Gej has wasted the turn of South south. It would have been the turn of south east for justice sake if they had known how to play proper politics. In the absence of south east, the next turn is south west.

wirinet:
GEJ democrat per excellence? How? Even GEJ's wife and children would not hero worship the way you worship the former President. GEJ's government that harassed media houses, national assembly and APC offices?

How was it possible for Amaechi to be in jail today, when he was governor during Jonathan's administration? Please explain.

Here is a review of some "freedom" enjoyed during the tenure of your democrat per excellence as posted by a nairaland member with intact memory.

wirinet:
Which freedom enjoyed under GEJ. You guys will forever wail GEJ's election loss, even when GEJ and his people have since moved on.

If sowore called for an unconstitutional change of government during GEJ's time, he would been cooling his heels in prison.
If any US citizen boasts he will bundle Trump out of office, while holding rallies for a revolution, the FBI and secret service would have dealt with him.

ColonelEmeka:
Sowore never miscalculated. He knew exactly what he was doing and what he was aiming for. He said and i quote

"I'm not talking of protest. I'm embarking on revolution. 85% of Nigerians are in support. Don't tell me about legal implications or what a Judge will say. I don't care. We must bundle Buhari out of that place...the DSS shall seize to exist!"

With the words in red you can see he never miscalculated but knew what he was doing

oyatz:
You are trying to give answers to a question that was never asked.

1) Was the South ever a monolithic and united political entity? Let's assume that the South was a united political entity, must everybody in the South belong to or support the PDP to prove this 'unity'?

Even in the North all the States have NEVER voted for only one party.

2)Our democracy can only grow when the citizens have plurality of options. The idea that only one political party should continue to win the presidential election doesn't augur well for the country.

Democracy is NOT limited to the 2015 or 2023 elections. It's a continuous process.

Those who are not in power today will be in power tommorow, if only we are patient enough.

3) The Yoruba people know what favour them or not.



4) The Almighty reigns in the affairs of men. He gives power to whoever he wants.

ONLY God can authoritatively says whether Tinubu will be president or not.

Ovamboland:
Ghana's reject as your president? you are not welll

oyatz:
The attempts by Igbo people like you especially in Lagos to turn Tinubu to a hate figure create a seige scenerio in the minds of many Yorubas. It will only make more Yorubas to close ranks and rally round behind Tinubu.

HzRF:
Why is that it's Nigerians living abroad that is doing what we at home should be doing

fergie001:

sarrki:
Osinbajo is leader

Obi is the subject

Yankee101:
When I say it's war against igbos people think I'm joking.

No room to file appeals before committing to jail?

Those who can't solve traffic problem should not think of becoming president

It was jubilation galore as residents of the Victoria Island-Oniru axis came out on Wednesday to witness the official flag off of the Victoria Island-Oniru axis road upgrading project by Lagos State Governor, Mr. Babajide Sanwo-Olu.

The project, which is being executed through Public Infrastructure Improvement Partnership (PIIP) arrangement”, was conceived and conceptualised four months ago by Planet Projects at the instance of Access Bank Plc, the major partner.

The aim was to improve the traffic linkage and travel time around the highly commercial axis of Victoria Island. It is believed that traffic congestion being experienced within the project area reduces productivity and discourage the growth of businesses.

The Special Adviser to the Governor on Works, Mrs Aramide Adeoye, in her opening remarks, said the project is significant in a number of ways because it involves private sector participation, stressing that the private sector is seen as a critical partner in the growth and development of the economy of Lagos State.

Araoye said the private sector, which controls about eighty per cent of the State’s Gross Domestic product is crucial in the government’s drive to bridge the infrastructure gap and to also build the smart city of our dream.

She said: “Access Bank has keyed into one of the ways to realize the state’s objective of making Lagos a 21st-century economy by partnering with the State Government in Infrastructural upgrading of Oniru Network of roads under a Public Infrastructure Improvement Partnership (PIIP) arrangement.”

While flagging off the project, Sanwo-Olu said the partnership was another “deliberate action” to solve traffic congestion and relieve Lagos residents of pain.

“We came to this area about 4 months ago at a presentation at Four Points and we told our partners that immediately the rain subsides, we would come back and start with the development of the Oniru into Victoria Island from Lekki.

“I’m happy that within a short time frame, a lot of work has been done. We are here being the 3rd of December, and, with the stoppage of the rains, work can now start immediately.

The Governor said the project will be completed in six months.

Giving details of the construction work, Planet Projects Managing Director, Mr. Biodun Otunola, said the project would lead to the construction of Alaba Oniru Road, Akingbolagbe Road to Muri Okunola Roundabout. He added there would be a regeneration of seven junctions prone to traffic on the axis.

Otunola estimated the total length of the construction work to be 1.8 kilometres, stressing that the construction would be purely concrete to ensure durability. He added that the materials to be used would be sourced locally.

He listed road improvement, junction improvement work, traffic system management measures and classification of roads as 1-way street as part of the proposed solutions in the project.
