I have not really followed the former Governor's saga though I saw the picture in circulation.

What I struggle to understand though is why Mr Oshiomole's massaging a lady's foot amounts to 'taking the citizens for granted' according to you.

You mean a Senator can't have a girlfriend? I just don't understand what the big issue is. Do you know how many politicians, Governors, lecturers, doctors, religious leaders, community leaders, and humans generally are doing something personal with the opposite sex all over the country, and indeed all over the world as I type here. That a picture of them doing so is not in the public domain doesn't mean it is not happening.

Do you even know if Mr Oshiomole has a wife.

It was an amusing photograph. Nothing more.

This one tries to sound smart.

The mistake people often make is thinking these politicians give a damn about the people or tribe. They don’t.

They play ethnic cards when they need votes and leave the people to their fates.

Just see what you’re celebrating?

Barack Obama as president went to Starbucks to get coffee, mingle with everyday people.

Buhari as he worse reach, walked in his hometown from the mosque to his house with people lined up by the road sides cheering him on.

Why should you still be in communication with an ex in the first place?

They’re only following the footsteps of those LAWMA workers in uniform dumping refuse from a bridge into the water body.

Guess what the commissioner for water resources and environment said when asked how they were prosecuted? He said it’s internal affairs.

All these MCs and not facing the job they were engaged to do.

Tinubu nicknamed PDP Poverty Development Party when PDP was at the federal level. Poverty in Nigeria wasn’t as much as we have it now.

Here’s an 80 year old social media adviser writing gibberish and blaming the states and local governments.

If una die well, una no go rest well. No be curse, na una handwork cause am.

Put yourself in the shoes of Nigeria's president. An Islamist insurgency has been smoldering in northern Nigeria since 2009, erupting into spot-fire flames of terrorist massacre spreading from the north due south over more than a decade before you were elected as the Nigerian Head of State.

Over a lifetime you have forged solid ties to the Nigerian military's top echelon, that paid off when a coup poised to claim your very life was reported and preempted. In response to the coup plot you overhauled the Nigerian military top command to remove the moles and Islamist traitors disguised as top brass. With new service heads in place, your administration collaborated with international partners to repulse the Islamist invasion that has now grown into a clash of conventional military forces that MUST be tamped out swiftly. Oh, Nigeria will get by with a little help from her friends, of whom Uncle Sam bears honorable mention.

If you can imagine yourself as a head of state who has done all that he can to revamp the military for the task at hand, while reaching out to The USA and other Western democracies for military assistance as a wiser alternative than blundering into any alliances that might be proposed by China or Russia, then now think how you would feel if your name and your political party's name are parroted and berated following every single attack launched by Islamist guerilla forces in Nigeria.

If you couldn't be bothered to read my hypothetical musings, the upshot of my rambling is that guerrilla warfare and Asymmetric Warfare in the newly dawning Drone Age, are inherently unpredictable and prone to confounding the expectations of even the most technologically informed military intelligence analysts in existence.

Thanks be to Great Almighty God, American military boots are on the ground in Nigeria, meaning the tide will visibly turn against the Islamist hordes swarming the Nigerian hinterland, in a manner that will please even the most jaded critic of Nigeria's President Bola Tinubu, the nation's diplomat-in-chief known for his eloquence of few words, each imbued with hard-earned wisdom.

Did the president put himself in Goodluck Jonathan’s shoes before calling him clueless when he was in the opposition?

Stop making excuses for failures.

$9 million don enter evil forest.

Instead na more fire dem put for Bulaba yansh.

Pikin wey say him mama no go sleep, him sef go observe vigil.

His arrogant counterpart is forming King in Chicken.

LOL.

We love money too much in this country.

These sort of people need not be taken seriously.

A teenager that has lived in affluence and abundance all his life in a particular area of a state in a country cannot relate to the ordeals of his age mate born in the extreme opposite of his situation.

Just let him speak. It’s ignorance.

Biodun556:
Why should US send F35, a 100 million dollars fighter jet to shoot down a drone less than 20,000 dollars with missiles close to 1 million dollars?


If US has to send f35 to defend the aircraft carriers, it means sworm of Iran drones will render the ship useless.

To kill a snake, cut its head.

It’s easier to shoot down the drone that waste precious time and resources in using air defense systems that aren’t 100% accurate.

BikoMERCYme:
DANGOTE PLC nkor?
Abi dat nah govt company??

Private companies are companies that their stocks are not traded publicly. It doesn’t mean it’s govt owned.

LOL.

What have the majority of Nigerians benefited from the “rare earth metals” you alleged the Chinese are already mining?

The fact is an average Nigerian doesn’t give a hoot if the USA annexes Nigeria. What most are after is good governance.

Burob:
Simple u must understand the trajectory of Nigerian politics, also its history, the north will never vote out a sitting Yoruba Muslim president from the South West with 4 years left in power, to replace him with a Christian Igbo desperado wannabe president from the South East who will spend 8 years as president, it will never happen.

You all should stop deceiving yourselves & accept the reality of Nigeria’s political landscape.

2023 was the only chance Obi representing the Igbo tribe had, sorry he missed the train.

Well, there has never been a Yoruba Muslim president before Tinubu. So your “The North will never vote out a Yoruba Muslim” line is invalid.

Let’s all wait and see how 2027 will go. It’s around the corner already.

CrownedPhoenix:
I think the spider, Black Widow.

A black widow actually kills its mate after mating.

Some specie of snakes.

Some centipedes. The offspring eat the mother.

Dem don scam you. Did they issue a ticket to you?

LOL.

So much for brothers

They do not even have a website.

We leave basics things unattended to and start chasing advanced tasks.

Solve the basic problem first and leave all these bigger things for when the foundations are laid.


If it’s not that you guys plan to loot, tell me why Nigeria should be taking of bully trains when like some said above we are yet to solve electricity (a core component in such method of transportation), medical, road etc.

Sanwo Olu is just following the footsteps of his godfather as the second worst governor since 1999.

All Fashola and Ambode achievements as governors in Lagos state in terms of sanity have gone down the gutter by Pontius Pilate.

BRT buses are now driven by Danfo Drivers. That’s why we’ve seen more BRT buses in accidents during this regime than any before it.

All he does is go to parties, fly to Abuja, wear expensive wristwatches and wave at the plane of his godfather when he’s jetting out of the country and fly to the country his godfather is headed to receive him.

Worst governor I’ve seen in Lagos state since I was born.

They’re already laying false foundations of lies on how if eventually Nigeria gets it or starts getting it right at some point to the so called “deforms” of Tinubu.

Same way they attributed the achievements of both present and past governors of Lagos state to him tagging him the so called builder.

An exorcist and a pastor are two different persons with different responsibilities.

Stop the misleading headlines.

This looks like normal classrooms to me.

At least 8 yoruba clans have Ancient Ancestral Territories in lagos State
Complete with their own Traditional Rulers
Awori with the most population,Ijebu , Ilaje,Egba,Egbado,oyo,Owu,ketu,, and in Badagry the Egun.

Every one of them arrived long before Gbadebo Rhodes ex-Enslaved returnee Ancestors

If we tell them a little of the History of yoruba lagos if they have Conscience they will Shut up and beg for Forgiveness

There were Yorubas in lagos long before Oduduwa was born

When 1st ijesha king was sent to moba, lagos to fetch Oduduwa sea Water in 10th Century
,he met 5th ijebu king on Throne!! Yes
1,2,3,4,5th ijebu king in the 10th Century O !!!

Lekki in lagos is Ijebuland!!!!
And Moba is right next to Lekki !!

The ijebu king gave him the guides to take him to moba
after he had previously lost his way to moba at Okun Ajah all in today’s lagos !!
Moba itself had had more than 10 kings already ( In the 10 th Century 0!!)

The Igbore clan of the Egba also has moba Ancestors who were still living on
lagos Lagoon until the early 18th Century when power drunk Af0nja at Ilorin created big big problems
For entire Yorubaland that sent everyone fleeing to the Mountains and to the Rocks for Refuge
That was how they ended up in Abeokuta

The deity that Traditional Worshippers call Olokun was a pre 10th Century King of Moba called Seniade

The first ijesha king spent 2 months at moba near ikoyi lagos
The Otun Ekiti are descended from the moba people of lagos
and Oore Otun Ekiti is directly descended from the moba kings

That is why the ijesha Kings till today have the Title “Owa Obokun” ( He came back after fetching Sea Water)

That Sea Water was fetched at Moba on the Lekki Peninsula and was carried
to Oduduwa at Ile Ife
Yes!!!

Don’t drag people’s God given Ancient Ancestral Heritage it is offensive
Even God Almighty will fight you back

The word “Yoruba” originated from the Fulani word Yoruba in the 16th century. Yoruba was used to refer to the people of Oyo by the Fulanis.

Oduduwa myth was before 16th century and Oduduwa was father to the very first Alaafin who lords over Oyo town.

madridguy:
This is a welcome development. Alberta should break away from Canada and anyone who opposes Trump should be sanction.

I support President Trump to take over Alberta.

I stand with Trump to take over Greenland.

Here you and your lots say it’s one Nijeriya or nothing. But you can support succession in far away Canada.

Talk of hypocrisy.

Lanretoye:
no light in your own house,don’t say no light in Nigeria.for almost 2 years now I have not had less than 20/22 hrs of electricity daily.

Tell us the area where you enjoy such electricity supply.

Any new government that comes in after this Tinubu’s will most likely revisit so many of the policies of this present administration.

By the time integrity will return to Nigeria and men start to value honors, Omokri’s offsprings will be so ashamed of their father.
