HOW MANY TIMES HAVE YOU HEARD OF BOKO HARAM OR BANDITS ATTACKING WITH IEDS ON CONVOYS IN NIGERIA

They attacked Buhari before he became President. Herdsmen attacked the Governor of Ondo State.

On this, I like Osun governor Oyetola, started from Aregbesola era, no long convoys and sirens.


With one ambulance and like 4 SUVs meant for security personnel and a coaster bus, guess what, Oyetola is even always in the coaster bus with many other people.

He probably learned that from Tinubu. Tinubu was always in the Coaster bus tagged ''Press Crew'' grin grin grin

EX- GOVERNOR PETER OBI IS TALKING ABOUT THE HUGE COST OF GOVERNANCE.

Most politicians are ignorantly or intentionally exploiting the system to be seen as BIG MEN in the society.

To me restructuring will address it.

The cost of Nigeria 's federalism is far too high.

Our House of Representatives members are refusing to accept INNOSON VEHICLE for their official function. That is unpatriotic act from the HONOURABLES.

How can Nigeria continue to grow industrially while the politicians are not prepared to make sacrifice.

I think Innoson should first make his cars ubiquitous in the SE. If Igbo people drive Innoson cars even in Lagos, it will inspire confidence. Others will relate better with the brand. I really expect Igbo people to massively patronize Innoson to push the brand.

What I really think is that some of you watch movies so much that you cannot separate fact from fiction.

Am sure because we have a history of not just choosing bad leaders, but creating and encouraging them

So who is 'the bad leader' and who is the good leader in this case?


The good leaders needs to find ways to make himself irresistibly electable.

These kinds to comments make me laugh hysterically.


People whether they are Igbos, Edos, Fulanis or Madinka don't spend their money simply on tribal sentiments but their spendings is largely influenced by economic judgements.

Innoson cars can't be bought en mass just because an Igboman is producing the cars.

Are the costs of these cars lower than Suzuki, Nissan, Mitsubishi or Mazda?

How about durability and strength? Spare parts? Second hand values?

D question u should have asked is "who is a good leader?" When u no who a good leader is, then u take those characteristics as a yardstick to decide for yourself who d bad leader is.

Before i share with u some wise words from d late Patrice Lumumba about d tragedy of Africa, how do u think that a good leader should "find ways to make himself irresistibly electable"?

Peter Obi is as senseless as the rest. He even had the guts to tell Nigerians how clueless he was as governor! 13 empty cars in a convoy of 22 cars?! Nigerians generally are political office illiterate. They get to power with opulence mindset and looting mentality.

no body prays for war but when it comes even the strong still falls, there's what some people call vehicular ballistic shield , if his car gets disabled, 2 or 3 backup cars intersect and create a shield, mostly 7.62 armoured or bomb shielded cars, and the target is swiched to a backup runner car.
this is some high tech sh*t next time try not to challenge what you don't know, simply ask questions with respect

He drives 22 cars around with 13 empty just as he has only one wrist watch but Nigerians have seen him with more than 10. Peter Obituary is a big fool.

If that man is a fool, what does that make your father that's not even fit to shine his shoes

Too many citizens have told first hand stories of that man's humbleness for it to be all fiction. Including him being on the same flight with me in regular cabin

But feel free to be stuck on the watch issue

Don't waste your time educating idiots and illiterates. Obi's predecessor as sitting Governor was kidnapped in that same Anambra state. That is the first and only state in which a sitting Governor was kidnapped. Probably Obi felt his life is worth less than 22 vehicles.

Most of them are illiterate traders who don't understand the concept of security and safety. That's why they need firetrucks from Delta state in the South South to extinguish fire in Anambra.


Those illiterates with multiple four storey buildings in Onitsha. I mean what do they know about security. It's not as if they have anything to live for or protect

I'm sure your father(the non illiterate) can afford to sit at the table of Anambra men. N teach them about security!

Charity starts from home.
Is Innoson's state Governor using an Innoson vehicle as his official car?

Even this Obi making noise, is he using Innoson?

Home is not Nigeria abi
Home is his region

This country is headed nowhere fast
It's unfortunate

wrong
I hope you know James bond was real and his name was dusco popov.

" Popov, a Serbian, pursued a doctorate in law at
the University of Freiburg before being arrested
and banished from Germany for bad-mouthing the
Third Reich. Danger was a stimulant for him, and
he eventually was recruited by British intelligence
for his sharp instincts, intuition and ruthlessness.
Popov's virtuoso skills seduced the Nazis as well,
and the British initially had him steal money from
them as part of a laundering scheme. In August
1941, Fleming was assigned to protect Britain's
financial investment — some $40,000 — and
observed first-hand what a great baccarat player
Popov was when he won an outrageous bet at the
Casino Estoril in Portugal. This, of course, inspired
the debut of Bond in Casino Royale.
That same month the Abwehr assigned Popov to
construct a spy network in the U.S. and to gather
intel on the defense installations at Pearl Harbor.
The British loaned him out to the FBI because J.
Edgar Hoover thought he could be useful in
weeding out German spies.
Popov came armed with proof that the Germans
were gathering information about an attack on
Pearl Harbor on behalf of the Japanese, using
Britain's successful aerial attack of Taranto, Italy,
in 1940 as tactical inspiration.
But Hoover, who disliked Popov's lifestyle, ignored
the warning about Pearl Harbor four months
before the devastating surprise attack. He never
told anyone, including President Franklin
Roosevelt, and after the attack spearheaded a
cover-up that lasted until 1972 when British
intelligence declassified the document.
Popov was crushed about Pearl Harbor, and his
cover was nearly blown when legendary New
York columnist (and Hoover friend) Walter
Winchell reported that he was cavorting with
actress Simone Simon (Cat People ), the love of
Popov's life.
The double-agent redeemed himself by convincing
the Nazis that the D-Day invasion was going to be
led by Gen. George Patton in Dover. Thus, the
Nazis were left vulnerable for the Normandy
invasion of June 6, 1944. The diversion was
further aided by the fact that the weather was
abysmal the day before.
The virtuoso spy pulled it off, knowing full well
that if he didn't, he'd be brutally tortured and
killed by the Nazis. Popov's courageous and cold-
blooded display served as further inspiration for
Bond"
don't dabble into discussions without facts, learn to be a man with integrity, show some respect to minds more advanced than yours, only then you will learn and become enlightened, ask questions instead,
a man with sand has no use to learning.

Obi is not patronising Innoson, Obiano is not using Innoson as his official car, yet you comedians want Buhari to use it. Doesn't charity start at home?

You making noise about, are you using an Innoson car as your personal vehicle? Hypocrites.

Teach who about security?
People who lack commonsense on the very basics of security and wealth protection?

Easy come, easy go. That's why their wealth doesn't last till the second generation. What fire doesn't destroy, their worthless kids destroy. Like Ojukwu, Like Ozumba, like Dozie, etc.
