To those of us who went out on saturday knew that the problems of INEC is more than the logistic issue JEGA is facing in ABUJA. on the ground, peeps names were missing, logos of a party was absent in place like Gombe, a friend of mine in lagos claimed he saw ACN logo (the broom) on two parties (please can someone confirmed this if true). I personnally was disenfranchised. i registered in rumuodara PH but my name wasnt found at the polling unit. I read it in the dailies today that the REC of cross rivers was thankfull to God that the election was postponed because the whole exercise would have been fraudulent having noticed that some INEC officials have compromised etc.
The problem was obviously more than logistics.

Democracy dividends CANNOT be obtained through ACN - Autocrats Congress of Nigeria- old men imposing their wives, kids, in-laws, relations and maybe even househelps on their party members.      
Progress CANNOT come from ACN- Alliance for Corruption in Nigeria with Tinubu as their leader and Achike Udenwa as frontliner.      
Shine your eyes, identify, scrutinise, select and mobilise support for your national and state assembly legislator candidates on individual merit basis NOT on party basis.

Spot on, Lagosboy!

I have said it times and over again. Tinubu is not a democrat. He doesn't believe in primary elections because he has never gone through one successfully. It seems his nightmares if you ask me. In 1999, Funsho Williams beat him in the AD primaries but the old brigades in Afenifere interveined and gave him the ticket as compensation for lavishing his drug money on NADECO. In 2003, he made sure all other aspirants for the guber seat on the ticket of AD were disqualified and he went to the primaries as the sole candidate. In 2007, he muscled down all other aspirants to allow Fashola emerge on AC's ticket as a sole candidate. Only recently, he was opposed to allowing Buhari, Ribadu and other presidential aspirants under the anticipated CPC/ACN merger go into primaries insisting that the winner must emerge by consensus.

Tinubu is only a pretender. He's more devilish than OBJ.

On Remi Tinubu:

I have read all the posts on this thread and no one seems to get the direction this is leading to. Remi Tinubu is being sent to the Senate to learn the ropes preparatory to getting Fashola's job in 2015! I heard this from a reliable source late last year and now it is playing out.

Please keep this thread and bring it up in 2015. I can bet everything that ACN will throw up Remi Tinubu for Alausa 2015!

Why must we be mild with our foes? Never! We go crazy but that doesn't mean we make them popular. They are only in the news; if acted in movies and or lyriced in songs _it's on an educative note. It does not only apply in Nigeria so long as world history is concerned. Take a look at Adolf Hitler and the world war;  Osama Laden and the United States of America; Chales Taylor and Liberia; you can name the rest. Did they take it kindly? An enemy is an enemy.

Maybe you people have forgotten what the Bible says that "When MEN slept, the devil came and sow what, "Read it up yourself.

I used to be in the world of "Why are people crazy about their Enemies" before now but my brother, this is real. In this part of the world we find ourselves weather you believe it or not there are some people out there who are bent that you wouldn't succeed. They might not necessarily be witches and wizard. They are close to you just like your immediate family, colleague in the office, business partners e.t.c. This is real, we all need to run under the cover of our Lord Jesus Christ. He said "Put on the whole armour of God" why? Because he knows that the wicked, even if you don't prepare for them, they will wage war against you. It happened to me personally and I can tell you, whether you believe it or not, there are people out there who HATES you being successful. This is the TRUTH.

Finally, the wicked one will never attack just ONE category of people and these people are THOSE WHO DOES NOT AMOUNT TO ANYTHING IN LIFE. But if by God's grace you have achieve a commensurable success; ohh! my brother and sister, even if you don't believe it, people around you will envy you, very very few positively envy but a large number of people will envy negatively. You will be surprise who those people will be. Very very close people to you. This will definitely lead to wickedness. They will go places to pull you down while you yet being good to them. It's the truth believe it or not. I have witnessed someone visiting a native doctor in other to clear off his immediate boss and take over the position. Ita happening real and you need to WATCH YOUR BACK. That is why we need to Pray againt the unforeseen evil of the wicked.

An adage says God help those who help themselves. Since the wicked ones will not notify you before perpetrating their evil craft, that is why we have to pray ahead to counter their evil act.

My twenty cent.

Look around the world & recent history, you'll find that political office holders rarely do well in their 2nd/final term, because - but not limited to - the fact they no longer have to face reelection.

Think Clinton, Bush, Mbeki, Obj - like I said, each of these had different reasons for being distracted in their final term. Also, can you mention any governor in recent political history of Nigeria who did better in his final term.

18 - 24 mths into Fashola's second term, the business of govt will begin to die a slow death. Fasola's focus then will be securing his 'pension' - massive embezzlement.

Yes, he has done very well. H/ever, if there is a capable replacement, Lagosians shld thank Mr Fashola for a job well done, wish him good luck in his future endeavours, and send him on his way.

Second term = massive looting. It's not just Fashola, it's the commissioners, & all the political hangers on. It's the norm accross the country.

People should not  get emotional over this. Think with your head, not your heart.

Anything done without God would face more challenges (irrespective of your religion), I'm not saying God-founded marriage is not void of challenges but you need to LOVE your spouse, STAND BY (for better for worse), be COMMITTED to each other and lastly PRAY for another, Marriage is not bed of roses. I think marital challenges would be solved based on my views.
