OALandAgents:
Buhari was such a genius and even a magician, he managed to get by without hiking the price of fuel, he avoided the inflation of prices of all utilities, goods and services and still ensured there was no fuel scarcity even in the absence of fuel from Dangote refinery.

So was Buhari a genius and magician?

Tinubu can never lace Buhari's shoes in the management of the Nigerian economy. In fact, the worst of Buhari's is better than Tinubu's best. Unfortunately, Tinubu's best is disaster.

Look at all these enemies of Nigeria that love to celebrate any negative news

Anyone who says the truth is automatically an enemy of Nigeria, but you aren't an enemy when you engage in spreading lies, falsehoods, and propaganda.

Their choice is okpebholo I mean.they will never vote a clown that jumps from tables to chairs over someone that undertakes projects for them

We say the truth when we say things unconsciously

Their choice is Asue

garfield1:


No sir,their choice is Asue.

Good you know

garfield1:


I obviously don't want asue

The people of Edo state will make that choice not you

Infact, from information on ground, their choice is Asue

garfield1:


I rather support such candidate with human empathy and love for his people than one who has no regard for his culture

It's obvious you don't know what you want

garfield1, Is it true you are projecting a candidate who failed WAEC at 36 to lead the people of Edo State?

First, a candidate who became a guinea pig student at the government college in Lagos used to test run the school four years before it was founded. Now this

Why! garfield1 why

By George Etakibuebu

In Edo State, the political conversation has continued to revolve around the governorship candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the September 21 election, Dr Asue Ighodalo. His unprecedented acceptance and popularity is sweeping across the state like wild harmattan fire in the month of January. He’s been described as a confluence of vision, competence, capacity, compassion, integrity and to a large extent a very warm personality. His vision for the state is crystal clear; his voice is loud, coherent and unambiguous. His willingness to drive the process for development and prosperity, infectious and very convincing. So far, nobody who has had the opportunity to interact with him or listen to him fails to acknowledge that he is truly in his own class. He is literally head and shoulders taller than any other candidate in the contest.


Fact is, as campaigns for the September 21 governorship election formally got under way, it is important to state that Edolites must in one accord agree and vote massively for Ighodalo, the man who comes across as Solid Gold in the contest. By the same token, they must avoid candidates without cognate administrative experience either in the public or private sector and international exposure and connections. Truth is without these essential requisites, no one can govern any state successfully. This is exactly where Ighodalo is in a class of his own.


With his experience, exposure and contacts as chairman in many corporate organisations, sitting on the board of many companies and having being within the precincts of the corridors of power in Edo State from the days of Senator Comrade Adams Oshiomhole, through all these years as Chairman of Alaghodaro, he is sufficiently equipped for the job at hand. What stands Ighodalo out of the crowd are many, and no other candidate can boast half of them.

As an individual, Ighodalo is highly charismatic, sociable, accessible and friendly; he is in particular youth and women friendly. His background counts for him a lot. Having a mother that was the first female permanent secretary in Nigeria, and a father among the first trained accountants in the likes of Akintola Williams and having as a junior brother a very popular cleric by name Pastor Itua Ighodalo, all speak to an enviable pedigree. Little wonder, he exudes humility, confidence and integrity. Significantly, he is an ardent respecter of culture and tradition. Simply put, Ighodalo is the Solid Gold that must not be traded for anything else.


Before now, what many people had canvassed as his shortcoming – the question of Ighodalo’s political experience – has been destroyed as a weak and ineffective argument. It has been the question raised by those who ostensibly feel threatened and diminished by his towering credentials and what Chinua Achebe called “solid personal achievements” in his enduring classic, Things Fall Apart.

Often than not, people tend to underrate the amount of political power-play that goes on in the boardroom. When a man is the chairman of several top flight companies, you know he must be adept at playing politics. The truth is that boardroom politics is even tenser and more tasking than the partisan politics we are talking about. Boardroom politics is more difficult. So, for someone who was able to sit on top of about six companies, he must have gained a lot of experience to deal with difficult situations. So, it is a massive plus that Ighodalo has come to the table with a mixture of corporate and partisan experiences.


Talking to a group of young men and women in one of his numerous engagements recently, Ighodalo declared: “When I was in secondary school, I could go to school and come back home with an empty suitcase, I mean I might lose all my clothes and there wouldn’t be an uproar. But if I came home with a pencil that was not mine, I would be in big trouble. This was a time when the home was a haven for teaching right, and the school was a haven for topping up on teaching right. Now if we get that right, we will be able to build more responsible leadership and more responsible followership. If we don’t build a responsible society, we can’t progress.


“The second thing is that we have to take care of our security. Nothing is going to happen if we don’t get our security right. Tourists won’t come even our people in the Diaspora won’t come home, serious investors won’t come and our farmers won’t be able to farm, so we have to deal with security and it is a major issue for me.

“The next thing is revenue generation. How are we going to build revenue? The shortest way is to use other people’s money. How are you going to get other people’s money? You can only get other people’s money if they trust you. So we have to run a transparent government that is accountable, that knows what it is doing and that can buy the trust of other people’s money.


“All I am trying to sell is this; that I have an understanding as to how I can build an Edo State that will move from a Third World environment into a First World environment regardless of what is happening at the centre. With your support, we can build the Edo of our dreams, a state we can be proud to call home.”

Here’s a man who clearly knows what the issues are and has ready solutions for the identified problems. Ighodalo is not just one of the candidates, he is the candidate who knows his destination from the beginning and the route to get there.


Then, there is the call for fairness, equity and justice which has dominated political discourse in the state for a long time. It is the turn of Edo Central Senatorial District to produce the governor where Ighodalo hails from.

In the last 24 years, Edo North has ruled the state for eight years and by the time incumbent governor, Mr Godwin Obaseki, is done by November, Edo South would have also had it for 16 years since the return of democratic rule in 1999. In the over 24 years, Edo Central has produced the governor only for 18 months (May 2007 to November 2008). But then, some opinion moulders have insisted that with Ighodalo, it is even beyond zoning, saying the people are looking at the competence of the three major candidates. They argued that it was not just enough to zone, but zone to a competent person.


As an Edolite, wouldn’t you rather vote for Ighodalo, the Solid Gold?

Okoroawusa:
This is not an official report but Obidients will believe it anyway . It's no longer propaganda

But if the report had said that there's enough chicken due to the agricultural policies of the Renewed HopeShege agenda, you wouldn't question if it's an official report or not. You would have swallowed it hook line and sinker.

You are just so pathetic.

It's a cash out season for the new DG

Kewtt:

After building several CNG bombs

IPIGSRSHALLOW:
My President.
When it's all said and done, Tinubu will end up as the best President that Nigeria has ever had.

This is not for the blind brainwashed low IQ IPOB retards.

But we still found ourselves in the biggest financial crisis in the history of this country after the removal of subsidies.

helinues:


Don't you people know how to mind your business without pokenosing into others affairs

Stop crying on my mentions guy

But you pokenose at others affairs. In fact, you are notorious for doing that here.

helinues:


Why do you guys just like to cry on my mentions for no reason.

I attacked my kingsmen, why should that be your headache nitori olorun

Make una stop this busy body of a thing jare

Don't you want Yoruba Nation to be actualized?

Under Anti corruption, Chatgpt was generous to have given Tinubu 3 when it should have been 0

helinues:
Hahahah

See this clowns 🤡

They are your kingsmen

Don't you want Yoruba Nation to actualized?

Tinubu himself doesn't believe in one Nigeria

MsAllison:
Tinubu is a criminal

You can say that again

Richtaiwo:
Tinubu is a visionary leader and he will be reelected in 2027. In 2031, he will handover to the North. A southerner from South South will take over in 2039. A fraudster can never become the president of Nigeria.

Is this all you could contribute to this wonderful thread talking about Tinubu removing the artificial element of value from our forex

slimfit1:
Buhari is not a serious human being not to talk of president , otherwise you won't be talking about photography at a time people can't even eat. Buhari is the most useless president a country can ever have. Tinubu still 100percent better than Buhari.

This is the biggest lie of the 21st century

PressMyButton:

You expect everything be all smooth within a year?, what did Obi achieve within a year?.
I don't think you know policies require processes and timelines.
If PDP were all that, they'd have at least constructed 2nd niger bridge for sake.

I don't expect everything to be smooth within a year, but you see, under this Tinubu regime, eight years will still be the same story.

I don't know why some of you Tinubu apologists can't stay without mentioning Peter Obi, now a private citizen, comparing his activities as governor of Anambra State with the activities of the current president of Nigeria. It shows that Peter Obi is really tormenting you a lot. He lives rent-free in your medulla oblongata.

— Cautions Afenifere on restructuring

— We’re fighting for our right


A group under the auspices of Yoruba Nation Youths both Home and Diaspora, has cautioned some leaders of Afenifere not to be an impediment in the actualization of Yoruba Nation.

They declared that they will continue to fight for self-determination for the Yoruba Nation until it becomes a reality.

The Youths who specifically disagreed with leaders of the pan-Yoruba socio-political organisation, Afenifere, on restructuring saying the Yoruba Nation wants self-determination not restructuring.

In a statement issued by the Yoruba Nation Youth Leader Diaspora, Prophet Ayodele Ologunloluwa and Comrade Oyegunle Oluwamayowa Omotoyole,

said that “why can’t all emulate Professor Banji Akintoye who have been championing Yoruba Nation self-determination.

According to them “We are not happy with the way and manner the leader of pan-Yoruba socio-political group, Afenifere, Chief Ayo Adebanjo and some leaders in the South West have been going about relegating the issue of actualization of Yoruba Nation.

“Why is Afenifere always attacking the advocates of Yoruba self-determination with such terrible venom.


“What do you gain from Nigeria that makes you so feverish in defending the continued Yoruba membership of Nigeria. What has the Yoruba gained in Nigeria.

“Secondly, why is a body like Afenifere never careful about creating the impression that we Yoruba are viciously divided.

“Why can’t you imitate the careful and respectful manner in which we of the Yoruba Nation always speak of Afenifere. Prof Akintoye warns us regularly to be respectful of Afenifere.

” Why can’t Afenifere do the same. Is it in Yoruba interest to appear often as violently divided.

“‘Thirdly, since some Yoruba persons are free to advocate restructuring, why do you seem to insist that other Yoruba persons are sinning by advocating Yoruba Nation and deserve to be insulted and crucified.


“Fourthly, here is something we have never wanted to raise because of our respect for Afenifere.

“It is the history of how we Yoruba people have become like slaves in Nigeria. The whole world knows how this disaster befell the Yoruba and the generation that bears the historical responsibility for it.

” Does it make sense that the same generation should still be pushing our Nation deeper and deeper into slavery.

“Finally, watch again the interview of Prof.Akimtoye with Dr Abati. When Prof Akintoye referred to Afenifere and restructuring, observe his respectful language.. Also observe his explanation about. Restructuring. Why can’t we all emulate this man”

“What we are saying is that enough is enough for those Yoruba leaders who are trying to truncate our efforts.


“Pa Ayo Adebanjo should desist from calling himself as Yoruba leader because we Youths won’t allow our future to be mortgaged by him.

“We don’t have confidence in him anymore and henceforth he should stop parading himself as Afenifere leader.

“We are also coming for those Traditional rulers who usually bestowed Chieftaincy titles on the Fulanis in Yoruba land.

“Youths are ready to fight for their rights. Chief Obafemi Awolowo had said it before now that when it is time, youths will rise up to fight for Yoruba Nation”, the youth they maintained.

The youths also disagreed with Yoruba farmers and state government in the South West to give land for herders In Yorubaland for farming.


They vowed that everything possible would be done by the youths to resist the proposed plans either for farming or grazing.

“We warn to both Yoruba farmers and State Governors in the South that if they continue with their plans to force the Fulani on our land, we are going to resist them and defend our lands from those killer herdsmen.

They however encouraged members to continue with the struggle in a peaceful manner saying that they will continue to fight for self-determination for the Yoruba until it becomes a reality.

Refinery rehabilitation is a thoughtless policy?, unification/floating of naira, electricity act, student loan, credit scheme, new minimum wage, menthanol plant, lithium plants, rehabilitation of steel plant, primary health care centers in each 774 LG, and numerous others. Mentim PDP thoughtful policies that comes close.

You are such a clown

All that you mentioned, what positive impact do they have on the lives of the common man because from what is on ground, Tinubu policies have ensured that the country have become a huge IDP camp

Comparing Tinubu regime with PDP regime, even Tinubu will be so ashamed of you for making such a baseless comparison that's not founded on fact

Wale Edun the current minister of finance recently confirmed that the last time Nigeria had a stable economy was during the PDP era

Paraman:
Tinubu won't fail.

But the signs that he is becoming a catastrophic failure are so glaring

Paraman:
He still have time to achieve better than that.

We hope so

If he doesn't, I believe you will consider him a catastrophic failure

It has never been this bad

Paraman:
#800/$

Let Tinubu achieve that milestone first

Paraman:
2000/$ before the end of April in the mud

How much was the Naira exchanging to a dollar when Tinubu took over in May 29, 2023
