Is it the camera or is she really skinny?

She is really skinny. She even looked a bit better on the set of SUITS.

Look at the bastard's face. He looks like a criminal.

I like the way you reason you truly belong to my age of "great thinkers"

Thank you.

A lot have changed bro. The governors are trying. Go to the north and compare.

Hmmm...

The situation in Nigeria can be likened to a man, the owner of a mansion.

He stocks the pantry with different types of foodstuff to the brim and then employs a house help to cook for him.

The house help cooks delicious meals all the time but only scrapes the bottom of the pot for the master of the house.

The master of the house keeps singing the praise of the house help and telling all that will listen how much his housekeeper is trying and taking care of him. Yet all he eats is crumbs and bottom of pot.

That's the best analogy I can use to describe the average Nigerian who says his governor is trying.

Regional government remains the permanent option but since they won't have and have resisted it, equity must be brought to bear. And please don't count the Zik presidency as an effective one. They created the rotational presidency as a temporary system.

It doesn't matter if the man as president didn't function or act well. The truth is the Southeast has produced a PRESIDENT.

Saying that his post was ceremonial is immaterial.

Have the Igbos produced a PRESIDENT? Yes. Let's move on then.

It remains the North Central or Middle belt region to produce President and maybe Northeast.

meromero11:
Supported. However, SE presidency is long overdue. The chances of finding a dullard in the SE is very low compared to the N

Now that is very tribalistic and bigoted.

The governors ruling in the Southeast, are they also northerners? Or what exactly has changed in the east since the return of democracy?

meromero11:
Rotational presidency is based on geopolitical consideration not on ethnic factor. First president was a figure head with virtually no powers. 2023 should be the turn of the SE and should not be challenged by other zones. We should not replace a fulani man with another fulani man. They are simply scheming and brainwashing us in order to grab 12years rule while they couldn't tolerate 10-years of GEJ. They voted in PMB and now they are regretting. Their clamor is an unacceptable clamour for a replacement. The game is on and they have exhausted their reserves, the match must complete it's full time.

You'd have thought Nigerians would have learnt their lesson by now.


A Yoruba was president for 8 years and there was no significant change in development in Yoruba land.


An Ijaw man was president for 6 years yet it took a Fulani man to even initiate the clean up of the oil spillage that has destroyed the habitat of the South-south.

The North has had four democratically elected heads of state from Prime Minister Tafawa Balewa, Alhaji Shehu Shagari, Umaru Yar'Adua, and now Buhari, yet the North is the poorest zone and least educated.

The Southeast produced the first president and has produced numerous Senate presidents, deputy Senate presidents and even vice President yet there's no significant change in the infrastructure of the Southeast.

Instead of clamoring for rotational government while not fight for regional government.

That's the only way Nigeria can develop.

meromero11:
Why must it stop now?
The rotation must go round the full circle. The only region left is the SE and the exact time provisioned by fate and destiny is 2023. The SE shall supply the very best to the country come 2023. We need brains now and not thieves or herders.

It can't go round. We have over 250 different ethnic groups in Nigeria. Multiply 250 by 8years and you get the reason why rotational presidency is silly.

The Igbos produced Nigeria's first president. I think that's good enough. Yorubas have also had only one President. That's also good enough.

When will Ebira, Itshekiri, Urhobo, Angas, Kanuri, Tehl, Mwaghavul, Berom, Tiv, Bini and all the other tribes also produce their own President?

Unless you're saying they are not relevant in Nigeria.

Oyindidi:
them for use our original leaf green

I can assure you majority don't know the difference.

Oyindidi:
Why them change the green to lemon?

Lemon green is also a type of green.

Paperwhite:
The government & its zombified followers think the worthy but greek gift June-12 realization gift is the final masterstroke.

Yorubas are not simpletons. We will take their gift and vote for whoever we feel is capable and there are like a hundred Yoruba Proverbs that we will use to back that up.

johnnyvid:
well i will tell you here that the yorubas are against pmb second term bid.

Oh I am full blooded Yooba. Oodua tokan tokan. And yes personally I am totally against PMB for 2019.

This administration is a disaster.

There's no justification for the Benue massacre, neither is there an explanation for his inability to prosecute corrupt officials especially as they've been brandishing a list of corrupt people upandan.

a 37 year old man in a corper role. nollywood sha

So? Doesn't that happen in Hollywood?

gratiaeo:
No Nigeria politician is clean including Tinubu your demi god

It must be a herculean task for you to use your brain.

Go through my posts and point out where I've ever praised Tinubu as non corrupt.

The problem with peeps like you is that your thinking is linear in nature. If it isn't this it must be that
There's no third option.

So because against Diezani and by extension Jonathan that means I'm pro Tinubu?

Mtscheeeew...

A lot of stolen money can't help him again.

Did he steal your father's money? Ode.

Anigreat:






Kemi Olunloyo was right after all.

That man looks like a ritualist

If I said the same about your mom will you be happy?

It doesn't cost anything to use the brain I assume you already have.

Aregbesola is no better. He should just keep kwayet.

Dezaiani's own is media trial, what buhari is known for

So she's innocent. I laugh in Igbo.

meromero11:
Brilliant and supported.
Am sure the SE will realize this and start early lobbying. 2023 will be the first time the slot falls perfectly on the SE in the power rotation arrangement. Mortgaging such opportunity to another fulani man will be a complete political disaster.

Power rotation must stop. Let the best man win. That's the way to move a nation forward and not a sense of entitlement.

People are worried how the Yorubas will vote come 2019.

If you are great, you are great. No one can take that from you.

Sorry, but I'm certain Buhari doesn't deserve a second term if only for the safety of lives and properties of the Benue people.

When it comes to fighting corruption and security of lives and properties Buhari is a big failure.

He's not fit to be president and I won't be voting for him.

meromero11:
I agree with you on Atiku, Buhari and all those old fellas. It is time for a new generation of young, resourceful and vibrant leaders to be given a chance to rule the country in 2023 starting with a SE presidency. Deepening the wounds of the past will never lead us to nationhood. 2023 will be the most appropriate time to consolidate on efforts at redressing the wrongs of marginalization. Those who voted for this current administration are attempting to replace them with another set of the same stock. No!!. The blunder has been committed and must be allowed to extinguish itself for us to have a clean start in 2023.

The Southeast is welcome to try for the presidency like all other ethnic groups in Nigeria.

They should be prepared to lobby other groups for support.

Come 2023, no one will be elected only because of their tribe.

If we know what's good for us, we should sweep out this old guard of non functioning kleptomaniacs and vote in someone responsible.

SamuelAnyawu:
My Candidate

Why am I not surprised?

If it isn't self defense it is murder.

I'll bet all those respondents above me didn't take the time to read the article. If they had they wouldn't be making noise at all.

Yorubas always balling.

Intellectualism over hooliganism.

Igbokwe is right. The Igbos have a lot to learn from the Yorubas.

IgweIgweIgwe:
I'll fold my arms and continue watching. Hope she's truly incorruptible

Better.

The only solution to all these is the dismemberment of Nigeria into its component parts.

Nigeria will always be bogged down by primal ethnic and religious sentiments.

IgweIgweIgwe:
You don't get the point, do you?
An incorruptible judge still wouldn't bite the fingers that put her there...
99% of our present and past leaders are not clean so if Saraki gets convicted, it wouldn't surprise me..

Says who? If an incorruptible judge won't bite the fingers that feed her then what makes her incorruptible?

You don't know exactly what she's going to do when she gets there but you have already concluded.

Just in case you aren't aware, the judge is not answerable to the president or whoever appointed her to that post. She's only answerable to the NJC.

Yes, this is Nigeria yet there's autonomy among the three arms of government.

And even if she's acting at the behest of the president its going to be impossible for her to convict an "innocent" Saraki.

Please can someone tell us exactly how much Abacha stole. Even if he sold Nigeria could he have been paid that much?

I'm waiting for Diezani's own recovery too. All these people with PhD in looting...

IgweIgweIgwe:
I don't understand
The fact that I'm not a gullible supporter of PMB makes me 'love corruption'?
Wow!!
I'm simply amazed by your level of naivety

Just look at yourself. Everybody is rejoicing that maybe, just maybe we might have an incorruptible judge for once in the nation's lifetime and here you are screaming Buhari upandan.

If truly Buhari placed her there to target Saraki, Saraki has nothing to fear if he's not guilty.

But I guess you missed that part.

As long as the person is against Buhari he's your hero, right? Talk about naïveté.
