True! However, since VP Osinbajo is a well educated person & presumably a man of integrity, he ought to have resigned & leave the moribund govt since they dont respect his constitutional responsibility.This is what they is obtainable in civilised climes.

Perhaps he doesn't wants to offend the powers that be.However, events have proven time without number that these brutes dont respect him.So what has changed?

if he resigns, who takes his place? Peter Obi abi

universe26:
Prof. Sir, so his aim 4 running for the position of vp was to be employed & earn a vp's salary bcus he was jobless right? & also that position does not make impact on nigerian wellbeing? Oga abeg carry ur phd go. I hav a lot to say but i'm too busy to type. Thank u prof.

as vp his job description is tied to his boss the president who assigns duties to him and nothing more. You guys should stop this prejudice, do you want him to be disloyal to his boss? He has no powers except the powers confer to him by the President. What did GEJ change in Nigeria as VP?

If you don't like him say so and stop being cynical

universe26:
Pls hide this your opinion okay. he has the power to make changes as they claimed, & u think giving him d presidential power will make a change as promised? guy make them no deceive u at d coming election o!

Which power does he have as vp, illiterate this is how you guys spread ignorance.

By our constitution even a state governor has more powers than a vp.

Such is life most employers are not always happy when their employee leave for a better deal elsewhere.

Partey should go and do thanksgiving that his village people went on vacation

IGBOSON1:
See this fool!

You think you can force Buhari down our throats just because of Onitsha river port.....even after all the wickedness he's done and continues to do to Ndigbo? Whatever token shi't he's doing in the south-east.....is he using his personal money or money from northern groundnut to do it? Where does the south-east stand in appointments and federally enabled infrastructure compared to his north-west? I can tell you for free that Nigeria has taken more from Alaigbo than it has given to us, so stop disturbing us because of this little river port even as billion dollar investments are being channeled towards his north-west!

Buhari is worse than a terrorist....he's the spawn of satan! Oya, go tell him to stop whatever he's doing with Onitsha river port because i called him out for what he really is!

what was taken from you guys? is it money, land or what

loopman:
They are so fearful to mention Atiku who is definitely nursing the idea of another shot at the Presidency on PDP platform but asking Tinubu of APC ...a party they have the flimsiest stake to back off

These people are working for Atiku and PDP

You are very right, it's still vp position in pdp they will settle for. Their fear is that the APC chances of winning again in 2023 is too high and they know they will not feature in that ticket be it president or vice.

Fayemi you are an hypocrite period

abeg where this that mama gee meme of laughing in spiritual powers

the evil genius, what other damage from you can still be of a surprise after June 12 annulment?

rontolo:
Absolutely. More than your father and fashola combined

talk is cheap bruv, only those around you can attest to your credibility

If you don't have a high skilled job in any western nation, you will suffer. The guy is right.

Most nigerians are just ignorant of what truly goes on in the west.

rontolo:
What he says may have some merit. But when NOI complained of state govs being a clog, I remember this man, Amaechi and co antagonising her viciously. To them, all things evil emanated from the Fed gov/centre.

The issue is, given his antecedent, double-speak and hypocrisy, there is a major credibility gap with Fashola . He lost credibility after he left office as gov. Desperate to remain politically relevant, will say anything and oppose anyone regardless. Remember the Power solution in 6 months? I’m sure he knew he was embellishing when he said that

He isn’t credible and should fem. If this had come from the likes of NOI or others who have stuck to a consistent message, fine. Not from this hypocrite abeg

Do you yourself have credibility?

WordMetrix:
What you don't seem to understand is that as the federal Capital Territory, Lagos had already attracted all necessary resources both human and material, to make it succeed before hand. Check through the globe and see, there's no state which was once a federal Capital that it's not more developed than the other components. Any project carried by successive governments is predicated on what has already been built. As the former FCT, Lagos had already put everything on ground to make it succeed for coming years. For instance, industrial estates had attracted lots of human capital to Lagos of yesterday thereby boosting the IGR potentials of the state not necessarily because of what the governors are doing today. This informs the reason for the presence of different professionals and technocrats in the state. If you think what I'm saying isn't true then go and read Mydal's theory of resource development

Those industrial estates you are talking about was built by awolowo and he was never Nigeria's president. Matori, oba Akran, isolo name them were all awolowo projects and legacies.

It was even FG that leveraged on all these industrial clusters and are still benefitting from them. Don't rewrite history, Abuja has been federal capital for almost 30 yrs now and still cannot match up to Lagos, e get why

MinorityOpinion:
There is time for everything, appreciate good things

I tire o, nigerians take things too serious at times.

Jackelony:
I just bought with buypower.ng and to my pleasant surprise, I got it at the old rate. So, apparently, they have reversed to the old rate.

so what happens to those of us who bought at the old rates?

flokii:
@Op I feel you should be more worried about SE always playing second fiddle to the Hausa/Fulani since independence, I'm sure 2023 won't be an exception.
Instead of boldly asking for your rights from PDP, you prefer to sell it like a plate of porridge only to cry foul later. When did Wike and Secondus join PDP? look at how they hold sway in the party whereas Igbos that claim to be smarter are nowhere to be found in PDP.

The igbos only roll with anyone in power, their pain with PMB is that he never gave them face. When obj, Yar adua and gej was president they roll with them. Remember that when Yar dua was even sick they were even supporting Yar dua wife against gej, that's how lazy they are. Power must be served alacarte or they start crying like babies.

Smithkafors:
You are ignorant and clever by half by making such claim!. What infrastructure is on ground?.Most of the projects were done by military.Show me one infrastructure in Lagos that is the same that is commensurate with the

Lekki ikoyi bridge was done by the military abi.

AlabiJ:
This frontal attack against Bode George's leadership of Lagos PDP by Ayo Fayose shows that there's a serious crack in the SW PDP. Bode George is in Seyi Makinde's camp, while most of the SW party chairmen are in Fayose's camp. This also shows that the PDP candidate in the upcoming Lagos senatorial election may not have Bode George's election. Even the Lagos PDP is divided; one camp is loyal to Bode George and a factional chairman, while another is loyal to another faction that has Uche Secondus endorsement. In short, Lagos PDP isn't ready.

Pdp has always been factionalized from the amodu sheriff time, na boju boju pdp just dey too. Nigerians will know better soon

yoruba1914:
Fayemi2023 or we balkanize this country. Period

say wetin

Nigerian elites don't like to be exposed and will do anything to prevent being exposed, they work hand in hand with fellow elites in the judiciary

Faithfulness88:
The rate has not changed. God help us.

very true, bought 108 units for 5k today, something I normally get for over 200 units before the hike

StepTwo:
Which political party does Ben Ayade of Cross River belong to because you can never find him anywhere. Not party meetings, not campaigns. NOTHING

Ayade and umahi of ebonyi are both members of APC and pdp like night and day things

pharmagba:
The way the students complain about the school it seems to me that either most of the students or intending students are not born again or they are simply 'agebo'

Or how else can I fathom why they cannot scammer for a shelter during rainfall and prefer to take to social media.
Go to Federal Universities in Nigeria and you understand the meaning of survival

On top of the money wey dem pay haba

golddare:
The day Nigeria breaks will be celebration galore in the South. I pray we break peacefully.

we can never break peacefully, those of you wishing for a break up don't know the implications. With the way we are used to free movement north-south, east-west, most Nigerians will struggle with that reality, talk is cheap!

Jonathan as pdp candidate again will make it very easy for APC to win. Those thinking of parading the man don't mean well at all

Ayed44:
Try and Google Nigeria's GDP in May 1999 and in May 2015.

As for the comparison between APC and PDP, it is unfortunate that we are stuck between APC and PDP. But u cannot compare the two parties based only on ur individual opinion. Conduct a simple opinion poll across Nigeria and u will discover that 75% of Nigerians believe that their lives were far better under the PDP government that under the current APC government. You will not know this unless you carry out an nationwide opinion poll.

In other words, if u conduct a free and fair presidential election in Nigeria today, majority of Nigerians will vote for PDP.

Nigerians have shorter memories that's why, do you know how many times the price of fuel went up in the days of pdp? obj said if nigerians can afford a bottle of beer, why are we complaining, it was the hardship under pdp that made Nigerians vote APC, now whether APC has performed is a different matter.

it is you guys in the cities that deride APC, folks living in villages where infrastructures like roads and rails built by the APC pass through have different views about the party

seunmsg:
I am glad the national leadership has declared all purpoted suspensions a nullity. They should take it a step further by reconciling all the warring factions in the state. A divided APC can never defeat PDP in Ekiti. The party must learn from the recent mistake of Edo.

it's not over, the nullity is just to take side with the Governor to save the embarrassment, expect more trouble in Ekiti especially with the way the party and presidency showed their hand in the last edo elections. The Presidency and the party just gave more room for antiparty activities extravaganza.

pikin wey say im mama no go sleep, im self go dey do night vigil everyday

Abagworo:
Tinubu should have left Imo and Rivers alone for Amaechi and Okorocha. One of them shall succeed Buhari

with which votes?
