The most unintelligent drivel I have read in my life. If the poor must not be allowed to vote, why do you need them at all?

Why not send them all to the gas chamber, as Hitler wanted to do to Jews, so you can have your elite-led society?

Undemocratic olodo, another adult, of sound mind, is not inferior to you merely because they have less money than you or are of lower societal standing.

No one must be denied their democratic will by arrogant elements, like you, who insist they alone must think and make decisions for others. Are you God?

Even democratic mistakes are part of the processes that have grown the best democracies we all admire today. You're a disgrace walahi.

This very family has dealt with Lagos state seriously, they want to use the same hand and energy to deal with Nigeria too. But they're so stupid and myopic to think that Nigeria is Lagos.



Despite all these, I want to assure Tinubu that I followed his urchins and stand on his manhood.

TimmyA:
For her mind she is thinking of becoming first lady of nigeria, forget it, she can only be first lady in her husband's house and never that of nigeria. God forbid bad thing

MadamVanessa:
: And what about your family why are you so unfortunate and stupid not to rule or dealt with your state.. Pray

The grassroots are our major problem. Give them a bag of rice and you can literally buy their destiny. This is Tinubu's secret luck in Lagos. Tinubu doesn't need the votes of people in Lekki Phase 1 or Banana Island. All he needs to do is take a few notes and go to Makoko where 50 people share a 10 ft. by 10 ft. apartment.

If I ever find my way to Aso rock, I will do everything within my power to ensure that only elites are allowed to vote. Anyone without at least, a net worth of N10m shouldn't be allowed to own a voters card.

The poor will never allow Nigeria to work and that's a fact. The democracy we copied from the West isn't for us. The poor over there are at least educated and well informed. Many of them also do not lack basic amenities like food and water so you can't easily buy their votes by distributing salt and Maggi.

It's a different case over here. Allow only the elite to choose our leaders so when their preferred choice fails, we can easily go after them and interrogate their choice. It's also harder to buy the votes of the elites here.

We will only continue to f00l one another with our yeye democracy and criticise countries like Russia where only the elites make the most informed decisions.

With democracy and poverty stricken grassroot formula, Nigeria will NEVER work. How can it work when Tony Elumelu has the same voting power with a thug in Oshodi?

Finally, Tinubu advisers don dey listen to me. If na sey dem dey follow my advice since instead of all dem yeye e-servants for nairaland, Tinubu for get chance for dis election.

Ben did not step down. His senatorial district has their own zoning formula with they adhere to before and after him

Sweetheart, forget this noise that you and most myopic Nigerians make around election time which is invariably centred around your likes and dislike for personalities.

The storm that is ahead for Nigeria, most of you have blinded yourselves to, is not about Tinubu. It is about reforms that is vital for for the survival of Nigeria yet some will reject because of a bull-headed devotion to life as they want it to remain for them and for the rest us by force.

Think renewal of grazing routes in this day and age Buhari is insisting on. Same person you're all looking at to do you a favour and scheme out BAT.

What kind of candidate will Buhari go for then given his dogmatic insistence on policies and initiatives that are outrightly wrong for the modernisation and progress of Nigeria?

The same President outrightly rejected State policing, despite the remarkable success of a smaller model of it in Lagos, and openly mocked restructuring and those passionately insistent on it.

What kind if successor would Buhari and his cabal be looking for then to protect their interest and, most importantly, who will they reject as an absolute no-no if we all now know and accept that Buhari ideas he considers sacrosanct are inimical to the growth and progress of Nigeria? Is it Rocket Science?


Should we then , if pragmatically clever, not be automatically fair and dispassionate in looking at anyone Buhari is opposing vehemently?

I was a supporter of Buhari previously but became disillusioned with him when I realised nothing holds true about him anymore.

They will tell you he wants to prevent a "looter" replacing him but what do you think Malami and many Buhari insiders are getting away with? Look at the scam Amaechi tried to pull off with the railway security contract. Any sanction against him so far in what amounts to a public disgrace for Nigeria?

All has been swept under the rug in the Buhari government.

Adamu that Buhari singlehandedly installed as APC chairman is the epitome of integrity ba?

There is no proof today that Buhari is anti-corruption. If anything, his Presidency has cemented the fact that he is selectively supportive of corruption, and very okay with it, when it is from his trusted affiliates and insiders.

Till today, no sanction for Amaechi over the blatant looting of public fund he sought to get away with.

Instead Amaechi is running to be President as one of Buhari's boys.

They are simply exploiting the hate you southerners have for each other to deny you the best to represent you, as was the case with Awolowo and Abiola, so we all develop at the pace of those who still wish to gather the poor outside there houses and give them100 naira each.

Whereas Tinubu, Awolowo etal see the development of all around them as the only sustainable model to deliver Nigeria and secure her development as a first world nation.

You will be in your sixties before your eyes open and then you will understand the reality of Nigeria.

All those saying Tinubu no get chance don't have their PVC , on election day Agbero union members , area boys, olosho, mama oni jedijedi and paraga will all line up and vote Tinubu while those of you on nairaland will be at home watching the events on channels news

Funflipper:


You said it all; but will these naive kids ever learn?

Those calling for restructuring naïve, dangerous, says Buhari

President Muhammadu Buhari virtually foreclosed the restructuring of Nigeria, Saturday, when he said there was nothing to restructure.

“And again those who are discussing restructuring, my question is, what are you going to restructure? If you ask many Nigerians what they are going to restructure, you will find out that they have nothing to talk about.

OGHENAOGIE:
but they don't want buhari to pick his own successor you see the hypocrisy there....

LegendHero:
Cool.

It’s always hard to see someone step down from their senatorial positions when they have chances of winning.

I think Ben Bruce did something like that too.

Funflipper:


The lagos they are dealing with is still better than the other 35 states put together.

Penguin2:


Lol!

The day Lagos is freed from the grip of Tinubu and his family, Lagosians will go for special thanksgiving.

Tinubu and Family Ltd have done Lagos shege.

Emilokoiyawon:


We have heard you. Now, tell us who is holding your wretched state hostage?

Penguin2:


Where is my state?

Emilokoiyawon:


Unless your state is more developed than Lagos then it is a wretched state. Now tell us, who is your useless state hostage?

Orishishishi
