what did sanwo olu do before he became governor...? Druggie

Worked at Lagos State Building Control Agency in their leadership. Was on the Board of Lagbus. Special adviser to several Governors in Lagos State on Economic Development. Now can you enumerate like this what GRV has done in Lagos rather than a degree from MIT, cool swag and visiting Alaba International market and Amuwo Odofin several times during his campaign. I can bet it that if this guy enters he will alienate Yorubas in Lagos.

millionaireman:
Abuja refused Tinubu. A president of Nigeria must settle in Abuja, therefore must win 25% of Abuja votes, so says Nigeria's Constitution.
Tinubu did not win 25% of votes in Abuja.

This has been debunked time and time again. But Obidients are experts in perpetuating lies.

TOPCRUISE:
The man is just too outstanding. I pray he recover his mandate.

No be only recover. Obidients are delusional. This is why we mock them.

If you want to pratice homosexuality as long as the law in your country allows it then that is your preference. However, as related to what the bible says about homosexuality as a sin, they are clear and unambiguous

While that is a touching story the last thing I will believe is a politicians tears. Even Buhari cry pass this yet he end up showing us shege. The story may even have been made up. Politics na bastard

North Central is different from Core North (i.e NE and NW). Nigerians generally vote based on tribe.On the average, the farther you move away from your own region, the harder you have to work to get votes from there. Tinubu is a political genius. Sanwo-Olu may be screwed!

NinjaXmetahuman:
Simple.

And If you want to protest, sha don't do it anywhere in south west.

If Obidients want to burn down Ibo land, na dem sabi. No just near anyway like Lagos or Oyo or Osun or Ekiti or Kwara etc. We in SW are okay with the results. ..Maybe Obi can be President of Biafra or IPOB.lol. I don't know how PO intended to win Presidential election with SE votes alone. Is that not madness?

Tinubu don carry PDP/LP and Obedients Handicap. He is playing Presidential election game in Nigeria with 2 pads at the same time both home and away . Atiku will be cursing Peter Obi right now.

Urchins like me can't wait to enter Aso Rock soon and eat copious amounts of Agbado. It's our right

It just occured to me. A combination of A Yoruba President and an Northern vice within the current Nigerian geopolitical context is undefeatable

It is easy for you people to say "Lagos is No man's Land" and yes Lagos accommodates all. But many of the Igbos in Lagos especially the ones that are coming from deep Igbo land have a lot of "blending" to do. They need to integrate or keep quiet because they would not even tolerate other tribes in thier own region. Do Igbo even sell land to Yorubas within their community? Abeg make una free us. Yorubas are very accomodating and the typical Igbo is the most tribalisitic in Nigeria.In fact you are very clanish. It's only when they enter Lagos they start yelling "marginialization"

DO NOT TAKE THE YORUBAS' BENEVOLENCE IN LAGOS FOR STUPIDITY

No be this same man talk say na 5G dey cause COVID. He even brought a whiteboard and marker to explain how

The insults from this IPOB/Obidients is just getting too much. They are allowed to vote for Peter Obi because he is Ibo but anybody in Yoruba land voting for Tinubu that is a Yoruba Urchin or tribalistic. Make una continue. Una eyes go clear soon. This is democracy and everyone has a right to support who they like or even support nobody at all.

By now if you're still supporting Emefiele and his useless you either
1 ) A child of hate or
2)Your head is not correct

If you think that this policy will prevent politicians from vote buy then you must be delusional.

May this man never come near the presidency with his zero knowledge of the business world.

If you do zero transaction cost , how would the payment platform make money .

He has just killed the whole essence of new currency with his limited views , once kidnappers know of this , they will bounce back

This is the most stupid argument I have seen on the internet.In fact I saw Emefiele making this same argument about catching kidnappers as one of the reason for the currency change and I was flabbergasted that he will say such. I'm beginning to question his education and level of intelligence. This is the most insane thing I have heard in a long time. So if I may ask? If I was a kidnapper won't I just demand the new notes? What stops me from depositing my old notes using mules. I know you guys hate Tinubu but please try and use your brains. Peter Obi's reaction to the whole naira exchange thing shows that he is clearly not ready for this job of President. In fact GOD FORBID such a person.

This Peter Obi is a clown. Someone that is 61 years. It's not like he is macrons age mate or something😒

Good development.

They brought the Bible with their rules after removing controversial verses and chapters. They decided to embrace that which they find pertinent to théir society.

Any African that don't like it is free to go back to his own original religion. The owners have the right to bend the rules to favour them. No African can be more Anglican than the English . Let that sink in. In the nearest future, they may decide to bless and welcome those who marry animals. What can you do about it? They shoved it down your throat and will continue as they deem fit. Heck! They already convinced Africans that polygamy is illegal and immoral while homosexuality is perfect. And Africans cheered.

Oyinbo is always shifting the goal post to their benefit like VAR in world cup.

If I was a bank manager. I would happily swap 2 billion naira for maybe like 50 million and retire since meffy has decided to be crazy.

Lifeinbits:
For those of you thinking I am young, I am a 40 years old man while my girlfriend is 28 years old. We had some conversation this morning and it's so glaring that she wants me to go through the study route or try another country then she can come and join me. She said that going as a dependent means I want to settle for crumbs while i can also get the big bones. And I am insisting to her that it's doesn't matter even if F2 does not work, I can always do under the table job.

She is using you to find her admission. She will drop you once she gets there. Like you said she is 28 and 40. She sees you as a moneybag. The goose that lays the golden eggs. At 40 how easy is it to start going to school again. Even me in my mid 30s going to school. It's very though abeg.

99% of the people who apply for student visa in Nigeria have been getting rejected for some years now. This is an issue that most people know about. It has even attracted media attention many times.

As a rule, as a Nigerian, do not apply for USA visa. Getting rejected by US can create real roadblock when trying to get major European visa

Okay. One way that used to work then was to get an assistantship i.e scholarship from a professor which makes your chances higher. I don't know if that still works as it was long ago. Quite a number of Nigerians would come to the U.S with a student visa and then go off the grid after getting here to work under the table, greencard marriages etc and apparently U.S immigration caught on to that.

ModCaller:
7 years is ages ago.

The world has changed since then

People are still coming on student visa and getting Greencard. How long do you think it takes to get Greencard in the U.S through the student route. On the average you will spend atleast 5 years. 2 years of school say 1 year OPT and then 2 years for the Greencard to be filled. Some like me may even have it longer than 5 years. Most pple that come from Nigeria with papers after less than 5 years got it through marriage (either fake or real marriage).

ModCaller:
Only a Nigerian fool applies for US student visa.

Don't waste your money

I applied for U.S Student Visa 7 years ago. Brought my wife here after 2 years of getting there and she schooled here as well. Today we are both permanent resident and through the LEGAL route and without marrying Oyinbo. It was very very TOUGH to get to this point but thank God for everything he has done. We are not fools.

You think you have a girlfriend but you don't. She is just using you as a stepping stone to achieve her dreams. While you encourage her and support her mentally, physically and financially,she will drop you once she gets there. This is why she is not ready to commit to you so that it would be very easy over to break up with you. Someone that really loves you wont act like this. I'm also abroad and had a similar situation. Guy better start pursuing your own goals as well. This is 2023. The lady you call girlfriend is using your head and is not serious.

It's now convinient to attck the CBN.

Anybody fighting CORRUPTION in Nigeria is always vulnerable

Emefiele is fighting corruption? Bro you're a joker. It's amazing that some of you guys on the internet are so dull not to see that they are using your life to play politics. Is it the job of the CBN to prevent vote buying in election? Last last the ones that will buy the vote will still buy the vote. They will get the new notes first while your dull self will be queuing under canopy for new naira because Emefiele said so. Has Emefiele had one good policy in his life?

I dont know why CBN cannot extend the time for people to change their money by 3 months to 6 months. Our House of Assembly and Senate, what are they doing there if they can't call the President and CBN to order. All these problems are just uneeded. Is this the first time Nigeria is changing money? Emefiele and Buhari are very incompetent. Ofcourse we all know this already. Nigerians should not be the ones suffering for your stupid political games and gimmicks

.

Emefiele must go to jail for the 8 years of wrong CBN policies. This is all I want to see. He has made me and my fam lose money. He must smell Kirikiri

I keep saying it that this Emefiele is a dummy. Or he is following a script. Because I don't know how changing currency can be so difficult. Assuming they mandated this for a year to exchange all these old currency it will have been smooth sailing but Emefiele and Buhari are using Nigerian's suffering to play politics. No wonder he was contesting for president at some point. I've never seen a country where the CBN governor will be so involved in politics that he will contest for President in the primaries.

JAMO84:
I am not Disturbed by Buhari's holier than thou attitude towards this election, those that are remote - controlling him from their beer parlour will fail again, like they failed with endsars when they sent soldiers to toll gate, because they knew the senseless mob will blame it on Tinubu. Like they failed during the primary, they will fail again.


The governors are the heart of the party and they are solidly behind Tinubu. Buhari is done with APC, he doesn't care if the party sinks, but those who still need the party for their future ambition will not allow the party to die.

In Yoruba someone like Buhari is called "Odale" That is a very disloyal person. They are the worst sort of people. The same Buhari came to become the most useless president Nigeria has seen in our democracy on the same platform of this APC party that he is trying to destroy. The least he could do is to just provide a weak campaign for Tinubu who legitimately won the primaries but no as a very disloyal person he is engaging in Anti party activities. We can see their actions from a mile away. Sending soldiers to Lagos to threaten us here. We see you. Operation crocodile tears that you cried for almost a decade when you couldn't win under ANPP but needed Asiwaju's help. Nobody has the monopoly of madness. Mr Buhari your hometown is run by Bandits. Send soldiers there first. Thank you and Goodnight.

Back to his hometown in Irabiji . On his mandate we STAN. 🦇 BAT2023

Okay. So what should I do about this. You have left the main argument and resulted into cheap insults. You're beginning to sound incoherent.
