Can we also state clearly that Tinubu's call in 2014 to GEJ to resign was also childish, undemocratic and unnecessary distraction?

Afrojuju2017:
The successive governors in the SW have been either incompetent or distracted, it's only in the last 6years that many of them have been able to settle their reoccurring expenses within their states, and ultimately they lacked grand vision and conviction

As much as state governors have their blame,due to the structure of the country, everything falls at the doorsteps of the president!
Security
Resource control
Sea port
Funding
Economy
All fall within the control of the president!
So far he hasn't handled it well.
If he wants to get less of the blame,he should decentralize very important structures to the states!

But this isn't the duty of DSS nah

HacheNoire:
But yours does not?

It is called democracy for a reason!

People have a right to their choices and that you must respect.

It's unfortunate that you are unaware that such choice as you so proclaim is actually a criminal offence which attracts a 12 months imprisonment!

Democracy without rule of law is a recipe for disaster!

HacheNoire:

Don’t castigate people for the reasons and choices they made. They are eligible voters by age.

Those choices have consequences!

Afrojuju2017:
It's easier for me to propose these solutions they know the realities that I may not have considered. They have their own plans.

The SW DAWN commission has already drawn up a development plan for cross state public transport across their region using the funds from the development commission

This has been done long before the establishment of the development commission which in my opinion is just a repetition of already established agencies....why has it not been operational knowing fully well that it's one of the key reasons why local products are more expensive than the imported products?

We keep hearing about plans without corresponding actions for more than 3 years of this incompetent administration!

Even when operational,it doesn't serve those who need it most because the system isn't effective and efficient!

Until the key components like effective security,reduced transport cost,accessible roads etc are proactively and aggressively addressed,imported products unfortunately will keep dominating local products!

Afrojuju2017:
You see how I proposed a viable solution, I just don't critic the FG I proffer what I would give the opportunity. It's however our duty to hold out state governors accountable because that is the true bane of our existence

How many of those solutions have been implemented by the administration?

This is a timely warning to young men...Just a few mins of emotional madness can land you in prison for many years!

Know when to walk away if or when you are provoked!

Civility is not a sign of weakness and crudity is not a sign of strength!

Afrojuju2017:
The FG can't influence transport costs intra-state without going back to the dark days of subsidy.

However by making a special fund available or backing financing for state governments that want to implement mass transit as we see in Lagos they can do this.

Also with their revival of inter-state rail service by the NRS they can influence cost of transit across the country.

But it has to be mass transit, rail metro line and large volume bus systems like BRT

Oh yes they can and you just mentioned one of them.
If we don't reduce transport cost, similar imported products will be cheaper than local products!

mmsen:
You decrease import dependence by increasing domestic production.

In order to increase domestic production you MUST have constant, affordable electricity.

Have they done that?

Nice one!
Also include security,low transport cost etc

All these to convince FG to keep collecting loans so that they can continue their ostentatious lifestyle!

The preposterous part of this is data boys believing that a monetary institution like IMF have the best interest of Nigeria or even want Nigeria's development!

This is the same institution who only few days ago 'recommended' and advised the FG to extend Value Added Tax (VAT) to petroleum/fuel products and introducing excise duties on telecommunications services.


This is the same financial institution that will tell heavily indebted countries about their very healthy status only for those countries to hit rock bottom some few months later after collecting more hefty loans!


This is like believing that a bank has the best interest of a heavily indebted customer by trying to convince him of their healthy bank account status in order to obtain more loans!

These are the kind of comments or remarks that will put the lives of the kidnapped victims at risk!
Even if your intention is to chase out an entire tribe from your region,which I find ridiculous and stupeed,atleast do so with commonsense!

gigabyte13:
Like Obi like Gumi
Birds of a feather.....
Terrorist Apologist......

The topic of the thread reads Gumi but your obsession for Obi can't stop you from mentioning his name!

If this reckless statements came out from someone from the south,military personnel would have been sent to kidnap him!

Congratulations in advance to the incumbent state governor of ekiti state.
To be honest,with or without rigging he would have still won by a landslide!
Neither PDP or ADC would have posed any serious challenge against APC in ekiti state Guber election as both parties still have pending multiplity of crisis and they remain factionalized!

PDPdestroyer:
I don’t know where OP is getting his own reports though, but the NDC situation room set up in my Obidient neighbour’s one-room apartment, tells a completely different story. As at the last time I checked his update, NDC is leading by a landslide

Obsession unlimited!
These data boys are deluded😁

Adringa nah just waste.
That pass by pepe should have been a goal.
Ivory coast is playing well but their front men are letting them down.
They will still qualify from this group!

Hope this is not a ploy to deodorize a corrupt politician like orji uzor kalu who has faced multiple counts (around 27–107 in different reports) of fraud, corruption, and money laundering. The core allegation was that he, along with his company Slok Nigeria Limited and a former Director of Finance and Accounts in Abia State (Ude/Udeogu Jones), diverted approximately N7.1–7.65 billion (roughly $20+ million at the time) from Abia State government funds.
He even went to prison sef😎

Kobojunkie:
she is literally explaining that her considering the change in her next life has to do with the mocking she now gets from people in her community. Why do you need to make that about my person? 🥱

Your opinion,your choice!
Doesn't take away the fact that one of a woman's basic fulfillment in life is to get married and bear children.
Only a delusional person will think otherwise!

2. No women yet about 25% of women born in every generation go on to never marry or have children? E be like say reality no dey ever agree with una. 🥱

I thought you would have claimed the reason why 25% of the claimed women were single is because they chose to be so!

3. Natural fulfillment, yet same nature denies a good portion of women the ability to marry and/or have children? More importantly, why does nature not guarantee only this one part to fulfillment to all? Again, why e be say reality dey always fail una particular delusions left and right? 🥱

Have you agreed that every woman's dream is to get married and raise kids including the ones forming single and happy?

Kobojunkie:
So far she seems to have borne the consequences well. However, it seems the society she lives in is the problem. 🥱

That's according to your own interpretation not hers!
No woman can bear the consequences of such decision!

Getting married and ultimately having kids is naturally a 'fulfillment' for any woman!

Anyone who says otherwise is delusional!

Whenever you take such humongous decision of not getting married or bearing kids,realize that such decision has consequences!

No matter what you do....good or bad....there will always be consequences!

The question is can you bear the responsibilities and consequences of your actions in the future?

yarimo:
ok

Go take your meds!

chopnaira:
PDP is coming 2nd. It's still the only viable opposition in Nigeria. Its starting to look like abuja results.

At this point, ADC and NDC are just wasting their time for 2027. ADC would come 3rd. NDC would even he lucky to come 4th.

Did your WhatsApp admin not properly inform you that NDC cannot be on the ekiti Guber ballot due to the fact that they are a new party and primaries of Guber election were held last year?

yarimo:
when he always react or condemn incident in Lagos state was he the president? You need to take your malaria drugs seriously before quoting

You must have taken an overdose of your meds when he reacted to matters happening in other states or his state!
Nah your type go tell your babe say you no fit satisfy her because of Obi 😭😭

yarimo:
Peter obi and oby ezekwesili will never react or condemn it since it wasn't in Lagos state

Is Obi now the president of Nigeria?
This is what happens when you skip your afternoon meds!

To be honest,it's national assembly not INEC!
The national assembly members make laws!
If they truly want INEC which is an electoral institution to be truly independent and function effectively,they know the kind of laws to create!

All the national assembly needs to do is to remove the power of the president to appoint the national chairman and officials of INEC!

Constant Foamy urine indicates your kidney is warning you that it might soon shut down!

Increased faac allocation doesn't amount to more funds for the states in terms of value or purchasing power!
It's like bragging about increasing civil servants minimum wage from 33k to 70k but the purchasing power of 70k is almost the same as 33k under Buhari!
What the FG did was to increase the volume of funds but the value remains the same or even less!

Vision101:
Obi has been the one talking anyhow. How many times have you heard Atiku talk? Achievers talk less and their work speaks for them while none achievers make all the noise to attract undue attention. Obi show us your landmark achievements as Anambra state governor that are still standing today.

Firstly,Obi is a citizen of Nigeria and has every right to talk about the ills of the society he resides!

Secondly,as opposition,he has a moral duty like every well meaning Nigeria with influence to call out the current administration to be alive to their responsibilities!

There is nothing like talking anyhow!
If his anyhow talk like you erroneously opine can make the ineptitude and incompetent Tinubu wake up to his most basic responsibility which is security,so be it and long may it continue!

Sowore like I had stated earlier talks even more to the press than any other candidate but hardly gets attacked or abused like Obi!
It's obvious who the real opposition candidates is....

Interestingly,I like the fact that data boys are getting obsessed with Obi because it's obvious he is the only opposition against Tinubu!

If you know you can't withstand the anxiety that comes with watching football games,please watch the replay later!

The day someone kpai for my front because of footie was the day I started taking my health matters seriously and stopped watching live matches!

HBP is real oh!

RIP to her!
