Lol, Tresemme seems to have a good relationship with Buhari though.

Either way, I doubt she is ready back any government till this EU business is done.

michlins:
This man sef. Theresa May that can't sell her own Brexit deal to her government is the one you are negotiating a deal with.


Our leaders are so out of touch

Going by my logic, you are unfit to rule a country like Nigeria especially with Sowore's personality.

You really do not want to compare both. Mandela was a political leader who held several political positions before he was elected the president. He worked with policy makers. He drafted policies. His influence and intelligence were so remarkable that he won his first election hands down.

Do you know what Mandela did to the white supremacist when he became the president? He did not go about punishing them, rather he tried to bridge the past with future. IMO, restorative justice was the way to go. It showed the kind of man he was.

Now, contrast it with what Mugabe did when he became the president. Hint, what do you think Sowore would have done if he were in their position.

Hint- he would have acted like Mugabe, lots of good that did the Zimbabweans.

Reform should not come from someone with so much unresolved issues. Will you with a straight face look at Sowore's manifesto and his reasons for running for government and say this will work?

Our economy relies completely and solely on corruption. Without it, you go suffer. You think Buhari early months, with the effects of his anti-corruption speeches and autocratic attitude, were suffering, they will be nothing compared with what you will have with Sowore. Unfortunately, this is not the middle ages or early 90s, the world is global now. Actions will have serious economic and political consequences-well, except you are part of the major league. And guess what, the likelihood of coming out of it is a chance I am not willing to take. It won't be like Japan, Oh no, I almost forgot that Japan is not as diverse as Nigeria. Even Iran is yet to achieve such feat, they started late and how many years has it been and it has started crashing?

Basically, we can't suddenly become an anti-corrupt nation. We the people are not ready, the system is not designed to be anti-corruption. A true manifesto will not read that a Youth corper salary's should be increased to N50k or propose to create jobs out of thin air (are you forgetting that our private companies thrives because of corruption). Fight against corruption has to be systematic, you can't suddenly come in and weed it out.

A manifesto for a reformed Nigeria will be talking about bringing determinants together. It doesn't need to mention corruption, jobs or increasing salaries. We need practical solutions like TSA. Solutions that start with reforming and cutting bureacracy in government, institutions that encourage public accountability, government backed community policing, active PTA involvement in public schools etc.

We are talking about a man that is not yet the president but is alre

ady very petty. Sahara Reporters is a good project, I give him that. Let him gain proper political experience in Nigeria and see how he performs, then we can talk. I will definitely like to see how he transforms his local government.






Note, I didn't talk about Obama because I think you are comparing apples with oranges

fsho:
Going by your logic, if you have never held position of power you are unfit to rule.

Now answer this: Which local government did Mandela govern before becoming the President of South Africa? The most stabilizing force that nation has ever seen. What was Mandela's experience? Yet he took the country from an Apartheid State to a Democratic State.

Second, Obama was derided as a community leader, spent 6 months as a Senator, lead for 8 years and took America out of recession.

These are genuinely men of character! I hope you now see the flaw in your reasoning (logic).

You are saying is narcissistic. Simply put, he is self-centered. This false and derogatory. Sowore is a respected and an accomplished man. In fact, history will remember him whether he wins or loses this election. He has opened our eyes to the modern enslavement by our oppressors who still want us to continue worshiping them while they turn our country to their private property.

I wish you well and pray you don't end-up a victim of bad governance from Atiku and Buhari. What should victims of Boko Haram say? People who die at public hospitals due to lack of proper management and infrastructure? People internally displaced within their own country? I can continue ...

If you were to take a ride, will you prefer an untrained driver because he supposedly has integrity over a bad driver?

Irrespective of how bad the present leaders are, it is not enough to choose a man that is yet to prove himself, a man that cannot control his outburst and frankly, his sanctimonious attitude is way too narcissistic. I don't have anything to lose and I don't have anything to gain either. I am just concerned about people who think he is a Messiah.We should be careful what we wish for, he may be another Mugabe.

fsho:
Is it until we start losing our loved ones due to bad governance that every body will understand what this fight is about? what should the families of the abducted girls say? You think they would be happy with Buhari/Atiku? The victims of herdsmen attack?, relatives of soldiers who died because this current government is not on the war ion becfronthe best possible shape?
Leadership experience has little to do with charactdeer, you should be looking for people with character! We as citizens don't have anything to fallback on, what do you have to lose by voting for Sowore?

I understand that those with experience have failed us but then again it is not enough reason to vote in a man with no experience and who does not seem to think things through.

I am not saying he should not contest. However, if he sincerely wants to lead this country, he needs to take baby steps. He cannot be mouthing off on how he is going to achieve the impossible without the experience, facts and figures.

princetom1:
So that the country will be destroyed totally before anyone stand up for truth? Fdom the current sat of politicians in power, mention one person that stand for the masses.
None, eight? Unthy has it become an issue wen someone stand for the right of others? Everyday people who call him names are never vilified, but this is a man that has defied the odds, force a nation like Nigeria to prosecute people, open the mind and eyes of people... Work tirelessly with intellect and researchers to brink out a workable and doable manifesto, who understand the ins and out of government because he has always been investigating government...
All those who claim to have experience have all failed, mainly due to their greed and baggages they carry....
Sowore is liberation, like him or not, u can't fault his intention, his aura, his vision, his pedigree and he has shown that he has the capability and capacity to deliver

Why is the cake ugly?

Sowore has some unresolved issues. He takes his activism way too far, so many idiosyncrasies...that includes his present suit.

I am more concerned about his supporters. This is a man who has held no political post who thinks his activism is enough experience to rule the most populous black nation. If he is indeed true to his cause, let him start with the local government chairmanship post. Politics may appear easy but in reality, it is not. Even autocratic nations with their strict laws, death penalty, undemocratic rules and nationalism still struggle, in a country like Nigeria politics is a total new ball game

Right to be uncouth in a debate aired on TV during the hours kids are still up?

It is racism when you insult others because they are darker skinned or insult other typical 'black' features. You can say she is ugly without insulting her race.

Algerian1:
Bullshit , it has nothing to do with racism .


All the last miss algeria from past years are ugly ,from 2014 havnt seen any beautiful miss algeria . i see in the street every day dozens of women more beautiful than the miss .

Miss 2018 for last year was not black and she was mocked for months and even insulted . so it realy has nothing to do with racism .

They don't believe they are white.

They know they are arabs but with strong preference for fairer skinned women. You can be Arab and be very fair.

There is prejudice against darker skinned women irrespective of their race. The Europeans used to have preference for fairer skinned women at a certain point in history.

Onechancearmy:
In their minds, they believe they are white.

IMO, Fuji music is not the best genre. I don't think there is something called the best music. They have some nice songs. For some, I can barely hear them and for others, the beats are way too loud and heavy for my taste.

You definitely don't understand the Yoruba language.
Your parents probably only thought you how to speak.

crafteck:
Mighty sparrow is right..... Your opinion is just bias rants from a yoruba illi... Open your heart and listen to sensible music.... Even bethoven classic piano sheet music stirs emotions more than fuji. You probably like ur name being called in a song too much

Then you know nothing about Fuji music. They may be yours to you but I can bet with your life they have achieved how more intellectual content than your favourite musicians.

MightySparrow:
You are either an illiterate or you don't know what good music is. almost all fuji musicians are illetrates and crude and music noisy lack what you could call professionalism. I think only KWAM makes a little sense though he mentions his name more than other reasonale phrases in his songs.All of them are touts joor.

Everyone does that

dingbang:
Why is it that when a woman wants to make a complaint about her husband, she lets the whole world know she did things.

I pray I dont marry a non-understanding woman. To assist my family is now a problem..

Have you forgiven someone today? Try and strike up a conversation with that person that hurt you last year. A leap is what you need to be a better person

What is complicated about telling a child that her parents provide for the family? It is true for most working class homes and certainly the true reflection of the homes your pupils come from.

1) Quite easy, too many Nigerians

2)I don't you have much control over that. However, moving with Nigerians from home may help you.

3) Overall, not very cold.

TroublemakerPro:
I suppose to be asleep but I can't sleep am so excited..

And please I have questions for those that are in the UK.
1. I'll be starting college as soon as I get there so how hard would it be for me to blend in.

2. I really love my Nigerian accent and I dont want to change like my parents, is this possible?

3. How cold is it because the coat wey dey here no be small oooo

@Herlertah

You haven't mentioned how good your maths is. Calculating without calculator is not enough, people don't mind using apps nowadays. Application is all that matters, is your maths above average? If it is, you should have chosen a course that is maths intensive like mathematics, engineering, statistics and data science and aim to distinguish yourself.

You should also consider studying outside the country it you can.

Why is your mother begging?

If you have talked to her and she is not listening, let her be. She probably needs to make her mistakes.

You can't run away form cancer!

It is her body and she is an adult. She can make video of herself if she likes.

If the video was without his consent, she could have apologised to him already, she does not need to publicise her apology. That choice is for Peruzzi not you. There was not a single denial her post and She did not deride Peruzzi either.

The consequences of her recklessness and shortsightedness are for her and her family to bear. They are the ones that deserve some apology and the apology does not need to be public or involve you.

VictorRomanov:
Is she suppose to make a sextape or video in bed with someone especially a stranger? Not to talk of doing so without the persons consent? Did she regret doing that?

If that isn't wrong to you, then I wonder what will be?

Remorse for what?

VictorRomanov:
I didnt see any remorse or lesson learnt. Just blame blame and more blames. She will repeat the same mistake, in another dimension.

Some parting gift though

More stringent laws on drones to follow..all because of an idiot!

This is not an apology!

Lol. This is good

IamD18:
With just pepper and red oil, I can comfortably marry 10 wives from one region like that.

It's not like I'm insulting Yoruba people oo.

May he rest in pieces. He should go and account to BH victims and God.


This is not about Buhari or Atiku or Jonathan. To hell with all of them!
