Politics › Re: Not A Fan Of Tinubu, But On This, I Support Him by DoTheNeedful: 4:19pm On Jun 21, 2023
TokunboCarsOnly:
I am not a fan of President Tinubu, and I am not sure I will ever be, but on the recent development especially his sacking of some persons and appointment of others especially people from his region I support him on this.

Buhari set a very dangerous path as president. He will go down in Nigeria presidential history as the man who introduced, enthroned and established political nepotism. Buhari disregarded federal character, he didn't give a damn about the outcry that followed his lopsided appointments. Everywhere was Fulani that most Nigerians thought he wanted to fulanize Nigeria.

From security agencies, to state house staff, custom and immigration, airports and seaports, anti graft agencies and NNPC. Even CBN leadership was not speared in his evil appointments. It was clear Buhari wanted to set Nigeria on fire if not for public restraints. A few reasonable Northerners called his attention to such injustice but the emperor Buhari never listened.

He forget that life is turn by turn. He forgot that what goes around they say, will come around. He succeed in enthroning nepotism and after eight years he bowed out, today he is in Daura and he feels no remorse about his actions. If wishes were horses, Buhari would have still held sway over his appointees from his Daura home. Unfortunately, wishes are not horses. A new sheriff is in town and interestingly, the new sheriff was properly taught by Buhari how to run a tribal presidency, he is now reciprocating the same footsteps and it appears some Northerners are already feeling uncomfortable. Infact, recently, someone said to me that the way Tinubu is removing Northerners, that he may have issue with Northern cabals and I said cabals my foot. Where were the cabals when their son intitiated this demonic pattern of governance?

No reasonable Northerners should even say a word in condemnation of Tinubu Yorubanization of power. Personally, I will not fault him. What was Buhari thinking when he did the same? Oh, that when a Southerner becomes president he should worship the North and dash them all the positions again like Buhari did? Hell No!

The evil of tribal appointment has come to stay and the last we had it fair enough would be under Jonathan. So bravo Tinubu, on this nepotistic tendency, I stand with you gidigba. Let every region forever fill their own people. Kudos to Buhari.
Nepotistic tendency is subjective. It depends on who you ask. Just looking at the bolded, I could tell that you are either from SE or SS. The reason being that a lot of people believe that Jonathan's appointments favor the SE and SS very significantly.

The last time appointments were fair was under Obasanjo. Even the late Yar'adua that a lot of people almost canonize today because he died in power gave most of his appointments to the Northerners to the extent of giving CBN position to Sanusi, a fellow Fulani man. Southerners have mostly been the CBN governors since 1960.
Politics › Re: Tinubu Propaganda With His Hate Filled Online Soldier Will Destroy Nigeria by DoTheNeedful: 9:34pm On Jun 20, 2023
Opiop:
I was a victim of this propaganda. The new government is spending a hell of money to deceive the public. This is selling fast without a single sensitization from opposition parties. What is democracy without opposition ?

Sure, the student loan thing came like a blessing to many people. "Americana wonder of education don enter 9ja" even my friend, a Yoruba business man and though not able to read saw this as an adequate move to curb issues of school dropouts. I also had thesame vibe until i did my own research. Turned out, "student loan na Greek gift'. It will be made almost inaccessible to the common man and 90% of civil servants won't and will never have access to such luxury for their wards.

Aside being inaccessible to the poor and the middle class, this will increase school fees to about or more than 500K. Can you pay afford that for your ward, with your minimum wage?

Make we get sense abeg, all these "Tinubu dey try, Tinubu dey try, Gas money low, Water enter toilet, sheet nor smell again' all are paid propagandas to make you think the economy is working... I will keep this trend updated when I get to my office.

Nairaland is becoming stale and boring with people like LeoDeking, and the other Tinubu people derailing every front page with their spam of comments praising Tinubu. Even nairametrics is king at this moment.

If Seun fails to expell LeoDeking and his Tinubu stans from front page, he will totally loose Nairaland. For your notice, Nairaland daily views has dropped way below. Also, Nairaland users are not as many as you think as most account are not active because they were created by [--u know--] and subsequently suspended instead of being deleted.

Seun, it your call. You can sit down and let your Nairaland crumble or you can expel LeoDeKing and his Tinubu Stans from every front page.

Watch they will be the one dominating this first page...
You are angry because you feel the Obidient frenzy is cooling down due to the "performances" of Tinubu's government. I opened the thread to read a sensible argument, not knowing that it's just a ranting of an intolerant fellow. So, you are expecting Seun to ban certain members because they are too excited about the current administration? Sir, you need help.

PDP is closing their case, they are not withdrawing. Notice the difference. LP should be closing theirs too by next week.

By the way, if what Atiku's team have presented are all there is to their petition, then their case is watery. LP on the other hand, have been doing better than Atiku in my opinion, they have been more methodical in proving their case. However, there is nothing concrete so far.
Politics › Re: 7 Bad Omens That Preceded The Alaba Demolition Signaling A Yoruba Vendetta by DoTheNeedful:
AlexBells:
I'm fully in support of Igbos gradually reducing their investment in Lagos and take precautionary measures on acquiring non Movable properties.

Now to the issue at hand, while understanding that Lagos state government have every right to demolish distressed building as was said, the lead up and timing is suspicious. You can argue that a state can do whatever they wished without caring what anyone feels however perception is very important in governance.

Here in Enugu the governor tried to stop the sit at home head on earlier on but the people didn't pay attention to him becuase the people felt that was a wrong timing, he should first fix the potholes, becuase there's still a cold war so far Nnamdi Kanu is incarceration and creating another war is uncalled for.

Coming to the case of Lagos state, Igbos have that justification to feel targeted given the events of the last 3 months. 1. Tinubu losing in Lagos, 2. Sanwolu having a tough time winning in Lagos 3. The statement by the Lagos state house of assembly members threatening to make anti non indigenous laws. 4. The No Man's land saga 6. The increased rhetoric between Yorubas and Igbos and 7. The targeting and harassment of Igbos during the election.

All these are Omens that have transformed a government decision into a vendetta, who am I to advice the government that the timing was wrong and that it could have been better to give the Demolition at least six months, since the people in the business district are mainly Igbos, if the buildings collapsed on them fair enough.

These sort of morale lowering event is coming at a time when economic hardship is unfolding in the country, I don't know who will laugh last but Lagos state is being a little impatient and while those buildings were marked since 2016. The timing is suspicious.
The highlighted portion is very important.

Nigeria is lawless and disorganized country. There are rarely any saint or law-abiding citizen in Nigeria , and we all know this including the politicians. Every politician in Nigeria knows that every other politician is corrupt. So, when a politician gets into power (especially the president), he can easily use EFCC to harass his political opponents. But the truth is that, while his political opponents would shout to the world that they are being haunted, those political opponents actually have skeletons in their cupboards.


I would not argue that there is no form of vendetta in the manner the Lagos state government is going about the demolition, but these people are not innocent. If the government were to function properly in Nigeria, a lot of buildings would be demolished, jobs would be lost, people would go to jail. Those in government know this. So, if a group of people wants to fight the government in power, they should have their hands clean.

You can't as a group say that a government is not performing, voting against them en masse and not expect that government to open your books if the government gets returned to power. He who comes into Equity must come with clean hands..
Politics › Re: 10th Senate:How Senators Voted; SW Senators Rescued Akpabio With Block Votes by DoTheNeedful: 5:17pm On Jun 15, 2023
It is official, Kalu is anti-SW.

Kalu was the most vocal governor against Obasanjo from 1999 - 2007 and he was one of the governors encouraging Atiku rebellion then.


In 2022, Kalu said it was better for power to go the North than the South West.


In 2023, he voted against Akpabio to spite Tinubu and unsettle his Muslim-Muslim ticket.


Tinubu really made the right call by not supporting his ambition, he would have messed his administration up badly.

This proves nothing how? Why dontbyou wait for the judges to say that.

Blur due to lack of expertise of the officer indeed. So where are the TCC to show the real result, those ones will also be blurred abi.

You are the one who is extremely ignorant to think that the few you see on social media are all that was tendered. They brought boxes of supposed result and they are in court to prove that if the real results are presented there is a likely chance it will substantially alter the results in their favour. Again allow the judges do their jobs.

Your opinion from what you have seen in social media that wouldn't affect status quo is inconsequential.
What are in the boxes? Nothing I have seen yet is going to change the status quo. Things might change with the boxes, however, none of us know what they want to prove with the content of the boxes.
Politics › Re: Peter Obi Tender INEC Irev Blur Result At Tribunal Today by DoTheNeedful: 3:08pm On Jun 14, 2023
Lovelink1991:
Inec and Tinubu thinks that all politicians are the same until they met peter Obi who change the landscape of our democracy.

In quest to reclaimed his stolen mandate he has started tendering irev portal results on which some of them were made blurr by INEC.

This blurr results is what Yakubu mamhood used in announcing the drug Lord who is parading himself as president

Fear Okwute
This proves nothing. INEC never said they would be collating from the uploaded version of results. Besides, the blur might be due to lack of expertise by the officer in charge.

Some of you are very ignorant of how petition works. You keep posting isolated results all around the country to raise your hopes. Let's even assume that INEC were collating results based on the uploaded version, only thousands of blurred documents like this might be consequential.
You must be able to show that the blurred results could substantially alter the outcome of the result.

From what I have seen so far on social media, there is nothing in my opinion, that is strong enough to tilt the court against the status quo.
Politics › Re: Moment Akpabio Got Excited While Performing His First Duty As Senate President by DoTheNeedful:
TheOldGods:
in my all tears of studying geographical terrains, there is nothing on this earth like south South. It's either South East or south West. Nothing like South north, South South. The south South is South East.
What about Middle East or Mid West? The United States have those kinds of geographical distinctions too. Qualifications like South-South are meant for distinction. I understand where you are coming from. Most people I have met that dislike the "South-south" distinction are Igbos who believe the distinction is a way to divide the old Eastern region. I think that kind of thinking is disingenuous.

@leviaka a social commentator
Being an IGBO MAN who grew up all his life in Lagos , surulere precisely and speaks the Yoruba language fluently and have so many Yoruba friends. And who loves and respect the Yoruba’s.
In the 70’s and 80’s as kids we all play together especially football , we visit each other homes, being conscious of our education we wrote WAEC and also JAMB some of us went to the university outside Lagos some of my Yoruba friends even schooled in UNN (but today some Yorubas are afraid to school in the east or do their NYSC there) me I schooled in a university in the south south region
I remember vividly what happened during the 1993 general election MKO ABIOLA a Yoruba man defeated TOFA a Kano indigene in Kano state, just as PETER OBI defeated TINUBU in Lagos state, yet the northerners did not threaten the Yoruba’s in Kano or any other indigene.
What people did not realize or understand especially the AGBERO politicians is that both Abiola and Obi won because of their charisma and popularity and because people want change and the best brains in the case of Abiola he has friends all over the country (a lesson to our agbero politicians who are ethnic champions) it was unfortunate that the northern military oligarchs annulled that election. They did it because they thought power belongs to them only, they learnt their lesson afterwards and thi’s paved the way for a Yoruba man SHONEKON to replace IBB and eventually for obasanjo a Yoruba man to be voted into power.
I remember then how the British government warned the northerners to give power to the Yoruba’s or face the consequences they OBIDIENTLY obliged ,they know if Nigeria disintegrates they will be the poorest region in the world.
If Nigeria disintegrates which I don’t pray for those regions that has no resources will suffer so much, and those who have might mismanage it and suffer also so let us not think about it, because it will come with a bloody price and those who think non indigenes will be chased out of Lagos because of some SATANIC laws are only having a pipe dream you don’t just chase away a people after investing so much in your land and you cannot force them to vote for someone of your choice because nobody had ever forced the Yoruba’s to vote against their choice in other regions, but if those agbero politicians and their followers decide to do otherwise the Yoruba’s will never recover from the consequences people will relocate so fast and Lagos economy will crumble so fast because (read about the capital flight in San Francisco USA which is becoming a failed city in Newsweek magazine drugs, murder etc are driving people Away)
So my advice to those AGBERO politicians that wants to cause problem to think twice don’t push non indigenes especially the IGBOS to the wall , your kinsman TINUBU is in power so rejoice while it last ,be happy and grateful to GOD, don’t push your luck too far Igbo are more concerned about their business than politics they have moved on with their lives so don’t tamper with their hard earned wealth , we Igbos will rather live in comfort than live in penury and be praising leaders that have nothing to offer because they are in POWER even if they are Igbo,
To those Yoruba who mainly are not indigenes of Lagos(Those who have taken over the state from the real aborigines) but are spearheading this should be prepared of what will befall Lagos, which are, poor revenue, crime(lots of it) , millions of Agbero roaming the street, strife, movement of non indigenes to there states, loss of oil well by Yoruba elites, loss of foreign investment ,suicide , ethnic awareness (IFE/MODAKKE, aworis, ijebus, illajes, etc will now notice there differences.
PLEASE let PEACE REIGN
LONG LIVE NIGERIA and also GOD bless all liberal minded people across the country , both Yoruba, Igbo, Hausa, ijaw, tiv, etc
Abiola didn't go to Kano a week later to anoint a governorship candidate and dog-whistle to the Yorubas in Kano to vote for his candidate because he felt he was more popular than Tofa in Kano.

Nigeria is not ripe for that kind of politics. While I believe in Nigeria, I am also a strong advocate of people respecting their boundaries. When I travel to Bayelsa, Imo or Kano, I will like to feel free, but I would also be conscious that there are some people with historical ties and emotional attachment to those places.

This life is simple I swear.

Abiola defeated tofa in south east in 1993 with a few thousand votes inspite of the fact that tofa fielded an igbo vice and Abiola did Muslim- Muslim ticket .Arthur Nzeribe is one of the most hated men today in south east even in his home town of orlu because of the way he with IBB, HRM Sijuade and co truncated democracy. Igbos voted Abiola not because he was Yoruba or not but because during his campaigns he proffered practical solutions on how to solve Nigeria’s problems ie he was the best candidate. Igbos believe in good governance as against politics of poverty, same reason that made igbos support Abiola, Obasanjo, yaradua, Jonathan and Obi made them reject emilokan as incompetent because he ran away from the opportunity to address Nigerians on how he would solve the problems of the country
Why do some of you like to lie blatantly? Abiola LOST South East clearly. He only won Anambra? Would you say Atiku won South West because he won Osun in the last election?

I'm sure you were not even born in 1993. Historically, Igbo and Yoruba don't vote in agreement. The two times Igbos and Yorubas voted in agreement were in 2003 for OBJ and 2011 for GEJ. In 1999 when Yoruba voted against OBJ in favor of Falae, the Igbos voted against Falae. Please, study Nigeria's history very well before spewing lies online.

SojWORLDWIDE:
THE piece below was written by one Adedamola Adetayo with accompanied viral video where the wife of the Osun State Governor, Ngozi Adeleke was seen exercising her authority.  The video was tagged, "Osun State Governor's wives in a show of shame."

Ngozi holds Ademola Adeleke in Osun and Betty Anyawu holds Arakunrin Akeredolu in Ondo by Adedamola Adetayo.
Ordinarily, it shouldn't have meant anything.
I wouldn't have been so much bothered if these women were Ijaws, Ibibios, Efik, Igala, Urhobos or even Kanuris.

But you see the IGBO WOMAN, even if she's blind or not that kind of ZIONIST person, which is very rare, her IGBO KINSMEN will impress it upon her that she is the "ESTHER" that God has appointed for them in THAT LOCATION.

That is their mindset.
Today, If you bother to go to Osun and Ondo Government houses and Civil Service now, you will be surprised what you will find.

They will be sprawling with Igbo people while qualified Yoruba people of those states won't have the opportunity or less opportunities than the igbos.

A man like Ademola Adeleke isn't even Yoruba in the real sense of it.
He is Yoruba only in his name and blood.

You couldn't find the Omolúàbí traits in him and that is why he dances about like a nuisance.
There is ABSOLUTELY NO WAY THAT A NON-IGBO, WHICHEVER TRIBE, YORUBAS ESPECIALLY, will enjoy in IGBO LAND A HUNDREDTH of the opportunities the igbos enjoy in Yoruba land.
I can say it anywhere.

Now, go to Anambra and ask if Margaret Obi EVER IN HER LIFE enjoyed this kind of Ngozi Adeleke influence in Anambra State when her husband, Peter Obi was Governorhuh??

Then compare Margaret Obi to Ebele, the very garrulous wife of Willy Obiano, Obi's successor.


I don't even need to check, I can sit down in my house in Abeokuta to imagine it.

What you will surely find is that while Ebele was going about with so much influence, constituting nuisance everywhere, Margaret Obi was almost totally away from public scene.


It's not because Obi did anything honourable but because Margaret is NON IGBO from Cross Rivers State and wouldn't dare parade herself over Anambra people!

Do you also know that TODAY, if anything happens to Ademola Adeleke or Arakunrin Akeredolu, their WIVES will almost SINGLE-HANDEDLY determine what happens next to their late husbands estate?


But if anything happens to Peter Obi TODAY, do you know that Margaret Obi is on GOD'S GOOD HUMOUR?

She WON'T EVEN DARE to open her mouth in the ANAMBRA family of her husband. She will surely be humiliated.


I say it without fear of contradiction
That is just how far these people take others for FOOLS!!!
i know these things!!!

It's a terrible thing to be jobless in one's 40s with mouths to feed. I would recommend the FG job. If 95k is what is stated on your appointment letter, then your total pay will be significantly more than that. Before I left Nigeria, I was working in a federal government establishment. My offer letter stated 76k, but my take home after tax was around 108k. This was 10 years ago.

If you you know that the president is the governor of the FCT you will not lay these claims. He governs the FCT through the appointment of a minister of the FCT.

Politics › Re: Those Arguing 25% In FCT, See What The Constitution Says About States In Nigeria by DoTheNeedful: 7:14pm On May 17, 2023
I posted this in another thread!



The argument about winning 25% in FCT is the most ridiculous of all the arguments being made by the opposition. It is funny that some senior lawyers who are obviously partisan are also making the argument.

The FCT is just a federating unit like any other state in Nigeria and it's like a 37th state. For people arguing about "AND", I suggest you read Schedule III of the Nigerian constitution which nobody is talking about. It clearly use the same "AND" for the distribution of police commissioners to the 36 states AND the FCT, appointment of commissioners to the National Population Commission from each of the 36 states AND the FCT, appointment of commissioners to the RMAFC from each of the 36 states AND the FCT, appointment of commissioners to INEC from each of the 36 states AND the FCT, appointment of representatives to the FCC from each of the 36 states and the FCT, etc. These are exactly in the same spirit with having 2/3 of the 36 states and the FCT.

In all the above cases, the FCT is clearly seen as a federating unit. As a result, it does not have a special status like some people like to make it, and it should be treated as a state.

I see the court throwing out the FCT case. The best bet for the opposition is to prove that the election was rigged sufficiently enough to change the outcome of the election.

It clearly use the same "AND" for the distribution of police commissioners to the 36 states AND the FCT, appointment of commissioners to the National Population Commission from each of the 36 states AND the FCT, appointment of commissioners to the RMAFC from each of the 36 states AND the FCT, appointment of commissioners to INEC from each of the 36 states AND the FCT, appointment of representatives to the FCC from each of the 36 states and the FCT, etc. These are exactly in the same spirit with having 2/3 of the 36 states and the FCT.

In all the above cases, the FCT is clearly seen as a federating unit. As a result, it does not have a special status like some people like to make it, and it should be treated as a state.

I see the court throwing out the FCT case. The best bet for the opposition is to prove that the election was rigged sufficiently enough to change the outcome of the election.

Which kind useless judgement be this..I am not supporting crime but what happened to sentencing them to jail for a number of years.
The useless politicians stealing billions are busy roaming free and are being celebrated while ordinary criminals ate being sentenced to death.. smh for Nigeria
I understand your perspective. However, based on our existing laws, the judgement was well delivered. According to our laws, there is a clear difference between robbery and armed robbery. If I took your phone at gun-point or knife-point , I would be given a death penalty. If I snuck into your room to steal your phone, I might be given few months in prison.

A politician that steals billions would be given a more favourable sentence than a Kingsley that took your 5,000 using knife.

If there is any group of people that worship the ground a White man walks on, it is the Obidients. They look for any jobless White man, give him some money and give him something to read out. They spread it on social media and say it's from the international community.

Who is the person in this video? What is his designation? Which body does he represent? grin grin grin
