emmysoftyou:which tinubu was a failure ? To you he was , what fasola built on was what tinubu had the foundation for already , check the records. Even obj knew tinubu was a strong contender as it concerns success. There is no way a failure can "handpick" a success. Check the records.there is a difference between birth and handpicking. |

majekdom2:The same thing I am always thinking. People are always dwelling on sentiments. (comparative/ethic/religious). It seems Nigerians don't want to even progress. When students undertake jamb examinations which are set at 50% pass mark. It is completely stupid for a student who failed to dwell on escuse of worse results from others. . What is our benchmark for good leadership given the resources available? Are we going to keep entertaining failure based on preceeding greater failures? Nigeria is in a crucial state that needs overhauling in many sectors not without starting from the bad blood of corruption, otherwise other efforts will eventually turn futile. 2 Likes |

Keluong:what do you expect when a government can say stealing is not corruption, when a young guy is into Internet fraud , it is termed "hustle " by some fellow Nigerians , in that case it is legal as long as they are not the ones affected. I personally have not found a way to deal with this mentality the youths have got. |
Re: The Truths Obasanjo Failed To Tell Nigerians. by Nobody: 8:26pm On Nov 23, 2014 |
youngeagle:it is known development is a gradual process, that's the saying used in place of incompetence here in Nigeria. There is a supposed to be a set target for a government. That's how successful businesses are run. you don't need to say this to convince people you are making development. Even some folks that have not been to Lagos agree , Lagos is moving based on whats seen and heard , that's what it is , success speak for itself . The truth is if the deeds of fasola and other notable governor was replicated at the federal level , the opposition can never be as strong as they are now. I am not apolitical , I talk based on merit, yes some PDP states are moving , same way "all "APC states are .freedom of speech is not a sign of development please , if we are not allowed to talk , we know what's right. Even as you claim baba was tough on speeches , did that allow him go for a third term. This is democracy . 1 Like |

majekdom2:[size=20] i still stand on my words... Failure can handpick a success.it s just that your president,obasanjo was not devoid of sentiment,he wanted to compensate the niger deltans,hence jonathan. If not because of that,he could have pick donald duke,odili or rochas.. But for compensation and to make them feel the sense of belonging.. Here comes the opportunist..jonathan..[/size] 1 Like |
Re: The Truths Obasanjo Failed To Tell Nigerians. by Nobody: 8:45pm On Nov 23, 2014 |
emmysoftyou:You are entitled to ur opinion, and you contradicting yourself .... duke , odili ,and even rochas are nigerdeltans. Rochas was not in PDP Tho. Duke said presidency or nothing , he was actually offered the vp position. I came across his fliers everyday in the punch newspaper then , thats how you know he is sound , I mean flyers not adverts. The truth is you can't perform where you never expected yourself. Jonathan never thought he would be there at that and this time. |

WTF is you point. please there is no other name to be given to injustice , if you like decorate it with different slangs.it is not because it is a southern man , obasanjo was a southern man. Are the APC states bad as you claim, not all PDP states are bad too, give me examples of the bad APC governors.. Go check the houses built by amosun for civil servants , Check out the roads and markets for businesses in oyo to curb street hawking. Check out osogbo for yourself and come tell me. Like I said if the fg did half of what some of these states did , the opposition won't be as strong as this. The fg should stop bragging with way PDP states tried to do , you hear them brag with akpabio and even amaechi deeds saying he did it under PDP. What rubbish . |
Re: The Truths Obasanjo Failed To Tell Nigerians. by Nobody: 9:32pm On Nov 23, 2014 |
PhockPhockMan:odili did not hand pick amaechi , there were votes, and we saw the differences that came from those votes nullifying his selection Earlier. Jonathan was never part of the "men" being considered. He was the last nigerdelta option for failed OBJ. OBj actually needed people he would keep controlling, he never kew his failure candidate was a rebel. It is just like the way babagindas made abacha deputy to shonekan not knowing abacha was a worst terror. |
Re: The Truths Obasanjo Failed To Tell Nigerians. by emmysoftyou: 9:34pm On Nov 23, 2014 |
majekdom2:who told yu rochas was not in pdp.anyway rochas was once obasanjo colleague in presidential aspirant via pdp primary election b4 obj was selected.. but after obj rules,rochas knew on time,he is not ready to give an igbo man the chance,the number one seat,so frm there he defected to another party,hence a governor today..the rest is history.. Anyway let s move on... It s well with nigeria.. |
Re: The Truths Obasanjo Failed To Tell Nigerians. by EmoBoy(m): 9:42pm On Nov 23, 2014 |
Obasanjo was the most hated politician in Nigeria during his administration. Unlike GEJ who has so many supporters especially in the south, Obasanjo was hated by practically all manner of Nigerians regardless of tribe and religion. Obasanjo's civilian government was so despotic that nigerians were saying they preferred Abacha's government to his government. For the same Obasanjo to open his mouth and criticise another human being regardless of the person's position is highly hypocritical. 1 Like |

emmysoftyou:Did OBJ merit anything? First in 1976, obj became head of state after his boss, Gen Murtala was killed in a coup. Then in 1999, OBJ became a democratic president as compensation to the SouthWest for the death of Abiola. Sadly, Obj wasted the free gifts of God and man on the alter of greed and selfishness. Without mincing words, OBJ is the biggest opportunist in Nigeria's history. 2 Likes |

PhockPhockMan:ok I see you and your likes are slow to comprehend and grasp information without someone needing to explain to you ,Just as it is for your boss upthere.Rochas had always decamped from one party to another was never new, right from 2003 , then 2005 to form AA or so before going back to PDP contesting in 2007 with yardau, and lost with an unimaginable margin.I guess you understand my writing he was not in " PDP tho " the other folks that guy mentioned have been real members of PDP from the beginning and even now, that was why at the last minute they all dropped to go with yardau except rochas..... Do you get it now or I still explain to you like a 3 year kid. . How many elections did rochas win under PDP. Would you regard him as an active member, tho he was special adviser of the party at sometime. 2 Likes |

Though I commend GEJ for completing the Total Radar Coverage of Nigeria project, the project was initiated by OBJ in 2003 when he signed a €15million contract. I believe the only area GEJ is miles ahead of OBJ is democratic temperament. Elections in Nigeria, particularly in PDP strongholds, are truly open contests. 1 Like |
