How many of this Arsenal players will get a game a season in this Bayern team? Its sunny Bayern a given at least a minute with the ball before any Arsenal player jug come close, hence they have time in the world to think with no pressure at all. Any team can play better under this sort of marking.

slimghost: APGA has fantastic grassroot structure in Ebonyi and Abia state. go and do your research. Nobody sold APGA to PDP, what Obi is doing now is making sure that we are considered relevant in the scheme of things. Of course APGA is not strong enough right now to win a presidential election, so what is Obi doing now? He is making sure they know how decisive APGA is to their plans while he gradually makes the party a regional power. Am sorry if you cant see the bigger picture.

How many elections or selection have they won in both Ebonyi/Abia? Doesn't grass root translate deep seated voting power? Or what is the meaning of grass root support without with anything to show that it exist?

slimghost: Afam you are wrong! Do you think joining APC makes APGA stronger? Matter of fact, that singular action will be the end of the party. So just because Peter Obi doesn't believe in propaganda and noise making makes him laid back? poor poor analysis. FYI, most of the top guns in APGA are loyal to him .eg

Senator Chris Anyanwu
Ambassador Bianca Ojukwu
Senator Chuma Nzeribe
Hon Uche Ekwunife
Dora Akunyili and so many many others.

APGA stands a better chance of progression under Peter Obi than that of the erratic and noise making Rochas.

How many of these people you mentioned believed that Peter Obi won the election, when he was in court in those days?
Which of them was in APGA 18 months ago? How will you guarantee that they will be there next week?
I don't know why you guys fight over people whose only success of food on the table is politics-No Nigerian politician stay in party where he has no stake of some sort that is very personal.

backtosender: Okorocha is embarrassing igbo people that his head is as empty as fish tank

Did Okorocha confide in you that he joined politics because of Igbo people?

slimghost: When it suits them, they come out with stuffs like "one Nigeria", "lets leave tribal sentiment out and vote the perfect man in(their tribal man of course), and then we stupidly accept their hand of friendship. When they now have power, they immedialetly let us know that its "all man for himself" and that "we cant be trusted". Well someone should take this message to APC abi OPC, "we are wiser now".

That is true. Its on record that Yoruba never vote for any ticket in Nigerian election without their kinsman being part of it. If they really mean business with this new alternative called APC, I want a ticket of Ibibio/Nupe, Igala/Igbo, Gwari/Fulani tickets etc. Why must it be North with Fashola?
I wonder if there is a ticket without s Yoruba in it, if the applause will remain the same? I may be proven wrong, and I live to see it happen.

Bliss4Lyfe: Okorocha & Umeh have allowed demselves to be used to legitimizing Tinubu and Buhari venture with seemingly APGA approval.

This is a total betrayal of their cause and if not careful, dey will soon find demselves endorsing Buhari ticket for President.

Betrayal of who exactly? When they joined, who did they betrayed. I don't understand all this fuss.

slimghost: My sister you get the point! Am waiting to see how APC will win Anambra state. Igbos stand to gain nothing from this alliance of desperadoes. Obi has endeared himself to all right thinking Igbos for keeping APGA out of this hopeless alliance.

I can actually see that happening. Remember that in 2010 Ngige came very close despite the fact that Obi rely totally on Ikemba support and nothing else. Minus Ikemba today to spoon fed him, I can see that happening, for sure.

nedufantasy: Okorocha is a political womanizer.from anpp to pdp,from pdp to apga,nw from apga to apc.he wants to become d president but it aint easy.no wonder BABA IYABO(obj) described him as a failure

That the only way in the Nigerian politics of chair dance. If he is still with his number one party, do you think he will be the chairman of Ideato local council today, let alone the governor of Imo?

Billyonaire: All these warriors are battling for the Soul of the Nation and exploit of our natural resources. Something tells me that APC will be worse than PDP, if given a chance. Tufiakwa!!!

So for the first time, you are telling us that PDP is bad, only that the other side maybe worse?
Then you got nothing to worry about, as you are all use to badness, what the worst that can happen with a worse version?

Bliss4Lyfe: I don't see anything good comin out of APC.

Legitimizing Tinubu and Buhari venture with seemingly APGA approval is a total sell out.

APGA would have been stronger as the middle ground for both parties to negotiate with.

Nobody will vote Buhari, GEJ has incumbent advantage and David Mark has an all inclusive appeal across regions.

Your first comment is it your wishes or fact based?
Your second comment, how can an organisation of thousands of people be a venture of two people? They must be super human!
Your second comment, if Rochas and those that think like him leaves and join APC, then Obi and those that also think like him has all the coast cleared for them to prove the former wrong by winning Imo for a start for APGA. Why this people always emotional over their personal enterprises called politics, I don't know.
Your last comment, are you speaking for yourself or your family?

[quote author=Itoroetti ]Okoroacha has always been an opportunist.in 2003,he went and contested presidential election in ANNP,when he could not succeed,he left for PDP where obj gave a life line of political appointment,thereafter,he left for APGA and immediately wanted to become d sole leader of APGA.now he has moved to APC(armour personnel carrier) with d sole aim of becoming the president of naija.it won't work.[/quote]Which politician anywhere in the world isn't an opportunist? I will like to know that one.

mohammad11: Get it right, i nw that almost all Nigerian politicians are after Lust for power and GEJ wasn't the first to make such promise...

Not almost but all politicians and not only in Nigeria but the whole world. If you have no lust for power, why are you into politics?

john Kuffour of Ghana seems to grace every occasion going now in Nigeria. He may not be clean after all, when you fraternize with Nigerians on a daily basis.

Techwriter: Cynicisms like this are the reasons many remain stubborn even when God wants to speak to them thru events. When rapture happens people left will also dismis it as normal. May God deliver u

God want to speak to you through the death of a Nollywood director, you don't know his health history? Some of you needs more than help.
As we speak people are dying left-front and right worldwide, if that is news for you.

By the way, there is no such thing in medical science as after a brief illness, unless you were chopped down by a car and die immediately from your injuries.

In a country where being obese is a measure or an evidence of good living, when people die unexpected by lay man's eyes, you said its God saying something.
Many Nigerians are like walking corpses without knowing or any care in the world. People live all their lives with chronic heart conditions without knowing it.
Then, If you are unfortunate to have a friendly drink with them in the evening and they went to bed and their heart finally gave up and they are found dead in the morning, you are in serious trouble, as you are accused of killing the person with some juju. Even the so called educated class will be in the forefront of the accusation.

Gosh! Madam. Jesus Christ must be really jealous now that you beat his record coming back from the dead after 3 days by an outstanding 4 more extra days. Up you!
By the way, Lazarus we were told lost everything, but you gain a billionaire mansion for free from the tax payers at your resurrection. Quite not the same Madam. Don't make Lazarus vex.
Finally, how stupid can you get admitting acquiring properties by proxy in public. Abati and Okupe must be sh.ting themselves when they heard her say that her friend tried to sell her properties, because they knew she has committed verbal suicide.

Well, as they say-There is always two side to every coin.
Although Jonathan and his foot soldiers has the knack of denying even what they said before you, like his wife was on vacation for a deserved rest and today his wife told us that she was sick in Germany and that she died and was resurrected after 7 days, thereby beating even Jesus record of 3 days.
Now the ball has been passed back to you Bababgida (Toad-eyez) Aliyu.
We await fro your kindly reply.

mohammad11: That why a Question can't get a particular answer in Nigeria...
I guess he promise the other states/regions the same.He would probably regrets he made that promise.That's what Lust of power leads to.

Name the politician that is in politics not because of the lust power? I bet you are one of those 1 million man match for Abacha for life in those days?
Suddenly everybody got an opinion about democrazy.

icon aus: senseless comment - who is running nigeria . - what ever made super eagles to win emanated from government transformation agenda; that transformation fisrt surfaces with Super eagles success while other will follow

Don't always start with calling another opinion senseless, just because our opinion varies, that is not a sign of maturity and you made no attempt to convince me, only that I am senseless.
Where was the transformation agenda when the team didn't qualify last time around? Its okay to support a politician, but its also alright to use your brain to think when mauling over issues.
Super Eagle has won the cup when Shagari and Abacha were both in charge, I had mentioned previously, so was it down to their lucks then?

Egypt probably won the damn cup, by half a dozen time with their dictatorial leader Mubarrak in charge, was it down to his luck or is the the good organisation of Egyptian football, good manager and dedicated players?

Sometimes it worries me how some of you thinks, in a bid to justify your support for a cause or a politician. Always has an open mind on issues and don't make yourself a prisoner of your own set/programmed reasoning.

eggheaders: you brought up the list of corrupt people and listed yorubas alone.I guess that not tribalistic.I was brought up to see people as human first before any afflictions they may choose.but your folks change all those mindset with the pure hate they display to my people both online and in the real world.yorubas abroad has been taken for a ride for taking your folks as fellow Nigerians on numerous occassion.the south african police already identify the peeps that commit most crime in their country.fyi yorubas are not saint but definitely we are ahead.

The thing is this: people that reason like you don't change and they tend to have a very short and selective memory. So trying to make sense with you is looking like pouring water on a stone, it doesn't and will never sink. I am out. Have a good life.

Demdem: u got it wrong so Apology accepted. I voted for General Buhari.
I think we all should stop this back and forth. I am much more interested in the retardeen fulfilling his part of agreement. This will spare us another confirmed 4yrs of stupidity and dumbness in government.

Unfortunately not everybody in your land was thinking like you in 2011. Many were busy blackmailing Buhari that he took motor-rail away from Lagos when he came to power and others boycotted the election and thats how you ended up with GEJ.

take dat: Not only will I vote for Fashola, I shall also be a political volunteer!

Nice to know, reserve your volunteering energy for 2035.

Sorry, Fashola have to wait till 2035, which is a real shame, that is, if there is still anything called Nigeria then.
Thats the year Nigerian turn by turn leadership fulcrum will rotate in SW favour again. Unfortunately OBJ you lot don't like had used up your 8 years turn.
If you can't wait till 2035, then declare Oduduwa Republic, that will end the frustration of waiting.

Demdem: U thought. Exactly where u got it wrong. Don't know ur favourite party u are talking about.

I am sorry, if I got it wrong. If ACN is not your favourite party, who did you cast your vote for in 2011 or did you boycott it too?

eggheaders: I don't need jamb record I did my nysc in the south east.where ss1 students don't know their date of birth and very uninterested in education peeps.that will always remind you that you wasting your time impacting knowledge in them. they quick to tell you that they wanna go to university of main market.and for your corruptless south easterners like Arthur nzeribe that sold arms using in killing his kinsmen,Chuba odigbo,Jim nwagobo went so low as stealing the generator set in the national stadium,Charles soludo currency scam,Cecilia ibru,the orji brothers and loads of your kinsmen that has a date with the hangman all over southeast asia.even south Africans police will ask you whether you igbo or not. they know your folks and crime are perfect synonyms.

Who told you that there is no killers, kidnappers, drug pushers, corrupt politicians from the East? Unlike you that thinks everybody from your tribal reason is all corporate millionaires and saints without sin and hate money more than a monk.

Behind every Arthur Nzeribe, their is Oni of Ife, Behind every Soludo (no charge had been brought against him) their Erasmus Akingbola, behind every Ibru (though not from the East) there is Madam Ete, the only person ever executed for drug in the Nigerian history were your brothers.

So you can see, we all have bad and good apples, no matter were we all come from, unless you comes from some planet no one have heard?

I don't reason like you. I see things as a human being, not a a deranged tribal pillock.
Everybody in the East can't spell their names, you claimed, and I can see how well you are doing in your fantastic spelling world?
If South African police is asking you whether you are Igbo and not a Nigerian, what does that tell you about yourself as a Nigerian?
That must count for something.
Take the tribal yoke of tribe from your eyes and enjoy life, because at the moment you are just one of the casualties of Nigerian tribal mental prison.

ABAKA72: my brother, I said they won the AFCON under him, I didn't talk about how they won it, so try to understand me. There will be self inflicted heart break for a lot of folk on account of GEJ, mark my words God has favoured that man, and has resarved disappointment for those fighting against him. (oandoaka, turai, kanti bello, atiku, Boko haram etc) there something uncanny about this man.

Well before him, they won it with Shagari and Abacha in charge, whose luck was those? There is nothing uncanny about him, only that he is from the south and many you from the south like him felt obligated to support him whatever happened, the same thing northerners use to do and you were complaining then.

Orblonde: Nigeria will fall apart thanks to the parasitic north.

Why do you guys really call the north parasite?
That onion you may be frying up tomorrow for your jollof rice, where do you think it comes from? Time will come when we will be paying import duty for some of the things we take the north for granted now. In as much as I want everybody to go their separate ways, I hate this stereotype that northerners are lazy, that is far from the truth.

eggheaders: you guys in my epistle is definitely the inhabitants of the east of the niger domination of the corporate world by the Yorubas in your enclave is not meant for boastful reasons but a wake up call for your folks to take up education and reduce all this making cash by all means mentality.if you think it all a fantasy right we can hook up in enugu.and for breaking your region from the squalor that should be the duties of your political office holders and not mine.and anyway they can come and learn about real development from the progressives holding sway in the south west.

I have very little time for people that thinks too much of their own relevance. Can you publish some figures from the likes of JAMB exams entrance to support this your claim?
Your so called cash by all means mentality is well known old and expired stereotype. People like Ibori, Tafa Balogun, Dimeji Bankole, Erasmus Akingbola and the recently 70 years old former Sunny Ade guitarist drug mule are not from the East.
Unless you and your corporate buddies hate money too?

If Bayero had died, nothing will happen. Somebody else among his kins will immediately take over his position in the Nigerian lootocracy race.
And give it few weeks, he will be past history, just like others before him.
When they killed Abiola- Not even a flame was lightened.
They killed Ken Saro Wiwa like a chicken, not even a whiff of noise. Nigerians are too flippant to go in flames because one of the jigsaws fell off, while thousands of others are waiting in the wing to take his place.

ABAKA72: one of the funniest aspect of the GEJ phenomenon is that people underrates him, and that is his biggest strenght. Nobody believed he will be a Governor not to talk of President. Secondly, he has loads of luck, far luckier than lucky OBJ, under his administration the SE just won the AFCON when others before him has tried in vain. Lol!!.

AFCON has nothing to do with him or his luck. Super Eagle won by having a good manager, player selected based on merit and who are ready to leave their egos behind.
If there is such a thing as GEJ luck, what is stopping him using it to give Nigerians 24 hour power supply or does his luck only stop after football? And the last I checked, super eagle didn't even qualify last time, or was his luck on vacation last time?

Genius100: What a bunch of BS. How about the thousands of Igbo slaves that did not commit suicide and simply succumbed to slavery? I don't know why Nigerians like to deceive themselves,

Well the original poster made it sound that all of them committed suicide, so he didn't expect the kind of response he got, therefore you can't have it both ways.

eggheaders: why do u want me to tell you.but what should be my reason for going to the east if not something related to that.ain't gat problem with peeps pushing trucks but the way you lots boast as if you owns the whole business and money in Nigeria non of your folks ought not to be a never do well.prior to my first visit to the east,with the way your folks project themselves in lagos I didn't think I will see the east in it present state of squalor.

Who in the name of God is you guys? That boast.
If you are such allergic to boasting, what do you call your claim of corporate in the East? Why stop half way in your boast by telling us what your stake in this your corporate world? Is it because its a fantasy of yours, and you wished your were part of such?

If you haven't got problem with truck pushing, why use it in derogatory terms? You have many other reasons for going to the east-like its part of your own country. Hello!!
If the East is a squalor, next time you are there with your corporate buddies, why not give them some tips, on how you managed to make yours a paradise. Thats what a good corporate does, I can't imagine any sensible and real business person if not a fantasist calling his stade a squalor.

eggheaders: go to corporate establishment in your enclave to find out and stop asking me question. enugu airport was almost like a normal Yoruba street when everyone was communicating where your peeps them go.they dey upper iweka dey push truck. Po unu uzo.

I don't have an enclave, hardly the issue.
And that is not my question, which was, are you personally part of the Yoruba corporate in the East or in the world you claimed earlier?
Whats your stake?
And by the way, there is nothing wrong in pushing truck, aren't a crime anywhere in the world. As long as it puts food on the table, thats fine by me.
Its called the dignity in labour in many sane nations, better than playing ludo all day.
