Grayoso:


Indeed. BAT is a brilliant man. Everything he does is about results.

A lot of people follow bandwagon of general statements. Who can deny Buhari's success in infrastructure?

So if I say I will build on somebody's success and immediately mentioned the area of success, I have done my part. The understanding is your problem, not mine.

Rilwayne001:
One step at a time. I like the sequential way he’s giving the media attention. Not bringing everything all at one.

This is how logic and sense works, and the more reason why the Tinubu force is not something just anybody can stop.

And I’m certain Tinubu will not build on the failure of Buhari. Tinubu is educated, and will certainly not bring illiterates to his team like Buhari did.

These people are the real progressives.

You can see he was categorical about Buhari's successes especially in infrastructure. Don't join the bandwagon of haters.

NoSentiment:


shege for shege.

LEEMAO. Correct 100%

That was handiwork of IPOB propaganda wing. Unfortunately, our mumu SW people fell for it.

I must give it to IPOB, they tried.

T9ksy:




Simply for his political expediency.
Same reason why osinbajo has kept mute all this while. In fact, all our southern politicians are in the same boat- they are not prepared to upset their slave-masters in Abuja.

You people need to cure yourselves of inferiority complex to the Fulas.

NaijirianKing:
Tinubu's real problem is that the religious dynamic is simply not in his favor.

Muslims from the south create a unique problem for themselves politically due to the fact that they either have to run with a Muslim-Muslim ticket to the chagrin of the Christian population in this nation. The Christian population is already in the minority according to the last census, which may or may not be accurate, but it is all we have to go by.

As such, most candidates have to balance the religious aspects of their candidacy, and a Muslim southerner has to run with a Christian Northerner, which of course is reduces the likelihood of success.

Osibnajo likewise has problems if PDP indeed runs a Northern Muslim, as a southern pastor, he is at a natural disadvantage in the North as a Muslim will garner more votes among Muslims. If the SW was wise they would back the SS by returning Goodluck, or throw their weight behind an Igbo man, which is impossible for them. Or they could simply forget this southern presidency scam and field a strong Northerner like El Rufai, but greed has blinded their eyes to political realities.

You are canvassing for power to remain in the north, yet accusing SW of greed. Are you an idiot? Who is greedy here.

Painment

Ttalk:


Asgard, It's too early to change moniker, we are keenly following your rants and would be here to mock you when all your emotional rants fall on your face.

Are you new here in political section? These guys will just deactivate and register another moniker. Na their way be dat.

The love of tie and AC.

Nigeria no go fit win this diplomatic row....we don bite more we can chew...


They know they have us by the blockos, many European countries have already banned us due to the corona omicron outbreak, the only luxury place left for the Elites and Middle Class to flex their money is UAE...how many of their citizens come to Nigeria for business or Pleasure...

Nigeria you fought a good fight, its now time to cave in and negotiate.,,,we are living in past glory, the only time NIgeria was a force in the committee of nations was in the 70s and 80s, currently we are a carricature of the Giant of Africa

Rubbish

Have some pride man.

backbencher:


In my opinion, most of the economic issues and youth problems we experience in this country are largely due to being an economy of 'selling raw materials and sharing the money'

Nigeria has always been said to be 'blessed with raw materials' ...but what we do is sell them, and share the money. This is then used to import and import...which has a nice way of stifling industrial growth...and leading to lack of job creation

Also, we use the same revenue from importing to pay for everything, including subsides on petrol and power...meaning that everyone thinks of the economy as a national cake to be shared, not as a national cake to be baked...so fueling corruption and bitterness from those 'left out'

My problem with Buhari, and with all of his predecessors...regardless of tribe or religion...is that they have done nothing much to change that paradigm.

We can no longer rely on selling raw materials to make a living. The revenue is not enough to sustain all of us because we don't sell enough of the raw materials to fund ourselves, and it is never at a price that can sustain us.

It is because the revenue isn't enough that we have 'crisis'. That's why we must stop relying on selling raw materials and stop sharing the money economics, and become an industrial, productive, and job producing nation.

You are right except at the bolded. Buhari has made so much concerted effort to diversify the economy.

StreetFight:
There is only one political leader in Yoruba land. his name is Bola Ahmed Tinubu. If he gives Osinbajo the go-ahead, then Osinbajo will declare. If Tinubu does not give Osinbajo the go-ahead and Osinbajo tries it, Osinbajo will be disgraced.

Things like this are better left unsaid.

So true.

rayvelez:
Thr was indeed a massacred at Lekki toll gate. The army know, Sanwo-olu know, Tinubu and lastly Buhari know.

America knows

NGpatriot:
They want a better Nigeria, they want to be the leaders of tomorrow, but when called upon to lead and put their money where their mouth is, they choked, they showed the world how childish, immature and unprepared they are for the leadership role.

Endsars or no Endsars, our main goal is and should be PEACE no matter what, you can walk today and still hold on to your ideals and principles, but instead of grabbing the opportunity to show the world how competent and committed they are to their ideals and convictions, they responded childishly, they responded with puerile tantrums, they responded with odious and gutter utterances.

Maybe the governor set them up with the invitation by giving them the rope to hang themselves with, or to show the world how childish and unprepared the so-called leaders of tomorrow are.

Governo Sanwo Olu - 2

ENDSARS crowd - 0

To be candid, the governor gave those non-entities undeserved attention. I blame Sanwo here.

TheBanker23:
Anyone here from Middle-Belt Nigeria (North Central is just a political name), will agree with me that we are one of the most marginalized and deprived groups in Nigeria. It may surprise some of you to know that we are being designated 'Northerners' for wicked political purposes. Other things you need to know:

1. We have the highest number of Ethnic Groups, with Plateau State having more than a hundred languages.

2. Majority is Christian (Probably the reason for their wicked sidelining). The wicked Ones will not agree to this

3. It is the hotspot for Jihadist, Boko Haram attacks. They want to completely conquer it and then head for Southern Nigeria.

4. As it is now, the middle-belt is the reason Northern Nigeria is still surviving (to say the least). Please don't ask me how

5. They will never allow a president to come from the middle belt, because, Kasala go burst.

The wicked will know no peace!

DROPS MIC

Who will not allow, is it not election anymore. Are they being stopped from contesting?

Baawaa:
Where is atikulooting groups, oh they have not receive money

Atiku's supporters demand money before they function while Tinubu's supporters are happy using their won money to support Tinubu.

Big difference.

HURIWA, IPOB human rights wing.
Yeye dey smell.

JAMO84:
You people will never understand me.


Whenever something happens, majority analyse who is in charge, who ought to stop it from happening. I analyse why it happens. There's a big difference between incompetence and circumstances.

You don't have to respond to emotional blackmail joor.

vedaxcool:


Yet most of you who pays stipends to get university education claim your country did nothing for you! It is alright.

So true. And You will hear them broadcasting their ignorance on top of their voices.

Emiya:


you mean instead of Saturday and Sundays?

you're just reversing the very problem you're trying to point out...


if what you are saying is that the two religions cannot , in principle, co-exist .. that you want an Islamic state , you want sharia , you want want to establish political, Islam..
then you will be @ odds with other religions within the union

that is the reason in the first place we say religion must be put aside from the present nigerian Govt and the Govt must never impede the religion .. that Nigeria is Secular
anyone is free to worship as he deems fit ... any one is free to live as he wants..

you are not deceiving anyone .. your intention is to Islamize everything.. so its natural that there'll be opposition to your agenda..

not my problem

I just asked you a question, I didn't say it has to be Thursday and Friday as an example. Now supposing we agree we are running secular Yorubaland, could you suggest weekend days for the country for example?

Geovanni412:
The naked truth is this - discrimination exists everywhere. It is highly unexpected for a Muslim Igbo man from Abia State or Anambra State to win any election in the area. Such a person will likely be treated badly in a lot of social circles in that area. It is trite to state that Northern Christians suffer a great deal of marginalisation from their Muslim brothers. Doesn't it strike a chord that there are very few key positions held by Christians who are Northerners in the country?
If you want to reduce or eliminate discrimination, you have to attack and change the education of a particular group of people.
And in a liberal society, that may not work because the parents and people around will still feed the children with their beliefs of what is right or wrong - this is part of the reason why osu 'caste' system still subsists till date.
The only way to stop people from changing their cultural thinking very quickly is this - the state would have to detain people, torture them and then brainwash them into having certain beliefs. In my view,i don't think a police state of this nature is ideal for society.
The more [b]sustainable option is to create a highly functioning profit- oriented society.[/b] There is no person, no matter how racist or tribalistic he is, that will want to do something that is inimical to his economic interest. Donald Sterling, one-time owner of la clippers was racist but he had a black man, Doc Rivers as the team's coach. Also, at least 70 percent of the NBA (us basketball league) players are black men.
Competence will always outstrip discrimination. Nigeria has a system built on [b]kleptocracy and not on competence and that is why we will continue to have high levels of discrimination[/b].

Wow

na these people ask Tinubu to nominate Osinbajo for VP? Yeye

Emiya:
Yoruba folks , the Muslims do not even affiliate / see themselves on the same pedestal as the northern Muslims..
its literally two different brands of the same thing..

plus if you don't know Nigeria is supposed to be a secular state ..
.. a future Yoruba nation if things end up that way, will be completely secular and liberal.. we do not persecute each other...

.... these so called "Yoruba Muslim or Christian" you talk of... will rather chose a union with each other, than be in a place where they will be masacared by ethnic northern islamist !

Will this new secular country accept weekend to be Thursday and Friday for example?

Aganju849:


Did you know that to northern muslims, even tho you're a muslim like them you're still a kaffir so long as you're from the south?

Oya go to the north and complain about muslim-on-muslim bigotry/tribalism, let us see if you come back with that big empty head still on your shoulders.

Why does he have to go to north to prove being muslim? Is north where they determine who is muslim or not?

Face the topic, Islamophobia in Yorubaland. This has nothing to do with north.

Tinububalls:
The Yorubas made mistakes in 2015 and 2019 voting for Buhari to spite Goodluck. Now it's our turn to make the same mistake. Remember nobody is above mistakes.

Who told you Yorubas made mistake? We are currently 2 and 4.

We will not be distracted

slawormiir:
Damnnn niggarrrr
That niggarrrr ain't got no joy

Funny enough...if na Nigeria him for nor even get angry to that extent
Overseas ehnn...there are different things that make you mad...over there you can't escape paying bills..that one alone can turn someone into a madman...
Here in Nigeria....we avoid and escape paying bills...in Nigeria a jobless man can be happy but over there in Overseas you dare not....in Nigeria you can be jobless and still be packaging...but Overseas...you can't...sometimes you go just see niggarrrrs for beer parlour in Nigeria with forty bottles on the table dey jolly and happy..your mind go dey....you go dey feel say all niggarrrrs on that table are loaded, employed with cash.....forwhere...only one niggar there out of the six niggarrrrs on that table na im get money....

You are a real nigcah

AkalaJ:
Op, after all your anti-Tinubu rant, you still didn't tell us who you would prefer as your president. Last time I checked, Tinubu has not stopped anyone from contesting, heck he hasn't even declared his interest, yet you people are developing epilepsy on top his matter. Na wah! In a democracy anyone is free to contest. Stop this obsession with Tinubu and rather promote your own preferred candidate.

At the rate some of them are going, we will have two candidates to choose from;

(i) Tinubu
(ii) Anti-Tinubu

Icouldhave:

how would I know, I don't stay with them only got complains from my mom ending of last year.
he's my dad we respect him very much, that's why we looking for a reasonable way to sort this out.


the last time the family sat and deliberate on this issue, my elder brother asked him if my mom was the one visiting another man, how would he feel.

after that day he didn't talk with my brother close to a month.

You and your brother are foolish.
