The only positive thing from Buhari's emergence as president is that it the exposed Yoruba politician/activist as two timing, double-tongued slimy bitches that are bent on serving themselves with the deceptive cover of activism. From Soyinka to Bakare to Jiti Ogunye to Falana, the list is endless.


I believe you meant the Igbo leaders, a trait they inherited from Nnamdi Azikiwe who jumped ship during the civil war, ran to Lagos with his heavy scrotum to wave a tattered white flag at the detriment of his people.

Human rights lawyer Mr. Femi Falana (SAN) has lamented the possibility of Nigerians having to choose between current President Muhammadu Buhari and former Vice President Atiku Abubakar for the 2019 general election, stating that it portends trouble for the populace.
Mr. Falana said this while making a contribution during a panel discussion at the ongoing Lagos Book and Arts Festival holding in Freedom Park, Lagos.

He urged Nigerians to make use of the internet in raising serious developmental issues as regards the future of the country.

The human right lawyer also took a swipe at Governor Ayodele Fayose of Ekiti State who he described as a ‘Trump’.

“We have a Trump in Ekiti. Somebody is going out there to eat boli with the people. Somebody who says [he believes] in stomach infrastructure, stealing all the money but giving people just some tokenism and he is being celebrated."

He decried the rot in the Nigerian university system. “Where are the intellectuals in our universities?” he asked. “We now have ‘yahoo-yahoo’ professors. People are made professors now because of where the came from. It is not about your contribution to the intellectual enterprise. Now Vice Chancellor is elected on the basis of ethnicity."

Mr. Falana also condemned spiritual leaders who are merely concerned about building a more religious home at the expense of other institutions.

“Most of the richest pastors in the world are from Nigeria, yet our people are getting poorer. If many of us had not attended mission schools built by the Catholics and the Anglicans… school and hospitals but what are we building now? What are our churches giving us? They are promising to build churches in every street. All the warehouses in Apapa built by Awolowo have all become churches and business centers.

How are we better off? Based on what? You don come again, to they package people for us? When last did Atiku make statements on TV? How coherent are his statements?

He'll be worse than Buhari, at least Buhari claimed to be fighting corruption and he fought insecurity to some extent, Atiku is corruption personified and u don't know what substance he has than all the noise his paid/unpaid campaigners are making.

This is where many miss the point. There is NOTHING wrong in seeking a better alternative. There is nothing wrong in holding the said alternative accountable and criticizing rubbish policies. Lastly, there is nothing wrong with being disappointed in this alternative and seeking a replacement. People wrongly assume that once you vote for a person, you have to blindly stand by him and support every single action since you "Rooted for him".

Falana is a certified con artist parading himself as Mr Know It All , I used to be a fan of Falana in past when I thought he was a sincere man but since the coming of Buhari He has exposed himself to be nothing but a two timing , mouth shifting con artist and opportunist who is more concerned about how use his treacherous lying mouth to buy more properties in Ikeja GRA ...Mr Falana and his fellow Atiku is corrupt sirens should for once provide evidence of Atikus bad leadership or so called corruption because the last time I checked Atiku has never held any elected office besides that of the caged Vice President where Obasanjo made sure he was a dead beat with no power other than the seal on his letter head , so in tgis light i would want all thos peeople saying Atiku is corrupt to prove it us instead of propagating a false myth deviced by Obasanjo and the SW media ...The only thing Atiku is gulity of is having the vision to key into into the Intels dream many many years ago as a young man and i belive thats the kind if leader Nigeria needs not an empty corrupt sloganist like Buhari

oga why waste much space campaign for atiku ,, who needs falana to come nd solve atiku corrupt equation when obasanjo already told us,, ur boss atiku dd not even deny,, he claimed obasanjo was corrupt tew and make sure obasanjo 3rd term dd not succeed.. which was gud4 us.
atiku was a custom boss in era corruption was mere pickpocketing ... custom is an institition were officers take corruption courses like its GST. #fear them

No offense observed.
Trump is an outsider in political establishment, who refused to be conned into the world of political correctness and virtue signaling, which is the prevailing agenda in Western Europe and the Western Hemisphere. The man represents himself rather than special interests as has always been the norm.

Trump is loyal to America and his voting base only. And it's silly for any Nigerian to think he gives a hoot about your opinions when you don't even have water or sewage system for fuccks sake!

Nigerian degree is worthless.

this comment is an example why nigeria can never develop or come out of the present state it is right now since the last 40years. we want inprovement but with people who dont care about what you want. Atiku may be a better president when he is compared to Buhari but he would be worse than Babangida and Abachas regine put together.

Seriously, Nigerian politics is in comatose, we are just deceiving ourselves, the ruling class determine our choices by creating a system that keeps others out. For example independent candidacy is not yet approved in our constitution and an ordinary candidate needs a lot of fund to compete in Nigeria. We're always left with APC, Pdp or the likes

This reply is so on point that I don't know what to label it. I m sure the guy will be highly embarrassed, buhari is bad market no intelligent person will stick out his neck for him this time, those trying now should look around the people left are the ignorant and uninformed apart from those benefiting from his government.
