I'm tired of this true federalisim myth.

It is a myth that things were better in the first republic when we had true federalisim...it was not , and it can even be argued that creation of states is what led to people having access to more servicies and governance.

The true federalism myth is propagated by mostly Southern intelegentisia who think that the North is 'taking away all their money' and who think that if we had more of the oil money being spent by the South (whether it is the South sourth, old East or the whole South...they don't know...and if you challenge them on that, they will start shouting about how the South west can survive without oil and kaza kaza...lol)...we would suddenly be developed, and the North would instantly become an agric exporter...and we would all live happily ever after.

Rich countries, not Saudi Arabia or the UAE...the really rich rich countries...develop because they use their available resources to make goods and servicices that the world can use (which is how China, Japan, Germany and even the US got rich.). Most of the true federalisim crowd and to be fair most of their opponents, don't want that. They believe that all 200 million or more of us can live on revenue from 2.4 m barrels of crude per day....which isn't even enough for the UAE. They think we should be like Saudi because...we are an oil producer...forgetting that Saudi produces 10m bpd, and has a populaiton of 40 million people and can get away with the appearance of looking rich...until the West develops cheap renewable energy, and then that would be the end of their moneypot. And they think that government should give them the servicies of a first world country....without paying the taxes , tolls, etc because 'we are an oil producing country'

Some even suggest we should go back to the regions...like the regions worked? (There is a reason why we have states.)

I am a neutral when it comes to Nigerian politics, which is why I don't support APC, PDP, even Obi and Kwankwaso....because all of these candidates economic polices amount to 'sharing oil money equitably'...even Obi who talks about being productive...but won't fully commit to removing subsides and deregulating power supply totally...or petroleum (and is even thinking about removing forex restrictions so that at the end the naira would lose its value even more. Don't even talk to me about Atiku or TInubu, who should be retiring self).

The thing is, what Nigeria needs is economic polcies that would earn us more money....not true federalisim, true whatever, going back to regions, etc. We need to be industrial. We need subsides to go on power and petrol so that we can attract more foreign investment and profits in both sectors. Not true federalism...

If this is all Tinubu has to offer, sorry, better not vote for him.

VTJN:
Obi is not just only an unknown product but also a secessionist

UK will never entrust Nigeria to a known secessionist

Arysexy:
Lol, in one hand, Obi support secessionist, in another hand Obi killed secessionist and dumped their body in Ezu river. Make Una chose a stand, so we can meet

VTJN:
wait for the outcome of the election before you begin cry for Biafra again

9jii:
I swear no reasonable Nigerian will consider Ipob master over true Nigeria patriot.

Arysexy:
The outcome is in favour of Obi

Una Biafra and tribal sentiments is stale. Many Nigerians have seen through it.

The only tool of Agbado urchins is tribal and religious bigotry. Nothing else. Una candidate is d worst among d top 4 candidates.


Old dying and criminal minded bigot called Baba Emilokan push and start

We Nigerians have rejected Buhari pro max

We cants reward a failed party like APC with re election

t2luv1:
Screw Federalism or whatever crap they happen to come up with. Give that country electricity first then we then sit down and address the remaining issues. I am with Obi because the man made me an offer I can't refuse "He said to give him 4 years and if the country does not see improvement in the supply of electricity, he won't run again. That is my reference point with him. Tinubu to me is a non-starter.

Corridon:
Nigerians have already rejected Tinubu in favour of Obi.

Kingspin:
You like vote for IBB.
People voted for Buhari too.
I missed Osinbajo and can not miss fit and sound candidates because I want to play politics.

fredoooooo:
I will even vote for Abacha, its my constitutional right .
You can as well vote Osinbajo if that's ylour reality , while others vote for people on the Ballot paper ..
Its not an emotional game but common sense . You xan as well vote for israel Adesanya in your reality, he's a young and fit Nigeria ... or better still victo osinmehen ..
Ko kan aye , life move faster than your feelings and unreality

Kasssandra:
Only way power can improve is by

1.Letting the discos set the price of power...so that they make enough of a profit to pay GENCOS and TCN

2.Everyone pays for power. No exceptions, no complaining about how expensive the bills are.

We have a working GSM system because the government let MTN, M-tel and Econet (and later Glo)..set their prices, and everyone paid the prices...even though people complained long and hard about bad service.....but it meant that funding and investment flowed in...to the point that all our GSM infrastructure was builtwihtout government money.).

If Obi is not campaigning with these two points...power won't improve. All politicans campaign on improving power, yet power does not improve beause the two points are not addressed.

t2luv1:
This is the beauty part I tend to like about Obi's deal he is not trying to overload me with excuses regarding how is going to set out to improve the power supply. All he said is after 4 years. and like I said previously that is my reference point with him. Now if he starts trying to tell me how two lesbians in a devoted relationship got pregnant then I will need to start reevaluating my stands with his campaign.

Pauldollars:
Tinubu is becoming more like President of Yoruba Muslims.
They're the major people giving him support along with Yoruba Muslim celebrities and Motor park workers.

Hardly do you see even Northerners supporting him.
