Please stop posting this OP . Lemme enjoy my Sunday abeg. The news is infectious to the soul The level of corruption has never been this worse in the history of Nigeria.

I knew Femi gbajabiamila was laying empty threats that day, looking so serious as if he was clean himself. Akpabio couldn't have been lying. That case would eventually be squashed.

BewareOf419:
But why is Corona Virus killing Muslim prominents in Nigeria than Christians

Not true. My advice to buhari, whoever knows him should tell him to stop hosting people for now. He should also stop traveling overseas or within the country. He should ask his family members too to do same. He should also wear face mask and not give in to those advising him against it. Covid-19 is real. I know of 2 pastors who contracted it. The issue of church reopening is in the hands of God. We need God now than we've ever done

Esseite:
Please sell to the cronies we accused Atiku he would sell to... it's way better than incurring losses in this magnitude.

406bn/475 (current dollar rate) = $854.7m

Chinese debt with sovereignty at stake - $500m
Nigerian current Debt to revenue - 90%..
Poverty capital of the world..
4million internally displaced..
35m unemployed working population...

When we are ready, we would elect capable individuals.

you couldn't have said it better. Nnpc is a pool of scam. Those benefiting from this fraud know themselves and would never allow it to be privatised. When Obasanjo came, he advised all our refineries be sold to ensure productivity. When buhari came, he said he wouldn't privatise it rather, would carry out TAM on all of them. At some point, kachikwu said they could operate up to 90% capacity. The next thing heard of the refineries was sabotage, that pipelines carrying crude to refoneries were saidnto have been vandalised. The following year, they resumed TAM. All the amount wasted since 2015 on TAM is over 1 billion dollars with nothing to show for it. Privatising refineries and scrapping of NNPC will hurt them. They'd never allow it see the light of the day because some of them have private refineries abroad.

Still blame it on Jonathan who left the governmemt over 5 years ago

Now we have seen susbsidy isn't a scam, as one of the lies they told Nigerians to ride onto power. TAM in our refineries na yearly affair since 2015. Another area the nnpc used to scam Nigerians. Yes, they still import Petroleum products.

They've not fulfilled one single promise made before presidential elections in 2015. Whoever differs should tell me something.

The Oba of Benin, Omo N’ Oba N’Edo Uku Akpolokpolo, Oba Ewuare N’Ogidgan 11, yesterday thanked President Muhammadu Buhari for endorsing and presenting his party flag to the All Progressives Congress’ (APC) candidate in the Edo State governorship election, Pastor Osagie Ize- Iyamu, insisting that the Benin Palace remains neutral in the politics of the state. GBAM!

What a wise monarch. He insisted benin Palace remains neutral in the politics of the state. people were busy fiighing here and shouting endoresememt without reading the piece.
Meanwhile the wise oba knew what he was doing.

Live long Oba.

Just as the OP has rightly said, it's his opinion so I respect it. I'm from yoruba side in my state eve though we have our dialect.

Tinubu had no single pedigree or attributes of leadership. Can anyone in his right sense compare tinubu with papa awo?

Awo was a sage, tinubu is a thief
Awon was an elderstatesman tinubu is a thug breeder ( boba o pa, bioba o buu lese)

Awolowo was true to his word and cause, not minding whether people like his ideals or not. Tinubu deceived many yorubas and of course Nigerians by chanting restructuring during the pdp administration. The moment he formed the apc, the song vanished from his mouth. The one known to be protesting against perceived injustice suddenly became opposed to similar protests because he's in the apc fighting for a ticket.

Awo was a man who walked his talk while tinubu because of his selfishness, always flip-flops.

If tinubu eventually becomes president ( which is unlikely), Nigeria would be infiltrated by corruption and thuggery. People will carry gun on a broad day light and be shooting people. People should visit lagos and what oluomo boys are doing during elections. Buhari's government would be a tip of the iceberg. Yoruba should rather look inwards for a better representation. I dare all his supporters say otherwise about tinubu. Where's restructuring today? Where is federalism? Where's rule of law? All he knows how to do best is bribe judges so he could have his way in all cases. We have not forgotten the certificate saga when he was governor. I marvel each time some people come out to defend this man. Bullion vans were ushered into his house and all he could say was, it's his money. In a sane country, he would have long been forgotten. Tinubu is only popular in some parts of the south west. The oyo people have understood him better as a slave driver. They are wiser now. He would donate lagos money for election and enslave the governor of that state forever. Every contract must be decided at his desk. He would be the one to collect taxes via alphabeta in that state and that's what he's planning to do in edo but we are smarter. No good leader behaves this way. Tinubu is an inconsistent man. Attackers are welcome on board

Tflex01:
Only in your dream will APC lose Edo.

Oga, I'm not bragging I'm a nominal member of the apc but not a card carrying member its the realty on ground. I voted oshiomohle twice just so you know. Obaseki he's condemning today was the brain box of his 2 terms. Oshiomohle also did worse to the then pdp law makers. Check it. Oshomole isn't learned. Na Labour man. But because we saw some element of sincerely in him which he had proven, we decided to vote him. All the developments under his government were brought about by obaseki and ize-iyamu self knows this. Oshomole went to lagos to meet this man in his ikoyi firm , Afrinvest Ltd to help him. Now, Oshomole wanted to become the godfather he once preached against and a proof people can change anytime. If not for his selfishness ize-iyamu he is now selling to us can't be on the top 10 list of aspirants in edo apc. Na una this arrangee dey shark We will ensure obaseki wins again. After that, we may return to the apc, no leele

Tflex01:
Tinubu is a special breed of human.

The only person that when he talks, the whole country will spend several weeks analyzing the contents of his words.

Twale to the jagaban!


Btw, who else noticed that Wike doesn't attack Tinubu aggressively the way he talks to others

why did he run to abuja after the rumour that baba would not relinquish power come 2023? Why was he afraid of elrufai altercations? Baba sef was shocked that day he suddenly showed up in aso vila to confirm the rumour. How I love buhari but oshiomohle had destroyed the party in my state already, the party which made him. I wish he had allowed obaseki to remain in the apc. It was the greatest mistake he made. Apc just handed over the state to the pdp on a platter of gold. Only in their dream would apc win edo.

nairavsdollars:
No man lives forever...including you OBJ

tell him. He's even more vulnerable to covid-19 which killed buruji. How could somebody who claimed to have been battling diabetics for over 3 decades be talking bad of a departed soul, at his age? He's real agbaaya. He should visit a public place once like uselu market or idumota of lagos without wearing a mask na. Let's see if he would escape it

What a bad comment from a former president. Useless buffoon. Agbaaya. You never can tell what people would also say behind you when your time is up

The first 2 comments are the most unbiased comments I've seen on the political threads on NL. Keep it up guys. We are getting mature gradually with our comments.

Skepticus:
I didn't know his dad is late now. At the time he came to the US from Greece along with his younger brother, Thanasis, his dad and older brother were back in Nigeria.

yea. He died in the US

Skepticus:
His dad never did.

Greek citizenship laws require that non-greek names be "hellenized" before being granted full citizenship. Hence, the "Adetokunbo" was spelt "Antetokoumpo" to reflect this.

Dude is proud of his Nigerian roots. The dad lives in Lagos.

i know. His dad isn't living in lagos, his dad is late. Giannis is my friend on twitter

Nickisindigo:
No

yes. He's my friend on twitter. He plays for milwaukee bucks. If you're in doubt, look at him very well and Google it for the look comparison. Even in that 3rd picture, bucks was written on his chest

In the 3rd picture were 2 Americans of yoruba descent competing Adebayo and Giannis Adetokunbo of milwaukee bucks, who's dad changed his name to Antetokounmpo.

TANTUMERGO007:
Not a time to mourn a criminal and a drug baron, may his soul not rest in peace if he was indeed a criminal

i think Tinubu was the oga in the game before he joined politics.

Anyway, RIP to him

Igbochief001:
U don't have to defend everything ...now see the rubbish u wrote

Edo people I know are one of the most confident people in Nigeria .... bringing Tinubu is a mistake ask any ede person go to Twitter ...it's a mistake

Tinubu got this one wrong accept the fact

i like what you just said, edo people are one of the confident people and you can't say anything less. We arent hiding it. Obaseki is a large family in edo and they supported the candidates of their choice with some going for obaseki and some for ize-iyamu with nobody intimidating anyone and thats how we do our things. Oshomole's wants to change the status quo but he's too small. We are not like yorubas in lagos who would hide their heads for supporting or not supporting a candidate so that one man wouldn't send thugs to kill them, YOLO so wetin you dey fear and thats why tinubu can be so powerful among them. He can't try such in edo.

Anyone can ask oshiomohle who didn't have a kobo to bribe us with but we voted him knowing fully well our state is a predominantly a pdp state. All you see between obaseki and iyamu is a clear proof we are not cowards. Las las, we go still be friends. Oshiomohle did worse to the pdp law makers during his tenure. History can't lie. people shouting trash here are not from edo so they're lost in history. He retired godfathers in edo with the support of the electorate. All I can say is, let the election be free and fair. Any imported thugs sighted snatching ballot box or caught with fake materials will have himself to blame, even in his next life. Vote any candidate of your choice and let the electorate choose their next governor. Peace must continue to reign in our land

TheSTreetman:
The other thread na Dog get work, this one na Cat dey retire from work while we humans in Nigeria dey look for work.

This life no Balance for Nigerian.

blame it on the leaders whom some blind guys are supporting for wasting the generation of vibrant Nigerian youths. Many of them are due martiage but still being fed by same parents who are supposed to be reaping their efforts by now.

ThatFairGuy:
Joe Biden we know, the next President of America President.

dem no dey argue am naw. Every American pre election forecast always comes out real. Last night's forecast favoured Biden. I was amazed when I saw trump's pre-election forecast based on the people's opinion polls which showed trump was leading with a low margin. trump beat hillary as shown in the forecast which still came to pass. But for naija, na do or die and hate politics we dey practice which we are seeing in edo presently and we claim to be copying American style of democracy. They should please allow peace to reign in our state and stop intimidating us with security operatives. We go come out and vote no matter what. imported thugs be warned

Focusmind:
I feel for young girls from poor homes. Things that are supposed to be of necessity. Don't be surprise that some can't even afford tissue paper for their cycle.

There are some ghettos you see and you imagine the kind of hygiene and sanitation they will apply in their toilets. Young and adolescent girls suffers a lot in that kind of places.

One international NGO invited me to be part of team to carry out evaluation work on the effect of poverty and conflict on adolescent girls. But the location of the assignment made me not to participate even though the pay was ok.

Girls from poor background deserves monetary or in kind assistant in seeing off their cycles

This is the sanest and most enlightening comment I've read here. Others are trash.

Poverty had led many girls into what they naturally don't deserve. Men could manage but ladies can't. You abuse them of their cycles and same you would dip your rod into them join as a guy. This isn't fair. Ladies spend more

DrFunmisticGlow:
it is.

ProfAmaben:
Tinubu is an hopelessly corrupt individual. As a southerner, I would forever prefer that the Arewa keep ruling us rather than the Yorubas. The Yoruba people don't regard others in the South, they always claim that they are wise by pitching tents with the Arewa.

No Igbo presidency, no Yoruba presidency, let's all continue to remain in bondage.

this won't help us

No fulani, I repeat, no single fulani can be president in Nigeria without the support of yorubas. Check it from independence and what they always get in return is betrayal. No coups had taken place in Nigeria without yorubas' involvement and playing a key role but severely.Obj plotted buhari coup against shagari, babangida coup was planned by him. He tried it during abacha days but failed and abacha picked him. Somehow, his loyalists killed abacha and got him out to be president. We sef wan commot. On South south country we stand. I hope yorubas would stop supporting the fulanis and say they too are going . I know this would still happen but when, I don't know bit that's when they're tired of being betrayed and that would be the end of nigeria

If you want to get any Nigerian in any election, tell them you'd build a castle in the sky and all of them would live in it. Tell them every Nigerian would be given 100k yearly for free if they vote you in power. Tell them you'd turn Nigeria into an early paradise in one year. You don win be that. But in your mind, you know how to deal with them.

In Buhari's mind, he would he saying, see these mumu dictating what I'd do to me make I enter first, na to finish my agenda wey I start in 1983 which led to my ouster. Una go see things. Whatever you say you want, I go say yes, yes and yes.

Fear fulani. At the eleventh hour, they would betray you. Awolowo's treatment ought to have taught our southern politicians a lesson. I pity tinubu.

Some Nigerian won't see anything bad about this . Rule of law and human rights are lacking in this govt

Racoon:
Guess Oshiomole didnt commit the same impeachable offense during his own time when he did exactly the same things that is replaying out now?

Tinubu is not talking about all the illegalities including the abuse of the rule by Bubu that he is allegedly hoping to succeed.The problem with our politics is, it's only right whenever it suit our political interests.

how our people support evil. I remember oshiomohle vs pdp lawmakers back then. What goes around comes around. I wonder where the bullion man was hiding during this time. He was the ACN party leader back then . Tif tif pipo den. Whether they like it or not, obaseki would do 2nd term. The lawmakers illegal moves is the last tool the apc can use and they've failed. I hate injustice. If we could support oshiomohle to do 2 terms when he didn't have anything to offer us, why not obaseki?

Asthma can be so annoying and life threatening, makes you feel uncomfortable and not being able to live the kind of life you wished.

Yeah, I have been there, I am 25 and I have had asthma since 12years old..so I know how it feels.

The truth is that there is no drug that eradicate asthma completely immediately and instantly. But you can get your total freedom from asthma gradually if you are consistent with some things to be doing and supplements I would be showing you..

Nigeria oil belongs to this 2 and a few others.

i no wan talk anything before lai muhamed would come after me say na hate speech. Niger deltans dey sleep. What they give us is crumbs and they take the lion's share yet, we are hailing them. They still come to us to terrorise us join on our farmland. I hope our leaders would wake up to reject this intimidatation someday. nobody is saying they shouldnt get oil well as nigerians but the intimidation must stop

Oil money sweet.

You're height doesn't determine the size of your gbola. Researches have shown. She's wrong

Obaseki is overwhelmingly loved by genuine Edo masses..

power belongs to the people,..not Godfathers
