I can write a text book on hypocrisy of OBI follower's.

There is video of OBI saying "Good leaders don't jump from one party to the other ooo"...even even praised fashola in the video.

If not because seen and nairaland.com moderators are biased in favour of OBI.That video should be in front page now to show that Peter OBI their leader is even worse than DINO

yinchar:
Why is this on the front page?

Every active Nairalander has seen this one way or the other before

The rationale is questionable

Image123:
Two things. One, no, there's no such conviction except accusations and allegations count. All our politicians have that.
Secondly, Nigerian constitution allow ex convicts to contest. What's your point again?

I appreciate your thoughts on the current political landscape, but I must respectfully disagree regarding the potential of the candidates in comparison to Bola Ahmed Tinubu. Tinubu stands out not only for his impressive track record but also for his strong leadership qualities.

As the former governor of Lagos State, Tinubu transformed the state into an economic powerhouse, implementing policies that drove urban development, improved infrastructure, and laid the groundwork for financial autonomy. His ability to manage complex challenges and foster economic growth speaks volumes about his capabilities as a leader.

Unlike others, Tinubu is a unifier, dedicated to bringing people together regardless of their ethnic or political backgrounds. In a time when division seems prevalent, his focus on unity and collaboration is crucial for our nation’s progress. He has a track record of fostering inclusivity and cooperation, which is essential for healing and moving forward together.

The past governance failures you mentioned highlight the importance of strong leadership. Tinubu's commitment to effective governance, economic understanding, and his ability to inspire and unite people position him as a candidate who can truly drive Nigeria towards a brighter future. In contrast to the division and ineffective leadership seen before, we need someone who can lead with vision and purpose, and Tinubu embodies that promise.

Even with all the criticism, he became president.

May Day: Hunger, unemployment, insecurity real— Tinubu

According to him: “The theme demands our collective attention and serves as a stark reminder of the need to create an environment where every worker feels safe, valued, and empowered to contribute to the growth and prosperity of our nation. As your President, I assure you that this administration is committed to creating such an environment for the common good.”

On the economic hardship, he noted that while it is a global phenomenon, its effects on Nigerians are particularly severe.

Tinubu said: “I am aware of the peculiarities of the economic hardship Nigerians face—rising living costs, hunger, insecurity, unemployment, and the loss of livelihoods. These challenges are real and demand definitive solutions, which I am poised to address as your President.

Throwback post of Reno Omokri calling Bola Tinubu a druglord.

infofta:
Everything about Tinubu is fake.
Fake name
Fake certificate
Fake age
Fake state of origin
Fake drug dealer
I won't be surprised if he's not a Nigerian

The first civilian governor of Lagos State, Alhaji Lateef Jakande, on Tuesday, said that the cancellation of the Lagos metroline project in 1985 was a major mistake and disservice to many Nigerians.

Jakande spoke in Lagos during the launch of a book which chronicled his life in politics and journalism.

The book, entitled, ‘Jakande: Leadership in Action’ is written by Dr. Bola Olaosebikan, who told the audience at the event that the All Progressives Congress presidential candidate, Maj. Gen. Muhammadu Buhari (retd.), was not responsible for the cancellation of the project.

Jakande said, “Reflecting on the metroline project, I think it is a major disservice to many Nigerians. Imagine how many people would have benefitted. It would have made life easier and changed the face of transport in Lagos. Whoever cancelled it or gave the advice towards its cancellation didn’t do right.”

The former governor asked Nigerians not to vote for unserious leaders in the coming polls, saying the elections presented Nigerians with a good opportunity that should not be squandered.

Expressing the hope that Nigeria would soon overcome its developmental challenges, Jakande said hope would be actualised faster if credible people emerged as leaders in the next dispensation.

He said, “This book comes at a very auspicious time in Nigeria’s history as we need leaders who can act. We need leaders who would not compromise the standards of good governance. God has blessed this nation the most in Africa, although we have not reached where we should be; with the right leaders, Nigeria would overcome its challenges.”

Nothing is the past! He is not a convicted felon.

Listen to yourself please! A supposed drug lord who was charged and never convicted is a drug lord in a country like the US.

Y’all just like chewing on that gum that lacks merit.
