[color=royalblue] Everyday I go out, I always remind myself that a lot of Nigerians don't know what they want.

If you look at those defending Dangote, they are mostly people who haven't worked in a corporate space or big firm. They really don't understand what a Union is.

No employer can love you more than your Union.

Suddenly, Dangote has the right to decide because he built his with his money, but Chevron, Shell, 11, Seplat, collected isusu from Nigerians, so they don't have the right.[/color]

Sometimes I wonder if our service chief even do their work at all. From Benue, Niger, Plateau, and now Kwara the story is the same. Now people in Kwara is evacuating, leaving their ancestral land, properties behind. Probably starting a new life in an IDP camp.

The insecurity around that axis is not unconnected to activities of illegal miners there is a scramble for gold. The authorities know what is going on in the region, I got wind of an information that illegal miners set camp in one of the villages in Kogi West area the chiefs are active collaborators.

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

Special Adviser to the President on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga, made these assertions in a statement he signed Monday evening titled, ‘Former President Jonathan is welcome to the race. Nigerians will remember his dismal record in office.’

Onanuga said while the administration “wholeheartedly welcomes” Jonathan to the race, should he decide to run, the former leader would have to contend with both constitutional hurdles and public perception.

He said, “President Jonathan reserves the right to run if he wishes. It is his inalienable right to contest the presidency again.

“But Jonathan will have his date in the court of the land…and will also have his encounter with the people as to whether he has anything new to offer after his disastrous six years, for which they voted him out in 2015.”

You called it

BlueRayDick:
Baba, please stand your ground and insist on having him school either in Lagos or Ogun state or Ibadan at most . Nigeria don cast pass level wey a young adult living in Lagos go dey fantasize about traveling all the way to ABU Zaria , Bayero University Kano , UNN, etc because of the prestige those universities are supposed to have .

Any small thing now ,one can become a victim of kidnap and the whole family will be running from pillar to post to find ransom.

God saved me and my colleagues from a close call on our way to Abuja earlier this month when we got to Kogi. My soul almost left my body.

BlueRayDick:
That is why I avoid road travel over long distance at all cost.

Can't imagine my family running helter skelter to sell any sellable and even borrow just to pay ransom after which nothing is guaranteed whether the kidnappers/bandits/terrorists would keep to their words to release me.

Ellexy:
Anybody looking to travel especially to the Northern and Middle Belt areas need to count the cost. It wasn't funny at all.

[color=royalblue]Our Zeal for political analysis Everytime, is making us not to see the true picture of Nigeria - Seun Kuti, 2025

I wonder how a Soldier who's allowance is 3k a day for staying in the bush would feel, when he sees a government giving money to Bandits (the same people who killed his friends and would kill him) as Peace deal.

Isn't it better he sells Intel to Bandits, and secures his future?

Insecurity will consume this country faster than we think.[/color]

“We told the soldiers to fight against the bănd!ts that āttāck3d us in Oke Ode, but they said they hadn’t been given orders to engage. The soldiers were later withdrawn, and even the gŭns of local hunters were taken away.”

BlueRayDick why are dragging taye currency for his song during olubadan coronation
Who invited were come stage first

BlueRayDick:
That is what happens when they give someone like that such platforms. The organizers should've invited someone as musically versatile and cerebral as Saheed Osupa instead of Taye Currency. Currency is not worthy of the platform and he confirmed it with his yeye performance.

Imagine singing "weyrey la fin wo weyrey " at the coronation of a first class Oba like the Olubadan. Something that even hip-Hop and younger artistes like Olamide , Wizkid, Davido, etc won't do. And I learnt that Currency's son is in the Oyo state House of assembly as chief whip or something like that. Man wey get piking wey don old reach that level come dey sing rubbish for the Coronation ceremony.

[color=royalblue] Another reason may be because of the state they both came from.

Taye is from Oyo state (I'm guessing). Maybe Saheed is not.

So they decided to give it to the Son of the soil. But the organizers should have let him know what was expected.[/color]

Saheed Osupa, who would have done better, is from Oyo state, too.
