Jking20: I've traveled all these places you're talking about. Infact, Benue state which is almost all Christian too can never deliver Labour party, I can bet on this. When you have the governor and party chairman from the same state and yet you're thinking a baseless and unstructured party can just clinch the votes there without even having house of Reps or House of Assembly there?? You must be a joke. Neither Benue, Taraba, not any Northerner state will deliver PO in the forthcoming elections. Bookmark this!!
There is no basis arguing with you, Taraba will not deliver Peter Obi. haha guy you funny. End if discussion, you win.
Jking20: Very well, so which political parties are in control of the 35% Christan votes?? That's what I mean. In case you got it wrong.
That is why I said you guys should travel more, don't just stay in Lagos or Ogun and read Nigeria newspapers. The entire Northern Christians have never voted for APC at the presidential level. This year they have made it a must to vote for peter Obi.
Look, from Taraba, Gombe, Bauchi, Kaduna, Niger, Pleatuea, Nasarawa, Borno, Adamawa, these states have the highest Christians in the North, Taraba is 90 percent Christians, Pleatuea is 99 percent Christian state, Adamawa is 65 percent Christian, Gombe is 50 percent Christian, Bauchi 30 percent Christian state, Kaduna is 40 percent Christian state, Borno 20 percent Christians, Nasarawa 55 percent Christian.
These people will not vote APC or PDP, infact I was in Taraba last month and I had the opportunity to enter Adamawa, Christians in Adamawa have vowed not to vote for Atiku.
Not that I am against Tinubu and Atiku but if you have been to the North before, and you see hat Christians are passing through them you should know where their votes will go.
In Taraba, they are asking and begging Southeast voters to shun IPOB threats and vote, them carry Obi for head pass Anambra.
diadem10: Says a miscreant. Even Tinubu was saying that the southwest should vote for AC in Lagos but PDP at the federal in 2011.
Heck, it was Obasanjo who brought up Jonathan for VP ticket.
You dey ment.
Yoruba leaders as well as Yorubas supported Jonathan en masse but the clueless Jonathan did nothing in the country apart from looting everywhere, together with the Igbos he surrounded himself with while he was also insulting the Yorubas who did nothing to him. Na ment? He allowed the perpetual Hateful toxic Igbos to poison his mind.
You know my problem with you Yoruba guys, most of you are touts sleeping under bridge with nothing in your skull.
Tinubu who is your God handed ACN ticket to Ribadu in 2011 and campaign for him, reasons why Ribadu won in Osun state, Tinubu home state. if not for wise Yoruba Christians who voted GEJ.
On Gej being corrupt which was the reason Yoruba didn't support him in 2015, maybe you were a kid in Nigeria politics then.
Tinubu was merely angry that Jonathan didn't give him any federal contact and appointment, or even reach out to him on anything, also Tinubu saw a sure was of becoming the president after Buhari, when Northern elders approach him for merger, Northern elders, because Buhari never liked Tinubu from unset, infact Buhari was forced to align with Tinubu.
effort1: Yorubas hate you, yet they accommodate you in Lagos and other parts of southwest. If yoeubas are haters, they would never allow you to settle down in their region. They would have killed you like fulanis and Burned down your businesses. Stop talking like a blind idiot.
You people claim to br educated, but truely Yoruba people are the most dumb tribe I have seen, even Hausa don't brag about accommodating Igbo's.
You have no right to stop anybody from residing in any part of this country, atleast your Constitution made that possible. Igbo's go to your state, buy land and build houses there, you didn't give them free.
This same Igbo's have begged you to break this country so that everyone will go their separate ways, still you refused. The problem with you folks is that you don't travel, come to Onitsha, ABA and Nnewi and see Yoruba people scattered everywhere.
Only an individual filled with hate will brag about accommodating someone in his state Asif you gave them house for free.
effort1: An Igbo man attracts hatred to himself because of his propensity to boast and beat chest.
When you make the discussion all about yourself and your make belief achievements, you are automatically making enemies for yourself.
Do you know that Igbos were the major Nigerians attacked in South Africa years past?
The Igbo man himself is a hater. So, you will only attract hatred when you hate others
But you cheer Americans when they chest beat, the truth is that the Igbo man is blessed, whether you like it or not. I think the present Nigeria Economic meltdown should make you understand, while the Yorubas turned online beggers, Hausa/Fulani turned Street beggers, Igbos were waxing stronger, feeding their families.
Jking20: Let's not be fooled. We already know why Northerners are doin this, but the fact is that half of the northerners votes belongs to APC and the other to PDP. Any Northerner shouting Labour is just chasing clout. Know this and know Peace.
One thing about you people in southwest is that you have zero of the North, when you talk about North please try and categories it.
North vote is divided in two.
65 percent Muslim votes 35 percent Christian votes.
Now when you talk about North vote, try and know this.
MadeInTokyo: The same thing we have been telling Tinubu South West zombies who still think Tinubu will win Atiku in the North. There is no Buhari on the ballot this time around. The most popular Northern politician after Buhari right now is undisputably Atiku. Shettimma a minority Kanuri man only sphere of political influence in the North is just in the Kanuri dominated states of Borno and Yobe and not in the majority Fulani dominated Northern states. The North is not energized by Tinubu candidacy . The Tsunami of defections from APC to PDP across Northern states begins in September when campaign officially opens.
Kwankwaso is more popular than Atiku in the North.
TheGidRedpiller: Not just your problems per say, its just very wise to never share any of your personal informations with females in general, you might be thinking that you are letting out your heart to feel a little ease or whatever, but what you are really just doing is empowering her with dangerous weapons that she can use to tear you clean into shreds when the time is right!
The funny thing is that, this is another advantage that guy that fvvcks your girl behind your back has over you. Alphamales never let biittches into their private lives, now the girl in question is always trying to get a glimpse of what he is all about, partly because he is interesting and because she just can't be unharmed just in case. But of course he is not giving in so she tries even harder, the more she tries, the more her hole gets stretched. The other guy uses this to keep her on her toes while you just fund the whole process! STAY WOKE!
TRP IS GOLDEN!!
In the case where you have told your girlfriend much information about you, and alot of 'see finish' and she loses respect for you.
Arelyn: Credit facilities such as Mortgages, Car loans, personal loans, Educational loans etc are certainly the way to go to attain luxury in most developed countries everyone wants to "Japa" to.....Availability of both soft loans and hard loans will reduce dependence on bulky cash transactions; a precursor for corruption) which means individuals only need to find a regular and steady means of paying back a predetermined amount then other secondary needs can be achieved with ease
You can try to deny it but a large number of Nigerians in the diaspora who have a house to themselves today or will buy in future can only achieve it through a mortgage and you don't need to be in the most glamorous of all jobs to own a home in most of these countries because individuals are means-tested before loans are handed to them and such loans are protected with different forms of insurance ( mortgage insurance, life assurance, income protection insurance etc.)
He has a genuine point and liberals like me love to hear alternative solutions to the status quo and not the normal shenanigans our politicians dish out to appeal to emotions. I guess this submission and the widening of the tax bracket are different ideas that are not common for politicians to come up with...
The things you listed their are so sweet and talk God you said in a developed economy, Nigeria is an underdeveloped country, making loans available for civil servants shouldn't be their priority.
In growth models, there are stages of Economic growth, Nigeria have not reached that stage. What we need now is loans for SMEs and other manufacturers that will boost the economy and create more Jobs, when we leave the stage of take off to stage of mass consumption, then we can talk about credit facilities for civil servants.
[quote author=Kingspin post=115208695]If this is not upside down lecture.
Lack of access to credit leads to corruption. ..Are you seeing what I am sawing?
[/quote
I am asking the same question, credit facilities to who, because he talked about corruption, credit facilities to civil servants?
This man will be worst than Buhari, when we have SMEs and other businesses that need credit, he is talking about giving loan to civil servants to buy cars and build houses.
HoluwaLoniGlory: I stroll out today, I decide to buy banana. the banana is N900.
Why ma? I humbly asked.
"banana is now costly ooo" she respond
But I bought this same size of banana at N300 last year in camp. she said that is last year.
Then, I decide to buy corn from a next woman.
ma how much is your corn I asked. N250, she answered.
what last year #50 corn. she responded that it's like your not in this country
In the end, I had to spend extra N150 on corn.
This is definitely not sustainable. Abeg, how much is my monthly allowance that I’ll be spending that much on corn?
I am seriously worried for how things are going in this country, especially when it comes to food.
Within the last one year, my monthly budget for food has tripled even with how; meanwhile the quantity has even reduced over time.
Most of my budget is on feeding and transportation. that I could not buy any materials things for my self.
Earlier last week, I wanted to get bread but there was no bread at all. The gist was that bakers are on strike, and it’s connected with their rising cost of production.
If it’s a miracle that we are managing to eat daily, what then is the hope for the majority of Nigerians who live below the poverty level?
With this crazy inflation, high cost of living, rising fuel cost, forex palaver, among other issues, Nigerians might just need to brace up for another recession and at the most unfortunate time.
Salary week is here but don’t get excited. In fact, don’t be surprised if you can no longer afford certain basic things you used to buy in the nearby supermarket.
Don’t get mad, it’s not their fault.
I was asking my friend on whatsap what the "government can possibly do to help". then I got the shocking information that a certain government agency (Nigeria Customs Service) is partly, directly responsible for how things especially food products have become so expensive in this country! �
This government agency is heaping misery on Nigerians through arbitrary duty charges on importers bringing in food commodities, which then affects the cost of finished goods and food prices that we all suffer. ��
but for now I need to ask: how are you surviving?
You are the problem, you went to buy something from market women with your Nysc khaki on. They just inflated the price because you are on khaki. Government pikin.
When I served, I act like I am from their state, so I buy things normal price.
donaldking100: These are the places labour party needs to campaign. Obi should just forget South-South & South-East, because we are already on lock-down with our bloc votes for him.
Obi should forget Taraba, if it is this same Taraba I left last Month, it is 90 percent Obidient.
Auchi Poly student declared wanted after allegedly killing her boyfriend over infidelity.
Favour, a student of Auchi polytechnic Edo state is currently on the run after allegedly stabbing her boyfriend to death.
It was gathered that the incident happened at their residence in Auchi on saturday july 23rd when the suspect found out that her boyfriend, Jigga was cheating on her. A source reports that Favour in anger, used a knife to send the victim to the great beyond.
She fled after committing the act and a manhunt has been launched for her. Favour is hearthless because she had a son for another man and Jigga decided to take care of her and the child. Its heartbreaking this is how she decided to pay him back just because of a mere allegation" a source said.
Infidelity kwa? did he marry her, all these youths with misplaced priorities.
Advocate500: pipe dream, in rivers state here is about party not individual,the moment wike decide to support Tinubu in rivers, will be the end of his political relevance.
We don't do cult followership here river state, we are independent thinkers.
These Tinubu urchins think every region is like their own, where one retired thief tells them who to vote for.
We saw what happened in the East, a. individual can't influence the masses vote.
Penguin2: Got into argument with a Tinubu supporter who dubiously said that one day Igbos will start supporting Ikpeazu for presidency because he’s Igbo.
And I reminded him that 16 years after Orji Uzor Kalu finished as Abia Governor, Igbos never cease to lambast him whenever they can because we believe he failed in Abia. That’s why we didn’t lose sleep when he was jailed.
7 years after his time as Imo governor, Igbos form the greatest critics of Okorocha . Because he failed in Imo. Reason we didn’t lose sleep when EFCC was manhandling him.
7 years after his time as Abia Governor, Theodore Orji cannot show his face in public because Igbos will eat him raw.
In 2015, Ikpeazu lost Abia but Theodore Orji used his influence as former INEC Commissioner to get him declared and that was how Alex Otti was denied his mandate.
7 years into his time as governor of Abia and Igbos are the fiercest critics of Ikpeazu.
Willie Obiano, despite his sterling performance in Anambra, when compared to other governors in Nigeria, was never spared of constant criticism by Ndi Anambra and Igbos in general because we believed his performance was below par when compared to the performance of the man he succeeded.
Governor Ugwuanyi of Enugu state, despite his humane nature, prompt payment of salary, not plunging the state into debts, still dey collect am woto woto for our hand. In fact some of us call him “Madam Ugwuanyi” because we believe his performance is below par.
Talking about Hope Uzodimma of Imo State would be an overkill.
But not so with most of our Yoruba brothers .
Despite Aregbesola plunging Osun state into the worst economic crisis ever suffered by any state in Nigeria, these people still supported and defended him.
Despite Dapo Dagboru of Ogun State practically doing nothing for over 3 years now, they still support him.
Despite Tinubu’s many glaring atrocities, he’s their lord and saviour.
The only time they hate you is if you go against Tinubu like they hated Fashola, still hates Ambode and Osinbajo for daring to go against Tinubu.
So, which Yoruba politicians do Yorubas genuinely hate for being inept or for being corrupt?
