You have to understand that our project is not about labour party but obidient, we are not floating any political party but to enthrone a responsible president, president that will be in touch with us and not a self acclaimed self made president.
Personally, I want the pdp man to win, I don't really know the credentials of the LP man. I don't vote for political party but candidate

You don't vote parties but vote candidates.
please tell me how his Adeleke better than Oyetola or every other candidates.

I see some people comparing Lagos to Japan and Amsterdam and I laugh, these places are more elevated than Lagos state infact it is reported that some part of Lagos island is already few meters below sea level which means in time of flood, instead of water going into the sea, it comes to the land.


The rain in Lagos fell for close to a week continuously which caused flooding in some part of the state but the main question is after the rain stopped, did the flood remain?


Yes government still have a lot to same as we citizens because I know of a place we're people throw dirt's in anticipation for rain to flush it into the canal.

You are actually right but remember in one state, the governor owed workers salaries for 4 months while the others didn't.

The truth is they are both bad markets, if we were serious we would have supported a better candidate but by the way things are going, everybody is right for supporting whosoever they please to.

The truth is other parties have not been able to sell themselves to Nigerians because the candidates from those parties are people who have ruled before.

It could have been easier for people to support LP if they had brought a known technocrat but no the brought a politician who decamped to his third party, didn't transform his state as a governor but suddenly has the solution to Nigerians problems

PDP who could have been a major opposition brought a person who stays abroad more than he stays in Nigeria.


See ehn this election is just for people to think on their own and vote for the lesser evil because non of the major aspirants can beat their chest and say they are the best.

OneCandleAway:
Yes!

Since he is not regarded as a full muslim by northerners. He has to wait for Sultan in sokoto to sight the moon unlike other countries with Muslims.

stop deceiving your self all countries have Muslim representative who stands as a leader for them, here in Nigeria, it is the sultan.
The religion of Islam makes it mandatory for Muslims to have a leader wherever they are also these leaders are appointed not based on popularity (election) but competency (selection).

one would have expected people to be happy that Tinubu made a wrong choice.

I agree with you in the northeast where the military are working together, they have been able to deal decisively with Boko Haram reason why there haven't been serious attacks by Boko Haram in recent times.


I am still trying to figure out why the haven't replicate that in the northwest region.

I thought they said he doesn't need the governor's to be president.

with him attending the campaign, the governorship aspirant of lp shouldn't come less than 3rd position.

I don't have a problem with him resigning, my problem is when demolishing the structure why didn't he/they leave the Nigerian flag standing.
The Nigerian flag is bigger than him and the APC.

We as a people need to respect somethings.

He sits in a mosque is not an issue in Islam and that doesn't invalidate his prayers.

the way people are so sure that PO would win the SE and SS is very surprising like are you saying the other political parties who control some of these states would just look away?


Don't get me wrong, I am not in any way supporting rigging but these parties do ward meetings and have there reach around the states I mean they can poll a good number of crowds.

I think when campaign starts, our eyes would be cleared.

cybersoldiers:
Tinubu is fake Muslim.

You don't sit with a chair in the mosque as a genuine Muslim.

Oga in Islam if you are in a condition were you can't sit or stand when praying, it is permissible for you to lay down because there is/are no excuse for missing Solat.

All this kicking is unnecessary. If he picks a Muslim VP, and you are not pleased with it you simply vote another candidate.

treesun:
North that is plain land and you can see like 10km ahead of yo, yet we can't locate terrorists!

the north also have thick forests no everywhere is barren.

the rain has been falling for 7 hrs non stop.

This is more reason why states need to have there own police. The vigilantes were passionate about protecting their community but there ammunition were limited.

If it were to be another candidate from one State, the headline would have been different.

I am sure the intelligence chiefs new about the attack before it happened. My problem is just that we are not proactive in this country I see no reason why the president, Senate president and all service chiefs have not submitted their resignation forms.

75 billion don finish ni?

The minister of interior should just resign, under his watch multiple prisons were broken into and criminals escaped.

The fact is when you tell people this they would say you are disguising or wasting your vote.
The 4 main contenders have ruled before and didn't do anything spectacular how are you now sure they would perform wonders when the economy is at its lowest.

one went to a party in less than a month people who were in that party stepped down for him and you want me to believe money wasn't involved.

SlavaUkraini:
Fashola should be held responsible for this useless Government's failure to deliver constant Power supply to Nigerians.

The ministry today is working based on the wrong template that he pumped and wasted
billions of Naira into.

When he was there why didn't he advised the Dullard Buhari that there is need for devolution of power in the ministry which should be implemented speedily.

That would have taken a huge load from the head and neck of the federal government.

Was he not the same fellow that was making mouth in 2014 about the need for PDP to go for Nigerians to have constant Power supply ?

Or you just want to let him off the hook when he has FAILED WOEFULLY ?

Is he from your Village ?

Fashola's Failure = APC's Failure = Tinubu's Failure

So you are saying a man who spent 4years in a position has been the problem of the ministry?

Your last statement speaks loud of the kind of a person you are.

SlavaUkraini:
The same thing Buhari and Fashola have been doing in the Power sector.

Instead of Devolving Power to States to Generate their own Electricity when they came to office,

For 7+ years they have been trying to manage and patch the Ministry of Power that has failed previous Governments.

Their eyes don clear now as Nigerians now see them as incompetent Dullards ...

is Fashola still the minister of power?

you are right, same way the igbos are not the only tribe in the south east and the Yorubas also.

olasaad:
Kano Kaduna now have more roads than our almighy Lagos with their so called largest population in Africa. Imagine leaving your house around 3:30/4 in the early hours in the morning to beat traffic at the Lekki Ajah axis and the Lagos State government don't care of building alternative roads.

Do you stay in Lagos?

2500??

I hate it when people talk like this.

What if he supports your candidate, your candidate wins but fails in governance would you take him to America? Are people not supposed to support whoever the believe in?


If the said guy candidate wins and pass in governance won't he want to come home?

I am sure the would have billionaires amongst them who would sponsor him.

He has also woken up, he shouldn't stop here, he should rally round his colleagues in the north to ask for State police.

It's only some northern governor's who are against it

SmartPolician:
First of all, Peter Obi has traveled to many countries to study their economies and paid tens of thousands of dollars to learn from some of the best schools in the world. You need to look at his CV to understand what I mean. Therefore, it's only natural that he shares his knowledge.

Secondly, if Peter Obi starts using what APC government is getting wrong as examples, it will look like an attack. Notice that he rarely attacks personalities, instead they have been the ones hauling him over the coals because of his increasing popularity. He is a simple but rich man, so he doesn't want one desperate idiot to target his life because he is vying to be president.

Thirdly, Obi is helping Nigerians think outside the box because we are so obsessed with petrodollars. He is bringing a new solution - something that nobody has ever done before. What we hear other candidates say are the usual things we have heard for the past 2 decades. None of them talks about how to improve our earnings as a country. That's where the idea of changing from consumption to production comes in. Nigeria has a population of over 200m and depending solely on petrodollars to take care of her people is a no-no.

Now you know why Obi uses other countries for examples. Even if you are not ready to learn, at least open-minded people will read this and learn so it's not necessarily for you.

You said he his bringing in a new thing outside petrodollars, why did he not bring it has Governor his achievements has always been he saved money. The truth is a person can only be judged using his past and not what he his projecting the future would be. If you are an employer would you employ a person who failed in his past job but he is now giving you advice on how to move your company?

I have read different post on nairaland when PO was Governor, it's from one complain to the other. His he the same person people are supporting to be the president of Nigeria?
