Can the nation newspaper write any damning article about Nigerian governors without mentioning Ogun state? All this propaganda against Amosun just because Tinubu wants to impose Yayi on the people of Ogun will fail. They couldn't even list the alleged white elephant projects in Ogun yet they joined Ogun there just to taint Amosun. SIA has done well and he is the leader of APC in Ogun state. If tinubu is desperate for Yayi to become governor then he can make him governor of Lagos after Ambode. 40 Likes 4 Shares |

No. 8. Benue state. From the International Hotel (Sheraton Hotel) to the Makurdi Gulf Course, to the now Cargo Airport, it has been one big ol wrinkled white elephant after another. Ortom takes the crown though. Dude's incompetence and fraud personified. 28 Likes 1 Share |

I will not waste my time masturbating on this topic. My teacher once told me that " it is not enough to know, you must take action". It is an open secret that politicians steal but what can we do to stop them? There are missing funds announced daily on tv and mass media's but what have we done with that information? We should Grab the future now. Stop complaining and mobilise people to take back Nigeria 26 Likes 4 Shares |

Nigeria Complain when they have the key to their problems. 180 million people complaining about a handful of people. Shame. A single individual cannot finish food cooked by the whole community. There is strength in numbers. If we unite everything will fall into place. Politicians have a different definition of unity. They make us believe that we are powerless. That's a lie. Without support from some people they are useless. It is this people we should go after. If Ghandi can cripple the british empire by boycott, we too can boycott our government. If we don't do something the cycle will continue 69 Likes 9 Shares |

Nigerian Governors are mostly criminals. Imagine Aregberascal want to build an airport a year to the end of his tenure..what he couldn't achieve in 7ys!! That how most of them do, building white elephant projects that won't add any effects to the state economy. Asaba airport is there, yet I wonder how many planes land there week in week out yet almost all the roads in delta state are dead trap. apart from Ambode all other governors are criminals or are we to talk of the one that build Christmas tree together with Zuma statue at almost a billion naira. Fayose wants to build airport yet he couldn't pay workers salary or Yahaya Bello that prefers to use the workers salaries to recall Dino Melaye instead of paying them for their monthly sufferings and sweat. I just Hop the eyes of the youths will open one day,by the time one of these rogues is used as a scape goat,others will buckle up a bit. 33 Likes 4 Shares

Chrisbeks: The Abeokuta-Sagamu N60 billion 10 lane is a good example of a white Elephant project. Amosun needs to drop this "Gbogbo e la ma se" nonsense and focus more on completing the numerous road projects in Ogun State As per, YAYI, Was Amosun not imposed by Tinubu? Osoba almost succeeded in frustrating Amosun out of the defunct Acn prior to the 2011 elections. If at all there is any media war between Amosun and Tinubu... Then Expect Amosun to lose woefully... Amosun is too arrogant and he talk carelessly too. Tinubu has not even said anything about YAYI's ambition.. . Amosun has increased the Popularity of YAYI in Ogun state with his careless talks about YAYI being a lagos boy.... Is Amosun himself not a lagos boy? 80% of Amosun's Commissioners are from lagos but indigenes of Ogun state But in reality nobody cares as long as you deliver. 41 Likes |

And the folks who spent these amount are still holding political offices. We have a long way to go. We have leaders who all lack vision. I doubt if any Nigerian politician has a blueprint of viable projects he/she hopes to achieve while in office. Qatar, kuwait are all oil producing nation and keep making good use of their resources. In Nigeria, all our politicians think of is how to loot the nation dry. |
