whicj choice is decided?

Tinubu gives Lagos State a governor. Abia State is not given a Governor.

There is no democracy in Lagos. Tinubu is King there, with figureheads he calls Governors. This is the delusion I speak of with Lagosuans

safarigirl:
This is a lie. Non-indigenes are the ones holding key positions in Abuja

Lagos State is the only State aside Abuja where a non-indigene can hold a key position, because Lagos is no man's land, like Abuja. The actual indigenes of Abuja are Gwari and Gbagyi, but check representation in HoR and Senate, I doubt you can find anyone from those ethnicities.


Can you find an Igbo man as an adviser in Ogun State? Two HoR members from Lagos State are Igbo.....that is why I stated already that the state owes indigenes of other states for it's progress so far. Tinubu was a governor in Lagos, is he from Lagos? Fashola and Ambode are not indigenes of Lagos, but both occupied seats in Government house.


Can a man from Osun become governor in Ekiti? That example is void because Lagos is the exception to such occurrences. That level of tolerance is not obtainable in any other part of the entire South West. Do you know why? Because EVERYBODY is in Lagos, every ethnicity has a decent level of representation in Lagos. It does not apply in Ekiti or Osun or Ondo, it cannot even happen in Ogun.

safarigirl:
politics section is filled with dimwits who cannot make intelligent arguments without shouting IPOB and Afonja. Maybe politics section of 2007-2011 had actual intelligent peeps, but that section is now populated by agberos

safarigirl:
exactly

I'm sure you all saw how Theodore Orji rendered Orji Uzor Kalu politically useless. There can never be a Tinubu in the East. Man seats whoever he wants in Alausa, his wife is in Senate, his daughter is Iyaloja and everybody thinks it's perfectly fine.

safarigirl:
nobody can outsmart abybody in the East


It is not about political smartness, it is about culture. The Igbo man does not believe that one man should dictate to them what happens in their lives. There is no godfather in Igbo land and there can never be. Many have tried and failed, if Tinubu was Igbo, he for do him two terms comot

safarigirl:
Tinubu is the one selecting Governors for you people, so if Ambode failed, it is still Tinubu that failed.

You cannot hail Fashola and say it was Tinubu, then condemn Ambode and say, "Tinubu has nothing to do with it".....since Lagos is property of Asiwaju Tinubu and everybody inside is his property, the failure of any Governor is his failure as well


Lagos is benefiting majorly from LOCATION. It is the first place anyone coming into Nigeria lands. It has the only recognized International airport in this country. Please, did OBJ close down MM 1&2 when he was tormenting Tinubu? Did he close the seaports? Did he re-route everything?

Before I know it, you people will say it is Tinubu that brought airport and seaport to Lagos as well. Tinubu, the personal lord and saviour of Lagos state. All of you just sound like people in abusive relationship. You will defend your abuser with your last breath

safarigirl:
lol....yiu mean the Federal Government aided progress?

Come and tell me how any of these states have ever benefitted from the FG. Lagos has been the pearl of Nigeria since the colonial period. Anambra is moving and functioning with little or no Federal might......In fact, with little or no contribution from Lagos

It is the indigenes of these states that are responsible for at least 50% of Lagos IGR by way of importation. They don't have seaports, no access to foreign investments like Lagos has, but even with the undue advantage, these states are doing great by any standard.

They have a higher living standard, better education, higher life span.......they focus on people-based progress. No be by spilling numbers that cannot be replicated in the life of the average man.

safarigirl:
lol....let me quote you and your Oga "Wisdom is not always with the majority"

komekn:
Putin I am sure is Nigerian who bleached his skin and did plastic surgery to look white Lol

safarigirl:
lol....see your motivation. It is because of Putin that Russia has such strict regulations. Russians have numerous times, rebelled against Putin. Putin likes his opposition and imprisons them. So, that is Tinubu's role model? A thief and a murderer is your leader.

Why you no talk North Korea too, since we are mentioning dictators and authoritarian governments

do4luv14:
So nah tinubu. Carry helicopter pursue thie. Jagudars. For lagos?. So nah tinubu lay and built lagos?. So nah him fix planty potholes. And many of your list. Hahahaha i laff in 50d

safarigirl:
it is very sad that one person can control what happens to over 20 million people like this...

It is only in a third world country you can see such glorification of a rotten politician. Third World countries filled with people with third world mentalities......anyway, I suppose the history of a people determine their politics

Joebie:
Reminds me of that our who can host the best AFCON experience argument.

elyte89:
Do you live in Lagos... If yes? Let me knw


If no?...no point going further trying to explain myself

Deres no point crying more dan d bereaved

At least, 4 Lagosians in Tinubu ward can think for themselves.


Unlike the zombies and slaves on Nairaland here.

Humility017:
you're making me laugh....
I don't even care to know the tribe of these players whenever I argue for their inclusion or canvass for them...all i take note of is them being Nigerians....

let me tell you...I have no soft spot for any tribe...
I have no tribal preference...anyone close to me in person knows this.... I only hate tribalism with disgust.

I hate it when you begin to see other tribe success as threat to yours?
people should be treated first as Nigerians prior their tribal affiliation.

it was so obvious you just wanted tear down nancho reputation just to stylisly promote some of your players....

it's like pulling down Paul to promote Peter...

that make no sense.... I am so sure no reasonable person will stoop so low.

Afelokhai Still Likely For Super Eagles’ Invitation


By Editor -
October 1, 2018

Enyimba of Aba goalkeeper, Theophilus Afelokhai may yet get an invitation to the Super Eagles before the year runs out, as reports reaching footballlive.ng indicate that the inform shot-stopper is still under the searchlight of national team handler, Gernot Rohr.

Although Afelokhai is not included in the squad list to battle Libya in two impending back-to-batch of the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers, feelers indicate he is being monitored by Rohr.

Afelokhai has outshone Eagles’ second choice, Ikechukwu Ezenwa at Enyimba, following the suspension of their Ghanaian star, Fatau Dauda for discipline.

Since then, Afelokhai has performed well in their CAF Confederation Cup and was picked ahead of Ezenwa for their last group match in the 2018 Federation Cup.

However, despite his present status ahead of Ezenwa, Rohr is yet to think much of Afelokhai, and again left him out of the list to face Libya for upcoming AFCON 2019 qualifiers.

However, reports reaching footballlive.ng reveal that the former Kano Pillars keeper is still under observation by the Eagles’ crew and could get an invitation for future games.

AIG07:
Can someone forward this to the u23 coach? What is the name of the coach sef

Joebie:
I don’t think there is a battle between Etebo and Eze. However, Mikel’s omission should have given room for Eze. We could have sacrificed Shehu who is not match-fit. Nine defenders were listed if I’m not mistaken.

Joebie:
Only one moniker has called me a tribalist, and safarigirl rightly tagged his claim baseless. Just for fact sake, I have supported players from my tribe when they perform and given them a knock when they don’t, just as I have done for other players. There is no single player I have remained loyal to no matter the weather. I THINK that sets me apart from MANY monikers here.

edi287:
My own is they better not make this guy change his mind. Scotland will soon pounce on him. Time is money.

Icon4s:
Which one clicked? I didn't see Ajagun on that list.

23. Kalu

If he wants 25 man list. Then two players will added.

Before that time, we will see Nigerian players in the league, UEFA champions league and Europa league. If dey do well, they should be considered while the underperforming once on that list should be removed.

These players are Isaac Success, Kayode Olanrewaju, Dennis Bonaventure and Noah Bazee.

The players that are suspect that needed to be replaced are Odion Ighalo, Simy Nwankwo, Kelechi Iheanacho and Ogu.

Yes!

Noah Bazee for Kelechi Iheanacho

Kayode Olanrewaju for Simy Nwankwo

Denise Bonaventure for Ighalo

If Isaac Success comes in he will compete with Kalu on the right wing.


I want Phillip to take Ogus place with immediate effect.

Elimination by substitution.

daveP:
You want draw a circle, but Ill stop you just right there at the semicircle. I'm not gonna go in circles with you.


No one here is saying Iheanacho performed great. But the fact and seeming comfort of you making this larger than it is, to prove he is no good is what I can't agree with.

Pls Ozil is there too. Pick on Ozil.

He's so poor that Loew had to come to the Arsenal Training Ground to want to try lure him back to national team football?!!


Nacho has left that last season form way behind him and you are here ensuring that all our ears twitch at your constant mentions of poor poor poor. You're one of those that feed on the fact that form is a constant thing in the career of any pro.

I'm glad you fulfill the other side of the table of making him the most discussed player on here.

It's Marca you're drawing this big relevance from. Past!!

Pls can you talk just once about his current form.

Fixed. Mire or less. It's you that's now emotional stable and without strong bias or antagonistic features?


See this hating takes you no where. it's established that you do this and it's glaring to us all that you do it not cosyou love such a player to improve or get better. but cos you ooze undertones of unimportancr to such a player. You'll heal. This is truly stale man.
