VoteTinubu2023:Did you also receive your portion of the loot as an APC urchin? Please tell us how much they gave you. |
PaChukwudi44: ![]() |
Rastaramsey:Your own dream. Dont prject your shortcomings on other people. Everybody has different mentality and that is the difference between people who are successful and people who are not. |
They probably will get 12months or a fine and most definitely a ban from the UK if they do not have properties there. |
perrychemical:This is Bias based on Logic |
perrychemical:Speaking of logic, I will break it down for you incase you did not get the logic: 1. Age should not be a criteria for good governance. 2. The present president is old and performed poorly, part of which was age related.Therefore.... 3. I will not be voting for a presidential candidate who has passed a certain age threshold. That is logic. Chew on it. |
[quote author=perrychemical post=114106248][/quote]well, I agree with you that you cannot juxtapose age and make it a yardstick for good governance or performance and I totally agree with you that Buhari, even younger, would not have been different from what he currently is. But now, those metrics, are not in favor of Tinubu which is the age. It would be safe to say that part of Buhari's ailment was as a result of his old age. He spent alot of time outside the country treating himself for sicknesses when he could have been working. Its just like discarding the criminal record of an applicant for a job just because you think that he has the right skills for said job. You will just not get the job based on other metrics no matter how excellent and in your favor other areas of strength are. The compendium of criteria we are utilizing to evaluate candidates, one factor could be more important that others to different people and for me, his age is the most important factor. This is how I feel about Tinubu's candidature. |
lol. what is/are the offence? he was removed from office twice but finished his 8years as the court brought him back, so please tell us the offense of Peter Obi and why he was impeached. This writeup has more than 20 lines and none mentioned exactly what Peter Obi did.. |
richie240:To be honest with you all, and I do hope that you see my argument from my point of view. Tinubu had many things that went well for him given that from 1999 he was the first governor to handle Lagos after a long military regime. Lagos has always been the centre of excellence, anyday and anytime. You need to be someone like Buhari to not make anything good in the 8years you handle a state like Lagos, now using buhari as a comparison is the worst case scenario. Tinubu also had the privilege of being in opposition that did very well after pdp. Infact, he single handedly carried AD to the point where it is now (APC), as much as you see it as a disadvantage this helped him become much more powerful and influential in his own right. Tinubu is a shrewd politician and i agree with that. But were you living in Lagos when Tinubu was governor, did you also live in Lagos when Fashola was governor? If so, you will agree with me that in terms of development, Tinubu did not do much for lagos as compared to his successor Fashola, as far as the visibility rather than the actual backbone of the work that was done in their combined 16years. This could have been for many reasons. one of which I would deduce is the fact that he (Tinubu) probably laid the ground work on what other governors after him ran on, he was also able to control (which was big to his advantage) the choice and selection after him for over 20+ years. Its easier to see the pain points of others from outside the circle, rather than when you are in it, and especially, when you have the machinery to control it, you can swing the tides your way (which I believe, is what he "Tinubu" did). With that being said, Tinubu under different conditions, such as his age, may have been the best fit for a president given his influence, power and wealth of experience but, I will say, we do not want another Buhari in power. we should not deceive ourselves, Tinubu is way older than how old he claims to be. For this reason alone (his age), I am not supporting him. Nigeria is at a time now where we need someone who will hit the ground running, is not slow, can be at multiple meetings in a short span, will be physically present and to be honest, Tinubu is not that person. We cannot have another 8years of someone that will behave like Buhari in terms of health status. Also, if I was to choose between the two top contenders, I would have gone for an Atiku because he is an inclusive person, he looks physically healthy than Tinubu and also has experience and businesses which semi-automatically translate to the fact that he will be able to manage an economy well. Then again, if you look at the other spectrum, why will someone want to even vote the both of them in the first place when there is someone much younger, also has a good track record as a former governor, is intellectually sound like the others, able to hit the ground running and has already given snippets of what he can do to move the economy forward which revolves around cutting waste, and increasing production, getting people out of poverty which i think is a good way in a sense to solve many of the issues we are facing today. first of all, these earlier mentioned themes are encompassing because they have sub-themes embedded in them. First off, how do you increase production. This means that you will have to work on the factors of production, Land, Capital, Labor and Entrepreneurship. They also have their sub-themes and the depth goes on and on, and you will need to tackle all these sub-themes before you can say yes, you increased production. You cannot increase production without fixing electricity, you also cannot increase production without working on the distribution channels which also has to do with how those goods get to where they get to. This means that transportation, roads, storage has to be fixed. I am just giving you a snippet to how these things actually work and work well for you to say yes by tackling these, you increased production, got people out of poverty and also increased the capacity and earnings of the economy you are governing. This is the reason I prefer a Peter Obi because I do believe he is sound, has a clear statement of purpose, and will also check the factors that has been a topic of discussion for a long time now, a SE presidency (it is only fair that we see what SE can do at the helm of affairs. It can never be half as bad as the present administration) , a Christian (a Northern muslim just did his 8years) and a much younger presidential candidature. |
TheNiceGuy:They should tell us their plan for the economy and not giving us handouts. because if you have a plan to really fix the economy and do it, nobody needs free waec and neco because everybody who goes that route will be able to afford it. We want to know their plans to lift Nigerians out of poverty. |
sgtponzihater1:Im talking of the uk. Nobody send am there |
sgtponzihater1:Pardon where? UK abi na nigeria? |
Im Igbo but if its what this man did, i do not have any single pity for him. He should go and answer for his crime. Nigeria is big enough to have a developed healthcare system and no one should be travelling for healthcare in nigeria. Tueh! |
sgtponzihater1:When he is not fulani. Nobody go send am |
Fashionista01:Gbam! |
jchioma:You could not have said it better. Let him pay for his sins. Maybe this is Gods way of chasing the idiot out of the senate as him no wan comot before. Useless people. |
Image123:You made sense up to this bolded part. 1 who has whined more than any other leader in power that buhari? Even till this day, he is still whining about the last administration. This is 7years running! Who the furck does that? Also you should know that Peter Obi is only a public figure and does not hold any constituted power.he can only talk in his capacity as a concerned human being and citizen. Besides, IPOB has not done 1/20 of what Bokoharam has done to nigeria and nothing has been done. If Obi plays his cards wel, many federal lawmakers will defect to the ruling party. You know Nigerian politicans, they cannot not stay on the winning aide even if it costs them their integrity. I believe a chrisitian, a southerner and Igbo should be the next president and i believe obi fits that bracket! |
KaluwisxPRO:Your papa, so even after I apologize you still think say u fit open your dirty mouth insult me? comot for here abeg |
KaluwisxPRO:I just saw that another news outlet confirmed it to be Senator Ekweremadu. My excuses. |

alsudan:Person just hive you facts. Instead make you attack the message na the messenger you start to dey attack. |
