Lol..
It's like you didn't get the full gist on what tinubu did to ambode.
When ambode saw that things were not going his way, he went to tinubu asking tinubu to name his price that he (ambode) would pay. Yes! Tinubu mentioned an amount and ambode quickly send the money to tinubu, guess what! When ambode called tinubu to confirm if he has receive the money, tinubu said yes but its the party money that ambode has refused to release all the while. No deal was reached

Fairy tale

that is to say that votes don't count at all, my thoughts are with those who participate in the shenanigan called election... Since na one man decides who stays or leaves

Nigeria and partisanship, can any one enumerate the issues between Osho and Obaseki. Are those issues germane to the development of Edo state. If godfatherism and imposition is one of the issues, did Osho not boasted to have eliminated godfather-ism in Edo state, why not allow same principle apply with Obaseki. It is never about Edo's development but about selfish motives. Let the God's chosen one win. Kudos to the Oba of Benin, who never involves the throne in partisanship. Politicians are viruses.

What do you know, Fashola was almost removed if not for his popularity and acceptability by Lagosians. Also, he was a performer, which made Lagosians lay seige at the state house demanding for his second term, I hope you can prove the same solidarity for your governor and state

What gave Fashola the tickets for APC Gubernatorial Candidate was that he enjoyed the popularity and acceptability of party members, executives and civil servants not Lagosians. Lagosians only boost his chances in getting elected in INEC conducted elections. Without the party accepting you, you cannot present yourself to the citizens. Ambode was never accepted by the party executives, majority of the members and civil servants, even when it becoming like shameful thing to Tinubu not to accept the plead of Buhari and his respected political actors, it is too late to change the stakeholders mindset. Ambode make matter worse by publicly calling Sanwolu as a psychiatric patient that is yet to be totally cured.

Obaseki is worst than Ambode, shun the national executive peace move, plan the removal of the Party national chairman, write off all state Party executives and loyalists, etc...All those that he can run to including Tinubu, he has once insulted them. But in politics, anything can happen... Let see how Oyegun who want to score political scores with Oshiomole and has been the brain behind Obaseki's political blunders goes.

This is late now? They should've done this loooooong before now!

So I am supposed to believe this narrative over a video?

Check the name of the authors, do research and come back bro, this ain't it. I give u as an assignment and come and prove me wrong. I don't know why black people hate to read

Do.you think IPOB wants war? All I hear is referendum.

You've not been listening to Kanu lately, he wanted war and he's driving all us in it, no one want war, but not when we're pushed to the wall, Kanu is not asking for war but he's propagating everywhere with hatred and propaganda, hate speech is cause of 80 percent of all war, I wonder when igbo elders will caution him

Mathias KANU execution in the presence of BBC and the sardauna interview also on BBC.

That is war now, you declare war on Nigeria, you expect Nigeria to play tinko with you before, are you for real.

When the Biafran occupiers began to lose ground, their paranoia increased. Each set back on the battlefield was blamed on saboteurs, and in the desperate circumstances of continual retreat, the policies of the Biafrans turned to draconian, inhumane solutions. The murder of non-Igbos intensified. In Abudu, over 300 bodies were found in the Ossiomo River and on 20 September 1967, many non-Igbos were slaughtered at Boji-Boji Agbor. And at Asaba, Ibusa and Agbor non-Igbos were taken into custody by Biafran soldiers and transported in two lorries to a rubber plantation along the Uromi-Agbor Road where they were put to death.

In the tit-for-tat atmosphere of war, it is perhaps no surprise that an estimated 200 Igbos lost their lives when the Federal takeover of Benin City began on September 21st. Later, mobs in places such as Warri and Sapele would turn on the Igbos. Many Igbos, including the erstwhile administrator, Major Albert Okonkwo who had declared the Mid-West to be the “autonomous independent sovereign republic of Benin”, fled eastwards for their lives.

Newsweek, in one of its reports titled “The Resurrection of Biafra,” stated that “some of the worst massacres of the war, in fact, occurred when federal troops captured minority regions -where upon the minority tribesmen turned on the Ibos in bloody fury.”

This quote presents the Igbo as the victims in the hands of the minority groups, without reference to any experience the minorities might have had in the Igbo-dominated region before the arrival of the federal troops

But you said there was no massacre that it was war. The killing matthias KANU on video is enough.

Kindly check the meaning of massacre in your dictionary, massacre is not killing only one person, didn't Biafra killed unarmed civilian in minorities regions? Killing of one person is not massacre

Did you watch the video? BBC was there thank God.

I won't say more. I am not Igbo. But history backed with video evidence cannot be distorted.

I've watched the video, what happened, the perpetuator was killed too, what do you want? A shoulder to cry on? Let's be realistic, civil war is like a wound, the more you open it, the longer it takes to heal thank you

Na wa o, a governor that has hundreds of seasoned advisers he pays makes an important political visitation and consultation, while you sit at home and read news on Nairaland is saying the visit is not necessary.
I wonder how you think you know more than a governor.

How did he tackle obj u were told

When OBJ/PDP made agreement with Afenifere to vote him for second term only Tinubu stood his ground against it and after the election PDP won 5 states in the west but AD/Tinubu won only Lagos state. After then Tinubu created 37 LGAs more in the state for governance to be closer to the people and OBJ stopped the LGA allocation coming to Lagos for almost 4 years even when the court ask him to release the funds.
Today the reason Afenifere is always against Tinubu is because immediately PDP gained access to 5 states in the west, they did all they can to have Tinubu back and He told them that they can come together if they can bring back the 5 States AD lost due to their greed. During this period Tinubu left AD to start AC and gradually the party started gaining ground in the west, later he merged with other parties to form ACN and now APC. [b] Tinubu May be the most corrupt politician from the west [b] but he is more relevant in politics than OBJ in the west. Anytime any day.

Wait o o o, which obaseki u pple are talking about, is it not formal arsenal player or d 1 insulted tinubu.
