Olaoluwa122:
Nah...the governor is at disadvantage The inner bigwigs of the A.P.C are not together...though with the choosing of tinubu as the presidential candidate of A.P.C thing might change but the gubernatorial election is close between the two main candidate...

Don’t believe the hype, even if they are throwing blows @ each other, no way Oyetola the incumbent will not win it.

I believe I read on Nairaland yesterday, that Adeleke’s running mate in 2019 just moved to APC?

Olaoluwa122:
Talking of gubernatorial election bruh...not presidential

I have gone beyond, it is in the bag, APC will win it easily, Adeleke is wasting his time, even Nyesom Wike has said he wouldn’t waste his time going to Osun State because it belongs to APC.

Same way no one wasted their time going to Ekiti State to campaign, South West belongs to APC, even so much more after Tinubu was selected for President.

Olaoluwa122:
Let see how Osun election will pan out

APC has the Southwest in the bag, no need to waste time on that region.

APC & Tinubu convincing other regions & States is an uphill task.

garfield1:
Win sw,nc,kwankwaso win nw tinubu seconf,atiku wins ne narrowly tinubu second is ok.

@ best, Tinubu will win only Kogi State, & the South West States. Finito.

No delegates to bribe, only him will believe his campaign fallacy of turning other states to Lagos State’s level that he did not do anything in.

garfield1:
Up tinubu

Rotimi Amaechi is waiting for Nyesom Wike across the isle come June 2023.

garfield1:
That would still be enough for tinubu to win.

Win only South West, & come 2nd in the North & 3rd in the other regions, how will that be enough to win?

garfield1:
Why is atiku stronghold in the south? Why not his own north? Or do you mean PDP strongholds are down south,what of his person strongholds? With the obi wave,are these southern strongholds still available?

Wike does not need to back anybody.he will just remain neutral during the presidential polls just like in 2019 and watch the direction of things...don't forget that Abe is leading the fight for tinubu in rivers and Abe is friendly with wike...

Except atiku drops okowa,there is nothing atiku can offer him.any other promise is just promissory note as atiku may not win and might renege if he wins.wike tolerated PDP in 2019,enough is enough.I believe ortom and fayose spoke his mind.all these men are for southern presidency

Wike should better pray Atiku wins, or else he will go to prison.

YourhealthNG2:
Give me just one plausible reason to vote APC again in 2023?

Let's be sincere and take away tribe and religion, just one good reason to vote APC again in 2023?

How can someone defend another vote for APC in 2023 in the face of the massive failure of the current regime?

What is the difference between members of APC, PDP & The Labor Party?

You are all the same.

SarkinYarki:
So because I come to Nairaland to I am idle ? you see why I always say your IQ is below 75 ? For your information I am a successful entrepreneur by any global standard and I have time to check NL anytime of the day through a mobile phone ..I am even having a legal meeting with my company lawyer right now as I type ..again how much have you brought into the Nigerian economy this year ?

Gerrout of here, Nonsense Pauper, legal meeting indeed, me I am with Dangote & Femi Otedola right now in his private jet, on our way to Monaco.

Successful entrepreneur indeed, oblivious Wailer.

SarkinYarki:
I have brought in about 200 million Naira into the Nigerian economy this year from investors abroad , how much have you brought in Buckeye ?

Joker, if you even brought in 2 million Naira, you wouldn’t be on Nairaland from morning to night shouting Buhari.

Keep deceiving yourself.

SarkinYarki:
Buckeye I feel pity for you ..can't you see how much Buhari has destroyed this country ? Do you know our trade deficit is now 7.6 trillion Naira ? It was 800 billion in 2015

What commodity did you trade in last year, how much did you make?

Lazy Almijiris like you are always the ones that make the most noise, but add nothing, Federal Government should come & trade for you?

Please tell me what commodity does your state have a comparative advantage in, & how much was generated from export of those commodities?

SarkinYarki:
Stop blaming crude oil ..the problem is Buhari Buhari Buhari ..you elect a man with the brain of a flea and expect things to work ...when oil price was low he blamed oil and now oil price is at its highest ever he is still blaming oil...are you aware under Buhari our trade deficit has jumped from 800 billion naira to 7.6 trillion Naira ?

You elected a man that allowed bandit terrorist to invade his country yet you dey find progresss?

The trade deficit has jumped? How won't it jump, when we have millions of lazy minded people like you, what did you do in helping yourself to try & reduce it? You think it is to be forming economist James Bond on Nairaland?

JavaScript90:
Buhari have practically killed Nigeria

Lazy Man, what did your state Government add to the Federal allocation for disbursement?

Nonsense beggars, it is always the ones that add nothing, that will lament the most.

Name 1 commodity that your state government or the organized private sector in your state exported for foreign exchange to help the economy?

Others should work, so the lazy ones like you will enjoy?

Be there wherever you are, waiting for Mr President, nonsense Almijiri.

SarkinYarki:
With oil prices at 130 dollars Buhari still failing ...when we warned you about this man una say una want Napa cert

Wailer what is the IGR of your state, can’t your state provide for you without Federal Government allocation?

Shameless Thing.

Truthisunique2:
you have said it all

Tinubu didn't seem himself having atiku clout when he made him ACN candidate

If he was sure of himself he would have contested by himself, but his only hope is to use a powerful northerner to first secure his party and run on a ruling party advantage

Damn right man.

garfield1:
Apc got 20% in rivers in 2019.they got 25% in crs,akwa ibom,delta,bayelsa with a radical Muslim like buhari.tinubu will get more

South South na we they finance Nigeria, Yoruba has nothing to offer us, we leave the status quo as is.

Let Fulani Hausa rule, They balance the political equation, no way South South will play second fiddle.

garfield1:
Juliusmalema, are you not tired of being against apc? Goodbye

Julius Malema’s problem is with ANC in South Africa, not APC in Nigeria, or are you confused?

garfield1:
You lie,atiku is not a grassroot politician.why didnt he win northeast.he always loses scandalously up north.tinubu will crush him

Atiku is most grassed rooted politician in Nigeria today, even Bola Tinubu is a student of Abubakar Atiku.

Tinubu’s only prowess over Atiku is that he has the funds of Lagos State @ his disposal.

Truthisunique2:
kwankwanso is going nowhere outside Kano and kastina, his base is kwankwasiya and the are limited to a geographic space.

Atiku is a grassroot house name in the talakawas mouth, the entire north east is his business base, I stayed in gombe, bauchi, taraba, yobe atiku adama company and radio station including other business are in the homes of everyone

North Central from Abuja, Kogi is his base when he is not in Adamawa, it is now tinubu have relocated to Abuja, atiku have been a household indegene since

North west would be shared by the two fulanis with atiku still topping

Atiku is a mathematician in politics least we forget, he was instrumental in bringing Buhari to power, & was quick to realize that baba had nothing to offer, hence the reason for the jump back to pdp.

President Buhari actually lost in 2019, if not for incumbent government magic & INEC systematic rigging.

garfield1:
Atiku can only win Ss narrowly.only delta can give him bloc votes.

Why will the South South vote for a Yoruba man, what can he offer them?

Please they will keep the status quo & vote pdp, Delta is pdp, Edo is pdp, Bayelsa is pdp, Akwa Ibom is pdp, Rivers is pdp.

Yoruba man has nothing to offer, no be them APC remove Jonathan South South from power put Buhari?

Then now you want them to vote for a Yoruba man?

garfield1:
Atiku is a kilba claiming fulaini.His area is christian dominated

Those 10s of millions of Almijiris will still vote Abubakar Atiku over Bola Tinubu Yoruba man anyday, anytime, it isn’t rocket science to them.

They know their own person.

garfield1:
Atiku is not even a fulani,he only claims to be.atiku lost his polling unit,how did he win! The north dont like him abeg

Why argue with you, if Tinubu wins the North, Atiku will win the South, election balanced?

Please stop been sentimental, most APC Abokis will support Atiku on Election Day, even APC’s Chairman Adamu is way way closer to Abubakar Atiku than Tinubu.

Even El Rufai is closer to Atiku than Tinubu.

garfield1:
They dont see atiku as their brother.once tinubu chooses a radical Muslim they will embrace him

Only the third eye blind are not aware that Abubakar Atiku won the 2019 election, if not for government magic, power of incumbency.

At best Tinubu will only win one state in Northern Nigeria, no true Northerner will trust Tinubu a Yoruba man, over their own Hausa Fulani Brother.

Why should they support him? That he will turn Sokoto & Kebbi to Lagos State that he did nothing, but plunder the State & put it in his agbada?

PaChukwudi44:
This people are only banking on rigging.It is crystal clear no magic will make Tinubu win in the North

@ best only Kogi State, What will he campaign on? that he will turn Northern States to be like Lagos State, as if he did anything in the first place in Eko.

Nonsense.

stanluiz:
Allow them let them continue pushing wike to his grave.

They are telling him to decamp to APC when Amaechi is still there. Wike has boys that are core pdp members. Some are contesting for senate, HOR , House of Assemblies etc

And they want Wike to decamp ? He will loose the little respect and control he has in Rivers State.

Wike should run from the house he helped build?, most of these ipobians making comments, if Atiku had chosen Wike all hell would have broken loose, they will remember that wike said that he was not Igbo & bring up how he personally chased ipob away from Rivers State, so Ohaneze would have said don’t support Atiku because he chose an Igbo hater to be his deputy.

Atiku made the right choice, let him lay on the bed that he made.

garfield1:
My brother,why not tell yourself the truth? You were against tinubu during the primaries but he still won.he has more chances than atiku and obi,you just hate him for nothing.are you even from the south?
The northerners,I mean core northerners dont like atiku.they prefer kwankwaso.only Christians like atiku.rivers votes are usually inflated.people hardly vote.once wike stays neutral,apc agents will run riot.the north will divide votes.ss will be divided bw obi and atiku,obi takes se.

So honestly speaking you actually think Northerners will vote for Tinubu a Yoruba man, before Abubakar Atiku their brother?

What has Tinubu done for the North, or he will come & tell them he will turn Gombe & Yobe to Lagos State if they vote for him?

garfield1:
https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=https://www.nairaland.com/5046462/pdp-agent-rejects-victory-atiku/2&ved=2ahUKEwiF5_Tpy9T4AhUVA7kGHbdEBVoQFnoECAQQAQ&usg=AOvVaw0jBv97MbXaP2_PTccjM5nAes.in those places that there is insecurity like katsina,borno,yobe,zamfara and atiku and kwankwaso does not have people there.those arras gives bloc votes...

Look at that link I posted above.a pdp agent in Adamawa raised alarm about inflation in Adamawa.atiku had to rig in order to win.if pdp had picked kwankwaso, he would easily win the north but as it stands, tinubu has a slight advantage.the core north might be divided among the three parties but north central will follow tinubu because they are tired of fulanis...then ss will be divided and once tinubu wins sw,its over

No Northerner will trust Tinubu a Yoruba man, please stop deceiving yourself.

The devil (Atiku) you know, is better than the Angel (Tinubu) that we are oblivious to.

Next we know MC Oluomo will be made a Minister.

Peacecore:
Lemme support Fayose for the first time. Atiku must be disgraced fully this time.

Jokers, Wike should pray pdp wins, if APC wins, Amaechi will make sure Wike goes to Prison, Nyesom knows what is best for him.

Maybe they will next blame President Buhari for his reappointment?

We Ipobians umu Chineke don't make mistakes, he Chief Robinson Ezebunanwa must have been sent as an agent of the Zoo people to cause confusion in Utopia Biafra.

minks:
Nigeria, the crawling giant of Africa needs help.
I only hope we make the right choice of president come 2023.

That is the problem with you people in Nigeria, still living in colonial & Military mentality, you think it is only one person that will change the system?

The political platforms have no ideology, sorry for you people, which political party is running with the notion of removing petroleum subsidy if they were elected into power?

Which political is running on international electricity tariff rates & revisiting the electricity agreements of Jonathan Goodluck?

Zeezenho:
Oga Tinubu na fraud and tabu that will never happen to Nigerian.he is the worst governor Lagos ever produced.a thief thug and bullie.

Jagaban the Criminal:

Dear Chief Tinubu,

I have always wondered why these intellectual almajiris around you always attack me under fake names.It is either they are afraid of me or they don’t believe in you to risk their names doing the dirty job for you .Well,we know many of them hold worst views about you than us but for the free money they have been accustomed to from a Robbin Hood.

The piece referenced was a rehash of same old silly lies and freshly minted ones.In keeping faith with my resolve that for every dart of lie you guys throw in my direction ,I will return 10 bombs of truth I make this response.And for every line I write,I can say like Fela Anikulapo-Kuti “Na true I wan talk again o,if I dey lie o,make Edumare punish me o”.

Since you guys made a failed attempt to impugn my integrity ,I have chosen to use this edition to place your life side-by-side mine on the scale of integrity so we can know if your hen can point at the boil in a hawk’s eye.I intend to show that were it not that Nigeria has become Ceaser’s palace where the leper holds the veil,nobody in your circle should move near that subject.

I am Yinka Odumakin and nobody can say he had known me under any identity in my life .I have led a straight life unlike you that people know under different identities depending on where they met you in your about 80 years on earth .Yes,80!

Those of us who are knowledgeable about you can’t buy your 66 claim for so many reasons .The current governor of Osun is the son of your immediate senior sister from Iragbiji and he is 63 while you are claiming 66. Your first wife died in Lagos recently unannounced at 74 .

When the son he had for you died many moths earlier his age had to be doctored to fit into the lie that you live. And there is a photograph of yours at the palace of Soun Ogbomoso in 1974 when the current monarch was installed with a bottle of beer and packet of cigarette in your front. You mean you were 20 when you were drinking and smoking in a palace ?

There is no school I have attended in my life that my classmates would not come out in droves to say “yeah, we were there together!”. From St Augustine Primary School, Ondo to CAC Grammar School, Edunabon and Oduduwa College Ile -Ife down to Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile -Ife and University of Ghana.

At your end St John Primary School Aroloya you claimed may be created by your new governor in Lagos. The old boys of Government College Ibadan were planning a reception for you when someone asked which set you belonged to .There has been no answer to that till date and the reception was cancelled. The tales by moonlight on Chigago State University and University of Chiicago are all over the place.

My parents are alive in Osun and by God’s grace I will give them a befitting burial. I will not have to send emissaries to bury them since I have not abandoned “moomi” (that’s how we Oyo people in Osun call mummy) to be calling another woman “maami” in Lagos to fit a life of lie and greed. No Mama HID Awolowo would have told me that she knew all the children of “maami ” and that I was not one of them.

My parents are not rich but I am proud of them because it is from their black pot that my white palp has come out. I say proudly among my University mates today that they could not afford more than N60 per month for me throughout my University days .The story of grass to grace is a proud thing among the Yoruba. MKO Abiola was proud of the story that he ate egg for the first time in his life in the home of Simbiat Abiola’s parents.

With the modest means of my parents, they instilled so much values in me that there is no crime attached to my name in all my years on earth. Forging traveling passports had never appealed to me. Neither has my name been linked to a narcotic ring leading to inquiry and forfeiture of assets. All my life, my hands have provided for me. And they have provided for you too.

I recall when you returned from exile in 1998 and running for governor. You were not “Ezeego” then. You had only the Sunday Adigun house and all the four cars you used then belonged to Mr Ganiyu Solomon. There were a lot of printings being done for you by your friends at The News. I saw the price you were being offered and I told you my press could do it at 40%. I delivered and saved you 60%. I recall Mr Babafemi Ojodu complained openly that they could not do the price I offered you !

That should tell you and your attack dogs that I have always separated the cause I believe in from what I would eat unlike you who always mix the two. You pose as a June 12 hero today but Kola Abiola is alive to tell the story of what happened to MKO’s money as Bashorun is no longer alive. In 20 years, there is hardly any boundary between Lagos treasury and your private pockets. Your “O to ge” moment is coming some day and all the dirty deals will be out.

Like a rapist, you can tell your victims to shout “O to pe” for as long as stolen funds and drug money rule Lagos politics.

I have noticed that because you and your followers have no abiding principle and you are driven by only lust for money, you assume it is so for everybody. Your being glued to the lowest of all spirits (money) makes it difficult for you to make the right judgement about people thinking they are all about money. Was it that you didn’t have money when I told you in December 2006 that it was over between us politically? Have I ever looked in your direction ever? There are men who may not be able to give N10,000 to a cause but if they say they want to see me at 8AM I would be there at 7. Can you summon me with all your bullion vans?

I recall how you said to me in 2006 about Senator Tokunbo Afikuyomi and I quote you “Adiye ni Tokunbo, yin agbado fun a pada” (Tokunbo is a fowl, throw corns and it is U-turn). Has he not turned his back at you today? You don’t have “corns ” again? This was the man who was your fall guy when you made all the forgeries in 1999. He was among the team that went to bury your biological mother in Iragbiji when you could not show your face, has his exit not shown you there are men who place value on principle than money?

I have lived my political life on the basis of the fact that an adversary today can be an ally tomorrow and vice versa. I am not beholden to any person outside the core beliefs we share. One of the men I had an open disagreement with was President Obasanjo and when we reconciled it was an open thing. That differentiates me from you who walk both sides of the streets simultaneously. You were with NADECO and also in bed with Abacha through whom you forged friendship with the Chagourys who are your business partners till date.

The political buffoons around you would hold you out as an anti-third term person today but you know what happened between us on May 2, 2006. We had a meeting at Airport Hotel in Lagos where you were dictating the communique against third term unknown to participants you were at a meeting till wee hours of that morning to work third term in another way.

I was reading the communique to the press when you called me. I gave the phone to the late Rev Tunji Adebiyi but you told him you wanted to speak with me. We didn’t get to talk till late in the night. I had with me in the car as you spoke with me from VGC to Ikeja then President of Egbe Omo Yoruba in North America, Mr Odusanya. Let me quote you verbatim :

“I hope you have not released that communique. We need to manage this third term carefully. Obasanjo is a blind cat. If he causes problem now and they kill one Yoruba graduate in Kano and we kill 200 people selling onions in mile 12 it is not equal. I am therefore proposing that we have a win-win situation. Instead of outright third term we can have the confab recommendation of one six-year tenure starting with the incumbent having 2 extra years and so with we the governors. We can use the two years to empower people like you and handover to one of you. I have asked General Alani Akinrinade to come and I am going to meet Prof Soyinka to discuss it. I want you to think about it”

I told you as a matter of fact that the proposition was unreasonable and there was nothing for me to think about as I would prefer outright third term where we would have elections to automatic two years extension. But my eyes were opened to how unreliable you are that night. Here was a man dictating communique against third term in the morning having this conversation with me at night.

I made up my mind on you that night. The conversation I had with you minutes after Funso Williams was killed and the way you handled your your succession made me to severe political links with you within six months.

FreeStuffsNG:
Nice.
Even though it is the democratic right of HE Fayose but he should please vote for competency over regional politics. Asiwaju Tinubu deserves his vote because he is the best among them.

Asiwaju Tinubu towers over all of them in terms of competency and illustrous records of feats in public service
Please vote for Asiwaju Tinubu.


Asiwaju Tinubu is extremely competent and capable to lead Nigeria to greater heights. He is an excellent experienced public administrator and a Patriot to the core.

Asiwaju Tinubu is a brilliant visionary leader who will keep his promise to take Nigeria to greater heights.

I may need to take you down memory lane of his account of stewardship in public office in case you do not know or trying to ignore the significance of Asiwaju's sterling performance in office as a reason he is being rewarded with support today.

As the Executive Governor of Lagos State, Asiwaju Tinubu recovered what is now called Eko Atlantic from the raging Atlantic ocean Lagos Bar beach coast line flooding (for decades that problem even some of the more developed nations explain away as climate change problems) defied all solutions by FG and the highbrow strategic Victoria Island was deteriorating fast with businesses, embassies, hotels etc exiting VI in droves. During that time, the Atlantic ocean flooding reach the fringes of Ozumba after the flood completely take over Adetokunbo Ademola. Lagos State Government under the brilliant , resourceful and hardworking Asiwaju Tinubu solved that herculean challenge and today, VI is back to its glory.

It was Asiwaju Tinubu that brought back the Lagos Central Business District and Broad street commercial nerve centre of Nigeria back to life after it was abandoned, it's Asiwaju Tinubu who built major roads from Oregun to Lawanson to Igando LASU to as far as Badagry etc.

Asiwaju Tinubu is the one who fixed the horrible waste problem we had in Lagos and that LASTMA and BRT you see was created by Asiwaju. Asiwaju Tinubu was the one who got Lagos State to be part of the owners of Econet and unlike Delta State where the shares were sold and funds pocketed, Lagos State Shares were warehoused with professional investors in the state investment agency called Ibile holdings.

Asiwaju Tinubu increased bursaries to students of Lagos State origin (NULASS) and made public schools free for all Lagosians regardless of your tribe, religion or political party affiliation after his administration had successfully returned missionary schools to their original owners( other states later copied Lagos) . It was during his tenure that Ikeja General Hospital became a teaching Hospital, upgraded most of the clinics to General Hospitals giving free health to the 5 years and below and Lagosians of 65 years and above age group. .

The fund that BRF used to quickly build infrastructures were the LGA funds withheld by Pa Obasanjo and despite that Asiwaju Tinubu never owed salaries.
When the purchase of FG refineries by Alhaji Dangote was cancelled by HE Yardua, Alhaji Aliko Dangote ran to Asiwaju Tinubu after most state governments and governors in the SS gave Dangote a cold shoulder. Today, through the assistance Asiwaju Tinubu gave Aliko Dangote, Dangote Refinery is taking off to help us stop the petrol subsidy killing our naira and public finances.


Asiwaju Tinubu is loyal to those who paid the ultimate price for our democracy and today heroes like Bagauda Kalto, Pa Alfred Rewane, Pa Abraham Adesanya etc are immortalized in Lagos . One of the most memorable achievements of Asiwaju Tinubu for me was helping to stop the blood letting and recurring Hausa-Yoruba/OPC war in Idi Araba and Agege. Those hellish period of unrest defied even the effort of past military state administrators of Lagos but Asiwaju Tinubu was able to solve it.

That Lagos State Government civil service is regarded as the best in Nigeria is due to the hardwork Asiwaju Tinubu did to reform it, created Tutors-Generals offices, improved harmonized pay structure, best pension scheme for civil servants etc.
I can go on and on to educate you on the legacies of Asiwaju Tinubu still standing till today as my reasons for my confidence in Asiwaju Tinubu sir/ma

That's why my appeal goes to you my fellow patriotic Nigerians to please vote for Asiwaju Tinubu.
Please vote for Asiwaju Tinubu.
Here's free book on business ideas & money sources directory for you,it's 100% free! https://www.nairaland.com/6666800/looking-business-ideas-money-fund. Cheers.

Quite obvious you are a Lagosian, but what you credit Tinubu for is 90% lies.

I.e. Apese BarBeach was dredged by the Federal Government not Lagos State, Abacha first did it in sometime mid 1990’ s 96/97 when Tinubu was in exile, Then again in 2009 just before the under 16 FIFA World Cup, The FG dredged it again, then Tinubu with the help of his business partners Roland & Kenneth Chaugory In a PPP, converted part of the land to so called Eko Atlantic their personal property.

Lagos State that I was born & grew up in, was extremely prosperous before Bola Tinubu & extremely prosperous after him, & still prospering.
