nihilistjnr: My personal opinion is that both of them answered this badly. Terribly even.
Tinubu was too busy puffing his chest and self-fellating in his answer, and he was full-flow into chanting his own oriki by the time he got to talking about taming the Atlantic Ocean. He really reminded me of the main politician from King of Boys. He was taking credit for achievements that occurred outside of his tenure as Governor as well
Believe it or not, I think Obi actually started answering the question on the right footing, except that he was stammering a lot. He lost it when he started calling stupIId numbers about Bangladesh, stuttering and stammering as he did so. The stuttering that made it difficult to follow the numbers he was calling out was bad enough, but using Bangladesh as an example for Nigeria to follow simply asinine in my opinion given that the Bangladeshi economy is currently on the brink of collapse.
Both of the guys' excessive focus on numbers in their answers emphasised their leanings towards aggressive capitalism, in a country that is crying out for socialist reform - starting primarily with Federal Restructuring.
In my opinion, telling us about how you would boost IGR x 1 billion is only a way of campaigning on a platform of trickle down economics to an electorate that don't even understand the concept in the first place. When you then consider how tiny the circle of capital providers are in Nigeria, and that both of these men have a history diverting public capital into their own enterprises, then you realise that they fully intend to be part of the apex from which the funds are suppose to trickle down...except trickle down economic theory is a scam anyway.
Nigeria needs a president that is literally willing and actively working to weaken the role of the president significantly. This concept ironically is logically at odds with the self-ambition and messianic complex required to run for president in the first instance.
And so, I fully expect another sob story and tales of integrity by yet another contender in 2027.
Says it all!!! If e didn't divert, e didn't divert. If e divert, e divert. No need for shalayes!!! No Saint anywhere!!
Donjazet2: BAT would be worst than buhari.. Just like Buhari, bat has refused to engage other candidates in a debate. bAT has granted just the one interview which as it turns out was carried out by a member of a family very loyal to him in a controlled environment who essentially used a prestigious platform like BBC to launder his image.
After Nigerians barely hearing from buhari, do you think bAT is the one who will listen to Nigerians? A mini dictator already?
Emaprince: Like say you no know how Nigerians behaves? Is not naija guys that will be on social media asking celebrities to show love? Dem no dey old for some kind things.
But the guy can argue that he just wants to get closer to his dad as he has no familly and also bereft of fatherly love..even though we know say he wan hammer. But guy reason am...if sanwo olu accepts the guy, the bro don hammer be that o. Allow him to hustle for his dad jare
And like blueraydick said...I also suspected that the lawyer wanted to hammer from the case. Thats why he picked it. Lol
I agree, but I can tell you for free say Sanwoolu no go ever connect with that guy.
Ibime: Life no straightforward like that. A nigga with paternity question will always want to know even till he turns 80
Come to talk of if money dey involved
For a 27yr old to dey blackmail him papa for public because of money, that tells me one thing...the guy lacks character. There's no way Sanwoolu go allow such person to enter him circle even if na legitimate child.
afrodoc2: Diggz here is the Pele clip regarding his record against European teams. He was as prolific if not more prolific against them. And what many ignorant indomie generation and tiktok generation who are too lazy to carry out adequate research do not know is that back then if you played outside Brazil (and most other countries) you could not play for the national team. This is why Pele's teammate in the 1958 World Cup Jose Altafini, played for Brazil in the 1958 tournament but after his move abroad to AC Milan he had to switch to Italy for the 1962 World Cup as an oriundi.
Furthermore, the Brazilian government actively blocked Pele from playing abroad in his prime by naming him a national treasure. Despite this he consistently rodded European teams whenever and wherever he met them. 11 World Cup goals in 11 World Cup matches against European teams is no joke, and most of those goals came in the knockout stages.
P.S If you look closely you will see Pele dealing with Franz Beckenbauer the same way Messi dealt with Boateng.
Donjazet2: I didn't even have to look far. Honestly why are these tinubu supporters usually people obsessed with tribal issues and affairs? I can't wrap my head around it.
Can you explain why you intentionally excluded this link below from your screenshot?
BlueRayDick: Bros me and u know, This guy just wants to cashout, no be any child support he want. He just want a slice of whatever his biological father must have amass over the years
I agree, child support or cash out na the same thing in this case.
He probably sees it as his right.
NA 27year old man him be, not under 18. For him age him suppose don graduate from university dey hustle normally or him get handwork wey him dey use hustle. If him never sort anyone out, and na him supposed governor papa him dey wait for, then he truly deserves the treatment wey him dey get now even if sanwoolu naim him papa. And he deserves not even a penny. Him dey waste him time to be honest because one naira wey wash no go reach him hand.
BlueRayDick: The guy say he don reach out to Sawoolu before now and baba no send am, so I'm guessing some lawyer who wants to hammer advised him to go through the court. What I don't understand is why a lawyer will advise u to sue someone u know already has immunity against any form of lawsuit; shey no be waste of time and resources ?
Perhaps the lawyer's intention is to make it a media trial such that Sawoolu will be embarrased and just call the boy aside and find him something along with his lawyer.
If na by resemble you know how many unknown brothers and sisters you go potentially get out there?
A man of 27years no suppose dey still pursue child support upandan na. If him don survive without him dad till 27yrs of age then him obviously no need the dad, if the dad no want am. He should sort himself out and face him front, not be chasing unverified papa wey no send am.
raumdeuter: With those movements the sanctification process was ongoing
Azzzzin... As soon as you say you be obidient automatically you become a Saint.
Dan Ulasi even confirm again say PO dey call Atiku friend, mentor, unifier etc. Shey PO no know say him mentor and friend na thiefing thieve ni?
Naim make all this over selling the guy dey annoy me. Let's even assume say he becomes the President tomorrow, na how him wan use control all him thieving thieves of friends from both APC and PDP wey join am for LP?
Ordinary small campaign funds don already open some yansh, then imagine say na treasury Naim those ones dey deal with. Naaaah....
And like the Osun gubernatorial LP candidate, Ken has also moved round from APC, PDP and LP
And like their presidential candidate as well, PO has moved round from APGA, PDP, APC (lol) and LP. The same people that keeps moving upandan from one party to another are now the supposed saviours na that one naim dey vex me pass. Just vote PO/LP if you wan vote am, no come dey over sell am like say na new bride wey be virgin for this streets.
Donjazet2: So in other words, you accept that my path is actually the best path?
I told you this thing 2years ago. You only joined a party this year. You being interested in politics and joining a party is a start. Anything else I no sabi.
I look at advanced democracies and I wish Nigeria's to be like that.
For instance, if you are in the US, it's almost like a civic responsibility that you are actively involved in the democratic process.
You join a party that aligns with your ideals and vision for the party. You register with that party, you partake in the primary process. Unlike what we have here where our primaries were determined by the same corrupt elite, where party form is even out of reach to the average person. There it is the average person that votes to select who will represent the party, you don't just stop there, you volunteer your time and resources in canvassing for the candidate who you support. In many advanced democracies, politics is not a means to an end like we have here, where the motivation is to earn money, politics is transient for a lot of them, one where once you serve finish, you return to private life or your career.
So in summary, yes, I joined a party for the first time to be part of the movement that changes the country. All of us have to learn that politics shouldn't be a thing for the elite class alone. Satisfactory?
Donjazet2: Yes, true. But not just him. I look at advanced democracies and I wish Nigeria's to be like that.

Excellent! We've made progress from 2 years ago, so no need for long talk again. By December 2026, I will mention you here to ask hafa by the grace of God.
Donjazet2: Diggz, to address your point on Nigerians not maintaining interest post 2023, what makes you say that? I've had political interest for years now and it's only grown in leaps and bounds, what makes you think that will subside?? The fact is that we are all united in our belief of a better country. Politics is the only vehicle to achieve that so I don't buy tge narrative that people will become disinterested in the process.
Good! You should be able to answer my question below.
Are you a card carrying member of any party in Nigeria today, and when did you become one?
Donjazet2: Sorry this is partly a non answer,I see the famous attempt to paint all three with the same brush. Sorry I don't buy that one bit.
Diggz no one is saying obi is saint or is perfect and without flaws, we are saying that next to tinubu and atiku, his white dey shine wella. For Christ sake, tinubu cannot divulge HIS OWN biography. No one can give a comprehensive detail at to the man's first 35 years on earth. Not to talk of his candidacy that screams entitlement mentality and not humble leadership..
So one thing is certain, good faith Nigerians cannot turn to tinubu and the APC to solve the problems they've been unable to solve and the one's they've created.
And I've always said it clearly, an Obi presidency offers the best path forward, in terms of strengthening our democracy, in terms of the electorate psychological orientation, the fact that everyone will know that their votes count which will inevitably lead to better accountability from the leaders.
I've said it Soo numerously. So I ask you personally again diggz, what role can Nigerians play in seeing Nigeria get better?
Bro leave all this your plenty messages wey you dey type. Are you a card carrying member of any party in Nigeria today, and when did you become one?
Donjazet2: Egbon diggz, I asked you yesterday and you didn't answer, what will you have Nigerians do??
Nigerians should vote for whoever their heart desires without proclaiming anyone a Saint because all politicians are one and the same. Check well, politicians align for their personal interest, put their personal interest first and the rest na Jara. No Saint inside politics.
You are personally invested in consistently knocking down the obi movement but you haven't proposed a practical and viable pathway for Nigeria's problems.
Yes, I am personally invested in knocking any narrative that portrays him or any Nigerian politician as a Saint or the messiah that's coming to solve Nigeria's problem overnight. We've seen that movie play out in Nigeria history over and over again.
What do you think is the best course of action the average masses can undertake to stem the bleed?
Unfortunately, you lots are only interested in politics once in every four years period, so nothing is ever going to change in my opinion. Take you for example the next time we go see you and your passion for Nija politics na in 2027, so how things suppose change?
AnfieldFan: Had nothing to do with being greedy(I'm talking specifically about Wizkid's contract now), it was a standard label deal, the only dodgy part could be Wizkid's then manager taking 25% of his earnings or something like that, can't remember too well.. Wizzy and Banky are still good today...
OK, I didn't realise you've turned into Blueray bro. In my post, I was referring to BankyW as a person, and not Wiz contract issues/situation with him. To be honest, everything i've heard about that guy says he is a greedy man. I no sabi anything about Wiz contract.
They are still good today that's why Wiz avoids the guy like a plague. Ordinary wedding Wiz no gree go, him rather dey fcvk him aunty mates upandan.
