OredoPikin:
Desmond can win but he must invest heavily in logistics and he must have trusted people all over the polling units
He must be ready to mount cameras in all the polling units and station people there.
Thats the only way

So is children will vote for him right?

Saturnalia:
Yes he will win because you’re one of the delegates that will ensure his victory.

Shebi the “Overhead Bridge” he built for his constituency too is one of his selling points.

I was using that bridge like 30yrs ago and still the same Desmond came to commission. Wooden. SMH

Pep is the greatest.
He is the Messi of managers.
Setting the records so high that people in the future will think it's AI
In Barcelona, he won 14 trophies in 4 years.
Then nonsense English fans said he can't do such in EPL
The Messi of managers came to Epl and turned it into farmers league by going treble twice and winning the Epl 4 times in a row

That thing people were saying he can’t do it in England is mostly common with Nigeria people. Now they are not saying anything and saying he spent too much. Abeg, Liverpool and Chelsea and even Arsenal self should show us what they got with all the money spent last season. I think only arteta is using the opportunity well even tho we are still hoping for the EPL and champions league. I believe Arsenal already got the league

Shikena:
He did well then he started crumbling. Ferguson rebuilt his team multiple times and even won with kids. He doesn't have to replace a goalkeeper or full back multiple times with fat checkbook until it's right. That approach was not allowed at Bayern Munich and Pep couldn't weave any magic.

They are both great.

Go and check fergi record of transfer and compare with other clubs during that time ok

Daguccizgreat:
No one is arguing with you boy, am only educating you on the game of football. Pep only run to clubs with large squard and even with everything available at his disposal at Bayern, he could not play even UCL final in 3 Years

So moriho with the same best squad played in the final with Chelsea and Madrid. You can now see that you are the one need to be schooled

ARISHEM:
Man city should sit down and think deeply on this decision they are about to make.
Allowing him to go and replace him with the Chelsea Mascara might be dangerous decision.

He must be eyeing the Madrid job

Guardiola decision not man city and he can not take Madrid job, he can still go back to Bayern but I think he might want to try Italy or the Spain international team. Madrid is a no no for him

Princejuddy:
Arteta will turn epl to farmers league

Now that his boss is leaving. But Chelsea need to wake up and seize this opportunity also

reddingtonblack:
That's the biggest lie in the universe, cos even in freetown their is no free meal

And u are here typing all these and you say is a lie. You see the contradiction now

Lamasta:
Some of you arguement is laughable, do you know how much Arteta alone has spent since he took over at Arsenal what has he won to show the outrageous budget spent on the club? I pray they win a trophy this time to justify all the money invested on him, Chelsea bought first team and second team what did they win? rather they are a shadow of themselves, Liverpool spent over 500m on players this season what was their achievement with it Its one thing to buy its another thing to manage and get result and that's where a good manager comes like Pep.....

If you are good at what you do you will always excel with or without noise

Many of them don’t know how much fergi ruse to spent on players back then, Man U was the highest spender cus they got the money. Those people don’t know anything about managing a team. Liverpool and Chelsea that spent money last season, where is the result. As u said, is one thing to spend and it is another thing to manage it well which made guardiola the great one. Let’s see how maresca will manage the spending also bcs for me, he can’t archive that much and he will end up getting sacked by the club

elder1002:
The best there was and there is

4 premier league in a row

Set the bar so high that you need to be consistent to win the league cup.

Master tactician and strategist

Converts average players to play one of the beautiful football ever seen in premier league


The best manager there ever was in premier league.

Pep




*Why Pep edges Fergie in the first 10 years*

Look at it straight up: *20 trophies in 10 years vs 6*. That’s not a small gap.

*1. He won more, and he won bigger*
Pep’s haul at City from 2016-2026:

*6 Premier Leagues,
1 Champions League,
5 League Cups,
3 FA Cups,
3 Community Shields,
1 UEFA Super Cup,
1 Club World Cup*.

That’s 4 titles in a row from 2021-2024 – no English club has ever done that. 100 points, 98 points, 93 points seasons. He didn’t just win, he broke the ceiling of what winning looks like in the PL.

Fergie in his first 10 years at United 1986-1996:
*3 PLs,
1 FA Cup,
1 League Cup,
1 Cup Winners’ Cup*.

Respect to the rebuild, but the output isn’t close.

*2. He did it in a tougher league*

Pep’s City had to beat peak Klopp Liverpool, this Arsenal team, and a Chelsea side spending crazy money just to get to May with the title. Every game in the PL now is a fight. Fergie’s early dominance came before the money flooded in and before every mid-table team had a tactical coach and data team.

*3. He changed the game, not just his club*
Go to any academy or watch any PL game now and you’ll see Pep’s fingerprints. Inverted fullbacks, controlled possession, pressing traps, false nines. Managers across Europe copied him because it worked. Fergie was a master man-manager and could adapt, but he didn’t set the tactical blueprint for the next 20 years.

*4. He delivered in Europe when it mattered*

City’s first ever Champions League in 2023, plus 6 straight semis in 10 years. The UCL now is a minefield – every knockout tie is against another billion-pound squad. Fergie didn’t even get to a UCL final in his first 10 years.

*5. He kept it going without falling off*
Pep rebuilt that City squad 3 times. KDB aging, Aguero leaving, Cancelo drama, still they win. The system outlives the players. Fergie’s first 10 years was about building the culture. Once it was built, the trophies came in waves. Pep had the waves immediately.

---

Fergie built United from the ground up and that deserves respect. But if we’re talking pure results, dominance, and impact on the game in the first 10 years, *Pep’s numbers and influence are on another level*.

20 trophies. 4 in a row. Changed how football is played. That’s the argument.

Convert average player to great player means you know football bcs most people don’t know that and they keep arguing that those players were world class players before he got them, why some don’t even know when and where he got them from and start calling them the best forgotten that guardiola made them.

About the fergi competition, pep did it when premier league is more competitive and clubs were recruiting more professional coaches and players. Who could believe that fergi only won 2 champions league after so many years with Man U. The different is clear, pep is the real boss

reddingtonblack:
As long as i am not asking people to point Gun to the heads of those supporting Baba sope regime

One thing i won't take is Cunn me into silence, We must speak truth to ourselves and continue to call out the urchins among us that support what is anti democracy because of selfish interest/gain

I dont preach violence Buh if eye do muccus we must show the eye muccus not good

It’s a free world

Checkwell:
He shoukd retire. His greed is too much. Leave field go rest. You don old.

He’s trying to build a record that no man can break

Salowise:
E tire me, my high school girlfriend since she got married i start treating her as married woman, no chat aside greetings. Even when she said she misses me i just had to jump over it and ask her of her kids. When she visited her family, she initiated a sit out, but bro why would i hang out with a married woman even though her intentions are pure. Chike should be ashamed of himself, there are lots of single ladies yet he chooses to have an affair with a married woman.

Wise one. They say prevention is better than cure, and that is exactly what u did. Just avoid the closeness because it is what the devil uses to hypnotize you

edogu:
VDM: For this act, Chike will miss out on juicy invitations like marriage ceremonies.

Women: We won't allow that to happen.

Men to women: Let’s see. Una don sponsor any marriage before?

No man will be happy to invite anyone whose stories are all over the social media for sleeping with a married woman. The only way for him is to organise a tour for his teeming female supporters.

So, any woman that request for chikke as a surprise gift on her wedding day or birthday means what?

reddingtonblack:
I dont hold brief for desmond ediot becos he is a beneficiary of the system witch hunting him now, someone was also put down for him

However was i find very diaturbing is People like you, yarimo, richtaiwo that support this barbaric & anti democratic system of " Baba Sope" .. Instead of consensus or direct primary ... We now have old men in the party imposing candidate as consensus

NO matter your rank, your performance... Some old men can just gather n kick anyone out of an elective post, shebi we saw what happened to Ambode

From the APC primaries so far.... Why should any sane youth say that's the party he loves, where is the internal democracy .. Some old men are Alpha & Omaga they decide it all

Shame on every youth supporting APC, look across the primaries its appalling

Let’s those supporting them continue and let’s those that want a better Nigeria do the right thing by voting them out and defending your vote. That’s life for you, you win some, you lose some

Macphenson:
Desmond Idiot. He called us children when he was chopping..Now he wants "children" to hear his matter

That’s why he is confident, because he knows you people are his children and u all will still support him because surulere people are children as he mentioned

oluxy:
.

Madam Barakat, it's ok as a woman to think Elliott backout or steps down but this is politics, if others back off or if all aspirants back off then our politics would look childs' play.

I'm against Elliot contesting again because he's over ambitious and he should be ok with 3 terms.

I wish you best, I want you to emerge, sincerely, I do.

Come Wednesday, I would be among those who would say to you congratulations ok.

She is saying that because some other contestant back off for Desmond too. It is the system of the APC party. If anyone don’t like it, you can use another political party as the guy that won the counselorship election under PDP did during the last election in Lagos. The guy won bcs he was loved by his people because of what he did in his first tenure. The only candidate that won under another party that is not APC

ddippset:
You leave the people that are trying to remove him (Tinubu and Gbajabiamla) and you're calling Desmond greedy and selfish!

Tinubu has practically procured Lagos for 30 years,,
Gbajabiamla has been around for 20 years.

Yet it is Desmond that is greedy and selfish!

How you people use your heads is beyond me.

Those days has gone past and what did Desmond do for his people during that 12yrs? For your information, tinubu did not spend 12yrs has governor neither gbaja and Desmond did not fight for the seat, he was also imposed. If he is confidence of himself and still want to be in that seat, he should use another party platform and not APC. Two wrongs don’t make it right. Now u see that u are the one not using your head

Ofunaofu:
Signs and wonders courtesy of baba sope politics of imposition

He got there through the same baba sope platform

HIGHESTPOPORI:
Use and dumped.

Not at all, he had 12yrs and that was more than enough and he didn’t even perform

Willy2025:
This is tragic. I think we need to activate our internal security without waiting for the government and confront these Fulanis who are collaborating with the indigenes to wreck havoc.

If you try it, the police will arrest you. That is to tell you that the government are involve one way or the other

Another thing is, Nigerians should not allow that Obasa to go too far bcs that was the same mistake we did in the past that put us in this mess we are today. People that don’t have the masses at heart will be getting favored from their God father and Nigerians will be the one to end up facing the pain. Desmond is also an example, he should go and rest. The 12yrs money is enough for him

Eba50:
This ones na scapegoat. Ondo state c.p wey dey recive 2m as bribe from one office per month, them just transfer am yesterday to police h,q. After e cast

Imagine. They know what they are doing. Even the oga at the top self is not left out. Na who dem catch be thief. We just pray we don’t fall victim of these uniform men

LibertyRep:
Cut the waste in government

Cut the waste in government

Don't borrow the future .

Only if the World Bank and other lenders will listen.

They are only doing there job in as much as Nigeria have not passed the limit to borrow. You people should hold your government accountable and stop begging other people to come and fight for you. If you are not ok with today’s government, vote them out and stop embarrassing the country just like your political leaders

Hezzyluv:
Is it 30k unlimited each month? Is the speed ok?

Yes, the speed is ok and you can never finish it in a month, so it just as if it is unlimited. We are over 25 person on my own, even those I don’t know sit outside my house in front using it. Lagos is the location

Oluwatobiloba07:
One question I will first ask you,

Immediately you saw the webs, what did Holy Spirit speak to your mind.

If nothing I'll advise you to go into prayer of enquiry for 3 days with the Lord to know how to challenge and take dominion over it.

Else you might just be praying with lack of understanding and doing things in the wrong way.

Another solution is to go to your pastor for more clarity and prayers

You have said the most important thing, God always gives solution immediately after revelation most times, is just that most of us don’t pay attention. You need spiritual cleansing in that house and anoint the house

Agugbadin:
Maybe is because they don't know their businesses or the source of their billions you are talking about.The one on the list are the ones that their businesses can be tracked checked and identified. Evans the billionaire kidnapper made his money from kidnapping, do you expect his name to make the list. Land grabbers in FCT can't make such list even though they are millionaires.

Tiktok life style don enter their head. Everybody that flaunt on TikTok is a billionaire to them

muyico:
Lagos state
supposed to top the list

With the fraudulent money right? Lagos is now flooded with yahoo boys and drug kingpin

SmartPolician:
By and large, Nigerians are not good people.

For us to sustain this country for decades and not make it work shows who truly are.

You are right. It really shows who we are

SmartPolician:
Lagos is so messed up that Desmond Eliot cannot aspire for higher positions unless one man okays it. People who call this democracy need psychiatric evaluation for obvious reasons

You are talking about a political party, is APC the only political party in Nigeria? At list a pdp councilor won in the last election when APC refused him ticket. Is about the people and not the party. The problem is that most of these people are not willing to do anything for the people, they are just going there to steal the money and that’s why they are using APC platform which will give them easy access to victory. He should try another political party if he is sure of the people’s vote for him. Greedy human being

Christ4ever:
It started Yesterday. I thought i was running mental. I had to check and recheck. I didn't save the guys number.

And it's a business user who posts several pictures of products daily.
