SendoSendal: Only if Wike is not as boastful Only if Wike does not talk as much as he does Only if Wike is more tactful Only if Wike is more of action than talk Only if Wike is more humble and graceful
He would have been one of the biggest political leaders of our times. His political charisma is enduring and truly, a lot of Nigerians openly or secretly admire him, but he talks and brag too much. He lacks the finesse befitting of a statesman. He is also boastful.
Wike mismanaged Fubara. No doubt, Fubara made some early ugly moves, but so did Fashola and Ambode in Lagos but Tinubu managed them. Wike's lack of tact, made him to order the 27 House of Assembly guys to decamp to APC. That was Fubara's saving grace. Fubara saw the error and moved on it. Wike is yet to recover from that error. Imagine now that he is firmly in control of the PDP structure in Rivers, of what use is the decamping of the Assembly guys to APC to him? I guess he was betrayed by some elements in the Villa who must have advised him to make that move, promising him the full backing of the President in impeaching Fubara once APC is in firm majority in the assembly. He forgot that even Tinubu could not remove Fashola or Ambode through impeachments despite also being in firm control of the Lagos House of Assemblies at the time. All of these reek of lack of tack and strategy on the part of Wike. Once you begin to talk and boast too much, you begin to lose your reverence.
Silence is a better show of strength, than boastful talk and vain glory. Someone should pass this piece to Nyesome Wike, if they really love him. And he needs better strategists and handlers. He is currently making a poor show of himself and he may go down for it if he is not careful
Shalom The APC State chairman said that the 27 house of Assembly guyz were never a member of the APC . The news was here on Nairaland. So, no error made!* |

The fact you believed there's a good politician in Nigeria shows the level of your intelligence. There was no time he uses 50 convoys cos i used to live close to his house when he was in power on Peter Sarki road off Bay Clinic road. I wouldn't know about the number of aides though |

People would be blaming government, questioning the football club they support for not winning the league yet they can't even say this is what they have achieved since they have been condemning others. Before blaming the government, are you saying your success is tied with government?
Before questioning others, have you questioned yourself? Now , this reply is Epic! Thank you  |
Christianity Etc › Re: Idowu Iluyomade Resigns Pastoral Appointment With RCCG by IamCookie(f): 8:48pm On Jun 09, 2024 |
sweetrace: Jesus dined with people who were not Christians. The first time Jesus performed a miracle was at a wedding. The bible did not say it was that of a religious leader. People ate , drank, and had a good time at the wedding. The pastor and his wife celebrated the party with people you feel are not Christians. If you had been alive when Jesus walked on earth, I hope you would not have joined the Pharisees and Sadducees to criticise Jesus.
People talking about the Igwe’s being large financiers of the church forget something. The Bible says to not tell a rich man come and sit in this prominent seat, and the poor man sit in this insignificant one. Poor people have died in the church. No one stopped their plans because of them. Why should the rich be treated differently.
Jesus talked about a poor woman who gave her last coin as an offering. He said even though her offering was so small, it was seen as more than the huge offerings by the rich. Hers was a sacrifice while theirs was a drop in the ocean of their wealth. I am sure the pastor and his wife would definitely have mourned with the Igwe family. But to treat them based on the size of their contributions would have been so wrong.

Politics › Re: Tinubu's Silence And Unreported Achievements - Tunde Rahman by IamCookie(f): 6:13pm On Jun 03, 2024 |
TheOgaBoss: achievements are felt, not communicated. when ur policies work, the effects will be felt and u don't need to communicate it, when the federal roads are all good, people playing it don't need to be told, when there is security, people don't need to be told...etc. There is always a time lag between when policies are implemented and felt. May not necessarily be immediate. That is my point . Communication about its benefits and FAQs for those that might wanna know more is key. |

Like Reno Omokri opined , Tinubu administration need to do more in terms of communicating to Nigerians about what they are doing or what they have done. By this , Nigerians will be able to assess and evaluate the impact in real time.

In Life , I have learnt to never say never.
There is this friend of ours , whom we thought wasn't meeting up in most spheres we felt matters and as a result quite a number of us had the believe that she may not do so well after all. But we were all wrong. Nature proved us all wrong...
Now , almost everyone wants to identify with her. Today's realities made her selective and I believe it was a function of the relationship that existed in the past.
At times, it is hardly the fault of the bigger levels .... Do good always and no downgrading cos u just never can tell. |

DestinyNigga: If Igbo have Biafra today, can Yoruba and Hausa unite together and form one country? The reason why your region is begging for Nigeria unity is that you know that you can't survive without one Nigeria. You don't like Igbos and you don't want Igbos in your region. We are not asslickers like ur region. There may be no need for unity to forming one country but there can be unity to grow through trade , R&  in specific areas , training among others. Both regions can feel much comfortable in dealings... What do you mean by begging ? Oh! Maybe you mean insulting almost every other tribe and believing you are superior to others , yet your leaders are always asking for the support and crawling at the feet of Yoruba leaders to be able to grow . I guess you didn't know that y'all cannot boast of self sufficiency in any area without reckoning with the other parts of the country , so it will be fallacious form any numero uno. There is no where in my response to the person I quoted that I said Yorubas do not like Igbo or want them in our region , but your empty head is stylishly looking for ways to change the narrative so that others can join and help you out. |

Tinubu sponsored same Yoruba Nation agitators before the 2023 General elections as Plan B in case Buhari refused to hand power over to Tinubu. Yoruba Nation agitators even waved flags of Yoruba Nation in front of London Chatham House while Tinubu was speaking inside the House. Thank you sir. Your level of intelligence is well noted |

That when you will know the full meaning of OYO. You have succeeded in making enemy with your Southern brothers. Noone or tribe has succeeded in making an enemy ..it simply shows that you have never been friend with your brothers from the outset.
