TUCHELseaTeam:
Tilimbu should stop this rubbish.

Why always creating artificial crisis just to destabilize the opposition? You think you're playing politics but this is nothing but a show of shame

Iamsane:
It has to be ignorance or lack of intelligence. Buhari wey do cashless policy on the eve of the election nah him do something to choose his successor?

Kelklein:
You know very little.. you would have known that the successor didn't come by votes but by internal workings of the electoral body (remember the glitch).. largely facilitated by the C-in-C.

immaculatesense:
But your dream land is Lagos.
Abi ur state get those indices wey u spelt out?

If you are proud of ur state. Tell us ur state.
Oya.

Splashme:
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.”

WHO SAYS 4 YEARS IN OFFICE IS NOT ENOUGH FOR MEANINGFUL ACHIEVEMENTS?

IT'S A FACT THAT 90% OF GOVERNORS IN NIGERIA SINCE 1999 WITH REVENUES AT THEIR DISPOSAL CANNOT BOAST OF A QUARTER OF THESE ACHIEVEMENTS EVEN WITHIN THEIR EIGHT YEARS IN OFFICE.

My state is Lagos and ebilokan has replaced the progressive legacy of our forebears with his progreThief master plan.

Do you have this legacy for your own state

(A case study of Nigeria citizens & their elected oppressors).

During the Soviet dictatorship of Joseph stalin. He was a brutal dictator with mind of his own. On one fateful day, stalin came to Politburo meeting with a live chicken. Standing in front of audience, He started to pluck the feathers of the live chicken off one by one. The chicken trembled in pain, blood tricking out of its pores. It gave out grievous cries, but stalin being a cruel dictator continued without remorse plucking the feathers out until the chicken was completely Unclad. After which, he threw the chicken on the ground. The Unclad chicken was staggering in pain. stalin goes into his pocket and from his pockets, he took out some chicken food and started to throw it at the poor & hapless creature. The poor chicken in pain started eating and stalin started walking towards his seat. As he walked away, he kept dropping some feeds on the floor & the chicken followed him and sat feeding from his feet.

Joseph stalin then turned to members of his political party leadership. He said, "This chicken represents the people". "You must disempower them, brutalise them, beat them up, starve them and then leave them". "If you do this, go into your pocket & give them peanuts when they are in that helpless and desperate situation, they will blindly follow you for the rest of their life, worshiping you". "They will think you are a hero forever. They will forget that, you're responsible for their sorrowful situation in the first place." Breath taking, isn't it ?

Now! Take a look at all the people some Nigerians are busy defending on social media. Take a look at those they call their heroes. They are the same people who plunged Nigeria into the situation she is. They are the same people who are responsible for their predicaments. Did you see the numbers of people that throng to Saraki's House during this Sallah period to go collect peanuts? People trooping to Bola Ahmed Tinubu Foundation offices to collect branded One kilo bag of Rice & Noddles. Did you see the number of people of all ages who troop out to welcome Ex- convict James Ibori to South South! Do you see the number of handle mop following obi as if he is a seat? what of the one following dino malaye?

Your guess is as good as mine. Nigerians kill those they should defend and defend those they should kill! Pass to all your contacts & let your Political & Religion Leaders read, understand & digest.

JohnPortar:
A lot of people will blame this on the current administration. Serious question though, why can’t they just register a new political party?

When you think the ship is about to sail. Then comes an heavy ocean current. not even the storm yet. Many things will fall apart.

Kelklein:
Everyone knows whose handiwork is all these right?!

They want to use this guy for what they used Lamidi Apapa to do in LP..

They turned PDP into shadow of itself

Today all the oppositions are in tatters..

How a socalled fighter for democracy detests opposition so much in that democracy beats me..

Even Buhari that many thought would be a hardline despotic civilian President allowed the opposition some breathing space.. some states like Edo and Osun were allowed easy run by the country's electoral body during the elections.. Buhari never used divide-and-rule tactics and repression of opposition as a tactic, okay maybe minimally.. he only did what he had to while choosing his successor, the Nigerian way of course..

But these ones here today have used every tactics in the book and used State Institutions to ensure all forms of opposition are silenced..

Silasworld:
I knew that the current government will come for them.
Why are they afraid of people contesting against them. It's because they know they will loose.

No amount of rigging can save them in 2027. That's why they've decided to go un-oppose.

I sense serious fear in aso rock

shankara7:
Tinubu and the fear of opposition.. That is the number one trait of a dictator..

What happened to this LP chairman?

Is this what ebilokan is doing with the $84 billion subsidy savings and billions of dollars loans - bribe politicians to create enough crisis in opposition parties to help him continue his clueless and corrupt incompetent misgovernance?

fergie001:
Bala did it late.

It is past 14 days which you would have instituted this in Court, you didn't.
Now ADC NEC constituted a 50-man NWC two days ago in the presence of INEC officials well-represented.

Your arguments fall flat and deserve only one outcome, that is to be dismissed in its entirety, and punished with costs.
