chinjo:
If Atiku is not relevant why is everyone in APC talking about Atiku defection to PDP?

Because everyone in PDP and anti-APC is talking about it, so the APC needs to reassure its members that "nothing dey happen".

A good party chairman would have said he would look into the issues Atiku raised and address them

Not when the issues raised is just a smokescreen to cover the real issue - Atiku simply seeks to further his presidential ambition and he knows that it's 2019 or never. As PMB is likely to get the APC ticket in 2019, the only logical thing for Atiku is to shop elsewhere.

Politics › Re: See Power Generated By One State In Canada by Bevista: 8:13am On Dec 06, 2017*

obaataaokpaewu:
It's not the size of a country that makes use of the power rather it's the population of the country. For 1million population, you need to generate 1000mw of power. At 180million population, Nigeria needs about 180000mw. How much do we generate? It's a "funnily" annoying situation we have here

This is entirely correct! It's misleading to discuss Power needs on the basis of land mass, rather it should be on the basis of population (per capita).
---
Comparing Nigeria with Ontario on a per capita basis, Nigeria should be generating over 180,000MW of electricity to come close. But here we are still grappling with a meagre 4,000MW.

Politics › Re: If You Accuse Me Of Changing Parties, Buhari Is Also Guilty - Atiku by Bevista: 6:16pm On Dec 05, 2017*

Atiku was asked why he can't enter America. His only defense was that Buhari was also denied entry. Now, he is asked about his Party Prostitution, and all he has to say is that Buhari also changed parties.
---
Atiku is a criminal who has zero principles and values. He thinks always comparing his circumstances with Buhari will equate them.
---
He talks about managing a business successfully and that qualifies him to manage a country properly. Very nonsensical argument! Can he tell me the percentage of world leaders who were business men before getting into business. The best world leaders were never business men. Even the almighty US rarely has a business man as president (Trump will never rank with Clinton, Lincoln Kennedy, etc). Business men only think about profits, when politics is really about people's welfare. Simply put, the narrative that *A Good Business Man Will Make A Good President* is rubbish and has no empirical basis.

He prayed that the Senate set up a committee to investigate the allegations of human rights abuse by SARS.

The Senate President, Bukola Saraki, noted that the issue should be given urgent attention as it affects many Nigerians.

“I think it is clear that something wrong is going on and it needs urgent attention,” he said.

The Senate referred the issue to the ad-hoc committee on security already set up.

A take away from the #EndSARS campaign is a demonstration of People Power. When a people are truly United in their demands, the Leaders are always forced to listen. Once there is tribal or religious posturing, then leaders find a loophole to exploit for their divide and rule tactics.

I swear by the Almighty God that I will pray and fast when it is few days to the elections that Buhari should NOT win the election. NEVER.. NO WAY. Buhari's consciousness is has deteriorating at the fastest speed such that he is not even aware of what is happening. Ask Buhari what is happening to Maina, his Attorney General. What is happening between efcc and dss. Ok, just tell him that Abba Kyari is sleeping with his wife in other room, Buhari body system (health)will not allow him to respond. We cannot vote him to avoid complete finish. God will not allow Buhari into power to increase these slave trade in Libya and other countries, to allow for more suicides, to allow for this our self bumbardment as was the case where our fighter jet flee out of its location, travel straight to our own IDP, pin pointed them and bumb them, thus killing more than thousands of innocent Nigerians, to kill more Shiits,. In fact all those planning to vote for Buhari will be punish by God Almighty. Amen.

bobnatlo:
Well for me what Nana said is quite rare for an African leader. But I really wonder if it's really called for.
Because I don't think that France and other western is in anyway Ghana's problem. That Ghana can't finance there budget is first an internal problem caused by Ghana on Ghana. Because France n others are just trying to help u out of a problem u created. So, if as a leader he feels that must change. Then I don't see any need to make so much noise about that in front of France. Let Nana fold his sleeve, stoop and get to the task of getting his country out the doldrums. It'll just a matter of time and the results will visible to all and Ghana will have more respect from her former donors.
Because I believe that the best answer to insult is results, period.

The Ghanaian president wasn't blaming the West. He was talking to the Ghanaian people, trying to galvanize them to stop their mindset of dependency and take the destiny of their country in their own hands. He ended by saying that he'll use his office as president to show leadership in that regard.

I really don't know why some people don't trust this FFK, i can remember vividly watching one of his interviews on channels tv in 2014, he stated clearly that APC is about to Islamize and ruin Nigeria in their secret agenda as he was once an APC member, even then he was not in good terms with the incumbent president Mr Goodluck Jonathan then.

It's time people should start listening to this man and his early warnings !!

Arrant nonsense! He claims to have given warnings and predictions severally in the past (some in far away USA), yet he said nothing about all his time he was part of the FG as SA and Minister. I suppose all was perfect then. FFK is all knowing and he does no wrong.

The buffoon says - "We were once the giant of Africa but over the last two years we have been reduced into a weak, impoverished and inconsequential vassal state". Very idiotic statement! I'm sure FFK and his PDP minions built Nigeria into a WORLD POWER, only for Buhari to destroy all in 2 years.
---
I voted for this government, and like most Nigerians, I have been less than impressed with their performance. The administration has low inertia. But with a campaign like what FFK is doing, I'll be vigorously campaigning for the return of PMB.

SouthEastFacts:
A chunk of the revenue came from debts. Aggressive tax drive kills investments, unless the drive is to widen the tax net, that is capture more people into the net. Sincerely speaking, without debts, Lagos cannot fund a 1 Trillion NGN budget, but has the potential.

Almost every Govt in Nigeria funds its budget using a mixture of Debt, IGR and Federal Allocation. The proportions differ for each state.

By aggressive Tax drive, I wasn't referring to increasing taxes, but rather getting more economic entities into the tax net.

Do Nigerian political parties ever discuss issues bothering on development and governance? Or is it always about grabbing power? The state of Africa is no coincidence, neither is it the work of the West. We just don't get it as a people. We can blame Jonathan, Buhari or Atiku for all I care, as long as the overriding mentality of the people is flawed, the society itself will remain flawed.

The APC is making significant inroads in the SS/SE regions. The APC FG has made a number of appointments in those regions meaning those appointees will have significant resources to mobilise voters for the party.

They will definitely not win there and they don't even expect to do so. They just need 25%+ in those states. The Anambra elections is already a pointer of what to expect come 2019.

If renting a mammoth crowd gives the PDP a false sense of popularity, then they are free to continue in their delusion.
---
Beyond the crowd, let me remind you a few facts: Sule Lamido was a sitting governor in Jigawa state in 2015 yet he could only deliver 143k votes for his party presidential candidate. In contrast, the APC presidential candidate polled over 885k votes in the state. Just recently (July 2017), the APC won chairmanship elections in all 27 LGAs in the state. Now, go figure!
---
CONCLUSION: A rented crowd is no indices for measuring true popularity!

The margin of defeat the PDP will experience in the north come 2019 will embarrass even the neutrals.

The summary of the article is that Atiku lacks political principles and values.
---
I've seen folks try to compare and justify Atiku's party prostitution to the fact that PMB contested election in APP, ANPP, CPC and APC. What they fail to realise is that PMB NEVER left his party at any time to join an already existing party. APP metamorphosed into ANPP (just like AC metamorphosed into ACN). He then left ANPP to form his own party (CPC). CPC then joined forces with other parties to metamorphose into APC.
---
Should Atiku go ahead to become flag bearer of PDP, then the 2019 general elections will be an interesting one. We shall reserve further comments for now and simply continue to watch as events unfold in the political space. But as at today, my money is 100% on PMB to win the 2019 elections.
