Uchasa:
Mind you Wike isn't Igbo, he is Ikwerre!
And point of correction, Yorubas are known all over Nigeria as cowards, so nothing can change it!!!

All these because the PDP didn't win Ondo Governorship election?

Blackmann001:
Now am asking u......buhari has a lot of railways network in the north at heart as legacy for himself...y hasn't he finished them all since its so easy like lighting of matches.....he should have finished at least one

Obj muted 2nd Niger bridge...Jonathan actualized it..if I had known you fisiacally. I would have bet some 10k agenist u dt no physical activity took place when Jonathan was in power.....not just going to site ooo..massive construction was going on......my Dept.took an excursion to that site then...

Jonathan was a president for Nigeria.all PDP presidents were..divisive leadership at presidential level started from buhari ur God!..instead of u to condemn him..ur blaming a southern president who built lots of skls in the north for doing it....

U are an evil human.a nepotic,triablistic and an insane human to demand ur president work only at ur region for just his people.....well,una son show us way...naija time to scatter don't reach..

Say only what you know!....u escaped me! I would have won another 10k from ignorant ppl

I can see that you are still a naive youth going by this kind of posts you right.
Learn to be civil when discussing with people especially people you don't know.


It's pointless trying to discuss with certain people who are too emotionally attached to points and can't change their views even in the face of superior arguments.

Bye

BabaO2:
Why the election/success is underreported unlike PDP in Edo and elsewhere?

Because the APC won.




Most of the people complaining bitterly about the APC are actually PDP sympathizers/fans/supporters.

Blackmann001:
Plz go read the deed of the contract again..and see how d funding came about...again.it was muttered by obj and totally conceptualized by Jonathan.this things take years to by....

Just so u know its 6 years now and buhari has not build a railway from start to finish..you tink its easy..?

Building a bridge is totally different from building a railway.

The construction of the 2nd Niger Bridge was regularly discussed in every election year since 2003.

It was only the Engineering drawing that was done during Jonathan's period and no actually physical work. Any reasonable adult knows that you don't need 5 years in Aso-Rock just to achieve Engineering drawing of a Bridge.

Jonathan was NOT committed enough to the construction, if he saw it as his legacy project, he would have constructed it within 4years, especially when fund was available QED.

Many Igbos don't want to agree that Jonathan failed them in this respect and try to give all kinds of funny excuses for him.

SUFFERInSMILIIN:

APC and PDP are the same rubbish if you look at APC they have borrowed more money than any Nigerian government in Nigerian history. You need to understand one thing with the low voter turnout in Presidential elections and state elections for governor no political party at the moment deserves to rule the country. How can you have parties which get less than 20% off the Citizens in the country vote for them and they are now ruling the country

This post didn't answer the question; why didn't Jonathan construct the 2nd Niger Bridge despite being in power for 5 years at a time oil prices were highest and according to you, he had paid the cost of the construction up to 85%?


There's a special reason why I am asking this question repeatedly which his fans/supporters hasn't been able to give reasonable answers;

1) That Bridge connect the SS with the S/E. These two regions are considered marginalized by many people.

2) The two regions were his greatest support zones.

3) The regions make substantial contributions to the economy of this country.
4) Jonathan himself was from the SS region.


I prayed and supported Jonathan to become President in 2011 because he had my sympathy and I expected him to right the wrongs done to the SS and Nigerian true Federalism in the process. I stopped supporting him in 2013.

Blackmann001:
At least u saw wot PDP did...but ur Godfather osibanjo toldnu guys the gospel truth that his govt paid 2billion dollars for the bridge..and PDP did not even take part in the process..and zombie like u swallowed it....

I know all the while its a joint venture bridge by Julius berger,anambra and Delta state..and counterpart funding have been provided IP to 71% as at 2015 march...with GEj leaving less than 15% to pay by the F.G...b4 ur God came in....

What exactly was the reason why the second Niger was not built between 2010-2015 despite the fact that (according to you) just 15% of the cost was left to complete the total cost?

Where in the world do you pay 85% for such major project before the project even start?



Let me tell you the naked truth, most Igbos like Jonathan, not necessarily because he built outstanding infrastructure in their area but because their People benefited from appointments & Government patronage from his Government QED.

Jonathan had golden opportunity to develop the SS &SE but didn't perform well even in his native S/South region other sharing money to militants, politicians and anyone who could mount enough pressure on him.

tamdun:
If they produce the right candidate, am yoruba man but I will not vote for Tinubu, my candidate are osinbajo or fashola

Elections are not won or lost just because of only one factor.

If Tinubu contest under APC and other factors are favourable, he will win hands down.

humblegbolahan:
in my polling unit, it's #3000 per vote by APC

How much did the PDP pay per vote?

benzion72:
This Ilaje and ESE odo na real suffer head people, no light since I know them no good road and you are still

voting for a party you can't see the governor campaign because of bad road chai continue your suffering

Probably because Akeredolu is the only Governor that actually worked on getting them reconnected to the national grid.
They know what they are doing.

junketer:
but you guys are supposed to be the sophisticated ones. Why are you voting a governor for second term when he didn't do anything positive in his first term? Oh I almost forgot, because bullion van messiah told you guys to. Mtcheeww. Sophisticated indeed.

Do you live in Ondo State?

Look at this case: The road that pass in front of the PDP candidate's house was not tarred for 8yrs despite the fact that he was a Commissioner in that Government. Few months after becoming a Governor, it was Akeredolu that deliberately tarred that road.
Do you now see why the people still prefer his administration to that of the PDP

SUFFERInSMILIIN:
What I know APC will win the elections. The main reason is Yoruba people are just like people from the northern parts of Nigeria people vote for somebody which can do nothing for them. In UK and America I have see it with Yoruba people suffering and smiling is what they are good in

Just pack well with your Tribalism.
So things can only get better if and only if PDP win?

dasparrow:
Actually, it is because most Igbos just want a country of their own which they have been requesting for since the 1960's. Their hearts, minds and soul are no longer in Nigeria. They just want out. Hence, anything concerning Nigeria does not interest them. Can't blame them.

Except if the matter involves Tinubu

illicit:
I dey do Ashawo o when konji hold me and galfriend no dey

Better than rape na

Why not just get marry (preferably to a 23 year old Lady).

illicit:
I never see Fulani Ashawo before....

Their culture doesn't encourage such a lifestyle

CSTRR:
There is no opposition to the south east ticket in the pdp.

This is just 2020. There is three more years to ago.

A party that ran with an igbo VP is not afraid of an igbo flagbearer.

That some people in the pdp are considering the north for certain valid reasons does not mean there is opposition to the igbo ticket.

Okay, that is very good.

Nigeria will be better if the democratic space is open to as many Citizens as possible.
Sometimes I am amused with the ways some Southerners seemed afraid that the North should participate in the primaries.

Left to me, the more the merrier. Certain forces will eventually nullify each other.

MrColdsweat:
[s][/s]

Go and call awolowo a hypocrite for joining Gowon in the civil war even after condemning him publicly.


You yarribastards have hypocrisy and treachery in your blood

And you want the same Yarrubastards who your people have continously demonize especially since 2015 to withdraw from the presidential election and vote for your candidate to win?










Hmm. . . the chicken will come home to roost.

CSTRR:
The south east will get the pdp ticket.

The argument is about votes, not even ticket.

Ticket is easy.

We are appealing to the Nigerian people to vote for an equitable distribution of the presidency.

If Peter Obi can get the PDP ticket, he has greater chance to win than Atiku.

CSTRR:
A pdp will be more advantaged by choosing the unstable south west and lose their south east allies and even the south south?

They should gain one and lose everything.

Don't enter politics.

Did I mention any particular party or Geopolitical zone? How did you jump into conclusion that I meant the PDP should chose the S/West?

The strengths and weaknesses of all the parties aren't the same, so asking them to use the same strategies for the election may not be practicable.


By the way, why is the PDP conspicuously silent and even showing opposition to zoning it's ticket to the S/East which according to you is their stable ally?

CSTRR:
No it is not.

Even in your wildest dream, a rotational presidency between the north and the south west alone is not feasible and you know it.

The south west itself was in the wilderness for 16 good years under the pdp.
So obviously, they are not established in the corridors of power.

A 4-2 regional victory against the pdp in 2019, and buhari could only manage 2 million votes differrnce.

Add the middle belt to the pdp calculation, and the votes will change astronomically.

You can vote for apc in your North west states and some North east states but once the middle belt says No, your votes are in vain.
And it is looking like they are seeing the light.

Stop living in delusion.

All these permutations and combinations aren't necessary.


It's better to start promoting your candidates that you think can convince the majority of the delegates of the APC and the PDP that will chose their flag bearers .

If you think Atiku, Tinubu, Kwankwanso, PYO, El-Rufai or Saraki will quit the race for only igbo candidates, then it means you don't know Nigerian politics.

Afamed:
It's simple as Abc. Ask PDP for their presidential ticket. Even in 1999. The Presidential ticket under PDP was zoned to South. That was why Obj and Ekwueme contested the primary at Jos then. Now, if you think think one political party will just zone their ticket to SE, it's high time you faced the reality. It will never happen. It has never happened. Democracy is about competition not emotions

Apart from the sentiments, these people don't know that no political party will want to willingly put itself in disadvantaged positions and be easily defeated.

CSTRR:
That the presidential ticket should go to the south east is not in doubt.

The pdp should have no problem clearing the SS/SE as usual and perform strongly in lagos and possibly ondo.

The North central is very critical.

And i have a feeling they would be more predisposed to a fair and equitable distribution of the presidency.

The pdp need to work on the north central, and it is very feasible.

If the igbo candidate can clear the north central with the same way he is going to clear southern Nigeria, then the presidency is inevitable.

North central is the key. And the game to woo them should start now.

Who is that 'Igbo candidate' who is still nameless without any visible political structure 30 months to the election and hope to defeat seasoned ,monied and experienced political Titans like Atiku or Kwankwanso for the PDP ticket, let alone defeat the APC in 2023?

HAccord:
Anybody saying 'Zone to the South' without being specific by saying 'SouthEast' is only being dubiously hypocritical.

But majority of the S/East politicians are shying away from the race but prefer to support ATIKU2023 project.

Rugaria:
2023 is Nigerias date with destiny. The country will either choose the path of inclusiveness and save whatever that is left of her unity or the path of segregation and watch the nation implode slowly. Nobody will fight to remove white colonialism only to accept a very funny attempt by two local groups to hyjack power at the detriment of others.. The only path for survival left for Nigeria is the path of inclusiveness.. Everybody is waiting for Buhari and his partisan hacks to make that foolish move and start off an avalanche of reactions that will ultimately reset brains across board politically in this country.

But Jubrin Al-Sudani is going in 2023, so he and his partisan hacks can't make any move.

NnadyAutos:
If Obaseki had won the election under the platform of APC, no body will accuse him of forging certificate.

The PDP back then actually petitioned against Obaseki's qualifications but the Court ruled that the filing was done outside the stipulated time frame.

Ojiofor:
FFK is not a man of integrity and can go to any lenght to rubbish his former wife to protect his rotten image.

What was the motive of the wife recording and releasing that video:- to gain undue public sympathy and appear as the 'victim'

0kinographix:
Money can’t buy peace!!!

You’all always talking about hustle hustle hustle, what do you have to say about this.

This life is just a mystery

This life no balance at all.

Both the rich and the poor families have their own problems.

koyyes:
Assuming your lies were true, what are you doing married to someone younger than your first daughter? You think you both are compatible sexually? Why can't you marry and remain with your 1st wife with grace and humility.

Old fool.

This is not an excuse for adultery sir.
Was the lady not aware she is younger than his first daughter before agreeing to marry him because of his money, only to start fvcking with other men?

kcnwaigbo:
Did Zulum tell anyone he is not going for another term as Governor.All this Zulum VP stuff is very funny.Anyway the presidency is returning to the north in 2023 so all this projection does not really matter

I guess you are the man in charge of the Presidency to determine where you will return it to?

Zazzzu:
don't u guys think its time we try an igbo president.

Tell that to National Governor of the PDP, Nyesome Wike.

irepnaija4eva:
The presidency was micro zoned to the southwest 1999..
The southwest betrayed the south south 2015 with a hidden agender to become president 2023..
If the south west can't support the southeast, or better still the south south my brother, let the North continue..


But all the same,, am in for a better president irrespective of any geographic zone his from..

Bros, stop this your lies.

There was nothing like microzoning of the Presidency in 1999 as Dr Alex Ekwueme, Jim Nwobodo, Philip Asiodu, Gharam-Douglas and Don Etiebet spent their time, energy and money to campaign accross the length and breadth of Nigeria requesting PDP heavyweights in each State to support their candidacies.
They were however defeated at 1999 the PDP Jos Convention .

The S/West is not your problem. Go and negotiate with the PDP to support your aspiration.


You are free to vote for any Northerners but stop this your childish blackmail of the S/West.

Ifesinachi22:
Just listen to yourself.

Fulanis are settlers and they became the king of the most important town in the state (Ilorin). Continue enslaving yourselves. A Yoruba Town with a Fulani king, only in Ilorin. To even remember the same north don't even see Yorubas as serious Muslims makes me sick

What exactly is your problem sir?
Why are you crying more than the bereaved?

There are so many towns/kingdoms with Traditional rulers that are not of Indigenous origins e.g

1) Spain and the ruling Bourbon Royal dynasty which is French origin
2) England/UK with the ruling Windsor Family (original name= Saxe-Coba Bortha) which is German origin.
3) Bini Kingdom with the reigning Oronmiyan which is of Ife origin.
4) Onitsha Kingdom with the reigning Ezechima dynasty originating from Bini
5) Kano, Zauzzau, Katsina ,Hadeiji and Daura' Emirates with the reigning dynasties being of Fulanis descent. The same things happened in Bida and Ilorin.

All these may not pose anything for these rulers if their subjects aren't complaining.
So why is it your problems sir?

No, Gov Obaseki used his grandfather's money to fund his re-election.
The grandfather was the richest man in Bini during the Independence celebration in 1960.
