Buhari pushing raw Niger Delta oil money to his people in Kano codedly

Developing Niger Republic bordering states with Niger Delta oil money n other southern resources

The flyovers in Kano, just like the fly overs in Rivers and the Anambra Airport are done by the State Government and not Buhari

Truthisunique:
Paid zombie already masturbating, we already know why nairaland is like this you this fake Yoruba Muslim

I think all Nigerians should be happy about this positive news, why are you embittered?

Hoelujohn:
Agreed. Let me ask you a question. If there are like 5 million votes to fight for in SE and SS, how many votes do u think GEJ will get under APC?
Secondly what will also happen if Tinubu decamp to PDP and get the ticket. Will Tinubu also defeat him

You are very funny, how can Tinubu (who has never decamped to another party) suddenly decamp to the PDP on the eve of a presidential election and be dashed the the PDP ticket?

Odidigboigbo:
I doubt if SS or SE will support GEJ candidature in APC. These zones, their support is beyond individual.

Will these zones then support PDP's Tambuwal-Mimiko ticket?

I am Yoruba and my family used to practice occultism, before they became true Christians and that is because there is a mix of traditional Yoruba religion mixed with Christianity and Muslim religions. At one point in time majority of families have engaged in one form of occultism knowingly or unknowingly.

There's nothing bad in our African Traditional Religion.

All religions undergoes metamorphosis with the passage of time.

BOOZELEE:
Na only God know im pipu.

He knows those he called and those that called themselves.

But God can and actually uses anybody in DIFFERENT forms. Our sinful nature may however prevent us from hearing him well.

aryzgreat:
While SW Governors under southern Governors forum are canvassing for rotation and return of Presidency to South, they are selfishly not considering same rotation in the south, having had a shot under OBJ and now VP Osibanjo, they are projecting Tinubu another SWener not minding that they ganged with North to remove a SS brother from Power. That's hypocrisy, greed and wickedness

If Southern Governors are not micro-zoning to either SS or SE, let North remain with power.

Rather than SW, let it remain in the North. Until they understand equity

Instead of complaining about the SWest projecting Tinubu or anybody, start projecting Anyim Pius Anyim for president. Atiku, Bala Mohammed or Tambuwal aren't better than him.

AntonVince:
False.
This deliberate misinformation has to stop.
The NE and NW never at any time voted GEJ.

The South and NC gave Jonathan victory in 2011.
Buhari won in Bauchi, Borno, Gombe, Jigawa, Kaduna, Kano, Katsina, Kebbi, Niger, Osun, Sokoto, Yobe and Zamfara states.

In 2011, Ribadu/ACN won in Osun and NOT Buhari.

ScamHunter:
I'm glad that you know that we Igbo are de-marketing your drug lord. You know that we are having issues with substance abuse in Igbo land. It would be calamitous to support the Chicago bullion van drug lord. I know you guys are not worried about the drug issues in Yorubaland which has been rated as the region with the highest cases of drug addiction. So we are not selling Tinubu a gnat. He can only be president of Oduduwa. In fact, no Yoruba man would smell Aso rock in 2023. If you wouldn't back SE or SS that you betrayed, let Fulani continue and make your land Ilorin. The south would be better off knowing that you guys are perpetual betrayals.

This is most laughable and stinks of super frustration.


Start marketing your candidate, your jealousy induced bring-him-down antics will not put an igbo man in Aso-rock.

t6:
I appreciate your analysis. I am sure the role played during end SARS protest will bring him down too...

You should be thinking of bringing Anyim Pius Anyim up instead of planning to bring anybody down.

Burruchaga71:
You forgot to add that the Great Igbos would never allow Tinubu to rule over them even if he win. What boko boy is doing to Buhari will be a child's play to compared to what IPOB will do to make his government ungoverable

And you will be proud to make Igboland like what Boko Haram turned their homelands into, just because you hate Tinubu?

Collinsaik:
dont igbo deserve a stint at the presidency like other major ethnic groups in the country even if for just a single term of four years ?

we alk knw that ndigbo are disadvantaged in the nigeria political system of today and cannot help themselves to the presidency unless special concessions are intentionally made by all others to help help them to it in the spirit of brotherliness for the sake of unity, equity and peace..

Igbos deserve to be president because they are Nigerians. However they have to contest, seek support from different power brokers in different parts of the country.

Anyim Pius Anyim understands this better than you.

aribisala0:
That is like saying World Football will not reach its potential tlll all countries win the World Cup
All citizens have equal rights to attain the highest office but all cannot get it simply because there are dozens of ethnicities in Nigeria
Do Ibos shut anyone out of Spare parts business?
Do Fulani shut anyone out of cow business?

Ibos, are not the only ones that have not tasted the presidency
Add to that list
Hausa, Idoma,Tiv Edo, Efik and many others
Your sentimental lamentation is not matched by reality
Who is "shutting out" Ibos? No one but Ibos

You have equal rights but no one is going to gift you the presidency .
You have to persuade others to vote for you

You don't understand my point sir.

In the first paragraph, I urge younger generation of Igbo politicians to always participate in the presidential race , that with time whatever prejudice against igbo presidency will fizzle out.


My second paragraph was did NOT mean that presidency should be handed over to the Igbos.
I only emphasis that if people from different parts of Nigeria rule the country, what is over looked by one Region may be promoted by one Region and this will help to fasten development.


If a significant part of Nigeria (irrespective of who they are) doesn't participate in the leadership roles, it's a great drawback for the country.

adamsmith914:
No doubt, I know APC will not be stupid to lose power over a selfish man’s ambition, unless they are ready to relinquish Federal power to pdp? Which positively you know for sure that they aren’t quite ready after just 8 years.

President Buhari has to secure his legacy, let Bola Tinubu play his last cards, his time is up, after 2023 election, a new President & political leader of the South West has emerged.

By limiting the discussion about the 2023 presidential election to Tinubu, you aren't looking at the bigger picture.

What we should be clamouring for is free and fair election. Whoever emerges will lead to certain advantages for the country.

adamsmith914:
Muslim/Muslim ticket can never fly in Nigeria dead on arrival, na the late Fela Kuti give us the scope.

Christian Association of Nigeria will never accept it. Bola Ahmed Tinubu aka Jagaban will never be President of Nigeria, Osinbajo is your best bet.

Where did you see Muslim-muslim ticket? Why putting the cart before the horse?


Has any Muslim won the presidential Primaries and picks a Muslim running mate? Even at that, we should be discarding the religions of the candidates and focus on more important issues.




By the way, when is it going to be time for Traditionalists to get to power? When will the Atheists become president or vice-president?

Asgard73:
K

Next

The biggest threat to igbo president is the core North, however if younger igbo politicians continue to participate in the presidential race, it will dilute the unnecessary prejudice against Igbo presidency.


Nigeria can't attain her full potentials if some parts of the country are shut out of the leadership roles and all citizens don't have equal rights to hold the highest office in the land.

adamsmith914:
Who the Gods want to destroy they first make mad, Jagaban should have taken q of what happened to MKO Abiola?

But like I said, who the Gods want to destroy they first make mad.

History is known to repeat itself, Bola Tinubu has seen the signs, he knows his time is up, let him try & grab the last straw to stay afloat politically.

All these are just too immature.


Tinubu has the right to contest. Whether he wins or not is his personal business. There can only be one winner at a time

Reality3080:
who do u think we should vote instead of Tinubu?

They want you to vote for thiefAtiku

Collinsaik:
Nigeria must do the needful by handing over presidency to ndigbo if they want to lay this agitation to rest once and for all. a stich in time saves nine. my two cent

This threat and blackmail can NOT work sir, it will only cause avoidable violence in Igboland.

Successfulben:
Religion is scam.
I have always said there is no God anywhere. Smoke some weed and live ur life to the fullest cos tomorrow mother earth may demand for ur soul. Just be nice to people. Shikena

And who created and in charge of mother Earth?

jericco1:
After papa will say he didn't see it coming
Can't you advise Tinubu to step down

Omo all these pastors sef
After you'll tell people to pray when so many things are avoidable

Why will pastor adivise him to step down?


We should build great democratic systems and culture that can allow anybody contest while the best emerge as the winner.

Asgard73:
Tinubu market no gree sell for his Kano again?

Ganduje

Shekarau

Mohammed

Yet e no gree enter market

Now Yoruba Dey celebrate 2500 votes .. wahala Dey..

Buhari go hide face.. Walai

Una need to Kano to understand the stupidity of this particular propaganda

This is incoherent sir.


Start organizing campaigns for your preferred candidate, the Primaries is just about 10 months away

post=109015943:
He manipulated the system to favour his people, that's Nigeria for you, please is the VAT in Yoruba land being generated only by your tribe , major importers in Anambra and Abia use Lagos ports, major travellers from the East are using Lagos airport, majority of the markets are controlled by Igbos in Lagos, all the bank head offices use by all Nigerians are located in Lagos, transportation sector both land and air are dominated by Igbos, same with other sectors.

You don't seem to understand this VAT issues.

Most of the sectors you listed pay other forms of taxes but VATs are taxes paid by people consuming certain items.

Tribes are irrelevant to payment

History555:
Vedaxcool is not even a northerner. Its a yoruba man being spokesman for the north. Only yoruba on nairaland acts as spokesman for the north, they will fight north battles, abuse on their behalf, tell u how good north is. Only yorubas. Arewa, bosstrevor, kano1stson are not speaking out. Its a yoruba man that decides to be a slave spokesman

Discussions and enlightments about VATs is more of economic matters than regional/tribal matters.

Economic minded persons understand this well.

Blakjewelry:
Truth be told apart from Lagos I don't know how many states could beat Anambra when it comes to industries

But that is NOT what VAT measures.

VATs measure the taxes paid by consumers of certain items.

post=109006231:
Population has nothing to do with VAT, VAT is a consumption tax paid on all goods and services provided in or imported into Nigeria. VAT, which is currently charged at the rate of 7.5% is payable by individuals, companies, and government agencies. Certain goods and services including medical and pharmaceutical products, medical services basic food items, books and educational materials, exports e.t.c.

VATs is collected at the point of consumption, the more the population consuming VATable item, the more the VATs collected.

For instance, the higher the number of people paying NEPA bills and consuming soft drinks in a State,the higher the VATs collected in that State.

post=109021899:
IJEBU garri Anambra has 217 commercial bank branches Kano 176 branches, you can actually download from CBN site

Try to check the first column of the table.

The last column you are qouting is even a data from the third quarter of 2009, which is 13 years ago!


Bank branches changes with time and it's unrelated to the collection of VATs, even at that one bank branch in one place may have more than the entire customers of 3 branches elsewhere.

post=109005671:
Empty brain the VAT you guys cooked, VAT is collected by FIRS, VAT from the 6 breweries in Southeast east top all in Kano

Isn't it ironic that Tribalists like you who love to condemn any Statistics released by Nigerian agencies that doesn't favour them, also try to use other Statistics released by the same Nigerian agencies that favour them to buttress their points?


In one breath, you are disputing the statistics released by the NBS because you said that the organization is biased against you,but you are also relying on other Statistics (that favour you) released by the same NBS to prove your point.

post=109005201:
Anambra alone is more industrialized than Kano with bigger economy, host more commercial bank branches than Kano

Tribalism mix well with politics but not so well with Economics.


Bank branches and GDP are different measures which may not necessarily translate into collection of VATs.

The population play important role in the size of VATs which is a form of consumption tax.

In the table you yourself posted, Anambra has 121 bank branches while Kano has 130 branches but you still said that Anambra has more bank branches that Kano.

Penguin2:
Definitely, nobody can remove the God factor.

But God in his infinite wisdom, goodness and mercy, can’t destiny Tinubu to rule Nigeria.

Dan 4:17=> The Almighty rules in the affairs of men and gives power to whoever he wants

Omodua:
OK. If you say so.
Mind you,he is terminally sick and this should be his main concerns than presidential ambition. Still remember Musa Yar'Aduah who traded off his health for political expediency? Let's learn from people's mistakes!

There are so many other presidential aspirants, so the voters have options of choosing the right candidate.


What we need is strong democratic institutions, we need not focus on individuals.

Tinubu is not connected to those States, so nobody is interested .
