ImperialYoruba:
I observed many Yorubas are still upset on the roles Asiwaju played on the issue of fulani bandits and their atrocities in Yorubaland. Professor Akintoye leads the Ilana Yoruba, the foremost and formal channel demanding the independence of Yorubaland from Nigeria. Under him are several agitators, most famous is Sunday Adeyemo Igboho. The two continuously maintain that Tinubu is a very qualified Yoruba and Nigerian and wished he could be pro-Yoruba, instead of pro-Nigeria.

Look you can continue your tribalism after 2023 elections. Na God I take beg you.

Look at this post https://www.nairaland.com/7278547/tinubu-new-picture-shock-nigerians#115647789.

Is it fair that a man who has to be supported while walking should be our president? Haba. Let us have mercy on ourselves for once abeg.

What is the meaning of all this for goodness sakes?

Why do they keep holding this man? Is he about to fall?

Maybe they should put him on a wheel chair and wheel him around. I think that will be the best thing to do. Afterall they said Roosevelt ruled America from a wheel chair.

Let them just put baba on a wheel chair and say his leg is not working well, but his brain is functional. That is a lot better and dignifying than holding him like a child who is learning how to walk. This is very disgraceful abeg.

Okoroawusa:
I am voting Bola Ahmed Tinubu come February 2023

You are free to vote a dog for all we care. Have you ever been useful in your life?

Siwel25:
New General Hospitals at Mushin, Shomolu, Ibeju-Lekki and Isheri-Iba etc as well as upgrading of existing health centres to full fledged hospitals at Ijede, Ketu, Agbowa and Agege among others.


Massive roads construction, dualization and modernization across
Lagos State such as Kudirat Abiola road, Oregun; Awolowo road, Ikoyi; Akin Adesola road, Victoria Island, Adeola Odeku road, Victoria Island; Agege Motor road; Ikotun-Igando road; Yaba-Itire-Lawanson-Ojuelegba road; LASU-Iba road, Ojo; Ajah- Badore road, Eti-Osa; Oba Sekumade road, Ikorodu; Adetokunbo Ademola road, Victoria Island and the ongoing expansion and modernization of the Lagos-Epe Expressway as the largest concessioneering project of its size and complexity in Africa among several others.


We do not lie like Obilliwhiskies!

So these roads you mentioned were not in existence before? Ole.

Even the general hospitals were primary health care facilities that were upgraded to general hospitals.

There is nothing bad in upgrading roads and health facilities. But remember, these were done with heavy borrowings.

PO built hospitals, roads and bridges, a university campus, a full fledge secretariat and many more infrastructures from scratch. And refurbished countless existing roads and bridges. Here is the fascinating thing: he did it all without borrowing a dime, while greatly reducing the huge debts his predecessor left for him. At the time he was leaving office, Anambra had the lowest debt profile in Nigeria.

The man is a servant leader, not an emperor like your master Tinubu. Even emperors do work you know. But Nigeria doesn't need an emperor. We need a servant.

Thanks and goodnight.

Nigerian music star, Femi Kuti has denied calling "Obidients", who are simply those campaigning for Labour Party's presidential candidate, Peter Obi, zombies.

Kuti who stated that his words were taken out of context, added that what he meant was he's too angry at his age to be 'obedient' and he does not like the ‘term’.

He further stated that "if Peter Obi wins and actually changes the country better for all of us."

Kuti tweeted;

You are such liars. Of what benefit is it to the people when you take my words out of context like this? I said I’m too angry at my age to be obedient. Expressing I do not like the ‘term’ But if Peter Obi wins and actually changes the country better for all of us.

From the billboard of Taraba, to the Femi Kuti story.

Its quite unfortunate. Could it be that seun osewa is no longer in control of the platform? Why would he allow these guys to make nairaland lose credibility?

Every news on the front page is meant to be authenticated before it is taken there.

Anyiamaka:
I have known the Kutis. This one is very much unlike them. This is prove that age has nothing to do with wisdom and maturity. Like a 60 year old son of Fela could understand and interprete the movement to free Nigeria as Zoombies? Even Seun Kuti barely 30years won't talk this this agbaya

Don't believe all you see in nairaland. Some of the mods are very biased.

Femi Kuti has refuted that statement.

Moh247:




Now I know ignorance is part of what is fueling the hate against Tinubu by Ipob and indomie generation

If you have ever followed Tinubu's campaign since 1993, his radio broadcast during the struggle for Democracy on Radio Kudi, his many Campaigns and his 13 editions of Bola Ahmed Tinubu Colloquium you won't say this

Many indomie generation never knew he was a radical radio presenter like Nnamdi Kanu giving Abacha gbas gbos

Infact if you want to laugh go and watch Tinubu's old campaign video and interviews on YouTube.. You go know why they call him bobo Chicago

.

Moh, Tinubu of today is a shadow of Tinubu in his prime. Tinubu is an elite Yoruba for goodness sakes. That he is a smart guy should naturally be taken for granted. It is jagaban we are talking about here. Anyone who says he isn't originally sound either never knew him or is just being stupid.

Having said that, I would like you to go and watch his speeches and movement during the campaigns of 2015 and watch him today. The man has deteriorated real bad. And its going to get worse. People don't get better when they have afflictions that are age related, they get worse.

That's the issue here. A Tinubu of 1999 all the way to 2015 would debate competitively with anyone in Nigeria's political space. But the Tinubu of today, i'm sorry he can't.

Doesn't it amaze you that BAT hasn't granted any interview this season. Bro...

Modphase:
But your entire pathetic tribe is no slave to Kalu Orji or Theodore Orji that looted the destined of your unwise foolish Igbo fathers for good 8 years taking security vite to tune of N100 million monthly then pass you to his house houseboy to continue looting your foolish sould while his son is the house leader in the state assembly while he retire in the stone. Do you now see why is aid every Igbo that complain about Tinubu deserve to be stoned to death along with every member of his or her family for not removing the pecks in your own eye but want to remove that of Lagos that if it sto developing as it is today no Igbo land can catch up in the next 3 million years. You de mad with you reasoning I swear

I have enough dignity not to support the rogues you mentioned up there. OUK, Orji and the rest of them are rogues and common thieves. But in your life, if dem born you well, call Tinubu thief.

You fit? You fit? You fitn't. Willing slaves don't see any wrong in the acts of their masters.

You really need to go to UNN.

Siwel25:
U will toil for nothing if Tinubu performed as Governor. If Tinubu built 350 roads as Governor, your generations will be denied their due credit after working hard. If Tinubu built 5 General Hospitals, u will retire and not get your entitlements. Its time to curse mischievous people like u!

Name 20 of the 350 roads, and the general hospitals. Yeye.

Modphase:
Look at this foolish soul !
What is the difference btw Ikpeazu Ugwuayi Peter Obi Abaribe Kalu Orji Theodore Orji etc are they not same looters that looted the destinies of foolish igbos n your unborn generation either into Pandora or accounts abroad. Do they all have nothing tangible to show after 8 years of failures as governors n senators. You de mad.

You are not celebrating them but you can sens them to the senate. E be like say u are born mad.

I understand that you have made yourself a permanent slave to Tinubu, his son who is your junior, his daughter who is your mate and his wife; and have sold your right to reasonability.

I will suggest you enroll for a program on humanities at the University of Nigeria Nsukka whenever they call of the strike brought upon us by your master's inept political goons. Each day, when you go in and out of the campus gate, you will see this motto of the school largely written above the school's main gate: "To Restore the Dignity of Man". You will need to see that daily. Hopefully, you may be able to come to your senses that you are a free born and not a slave.

Great.

Truthisunique2:
obi has become a joke bro

He came by himself to talk to empty seats

The joke is on you man.

Truthisunique2:
dunamis na church members obi came to meet them there, Dem shout for guest no mean they are voting him

Nasarrawa there was no 1million match, just 2k people

This one, all the participants came outside to welcome obi but if you look inside the hall where Doyin okupe etc are seated the people are few and hall half empty

The bolded actually got me rolling on the floor.

People can console themselves.

dollynnn:
A tale of two old fools

Not quite.

One is 30 the other is 62.

TheNiceGuy:
Yes, Anambra allocation was much more than that of Osun.

This must be a joke.

https://www.nairaland.com/6740113/internally-generated-revenue-compared-federal.

There has never been a time anambra allocation was more that that of Osun, (except after deductions from source due to the level of indebtedness aregbe put the state into). Never. If you have evidence for any please provide.

Osun has always had allocation slightly higher than anambra.

In terms of debt, i don't know where you got your figures from. But have a look at this and compare Anambra Osun and Lagos. This was a few months before Obi left office.

https://www.nairaland.com/2018027/graphic-image-domestic-debt-profile

Dan Ulasi said Obi didn't leave money for the state? These official documents prove otherwise:
https://www.nairaland.com/7266643/banks-statement-anambra-state-treasur.

Listen to Obiano's aide on the matter. He disputed figures but couldn't dispute the fact that PO left a very robust treasury for them to hit the ground running.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hZgCfRmcpKQ


On poverty rate, you can check this

http://databod.com/nigeria-poverty-rate/

https://www.nairaland.com/2418994/ranking-nigerian-states-poverty-rates

When you consider Osun's debt profile, you will realize that the rating they have on low poverty is a joke. You can't be heavily indebted beyond your income level and claim not to be a pauper.

See bros, these things above have already revealed that your points are filled with fallacies. So claiming all those unverifiable achievements for aregbe may very well be fallacies like the very popular Osun Airport.

Listen and listen good, you may very well not like PO, but no governor comes close to him in terms of comprehensive governance, dedication to duty and servant leadership.

Don't sacrifice an exemplary leader on the alter of your hatred or envy. It is demonic, and anyone who does demonic things attracts demons to himself and family. I am not kidding.

aribisala0:
DaveDGreat
No the reall point of note is that this is such a RARE OCCURENCE like SNOW in KANO that it has to be NEWS

Is this news in the SW? Not at all but from the SE it is news because everyone knows how clannish they are

It is NEWS!!! Very very unusual from a place where the UMUNNA mentality is so prevalent they even sack Eboes from other states

Guy it is not the fault of the igbos that Yoruba's chose not to compete outside Yorubaland. Na una choice be that.

Sacking igbos from other states? You must be joking.

TheNiceGuy:
It's obvious you know NOTHING.

Chinese are mining gold, under what/Whose capacity?

I want you to respond.

I repeat: Chinese are in Osun today mining gold. If you don't know ask questions. They are mining it with the consent of the governor and the obas without the "knowledge" of the federal government. They have been doing it for a while.

The chinese buy lands, destroy the lands in search of gold, get the golds and ship it to their country. It is booming. The police force provide the chinese with security. Go and verify.

Meanwhile the citizens wallow in poverty. And na the so called tinubu egg heads dey there all this while.

TheNiceGuy:
It's obvious you know NOTHING.

What do you expect of a State with that meager amount from Federal allocation compared to his achievements in the State.

How was Osun before and after he left? Was Osun the dream of the everyone prior to his tenure?

Once again, you know NOTHING

Was PO getting more allocation than aregbesola? Yet PO built and refurbished over 800km of roads, built a university campus, a teaching hospital, a full government secretariat, turned around education in the state (Anambra State Uni is in session at the moment because of what PO did), made the state the least indebted in Nigeria even though he inherited huge debts, and left billions in the state coffers. Enough for Obiano to build an international airport amongst other things.

Are you kidding me? Please stop the insult. PO has no mate in comprehensive governance in Nigeria at the moment. Don't ever compare him to Aregbesola or any governor at that in this 4th republic don't. It is an insult.

You don't like him? It is your choice. But do not murder exemplary leadership on the slab of tribal sentiments.

TheNiceGuy:
Crude m@dness.

Aregbesola mediocre

Your oveehyped Obi didn't near him in achievements or isn't Obi that couldn't add to the IGR of Anambra for complete 8 years?

Crude m@dness

Mediocre was a word I chose to use out of respect for ogbeni because i like his person. Truth is that he was a useless governor. Someone who left Osun state almost insolvent that at a point, the state got almost nothing from FAAC. Do you know that chinese are in Osun mining gold, and the citizens of the state are wallowing in poverty?


Wetin you sabi. Abeg commot.

Eniitankorede:
I can’t discuss with a blind-to-truth person. If you can’t see all of Tinubu’s mentees you must be blind to truth.

Counter what i said with facts. Who are the mentees? What did they achieve outside Lagos? Infact the more you guys call them mentees the more they damage Tinubu's image.

Faleke too is a mentee, what has he done for his constituents? What bill has he ever proposed in the reps? Yayi too is a mentee. Ashafa is also one. What have they done.

Show me one of the so called Tinubu mentees that has performed outside Lagos. Even the mighty fashola of lagos became a lame duck in abuja.

Can you compare fashola and amaechi as ministers in buhari's government? Can you compare fashola as power minister to Barth nnaji as power minister?

Answer me. Give me answers no BS.

Modphase:
How many of your foolish igbos have Tinubu denied n why the you miserable pathetic soul hate him for nothing while you celebrate collosus failures like Ikpeazu Ugwuayi Peter Peter Obi Kalu Orji Theodore Orji Abaribe etc

You sound like someone who is foaming in the mouth or brain.

Firstly, I don't hate Tinubu. I just don't like his brand of politics, and I don't want him to be my president for a lot of valid reasons I honestly don't think you can grasp, because your emotions have successfully suspended your ability to be reasonable.

Secondly, I will like you to provide one thread on NL where you have seen igbos celebrating the failures you mentioned up there save for PO and Abaribe?

rusher14:
There is a place called Umulokpa in Enugu State, right next to Nsukka.

When we were reaching such hamlets you were probably a zygote.

I am from nsukka and schooled in nsukka. There are many yorubas on campus doing well.

Your point exactly?

Eniitankorede:
Tinubu is not Buhari. APC is different from individuals. Get your thinking cap on. PDP did worse. Tinubu has changed Lagos. He can change NIGERIA.

He has changed Lagos how? Tell us how Lagos was in 1998, and how it was in 2007 when Tinubu left office. And i know you will say he brought fashola and the rest. Truth is that anybody will do relatively well as Lagos governor. It has nothing to do with Tinubu's ability to select the best hands. It is a Lagos thing.

Fashola did well as Lagos state governor, but he is a useless minister today.

Aregbesola did well while working with tinubu in Lagos, but was a mediocre governor in Osun. Oyetola was handpicked by Tinubu, the so called specialist in selecting the best brains. How is Osun under the watch of Oyetola. Same thing with Ekiti, Ogun and Ondo.

Which of Tinubu's so called mentees is a performer today? Gbajabiamila is a complete rubber stamp, he can't lace the shoes of dogora his predecessor. Is it Yayi? Who exactly has tinubu raised that performed outside Lagos?

Una go just open mouth they talk BS.

FatherOfJesus:
People are plying the road freely without tolls and no one has died.because of that. Lekki-Ajau express that is tolled today doesn't even have this quality.
It was built by Peter Obi and since then the road is still standing solid.

Only Oworosonki/Apapa road comes close to this in entire Lagos and it wasn't built by Lagos State government.

Tinubu in his entire political career but as senator and govenror cannot boast of 100km roads combinely constructed or a single flyover and people want us to believe that he built Lagos

It appears a lot of people supporting BAT did not know him when he was governor of Lagos. Tinubu did nothing on Lagos infrastructure, absolutely nothing. Nothing.

All of a sudden, he is the best governor ever. How?

They say he increased the igr of Lagos. The question should be how did he do it? Did he create an environment for business to thrive? The answer is no. The man only spread the tax net in an already booming economy. That isn't genius for Christ's sake. It was opportunistic. And he did it mainly for selfish reasons. The military wasn't interested in taxing Nigerians. If not, Marwa would have done exactly what tinubu did.

BATists should cut the crap. It was fashola that really worked in lagos, then Ambo. Sanwo-eko is a full time employee of Tinubu. e no get single mouth.

CoronaVirusRelo:




Post election will be very interesting Nairaland!


Reality will hit many when His Excellence, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, is sworn in as the President of Nigeria!


The major problem of Nigeria is that, people always ignore reality and hope for the impossible out of PERSONAL emotions!

Hello! PETER CAN NEVER BE PRESIDENT!

Its a mirage that will never materialize!

Just like the writer said, you are dumb.

rusher14:
They found the only man in millions.


Na wa o!

Point of note is that no one has denied him of his benefits and rights as a yoruba civil servant in the south east which is what those of you who have never left yorubaland want everyone else to believe.

In 27 years he has risen through the ranks and gotten to the top of his career in the so called south east where non indigenes are not allowed to thrive.

proff010:
Is that the best answer you can give.
Jagaban we want.
Wait for campaign proper you all will relocate last last

For some strange reasons the likes for pro tinubu posts on nairaland is very minimal at night. But during the day, it rises significantly.

Are some people employed by BAT to like posts? Perhaps they close at 5pm.

Penguin2 i dont know if you have noticed it.

Yampotatocarrot:
Is the governor really owing salary or the priest just dey catch cruise?

Although, I'll rather believe the priest than the governor

Has the governors finished with his primary duty as governor?

The bishop is simply telling him to channel the funds to government work, whether it is paying salaries or developing infrastructure, rather than coming to donate it to the church to score cheap political points.

FreeStuffsNG:
This settles it.


Once again, politics of lies, bigotry and hate l'ule.
Check my signature for freebies and free stuffs!

How you were able to declare victory for Tinubu after seeing the top 10 states beats me.

The only states in that list that Tinubu would get significant votes from are Lagos (if care is not taken, he will lose it to PO), Oyo, Kano (on the condition that kwankwaso supports him, otherwise, nothing), Katsina, and Kaduna (votes here will be split into almost 4 equal parts). In all other states there he isn't getting anything significant. If you think other wise, its up to you.

Does BAT have a good chance to be president? the answer is yes. But so does PO and Atiku.

Buckeyemedia1:
Waste of votes, it is better in the box of pdp, this Mumu Peter Obi I want to be President, will only act as a spoiler in aiding & abetting APC to retain power.

That is for you to worry about not Enugu people.

Next time, no political party will say the igbos are irrelevant which is exactly what PDP implied by not zoning their ticket to the SE.

Gaddafih001:
I am OBEDIENT but forget Edoga.
He is a direct cousin of Gburugburu the governor and Gburus put him in Labour Party to continue his rape of Ndi Enugu’s treasury.

I agree he is very close to ugwuanyi, but every governor in enugu state has been his own boss not answerable to anyone else.

Chima did not answer to Jim, Sullivan did not answer to Chima, and Gburus did not answer to Sullivan. I do not see how and why Chijioke will answer to ugwuanyi. They are the same set, the set of 99. Why should he be subservient to him?

I cannot confidently say the same about Peter Mbah because Chimaroke would try his best to ensure that what happened with him and sullivan will not repeat itself with Mbah. So he will do everything humanly possible to ensure that Mbah remains loyal to him. If he achieves it, then we have another Bola Tinubu in Enugu state.

Every well meaning son and daughter of Enugu must resist ebeano in 2023, not because of Mbah but because of chimaroke.

How many supporters does chimaroke Nnamani have?

Except they deploy thugs with guns to all polling units in Enugu state during the elections so as to scuttle voting, Chijioke Edoga is the next governor of Enugu state, while PO will take 90% of the votes there.
