Gbawe: 100% correct. suffice to say I am enjoying watching an implosion play out ala 'a house divided against itself'. Let us hope the opposition Parties get their act together, merge and show Nigerians their togetherness. The best strategy is for a merger to happen sooner rather than latter. It will be a big advantage if Nigerians see a united and consistent grassroot mobilisation from the mega Party while they see a "the nest of killers" bogged down in rancour, acrimony and do-or-die internal battles.

tawa89: he didn't say yorubas are the d single largest ethnic group rather he said they are d single largest ethnic grp that can give u bloc votes cos they have no interest 2015 election cos OBJ just left ASO ROCK

aribisala0: People should take note of the contribution of the port.This is MORE than oil from any state.So all those JOKERS saying LAGOS was built with oil money should take note.Lagos ports contribute MORE than any oil producing state

Maxymilliano: Good that we can establish this. I've stayed in Lagos and Sango Ota in Ogun State for most part of my life, and I have business interest across both State.

For the fact that some people choose to question Fashola's credibility did not mean
they are PDP goon or paid agent as you may want to believe.

Fashola may be doing a good job, but most of his policies lack human face as far as I'm concern. He favours the elites, knowing fully well they control the purse strings. But this are just the privilege few when contrasted against the lower class that populated the mainland, and who constituted bulk of the voting population.

You can help me out by educating me on some of Fashola latest massive achievements, and not the usual newspaper excerpts some persons are fond of assaulting me with on this forum.

Maxymilliano: Are you staying in Lagos ? I'll follow this thread because of you.

Just provide a response to the innocuous question I put across before taking it further.

mankevo: I am an Igbo, but those Ohanzuzu folks has become greatest disappointment to their immediate family not entire Igbos. Bunch of cowards always finding a soft landing by negotiating with Any Govt in Power (AGIP) They are not affected by globalization,always repeating the same old mistakes and hoping for manna of Presidency to fall on their table.
Let them re-negotiate with him and hand him again 98% of Igbo votes and keep their South East Zone perpetually in shambles and divide.No wonder there's no govt that takes us serious.
Am sure if Jonathan wants to re-contest (as obvious) he will commit greatest campaign energy,funds,lobby and developmental ability in SW (because of ACN) and always ''Promising to hand over Power to Igbos in 2019'' That's all he will tell Easterners because everybody has known them to be ''Stomach minded Politicians''

jchime: Berem, do you believe punch when they say that sullivan is not yet back.the Governor is back,hale and hearty. However,he jetted out of the country earlier on 31st to honour an invitation extended to him by ENUGU indigenes in diaspora as they celebrate their 50th town hall meeting Anniversary.

taharqa: If the @OP would be so kind as to allow me repost parts of what he itemized recently as some of the 'small' other things that the FG have done with its share of the SURE-P Fund, since he did it so succinctly there would be no need to rehearse it all over again:




It would be good if ACN can avail us of the info on how their states have been using the billions of naira it had received so far as its share of SURE-P.

If you ask a question, that question may be asked back at you, lol.

alj harem: SMH SMH SMH

How can PDP lead government prosecute Tinubu ? Is the judiciary government under any party ? Is the Judge a PDP man ? Was it not of recent that Salami was removed cause of the corrupt practises he was doing for Tinubu if at all there is any party affiliation. Thanks to Oga Tinubu

Lagos state is different from other states because people in Lagos would ask questions and talk. Stop comparing Lagos with the rest of the 35 states. They are not in any way upto Lagos in terms of politics, interrogations, debates, education, accountability etc all of which would keep any corrupt leader on his/her toes.

You asked if PDP members less corrupt than Tinubu ? LOL You are a funny man

This brings me to the typical Nigerian system. When you steal small, you are prosecuted but when you steal big, you are considered a hero. When Bode George was caught with 80 billion naira see all of you shout on NL but tinubu that cannot still account for 22 billion dollers which is more than Bode, he is considered a hero. How typical

Yes ofcourse Lagos is a pacesetter right from the days of Jakande, Marwa and co. Fashola is not the first to move us forward and certainly would not be the last. Are you saying it is only ACN that can move us forward ?

Outside both parties Yes you might be right but the alternative is LP of which Mimiko is a disappointment as well. PDP is the only alternative as they would want to impress and keep Lagos. Let me remind you that State chapter of a party is different from the federal.
