Sowore is the most qualified candidate, having a masters from an ivy league university

Can either Buhari or Atiku match that?

sexiestharam:
I am an intelligent Nigerian youth. I would have voted for Durotoye or Sowore or even Oby but my vote would be wasted. Do you know why? Because Nigerians are hungry. You give them 3,000 naira, they will vote for you. I was a Presiding Officer in the north in 2011. In their remote villages, just give them bread and tea or 100 naira. You get their votes. Knowing this fact, it is visible to the blind and audible to the deaf that our next President is either Bubu or Atiku. I will not waste my vote in 2019. Buhari and Atiku are 2 evils but i would choose the evil that is smart and has a reputation of providing jobs. Therefore, i am atikulating in 2019. #Back2Daura.

Chai, poverty is really a bastard sha!

This same question of money politics was posed to Sowore, like how do you stop these evil men from buying voters.

I just wonder why a man will sell keep selling his life every 4 years for bread and rice.

Trust is the problem. Before you get Nigerians to listen to you, you have to speak the language of Nigerians... you need to be eloquent, be knowledgeable, start a campaign of calumny against government for some years, sound believable, deploy a propaganda machinery and make some sacrifice like getting apprehended and jailed. Observe the likes of Obasanjo, Shehu Sani, Nnamdi Kanu etc. I need not mention legends like Mandela

I understand that people need to be able to point to a candidates history, which makes the fact that buhari is president "again" today even more shocking, since we all knew him ONLY as a former Dictator.

Look at Sowore, he has exposed more corruption cases than Mr. Anti-Corruption Buhari himself, using his media outlet Sahara Reporters. Love or hate Sahara, we know that they were on GEJ like white on rice and have been on Buhari's government. For instance, they exposed the fact that the military head was buying houses in Dubai in this government.

The guy built Sahara Reporters from nothing, unlike Buhari, who's achievements outside of politics are non existent.

Don't give me that bullshiit ''not everything is the whites' fault'' slaveboy line. I never said ANYTHING was ''their fault''. I simply asked the guy who requested they ''return to rule'' to GET THE FCK OUT OF HERE.

As for ''getting it right'', it will take SEVERAL DECADES MORE for Nigeria to become a developed country. Perhaps even a century. That is nothing to be ashamed of. Eighty percent of countries on earth are developing nations like Nigeria. It is our colonial mentality that makes us imagine that everywhere 'abroad' is Germany or USA. Meanwhile those are the exceptions in a world dominated by developing nations - the likes of Peru, Bangladesh, Sudan, India, Sri Lanka, Iran, Niger, Uganda, Chile, Turkey, Chad, Zambia, Albania, Jamaica, Mali, Afghanistan, Tajikistan, Nepal, Burma, and Ethiopia amongst others. These are places which, to the average Nigerian, might as well not exist. Their white conditioned mind has told then the only places worth visiting, or learning about are Western Europe or the US. And if Nigeria is not like those two, then we have ''failed''. Disgusting way to look at the world, and life itself.

How can you compare a country like ours blessed with a multitude of natural resources to Afghanistan, are you alright dude

Then you bring up India, like bro, we are not on India's level at all, they produce UPWARDS OF 300,000 MW of power while Nigeria produces a meager 4000-5000MW. If we can even reach India's level sef, I'll be happy, mtcheew

Rossikki:
Bullcrap. His WHOLE intent was to call for a return of the colonialists, using our nation's ills as his excuse. Maybe he's a foreign plant, who knows?

that was not an his intent, but was just an exaggeration born out of the desperate situation we find ourselves in.

it's not everything that is the whites fault bro

now is the time to prove that we blacks can get it right, or wouldn't you agree?

Rossikki:
GO TO HELL, YOU FOREIGNER PRETENDING TO BE A NIGERIAN.

When the British were here for nearly a century, what did they do?

Why was Nigeria an underdeveloped bush at independence without running water, electricity, basic healthcare services, or even a single university or power plant, after a whole century of British rule?

ALL THEY DID WAS LOOT OUR RESOURCES, and you have the AUDACITY to say they should come back and do what? JUST GET THE FUC.K OUT OF HERE.

You have come again with your false sense of patriotism.

bros, if you truly love your country as you seem to portray, then you'd support the OPs main point instead focusing on trivialities

I feel your pain, truly!

It's a sad situation bro.

I'm sure if Obama or even Abraham Lincoln was contesting in another party for Nigerian Presidency, Nigerians would still vote for APC or PDP, then later turn around to say the country is not working.

I wonder if Nigerians are allergic to living a good life. Maybe having 24/7 electricity, good health care, working police and army, good roads, high speed rail... scares them

Something tells me that the core "street" Nigerian, would rather live in the jungle with monkeys than work to build a working society.

Please watch this by Femi, the trump part may be a bit controversial, but we can all agree on the Nigeria part.

If you don't have data, you can dial the quality down to 144p, this should make it about 20-30mb to watch the clip.

It's a pity that either APC or PDP would win the 2019 election cos people would vote for the party when we have credible personnels like Durotoye, Duke, Atuejide on the list . Are we not tired of those old fools recycling themselves over us like seriously? Everyone screaming Atiku, Buhari...what good do the two old incompetent buffaloes got to offer? What kind of a country did I find myself nitori olorun?

As in my brother, really what type of country is this?

Funny thing is they have both ruled Nigeria before, one as a dictator and democratic president, the other as Vice President, yet people still want them back

Why are Nigerians like this?

It's just like if the slaves in Egypt were refusing freedom when God was offering it, like, "no God, we want pharaoh!", imagine that!!!

They all sound like the Pharisees screaming "we want barabbas!"

Who's next? Maybe babangida or bola tinubu for president, sigh!

It's one thing if they rig the elections, it's a whole other dark scenario we are witnessing were our people are actually praising these slave masters!

Have we been so defeated as a people that we have lost all belief Are we that depressed, that we no more care for ourselves, family and country

It's sad bro

lizzybet:
I would love you Sowore as our president but it's seems you're not popular enough. I prefer you 10000X to saraki the bastard son of ilorin

He is not as popular as the theives, which is sad.

I am hoping, praying and working so that Nigerians can be free from both APC and PDP in the upcoming presidential elections.

Both Buhari and Atiku have ruled many people while they were children and now that they are adults, Buhari and Atiku still want to rule them, haba!!

Lool...OMG!! what kinda party names are these

They are bereft of ideas on formulating simple party names, yet they are vying for the highest and office in the Land.

What about Sowore?

Check him out on YouTube, he is the most viable candidate so far, but why Nigerians prefer to suffer another 4 years is beyond me.

Vote Sowore 2019

Nigerians let's use our brains just this once, abeg, make una try!

Nigerians keep complaining about APC and PDP, yet there are so many other candidates to choose from.

Don't you know that both candidates from APC and PDP are being recycled?

Buhari was a dictator before and is president today, while Atiku was Vice President before and still wants to be president today!

Vote for Sowore 2019 and let's take our country back from these old men that ruined it in the first place!!

JudasNaCarrot:
More than half of the project money goes into bribing government official so what I'll be used for the project.

This country is really a shit hole.

I'm telling you bro!!

Worst thing is that we are going to have to pay China back, else, they may start seizing parts of Nigeria.

So why can't we build the infrastructure up to world standard, so we can easily recoup, reinvest and payback, sigh :-(

Next compare the aesthetics of the main terminal buildings in both Kenya and Nigeria

It's hard to believe that the one in Nigeria cost more


Fist pic - Nigeria

Second Pic - Kenya

Next lets look at the ticketing gate entrance

Notice from the Nigerian pic, how in Nigeria, they are still using Humans to check tickets, while Kenya has adopted the modern approach of using machines as is common in the west.




First Pic - Nigeria ticketing gate

Second&Third pic - Kenya ticketing gate

Was just watching the lovely Adeola on youtube recently and she brought up the comparison between the train stations within African countries, Nigeria inclusive, which were all executed WITH LOANS FROM CHINA.

So in simple terms, China gave a bunch of African countries loans to build train tracks and train stations, yet for some strange reason, the ones in Ethiopia and Kenya look very modern, while that in Nigeria just looks like "a building" and with almost no technology present.

YET, THE NIGERIAN GOVERNMENT CLAIMED TO HAVE SPENT MORE MONEY ON THE PROJECT THAN KENYA DID? IMAGINE!!!!!

Why does more buy you less in Nigeria

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


Lets start by looking at the differences between both ticketing counters

The first Pic is Nigeria's ticketing counter, while the second one is Kenya's ticketing counter.

deomelo:
This is what I love about Lagos, Lagosians and their leaders.

Lagos comes first, always.


All hands on deck


Eko oni baje is a way of life and culture.

lol, so you want one party to rule lagos for 24 years

Why not just cancel Elections and Democracy in Lagos and crown Tinubu King or Oba or something

Watch and see how a person that has genuine love for his people interacts and engages with them

I can't really blame some people that do not know what it means to live in a country that works.

Ignorance really is bliss sometimes, cause if you are cured of your ignorance by seeing how citizens of developed countries are living in 2018, then you may become enraged enough into blood seeking, which is several steps too far.

People are going to the Moon, countries are creating smaller and smaller Systems on Chips with billions of electrons powering your smartphones and computers, countries are "doing tinz" men and we are here lackin, holding big "Ls" like, wtf?

Am I the only one tired of us having a mediocre country

joker

A joker that is more qualified than all the rest put together, unless you're referring to a game of poker, either way, he does Trump the rest.

That anyone would still support either APC or PDP in the next presidential election is mind boggling.

What has Nigeria achieved from either of those two parties

Another 4 years would be a long time to waste on the wrong person, 4 years from now, Dollar to the Naira could be 500, petrol could be 300 naira, deisel could be 400... if the wrong person is again selected to stagnate and/or reverse Nigeria's growth.

whitebeard:
Sowore is a party person not a Nigerian person..!!

We need a patriot not some party ambassador

what does that mean? party person?

is there anyone better than sowore from either APC or PDP?

It's simple!!

The man has pedigree and is more qualified than all other potential candidates I have seen thus far, for the upcoming General Elections.

Obviously Buhari is a no go area, unless you truly hate your country and fellow countrymen.

PDP has zoned theirs to the North, taking away merit from their candidacy process, resulting in a reliance on quota system at a time when Nigeria desperately and I mean DESPERATELY needs THE BEST BRAINS POSSIBLE to rescue her.

I am a supporter of Biafra, but Sowore might just be what may be needed to keep Nigeria as ONE, if Nigeria starts to work. An educated Nigeria would be fierce to contend with and even if we do end up separating, it could be done more peacefully with a more educated population.

Sowore seems very serious about education, about power, security, labor and a host of other ailing sectors in Nigeria, or if we are being honest, ALL SECTORS IN NIGERIA




So I guess the question before Nigerians is if they are tired of their slave chains, or have adapted to seeing them as jewelry?

Are we ready to join other nations in the 21st century? They are all waiting for us!

RevenGeMission:
All i know is come fire, come brimstone , i will vote for Buhari 2019, God keep us alive

Buhari is doing what he can, however you can wash away the rot in the system for 16 years with 3 years , albeit 3 years of resistance from saboteurs and their sponsors


Is this not the same Nigeria where boko haram used to have field day with people's life ?

Where rustlers, herders and farmers used to clash almost everyday ?

where a politician and his son got 1 trillion subsidy payment whereas they had a non existent company ,home and office address ?

where somebody's wife has more than 1 trillion in fidelity bank, and the Piglet JoeSatan had the guts to take EFCC to court

Where Judges have millions of USD in their home vaults but can't account for the source when they got arrested

Where steel rolling was chopped to the ground and rail projects among other viable companies were at stand still ?


Nobody said fighting corruption would be easy , every attempt Buhari made, including special corruption court bills that'll ensure speedy trial was seized by NASS, instead they approved not too young to run, which translates to too broke to run

Many great philosophers around the world and even in Nigeria (Obafemi Awolowo) predicted Nigeria will be great when progressives take the helms of affairs , We are seeing the signs

We are not sentimental and we don't make decisions with emotions , therefore, Buhari has my vote one more time


FlatPod Jewus , the bastards of Israel can vote massively against Buhari if they want, their vote never counted before , it won't count now

See dem!! Already calling ipobs, lol

See him saying PDP 16 years rule, but tell him that APC Lagos will be ruling for 24 years should they win and they will tell you to go back to your village.

Compare 16 years with 24 years

Zombie

I created a topic like this and it was deleted by the mods just hours ago, yet other tribal threads against igbos remain, smh

Some Yorubas are really dull, you guys are laughing at Igbos that Ambrose lost, but igbos never even voted for Ambode in the first place, it was you guys that were struggling to install this guy

So what changed?

Why are you now angry at igbos? Lol, how daft!!

You guys have been shouting that Ambode is the best governor in naija and now just cause Tinibu says otherwise you all change your minds Unbelievable!!

Please leave igbos out of your mental instability, zombies

APC zombies at it again, with no sense of self, no independent reasoning, just shutting down all mental faculties and letting ONE MAN, yes, ONE MAN, tell them all what to do and how to feel.

I wonder how if must feel to not have a mind of your own


https://i.pinimg.com/originals/dc/00/89/dc0089b5ac6c096fd3cd1fb82dccd004.gif

ladyF:
I'm still shocked how Ambode turned from best Governor in Nigeria to villain in a space of a few weeks.

That's cause most of them are zombies

Or doesn't the evidence that you provided lean towards that conclusion?

"Tell am to go straight
A joro, jara, joro
No break, no job, no sense
A joro, jara, joro
Tell am to go kill
A joro, jara, joro
No break, no job, no sense
A joro, jara, joro
Tell am to go quench
A joro, jara, joro
No break, no job, no sense
A joro, jara, joro
"

So they simply tell them how to feel at any given point in their zombiefied existence, so don't be too shocked how such a switch in demeanor could occur so swiftly, these aren't independent minds we are talking about.

Exponental:
@Op, Apc is not up to 20 yrs. What you meant is : Same set of people have been governing US since inception of democracy in 1999.

yeah,pretty much!

Tinubu's former party "Alliance For Democracy" and the current "All Progressives Congress" are one and the same.
