OlamiB:
I spent the last two weeks in my aunty's place and she and her family beliefs that there is a punishment from God to whoever waste cooked food. I dnt know how true this is because I have a frnd that also doesn't waste food simply because God will punish her.

Sometimes food just doesn't waste intentionally, you cnt force yourself to eat excess food you have to leave it as left over.

What is your say about this?

Mogidi:
About time we have two super powers, since the demise of the old Soviet Union, America has remained invisible till now, anyway I still prefer Western democracy.

AJOT99:

Lies. dont think this is true

odun4love: How many Nigerians can answer amen to this prayer?

May the Almighty God shape your life as the PDP has shaped the economy of
nigeria in the last fifteen
years.!

Bash92: This is all aregbe could do in 4 years abi some of it ? 1)True, Oyinlola awarded the contract for the 6 stadium but Aregbesola cancelled all the contract for the 6 stadium before work could begin on it except the one in osogbo. Where is the money set aside for the stadium? Ask your paymaster Aregbe not Oyinlola. 2)Where are the 100,000 youth Aregbe employed and trained ? Cos I haven't been seeing them. 3) Where are the roads he expanded? After four years Aregbesola hasn't completed a single major road, all is projects are under construction. 4) Where are the 100s schools he constructed, the school he build isn't even up to 10. 5) Oyinlola started the meal per day with egg for primary school pupil, so that aint new. From all the things you listed the only thing that is true is the 10km road in each local government, it is even done with the local government allocation. Which brings the question where is the state allocation going to? Even the not upto 10 mega school he constructed was done with the universal basic education money. So TRY AGAIN NEXT TIME YOU and YOUR PAYMASTER CANT DECEIVE US AGAIN

Fire15: Which type the charm do you want? Is it back to sender or the one that will cause the gun not to fire at all,or the one that will the gun too hot to handle, at the point of shooting. Yorubas have local hand grenades, they come in the form of eggs, bean cakes(akara) groundnuts and even loaf of bread.
The soldiers will not have any problem, if they are there to keep the peace and not to intimidate or promote any partisan interests.
Alakiyo, Nassarawa state will be a child play, if they behave like thugs and try to intimidate the electorate. So many things can happen to them, amongst which insanity, epilepsy, sudden death etc.

Femmyfamous4u: Please dear, don't remind me of Goodluck's subsidy removal again. There was no bus distributed by him.

Danfoditee: Shut up

truGambit: Deciphering lyrics n cracking punchlines have always been one fascination for me. Most people sit n listen to music just for the beat n catchy jingle like lyrics....nahh....none of those crapy ish, commercial BS for me....
Once upon a tym,it used to b all foreign hip hop krooners;nas,Talib kwali, common, the notorious , immortal techniquetupac ,a tribe called quest, bone thugs n harmony , mos def,(now I CNT even remember some names).....
These cats dropped punchlines n murdered beats faster than assassins on a killing spree. A pure blend of fiery word play,sick punchlines, braggadicio , n sher genius is wat u get whenever u press play.
Over the years hip hop has evolved in Nigeria. Though a lot of wack emcees have also emerged(wudnt call names to avoid wahala)....some real emcees have kept their own.some made It to d mainstream,some remained underground .These rappers in more ways than none have over time caught our ears with their genius lyrics, crazy lines n freestyles.....here's a list of my favourite 9ja lyricist of all tyms.pls feel free to drop ur own list .

olaezebala: Osogbo is one of the cheapest.
The only place in Nigeria where buying of generating set is useless.

saasala: I dont even know what to believe anymore.

Zionope: I put it straight to you that you're not a concern indegen of osun state, but a PDP follower.

Neyoor: Ogbeni Aregbesola is going to win the election with a wide margin...... If u like bet ur entire family.

We're wise in Osun state.

VICTORCIZA: stop ranting kid

Hostermipo: Lol, and who told you they went there because of the governor? .

let me tell you this, 85 % of those you see at aregbesola's campaign went because of the musicians present ( k1 the ultimate, wasiu and the likes) I know large numbers of people that are PDP members that went when he visited my area because of the musician. let aregbesola hold a campaign and announce on radio that no musician will be present, the you will see the numbers of people that are actually behind him.

bashydemy: You stop blabbing, I school in Esa-Oke and i know little about ijesha, they will always support there son and will never forget the death of Bola Ige and related to Omisore.... and about the 4 LG in Ife you right but they all will not support Omisore. Ife North is where Ipetumodu,Edoabon,Moro,Ashipa etc are... Ife south is ifetedo and ife central is the main ife... so which is the last one ooo? Meanwhile the likes of Ede, Osogbo, Ikire, Ikirun, Sekona, Iwo, etc will always vote Aregbe so do your maths very well

Dasini: Am from the same home town with omisore, but no comparison between aregbe and omisore, aregbe stands tall above omisore. Omisore will win ile-Ife, bt e-goats never sit to delibrate on the ijesha zone where aregbe hails from. From the city gate in ilesha, ask an average ijesha man, or beter still okada man, they will tell you aregbe is their man, ijesha zone has the largest voters in the whole osun of state, ilesha, obokun, erin-ijesha, ijebu-jesa, iloko-ijesa, osu. it has abt 8 local govts, and people sit to delibrate on ile-ife with two local govts, don't be deceived osun election will be totally different from ekiti. ife alone cannot give omisore victory. And the truth be told, this man was deputy governor, later became senator for 8yrs, what was his achievement for 12yrs in corridor of power. Am among the few ife sons, that will nt allow being from same place to blind my sense of reasoning. Hav met this man(omisore) before, nt a single bill was passed by him in 8yrs. From is speech alone, you will know this man is nt only empty, bt aside God knows where he got his money from, has got nothing to offer osun state. I say it again, aregbe will floor omisore at the polls.

fijiano202: sorry bro,i disagree. a dead Aregbe is better than 50 living omisore..pls name 2 of omisore acheivement in osun

fijiano202: when last did u visit osun state cos omisore is not liked in osun..they call him 419 some still hold him responsible for bola Ige death..Omisore is a man who has done nothing to his constituency..The only prob Aregbeshola has is the prob with christains

fijiano202: Mumu,osun is not like ekiti..they are more traditional and believes in their oracles than their believe in islam and christianity...do u think osun can be man-handled...ask people abt the modakeke vs ife battle

XALONSO: At exactly 6.00 Am in the morning, two buses leave Maza-maza in
Mile 2, Lagos, for Onitsha in Anambra state. One bus is called
Malaysia and the other bus is called Nigeria. Six hours later,
Malaysia is in Ore while Nigeria is in Sagamu. Bus Malaysia is
moving at an average speed of 60 kilometers an hour, while bus
Nigeria is moving at an average of 10 kilometers an hour. If bus
Nigeria is to meet bus Malaysia, at what speed should bus Nigeria
be moving? Where on the road to Onitsha will the two buses meet?
And when?
This is one of the mathematical problems that end the science
career of most Nigerian students. The other one is this simple one:
a man wakes up in the morning and decides to go to the market
by foot. He takes one step forward and two steps backward. At
the end of the day, where will he be along the road to the
market?
Most Nigerians do not understand these mathematical problems.
Our politicians know that and they are capitalizing on that
ignorance to fool us all.
Since coming into power in1999, the ruling People’s Democratic
Party (PDP) has shown Nigerians who they really are. They do not
pretend anymore about their vision for the country. They say that
they want to transform Nigeria into Brazil. They think as if they
want Nigeria to be Mexico. They act as if they want Nigeria to be,
at best, Pakistan; or at worse, Afghanistan. Most Nigerians have
come to accept the PDP for who they are.
The same cannot be said about the opposition, the All Progressive
Congress (APC). They still behave as if they have something
magical to offer. They are solely counting on Nigerians inability to
figure out the answers to those two mathematical problems above.
Mr. Bola Tinubu is the paramount leader of the opposition, APC.
The primary charge of the APC is to present a different vision for
the country- a vision that will separate it from the ruling PDP.
As everyone who cares about the progress of Nigeria can attest,
one of the areas of change needed in Nigeria is the enthronement
of meritocracy and the disengagement of mediocrity from our
public life. You don’t need to be a progressive to know this. It is
very fundamental. And that is the very first place that Bola
Tinubu’s APC has failed.
Tinubu and his friends in APC would rather force their families
and friends on the electorate. It is no longer democracy when the
consent of the electorates at whatever level is not sought and,
when sought, is not respected. In a democracy, there is no
sacrament as sacred as the consent of the people and there is no
oath as potent as we, the people. Those who defy them bring upon
their heads truckloads of eternal curses.
The second area where the Tinubu gang has failed to make a clean
cut from the PDP is in not raising the standard of what public
service should be. States run by APC governors are not
distinguishable from those run by the PDP governors. Local
governments run by APC chairmen are not different from those
run by PDP chairmen. APC members of the National Assembly(the
Senate and the House of Representative) have not performed any
better than their PDP counterparts. The APC members collect the
same obscene salaries and allowances the PDP members collect
without protest. Just like their PDP counterparts, the APC
lawmakers have failed to rewrite the laws of Nigeria to make the
country a more just society. Yet, they claim progressive
credentials.
The expectations of the people of Nigeria are so low it is obscene.
Knowing that, the Tinubu gang at APC has set the bar of good
governance even lower. They totally ignore the fact that, for
Nigeria to move out of its current pedestrian orbit and jump into
an edifying one, the country needs a drastic jolt. A people beaten
up for decades can be forgiven for wallowing in low expectations
but not a leadership that parades itself as a progressive
alternative.
This hypocrisy manifests in opposition characters like Rochas
Okorocha, the governor of Imo state. This showman came into
office with a promise to rescue Imo state from the scourge of
PDP’s let downs. After twelve years of ineptness and corruption
under Achike Udenwa and Ikedi Ohakim, the people of Imo state
thought they were getting a messiah in Okorocha.
Okorocha came in with an eye on a national office and an
exaggerated sense of importance. With a war chest that included
a redeployed N2.5 billion naira a year security vote, he embarked
on an unsophisticated show of abracadabra. He moved from one
half-baked project into another. His policies are not any
different. They lack focus and vigorous examination. He
undermined his constituents and finished off his party (APGA)
where Peter Obi had left it to die.
When Boko Haram threat got to Imo state, the man who had been
an enthusiastic supporter of mosque constructions in the state
decided that the best reaction was to issue all northerners in his
state an ID card. That was the best solution that his brain could
figure out. It was simplistic and without an iota of regard to the
wider implication of such a policy. But it was quintessential
Okorocha.
The pedigree of Tinubu, Okorocha and their likes are troubling
enough that a descent society would not hang its hopes on their
types. From their upbringing, educational accomplishment, to
their source of wealth, these men would be too ashamed to be in
public life if Nigeria were a sane society. Nigeria is a country in
search of heroes. Every Batman, Spiderman, Ratman and
Roachman is pounding his heart and claiming to be a hero- the
Nigerian hero.
Tinubu, Okorocha and others, know that Rome was not build by
men who took one step forward and two steps backward. They
know that a man who takes a step forward and two steps
backwards is retrogressing. But they have specialized in
amplifying that step forward to create an impression of a
forward movement. Tinubu, Okorocha and others, know that for
bus Nigeria to catch up with a stationary bus Malaysia, it needs to
travel at a speed of 60 kilometers an hour for 6 hours. To get to
a static bus Malaysia in 3 hours, bus Nigeria needs to travel at
120 kilometers an hour.
Tinubu, Okorocha and others, know that bus Malaysia is not static
but on the move at an average speed of 60 kilometers an hour.
They are happy to claim that they are heroes because they are
promising to get bus Nigeria moving at 25 kilometers an hour.
The trouble with Tinubu, et al, is not that they are pretending to
be the brightest crayons in the box. We can see from afar that
they are not. The trouble is that they are invariably creating the
impression that all the crayons in the box are as dull as they are.
That’s the trouble and our tragedy

VICTORCIZA: once upon a time during fayemi, fayose political tussle in ekiti, many learned yoruba men and women in nairaland criticize him for his anti people's policies.
Apc supporters here on nairaland tag them igbo people and they said that their opinions are very inconsequential but when the day OF reckoning came they were proven wrong!
now fast forward to osun state election ,many learned men are pointing out the ills of aregbesola which includes forging of certificate, trying to islamise osun state, using substandard materials IN excuting projects, abandoned projects, using Lagos engineers and workers to handle osun projects thereby neglecting osun engineers and governing osun state from Lagos.

Rather than telling aregbe to correct his mistakes before IT is too late these evil birds are busy self servicing with the name igbo!!!
IT is OK when the time comes we will know

PapaBrowne: Funny how the same people who have spent a portion of their lives insulting the President for tribal reasons are the ones complaining about insults on a Governor.

I personally do not support insults as I always love to engage in mutually beneficial discussions, however, it is obvious Aregbeshola is a thug type embodied with rascality. But we are thankful for God's mercies as the "State of Osun" will be delivered from the thieving hands of the Governor and his master, Tinubu in exactly 29days!

FreeGlobe: as usual, you will not get it..

mikeansy: people just come up with dreams that are so strange to the political realities in Nigeria.


Fashola / Oshiomole two Southerners . . . . . . . . . . . . not sure Nigeria has gotten to the stage of producing 2 southerners as President and Vice

Fashola is a good guy but nobody in the south west will be President in the next 30years
