PMB and Masari lost Katsina. That is ok.BAT and Sanwo Olu lost Lagos that is perfect. Adamu and Sule lost Nassarawa that is good. El Rufai lost Kaduna, Ganduje lost Kano, Badaru lost Kebbi, Mala Buni lost Yobe, Inuwa lost Gombe, Lalong lost Plateau, Ayade lost Cross River.

If after all these, you still believed this election is rigged. You need to work on your spiritual life.

If it's not clear to you that the election was rigged, there's really no spiritual or scientific remedy for you.

Politics / Re: Anambrarians Please Am I Making The Right Choice By Voting For Obi? by somegirl1: 7:46am On Feb 10, 2023
Afamed:


I am here to give you a clue.

I have visited Anambra more than 400 TIMES.

I have visited Lagos more than 400 times.

I have visited Adamawa too less than 95 times.

When an employer of labour wants to employ , they look at your records and antecedents in your previous place of work.

Both Obi and Tinubu were Govs

To drive my points, if you have visited Lagos before or you reside in lagos,
Those amenities you enjoy in lagos, BRT, BLUE LINE TRAIN, JETTY BOATS. FLY OVERS HERE AND THERE.

Nothing of such in Anambra. Tinubu achievements are not the same with Obi.

Obi has nothing to show.

Do not allow anyone to deceive you.
Obi is just a repackage fraud


This is a rather rudimentary analysis.
Different areas need different amenities.
London has the underground transport system because it is a necessity there whereas Aberdeen doesn't. Both cities are developed.
Toronto has had a metro system for decadess, whereas Ottawa got a functional short distance light rail system more recently. London, Ontario does not have a rail system. All these cities are developed. Their premiers invest in what is needed, when it is needed.
Obi is not frivolous. If he were he'd have built the Anambra airport, which Obiano did with Obi's savings, and taken credit for it.
Besides Tinubu did not construct any of these things you mentioned. Lagos is overcrowded, so needs even more modes of transport and bridges to connect the mainland and island. These are not luxuries to be "enjoyed", they're necessities.
Awka is not overcrowded so does not need as many modes of transportation; rather it needs good road network, which it has.

Professor Utomi answered the question but Peter Obi went on to give a very lengthy and relevant response as well. Certainly nothing like the Tinubu’s show of shame at Chatham House.

TheNiceGuy:
Fraudsters.

How does the two weeks courses helped in lifting Anambrarian from poverty when he was Governor?

If studying economy is a yardstick for greater performance, Nigeria wouldn't have gone into recession when Okonjo Iweala was finance minister.


Is04970:
Obi can only defend his GCE.
Those listed courses aren't degrees.

Keep revealing your ignorance. I have 2 degrees (currently) from UK universities - a bachelors and a masters. I also have 10 certificates, some of which I obtained after just 1 week of intense study; others I achieved after months of study.
These certifications, not my degrees, have equipped me with the knowledge and skills I've used to secure and perform excellently in my roles in the past 8 years.

Travel / Re: Japa Story: The Cost Of Relocating To The UK With Family by somegirl1: 10:18am On Dec 01, 2022
QuinModah:
Last Friday, I hugged one of my most impressive colleagues goodbye. He turned away, sobbing. I turned away with voice quaking, realizing what a big loss he would be.

Later that evening, I had another get-together with a second friend who relocates this week. While discussing his massive expense, he suddenly slouched in his chair, stressfully squeezed the empty ragolis bottle in his hands and concluded:

"Oremi, this relocation has cost me almost everything"
"You don’t want to know!" He further sighed "You don’t."

Today, with the help and data from three (3) relocating friends, I compile the rough cost (below) for prospective relocating families (focus on UK) and a poem for my friend and Nigeria:

[font=Serif]Cost of Japa from Nigeria for a family of 4= 180k
Renewal of Passport
Official rate 22k
Accelerated rate 45k
Some pay as high as 75k

Transcript 75k
Usually, one parent is a student
30-45k for school runs
25-30k to send

Estimated Tuition fee deposit
11,000-18,000-pound sterling
4.5m most schools want 50% deposit


Proof of fund (In deposit)
Family of 4 need 25m in deposited in an accoun 2-3 months

UK Visa 1.4m
Family of 4 pay 475-pound sterling

NHF
Family of 4 pay 875-pound sterling

Flight ticket 2.8m
Depending on booking
700k person x4
Some have booked as high as 1.2m

Arrival Accommodation 4.4m
1st Month shortlet 200-pound sterling per week
refundable deposit of 250 pound
First 6 months at 750 pounds



At around 900NGN to GBP, fees are closer to 9million to 16 million for tuiition only.

Also, you'd struggle to find short term accommodation at 200GBP per week, unless you were looking for a room rental. Unsure how a family of 4 would squeeze into 1 room in a shared home. Cost of accommodation in the UK has skyrocketed in the past year.

Those of us who have firsthand experience of working systems will vote leaders, not dictators, who hold their employees, the citizens, in high enough regard.

Peter Obi represents everything Nigeria doesn't need right now.

We don't want people that cares about the citizens approval.

We don't want someone that listens to Nigerians complains and wailing.

We need someone that will only do what is right to him.


Atiku is coming

I really hope you're being sarcastic.
You've described a dictator not a leader. Definitely not whom Nigeria needs at any time.

SIRTee15:


That's the problem. The quantity of beautiful women among naija girls is too low. Of course, there will be premium of the few attractive ones.

Actually there are many beautiful Nigerian women but beautiful is not necessarily "attractive"; likewise, attractive is not necessarily beautiful.

Nigerian girls are attractive,it’s just that majority of them are beggars
I meet a girl recently,now she wants phone,Christmas cloth and make her hair

I ask her why does she expect too much from me,she said her dad and Mum are poor
You want me to spend the money that your daddy can’t spend on you
see talk

There are many Nigerian women who aren't materialistic but you'll probably not find them attractive enough to approach.

She might see you as a means to relocate and genuinely like you; these two are not mutually exclusive.
Physical time together is important before long term commitment.
The UK can indeed be lonely for singletons. However, you can also be lonely in a marriage.
Given the social scene in the UK is different from that in Nigeria, make sure you marry your friend/pal/buddy, not just a good person as you'll be spending a LOT of time in each other's company.

Too many idiots on here.
Don't allow yourself be pressured into staying in a relationship where you're treated as shabbily as you've described.
It might be difficult to envision now but you'll be better off without this man. Cut him loose so you can attain your full potential; he'll constantly be an impediment to your progress. When the time is right you'll meet someone better.
In the end, we regret inactions more than we do actions.

FreeStuffsNG:

Even the person he appointed to coordinate his campaign in Lagos state , a state in Yorubaland and predominantly Yoruba by population and culture, is from his Igbo tribe.

HE Obi deliberately shunned the millions of indigenous Yoruba in their own state and called the bluff of those who already see him as a tribalist, just to please his Igbo brother as Lagos state coordinator, who to an MC Oluomo is probably one of those MC Oluomo suggested where the ipob terrorist group members behind the coordinated arson and failed attempt on the life of Asiwaju Tinubu in Lagos in 2020.
