False. They've all given their speeches. None of them stepped down

afrodoc2:
Guarantee security?

It was during military rule that armed robbers started writing letters to entire streets telling them to get prepared for armed robbery exercise.

I t was during Abacha's rule that people started going missing in increasing numbers

popizaino:
Military guarantee your security,does this government do the same ?

Itsrm:
If you are watching this primaries and you still think Atiku will win then you are deceiving yourself .

Omo see the love

Joezinho:
They are gonna say for the mere fact I can even write this is something to show for it or say I am less than 30 years that's why i love military rule.

Truth is , democracy has failed Nigeria. 23 years of uninterrupted years of democracy, what have we to show for it?

Almost all the laws were made by the Miitary, amended by the civilians, let them tell me one law the National Assembly has made since 1999 that has impacted their lives..

Despite being being under economic sanctions from Western nations Abacha declined IMF conditions for loan,grew the federal reserves..
Maintained the value of Naira at exchange rate of N22=$1 (through his 5years -never devalued Naira 1kobo), overhauled the corrupt banking system, reduced inflation from 54% to 8%,
brought privatisation policy implemented by Babangida to a gradual stop.

Our sporting achievements were at their best! We won 2 gold medals 1996 olympics, we won Africa Cup of Nations 1994..

Let them tell us what these greedy bastards have done aside looting.

Daniel Kanu’s YEAA was different from this one. This was the adults and other shameless politicians earnestly asking for Abacha. You have forgotten that 4 out of the 5 political parties nominated Abacha to run for President.
Evan many of the traditional rulers were asking him to continue his good work.

afrodoc2:
There was this guy in Defence Intelligence that used to carry home Ghana must go bag full of money every Friday.

Abacha’s son was physically driving into CBN regularly with naira and driving out with dollars at a special preferential rate.

The level of fear on the street and in homes was next level. Buses became very dangerous places to discuss politics.

The part that makes me laugh now is when I remember every week NTA would show a state trying to outdo the others in the game of sycophancy. One week it would be Abia State women that will be dancing and shaking yansh in front of Abacha begging him to run for President, the next week it will be Ondo State women.

Ambode deputy, Mrs Adebule defeat Obanikoro to win APC Lagos West senatorial ticket.

Father and son lost. ;

You still think money is everything in a delegate election?

Actman05:
Man was dropping tears telling us people bought the form for him

Itsrm:
You just brought back those memories

I still remember my mum using axe to cut wood to cook. She was a Nurse in a govt hospital. Those were dark days in the history of Nigeria.

donjazet:
This is what not teaching history in school causes. People forget the terrorism of bad leaders on their subjects. Rather than look at countries like north Korea, Russia, Cameroon etc and seeing the dangers of dictatorship, they'll foolishly be yearning a return to such suffering.

Many of these authoritarian countries are cut off from the rest of the world. In some of these countries, their internet is blocked or heavily restricted. In some, they can't communicate with the rest of the world.

This is what people say we should go back to. Chai.

I just came across this video that partly exposes how corrupt our military rulers were because of our oil.

raumdeuter:
What can surprise anyone again?

God spare your life. In 10yrs you will see how people will eulogize Buhari and wish he was still alive.

Imagine Abacha the lowest of lows for people. You think say Abacha go dey and you Chelsea people go dey insult me anyhow?

By now DMI Sabo, Sgt Roger's AlMustapha for don visit you one by one

larride:
Yayi leave Lagos West to contest Ogun West senate seat under APC after being a two term senator in Lagos.

Final voting result:

Total delegate: 295

Yayi - 294
Senator Odebiyi - 0
Void - 1



Man is already scheming for Ogun State Governorship.

donstan18:
Some of you should calm down and read how Gaddafi started in Libya before he made the country better.

popizaino:
God bless you.

iamoyindamola:
Those funds long die na every year them they recover small out of it

Amoto94:
Forever in our hearts, Abacha. Even when others were celebrating your death I never did because you were trying to fix a broken country but those who wanted the country for themselves made attempts to sabotage your efforts and in a bid to get rid of some you stepped on some toes and innocent people were caught in the crossfire. Decades later the promiseland that the democrats promised is yet to be arrived at, instead our condition got worsened by the cheats

GloriousGbola:
We were NOT better off during the abacha years. In fact the Buhari years are a lot like the abacha years, a descent into poverty and tyranny.

We can even match the smelly fuel for methanol fuel

With the price of gas and kerosene e remain small for abacha stove to make a comeback as Buhari stove

The only thing one can say is a chosen few are hammering simply as a result of access.

afrodoc2:
Yeah euphoria is the right word. Some street peddlers were giving out their food and drinks for nothing. People naively thought our problems were over.

afrodoc2:
Really? That day Ojuelegba nearly scattered. I was on a bus going from Lawanson to Yaba. We initially thought that there was a riot happening somewhere ahead because there was a deep rumbling of noise. We were considering dropping from the bus when we started seeing people crying and hugging one another. Then the street peddlers and urchins started running along the cars hitting the doors and screaming that the boss man was dead.

PDPGuy:
Bro, I’m still surprised as to how people underrate the wealth of Wike, someone has been a governor of the richest oil producing state in Naija for SEVEN years. That dude has, conservatively, garnered at least N120 billion to himself from RSG accounts

FERNANDEZISBACK:
You already had a bite before you thought of taking a picture?

lordfalcao:
See this two individuals

Spy360:
Are you Ok? Because if you are you will understand that we are talking about the worst of the worst.

If you can't keep things into perspective, just read and pass.

DissTroy:
Those privatized companies earn in same Naira today and we know them.

I repeat, Wike and Udom have faced less of the scrutiny for the public funds they have access to, Udom especially.

Less than 30 percent of the IGR of both states are publicly declared.

There's a reason both governors have the PDP solidly in their palms and others jumping how high they ask - they have the money to bully Atiku's control.

Atiku was a V.P. 15 years ago, these men became governors after the Niger-Delta started getting 13℅ derivative. Not an endorsement of the governor but whatever you think both states are worth, multiply that by 3 and that's the actual figure; and both governors control the resources unchallenged.

Atiku diverted $100million? That's like 50 billion today which is peanuts compared to what Udom alone has access to in a month ala International Worship Centre, Overhead cost and a few. Monthly!

You want me to breakdown Akwa Ibom State yearly earning and how hundreds of billions are unaccounted for? Who do you think has those monies? With links and all!


Again, what is Atiku's networth, or the valuation of the companies he owns or his cronies? Juxtapose that by the monies Wike and Udom have access to monthly. But both have somehow managed to escape real public scrutiny.

Atiku can't beat the monies both governors have access to. Not in his dreams.
