Politics › Re: Sign this Petition to End the Impunity in Lagos! by Jokerman(m): 6:54am On Jan 30, 2019
Johnsghana:
TLDR: If you are too young to remember when Tinubu was Governor, he built his base from way back then. Ambode bit the fingers that fed him and Tinubu will not allow Ambode to ruin his political career. The rest is shaku shaku �

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

I don't like commenting on social media or the internet because there are so many people who always give opinions about situations they clueless about as if they were professionals. And yet, you people complain about fake news.� Also, the inability of many people to have intelligible conversation without resorting to insults and invectives is just off putting.

So, let me tell you internet warriors about real life politics, case in point - Tinubu. By the way, for the purpose of full disclosure - Tinubu is my role model and one day I hope to be like him when I grow up. Tinubu is what you call an enigma and an altruistic leader that is a true Patriot. If you know anything about politics in Nigeria, you will know that all elections are won and lost at ward level. The number of wards you control and deliver will determine the votes you will get come elections day.

Having said that, Tinubu knows every ward leader, ward women leader, ward youth leader and most excos by their first names. They all go to him with their problems especially their constituents needs. Have you ever wonder why they are all so loyal to him? He gives everyone a fair chance based on the potential they demonstrate at local level. I know people who have been following him since the days of Alliance for Democracy (1999) till date. Many young guys have gotten opportunities to get into political office because of him. How many old men do see in the ranks of APC in Lagos? Once you spend two or at most three terms in office, you have to leave for another person to take up that mantle. This way everyone get a chance at it.

Don't stay on the internet and think you know what the pepper seller on the street thinks of politics. Shockingly these illiterates are more active politically than most of you hiding behind your keyboards and keypads. They are the ones that will queue in sun on elections day for hours unend. They are the ones attending rallies and campaigns. They have more skin in the game than me and you, period.

Back to the matter, Tinubu successfully changed the pace for funding and LASG financially in Lagos when he stood up to Obasanjo, who thought he could starve Lagos of funds just to win Lagos for PDP. Imagine Fayose was Lagos Governor then, will Lagos have survived the onslaught of the " Federal Might" starving of funds to run his govt? Tinubu's creativity manufactured funds to keep the state running at a time when all other states were looking to FG for majority of their funding needs. Since then, LASG IGR has been on the steady rise.

And those talking about how Tinubu is enriching himself with govt funds and getting greedier by the day, ask Banky W or any of the other internet celebrities contesting for public office after the elections how much they spent and how easy was it for them mobilize people without doling out raw cash in massive quantities. Politics in Nigeria is too expensive, Nigerians are greed and want to have as much as possible for themselves alone without being bother about the source of the money they are grabbing, hence the rise of Yahoo plus or Money rituals. Not that I am saying it can't be better, how many politicians invest locally? Tinubu is putting whatever is left from the sharing amonst the party faithfuls back into the economy of Lagos. He invests in the biggest companies and embarks on the most ambitious projects, creating several thousands of jobs in Lagos. Ask in your state of origins what your Governor or legislator is doing with the money he is stealing from govt coffers besides stashing them abroad.

We need more politicians like Tinubu to reinvest and circulate the stolen wealth of this country. A time will come when all those assests will fall back into the hands of the govt and will become our collective benefit once again but in the mean time let it generate value for the people by investments that create jobs and money for many other who cannot join the political parties ranks.

About Ambode - my look alike, his political inexperience got the better of him. Tinubu fell out of favor with many of his supporters when he presented him as his choice. And as many of the dissents foretold, Ambode's inability to grasp the complexity of Lagos's massive political machinery became obvious as soon as he assumed office. For APC to remain intact and not loose members to other political parties, Tinubu needed to stand behind the popular demand for Ambode's removal as he was redistributing the common wealth to a few personal friends from his secondary school days in FGC Warri.

Ambode had poor PR skills on top of it all. He didn't know how juggle the balls of rapporteur and communication with important members of his party. Party Stalwarts found it very difficult to get audience with him as the usual excuse was him being busy. Meanwhile pictures of him balling at Quilox flodded the internet, if you were one of these grassroots politicians who is always beisged daily by throngs of expectant supporters for the dividends of loyalty, how would you feel? Please don't confuse your one vote for the hunderds a Ward mobilizer can deliver by just pointing his own people in whichever direction he so wishes. These people are in all countries, even in UK and US - they are called fancier names like influencers, etc.

In my own opinion and experience, Ambode's biggest failure was not surrounding himself with experienced political advisers. He was very new to politics and as we all do when we are not too knowledgeable about any field, we get help from teachers or senior colleagues. Rather he went about dismantling all the good work Fashola had done - Fashola was the only person that ever had a chance to at breaking Tinubu's powerbase in Lagos, everybody liked him for his progressive nature and he had also been a student of the Master all the while he was Tinubu's Chief of staff.

Ambode has committed political suicide in Lagos, except another party takes the reigns in Lagos. Tinubu however, has reinvented himself as the leader that listens to his followers and he will be strong politically for it in the days ahead.
Lagos is now better than Dubai, Capetown, Cairo, Newyork etc because of Tinubu..

Tinubu wife, Pepperito(oshinowo) etc have not use up to 3 terms abi.....

cococandy:
There’s poor pay in the movie industry doesn’t mean that those who make money must be making it from prostitution. That’s the point you refuse to understand. You can simply say you wonder how they make their money instead of swearing on your life that they are prostitutes.

Please say only what you know for sure. Not what you think might be the case.
