PoliticsRe: Lagos LG Poll: Ojo APC Group Rejects Igbo Nominee For Vice-chairman by ElevationD: 5:21pm On May 18, 2025
Chinjo2:
The flag bearer chose an igbo man because he knows that he alone can get 60 of the total vote cast. If you know Ojo very well you will understand what I am talking about.
Ojo is an igbo dominated area.
Don’t mind the yeye people. After rejecting an Igbo vice chairman, they will still ask Igbo members in APC Ojo to vote in favour of APC.

If not for these tribalistic views, should Ojo not be one of the best in the entire country? The LG covers a very vast area, largely dominated by not just the Igbos, but the Aworis, northerners and persons of other tribes. The biggest electrical and electronics market in Africa is located there, generating the biggest income for the LG. Unfortunately because of greed and corruption, they completely continue to ignore that major road leading from Volks, through Alaba market, enroute to other areas covered by the LG. As we get into the raining season, it will become more difficult for residents of the area to navigate. Even Okokomaiko and its axis are in trouble. Rather than face development as the LG, some yeye politicians are busy talking racism. Again, they will race to the same Igbos to request for money to finance the election.

Ojo LGA was completely a PDP territory until Jimi Agbaje lost the area when he contested the election in 2019.

leave him to be consoling himself. Guardiola had already written his name in gold. He has set record in premier league that might take more than twenty years to break. First manager to win domestic treble ( EPL, FA and Carling cup) and also first manager to win straight four premier league. Which one has Arteta set since over five season with almost 500m pounds spent already. I really share fans with low people who are comfortable in the past three season to be in second position.no trophy for second position. Only first is good enough.
Twenty teams play each season and just one wins. Twenty coaches lead the teams and only one wins. Liverpool never was expected to win it this season. The calculation was Man city, who lost on all fronts. Of all the teams that play each season, you singled out Arsenal. No cry pass who matter happen to. Face your own side. Bros console your own self. We know say you go pretend to be Liverpool fan. Shioorrr.

What kind of play was that? How would a whole 16 year old say that he was playing with a loaded gun? Why not tell us that he was practicing how to shoot and would have started when he perfected it? Now the careless father lost his daughter and the son would suffer the consequence.

What kind of foolishness was that? The other day, one man brought in a wild lion as a toy. The lion killed him without delay.

EducationRe: Govt Urged To Abolish Arabic, Islamic Qualifications Being Equated With WAEC,…. by ElevationD: 5:40pm On May 17, 2025
Lanre1st:
How is it going to be other way round that have not happened. Many of the theology schools are affiliated to many Nigeria Institutions and they are accepted anywhere. Many pastors get their Bsc in theology from their various churches. What do you want
“According to the group, the elevation of NBAIS certifications, especially those related to Tahfeez and SAISSCE, to the same level as WAEC and NECO amounts to privileging one religion while systematically excluding others”.

That’s the issue in contention. Always read with understanding. Reading over again also helps.

Foreign AffairsRe: Israel Launches Major Offensive To 'seize And Control' Areas Of Gaza. by ElevationD:
What a pity. What a calamity on the innocent Gazans because of the foolishness of Hamas. Why not let go of the hostages and let peace be restored?

Everyone had rested earlier in the year believing that peace had come to stay. Hamas foolishness began to taunt the Israelis and claimed that they defeated Israel. Hezbollah had been silenced in a matter of weeks. Syria was swept aside and Bassar defeated. The Iraqi side went quiet, but Hamas still continued to choose the difficult part.

Donald Trump called Gaza “prime land”. He has interest in making Gaza an extension of the USA, jointly benefitting with Israel. Hopefully this carnage can come to an end quickly and Hamas swept aside for complete peace in Gaza and the Westbank.

PoliticsRe: Hardship: Africa Is Sitting On Kegs Of Gunpowder – Obasanjo by ElevationD: 10:56pm On May 16, 2025
treesun:
Former President Olusegun Obasanjo, Governor Ademola Adeleke of Osun State, and the Ooni of Ife, Adeyeye Enitan Ogunwusi, have called for the urgent end to abject poverty across Africa.


Obasanjo insisted that if China could lift 700 million people out of poverty, Nigeria ought to have something to do with abject poverty.




Speaking during Dele Momodu’s leadership lecture, ‘How to end hunger and poverty in Africa,’ Chief Obasanjo, in his keynote address, posited that “before we talk about food, security is key.”

While proffering a lasting solution to hunger across Africa, Obasanjo insisted that “education is one of the tools we can use to banish poverty. Where there’s no education, invariably, there will be poverty.

He posited that leadership is removed from banishing abject poverty: “In all works of life, we must have leaders whose characters display ‘communality’.


“Leadership is the greatest ingredient for ending poverty. There’s no human endeavour that does not thrive on leadership.

“To get it right, we must ensure no child is uneducated.

“Nigeria can eliminate hunger and poverty with integrity, discipline and good governance.

We can do it if China can lift 700 million people out of poverty.


“Nigeria should have no business with abject poverty. If we don’t take responsibility, we all sit on a gunpowder keg.


Until we banish poverty in Africa, international communities will not recognize us as a serious continent.” He said


While congratulating President Obasanjo on his submission, the Ooni of Ife urged everyone to be patriotic by collaborating with the government.

He said, “If we want to break poverty in this country, we have to be patriotic in all ramifications. From the food we eat to the clothes we wear. We may not get it right at first, but in a short time we would be the envy of the world.”

For his part, Governor Ademola Adeleke of Osun State, while congratulating Chief Momodu for his leadership centre in Ibadan, Oyo State, maintained that most political officeholders are too big to reach out to guardians.


“The problem we have is that people don’t have the fear of God. I invited President Obasanjo twice to Osun State to inspect the rapid development I am bringing there.

I am trying to build the Atlanta standard of spaghetti junction.” He said.

https://www.vanguardngr.com/2025/05/hardship-were-all-sitting-on-kegs-of-gunpowder-obasanjo/
They were talking about banishing poverty and insecurity and Adeleke was talking about building the Atlantic spaghetti junction. How did they co-relate please. Would that junction bring an end to poverty in his state.

These Governors must put an end to this nonchalant attitude towards the plight of the citizens.

We must ensure proper education.
We must ensure security.
We then must ensure that our agriculture works and people can get food at decent prices.

Please enlighten me sir. Where is the lie? If Atiku used the word “crushed” and yet we did not hear of any acts of terrorism by boko haram then, would that not be equated to mean the word “control”?

In all the eight years of Obasanjo’s Presidency, did you hear of any destructive act by the boko haram sect? A very prominent former minister in Buhari’s government was quoted to have been there with boko haram in the beginning. Why would such a person be part of the government? Between 2002 and 2007 while OBJ was in power, did you hear of any murderous act by boko haram?

Obasanjo didn't defeat them, he was able to manage the issue like other leaders before him. It was after thier leader was executed by the police after he was captured by the army the issue went out of hand.
He absolutely flushed them out.
They returned in 2009 under Yaradua.
PoliticsRe: Obasanjo and I Tackled Boko Haram In 2002 - Atiku (Video) by ElevationD: 11:24am On May 16, 2025
Very correct. Obasanjo never tolerated it for one moment. He would get soldiers into that place and flush out the wicked fellows.

With Obasanjo, you could dare such. Northerners, especially in the northern east and northern west have severally been alleged to make money out of it. With Obasanjo in power, they would all be gone in one moment.

GEJ followed up with mercenaries, until the same northern leaders started their allegations against him.

Buhari allowed it to thrive and spread nationwide. Now even Tinubu finds it hard to control. If he tackled them, will they allow him again in 2027?
CrimeRe: Lady Passes Away After An Overnight Visit To A Man She Met On Tiktok. by ElevationD: 11:15am On May 16, 2025
Inspite of the very obvious risks, ladies still visit men in such manner.

You do not need any man to live a stable and very decent life. There are too many opportunities out the for women. Even the uneducated find ways to train so many children, selling their different products.

That woman who sells boli, akara/fried yams/fish, catfish, dried fish, groundnuts, ogi, noodles/eggs make plenty of money. These young lazy ladies want to sleep with men who only give them one day’s enjoyment and kill them.

Measures now must be taken, just like it was done by the Anambra state governor. Native doctors, ritualists and quick money makers are on the run in Anambra state. All the states, must promulgate such laws for the safety of all citizens.

Many years ago, a friend of mine employed a driver. The young man started work that morning at 8am. That morning he was handed the papers of the car, just in case of the usual where your particulars people. His first assignment was to purchase petrol into the car. He drove off and never returned. When we searched for him, his address was fake. His guarantor fake. The car was never seen again.

Just imagine the thief in the picture. Day1 stole items worth over 10k. If he was not caught, he probably would keep stealing that amount worth of goods until he finished the shop. The madman did not realize that there was CCTV or he probably underrated it. He maybe never thought that he would be caught. That’s the type who people employ as housekeepers and they remove money and gold.
