You are politically naive brother.

Atiku doesn't have any base that can match PMB's base.

Just check his past election performances please.
Past election performance?
Have you checked the past hunger statistics for the past 3 years?

Mr politically knowledgeable go and sit down.

Ehmmm why not, I was defiled by my house help (female) at a much earlier age also anyway. Plus with females they have a higher tendency of being molested at a young age......by men than boys. Most of my female friends gone through shit. So its plausible
Oga, that thing is a very rampant lime among girls. It is very very hard for a girl to really tell you her sexual history even after you open up to her on yours.

I have this current case at hand where a girl told me about two of her ex-boyfriends who she said she never had sex with and they were her best relationships then I asked her whether she is still a virgin she said no, so how the Bleep did she lose her virginity? she stopped talking. A few weeks later she told me her former boss usually had a friends-with-benefit style of friendship with his workers, she gave me so much details that I knew she was talking about herself because I don't see how her boss friends would have told her that much.

That stuff is a regular line among women.

Are you even sure that person is Igbo. U know sometime some of this monikers(whoever is behind them) will come online to say some thrash, very different from how the average igbo person reasons, and want to create an illusion that they represent igbos. Very suspicious.
Igbos don't care about yorubas. They really didn't support the guy before, and I don't think they still do now
I swear, most igbos I know in lagos here are busy hustling, they don't care about lagos politics. All these guys online arguing rubbish about ambode and the other guy claiming to be igbos should shut up. Funny thing is that they are so unreasonable that they always support the losing team making igbos look bad.

Buhari instructed Tinubu to ensure a MUSLIM is put in place as Lagos Governor.

Islamisation of SW politicians is in top gear...!
As an Igbo man, you guys disgrace me by talking out of ignorance. Stop playing the religious card, most of these politicians are closet atheists sef, they really don't give a flying f**K about religion. Is tinubu not a Muslim and his wife a Christian same with fashola?

Stop displaying ignorance and disgracing your tribe.

PoliticsUS 'concerned' About Voting Irregularities In Nigeria Osun State Elections by themonk(op): 2:39am On Sep 29, 2018
Lagos, Nigeria (CNN) US elections observers in a fiercely-contested state governor election in Nigeria say they witnessed what appeared to be incidents of voter intimidation and interference in the electoral process.

US Consul General, John Bray was part of a diplomatic mission that observed voting at polling stations in Osun State, south west Nigeria on Thursday.

"The Missions of the United States, European Union and the United Kingdom observed voting at polling stations in Osun today," he said in a local media interview.


"We witnessed what appeared to be incidents of interference and intimidation of voters and heard reports of harassment of party monitors, journalists and domestic observers." Bray added.

"We are very concerned by these reports and will be checking with stakeholders to determine the facts. We call on all stakeholders to remain calm." he added.

Allegations of thuggery and voter intimidation marred the Thursday rerun of the election which was first held on September 22.

Photos of injured civilians was also posted on social media, while local media also reported cases of vote buying by political parties.


Nigeria's electoral body (INEC) said it was "disturbed about reports that accredited media and observers are being arrested or prevented from operating in some polling units." but soon reported that "issues of access to polling units by voters, accredited Media & Observers have since been resolved."

Senator Ademola Adeleke, of the People's Democratic Party (PDP) was widely believed to have won the first round of the election.

However INEC officials declared the result inconclusive and a winner was not announced.


According to a media statement by INEC, results were canceled in seven polling units as votes in those units were affected for various reasons including malfunction of card readers and disruptions to the process.

Thursday's rerun saw incumbent Gboyega Oyetola, of the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC declared the winner.

President Buhari congratulated his APC party member, Oyetola win saying, "I congratulate the All Progressives Congress (APC) and the Governor-Elect of Osun State, Adegboyega Isiaka Oyetola. Thank you Osun State for supporting our good governance agenda by re-electing the APC. We will continue to work for you, and for the entire country."

However, the election rerun and the results have been disputed by Adeleke and his supporters.

The "dancing senator"


Nicknamed "the dancing senator," Adeleke is popular on social media for his energetic and carefree dance moves.


Adeleke's family has a generational history in Nigerian politics, with the senator's late father and brother both previously holding senatorial seats, making him the third senator in his family.

In 2017, Adeleke took over from his late brother and was elected to represent Osun-west senatorial district under the People's Democratic Party.

His nephew, popular Nigerian musician, Davido was active in his election campaign, performing to massive crowds during a campaign rally.

Adeleke is also the father of two Nigerian musicians named B-Red and Shina Rambo. In an interview with a local media outlet, Adeleke discussed his love for dance, saying "I love dancing. I take it as an exercise.".

This love for dance has earned him both praise and condemnation from the public, some who see him as a breath of fresh air, while others criticize him as "unserious."

"We entertain unserious characters like this into sensitive seats and act surprised when they debase the consecrated institution," one Twitter user said.


But some Nigerians also enjoy the dancing senators antics, saying "Abeg free him joor, he's just a happy fellow.....his being a senator shouldn't dampened his cheerful disposition mbok."

I get your point and agree to the fact that living your life in a non-conformist way is the best. But if you're a woman who genuinely desires to have a home and children, these things will eventually get to you, especially when you know you deserve more.
I agree. If you have similar goals with the one that society expects then you should be bothered to achieve it.

Zieina:
Pls, let's call a spade a spade. In our world, marriage is everything. If you're a single lady, approaching 35 and still insisting marriage isn't everything, then you're in denial or probably have a good support system. But what about society? People will size you up based on your single status and look down on you cos you haven't any offspring yet.
I would like to point out that this is the social construct in Nigeria mostly as we haven't fully evolved out of the cultural conformist chains that hold us back. I am a huge non-conformist and will never do anything to please someone when I derive no pleasure from it. I fully do not care about what the society says neither am I burdened by the goals they place for me and I will advise everyone to live the way that most suits him or her because at the end it is your life and if you do things because people do, you'll regret it.
