saintkel: Another win of Enyimba...those guys have to put up d best
It's quite sad that Kanu Nwankwo must have felt the pressure and worked on the People's Elephant to get back in form just in time to defeat my home team from Ibadan for their first win of the season. We put up a good fight though, coming back from 4-0 to score 2 goals.
Hopefully we will get a win as usual at home on Sunday in Adamasingba. Nasarawa United should not be too much of a strong opponent.
OnyeObowo1: If I don't give you guys 24hrs electric ps vote me out
Now that his two power ministers said he has given us power, will you vote him again, even though he has failed to crash petrol price and exchange rate as promised
AMI3: Which election did he win? Chai! This man u must be a comedian. In a class of 40 students one person took because his parents are crooks and they have money to bribe and they are ready to kpai' anybody that stands on their way are u telling me that such a child is brilliant or really took first in that class?
The records show that the child took first in the class, not so?
You can address the reasons why the 39 students and their parents allowed him to be first in their class.
AdamuKD: This man called Tululbu is a sadist seriously You like your family and friends to live in riches and opulence but want others to suffer. How can you justify such. I know that one day he will face his maker and his maker is going to deal with him plus hell fire 🔥🔥 side
How come the sadist is winning elections with his party?
Does this mean that we are mostly sadists
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.
HacheNoire: Somethings are impossible on Earth! No possible, logical or imaginary way can make him win in 2027. Confronting reality is not cowardice or weakness, it’s just accepting and conforming with the present. Peter and his minions are just day dreaming!
..................just daydreaming while Kwankwaso and Dickson nurse renewed hope for 2031, if the serial betrayer does not get a 3rd term for life president that Obasanjo tried and failed to get.
lexylaw40: The “president-elect” saw in Obi's presidential bid, a good chance to reduce the winning chances of the presidential candidate of the PDP, Atiku Abubakar.
The governorship candidate of the Labour Party (LP) in Oyo State, Tawfiq Akinwale, [/b]on Wednesday [b]stated that the “President-elect” Bola Tinubu asked popular economist, Prof Pat Utomi to step down for Peter Obi in the buildup to the 2023 general elections.
Akinwale made this revelation while he appeared as a guest on a radio programme on 101.7 YES FM, Ibadan, Oyo State, while alleging that Obi received campaign funds from Utomi, whom he described as Tinubu's "son."
The LP aspirant, who spoke in Yoruba language, said "In the buildup to the 2023 elections, Obi who had purchased the nomination form of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), suddenly announced his exit from the party.
"Initially, Pat Utomi had secured the LP's presidential ticket, but when Peter Obi said he resigned from the PDP and joined the LP. Bola Tinubu, a master political strategist, quickly told Utomi, that everyone knows to be his son to step down for Obi.
"The “president-elect” saw in Obi's presidential bid, a good chance to reduce the winning chances of the presidential candidate of the PDP, Atiku Abubakar.
"What Peter Obi didn't know is much more that what he knows, he started collecting campaign funds from Utomi, while Tinubu was giving the money to Utomi.
"This went on until Obi's presidential campaign got to a stage it went beyond target. Obi was used without him knowing," Akinwale said after announcing his departure from the party.
Obi defected to the LP after resigning his membership of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and also withdrawing from the presidential race under the party.
The former governor consequently joined the race for the party’s presidential ticket, while Professor Pat Utomi, in June 2022 stepped down for him to emerge as the presidential candidate of the Labour Party, LP, unopposed in Asaba, Delta State.

Peter Obi should have stayed in NDC and accepted the VP slot. He is now in a much smaller party and his Obidients are being taken for granted in NDC. Prof Utomi did his job well in 2023 and has now exceeded that already.
judewrites: Ironic statement. I don't think an unpopular president can regain power in a supposedly democratic reelection unless through rigging. But the truth is if there is a massive turnout against the incumbent president, even if there's rigging, it won't affect the total results too much.
If there was no massive turnout in 2023, what has changed for there to be a massive turnout next year
Racoon: The ranking placed Nigeria in 186th position, only after Haiti, among 187 countries of the world. Nigeria is the second country in the world with the lowest voter turnout, worse than war-ravaged Afghanistan and Libya, a new ranking by Picodi has shown.
The ranking placed Nigeria in 186th position, only after Haiti, among 187 countries of the world. Nigeria also ranked worst in Africa. Nigeria’s low voter turnout
PREMIUM TIMES had reported how Nigeria recorded a new low in voter turnout during the last general elections. With a national turnout of 29 per cent, a Premium Times analysis showed that the last election had the lowest participation rate in the country’s six decades of independence.
It further revealed that of the 93.4 million registered voters this year, 87.2 million people collected their Permanent Voters Card and the total number of actual voters on election day was only 24.9 million..The winner of the election, Bola Tinubu, had less than nine million votes, roughly 10 per cent of the total eligible voters.
Another analysis by this newspaper revealed that all the 18 candidates in Nigeria’s February elections received only 27.55 per cent of the total eligible votes.
Alliswell248: The Noisemakers ,aka the emergency lover of Nigeria h@te other people. That's why no one would support their own when needed. True Nigerians with functioning brains appreciate President Tinubu. Reforms is butter but it's necessary.
Why have 27 years of Bola's tax burden reforms in Lagos failed to yield a tiny fraction of what UPN progressive governor Jakande achieved in just four years, before Buhari ironically locked him up for corruption
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.
Penguin2: The world knows that Tinubu is unpopular but only banking on divisions to get back to power.
The master strategist of a-looter propaganda politics knows how to play on our selfish greed and tribalistic zoning and rotation to share the national cake of corruption.
Fortunately for him, he has a sloppy POLITICIAN in Atiku whose gentle lackadaisical attitude has denied NIGERIANS of the opportunity to benefit from his better GOVERNANCE record. Can you imagine having nuisance value Dino around him, and choosing Tinubu's boy as Lagos 2023 guber candidate, to cite a few examples of his unseriousness in POLITICS.
Jagaban of Borgu's divide and ruin tactics have held Lagosians hostage to his lootocracy master plan since 1999, and he is using the same winning formula at the national level since before 2015.

AgentNnamdi: Peter Mbah generates over ₦1bn daily from his busses. A business oriented governor
Why should a governor or even an LGA chairman as well as the president involve the government in business? Are they not better off employing enough well paid government workers to provide basic services and utilities that create the environment for private businesses to flourish and pay taxes to government?
Why should a governor prioritise running a bus company over the employment of teachers and other workers to make education free for all children and water available to all houses, for example?
What is the logic? What is the rationale?
Is this how local, state and federal governments involve in bus companies and abandon basic education and water supply, to make their countries attractive for our japa candidates
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.
thesolutions: Dust your credentials. You might be among the special Akara tax force. After investing in Akara businesses, the government will have to collect tax from them. If you make the list, he will be one person short of the unemployed people in the country. If he chooses to recruit 1m people in that force that will be real progress right. Get ready.
Is it by frying akara snacks/ food that South Korea,China etc became global powerhouses and economic giants? Is that how Tinubu plans to grow our economy to a trillion dollars
Anyone who wants better for our country should love him, for a return to the 16 prosperity years of PDP that was built on deregulation and privatisation policies.

anonimi: How Indorama sustains manufacturers, boosts Nigeria’s FX earnings
Indorama Eleme Petrochemicals Limited (IEPL) has emerged as a major value creator in the Nigerian economy. It is responsible for the survival, growth and sustenance of many manufacturing companies in Nigeria today. A large number of plastic and allied firms depend on the Eleme-based company for petrochemical resins (or polymer resins) which serve as their raw materials.
The petrochemical company is just one of the several subsidiaries of Indorama-Nigeria Group, which also comprises Indorama Eleme Fertilizer & Chemicals Limited (IEFCL), Indorama PET Nigeria Limited, and Indorama Port Operations.
Since Indorama Corporation of Indonesia became core investor in the old Eleme Petrochemicals Company Limited (EPCL) in 2006 through privatisation programme of the Federal Government, the group has become a game changer in the Nigerian economy.
The petrochemical company has solved the major challenge facing a number of manufacturers— poor access to raw materials. Rather than scramble for foreign exchange to import inputs, the company ensures that manufacturers have access to their critical raw materials, enabling them to save costs and improve margins.
The major resins used by plastic and allied companies are polyethylene and polypropylene. Indorama produces about 45 grades of these products for various industries. About 600 of such companies in Nigeria depend on IEPL for their survival. They are estimated to have over 90,000 workers.

Parachoko: On Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu Mandate I Stand Gidigba
Did you get the energy to stand on his mandate, because you ate Remi Tinubu's akara, which she is empowering those APC palliative policies made into jobless, extreme poverty paupers since her husband has no clue how to deliver 50 million jobs promised?
Omooba77: Before I forget, you promised Nigerians lower transport fares from October 1. Today is October 1. Did your promise miss the bus?
In your Independence Day speech, you found time to attack my plan to make life affordable. But you did not tell commuters which additional routes became cheaper today, what the fares were before, what they cost now, or how many people can use them. Lower fares on a few routes are welcome, but they do not solve the transport crisis facing the rest of the country. Bola, was this a Yahoo Yahoo promise or a hurried reply to my production subsidy proposal? You advertised cheaper transport from October 1. Today is October 1, and commuters are still asking where they can find the lower fares. Show them the routes and the prices. Nigerians cannot board an announcement. Bola, publish the routes, the fares and the number of people benefiting. Show Nigerians the cheaper journey you promised. My dear Bola, you said the people “cannot wait for tomorrow.” On that, I agree with you. Yet almost every answer in your address was about tomorrow. But Nigerians are hungry today. They pay transport fares today. They need jobs and safety today.
YouandiAllofus: 7. Tinubu rejected calls to reverse the reforms
He warned against returning to what he described as unsustainable subsidy arrangements, saying Nigeria must remember why the reforms were undertaken.
8. He said the economy is showing signs of improvement
Tinubu cited more than four per cent economic growth this year, contributions from the oil and non-oil sectors, lower inflation, rebuilt foreign reserves and greater stability in the foreign exchange market.
9. Oil theft has declined, and non-oil exports have grown
Tinubu said Nigeria generated more than $6 billion in non-oil export revenue in 2025, describing it as the country’s highest-ever figure.
The government plans to use gas to power industries, revive factories, expand digital connectivity and develop skills demanded by employers.
The same balablu bulaba mishmash cocktail for clueless town hall clowns.
If oil theft has declined and noi-oil exports have grown why has he failed to achieve his N300/$1 short term goal, ahead of the N200/$1 target in May 2027?
Who is fooling who? Who is allowing himself to be fooled by this master strategist of a-looter propaganda politics
Meanwhile, has he responded to Atiku's poser?

Interesting thing is that the more we celebrated Nigeria, the more we saw goodness in the land. Several years after, we are still celebrating and some are still scoffing.
Choose your side!
I choose the side of reality and not the side of pimper’s paradise.
How is worsening insecurity, inflation, unemployment, extreme poverty etc equal to more goodness in the land
The fact that 20 years after the first rhapsody was distributed, we are worse off should pain those who are not just using their brains 🧠 to decorate the place, rather than thinking and acting on Enlightened Self Interest (ESI) mode.
Is water supply better than in 2006, for example?
The federal government is not responsible for water supply in cities and towns. This is the responsibility of states.
500 gallons of water go for N20k. Multiply by 4 in a month, that's N80k. By extrapolation, that's N960k in a year on water alone. Why? Because the governor believes that clean and accessible water is the least of his worries. Yet they prance around like Enugu is Abuja even though the red muddy soil will have residents looking like they went tomb-raiding at night.
But then, considering where it was before Peter Mba, one can understand the accolades being that he moved the town from 16th Century to 17th Century but not anywhere near 20th Century. 21st Century is a stretch. EEDC? The worst of all.
The Permanent Secretary, Office of Drainage Services and Water Resources in Lagos State, Mahmood Adegbite, has said that people drilling borehole in the Lekki axis of the state is probably drinking ‘’shit water.”
While speaking at a stakeholders meeting in the state recently, Adegbite noted that contaminated boreholes in Lekki pose health risk and added that treatment of waste water would eradicate any form of disease that may arise from it.
He said, “On waste water treatment, I will say that everyone digging borehole within the Lekki axis is probably drinking what I will call ‘shit water.’
MrSly: Stop already. Most Nigerians don't feed from his money. The last I check he eats from ours. We patronise him, he doesn't patronise us, most of us. So right now we ate more important to him than he is to us.
Are we dashing him money? Or paying for products that he makes available to us?
thesolutions: He bought the right group for the job. Meanwhile, Obi and atiku are still dishing out promises to unemployed Nigerians who can't choke the government till they provide job or social security for them.
All Promises Cancelled. APC. Armed Personnels Contracted. APC. It's all APC in the end.
More recruitments coming up in the armed forces. More armed forces to be established. We now have forest guard. Peace corp might not make it. But be expectant water guard Blue economy guard complementing Navy. Agro force guard complementing the Forest guard and Army, Anti theft guard complementing the civil defense, Airspace guard complementing the Air force and Even homeland guard complementing the DSS.

I thought the turn by turn tribalistic approach to politics of rotation and zoning offices in local, state and federal governments was limited to sharing the national cake of corruption.
It would seem that I was wrong.
Why do we prefer to suffer under our own personal persons rather than have a better life under someone who is not from our own personal circle? Why then are we practically begging oyinbos to recolonise us, through japa frenzy since we can’t run our country by ourselves? Even ordinary pipe borne water supply, we can’t maintain what we had 66 years ago.

H.E. Peter Obi, you said you owed no one. You lied. You vowed to quit your 2027 campaign if even one person was shown. Water Corporation staff protested. Records are clear; survivors still testify. Those debts are yet to be fully cleared even today.
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.

"Initially, Pat Utomi had secured the LP's presidential ticket, but when Peter Obi said he resigned from the PDP and joined the LP. Bola Tinubu, a master political strategist, quickly told Utomi, that everyone knows to be his son to step down for Obi.
"The “president-elect” saw in Obi's presidential bid, a good chance to reduce the winning chances of the presidential candidate of the PDP, Atiku Abubakar.
"What Peter Obi didn't know is much more that what he knows, he started collecting campaign funds from Utomi, while Tinubu was giving the money to Utomi.
"This went on until Obi's presidential campaign got to a stage it went beyond target. Obi was used without him knowing," Akinwale said after announcing his departure from the party.
Obi defected to the LP after resigning his membership of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and also withdrawing from the presidential race under the party.
The former governor consequently joined the race for the party’s presidential ticket, while Professor Pat Utomi, in June 2022 stepped down for him to emerge as the presidential candidate of the Labour Party, LP, unopposed in Asaba, Delta State.
amaridigital: Abegii, no one is saint except if you believe the packaged fraud from Agulu. Obasanjo said more than that but ended up becoming the most brutal tyrant democratic leader we've ever had. He said Abiola wasn't the Messiah but he ended up removing elected State Governors and did same with Senate Presidents. His tenure was the worst when it comes to vote and ballot box snatching and do or die elections. Cut the goddam crap man.
Obasanjo is a saint compared with the Lagos landlord who has a name different from his mother, and no record of primary nor secondary school attendance. Do you agree
How can a serial betrayer of people he claims to represent, be a man of the people?
What balablu bulaba town hall logic is that?
anonimi: How we foiled Jonathan’s effort to make Mulika Adeola Speaker, Akande reveals
AS president in 2011, Goodluck Jonathan did all he could to ensure South West grabbed the country’s number four seat, including lobbying then opposition leaders from the zone, to no avail. The North West eventually grabbed the seat, supported by South West leaders in opposition to then ruling party, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
Former Governor of Osun State and now statesman, Chief Bisi Akande, made this revelation in his autobiography, “My Participations” which is currently dominating political and national dis- course.
Aminu Tambuwal, now Sokoto State governor, won the seat, against the preferred pick of his party, Mrs Mulikat Adeola Akande, from the South-West. Defunct Action Congress of Nigeria, then a fledging opposition, which had Akande and his soulmate, former Lagos State governor, Senator Bola Tinubu, as front- line leaders, openly asked its elected members of the House of Representatives, mostly from the South-West, to work against their region and back Tambuwal from North-West.
The opposition party’s support carried Tambuwal through the contest against Akande, then ruling party’s favourite for the speakership seat.
In his book, Chief Akande revealed that former president then as incumbent, personally reached out to Tinubu, who is now believed to be nursing presidential aspiration in 2023 and himself, but couldn’t convince them.
He wrote, “President Jonathan, immediately after the meeting (with political parties), called Bola Tinubu aside into a lobby to broach the matter of ACN support for a choice of who would become the Speaker of the House of Representatives.
“That same day, President Jonathan talked to me on phone about the same matter. He disclosed that PDP had zoned the position to the South-West but that only one Muraina and another Mulika won elections on PDP ticket from the zone into the House of Representatives.
Atiku leads and Obi follows, since he was rescued from political IDP wilderness camp in 2019, five years after his former Fidelity Bank protégé kicked the wannabe godfather out of their regional APGA party.
He has no idea what to say or do for our country until he listens to Atiku.
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.
olaadenigeria: We just like deceiving ourselves. How many laptops do you think would be enough for sharing. The person complaining if asked, she might not have voted before, or among those that dont even have pvc. Am sure in the gathering, many obedient too will want to go collect laptom from where they did not sow
