ElSudani:I would be the happiest person if after my candidate was defeated, your candidate began to make life better for Nigerians. It's just 8 months are he has destroyed more lives than Buhari. And you are here absolving government of the problems they created. You want to blame Nigerians for the problems created by their government. Really 1 Like |

Timothy89: Well Timothy, the same Atiku Abubakar bragged at the start of his Presidential campaign in Jos even as his body guards physically assaulted journalists that "it his money that will get him the Presidency..,.he does not need any journalists!!" Not surprising afterwards that the Plateau people went out hard for a more sincere and humble character like Obi. There is absolutely no tolerance for a high handed person whose sense of entitlement unrealistically demands undue and exaggerated attention or forced respect like his blood thirsty Miyetti Allah cotravellers. The recently past Buhari's regime simply printed so much paper money into the system without anything to anchor the value of that excess liquidation on. Even the oil revs that were pre-sold into the future to secure extravagant debts and loans since squandered weren't enough to bail out the Nigerian currency's value this time. Reducing this excess liquidation by propping production (especially on items that gobble up the hard currency reserves) could be start. But what am I saying? Even the Electric power generation to trigger such production I am made to understand was partly squandered by a VP Atiku in a previous life. I have always wondered what type of solutions the entity called Nigeria would have been forced to adopt if it never even had any oil at all. The solutions and potential is there. But I think the corrosive impatient get rich quick mentality that has pervaded the entire Nigerian system is rather unfortunate. |

Malroux:Obi is not the undisputed choice of Nigerians but of Obidients. Obi himself does not have the capacity to lead Nigeria. If Tinubu fails despite his achievements in Lagos, Obi cannot. Atiku is the least that can handle Naija. The person who will make Nigeria better must be a democrat but must operate like a military. He must step on toes. He will fight the gods in Nigeria. I am not going to mention names, but he will fight the banking gods, oil gods, military gods, gas gods, ocean gods, etc. He will turn the whole of Nigeria upside down. Civil servants will curse him because he will fight them. He will make them resume at 8am and leave at 4 pm. Ghost workers will be eradicated. See...he will reinvent the Nigerian police. Lol. Who can do it? I don't know. Nigeria should split. So, don't ever say Obi is Nigerians' choice. Pandora cannot be. Never. Come 2027, he will still not win. Mark my words. 99% North will never vote for him and 80% Southwest will still not. So, how will he win? Live in reality and not in your dream. 5 Likes |

The thing is, Atiku is telling only the partial truth about MIllei's reforms in Argentina....they go way beyond what he has just stated. FIrst off, the guy plans to devalue the peso, then privatise a lot of state industries, cut subsides on transport and fuel...yes fuel, and cut pensions and salaries of government workers. He also planned to sack 5000 government workers in his first few months If it was implemented in NIgeria...especially the bit about sacking workers...there would be protests on the street. Infact, there have been protests in Argentina. And the bills on the reforms are stalled in their equivaelnt of our national assembly. 1 Like |

mauchiz: Yes o. Infact there have been massive protests by their trade unions, and the reform bill is stalled in their parliament. The guy was planning to make massive cuts. Severe cuts in everything. He even said so himself. I like what Milliei is doing, but knowing what NIgerians are, if MIllei was ruling Nigeria, Nigerians would have all been out on the street in protest. NO one would be talking about tribe or religion.. 2 Likes |

Malroux: Atiku and Obi are both comedians. Go and look at the data for Argentina since the man took office.

Timothy89: Discovery of oil did not necessarily ruin NIgeria, though it messed things up. It also did not wreck regionalism. The regions were on their way out once the Mid western region was created in 1963. BY 1965/6 many minorities in the North and east were agitating for more states. Gowon listened to them and gave them states. If there had been no coup, there might have been a MIddle belt region created before 1970. And even eventually states. OJukwu wanted to divide, and infact divided BIafra into several provinces. Nigeria's problem has always been resource dependency. Our revenue is basically based on selling stuff like cocoa, cotton, palm oil. THe problem was as prices for those things fell in the 1970s, we got lucky we had oil. But the MAIN PROBLEM...is that we do not set the prices of whatever we sell. Prices are controlled by others. Ghana recently tried to raise the price of its cocoa...main export. Failed misreably. Mali and Burkina, among many other cotton producers, have been fighting a long war with the USA over cotton prices. USA produces so much cotton, the price for cotton internationally remains low . Other cotton producers cannot compete. Same with oil. NIgeria needs oil at 130 dollars per barrel. Problem is, if we unillaterally raise it up to that price, we would be shut out of the oil market, as people go to cheaper priced countries for cheaper oil. If we wanted to be a strong nation, we gotta industrialize and export manufactured goods and services. 2 Likes |

He was coming with a radical, anti establishment campaign, cutting costs, entrenching wokers, shutting down some public assests, etc. i knew there's no way you can go radical and it won't bite hard on the masses. I don't even think Atiku actually know what is presently going on in Argentina before making comparison. PS; got a quick update from Casualobserver. Atiku is crazy, i swear. |

ATIKU is one of the major problems we have in Nigeria. This idiot conspired against Godluck Jonathan (PDP) with other northern PDP governors to support Buhari (APC) to remove a southerner in his quest to become a president. Buhari won and destroy the country - consequences we're still suffering today. |
