Babyboyforeal:
u are one of the problem in this country instead of voting for Atiku while not vote for Peter Obi?

Where did I say I'd vote any of them over Obi?

Nonpartisan1:
Lets see how Atiku would force the Southern electorates to vote for him next year..

I'd rather vote Atiku than Tinubu.

Jones4190:
So Atiku was Head of Economic Team under Obasanjo, he was the one who blocked Lagos State revenue for 8yrs, when Bola Ahmed Tinubu was the Governor without minding the suffering of Lagos State civil servants and the populace. This is a man who want to be Nigerian President. So if he becomes President, South West will kick Lagos/Ibadan Expressway bye bye, Lagos/Ibadan Railway Project bye bye.
He will starve Lagos of Funds again. Lagos people, should remember that once between, twice shy.
Me I don take my own as an elder stateman

Buhari cancelled the planned Lagos Metroline Project in 1985 and even had to pay millions of dollars in reparation to the contractor.
He also jailed/humiliated prominent South West leaders including Awolowo, Lateef Jakande, Bola Ige and Bisi Akande among others.

...but you supported/voted him twice.

Parachoko:
Yes o

Nah Tinubu get the ticket.

Tinubu APC

Wike PDP

Oh! I see.
Good luck brother.

On Bola Ahmed Tinubu Mandate I Stand Gidigba

My friend, you're still standing?

fyneguy:
I think she had the backing of Murtala Nyako.

His son is replacing the woman at the Senate.

They are all supporting Tinubu.

Cold comfort.
They are "ALL" indeed supporting Tinubu.
You can keep deluding yourself.


Isn't this what we've been drumming to your heads that even if presidential primaries were to be held, Buhari's preference will still triumph?
This isn't the "jeun soke" and "baba sope" brand of politics you're accustomed to in Lagos.

This is National Politics!

SensualMan:
Sanwo eko ooo!
Is that woman his wife or deputy?

Can Tinubu do that? Can Tinubu even raise his arthritic leg?
Someone that wants to rule Nigeria

Didi2d:
Lol... Una funny o
Person wey fail to submit form before deadline?

If dem play their mago mago finish with Jonathan, na court go disqualify am

What proof have you got regarding the boldened part?
...and the form submission deadline itself, before you talk about going to court, is an an INEC requirement or at the party's prerogative?

roundman:
If APC impose Jonathan on other candidates,the implosion will be massive...APC will loose.

Only Tinubu will lose.
I wonder why it's so difficult for you lot to see that no one besides those pursuing "life-long" ambitions give a hoot about the party's disintegration.
The APC was just designed to install Buhari/grab power for the north in 2015 and that objective has since been achieved.

What does the north stand to lose should the APC lose and say Atiku of PDP wins for instance?

I mentioned this yesterday that that Sowore's conjecture shouldn't have made the front page.

Buhari's candidate will still win regardless of the mode adopted.
Signaling his direction is all it entails for most of the governors to fall in line.

Not even Gandollar will dare swim against the tide.

thesolutions:
I was registering a business name for someone and got to the payment stage only for my account to be debited but Remita returned that the transaction was not successful. I tried again the second time and same thing happened. I have tried contacting REMITA through their available social media handle but the bot handling the complain is the worst I have ever seen. No response from them.

I tried contacting CAC but the response is taking a million years to arrive. Government workers are like that.

Now, I tried recharging my electricity meter and the transaction was successful but an error code that my token was not generated appeared. I was provided a button to try re-generating the token but it keeps failing each time.

I don't know if Tinubu companies are under attack or it is a normal network issues or, perhaps, someone is making money from me for his political ambition dubiously.

Tinubu doesn't own SystemSpecs.

...and how did Sowore arrive at that deduction?
So, any one can just conjure up their own stories based on some random pictures and boom it lands on Nairaland's frontpage?

drlateef:
Yes!!! APC owes him because he invested in APC. That’s the truth.

Nobody owes Tinubu nothing.

Democracy has already made him richer than he could ever possibly be in life.
As we speak, his Alpha-Beta company still dubiously steals about 14.6% of Lagos State's earning EVERY 30 DAYS! in the name of "Tax Consulting" This is besides the tons of other assets belonging to the state that he has cornered for himself and family.
He should rather thank his lucky stars the Nigeria has a virtually non-existent Justice System otherwise he'd be cooling off in jail by now.

We have repeatedly told you lot that the destinies of over 200million Nigerians SHALL NOT be traded for political compensation just to satisfy the greed-driven cravings of one frail and demented octogenarian looter. That man is everything a Nigerian president MUSN'T be.

Anyone who feels indebted to him can go erect monuments in his honour and pay him daily obeisance...that's none of Nigerians' business but the presidency especially at this critical time requires a young, healthy, cerebral and above all relatively-clean leader to take us out of the doldrums.

That's the carefully-crafted narrative Tinubu and his media men have been trying to force down our throats all the while.
Nobody owes him nothing.

He did play a pivotal role in the APC's formation and substantially funded it, but that's all there is to it. The likes of Amaechi and Atiku also massively funded the party in the run-up to the 2015 election.
Nigerians across religious and ethnic divides made Buhari president in 2015.
Despite the intimidation and widespread rigging in Lagos, Tinubu could only deliver a marginal 160,000 votes, which even if deducted would have been insignificant to influence the final outcome of the election.

The real (unsung) heroes are the people of the middle-belt - Kwara, Benue, Plateau, Kogi and Nassarawa who delivered their traditionally PDP states to Buhari/APC.

Enough of this nonsense!

Malory:
Shatap. He is in charge of economy

"In charge" indeed.

MrBrownJay1:
whatever you do, if you go, dont put your family through unnecessary stress... so make sure you have a valid plan in place. it would be unwise for most to leave a ₦600K paying job to go hustle abroad, but then again, we aint in your shoes.

...and how much is that N600k in USD?
In my opinion, only those earning upwards of 1.5M should ever have a second thought when an opportunity to relocate to a 1st world country arises.

@ charles009:
This should be an easy decision given that you earn less than $1K in a month.
Anyone earning in Naira gets poorer everyday with the unabating slump in the local currency.
In a few months' time, PMS will be selling for nothing less than N400/liter and the domino effect of it will reflect in the prices of every other item out there. So, technically you'll be earning less than your current salary as the naira keeps weakening relative to the USD.

sarrki:
This speaks a lot about the kind of people we are

It is really bad for our image as a country

A Tinubu promoter telling us what is "bad for our image as a country" is an aberration.
Is the octogenarian, parkinson disease and incontinence-suffering age-cheating thief you promote for presidency "good" for our image?

Go and sit down sarrki.

Kdon2:
Osinbajo ll never be president of Nigeria. Even God can not stop tinubu

Really?

You ridicule God for a toad-eyed robber who has looted away your destiny and isn't even aware of your existence?

We shall see.

That's the gospel truth.
Even Gandollar with all his BATification will dare not vote against Buhari's candidate.

Besides his obvious frailties, I just find it unfathomable that anyone with something useful in their cranium will be wishing this renowned looter on Nigeria.

Yemmysworld91:
Sentiment aside, only Buhari and the Northern hegemony can stop Tinubu. He's no match for other contestants.
But I really don't want him to be president. But he's way ahead of his competitors

That's because none of the other aspirants steals 14.6% of their states' monthly earnings.
None of the other aspirants can match the insane level of Tinubu's thievery!

dochenaj:
If the primaries are going to be determined by who has enough money to pay delegates then it will go to Tinubu and Atiku.

If it is by who has the best chance at winning for their party it should go to Osibanjo and Atiku.

If it is by who could be a better President from their party, then it should go to Osibanjo and Obi.

It is however only my opinion and you are free to have a disparate view.

Your opinion is incisive!

Ceenachi:
It's not about Russia tolerating Finland and Sweden. The truth is, there's nothing Russia can do about it
They've not been able to take care of Ukrain, it will only be foolhardy of them to attempt to take on Sweden and Finland. Any NATO member country will definitely have military hardwares stationed in their country, so this is just a cheap excuse to avoid a military conflict and still not appear weak. If attacking Ukraine was a business venture, Russia ventured into, it would be a bad investment. In other to stop Ukraine from joining NATO, they lost Finland and Sweden to NATO

Incisive!

ArewaNorth:
Shehu Na’Allah Kura, Kano State commissioner for finance and economic development, has resigned


The statement reads, “One of the commissioners nominated for appointment by Senator Ibrahim Shekarau into the administration of Governor Abdullahi Umar Ganduje in the lucrative ministry of finance and economic development, Shehu Na’Allah Kura has resigned and joined his boss.”

According to Malam Muhammad Garba, Kura was appointed as commissioner into the key ministry at the request of Shekarau after the 2019 election.

"...lucrative ministry,...key ministry".
In the National Assembly, they call it "juicy" portfolio/committee.

This is sadly what political appointments in Nigeria are all about...just an avenue for self-enrichment/political patronage...no genuine commitment to serve the people at all.
Only in Nigeria will you see newly-appointed public servants going to worship centers for "thanksgiving".
It's so disheartening.

From the pix, once can clearly see that Tinubu can even barely raise those old sickly hands.

seborrhic:
Dindirin.
The typical case of let's kill the child if I can't have him/her.
Any southerner,be him/her SE,SW or SS advocating or wishing for another Northerner to rule after the crass incompetence, nepotism and religious fundamentalism Buhari has ruled with,is a total f ool and deserving of a thunderstrike from God!

...and what becomes of those who voted him in 2015 and 2019 despite his antecedent?

Salvador1:
We are not surprised afterall.

Tinubu think he can use him get the ticket.

Meanwhile it's only corruption that will make two different person look identical.

funshint:
Though we know this is fake news anyway, but he can only win if a consensus is forced... none of the aspirants can match Asiwaju Tinubu.

That's because none of the aspirants besides Tinubu steals 14.6% of their states' monthly earnings.
None of the other aspirants can match such an insane level of thievery!

If a man could deploy 2 bullion van-loads of cash to fritter away just for vote-buying in an election where he wasn't even on the ballot, one can only imagine just how much in billions of naira of Lagosians' money the toad-eyed thief has already splashed buying phantom endorsements in pursuit of his greed-driven wild-goose-chase "life-long ambition".

Posterity will judge all of you wishing this renowned looter on hapless Nigerians.

Only Osinbajo and Amaechi can be said to have truly "gone round" the country.

Tinubu is yet to visit a single state in the SE/SS...which says a lot about his parochialism.

Corporate2020:
And there is not up to 25% Muslims in those state. Yet Muslims have been ruling Kaduna, Adamawa, Gombe and Nassarawa states. Go on with your chest beating.

It's all thanks to Christians' relative insensitivity to religion.
If they were to vote on the basis of religion, you and I know that Buhari wouldn't be in Aso Rock today. Abi is Benue State for example that Buhari won in 2015 a Muslim State?

I hope you do realize that if you reduce elections to a religious contest, no Muslim will ever rule Lagos State again.

Corporate2020:
19 Northern States, plus 6 Yoruba States will give us the 25 States, one state more than we need. Only Ondo and Ekiti will be tasking, but we will use rigging to patch it.

I suppose your "19 Northern States" include Plateau, Taraba, Kaduna, Benue, Kogi, Nassarawa, Adamawa and Gombe States.
You're deluded, Ogbeni.
Are you even aware there are more Christians than Muslims in states like Nassarawa, despite having been ruled since creation by Muslims?
