Ironfaceman: This Somali woman has been giving Trump nightmares on elm street. Strong woman though. But many Nigerians are hypocrites, they just love Trump's dictatorship but hate Tinubus democracy As in they love to see dictatorship but abhor Tinubus reelection. The Lord is a God of knowledge by him actions are weighed.
Shedrack777: she fine, get better job no means say konji no dey hold her. And for her choice of man to sleep with, don't forget some women are sleeping with mad men. Everyone with his choice
Na so o. No be so we dey use tribalism choose Stockholm Syndrome suffering under the guise of sharing the national cake of corruption?
Image123: Didn't mention otherwise. It takes consistency to build. You either have a good leader for a long time or consistently good leaders following a master plan. Countries better than us have had that history, we've never been that lucky. We've been riddled with topsyturvy policy and political flip flop leadership.
Do you mean flip flop leadership like Tinubu who called Buhari expired in 2011, when he tried and failed to use kachalla Ribadu to deny Nigerians another four years of PDP prosperity and cheap petrol?
Did the topsy-turvy balablu bulaba clueless town hall clown, package the same Buhari as APC change messiah four years later, to destroy our country?
Atlantis585: Word! The other two are known criminals.
How is Obi not a criminal
Have you seen his monorail that was launched four years before he handed Anambra over to his Fidelity Bank protégé, in a failed attempt to be the godfather master planner of the state, like Tinubu in Lagos?
ANAMBRA State government has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with an Canada-based company, Globim Corporation, for the finance, design, construction and operation of monorail system in the commercial city of Onitsha.
Governor Peter Obi signed for the state government, while the chairman of Globim, Dr. Jude Igwemezie, signed for the company during a brief ceremony at Government House, Awka.
Report: How Peter Obi as Anambra governor failed to declare assets kept in tax havens
Peter Obi, former governor of Anambra state, kept secret assets in tax havens, a series of leaked documents has shown.
The leaked files which were retrieved from 14 offshore services firms around the world were revealed in a Pandora Papers project led by the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists (ICIJ), and which Premium Times is a part of.
In his response, the former governor told Premium Times: “I don’t declare what is owned with others. If my family owns something I won’t declare it. I didn’t declare anything I jointly owed with anyone.”
In 2010, more than four years after Obi became governor, he reportedly set up his first discreet company in the British Virgin Island, and named the company Gabriella Investments Limited, after his daughter.
To set up what has now become a convoluted business structure, Obi, Premium Times reported first approached Acces International, a secrecy enabler in Monaco, France, to help him incorporate an offshore entity in one of the world’s most notorious tax havens noted for providing conduits for wealthy and privileged corrupt political elites to hide stolen cash.
According to the newspaper, Obi also paid Acces International to provide nominee directors for the company — these directors are residents of tax havens paid to sit on boards of companies to hide the identities of real owners of offshore firms.
Acces International officials, who reportedly took briefs from Obi and or his representatives, headed to the British Virgin Island where they contracted a local registered agent – Aleman Cordero Galindo & Lee Trust (BVI) Limited (Alcogal) — to set up Gabriella Investments Limited for the former governor.
ogolemati: you don't have any love in you for Nigerians, continue with your copy and paste like those programmed APC robots .if you are those delegates that receives Dubai landlord money return it
I have more love for Nigerians than Obi has for the country and its people.
anonimi: Anambra doctors call off strike after 13 months February 28, 2012
After over a year of down tools, Anambra State Government employed medical doctors have finally called of strike. According to Dr. Emma Ekwesianya, Chairman Anambra State chapter of Nigeria Medical Association (NMA), the striking doctors decided to pick up tools again because of the plight of the ordinary people in the societ. “It is true, we have called off the strike. We have just signed the agreement with government about an hour ago. The Secretary to the State Government (SSG) signed for the government. A technical committee, headed by Prof. O.O. Mbonu was set up to execute the agreement.” He confirmed.
“We decided to take the 60 per cent offered by government because of our people. Government has been rigid and we do not want to continue with the rigidity of government. We are serving the people, not government and our people are suffering.” Speaking further, Ekwesianya, revealed that a technical committee, headed by Prof. O.O. Mbonu had also been set up by the association to see to the implementation of the agreement with government sequel to the signing of the Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the Peter Obi-led government on Monday.
Chief Medical Director, Anambra State University Teaching Hospital (ASUTH), Amaku, Awka, Dr. Lawrence Ikeakor also confirmed the new development: “Well I’m happy to tell you that the strike has been amicably resolved, even though, like you said, it’s been a prolonged one but suffice it to say that it has been resolved and the doctors have resumed work.” “The call off was yesterday (Sunday). The doctors had some negotiations and held their congress yesterday, during which they agreed to call off the strike. So they resumed duty today. They are in their clinic. Well, I was not privy to the agreement but I will say that our representatives were satisfied with the arrangement, hence they decided to call off the strike.” He disclosed.
newsbook: Anambra State governor, Chief Willie Obiano has re-echoed his allegation that his predecessor, Mr Peter Obi demanded the sum of N7.5billion from him for sponsoring his election in 2013.
Obiano and his predecessor, Obi have had a frosty relationship shortly after his swearing in.
Obi has however denied that he demanded for the sum of N7.5billion from Obiano, saying that his problem with him was his (Obiano’s) underperformance.
Obi said if he needed the said sum, he would have simply taken it from the N75billion he left for the Obiano administration at the end of his tenure.
But Governor Obiano while speaking on Wednesday evening at Ezechima Primary School, Onitsha where he inaugurated his reelection campaigns in Onitsha North Council Area, said the clarification became necessary because of the recent accusations against him by the former Governor.
He stated that his predecessor had demanded the sum of N7.5billion from him as funds spent in prosecuting the election on his behalf, but that he refused to pay the money because it was not true.
Obiano said he refused to pay because he strongly believed that public funds should be used for public good, and not to settle godfathers.
These, he said, was the reason they fell apart.
The governor said that another reason he refused to pay the money was because he was aware that enough money was raised for his campaign by his friends and associates, all of which were never accounted for by the former governor.
On the actual sum the former Governor claimed he left behind, Governor Obiano made it clear that he inherited liability of about N127 billion debt from him in contracts awarded and other responsibilities, which he has been religiously undertaking in the spirit of continuity.
He said Obi flagged off several roads even on the day he was leaving office and saddled him with the burden of paying for it, but he assured the people that he has his eyes on the ball and will not allow anything to distract him from fulfilling his promises.
The Chairman of the Governor’s Re-election Campaign Committee, Chief Victor Umeh said APGA as the political spirit of Ndigbo, has in the past three and half years, availed Anambra good governance at its best, reminding the people that the upcoming guber election was not about Willie Obiano but about ensuring that the state remained free from political godfatherism.
A former Central Bank Governor, Professor Chukwuma Soludo in his speech said that at this time, the State needs a tested hand like Governor Obiano who has the experience and expertise to effectively steer her affairs.
jaxxy: U are aware atiku is a big thief right? U know he is only going there to loot?
Why is Obi inot aware of this
anonimi: The Vice presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, Mr. Peter Obi has advised Nigerians not to allow few politicians determine the future of the country but see themselves as stakeholders by being actively involved in the forthcoming general election.
Mr. Peter Obi stated this while addressing members of the Igbo Community in Benin on why Alhaji Atiku Abubakar should be elected as president.
NLCreator: Peter Obi, presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP) in the 2023 elections, has defended the purchase of sports utility vehicles (SUVs) for members of the national assembly.
There have been reports that the leadership of the 10th national assembly has bought SUVs for all lawmakers.
Each SUV is said to be valued at N160 million.
The LP had asked members of the party in the national assembly to kick against “wastage”.
While responding to questions during a press conference in Abuja on Monday, the former governor of Anambra said the SUVs are not personal cars of the lawmakers, noting that they are for official use.
“Let me start with the issue of Labour Party members in the house. I have actually discussed this issue with them,” Obi said.
“Surprisingly, I can tell you I heard that these vehicles are official cars. They have to use it. It is meant for office.
“So it is not as if it is their vehicle. They said it is official cars and you are meant to use it while you are in the senate.”
Obi also hinted at contesting for the country’s number one position in 2027, adding that Nigeria deserves dedicated and visionary leaders who will lead the country towards a brighter future.

Tinubu has gone.
How can Tinubu go anywhere with his rainbow 🌈 coalition winning bye elections everywhere
The divided and unserious opposition are not a match to the a-looter master strategist of our tribalistic propaganda politics that is transactional.
goslowgoslow: A beg go and rest with your zenselezz comment! All the past governors of Lagos State did well Lagos is not easy to govern with the population and other problems. Una own nor dey pass mentioning Tinubu and looting nothing meaningful to say. At the end if people like you have opportunities you will do the worst, hypokrits.
Are you doing worse already with the opportunity you have, where you are? Abi kíni ìtumọ̀ àpèjúwe yìí?
Do you consider Lagos’ huge IGR from the population, as a problem
MrSly: I not from Abia State and I don't live there. I am from Anambra and that is where I live. Soludo is below bar. Judging from testimony of Abia people Otti is doing well and my assertion is based on it. I went to IMO state on Friday and came back to Anambra on Sunday. I met some of my friends from IMO who live in Abia and their testimony about Otti is the same. If people who live there says so then it is so because they are not party people.
What did your friends say about the number of teachers and other civil servants employed by Otti?
How many of such workers have been employed by Soludo?
Wike understands politics so well, thats why, unlike some who have no political value rather than social media insults, and rigious bias,with their fake love for nigeria.I thank God for social media, na so i for dey follow them based on religion.

anonimi: The eyesore on Bourdillon Road 2nd January 2025
Beyond his neighbours, there is something about the sight of people hanging around a president’s residence that does not speak well of his leadership capabilities. Maybe no one has nudged him to see it, but the impression that spectacle on Bourdillon Road generates is that Tinubu enjoys the sight of suffering humans and thrives in—and through— their poverty.
If all these years, impoverished people hang around you and you remain comfortable enough to keep them just so they can be handed tokens of your large heart, then it means you have a pro-poverty mindset. Such a frame of mind is oriented toward cultivating poverty rather than stimulating abundance.
That is why he could unproblematically relate the story of his “friend” who went from using five Rolls Royce to a far-less valued car and not consider the import of the nonsense he was saying. That spurious account was an indication that this is a man for whom poverty—of others, not himself—is an ideal.
NaijaRoyalty: …Says Buhari doesn’t have my kind of money
However, Buhari doesn’t have the kind of money I can steal neither does he have the money I can collect. He doesn’t even have the money for Lagos votes. So, whatever I promise, it’s for real and is coming from my pocket. It’s not until I go to Alausa before I get money to give you.”
Addressing APC supporters on the need to deliver votes, Tinubu said handsome cash rewards await those who can deliver votes for the party.
He said he would not make mistakes of the past where people would collect money in advance and not deliver on election day.
Tinubu added, “Those of you that say you come to Bourdillon for mobilisation, it is mobilisation that we are doing here or don’t you understand? Definitely, if you know people in your neighbourhood, our members, how we used to do.
Kushites: THANK YOU. HE SHOULD FLY OLD AND DANGEROUS PLANES, RIDE IN KEKE AND LIVE IN A DECREPIT HOUSE BECAUSE HE IS ANSWERING PRESIDENT. ABEG GO AND SIT DOWN. NONSENSE. WHEN IT REACHES YOUR TURN TO BE PRESIDENT, YOU CAN BUY KEKE TO BE USING, AND LIVE IN FACE-ME-I-FACE-YOU, SO WE CAN CLAP FOR YOU AND CALL YOU ANGEL GABRIEL.
Why should he do anything like that when he has Stockholm syndrome sufferers dogmatically loving it?
HacheNoire: A brilliant one coming from The Demigod- His Excellency, President Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu (GCFR)! We will never return to Egypt. We will balance our economy and make it thrive by adaptive principles that apply to our challenges. At count 250 million, we shouldn’t have subsidy on the table and should be taxing ourselves for a better tomorrow! We not obliged or mandated to reap from sacrifices we make, but knowing a generation after us will reap the tremendous benefits is enough reason to keep persevering. We on course and every international and accredited financial institution has applauded. Not ONE criticized our economic policy’s. I am not acting like I don’t know it’s difficult and painful, but I know its right and the last option for economic redemption.
What is brilliant about being a wicked, propagandist liar.
Why has Tinubu failed to crash petrol prices below N185 promised despite paying subsidy illegally to importers of fuel from their Malta blending platforms?
Do you know why he failed to deliver the promised crash for three years until the Iran war started?
Lanruze: If PBAT will loose his second term bid, He will have no other people to blame but the following people who have taken a conscious effort to de-marketing him excellently.
1, Oluremi Tinubu - With her spontaneous and improperly thought out phrases on the Nigerian electorate.
2, Bayo Onanuga - Running the most uncouth and unrefined jabs unprovoked at political opposition with an adversory approach thus making the C-in-C unlikable.
3, Reno Omokri- Self styled wannabe publicist and PR stunts man put up an irritating propaganda machinery after working for Alhaji Atiku and failed. A pen for hire and one of the most predictable jobmen in the PBAT regime. Denied ambassadorial acceptance in Mexico.
4, Daniel Bwala: Seems to have been bewitched with the use of words and phrases. Had an embarrassing edition with Mehdi Hasan with a viewership of over 2m YouTube views caught lying tounge in cheek.
5, Engr. David Umahi : His bold and emphatic statement to his South East brothers quoted as "Don't vote for Peter Obi" is currently being termed as the biggest betrayal of the S/E Presidential ambition having been starved of National prominence for 60yrs as Presidency and not even a VP slot Post '99 Democratic rule.
6, Prof. Chukwuma Charles Soludo: The Allegations of the Finances by Soludo and the Godfather of his Children debate has been taken as going too far to diminish the image of the NDC candidate whilst Debt Management Office (DMO) has debunked the debt issue saying Soludo's figure are way above the recorded debt stock of Anambra state during POs handover date.
7, Twenty Three (23) Million Poverty Striken Nigerians : The World Bank, IMF and recently the EU has affirmed than indeed Nigeria has the highest number of multidimensional poor and vulnerable people in the whole world. Since PBAT assumed power, 23 million additional people have slid into the poverty trap based on the reforms including the PMS subsidy removal, electricity tarrif hikes and insecurity. Within same three (3) years period India has successfully lifted 300million people out of poverty through a sequenced productivity and industrial growth.
What is there to demarket in a total and complete failure like Tinubu?
Can you tell us what promise he has fulfilled in solving the problems created and worsened by the predecessor he alone made president
Elusive001: Bros, whatever you call it is not the issue. For the chicken, its feathers were removed by Stalin as written in the story.
On the contrary, for these folks, their own slavery is not induced. It is natural. It is in their DNA. It is not taught or forced. It flows naturally. It is factory-fitted, follow-come.
Being born free or not being a slave to anyone is strange to them. They abhor any and everyone who is not enslaved to another human being. It is their lot in life.
If they are not slaves to Mr. A, then they must look for Mr. B to be slaves to. The bottom-line is that THEY MUST BE SLAVES TO SOMEONE.
How much of this understanding are you enlightening others about, so that the nature can evolve, as it has in previously feudal Europe
IGBOPROMISE1: The harsh Nigerian socio-economic environment has brutalised a lot of people and has made them desensitised, devoid of moral scruples and lacking in empathy! Upbringing also has a lot to do with it, because when parents are bad or distracted from bringing up their kids with proper guidance, boundaries, love and affection, the result is what we’re seeing today….too many evil, unfeeling, jealous and hateful people walking about and being the norm rather than the exception! This results of this malaise are seen reflected in virtually all aspects of national life: education, politics, governance, religion, etc
Is this excellent description of what we are now, due to our tribalistic politics of zoning and rotating offices in local, state and federal governments in both legislative and executive branches?
Rotational sharing of the national cake.
Is there anything we can do to change this situation? Or we are completely screwed and unable to do anything about it, such that we might be better off asking for recolonisation instead of doing japa?
anonimi: Neo-black Problem: Must Blacks Be Ruled by Whites in Order to Prosper?
In short, the neo-black dilemma may be framed as follows: is it better to live under white rule without political dignity but with basic life-sustaining standards for many;
or to live under black rule with illusory political dignity and without basic life- sustaining standards for the majority? @ @ The path forward for Africa lies in cultivating higher and adequate levels of personal and communal agential integrity as well as full personal responsibility and productivity. Not to mention creativity (including epistemic creativity), productive justice (such as merit and freedom), harmony and reconciliation at local and international levels, and a proper domestication of capitalism and other related values and institutions.
Africa must stop wasting her time on dreams of socialism because it is a system of wealth distribution primarily. Whereas, capitalism is a system of wealth creation primarily, and wealth has to be produced before it can be distributed.
Cos he a grassroot politician, he has the youth, elders and billionaires and who is who in Lagos politics behind him.
Are they behind him to continue the wrecking ball of Tinubu’s a-looter master plan for Lagos?
The plan has grown the state budget 100 times to N4.2 trillion over the past 27 years, from squeezing out higher IGR through greater tax burden on people.
Do you know why Tinubu, Fashola, Ambode and Sanwo Olu have failed to achieve a tiny fraction of what UPN progressive governor Jakande did in just 4 years of comparative chicken change? Is it not ironic that Buhari jailed Jakande for corruption in 1984 but handed over to the worst rogue politician four decades later?
Splashme: The first civilian governor of Lagos State, Alhaji Lateef Jakande, on Tuesday, said that the cancellation of the Lagos metroline project in 1985 was a major mistake and disservice to many Nigerians.
Jakande spoke in Lagos during the launch of a book which chronicled his life in politics and journalism.
The book, entitled, ‘Jakande: Leadership in Action’ is written by Dr. Bola Olaosebikan, who told the audience at the event that the All Progressives Congress presidential candidate, Maj. Gen. Muhammadu Buhari (retd.), was not responsible for the cancellation of the project.
Jakande said, “Reflecting on the metroline project, I think it is a major disservice to many Nigerians. Imagine how many people would have benefitted. It would have made life easier and changed the face of transport in Lagos. Whoever cancelled it or gave the advice towards its cancellation didn’t do right.”
The former governor asked Nigerians not to vote for unserious leaders in the coming polls, saying the elections presented Nigerians with a good opportunity that should not be squandered.
Expressing the hope that Nigeria would soon overcome its developmental challenges, Jakande said hope would be actualised faster if credible people emerged as leaders in the next dispensation.
He said, “This book comes at a very auspicious time in Nigeria’s history as we need leaders who can act. We need leaders who would not compromise the standards of good governance. God has blessed this nation the most in Africa, although we have not reached where we should be; with the right leaders, Nigeria would overcome its challenges.”

WHO SAYS 4 YEARS IN OFFICE IS NOT ENOUGH FOR MEANINGFUL ACHIEVEMENTS?
IT'S A FACT THAT 90% OF GOVERNORS IN NIGERIA SINCE 1999 WITH REVENUES AT THEIR DISPOSAL CANNOT BOAST OF A QUARTER OF THESE ACHIEVEMENTS EVEN WITHIN THEIR EIGHT YEARS IN OFFICE.
How is this a replacement for his failure in 8 years to employ enough well paid healthcare workers to make basic medical care available free for everyone

Former Senator for Kaduna Central, Shehu Sani, has endorsed the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) 2023 presidential flag bearer, Atiku Abubakar for the presidency.
The former lawmaker announced his endorsement in a Twitter post on Monday, advising the former vice president to choose a VP that can work with him as a team.
Sani wrote, “The opposition primaries is done.
“All aspirants, party members and Nigerians who want…(I wanted to write Change but I changed my mind) a new united, peaceful & prosperous Nigeria should rally round the Candidate Atiku Abubakar.

The alliance that produced Azikiwe and Balewa in 1960, Shagari and Ekwueme in 1979 and 1983.
The alliance returned in 1999 to produce Obasanjo and Atiku’s PDP deregulation and privatisation prosperity team. It lasted through Yar’Adua and Jonathan with Sambo until Tinubu started looking for cows. 🐄

WizardOfNG: Interesting read. Shehu Sani is a highly intelligent chap always reasonable, progressive and focused on what is best for his nation and Nigerians.
His talk about rotation of power is spot on and he makes the same point I make always which is that truncating it, by a Northerner winning during what is the slot of the South, is a development taking us into uncharted waters.
Of course, predictably the South, especially the SW, will be disgruntled with Nigeria and likely to agitate and become restive creating a difficult tenure for whoever is President and likely setting Nigeria on the part of break-up.
Yorubas are capable of achieving it as they are never ready to be second class to anyone which the end of rotation will signify since the North can keep power perpetually.
We saw Yorubas move over the Abiola Saga and Against Abacha with actions ultimately culminating in Yoruba 1999 Presidency and the creation of rotation itself for future and lasting peace and equity between North and South.
We cannot forget only Yoruba leaders had the ball to demand regional autonomy under Buhari in 2021 when 5 APC Governors, from Buhari's own Party, and one Non-APC Governor demanded Six autonomous regions for Nigeria.
The North and the world already knows what Yorubas are thinking. Atiku and those behind him are just selfish, inconsiderate and unreasonable people who do not care what is best for Nigeria. Many of those people, as Sani hinted, host personal vendetta against Tinubu,
Ironically on NL , with the likes of Aminda and Odin13 plus Anonimi etal, and in Nigeria it is not surprising it is people from one region of the South , who have traditionally hostwd deep feelings of vendetta against PBAT and the Yorubas, supporting Atiku.
Thhey simply have never cared for equity and fairness plus whatever secures peace and progress for Nigeria. As Sani warns, we should be careful.
Some might be happy with always playing second fiddle and being second class, Yorubas won't accept it. Especially having being honourable always and doing everything to keep the peace and unity of Nigeria while others, I.e North and SE, have historically, and till today, always threatened that very same peace and unity.with their actions.
