1)However, yorubas are now a minority tribe in a Northern Dominated party. Wat will be your faith now as the SS/SE prepare to exit from Nigeria?


2) Lagos election was never about igbos but igbos was just a rally cry to gain votes of a bigot tribe. Can Ambode out perform Fashola? No! May Tinubu continue to enterprise and enrich himself, whilst u all(yorubas) remain his political thug. May AGBAJE type of yoruba man never cross ur path, just Tinubu Boyz. Amin!

What brand of weed did you take today? Please stop it, it's affecting ur way of reasoning.

Going by the Abraham Lincoln election formula, you should be running for President by next election.

Stop the hypocrisy. Ngige was named Babatunde by your people during the Anambra election, your elders even said he went to join amala party and awolowo people. You guys still call Rochas, Mallam rochas till today.

SW is not a place you can play the ethnic card, he lost the day he started distributing one anti Igbo fliers like Igbos are the only one that pay tax in Lagos. Okechukwu Jimi lost in his PU and local government, he should just forget about governing Lagos forever.

I smh.. embarassed embarassed embarassed

Jimi Agbaje! Jimi Agbaje!! Jimi Agbaje!!! How many times did i call you? Don't quit try again just one more time you will definitely get it right. Your first attempt you scored just 140000 votes while your second attempt your tally increased with over 400% scoring 650 something thousand votes dispute their rigging.
Jimi Agbaje try again you will definitely win next one, because there will be transfer of aggression of the masses on Lagos state if Buhari does not deliver according to his promise. Which i know he will definitely fail,!!!!!!! Agbaje Agbaje don't give up!!! Remember what happened in kogi and Benue state how GEJ lost cos they felt cheated and isolated.
Samething will happen to Buhari!!! sai Jimi Agbaje 2019!!!"!
Read the bolded.
And when he fails, what becomes of Nigeria for a good 4years? You sound so foolish! No apologies!

No. Ijesha. Non-Yorubas like me rejoiced too. My area is 95% APC.

Ijesha...The Surulere side or the Amuwo Odofin side?

You area being 95% APC would rejoice because 95% wanted APC. Same cannot be said in Ojo, Ajeromi, Orile Iganmu, Ajegunle, etc.

You ignore my valid points, why is Owelle called Mallam Rochas. Why is Chris called Babatunde Ngige During the Anambra election. Hypocrisy is bad.

Never say never Oga Jimi. .You never know what tomorrow might bring. I know it's hard to watch being cheated but that's the way of the World we find ourselves today. There's no justice. ..people take things by crook or nail. The PDP should come out more vicious and rugged than the APC in 2019. Violence is the only language the Ruling party understands

Good riddance - Omo Igbo Ogbanje.

Now let the APC governor settled.

Amuwo Odofin, Festac, Surulere, Ajeromi, Ajao Estate,Orile, Ajegunle and Iganmu. These areas need immediate regeneration and depopulation. We now need to ensure the Igbos are limited to a single area or part of Lagos so we can keep an eye on them.

A kind of Sabongari of Lagos.

Never should we allow any political representation of Yoruba people by non-Yorubas in the SW.

Exception being - They are married to a Yoruba person, they have a property here and their children are in Yorubaland. Finish.

Let Ambode give him a commissioner so that he can prove himself and his worth may be one day he can be picked as his successor.

Hmm I feel 4 im cry after stepping down his governorship 4 Tinubu den, under AC abi ACN abi wetn, same man is making it very difficult 4 im 2 become governor,

Am sure he would be wishing he neva stepped down den 4 Tinubu, well life is so unfair


Buh he shouldn't give up, no matter d trials

He couldn't have stepped down for Tinubu seeing that Tinubu became governor in 1999 under AD.

Agbaje, an unknown, contested under the newly formed AC but left in 2006 when it became obvious that Tinubu was going to ensure the primary victory of Fashola, his chief of staff. Agbaje contested under DPA but came 3rd behind Fashola and Obanikoro.

What is it with all the candidates PDP fielded this time?

I am supposed to be here mourning their losses yet I can't ignore my feelings of admiration for them.

Just look at what Jimi said up there. No sane human should fault that.

Even in loss, I feel like a victor.

God Bless The New PDP.
Based on our democratic tenets, gradually but steadily, we shall rebrand and re-possess the vision for a nation that the world looks up to, not some pawn to be toyed it.

On the contrary, what we are witnessing here is a good example of how human psychology works. When humans fail, I mean total failure where there is no place to run to, humility is the only available option. For example if a rich proud man looses his wealth he will most definitely become humble. Philosophers often talk about how power corrupts, it is the other side of the coin of this argument.

That's why people like me have always advocated for a type of system where incumbents are capable of loosing, once people realise the transient nature of power, they will be careful. So there is nothing like the new PDP, it's just a bunch of people that have realised the possibility of falling from grace to grass...a blessing to the common man on the street.

God bless NIGERIA.

The most important part is that he knows he'ld always have support as he aspires to succeed, irrespective of how many times he fails. Whenever he falls, he has something to break his fall, same way your parents fawn over you while you were learning how to work. You didn't learn how to walk at once, you fell many times and they broke your fall or cleaned you up.

That is 'living life.' You just don't realize it. Always seeking instant success.

Jimi Agbaje says he would not be running for
governor of Lagos state again.
He says having lost the first and the second time,
he would be seeking other ways to be of service
to people of the state.
“If I have run once and I have run twice and I
don’t get my way to be Governor, then I will find
another way to be of service to the people” he
told Channels TV
www.nigeriatell.com/news/lagosdecides2015-enoughisenough-i-will-not-be-running-for-governor-again-jimi-agbaje-declares#.VSte5TPTV_I

we shouldnt misquote him. it is the OP that is concluding that he wont be contesting. what he said is since governorship is a little far fetched, he would seek other means of service to the people. with all the the tinubu's fraud of lagos, lagosians still want to hold on. the election wasnt about development, it was about freedom. political fReedom, social fReedom, feedom of information, Freedom of expression, Freedom to exercise sTrenght, wisdom and skill and compete, freedom To choose and to be choosen.

i dont blame him, lagos citizens has shown that the prefer the tinubu style of governance. i personally wished we freed our selves from this tinubu grasp but its like many still prefer it else they would come out enmasse and vote. for another 4 to 8 years, we still have to do tinubu's bidding. forget all the nice comments of ambode, it is still what tinubu says.

none the less, i strongly encourage my role model JK not be deterred. age is no barrier, as long as he still has something to offer and availABle, in due time we will get there
