This warehouse economist of a man don come again.
Is it bad for the NPA to have an office in London? The biggest city in the world? What if that’s a way of generating revenue for the NPA to become self reliant at the London office?
How will any sane president not want his country to have an efficient ports office in one of the biggest cities in the world.
Now I agree with Tinubu, Obi is just a warehouse economist and trader who couldn’t transform Anambra but wants to transform Nigeria. Bala bulu economics

London, biggest city in the world?
There, right there, I knew that you don't have what it takes.

At 92, the "Old geezer" who wants to finish Nigeria.

The 92 year old man who celebrated his 72nd birthday at a state function in Lagos in 2001 still claims to be 72 today.
If Bola Tinubu is 72 today, it means he had his 69 year old daughter, the Iyaloja at the ripe age of 3.

Moh247:
Can we all respect people's culture and decisions of grown adults

Would you respect other people's culture without claiming that your prophet has been blasphemed?

Didn't Tinubu say that it's an insult to mention Obi's name in front of him?
Face to face debate loading!

umunaija:
All Progressives Congress presidential candidate, Bola Tinubu, says Igbos were migrating to Lagos because the Labour Party’s presidential flagbearer, Peter Obi, failed as governor to develop Anambra State.

“You will have to be labouring under a terrible delusion if you think he will do a better job for this nation than he did for Anambra State.

“What is there to be proud of after Obi left? Obi has nothing to be proud of. Instead Obi moved, left Anambra crying. He moved to Lagos,” Mr Tinubu said at a presidential rally in Ondo on Saturday.

The former Lagos State governor added that, “I’m indeed very sorry. Buyers beware. A salesman selling fake merchandise. Beware of people like Obi.

“The truth of the difference between my leadership and that of Mr Obi lies in one observation. Although Lagos is crowded because of the space left when they migrate to Lagos from Anambra,” Mr Tinubu said.

Speaking further, Mr Tinubu said, “It is a wicked parent like Obi given the opportunity to feed the children but hoard money on his hands when the children starve and go to bed hungry.

“That is Obi wickedness. It is true that the heartless governor will hoard money when there are hungry school children, roads and clinics are in disrepair.”

Popular for being a frugal administrator, Mr Obi anchors his campiagn on transforming Nigeria from a consumption to production country.

Last year, Mr Obi said that some Nigerians were urging Mr Tinubu to contest the presidency despite his apparent ailment because his doles out money.

In few weeks time, the former Anambra governor will contest the presidency against APC’s Bola Tinubu, PDP’s Atiku Abubakar and host of other candidates.

Uuhhhhmmmm!
Something changed oh!
A few weeks ago Tinubu said that mention PO in his presence was an insult.
Today, he's yabbing PO with his own dirty mouth. What has changed?

adecz:
Buhari destroyed the military
establishment with his nepotism,
ethnocentrism & religious bigotry.☪️☪️☪️

If you aren't Fulani or Kanuri, you are
denied rightful posting or promotions.
This happen in all arms of the armed
forces including Customs & immigration.

But when it comes to dangerous postings,
it Igbo, Yoruba, Idoma, Kataf or Berom
officers that are sent, while Fulani remain
where money is and get promoted ahead
of field combatants❗️❗️☹️☹️☹️☹️

Officers are leaving out of frustration.

Exactly!

Why would reasonable soldiers not resign when Nigerian army has transformed into Fulani army?

Bala Mohammed is from Bauchi, remember the last governor from Bauchi who pretended to be working for GEJ as PDP chairman, and turned out to be a Fulani mole supporting the opposition.

Throwback:
You mean Tinubu was the one that directed the banner picture?

See as goal post dey change by hypocrites.

Dem even block the main pastor name just to have the desperate fellow on the banner.

What he is saying is that it's a poor hatchet job by Tinubu urchins trying to divert attention from the official stealing and manipulation of people's pictures, accepted, and adopted by the thief himself.

Place if birth- forgery
Elementary school-forgery
Secondary school- forgery
University education-forgery
Profession- forgery

Gov Duke picture as you Tinubu- forgery
Bishop endorsement- forgery
Igbo attire picture- forgery

List of official forgery, agreed, and released by Tinubu campaign is too numerous to count.

Youths meeting with Tinubu in Abuja.

Is that him for real?
Wait until someone comes to claim the picture before you know Tinubu has stolen someone picture as usual.

Naajjii:
Atleast Kwankwanso is far better than Obi and his ipob followers, what is arrogance, you want Kwankwanso to be Obi's vice ? just imagine

Objectively, put Obi and Kwankwaso on a pedestal, weigh them critically and as unbiased as possible, then tell us who has more potential to fly the Nigerian plane to higher heights!
Is it education?
Honesty?
Track record?
Vision?

What?

Kwankwaso will tell you that Obi is an Igbo man. Have we not heard that before?

Mrfixitt:
This religious and tribal bigot is beginning to talk too much.

Bigotry!
That's what's all about!

ImperialYoruba:
I am not one of those you can threaten or intimidate with oil money built Lagos, and not get a sound response.

I know many of you villagers lack knowledge of Nigerian history but you are talking to someone that will school you thoroughly, and I dare say you are not remitting enough money to Lagos to cover our expenses for your welfare and or for hosting your monuments.

We will get a special status for Lagos, the way it was before anything called oil was discovered. Your welfare in Lagos has expiration date.

Go and read a case decided in London in 1921 between Amodu Tijjani and Secretary Southern Provinces. The genesis of your reimbursement to Lagos is narrated, it is the law, you have no choice. But Lagos has choice to terminate all the contracts of land deeds and their tenure and sack non paying squatters. We have the law on our side, and history has reference to the fact Lagos was never a province of Nigeria.

You are illiterate, dont discuss politics or history of Lagos with me and expect a free ride, you will be flogged with hard facts that show you and your federal govt are squatters in Lagos.

You haven't shown yourself to be a rational mind, what's use trying to reason with you?
Lagos landed properties are the only thing that expires after 100 years, the corporate existence of Nigeria as an amalgam of convince in 1904, has since expired, but unfortunately, we still have to share this nation with criminally minded cheap and lazy tribalist like you.
Yes, go ahead and forcefully take over an Igboman's property in Lagos, because you're an urchin working for Iyaloja, Tinubu, and MC Olumo.

leokid866:
more than 70% of budget......wawu.... ......you just dey pull the figure anyhow from your yansh.......well done

I forgot Tinubu designed, built, and developed Lagos!
.... from his drug money?

ImperialYoruba:
This is an opinion.

Northern rulers have always advocated for a program which is to counter the effect of geographical disadvantage of desertification on farms, livestocks and herds. So they used irrigation systems facilitated by dams.
An example is Tiga dam in Kano, which is one of the most affected States in North. Due to effects of climate change and cyclical weather patterns, those dams, though functional, are perennial and now appear to be less than adequate to supply farmlands and grazing livestocks. They asked for Federal Government intervention.


For years there have been studies on the River Chad water basin to try and find a more enduring solution to the problem.

If you all recall, when Buhari came to power in 2015, before he had appointed ministers he asked for status reports on the Chad water basin. Northern rulers approached him and got his commitment to intervene from the Federal level. A draft to expand grazing routes and create watering holes along the route led to two Federal agendas.

1. Take over water rights all over Nigeria
2. Establish protected land rights for grazing.

These two agendas together gave rise to RUGA.

When the news broke Southern leaders and rulers were livid. They saw RUGA as a subsidy programme that lock the hands of indigeneous farmers and land owners behind their back so a priviledged trade, "livestock grazing", can have free rights of access to ancestral lands.

I am sure no Yoruba person reading this will say he/she supports RUGA anywhere in Yorubaland. It is total opposition. Opposition to RUGA is so strongly asserted that previously dormant native groups were brought to surface to assert separation of Yoruba from Nigeria.

RUGA can come to Yorubaland in different forms, and hidden behind different agendas.

A political RUGA is what we are seeing lately from people of SouthEast.

So let me give some perspective, first on what constitutes Nigeria. This country is a composition of disparate ethnic cultures with nothing in common, but each area is blessed in different assets and comparative advantage.

People have migrated between the different regions and ethnic territories, and assimilated to the new group temporarily, or sometimes permanently. There are rules that migrants follow, the native wisdom is to respect and honor your hosts and not conduct yourself in ways that is sacrilegious to the sacredness of their land. This is a broad definition. Usually, people become wise to the rule after a couple of lessons learnt.

After the civil war, a subsidy programme existed to resettle and reabsorb SouthEasterners into mainstream politics of Nigeria. The subsidy has outlived its value and time. The people have recovered fully, it is time the subsidy is removed so that Igbos do not continue to enjoy privileges that are denied to indigenes that host them.

The people of SouthEast have made enemies all around them due to learning deficiencies. Repeatedly, they have clashed with other regions and ethnic groups and suffered greatly from the outcomes in bloodshed, yet they continue in their ways. A wise person does not continuously put himself at risk of loss in property and lives unless of course they are deficient in learning and self correcting.

In SouthSouth region, a steady conflict of interest and disruptions to peaceful cohabitation brews from time to time between the indigenes and their Igbo guests. Recently on a courtesy visit to the elders of South South, Peter Obi, a leading Igbo candidate for political office referred to portions of Delta as Igboland. In their response, the Elders shut down this idea and drew the line correctly to remind where Igboland ends. The agenda is to completely Igbonize the SouthSouth region politically, economically, culturally, and then assert rights of domiciliary lords to claim it as an exclusive domain, requiring the indigenes to first obtain access permits from the migrant group to enter the area.

Today certain areas of Lagos have already been declared by Igbos as domiciliary domains and exclusive zones. They want total control of the domain, and do not believe Yoruba are qualified to represent these listed domains in legislative sittings or economic forums. Hence Igbos are asserting the rights to push Yoruba out of congressional constituencies that have been carved out for economic exclusivity of Igbo business. The success they achieved in commodity trading they want to expand into political powers and convert territorial control by first displacing Yoruba from their territory, and then becoming the new territory power. This agenda is hidden behind false claims of constitutional right.

The Igbo RUGA agenda must be stopped immediately. The constitution of Nigeria does not approve of territorial conversions. If it did Buhari should have succeeded and RUGA should be everywhere across Southern Nigeria by now. The agenda of Igbo to hide behind political agenda and economic subsidy to convert territory need urgent and immediate attention of Yoruba leaders and rulers.

There is no constitutional statute that allows Buhari to setup RUGA, there is no constitutional statute that allows any group or ethnic clan to setup exclusive enclaves for themselves, either for business or otherwise.

The Igbo enclaves in Yorubaland need to be broken up and the economic subsidy needs to stop.

I have to copy all your crazy opinions in order to show how devilish you are, really.
When the federal government was spending more than 70% of the budget developing Lagos with oil money produced from the east, you fought for One Nigeria.
When the federal government started reconstructing Lagos and it's environ after the war, instead of reconstructing the east that was actually damaged during the war, where were you?
When the government located more than 80% new industries in and around Lagos, forcing other Nigerians like Igbos to migrate to Lagos, where were you?
When tribalistic Yoruba civil servants insisted on closing down eastern and midwestern sea ports in order to give Lagos port a boost, resulting in unexpected congestion, where were you?
When Igbos come to Lagos poor, work themselves to death, buy land, develop it, where were you?
If Igbos simply work themselves to death, pay taxes, serve lazy Yorubas, and don't vote, then you will be happy? That's called apartheid, segregation, tribalism, but it will be ok for you, because you are lazy, wicked, and bound for destruction by your own foolishness. Go and start a war against Igbos in Lagos, and let's see how far you will go.

Jobless aspirant!

Look at how hungry, ill, unkept and pale, he is looking!

He cannot even afford quality Tuxedo, but best at day dreaming.

NDLEA need to do a thorough investigation and search of aspirants premises. Cos his aspiration is not ordinary, and definitely born out of hard drugs

SAY NO TO HARD DRUGS

Say no to hard drugs!
Haaaaaah, and advice Tinubu can use. Forfeited $400k for drug peddling.
Anyway, what's wrong with an Igboman vying for a position in Lagos, a Yoruba man running in Abia, or Hausa man trying to win a position in Calabar?
Is that not what One Nigeria is all about?
Or you are just too tribalistic to see?

"We Lagosians "?
Some are from Irigbiji.
Nothing stops Yorubas from contesting elections in Anambra, and nothing stops Igbos from contesting in Lagos.
Up One Nigeria!

Imagine what the headline would have been if OBJ had endorsed Tinubu!

Yes oh!

Klinee:
Akpanya people should do everything possible to get rid of any form IPOB activities in their village.
They should fight them with their last blood to ensure that IPOB/ESN/UGM did not establish and open their camp in their village because if they allowed them, is going to be disastrous

Igala people have bigger problems than Igbos, and you know that!
How many Igalas, Tiv, Idoma people are in refuge IDP camps as we speak, because their villages have been taken over by you know who? Not IPOB.

sarkinbauchi:
It is a known fact that most Nigerians from the South East are never loyal. Politically, they are the cause of their own problems but are quick to blame Northern politicians with their fulanisation of Nigeria bullshits.

Name one Igbo man that can do what Tambuwal did in the PDP Presidential primary election for Atiku?


Showing that you have too much sense and open eye is not good sometimes, because it will become nonsense and foolishness eventually.

Take a look at the methods used by many Nigerians majorly from the SE region of fronting the only Presidential candidate from there. They resort to abuses and insults on any Nigerian not in tandem with their choice of candidate, not minding the fact that in any election, the opinions of all should be respected.

In the race to 2023, a lot of diplomacy and stepping down will occur across politcal parties to ensure one major candidate emerges as the formidable contestant.

They are still learning the diplomacy and cunninnes in politics and it may take sometime before they understand how politcs is played.

Hate speech masquerading as advice, suggestions and concern.

SilverOrLead:
I believe you are still bent on repeating the old eastern region where your grand parents lorded over the minorities and stole their resources .

It will shock you .

If you see how your muslim Yoruba hatred take dey drip off your mouth, you will stop trying to pretend.

plaindealer:
lol @ asking for the full view as if it will change what we are looking at?
The dumb and idiotic rubbish we read on NL sef..

So much pain, so much lies!
Show us the hospital Toonubo built in 2013.
Oh, I forgot he built LUTH Idi Araba!

SilverOrLead:
Fool

Go look in the mirror, you will see the fool there.

Who trust all these forced confessions implicating IPOB.
Everyone knew who killed Gulak, even Gulak warned about someone in Aso Rock being after his life. Remember they initially arrested some boys fighting onion sellers as the killers of Gulak.
Obviously, his killers had some coordination with someone who knew his itinerary from Abuja.

MimiSheWrote:
Lol people are really naive... You only need common sense to know that OP is making sense... Cos an apple doesn't fall far away from its tree.

Yoruba and Igbo are too close geographically not to have shared the same ancestors or language at some point... Language evolves faster than you can imagine.

If you managed to travel back in time to about 2000 years ago as an Igbo or yoruba, I doubt you would understand a single word coming out of your ancestors mouth.

The only sad thing about we Africans is that our history wasn't properly documented. Just some embarrassing mythical stories

Very true!
When a people refer to God by the same word, it might suggest that at some point they shared some aspects of their language.
Among the words shared by Igbos and Yorubas to mean the same thing, the most significant is God, Olisa, Orisa, Orisha.
Olisaemeka is the same as Chukwuemeka in Igboland---- depending on dialect.
I am sure that you have similar Yoruba names meaning God has done wonders, prefaced with Orisa----

OyigboUpdate:
Without IPOB killing Igbos and crying fulani herdsmen nobody will donate for ESN and Unknown gunmen.

Gidgiddy and Emergingnation3
Will tell us to ignore the police video evidence of the culprits caught red handed. Then they will give us a write up of IPOB denying

Disgrace.

OP, This kind of religious emotional blackmail have expired. Try something else

Thanks.
Tell it to the 40 innocent Christians slaughtered in their homes in south Kaduna yesterday.
Emotional blackmail is being numb to other people's suffering because of religion, and obviously you are guilty.

He doesn't know the meaning of: built, rebuild, upgrade, or improve.

PussyMiners:
See this autistic osu miscreant.. We know your gimmick and we are not buying

I don't blame you muslims, Christians are simply begging for you to stop killing them. South Kaduna killing of Christians will be the routine once this Muslim Muslim ticket gets power.
