Omoyele Sowore Laments On The Sorry State Yaba Railway Station (Pics) by Realdeals(m): 11:45am On Nov 03, 2018
Presidential Candidate of the African Action Congress (AAC) and publisher of the online news platform Sahara Reporters, Omoyele Sowore on Thursday 1st of November 2018 boarded the train at the Yaba railway station. On a post he shared on Facebook, Sowore lamented the bad state of the Yaba railway station, likened the ticketing office as a place that could not even pass for a horse stable in sane democracies.

”Yesterday I visited the derelict and unbelievably shabby makeshift shack that is the Yaba Train Station in Lagos. There we found a ticketing office which could not even pass for a horse stable in sane democracies. As if to shock us further, we were shown a space made of roofing sheet, dirt, drowned ambition and the shamelessness of our leaders. This space was supposed to be the waiting area of the station. My interaction with Nigerians on the spot and even inside the dingy train opened my eyes to something I hope your eyes will open to as well. Nigeria must be rescued no matter the cost! We have heartless, thieving, conniving and lying dishonourables as leaders. Do the right thing by Nigeria, tell someone about our candidacy and let’s fire up this revolution once and for all!!!”

Just imagine a train station, meanwhile the likes of Ganduje are collecting bundles of extra crispy dollar notes.

How can we be supporting thieves that did this to us?

Youths, adults, my elders, lets all rise to support this guy men!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Atiku is in Dubai, Buhari is bragging about a WAEC result certificate, while Sowore, an IVY league graduate is on ground going around, identifying problems and solutions, trying to mobilize for support and I say we should give it to him with a righteous, thunderous rage, birthed from a culmination of DECADES worth of our collective frustration as a nation.

Together, one by one, we can change a mind, two minds, a thousand minds... till most Nigerians see that supporting these analog, failed politicians, does us no good.

Look at our train station in Yaba for goodness sake, doesn't that make you boil? Even the just completed one was done to "naija standard", sigh.

What's wrong with you bro? Who is your own candidate? Don't tell me Atiku?

Let's compare Atiku and Sowore:

EDUCATION
Atiku: Diploma in Law, which is less than a full degree.
Sowore: Masters in PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION, Columbia University (Same Uni as Obama)

CAMPAIGN FUNDING
Atiku:? ? ? ? ? ?
Sowore: Open and Transparent Go-Fund-Me along with open donations by the public

BUSINESS
Atiku: Businesses clouded in allegation after allegation
Sowore: Founder of Sahara Reporters, a very CLEAN and COMPETITIVE business, aspiring to the likes of Aljazera and BBC


HISTORY:
Atiku: Former Vice President faced with further allegations, ruled Nigeria for 8 years (why you coming back bro?)
Sowore: Fought Abacha, Fought OBJ, Fought the Cabal behind Yaradua, Fought GEJ, Fought Tinubu - exposing his land grabs around Lagos, currently fighting Buhari.

CAMPAIGN STRATEGY:
Atiku: Strategizing from the comfort of his hotel in Dubai
Sowore: ON GROUND!!! With Town Hall meeting after Town Hall meeting throughout Nigeria.

This is the only way to go, grab the chance people. It might seem like a joke to typical nigerians that have been stupified from birth to believe and worship heartless thieves like Tinubu,but if you really want you really want to step up to rationality like normal humans,a new breed of rational leaders should take charge to lead the people to a state of basic human rationality.(a state of common sense) a state where keeping the streets paved and clean won't seem like a rocket anymore.

Be conscious. Be aware, alert and alive.

Hmmmm nice one. But Sowore is too close to Tinubu for comfort

Rumour has it that he is just pretending to distant himself from Tinubu

Well may the best candidate win

Anyone aside Buhari is okay by 90% of Nigerians

This guy might have good intentions... but then everyone can't be president...

if you really want to serve the nation there are other places like the Senate, House of assembly, gov, etc... Everyone can't be president

Sowore has always been addicted to failure.

I recall how he lost the class captain election in secondary school and SUG elections thrice in university.

This guy is a joker.

Hehehe.all this promise and continuous promises by the "politrikians".
Ok. we have seen the problems on ground.how do u plan to salvage the situation.are u going to borrow to fund the infrastructural devt or jus tel us how u plan to salvage the situation.cos we know our country don't have cash for such projects to make it look like USA .we can only try our best that's if the politicians don't feed fat on the little available resources/cash at the expense of infrastructure.I once checked USA defense budget.lo and behold I saw a whooping $600billion jus for a year o on defense .that like our 30yrs whole budget.we have a long way to go in this continent.
That's why they keep promising and when they get there , they jus have to face the reality.
