stanbiggi: When u are critic of the govt in power they have away of messing u up. By putting u in the platform to dine and wine and see what they see. Now he is anointed let see his transformation if he gets there watch..... I am laughing

Gbawe:

People like you are funny. When crooks held sway everywhere you demanded the presence of 'good guys' in our politics as the solution. Now that the good guys are actually making their way into politics and winning, under a new Party Gani Fawehinmi and Ken Saro-Wiwa can only applaud today as a way forward were they alive, you are still cynical and needlessly negative. What exactly do you people want? Perhaps we should endure with crooks, mediocrity and hopelessness then.

emk4lif: Keyamo is obviously the best candidate but he has no chance at winning, I am from delta state and I can tell you it is a straight battle between ighoyota amori of PDP and ede dafinone of DPP, keyamo would end up a distant third, that's the sad reality of politics in the niger delta

solomon111: See this paid hack.
Why not go and tell the people of nasarawa state that APC which is currently in charge of their state is the hope they need.
They would probably lynch you.
Keep deceiving yourself that the political parties are different.
Nigerians should Vote for the individuals they want irrespective of party affiliations.

Keyamu is a loud-mouthed, notice-me, fame-seeker.
He bad mouths almost everyone except himself just to get noticed.
He has and still talks bad of Chief Gani even in death, a man well respected and honored even by the high and low of the society.

I am from Delta State and i know Keyamu is not electable. This is the simple truth!
