The bulk of voters in Nigeria are not on the internet. So every poll is just a sampling of internet based voters who might be in Australia and do not have a voters card just like me

Or people who will rather watch BBN or Premier league on election day

In 2019 na Fela Durotoye, Moughalu and Sowore dey dominate internet polls because del sabi speak English

Buhari was not trending online

atiku actually won 90% of online polls in 2019.

I guess BAT ain't the only presidential Candidate right? What of Atiku and Kwankwaso? Why ain't you care to know much or better about them?

Who is Atiku?
Where was he born?
Who are his parents?
What primary and secondary school did he attend?

BTW.... what's your obsession with BAT basic Education? Did he sit for GCE or not? Did he attend higher Institution or not? Did he work with international firms both in the Country and outside the Country or not?

Perhaps you can help us with his real details as unravalled by Obidients Bureau of Intelligence.

hehehehe

Is there any place where anyone is telling you that the government should take over everything? How about helping local companies!? What part of it you don't understand? Must it be foreign companies? Agree you incapable of creating a Shell or Eninor Chevron!? I gave you examples of similar companies created by nations with oil deposits like Nigeria and you started your drivels. ARAMCO is a Saudi indigenous Oil company that is doing even better than your shell. Ditto petrogas. Build up your own businesses like they have done

if that is not your arguement.

Then you missed the point of my arguement


Have a great day.

owobokiri:
Do you know about ARAMCO?
Google about the company, what it does, who owns it and how it has revolutionalized the Saudi economy with Saudi Oil wealth, then come back to this thread and make better informed posts.
Why should shell be building refineries for you!?
60 years since you started oil explorations and you haven't been able to raise an indigenous Oil major to do that?
Google PETRONAS too..

are you even following the arguement at all or you just wanna sound cool?

Lemme repeat myself one last time.

When government takes over stuff, that stuff is run to the ground and it deters foreign and local investors because they can't compete with government who will be the one dictating in that market.

We saw that in telecoms until government completely removed their hands. Then foreign and local investors are competing favorably.

Every other things government runs is now in shambles thanks to corruption and negligence. So don't you think it's insane to ask the same government to start running other sector?

Capitalists countries all over the world don't allow government to run anything but regulate the market cos government running things is not always efficient.

Imagine government taking over mining of limestone mining In the country and forcing the likes of dangote to compete with it in the cement industry, then we will probably be exporting limestone today and importing cement at market price.

The likes of armarco belongs to royal family, it's still technically a private investments that the royal families feed fart on and wouldn't want it run to the ground unlike countries that practice democracy.


I hope you got it now.

owobokiri:
He's not even talking about just government companies, he is also talking about building up indigenous private companies to play serious roles in these areas in other to create jobs, domesticate technology and retain earnings! This is so easy to grasp but you guys are making it look like rocket science! MTN is not a South African government company. It's an indigenous South African private company dominating the telecom business in Nigeria. South Africa propped up that company to world standards. Today it's competing seriously on the international stage.

Are you guys saying that Nigerians and Nigerian companies are inherently incapable of such? Is that not the height of inferiority complex? Instead of deliberately auctioning off Nigerias mineral assets to unconcerned foreigners at every turn, why not empower local players to be more active in these areas? Is there any example of a major economy that has been developed totally by outsiders? Do you know that MTN ships out billions of dollars in this country on yearly basis? Do you know that capital flight is part of the reason for forex scarcity in Nigeria? How can you control your economy to serve your people if all the major players are foreigners, from banks to telecom to mining?

you missed the whole point and you turned it on its head.


Investors don't have to be foreigners. it could be local. But if government takes large portion of a particular investment, it deters investors and competition.

We have seen that in everything else government controls.

The likes of globacom is a private investor in communication competing with it's foreign counterpart and dictating the market.

Expecting government to take over another mining sector instead of issuing licences like what they just proposed for Tesla is stupid.

Shell etc could have been the ones to build refinery for the country and export finished petroleum to the rest of the world if proposals like this were in place when those companies took over.
But no, Nigeria government wanted to do long throat. Now all the refineries are dead, now they are exporting crude oil at cheap price and importing petroleum at market price as those who don't even have the crude oil.

ScamHunter:
Nonsense policy. Are all these raw materials the white man is extracting and giving Africans paper renewable? Why are blacks so sense? Who is the wealth going to since 500 years? Why are Africans incapable of using their own wealth or going to Asia and America to bring back raw materials?

isn't that what the policy is supposed to stop?

You sabi read so?

Ruke1989:
stop talking like a politician, if govt can monopolize the crude oil through NNPC being sole importer, if govt can monopolize security and not allow state or private police like in the US or UK, if govt can monopolize seaport, airport construction and ownership unlike having private airports in the UK, then don't they have no excuse.
You should be educated enough to have heard about Public Private Partnership (PPP), Build Operate and Transfer (BOT) business models. If foreign investor doesn't come to mine your minerals 60 years after your birth, you politicians should not be lazy, look for any of the profitable business models above and build companies based on that. That way the private sector manages it and it will be effective.
Why can't you lazy politicians own and run business efficiently. It's because of your laziness and hatred for reforms. Govt all over the world run companies efficiently - China, Russia, Saudi, Indian, UK, German, South Africa govts, etc run companies efficiently. What makes you different is your spell bound corruption and laziness

how are the likes of nnpc, security etc doing compared to segment dominated fully by private investors like communications?

Double post

If this story is true, then that means Nigerian leaders are beginning to have sense.


Infact if I'm the president, I will tell them, whatever they mine Nigeria should never be exported as raw materia but finished product.

Mine it, turn them to batteries here and ship the finished batteries to the rest of the world.

No more exporting raw materials for scrap and importing expensive finished product.

It's madness.

OasisX:


Aswear..... dem jez wanna chop em money and vote wisely at the polls.

Obidatti is the deal.

I know about 100 of those marching personally. I hear someone of them talking on okada that they only came to collect money. They will all vote for obi.

They are all obidense

Lol

Over 10, 000 people are marching, but we should pay attention to about 5 people collecting money from someone.

How delusional can people get?

OasisX:


Massive.... no? Just 100 paid Urchins.

hehehehehehe.

Tilumbu will not get 1000 votes in Oyo state.

raumdeuter:
Chart which way forward, People like that will rather tell you that your own story is a lie and theirs is the truth. Balewa died of ezcema, Akintola died of Asthma, Okotie-Eboh died by hitting his leg on a stone, Ademulegun died of overeating and Bello died of viagra. They only victims allowed in this case and only their stories are true

Did you not read when they agreed Rolands story of his family members death was true but mine was false

broooo

Massive stuff.

Copy copy.


Tinubu must be his mentor.

Nezzjnr:
Obi turned some Anambra men to drug Slingers??

Omooooo una takes for here dey off me oo

Jesus Christ!!!

you understand English so?

Shey make I explain my post in igbo?

SadiqBabaSani:
You are too openly biased

for stating the obvious?

That's a capable man with solid track record like tinubu

You have to vote competency over sentiment.

TrebleChamp:
She is an Obidient with her full chest...

then she is just another dumb clout chasing zombidient.
She probably thought obi started politics 2 months ago when you can post nonsense on Twitter for the likes and shares.

Someone needs to remind her that obi is part of the old political system that made people run from Anambra to another country. He turned some anambrans to desperate drug slingers who are now dying or awaiting trials in prisons all over the world.

TrebleChamp:
Word!

exactly

We say make dem embrace sowore, them say no.


I hope she's is not promoting obi sha. Cos that will just make that post absolutely dumb.

raumdeuter:
No proof just like this one too, No proof that was money being shared, It could have been business card or flyers. This image might even be Tinubu wearing disguise to show like its Peter Obi

lmfao

oluwaseyi0:
This issue is overflogged

You can't have control over all and every single party members

If some members/candidates decide to give out some stuff it's actually beyond the presidential candidate

the problem is, when others do it, it bad.. but when they do it's good.

Tinubu bow for king - slave
Obi knelt before atiku - humble.


Isn't that madness?

Obigot finally dolling out those Pandora haven money small small. Atleast now our so called "mothers" can enjoy small money from the stingy one and not just his children.

Atleast they didn't say it was apc that created the gift this time like they did for the praying mat issue.




When apc members do this - bad
When zombidients do it - good

When tinubu bowed to the king - slave
When obi knelt for atiku - humble


Mad and desperate zombies.

Corridon:
Still under Tinubu's lap. Tinubu should allow Lagos to breathe.

If by breathe, you mean turn from 5th biggest economy in Africa into to another alaibo where people can't go out on mondays.

Then No, Thank you.

Igbo christians and igbo Jews are the major problem of south east. They are agents of division and hate.
They want to dominate every religion.
Igbo Muslims like me cannot practice his religion in peace because igbo christians are so full of hate.

Igbo Muslims are becoming endangered in south east. We cannot even show our face in the public without getting descriminated against.

Igbo chirstians and igbo Jews please be tolerant for once.

We call on buhari to save us igbo Muslims as intolerant igbo christians and igbo Jews are commiting genocide on us silently.


*In Cynthia 's voice*

How does this change this fact that they have started giving shi shi?

What manner of senseless defense is this?

JUST IN: Lekki Deep Seaport begins operations this Friday ,16 September 2022, to kickstart the dry-run phase while full-scale operations start year ending . Landlocked countries such as Mali, Chad, Niger Republic have shown interest in hauling their cargoes through Nigeria ports

If you are around the Lekki axis go and verify

All thanks to the "Brilliant governor with Brilliant Ideas"

tinubu did absolutely nothing.

He just collects tax.

Some stupid shit you read on nairaland.

Tunji50:
Why do you africans have dirty mind?
It was stated in the news obiano owed it not Peter obi
The love for power,you want to use it to promote war
