alj harem: shocked shocked Do you not see the in CORRUPTION FOUND IN OGA TINUBU ?

Oga Tinubu is not in power in Lagos, yet you are praying for PDP to win Lagos because of Tinubu. You are essentially campaigning for the PDP, a party that houses the biggest crooks in the history of the country(IBB, OBJ, Abdusalam, Atiku, Anenih, OGD, Peter Odili, Ibori, Uba, Bode george etc)to replace ACN because of one man(Tinubu). Some of these guys have even ruled Nigeria with track record of unimaginable corruption cases.

How logical is that? You are being mischievious here. Come out from the closet.

His obsession with Tinubu is very disappointing because it is the type that destroys objectivity entirely. Due to the hatred of one man, Lagos should go into the hands of the PDP? Lagos PDP chapter is nothing but pure evil.

Also, there are so many infrastructural initiatives coming on board in the next few years that will make Lagos a vastly improved State. Should all that be put at risk because of the unthinking hatred of Tinubu? I can only ascribe it to how we Nigerians, in culture, are indoctrinated to worship/fear/deify single individuals and entities unreasonably.

Sending the "Nest of Killers" away from the SW is no mean feat at all. Besides, I appreciate the crop of leaders ACN as a party presents.

Hate him or love him, TINUBU is a giant as far as Nigerian politics is concerned.

For those f00ls crying that he's corrupt, you're just in other words telling the world that the PDP-led federal govt lacks the will and desire to fight corruption.

Tinubu carry go joor!! Haters can go and boil stones..... grin grin
Re: Oyo, Osun Appoint Bola Ahmed Tinubu As LAUTECH Chancellor by edogirl2: 11:46am On Oct 29, 2012
At the end of the day, Tinubu's achievement in orchestrating the chasing away of Akala, Gbenga Daniel, Igbinedion and their likes, and standing up single handedly to wrestle the South-west from mighty PDP (with their massive federal slush funds) makes him the greatest political achiever in Yoruba land since Awolowo.

I get cold sweat when I think of Lagos in the hands of another PDP Akala or Mr Daniel.

That said, I believe the sheer might, persistence, and overwhelming financial advantage of the PDP, combined with the almost passive, easily-manipulated disposition of some Yorubas, particularly some of the nairaland types (who easily fall for all kinds of PDP and nairaland propaganda) will bring him down eventually. You can only fight alone for so long.

It is arguable that a Yorubaland without a strong, almost indefatigable political leader like Tinubu, will stumble into irrelevance very quickly. A bunch of seventy something year olds in Afenifere issuing press releases from their retirement abodes in Ondo state will be easy breakfast for the PDP juggernaut. In today's Nigeria, to be heard, you have to shout loud and if necessary fight and better still, fight dirty. Yorubas are generally not known to be as strong headed as the other groups (sorry I dislike that word 'tribe') and I fear, in the Nigerian context, they will fall by the way side quickly without strong leadership.

Mr Tinubu is an imperfect, yet, unique man for these times. But he needs to change some of his overbearing leadership ways fast, and democratise (to a good extent) the internal workings of the party. To ignore all the warning signs and plod along arrogantly will be a big mistake.

When he finally falls (as he eventually will), PDP will be the biggest winner, and I imagine they will hoist their flags up high in celebration and in anticipation of a new colonisation of Yorubaland. Then, important decisions about development in Yorubaland will be taken not in Abeokuta, Lagos or Oshogbo, but by men from other parts of the country who are foreign to this great land and culture, and who will promote and protect their own ethnic agenda before yours. Then, you are on your own - weak, mocked, and left feeling inconsolable.

Rather than succumbing to the temptation of joining the mob in lynching Mr Tinubu, what the Southwest should do is to find a way to rally round and build on the ACN value proposition - which I believe serves your collective interest better than anything the PDP offers. This will require remodelling the party into a genuine people's party, with a new leadership structure, in which young dynamic minds are brought into the leadership, and Mr Tinubu becomes a less visible, almost ceremonial leader. He is a proven political warrior, so it will be necessary for him to continue in a leadership position, but no longer a super dominant one. When all is said and done, the overwhelming majority of the politicians in this country are of shady character, and it requires a certain type to prosper amongst them. That is one of the reasons I am not convinced that someone like Fashola can successfully lead a big party like the ACN.

Mr Tinubu plays dirty, but the PDP plays even dirtier. The South west needed him and he delivered.


When Yoruba's political history is told in years to come, his legendary defeat of the mighty PDP in the South west will register as one of the greatest political achievements of any Yoruba man.

The Chancellorship of a University is the least he deserves, though if I were in his position, I would have declined the gesture. It just smirks of unnecessary partisanship. This is another example where he does something that makes you wonder if he has good advisers around him.

Mr Tinubu is a flawed man, I know. But he remains my super hero for banishing PDP from this great land of hope and glory.

My brother, the truth is that a lot of Nigerians are hateful in disposition. Is Tinubu the biggest of our problems currently? How many politicians, far more deleterious because they are currently active, are under the spotlight as Tinubu is? This speaks volumes about how pathetically unsophisticated Nigerians are politically. I.e obsess about those with no official power to make change while we ignore the antics of those who are currently misruling our Nation with the powerful office they occupy.

There is an element of ethnic hatred to the whole Tinubu obsession as well with how the most vociferous and hypocritical critics of Tinubu, as we discern from this forum, are people not from the SW and motivated by nothing other than ethnic bigotry. They see the speck in the eyes of others and ignore the boulder in their own. There is no region without Tinubu-like leaders. The difference is that non are a force for good as Tinubu is. How many talented leaders, proven beyond doubt by their history and CV, are the OBJs, Odilis, Orji Kalus, IBB's, Anenih, Atikus, Ciromas et al supporting? Yet it is "Tinubu" on the lips of these hypocritical charlatans.

Has OBJ, Anenih, IBB, Atiku, Odili and other PDP 'monsters' ever faced a day in Court like Tinubu has? Tinubu will always be pragmatically accepted by balanced Yorubas as a product of the 'system' who still manages to do good for his people while others (like OBJ, Odili, Anenih, IBB, et al) are malevolent totally.
