IamPatriotic:
I thought Tinubu is finished , how can an irrelevant Tinubu have followers? yeye wailer like you.

philips70:
I agree with you. It's a disease across board nowadays. Younger generation seems to be growing into it too.

@anonimi,

The ingrish "OWNS" is not used for a 1st or 2nd person.

Kindly drop it not cos it bothers anyone but it mocks the person who made that gif...

Insults miss their mark & reflects back on the person passing it when it has error (s)..

In this case, it is not the message...

TonyeBarcanista:
Statements like the emboldened is a clear sign that the SGF isn't fit for the job. What was he trying to achieve by inserting religious sentiment? I'm highly disappointed in these APC people.

[size=16pt]now u knw why south east failed 2 get post of SGF[/size]

TonyeBarcanista:
I'm in FCT...

Ayatullah:

THIS SGF MAY NOT LAST!
When Christians gather for their Testimony or Thanksgiving they allow Satan to guide them to unnecessary speeches.

The SGF has just exposed himself to ridicule by allowing us to know he is Tinubu's/Akande candidate. He has also rubbished Northerners, Buhari inclusive.

This SGF may not last.

philips70:
Hmmmmmm, you are working very hard. Metuh's job is on the line I guess.

I don't understand Ambode of a guy. He was supposed to be Governor of Lagos state and not Governor of Tinubu state. He should show respect for the office he occupies. I don't see why a Governor of a state will be representing an unelected official in events. Tinubu can as well send a party Chieftain or one of government's appointees to represent him.

TonyeBarcanista:
Metuh's tenure is meant to end next March...

Maybe I should consider Lai's job

ibedun:
Go back to your home state. This is our state and our politicians (elected and godfathers) have our full support.

TonyeBarcanista:
It's not about Ambode, it's about the office of Lagos state Governor.

Beside, I admire Tinubu's political sagacity!

TonyeBarcanista:
Lagos is my home as a bonafide yorubaman from Okrika, Rivers state

On a serious note, Lagos has always been a second home to all non-indigens that are law abiding and exhibit the spirit of Lagos! It is a state that not only welcome people with only arms, but also give them a sense of belonging.

SECRETARY to the Government of the Federation, SGF, Babachir David Lawal, yesterday, said the National Leader of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, and Chief Bisi Akande made it possible for him to emerge as a member of President Muhammadu Buhari’s cabinet.

Speaking at a thanksgiving service in his honour, the SGF said the two leaders of the APC played a prominent in his emergence, saying it is fundamentally important for Nigerians to know that goodness is not restricted to tribe, religion or political party.

“My wife has not met Bisi Akande, she has not met Asiwaju, she has not met Buhari, yet we have been with him. But, it is fundamentally important for Nigerians to know that goodness is not restricted to tribe, religion or political party”, he said.

“My opinion is that if you have no investment in human beings and you just invest in yourself, like most politicians present in this church do, you will end up as nothing. If you look at just your community for friendship, or you look at your religion or in the same church with you for friendship, I doubt if you will go any where.

“I am Secretary to the Government today, because those people that I mentioned were the very first to put the idea in the mind of the President. They were the ones that made it possible.

“Because if it has been left to northerners, it is doubtful if they will take a Christian man to make Secretary to the Government of the Federation”.
“But these friends know me, they know that I am not ambitious. I just want to eat today and tomorrow I will find my way. By the grace of God, I am today the Secretary to the Government of the Federation, something I did not look for, people say it is hard work and dedication. It is not true, it is just by the grace of God that the President will just pick you and say this is your position”.

“I never looked for it and I never expected it. I started getting hints to this job just about two to three days to it, and I thought it was a very big joke. Then I used to call it Timipre Silva project or Baba Akande project, when they mentioned that they heard story about it”.

“Last year, if I was told that I will have an occasion where one single governor will attend, I will not believe it, but here we are today, it is the grace of God that has put all of us where we are today. Governors should know that”.

Tinubu lauds appointment

In his speeach at the occasion, Tinubu described the SGF’s appointment as a step in the right direction, expressing optimism that he would bring his wealth of experience to bear in the office.
Tinubu extolled Lawal’s qualities, saying that while some of his contemporaries have succumbed to the temptation of illicit wealth and the abuses of power and privilege, he (Lawal) has remained faithful to the course of the nation.

Alluding to the fact that his appointment was a reward for hard work and selfless service, he said Lawal’s eye for detail and due process makes him the best man for the job.

Tinubu, represented at the event by Lagos State governor, Mr Akinwunmi Ambode, said, “If you are looking for a man who is diligent in his work with a keen eye for details and correct process, there is none better than Babachir Lawal”.

“He knows this nation and understands its complexities, from the intricacies of our federal bureaucracy to the diversity of our social fabric to the, multiple dimensions of our political dynamics.
“He is a man well-tailored to fit his position in today’s Nigeria where we find ourselves in a situation not meant for the faint hearted. A situation that requires grit, guts and wisdom. These attributes, Lawal has in abundance”.

Nooo, I believe Chris Finebone go don first you submit CV there. Remain for PDP and grab that one, Metuh belle don big reach.

PassingShot:
I still find it absurd that Amode, a governor continues to represent Tinubu, a party leader.

Don't get me wrong, I know that Tinubu commands huge respect within APC and that he also made Ambode the governor, BUT it sounds so weird that the Lagos state governor has to represent him at any occasion. The govnr should be above this kind of errands which make him appear like a puppet.

barcaboi:
no be Lai na Laye u go see.....face ur dream of Metuh Job maybe u'll get a faction of recognition in PDP

TonyeBarcanista:
Bros, make I take Finebone job then... Oya begin lobby 4 me

philips70:
The only person I know in APC is my cousin who incidentally is the Delta state chairman and a pastor in PH. Ironically, that guy lies more than 7 demons put together. I just pity Delta APC because of that man and only pray Delta state should not taste APC while he is still ruminating with them.

TonyeBarcanista:
Oga make una begin lobby for me jare

TonyeBarcanista:
We have so-many Lai Muhammed proteges in APC sha

ZeezaRapture:
There is a HUGE difference between Fashola and Ambode. Fash is smart while Amb is a sluggish fellow(you can tell from his size). Ever since he emerged the flag-bearer of the APC in Lagos State, i have never for once have faith in him.

I dont see him performing as the Governor..

He doesnt look smart at all. He is over-weight. Tinubu can easily get him because of his unsmartness, unlike Fashola.

Once again, I dont see Ambode performing

barcaboi:
lol.....we don't see eye 2 eye on a lot but u re good; tho u need to work on bn objective.....u'll definitely get where ur heart wants; not APC o...lol.....All the best

philips70:
You know Lai doesn't lie. He's just smarter and more articulate than his opponents.
This guy am talking about is a demon, yet he's a GO of a church. Fact is many of his victims do not know he lies to them.

You talk like you don't know how religion is a big factor in the north, why? ??

Yesterday you dodged the question on NOI abi

You know there is no way to "analyse" how it will be possible in this lifetime for the muslims in the north to vote a CHRISTIAN IGBO WOMAN

I have lived in NC for close to two decades, served in the far north & been to all the northern states, save 2 & have interacted with both sides, IT WILL NEVER HAPPEN.


As for Orobo baby, i don't expect better, he doesn't come across as a bright person.... otherwise he'd know what not to do..

TOOTSIEPOOPSIE:
Please what does NOI mean?
