Oh, boy! Stop disturbing that guy.
He's not your governor.
If you want your governor to do something for you, make your way to the government house.

FreeStuffsNG:
Wow!!! Truly epic.

Dear fellow patriotic Nigerians, I plead with you to vote Asiwaju Tinubu. Asiwaju Tinubu is extremely capable and competent to lead Nigeria to greater heights.

INTRODUCTION
Bola Ahmed Tinubu was elected Senator for the Lagos West constituency in Lagos State, Nigeria in 1993, he also was elected governor of Lagos State (1999 – 2007). He is said to be among Nigeria’s most successful politicians ever. He is currently the national leader of the ruling party in Nigeria, All Progressive Congress (APC).



EARLY LIFE AND BACKGROUND
Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu was born in Lagos, Nigeria to the illustrious Tinubu Family of Lagos State. He attended St. John's Primary School, Aroloya, Lagos and Children's Home School in Ibadan, South West of Nigeria. Tinubu then went to the United States in 1975. He attended Richard Daley College, Chicago Illinois, where he earned himself a place in the honors list of the College. He subsequently proceeded to the Chicago State University, Illinois where he obtained a Bachelor’s degree in Business Administration (Accounting and Management).



During his undergraduate years, he was honored with the Outstanding Student’s Award, The University Scholar’s Award and the Certificate of Merit in Accounting and Finance.

On his arrival in the U.S. in 1975 and with the support of an ever-adoring mother, this courageous youth, faced with an unflinching zeal to succeed, took on such menial jobs as dishwashing, night-guard and cab-driving to see himself through the initial difficulties of school at the Richard Daley College, Chicago, Illinois.

The brilliance of this young Nigerian showed in his ability to make the honours’ list of Richard Daley College. He subsequently transferred to the Chicago State University, Illinois, graduating with honours in 1979 and earning a Bachelor’s Degree in Business Administration (Accounting and Management). During his first year in Chicago State University, young Bola was given the rare privilege to partly teach other students of his Faculty remedial tutorial classes. Most of his colleagues and contemporaries at the university attributed their improved grades to his tutorial lectures.

Throughout his undergraduate years, young Bola was on the Dean’s List and was honoured with the Outstanding Student’s Award, the University Scholar’s Award and the Certificate of Merit in Accounting and Finance. He was also awarded the prestigious Sumna cum laude for scoring 3.54 out of possible 4.0 GP.

With his successful academic profile, young Bola contested and won his first political election as the President of the Accounting Society of the institution in his final year at the University.

Upon graduation with honours and several awards, Bola Tinubu cut his professional teeth at the American-based Arthur Anderson, Deloitte Haskins and Sells (now called Deloitte Haskins and Touche) and GTE Service Corporation – the largest Communication and Utility Company in the United States of America.

Meanwhile, at Deloitte Haskins and Sells, the young and professional Bola broadened his experience by participating in the auditing and management consultancy services of General Motors, First National Bank of Chicago, Procter and Gamble, International Harvester, GEC and other Fortune 500 firms.

After returning to Nigeria in 1983, Bola Tinubu joined Mobil Oil Nigeria, and later became an executive of the company.

Injera:
3 pillars of tribe with the largest in population abi?? Who are first class Nigerians and the other tribes with fewer populations are lesser Nigerians.
This same tribal logic of population is what led to 5 percenters and the born to rule by north. After all, All that matters is what is the population of the tribe you're from. This is pseudo democracy

AyeOpu:
Nigerians on social media have reacted to a poster with the inscription “GEJ Is Coming Back” which suggests the ambition of former President Goodluck Jonathan to contest for presidency in the 2023 elections.

The poster done by a faceless group known as the National Agenda for Goodluck Ebele Jonathan. It claimed it aimed for a better Nigeria come 2023.

However, this has been greeted with mixed reactions from citizens with many condemning Jonathan’s ambition.

This was even after the Instagram blog, mufasatundeednut, queried if Nigeria was going backwards or forward.

In her reaction, popular actress, Nkechi Blessing said she would vote for Jonathan if he chooses to run. She wrote, “I will over vote for him sef.”

Another Instagram user, @popcorrnn._ wrote, “Yesss oh, he should please come back. He had a far better government than Buhari, & it took for him to go for us to realize it, he should please come back.”

For @_james_oluwa, it is better to vote for Jonathan than any other candidate. He wrote, “It’s better to vote for him than any other candidate!! The Angel you know before is better than the one u just meet.”

However, others have shown a contrary opinion saying the former President would simply dent his image if he ran for the presidency again.

One of such users is @icobenson who said, “He will fail woefully, he didn’t maximize the opportunity given to him initially, so what does he have to offer this time absolutely NOTHING we need a fresh start. Soro Soke.”

shoes_by_shem opined: “This would be the most foolish move for him.”

Another user el_patron_wanz stated, “Dem wan package backwardness make e be like forwardness give us.”

kunle_real stated: “We're perambulating.”

comedianslimm01 said: “Can we pls stop....must everyone go and come back again.”

koin_zino Omo.. this man should just remain where he is before them go spoil his name.

rasheedahhhh said: “I see someone write "best of all"...suffer no dey tire you? Do people just follow these politicians blindly? Arrgh!”

iron_syd noted: “We saw this coming with his romance with the North and APC...they've left Tinubu behind.”

Cry cry! So when will it be the turn of calabar or igbanke man?

Aboguede:
The only problem I have about this man na em head


He must be earning a living from all this yearly presidential contesting

DubaiLandLord:
You just dey talk like pikin.

The Warri Itakpe line that will be connected to ABJ nko?

The PDP could have started the project in the South East, but they didn't.

APC can start wherever they want, how you wail is inconsequential.

The SE contribution to the FG is far below what the NW contribute.

DubaiLandLord:
This is gibberish

Development can't take place at once in all the region

Even under GEJ, Yorubas were marginalised in terms of appointments and infrastructure.

The FG can't build railway all over Nigeria in just 8 years, is not possible. PDP couldn't do up to what APC have done in 16 years.

If GEJ had been building the railway lines, maybe all the geopolitical regions in Nigeria will be connected by now.

Is not the turn of the Ibos to become the president in 2023. The APC will never microzone their presidential ticket to the South East and Nigerians won't be force in voting an Ibo candidate.

You guys can cry to the PDP to microzone to their ticket to the South East and una get APGA sef.

Let me repeat it in case you don't understand... The APC will never microzone to the South East. Men like Tinubu worked hard for the APC to get to where they are today, ibos can't just come and tell him to step down for an Ibo candidate, is not possible. If you guys will burn down your region because of that, you can go ahead.

Eriokanmi:
If they truly want progress for Nigeria, they should consider this man, if only the wolves and hyenas in the apc would want that. He's an embodiment of unity. He's far more acceptable in every region of the country than anyone else in that party.
