kettykin: There are. 2 solutions to Lagos, either split it and remove the former federal capital from Lagos and make it no man's land like Abuja or stop using federal government funds to fund needless projects and allow Lagos state government to carry those projects.
If Atiku or any northerner assumes office and spend N4. Trillion in Abuja projects, that's when you will see the height of hypocrisy from some people from a certain part of Nigeria
Most of Lagos was under Western Region and funded by them, when Lagos state was carved out, practically all of Lagos state was funded by the state's own allocation.
Federal government funds were only used to fund a small part of Lagos that was deemed Federal, like roads etc. Same Federal roads exists in all states, Benin Sapele road for example falls in that category.
Thankfully, una pipo don carry una wàhálà go Abuja, make una allow Lagosians rest small.
Mrexcell: This is a lesson to igbos in lagos who are overzealous about contributing to the development of lagos state they should all know now that no matter their efforts they put in it can all be erased in few minutes by any hate filled bigot who rise to power. It's better for them to direct their good will, philanthropy and developmental efforts back home where they come from where their efforts will be greatly appreciated forever.
It's a bus stop, there was no effort or anything put into developing anything.
helinues: The above quote is the first verse of Jason Derulo's savage love song.
Take note of @ emboldened. The same north SE people have been blaming for being behind the underdevelopment in their region is the same North they always romance with politically not because they love the North politically but just to pepper their perceived enemy's region meaning they are ready to be used by North any day any time.
I love the song though most especially the dancing
Wicked boy, you want to tie them down like a Christmas goat in the thread, immobilise them in one fell swoop to stop them progressing in their lives for a bit. Ah ah?
They too, not being very smart will spend time vituperating needlessly on here.
izicooo: because you understand my view point but you don't know how some fellows here have been lashing me because of my comments, it almost got into me lately but i'm fine now!
You know yourself it's the immaturity in them that they are exposing to the world aals in real life, if they see you, they wouldn't dare open thier mouth to say pim.
izicooo: i'm really sorry for sounding indifferent here, please pardon my mannerz; what i'm trying to understand is, how two adults having sexual relationship, how is that suppose to be an issue? if this was a case of rape or defilement it would have been understandable. Them dey always tell men, mount your guard (financially, bedroom & in several other aspect) or else person go wipe your wife.
Nothing to be sorry about, it's a somewhat fair question.
In the Armed forces where you all have to be together fighting against an enemy, such a betrayal, when known, could be an issue when they are at in battle.
You can't go to war beefing someone on your side, that disagreement could manifest when you are fighting an enemy and cause rancour in the ranks that the Navy or whoever can't afford, especially when away on assignment.
There is also the part where marraige vows are broken as well.
Jatuski: The Yoruba Youth Council (YYC), an umbrella organisation of Yoruba youths nationwide, has cautioned against anything likely to disrupt the incoming governorship election in Osun State, or discredit the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC.
In a statement at the weekend by its spokesman, Saheed Adeola, quoting its YYC National President, Comrade Eric, YYC particularly faulted what it described as unnecessary alarm raised by the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and the African Democratic Congress (ADC), over the number of registered voters credited to Osun State in the latest nationwide pre-registration exercise conducted by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).
According to INEC’s figures, Osun State recorded 393,269 pre-registrations, the highest in the country.
But some of the stakeholders including the PDP and ADC criticised the figures as unrealistic alleging fraud.
Responding, INEC had in a statement on Thursday by its chairman's spokesman, Rotimi Oyekanmi, debunked the allegations, explaining that the current figures are consistent with data from INEC’s 2021 online registration exercise, contrary to allegations.
Describing the alarm raised by the PDP and ADC as needless, the YYC said, “The figures for Osun State are not unusual.
“In any case, in the 2022 Governorship election in Osun State, PDP defeated the APC. It is therefore, surprising that the PDP will now query the statistics.
“In fact, contrary to their claims, the number of registrants recorded in Osun State in the latest exercise aligns with the pattern recorded in 2021.
“For instance, Osun recorded 232,880 registrants in a similar exercise conducted by the same INEC in 2021. There is no significant difference in the data recorded for Osun State in 2021 and the figures of 393,289 2025 for the 2025 online pre-registration.
“Even at that, the Commission will still clean up the data, and publish the register for claims and objections by citizens before the exercise is finalised.”
YYC said, “Interestingly, they are querying the figures for Osun and the South West in the latest exercise but not those of the FCT.
“Rather than busy themselves in raisin an unnecessary alarm that amounts to storm in a tea cup, the PDP and ADC should participate in mobilising our people to register in the Continuous Voter Registration, instead of querying figures,vand heating up the polity unnecessarily”
Who are these ones again nitori Ọlọ́run? Everybody is just borrowing Muric's "one man group" formula.
00FFT00: I am Nigerian, an employer of labour in Nigeria and a tax payer. Stakeholding doesn't come better than that.
Besides, I don't read you questioning the foreign entities Tinubu is selling our national interests to, including but not limited to his friend and business partner, Gilbert Chagouri(he'll claim he's Nigerian, but questions my eligibility.
Good for you doing your bit.
However, you will read what I deign interested to post, not what you feel I should, nor vex you hear.
OredoPikin: This was the build up to the 2015 general election See how a sitting President felt then about the hate and bitter politics introduced by Tinubu and his people. But today, this same people are accusing obidients of hate. They can't even take half of what they dished out. Kindly watch the video
94 topics started, not one single one about Ẹdo state or Benin. Yes, I don't support people being forced to post anywhere to justify anything to anyone so bear with me as I make my point please. Why chose Oredo though, why not OviaPikin or the other one spanning the Ikpoba Hill area that I forget temporarily?
All 94 topics fall into four distinct categories as below:
1) Hating on APC 2) Hating on Ndi Yoruba 3) Batting for Obidients 4) Batting for Ndigbo.
ufotunang: How can it be possible for El rufai to bring thugs and hoodlums to a meeting organized by El rufai himself ..to disrupt the meeting and cause violence ?
This is commonplace actually, the organiser will bring their own thugs and hoodlums, as soon as they sight other people's thugs and hoodlums or the meeting is not going their way, their thugs and hoodlums dabaru everything, chikena.
Not saying it happened here, just explaining why it could have happened. Nor bi today.
Kukutente23: Isn't this a good one for the circus. Even the snail now considers itself among the horned animals Obidients bullied you? Are Obidients even aware of your existence? It seems the fallback for anyone who wants to have a go at Obi and Obidients now is to claim they were bullied You're free to tok your own as I've always told you. Not that your opinion matters but you need to be called out when you claim to be neutral but your obsession is with one side of the aisle. I'm happy you've found an alibi after rambling through the sack for one all this while. But if you know that it's a free world, you need not have attempted to paint yourself to be what you're not in a bid to grant more legitimacy to your shots. How do you like your corn? Boiled or roasted Eat your corn in peace
I don't know you or anyone on here from Adam, why the heck should I seek any legitimacy or whatever term you used?
I assume people are smart is why I engage them, even Obidients, once I realise they are not, I allow them wallow in their you-know-what.
The floor is now yours to end this cycle of irrelevancy between us.
00FFT00: Oga, you are as neutral as Tinubu is in Nigeria politics. I am a Peter Obi supporter, and proudly so.
As for una DSS eh, my broda, there's no basis for them to even remotely remember me. And in the unlikely event that becomes the case, I am unreachable.
Unless of course, their director wants to risk visa ban.
If you are abroad, why are you making baseless claims about mandate stealing and the like, claims you daren't make about things happening in your location jurisdiction for fear of litigation?
Kukutente23: Sir, Why are you so obsessed with how Obidients are playing opposition that you've constituted yourself into an opposition to the opposition? Why don't you play the opposition to the govt and show these pesky Obidients how it's done?
Once more, why would you want to funnel me down a certain path regarding what I post ? Tok ya own make I tok my own.
You didn't come to Nairaland to satisfy me with your posts and, you know what, vice versa.
What are you going to complain about next, that I never post about how lovely that boy's wig is, the one whose birthday Peter Obi's son celebrated in such a lovely and intimate manner
Obidients bullied me so I will always go after them, first, second and third.
00FFT00: Defender of nonsense. Your APC is saintly and pius. An incompetent man who wore shoes a few sizes bigger than him, is now clutching at straws.
I thought they said Tinubu is an all American accountant, he will turn Nigeria into an eldorado, let's not even remember how he ruined Lagos, why are you lots engaged to launder his mounting failures.
Are we to infer that you do not have better remmunerating activities to engage your times with?.
I am no more APC than you are ergo, I am not APC.
I have not been renunerated by them, another false claim that DSS should make you prove.
Thankfully, you Obidients are playing opposition politics in a mature and decent way such that neutrals like me plus APC people can't wait for the elections in 2027 so we can vote Peter Obí who would then turn Nigeria into the Eldoraso he turned Anambra state into. Nor bi so?
00FFT00: Do not for once think some of us are not paying attention to your activities here. That threat up there, an attempt to intimidate and stiffle the opinion of a fellow discussant is noted as well.
You hate people of the East, that's your good right. It is equally your right to support the man we see you do, but what you cannot do is threaten people for the opinion they have.
You seem to suggest that Seun is logging ip addresses in readiness for same to be used against forum participants.
Seun
No One is intimidating you, you said President Tinubu stole your mandate, if you have proof, I am sure you will present it when asked by the relevant authorities, right?
You do know mandate stealing is a heinous offence when proven.
I don't hate Easterners, I find Obidients who say stuff that they can't prove tiresome, not all Easterners are Obidients. Stop with the needless bait-and-switch bikonu.
00FFT00: Tinubu soiled his filthy hands in his obviously failed attempt to convulse and incapacitate the Labour party as he continues to do to all other opposition parties.
As it stands today, Tinubu is the biggest threat to democracy in Africa. However, we are comforted that his hightened attempts to muzzle legitimate opposition to his illegal self-imposition in Nigeria political leadership will implode in due time.
What convulsed and incapacitated LP wasn't President Tinubu, it was the greed of people, both existing party members and imported Obidient ones, in determinating the formula to use to share the Obidient money rain.
Once Madam treasurer had to resign as she wanted to audit the monies and wasn't allowed to, the party was always going to break into warring and bitter factions.
stuffs2002: Aisha Yesufu thinks she is immune from OBIDIENTS insults. Aisha's turn is coming and we will all laugh at her when the OBIDIENTS turn on her.
OBIDIENTS na dog wey fit bite anyone that has the smallest disagreement with Peter Obi
Soon and very soon.
She saw what happened to Kenneth Okonkwo and knows what's coming.
AustineE1: So now,you want to apply the instrument of fear,so that people may no longer say the obvious! Continue,you only speak of DSS when it goes against your principal but then your ilks stay online insulting Peter Obi,Atiku and other opposition leaders and always presenting falsehoods against them...I guess you think they shouldn't be protected by law.
First off, President Tinubu is not my principal, I have never voted for him and doubt I ever will.
Anyone that repeats falsehoods against others, an example if your stolen mandate claim against INEC, should have DSS knocking on their door. Be they against Atiku or Peter Obí, simple.
By the way, Dino is the one, with a luxurious fleet of cars in his garage no less, that officially introduced Peter Obí to ADC, knowing fully well that he is unequivocally supporting Atiku for the presidential ticket that Peter Obí is desperately craving.
You like to make too much unnecessary noise. Whatever our neigbours did to the North or West is their own problem among them.
The point I am trying to make to you is that our neigbours don't hate our son Gej & never did. They were not the one who gathered at Ojota to protest against him. From the realities of today, under Buhari, presently under Tinubu your kinsman, Nigeria was doing a lot better.
Our neigbours were not the ones who hated Jonathan ir ND. Infact they supported GEJ which made the West to hate them more.
You can tell wike & Akpabio to vote heavily for Tinubu. They have control all over us in the ND. They will deliever the whole SS votes to Tinubu
You can continue making noise & abusing the ND.
Oh dear, who is it that hated or abused the Niger Delta again and when?
Where exactly have I declared President Tinubu to be my kinsman or where haven't I ? You are from Niger Delta, or claim to be, yet you are very Obidient, why do you think all those that don't accept the falsehood you peddle either support Tinubu or are his kinsmen?
Our neighbours, our neighbours, yet you accuse others of making unnecessary noise, Ọga preacher, bikonu heal thyself.
