And another thing is: Tinubu is your enemy. Why should he make a Hausa man President, Yoruba man VP and he couldn't even make you the Senate President or Speaker of the House. If he cannot do that why won't he give you small Lagos? All he did was to start the the process giving you mere commissionership when he was governor. He and Fashola must be disgraced for this almajiri pittance.

It happens to me. My own is that sometimes when I want to talk I will feel tears forming in my eyes and when I talk I may cry. Until I read this book, "The new spirit controlled woman." it is a book for females but it talked about temperament very well. I began to understand why I behave the way I do. You can't fight who you are it will always swim back no matter what, but you can convert your weakness to strength with the help of the Holy Spirit.

This is the first time i will be commenting on the speech by the oba of lagos, to the average person or mind, it is a ridiculous statement, but looking at it from a political lense, it has become a case of the more you look, the less you see.

The Pdp
The oba's statements to the best of my understanding was not a public one, it was deliberately leaked by agents who taught it could be used to the advantage of the pdp's candidate in lagos since there is not religious cards to be played, ethnic card they jumped at it. (they never learn)

The Apc
The apc was thrown into disarray, they momentum of winning at the center had suffered a setback, while many rushed to denounce the statement, the strategists saw and opportunity and they helped LOUD to music (forgive my english)

The Igbos
As expected, they were mad at the statement and rightly so, they also didn't fail to overblow it. It is expected that the igbos will give 90% of there votes to the pdp but something amazing happened in the last few days, i have seen more igbos (influential leaders) sit at the same tables with Apc chiefs (this would never have happened without this crisis) i have seen many igbo leaders accept apologies and even endorsed the Apc candidate. I have seen igbos in Apc wears and campaign buses around ladipo and alaba.

The yorubas
We expected the yorubas to give 40- 30% of their votes to jimi agbaje because a lot of them had chosen to vote the Apc at the center and the pdp in lagos, like it or not jimi is also yoruba BUT the tide has turned, the direct attacks on their Oba and the claim that lagos is no man's land coupled with jimi's overly courting the igbos at their detriment has irritated a lot of them. The yorubas won't do a shouting match, they act with a devastating bile (ask gej)

Jimi Agbaje
Agbaje also played to the gallery by making silly statements rather than being gentlemanly since the ball was in his court, he displayed obvious influence from bode George and obanikoro, this is not the jimi we know but the god's father push.

Obiagelli
I am indifferent to both candidates, as my fanatic support for the apc does not go beyond buhari and maybe elrufai and fashola. I can't wait to see the results.

VOTE NOT FIGHT.

[b]Do you know the Federal Govt takes about 54% of the nation's revenue ? The states share about 46%. Lagos despite having about 20million people to cater for and all the federal infrastructures abandoned for her when the capital was moved to Abuja, it takes just 55billion anually as allocation while Akwa Ibom recieves 135billion, Rivers 99.67billion, Delta 95.77, Bayelsa 82.04, now tell me, which of these other states have achieved what Lagos has achieved under the genius of Tinubu and Fashola which has been her past/present governors?

Do you know at a point, for years, The federal government wthheld lagos state government allocations totally and Bola Tinubu and Ambode the then acountant general of lagos state had to work together to be creative and work out the genius of running lagos? Just consider the level pressure on infrastructure in lagos, consider the demand for social amenities and compare what lagos gets to these other states and the FG. Mind you, lagos does not have oil revenue, and the Nigerian ports revenue people usually refer to are going to the federal purse. Nigerian Ports Authority is a Federal Parastatal. Somany people confuse it to be a source of state revenue. As at now, FG is owing Lagos 40 billion.[/b]

cheruv:
it was reported that during the July '66 crisis that when soldiers killed their Igbo counterparts in coldblood,they usually answered briefly the name of the people they've killed.
am sure that syndrome is worrying you... whether you're Igbo or not has been decided by your post

splashbaby:
Who are Aworis? Heegbos? Aworis speaks a kind of Yoruba dialect.

ItsMeAboki:
Yes oO!
After their leaders have robbed them blind, they'll ignorantly shift the blame to others and call them parasites; instead of holding the real culprits, their leaders, accountable.

See how Kwankwaso is transforming his state, Kano, with his relatively smaller allocation.
