Logistics have always been a recurring problem with INEC, it didn't start today. Still doesn't take away the fact that many Nigerians didn't come out to vote, after making noise on social media.

How does inec having logistics issue change the fact that alot of people came out to vote and couldn't.

Isn't the blame supposed to be on inec?
Isn't this even a bigger indictment on inec?

Dude I am the Jerrycan man.

How will i support price of petrol skyrocketing to n500 or more per litre? How will I maintain my 240 litres empire?

Petrol will go as high as 800-900 naira per litre if subsidy is totally removed.

Either Edeoga or Peter mba will win enugu although Edeoga has the upper hand. Frank nweke will take a very distant third. The heat in on here in enugu😁

[color=royalblue]Anambra has an insecurity problem

Soludo met it there and after 2 years it is worse.

Under his administration, a HOA member was killed and beheaded. Till now, no arrests, no conviction

Maybe we should not even be voting anymore since all of them make 1 million kobo a year as IGR

SMH[/color]

The type of insecurity that Anambra is dealing with goes beyond a state govt, its a regional thing, Its the same thing affecting Imo, Ebonyi, Abia and it will be unfair to blame Soludo for this

It will be like blaming a state governor in Yobe for Boko Haram insurgency. Or blaming Makinde for herdsmen killing when its happening all over

BTW tomorrow March 17 will make it 1yr that Soludo was sworn in as Anambra governor

raumdeuter:
What of those whose vice is not beer drinking but just condom bursting, Will the state govt subsidize that as well?

Na true sef. Government should not be seen to be favouring one group over the other.

Just some minutes ago , PDP campaign convoy passed ogige market now and they recieved a very loud boo from people . I don't really know much about other parts of enugu but right here in nsukka, Igbo eze North, Igbo eze south, Igbo etiti, and Isi uzo local government is obidient to the core. The other parts of enugu will be shared by the two contestants. Frank will get some

Burna performing in the UCL final while Potter lifts the trophy . This guy don leave shekpe and "she tell me say" behind.

Exactly why I told you Edeoga has the highest chances among the rest. The only reason why some people are considering Peter mba and Frank nweke is because Edeoga was a part of the ebeano family and only left not long ago.

So, which Governor is not "Mr All-talk-less-action"??

There is no Governor that can be rated above 2/10 in Nigeria and this is because states in Nigeria are not rich enough to take up major roles in driving significant economic development. All they do is just construct 5 km roads, repaint some hospitals and schools. Then, go on an aggressive PR drive to show that they are performing.

The Anambra that you want Soludo to turn to Japan has about 500 million dollars yearly budget, remove salaries, debt servicing, wetin remain?

Jokes on you if you think one Nigeria Governor is better than the other because of aggressive PR campaign.

I agree with you on this totally, We have to realize some truths about our country. We are poor. 500M budget is poor for a state like Anambra
From the 500M by the time we remove recurring expenditure what is left

Nigeria is a poor country. Without money there is little you can implement, Now when you add insecurity to it makes it double difficult

We have low income and a very high disproportionate population. We are more densely populated than most Africa countries

Look at our neighboring countries and their standard of living. We are just fortunate that we have oil, A post oil economy, what will make out standard of living better than Benin Cameroun Togo or Niger Republic. Add our ballooning population to it

The total population of Africa is 1.2bn, Nigeria alone have 1/6 of that depending on what estimate you believe. And what resources will cater for them
https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2022-09-08/angola-tops-nigeria-as-africa-s-biggest-oil-producer-in-august?leadSource=uverify%20wall
According to a report I saw. Angola, Algeria Libya and Nigeria are the top 4 oil producing nations in Africa. Libya has a population of 6M(Like population of Oyo state) Angola has 35M (Population of Lagos + Ogun + Oyo), Algeria has 44M (Like Population of the entire SW)

So if the entire SW enjoys all the Oil of Nigeria, we will be like Algeria or Angola (which aren't exactly better than 3rd world)

All things being perfect Say no corruption, no oil theft everyone well behaved, See the challenge of revenue to population. By the time we now introduce human factors that in everywhere in the world some more in Nigeria than elsewhere. Then we see that problem for what it is

Some depts in a state in US have times 5 the budget of the entire Nigeria

[color=royalblue]We will not change him then.

We will pass laws to keep them, afterall nothing significant will change.

I wonder why you wanted APC out sef. Since nothing changes, why are you now against APC?[/color]

It's not a white and black thing. FG is richer, stronger and more powerful than all 36 states put together. Evidence of this - Naira redesign.

I want APC out at FG level primarily because of low GDP growth recorded from 2015-2022 and Tinubu's mental deterioration.

I don't concern myself with State level politicking because as long as Nigeria states don't become richer, nothing significant will change. But you are free to wait for a Messiah Governor after Soludo to turn Anambra to Japan. Your choice.

[color=royalblue]Your ideology contradicts your choice in this matter

But then, if it makes you believe you're sounding intelligent, abeg ride on.[/color]

[color=royalblue]A sitting governor spent $400,000 on one car.

Do you know what that money can do in the midst of the poor people?

Lol. Nigeria is truly a very poor country[/color]

General notion ke? How many people did y0u interview? Abeg no dey carry beer parl0ur gossip enter dis thread

This thread is first of all about beer parlour gossip, that's why we have monikers.

Secondly, I actually did a sampling, which was a couple of years ago with my course mates. I may not have a verifiable source, but that's my view.

The budget for the entire Nigeria from FG is $45bn

https://www.reuters.com/world/africa/nigerias-senate-approves-2023-budget-holds-back-decision-loan-bonds-swap-2022-12-28/

The budget for the Department of Health in the State of New York is $203bn

https://www.budget.ny.gov/pubs/archive/fy23/ex/agencies/appropdata/HealthDepartmentof.html#:~:text=The%20FY%202023%20Executive%20Budget,for%20remaining%20health%20program%20spending.

For clarity one dept in one state in America has almost 5 times the budget of the entire country

Population of New York state is about 21M that is about the said population of Lagos state while the entire Lagos state budget is $2.5bn

I honestly don't know where Peter Obi is getting his confidence of reclaiming his mandate from but i like it, it would indeed be the 100th wonder of the world knowing how useless and corrupt the Supreme Court Justices are..

Not to sound insensitive, $400K is not really a lot. I know Naija guys here who drive cars of over 250K and they have more than 1 of these cars

We are complaining because the size of the cake is small that's why it touches us more.

[color=royalblue]You are actually sounding insensitive, my oga ( no offence)

400k dolls is approximately 300 million naira

You want to tell me that if a state governor injects 300 million into any sector in his state, it won't make any significant improvement?

300 million naira?

You have joined the group of people who were radically pessimistic. This is unconventional of any Obi voter or supporter.

Throughout the electoral campaign, it was drummed into your ears numerously that this movement was just "noise", a "phase" in Dino's words, "youthful exuberance that will simply fade". But you strode firm, you believed that it was not a phase. You were resilient in that belief that you will part of those who will make a positive change in this country and what happened? Thousands of people like you marched to the polls and today, against all odds, obi has won your very own state, the home of the cronyistic godfatherism. The very seat of his corrupt power was taken away from him and you are most likely represented by an LP representative. Represented by a son of nobody who owed no allegiance to any godfather, who has no debt to be settled behind the scenes.

Your district has been freed from the shackles of establishment corruption and godfather cronyism.
12 other states have also been freed from the corrupt establishment. So why the doubt still??

Why would you decide at this point to give into the cynical pessimism? Your vote has already been powerful and has shaken the system to it's core, why do you think it won't be seen through?

Obidients have already broken all norms in politics, we are about the break the systemic judicial streak of injustice. Keep the faith my dear respected elder brother. Our principal will win!

Its not like these car companies make cars specially for Nigeria. The cost of a Cadillac in US wont be cheaper in Nigeria. By the time you buy a top grade brand new SUV, Ship it to Nigeria and bulletproof it for obvious reasons you will be touching almost $400K

Do you think a governor will drive a non bulletbroof SUV in Nigeria? If you think so ask Ifeanyi Ubah why he is alive to see this day

[color=royalblue]So he was driving Toyota corolla for the past 5 years, and he suddenly remembered bullet proof in 2023?

300 million can only be significant if injected in a community..

Not even a local government nor a state

He wont bring his personal car for official business would he?

Before he can do any project for the people of Kogi. Osun or Delta he has to be alive, I don't know any human being who will not prioritize his own personal safety given the state of security in the country

Even Buhari the friend of the talakawa rides a FG bullerproof car, It wasnt like Buhari was driving a Corolla before office
