I respect Tinubu and crown him the leader. The Lion Of Nigeria Oplitics today.
He has become more powerful than ever in Country.

Guess why he is so Powerful? Because we trust him to lead us in Yoruba land. if he pushes us to the ocean we gave him the power.
We are teaching other tribes how to make your region relevant in the Nigeria polity.

No Hausa man will ever joke with us because if we turn our back on you? you are finished

PrettySleek:
Am wowed by your manner of reasoning. Jealous of what exactly? Having money, cars or good clothes, or having her entire life posted on social media for d world to see? Just because u hv shallow thoughts doesn't mean everyone thinks like u. Am not insulting u tho so don't take it d wrong way. Am just saying. If I am jealous of what someone has I work towards getting mine, I don't go ranting online like a kid.

Homeboiy:
Egedege ife mu

wolesmile:
I just hope Igbos realize on time that this whole Hausa/Igbo issue is more like pulling a tiger by the tail. If Hausas should start, Igbos will lose so much. I mean "SO MUCH!"

mofeoluwadassah:

davodyguy:
He's owing Amcon 100 billion naira

fineboynl:
an Igbo man told me Ohanaeze is more like a political party. they love more sharing and negotiations bid that will benefit them for a sell out. that's why the IBO youth don't take them serious. its very east to buy an IBO man.


no wonder Nnamdi KANU commands more respect, he has showed himself to be different from all other movement. and the IBO youth and strongly behind KANU.

salford1:
Otedola alone probably pays more tax than all those congregation of spare part and okrika sellers littered all around dirty markets in lagos.

I am actually suprised you limited your claim to 50%. 99% would have been more appropriate . Evans people dem.

SBG04:
I don't understand the madness I'm seeing on this thread. Nigeria is ranked amongst the most corrupt countries in the world. A member of this corrupt elite that has put Nigeria on that corrupt list is searched and you people are screaming. What is wrong with you people?? Aren't you tired of the no power situation? or the bad roads? or the useless hospitals? Why are you angry that the people responsible for all these ills are being made to account for their indiscretions?

OnankpaBa:
yeye IPOB. as if they can bark. Buratai is there to do his work as usual

Insult me and watch how thunder will fire you.

tiger28:
Has anyone noticed how his people are ALREADY defending him??These ppl really need prayers. For the past few weeks now,NIA DG Mr Oke (yorubaman) Has been in the news for stashing dollars in ikoyi apartment. NONE of his kinsmen ever came out to defend him but this other folks are KNOWN to support stealing on any level. Biafrans need to get it together in order to move up to third class citizens.

Jessidaisy4:
Goddamn! This is overload, not attractive. Say NO to waist trainers. Work out if you desire a flat tummy

admax:
Before you guys start yabbing Nigerian leaders remember President Bill Clinton of the same United States slept with his aide Ms. Monica Lewinsky few years ago!

He admitted to the affair and didn't resign neither was he impeached, so please chill

US election 2016 results: Trump takes commanding lead over Clinton


Republican candidate Donald Trump is edging closer to the US presidency after a string of shock swing state victories over Hillary Clinton.
He won Florida, Ohio, Iowa and North Carolina, while Democrat Mrs Clinton took Virginia and Nevada. Pennsylvania is too close to call.
New Hampshire, Michigan and Wisconsin - which were meant to be part of the Clinton firewall - are deadlocked, too.
Markets lurched as Mrs Clinton's path to victory began to narrow.

The US dollar and Mexican peso plummeted while the Dow futures dropped 800 points.
Mr Trump is closing in on the 270 out of 538 electoral college votes needed to declare victory.
His Ohio win was a big boost, as no Republican has ever taken the White House without winning the Midwestern bellwether.

Iowa last voted for a Republican in 2004.
The mood is dark at Mrs Clinton's election night party in New York City.

Supporters were crying and staring stony-faced at the big screens showing election results.
At Trump headquarters across town, his fans were cheering and chanting about the Democratic nominee: "Lock her up!"

Mood of despair - Nick Bryant, BBC News, New York City

Hillary Clinton's supporters thought they'd arrived for a victory party, and the roofing at the convention centre in New York doubled as a metaphor - a giant glass ceiling ready, symbolically at least, to be shattered.
But under it the mood fast changed to concern and fretfulness as early all-important swing states, like Florida and Ohio, went to Donald Trump. Nervousness turned to utter disbelief as reliably blue Democratic states like Michigan and Wisconsin looked to be turning red.
The famed blue wall, which has made the Democrats so strong in presidential politics, looked to be crumbling before their eyes. Now the mood is one of despair.


In other developments:

Republicans are expected to retain control of the Senate and House of Representatives
California voted to legalise recreational marijuana, which could lead to the creation of the largest market for marijuana products in the US
Failed Republican presidential candidate Marco Rubio won his bid for re-election in Florida's Senate race
Mr Trump earlier racked up wins in the Midwest and South, while Mrs Clinton swept the Northeast, ABC News projects.

As expected, the Republican candidate was victorious in the Republican strongholds of Utah, Alabama, Kentucky, South Carolina, Nebraska, Indiana, West Virginia, Mississippi, Tennessee, Oklahoma and Texas, ABC projects.
And he took Georgia, Missouri, Montana, Louisiana, Arkansas, Kansas, North Dakota, South Dakota, Idaho and Wyoming - all solidly conservative states.

Mrs Clinton won the Democratic heartlands of California, Oregon, New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Massachusetts, Maryland, Vermont, Delaware, Illinois, Rhode Island, Hawaii, Washington and District of Columbia, as well as New Mexico and Colorado.

Mr Trump, a 70-year-old Manhattan real estate tycoon, and Mrs Clinton, who 69, would be the first US female president, voted on Tuesday in New York City.

Mr Trump was booed as he arrived to cast his ballot at a school in Manhattan, alongside his wife, Melania, and daughter, Ivanka.
The two presidential hopefuls are spending election night in New York City, staging events barely a mile apart.

Mrs Clinton will address supporters at the Javits Centre in Manhattan, while Mr Trump holds an event at the Hilton Midtown hotel.
More than 5,000 police officers have been deployed across America's biggest city to keep order on election night.
On Tuesday, Mr Trump again declined to say whether he will accept the results.
"We're going to see how things play out," he told Fox News, while alleging there had been voting irregularities. "I want to see everything honest."
Some polling locations have reported equipment failures and long lines, but they appeared to be routine problems.

Mr Trump, who stoked conspiracies over the legitimacy of the democratic process during the campaign by claiming the vote would be "rigged", also filed an emergency lawsuit in Nevada.
The Republican's camp sued the Clark County Registrar of Voters, alleging the state had kept early voting stations open late.
But a judge rejected the request.
All 50 states and Washington DC voted across six different time zones.


Americans also had a chance to determine which party holds sway in Congress.
All 435 seats in the House of Representatives were up for grabs, and a third of seats in the Senate, but Republicans looked likely to keep control of both chambers.
A record number of Americans - more than 45 million - voted early by post or at polling stations.


Mr Trump, a populist political newcomer, provoked controversy on the campaign trail for comments about women, Muslims and a plan to build a wall along the US-Mexican border.
Mrs Clinton saw her campaign dogged by FBI investigations into whether she abused state secrets by operating a private email server during her time as US secretary of state.
Last Sunday, the law enforcement bureau cleared her once again of any criminality.
Mr Trump and Mrs Clinton are seeking to succeed Democratic President Barack Obama.
After two four-year terms in the White House, he is barred by the US constitution from running for re-election.
