Just go and donate your common sense to the nearest medical library. You are dumb to a fault, conservatism is the present day madness in the USA check out the irritating thought process of Stephen King, Stephen Miller, Micheal Spencer, Judge Roy Moore, David Duke, Joe arpio and Joe Walsh.

they don't like you
They want their country
Why do you want to force your way of life on them but don't want theirs forced on you.
Ignore them or face the consequences

Mathematically, its very true but it would take good farm practice and great marketing to accomplish.
with 2000 orange trees producing more than 500 fruits per season you would get a million fruits.
At N10 a fruit you would be hitting 10mil. So it is possible but it would require great work and planing. Don't just plant and go to bed. decide on the variety, prepare against diseases. Maintain and irrigate. Then market early and aggressively

200 trees at 7 by 7 m spacing per hectare

U should be ashamed of urself for encouraging such indiscipline. Why don't u guys learn from a more civilized military, like d USA? Na for armless civilians una dey get power,common bokoharam dey make una dey mess up n down.

Oh oh. Mikolo80. . I can say the same, nothing good can come out of APC. I would have thought you to be an APC fan if you had not spoken against Ambode. Glad to know you are not partial. But you are still getting it wrong, so it seems. Let me summarize that Atiku and Buhari should not be an option for the presidency let's see what other parties have for us and we choose wisely. Jonathan and Obj are incomparable. While one is soft, listens to people and tries to please them all(a mistake) , the other is strick and enforces his rules. Obj would have been Nigeria's best president but he didn't do much to salvage Nigeria's situation even after 8 yrs. Presidency is not limited to APC and PDP let's vote for the best man.

correction
2 good things came out of APC Jonathan and PDP were removed and power of incumbency has been demystified

I don't mind another president so long as its not PDP cos if they ever get into power they will never allow an unrigged election again.

Again none of the other parties have candidates that can win.
They lack money
They lack name recognition
They lack ideas
They lack conviction
All useless from Chris OKotie to uTomi to gani to Soyinka

Brilliant in their fields
Useless in politics or economics

FILEBE:
You are assuming wrongly. There are people in other parties that wants to make a difference. It seems APC and PDP have succeeded in brainwashing us all. We are not a two party system so why base the election on both?

intention is not the same .even Jonathan and obj wanted to make a difference. And ppl can tell who is serious and who isn't. And most people and parties are not serious.good intentions is not enough. I want results not intentions. That's why I voted for apc to get rid of apc . Nothing good can come of PDP.

Your mother left her husband and went to ugwuawusa where she slept with an Hausa man who fathered you and your younger brother.

So where is the federal character violated, am sure we can take them to court since they fail to.
Anyway that percentage actually caught my attention. a minimum of 2.5% (maximum of 3.6%) of every MDA shall come from each federating units (states). But in general this is what we have
Imo- 6.5%
Kogi- 6.49%
Ogun -5.22%
Akwa Ibom- 4.93%
Delta - 4.93%
Abia - 4.00%
Anambra - 4.00%
...and the bottom feeders

Kano - 1.72%
Katsina -1.38%
Yobe - 0.83%
Sokoto - 0.82%
Jigawa - 0.75%
Zamfara - 0.61%
In summary it's the states accused of being favored that are actually the ones marginalised. Most of them with by far below the law required minimum of 2.5%.

In 2019, the candidate may count more than the party. The parties are the same anyway

candidate can count in any party. Not pdp. That party is evil PDP

GodIsBiafran:
My problem is that it is distracting us from facing our own issues. This energy we are using to lay claim to Lagos online can be used to hold our elected officials accountable for their actions. I believe we Igbos are the most industrious tribe in Africa, however, we have to direct our energies towards the right direction.

you think Ibo' or any tribe are interested in holding any governor accountable. Mob psychology no o gree dem. It's human nature to blame others. Even Americans blaming immigrants for their problems.

Nigeria - It’s time for Our Generation!

Generation wen de pop champagne in midst of poverty instead of entering farm

I have been silent about Nigeria because rather than add another layer of talk to the available debates

E never pepper you properly
Shebi you Don chop Beleful

, I have been spending time working and thinking about practical things that my generation can do to make Nigeria better. I have also been observing a few laudable initiatives from a few people, and I think it’s time!

Good for you

Don’t get me wrong, it’s not time for us to run for President

Sad but true
Although I think we should for the fun of it
If Jonathan or yaradua can win them anything is possible

, except of course we want to add trying to be president to our curriculum vitae. Outside of this, if we really want to make a practical stab at statesmanship and lending our skills and talents to the polity, it would be by being practical and serious.

In 2011, I went around Nigeria campaigning for a ticket I believed in. I campaigned for people to get PVC, I became a mobile registration centre for party membership for a party in Nigeria. I even got involved in helping to set up a political party. I took my own personal funds, canvassed with my friends to do the same, and travelled around Nigeria meeting with different communities, going to churches and visiting mosques to convince and show support for a ticket I believed in. I traveled by road and by air. I printed fliers, printed a brochure, and committed no less than the energy of business to this enterprise. I spent and I was spent. I didn’t want anything in return,

This is why you failed

I only wanted to play my part in a Nigeria that works.

It is working....
the way we deserve

The ticket did not win in 2011, but Buhari would not have been an option in 2015 if not for the efforts we put in in 2011.

Na lie
He was only option after Jonathan failed woefully

He would not have a Pastor as His vice if not for the effort we put in 2011

He has pastor because we carry religion for head

. I remember the call that Debola put across to me in 2015 when they were getting set to endorse and support Buhari’s candidacy. What we did back then was real, and the people we rallied to make it happen are alive. 2011 and 2015 were our years to serve those who will serve, our time to serve the people is here!

Demographically, Nigeria has more people under 35 than above it. The generation of middle age people are in the majority, but politics is not just a game of numbers, it’s in strategic numbers. When 6 lions totally disorient a herd of 3,000 buffalo’s it’s not about the numbers, it’s about the strategy, the synergy, and the proactive thought that goes on before the encounter. If my generation will ever serve this nation, and use all the endowments we have to further her cause we must be strategic.

Now you're talking my language

Here is what I believe we need to do!

I believe we need to run for elective offices. We need 50 Nigerians under 50 from different cities in Nigeria and with different faiths who have interest in a New Nigeria and in it’s leadership. These should be 50 people with the following qualifications

I think we should just form new party gabadaya
130,000 ppl (1 per voting booth)

1. Solid profile - People who have actually demonstrated that they can solve problems, provide leadership and show enough personal mastery to be given responsibility for others.

Who will judge the solidity of the profile
This is how classIsm starts
Youo con gada gra pipo con ignore rural pipo

2. Sustainable - People who are able to sustain themselves, and their families, and do not need to be in government to be sustained. It must not be about the rewards of office, these people must have transcended food, shelter and clothing.

Most governors were sustainable yet greed no o gree
Tis human nature

3. Followership - People who can schedule a meeting and 1,000 people will show up.

Item number 7all you need

4. Interest - People who have done some things in the past that shows that they have interest in Nigeria and in its leadership.

Nobody is intereste
That's why we up sheetscreek
Human nature

My desire is if we can find 4 of these people from every state in Nigeria, we can organize them together in such a way that they can leverage on each others influences, provide support in exchange for support from key officers running for elective offices in 2019. These people can run for State Assembly or National Assembly positions now and in 2023. At the end of all the shuffling and stepping aside, we can be left with 50 solid Nigerians under the age of 50, who can begin to make their entry into the political terrain. Doing this for 2019 will be rehearsals, we can’t expect anything really other than the people we each support winning, but if we get a few offices in, in 2019, that would be amazing.

You don't even have confidence in your plan
What if one of these youths pops is a billionaire
Why can't he win

If we can get together these types of people, I daresay, we can get the President to meet with them, get a few Governors to address them and show them some ropes

You expect devils to show you how to beat them

. We can get them to begin to work on policy ideas and agenda that they will push in the house, way ahead of their being there. If we can have good representation in the Legislature we would be the backbone of any serious executive. We have seen first hand, that presidency alone will not move Nigeria forward.

You've seen a week presidency

We need to evolve the Nation we want by bombarding it purposefully from every side.

Yes we do
Economically
Politically
Socially
But mostly economically
All man should enter farm
Mobilise
Then buy politicians

Do you have people you will like to nominate for this 50 under 50 conference? Why not simply offer us their names, why you think they are qualified based on the 4 requirements above and, I am sorry for now - their state of origin.

I nominate me and you
Why are we always nominating ppl to run our ideas
Since primary school
Always abdicating responsibility
Now realising nobody will care for you like you

Please submit them here publicly on facebook or fill their names privately in this form. https:///TXriZ9

After nominating and them no gree nko
You go force dem?

Please feel free to SHARE this on your page, and get your friends to fill this form. Success would be having enough contenders from each state of Nigeria.

This plan obviously doesn’t cover all elements but we must begin to act rather than theorize. Questions like which party

All parties

, how will it work?

Figure it out as we go along

Won’t they be infiltrated?

Infiltrate them right back

These are very good questions, but what I have learnt from business and a little politics is if we don’t venture, we never learn.

Nothing risked nothing gained

So let’s get on the ship, learn from those who have gone ahead, solve the challenges on the way and at the end, deliver the Nigeria of our dreams. To this I pledge. Do you?

https:///TXriZ9

I do

One of the reasons why Buhari won 2015 was a lot of people felt pdp could not be dismantled and hence they didn't vote.That figure is put at around 40m and you then add that figure to the millions that will turn 18 in 2019.The parlous state of Nigerian economy and security will push a lot of people to go and vote.Anybody that believes Buhari stands a chance in another general election must surely be watching baba suwe comedy video

so long as its pdp buhari will win

Truth be told other tribes has tasted aso villa except the Igbo race that is why the country remains like these.
Give an Igbo man the chance and see nigeria develop rapidly in a span of just 2yrs only not to to talk of 4 to 8yrs.

yet he can't develop his village

FILEBE:
.

Who says we don't have much choice?

Name them

We have more than 12 political parties with different candidates for elections.

Name them
You can't cos they're not serious
Just there to collect inec money or for disgruntled elements to run to if they don't win party primaries

Which other choices do we have again? Did you Vote Kowa party!?

I don't know their candidate. If he can't make himself known then he's not ready.

Did you vote labour party? Did you vote Upn and lots more? We have choices o just that we have been made to look like we don't have.

So if I bring innoson car and Benz which will you choose.
Not only must they come out. They MUST CONVINCE voters that they can deliver. Actions louder than words

You might be right about Ambode not reaching his full potential. I actually don't like or vouch for any Nigerian politician. They should just work well is my own.

see you don't vote yet want change.

Anyway recent research shows that we don't need govt to solve most of our problems

MrBrownJay1:
Nigeria will remain a failed state so long as people vote based on tribe, instead of ABILITIES!

Nigerians will vote on tribe until candidates with ABILITIES SHOW THE FVCK UP

See as wailers eye come down as .why would any sane individual miss Jonathan

FILEBE:
Yes you have a point here but we can try what other parties churn out. Experience has failed us in this country. We have been recycling leadership, same old leaders. We will evaluate what other parties Re coming out with and vote. APC and PDP will fail us again. In Lagos sha, Ambode is not doing bad.

voters are ever ready to try new persons but they don't have much choice when there are no votees to choose from. And ambode
Is just as useless as fashola. Doing just enough to win reelection but not actually his full potential to move Lagos forward. No agric or industrial investment. All na wash

FILEBE:
He is loved by his people and was re-elected. Free school buses, free Christmas and salah gifts, he tars the roads, he mixes with commoners and nothing happens. He won his constituency with a wide margin. I am also trying to say we have power to vote in and vote out whoever we like.

who free stuff Epp. Breeds laziness. But good for him winning reelection as a minority party. I agree we have the power but we cannot force candidates to run for office. We have to choose among the bold greedy ones cos the 'righteous ' are waiting for godfather to come and beg them in their bedroom. It's like a fine girl choosing an ugly husband because the fine one was too scared to ask her out
