Throwback:
Lagos na inspiration before naa.

Tinubu really pioneered a lot, rather than rest on his oars, he also set to restructure Lagos State with the additional local governments that would eventually come to pass.

Rozross:
Expect anything in politics, no permanent friends and enemy in politics.

Tochi3:
Tinubu acheived practically nothing in Lagos..

The job was done by Jakande, Buba Marwa, fashole the rocket science Minister, Ambode, other Military administrators of Lagos , FG and Nigerians. .

Only a political statement from OBJ when they were trying to settle their differences then....

That man Tinubu did nothing except increasing tax for his bullion vans and empowering miscreants

CheapHomes1:
What then does this mean:

When you can’t break someone you end up loving them, this is exactly what happened between obasanjo and big daddy tinubu

candidtalk:
Bro, we are not fooled by the noise of "one watch for 30 years" garbage.

If we had regional Governance today it is Yorubas that will be 100% confident and happy to accept Tinubu our regional Premier.

The SE and North will hesitate going with "Him Tu Lie" Obi and Dubai candidate Atiku because both are empty.

It is 'one Nigeria' giving the SE and North 'ginger'. On their own, and having to choose carefully or face a bleak future without recourse to 'one Nigeria', both region will reject Obi and Atiku to beg SW to 'lend' them Tinubu.

MANDIPUTIN:
Aminu Tambuwal, now Sokoto State governor, won the seat, against the preferred pick of his party, Mrs Mulikat Adeola Akande, from the South-West. Defunct Action Congress of Nigeria, then a fledging opposition, which had Akande and his soulmate, former Lagos State governor, Senator Bola Tinubu, as front- line leaders, openly asked its elected members of the House of Representatives, mostly from the South-West, to work against their region and back Tambuwal from North-West.

The opposition party’s support carried Tambuwal through the contest against Akande, then ruling party’s favourite for the speakership seat.

In his book, Chief Akande revealed that former president then as incumbent, personally reached out to Tinubu, who is now believed to be nursing presidential aspiration in 2023 and himself, but couldn’t convince them.

He wrote, “President Jonathan, immediately after the meeting (with political parties), called Bola Tinubu aside into a lobby to broach the matter of ACN support for a choice of who would become the Speaker of the House of Representatives.

“That same day, President[b] Jonathan talked to me on phone about the same matter. He disclosed that PDP had zoned the position to the South-West[/b] but that only one Muraina and another Mulika won elections on PDP ticket from the zone into the House of Representatives.

“I quickly reminded him that, as at (sic) that date in the United States of America, while the Democrats produced the Senate President, the Republicans (the opposition) produced the Speaker of the House of Representatives. I boasted that ACN was capable of suggesting to him ten names of members from the South West from among whom to choose if PDP would be magnanimous enough to practice democracy the way it was being practised in the USA, from where we imported our presidential system.

“He seemed pissed off and stopped the conversation,” he said.

In the era being referenced by the former national chairman of the defunct opposition party, the controlling party in each of the chambers of the Congress in the United States was in the majority, which wasn’t the case with ACN when the Ila-born politician was making his claim.

Rozross:
Obasanjo initially saw big daddy as a threat and an enemy, he went further to stop sending allocation to Lagos state during his term but big daddy ran Lagos unhindered without owing Lagos workers a dime. The same obasanjo acknowledged him in his book and he recently stylishly endorsed him. So you can see there’s no permanent friend or enemy in politics

Everything about Tinubu is throwback. Urchins just want to continue dwelling in the past.
We can as well invite Okocha back into Super Eagles midfield.

The sick old bat is simply far past his prime, & should go & enjoy the twilight of his life with his grandkids.

Lagos is rich, you can't use Lagos to determine a performer,

the bill creates a council to be chaired by chairman to be appointed by the president
the council shall have the power to take Your land anywhere the land is located in the country and they pay you composition,
your land shall be assigned to herdsman use for grazing purpose.

they shall bring cow to the land and you shall lose the land permanently to those Fulani cattleman.
if you feel That's the council was not right to take your land you can go to court but before you go to court you must first of all notify the federal authorities general of your intention to sue the council.

about from notifying. you must get the concept of the authorities federal before you can sue.
if the authorities general refuses to give his concept to the suit
you have lost your land forever to the herdsman.
this law when passed shall apply to the whole country. it means that your land in the village or anywhere is not safe.. the national grazing reserve council would have the power to take away Your land from you anytime they want as compensation.
even when you don't want to sell..
for you to get compensation you must have documents ownership
both southwest, South south, and southeast.

we must rise up and reject this bill
NATIONAL ASSEMBLY MEMBERS from passing that bill into law
this bill is a deliberate attempt to take our land and hand over to
Fulani.... ( UTHMAN DON FODIO and other NORTHERN LEADERS to take over part of Nigeria

this law will destroy NIGERIA ALL over the world...

there's no country where the land of the citizen are composed acquired and given to others.
this is evil and design to favor the Fulanis

we must Reese's it.
to save Nigeria and to protect our official generation

That was b4 he decided to become lagos landlord.

Obasanjo really dealt with him.

When will tinubu appreciate Afenifere that made him governor??

Babasessy:
The Awolowo rebirth in the Southwest has inspired gongs, songs and rhetoric of sorts. But they have missed one point.

It occurred to me in Abeokuta last week amidst the big crowds and euphoria of the swearing-in of Senator Ibikunle Amosun as governor. In all the states from Lagos to Edo, where Awo has witnessed ideological resurgence, hardly a single family member has played a role.

So we have an Awo family without an Awo. That is an irony. But history overwhelms us with this sort of twist. Obafemi Awolowo toiled for his reputation. His roots were lowly, he toiled to school both home and abroad, launched into careers in law, business, journalism and eventually politics. He carved a niche for himself, and became the first methodical and charismatic leftist in our history.  Other leftists abounded but they did not inspire comparable drama and following.

He faced tribulations, went to jail, failed in elections, won a few, but he imprinted his ideas and legacy in the country, and no single mortal has beaten him in the history of this country. His greatest achievement was in the area of ideas, and that was how he fashioned a family. Most families are born of biology but his issued from ideology. That family suffered with him.

In a spoof of Jesus Christ, these were the men who followed him in his teachings, and endured with him in his temptations. So he formed a kingdom for them in the Southwest, in the old Western Region, presiding over his projects, his legacies and people.

In all of these, the family he had was not his flesh and blood. In another spoof of Christ, who were his family anyway? Those who were with him must be counted as his family. So, I combed in the ambience of Babatunde Raji Fashola (SAN), and I found none. I went to Ogun, I frisked the crowd under Amosun’s bower, hardly any. Around Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola in Osun, I could not lay a finger. With Governor Kayode Fayemi in Ekiti, where are the forbears of Awo? Yet, I can hear the chants of Awo. Hardly in any of the inaugural speeches or any of their other public intervention would you miss the philtre and filter of Awo from these gentlemen. To parody Novelist Joseph Conrad, they are the sparks from Awo’s sacred fire, the messengers of the might within the man.

Already all of them are pursuing the legacy ideas of Awo: free education, free health services, infrastructural development, urban renewal and economic engineering.

Lagos has posted itself as the John the Baptist. The others are putting up valiant efforts, and the world of course is watching to see how well they will perform. It will call for great work, resourcefulness and cooperation. They are the real Awoists, and Awo was a man of rigour and vigour.

The Awo son that many expected to take after the father was Olusegun, who unfortunately died in a car crash. We shall never know if he could have pulled it off.  But the others have not shown much of the paterfamilias’ brio and depth. In the past decade, under this republic, they have blended with the wrong crowd. Even H.I.D, hobnobbed with Alao-Akala, who brought illiteracy to governance; with Oyinlola who turned the grace of office into a hell-hole of despots; with Daniel who could not arrest his quick fall into megalomania.

I wrote once that this woman whom Awo once described as the jewel of inestimable value has lost value to his cause. If he came back to life, he would have committed the extraordinary act of divorce after death. Even his newspaper, The Tribune, has so stumbled and fallen that it swims in Awo’s vomit.

Mediocrity is the trademark of agbadorians

I know you will too young to know when same Obasanjo sent Fayose out of the government House in Ekiti

Viraltrends123:
We can't deny this man worked hard to make good things happen to Lagos.

Seeing other candidates talk about having 2 shoes, one watch and their followers hails them, an acclaimed billionaire politician telling you he has just two shoes, and one watch just to get to your head, just like Buhari telling us he has just one house in Nigeria, which is in Daura. Is that what we should be looking at.
