When people come to offer advice, we should never forget how they feared when they had the opportunity. OBJ, IBB, Danjuma etc are not fighting Buhari because of the masses. They are simply fighting to protect their age long control over Nigeria that they are now losing. They no longer have access to the resources of the country and hence, are fighting back for what they think is their birthright. Nigerians really need to be wise.

There's a reason for Babangida's criticism of Obasanjo.

Obasanjo has criticised every government that he has not been part of.

He criticised Shagari's government so much that Shagari had to send Umaru Dikko to Ota to find out what the problem was.

He criticised Babangida's government and said that Babangida's economic policies did not have a "human face". This was despite the fact that Babangida often drove to Ota (secretly) to hold discussions with Obasanjo.

This is why Babangida also often criticised Obasanjo's government (1999-2007) and that's the reason for the headline in the picture you posted.

He criticised Abacha and Abacha jailed him. He criticised Yar'Adua and Yar'Adua sidelined him. He criticised Goodluck Jonathan and Jonathan's supporters blamed him for their hero's loss at the polls. And now he is criticising Buhari.

@hungerbad. I said that the NTA was terrible at putting their videos online and I also said that many people have been killed in Zamfara virtually every week since 2016.

Well, someone has uploaded an NTA video to Twitter. Here's NTA's report about the killings in a village in Zamfara last week.

Warning: It is shocking and disturbing.

I'm a bit confused. She's not in that list above, but Sophia Omotola Omidiji said that she was invited to join the team.

deomelo:
Both of them did not commission anything.

Jona went for dedication and PMB went to inspect.


BTW, show us where PMB claimed he commissioned anything because he did not.

Wow! Somebody actually understands!

How do you commission something that has not been completed and is not ready for use??

Definition of commission.

2 bring (something newly produced) into working condition.

"we had a few hiccups getting the heating equipment commissioned"

Unfortunately when some Nigerians see a plaque and a ribbon being cut they automatically assume that it's a "commissioning".

Nothing so wrong, only that some people may need interpreter

That picture was taken at a Lasema road show. The goal is to make people aware of the emergency numbers and Lasema's services. In order to do this effectively, they must communicate with people in the languages that they can understand.

If you look at the base of the sign in the picture on the opening post, you will see that part of the sign is in English.

There were other signs at the road show and some of them were in English (see below).

horsepower101:
I hope he prints the tax and legal documents in Yoruba too.

Btw this is very unconstitutional. The only official language recognized by the constitution of Nigeria is English.

What makes it unconstitutional?

These are the languages that are recognised by the constitution.


55. 

The business of the National Assembly shall be conducted in English, and in Hausa, Ibo and Yoruba when adequate arrangements have been made therefor.

97. 

The business of a House of Assembly shall be conducted in English, but the House may in addition to English conduct the business of the House in one or more other languages spoken in the State as the House may by resolution approve.

Sunnynwa:
What is happening here then?

Obviously whoever was handling Ambode's Twitter account made a mistake, because all the official Lagos State accounts, the commissioner of information (during his press briefing), the Presidency's accounts and the reports on the NTA and LTV (both before and after the visit) state that he had an inspection tour. Nothing was commissioned.

Zombie alert!!!!!
By their line of arguements thou shall know them.
Talk about A they argue along B
Aburo Na here I go leave you with your zombiesm seem you are irredeemable
SMH

Argumentum ad hominem. You ignore the issue because you can't back up your claims, and resort to insults. Why am I not surprised.

oloriooko:
Run go where? Say because you be zombie abi
All am saying if you need a breakdown is that your master came to commission a plaque saying he was on tour and your most concern is who I stalled or who didn't?
Just imagine the future of most so called youth in this nation, running away from the main point but dwelling on the irrelevant SMH

1) Nobody is my master.

2) "Just imagine the future of most so called youth". It's difficult to understand what this poorly constructed sentence frag means, but if you are trying to say that I'm a youth, then you are funnier than I thought.

3) You are the one that quoted me and made a claim. I asked you to prove your claim and you couldn't, instead you keep throwing red herrings and trying to change the subject. It was YOU that said that Buhari erected the plaque, you also stated that Buhari instructed Ambode to erect the plaque. Prove your claims or stf.

I'm not interested in your APC vs PDP rubbish, but when you quote me and make a claim, then you should be able to prove it! Anybody that has attended school knows that you should question claims that are presented to you and that the person making the claim should be able to back it up with facts and evidence, not gossip (I don't know what school you attended).

Kids of nowadays just type any nonsense that comes to their head without being able to prove it. That's what beer parlour gossip mongers do.

EchoCharlie:
And why is she dressed as a LovePeddler?

Don't you think that question should be addressed to her?

oloriooko:
Were you there when he instructed him? Advocate of mediocrity well done oo

I thought so. He can't answer my very simple question.

I made a statement of fact. You quoted me and claimed that Buhari installed the plaque. I asked you if Buhari was the one that installed the plaque. You couldn't defend your claim, instead you ran away and made another claim. You claimed that Buhari instructed Ambode to erect the plaque. I asked you to prove your claim. Again you couldn't prove your claim and instead you made another crazy claim that I'm defending mediocrity. If you are asked to show where I defended anything, you'll end up running away again. You are very funny.

oloriooko:
He must have instructed Ambode to install a commemorative plaque saying he came on a tour, is that not joblessness? A whole president fa!

"He must have". Were you there when he instructed Ambode or do you have any proof of this instruction (i.e. Buhari's instruction to Ambode)??

oloriooko:
And the dude had to commission a plaque to commemorate his tour of the project
What arrant nonsense Dude is so jobless that he had to install a plaque saying he came for a tour!
This country is in deep shiiittt!!!!

@bold, was he the one that installed the plaque?

collinsVP:
Eko Atlantic phase 1

Eko Atlantic phase 2

Nothing was commissioned. The Lagos State Government simply took President Buhari on a tour of the project. It wasn't even a case of phase 1 or phase 2, it was just a tour of the project (the same way Obasanjo toured the project when he visited Lagos in 2003).
