oxygeng:No tantrums were thrown on my path, I just started a fact that has been corroborated by even the governors there. Godspeed |
oxygeng:Wow!!! How did we even get to politics? |
pandoragirigory:Baba was the Dino or FFK of Sage Awolowo, when Awo died the baton was passed to Bola Ige, after Bola Ige died, it became a shared baton between the leaders of Afenifere pa Fasoranti, Abraham Adesanya, Baba and others. They decided on the politics of the SW. They tried to remove Tinubu via impeachment, Pa Adesanya pleaded they gave him another chance. Immediately Tinubu was in the clear, he began to rendered them powerless, the nail in the coffin for them was when OBJ wanted to run for second term, he convinced them that they should support his ambition, Tinubu refused, insisting the have their own candidate to run against OBJ they didn't listen. OBJ took all SW states for PDP save Lagos state. It is rumoured that Pa Adesanya died of heartbreak due to Tinubu, of course since then Afenifere lost all political influence in the SW, so it's no secret that Pa Adebanjo does like Tinubu for many reasons. |
Kwashiman:I don't believe this herdsmen narrative, it may have started as herdsmen but it has been hijacked by criminal elements. It is either there is a terrorist militia that have not been named or criminal locals are perpetrating this crime. A case study is the southeast, they claimed it was herdsmen but it now clear that the crime is being perpetrated by locals. I pray their new governor will get to the bottom of this barbaric killings. |
I'm afraid some of us don't fully understand how global politics works. The one who controls world energy controls the world, Saudi Arabia control the prices of world energy, America has an alliance with Saudi, military equipments for control of oil prices by denominating the price of oil in US dollar. The Saudi's control an oil cartel called OPEC, by proxy America controls world energy. The whole BRICS propaganda has been gaining momentum, but if the can't control world energy it's dead on arrival, secondly how do they agree on the world defacto currency is it rubles or rupees or rand or yuan? Who gets to get absolute power? Trade between 2 countries in their currencies is dependent on the value each country can bring to the table, the moment a country dipps in value the alliance becomes porous. |
Antimandatethie:Politics is a game, play the game. The funny thing is that the southwest the lesson of political inclusion from the southeast. Awolowo was always playing the regional card while Zik was I alliance with the north. Akintola, Awolowo's deputy was tired of the regional game and wanted to play national, of course Awo didn't agree this cause a rift between them, split the political structure. Awo lost big time. There has to be some political diversity from the southeast, what does the southeast expect when they give 90% of their votes to a party that came third? They will get ordinary treatment, it will be folly to expect extra ordinary treatment. The seat of senate President is eluding the southeast because of this same problem. The Northwest want the senate President seat because they delivered for the APC and they have a valid claim, they are even using it to push a 2027 agenda already. |
Sunnyshinylight:Welcome to party politics Labour party. The effects of proper party structure is playing out. |
Yourprick:Government control is too deep in Nigeria. We have very weak incentives for production. If the government doesn't take interest in a sector, it's very difficult to thrive in it. The only production subsectors working have had some form of government intervention, Cement, telco's, oil. FMCGs are shutting down, we don't have textile or electronics industries. Things |
AllMight:You need to be explicit about what you want. All you have said about both ladies are surface deep. What are your values? Which of the ladies have similar values? What are your dreams and aspirations? Do either of them fit into helping you get them? What are these ladies looking for in a man? Do you fit the description? Go on a date with these ladies and ask deep questions. |
Pussykills:Like you keep count of them? I think the problem you have is that of sex adventure, you are looking for a new experience with every sexual episode. Unfortunately, the more you seek new experiences the weaker you are to hold down a meaningful relationship, this is so because the most crucial factor to you in a relationship is sex. The feeling of love has different components like mutual interest, honesty& openness, respect, emotional support, financial support, sex, reliability, etc. Until you redefine what love is to you, you are stuck in this bubble. |
adenigga:Census in Nigeria is primarily for determine how to share allocation to states. It might make political sense to be numbered in your state of origin, it doesn't make social sense as your state of residence will suffer financial shortfall thereby affecting it daily running. The future is states generating income that far out ways fed allocation. |
Obi is not a bad person, he is just not skilled in the act of Nigerian politics. All politicians use the ethnic and religious card and get away with it, but because of the I can never do wrong persona he put out he is getting the backlash. To be honest the reason Peter Obi didn't win is his deputy Datti. Peter Obi had a great outing in the south and parts of the NC. Datti couldn't get the core north to give LP 30% votes, that would have been enough to swing the elections in their favour. Peter Obi should have pressed president Obasanjo to prevail on Kwankwaso to be his running mate, the odds would have been better up north. These people are going to continually dig up dirt on Peter Obi, till they get what can bury him. I hope the LP start working on the different facets of structure for their party. It is really irritating to know that a presidential candidate was making calls on an insecure line, call encryption isn't expensive, why did the labor party communication team not get a secure line for Peter Obi? |
ganisucks:There are better ways of ensuring the credibility of aspirants than charging them exorbitant fees. All our political parties are the same. |
benjackugo: |
obembet:When 2 healthy adults engage in unprotected sex there are only 2 outcomes, irrespective of the contraception used. Either the woman gets pregnant or she doesn't. There is no mistakes here, one or the other has to occur. unfortunately, women are at the receiving end as they have to host the pregnancy. Since this is the case, they have to be a lot more responsible in handling their sexual affairs than men. A man who wants you as a woman will do whatever you make a requirement to get you, the problem is a few women make very weak requirements. A man is not obligated to marrying a woman he got pregnant. |
NIGERIAJAGAJAGA:Honestly, the subsidy of 4 trillion naira has been a waste these past few years. I would have rathered they used the money to build mass transit regional train networks so we have rails linking all the SW, SS,SE, NC, NE& NW states. Then individual states also have to invest in mass transit. Also investing in power will cut a huge chunk of our petrol consumption. |
Spurs present structure is anemic to success. Irrespective of how talented the manager is, they don't soar above their average. Chelsea is going to face same issues, Roman knew how to always get them out of a hole with money, but the new owners won't be willing to go that far. Spurs needs to be sold to solve it's problems. |
Ehinjuola:Dear sir, One of the keys to a successful relationship is effective communication. You have to talk with your lady. I think the cold feet is coming from the fact that you only decided to go along with her wish to get married because of the pregnancy. You need to reassure her she is the priced jewel not the pregnancy. Secondly, unplanned knowledge that one will be a parent can take it's toll on soon to be parents. Years of premeditated plans are just brushed aside for the soon coming new addition, it can take some getting used to. Proper communication, planning, and recalibration is necessary. This is not the time to give her space, it is the time to help each other heal and prepared for the little on. Try to spend more time together, go out to her favourite places as much as your budget will permit, reassure her all will be fine, and have honest conversation about your future. |
EBMedia:Lol! It has always been like this, but because of vested interest people are just noticing. At least now we know the thug problem is not just a Lagos problem. Labor party made a very big blunder, in areas they enjoyed great support, they ought to have a volunteer security team of their supporters. Seeing 6 hefty battle ready guys will to some extent dieter tugs. |
lightuplightup:Prehistorically it has always been like this, the presidential elections enjoy a lot of attention than the gubernatorial elections, however this one is extreme. Obidents should have pushed more today than on the presidential elections. The foundations built today will further their cause in 2027, that is if they will still be interested. The road to change things is not a sprint race, it is a marathon. |
lummy247:Your husband has no justification to cheat on you. However I noticed something you said, ''They talk every day and they exchange romantic texts everyday'' Do you talk with him? I don't mean asking for something or informing him about something, I mean exchanging thoughts on shared interests. Do you exchange romantic texts? Take out your phone and send him a romantic message now, tell him you can't wait to have some hot sex romp with him tonight. How spontaneous are you in the bedroom? Go get some sexy lingerie, scented candles, a bottle of red wine, and some nice mood music. He will initially resist your advances but he will eventually come around. Your husband has needs, and his side chick is the one catering to those needs, he is willing to get rid of you and yours for his needs to be met. The issue at hand is not who is right or wrong, the issue is how can you win. Do what it takes to win. |
Islie:How do all these people come up with this nonsense? Gbaja is more useful to BAT at the national assembly than as a chief of staff, even a rookie knows this. |
Femmyfamous4u:I'm afraid there is little you can do. Since you were already aware of your sexual incompatibility why did you go ahead to marry her? I think the problem is less of a sexual problem and more of a communication problem. You guys should talk about sex, it's frequency, positions, turnoffs, emotion b4 and after etc. The right information will determine the kind of help you need. Sex for a woman doesn't start in the bed room. It starts hours b4 the act, you use her love language and things she likes to build momentum for the act. |
OJEEMAH:Read my comment slowly. I didn't compare him with anyone, I just outlined a loop hole. |
obembet:No Xavi & Inesta to do ground work and cover for him. He is very lucky to have them for more than half his career. |
NwekeUG:We emphasised about structure but they claimed the people are their structure. Party structure involves not just having polling unit agents, but the polling unit agents give live report to your situation room, a snap shot of the polling unit result sheet and overall outcome in the polling unit. These results are compiled by wards, LGA and states. Polling unit agents are not just road side guys they are trained. It will be near impossible to analyse the BVAS results, correlate it with the PU result sheet, carry out a forensic audit of election material in a year. PDP is in a more healthier position to challenge the outcome of the results.Just listening to Dino's arguments it is clear he is correlating the announced results with the results in PDP situation room. should LP want to contest this election, they don't have a claim in the 3 northern geopolitical zones, their argument is limited to SS and SW which is not enough to win the election. The winner was decided in the NW, LP had a poor outing there. |
Delphi:Can we have the breakdown of the 19 states Peter Obi won? If you can add the numbers also, that will be great. |
Cletus77:I think you need to look at the Edo election from the perspective of data. In 2015 total votes were a little shy of 500k, in 2019 a little more than 500k and now in 2023 it's 581k. Progression wise the numbers make sense, if you add 100k votes to Obi, the sequence of voters will be an anomaly. |
Politics is about building alliances, they don't agree with you, you move to the next, no time to argue or fuss, or abuse or crate enemies. Peter Obi, understands this he has led by example, visiting every Tom, Dick, and Harry irrespective of their personal disposition. That is why it takes to win, the undecided voters are plenty, they are to be convinced not bullied. |
Ekemini11:who are all these clowns with all these funny stats? like 60%? really? It ok to push for any candidate but allocating 60% to one candidate is preposterous. We have not had an election with 3 equally strong candidates with colossal followership. A 40% win is more believable. |
PlayMaker14:You need to look at it from the perspective of time based value. The POS operator spends 12 hours to get cash, it isn't economical to collect 100 naira for 10,000 naira. The POS agents are not the problem, CBN and the commercial banks are the problem. Increase supply and the whole problem disappears. |
nlfpmod:You can't join different people with different ideology on a map with a pencil. Many of the problems we face as a nation is tied to the inability of some components of what has been joined as a nation to evolve. The man from the northeast considers the man from Chad & Niger as his brother, hence he will open up his boarders to him, but in actual sense they belong to different countries. The man from Lagos see's the man from Benin repb as a neighbor, the man from cross river sees the man from Cameroon as a neighbor and nothing more. A part of the merged nation believes in capitalism, the other part believes in socialism. Let me let you on a secret, one of the reasons for epileptic power supply in the country is that some folks believe they don't have to pay for electricity and the government ensures they get it for free to curtail unrest. I personally think that some of the rising young stars still don't get what is going on. As long as they remain in their location, the harassment won't stop. The cure to such harassment is wealth and power. Go out and get of location and get it, then come back and change things. They are presently too weak to even spark a conversation. |
