An average yoruba doesn't care abt appointments, we only want Nigeria to be better. When our son was there, what did he do 4 u. If Nigeria changes 4 d best today, it is d southerners that will benefits most cos we r more educated n intelligent

CFCfan:
Yeah, he probably has an Italian mom, and was born in Italy

mekaboy:

Yes you are correct. Initially i said if anambra votes Ngige or obiano we have not voted wrongly. But as the elections draw near, i have been reading alot of propaganda from all parties, seeking to tarnish each others image.I also read alot of promises, including alot of free stuffs promised.

Finally i said to myself this is an election time, people will pretend to be saints, each time they appear before the media this time around they will be prepared. So i decided to investigate them when they were not all about politics, i wanted to know how they behave on a normal day. Because when they win, they will go back to being who they really are.

For this reason i sneaked up on them on youtube, to take a close look at their personality from the past. My primary objectives were

1,to know which of these men is capable of bringing foreign investment to Anambra state.

2, to know who was more eloquent and presentable as the next governor

3,to know who is a technocrat

4, to know who has more managerial ability, because governance requires using the little resource available to you and making the best use of it.

5, i also looked at the issue of integrity, who can be trusted among them? Not just by the people of anambra state, but people from other states and countries.

///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

When i dived into Youtube i first typed ifeanyi ubah , from the video he scored very low in my expectation for eloquence ( he was not so composed and fluent in his command of english )

Secondly, in the area of integrity he scored very low( he was accused of fraud and his statements were not pleasing). I would not trust him after watching the video and reading the comments on the page.

Thirdly, in the area of foreign investment, i dont think any body that watched his video will be interested in investing in a state he governs.

fourthly, the area of management, i dont think he will do so well judging from his own investment and the resources committed to him by others.

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

Then i put Ngige on my scale.

Is he eloquent and composed? yes he is.

Has he been tested ? yes, he tared roads and paid civil servants. Now if he did that out of free will or under pressure i cant tell.

Is he capable of bringing foriegn investors to the state ? The answer unfortunately is NO. Why do i say this? most foreign investors will always follow up and a persons profile, they want someone they can trust, someone who can stick to his part of an agreement. Ngige Rigged an election, to us it is nothing, but to the western world it means alot and his integrity will be in doubt.

I am not being sentimental or campaigning for anybody here, i am just being objective. You can see i am talking about yoruba party this or that. it is insignificant.

Can we trust Ngige ? The answer is NO . dont get sentimental here, lets be honest. Ngige agreed to rigging an election, that makes him a person of questionable character.Secondly, he agreed with Uba to give them a large percentage of anambra state allocation . He did not keep his part of the bargain . Am i saying he should have done that? No, but an agreement is an agreement whether good or bad. So it means he does not keep to his promise whether good or bad.

Now, people will say he is a hero, he saved anambra state from the uba godfathers . But the true question should be, what went wrong in their agreement? Trouble broke out when he failed to remit a certain amount to the godfathers. Now ask yourself, how much did he pay to them already before they started having issues? If the ubahs had accepted the amount he was remitting to their account, would there have been any problems?

Like i said earlier, governance is about managing the resources allocated to you and making the best use of it.

Can Ngige manage our resources ? Does he have the managerial skill required ? Has he been entrusted with anyone's resources in the past ? People will say he has managed anambra states resources in the past. But the question is, do you know how much he spent ? do you know how much was paid to the ubahs already before the problem? he did not finish his tenure in office and nobody can tell what happened.

He is not yet on the sit, he has no idea of how much we have in our account, and he is promising free Education. For someone who will manage resources to make such promises, it makes me question his motives and managerial ability.

Finally, He is separated, in the western world to be honest, nobody will vote a single separated man into office. Foreign investors put these things into consideration.

Don't sing hosana yet because this is just the beginning, by the time this is over, Amaechi and his lawmakers will be no where to be found. Ibori did more than this, we all knew how he ended up, Silva worked the same path, we all knew how it all ended. Sorry for Amaechi in Advance. Atiku even performed better than them all in his fight with Obasanjo, but at last we saw who laughs last.

Kobojunkie:

What a crock of Bull!!! I am not an Obasanjo fan - - -  not a fan of anyone, but I do urge we stop decieving ourselves with these silly stories. How can he be against Sharia when YOU, and YOUR FAMILY, and everyone else, ALLOWED it to be declared a part of our democracy? Look in your constitution  ---- yes, right in there. Sharia was made LEGAL and so how can Obasanjo go against that which you ALLOWED be made legal -- sanctioned by our democracy?

leosskull:

i swear, i miss the guts of former president olusegun obasanjo, if he was still the president boko haram for hide, arrant nonsense. our president is really messing me up,take these people down oga president!

Stop deceiving urself , OBJ only acted when it came to the Soft Southern Nigeria and middle belt[Benue/Plateau], He didnt raise a finger at the core troublesome north when they Sharianized Nigeria and sent the Miss World packing from Abuja, He only murmured dat it will die a natural death and as planned handed back power over to them according to agreement, Stop making him a lion, He ruled Nigeria when people's eyes started opening thereby facilitating some tough measures, Could OBJ have razed Sokoto or Kano to the ground like Odi if few policemen abi soldier were killed? HELL NO

I believed this rumour for a long time when I was a little boy!

Orikinla:

Most of those who voted for GEJ were I-D-I-O-TS, Tribalists and those who were afraid of the election of an incorruptible ex-military dictator.

You guyz are just talking non-sense this is religious belive and the rule only apply to muslims so why worry or the insult about, do you ever talk abt a thiev that was set ablaze instalty jst bcoz of #20 also.

Tell me what happen to Achan in the Book of Joshua? when he stole the spoils of Jericho?

StarBoard:

Amaechi is a South-South politician.

Where are the elders in this country? What will mr president be thinking now? He was fore-warned that he is incapable to lead this country. He rely on is good luck and declined the voice of wisdom.

noblezone:

I hope Gowon is in Plataeu State?
He should not hide in Abuja o.

He should go to Jos and "enjoy" the benefits of his "one" Nigeria.

This is just the beginning! The Jihardists will teach them that it is better to spend a nite with a snake than with an Huasa/Fulani Moslem.

honeric01:

You keep asking questions you should have known by now, GADDAFI planned to NATIONALIZE all the oil companies in Libya, thereby making the OIL companies serve his people first before any foreigner, 90% of the oil companies are from the west, so you can do the mathematics now.

He also said Africans should come together, have a common currency and a common goal too, these plans infuriated the slave masters which led to his blackmail and "forceful" removal through machinery who pretended to be Libyan people fighting for "freedom" most of these rebels are KNOWN Al quedda members, yet the west supported and used them because they serve their interest.

harakiri:

That's because human beings are always seeking a scape goat to blame for their insecurities! An igbo man will tell you that yoruba people are extremely dirty but I have seen igbo households that look like refuse dumps. A yoruba man will tell you that Igbo's are wicked and evil and yet, some of the heartless actions I've seen are commited by yorubas. An igbo man will tell you that yorubas are betrayers and not to be trusted and yet[b], its the same people that frustrated Alex Ekweme from becoming president and preferred Obasanjo (a serving convict) to their fellow ma[/b]n. Yorubas will tell you igbos are greedy businessmen who love to cheat in business and yet, if you go to Owode-Onirin and tell them you want to sell your bmw X6 which you bought for N14million and has bashed headlights, the yoruba buyers will offer you N70,000 as their best offer! What am I trying to say? It all boils down to people blaming others for their short comings and insecurities. This has been a major factor in wars and ethnic clashes e.g the ife and modakeke fracas (yoruba neighbours slaughtering their fellow brothers like rams) and the umuleri and aguleri blood bath (fellow igbo neighbours trying to exterminate each other). It's that simple!

lagcity:

what does this have to do with anything? if ogonis and yorubas are killed too, does that mean they were made by gowon?

lagcity:

leave Ikweres alone. They are ikwere, dammit!
