So what happens to the over 87 million people without cars? Subsidies should be wiped out completely.

He said it requires patience because u might not agree with most of the policies. So it means Aisha Buhari was right about the 2 powerful men.

It must be more than 12 million now even since the NBS figure is from Q1 2017.

That's exactly how their minions dish out figures here like madmen too.

"Igbo control 70% of Lagos"

"Tinubu owns 90% of Lagos"

"Igbo own 90% of houses on Banana island" etc

Okay, let's assume he was lying and that there are indeed 12 million vehicles in Nigeria, how does that invalidate his point that subsidy should be removed?

From his analysis.. 89 million people living in poverty is enough reason to quit subsidy and channel the funds into something more productive. How does 10 million more vehicles suddenly rate higher than emancipating the 89 million people?

Instead, Osinbanjo was busy ranting about PDP 16 years of misrule. Did he every pause to think that it was within this same time that Peter Obi cemented his top managerial skills at the helm of affairs of Anambra State and Fidelity Bank?

But then.. Obi's lie invalidates all he laid bare before Nigerians tonight..according to you. One thing remained clear though.. if I fail to deliver, Choose your leader.

When a man begins to lie so brazenly, especially when he pitched his tent with serial criminal such as Atiku, one can only reach a conclusion on what his ambition is all about.

Debates are meant to be fact-based and not for pulling out figures from one's butt cheeks.

Lets pretend that the serial criminals have no part in installing the current administration.
From your submission of forged Facts and figures. You used the plural form. Aside the 'number of vehicles', I fail to see the other fact(s) he purportedly lied about.
Meanwhile, our VP seem to believe the administration had been and is adding MWs to the national grid while the Minister of Power had clearly spelt out that it is not the administration's business.
But then; the 16 years of PDP misrule is the selling point cool, such that the audience had to voice their displeasure at the boringness of it all.

I happened to be domiciled at Anambra State during Obi's tenure and witnessed it first hand. So, I'm not in doubt of his eadership. It's those who haven't tasted that need to see cool
That is enough truth right there. Undiluted, and certainly not social media induced.
I am also in Nigeria during Buhari's tenure with Osinbajo as his vice. Oh boy!

I don't know what you lot expect.

You cannot support a most rapacious government to loot like money was going extinct, avoiding their obligations : salaries, pensions, debt to contractors and suppliers, cash calls to IOCs, abandoned projects, etc. Whilst berating every step another does to remedy the situation, in spite of low income.

You guys cried "corruption is killing this country" , "Lord send us a focused government" yet when you get it, you begin to usurp their purpose.

I've lived through so many governments to know that which is focused and resourceful.

You are free to choose your leader. As you make your bed....

I guess we heard a lot of PDP's 16 years of misrule and like the audience, got bored with it. It sold before coming into power; now it has lost its flavour. It was accepted as words because APC weren't in power then. Now, after four years, those words have failed woefully to translate into recognizable action by the average Nigerians; hence the reason it becomes boring for forcing more words down people's throats.
Talk Focus, Talk Resourceful, Talk Obi's government.
As for the corruption fight, save the bull crap for the birds. That's not selling anymore either grin

True. A similar scam was also enacted by Rochas pre-2015 election. Very few saw through it as the civil servants were the driving force behind it, shoving all their relations into it en masse. We all know how it died a natural death after achieving its aim. wink

Common sense should tell you it was a mistake. After the comment he asked what about the 87 million Nigerians who don't own cars? 190 million minus 2 million, will it give you 87 million?

You're still pushing this lame defense. Is it anybody's fault that Obi couldn't do simple arithmetic?

You should be the one telling us what he wanted to mention when he himself said 87 million Nigerians don't have cars yet we have over 180 million Nigerians and he mentioned 2 million vehicles. What figure did he have in mind? 20 million? 50 million? What figure did he slip-up on?

There are no 12 million cars on Nigerian roads. Use your brain. The statistics office calculated the number of cars imported and put out the figure. The actual number of cars plying Nigerian roads is about 2-3 million.
