He must have a very strong footing with Tinubu. He will perform, though.

solomon111: I think PDP is slacking in lagos.
Lagos is one of the easiest states for PDP to win,if they are smart enough.

In fact, I can work for free as a political/electoral strategy consultant for the PDP in Lagos, and I guarantee that if my blueprint is followed, the party would record a landslide victory at the polls. You need to interact with common people all over Lagos surburbs (the same people who would vote on election day) to understand just how unpopular Fashola and his gang of elitist thieves in the ACN have become in the state. If the PDP fails to win Lagos in 2015, the party should be disbanded.

Let us view this in perspective.
Name one person that would emerge as Governor under ACN that will not be labeled a Tinubu boy.
Even if the whole of Lagos choose the candidate s/he would still be called Tinubu stooge.
I want progress in Lagos. A continuous one.
PDP and ACN should come out with there best.
Clean record, Articulate mind and smart stakeholders.

Once you emerge from ACN be prepared to be called imposition. Sorry ...
Politics is making your opposition appear worse than you are.

As for those who keep calling all Nigerian leaders thieves. The structure of Nigeria is imbalanced. Senator earns billions in four years including the unconstitutional constituency allowance created by PDP to appease themselves.

Show me a perfect man born of a woman....
God bless Nigeria!

Akson man: [size=13pt]All PDP needs to do is to scout for a seasoned,well trained professional and 'Christian' lagosian candidate. If PDP's 'Christian' candidate is not assassinated like they did to Funsho Williams,then in 2015 PDP will surely give ACN/APC a good battle.

Secondly,PDP's propaganda machinery should by now be compiling all Lagos investments linked directly or indirectly to Tinubu, starting with the illegal collection of taxes and levies from Lagos market women...as election draws near,they massively spread the word.[/size]

"Divide and Rule" does work like a charm
the seasoned professional and Christian governors ruling in other states are they any less worse than their Muslim counterparts? when will your likes see beyond religion?
Mind you Lagos reasons differently, so away with all these your biscuit politics. sad

Mind you most of those people aware of PDP misrule for 8yrs in Ogun State and now seeing what AMosun and the other ACN Governors are doing. I can bet my life that in 2015 Amosun will win Ogun state with landslide victory for Job well done in Ilo Awela to Oju-ore road and also in Sango and other part of the state.

Answer this simple question dude. If you, as a person want to vote and you have a candidate who has proven himself in the few years he has governed, and you have another person whose party has proven time and time again that they are just a bunch of rogues who don't have the good of people at heart, who would you vote for? And what the blazes are you too talking about? Are we not in a democratic era? Continuity at the expense of democracy indeed.

Re: Hamzat In Pole Position To Succeed Fashola by Nobody: 2:09pm On Jul 09, 2013
How come 100% of those against this selection aren't from Lagos and most of them have no stake in the state?

I need people like Alh_harem, Desola, Kats, Ola one, Tony Spike, Dudu_negro et al's opinion on this.

However, I'll support anyone that can reduce the population of Lagos by at least 50%. Most of the people in the state shouldn't be there in the first place. A state as small as Lagos carrying the burden of 5 states is just unacceptable, to be honest.

London
Size = 1,570 km²
Population: 8.174 million
Popular opinion = overpopulated


Lagos
Size = 999.6 km²
Population: about 20 million

Re: Hamzat In Pole Position To Succeed Fashola by munky(m): 2:10pm On Jul 09, 2013
Everywhere in the World candidates are presented to the public via a democratic system of primaries. It is left for the public to decide if they buy the idea of a certain candidate becoming the next governor of a state. Parties would always act in their own interest. The democrats in the US would never endorse a republican even if the said republican is far more qualified than their own candidate. So if you don't like Action Congress' choice, you can always vote for the opposition. So there is nothing like an imposition of candidate.

I assume you think election in Nigeria will follow a scientific rational. Lagos has over 10 million voters, if intelligence is to come to play, why should ACN not continue to win Lagos? Tinubu is the only bias I see.
ACN has plan for future Lagos and we all know.
Elite, Elite, Elite ....
If you earn all 90 % of your taxes from VI and co.
Then you should fix those roads and amenities around that area first.
That was the rational for 13% Derivation.

Residential area will come along.

common people? My friend do not trust the words a common man tells you in Lagos. the common Okada man against Tinubu voted his stooge in twice. talking to people in Lagos is different from the politics that runs in Lagos. Except of course you are just a free volunteer for PDP, you have no how things run within those small market groups, family connections, history connections etc. what do you know if you are not a Lagosian?

Gbawe:



You guys are simply amazing. This is a chap who has worked with Fashola for several years and is an outstanding intellectual and technocrat. Yet all you allow yourself to see is the name Tinubu. Na wa sha.

If you know better qualified candidates, why not suggests them since it is very obvious to even a 3 year old that every ACN candidate will be labelled a "Tinubu stooge" by you "damned if you do damned if you don't" thinkers. Perhaps the ACN should go and get their candidate from the PDP to satisfy folks like you that their guber representative is not a "Tinubu stooge".

The man qualifies professionally, academically and by virtue of being one of those who has worked closely with Fashola in an important portfolio as commissioner of works and infrastructure. Yet all that does not matter to you guys. Only to rant and invoke the name Tinubu when you cannot actually question the professional/academic credentials, directly relevant work experience and suitability of Hamzat.

Can any of you show, focused on merit and not your ALUU-style lynch mob proclivity, that Hamzat is not suitable to replace Fashola?

Many of you obviously don't know the meaning of imposition talk less what politics truly is.

The electorates imposes candidiates with their votes at the polls, not the other way around.

Who cares anyway, you are all irrelevant because it's up to the people of Lagos state to decide and regardless who they end up with, he or she is going to be another winner like Fahsola simply because of they have many skilled and telented administrators to pick from.

I really don't seem to understand all the fuss about imposition. Till date we don't operate a one-party system in Nigeria, so when its election time come 2015, you are free to use your mandate to choose your preferred successor. I have been bored by you noise makers regards slandering Tinubu. An adage says 'There's no way we will walk without our head shaking'. But he has tried his best when he was Governor and he even did to us more good by suggesting to us a reputable man in Fashola who still had to be chosen by the the populace via voting. So you all are free to vote for any party of your choice. For me i know too well that ACN is a better party in the selection of people with will and purpose as its been evident in their doings in south-western states.

GEJ is the president of Nigeria and everyone has a right to talk about him. Anyway, it's not about where the people posting comments are from, it's about their post pattern, their greed, and innate hatred for everything Yoruba. These people are just being indirect, their real intention is to see someone from their part of the country lord over Lagos.

You've got someone calling Fashola an elitist, yet he's the biggest supporter of GEJ and Iweala on this forum. Two failures who haven't achieved 1/10000th of what Fashola has achieved. A GEJ that has brought Nigeria to its kneels. And an Iweala who has been in-charge of our money for more than 10 years now(during the OBJ's time and now), yet has been a failure.

These people are snakes and they have ulterior motives. I can't stand them!
