When I ask what happens when there's no government.., the answer is either a worse environment or we are not sure.


But I wonder why that cannot be changed if the political parties and the electoral body or commission cannot work together to produce qualified candidates whose qualifications are independent of tribe, religion,gender and financial monstrosity.


Yeah, financial monstrosity in the sense of using money to manipulate till you get the crown.


I think politics only helps to drive the economy never backwards when it's defined as the way in which a government emerges or the way in which a government is retained in the presence of a competition between components of a set of people who have an economy-never-driving-backward plan that can be sustained or retained by successive governments.



The factors to determine the winner:


1.The speed of putting such plan in place.
2.The number of people that understand the plan.



So, the person or group of persons competing with the fastest of practicable plans to put in place as well as having the highest number of people that understand gets to win.


It would be a matter of 'who can figure these things out the fastest?'

It seems you didn't understand my post that you responded to

It's not like i am doubting it happened o. But you got raped the first time and you still went back the second time to be raped again?

That's absolutely the part I don't understand

Even the President is now aligning with Asiwaju mandate.
"Emilokan" on the beat.....

What will the mandate do for nigeria?

socialmediaman:
Lol. Good for them. This is equivalent to your favorite European football club winning UCL. You have nothing to gain except bragging rights but you’re celebrating like you just won the lottery

I will give this your comment A++++. It's so on point. Until Nigerians stop celebrating the same thieves that have stolen their commonwealth, na where we de, we de. Ignorance is a massive problem with many nigerians. Look at women celebrating a man that has stolen the future of their children

registering to get PVC is very good but it doesnt start and end there. the standard that the electorate sets for political aspirants and office holders is so low hence we have all these charlatants parading themselves and using money to buy their way into office. most people vote strictly along religious or ethnic lines and not based on competence. some vote based on financial inducement. others vote based on the fact that they just like the aspirant. many dont judge or scrutinise the credentials of these people. the politicians know this and thats why they are so bold because the electorate are grossly ignorant. so instead of all this, better voter education on the rights of the electorate as citizens of nigeria and how to demand, protect and fight for their rights will go a long way. if the people dont raise their expectations as to what they want from those in government in line with constitutional demands, then getting PVC wouldnt change a thing.

oz4real83:
This is the kind of testimony you hear when you have a good Central bank governor and good economic managers\ministers. Nigeria is not under any sanction like Russia but the country is in a big mess because of clueless leadership at all sectors of the country.

i agree with you absolutely. unfortunately, many nigerians still prefer these clueless leaders. in the space of 3weeks or so, cooking gas has added 100naira per kilo and we have gas being burnt as waste product in the niger delta yet we are celebrating mediocrity

SlavaUkraini:
Pardon my spelling error...

I meant it can be sold to CATER for Ukrainian refugees...

As for the proceeds from the sale of Chelsea Fc, they are still debating on what to do with it.

Baba Abrahamovic had made it clear that he wanted to give the proceeds to charity. He made this known even before the club was Sold.

I am aware of an apartment building in the UK that belongs to a Russian Oligarch that was seized and is now used to house Ukrainian refugees.

It is a massive building that can house nothing less than 100 people.

It is surely a bad season to be a Russian Oligarch that is connected to the Kremlin.

no problem about the spelling. abramovich didnt sell the club. the british govt did. so what abramovich feels the £4.2b should be used for, doesnt count. its what he said he wanted. the british gov isnt under any obligation to do what he said. and if you say that 3months after seizing the club, the british govt are still debating on what to do with the £4.2b proceeds, then what makes you think they will use for ukranian refugees?

Manny21:
Wike ke? O wrong now. Wike is too wild and ambitious to be tamed as a VP. It is a very fatal political error to pick an ambitious VP. Go and ask Obasanjo. Jonathan and Osibanjo managed crisis as VPs because they are naturally humble. I don't see Wike as a cooperative VP.

you made the point i wanted to make. i love your choice of words: "too wild and ambitious". in terms of ambition, he is no different from Tinubu

BESTScientist1:
I'm kinda loving this disrespect to the religious differences in Nigeria by APC.... they'll pay for being foolish. An Oshibajo would have flogged PDP hands down but northerners are far smarter than those so called smart Southerners who foolishly stepped down for Tinubu, mark my words they(APC GUYS) would regret this in many ways

Osinbajo didn't poll as many votes as amaechi. How was he going to flog PDP hands down?

Reality3080:
Hate apart this guy can really make things happen just like we had in Lagos,u can see he’s not quoting figures out of context to impress anyone

I believe this guy will do better cos he has one been tested n he proved it beyond reasonable doubt that he can be trusted

What things can he make happen just like we had in Lagos? What was he tested in and how did he prove that he can be trusted?

RHMSTECH:
That man was able to defeat the following people
1. President
2. Vice President
3. Senate president
4. sitting governors
5. Ministers
6. Party chairman
7. Children of hate

He literally hijacked the party structure from those above.

See ehn, hate in peace but there’s something to learn from him despite your opposition.

What is there to learn? Is Tinubu now a role model?

SlavaUkraini:
Selling it to Carter for Displaced Ukrainian refugees is not a Bad idea...

Can Carter afford it? Is that the same way they sold Chelsea to Carter and used the proceeds for displaced Ukrainian refugees?

donbee:
I rest my case. I don't have the strength to continue this argument.

I didn't argue with you. I only asked some simple questions but you are just going round in circles and avoiding the questions

kingscare1:
Let me start by apologising to him for undermining him, his influence and capacities. I tried to project other aspirants like Osibanjo and Amaechi, I believed that they are better aspirants due to the fact that they are younger, active and technocratic but it take more of those features to win a political election.

The new rule is to focus on winning first by any means possible than any other qualities, at last the winner is all that matters.

Bola Tinubu has proven truly that he is indeed the JAGABAN he is called.

I tried to analyse some of his silent traits that made him unstoppable before and during the just concluded presidential election that he won with a landslide despite being the most controversial, prideful, oldest, ganged-up and unwanted candidate due to his recent outbursts to both the President and his vice, still, won the election. Very heartbreaking from some of us and inspiring at the same time


As we all know that this man Ahmed Bola Tinubu is an extremely wealthy man in all ramifications of life's achievements such as business emperor, political stronghold, family, national leader, King maker, street commander, etc hate him or love him it is what it is.

Now, you can learn from some of his traits that I observed from him especially after winning the just concluded election.

1) Ruggedity: From the way he carries himself as the jagaban of africa, the calibars of people that clears his walking spaces and make up his entourage, how he gets cult-like followership in southwest, honored by day-to-day people on the street of Lagos including the touts of touts, also by respected people from all works of life and even the governor and governors trembles and rush to obey his commands.

Definitely, you cannot underestimate what this man is capable of doing to an individual or group of people.

How did Tinubu become extremely wealthy from your story?

cocolacec:
Ugly old cargo charly go and sleep in your Biafra land.We must banish Osus from Yorubaland.

isnt he telling the truth?

donbee:
Para-military job. So many colleagues and school friends from my previous work place.

did my comment demoralise you? that is why i asked which you havent answered, Is there anything I said that isn't true? "so many people" you know. where you there when they were getting the jobs without connection? which paramilitary job?

now that they have seized the yatch, what will they do with it? just wondring

phemmyjohnson:
You read or heard the speech .. The vp would most likely change the Current disaster of an economy for better

how does his speech make him the best man for the job? where has speech ever made anyone the best man for a job? is the VP not part of the govt that created the current disaster of an economy?

Ingriid:
This man , Tinubu. He is really a fighter, a very big one. I give it to him!

Tinubu may have lots of skeleton in his cupboard, afterall a lot of us do but there is something to really learn from him!
Congratulations City boy!

what are the skeletons in your cupboard?

Samunique:
If you are careful, Tinubu couldn't have been the best man for the job if we're a serious people.

But as a Yoruba man, I will give him my full support.

Affliction shall not rise the second time for another northern Fulani man to rule Nigeria after Buhari.

affliction will not arise a second time for another northern Fulani man to rule Nigeria after Buhari but you will gladly and blindly support tinubu to bring affliction to nigeria because he is a yoruba man and you are yoruba. you are right, nigerians arent a serious people

phemmyjohnson:
Goodbye PYO.. History will Pen down your name as the man who draw the line with whom brought him to political limelight.. Good people face the worst trials ..
Try again later .. You are the best man for the job but you are not the best political aspirant

best man for the job? in what way?

donbee:
Your comment is demoralising. And for your information I got job with fed govt agancy last year without knowing anybody. So many people I know got job without any connection.

did my comment demoralise you? that is why i asked which you havent answered, Is there anything I said that isn't true? what job did you get with a government agency last year without knowing anybody? "so many people" you know. where you there when they were getting the jobs without connection?

Reinaldo:
No. We need him to move forward as a nation.

but he has been giving more motivational speeches since 2015 than moving the nation forward

chatinent:
Tinubu clearly promised to return their ticket money and add more if they support him...plus, the yorubas don't want another Fulani becoming president.


What is more? They know Tinubu will deal with a lot of backstabbers.

Osibanjo will either choose to support him of answer many EFCC calls...as well as Buhari.

Talking about Buhari, he will know no peace. I'm glad he knows how vengeful Tinubu can be.

If that is the personality of Tinubu, then what good awaits Nigerians?

LegendHero:
Mad oooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Imagine a SS'ner being the one to first step down for Tinubu. He instructed all 93 delegates from Akwa-Ibom to vote Asiwaju and that is the highest in the South-South.

God bless Akpabio. God bless Akwa-Ibom people.



Bro respectfully, Akpabio got more projects and success in Akwa-Ibom than Peter Obi in Anambra. I challenge you to dispute this.

If a thief can do that, then I rather he rule us and give us success than a nonentity Obi disguising as a saint.

Would akpabio would have been able to do what you say he did if he was governor of anambra state? If you call akpabio a thief, then what are you talking about? I hear he built a "world class hospital" but when he had an accident, he went abroad. Is that success?

gasparpisciotta:
Jagaban’s speech was enthralling

Buhari wan go shake and hug Tinubu for corner

When did Tinubu lay the foundation for the transformation of lagos

Corporate2020:
They said he is vengeful, yet his political sons and daughters are more than the population of some local governments in the South East because they are all in Lagos holdups selling Gala and La Casera and sleeping under bridges built by Tinubu's boys.

A vengeful political godfather will not have so many sons and daughters in high places.

Check out the real vengeful man, Olusegun Obasanjo, how many of his political sons and daughters can you mention if he even has any?

How have all these his political sons and daughters moved Nigeria forward? Are you one of his political children? Is having political sons and daughters the criteria for being Nigeria's president?

Do you want fulani to continue?

What I want or not want doesn't answer the question: will Tinubu be better than atiku?

If you don't want fulani to continue, is it by voting for Tinubu?

Africans and CLOUT chasing ehn!!


Like I don't get it ; who is supposed to be donating to who?? , a kingdom in Canada to Benin or the reverse.

Abeg somebody should explain to me, so dat I will be calming down ooooh!!!.

It's actually Warri not Benin but you raised very good points which unfortunately many won't appreciate or understand

maasoap:
In democracy, there can't be national success without party success. You have to be loyal to something before you can be given a chance to show patriotism as far as democracy, election and governance are concerned

It seems you didn't understand the question. Do you believe in party success over national success and party loyalty instead of patriotism?

bellotaofeek:
Last last Osinbajo will step down for BAT too. That short pastor can't tackle Atiku. And we can't withstand the era of another Fulani.

Will Tinubu be better than Atiku?
