gidgiddy: Enugu residents abandoned Tinubu and his visit, nobody even came out on the streets to cheer his visit
I'm just glad Tinubu came and left. He is neither liked nor welcome in Enugu
Maybe this is because he has not yet announced the release of the Biafurọ leader from his jail?
Do you think that T-Pain is planning to release him just before his reelection campaign, to fool south yeasterners like he did with naive Pandora Bitter Obi, for the chance to continue APC shege to extra level
jameshankss: Anambra State Governor, Professor Chukwuma Soludo, has said he is sure the candidate of Labour Party (LP), Mr Peter Obi, would lose the 2023 presidential election. Soludo said he would not submit to the bullying of Obi’s supporters, who recently descended on him for addressing issues in the state.
The governor made the comments in a lengthy write-up personally authored, with the title, “History Beckons, and I Will Not Be Silent (Part 1).”
Soludo said Obi was inadvertently making the pathway to victory much easier for the presidential candidate of All Progressives Congress (APC), Bola Tinubu, and at the same time, toying with the destiny of millions of Ndigbo.
But the chief spokesperson for the Labour Party Presidential Campaign, Yunusa Tanko, accused Soludo of being sponsored by some unknown persons to weaken the base of the party in the South-east.
The former CBN governor had been under intense attack for close to a week for dismissing Obi’s investment in the state as amounting to nothing, during a television interview.
Soludo said in the write-up, “My attention has been drawn to some of the tirades on social media following my frank response during an interview on Channels TV regarding the ‘investments’ Mr. Peter Obi claimed to have made with Anambra State revenues.
“Sadly, several of the comments left the issue of the interview to probe or suggest motives, inferred from my response on ‘investment’ that I am opposed to Peter Obi’s ambition and, therefore, committed a ‘crime’ for which the punishment is internecine abuse and harassment, even to my family.
“Everyone knows that I don’t follow the winds or one to succumb to bullies, or shy away from a good fight especially, when weighty matters of principles and future of the people are involved.”
Soludo said he had urged Obi to return to his former party, the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA), to actualise his presidential bid. He added that he had always told the LP candidate to his face that he was not capable of winning the 2023 presidential election, especially, under LP, which had neither a councillor nor a local government chairman.
Soludo said Obi was not just his friend, but also his brother, but despite that, they have their political differences.
He stated, “For full disclosure, let me state that Peter Obi and I are not just friends, we call ourselves ‘brothers’. But we have political differences: he left APGA for PDP after his tenure as governor, while I have remained in APGA since 2013.
“During the last two governorship elections in Anambra in 2017 and 2021, he led the PDP campaigns but APGA won landslide in both elections. By the way, in 2016, he visited and proposed that I defect to PDP and contest the 2017 election against the incumbent Willie Obiano, but I declined.
“After my victory in November 2021, he called to congratulate me, as I did to him in 2010. That is the Anambra way: we fight fiercely during campaigns but share drinks at the next social events. After all, it was the Great Zik of Africa, who taught us that in politics, there are no permanent friends or permanent enemies but only permanent interests.”
Arguing that Obi’s presidential bid would only work in favour of Tinubu, Soludo said, “Indeed, if I were Asiwaju Tinubu, I would even give Peter Obi money as someone heading one of the departments of his campaign, because Obi is making Tinubu’s pathway to victory much easier by indirectly pulling down PDP.”
Obi, according to Soludo, would only deplete the votes of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and pave the path for an APC victory.
He stated, “The current fleeting frenzy, if not checked, will cost Ndigbo dearly for years. The South-east has the lowest number of votes of any region, but it is also the only region where the presidential race might be a four-way race (it is a two-way race in the other five regions) thereby, ensuring that our votes won’t count in the making of the next president of Nigeria.
FreeStuffsNG: Wrong pricing Basic economics asserts that if prices rise, especially for price elastic goods and services, demands fall ceteris paribus. They will learn to get their price right next time.
Is this the meaning of the change from the Poverty Development Party, PDP promised by T-Pain nine years ago
Emergingnation: Flashback: How Bola Tinubu spoke highly of Buhari in 2015, named PDP ‘Poverty Development Party
National leader of the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC, Bola Tinubu had during the presidential campaign in 2015, referred to President Muhammadu Buhari as the only solution for the security and economic challenges facing Nigeria.
During a mega presidential rally, the former governor of Lagos State recalled how some powerful nations in the world returned to army generals when they were challenged, saying “Major General Buhari would revive Nigeria’s economy”.
He named the current opposition People’s Democratic Party, PDP as the “Poverty Development Party saying they had nothing to offer.
His words at the time were; “Every nation has a period of their own challenges, when America was challenged, they turned to one great man, their ex-military general, General Eisenhower. When the French were challenged, they turned to their general, Charles de Gaulle.
“When Britain was challenged, they turned to their general. Today, Nigeria is economically and physically challenged so we turn to General Muhammadu Buhari. He is the right man for the job. If you talk about military experience, he has it abundantly, he has courage, simplicity, he has it abundantly.
“If you talk about great determination, a combination of vision and ability to perform, honesty and integrity, he has it abundantly.
“I laugh when the incapable government, ‘Poverty Development Party’ PDP were talking. They have nothing again to say, they now want to question the qualifications of General Buhari and look for his certificate”.
Following the manifestos in 2015 which projected the APC presidential candidate as a ‘saviour’, Buhari defeated the then incumbent president, Goodluck Ebele Jonathan with Nigerians expecting a total change in security and economy.
Looking4Trouble: Greedy farmers charging excess to extort the masses. Go and eat your chickens nah

Watch the video, share your thoughts in the comments.
budaatum: So, you all admit Jonathan lacked the balls to remove fuel subsidy, and caved in to Tinubu's protests? I'm glad we are on the same page.
If you had all voted for my Peter Obi, things might have been better, or worse to be honest, but you'd at least not be contending with Mr Bullion Van, which in my own opinion was enough not to elect him. But here we are with President Agbado, and I personally appreciate the fuel and currency subsidy removals, and the hardship too in fact, as its likely to make you consider your pvc and voting to be more precious and important than most otherwise thought it was.
Please, if you like him as little as I do, vote for Peter Obi or anyone (but perhaps not Atiku please) at the next election.
And before anyone attempts to try to tell me Tinubu was not elected, please read this first!
Cluelessly naive Pandora Bitter Obi laboured for T-Pain’s ebilokan election, to continue APC’s shege that was scamdemically packaged as change nine years ago.
Know that and know peace.

Flamesss: Why not channel all this finance and energy In building electric trains that would tour these states or even the country
Please how can you build electric trains when you have the highest number of children out of school with little industrial research capacity and nearly nonexistent manufacturing facilities
SpaceX: 10 billion for four people!!! So this is what it means to manage??
Manage is the portion of the senseless ebiNpawa tribesmen who are fighting for palliative food and killing themselves in the ensuing stampedes.
Manage is not for T-Pain as he cruises in yachts, jets, Escalades etc. Meanwhile he has given ologogoro Wike free rein to secure the FCT for 2027.
ijustdey: President Bola Tinubu has pulled the Federal Capital Territory Administration, FCTA, out of the Treasury Single Account, TSA, effectively paving way for the Nyesom Wike-led FCTA to utilize the territory’s Internally Generated Revenue IGR for the development of the nation’s capital.
Clonus: Just the sad reality. We will only wail and rant and they know it. Nothing Dey happen!!!!
Very true, seeing how Saint Obi justifies the actions of his fellow LP labourers in this destructive mismanagement of Nigeria.
[quote author=NLCreator post=126854133]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.

anonimi: 2023: PDP and politics of healing Wike’s self-inflicted injury
Then, the race began in earnest for three years now, reaching a frenzy with the works of the two PDP committees on zoning. The first was the Gov Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi committee on the zoning of the PDP party offices. The Ugwuanyi committee quickly told the world the committee’s assignment did not cover zoning the office of the president. Though this was true, the question is: why didn’t the Ugwuanyi committee zone the PDP chairmanship to the North without aligning it to the divide that would produce the PDP presidential flag-bearer? The second committee headed by Gov Samuel Ortom of Benue state was specifically on the zoning of the presidential ticket and, with the votes of the representatives of all the 17 Southern states without any exception, the Committee unanimously recommended throwing open the PDP presidential ticket, which the PDP NEC simply upheld.
One thing irrefutably stands out – Wike shot himself in the leg. Here was a man who had an overarching influence on both committees but could not insist that the ticket be zoned South. Many had wondered why? The reason is also relatively in plain sight: the Southeast factor. As the clamour for zoning of the presidential ticket of the PDP to South reached its crescendo, many had pointed out the fact that though the PDP Constitution had prescribed zoning of the office of the president to be between North and South since the South-west and South-south had taken their turns in producing the president and the vice in this current dispensation in the persons of Olusegun Obasanjo and Goodluck Jonathan, zoning this time around, should not just be to the South but the Southeast.
Atiku Abubakar went a step further by offering to step down from the race if it would be agreed that the touted zoning to the South would mean micro-zoning to the Southeast. Wike and the rest could not take the Atiku challenge maybe because Atiku would likely back Peter Obi, who was his vice-presidential running mate in 2019 and an ally. The prospects of Peter Obi picking the ticket if PDP zoned South was so real compelling Wike to go for an open contest, believing he could pick it up ahead of Atiku, Tambuwal and Bala Mohammed, given his large war chest.
PeterObi4Presid: We need dollar to be 2500 asap That's kuku the dreams and aspirations of APC They double down from the subsidy gone disaster inauguration speech Imagine pumping naira from 750 to 1700......within one year....it's safe and logical to expect 2500 anytime soon and 3000 before the calamity of a president is eventually booted out come 2027
If Pandora Bitter Obi runs again and secures almost 100% Igbo votes, then we are doomed for another four years of ebilokan hunger, poverty, unemployment, corruption, suffering, starvation and stampede deaths.

Lithiumite: What's hypocritical in supporting obj 99 and 03,yar adua 07,GEJ 11, Buhari 15 and 19 and now tinubu 23.....it's not my fault your people don't have the candidate to win us over.
It’s hypocrisy to say Igbos play victim card when Yorubas also play victim card.
QED!
Lithiumite: That's the Igbos playing the victim mentality as always.....what is due the Igbos that they haven't been getting......state and LGA allocations,ministerial positions,civil service employment pls mention what it is the Igbos isn't getting compared to the other regions.
More or less sadistic than our tribal leaders looters who deprive us of jobs and make us fight for palliative food until we kill ourselves in stampedes
edet19892015: Unless you understand your role in society, you can never make any meaningful contribution.
According to the Greeks, they are three types of people on Earth, 1. The idiots, 2. The tribesmen, and 3. The citizens.
Studies show only 10% of Africans are citizens. The remaining 90% are either tribesmen or idiots.
1. When the Greeks used the word "Idiot", they did not use it as a curse word. Idiots are people who just don’t care. If they sit for exams, they will cheat. If they are in government they will steal.
An idiot does not care at all, if he eats bananas he throws the peels anywhere instead of putting them in a trash bin.
IDIOTS won't attend monthly neighborhood meetings. They won't pay security dues. They won't contribute to community development. Even when they see or know about something that will harm others in the community they won't report it. When they see/know/have something that will benefit their community they won't share.
In fact, Idiots don't care to register for or vote in an election, yet they complain the most. If they register to vote, IDIOTS will sell their votes for peanuts.
According to the Greeks, some societies have more idiots than tribesmen and citizens.
2. The next set of people are "Tribesmen", these are people that look at everything from the point of view of their tribe.
These are people that believe in you only if you are part of their tribe. It can be terrible to have a tribesman as a leader, he will alienate the rest.
When the Greeks talk about tribes, it’s not just about ethnicity, they also consider religion, gang membership, group membership, party membership and even cult membership as a tribe.
A great percentage of Africans are tribesmen, because they view everything from the point of view of their tribes. They trust only their tribesmen
3. The last group are "Citizens". These are people who like to do things the right way. They will respect traffic light rules even if no one is watching them.
They drive within speed limits. They respect the laws, and won’t cheat in exams. In government, they won’t steal. They are compassionate and give to others to promote their well-being.
Citizens often promote projects that benefit everyone. The Greeks called this group "The Citizens".
Some countries have more citizens than tribesmen and idiots, others have so many idiots.
A tribesman can become a citizen through orientation. And an idiot can become a citizen by training and constant enforcement of the law.
But things fall apart if you elect an idiot or tribesman to lead you if he has not been reformed.
Where do you belong? Are you an idiot, a tribesman or a citizen? Reflect on your life. Reflect about your immediate community, city, state and nation.
Lithiumite: I would say tinubu was more shrewd and focused on his goals of being president after all the entire SE didn't vote him but he got it anyways.....you can also attempt it it you got what it takes.....it took tinubu over 30 years to get to where he is today....give him his accolades.
During my days in school, I had thought life will be far better after school but here I am earning 85k/month and that is money that cannot even meet my immediate needs and not to talk of wants and unto other responsibilities.
By age, I'm supposed to have been married but still living in one room which is not advisable to even think of marriage in this condition.
To arrange myself for marriage, I need at least a one bedroom, furnished and comfortable. The yearly rent for that is about 400-450k
Then I am also worried about renewing the rent every year, year and year.
How about catering for the family? Aside rent, feeding, school fees (once married, you begin to reproduce), medical, clothing and so so and so forth.
To live a good life, you need a car for mobility sake as a family.
I can't continue to pay rent. Meaning I need to build a house.
Obviously, the 85k salary is not enough. I need to start a business.
How much of your worries would reduce if you and every other Nigerian EXPECTS his LGA councillors and chairmen as well as state lawmakers and governors to employ teachers and other staff to make primary and secondary schools free for every child?
What if the local and state governments license private companies to run comfortable mass transit systems?
Finally, why don’t you EXPECT the local and state government officials to make low cost housing available for everyone
arowz56: You are ungrateful waste of sperm... Let God take away your job and house and all and go back squarely to square one so that you will be able to focus and see your problem with open eyes... Only then, you might appreciate what you had... Shebi you focus on what you don't have instead of the blessings at hand... As if 33yrs is the end of it all... You that have all that believes you can't have in tickle of an eye... Kai... Shame on u... Ungrateful Being... That's how people like you delay their blessings because you focus more on what you don't have instead of the blessings you have... Werey go see your mate drawing their last breathe in the hospital
If you are not the regressive weyrey here, then why would you want him to inspire himself to improve, by comparing him to the worst possible situation
Many Nigerians are in the same hopeless shoes, especially since APC’s palliative-sharing policies wrecked the economy into extreme poverty, unemployment, inflation, insecurity etc.

So why all the drama about Lawan as the CONSENSUS flag bearer before the primaries
phemmyjohnson: CONTRARY to the position of most Northern Governors on power shift to the South National Chairman of thee All Progressives Congress, Senator Abdullah I Adamu has announced Senate president Ahmad Lawan as APC consensus presidential candidate.
Adamu, Vanguard gathered announced this at the meeting of theNational Working Committee, NWC, on Monday, in Abuja.
However, some members of the NWC, sources said, kicked against the move and insisted that other Presidential aspirants which include Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, Vice President Yemi Osinbajo, Dr. Kayode Fayemi, Engr. David Umahi must be allowed to contest the primary election at tomorrow’s convention scheduled at the Eagle Square, Abuja.
Adamu’s adoption of Lawan as consensus candidate is against the position of 11 APC nothern governors who endorsed that power must shift to the South after President Muhammadu Buhari’s tenure. Adamu told the NWC that he arrived at the choice of Lawan after consultation with President Buhari.
Buhari, Northern govs in closed-door meeting Reacting to the move, some APC northern governors raced to Aso Villa and currently meeting with -President Muhammadu Buhari. The meeting is coming a day before the commencement of the party’s convention to elect its presidential candidate for the 2023 general elections.
Although President Buhari has maintained his position on the consensus arrangement, there has not been any agreement among the 23 presidential aspirants. The meeting with the APC governors from the North is the fourth parley in his effort to ensure that the party presents a consensus candidate so as to reduce acrimony that may arise at the end of the convention.

Osinbajo: We’ve saved N1.4trn by not paying fuel subsidy
AUGUST 25, 2016
Vice President Yemi Osinbanjo says the federal government has saved N1.4 trillion for not paying oil subsidy.
Speaking in Kano on Thursday during the third day of the 15th Joint Planning Board and National Council on development meeting, Osinbajo urged Nigerians not to lose faith in Buhari’s administration, saying the president would fix the economy.
“*With the deregulation of the downstream petroleum sector*, there has been a significant increase in the availability of petrol throughout the country for the savings of N1.4 trillion on subsidy payments alone,” Osinbajo said.

citizenisb: Former President Olusegun Obasanjo says President Muhammadu Buhari may not do well in economy and foreign affairs, except in military matters.
“Buhari is not a very hot person on the economy and foreign affairs,” Obasanjo said.
The former President stated this on Monday at the third International Conference on African Development Issues — themed, “Driving inclusive and sustainable development in Africa: Models, methods and policies” — organised by Covenant University, Ota, Ogun State.
While reacting to a question posed to him by a member of the audience: “Is there any hope for Nigeria under the administration of President Muhammadu Buhari?”, Obasanjo replied, “Is there any hope for Nigeria under this administration? I came back from Geneva, Switzerland a few days ago to attend a conference titled, ‘Are elections giving democracy a bad name?’ We had an election, we elected a leader and the good thing about democracy is that the power you have to elect a leader is also the power you have to remove him. I am saying this because I said earlier that if you don’t see any leader that has done well in the 56 years of Nigeria’s independence, then let us forget about Nigeria.
“I will tell you what I know and I will tell you what I don’t know. I know Gen. Muhammadu Buhari. He served under me in the military. His characteristics that I know, his behaviour that I know, he has not deviated from them. He was never a perfect man, he is not a perfect man and no leader can ever be a perfect man because they are human beings. But if you read my book, what I said about him is correct. He is not a hot person when it comes to economy. He is not a very hot person when it comes to foreign affairs. But he will do well in matters of military and he will do well in fighting Boko Haram.”
