Do you expect Tinubu to apoint an Ibo man as his personal Chef?! Or is it Akpu you want to feed him?!

His personal doctor is his blood family a Tinubu... Do you want him to apoint someone without his medical records

Nosa his personal photographer followed Tinubu about free of charge snapping picture and posting it now he was rewarded after Seyi spotted him

What of Tunde Rahman his media aide since 1999, defending him against many media gbas gbos

Then all resources needed to run Nigeria should be extracted from the SW. You guys are just so stupid. What's funding their salaries? Cocoa or what?

Politics / Re: Growing Up As Femi Adesina’s Daughter By Tosin Adesina by ProfAmaben(m): 10:07am On Jul 12, 2023

Growing up as Femi Adesina’s daughter
By Tosin Adesina

What haven’t they said about my face being a true reflection of my father’s familiar face?

Spitting image. Carbon copy. Chip off the old block. I have heard it all. When I was young, and we used to go out together a lot, people will see us and say: “Ah, ah. Did you think your father was running away? Why do you look like him so much?”

Let’s get started. I was born and bred in Lagos over two and a half decades ago. Originally from Ipetumodu, in Osun State, I’ve lived all my life in Lagos, save for a few stays abroad: France, United Kingdom, United States of America, South Africa, Ghana, and many other places.

I grew up knowing my father, Femi Adesina, as a journalist. The house was a forest of books and newspapers. Books, books. Newspapers. Newspapers. And I started reading them. Scratch that, Dad forced me to read because I preferred watching TV (LOL). Little Red Riding Hood changed it for me—now this is a family secret.
In the early days, Dad was reporting for the Weekend Concord. I didn’t like the fact that he was away from home most times. We would plan family holidays and at the last moment, Dad wouldn’t be able to go. One thing or the other had come up at work. I and my brother, Tobi, my senior by two years, loved going to Ipetumodu, to spend time with our grandparents, but more often than not, we went with Mummy, as Dad would be busy at work. That’s the life of a journalist, which I was to experience briefly.

Mum is a nurse. A passionate and dedicated one. She’s matron of a private hospital in Lagos. She has always been there for us. Firm, godly and dedicated. I remember me and Tobi used to nickname her “Mrs. Oboye” behind her back. How did it happen? We attended Caleb International College in Magodo area of Lagos, and one Mrs. Funmi Oboye was the head teacher. Tough and strict. Every morning, at the Assembly, she subjected us to lessons from the word of God. As young people, we felt her homilies were too long, and we often grumbled. When we came on holidays, and Mummy was also taking all the time at morning devotion, we would look at each other and whisper: “Mrs. Oboye.”

Tobi is a pilot, and has been for the past nine years. He is a specialist in the Boeing 737, having trained in South Africa and Sweden. He also has the Airline Transport Pilot Licence from Boeing Centre, Miami, Florida.

Dad was Managing Director/Editor-in-Chief of The Sun Newspapers when he was invited to serve as Special Adviser on Media and Publicity to the former President Muhammadu Buhari. We are a private family. Though a journalist, my dad was not loud and honestly really didn’t change from who I knew him to be. He lived a quiet, modest life, and brought us up that way. Never mind how people portray him in the media and social media. Suddenly, working with the President brought him out there, in the glare of the nation. And there followed the good, the bad and the ugly.

There were times people would meet me and say: “Adesina? Ah, you resemble Buhari’s media man.” At times, I own up, some other times, I duck. It’s better to leave them wondering. I was silent about our relationship for the better part of the administration because I really wasn’t interested in the hassle that came with it. The good times opened us up to opportunities we might not have had without the position. Thank God for it all. The bad and ugly were people saying all sorts of rubbish about my dad and not being able to trust anyone. In the beginning, it worried me. But later, the Holy Spirit helped me overcome it all.
Dad really loves Buhari. No doubt about that. He would defend him anywhere, any time and on any issue. At home when gisting with the family, you could feel his loyalty and love for his boss. He speaks well of him everywhere. In and out of office, Dad is a Buharist to the core.

I studied French at the University of Ibadan. Lived in France at different times, did my NYSC as a reporter and presenter with Channels Television. I was given a job after, which I held for about a year. Now, I have a media and publishing company called LOTW Group (Living Out The Word) which holds LOTW Network, LOTW Kids, LOTW Studios, LOTW Publishing, Shop LOTW and LOTW Travel. The focus is really to put God at the centre stage of our lives, because He tells me He doesn’t like it when people seem to remember Him only on Sundays. So He wants to be a part of our lives even on Mondays to Saturdays and I’m the one He is giving the responsibility to. He said: “Tosin, I want you to put me in the centre of people’s lives.” Well, His wish is my command.

I also run a French language agency and resource centre called Ma Petite France. M.P.F teaches French to kids and adults and provides French learning resources to schools.

Once upon a time, I wanted to be a journalist like Dad and I did in fact venture into it for a while. I won’t say I’m completely out because I’m still in media and publishing.

My life’s goal and focus is to influence people to know God and do life with Him. Every other thing I do is a means to that end. I have been blessed by God tremendously. He allowed me to be born into the home of Femi and Nike Adesina where I was taught about Him, shielded, cared and provided for. Dad is a responsible father, he is present. I can call him at any time and share any idea or plan I have with him. I can talk to him about work, men, life, God, anything. I have been blessed with a father not a lot of people get to have on this earth and I am proud of him regardless of people’s opinion about him—good or bad.

Every young lady aspires to matrimony. So do I, and it’s coming soon. My mom and dad are probably the happiest about it. Mom can’t wait for me to leave her house so she can finally fill my wardrobe with all of her extra clothes. (LOL)

We laugh a lot. Just as my dad is famous for his tendency to laugh often. While we were all in Ipetumodu for holidays, a friend to my dad’s sister came for the weekend. When she was leaving, she remarked: “It’s been an experience being with the Adesinas this weekend. They laugh as if they have no care in the world.” That in a nutshell is my story.

Politics / Re: Gory Picture Of One Of The Tinubu Yorubba Thugs Killed In Alaba by ProfAmaben(m): 7:31am On Oct 21, 2022
FreeStuffsNG:
If this picture you want to use to incite a reprisal is true and not your usual fake news from your ipob terrorist group then there is wisdom in Lagos state government's decision to close down the market indefinitely to avoid serious reprisal attacks or coordinated arson akin to the one your ipob terrorist group unleashed on Lagos in 2020.

Lagos is a peaceful place in Yorubaland and we have our ancestors and forebears to thank for that heritage we guide jealously.

We invite others to invest in Lagos and we ensure their stay and investment is rewarding to them and their families.

Anyone who is filled with hate and bigotry will find Lagos too hot for him or her.

You did nothing when they were extorting people indiscriminately. I keep telling nairaland fools like you, come out of your enclaves and meet real men, you'll probably be killed too. You're the violence inciter.

Some still want to support a group of plauders and looters like this.

Pathetic

I liked this comment but it's wrong. He's not their governor or senator, they voted him out for APC candidates. Go and ask Kogi people what's wrong with them.

What’s stopping the clueless government destroyer Buhari from doing the electricity for the past 7 years he had been in power. Still experiencing erratic power supply in Nigeria. Don’t put your frustration on Atiku Abubakar joor, it’s the clueless APC government that has spent 7 years in government that you should put your frustration on. Atiku Abubakar is a unifier and has come to restructure Nigeria to the best state of development.

Atiku stole money meant for power transmission, go and verify

Good thing is that they remain pictures.. Wike Romance with southwest against 2027 is dead already..

By endorsing Lagos governor means he has given up on 2023 .. and for those saying Wike is fighting Atiku because of southern interest..

Guess it’s clearer to all that there’s no interest anywhere and no one among the politicians gives a fvck if power go north or hell.. Na to secure permanent interest in Nigeria settings and cut a nip out of the structure .. no Wike is fighting for anyone

Okay

Which of that southerner will defeat Asiwaju in a national election?

Can Wike beat Tinubu assuming he got Pdp ticket ?

Can Obi win Tinubu with Pdp ticket in Nigeria politics?
Talk more Labour ..

Many don’t understand Tinubu ticket and humans behind it

Is a ticket that must be stopped by sane Nigerians

Thank Goodness majority are wiser ..


Tinubu can never ever be the president of Nigeria .. e too sure ... for heavens forbid him .. as President of Nigeria .. his limitations stop in the land of oduduwA ..

Power to the people
North 2023

Reno don already dey celebrate

My celebration the start .. November.


Trash. Obi would win the 2 old criminals and retire them permanently. Go to Kenya and ask about Ralia Odinga, Africa has moved beyond ethnocentrism in politics, give reasons why we should vote your candidate and leave Obi out of your dirty mouth.

lhordspy:
For people that dont like reading the content of a news, before running to comment based on the sensational headlines.
Please read what i got from there. I will be quoting the special adviser to the CAN president now, what he said.

He stated that:

“Dearly beloved, it’s quite possible that you have read a story published by a national daily where the Chairman, Christian Association of Nigeria, CAN, Lagos State, Rt. Rev. Dr. S.T.V Adegbite was quoted as saying ‘God will punish us, if we don’t support Tinubu – Lagos CAN.’
“I can reliably inform you that this headline is not only misleading but totally out of context. This is not a damage control but setting the records straight.
“Clearly, the aforementioned was said in his personal capacity and premised on his wonderful relationship with Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu".



Just re-read the last line again. The CAN president actually said it. Even though it wasnt in the capacity of his positions as CAN president. But he said it as a person.


So where is the denial here? Can OP tell us where he denies ever saying it?

How can a structure less party with an incompetent candidate win the election? Even in his region he will struggle to win two states. Isn't ojukwu more popular, more charismatic than Obi? But what happened when he contested for the position of the president? Southeast didn't vote for him.

Plateau, Benue, Taraba etc are also in the North, please, always specify which north when making reference to the north
