God I have a phobia for it Biko.

FG should allow for more transparency in these money disbursement schemes to vulnerable Nigerians. Though not a bad idea, it can be greatly improved upon.

Vote TINUBU 2023. Vote APC.
Did you also receive your portion of the loot as an APC urchin? Please tell us how much they gave you.

But based on your response, is there any logic ? Should we just try and go academic a little. Don't you think your conclusion could be biased because you do not have enough evidence. Is there anywhere in philosophy or science to prove what you are saying? Or we could use available datas.
This is Bias based on Logic

I can understand you. But when you argue like this, it will be difficult to follow you logically. I am not a politician, and I have no interest in analysis of social political issues at hand. Be that at may, you have to be able to convince people, and yourseves after you must have done your own analysis based on datas . It is quite unfortunate peole do not use datas to make decision, especially in Nigeria.
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:
The noise makers know ds for a fact but right from inception of this great country, their Achilles heels has always been tribalism and bigotry.

The average ipobian had rather support a madman of Igbo descent than support an expert from another region all bcus "blood is thicker than water".
Their support for obi is not issue-based but ethnocentric. No amount of proof of excellent antecedents of tinubu will make them see him in good light talkless of vote for him; and no amount of proofs of wrongdoings of obi will stop them from voting obi.

An African proverb says " the pounded yam of 20 years can still scorch your hands". Las-las, by Feb 27, their eyes will clear!
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:
Vote Obi and stop disturbing us.

Despite the fact that campaign has not started, Tinubu for as far back as February said (as one of campaign promises) that WAEC and NECO examination will be free!


Tell us what are the campaign promises of Obi that made you think he's better than other aspirant if not that you all are emotional people who can't think deeply and easily driven by mere Political propaganda.

His lies has been busted many times!
He has his name linked to corruption!
He's not a youth!

What then made him a saint!

What are Obi legacies as Governor of Anambra, let's juxtapose.

It's a challenge.
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.

Mind you, voting for your faith doesn't mean voting for Christian or Muslim in an election but voting for what will benefit and not hamper your faith. The US usually have acclaimed Christian contestants/candidates and the people vote for people they think share their faith ideals on things like abortion, homosexuality etc.
So don't get it wrong, we may have a docile so called Christian like GEJ has president and they keep ransacking churches and kidnapping Christians. For one, Tinubu has shown from his days in Lagos government that he has no such bigotry. His wife is an acclaimed Christian pastor. He has selected two Christian governors and a Christian vice president and worked across tribe and religion for decades. He approves even people from other tribes to be Commissioners in Lagos state, something very much unheard of in other zones of the country.
Atiku is fulani and a fulani just spent 8years there. i don't see any sterling leadership qualities in him not found better and practically in Tinubu. They are both thieves BTW. They don't have godfathers and can't be easily manipulated by any cabal or whoever.
Obi on the other hand has an history as an impeached governor, he will likely spend the whole time whining/complaining about senate majority tying his hands. More so, his support base tendencies for tribalism, violence and ipobic treatment against any opposition is worrisome and Obi's silence is already deafening.
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!
