For me it is Donald Duke or Kingsley Moghalu. How I wish this guys can work togther

We need young and smart people with a vision to lead this country. Check out their profile and you will know why they are better. These are achievers in managing man and resources. I am done with all these old professional politicians.

Truly Ndi IGBO are taking over


1,2 and 3 are all igbo's
Thats massive

Taking over what?

You are the architect of your problems. The people of Imo state were hypnotized by your sugar coated tongue and the seemingly philanthropic gesture. They voted out Ohakim & PDP for you, hoping you will make Imo better. Instead of providing that needed direction and leadership, you started playing to the gallery to revealed you real intention in the first place, the ambition of the presidency. Then see you moved from APGA to APC, an unpopular party in the east " the party at the center". What has the politics of the "Party at the center" brought to Imo state? After embezzling funds in Imo state, you want to install your son in-law to cover up your track and you want people to clap for you. What about demolitions and reconstructions without proper planning or the ones that have remained uncompleted. I don't want to mention the salary & pension issues because that one is nationwide. 2019 election will be interesting.

I'm watching to see how Apc and Buhari will gather the required 25% from South East.


Any party contesting against the dull president should just feature a popular candidate from South East and end this calamitous administration for us.

This shows the lack of emotional intelligence in APC politician in the east. They have failed to utilize available occurrences in the east to their advantage, instead they have further pitched the people against Buhari. There is a way to manage these issues and get sympathy from the populace but Okorocha and others are actually doing otherwise. In this country we mostly vote by sentiment of tribe, religion and party or a combination of any of the three.

Calers:
They think Buhari is jonathan,apc have the machinary, forget rigging Buhari will defeat who ever contest against him.

Buhari will win because of the funds and machinery available to his disposal and not because he deserves it. He will win because other new contestant even though competent enough to lead do not have the wide reach. As for rigging, is under age voting not part of rigging?

This is the kind of leaders some Nigerians find pleasure to support. We need to put our search light on individuals in other parties, It will be beautiful for democracy to have different new parties win positions. PDP and APC has failed this country and the painful thing about the whole thing is that it's the same old persons that have been there all his while, so how do we expect to achieve positive changes?

FIFA is not Nigerian government. They follow laid down rules. So this government can be compelled to follow rules. Why allow this drama to fester for long if eventually we know we were going to accept FIFA position. Shame to this government and all the self destructive politics they have been playing with the lives and livelihood of Nigerians

How does this improve governance in Edo states. What was their basis for joining the party in the first place? misplaced priority.

The police and Nigerian government is just playing to the gallery and unwittingly attracting dislike in that part of the country. It won't harm any body if they head to the government house to registered there grievance and the governor or any other person receives them with a promise to convey their request to the FG. That is how it is done in advance world but no, our government will continue to apply same method of nation building that has never worked till date. Even though they are not exactly alike, Osinbajo went to the ND and had a dialogue with stakeholders and the result is the relate calmness we have over there today. That is the power dialogue.

Fatherofdragons:
leave that thing, the hate is there but the internet has created a platform to express it viciously.

The so called "hate" has always been there among tribes and religion, among governments. Do you think your neighboring countries or even the Asian or Caucasian investors love you so much, we all tolerate one another to live in peace. So emphasizing on word hate is just a waste of energy.

What I have learned about the Igbos and the Yorubas is that all this talk of hatred is only online, and is fueled by few online miscreant which does not represent real life relationship between the two tribes. Frankly speaking how many times, or when have you heard or seen in Lagos or any part of the country where these two tribes are engaged in general physical fight against one another. We have seen the mile 12 and Ife fights with Hausas and even before this, the OPC fight with Hausas but have not had any with the Igbos, so what is all this hate squabble about. Shouldn't we in the south and Nigeria as whole be more concerned on how to achieve the best that we can be? I see mostly kids, who seek to be politically correct based on their subjective understand of national issues. Disrespect to any tribe won't bring you happiness.

With the way APC and APC government has been acting lately, will Buhari peaceful handover power if defeated in the next election?

I see this man putting this country into crisis with the conduct and release of election result in 2019.

Rochas is doing everything possible to install Uche Nwosu as the next governor.

It baffles me how selfish these leaders seem to forget history and how some youth of today also line up behind these leaders who continuously rape the constitution and at large the masses. This could be from the fact that our educational system is no longer producing thinking minds and in additional to surreptitious removal of history from our education, thereby leaving the current set of Nigerian without the knowledge of the past. We seem to forget the various political upheaval in the western house of assembly that lead to military incursion of the 60s and the general election crisis in same west in the early 80s that let to the second military takeover. These political leaders should mind their tongue and actions and stop heating up the polity because any action not inline with constitution may result into crisis and the masses will bear the pains. For your information, we have only 2 parties in Nigeria; the politicians and the people, only during election do the politicians seem to be selfishly divided. The youth should open their minds and think and stop supporting these politicians blindly.

Since we don't give the right interviews, right questions at home, we will always demarket the country outside, as the foreign media don't have the time for rhetorics. It is Yes or no answer.

AdesegunSanni89:
How I wish PMB and APC will allow PYO to handle Saraki and confine him to the gallows where he belongs

There would have been harmony and understanding between the legislature and executive if the VP was the president. Democracy demands that you respect each other and dialogue on issues. You don't bring holier than thou , I and them attitude. That is the problem of Buhari right from inception. Always sitting on his high horse. You achieve alot without necessarily compromising your principles and that is what the VP is doing.

wristbangle:
Well, if given the chance, he will make a good president in coming years. No matter how this man is being criticise, he remains the most active VP in Nigerian history.

Enugu people seems to be free-minded individuals.

It is not about Osinbajo but the the seat he occupies as the VP. It should not have to be his party or person. But for his intelligence, he commands good will every where he goes which is what APC needed and not the style of that man who loves speaking to foreign press. I did not mention any body's name.

bjayx:
Nice one.
Congrats to the winner!
Politics is no do or die, let's imbibe the spirit of sportsmanship

win in your stronghold without problems but don't go to another's to win by all means. If only politicians will understand this.

Drakkernoir:
PDP, how market?

Buhari has always won in his enclave because he is worshipped there. The test of his popularity will come in 2019 general election , when Police and parties rigging network will be stretched. Note that alot of the populace who voted him in 2015 are not happy with his performance so far, unfortunately is the man to beat as I have not seen any person or political platform on ground to take the presidency away from him. Where are other fresh aspirants and their parties?

Premium times need to up their game to better serve the people especially now that election is just around the corner. Even though we all need to known these characters in our political life but it must be correct information. Basically APC and PDP has no difference either by ideology or personnel. the only difference is in modules operandi. APC is party of cronyism and PDP party of chop I chop. Both party are lawless but APC have taken it to another level. Imagine a party chairman talking like an agbero. Dogara is a gentleman and don't have a problem with anyone, just that his state governor worships the man in Aso rock.

A man whose campaign slogan was RESCUE MISSION and Imolite gave him the support needed, only for him to abandon good governance and accountability and start chasing about party politics just for his hidden ambition of becoming a president. He can only be president of his village union. They say charity begins at home. Instead of him to concentrate in mobilising development in his state and partner his fellow governors in the east irrespective of party line he is busy sowing seed of discord among his people so to be loved by non igbos. Let me see the people that will give him vote in Nigeria without a track record of performance as a state governor. Why is he insistent that he hand picked the next governor, to cover his financial dealing of imo state fund of course. He wants to remain relevant in imo politics till 2023. Keep messing around, 2019 is just around the corner.

Do unto others what you would others do unto you. This a simple biblical instructions which should guide humanity to peace. Tony what? Who is he? These are politicians of fortune. This man has suddenly forgotten so quickly the case of tambuwal and the similar cases in the second Republic. This is the type of people certain younger generation is listening to. Political jobbers who has not for one day contributed something positive to this country other than enjoying the patronage of every government in power. Well he knows his catchment area.

APC is loosing focus if the really have one. Instead of marketing their achievements so far to the electorate they are busy chasing Saraki and making the guy a hero. People have become wiser and will vote objectively in 2019 unlike in 2015 when most votes were to remove Jonathan. APC see PDP as the only challenger no thanks to the lack of activities by other parties and their aspirants.

With the way Osho baba and APC is going about this do or die politics, will APC gracefully accept and relinquish power in the center when when they loose in 2019?

HungerBAD:
This is starting to get childish.

Adam's Oshiomole said they will impeach Saraki,and then stop him from coming back to the Senate if he contests again.

There were no personal attacks in his words,as his statements were pure political statements.

For Saraki to descend so low as to bring a private conversation between himself and Adam's into the public arena, shows how mature he is. What if Adam's Oshiomole had approached you privately for support?people talk to each other privately,and that is where it ends.

I disagree. It is important that you snd I know what this people do behind the scene as it concerns us otherwise we will be left on our own. Let them keep exposing each other.

Roger3D:
APC should leave that traitor safari alone afterall he has but a few months left before he vacates the seat. Rather what the FG should do is distract the crook with an avalanche of new criminal cases in addition to using federal power to harass and intimidate him in the run up to the 2019 general election

Oya clap for yourself.

seunmsg:
Ortom is really trying hard to impress his new friends. Sadly, he's doing it in such a shameless manner. Benue state house of assembly was also on recess when Ortom and his supporters illegally reconvened and impeached the pro APC speaker. If he couldn't allow the APC speaker to continue in Benue, why should the APC government allow a PDP Senate president to remain in office?

The rule of Law and morals should come from the top and permeate to the individual person, that is why the law is there to knock man into order otherwise man is selfish,reckless and lawless. The power to administer governance of the law is with the executive with the help of the judiciary. If government at the top don't lay good example by following and respecing the law, how do you expect the state and local government to do differently? Law always startsay from the center.

Every issue is always different with APC, they are setting the pace now, tomorrow it might be PDP or another party, I Hope they will not make noise about it. It was acceptable when tambuwal decamped to APC and still retained his position, and now with Saraki, Osho baba and his followers won't allow Saraki a breathing space. I am afraid for 2019 election because I don't see APC peacefully accepting defeat like the past immediate past president did. Mark my words.

This country is doomed, so now we can choose what law to comply to or not. I now know your stand on corruption, waiting next for Prof Osinbajo opinion. If this man can say this, what moral stand does he have to castigate those defending in court, the alleged thieving politicians. What I have expected from this man is to dissect this issue on both moral and legal basis and let people pick their stand. I don tire for this country. Well I have my PVC and I am very much scrutinising everyone showing interest in leading this country.

Soon Lai Mohammed will say Akpabio is the problem of APC just as Saraki is now. Let see how far this romance by blackmail will go.

Let me take my sit with a bucket of popcorn.......... Another movie has started

GameGod:
It's now you're seeing it? Huh, PDP paid this forum to work for them. Anyway it doesn't matter because each propaganda on this useless forum only gets 20 to 30k views only, there are more than 100m+ Nigerians.

Agreed something is wrong with virtually all of our online platforms because mobile devices and internet connection are much cheaper and better now, in additional to the our bad educational system, lapses in morality and intelligence. 30k view is much, convert this to vote and you will agree with me. This platform should discuss issues and proffer possible solutions. Most fake news about government also arise from government not being open and accessible for information. Most times those government official are set on reactive mode rather than than proactive. So people will create one to preempt event since no official statements are given.
