When our army boys are killed, you see pictures of their tortured bodies and bullet filled heads
when news of boko boys killed comes out, no dead bodies.

Is someone lying seriously about the real situation of things? Did they really kill any boko at all?

For those who don't know, Ugwuanyi is Ekweremadu boy. Anywhere Ekweremadu is is where Ugwuanyi will support.

Enugu people wholeheartedly support Saraki. They all see him as a close friend to the golden son, Ekweremadu.

BabaRamota1980:
I have a nephew who was 11yrs old in 2011 when Jonathan carried PDP Flag and we voted him in as President.

I remember very well he asked me what is vote and what do people do to it? I responded that vote is a power to select good people to be kings over society. He said, uncle, bring back ice cream and some chocolate, ok? He showed zero interest in all I said.

The boy was 15 when we displaced PDP and Jonathan in last election and voted Buhari and APC in. I called my brother's house and asked for him, told him to come out with his father and observe the process for voting. He told me he was waiting on friends, they are going to play football and afterward video game. He didn't ask me to bring anything back but said he will come out with us next time to observe.

He turned 18 this year and a matriculating student. I made sure he registered and has pvc. He still does not understand what it's all about. In 2019 when we go to vote he will be there, as an observer and a participant. I am yet to find out where his state of mind will be in Feb 2019. He is not going to ask for ice cream and chocolate, nor be absorbed in footbal and video game, his focus will be different.

In 2023 my nephew would be 23yrs old, have graduated and served NYSC and employed, or like many now...unemployed. In either of the cases he will be exposed to the reality we all face, no power, poor housing, bad roads, bad bureaucracy, social injustice and all things we complain of under our democracy.

A young boy of 11 asking for ice cream when his elders went and voted in the last administration before Buhari will be there next year when we return to vote Buhari again. He will be voting with us this time.

So I want my Yoruba brothers and sisters to think of this and reflect upon it.

What political democracy children are born into and brought up in will not change dramatically in Nigeria but to get incremental progress toward the goal we need dynamic leaders.

I could bring back ice cream and chocolate for my 11yr old nephew but when he is grown and needs a job, uncle cannot bring a job for him...

Who amongst the political candidates now or in future have dynamic ideas that can be implemented to move us forward as a country? What past records can demonstrate their capabilities?

Tinubu has done in Lagos what no other politician has done for their state or for the nation in the history of Nigeria. His dividends in Lagos paid off to effect leadership in other states and even for the nation. Its almost as if we need to borrow brains from Lagos and put it in Aso Rock...better yet, bring the man that created the new Lagos and put him in Aso Rock.

By 2040 we expect great dividends that pays off for leadership in each state. The adult just turning 30 and ready for public leadership in 2040 is a 10yr old child today in your household asking to be fed ice cream.

Yoruba children are indeed leaders of tomorrow. We must commit to their leadership by doing our part to bring Asiwaju Tinubu into Aso Rock. The task starts now.
the thing that makes me sad? Is that buharri will still be president when your nephew will be 50 years old. It happened to me.

I know clearly that those pictures are over 8 years old but the annoying thing is that the guy is growing the thread with useless pictures.
Growth of the pages is good. Let him continue the page count, in the end the pages will be sanitized.

i think the pictures are very current state of things because these roads they are posting are still not more than a few weeks. ABia state needs special attention if not things will get more out of hand.
Those roads are good now. Those pics are as old as anything.

nnamdijonathan:
it is just unfortunate. I want to believe that those pics are 2010 pics because they are just too terrible. When I asked the the people viewing this trend to post Abia pics, I never wanted Beijindosser to take part because, he will never post any good pic of any state except Anambra.
Those are 2008 pics. All those roads are good now, but the person posting it has an agenda.

He will always remain a failure forever.
