PoliticsNigerian Governors And Their Nicknames. by mannobi(op): 8:06pm On Jun 28, 2016
Nicknames Nigerians call 13 state governors
Nigerians are a great people and they have a funny
way of naming things and people. They have a name for
everything under the sun. For example, they call
motorcycles, Okada.
They are very good at giving nicknames to things and even humans. The nicknames they give to people are usually as a result of something, maybe an event.
Most of the time, these nicknames eventually replace the real names.
Most Nigerian governors have already been given
nicknames and below are some of the funny names they are being addressed::
Nicknames of Nigerian governors
1. Akinwumi Ambode: He is the governor of Lagos state
and has been nicknamed ‘Quilox’, which is one of Nigeria’s
most celebrated nightclubs. He was given this name
because he’s said to frequently patronize the expensive
nightclub. This came to the limelight after someone spotted
him at the popular nightclub sometime in 2015 after he was
sworn in as governor. Others refer to him as A+
2. Rauf Aregbesola: He is the governor of Osun state and is mostly referred to as ‘Ogbeni’. He took up the title of Ogbeni, the Yoruba word for mister in 2010. He is also
fondly called ‘Baba Kabiru’ owing to the fact that his first child is named Kabiru.
3. Ayodele Fayose: The governor of Ekiti state is mostly
referred to as the ‘Stomach Infrastructure’ governor
because he believes in feeding his people and is always
sharing food items. He is the most controversial governor.
Fayose made the term, stomach infrastructure popular in
Nigeria’s political dictionary.
4. Abiola Ajimobi: The governor of Oyo state is called ‘Eji’
because of his gap-tooth. The word ‘EJi’ is the Yoruba
translation of gap-tooth.
5. Rochas Okorocha: Some Igbos call the Imo state
governo ‘Okoro Hausa’ because they are of the opinion
that he has given himself to Hausa Fulani as an instrument
of destruction against the restoration of Biafra and for the
total islamization of Biafra land.
6. Ifeanyi Okowa: The Delta state governor is referred to
as ‘Opolo Eye’ by some people. This is because he has big
eye balls. “Opolo” is the Yoruba translation for toad.
7. Mallam Nasir El Rufai: The Kaduna state governor is
referred to as ‘Mai Rusau’ and ‘Hell-Rufai’ which means
The Demolisher. This is because of his actions when he was
Nigeria’s FCT Minister and there were so many demolitions
in Abuja and likewise in Kaduna where he is the current
state governor.
8. Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi: The governor of Enugu state got the
name ‘Cry Cry Baby’, following his shedding of tears when
he visited Ukpabi, Nimbo, in Uzo-Uwani local government
area of the state after they were attacked by Fulani
herdsmen.
9. Abdulfatah Ahmed: the Kwara state governor is called
‘Omoodo Saraki’ (Saraki’s House Boy).
10. Abdullahi Ganduje: The governor of Kano state is
referred to by residents of the state as ‘Mijin Hajiya’ and
‘Me Barci’. Mijin Hajiya because of his wife’s influence on
him or Me barci because he frequently sleeps in public
functions.
Some past governors also have nicknames that have stuck.
11. Rotimi Amaechi: The former Rivers state governor was
given the name ‘Lion of Ubima’ following his fallout with
ex-president Goodluck Jonathan and the Peoples
Democratic Party. Some also referred to him as the ‘Judas
of Ubima’ for betraying Jonathan and teaming up with the
ruling All Progressives Congress.
12. Adebayo Alao-Akala: The former governor of Oyo state
was called the ‘Bleaching governor’ during his tenure
because of his obvious light skinned complexion.
13. Asiwaju Bola Tinubu: The former governor of Lagos
state is better known as ‘Jagaban’, a title which has gained
prominence, especially among his numerous followers and
political allies.
Do you know other governors with nicknames?

PoliticsRe: The Six Geographical Regions Of Nigeria In Order Of Development. by mannobi(m): 8:43pm On Jan 02, 2016
South West obviously started developing before others that is why they set the pace however some other regions will catch up in some years time if properly planned. American states are not developed equally either.
Note: Lagos shouldn't be separated from the south Western states because if the aborigines didn't set the platform, the development wouldn't have been concentrated there

SportsJose Mourinho: From A Hero To Zero by mannobi(op): 9:28am On Dec 18, 2015
Jose Mourinho :FROM HERO TO ZERO
If there is any coach in the premier League or the world that has been famous with the media, obviously MOU is number one either on the good note or otherwise. The downfall of the self acclaimed 'special one' calls for a thorough examination.
First, THE CHRISTIANING OF THE SPECIAL ONE. Jose came to the premier league on a proud horse for his success at FC Porto hence, branded himself the bogus title like coaches before him were not specially better than him. A famous Alex Ferguson didn't do such to avoid the media problem. Jose ran to the media, they made him and destroyed him.

His ARROGANCE is another factor. MOU is known to be arrogantly proud except for his mind games when playing a formidable team capable of defeating him. He has always underrated the minor teams which eventually sent him parking the second time.

The BLAME OTHERS SYNDROME. José is known for not accepting responsibility when his team under performs. He will rather single out a particular player, a section of the team, the referee or the other team. Whereas an Arsene Wenger will accept the blame even after a 5:0 demolition than blame the players publicly.

The WENGER ATTACK. Coach mourinho has been the trouble maker of most of the leagues he coached. At Madrid, he caused many unnecessary rift between Madrid and Barcelona. In the premier League, Arsene Wenger was branded the special one in failure. Well, Jose himself after being sacked twice by the same team for poor performance could also be branded a special failure.
The PLAYERS RIFTS. Jose fought Eto, Terry, Ramous, Casillas, Fabrigas, Ronaldo, Costa to name a few. Picking up fight with your player doesn't portray you as a good coach. The other players will rather side with their colleagues as solidarity will be needed when their own time comes. Which is why he always claims to be betrayed by the same players he publicly criticised.
The FA CONSPIRACY. José blamed the FA for most of his misfortunes but forgot that the FA can't be bullied by a coach. He who plays the piper dictates the tune. He fought the FA in a battle he cannot win and was taught the better lesson.
Finally, THE EVA CANEIRO SAGA. José mourinho singlehandedly recommended the brilliant doctor's sack. He could be liken to some of Naija terrible bosses who treat their subordinates like nonentity. By now he would have learnt that what ever goes around, comes around. Truly women are very powerful. While the Doc enjoys her marriage, José still has the litigation to battle even after being issued the red card. MORAL LESSONS: DO UNTO OTHERS WHAT YOU CAN ACCEPT.

Good bye the specially humbled one
