Democracy dividends CANNOT be obtained through ACN - Autocrats Congress of Nigeria- old men imposing their wives, kids, in-laws, relations and maybe even househelps on their party members.
Progress CANNOT come from ACN- Alliance for Corruption in Nigeria with Tinubu as their leader and Achike Udenwa as frontliner.
Shine your eyes, identify, scrutinise, select and mobilise support for your national and state assembly legislator candidates on individual merit basis NOT on party basis.

[quote author=Ileke-IdI link=topic=612973.msg7814573#msg7814573 date=1298879078]Thats what I posted last year, but someone ridiculous (cant pinpoint my finger on the person's ID) said something about their salary being too low and bla bla.
Must these doctors strike every year? Wasting lives after lives.[/quote]doctors are civil servants just as the governor, legislators, commissioners and other political jobbers, right?
can you tell us the[b] % increase of doctors' REMUNERATION since 1999 compared to those of these numerous do-nothing political jobbers[/b] including their godfather, Ashiwaju of Area Boys, ogbeni ojuyobo You will be shocked
abi they are not all affected by the same inflation etc

We need to save Fashola from his grip by voting massively for other parties in the house of assembly elections

this is the way to go.
do u know your constituency
do you know ALL the candidates for the state and national assembly for your area
have you scrutinised, selected and planned how you will support and campaign for them
don't focus on presidential and governorship only, check out the individuals who want to be your MOST direct representatives.
don't vote simply for parties otherwise you may end up with clueless wives, children, in-laws maybe even househelps of the godfathers as your legislooters.
let's have fewer legisLOOTERs and more legislators to make better laws and channel our concerns.
Let the change start with YOUR vote.

Do you know your constituency
Do you know ALL the candidates who want to be your MOST direct representatives at the Federal and State assemblies
Have you scrutinised these candidates and selected those you will be supporting
Lets have fewer legisLOOTERs and more legislators to make better laws for our country and build democratic institutions.
Don't leave it to your househelps, drivers, meiguards, touts etc to be mobilised to select lawmakers who can determine how much tax you pay and how they will spend it.
The time for CHANGE is not 2015 it is NOW!!!

what do you expect from a team described by ManU players as a perrenial training ground

dayokanu:
Wasnt Tinubu the same person who annointed Fashola for both the first term and second term or where did you get your own falsehood from?

Tinubu seems happy just passing himself of as a saint but I see you will rather have him as your god capable of annointing leaders and kings over people. I wish you and others like you plenty of luck until you shine your eyes.
As for the second term Tinubu had NO choice otherwise he will be rushing his political burial which will come to pass anyway. It is just a matter of time. Fashola's meagre performance and media savvy machine has endeared him to the low-expectation Lagos electorates and he can move to another party and win without Tinubu's pokenoseing - remember "Baba no regret" Otedola in 1991?
Jakande performed better than Fashola taking all indices into consideration, including how much revenue they had to work with. Today Jakande is a political leper in Yoruba politics for his romance with Abacha. Talk less of stinkingly corrupt ojuyobo BAT.

debosky:
The so called autocrats have produced the best governor Nigeria has seen since the return of democracy.

I see that it is by physical infrastructures and planting flowers alone that you measure performance. What a pity!!!
Is there free education in Lagos? Is there free basic health in Lagos?
Was LASU not on strike for so many months under Fashola's princely watch    
Are Lagos doctors not on strike yet again     
Fashola's infrastructural development  has come at what cost to Lagos taxpayers and their federal allocation     
Conversely, Fashola's infrastructures are to whose benefit MOSTLY- Lagosians or the bank accounts of Ashiwaju of Area Boys, ogbeni ojuyobo     
If your aspiration and expectation level vis-a-vis your representatives is so low, please excuse me. Mine is higher particularly for those who claim to be progressives and democrats.

Btw, I hope you have checked your details in the voters register and asked your friends & folks to do likewise.
It is time to replace legisLOOTERS with real legislators to make laws for better Nigeria and states.
Please identify, scrutinise, select and support your candidates for state and national assemblies.
God bless our work for Nigeria- Amen

youngmonie:
lol!!!, so its jonathan that doesnt look like a sickler or a drukn fisher man, i dy laugh ohh, THIS IS NOT ABOUT TINUBU, ITS ABOUT RIBADU AND KICKING PDP AWAY FROM GOVERNMENT, nobody holy pass

To be replaced with Autocrats Congress of Nigeria (ACN) and their original family affair of wives, children, in-laws, concubines and maybe even househelps ruling over us.
Tufiakwa!!! God forbid!!!
I would prefer to deal with a non-pretentious hooligan than an Ashiwaju of Area Boys gang pretending to be democrats and progressives. NEVER.
Our mumu don do!!!

Ogbeni ojuyobo is a master story spinner to the delight of his gullible crowd of Area Boys and beneficiary godsons.
This pseudo-progressive leader of the geriatric elders club otherwise known as Autocrats Congress of Nigeria (ACN) that wants to pass itself off as reformed Action Group should not have stopped at Obasanjo.  He should have been asked to include himself.
The journalists should have asked him about his vindictiveness against Fashola for trying to reduce the milk in ojuyobo's feeding bottle- the review of the parasitic contracts BAT set up to siphon Lagosians' taxes and federal allocation.
Did he not plan the impeachment of Fashola last year until we the people said NO WAY?
Was he not planning to install Muiz Banire as next governor until he saw that he will be shooting himself in the leg due to Fashola's performance and popularity??
Tinubu should spare us with his tombo bar gists. We know better.
Btw, have you verified your details in the voters' register on display till tomorrow 18th?
By now you should be identifying, scrutinising, selecting and supporting candidates in your constituency asking for your votes to become your representatives in the state and national assemblies.
Let's reduce the number of legisLOOTERs and replace them with legislators. Only we can do it.
Ojuyobo & co are only proposing their wives, children, in-laws and maybe even househelps. There must be better (or less bad) alternatives.

^^^
thanks for the historical background and enlightenment.

one down, many more to go in Africa and the Middle East in particular.
Gbagbo of Cote d'Ivoire next.
Vox Pop, Vox Dei - The voice of the people is the voice of God.
Let your voice be heard this election season in 9ja.
Identify, scrutinise, select and support your candidates to the state and national assemblies.
So we can have more legislators than legislooters.
Hope you know your constituency.

from: Gbawe on page 1
The situation we have in Nigeria is highly regretable and self-defeatist with how many Nigerians cast votes for numerous reasons that does not include a candidates history, record of achievement and manifesto for office.

I wonder how many people posting here know

* what their constituency is
* who the candidates for state and national assembly legislators are
* what is their "history, record of achievement and manifesto for office"

or are you willing to cast your vote for the president and governors only leaving any tom, manliness and harry to represent YOU at the nearest level as legislooters

Sunny Udochukwu is actually a spot holder for now. Ribadu has picked Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala as his running mate but Tinubu is against it because "she is too opinionated".However, They have until February 15 to substitute Ugochukwu.

Any need for further proof that GEJ was spot on about his assessment that the South West is being held by rascals with Ashiwaju of Area Boys as the Rascal-in-Chief (RiC) of the Autocrats Congress of Nigeria.
Fashola is in bad company and kudos for his smart moves to have achieved the little that he has despite the overbearing influence of super godfather Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

But indeed GEJ is right on the spot that reformed Action Group (I forgot that they have upgraded to Action Congress + Nigeria) is a bunch of rascals and pseudo-progressive dictators masquerading as democratic elders.
PDP has shown itself to be a MORE democratic establishment catering to diverse and divergent views through electoral primaries as evidence of its internal structural democratic values and obedience to court orders under GEJ's watch.
What do we have in Action Group (sorry again, Action Congress + Nigeria)? A group of geriatrics playing tingods and led by an Ashiwaju of Area Boys and Thug-in-Chief Ojuyobo who has imposed close and distant family members on the docile mass of people that makes up his party followers in the South West.

Btw, I hope all those posting on this thread know ALL candidates seeking office as State and National Assembly legilators in your constituency.

Jonathan didn’t name anybody rascal’

By Elizabeth Archibong
February 10, 2011 05:44AM

The presidency yesterday distanced President Goodluck Jonathan from reports that he had called governors of certain states ‘rascals’ when he said “the southwest is too important to be left in the hands of rascals”.

Presidential spokesman, Ima Niboro, said that “at no time did the president ascribe the ‘rascal’ he mentioned to anyone.

“Please note that the president didn’t call any names when he said the southwest is too important to be left in the hands of rascals,” he said. “So anyone who wants to appropriate the name to himself is welcome to do so.”

Mr. Jonathan had, on Tuesday, while flagging off his presidential campaign in the southwest geo-political zone in Ibadan, made comments about the PDP’s election chances in the southwest.

“We must take it over from them,” he said. “The ruling party must take over Lagos. We must also take over Osun and Ekiti states.”

NEXT

Obviously there are those who feel that they were named in GEJ's statement at a Nigerian political campaign rally hence the need to respond. As his spokesperson said above, they are welcome. Maybe they know that indeed they are rascals running their family circus -omo/iyawo wa ni e je ko se = na my pikin/wife [s]elect him, and masquerading as democrats while playing tin gods and pseudo-progressives.

But indeed GEJ is right on the spot that[b] Action Group[/b] (I forgot that they have upgraded to Action Congress + Nigeria) is a bunch of rascals masquerading as pseudo-progressives and dictators parading themselves as elders.
PDP has shown itself to be a MORE democratic establishment catering to diverse and divergent views through electoral primaries as evidence of its internal structural democratic values and obedience to court orders under GEJ's watch.
What do we have in Action Group (sorry again, Action Congress + Nigeria)? A group of geriatrics playing tingods and led by an Ashiwaju of Area Boys and Thug-in-Chief Ojuyobo who has imposed close and distant family members on the docile mass of people that makes up his party followers.
Btw, I hope all those posting on this thread know ALL candidates seeking office as State and National Assembly legilators.

yes.
Why not, if not.
Don't they enjoy police protection, roads, public schools, hospitals, street lights, traffic wardens etc
