How come you're attracting nonsense

You should be more curious about that
We have records of supporting things that are reality, we analyse them earlier as well.

How many years now on this forum that whatever your likes support or analyse, they are always opposite of the reality.

Speaking of nonsense, who do you think might have been doing nonsense supporting, engaging and surrounding self with nonsense?

I am not a Lagosian and I am not in Lagos, but one thing is a "banker" according to Punters, Sheyi can't be Lagos governor, if Tinubu tries that, he has seen Lagosians "finish" and it will stagger his legacy, structure and political dominance in the state.

Let these words be marked.
Tinubu won't even allow his son to contest. Because it will affect the party. And what happened in Kwara against Saraki ( the Oto ge movement might spring up) which is a political suicide for Tinubu and APC in Lagos .

The LCDA scraping is actually a sensible thing to do since LGAs will receive allocations directly from the FG henceforth.

If it is not scrapped, how do the LCDAs get funding? The constitution recognizes only 20 LGAs in Lagos state.
The Lagos State government can find them all.
After the initial joint account of the LG/SG had a semblance of FG funding and a counterpart funding from the SG. No one knows if that SG counterpart funding ever came since for many States it was the SG that did virtually every thing. So now that the LG have been given financial autonomy the SG can release funds to all the LCDAs. In some other States it's called RDAs(Rural Development Areas).

He needed to consult with the governor on an issue like this, that dullard was not in a position to attempt to scrap the LCDA. That’s fir the governor to solve

This narrative is being pushed and supported by the opposition parties to ridicule the president. Seyi Tinubu has no experience of public office and the GAC/mandate group historically selects governorship candidates from within.

Moreover, the Tinubu I know would never allow Seyi anywhere near the position.

That's an administrative thing to do. LCDAs are still under LG so it is easy to sort out financial issues. Also, scrapping it will only create administrative issues in Lagos state most especially with the way LCDAs are made to be closer to the people.

I care less about the ambitious Obasa.

I am looking at what the cleric said about religious tolerance.

This is the state that the IPOB and Obidients say Tinubu controls.
They call all Tinubu supporters "yoruba Muslims"

They say everything is for his muslim brothers.

Yet he is married to a Pastor, not just a Christian.
His state now has had two Christian governors succeeding each other, I head Okunola is his best pick for the next governor and I think the young chap is a Christian.

The Jagaban is blind to religion.
I have said this before and I will continue to say this: The Christians are some of the biggest problems we have in this country.....
Your comparison is confusing and wrong. Your comparison is best suited as northerners vs southerners not Christian vs Muslim. Although Muslims dominate the north and the south, Christians, Northern Christian’s behave the same way as Muslims in regards to honesty. Secondly SW & SW Muslims are not different from their Christian counterparts.

Politicians does not think like that, as soon they receive the dollars bag , any nonsense arrangement is ok with them, politics is business for Nigeria politicians, they don’t care about moral right or wrong or fairness

I don't trust southern Muslims.

It's crystal clear that Lagos state remains a personal estate of Tinubu they had to wait for him to return for the Christmas holiday to get approval to impeach a sitting speaker, Same brand of Godfatherism Wike was trying to introduce in Rivers State. What a shame!!!

He employed the wrong hypeman. That ia why that bishop should be sacked if the Methodist church nigeria is a serious religious organisation.

Tinubu used 8 years as a moslem
Fashola used 8 years as a moslem
Ambode used 4 yrs as a Christian
Sanwo olu will use 8 years

So if going by the over ambitious bishops statement the Christians still have 4 years to spend .

Awon bishop oni jekuje gbogbo
The Bishop actually miscalculated.
Re: The Many 'Sins’ That Cost Former Lagos Speaker, Obasa His Seat by hotseat: 8:15am On Jan 14, 2025
Bashiru Ajayi Obasa, now former speaker of the LSHA, exhibited political naivety in his quest to become the next governor of Lagos State.


Ordinarily, no law bars him from contesting for higher political office but, like Nwanza the bird in Chinue Achebe's "Things Fall Apart", after a heavy meal decided to challenge his "chi" to a wrestling match.


Given his long years in the politically Machiavellian terrain that Lagos State politics is, he should have known better.


The vulture, they say, is a patient bird.


Obasa did not only show his hand too soon but failed to put his underground political machinery in order before taking a plunge.


Now, he will have to sing the nunc dimittis!



Lagos politricks na Obasa mate?

Lol 😂. Narrow perspective. 😂. What you are saying is that because he is no he can't contest anymore as a governor or unless he is a speaker?

Trouble has been brewing ever since long time ago. Even his third term as speaker was a thug of war.

This is just a narrow perspective.

Jokotola Pelumi was impeached to paved way for Mamora.
This is incorrect Jokotola actually replaced Mamora after the later went to the Senate.
