This is why no one take you giluts seriously. If you want to attack Peter Obi. Read through the manifesto and look for loopholes. Not talking about pictures.

Did you see how the Obidientd analyzed and rubbished Bat manifesto? That's how it's done. Not talking about pictures.

Seems you are a local champion.

You've never really been anywhere hence your pedestrian notion of what a nation needs.
Pedestrian needs?

You are a citizen of a third world nation.
The nation with the highest number of the world's poor.
33 of your states is engulfed in floods.
Over 10 million of your children are out of school.

You have the highest maternal mortality rate in the world.

You shouldn't be voting if you don't know by now that 90% of your real needs are pedestrian according to first world's standards.

They would laugh at Tinubu in the UN when he tells them he is building Eko Atlantic, when half of the youths from Nigeria are in foreign embassies looking for asylum.

Lagos is "underdeveloped"? Lagos is Singapore and London while everywhere else in Nigeria is virtually Afghanistan.

Read and research more to rid yourself of ignorance and crippling bigotry.

The developments below are totally independent of anything to do with the FG and indicators of the strenght of Lagos and the work her administrators have done, from Tinubu onwards, to make the State the most attractive in Nigeria by far.

Stay in your upper Iweka to talk nonsense. If you have sense you will shun bigotry so Tinubu does for your for State what he has done for Lagos. Nothing to do with empty mouth and rhetoric. Lagos is gone. A different Country to Nigeria because of Tinubu. What is shown below is nothing. I show many more that are impressive and show the limitless potentials of Lagos because of he r exemplary leadership.

You lot can remain here letting bigotry define your existence or you can accept a Yoruba man is best to secure the future of your kids and their kids.

Flow of capital and human know-how is best in Lagos by far. Only Tinubu can replicate that across Nigeria as he has done in Lagos.

You are so myopic and very petty to think anybody that is against you or Tinubu is from Anambra or any other Eastern States.

Lagos is doing just fine thank you.

On the contrary, Anambra state is a slum with no hope out of the malaise.

You are quoting states under flood as if it doesn't happen in the advanced world.

Let us bet, today the first of November, 2022, houses in London would be run over by flood.

Watch how I would post it if you are in doubt.

Get over your bitterness about Lagos.

If one state in Nigeria is moving into the modern world, it is Lagos.

There is a reason Lagos is growing

LSTC and not BRT.

Lol. You tribalistic mischief-makers are never intelligent. Obidullards I call you is very apt.

BRT is not about buses alone. It is also about lanes that buses alone can use that allow them to get passengers where they wish to go quickly and efficiently in Lagos.

That is what Tinubu and Fashola's BRT drive was about in the most populous State where people need to be moved about quickly and innovatively.

Unless you can show exclusive bus lanes existed in the era that picture was taken in, when population of Lagos was likely 5 million or less, then shut your own thread down.

Coming here daily desperately trying to use deception and lies to discredit a Presidential candidate who has devised the most innovative and effective solution for his geographical jurisdiction, since 1999, is low of you guys and not the way to sell your candidate.

What you are doing just shows that you cannot promote your own choice based on their achievements and abilities.

National politics is not "Buhari is dead and replaced by Jubrin from Sudan" level of childishness. That rubbish is only effective in IPOB land SE.

Try harder OP.

So Tinubu made lagos because he included lane for brts?

That is the LSTC. It's not BRT. It has no priority lane to make it a rapid transit measure. It runs on the same lanes as other vehicles.

What were the earnings of a typical Lagos state worker like?

Did they have a scheme for home ownership?

People were trekking and using donkey’s when Lagos was the capital of Nigeria.

Please do not commit blasphemy against Tinubu.

HE DEVELOPED THE FORMER NIGERIAN CAPITAL CALLED LAGOS

He started it from the scratch when Lagos did not have a single building but bush everywhere and turned it to a mega city it is today, Kudos to the city builder

You are a very foolish human being

Lagos Island maternity Tinubu built remains the epitome of health in Lagos which is being replicated across senatorial district in Lagos

Tinubu built the Lasuth the renowned tertiary healthcare institution.

Tinubu also built 5 millennium school

Free education n first gov to pay WAEC for an entire state. Till this 2022 the Pandora kleptomaniac oloriburuku criminal this clown claim is beta than Tinubu didnot offer free education in either primary or secondary schools with the oloriburuku Peter Obi declaring that education is not for the poor after he increase state university fee by over 800%

Tinubu built the following estate even when Obasanjo withheld LGA fund for good 8 years.

Abraham Adesanya Estate Ajah
Oba Adeyinka Estate Lekki
Ibeshe low income housing scheme
Gbagada Medium Housing scheme
Ojokoro Millennium Housing scheme
Alaagba low income housing scheme
Ayangburen phase 2 Ikorodu ( my home town)
Ok Eletu, Oko Oba low housing scheme among others


You talked about what Babangida built as military dictator to a Tinubu that Obasanjo denied federal allocation. I would have loaded your wretched Igbo miserable life with what Tinubu built if my response was on first page but am at work now n will catch you one day.

This is not the first time you'll be doing so, and I'm sorry, I don't roll like that; I am a Christian.

You can go ahead to tell us whether you live in Lagos State, though, or if you leave there to travel to other places from time to time, because you've been throwing your life's trajectory all over this thread, make efribodi sha see say you be educated buffoon wey dey speak English and wear suit like your master, lmao.

Go ahead, regale us.

Stop answering that dunce. He keeps blabbling about "intelligent, bigotry, effective, political" mumbo jumbo.

And with the way he is even hyping this "Lagos state" and "Tinubu's masterpiece", you would think Lagos is bigger or the same as Dubia. Lagos state is not even bigger in development than Nairobi but the urchins here won't let us rest because Tinubu want to become a president.

He keeps stating wrong facts and points in order to still stick to the argument even got to the part where he started asking you whether you stay in Lagos or any SW states because he presumes that the only reason people are coming to Lagos state state is because every other States in Nigeria are in bad shapes. He even claimed that Lagos state is the most populous state in Nigeria with 23 million people.

Lol grin where did he get that fact and data from ? So much for someone who presumes that he is more intellectual than every other person opposing his opinion.

This country sef.

Olden days come look more developed than the so-called 21st century. Are we moving backward or forward?

See as everywhere clean, organised. There's literally no much difference in the infrastructures and technology of those era (pre-1999 Nigeria) from that of the industrialised worlds of today to me, but somehow, somewhere we got it wrong, smh, and we're here still grappling with the second industrial revolution, and attempting to integrate into the third one.

And some may attribute those erstwhile growth to the military government, but are the developed countries of today necessarily the way they are under a dictatorship?

I just pray we get it right with Peter Obi, because if his drafted manifesto is anything to go by, I am impressed with and looking forward to him solving these issues and simultaneously launching us into the fourth industrial revolution.

It is honestly so very promising, and bubbling with high hopes (for everything about ourselves and our welfare).

God bless PO, and God bless and keep the country in one piece enough 'till the new wave of change blows hither.

Oga do you know what makes a bus BRT? It's the special section of roads carved out for it to speed its movement. Would you call the El-Rufai buses in Abuja BRTs?

BRT aren't just buses its a system, and no other metro bus system in Nigeria can be compared to it. It's a novel idea (in Nigeria)

Lawd. Nigeria has a long way to go. You have issues with my factual correction of the OP's deception but you do not see anything wrong with someone presenting a neat bus in 1960, or thereabout, as "BRT"?

I think we all really need to support regional governance passionately. It is going to be hard to save a nation where people have grown so disdainful of each other that some will call daytime night just to spite others they are opposed to.
