Politics / Re: How Northern APC Governors Preserved Nigeria’s Unity ~ Chief Lawani by Godspikin: 7:51pm On Mar 23, 2023 |
hkidola00: Mineral resources is just one of the things and I don't mean Gold alone. The states of Nassarawa, Zamfara even Bornu have some of these minerals. There are nations that have next to nothing in mineral resources but have just their land and people and are doing excellent. It is erroneous to say that the north doesn't have anything. I don't subscribe to that. Arable land for agriculture I mean. 1 Like |

hkidola00: Please educate me about Mali and Niger, don't leave me guessing. What I know is that every state of Nigeria has all the resources it needs to compete favourably in a system of true federalism (fiscal federalism). It will shock you to know that these northern states have abundance of things you know nothing about or you do not acknowledge as resources. I am a GEOLOGIST and I can tell you that when it comes to solid minerals in Nigeria, the north is where you look for most of it, that doesn't mean you don't have it in the south as well. The reason why we all aren't looking inwards and being creative with revenue generation drive is the overdepedndence on Federal allocation which is largely based on Crude Oil. This very thing is the bane of our underdevelopment. There is no Messiah that will save Nigeria with this present system, not Obi, not even Tinubu or anyone. I dare say not even Jesus, as long as the President will not be in Aso rock and at the same time be at the bank when the manager hoards new notes, or at the special centre where people are being registered so they can score 8 or 9 As through exam malpractices or at the filling station where the pump has been adjusted and sold at a price above the regulated. The best we can get is just some little improvement here and there. The only Messiah that will change Nigeria is that man that is courageous enough to change the present structure and system. 1 Like |
Politics / Re: PDP Refers Ortom To Disciplinary Committee, Suspends Fayose, Anyim, Others by Godspikin: 6:53pm On Mar 23, 2023 |
NIGERIAJAGAJAGA: In politics, as it is in boxing and wrestling, there is heavyweight, lightweight and featherweight. Ortom has no weight and political value. Wike is a governor in a state where PDP cleared all the assembly seats both states and national and has a new governor. Seyi also won most of the state assembly seats and a significant number of the national assembly seat. They would think twice to take action against them. More so, there is no evidence against this two. Ortom already provided evidence by declaring support for Obi. He is the only member of the G5 who did so. |

Is building an airport a measure of how impactful the government of a state is?, even if the governor and a few are the ones making use of it and there isn't much air traffic, they should build it to make you happy or prove your point, abi?

stanbright: No race or tribe is superior to another. We were humans first. If they bring real hate on you guys, your people will start complaining of the bitterness and hate towards the Igbo, whereas it is statements like yours that triggers that consciousness in others. This statement of yours is why the Igbos keep failing whenever they put an Igbo man forward for the seat of the president. Igbos will continue to fail to produce a Nigerian president except this attitude changes. Politics is a game of numbers, the north is the beautiful bride that must be courted, alliance with the North is not slavery, but the superiority complex of the Igbos is their downfall. It would have been good if you guys with your superiority complex don't play the victim card, but NO, you are the ones that always cry victim. Hate begets hate, bitterness begets bitterness. Please change! |

ariesbull: All the noise the Igbos and some obidients are making about the GRV issue is just emotional blackmail. He is not the first person to contest in Yorubaland who has an Igbo mother, he is also not the first to contest in Yorubaland who has a Non-yoruba wife. Governor Adeleke's mother is Igbo. Aketi's wife is Igbo. Governor Seyi Makinde's wife is not Yoruba. There has never been anytime any Yoruba man campaigned against any of these people on the basis of where their mother or wife is from. One should then ask, what is different in his own case. GRV was rejected because of his disposition towards his supposed people the people he intended to govern, evident in his submissions online. He wasn't rejected because his mom or wife is igbo. He was rejected because of his disposition towards the Yorubas, his disposition is anti-yoruba. His posts can be likened to an Hausa man referring to Hausas as bunch of Almajiris, no Hausa man will ever tag his people in that manner, at least not one who has the intention of leading them. If we are to talk of those who have played a divisive and tribalistic politics in this years election and in recent past, it is Peter Obi and the igbos. When Obi was contesting against Ngige, he erected a billboard putting Ngige between Tinubu and Awolowo and putting himself between Ojukwu and Zik. Please tell me how that is not tribalistic. The voting data of this election has also shown without any doubt that the Igbos are clannish and tribalistic. While the votes of the South West was shared amongst the 3 tribes of the front runners, with non-Yorubas winning in Lagos and Osun and in states of the south west where they didn't win, they had significant numbers which is not so in the South East. If the Yorubas now decided that they wouldn't want their liberal nature to be taken for granted such that a particular people now wants to ride roughshod over them, how is that tribalistic please? For the incidents of violence that has characterised this election, I think all well meaning Nigerians ought to condemn it as it was not restricted to Lagos or the South West alone, even in the South East and across the country lives were lost to the violence that characterised this election. It is foolish to think that a region that has been this accomodating is tribalistic. When evidence abounds, at least in this election the very people who are tribalistic. 3 Likes |

Politics / Re: Presidential Election Tribunal: Peter Obi's 5 Prayers by Godspikin: 2:44pm On Mar 21, 2023 |
HIGHESTPOPORI: That Abuja 25% exposed Obi as the dullard that some of us have known him to be. I thought he said he had proof he won the election and was going to show that to the world. He just made Tinubu's case very easy now. As far as the Abuja issue is, Abuja is more or less like the 37th state of the nation but the constitution refers to it as the FCT and it has it's own uniqueness as such, part of which includes the fact that it does not have a house of assembly or a governor. However Abuja has no special status such that one must win Abuja before he can be declared President. If that were to be so, what a candidate needs to do is just win Abuja alone even if he fails in 30+ states, it also means even if a candidate wins 34 states but loses Abuja he would not be declared winner. That is totally illogical, only zombidients can imagine such. 23 Likes 3 Shares |
Politics / Re: Asari Dokubo Sends Strong Message To Bishop Oyedepo, Warns Yoruba People by Godspikin: 11:24am On Mar 21, 2023 |
NothingDoMe: That would be wrong. Numerous Yorubas voted against Tinubu. Some cos of the Muslim-Muslim ticket and the fact that they view his vice as an extremist. Some who would have voted for him did not because of his age and health. Some of those who voted for him voted for him because of his past record of performance. That's not to say that there are no Yorubas who voted just because he is Yoruba. If you say Tinubu lost because of the interference of Igbos that then would mean that the Igbos have the highest population in Lagos, which is false. If there were no Yorubas who voted for the LP in Lagos, there's no way LP would have won Lagod, mind you Hausas too have quite a number of voters who may not have traveled down to the North this time because of cash crunch. |

Flier: I am talking about the voting data here not an assumption. You have to convince me from the voting data. When you juxtapose the voting data or the voting pattern of the Southwest with that of the South East you will see nothing but pure tribal sentiments playing out in the South east. In the south west Atiku won in Osun, Labour won in Lagos and in the south west states of Ondo, Oyo, Ekiti and Ogun where both PDP and Labour party did not win they had significant number of votes, same can not be said of the south east where LP and Igbos ensured their kinsman Obi got 85% or more while the other tribes shared the paltry 15% or less in some states, by appealing to tribal sentiments. In the south west other tribes won 2 out of the 6 Southwest states and in the states they didn't win, they had significant numbers but in the South East, only the Igbo candidate won and in some states he got over 90%. That's what the data shows. Which people then should we say is tribalistic in the way they voted or which people should we say is voting along tribal lines. Mind you the votes of the north was also shared. It is surprising to know that it is only in the South East that a particular candidate dominated or took almost all the votes. So where is the tribal line you are talking about in the Southwest. Please show me using data. 4 Likes 1 Share |

Flier: Not true! It is not true that Yorubas voted along tribal lines, if you check the spread of the votes you will see that as evident, however some if not most of the youths voted along religious lines. The reason Tinubu lost Lagos was because some Yorubas in Lagos voted along religious lines. Most Yoruba Christian youths voted based on their perception of the Muslim-Muslim ticket as an affront to their religion. A baseless point howbeit. 4 Likes 1 Share |

Ceoangelcee: It still boils down to one thing, ability to make solid alliances with other regions. The igbos must not make it appear they are all she needs to win. Also she must not make her campaign to be about religion just as Obi was going from church to church. Nigeria is a country of pagans, traditional worshippers, christians, muslims, animists, atheists and some that don't even have a classification even though Nigeria is a country of Muslims and christians just for the sake of filling forms. She is loved no doubt. I mean I for one would vote for her but she must be able to have foot soldiers in the Northern part of the country. Strong politicians, particularly the state governors because the party structure at that level is built around them. |
