As already said, the start of APC’s downfall in Lagos state will be as a result of their own implosion.

The glue holding all of them and their hypocrisy together is “Baba Sope”.

Lanretoye:
I never wished you bad,I only said continue…if you sleep blame government,if you don’t sleep blame government.if you are hungry,blame government,if you over feed blame government…in everything you do in life and everything you wish you did,blame government.

Myopia.

Your little minds think everyone that blame the government for their stupid inhumane and business killing policies does not have something doing.

If you think because you’re “doing well” and won’t join others that call the govt out for bad behaviors, think again. That bad gift behavior and policies will catch up and may ruin you one day. Keep it up.

Misterone:
Tinubu never blocked the street to protest

January 2012 fuel subsidy removal in Ojota didn’t cause road blocks?

Superiors that are supposed to do everything in their capacity to ensure their men (soldiers) are safe and well catered for are the ones directing them to work with the enemy that killed many of their brothers in arms.

They tag the enemy “repentant” and put them in their platoons.

It’s either those superiors are dumb or they work indirectly for the enemy.

The economic literates have put the economy in the worst shape since independence.

Surprisingly, there are no external factors influencing this state. It’s all caused by their own economic “literacy”.

Arrogant set of people who won’t accept that they’ve failed even when they know they’re failures.

Nothing like the head controls the tail.
Allocations are sent to your states and down to ur local govt.
All the people in ur local govt speaks same language with u.
If you cant hold your local govt chairman embezzling ur local resources, by the time u have ur own country, it is the same people that will be the head of that country.
If u cant hold then now, i am sorry u cant still hold them accountable when u have ur country

Why should i as a citizen be the one to hold the person that’s the chairman of my local government accountable?

What are the institutions created to do check and balances meant for?

EFCC, ICPC, the state house of assembly, the police etc.

You guys are quick to shift the blame to the people while leaving the ones saddled with the responsibilities aloof.

Una go cry tire, but if I were you Pepu, I will keep preparing and be hopeful that someday, my time will come.

Tinubu till 2031 is a done deal and sealed.

After 2031 what next?

You keep up the cycle of supporting those that ruin the country, your life, life of your family and relatives and lives of the future of this country for peanuts.

If you’re lucky enough, you may get called to the table to dine with them and further keep the cycle of destruction on going.

This isn’t life.

favor914:
Did he go to Victoria island or Ikoyi to go & allocate Federal government land to himself?

Did I mention FG lands?

Deny that Tinubu didn’t convert Lagos state lands and assets to personal and business ownerships while he was governor.

MT:
Makinde is threatening the FG?

He has sold all state lands to real estate developers. He is now eyeing the FG land to be sold.

A place dedicated as children playground (Trans Amusement Park) for years in the heart of the city has been sold to a real estate developer.
Same with Agodi Garden.

Makinde is unhinged.

The man has lost his moral compass, and I wonder the set of people egging him on.

Says a Tinubu supporter.

Do you want to pretend Tinubu didn’t allocate Lagos state government lands to himself and sold some to private organizations while he was governor?

9jatriot:
You do not need to wait, even t=now those who are not blind are already commending it.
Let us start with the development in FCT, there is no week where there is no project being commissioned. Let us look at the exchange rate, before now businesses could not get USD whereas some corrupt people would get USD at the exchange rate and sell at the black market with as much as 100 on top, now, the process for getting USD is transparent; no need to know anybody

Should I continue?
For the first time in its history, the stock market hit an ASI of 150k. Investors are coming back into the country because for the first time they are seeing purposeful leadership.

Or is it the foreign reserve that has hit $45B, the highest in about 5 years? Or the fact that the companies that could not repartriat etheir money can now move their money out.

There now massive investment in roads all over thte country not just the Calabar Lagos coastal road.


IMF, World bank, Nkonjo Iweala, Soludo and every sensible person has said Nigeria is on the right track but because of this thread that exposed lamba king as a failed governor, you want to document your own personal failures as the failures of the nation.
This is Obi's thread, go and defend him also:

You want more

How did all you mentioned improve the life of the average Nigerian on the street?

How has your life improved based off all you posted above?

Answer these questions with all sincerity.

We’ll see the so called reforms after his tenure.

Those that praise him today will curse him tomorrow, that I’m certain of. That’s how they did late Buhari.

seunmsg:
Eeyah, no more free money from government as they use to get during the PDP administration. AriseTV is next.

More like TVC may suffer the same fate in the future when APC loses its grip on Lagos.

epainos:
You have a valid point, but he might not have such influence he has in football because most other clubs may likely not give him a free hand like he had there. If Victor can replicate Maradonna in Turkey, he may go far. Just imagine winning UEFA with his team...he don win best player be that.

Galatasaray can't win the Champions league looking at the big wigs still in the competition. It isn't impossible, but would require a great deal of determination with some level of luck.

epainos:
Na waooo. Okocha was the 10 even when Ronaldinho joined him in PSG, and it's the reason they are very close till date. So, PSG na small clune even inntje 90s? Real Madrid wanted Okocha, but he didn't go. Do you know the reason? What you don't know, don't cho cho cho. Your comment shows you know nothing about football. Just cho cho cho up and down. Kanu went from Ajax (he and Finidi played there and they won Champion league), moved to Inter Milan, and then to Arsenal. Why was Ikpeba called the Prince of Monaco..maybe you need to check the level of Monaco in the 90s. Oliseh played for Juventus. I don't need to tell you about the club if you know football. But this game Osimhen left Napoli...that is the club that made Maradona and he is the big thing after Maradona in the club in their history.

I can go on and on. Take your time..by the way, do you know why Okocha settled for Bolton? You no go know na. Wetin you sabi? Just cho cho cho.. And today's match in Abuja...who do you think moved more of those Barca players? You think say na Kanu. If you sabi football...you will know that the guys coming are Okocha's network. You no sabi how Ronaldo, Ronaldinho, and Roborto Carlos respect Kanu and Okocha.

Take your time ooo..stop cho cho cho..

Napoli made Maradona? How na? It’s the other way around brother.

Maradona’s move to Napoli brought Napoli to the limelight.

Guy was in PDP until 2018.

Not with this present crop of leaders though.

Racoon:
Victor Osinmen for the award abeg.

He can’t win it. Not when Guirassay and Hakimi had better year than him.

Did he install any chiefs or market leaders or monarchs in any parts of Lagos when he made those claims?

The people I pity na the large majority of the “Yoruba” population in Lagos that will suffer from this madness being perpetrated by these APC urchins.

PROPHETmichael:
That ‘ayes’ and ‘nays’ you’re mocking is literally how lawmakers vote across the world, from the UK Parliament in Westminster to US Congress in Washington etc and they’ve been doing it for centuries. It’s called a voice vote (I know the only voicenote that you know is the one on your WhatsApp). Maybe learn the process before labeling it ‘agbero.

Because those ones use voice vote automatically means you must follow them and not do voting in a more efficient manner?

Pls show examples of such voice votes in those parliaments you mentioned.

PROPHETmichael:
The Hallowed Chamber is not a market square. Sen. Natasha should take her time and familiarize herself with the rules and regulations that govern the Nigerian Senate. Proceedings there are guided by order, decorum, and due process, not by emotions or personal sentiments.

Moreover, as for you, before running your mouth next time by engaging with or commenting on the proceedings of the Nigerian Senate, first acquaint yourself with its rules and guiding principles. The Senate functions on logic, debate, and the collective pursuit of national interest not on impulse or noise.

The senate chamber is not a market square yet they vote on issue’s using “ayes” and “nays” chants like agberos?

When was the last time you saw them vote using ballots or numbers?

nairalanda1:
In fairness, assuming he had worked to a level where you would say he done good, it won't stop the accident

Accidents in Nigeria are caused by bad roads, which was not his remit as minister, and they are also caused by bad veichles (which is the fault of the driver not doing a VIO test on their vehicles, and fixing the issues there, plus lack of maintenance)...and bad drivers.

He is or was a Senator.

When you’re in a position to effect positive change that’ll benefit the populace, ensure you do what’s right and not try to make money for yourself and your family only.

Your family may not enjoy that money for the period you think they will.

otipoju:
What was their problem?

They were simply overpowered. Greedy and sellout leaders.

ebubeson:
When it comes to sexual fulfilment in marriage, to what extent are Christian couples allowed to explore sex?

There are certain sexual patterns in marriage that are ungodly. They do not glorify God e.g. anal sex.

Married Christian couples are free to enjoy sex to the fullest, but must be sensitive and watchful in not engaging in abominable sex pattern.

Do you know the kind of sex styles and sexual lifestyle of people of God before Christianity came?

flokii:
It's evident that Yorubas are the best administrators and make the best leaders as far as Nigeria is concerned.. check the 1960s', best universities, first TV Station, first skyscraper (still standing till date) all from Yoruba ingenuity.
Yorubas must reject any false narrative that outsiders developed Lagos.. they developed nothing, instead came to congest and disorganize the once peaceful and serene State. Tell them to go and develop their home region and leave Lagos for Yorubas who own the entirety of Lagos State.

Why did these same “Yorubas” fail to develop Osun, Ekiti, Ondo et al?

Wolexyoshi:
Those wey never step foot in Lagos will tell you Alex of Abia is performing better than Sanwo of Lagos because of hate for Tinubu and APC.

NIGERIANS AND HYPOCRISY ARE INDEED 5&6

How do you people measure divks?

Lagos state has far more money than any other state in this country and should be miles ahead of them all, but that’s not the case.

Lagos shouldn’t be compared to other states in Nigeria given the huge “IGR” and “5th largest economy in Africa” you propagandists say it has.

A one eyed man is king in the land of the blind.

Lagos should be way better than what it is today, but that’s not the reality.

otipoju:
Where were all these powerful gods and goddess when the Caucasians came and conquered the whole of Africa and enslaved its children both at home and abroad.

Were they sleeping or were they powerless or they were too drunk to do anything to protect their children.


If they could not protect it's children from being ravaged back then till the 1960's what makes you think they are strong enough to do anything now

The problem isn’t in the gods they worshipped. It’s the people themselves.

givedemwotowoto:
So remind me again how you linked Obidients to the coup? Were we not all here together before SR and PT surprised all of us? Why has your comment suddenly shifted to accusing Obidients? You undercover Tinubu supporters never disappoint in exposing yourselves.

Obidients are simply telling you the obvious. Like I said in my previous comment, when you do things that destroy democracy, do you need a soothsayer to tell you what will happen next?

What do you think will happen in America if democratic institutions get destroyed the way our politicians are doing in Nigeria? You think there will be peace and Americans will just go about their normal businesses and hope some miracle happens?

They all like being clever by half.

They call this civilian dictatorship, a democracy.

A democracy that the politicians rule the people with iron fist and do not allow them basic human rights. You cannot request for information using the FOI act. You cannot ask ministers questions on how they spend public funds. They’ll tell you you’re a small boy.

It’s better we’re under military rule than this so called democracy where civilians rule instead of govern.

Toruibestate:
Why Military Coup Is Hard in Nigeria


I once asked a recently retired Major General in the Nigerian Army why coups no longer happen easily in Nigeria. He explained that things changed drastically after the attempted coup that nearly claimed the life of former military ruler, Ibrahim Babangida.


According to him, the military intelligence system was completely overhauled after that incident. It became so advanced, sophisticated, and deeply embedded across all security units that planning or executing a coup today is almost impossible without being detected early.


That’s why, since that time, Nigeria hasn’t witnessed a single successful coup.


@Ditari of Ijaw.

The one that took Abacha is what? Coupon?

The same Bello that hailed Buhari for 8 years as God sent?

When you marry a man that sees you as his daughter’s age mate.
