you no see the part when say he wan pursue him interest in petrochemicals abi.... Who know whether he wan build refinery

I guess he is getting ready for Dangote Refinery. Maybe he will be buying a stake in the refinery. I guess he and Dangote are pals, and probably business partners. I have seen him visit the refinery site with Dangote.

Buhariiiiii

That's the end of Forte oil. 75% sell of share is the end of the company

Not a Buhari supporter but you are an "Olodo". It is Femi Otedola that is selling his shares. It's not Forte oil that is selling it. It simply mean that the 75% share would be transferred or sold to a different individual or entities. There would be new owners. The company remain the same except for changes in the boardroom.

If any you think that guy have an hint that he is of Nigerian origin, then you are fooling yourselves. I watched one of his other video and below his my comment to one of is other YouTube videos I saw:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=45pTq0ADz6o

"Dr. Hakeem Oluseyi, I could see from your names that your parents are most likely Nigerians. In fact I have the same first name, and similarly your last name is of same ethnic origin as mine. So I am really surprised by your comment on finding students in South Africa equally as intelligent as American students. Sorry to ask this "Don't your parents talk about their Nigerian background?". Until the time I was doing grad studies at a Canadian university and was undergrad class instructor, I never realized how superbly more brilliant an average Nigerian student I left home was. Only thing was that they were in a society with different human experience, different environment, and different and extremely diverse cultures. I would expect you to have come to that level of awareness before that trip to South Africa. For example I read somewhere online, and not sure how accurate it is, that you never heard about calculus until after you left high school for Stanford. That is a stark contrast to the public high school I attended in Lagos, Nigeria in early to mid-80s where we had few calculus whiz kids in the class."

Government run airline. First question to ask yourself, what has any government in Nigeria run so well before? Please point to just one government corporation that is well managed successfully. Even in advanced economies, it was a failure.

Tundeobama:
Pdp never again a party that ruled federal for 16years.what else are you coming for to steal more?

There are other parties aside PDP and APC. I know the media have limited people to these two parties but we all know that the better options are candidates like Sowore and Moghalu. Though I prefer Sowore because he is very candid and put the old thieves where they belong. Moghalu would have been the best option but he went to Babangida and does not seem to have the ability to step on toes. He look like someone who would like to please everybody unlike Sowore who does not give a Bleep about the old thieves.

Cantonese:
In competitions there are people called "also ran". Unfortunately it is impossible for him to win in wards how much more the presidency where PDP and APC are the main contestants.

But why are they scared to debate with him?

tripplephi:
this is NOT huge. ITS JUST A main STREET

Not to forget that this party was formed only few months ago. And why are the powerbrokers so scared that they played him out of the presidential debate. How does a party formed only few months ago became the third most popular party in Nigeria? That say something. The eyes of the enemies of Nigeria will open at the end of the day on election day in 2019 which coincidentally is Sowore's birthday.

IamD18:
Charly boy is simply mad.

This unsympathetic idiotic logic is rich coming from him a biological father of a lesbian.

So judging by his logic, he sure committed atrocities against lesbians which happens to be the reason her daughter turned to one.

Very foolish and disrespectful of him.

Keep your mouth quiet Mr. Good riddance to bad rubbish. Was the man not the one stole public funds meant for the Boko Harem war, building houses all over. He should go and live in that house where ever his soul is now. Are you stealing public funds that Charly Boys response seem to unsettle you?

One down, many more to go among the enemies of the people of Nigeria.

Karma na bastard. Him too get memory. Him no even allow the man enjoy his loot well.

[quote author=CaptainGOOD post=73995418]Which one is lack honour.
What experience of leadership does Sowore has? [/quote

So, you are pretending not to understand what it mean to be an honourable person. In the context of this discussion, it meant to keep to terms if an agreement you previously signed no matter the situation. Moghalu signed onto PACT but he lost the election to Durotoye. Sowore on the other was wise enough to stay away from PACT after the first meeting he attended knowing fully well it's a dubious attempt of the bigger parties to subvert efforts of newer candidates by using few mischevious ones among them. Ask yourself where the female candidate Eunice is today. Do you ever hear about her again. All this election is business to her.]

Word of a dreamer

I guess you used a mobile phone to make this comment. Do you ever ask yourself how it was invented and produced. Someone conceptualized an idea in his/her mind. Someone imagined it. This is more like the "dreaming" stage for all great inventions and ideas that have changed the world.

If you can't "dream", then you can't be anything worthy in this competitive world. Don't just be a consumer or a follower, be a "maker". For every dream to come alive, you must get up and work toward it. God says he created man in his image. What do you think that mean? You are created to be a creator as well. To be able to imagine things, dream big and small ideas and bring it to life in the physical world. I am a dreame and this has earned me two US patents, and just a week ago I obtained my first Nigerian patent for an application I invented. The way Sowore disrupted the media space is the same way my company plan to disrupt the real estate industry in Nigeria, so people could transact real estate with peace of mind.

So, be a dreamer because only dreamers can make great things happen.

[quote author=Spatta post=73981592][/quote]More so, Moghalu lack honour. Ask him if he honoured the PACT agreement he signed onto, and what was the purpose of his visit to Babangida earlier in his campaign? To ask for money or for Babangida's support. And you expect Moghalu to step on powerful toes to change Nigeria?

ArmaniUhuru:
You supported and vote one ancestor over a 58 man in 2015. Na now your eyes clear?

Can you point to a source or provide proof that he supported Buhari in 2015? Doing the right thing to support fraud free election in 2015 is not the same as supporting Buhari. Sowore did not state anywhere that people should vote for Buhari in 2015. Was he not the one using his media that helped brought in Jonathan in 2010/2011 when the cabal wouldn't let him be. Doing what is right and just is not the same thing as coming out to support one candidate or another. Always stand up for what is right. He did the same thing for Abiola during June 12. Initially before June 12 election he and students were not supporting Abiola because of his closeness to the military. But after injustice was done to Abiola and people of Nigeria, Sowore came out to lead students on the streets to support Abiola and June 12 victory. Babangida offered student union leaders Peugeot cars, other student leaders accepted the offer but Sowore turned it down. Abiola offered him N800,000 during June 12 struggle for his support but Sowore refused to accept the money. I was a student at the University of Ibadan at same period, and was conversant of the events. While university of Ibadan students were attacked by cultists and no one stood up for them, Sowore stood up against cultists at the University of Lagos. I and other friends were victims of cultists at UI. It was so bad. Stand behind people who would stand up for you, not those who do not appreciate the fact that you exist.

Useless campaign Strategy.

As for me and my household, come what may, na Canada we go dey 2019 dey watch d elections for dat side..

Canada na your country?

Since you drug pushers, kidnappers and armed robbers are more creative and productive, kindly use your creativity and productivity to generate and distribute light to your houses and companies. ISI EWU......

Problem is in Nigeria you can't consume the power you generate as it has to be supplied to the grid. Obsolete regulations.

It's obvious Atiku is ready to dance naked at night in a market square in order to clinch the presidency. What will be will be.

Nigeria senseless youths. Just how much did you get for mortgaging another 4 years of your lives?

MrPresident1:
Why do you pay yearly rent in Nigeria? That's criminal and fraudulent. In Nairobi, we pay monthly!

One of the reasons why Nigeria is an upside down society. Before, landlords used to request arbitrary tenancy periods like 2 or 3 years, especially in Lagos, until the state govt made a law against it. Now it's usually 1yr but also depend on location of property.

The way you Nigerians fool yourselves. So, what value is this to Nigeria? How many world bank economists and other internationally renowned economist do you need to solve Nigeria economic problems. Be your own economists and come up with home-grown solution to your wahala.

Mr Greenspan was the chairman of one of the most exploitative financial mafia-like organization in the world, the US Federal Reserve. Do you think the US has a Central Bank? No, it does not. The Federal Reserve is made up of private groups and individuals who has held the balls of Americans for decades. Please, you all go educate yourselves. It's the survival of the fittest my people. Wake up or the second slave trade will soon be here.

BabaO2:
Sowore played himself out of relevance by being too insultive. He looks better prepared than even the so called former CBN deputy governor, but attitude is altitude. Students unionism is not forever. People that could have helped him at long run, he started insulting them left and right.

It's only Nigeria that calling a spade a spade will be regarded as been insultive. The society loves and abhor deceit. Then, Trump.shouldnt have been invited to the USA presidential debate. Nigerians haven't seen anything yet. The level of suffering coming upon you all because of your love for deceit will be higher than Everest mountain. You are all yet to free yourself from the curse placed by Awolowo. You go all hear weeeeen!

So some Nigerians are still going to flock to this country where the royal authorities have blood on their hands. A Saudi journalist was ordered killed and his body was dismembered in the Saudi embassy in Turkey by a killer squad sent by the royals. Holy land my foot.

What's the difference between this and killing a ram publicly during Muslim sallah festival? Africans wake up from your slumber. You are all mostly in a state of trance trying to be what you are not. That's why you seem not to know your left from your right.

I like Mess I but where is his world cup.laurels. Also, he need to try other big leagues. He is super talented, no doubt, but to be the greatest of all time requires more than than dominating a single league. Look at Ronaldo, he played brilliantly at Man-U, then at Real Madrid,, then took up another challenge in the Italian league.

Efewestern:
Every state is sovereign, yet NATO led an Air campaign against Gaddafi, This was even approved by these so called Useless UN, Isreal kept violating Syria's airspace, not until Russia decided to checkmate their excesses, Saudi Arabia is killing people in another country, Russia keeps intimidating their neighbors, etc.

ICC are bunch of hypocrites, there is nothing Nigeria military has done that US, Russia, Saudi Arabia,etc haven't don't x10. These people have bombed Hospitals, schools, churches, mosques, homes, (killed thousands of Innocent kids), yet everyone is acting like they are saint.

Think man, Nigeria has brought peace to Humanity than US and Russia put together, at least we brought stability to Liberia, Sierra Leone and Gambia all at our expenses. Tell me one country these western countries have stabilized, just mention one.

Great points. From Iraq, Afghanistan to Libya, it's the same story for them.

ICC should go and say that to the Americans for their activities in Iraq and Afghanistan. So, ICC is only meant for third world countries. I am not supporting Buhari but Nigeria against neo-colonialists.

Certain African countries including South Africa has already pulled out of ICC, but the dullard of a president don't have a clue.

When Sowore decided to ditch CUPP, people were criticizing him. It was obvious from start that CUPP was formed to promote specific. It's obvious that the game female aspirant, Eunice, is the one that has been promoting Atiku through CUPP.

Heartbender:
Since when did legal fees become "questionable funds" and subject to investigation? Na wa o

Stupid. It was the governor that won his case, not the Akwa Ibom State Government. His court case is his personal business and tge legal fees has to come from his personal account, not from the state govt account. The Akwa Ibom State govt is separate entity from the governor.

A lot of thrash talk by those who only watch soccer on TV. Pele stands out because he was a complete player, and won three world cups, and one of these as the youngest player ever in the World cup. Yes, Messi is a wizard on a soccer pitch but to be the all time greatest you must have multiple qualities and world cup to show for it. I mean, look at Maradona during his time. He singlehandedly won the world cup for Argentina by inspiring his teammates. I can't even say Messi is better than Maradona. Only those who saw Maradona live during his hay days would know this. Not by just watching couple of YouTube clips.

It was even more difficult then to be an attacker unlike now because then there weren't rules protecting attackers on the pitch. Now all you have to do to get the referees sympathy is to fall down without any opposing player touching you. Pele days as players were tougher and more demanding physically.

Sirheny007:
Since Yorubas claim they are the most unbiased and credible voters,
why dont they rally around Sowore?
I believe he is better than this crooked pastorized midget of a VP Osinbade

Who tell you Sowore is even Yoruba. He is from Ijaw part of Ondo State. And does that really matter?

savior22:
Black Americans are piece of shlt, Why will any Nigerian give a shlt about what they think about us?work on your self esteem nigga

I won't call any human being a piece of shit. Because, if I do, it says a lot about me. That I am likely one as well. As we know, it's only a classless president that could refer to a country or entire continent as shithole.

nijabazaar:
I am so ashamed to be a Nigeria...see the comments about us. The Americans, including the Blacks see as as horde of uncivilized savages...

Really, something is wrong with us.

You better educate yourself and don't be influenced by how people see you. Your issue should be "how do you see yourself". What should people like us who have worked with their high and low do. Put our heads in the sand? First thing is to have knowledge of those passing the comments. You can't have a sensible discussion with most of them because what America as a country has turned them to. Ignorant! So, raise your shoulder and your head high. There is nothing wrong being a Nigerian. Most of them have a complex dealing with Nigerians because an average Nigerian in the USA is most likely an high achiever. Let's deal with our mess back home. But that should not rob us of our dignity.

As someone who reside in North America, I have to let you know that virtually all of those Americans commenting on Nigeria have no clue about Nigeria except what they read or see on western media and the internet. These are the kind of people that ask you how you arrive America from Africa, like "did you take an aeroplane here". It sound funny but people have been asked these kind of questions before. So, you are talking about an extremely ignorant set of people. If Americans can name their American football league "World Series", what does that tell you of the people.
