SOFTSKILL: I have no issue with what is between them (Abe and Ameachi), Bola Tinubu is free and eminently qualified and has declared for presidency let other people start promoting their candidates, it is pure tribalism when you dont condemn candidates from your tribe but keep having sleepless nights over candidates from other tribes. Even Tinubu antagonists from his tribe are beginning to see your antics
Cool down some of us are not tribalist....My preferred candidate is actually Osinbanjo...
Grayoso: What has my age got to do with the point I am making which is that people like you, if genuinely well-meaning, should be about promoting the candidate you feel can transform Nigeria instead of obsessing only about stopping Tinubu?
If you succeed to turn Nigerians against Tinubu so that a gradualist and conservative Fulani gains power, how are you not self-harming with that outcome?
You guys are always self-destructive anyway so do your thing. A Yoruba will be President of Nigeria in. 2023. 100% assured.
I am not against Yoruba Presidency sir , infact my preferred candidate is Osinbanjo and all we are saying is that Jagaban should support him instead
Beremx: The only problem I have with Tinubu is his age and his health. Apart from that he can be a good president. However, I will choose Osinbajo over him.
20 years and no pipe borne water yet you think he will be a good president.? Okay oo...I remember you making such comments for Buhari in 2014
Pataricatering: seems you like blood so blood is all you see . No government can compare in terms of Infrastructure delivery - NONE ! despite a serious reduction in earnings . Na u sabi the blood wey you dey see . Everyday our tucanos are spitting fire on terrorists and bandits - una no go see that one. .
I dare you to name to so called infrastructure here and please don't mention those two trains ....what do you mean reduced earnings? That is another lie you Buharist manufacturer to deceive gullible NIGERIANs ....In 16 years of PDP the total spend was 45 trillion Naira and in just 7 years your Buhari has spent 55 trillion with absolutely nothing to show than a tatttered economy filled with Poverty and uncertainty

According to FBI indictment document, Tinubu's family had closing balance running into millions late 80s early 90s during agbele's heroin burst
So are you saying he made his money from Narcotics?
An interview with the director-general of the Tinubu Support Management Council, Abdulmumin Jibrin, led to a back and forth as he repeatedly snubbed questions concerning Bola Tinubu’s source of wealth, cash-carrying bullion van and age.
Mr Tinubu, a former Lagos State governor and national leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC), had on Monday formally declared his intention to run for the country’s president in 2023 after months of speculation.
On March 29, 2021, Mr Tinubu celebrated his birthday, and a colloquium was hosted to mark the day. Mr Tinubu’s age is known to be 69.
However, the APC leader’s critics claim he is older than 69.
Source of wealth, bullion van, age While on the morning show of Arise Television, Mr Jibrin, when asked about his principal’s source of wealth and the discrepancies around his age, said “this question you have just asked is part of what I have answered earlier. I think at this point that we have gotten to, our emphasis should be on the pedigree of this candidate..what he has achieved.”
He stressed that the focus should be on the presidential aspirant’s capacity and competence.
Again, he was asked ” how did Bola Tinubu make so much money that he had a bullion van in his home on election day. And how old is he?”
Mr Jibrin in his response said: “When you continue to repeat the question, you will get the same answer. These are all trash from the internet that people put together and we will not elevate such conversation.
“But when the campaign commences, we will bring out facts and figures before Nigerians but we will not create a narrative for them.”
When he was asked again, he questioned the journalist’s professionalism while asking the interviewer to “tolerate his response.”
“I responded, if you don’t like the way I responded to it, you move on,” he said.
Mr Jibrin had earlier during the interview said being a good leader is not a function of age.
“You can be a young man and be a bad leader, a young man well educated and be a bad leader and you can be an old man of 70 years even above and be a very good leader…The most important thing is capacity and competence.”
On the eve of the 2019 general elections, viral pictures on social media showed two bullion vans driving into Mr Tinubu’s residence.
Mr Tinubu later admitted the bullion vans were conveying money to his house, but defended his action, saying he did nothing wrong because he was not a government official.
Corruption allegations Mr Jibrin said: “practically everybody” (Nigerian politicians) have been accused of corruption.
However, the only way to know if a politician is corrupt is when a court judgement has been passed.

He said the corruption charge is not unusual because Mr Tinubu is a “frontrunner.”
At the end of the interview, he was again asked “was there a case of a bullion van or not?
He replied: ”I stand comfortably and strongly on my previous answers to this question.
In October 2020, the former Lagos governor was accused of money laundering, fraud, tax evasion, and sundry corrupt practices by one Dapo Apara, a Nigerian chartered accountant.
OmegaAutos: I think bulk of the problem is the rate and loan tenor How do you expect an interest of 54% to be paid in 7 days, some of these people borrowed expecting funds somewhere (salary or from another debtor of their) and when their expectation get cut short, they start to run kitikiti
seborrhic: Yet u conveniently didn't see the one of 1.3km at ₦430million. Commonsense should tell any person with a brain that there must be features in the other bridge that makes it costlier or the terrain is quite challenging. Asides that,commonsense should again tell anyone with a functioning brain that if the goverment was set out to be brazenly corrupt in the project,it won't have had it posted for public consumption and perusal. Finally,to show the government of Benue State is corrupt,as is your deluded intention,show comparative figures of the budget for construction of similar length of road by the FG and other APC run states.
Don't mind the clown , the Fashola current MOW is today building an average KM for over 2 billion naira
Stop lying Biodun !!!!!! We are in 9 billion debt because your short sighted Buhari breached a valid contract Nigeria had with PID ...if Buhari was a normal human being this case would have been easily solved and Nigeria would have only compensated them for small losses
GetMeRight: If she had stolen that money directly from the Nigeria pulse, it would have been better. She took peanut and put Nigeria in a big mess of huge debt to be paid to a company that never set foot on Nigerian soil. U get brain so?
Nigeria is in huge debt because Buhari revoked a valid contract and nothing else ...you guys stop spinning lies
tujays: APC didn't start Insecurities In Nigeria you numbskull. opposition PDP started all the Insecurities today and Intensified it after losing to APC to discredit them. APC are busy building Infrastructure that PDP only did on papers and maps. APC bought Fighter Jets and a lot of weapons to boost our Military morals. PDP looted all the money meant to buy weapons. Only a fool would think PDP is anything better than APC.
So PDP is behind the bandits yet Buhari has refused to attack them ? ...we all know APC and the bandits are in cahoots
