Wiseandtrue:

Tinubu's governorship(under performance) in Lagos State cannot be used as a yardstick for his ascension to the post of a president!!! It will be erroneous to do that! Lagos was a mess under Tinubu (it's only his paid miscreants) that will argue otherwise

Even the military regime (Buba Marwa) was better and peaceful than that of Tinubu

Not to mention that of Fashola

So if it's base on merit, I expected pressure to be mounted on Fashola to run! Fashola is not only young and vibrant, he's full of ideas!!!

But stomach infrastructure will not allow you guys to do that

So quantinue

its pathetic the way people try to distort history by saying Tinubu had an excellent run as governor in Lagos state governor which is a blatant lie. Even before Lagos funds were frozen, he was pathetic. Buba Marwa was miles ahead as an administrator, same with Fashola and the much vilified Ambode. He's on par with Sanwo Olu though but just slightly

I hear say lalasticlala dey pound snake for backyard

Amoda Lamidi Sangodele..,he would have probably been a Makosa musician with that name. ....
He chose wisely....

candidtalk:


Thank you. Those obsessed with him have pathetic lives, leaders and region also.

Northerners shamelessly angling to remain in power despite failing their people and Nigeria hideously. The North is now universally seen as a hotbed of terrorism and insecurity that may engulf Nigeria.

Or the SE with the most greedy and worthless misrulers in Nigeria who never believe in making Hay while the Sun shines only to show at the last minute demanding this and that.

Hate or like Tinubu, it is no longer about him. Issues are now an open attempt to ridicule and treacherously disenfranchise Yorubas.

Let Tinubu announce he is not running tomorrow and we will see the same group of detractors attacking him refocus their cannons on Osinbajo, Fashola or whoever the SW wants to present.

It is the big picture many ordinary Yorubas should focus on as our leader, from Obas to even PDP stalwarts like Fayose, show they are doing already.

This your narrative will not sway anybody,leave Yoruba out of it,tinubu has always been about tinubu not Yorubas or anybody,he should play his game and leave us out of it,but good luck to him

They are playing the same script they did with buhari,deceive Nigerians buhari is now a reformed Democrats,now we know better,they have started the white washing of tinubu now thinking we will bite the bait,once bitting twice shy.

Indeed. Is it then still democracy when there is an openly ethnocentric, distasteful and bullying clamour to force Jagaban out of the race whereas no one else faces similar?

Yorubas should really think. Others, especially Igbos, are saying Tinubu must not run.

Yet same people shouting to demarket Tinubu have no objection to Atiku, Kalu, Obi, Tambuwal, Kwankwaso, Umahi etal contesting.

Whereas Tinubu is by far superior to all those names as far as administrative talent, leadership innovation and vision is concerned.

The more you look at the opposition to Tinubu's candidacy the more you see fear of radical and progressive change (North) and undiluted ethnocentric hatred (SE).

Look around you and note African history. Sankara, Nkrumah, Awolowo and many others, visionaries ahead of their times, were frustrated similarly by enemies of progress.

Don't get emotional.... It is all politicking don't kill urself oo.... Even tinubu will come to SE to canvass for vote during campaigns.... If he emerges as APC flag bearer... No allow Nigeria give you HBP... in fact the real enemies na people like fayemi wet fit use religion weley Tinubu oo....

Tinubu has anyways been about Tinubu yet he pushed the following to position of prominence in Nigeria:

Osinbajo
Fashola
Fayemi
Gbajabiamila
Sunday Dare
Mamora
Lai Mohammed
Fowler
Dabiri
Abiru
Solomon Adeola
Fayemi
Ojudu
Obanikoro
Dapo Abiodun
Amosun
Oyetola
Abdulrasaq
Etc.

The above mentioned Yoruba names and others too numerous to mention were supported to national limelight by Tinubu. They also cut across all Yoruba speaking states. So, mention one person that has done more than Tinubu in terms of promoting brilliant Yoruba administrators to prominence?

you can even add Obasanjo to it,supporting lackeys , stooges, to positions for personal gain or influence is not for public good but personal aggrandizement,it is still about what to gain in the immediate or future,not altruistic,same he did with buhari with the intent to gain the presidency at the expense of the people,support has robbed Nigerians of their peace and economic well being,but it's of no concern of his he just wants his price.

This is what hatred does to those that hate. It blocks their brain from sensibly seeing the good in others. No matter how much good the person you hate does, it would amount to nothing in the sight of haters. Good enough, people like you are in the minority. Majority still have their brains intact and that’s why support for Tinubu is growing all over the country daily.

Apart from helping to place Yorubas in prominent positions to defend the interest of the region, Tinubu has been active in advocating for the infrastructural development of the region. You think it’s just a coincidence that Buhari started and completed the Lagos-Ibadan railway before kaduna-Kano? You think it’s just luck that Lagos-Ibadan expressway is getting so much attention and now about 80% completed? The Dangote refinery in Lagos that will provide so much employment for Lagosians has received tremendous support from government and would commence operation this year. You think a GEJ or Atiku administration would have supported all these projects?

Ordinary Olokola LNG that was started by Obasanjo, Jonathan killed it off because it was located in the south west. Still, people like you that claim to be from the south west can’t use your head and understand the game.

Even the rain fall in South West that brought about bountiful harvest was made possible by the benevolent tinubu,that corona has not killed off all Yorubas have tinubu hands in it, Bros you can continue to delude your self and leak ass to your content, more people than the myopic tinubu supporters where you belong knows what to do when the time comes,am sure in your calculation,you will include bakare amongst the growing supporters of your tinubu,going by his recent sermon,that shows how intelligent you are.

You are sad and pathetic. The guy gave a brilliant argument to defend his opinion. He pointed at infrastructural achievements that will benefit even you, your relatives and unborn generation if indeed you are Yoruba.

Yet all you can come out with is some lame drivel showing, exactly as claimed , that you are an irredeemable creature of hate. I feel sorry for you.

You're a grade A m0r0n. His point is that fools like you should shore up your candidate to compete against others like Tinubu.

Start making this about selling your candidate rather than trying to stop BAT. What you and others are doing reeks of fear and cowardice.

You want an Orji Okorocha and Atiku presidency but at the least mention of Tinubu, you go haywire and your moral compass is immediately set in motion. Tell me, is that not hypocrisy?

Hear it loud and clear, Tinubu will take a shot at the presidency, only Nigerians and not your likes can stop him.

Lol you Igbos are always funny.

Nigerian politics no b like the way you dey see am. Anybody the APC produce in 2022 will become the president in 2023.

Factors play in Nigerian politics. Is not by opening mouth & saying APC will win in 2023, it's the factors that will play out in 2023 that will determine who wins, PDP or APC. For now, it's not clear which party will win.

Yeah he "chopped" Lagos State yet every Nigerian is migrating there in their tens of thousands daily.

Who is interested in going to look for anything in your own State of origin that has not been "chopped"? You guys and shameless hypocrisy plus silly excuses you think mask your bigoted hate for Jagaban.

If Tinubu "chopped" Lagos then all Nigerian should beg for their Governors to chop their State too as BAT did Lagos. Nonsense.

That's the "Godfather" attitude that people hate.

One man should not be able to handpick who gets an elective position.

That's Y he got kicked in Edo.

For that singular reason, people are beginning to believe that fighting Tinubu is fighting for Nigeria's democracy & fighting away Godfatherism.

Many Nigerians are going to fight to ensure that Tinubu will never be Nigeria's president.

One man can't sit in Lagos and be handpicking Benue states next governor or Edo state's next governor all in the name of nonsense Jagabam. He should handpick in SW but never try that nonsense in other parts of Nigeria.

Tinubu is a talent hunter, he specialises in identifying brilliant minds and help them attain political stardom. He doesn't impose his wish on the electorates, he only helps project the good sides of his preferred candidates and canvass for support. Is that not what democracy is?

Did Tinubu force Edo people to vote Oshiomole when he worked for his election?
Did he force Kwara people to vote against Saraki in the political tsunami that swept Saraki away from the corridor of power?
Did he force Nigerians to vote Buhari on the two occasions of 2015 and 2019 electioneering?

I understand you're very myopic but kindly put an objective lens on and learn to differentiate democracy which Tinubu represents and "whatever" you guys are trying so hard to rob him in.

What's the point of this silly article? Can't stand people always obsessed over the past when myriads of problems face us currently. It is Tinubu's ancestry that is now a PHD thesis for some?

The more this garbage goes on the more most Yorubas are becoming convinced we need to get out of Nigeria as there may be no way to live and develop in it alongside Northerners and other non-Yorubas.

All this puke-inducing and non-stop idiocy because the dishonorable and institutionally-inept born-to-rule North and the clannish, cowardly and disorganized SE both see Tinubu as the biggest threat to their unprincipled and rapacious ambitions.

It is time all Yorubas, regardless of religious or political affiliation, begin resisting this non-stop attack on Jagaban. What has the man done to the North that is destroying itself or the SE Igbos are abandoning in droves to move to SW because of leadership misrule?

Yorubas should think carefully. They rubbish Tinubu, to gain power, and they rubbish and rob all of us Yorubas .

You're worse than a slave. You're condemned.

Just look at the absolute nonsense you are saying. Is Tinubu the best Yorubas can put forward? Osibanjo is already up there as the Vice President and the natural 'next in line'. Why can't you mobilise Yoruba support for your son Osibanjo who is already there and does not have the obnoxious baggage of corruption and deceit that trails Tinubu? Why must it be Tinubu or no one else for the Yoruba race? You're an absolute idiot. You shameless fools who collect crumbs from thiefinumbu's dustbin of corruption and sell your souls because of that, you will be forever damned.
