They just gave tinubu a job noone wants ,a job every dick and Harry knows is senseless and useless ,it seems he too has finally come to see that buhari himself wants some ppl out of APC and he wants to use some ppl to win ,
Buhari foot soldiers are all over the west and they will most likely give tinubu a strong fight for the control of APC south west.
Secondly most 3 out of south west APC governors are in their second term which means they need protection after their tenure ,the nomination of their successor is where they will all clash with tinubu, already the game is taking a big twist in ogun state

Yea I totally agree with you, that's why in said before that people like Amosun and Akeredolu won't listen to anything Tinubu has to say,he should focus on Lagos or else ,its just an impossible task,am still waiting for the magic he's going to work in reconciling an egotistic Kwankwanso and Ganduje in Kano,and the issues in Kaduna where El-rufai will be the major stumbling block,already there will be a battle for Osun state.Tinubu has used tax to finish Lagos citizens,he's time is running out.

DIKEnaWAR:
Why does Tinubu love power so much that it has blinded him to reason? The man is mad and can't think again.

They would only ratify the extension at the NEC, further humiliating Tinubu and his cronies.

To remove Oyegun will open a new chapter in the fight for the soul of APC. It would finally bring Tinubu I n collision with Buhari. Buhari doesn't want to fight Tinubu yet till when he gets a 2nd term. That's why he made sure Oyegun would be there till after elections before he would chase him and Tinubu away from the party. They gave Tinubu the role of reconciliation to keep him busy and make him feel important because it has been seen that the man has a large ego and wants everyone to kow tow to him. APC is not the defunct ACN.


This is the end for the Jagaban. Any party he moves to today will not be comfortable. The Osun and Lagos governors are following him grudgingly. Oyo is only following him because Buhari has refused to let him in because of Adebayo Shit(tu).

Bye to Jagajaga. .. bye bye to Jagaban...

Buhari is playing Tinubu,its just simple,keep your friends close and your enemies closer, by making him the HNIC of the reconciliation,they've made him busy and also they would keep an eye on him and also checkmate his moves,I think Tinubu should focus more on Lagos else......

Wow! This is really sad! Have you thought of trying other states?

I have but the issue with this country is the kind of people we have here,too many greedy people and this thing is capital intensive,but its worth every stress if one is successful.

LaudableXX:
$300m-$$900m... wetin?? $600m-$700m?? No kidding! I feel like swearing for these useless public officials that have been put into positions of authority! Meanwhile, many states keep complaining that they lack funds to carry out major projects! A neighbour of mine who works with LAMATA the state agency trying to establish the Lagos rail project, has complained about the huge lack of funds that is stalling the completion of that project! Do you know the huge potentials that would be unlocked in the state, once that rail project is finished? Or the massive reduction in travel time across the city, once the train services kick off?

There are public hospitals in Lagos and other states that lack equipment, modern diagnostic devices etc, and cannot run run public health intervention programmes due to lack of funds.... and some jerks are messing up chances to utilise such foreign funds for the overall benefit of the citizens, and even improve public infrastructure to reduce travel time, across board? May God punish them big time! Chai!

Na dis kind thing dey make me vex!

if I start to talk or swear for people I won't stop till next year,I focused on Lagos cos I felt for any investment opportunity Lagos is always the first call for any investor, the first meeting we had was on the 30th is September 2015 with the then Perm sec of the ministry of oversees investment And foreign affairs, the building just directly opposite the Lagos House within the same premises,Mrs Arinola the perm sec wasted our time for more than 5 months before she was forcefully resigned by Gov Ambode in Feb 2016,even without signing a non disclosure agreement with us and our partners a lot of documents were made available even when it wasn't suppose to be so,its a long story.

This country is a mess I tell you.

LaudableXX:
In fact, I just weak ......what kind of backward mentality do some people have in this country? If your grant had been accepted and utilised for your planned project, do you know how many people would have benefited from it? How many citizens would have been employed and how much taxes would have accrued to govt, to boost their internal revenue, from the work done on that project?

The funders had a range from a minimum of $300m-$$900m depending on the. State meeting all necessary requirements, Lagos for instance could access close to $600m-$700m cos of the viability of the State,our partners told us how South Africa and some other African and Asia Countries like Indian had benefited from the Grant,aside that most people in Govt don't know the world is observing everything we do,mostly our religious over zealousness.

Wha-aa-at?? So you mean corrupt people messed up such a good opportunity for investment? Chai!! Why are people like this? I thought they said this govt was fighting corruption? Can you see how our public and elected officials mess things up in this country?

Na so we see am oh till one of the Investors pulled out,after we've invested a lot of money, time and effort,I even left my job in abj cos I felt it was a better opportunity for me,The level of corrupt in this country is mind bugling,The country is run by a cartel.

A law that was first passed into Law from a "progressive" State,then we had a photo coping effect across the country, with all the money these ex Governors have embezzled,its just the height of cruelty that they still collect pensions and houses in choice areas in Lagos and abuja coupled with change of cars in their convoy,we need to save this country.

LaudableXX:
In fact, when you mentioned vegetables, my mouth just started to water. Add fresh fish and pepper soup to the mix, and you have just made my day! Can you imagine that Ondo, Ogun and Lagos have extensive shorelines with access to the sea and different rivers, yet they have failed to develop an efficient water transportation system with a fleet of boats, ferries and hovercrafts? I hear that from Ogun waterside to Lekki area in Lagos, is just about 2 hours, by boat. Can you imagine if there was a good ferry service on this route?

My brother this country is a big surprise, it won't cost the govt a dime to execute these projects under a PPP or Concessionary arrangement, but greed won't let us,I and an elder Bros brought in some investors into the country since 2015,one was Humanitarian Grant and the other was from a Financial Institution affiliated to the World bank,I tell you Nigerians messed the opportunity up,from greedy civil servants to selfish individuals that wanted to circumvent us,to house of rep members asking us to pay 10m naira before they even consider moving,my brother a grant that the state won't pay back oh,our partners were like 'What kind of people are these" a program that's suppose to help develop the state,Nigeria's problem is broad and we need an holistic approach to solve it,so many investors want to come but there are too many bottlenecks in our system,we all really need to rise above tribal and ethnic sentiments so we can salvage the future for our unborn generations.

LaudableXX:
In fact, if we had an efficient water transport system, or an effective rapid mass transit rail system connecting all the Southwestern states and Middle Belt, I would probably have relocated to Mowe in Ogun State or Lokoja. This arbitrary increase of charges and other nansense fees in Lagos, is getting out of hand....

My brother I feel the same way too,if I stay in Akure and work in Lagos,I will live fine,enjoy fresh vegetables and fruits and I don't have to spend so much on house rent and I will always visit my Grandma every other weekend in Ogori.

The babe is mad. Twitter liars on point.

abi its a lie!

This op got it all wrong I watched the interview on TVC,and I remember her report,what she was referring to was about students doing drugs at Redeemers University,hence RCCG had to come up with a rehab center,please stop feeding people with false information.

LaudableXX:
Don't be funny! The poor will definitely feel the backlash, more. When Land Use Charge increases, do you think the landlord will not pass the cost to the poor, by increasing his house rent? Think man, think! I know someone whose former Land Use Charge was just 78,000 naira per annum. Under the new rates, he is being asked to pay 361,000 naira per year. And you think he will not increase the rent, on that property to make up the difference??

people don't understand that there will be a ripple effect,well I think it will only help Ogun and Oyo state if they are wise enough to see the potentials,by making land available for real estate developers to accommodate the people that will begin to relocate from Lagos.

Ambode is moving to fast with his revenue generation and he's really not factoring other aspect of the economy into his policies,people's earnings haven't increased in any way,what about access to portable water and good roads? The drive for revenue generation is not a fire brigade approach.

It takes time and effort on the part of the Government to justify any form of extortion in the name of generating extra revenue.

Looking at the issue of waste management in Lagos State,deciding to change from the PSPs to VisionScape without making any arrangement to fill the vacuum has made Lagos a mess,now visionscape is learning on the job.

I think he really needs to be more accountable with the revenue he's been generating before asking people to pay more.

Nigeria as a country lost it a long time ago,these so called 'leaders' of old the likes of Obj,Buhari,Babangida etc have all failed this country with their self interest, Nigeria use to be the leading nation in Africa,a reference point for what Africa would have being,now we've lost it all,generations wasting away all over the country, product minds turned into a cess pit of hideous craftiness, nature abhors vacuum,since these ypung men recruited by BH weren't given the opportunities for positive growth,they will find a craft for themselves,I look everywhere and I lost all hope in this country, look at where we are today,the rest of the world has moved on.

There's so much prayer can do without the right will to achieve greatness,what happened to the Save a School initiative launched a couples of years ago,the funds raised from the PINE.

Our so called leaders have been a sham a total disgrace to Africa and mankind.

Its funny how people think they can fight God's battle,whether Freeze,Bishop Oyedepo,Pastor Adeboye,at the end of the day God knows who truly serves him,we will all give account.

The organisers got what they wanted it was their plan right from the outset,the ultimate plan was to get them to be emotionally involved with one another hence the systematic pairing.

I think she skipped these scriptures.

It is obvious tinubu will face a serious challenge to his authority in the south west, we said it years ago when the saraki issue started that eventually tinubu will be relegated to the background,the president already has ppl on ground ready to snatch the south west apc from tinubu,they did it in ondo,kogi and even osun state successfully. Fayemi ,fashola and co are on the mission of taking over. I am sure some south west governors will rather follow the presidents men than tinubu who now has less to offer.
At the end of the day ,only Lagos State may be left in tinubu hands and even in the same Lagos he will likely be facing serious opposition

Their last APC election within Lagos state ended up in chaos with members mostly youths saying they were tired of imposition,I said it if Tinubu is not careful he will lose Lagos state,they are seriously after him.

This same man that use to hail Buhari.

debolayinka:
I smell someone's relevance diminishing already.

I said it some few days ago that this a trap and Tinubu fell for it,one guy quoted me forming political analysis, I just ignored him,Akeredolu will not sir down and watch Tinubu take over the structure of the party in Ondo,same as Amosun,Ajumobi,These guys will mess Tinubu up cos they know what he's after and they will fall his hand big time,even Yahaya Bello has grown wings am still saying it if Tinubu is not careful by the time he's done gallivanting around Nigeria forming "peace-maker" these guys might scheme Lagos away from him using PDP, now how does he resolve the issues in Kano,Kaduna,Kogi,Adamawa,Niger,Zamfara,Sokoto, and even the Senate,I think Tinubu is over rated he can't do much,let me add Rivers as well.

minasota:
which way Nigeria ........

aptly summarized.

PrecisionFx:
Bros for inside Abuja proper, 100×100 plot na billion sef

I hustle try sell Karasana land tire make I even get better bar,I search for that thing tire.

She's not the only one that has benefit from the system,Adenuga owner of Global,the Indimis just to mention a few,Tinubu and even Fashola allocated land to their croonies,in Abj Hectares of land is allocated to Senators,Ministers and business men close to which ever administration is in power, land in Abj is the oil over there,imagine being allocated 100hectares that's worth over 5bn naira,my people that's why most folks will do anything to get close to power,Alakija in her case was just fortunate, I don't hate her but she should just keep quiet and save face.

Pure Alchemy.

Some people are making serious money from this war,that's why it will take a very long time for it to end,the govt isn't sincere in fighting the war holistically, get the sponsors of BH that's what they are suppose to be doing else we will continue fighting this way for some years to come,I feel for those kids and their parents.

benuejosh:
i am just thinking. Does Oyegun carry much weight in the south south? There are bigger players in the South as Compared to Oyegun. Tinubu is a green snake on green grass, very smart in politics. By the time he does finishes the reconciliation, i believe he must have gotten much more followers/supporter even from the south south and then the next will be to oust Oyegun. So Tinubu may actually not go down here but Oyegun.. Remember, Tinubu was instrumental to making Oyegun who he is.

They know that's why Oyegun is acting the way he is and most of the Govs are supporting him,the likes of Bello,Akeredolu,Amosun won't just sit and watch Tinubu take a hold of the micro structure within their states,that's why Bello came out with that statement,the people that put them in power have seen this way ahead of Tinubu. remember how Segun Abraham and the other guy from Kogi lost,they know Tinubu is coming for them,just look at the content of this letter,imagine after Oyegun met Buhari,if I was Tinubu I would concentrate on getting Osun and retaining Lagos else......stories that touch oh.

They will use Oyegun to counter Tinubu so he doesn't get a hold on the party at all,Tinubu just walked into a well calculated trap,they will embarrass him and bring an end to his political career, this is an insult am wondering why he's not seeing it,allowing greed to blind him,he has total forgotten he only has Lagos, and Osun is about to slip in his hands,what's he thinking,that the likes of Amosun,Akeredolu will watch him get a hold of the party structure in their states? he's seriously dreaming,he believes too much in himself and that will be his downfall, if he's not careful they will take Lagos from him.

Mynd44:
Nigeria and Nigerians cant change

its so unfortunate we have been brought to this level.

candy:
A failed attempt at humour

its also condescending and an insult to the collective intelligence of the entire people of Benue,people have died many are IDPs as we speak,we have totally forgotten about the fact that over 3000 people were murdered in Agatu and hundreds have been displaced for the President to make a joke out of that is the height of insensitivity..... probably when he meets Gaidam he would ask him how his "girls" are.?
