[color=royalblue]I must really commend Obi's approach to being opposition.

It sincerely beats my expectation. Even politicians in the USA haven't kept it together.

They keep picking on this guy over nothing and everything, yet he doesn't cross that line. Still attacks issues, and keeps the messenger out of it.

Because tell me how everyone called the Olubadan "Brother", and only one person is singled out to be abused.

This has nothing to do with governance, but this is a trait I even wish I can have.[/color]

[color=royalblue]Dangote probably thought it was NUPENG that we will be bantering and addressing with tweets

PENGASSAN no even get time to argue with am.

That's the power of a Union, and any worker who thinks his employer is more of a friend that his Union, is probably ignorant.

BlueRayDick:
Obi is imperfect like every human on this earth , but honestly I admire how he’s kept it together and refused to budge under the immense blocks upon blocks of obstacles the ruling party has thrown at him.

I like how he has conducted himself despite pressure from his own supporters to do “fire for fire “ and how even the ruling party and their underlining as have tried to probe him to lose his cool to commit political seppuku . He don try abeg !

If u look at people like DonJ that are hot blooded supporters that have asked him to throw caution to the wind at the risk of falling prey of the ruling party’s antics and even paid influencers like Reno that have been goading him ; Obi needs to be commended irrespective of his imperfections .

On the Olubadan issue , until Ladoja the new Olubadan comes out to chastise Obi for calling him “my brother “ ; every other politician or paid influencer calling for Obi’s head are just doing their part to find something to drag Obi since the corruption angle has refused to work in their Favour .

izzou:
[color=royalblue]When Reno dragged him yesterday, they showed him the exact same word in that of Tinubu and Atiku. He was mute.

This strategy of attacking someone for anything and everything is toxic.

Simple congratulations, and they have turned it to a lot.[/color]

BlueRayDick:
Dangote will learn in the oil and gas industry .

I have a WhatsApp group screenshot I would’ve loved to share but due to privacy concerns I can’t . I learnt Dangote prohibited unionism in his Cement business, Fertilizer business , Sugar and flour business. He’s been getting away with it for long .

He doesn’t allow workers in all the industries he’s invested in to unionize and he pays them peanuts compared to other industry players . He gets away with it because of his influential business name
and the unemployment issue in naija .

He wants to replicate same in the oil and gas industry but PENGASSAN is saying no because they know the implication of Dangote succeeding . He would give other employers in the sector something to ponder on and the oil and gas sector would become what the manufacturing sector has already become . His only option now is to incite Nigerians against the unions but unfortunately for him PENGASSAN is not NLC u can use politics to drag because NLC registered Labour Party . PENGASSAN will stand on business for their members . Dem deal with Abacha even when he was arresting their top members .

izzou:
[color=royalblue] Exactly what I thought about last night

It's possible that Dangote is seriously fighting Unionism in his refinery, because he knows other of his companies would revolt if it happens.

Nothing dey Tiwa Savage head. She just showed her lack of exposure and general knowledge

Coloured is a race in South Africa

Tiwa Savage: “Where I am from, when something like that happens, The elder will come on behalf of the young one to apologise. Hahaha. If that wasn’t communicated well, on behalf of her, I would like to apologise'

semid4lyfe:
Na only person wey dey follow SA affairs go know their race classification. Tiwa meant well, and I no go too blame her. She dey form african solidarity and elder but South Africans were having none of it.

Ibime:
At her age she suppose know racial classifications for SA na. Her lack of knowledge is inexcusable

semid4lyfe:
You know Black Americans were vexxed by Tyla referring to herself as coloured instead of Black so many Black American influencers called for the boycott of Tyla's album on social media and in their communities.

Tyla's album initially flopped in the early weeks after release before it rallied, and eventually finished average.

I think the blowback Tyla got from Black Americans must have weighed on Tiwa:s mind for her to have issued that apology.

Tiwa is a deeply cultured and respectful person and simply did Omoluabi things by apologizing on behalf of her younger sister but S. Africans who are still stuck in apartheid victimhood and overly sensitive about race are just para-ing for nothing.

Abeg, make dem free Tiwa.

Everyone knows the US had the power to stop the genocide from the very start, yet they did nothing.

BlueRayDick:
Personally I feel Nigeria as a nation ; we have our own internal problems that are bigger than Israel bs Gaza .

In recent times we’ve seen increased killings in the middle belt involving bandits /militia and law enforcement agents .

As recent as this past weekend people were killed by bandits who have been invading different communities in Kwara state . Last week I read the NYSC camp in Kwara state was shut down due to insecurity issues. I’m sure Nigerians will be more excited hearing the government talk about how they will resolve these insecurity issues so life will go back to normal for people from those parts of the country than listening to any talk about Gaza .

The religious and the irreligious die in this country due to insecurity . Make our government focus on making the country safe for its citizens and let countries who don’t even care about Africans like us sort themselves .

[color=royalblue] Jonathan really wants to put a final nail, to his coffin of humiliation in 2027.

I hope he contests.[/color]

He's been moving like he's interested in contesting but I hope he doesn't.

PDP and ADC are courting him cos he's the only Southern candidate who is constitutionally limited to a single four years term and is barred from re-contesting, which guarantees a return of power to the North in 2031. They feel that'd be an easier sell in the North than the promises of Peter Obi and Rotimi Amaechi to do a single term.

Naija now be like Further Maths, and is 100x more difficult than 2015. If GEJ barely passed the Maths exam hin write from 2010 to 2015, then e too sure say hin go flunk this Further Maths exam of today.

Funnily enough. as much as I like him, and supported him in 2015, I do think Peter Obi and PBAT are more suited to be at the helm of affairs now than Jonathan.

Anyways, until hin talk with him mouth say hin go contest, I will continue to believe otherwise. Make hin no ruin the nostalgic respect and fondness that Nigerians have for him.

[color=royalblue]His humiliation will be loud. So loud that for years, he would be the laughing stock of the media for a full tenure

I don't even see what he intends to bring, other than "I can only do one tenure".

Just hearing the rumors, and no story of him debunking it, dey turn my belle[/color]

She dey clout chase and dey do attache by force, how?

BlueRayDick:
Na people like Prof Jerry Gana that have gone hungry since 2015 when Jonathan lost election that are pushing him .

They want access to the cookie jar once more, but they are unwilling to decamp to APC and too proud to support any other candidate. They know Jonathan is a yes-man; the only one that can guarantee them unfettered access to chop wella if he makes it back to Aso rock.

Jonathan will definitely lose scandalously if he decides to contest; APC won't even need to do much work to discredit his ambitions. They will just revisit the various corruption scandals of Jonathan's appointees and take off the leash of their propaganda machinery to go full force at him and his campaign
