1. Tinubu health challenge, what we know is that he went for a knee surgery recently but given his activity and movement in the last 2-3 months meeting delegates, campaigning and travelling, does that seem like a man who has a bigger health challenge than the other candidates? His age has nothing to do with governance, Most of the top countries in the world have presidents who re around 70yrs old. Presidency tests your administration ability which is where Tinubu has excelled as an administrator. He was able to gather the best brains to deliver in Lagos

2. Tinubus corruption allegation. In politics no one is sparkling clean and that includes Tinubu, There is no politician that if we shine enough light on him we wont find where he did some shady things while in govt to benefit or circumvent the law. If Tinubu's corruption claims are so egregious, he has been Nigerias main opposition for several years and no one could pin anything to him. His house is a Mecca where all the foreign ambassadors visit to pay homage. What exactly has he stolen that can be proven and taken to court to prosecute him. Let me know

3. I think Tinubu will handle the economy better than anyone. The only person who can rival Tinubu on economy is Atiku Abubakar. Handling the the economy and even leadership is about delegating the right people into position. A president does not need to be a Nobel prize winner in Economics to fix the economy, its simply appointing right people in the position. This is where Tinubu and Atiku have excelled in the past. Tinubus economic template for Lagos has seen the state become a destination of choice for many Nigerians and non Nigerians

4. The main problem of Nigeria is an ailing economy that does not provide enough employment opportunity which is why youths from every state flood to Lagos to get a means of livelihood, others resort to crime. One example, We have a problem of insecurity which has made over half of the country unlivable there are youths seeking forms to join the military but bottlenecks in admission is frustrating many of them. The process to either join NDA, Police Force or even Short service is as tough as getting a visa. The country is definitely under policed, If govt remove the bottle neck in hiring security personnel. that will on ne hand provide jobs and on the other hand improve security by getting unemployed youths off the street then engaging them in productive nation building ventures

I dont think Obi is the most qualified, Of the 3. I think Tinubu is the most qualified followed by Atiku then Obi

He's the wrongest person to ask this question.
I implore you to leave these people abroad to their devices.
Both of us are here in Nigeria and care very much about our country and the future of our country and our children unborn.

Those abroad have clearly told us that nothing will ever work. That we should stop hoping on Nigeria.

To them we are just numbers on a board. Political numbers for addition and subtraction just for their viewing pleasure and attention. They don't care about us here so just leave them out of it.

Whatever opinion they have doesn't come from a place of care, concern or apprehension but from selfish indulgences and viewing pleasure. It's all a game for them.
Pay no heed to them.

Emmynator:


Calm down, he offered to answer questions on Tinubu's presidency, and I took him up on his offer, I couldn't care less where he is based, as long as he is a Nigerian, I wouldn't want to go into forecasting people's motive for supporting who they support, I would only listen to the arguments they make.
If he was in support of your candidate, would you still hold the same opinion? Or you believe Nigerians in diaspora in general are not valid people to have Nigerian discussions with irrespective of their choice of candidates?

Emmynator:

1. You are right about age having nothing to do with governance, but I think health concerns are valid, as Buhari spent a lot of time out on medical trips, which may have affected his government negatively. On this, maybe we would have to wait till medical reports of the candidates are out (if at all it will be released).
2. A lot of politicians haven't been prosecuted yet and it is true that politicians often have skeletons in their closet, even Peter Obi has a 250M scandal, I wouldn't want to go in talks of big evil and small evil, but I believe Peter Obi is better than Tinubu and Atiku in terms of corruption.
3. I think Tinubu's Lagos state performance is skewed in his favor because Lagos is a mega city. You are dismissing Obi's economic prowess, Obi was special adviser to GEJ on finance (if I am not mistaken), while you are right about delegating, it will serve better if the leader has affinity for that area.
4. You must have seen the video of Tinubu talking about recruiting 50m youths into the army and feeding them with corn I can't respond much on these points, since they are not official campaigns manifestos or ideas coming from Tinubu himself.

Obi is younger, has good track records with Anambra state, has less corruption stains, and is very relatable, yet he ranks third on your list, I am curious to know what your criteria are.

What is the fact? I think Obi will win some SE states and even if he keeps up the momentum might sweep the entire SE, Any Senatorial candidate under LP fit even enjoy out of the Obi movement

Emmynator:

Good evening boss, I am currently neutral and I am yet to pick a candidate, but I am currently leaning towards Obi.
My questions.
1. How do you respond to questions of Tinubu's health challenge?
2. How do you respond to questions of Tinubu's corruption? Do you give a know "thief" a bigger platform to steal?
3. Do you think Tinubu will handle our economy better than Obi (it seems this is Obi's strongest point)?
4. What reforms is Tinubu poise to make that will better the country?

Aside the question of if Obi "will" win or not, do you think Obi is the most qualified of the three candidates?

A man of that status shouldn't be involving himself in such level of crime

He is rich enough to get a legit donor. This crime would be treated like murder sef

So this man took a human being, a child abroad with the intention of harvesting the child's organs? These are the kind of people we have as leaders. It means he was literally prepared to murder a human being.

The only reason this man was caught is because for some strange reason, he opted to do this in the UK. If he had gone for India or the Middle East he would have gotten away clean with murder and spent the next few years trolling the victims survivors

Jodera:
Heaven knows the senator and his wife are lying.

If really they needed it for their sick daughter

1. Why didn't they want to admit her in hospital for the transplant to be done legally

2.. Why transport the boy illegally with fake passports which will possibly include fake documentation

3.. The worrying of it all is that why use an underage?

There's something sinister with their motives and I hope they face the full wrath of the law there
