PoliticsRe: 2019: Kwankwaso Meets Obasanjo For Consultation (Photos) by casualobserver1: 1:02am On Aug 15, 2018

Pound for pound
Delegate for delegate
Free and fair primaries, this guy will beat Atiku and co. But I am sure Wike won't allow it.
But Bubu will crush him because I cannot see how south will vote for another 8 years for the north. Just cannot see it happen.
He chanced Atiku in 2015. Atiku will rig Kwankwaso out because Wike knows Kwankwaso sees him as a small boy.

If Kwankwaso should enter, Wike will not finance election for anybody.

The price of impatience. All he had to do was wait for his turn in 2007 but he preferred to rock the boat with blind ambition in 2003. Pathetic that 16 years later he is still on the matter.
Life can be so funny. Atiku did the opposite and is still in the same position. Let us all be praying because so many things are involve.

What kind of analysis are you making
Have u forgotten that during the last Local Government Election kwarans were not Happy with APC not Saraki. So stop making unnecessary analysis.
Oga. While Kwarans don't really believe in APC again, they don't want anything Saraki at all. It is only some Ilorin people that still support him to the last. Even Maigidas people are not ready to back Saraki politics again.

Please ask people on ground in Kwara.

Offa people waiting quietly for this guy. Over calculation is not good. Even if you want to rule the whole state you should be doing something. Saraki politics of control everything and pack everything is no more credible. No road for that guy again o.

He should have used Tinubu method of 60/40. Ilorin is supposed to be a major city by now but since then Saraki took over, nothing nothing.

Ilorin is even benefitting small. Some people in Ilorin will say that at least they have ShopRite. What of them Baruten? Oro? Ifelodun? If them Belgore guys or even Gov.Lawal son is wise, now is the time to join APC and face house of reps.

henchamb:
Let's not forget that saraki lost his Ward and local govt in the last Kwara LG election. No rigging machine will save him this time
This is the calculation that is making Offa people so happy now. To finish Saraki finally, Buhari just needs to allow free and fair election in Kwara while checkmating Saraki rigging machine.

Kwara North and Kwara South will reject him and he will lose many seats in House of Assembly and some House of Reps seat. The Kwara South Senate seat might even be lost to Saraki club.

The problem with these people decamping up and down is that Buhari is not Jonathan. Buhari while he personally doesn't want to use federal power, will end up using it due to the influence of people like Dambazau and Babagana Kingibe who are die-hard northern supremacist politicians.

Saraki is taking huge risk now. If Buhari administration dedicate federal power to checkmate him in Kwara, his rigging machine which has become so weak will fall apart.

He's just using each of the political parties as ladders to climb higher in the political space.
His target is 2023, he knows 2019 is not feasible for him.
My uncle said this but I was too shocked. He has been saying that Saraki will go out for 2023, but use sense to get Yoruba votes as a Yoruba man, while still claiming north to get Hausa votes. I don't think it can work. It is too tough for him to pull off. Or can it really work?

But isn't Atiku the only one that can find election for now inside PDP? I doubt Wike, Udom, Okowa or Dickson will sponsor it for anybody for now.

TravelRe: Abeokuta Railway: FG Relocates Abeokuta Train Station Again by casualobserver1: 11:49am On Jul 19, 2018
Lorddee:
No! The new site is on the same route of the rail project no unnecessary diversion or demolition of any pillar or already constructed slabs.

They have just move the station 6km from the original planned position in Abeokuta, it's like moving a bus stop from your street junction to three streets after yours because there is a U-Turn, or Transformer or any structure that might be too difficult to remove by your junction, and decision to construct the station at a new location is very positive. it will save cost, since no compensation will paid because non of the 2000 buildings will be demolished , it will take development to the new site, value of properties around will increase, business will boom around, etc.

The only ill will be that commuters will have to take an extra shuttle into Abeokuta city center.

No additional loan from the Chinese, since no more building to be demolished, and this will free up a lot of monies budgeted for compensation.
I know it is on the same rail route- after all, you can only construct train station where the railway passes. My own point is that the original site of the station was a better choice due to it being in the city proper.

What you said about taking development to the new site being good is what I was talking about when I discussed improving the feasibility study of the new city he is building.

What I am saying is that this move helps Amosun kill 2 birds with one stone. By doing this, he saves money on compensation. He also increases the cash flow projections for the new site.

It is those increased cash flow projections that he can use to take more loan for the new site project, because the project is classified as being more feasible and banks will be more willing to lend cash.

AutoReportNG:
But are we to blame the engineers or the FG who is not proactive on time? Imagine if they had come earlier, the millions that is about to be demolished would be been stopped.

Its well with Nigeria.
I think that that original site made some sense due to being inside Abeokuta proper, but Amosun was not ready to start demolishing houses due to election.

That original site could have been cleared and turned into a logistics hub, but since Amosun has decided to build a new city her decided to move the whole thing to that city to avoid demolition and to upgrade the city.

The feasibility study of that new city he is building has been suspect for a while so the new plan was to use the main train station to upgrade it. That way he can collect loans based on projected revenue and retire quietly.

They are moving things around anyhow because the road is being built under loan so the Chinese will just add more to the loan balance.

Akdamsthe47 I got your email. I replied but it was bounced, I guess your email address caused that.

Anyway, do you want me to do anything for you?
I disagree with you Sir.

I suggest you check the works of Dr. Ha-joon Chang, particularly "Kicking Away the Ladder". No country has ever successfully industrialized without protectionist policies, and free trade policies only help rich countries get richer and poor countries get poorer as capital flows from poor to rich countries.

It destroyed US Economy but not US Businessmen. The biggest players made billions, but the American workers suffered and are still suffering.

The economy is different from the business tycoons. The business tycoons don't care about country or anything. Just the money, and they can make the money anywhere in the world.

dyydxx flye



That is what OfficialAPCNig don't understand.


I believe in fair trade and not free trade.

In fair trade, a country protects her local industries as well as allow a controlled inflow of foreign goods in order to meet quantity demanded without destroying local industries.

Jobs that pays well first.

Cheaper products second.



That is the priority that is helping Switzerland.
Fair Trade is against the interest of the multinational companies that push for free trade. They will bribe anybody bribeable to increase free trade and destroy the working class worldwide.

You still don't get it. The cost of production in Nigeria is very high and if we sign this trade pact, EU companies will set up shop in Morroco and flood us from there with there products getting here tarriff- free, which would be cheaper than our own local products....There is no hope for competitive Nigerian businesses especially manufacturing companies to cope.

The south-Africa that he is talking about haven't signed it too to avoid there economy being a dumping ground. This is a mistake
Finally somebody sees the bigger picture. With this agreement, Nigeria's dying manufacturing sector is finished. Any attempt to set up small industry here is doomed to destruction because EU, US and Chinese companies will simply move to smaller African countries, sign tax holiday agreement and move the goods here to Nigeria without any fees.

Watch as all those industies in the East die. I pity any Aba manufacturer now. Agbara Industrial Estate and Sagamu will empty out as all companies relocate to Togo, Benin and Ghana.

The autocratic governments of Cameroon, Gabon, and Togo will become the new Meccas as those ones will gladly sign tax holiday agreement for years at a time.

Honestly Amosun has become so hardened and wicked this second term. Because OGD almost removed him after he worked during first term, he just decided to bone everybody.

This man seems unserious.why is it that Nigerian politicians always blame Israel for any homemade crisis. That was how OBJ woke up and said that Jonathan has 1000 Israeli-trained snipers that he was going to use during election.

If this man is so sure of what he is saying why not post the letters in Wikileaks or release it online instead of grandstanding?

His people are being killed by Buhari-supported herdsmen and because shame is catching him for keeping quiet, his only answer is to wake up and start spreading conspiracy theories around.

Notice he called Israel. He will never call Sudan where so many of these Fulani guys are trained because Sudan is a Muslim country.

Bro, this part is something. His death was by a diabolical means.
Story. he is just saying that to make waves. What they actually do is put a hidden pin in the chair they invite you to sit in.

The pin contains a poison with an onset of a few hours. If they are not happy with what you said they will not admisister the antidote and you die. If they decide to allow you, they will simply administer antidote to you and you survive it even though you will be down for some days.

All this talk of spirituality is just a cover. All intelligence agencies have such substances that they use. The CIA themselves opened up and during a US Senate briefing they said they have weapons that trigger catastrophic heart attacks that are undetectable unless you are specially looking for it.

The whole write up doesn't have head or tail. The fact is that a bunch of poorly educated military men got lucky and took over a country because the population was too politically immature to chase them away.

They continue to talk as if they are gods, but they are not that special. They simply we're the ones with guns when Nigeria started falling apart and the then politicians we're not bold enough to tell them to get out.

After the first coup in 1966, the civilians decided to be stupid and handed over power to Aguiyi Ironsi. That is what emboldened these guys to spoil the whole country.

The fact that they promote themselves and make themselves Generals does not make them superhuman. They were nothing but immature buffons that got lucky.

They will fade away and nothing with happen.
