I quite agree with you that Keyamo is a nonproductive minister. But tell me what exactly what your commissioner of labour and productivity in Anambra state has been able to achieve in 8 years. In fact, point out any from the South East that has been able to do things differently.
My point is that you people don't really have anything to offer. You just want power handed over to you for emotional reasons.
It's good to rise above hatred.

DatNiggaDaz:
After been non productive in his Ministry which is suppossed to provide employnnent for Nigerians, he has looted the funds under his Ministry, and here he is providibg Information to his gazelle garangaja supporters on how to live life by going fishing in the USA. Ok

His fans like those Tinubu and Apc supporters are here in hell fishing insecurity, Inflation and joblessness. I hope Tinubu supporters will also go on vacation in the US or anyother place in the world.

You are a very wicked man festus abandoning the diehard supporters of Apc and Tinubu without been nice taking at least one.

This is what keyamo rode on the great legacies of Gani Fawehinmi to become, acquiring over 300,000 Dollars worth of home in the US and going fishing abandoning the garangajas of this world in hell


This life no Balance at all

Igbo people will suffer greatly when they realise the level of damage they have done to relationship. See what one of them is suggesting, because one refused to vote for obi. This is a form of online terrorism on the basis of political choice.

KingKO22:
Tell your people to stop politics of bitterness and Nzogbu Nzogbu politics

Your people have broken quite lots of bridges against other Nigerians with insult and attack physically as well as on cyberspace thinking only SS is their only ally that can guarantee election victory for them

In all honesty, Igbo people need to do their own version of "Yoruba ronu". Umahi is one of the few voices of reason left among his tribesmen. How can a whole group of people sleep and face one direction? In all honesty, Peter Obi won this election, but the powers that be would never allow him there. This is not about court or US or anything, but he has not washed his hands with elders enough to be president.
I remember vividly how Buhari dealt with Igbo people so much that he called them a dot in a circle. He brought Nnamdi Kalu from exile to Kuje prison all under US watch and up till now, nothing has happened. Their best response was sit-at-home Mondays.
Umahi has always advised Igbo people not to put their eggs in one basket with Peter Obi but they refused. Now a new government is coming up, they are still being abusive and in denial. Assuming nothing stops Tinubu's inauguration and he decides to follow Buhari's vengeful pathway, Igbo people will probably get scraps from Tinubu's government. I pray Tinubu be a better man than Buhari is and acts on his promise of a more inclusive government.

The more this man publicize his legacy projects, the more he attacks Peter Obi's PR. It would seem that Obi has turned Anambra into a mini-dubai with his midas touch with the way he was been hyped on social media few months ago. Soludo's Twitter page is filled with people castigating him for doing projects Obi claimed to have done and have asked people to "go and verify".
Tinubu may not be a saint, but he was right the other day when he referred to Peter Obi as the false messiah. The more we look, the less we see indeed!

Why will thugs in Lagos attack someone that produced just 7 votes I'm an obscure polling unit, inconsequential to the ultimate election victory? One thing I know about Lagos thugs is that they are smart and strategic. They don't waste their time doing irrelevant stuffs as chasing people crossing the road like Anambra thugs. There is a proverb that if you must eat frogs, better let it be pregnant. Chinedu should try more, cos this is not it at all!

Eehyah, sad. Chinedu wants to waste his money in court. All these obidients think say they can use court to intimidate someone. I used to be in that ignominious bubble before my eyes got opened.
The elections is long gone. The losers should move on and not keep dragging shadows. Buhari that just spent 8 years today lost severally at the polls. Persistence and perseverance are great virtues, if you wish to be a politician. Tomorrow is another day to try again shaa, the quote is not for Chinedu shaa, he can never rule Lagos.

However cosmopolitant you think Lagos maybe in the nearest future, some things just won't change. You cannot wipe out the identity of indigenes in any part of the world, however hospitable they may be. Even in "saner climes" you can see that there are certain push back measures being implemented against migrants. I doubt if this will change for the better soon.

Reference:
Like the Mayor of Newyork, and the government of the State baying against the 2002 Martin Scorsese Film, 'Gangs of Newyork'.... on account of its 'uncultured' portrayal of the Irish and the denigration of their proud heritage.

Anytime I watched the film all those years ago, long before all these events we see today I imagined Nigeria in 200 years time.
So apt today because a time will come when Lagos will become like Newyork, a truly cosmopolitan city, a real crucible of nationals of all kinds from all parts and places of differing backgrounds.

It will. It will have to. It has no alternative. Lagos will eventually leave its ethnic toga behind and become a city state indeed.

To be honest, the same Tinubu that you all are villifying today was the one who turned Lagos to the enviable destination of igbo people in their millions. Afterall, both Tinubu and Peter Obi had fairly the same resources to turn their states around when they were both governors, but what did Peter Obi do? saving money that was meant to develop infrastructure, while Tinubu reasoned like the actual enterpreneurial igbo man and deployed resources to work that made Chinedu thinks that he can become governor of the same state today. Perhaps if Peter Obi today had the balls to do what Tinubu did, maybe yoruba people might have had a mass exodus to Anambra. I guess the only yoruba people that naturally gravitates to relocating down south are agbo sellers and tailors, skills that are in short supply of. Need I say more?

SUFFERInSMILIIN:
I have been supporting tinubu and Buhari from beginning because what Nigeria needs is somebody which can destroy the stupid illiterate people and their coconut head. When buhari came into power Nigeria what rank 6 country in Africa to invest in today in Nigeria is rank 18 country in Africa to invest by Time bola tinubu leave office Nigerian will be around 45 in Africa to invest in.

This is why I support them very much the destruction of Nigeria will be our progress and development

So what exactly is Igbo bringing to the table that they feel we should hand over power to them? Yoruba people have been stooping low to conquer by playing second class citizens to the Hausa Fulani powers that be for like ages. Compromising and negotiating at every point in time, but Igbo people feel that after many years of struggling for democracy through diplomacy they should get the baton by abuse and terrorism.
Many of us that voted Peter Obi during the past elections are deeply regretting it now and I'm sure many other "woke" Yoruba people still championing the Igbo cause will come to their senses later.
There is no alliance with an Igbo man that succeeds for a long time. The igbo man will always find a way to cheat you at the end and make you regret. Take this word to the bank. That's why other tribes are finding it hard to hand over power to them. Leave us with our tribalism, cos its better safe than sorry.

Chimok:
These people have excelled in their various careers at the world stages ÷
Wole Soyinka
Anthony Joshua
Sade
Davido
Fela
Omos
Ayra Star and a host of others
Yorubas have also excelled in leadership and social activism -
Gani Fawehnmi, Fela, Fals, Pa Adebanjo, Osinbajo etc. We all witnessed the short period Osinbajo took over as acting president and within just three months Nigeria was on a real positive change but the forces truncating everything positive in Nigeria would never allow that and they are the same forces that made sure Tinubu with all his baggages emerged instead of an Osinbajo.
However, Yorubas even with all these excellence are still leaning more on tribalism which their politicians are influencing to continue their rape of the nation. Yoruba youths are atill back and forth on the need for national rebirth and sustaining the politicians will for Nigeria
Yoruba youths to me are the hope of this national rebirth which i believe Igbo youths have already queued into.

Obidients should calm down. May 29 is almost here. All these online propaganda changes absolutely nothing. Peter Obi may have won the elections but the powers that be have not allowed him to rule. Except the status quo changes through court judgment, all these shenanigans are mere child's play.
Meanwhile, what's the update about Chimamanda's letter? I thought USA would have sent marine snipers to Abuja now. Its like a week or more

Hello Oga, even though I was supporting Obi before and even voted for him in this election, we need to tell ourselves the truth. Can you mention any Southeast politician that has been able to judiciously maximize opportunities and resources well? (Say apart from Obi that made some savings and Umahi that faired better)
Inasmuch as you have no credible politicians in your zone, you have no right to tell people in any other zone that they are hurting themselves and will suffer from poverty. Don't even mention that security part, cos we all know how it is in the south east. One of your politicians looted your region so dry that he had to come back and smuggle kidney, or na liver self. Another one brought up the idea of sharing 500 naira to pregnant women. Tufiakwa!!! Go and read more on the specialized mother and child hospitals that Mimiko built across senatorial zones many years ago. Even the Soludo you've been shouting up and down, we are yet to see the "solutions" he promised one year on. Some of us supported Obi just because a power shift to your region is just fair, not exactly like he's got the midas touch among the leading candidate. Even Kwankwaso will beat him hands down, performance wise. He who lives in a glass house doesn't throw stones.

successmatters:
Bigots, closet bigots are being unmasked

Some people knows that the class of armed robbers ruling Nigeria is killing the country and its inhabitants, but they will support the crook yo rule and rob the people blind, as long as he's their brother.

You are hurting yourself, it's still you and your people that will suffer the effects of poverty, avoidable diseases and insecurity.

Chimamanda was right, people complaining are supporting evil.

Igbo people are really not helping themselves putting all their hopes on Obi. What they are actually supposed to be doing is to lobby for prominent positions in Tinubu's government, rather than abuse everyone up and down. Their celebrities are making things unbearable with their online influence, from that Okoye guy to this, who dragged her entire writing career to the mud by tagging Biden to the internal affairs of Nigeria. Even Obasanjo, as influential as he his cannot write such a spiteful letter to Biden and expect action, foolish girl!
Everyone knows that the 2023 presidential elections were not transparent in Nigeria and the matter is before the judiciary, so ideally if nothing stops Tinubu's inauguration, there is nothing Biden can do, either he congratulates him or not.

Inasmuch as we have responsibility to demand accountability from government spending, we citizens too have our own part to pay. Are you a construction expert? Common sense demands that if you're building a bridge inside a large river, in a plain zone and another in the middle belt region which is mostly rocky, there will be great price differences. You need to factor the cost of relocation of people whose land is affected in the east alongside. I don't like the Buhari administration as much as you do, but let's be factual

History555:
This bridge and adjoining roads is 182 km. 2nd niger bridge and adjoining roads is 17km. Yet this bridge and adjoining roads is cost 56 billion but 2nd niger bridge costs 175 billion

your link isn't going thru

Oga if you're still counting your losses concerning Chinedu, I suggest you move on. Obi we know, but where exactly has Gbadebo built that he wants to come and build new Lagos? When they say Eko Oni baje, it's a very deep statement. At least Obi was governor and he led many profitable ventures prior his coming to politics. Chinedu thinks its by just speaking English and crying about tribalism like a baby, so Lagos should be handed over to him. Shioor!

Brendaniel:
Is that why you would not let legitimate voters decide who will lead them, who are you to tell others what is right and wrong outside of the constitution, at least let those who want to vote for him vote for him....

Let's stop this boring argument. Indian American heading the World Bank because of competence. Not because his mother is from India and father American. If you know how to build bridges and strategize well, anyone can be anything.

Brendaniel
post=122177816:
Indian American heading world bank, while somewhere in Nigeria some people cannot allow the indigene of a state rule his own state because his mother is from another tribe..

The world needs more people like Elon Musk who does their own thing and don't follow popular notion and less yes-men like Bill Gates. Apart from his stinginess, his terrible Twitter memes and his misogynic tendencies, I believe Elon is a great guy.

Abians may not rejoice just yet. There is an uncomfortable friendliness between Otti and Ikpeazu that should worry everyone. No governor in Nigeria congratulates his opponent from another party and wishes him well and even advises his party not to go to court.
The smile of a crocodile and the brotherhood of Nigerian politicians are 1 and 2. Even this "rebuke" looks more like a friendly advise. Imagine praying that he spends 8 years... The same Otti was downplaying Obi the other day. Something is definitely fishy. Perhaps they brought the idea of a victory for labour party from their Whatsapp group. Abians may have been scammed!

Alas, you're right. They will all be under government house protection, transported to functions on state expense, eating state food and all. This is even much worst because it suggests that the first Lady isn't going to perform her ceremonial duty to the less privileged in the state

AquaPetals:
Calm down!

Buhary said the same thing: No provision for office of the first lady. But what did we finally get?
Aisha globe-trotting with tax-payers money under the pretext of gracing one world event or the other.

So the part of tropical crops don't cover for vegetables right? Thank God you point out that people fly into the UK for cultivation and harvest. Agriculture has moved beyond traditional hoe and cutlass on open fields now to a highly scientific, value based activity. New research allows you to grow crops underwater now, so the world has moved beyond putting unemployed youths to go farm inside sun. Let think of knowledge based economy.

Golan007:
Which Almost self-sustaining?

Na so una go dey lie.

Firstly, there are no vegetables in UK (mostly imported) as we speak.

Secondly, in farming season, Europeans and others fly into UK to cultivate and harvest crops.

UK is a mature economy, they do not even need to farm and they would be better off than most.

Nigeria has teeming pulopulation of unemployed youths and farming is a good way to keep them busy and put some money in their pocket.

I do however agree with your opinion on single crop farming.

We need diversity yet farming is a veritable source of employment.

Sounds true. The leadership standards keep dropping every blessed day. Seems all it takes to rule Nigeria nowadays is to be able to pronounce "it is my turn" fluently. Trends has shown that previous leaders are well appreciated back to back while out of office. What is to stop Buhari's turn to come?

What a stoupid plan! To wipe out 85% of forests and bushes in Nigeria for the monocropping of maize. Normally, I wouldn't have replied on a normal day, but this level of stUupidity is bewildering. Britain has about 2% of it's population directly involved in agriculture but is almost self-sustaining in food production through mechanized agriculture. Perhaps only tropical crops demand export. So we should leave other crops and focus on maize farming so we can start distributing to old people to roast on the road. Sounds like a good plan!

Iamdbull:
The purpose of this write is to share my idea on how we can tackle the 4 major issue of the nigerian with one stone. The issues include insecurity, food security, bad economy and unemployment.


Agbado in nigeria, is the local name of popular food crop Maize and it was popularized by the president-elect of the federal republic of Nigeria.This has come under criticism here and there and I am here to shed more light on the hidden wealth that can be derived from the food crop as a graduate of Agriculture.

First off I will start off by listing things that can be derived from Agbado:

1.Direct consumption
2.Feed for chicken and other livestock.
3.Corn flakes
4.Pop corn
5.Golden Morn
6.Pap
7.Starch
8.Flour
9.Cereals
10.Masa/Egb`o and many more.

The first step we can take as a country is to employ 50 million youths
The second step is procure 3600 tractors and give 100 each to each states.
Then the government should ensure 75% to 85% of forest and bushes in Nigeria are cleared off, by doing this alone we have wiped out the hides out of Boko haram, Bandits, kidnappers and criminals in Nigeria and to some extent insecurity has been tackled.
Then we embark on mass plantation of “AGBADO” (or other crops)
While our “AGBADO” is growing, we start building companies for production of livestock feed,corn flakes, golden morn, starch, cereals etc.
While our “AGBADO” is ready and harvested we can give it out for free to old people to roast at the roadside and sell for a subsidized amount.
Then we distribute to various companies for their respective processing.
Then we give those feeds from feed mill freely to livestock farmers to support them.
Then the corn flakes, golden morn, pop corn made can be used to support the primary school feeding programs.
The rest can be exported and revenue generated.
And the list is endless.


I will love to get your feedback and opinion on this.

Note: This is not to solicit for Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, just some thoughts from an hungry mind.
Not withstanding wishing our Agile president Elect a Beautiful Belated Birthday.
Yours Truly
