GanagiBitrus: I said "set of dorminant clubs" not "one dorminant winner"
Look, all over the world, there are top clubs in every league... England: Arsenal, City, Chelsea, Liverpool, Man U. Spain: Real Madrid, Barcelona, Atletico. Italy: Inter, Juventus, Milan S/Africa: Kaizer Chiefs, M/Sundowns, O/Pirates
But here, you'll see Enyimba winning the league this season, but battling relegation next season. No consistency. Different new clubs keep representing Nigeria in CAF club competitions, & they keep performing poorly.
The clubs can't build on their past experiences in CAF competitions.
Even sponsors won't want to invest in a club that wins today, & battles relegation tomorrow.
What magic formula do you have to make our league better, competitive and exciting like the oyinbo ones are still? Still, because our league was all these things up until the eighties.
By the way, do you have a HOME team? How much support do you give them, compared with the support that oyinbos give to their own home clubs
dominique: All outstanding matches including the lagos derby between Sporting Lagos and Ikorodu City which was postponed because of campaign rally will be played on Wednesday 30th September. The league has come a long way in fixtures scheduling. I'm very impressed with the steady growth of the league
Wednesday fixtures
Enyimba vs Shooting Stars Katsina United vs Rivers United Warri Wolves vs Enugu Rangers Sporting Lagos vs Ikorodu city.
I hope my Ibadan lads can Shoot down the People’s Elephant in Aba on Wednesday for our first win on the road.
mycar: So, Obi is the movement. The only reason big politicians hate Obi is because he is for the people and not for the politicians. He is not seen as a politicians' president. He is seen as someone that will scatter things for the politicians, it will not be business as usual for politicians. He did it in Anambra and after series of impeachment, he came out stronger and hence, normalcy returned to Anambra state
How can this man be for the people and not for his fellow rogue politicians like Tinubu is?
We don pass this level, abeg make you try something new and fresh.
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.
aduboy: Anambra distributes 177 vehicles to traditional rulers
Governor Peter Obi of Anambra State, on Monday in Awka, distributed one SUV each to the traditional rulers of the 177 communities in the state.
Obi handed over one of the vehicles’ key to the state Chairman of the Traditional Rulers’ Council, Igwe Alfred Achebe, Obi of Onitsha.
He said that the gesture was aimed at helping them run and build better communities, adding that the vehicles would also help the traditional rulers to function effectively.
“If you have better communities, you will have a better Anambra, Anambra today is changing for better and I want this sustained,” the governor said.
“In doing that, the state government and the local government will do what it can to support the building of a better Anambra.”
Achebe said that he was overjoyed because the governor cared about the well-being and welfare of the traditional rulers.
“It is completely unprecedented in Anambra and probably elsewhere in Nigeria,” he said.
“It is a mighty gesture from the governor and for the government of the state to make a distinct impact on the well-being of the traditional rulers in the state.”
According to him, it was one of the several measures the present administration in the state had taken to improve the wellbeing of the traditional rulers.
“We pray that God will give us a successor that will continue from where Obi has left and lift Anambra to the next level.”
bentenny: If they ask him to prove it,he will start writing epistles on his X account😆😆
What is there to prove to those who have chosen to perish from lack of knowledge and history?
Won’t it be like pouring water into a leaking basket? What wise person does that?
Kwankwaso is the new Utomi. The Kano guy is only interested in 2031, with renewed hope that the master strategist in Aso Rock will fail to get a 3rd term as Obasanjo failed in 2007!

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.
slivertongue: If that is true Kenneth shouldn't be complaining because it's favorable to adc. Omenka also shouldn't bother because it helps Apc but both are scared and helping Obi's mandate
Was the naive politician’s desperate search for freebies favourable to PDP’s candidate in 2023?
The candidate who rescued Obi from the political wilderness that his former Fidelity Bank protégé consigned him after his failed attempt to be the godfather of Anambra State.
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.
Parachoko: Corruption will run down the Country under this kind of setting I trust the Agulu Man, he steals without leaving a trail
What trail has the worst rogue left in Lagos after 27 years of 100 times budget growth to N4.2 trillion, if ordinary water is not available to houses?
What trail has the worst rogue in Aso Rock left in Abuja if he is borrowing more than PDP presidents who gave us cheap petrol and better roads with widespread prosperity

“This is how the Benin–Asaba Expressway looks yesterday, Thursday, August 20, 2026. Look at how cars and trailers are stuck because of the bad road.

manmade: , children of nowadays, have you ever seen a place where goat and yam tubers are locked up in the same place? The same Atiku that OBJ said he stole enough money that would be enough for feeding 400 million people for over 300 years while serving under him as a VP oo, now imagine he is now in charge as C commander in Chief, you even added elrufai and sowore that are presently being prosecuted for one crime or the other, then the worst one , Peter obi that has only mad men as his advisers. Tufia!
Obasanjo was just being temporarily hateful of his serial benefactor because Atiku stood with others to defend the constitution against his 3rd term agenda.
If Obasanjo was not being a ridiculous old man, why did he not deal with Atiku after 2003? If he says that Atiku had immunity, what about his associates? Did he deal with any of them
Moreover, why did the same Obasanjo subsequently endorse Atiku for the job of president in 2019? Do you know why
GOFRONT: Now Where is Papilo the Ambassador of Peak Milik?? HE is supposed to be in this gathering!! Just like Papilo Kanu, Can these ones trap a gongoni of Peak milk perfectly which accidentally fell off as the Old mama was trying to hand it over to Papilo as seen in the Advert of 1999??
Photo trick.
Why is Kanu failing to apply the minimum standards of players' welfare in Enyimba? How is he different from our wicked politicians who pay subsidy illegally under a different name while making petrol so expensive
How can Kanu be this cruel and evil despite his own exposure to global football in the developed world
I fail to understand.
Damning reports have emerged regarding Enyimba FC, led by Kanu Nwankwo, as a player reportedly injured during training has been asked to cover the cost of his surgery.
Enyimba FC, in the two years under Kanu Nwankwo, has appeared to become an unrecognisable version of the club
zenburster: So if the North is saying they don't want Tinubu, they are slyly trying to say Atiku is the man? A parasitic region less than 4 years out of power is already crying and wailing? I hate Tulumbu with my being, but instead of Atiku winning, let him complete his second term.
In what way is the north parasitic than the south?
The south would have done 17 years by 2027 compared to 11 years of the north. Why was Tinubu and other southerners wailing about their turn in 2023 instead of letting the north balance up the gap years in our underwhelming tribalistic zoning and rotation mindset
Penguin2: Let me tell you why every southeasterner is seeing Umahi as an ijiot and a shortsighted efulefu. With Obi, the Igbos have a realistic chance of presidency in about 7 months. With Tinubu the Igbos can only hope for presidency in 12 years time; with no guarantee. With Atiku the Igbos can only hope for presidency in 8 years time with no guarantee. Now, tell me the choice you would make as a sensible Igbo person.
What choice should you make as someone who is not involved in tribalistic sharing of the national cake of corruption through rotation and zoning in local, state and federal governments position, both in the legislative and executive branches
nairalanda1: Yawn, we know what you are saying, But the problem is, even if God answers your wish, it is not going to end any suffering. Most of you want chop economy, not productive economy. It does not matter which of our leaders die, so long as we are not ready to sacrifice two generations going from consumer to producer, from quasi socialism to capitalistic drivien industrial development, nothing will change. Plus the people you support are the same as the people they support. SO rest.
Rest please.
There are those who were more capitalistic with privatisation and deregulation policies that unleashed our productivity for 16 years of widespread prosperity, cheap petrol and less debt.
Why are you not supporting those people, if you are a realistic patriot
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.
Basic123: If they analyze the number of people saying "GOD LET IT BE TINUBU",I am very sure 95% will be from a particular region of the country! They are so mean and insensitive!
How can anyone be more mean and insensitive than the Guinean Jagaban of Borgu who begged his fellow northerner Buhari to come out of retirement and make Jonathan a one term president in 2015, after their party invited terrorists from his original country and others, to destroy Nigeria?

Afrobasic: He is basically saying that Nigeria is a nation run by criminals
Why do Nigerians allow our nation to be run by criminals, using tribalistic zoning and rotation to share the national cake of corruption at local, state and federal levels in the legislative and executive branches
datola: But Obi is not corrupt. .no matter how you look at it!
How is this one not corrupt? He only knows how to pretend like Tinubu who had the ogboju to say he ended corruption since May 2023 while speaking in Brazil.
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.
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.
churchkilo: but like seriously, why is President always working with Touts and Agberos
Because he is a tout and agbero per excellence, which is why he said he will fight and grab power, only for him to run cluelessly with it like a headless pig, making things worse than Buhari did.
PDPdestroyer: When we say you obidients are the most dishonest people ever to walk this earth, threads like this reinforces our position . This same OP went on a ranting spree recently on why building good roads shouldn’t be used as a metric for good governance but here he is today using this same logic to promote Obi as a good governor
Let me help him with the full post to highlight his hypocrisy, just like that of Obi.
Hopefully he will share verifiable records for Obi in his eight years as Anambra governor, on these performance measures, devoid of roads. For example, did Obi employ as many as 19,500 teachers to improve public school enrolment by what %? 19,500 teachers is the number employed by Makinde in five years.
givedemwotowoto: Building roads is not an achievement worthy of celebration by a President. Every administration before President Tinubu built roads. Roads are a basic responsibility of government, not an extraordinary accomplishment. Achievements are measured by outcomes (value delivery) not projects.
@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
Think of it this way: When you submit your CV to an employer, they look for outcomes you achieved, not tasks that you did. For example: "I answered phone calls, updated Microsoft excel spreadsheets, attended meetings" are tasks and responsibilities, and say almost nothing about your achievements on the job.
Employers want to know what changed because of the work you did. For example: "I reduced customer response time by 50% by implementing a 2-hour policy for new and existing customer requests". "I reduced employee onboarding by 50% by implementing a new HR software".
The same principle applies to government. Building a road is a task. The question is, what outcome did that road achieve? Did it reduce accidents through better engineering, signage, technology, road markings, and traffic enforcement?
The fact that building roads is now treated as an exceptional achievement shows how low the bar of governance has been set.
President Tinubu should be judged by:
1. Corruption: What measurable success has he achieved with fighting corruption which is one of the biggest problems plaguing Nigeria's institutions? How much more transparent are government institutions compared to previous admins? Which agencies have been reformed since he took office, and how did those reforms improve the quality of service delivery to the people?
2. Jobs: How many net new jobs were added to the job market under his administration? Has unemployed reduced since he took office?
3. Security: Have kidnappings, armed robberies, terrorism, banditry, violent crimes and religious motivated killings dropped since he took office?
4. Economy: Has he brought inflation under control? Has the value of Naira improved and stabilized compared to when he took over from the previous government?
5. Standard of Living: Are Nigerians better off today than when he took office? or did majority of Nigerians become poorer under his government?
6. Power Supply: Has Tinubu's government improved electricity generation, transmission and distribution? By how much did he improve electricity in homes? For example, if during previous governments, about 100 million homes enjoyed average 3 hours per day, by how much has he improved that?
7. Education: Has access to quality standard education improved? What specific learning outcomes have improved compared to previous admins?
8. Healthcare: Has access to quality and affordable healthcare improved? By How much? Are more Nigerians able to receive timely medical care?
givedemwotowoto: You people asked for it and got your answer Why are you still complaining? Why blame Peter Obi for Tinubu’s failures? By the way, where is the President hiding?
How is Obi not a failure just like Tinubu that is hiding in Macron's France
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.
Alliswell248: This is how you use your hands to put yourself in trouble. What did he steal from you? Hope you would learn early before you get burgled behind cell.?
If he did not steal then why did he not employ enough well paid teachers for the free education of all Ogun children like Onabanjo did in just four years?
If he did not steal, then why did he fail to employ enough workers to make pipe borne water available to all buildings?
Why are we so afflicted with Stockholm syndrome but blame leaders and oyinbos for our backwardness and deprivations?
sharone21: This has been the idea from the master strategist since 1999 which has been tagged, AUTOPILOTING, meaning there is a laid down masterplan that is being followed and anyone who aligns with this and is strategically chosen by him can run with this plan and operate it even while on vacation. You don't need to even be a degree holder or professor to rule successfully. It has been long that this has been implemented and same plan hopefully he has on a larger scale for Nigeria as a whole not only Lagos State. But he comes in first ( sowing stage) to understand the scenario and to undertake the hard tasks before his SOLOMONS start coming in. You start noticing the real development when his SOLOMONS come in. Everything is patience and for God to bless us irrespective of whoever is in charge of Nigeria.
If this is how French people feel about their own public servants, then would the master strategist of a-looter propaganda politics be hiding behind Macron instead of being in Nigeria fixing the stagflation mess triggered by his clueless reforms
If there is anything I can do to help you out, I stand ready to assist.

5 mind-boggling revelations from Obasanjo’s ‘My Watch’
5. Tinubu was one of the most corrupt, of the 36 governors
Obasanjo never got along too well with former Lagos state governor, Bola Tinubu, and unsurprisingly, Tinubu got a mention in the former’s book.
Obasanjo revealed that then EFCC boss, Nuhu Ribadu tried to investigate almost all the state governors during his tenure but that of the 28 confirmed to be manifestly corrupt or tainted one way or the other, Tinubu’s case was one of the worst.
Lagos — ABIA State governor, Dr. Orji Uzor Kalu and his Lagos State counterpart, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu would not escape justice but would be made to face the full wrath of the law following their recent indictment for alleged corruption by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).
Chairman of the commission Mallam Nuhu Ribadu who made the vow yesterday said the duo must account for their stewardship and may be thrown out of office.
Eriokanmi: Tinubu's name and the names those who called themselves activists but now keeping quiet will neber be forgotten for bad reasons in Nigeria
Activists like Tunde Bakare, who was Buhari's running mate in 2011, a year before he allowed Tinubu use him to play politics over fuel sector deregulation.
All Promises Cancelled, APC really scammed us walahi. Imagine how much we have been paying as FORCED subsidy in the last 11 years per litre, because of massive corruption in their oil sector.
anonimi: Petrol should never cost more than N70 per litre, says APC
January 19, 2015
The All Progressives Congress (APC) has described as mere tokenism the reduction of petrol price from N97 to N87 per litre, saying the petroleum product ordinarily should sell for N70.
On Sunday, the federal government announced the reduction of petrol price, citing the fall of global crude oil price.
But the APC through Lai Mohammed, its spokesman, on Monday accused the government of making a show out of deceit, saying “a 10.3 per cent slash in the price of petrol was a mere tokenism at a time the price of crude oil has crashed by about 60 per cent”.
It argued that the pump price of a litre of petrol should not be more than 70 Naira, alleging that at N87 per litre, the government was forcing Nigerians to subsidise the massive corruption in the oil sector by N17 for every litre of fuel.
PapaNnamdi: I feel the need to plunge Nigeria and Nigerians into more poverty is deliberate, there is no other sensible way to explain it
You are very correct about the intentions of the worst rogue politician who stole his way from Lagos to Abuja, sowing destruction along the way.
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.
