PoliticsRe: Obi Says National Unity Will Be Top Priority If Elected President by laurel03(m): 12:39pm On May 20
WizardOfNG:
Lol. Obi should give one single example in his leadership career he has attempted to be a unifying force. Even in Agulu, I am sure he is segregating Catholics and Anglicans etal.

happney65:
The last time I replied you with facts and figures here,you basically ran away. grin. So you better pray Seyi doesnt contest because Tinubu wont win Oyo again and he will lose Osun

Seyi isnt contesting to win the Presidency. He is contesting to

1. Help his candidates win the down ballots in the Presidential. Senate and House of Rep

2. Reduce tinubu's vote in the Presidential election in the SW.

If Seyi wont win elsewhere. He will win Oyo and Osun States. Just know this and know peace. So now tell me where Tinubu will now win in the SW when Obi/kwanwanso will win Lagos again and there will be voter aparthy in the other States in the SW

So where will your useless Tinubu win? Heeen. grin

Out to split Tinubu’s South-West votes. Talking about good governance Seyi Makinde is hundreds of kilometers ahead of Tinubu and he is good to receive the votes of Nigerians. However, when it come to political strategy Seyi is a polibabe!
No be Seyi that can't even finished Agbowo Complex?? How many Ajumose bus U see working again?? Go to public schools and see situation of things, Oyo State water corporation was still functioning before his era now dead finally, Adamasingba Stadium projects not completed, Go to the new terminal buses in Iwo road and see the useless project.. less than a year they commissioned it, LGA money embezzled and the inner roads in Oyo State worst under him... Lands he is selling across the city what are they really doing with the huge Billions let alone the fat Fg allocation nowhuh

Can my governor or LGA chairman reduce the price of dollar?, can my governor or LGA chairman reduce inflation?

Does my governor alone receive more more money than the federal government that is headed by Tinubu?

You people always trying to flip logic over its head... They were talking about how wickedness at Embassy and related to society greediness and you said its TInubu fault...
So why did price of dollar rised?? Floated and your agulu Obi also promised to float the foreign exchange and remove subsidy on fuel...
Anyway nothing will make you people see better side of the present day govt and continue wailing till 2031...
Every region have Aviation schools now which will only have 1 in Zaria for decades.. Lg autonomy working in some States now, Poor Students getting loan presently in Nigeria, Uncountable infrastructure going on across every zone, Stock market is back to track... Even Paypal back in Naija, All State and LGA are financially bouyants now... Etc
So you can take your phone and search for BAT achievements

Who is more important in a governor and president?

So i should leave the more important one and focus on the less important?

Why didn't you people focus on governors during GEJ's time?

Every blame was heaped on him, now Tinubu is president, it is now very convenient to divert blames to governors and leave the president because he is your tribesman...

You guys are the major reason I gave up on the unity of Nigeria, I never thought in my life I will see you people from this perspective...

I always though you people wanted the good of the country but it was all about tribal dominance, the more you are doing this, the more you are justifying my perspective...

i keep asking, what exactly did Tinubu become president for? And what exactly did you people support Tinubu to become president for and what are you people still supporting him for?

After i check everything, the only answer that pops up strong is tribal, religious and/or political dominance...

The question is: what is your current president teaching Nigerians as their leader?

I'm not here to justify anybody's greed, but what is Tinubu showing as good example to Nigerians as their leader?

Do you and Tinubu think leadership is all about holding a title and gallivanting up and down?

What good example is he showing the governors, the institutions, the children going to school and Nigerians in general?
So the greediness just Started in Tinubu erahuh The way you guys think.. Every problem since amalgamation is by Tinubu

PoliticsRe: You must produce not tax Your Way Out Of Poverty - Peter Obi by laurel03(m): 5:56pm On Jan 10
njokuuche77:
There’s an important difference between structured taxation within a functioning local economy and blanket taxation in a depressed national economy. What happened in Anambra was a market levy tax within an active commercial system, where traders had access to customers, infrastructure, and relative stability.

The argument here is not “no tax at all,” but you cannot rely on taxation as a primary tool when production is weak, unemployment is high, and citizens are poorer. Context matters.

Also, protesting a tax does not automatically make it unjust, citizens protest taxes everywhere. The real issue is whether taxes are lawful, proportionate, transparent, and tied to visible public value. That standard should apply to every government, past or present.
PAYE is not for the poor.. even the tax Fg reformed relieved the poor earner... PAYE is not recent things in Nigeria they are just giving more awareness and want to have more people to be paying...
PoliticsRe: You must produce not tax Your Way Out Of Poverty - Peter Obi by laurel03(m): 7:16pm On Jan 02
njokuuche77:
Okwute Himself.

This is a crucial point. Taxation should be the outcome of prosperity, not a substitute for it. When production is weak, jobs are scarce, and SMEs are struggling, increasing taxes only widens inequality and deepens hardship. Without transparency, legality, and visible public value, taxation loses its moral and economic legitimacy. No nation has taxed its way out of poverty, growth comes from production, trust, and honest leadership.
Okwute even introduced mad Tax in Anambra during is regime... I just dislike this Obi because he did lot of what he now criticise like his saint... https://www.facebook.com/share/v/16mHPeXgnz/

PoliticsRe: Why Governor Makinde Stopped Supporting Tinubu – Wike’s Aide, Lere Olayinka by laurel03(m): 5:00am On Dec 25, 2025
DeLaRue:
The Governor should reconsider his contesting for presidency.

South West people are not clamouring for a 2nd SW presidential candidate that will open the door for another Northern president so soon after Mr Buhari, especially by someone who is young enough to wait.

You have a Governor in the same party as you in neighbouring Osun, yet you did not support his re-election huh

This Governor doesn't command any support outside Oyo State.

Most people don't know you in Lagos, Ondo, Ekiti, and Ogun. If you stop people on the streets of Lagos, or Akure, most of them won't be able to tell you who the Governor of Oyo State is. Even I don't always remember his name.

Yet he thinks it's his turn to contest, even if that means splitting the SW votes huh

Mr Tinubu was a factor in all 6 Southwestern states toiling and battling for nearly 2 decades before contesting for President.

Do you live in oyo state or you just followed the paid media hype that toh read on social media?

Come to Oyo state and spend just 2 months moving around Ibadan alone and you will change your tune

Do you want us to talk about non functional sterling that gulped billions of naira or 45km single lane road that's been under construction since 2020 or mom performing local government chairmen across the 33 local government in oyo state and the list goes on and on

When we talk about Lagos state, there are huge constructions going on but the work is very below the IGR of Lagos state. The amount of money that motorist pay to agberos is enough to construct good roads across every nooks and crannies of Lagos but funny enough, the state is filled with lots of bad inner roads

Don't even talk about Ogun state, infrastructural development is on standstill and the state looks like it's ok autopilot for the past 6yrs

Osun state, I am yet to see any capital project commissioned by adeleke so I am not moved by his administration

Same thing with Ondo state and Ekiti state infact all South Western States Governments are performing below expectation which is very sad. These guys mo longer value education due to their lackadaisical attitude toward education on their respective states
Makinde that can't fix just agbowo complex ... Iwo road bus terminal never get meaningful shape... GSM that is electrician and wasted 24b on street light yet they hardly on the street light... the only achievement of Makinde is paying Salary and acquiring land for Estates..

Imagine a Rep that is silly enough not to know the size of where he is representing.

A big shame that this is what a whole Ibadan could send to the centre..... 25k sqkm indeed.
I never even watched the video before and i know is Agboworin that will say that rubbish.. I am Ib based.... Majority of people in Ibadan always think Ibadan is big than many States in Nigeria.. Oyo state is the 15th largest State in Nigeria and ibadan as a town is largest city... Some states in Nigeria that big than the entire SE are Niger, Borno and Taraba.. Ibadan is big as a town but not up to any state in the SE.

In all honesty this boils down to poor maintenance and infrastructural supervision/Integrity checks of the train and tracks.
