I do not know why people choose to live in tiny rooms. It is depressing to me, and that is how standard room sizes are in London. Cant live there.

You said Tinubu is counting on Buhari popularity in the north and Apc

You people lost already... with all this noise nobody is buying into Tinubu

You people need to be in the north and observe reality

You and your people can make all noise on media .. but in reality nobody is buying Yoruba propaganda

Tell your contacts in the north to give you daily update

As it stands .. every other region is very quiet..

2014 Buhari by this time has taken over ...

2022

Yoruba people are making all noise only in Lagos and Nairaland

Thinkam:
But you made the same remarks?

flokii:
The Nnamdi Kanu your people are slaving and dying for can't lace MC Oluomo's shoes just so you know.. all his kids are graduates and I'm sure he himself has enrolled in a degree program to better his chances in the future.

Kellibae:
Yet yorubas are more concerned with igbos and ipob related matters... and fulani is killing and r*aping thier women sending then to exile

Ruggedniggaone:

We have heard this kind of beautiful promises before from politicians that all failed to deliver on their promises.

Former presidential candidate Kingsley Moghalu on Tuesday held meetings with former heads of state – Abdulsalami Abubakar and Ibrahim Babangida – in Minna, Niger State, Igbere TV reports.

Moghalu, who is also a former deputy governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria, said he held discussions with the former leaders on the state of the nation.

Moghalu said Abubakar holds a traditional title in Nnewi, Anambra State and that the former head of state was passionate about industrialising the town.

Moghalu was conferred with the chieftancy title of Ifek’ego Nnewi in December 2020.

Do give away jor.

There's no president that will survive a single tenure in Nigeria after Obasanjo without the opposition playing extreme tactics

The attack on the government is just too much and even Jonathan would be happy he gave up that position.

Boko Haram are sponsored
Fulani herdsmen are sponsored
Then ESN/Ugm were sponsored
As if that wasn't enough, oodua started theirs
Sowore never gave up madness

President Muhammad Buhari has stepped on too many toes and they are fighting back.

Little wonder this nation never moved forward.

I can only compare this persecution to Al-Mustapha's testimony on Abacha's infamous government when he decided to seize power.

Marvieduke:
The headline should have been known gun woman shoot omoyele sowore.

kingthreat:
They killed their own as they were enforcing their stay at home order. Clap for una self

NwaAmaikpe:


Just like a footballer who starts limping just after missing an opportunity to score a clean goal in order to confuse the fans on what went wrong, so is Umahi who has made a U-turn to save face because he knows no one will honour his threats.

This is not even because of MNK's comment on the issue but because he has realized that the same people whom he expects to monitor whom and whom didn't open their shops will be sitting at home as well; even his State's Secretariat will be desolate.

This brings me to my question.
Why are the SouthEastern governors ever hungry to appear politically correct?

Before the FG accepted June 12 as the new democracy day, several Southwestern states already had it as a State holiday.

Only recently; having hastily declared a public holiday for the Id El Fitr because Garba Shehu wrongly sighted the moon, the Muslims were shortchanged because their holiday should have been for Thursday and Friday and not Wednesday and Thursday.
Guess what, most Northern governors declared public holidays in their states to make up for this goof.

So what is the problem of governors ndi Igbo?

Will Umahi, Ikpeazu, Uzodinma, Obiano or Ugwuanyi say they do not have family or kith who were casualties of the Biafran Civil war, or do they imply that the near-extermination of their tribesmen in a war for a sense of belonging is not worthy of honour?

The Northerners are actually not the Southerner's problems. The Southerner's leaders are the Southerner's problems.

Buhari became attractive because Jonathan was incompetence personified.

More can still be killed with cutting edge intelligence.

CioAngels:
Congratulations. How I wished, you also used part of the money to build low cost houses that government has refused to build for the poor. The affordable low cost housing would have been so pleasing to the poor that, they will not forget you in prayers for life. Who knows, you might be hungry to go into politics tomorrow. The overbloated money bags elites and families, don't vote, but the downtrodden poor that will go through rain and sun to go and vote for you. The time to save for that would have been now. In time to come, there might not be that devilish rigging again. Remember, there was No rigging during pa Abiola time because of the Option A4 that was used. My opinion though.

Again? Is it that this government does not want us to be happy for one minute? Have we lost our human conscience?

naptu2:
In recent weeks there has been a campaign by some people who claim that President Olusegun Obasanjo was discriminatory in the appointment of heads of security and safety agencies during his tenure. They claim that he did not appoint people from certain geo-political zones, ethnic groups or religions to head security or safety agencies during his tenure.

See previous threads here

Why Attack Buhari, All IGP During Obasanjo Tenure Were All Yorubas

History Of Chief Of Army Staff Appointments From 1999 Till Date


Their claim that President Olusegun Obasanjo was discriminatory in the appointment of heads of security and safety agencies during his tenure is obviously false. I believe that those that are making these claims are trying to justify President Buhari's appointments. They usually select just one position and use that as an example (no president can appoint people from every state, zone, religion or ethnic group into just one position), but their claim that President Obasanjo was selective or discriminatory is false and this will be shown by the list below.

I compiled a list of the people that President Obasanjo appointed to head such agencies, but I later deleted the list because I believe that people should be appointed based on merit rather than their state of origin, ethnicity or religion. However, these people have continued to make these false claims, so it's necessary to set the record straight. Here is the list.

The retirees are paid as they are leaving. Go and read the article again or get in touch with Lagos pensioners. Lagos is not your usual Abia state where pensioners are owed for years

rodeo0070:
She said: “Governor Babajide Olusola Sanwo-Olu approved the payment of 33% increment for all State pensioners under the Defined Benefit Scheme and also paid the balance of the 25% rent allowance for officers on Grade Level 07 and above, who retired between May 2000 and August 2004. The Payment took effect in January 2020.”

Apus:
Great! But I believe they can do better as most have to wait for over 2 years before they have access to their entitlement and pension.

RuudVanNisteroy:
Speaking concerning the bill, Oluyinka Ogundimu (Agege 2), explained that the bill is to ensure the stoppage of pensions to governors and deputies when they leave office adding that this decision was in consideration of the country’s current economic challenges.

Ogundimu argued that the governors and their deputies and other such political office holders should be made to enjoy some benefits no matter how little.

He also argued that the bill should be amended in such a way that it would not throw former political officers to security challenges since if the original law is repealed, it would mean withdrawing all security agents and domestic staff earlier attached to them.

In his remarks, Gbolahan Yishawu (Eti-Osa 2), said the objective of the bill as raised by the executive is to ensure that the state begins to look inward in relation to the cost of governance.

He added that by virtue of his position as chairman of the committee on economic planning and budget, he has had the opportunity to check the finances of the state and would say Lagos is not very rich, but only has people who effectively manage its resources.

Yishawu also agreed that the security of the lives of such political office holders when they leave office should be considered, adding that the bill be committed to a committee.

Another lawmaker, Rotimi Abiru (Shomolu 2), said he supports an amendment to the law instead of repeal.
“For a person who has served as chief executive of a state, I do not think it is nice denying them of their benefits.

“I can appreciate that some of them move to other appointments. For these people, there can be a caveat. But for those who serve in that capacity and do not have any other thing to do after office, it may not be something elaborate, but something may be coming to them periodically,” he said.

The lawmaker representing Epe Constituency 1, Tobun Abiodun, said he does not subscribe to a total repeal of the law because it would give room to corruption in office.

He said provisions should be made available to governors, deputies and possibly speakers after they leave office.
