Vision101: Calamitous failure commissioning world class project completed by his regime. Are you for real?
Yea, a pocketful of projects commissioned here and there when compared to the amount Govt. realises from subsidy removal and the never ending loans received and still applying for, clearly shows the abysmal failure here. Needless to mention the economic hardship, my friend.
gr8ofnnetwork: Face your trial sir, Mr Hacker/tapper of NSA communications. Evil people that love insecurity of these nations. The carnages in the North give them joy and enhances their quadrennial electoral bargaining
Amidst whatever name you choose to call him now, don't forget he helped your political lord and saviour to get into Aso rock few years back. If for nothing else, atleast, you should give some gratitude to him for that show of shame at the Chatham house wayback.
Now, what we need more is National stability ahead ahead of political stability or what not. Yes, the country needs economic recovery from what the APC govt has seriously bastardized with consistent failed reforms.
ayoolataiwo: In as much as civilian casualties is highly regretted,these politicians should not politicize these unfortunate incident.The attack was carried out after thorough intelligence and surveillance.The market is a hub of BHT and folks alike,,it was using as a logistics market for their evil operations.So Waziri shut the heck
It's sad to say... but that's exactly same thing Asiwaju did to get to power... even more.
seunowa: Bala that can't express himself very well. How did he say it? I don't blame him, Atiku played into his hands because of greed and desperation. This is what ruling party saw and quickly made use of it. This is what is called politic 101.
This is not politics 101. It rather shows how dull and desperate the suppose master strategist is.
Putindbutt: Dey play... Maintaining David Mark who was not on INEC'S list as at when Bala approached the court. The court of appeal had given its order to INEC and INEC had reversed to where it was before the suit.
Better tell your oga dem to enter court and stop using your head.
You can't rewrite what has been... The INEC recognised Mark as National Chairman after the take-over before Bala approached the court.
Obi may not exactly fix it in 4 years, but he will surely fix it better than the 8 lifeless plus 4 disastrous failing years of the APC put together. Believe me.
The APC, Escobar and his goons are indeed a calamity, sorry I mean an irreparable disaster and we are all victims.
OBJ said and I quote... "The first lesson I learnt in the military training is: Never reinforce failure." Now, imagine this calamitous failure want to go again ?
dryakson: How Iran has managed to remain operational and continue retaliating despite facing Israel and the United States simultaneously is a geopolitical case study that universities should analyze

treesun: Former Vice-President Atiku Abubakar, presidential aspirant of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), has declared his readiness to support whoever emerges as the party’s flagbearer in the 2027 presidential election.
Atiku also dismissed claims that the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) could undermine the ADC, noting that the party has continued to attract members nationwide.
The INEC had, on Wednesday, said it would cease further communication with all the leadership of the ADC and would not monitor the national convention of party slated for April 14.
The electoral body based its action on a court ruling, but the ADC, however, rejected the move, accusing INEC of wrongly interpreting the ruling.
Fresh killings in Plateau after Tinubu’s visit Suspected ISWAP Recruit Arrested in Kwara It also vowed to go ahead with its planned convention and other party activities.
Speaking in an interview with DW Hausa, Atiku alleged that vested interests were behind the party’s current situation, noting that its growing popularity had made it a target.
On the party’s presidential ticket, Atiku said he would stand firmly behind whoever emerges through the process.
“We will support and endorse whoever emerges as the flag bearer. How many are we (presidential aspirants), three or four? In the PDP, more than ten of us contested,” he said.
The former Vice President stressed the ADC is youth-friendly, noting that the party remains committed to youth and women inclusion.
“The youths have taken over the party. Most of those seeking elective positions, from councillor to state assembly, national assembly and House of Representatives, are young people. We have always said our party belongs to youths and women. Our role is to create the opportunity and hand it over to them,” he said.
Asked if he could support a youth a presidential candidate should the party field one, Atiku said, “Yes, why not,”
“Allah has done everything for me. I have brought my sons and grandchildren home. What will be their future and that of their children?” he said.
He expressed confidence that Nigerians were ready for change, citing worsening economic and security conditions.
“We are confident that Nigerians are yearning for change. They are ready for it. They are being pushed to the wall and are prepared to do even more than they did in the previous elections,” he said.
The former Vice President linked rising insecurity, particularly in the North, to youth unemployment and poor access to education.
“Insecurity is more severe in the northern states, largely due to youth unemployment and lack of access to education. When you go round the region, you see that education is not receiving the attention it deserves. It has been relegated.
“Governments have not ensured that children enrol in school, and even when they graduate, there are no jobs or business opportunities. I have never witnessed a period like this in Nigeria,” he said.
Atiku further accused the government of tolerating corruption.
“There is also embezzlement on the part of government and corruption is rampant. The government has turned a blind eye because it is involved,” he said.
His words... “Allah has done everything for me. I have brought my sons and grandchildren home. What will be their future and that of their children?” That's a statement from a true elder stateman. Jagaban should learn "everything no be ti'pa ti'kuku force."
Raf4: Destabilising your opponents is one of the greatest strategies, you know.
Yea agreed. But not stemming from recruiting and funding internal conflict. He should outsmart them with policies and moves that gets the Nation forward and the people happy. I understand you can't please everybody, but atleast go some extent. I mean many people are barely surviving this political tenure.
Putindbutt: Now, look at Seriake Dickson who founded his own party, he can do whatever he likes with his party. Someone who has a functioning common sense to know that founding his own political party is far better than hijacking other people's party like a common thief.
Those structure of criminality that hijacked ADC, look at all of them, despite their experiences and status, they can't form a new party?
What a shame!, Bunch of desperados, coalition of failures, pained losers, vultures and hyenas.
We understand Wike is the one doing this hatchet Job. It's easy to see considering the patterns. But, just as there's no wave of adversity that doesn't come to an end, so is the Wiked will not go unpunished sooner or later.
seunmsg: This is the best part of Keyamo’s submission. Sadly, ADC’s response so far doesn’t show any seriousness. They want to remain on the path of illegality by trying to blackmail INEC and Mr. President. Sadly, it won’t work.
If they want to be on the ballot, they better find a way to settle with Bala Gombe or move out of ADC to a new party that has no legal encumbrances.
Bala Gombe is a pure thief and there's nothing to be settled with him.
We've seen a circulating video of him smiling sheepishly while present at the hand over of power to the David Mark led team, with the INEC team also present, so what's the fuss.. ? Despite the braggadio behaviour, it's very glaring BAT is a coward after all, cuz why fear a fare contest this much ?
Politicstoday: The Lagos State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has formally declared the 2027 governorship race open to all qualified members, signaling a potentially wide-open contest in the race to get a credible candidate to succeed the incumbent governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu.
It added that the candidate for the party would emerge through direct primaries, while also allowing for consensus arrangements where broadly accepted.
The Lagos APC Chairman, Cornelius Ojelabi, disclosed this on Thursday through a statement published on his social media handle.
“Our primaries are for all members,” Ojelabi stated, emphasizing that no aspirant has been endorsed for any position.
“All available positions are open for contest as the party has no anointed candidate for any seat.”
The declaration effectively throws the Lagos governorship race wide open ahead of the 2027 general elections, marking a shift from previous cycles often characterized by strong party influence in candidate emergence.
According to the chairman, the party will prioritize direct primaries in line with provisions of the 2026 Electoral Act, allowing registered members to participate directly in the selection of candidates.
However, he noted that consensus candidacies would still be considered, provided they emerge through voluntary agreement among stakeholders.
As gathered, this dual approach could intensify internal competition while preserving room for negotiation among influential blocs within the party.
Ojelabi, meanwhile, stressed that aspirants would bear the financial responsibility of their ambition, stressing that nomination and administrative fees will not be refunded under any circumstances.
Despite this, he assured members of a transparent and fair process, saying we will give all members a level-playing field to contest… in a free, fair and transparent manner.
In a notable move, the party leadership pledged “special consideration” for female aspirants, aligning with broader calls for gender inclusion in Nigerian politics.
Sources said that this could see increased participation of women in both legislative and executive contests across the state.
As the party awaits detailed guidelines from its national leadership, members have been urged to maintain decorum and unity.
“We will not engage in imposition of candidates and neither will we influence the outcome of the primaries,” Ojelabi added, reinforcing the party’s commitment to internal democracy.
Mynd44: Anyone will be happy about this except if the developer didn't tell you or your larger family about it and just went to bribe your youngest brother who took the money and then forged all your signatures.
It will be worse if your family is doing well and the family's so called "wretched mud house" is only there for sentimental reasons as it hold a lot of history and memories. Some people don't worship wealth or glory, they just want peace.
I can bet you never knew there's a political party called ADC until the defections... or better still, the least you recognised was Sowore's party.
Ofunaofu: He was suspended for anti-party activities.
Would the APC tolerate an elected member on its platform openly supporting a candidate from another party?
What you, APC and other APC supporters won’t tolerate, you expect other parties to accept so long as it benefits Tinubu. That’s exactly what’s playing out in the PDP today and have led to it's death
It doesn’t matter when David Mark and others joined, freedom of association is a constitutional right. After all, aren’t governors and elected officials from other parties defecting to the APC even now? So why should it be a problem when people move in the opposite direction?

Poor Northerners... the background looks like they're still in the Dinosaur ages, despite the enormous resources received by their elites. Peeps like Bashir Ahmad don't talk about this stone age.... What a pity.
It's obvious, the APC is sowing a wind of impunity against the opposition, well, they will surely reap a whirlwind.
Now, they and their paid idiots on social media try to give the rest of us 1001 excuses and needless explanations on why it shouldn't cost lesser than N1600, within just 11years of their ruling.

Obapluto: He should come to Apc.. ADC odd na 10000.05 vs Jagaban 1.0
Use your head
Didn't you join to say he was a thief with no electoral value yesterday, while romancing with the idea of joining the ADC ? Walahi, you know this APC 30k guys really are something else.
They got no choice, as dem observe say Bibi dey deliver on all him promise to the terrorist. The two baba's dey show workings, no be cho cho cho... 🇺🇸🇮🇱
jahsharon: If the North likes, it can continue reducing its population. The Chief of Army Staff is from the Middle Belt, the Minister of Defence is also a recently retired Major General and a Christian from Southern Kaduna, if they cannot stop the bandits, then let them continue killing themselves. Tinubu will not carry juju and hunters guns to go and fight battles
Then let him resign like he told GEJ, and allow more competent hand to manage the affairs of the Nation.
yemre: Do well to substantiate the greedy and cunny claims! Someone, a politician has an ambition, has done well for his state and himself, advances towards his ambition by ensuring that a preferred candidate, who's supposed to be loyal to him succeeds him as a governor, and given a plum ministerial position by the sitting president as a result of his antecedents as a loyal and outstanding political office holder.
Now, he's stayed loyal and even sustained his party, funded it and ensuring it never goes into oblivion despite the invitation to work for the government controlled by another party. Don't you know it would give him more powers?
Whether anyone likes it or not, Wike is the most powerful politician in the PDP today. By the virtue of his romance with the APC government, he holds an enormous power in the control of the APC in Rivers, even despite the sitting governor claiming the 001.
I know the obidients, who emerged as the emergency lovers of the sitting governor would not like my analysis but the fact remains the truth is bitter.
You write well, and have good reasoning. However, do not forget that Wike's power in PDP is because he has full control only because key stakeholders left the party for him. When the chicken come home to roost, then you will see his limited power, but until then the current PDP remains a joke party.
