Banky W is just another Desmond Eliot waiting to happen

If you be Banky, your nyash no go scratch you to hammer? When your boy WizKid is selling out stadiums like O2 and Madison Square, probably taking £2m gross from each show, small boy you picked from Ojuelegba, and you didn't even really make money when he was signed to you. Banky no fit carry last abeg.

donjazet:
So what do you advise we the youths to do? Fold our arms and follow you and laugh at how the politicians are mocking us to our faces and sharing our wealth for themselves?

Give into the hopelessness and sorrowful pain of the situation. I get that you're now safe in UK but you could at least join in the struggle to lobby for us to make efforts in changing the situation.

Oga hope is lost. Na japa remain, or to enjoy the game of thrones between these thieves.

larride:
Ask them what were Peter Obi achievements and legacy projects in Anambra now and you will start hearing insults here and there.

Someone that couldn’t grow the IGR of the state for 8yrs. Messiah indeed.

The only candidate I see who has performed an economic miracle at any level that can even be remotely compared to Nigeria is Tinubu

What Tinubu did in Lagos is still unprecedented and 100 times better than any other Naija politician who just collect state allocation and spend on white elephant projects while increasing their state debts. Tinubu is the only Governor whose investments generate ROI commensurate with the investment.

And Naija problem is still 100 times bigger than him because he can never have a solution to insecurity and a mono economy

larride:
Peter Obi the messiah ready to turn Nigeria into the new Dubai the same way he turn Anambra into the toast of the whole world.

Wetin the Peter Obi do for Anambra sef. Na so Donald Duke and Osinbajo make noise. Thieves in technocrat clothing.

Nobody can change Naija, it's even beyond military Govt power now.

As far as I'm concerned, anything PDP or APC is trash, even Banky W.

larride:
It depends on the state and the political actors there.

For example, in a state like Oyo where APC is the opposition and with no clear political leader since Ajimobi died, the delegates will swing mostly to whoever can offer them the most package.

Compared to a state like Osun with an APC Governor, the delegates from there will mostly be the Governor loyal associates and they will be elected as delegates to do the bidding of the Governor and they will do so because they will need the Governor to further their own ambition also.

Delegate election is a brutal election. If you don’t have the structure, you will lose bigly.

But the Osun guys go still collect the money and vote with their Governor. Shebi they don't have to return it?

Congrats to Jose Mario Santos Mourinho.. One goal is enough. Tuchel and Apari should learn from him.

The first to win the Champions League, the Europa League and the Conference League.

Smalling wins man of the match. God punish man utd board. Is Smalling not better than lindelof and the fridge?

Smalling is your best defender only be say he is so clumsy when passing the ball

raumdeuter:
It we want to talk plenty things and not face the reality on ground, lets continue to deceive ourselves and think twiteratti matters

I think Obi made an irrational decision to leave PDP because that might be the end of his dream to become anything in Nigerian politics

He left APGA, left PDP where will he go next? He doesnt have the money of Tinubu or Atiku to buy himself into a major party

And take note this is a 2 party system. America with over 300yrs democracy has not been able to do anything about this 2 party politics for centuries

Baba should have stuck around for the hope of a ministerial position if PDP wins

raumdeuter:
In 2015 we heard Atiku was sharing $5k and Tinubu bitchslapped him with $7k per delegate to get Buhari the ticket
In 2019, we heard that Atiku $10K per delegate was what won the ticket when dem Saraki were doing $5k each

This is 2023 with Putin inflation, rising prices and now theyve reduced the number of delegates so a delegate vote of 2023 is like 2.5 of 2019

Also 2019 was a long shot at removing a very popular brand like Buhari, 2023 is a more realistic chance of actually becoming president

If you are a delegate and anyone offer you less than $20K return am. Sir Larride will double it

Hahahaha.

Dem done reduce delegate numbers?

Na him be say bonanza don set.

Atiku hit $9k last time. If delegate numbers done half, $30k from the big boys is not out the question.

raumdeuter:
When Peter Obi heard the dollar amount delegates were asking for he gave himself brain

If you dey near Abuja this weekend your life don better. Most likely na $200k per delegate go settle this matter

Hahahaha. Obi know say him money no long like that. Delegate settlement no go pass $12k, but dem go collect some $ks from like 5 or 6 candidate plus small change from the small boys like Pius Anyim etc. Delegates plenty to settle.

Atiku and Wike go reach $8k-$12k

Saraki go reach $8k if he has a chance, if not he go drop out at $5k

Everybody else will drop out at $1k to $3k, then the small boys will drop like $500 to mark register. Udom suppose hit $3k before realising his chances are slim.

If Kwankwaso still dey, he would be sure to hit $3k like last time

Delegates go collect like $30k total.

Saraki has a chance cos he's got friends among the main power players in most states and they instruct their delegates how to vote regardless of the egunje on offer. Saraki has no enemies in PDP while Wike has plenty, but the states Wike wins, he will collect all the delegates, while Saraki will collect a portion from every state except Rivers, Katsina and AkwaIbom. Atiku is lazy but has money to buy the whole ticket. Saraki is actually politicking well, collecting small favour from almost every state and big numbers from Kano. Also Saraki is used to working with the whole country as former speaker.

I still favour Atiku slightly but Wike and Saraki have a very good chance. As the night progress sha, the winner will be clear.

raumdeuter:
Is there a possibility for an Atiku Wike ticket with Atiku as President

Wike no too resemble who go accept Vice. Plus Igbos hate Wike so he's a liability in SE

raumdeuter:
NNPP ko, NNPC ni

Maybe he will go back to APGA

For him to resign from PDP that means Atiku VP sef was off the table

South East no go vote because of IPOB

Who Atiku we'd go come choose now? I guess it depends on who wins APC primary

donstan18:
Liverpool fans forcing Klopp rivalry on Pep.

Fans of Ancelloti, Mou and Ferguson go talk, Klopp shameless fans go wan talk too, why forcing the Rivalry on Pep? Allow career achievements and records speak for itself nh.

It took him 5 years to win his first trophy with Liverpool.
He’s been relegated.
One EPL in 7 years
Bottled his first 3 European finals.
Turned Liverpool to EPL runner-up FC aka “I gave City Pressure”.


Funny thing is 100% of Chelsea fans here will choose Pep for Chelsea over Klopp.

A wise man does not challenge his chi.

Klopp has UCL final this weekend. Wise man should stay quiet to avoid possibility of instant L by Saturday

Oasis007:


PDPGuy will soon change his Moniker to NNPPGuy.... if the News of Peter Obi leaving the Party is true.

How that calm bro put the most toutish party name in his moniker is still a mystery

50d33q:
Honestly ibime I buy the idea of relegating from fa to Carling
Maybe the finalist of Carling cup playoffs be promoted while the last 2 of fa cup be demoted
It makes the cups competitive

FA Cup place is based on league position

There are 1,000 players trying to get into a 24 team tournament. It can't be done on FA Cup alone.

With that said, you are being relegated to Carling Cup next season

You think say you wise

ono:
Good point. Politicisation of these things is shameful, disgusting, and bad for the country. But you see the entire bandwagon of democrap jump on this to attack innocent politicians for their own evil and selfish gains. Who does not know that the democraps teamed up with China to release the deadly Covid-19 virus on the entire world population so that they can set in motion their rotten, clandestine, and evil plans in motion nationwide to get DJTrump out of office?

Their stock in trade has always been to "fight dirty" when they know they're gonna lose! Evil, foul beings from Hell!!

Go and seek medical help

andrewbaba44:
You should quote raumdeuter and ask him jare

By this I guess Ronaldo should be epl player of the season

Man questioned your logic, you begin laugh your own logic.

Of course a manager who is 2nd, 3rd or 4th best manager every month can win Manager of the Year over managers who gyrate between 1st one month, 20th next month, 15th the following month, then back to 1st again

iamoyindamola:
He's like bowen

Not at all

He's like Steven Gerrard on wings but highly inconsistent

Bowen is like Son, Salah, Diaz type of wing-forward

Bombblacks:
Buyback is never going to happen. Mandatory buy backs don't work. Didn't work in New Jersey when they were "forced" to turn in 15 round mags when they dropped the limit to 10. Didn't work in Australia the last time they did one, only a few hundred showed up. Didn't work in new Zealand when they tried to get rid of the AR15 after the mosque shooting, I dont think anyone showed up to that. I wonder where the US would get money for a buyback, though. According to the internet, there are 434 Million guns in the us; if the government offered $250 each, it would cost
$27,125,000,000 to purchase even 25% of the firearms in circulation.

Buybacks after which it becomes illegal should take 50% off the market

Take away the whole industry from manufacture to sales to repairs, the stubborn will start hiding guns at home in their attic rather than bring it out

And mostly, banning new sales will keep it away from the young which should mean the culture will wipe out in one generation

$27bln is small for Yankee. Guys wey dey pass $1trln bills like water

Officially the end of the Roman empire.
I want you guys to know that I have back tracked from my earlier hard stance position on Roman. I apologize for my extreme position on him. It was naive of me to think that there is a perfect human. My extreme reaction was brought upon by the shock of my findings of his horrible past. I had come to adore and love the man soo much, so when I discovered the skeletons he had, I guess it pushed me to the extreme.

However there comes a time for introspection.
Roman might have acquired his money "uncleanly" but there is no doubt that he put that money to very good use. One that has benefitted every single one of us here. One that has given us soo much joy and happiness and dedication to a club that we wouldn't have otherwise known..

In summary, you too dey jump jump

Amoto94:
Chelsea now intend to model themselves on Liverpool, who have managed to compete with Manchester City for Premier League titles by making signings specifically suited to their manager's footballing philosophy.

This sounds like good news. Make we dey watch.

Bombblacks:
Gun ownership has turned into a religion of sorts in parts of this country, to the point that people put their firearms on the same level of importance to themselves as the Bible and family members. A few years ago when I was in Catholic church, the priest had to request people stop bringing their guns to church. He said that it is a place of worship, to preach love and peace, not a place for weapons. Outlawing guns won't fix this problem though. Only changes in the culture will make less people want guns. Extremely strict laws will just drive the illegal gun market and create more problems, like Prohibition did.

It's not as hard as you make out.

Government only needs to reduce access to guns by 70% to make a big difference

First criminalise sale of guns to the public. That takes new supply out the market

Offer a buyback of guns at double market rate to the citizens for an amnesty period, at the end of which possession will be criminalised.

This demand and supply dynamic will drive the price of illegal guns through the roof so that only those with financial means (and thus a level of mental stability) will be able to get hands on them.

This should take 70% of guns off the market, and stop further guns getting into the hands of new psychos with mental illness yet to reach age of maturity.

Criminals would always have guns, they do the world over, however access to people with mental health issues is too easy and too cheap at the moment. Criminals are more discriminate with their use of guns, your average 16-25 year old going through an emo episode isn't.

nihilistjnr:
When we got to our destination, I paid 40k to one of security guys to do a gun salute for my guy. They sprayed up the place.

Tout!

EmmanuelScott1:
on Ekpa, I think the FG haven't yet petitioned on his extradition.

They must be joking. But nothing surprises me in Nigeria again.

I would continue to say that the gun is a tool of subjugation which European settlers used to chase Indians off their land.

They only needed guns because they came to steal.

The Europe they came from does not have this culture.

I can understand any gun advocate who only carries guns for fear of his fellow citizens also carrying guns. A nuclear arms race between citizens.

EmmanuelScott1:
when Nnamdi kanu was extradited to naija, they didn't believe it (they called it kidnapping), same way Ekpa will be here (it will look unreal to em) Nobody mess with the government, after God nah Government.

I don't even know where Kanu was hiding specifically, but as at the time Kanu was wanted, his group hadn't carried out any terroristic acts to make Britain or Israel give him up.

ESN violence should be enough to make Finland give Ekpa up quickly and easily if they are petitioned

raumdeuter:
See as dem quickly package Sunday Igboho for Cotonou before he starts his own madness

Na from clap, dance dey start.
It will start as against Herdsmen,
later secessionist rhetoric,
later full calling out of non indigenes,
later full calling out of indigenes perceived to be saboteurs,
Later saliva go dry for calling out they start small action,
police will crack down and they escalate it to full blown violence

We are still waiting for Igboho to disappear from Porto Novo prison

One reason I rate Tinubu is he created economic activity for miscreants with tax collection, NURTW etc. His blueprint has done well to quell security collapse from Thugs and miscreants. . . .thus far.

Havertz10:
but it does, if aggregate wage is 20k a year, and average home cost 50k, if that person took a mortgage, he would easily afford to pay for it annually, and still have enough to save and invest, amusingly this was America before they started fighting wars

in Russia, while the mortgage rates might be premium, houses are still affordable, but same can’t be said of America because of inflation

another angle I will give you is the principle angle, if the house is worth 500k and you need 10% as down payment, doesn’t inflation continually price out so many people, talk less the meddling being done by hedge funds because they are running out of investment vehicles

It’s this same America that rent moratorium was passed because people couldn’t pay rent and its prices were skyrocketing

Oga let's leave all that. Russia is a place with more land than people. A nigga in the Siberian tundra can put three sticks in the ground, throw bearskin over the top and call it home. Just like my people in the village can use hands to mould mud into a hut. What I tried to show you is that 17% interest rate is massively debilitating in any economy, so let's cry for that rather than USA or anyone under 5% which is actually my top expectation for monetary policy on the back of the pandemic.

Oasis007:
You and I know una matter don tire Buhari. Python dance.... dem cry. Crocodile smile..... dem wail.

Shey na Snake in the Monkey Shadow dem go appreciate?!

EmmanuelScott1:
Anything that doesn't have head, doesn't not walk, first get their head (Simon Ekpa), give him Nnamdi kanu's treatment. This whole shit will stop.

You mean Ekpa is in Finland and Nigerian Govt haven't requested his extradition? It looks too easy.

izzou:
[color=royalblue]The last time the people tried to disobey the Sit-at-home, you saw what happened.

He should put heavy bounties on the heads of the miscreants. People go betray their brothers for money.

Or better still, meet Wike for tutorials.

[/color]

Wike problem is not Soludo problem.

Ikwerre people are hostile to IPOB, they can only try that shit in Obigbo, and they won't get as much cover from the population, nor villages to run to after commiting in the City. Imagine an IPOB nigga running to a village in Eleme, Etche, Okrika or Ogoni after commiting in PH, nobody will cover for him.

Oasis007:
Absolutely yes..... and massive unrest will follow.

Even after all these?

If FG should hang Nnamdi Kanu, will there be an outcry in Igboland today after the activities of ESN?

Or will the only people to flip out be ESN themselves.

I always avoid people that use hateful and genocidal language and I couldn't believe so many sane Igbo brothers were supporting him after all the hateful and genocidal language he used about other peoples. Oh well, violence starts with the tongue, and here we are.
