CROWNWEALTH019:Even you know that he is not spending 1term. Atiku is as aloof and unconcerned about the true realities of the average Nigerian. When was the last time Atiku received a thunderous slap from the Nigerian Police? When was the last time Atiku was flogged for overtaking a military or police convoy? When was the last time Atiku took to the streets to take up a cause that was not politically beneficial to his presidential aspirations? Even when other PDP politicians and presidential aspirants took to the streets of Abuja to protest what they believed was their unfair loss in the Osun elections, Atiku was in his house watching it on TV, while receiving a back massage. Atiku has only ever been known to fight for his businesses and his Presidential ambition. Oby Ezekwesili has been an unyielding voice for the voiceless, and has put herself in harms way for the benefit of others. She knows truly that all is not well with the institutions in Nigeria, because she has been a victim. I will pick her over anyone else to reform Nigeria. Atiku will spend his term if elected, and nothing will change besides an economy that rises and falls with oil prices. Nigeria would still remain that country where laws exist for the regular Joes, while there are no rules for the rich and politically affiliated. |
CROWNWEALTH019:There can be no better tomorrow with the likes of Atiku and the politicians in PDP or APC. Why do we insist to hold on to failure that is certain or hope in someone who has benefitted from the failure of Nigeria. Why must the worst set of politicians be the ones desired by people who claim to be tired of a failed nation? Tell me you believe that Atiku can reform the Nigerian police to treat you as a human being with rights in a democracy, more than Oby Ezekwesili who has interacted with the police force in their cruelest of abuse of power and knows that police is not friendly? Tell me you believe Atiku would be more alive to his responsibilities as the president of the country and focus on what is relevant. Tell me you believe Atiku and PDP will give you a budget that is not padded with Aso Rock cutlery and outrageous feeding bills, as opposed to Oby Ezekwesili? Tell me you believe that Atiku and PDP will truly allow Freedom of Information as already passed, to be truly effected in all spheres of government activity, as opposed to Oby Ezekwesili? Why do we like wasting our time in this country? Has Buhari not proven enough that these political class who have been in the corridors of power and with vested interests that are not patriotic but personal, will never reform this country in anyway even if they spend 4yrs or 16yrs? Are we not tired of queuing at foreign embassies for visa, so we can experience the sanity that does not exist in our own society? Is it not in your power to effect such sanity in your own country by voting only sane and upright people who are well involved in the daily sufferings and indignity you also experience from everyone who considers himself/herself a constituted authority of public menace. |
CROWNWEALTH019:She was part of those that helped to sack the previous clueless failure that squandered years of prosperity and increasing debt while running down all previous savings other regimes had saved up even when the national revenue from Crude Oil was not up to half of what the clueless failure was opportune to earn. That she was one of those who helped to sack failure in the past, is enough shinning credential in a sane and decent society. But it seems we are confused on who we should consider a patriot and who we should consider an enemy of the state who wondered why a thief who was accused of stealing $5m as at 1983, should be jailed for stealing money not enough to buy a Peugeot. |
Oby Ezekwesili has no corruption scandal, and was known to have effected due process principles in all of her public service appointments. She is a notorious activist who has fought causes at such great discomfort, for which she had nothing to gain personally. She rightly criticized Jonathan as a failure who had no care at all for the average Nigerian, nor bothered to even pretend to be fighting corruption. She also rightly realised that Buhari was devoted to the path of failure in his very early days in power. Now does anyone think Atiku cares about the life of the average Nigerian more than Oby Ezekwesili? Do you think Atiku will nurture democracy and the rights of the citizenry more than Oby Ezekwesili? Has Atiku ever fought for the basic rights of Nigerians besides fighting for his own rights to ascend the presidency of Nigeria? What was Atiku's proffered solution to the Fulani Herdsmen he refused to accept are terrorists? Why will the same people who say Nigeria is a failed nation, vote for the same set of people who benefit from the failure of Nigeria as a necessary prerequisite for their own success? Oby Ezekwesili 2019! |
Oshokomale has been reduced to Oshofonkale. The development of Ekiti state for the past 4years, can be found equitably distributed in the septic tanks contents all over the state. |
Omeokachie:You mean PDP will release its corrupt members like Dasuki? You mean PDP is craving for power just to have the opportunity to release those who stole public funds for the sake of the party? |
eyinjuege:You have shown that you are observant and care about having a country that works. Many have chosen to be blind. |
datola:10000000000% better, but we seem to be cursed to celebrate and desire those who have no clue and do not care. This woman is one patriot who is certain to effect a reform of the country and her institutions. |
You should also remind us of many more. Yet with such budget we were already borrowing N470b (over $2.5b) just to pay civil servant salaries in Feb/Mar/April 2015, even when crude oil was still selling above $50/barrel? We refused to pay over $5b that was the FG share of counterpart funding for JV oil projects from 2010 to 2015. Foreign Reserves that stood at $47b in 2010, reduced to $30b in 2015. |
jumpandpas:My vote if I am chanced to cast it, is for Oby Ezekwesili. I was never disappointed by a Jonathan presidency that I never had any hope in. I was disappointed by the Buhari regime because I expected visible reforms and a tougher and sincere fight against corruption up to the lowest level of society and not just a celebrated campaign against big time political criminals. I thought by now, the police would know that it has no right collecting money for bail that they themselves publicly claim is free. I do not have any hope in Atiku and PDP, so even if he were to win because Nigerians have a short memory that ensures they will deservedly suffer for their mental handicap and vote in Atiku and PDP, I will not be disappointed that all they failed to achieve in their previous 16yrs, were still not achieved in typical fashion of PDP and such typical corrupt political class. In Oby Ezekwesili, I see someone who knows Nigeria has a problem and knows that our institutions are all moribund, and will show the willpower and temerity to face them as though there was fire burning at her behind. |
INEC must ensure that no party is above the law. |
jumpandpas:A concerned private citizen, yet wrote in his capacity as a state governor? Yet he still lamented that his state did not getting a sizeable chunk of the investments those loans were to facilitate. You are a blind sycophant. CC: omoelerin1 |
jumpandpas:If you were neutral, you will understand that a state governor has no business going to the criminal prosecution of an accused, and cheering for the defendant against the state prosecution. It will only ever happen with Fayose in the whole world. You will understand that a state governor has no legal standing to be antagonizing and checkmating the diplomatic negotiations between the constitutional government of the country and a foreign partner country. If you were not a sycophant of the PDP, you would know all of these. |
Dem just dey give Fayose emotional torture. It is now Fayose will sit back and contemplate that "was I the only opposition governor in Nigeria, yet I was the only state chief executive that made Buhari his only topic of governance?". The only state governor in all of Nigeria who is not from the SouthEast, yet came to identify with a terrorist Nnamdi Kanu in court. The only state governor who broke diplomatic protocol and federal superiority and sovereignty, by writing to the Chinese government not to give loans to the constitutional government of Nigeria. The only state governor who turned to the spokesman of PDP, when other PDP governors were busy developing their respective states and keeping a cordial working relationship with the federal government. He did all of these despite knowing he has many corruption cases and audio recorded electoral fraud hanging on his neck. Now his only hope of getting a ticket as a VP candidate of PDP, to use as his defence and protection against legal prosecution with the claims of political witch-hunt against a major opposition candidate in the president election, has now failed to workout as planned. Sadly, those he was amusing like a clowning entertainer did not even wait a day's benefit of doubt before starting to call him the opposite of the names and accolades they once showered on him. Oshokomale is now Oshofonkale! |
Bigtotoboi:What is her going rate? And when will her stock depreciate so that the masses can also afford her? |
Fayose has even been abandoned by those he was entertaining. |
Everyone that will react outside the entertainment industry, will do it just to be relevant and in the news. If he was not contesting, he will not be reacting. |
What is her job that brings the income spent lavishly? |
Nbote:So settlement means guilty? The media frenzy he tried to avoid then with a settlement is what has eventually occurred despite the money paid. What you should wonder is why someone who claims to have been raped,would rather collect a settlement, then go against the terms of that settlement years later. When Michael Jackson finally got tired of paying settlements for being the open and welcoming person he was, not denying his own particular weirdness, he finally won a parasite in court. A parasite whose family had a history of looking for damages and settlements anywhere possible. Even from a departmental store, claim to have been injured by the goods stored on the shelves. Celestine Babayaro had his own share of this same sexual assault accusations when he had barely spent a year in the UK. Anthony Joshua was well advised by Floyd Mayweather, when a woman at a fan meet and greet event gave him a wrapped gift. He told him squarely that he should avoid such traps. Kobe Bryant of Lakers will never forget his own case in a hurry. A Nigerian student in the UK, Olumide Fadayomi, had already spent time in jail on a false accusation by a serial rape accuser, before she was finally unraveled. By then, one of her unfortunate victims of rape accusation, had committed suicide because of the shame he was made to face by people like you. High income earning men need to be disciplined enough to avoid the seductive luring of women who are out clubbing on a mission to be rich. |
Jimi Agbaje no dey tire to lose and go missing for 4yrs, only to reappear for another loss. |
Good full frontal step. |
Agbaletu:If we know, then let us project her. Nigeria deserves better than the charlatans we rally to support. Her antecedents of fighting for the good of others, and her experience in governance is a good fit for someone who can reform the country that Buhari has failed to do. |
FarahAideed:Now I know you are not a patriot. You are not interested in a decent Nigeria, all you are interested in is having PDP back in power to devour as they did for 16yrs. |
This is one Nigerian I can campaign and vote for. A selfless human who has put herself in discomfort and harm's way for a task that she is not employed for and for the benefit of others. This is one woman that I am certain can reform decrepit institutions in Nigeria, and finally place a value of worth on the life of the Nigerian that is wasted so easily by those in authority to secure lives, and by the self hating mob of peasants who are ready to devour each other. |
The red caps could not resist the dollars flaunted before their almajiri eyes. |
OlaAshawo:You never tire of this twisted mindset that already suggests that any propaganda is good as long as it achieves the intended goal? |
Johnnyessence:o |
Saraki no try at all. Grow Nigeria did not resonate as Kwara no grow, but Saraki's wealth grew. |
Tambuwal 693 |
escodotman:I voted Atiku as Action Congress AC presidential candidate in 2007. He failed and was 3rd behind Yar'Adua and Buhari. |
Atiku is an epitome of those who were made by corruption. |
NwaAmaikpe:He is not a disgrace, he is a confirmation that a technocrat and career civil servant who rode on the political structures of Tinubu to become a Governor from nowhere, can also be easily returned to nowhere when he loses the support of the structures that made him. He eventually competed in a direct and fair primary and lost in a democratic fashion, as his own party members lost faith in him such that even Tinubu had to kowtow to their demands. That is democracy. A democracy that will always have party bigwigs and associated supporters who will follow the decision of their bigwigs. Like the Kennedy supporters or Clinton supporters of the Democratic Party, or the Tea Party supporters of the Republican Party. |

I thought he claimed he didn't do it and in his words it was "Fake news"? So not only did he rape her anally and pay her to kip it closed but he also did without protection
