is promoting the Fashola,s, Oshiomhole et al while GEJ , for example, is seeking out old relics like Anenih, Tukur and taking his own region backwards via empowering semi-illiterate militants everywhere. As someone from the SW and a student of contemporary political history, especially vis a vis the path other Nations have followed to get where they are today, I am very happy the SW has a Tinubu delivering a system that bodes very well for the future with how it accommodates and empowers human talent and merits. Contrast this with GEJ making militants the richest and most politically influential in his region of origin. [size=14pt]Leaders and winners in life don't do childish idealism. They deal with reality and the best that can be obtained from a bad situation till things improve and evolve.[/size] Many Nigerians , till lowered into their graves, will remain too sentimental and blind to see what is terribly obvious. For the times he is operating in, with everyone corrupt and self-serving, Tinubu is perhaps the best political godfathers in Nigeria. It is the same as how Nigerians know little of how Rawlings, in reality, was corrupt and brutal yet praise his 'culling' exercise vacuously while not realising Tinubu is carrying out same bloodlessly in Nigeria. It is mainly silly idealist , not conversant with the reality of Nigeria, and bigots, with perpetual axe to grind against a perceived 'strong man' of an ethnic group they detest, who continue to obsess over attacking Tinubu. I personally do not view him as a saint but his importance will be obvious to the SW in 10 years time the same way Nigerians fatuously praise Rawlings as being responsible for what Ghana is today. What did Rawlings (not at all a saint) do to eternal praises from even Nigerians if not pave the way for a better calibre of leaders to replace himself and others? What is Tinubu , also not a saint, doing? Abeg, Tinubu is in a different league to GEJ, IBB, OBJ, Anenih et al considering what Nigeria is. People can curse and rant against him. Those who note history and understand evolution can be delayed but not denied know the benefit of Tinubu. 7 Likes |

it is very clear that some people are praising GEJ for no reason,i am not saying tinibu is a curupt free man,tinibu was know as a merely gov of a state far back 1999- 2007 ,he is not a national leader,he did not done enough in his time and can never dictate to nigerians ,i think he should ve been quiet ,and it is not adviceable to begin singing of songs of praise of GEJ for little that he had done ,look at the society today,disaster every where,curruption at the highest level,unemployment is taking 65%of the total population,poor infastrutural development,insecurity,dont you know this country is almost turning to syria?if all this problem are not quickly address ,nigeria can never abtain their 2020 vision |

PointB: Coming from a certificate forger, an ordinary that should be rotting in jail. Nigeria is sick. If Tinubu is a thief or a bad leader, wat are your evidences to back up ur claims. U don't just criticise one without an evidence. Tinubu is right on his speech whether you like it or not. |

Of Course!!! Goodluck Jonathan is a rouge, a criminal, a brigand, a ruffian and a fraud who should be behind bars given his role in the criminal theft that characterised the Alams regime where he was the deputy. In a sane society, should such a brigand rise to become the leader of the country? I weep for my country, the case is sad, very sad, it is indeed a tragedy. |

Don't know what all the drama is about... Obama averages about 44% approval rating Cameron same or less... GEJ is not that president that will transform Nigeria, he is merely keeping the seat warm for the next 'ruler' he'll keep promising and under delivering and will retire a rich and powerful man...

Let us not condemn the messenger over the salient message that he averred. Truth be told, every well meaning Nigerian can admit that what the strong man of SW politics has said is the damning truth. On another platform we can discuss Tinubu's sainthood and piety but right here and right now the man hit the nail on the head real hard. Merry Christmas to you all as you reflect. |

onyewec3: Who is the fool here? Almost all of you shout Fasola to high heavens without conceding same Fasola did not fall from sky. Someone did the succession planning. Tinubu laid the foundation of Fasola's administration and stood against the forces of darkness when Nigerian common sense would be to defect to PDP and coast home with lucrative contracts. IF GEJ could appoint Annenih, a complete dead wood with abysmal public record, one could only have imagined what Asiwaju gave away to tread the path of honour. GEJ is a failure. The security of the nation has worsen dramatically under his watch. Corruption has become an industry with GEJ himself being the Chief Executive officer. He continues to appoint dead woods, never do goods, to champion a thoroughly deceitful transformation agenda. There is not a single promise that has been fulfilled. Cost of living is rising astronomically while standard of living continues to take a downward spiral. The president himself is a perfect example of what a president should not be. He can't mouth coherent responses to simple questions. He is neither presidential in outlook nor in carriage. A stoner in chief, a president that pronounced cutlery as catlarry on national broadcast, an irredeemably corrupt president with a heavy share from illegal Malabu oil deals, with his wife holding a position obtained through fraudulent political abracadabra. He's as confused as deceitful. Today, we are negotiating with Boko Haram, tomorrow we are not. A day after we are talking via back channels. What a completely confused president. A president who lies with ease. He once told the nation that TI rated his highly corrupt administration as second best to US in combating corruption, that from a president who does not give a damn about waging war against corruption. What's even there to talk about? A president who ex-convict is his mentor. Fool, read about Tinubu below and his efforts as Governor A brief journey back into the fiscal, physical, economic and social conditions of Lagos some 13 years ago will reveal the following: a city buried in heaps of rubbish, a city almost swallowed up in crime, a people choked up in traffic, millions of unemployed youths, thousands of area boys on the prowl, decaying infrastructure, dwindling internally generated revenue and a city of over 12 million with hopelessly bad and damaged roads. The armed bandits also ruled the day and night. Lagos was Nigeria’s nemesis. Everyone loved Lagos, but no one, not past military and civilian governors could do anything about it. Not even the federal government was willing to tackle the problems of Lagos. The narrative of Lagos was that of an abandoned and neglected former capital city which had become a no man’s land. http://pointblanknews.com/pbn/articles-opinions/tinubu-meet-the-pathfinder-for-the-development-of-lagos/ 1 Like |

Billyonaire: It is the height of immaturity for any Politician not to just wish Nigerians Happy Birthday but to use it as a medium of Press conference to remind us of the mess that their contemporaries has put us for about 52yrs now. Tinubu, we do not want to be reminded of our wahala, we just wanna have Xmas with peace of mind, freedom of sincere thoughts without being reminded that we need to pay toll to go see our friends at Ajah even when we do not know where the Federal Allocation for 6 yrs has been.somebody must continually remind our dundees in power that we are suffering, and no better person to do that than opposition politician like Tinubu.

Who is Tinubu to talk of GEJ failing the Nigerian people? Has he finished raping Lagos state? Or is He thinking of raping Nigeria as a whole?what did he achieve in his 8years of ruling Lagos state?is it building roads and selling right to use the road to Nigerian's,under the guise of tolling,or is it the criminal acquisition of Lagos state choice properties in choice locations around the state,or moreso,is it the blatant looting of the Lagos treasury. Ordinary common criminal! His like's belong in jail.That's the problem with Nigeria,thieves in sheep clothing always think they can mislead Nigerian's. Wait We are coming! |
