just told by an insider dt d tenants in aso rock ar jittery now. Pdp shd av great reasons for sleepless nights henceforth. Operation back to d drawing board!

mtcheew, as if Obj himself is a saint! Goodluck just happened to hav d badluck of coming unto d podium at a time when his style of governance couldn't help a nation in dire need of urgent measures. atrocities were committed in their numbers under d right watch of Obj himself. or make I start dey list them? he's just a self-installed Godfather who wants to supervise every minute aspect of governance, pple like him wouldn't retire unless they are forced to. she reason he fell out with Yaradua and same reason he would not normally endorse Buhari.

his victory in d primaries shd be expected if truly Apc is what it calls itself. Atiku is far frm representing any change; he belongs to d establishmnt. congrats to GMB in advance, ur victory will definitely make d coming elections exciting, and Pdp must certainly sit up.

op. welldone, dis is what Nigeria needs in dis troubling period of insecurity; promptness in availing information. evil would not have thrived had all of us not shown indifference whenever it rears it's ugly head. i'm sure d relevant agencies hav their presence on NL cos dats how it's done in sane climes. u ve given enough clues. God bless u, God bless Nairaland, God bless Seun d more for creating d platform.

its against dis criminals' creed to die peacefully, each time they lie low, we know they re plotting something dangerous & suicidal. But I hav a dream, a dream dt one day, our military wd av all necessary resources, courage& locals`support n take d battle to their dens & finish d whole madness once n for all. enough of dis decimating our gallant officers bit-by-bit. seems d strategy of cordoning off, blocking their supply sources isn't working. Routes to sambisa frm neighbouring countries like cameroun n chad ar just too many &leaking.

I swear no serious Pdp would dance on dis. Its bad, real bad news for dem. as events unfold in d days ahead, every nigerian wd see d battleline clearly drawn! d buhari image of today is far far different frm d buhari u knew in 2011, no thanks to d transformational fresh air! some ar now arguing dt having a Xtian or Muslim president doesn't necessarily matter as it has neither protected or promoted our collective interest which is good life for all.

d outcome of dis primary wd let me see whether d followership is truly in need of change or we are all hypocrites blaming d leaders while corruption is deep in us. I know d source of d dollars, its in his blood, believes everybody has a price tag.

nice news for Apc, Accord, Labour & Pdp will only share remnant votes including those of thugs & stomach-infrastructure beneficiaries. Easy ride for Apc

Sad news. another genius is gone. RIP

whatever d details, whatever d number, still count on our support & wellwishes all d time.

Sensational journalism at its best. Dis s even a layman's language being given contrary headlines. who's gonna pay who here? Oyinlola says let's sleep but MTN says let's bury it once & for all cos I don't trust u. pray where's money involved here? Olorun gba mi o. Chineke. Baba monganna!

I think talks of change in Lagos only exists in d imagination of card-carrying party members, Lagosians are a bit more politically aware than an average Nigerian (no offence). No sane principal changes a winning team. Agbaje would av had upper hand on a fact dt public opinion is against one man sitting at d top dictaating everything for such a long time,Tinubu is like Ghaddafi, (we know how part of Lagos treasures are steadily filling a pocket, family &friends things, we know when it was about getting too much how fashola wanted to disobey & how being d sole custodian of d political structure, he unleashed d powers of HA led by ikuforiji on d guvnor, threatening impeachmnt, but recall wots happening in Libya after d forceful exit of Ghaddaf) but d tot of taking him out & handing d reins to a more greedy criminal like George seems discouraging. even frm d results, we know Koro camp is equally large, pdp being a party where everyone does what he likes, can they iron out their differences within reasonable time b4 election? How do they want to compensate koro who left ministerial role to vie? Jimi is well known but Lagosians will easily trust apc candidate too remembering how a relatively obscure fashola sneaked in to perform such wonders. d not-too-palatable scorecard at d centre may also be an undoing for pdp dis time around, effects wd be felt at state level. Remember there's no more (crooked) strategic support frm Adedibu or Obasanjo of those days, if I lie, ask Omisore, Akala, Arapaja, Kamoru adedubu etc etc..

wordsmiths sha. But seriously, I need some tutorial in analytical reasoning. I suppose pdp is old & apc new. d parties are d instrumnts (baskets) woth which d mentioned individuals intended to achieve their goals. they dumped one(old) for d other (new). as for dumping sites & expiry blah blah, I can't remember sighting it anywhere dt pdp dumped or expelled dis so-called expired entities, I guess its d other way round. my 1 kobo for pdp is to leave rhetorics, do more homework & stop under-estimating dis formidable foes of theirs, else they pull rugs frm under their feet in their respective states. anyways, i siddon dey look all of una.

with ur resume, u re good to go! Peradventure u finally get into Alausa, pls never derail frm BRF's steps, rather build on it & it shall be well with u. Let Lasgidi be like a million years ahead of its runner up. Eko o ni baje o.

B4 nko? wot do u expect frm a typical naija politician? a thug for dt matter. not as if bode george & his gangs' hands are clean anyway.

A writing on d wall! Abuja should be on d red alert. Or could it be dt they didn't get d needed support frm d centre or pure democracy at work? We still await d bauchi result to know of d fct minister's. dis guys hav fed too fat in abuja & lost touch with d grassroots. tufiakpa!

not as if Xtianity is faring better under a Xtian president frm all indications, I guess guys don't really know how much of xtianity has bn wiped off d face of d earth in Nigeria in d last couple years. for ur information, d muslim/xtian stats has bn heavily altered in NIgeria, no thanks to corruption in d miltary, an offshoot of d larger society. A full stop has bn put to many generations of xtianity in d N/E if u don't know. dis could av bn nipped in d bud had our leadership gotten their priorities right. Maitatsine began on a large scale in kano &yola in d mid 80s killing & maiming with such intense as never witnessed b4, but d muslim govt then eradicated every single soul of them within days then. Not campaigning for any politician, but I think all religions would flourish if human conditions are better irrespective of d religion of d leadership. Are muslims not enjoying life better in US, UK than Somalia, Yemen or Afghanistan? I think urgent problems need urgent solutions as we hav at hand now.

These are interesting times for Lagos n lagosians, Eko baje ti! They av two good products to choose from; whichever way d pendulum swings, its to their advantage, 2proven gentlemen, 2proven technocrats. Both ar good sell unlike dis Koro of a thug. But wait o, am I d only one seeing something, I mean dis ministers just losing enmasse? I hop its not a sign of rejection of abuja already, ... Emeka wogu, labaran maku, onyeHealth, obaniKoro etc etc.

GMB/fashola, to many, is as good as muslim/xtian or as GMB/oshio or GMB/rochas. Naija has more urgent issues to address than be distracted again by religion. But if pple insist, buhari handlers, who ar doing a great job of recent, (they made him to publicly denounce bokoharam & even attend FG organized national program) can settle for Rochas to accommodate d core xtian S/E and S/S.

fr3do:
Their elites and clerics failed them the most, a culture of violence has been in the north since time immemorial, they didn't speak out or fight against it because southerners and Christians were the only people affected. How long did they think the violence won't turn against them?

Thank God, here down south, our elites and clerics helped stop outright violence from yeye groups like bakassi and opc. Wonder what the situation would have been if they were left?

. oh yes!

not a fan of mr Jonathan though, but its not as if Obj is spotless. talking of selfishness, was it not out of his selfish calculations dt yaradua&jona emerged? Why was he not in talking terms with yaradua b4 his demise? what does he not know about Uncle Bola's murder & what has he done about it all dis while? why doesn't he have either a solid Yoruba support or a political structure to call his own? ....mtchew at ”selfish”

Nice, its well with ur soul. a man shall not be a loser by any of his losses unless he be impatient with them. Good thing is, u ve given ur best for a beginner status. try again nxt time n don't ever be discouraged, d Lord's ur strenght.

warreva! Baba Adedibu, d erstwhile Alaafin of Molete is no longer around to anoint dis gangsters. Oyo won't ever return to d politics of brigandage dt brought dis guys to limelight.

Its expected, PdP needs.ribadu badly to shore up their image in d N/E, same strategy APc has adopted everywhere else. Good for d polity. Adamawa has particularly bn unlucky in d current republic, hope they will.get it right with ribadu whether by selection or election.

Op, dis two gentlemen, Umana & Bagudu are no shove-asides. May be u don't know but they ve made good reputations for themselves long b4 APC. Its only expected dt d party wd need them to present strong contenders against d ruling one.

Oh my oh! Lagos is d true centre of Excellence! They continue getting it right over there. Tinubu for now is a smart salesman, selling what pple need!

Okijajuju1:
Indeed it is unlike me.. Infact, I had to think over the matter severally before posting and I maintain my stance..

A husband of 8 years passes away at what I am guessing is a young age and his widow is online less than 3 days later announcing his death to a largely unknown group just to get sympathy responses, likes and shares? Or what exactly? And she was even still online monitoring the post to see the responses. .

Madam please forgive me but this strikes me as very odd.. I suffered a loss this year (pregnancy) and that shiit really put me out for weeks.. And here we are talking about someone's husband of 8 years who passed on less than 4 days ago. I would expect her to be so distraught and surrounded by family that her focus would not even be on her phone let alone a forum.

It's either I am over thinking this or I have lost the plot of what it means to grieve the loss of one's spouse.

The time frame is just too short for comfort..

. Okija, sorry for ur pain too. I always respect ur opinions, but pple grieve differently; some prefer to be alone n remain incommunicado, some go riverside; some can't stay without pple holding n feeding them, some cry n some just smile while some wd even be d ones consoling d guests, etc. hope u remember Nasir elrufai, do u wonder why he's always d one dt announces to d world via his twitter handle each time he loses a loved one. I don't consider dt out of place sha.

”Be still, Ego, and know dt I am the Lord” we shdnt be asking why, for He and He alone knows d reason. I believe dt joy shall return to ur family sooner than we expect. thou shall smile n laugh again in no distant time; so said d Lord our comforter. d spirit of those u ve contributed to their help shall not leave ur family unattended to sis. Accept our condolences, this's truly a trying time.

me like: jonathan/ribadu VS GMB/BRF or GMB/Oshio or GMB/Okorocha. it would hav made d political landscape more exciting in 2015 sha.
