Nigeria is a funny country. Everybody knows the problems and their solutions on theoretical basis. Sadly, even those in power will lecture on the problems instead of solving them practically.

We nigerians as a whole have fish brains... Obasanjo that looted this country to pieces .. this is too funny but sad part people's life are involved...almost all the life of nigerians are involved so I will just respectfully to Nigerians say that "we reap what we sow"... Our country is what it is today because we are who we are ...I mean imagine a country where people kill others for money rituals... Damn what a country

Without mincing words...Obasanjo tried and with Buhari in the picture we can now see that even Jonathan tried also,but in all,Buhari employed tribalism as a tool to destroy this country.

Still on Obasanjo matter,he was the only leader who accommodated all tribe in his govt,Jonathan did the same and even Yar'ardua did also. But this man in power never did.

Obj didn't get much votes from his people yet he never discriminated when it comes to appointments,in fact Obj ensured the federal character principle was followed to the least,he also ensured that our international debts were all paid off by means of debt relief or write off.

What has Buhari done?he created more problem for us and that has caused us bad image all over the world,his utterances are nothing to but a bad way to market us as a people.

He never said any good things about our youth despites the fact that,we have great and ambitious youth. He has often labelled the northern youths as lazy which he later went to the international stage to disparage entire Nigerian youths as lazy.

What Buhari has not destroyed hasn't been created.

This is why Tinubu will be the next President.

Atiku a close 2nd.

But we don't want a 3rd Class dullard who is a coward that ran from PDP primaries and shamelessly lives in the Lagos Tinubu developed.

SE - underdeveloped, indigenes run away like it is hell to Lagos which is heaven to them. Mondays are sit-at-home....NO ONE wants a Nigeria like that.

Thanks to every one of u politicians.

If half of u had been visionary like Yar' Adua was, and keep up with his vision2020, we wouldnt be here

Yar Adua was God sent. Still wonder why he died so early.
I guess the powers that be had something to do with his death.

I hope Peter Obi learns from that experience.

Yemi Osinbajo would have been my choice of next president but Tinubu had to let power intoxicate him.

This is one of the characters keeping Nigeria from moving forward, supporting a thief and drug lord for Presidency because of tribalism. Tinubu will be President of only Iragbiji.

Nigerian politicians only see the solution when they are out of power. Obasanjo is a wasted goodwill. He had all the resources to change the course of Nigeria but ego and greed got in the way.

OBJ U AND ATIKU QUANDERED $16B IN 2007 FOR POWER GENERATION

BUT HE IS RIGHT OUR PROBLEM IS NOT BEING ABLE TO ELECT CREDIBLE PEOPLE IN LEADERSHIP

INFACT THE MASSES ARE THE PROBLEM OF NIGERIA

IF WE KEEP VOTING IDIOTS AS LEADERS BECAUSE THEY ARE OUR TRIBES MEN,THEN THERE IS NO NEED BEING TOGETHER AS ONE NATION

AGAIN OUR ELECTORAL BODY SHOULD BE TOTALLY INDEPENDENT AND BE CHECKMATED

IS 2023 LET US RALLY ROUND THE BEST CANDIDATE ACROSS BOARD

NOT SOMEONE THAT HAS BEEN STEALING OUR TREASURY SINCE 1999 COMING TO TELL YOU TO VOTE FOR HIM BECAUSE HIS PARTY HAS STRUCTURE, THAT'S THE HEIGHT OF INSULT

NIGERIA BE WISE

WE BEHAVE LIKE STUPID PEOPLE

OBJ is just talking trash... Was it not when he came into power that the price of Garri went up?

He now talk like he is clean, when old age don come and no position to fight for they start showing care... Nigerian politicians en.. Even Jonathan the other day was saying the almost the same thing.. Tomorrow now this living dead that has made the country as lifeless as he his will come by 2025 and start saying the same thing. Useless thieves.
You got it all wrong....
OBJ made agriculture very lucrative that cassava farmers prefered to sell to chinese buyers then and earn decent pay for their venture than sell to locals to make "garri"...
Obj also proposed the usage of 10% of cassava starch for industrial processes for making of bread and other daily use comodity GEJ implemented..
So the policy fully benefitted nigerians unlike what we have now

You had the chance to put Nigeria on the right track Baba, but you didn't.

You gave us very terrible elections in 2003 and 2007 and in terms of infrastructures, there is no project you can point at that you started and finish.

OBJ is the most powerful president that have rule in this 4th Republic, he could have put Nigeria on the right track to prosperity.

I don't understand Nigerian Politicians, you won't do any tangible thing while in Government, when you are out of Government, una go start having solutions


Can you tell us your State of Origin? make we see how your state of origin is as develop as Cape Town because Tinubu didn't rule your state of origin.

..do not mind them.when they are out of government that is when they know the solution to nigeria problems .but when they were in government they were looting money and providing bad goverance
