Be realistic. Nigeria is not ripe for a Sowore. How well is his grassroot support? The millions of illiterate Nigerians living in rural areas do not know Sowore. Any vote for Sowore by the middle-class goes to Buhari. Sowore should continue his ambition. One day, he would be accepted by a party with grassroot structures. Then, we can massively support him if he's better than the main opposition.

Sowore can't go into APC or PDP because he will be compromised.

Next thing you know Tinubu would want to start giving him instructions, or OBJ.

That's another reason I love him, a man without a GODFATHER.

I see your point, but even if he doesn't win, at least we did the right thing because if Buhari or Atiku wins in 2019, Nigeria will not change.

See how much they hyped Buhari in 2015, one would have thought that by now, Nigeria would be much much better, but they still can't even average over 5000mw of power. That will be the same thing with an Atiku, you will hype him up, should Atikulated and by 2023, Nigeria will still be the same. Atiku that even imports generators, how can he give you electricity without collapsing his business?

So since an Atiku and a Buhari will do no good to Nigeria, I will vote Sowore win or lose and know that I did my part toward securing a better Nigeria for me and my family.

IamAtikulate:
Yorubas should lead the way and we would follow.

I am from Delta, my Mum is from Benin and we all both voting for Sowore.

She regrets that she would may not live to see a Nigeria of her dreams, at least one with steady Electricity and she always tells me that my generation will correct Nigerias mistakes.

But then I go online and see my generation shouting Atiku and Buhari up and down and I almost start crying.

OBAMA and SOWORE went to the same IVY LEAGUE SCHOOL, Columbia University

So how is it that we are presented with such a splendid choice and still want to bring back people that ruled our parents as children to come back and rule us.

Remember how they used to say that "NO ONE IS BETTER THAN BUHARI", like for real? A masters degree in Public Adminstration from Columbia University is not better than someone who can't even present his WAEC certificate to INEC

sigh

shakmati:
You are getting it wrong. The zombies are those who despite the dismal performance of the lifeless have refused to wear back their brains to demand for a change. Sowore's time is not now. Except you are a tribal bigot who would rather we remain in this mess than progress!

Forget Trubalism and think bro, thiiiiink

What is Atiku coming back to do? With his anolog thinking? The same way Buhari came back and we all warned, see how he can't even think in modern terms now. See your Nigeria now in 2018.

Sowore and Obama went to the SAME IVY LEAGUE SCHOOL BRO(Columbia Univeristy), let that sink in.

Why do we always do all this rubbish to ourselves and start crying later? There is nothing Atiku is coming to do that will sincerely move Nigeria forward.

Only in Nigeria that we reject good seeds and pick bad ones and we wonder why we harvest a shhhhithole Nigeria. Don't you know that it's by a fruit that you know the tree

IamAtikulate:
Why should we vote for someone we know his brothers would openly reject? Yoruba moslems can never vote for Sowore. Don't ask me why.

You should vote for him simply because he is more educated bro, like common. Ivy league grad How can you compare Atiku to an Ivy league Grad?

and Sowore is Yoruba and Ijaw, so there is no way igbos and yorubas can diss themselves.

Do people think it's easy to get into an Ivy league school?

TrueLEADER:
Those four beggars up there prefer to stick to poverty and hunger instead of trying something new out.

Atikulated Patriot.

Yes! I am!

You are not a Patriot but a zombie, like how we used to diss dem Buhari zombies back in the day.

If you were a Patriot, you wouldn't support an Atiku over a younger, more educated Sowore, commmmon!!!

You guys are the new zombies

It would be a disservice to honor this woman by voting in the very people that ruining her country in Buhari and Atiku.

How many of her likes do you think there are in Nigeria?

How many selfless people like her in Nigeria exist today with all the frustration around?

I'm sure she will tell you the horrors of the Nigerian medical field, about her horrid working conditions, their lack of equipment and so on. Yet she made the ultimate sacrifice and you think if she were here today, as smart as she was, that she will be endorsing a Buhari or Atiku


Something is really wrong with the youths in this country.


You are already campaigning for people that made public health in Nigeria the disaster that it is today, God forbid.

Nobody endorsed you and nobody endorsed Buhari.

In 2019, Nigerians will vote with their conscience and vote Sowore into power, so that Nigeria can join other nations in the 21st century.

We do not want APC and PDP and their useless and analog form of Government.

Nigerians want it to be that Americans will be begging for their Visa, not that Nigerians will be running to Libya when we have Oil, Gold, Uranium, Agriculture...

Nigerians are tired of Suffering and Smiling

Nigerians are tired of being looked down on by other countries.




We are ready to have the most educated president in Nigerias history in Sowore with a Masters in Public Administration from Columbia University and an Undergrad in the prestigious University of Lagos.


Sowore 2019

All of you shouting Atiku up and down are hypocrites.

If it's education you're looking for, why not vote for Sowore, who has a Masters from Columbia University (Ivy league)

Most Nigerians it seems are not ready to live in a better country, shouting Buhari and Atiku up and down without shame.

rusher14:
Yes, we would be generating twice our capacity today without a doubt.

This government's reputation for delivering on infrastructure is unmatched and indubitable.

We have seen evidence in the airport terminals, raillines, roads being built. Some markets are enjoying uninterrupted power supply as we speak.

There is a thing as lesser evil.

Atiku was in a government that never concluded a single infrastructural project.

So spare me.

I am for Sowore here, I am against recyling old Analog Politicians in Buhari and Atiku.

If you are projecting a jump from 4000MW in 2019 to 10,000MW in 2023, then why didn't APC make the jump from the 4,000MW they met it to 10,000MW by 2019

Simply because you guys can't do it, you lack the fundamental capabilities to do it. You lack the will to as well, as your minister of power if busy telling his kinsmen to support the current government based on the presidency being transferred to his tribe later. If he was a serious minister, he'd have no time sorting through the numerous papers on his desk, deals that need signing, files that need to be transferred and so on to be uttering such crass statement.

APC spent a whopping 3 billion dollars looking for oil in the north. Yet if the had spent that money DIRECTLY on SOLAR PANELS in the north, do you know how many MegaWatts of power they could have added? You don't? okay lets do that math.

A watt of solar panels in todays market goes for roughly 1 dollar.

So 3,000,000,000 would equate to 3,000,000,000 watts = 3,000,000KW = 3,000MW.


Yet they will tell Nigerians we don't have money, but you already spent 3,000MW worth of power looking for oil in the north that you did not find.

For people at home in Nigeria already using solar, like myself, you know that with solar you always have some electricity being generated when the sun is up. Most solar home owners in Nigeria look forward to the sunrise more than others, cause the sunrise brings with it, power for their electronics.

So if indeed APC was serious, they would have used that 3 billion dollars to increase our electricity production by 3,000MW all under a year, as solar plants don't take as long to setup as typical Coal, Nuclear and Gas plants.


Buhari has no vision and neither does Atiku.


Sowore 2019

APC and PDP will tell you that it can't be done, while they wallow in corrupt allocations to themselves and kitchen budgets


To show how unserious APC and PDP are, they don't even mark lanes on roads, something that you can hire laborers to do, something that schools do to their track fields every interhouse-sports event. They won't do it, simply because they don't care, are corrupt and are not exposed at all to modern ways of doing things. That's why APC and PDP government of today still build roads with OPEN-GUTERS and NO-SIDEWALKS and they expect our praise.

Nigerians, you know deep down in you heart that you deserve a better, more educated leader.

Can Buhari get into Columbia University? Can Atiku Get in?

Sowore got in for a Masters in PUBLIC ADMINSTRATION, He is 10 times more qualified than Buhari and Atiku put together. The choice is there for Nigerians to make if they want to be free.

We are Tired of Nigeria being the butt of jokes around the world.




We could have a new Nigeria like this, it can be done.

rusher14:
I agree he has the right to choose.

Voting against a candidate is also a vote even if your own candidate would not win.

Yet I say, in light of the impending result, one might want to review his vote to ensure it is the lesser (evil) that prevails.

There is no lesser evil bro, I wish we could all wake up from our slumber as a nation.

This is 2018, are we not tired of no electricity? Forget those saying things are better in their area, because for that to happen, it would have to be worse in other areas to compensate, if we are still generating about 4000MW. Check the stats bro, we are still at about 4000MW, bro we can't continue like this.

I'd rather "waste" my vote on a Sowore who would be the first Nigerian President with an Ivy league Education who is serious about REAL DEVELOPMENT, not all these corrupt, analog politicians.

Let me ask you a simple question, do you think that if we elect a Buhari or an Atiku, that in 2023 Nigeria would be able to STEADILY generate 10,000MW of Electricity? Not a one time spike up to 7,000MW, NO! I mean an AVERAGE of 10,000MW.

If the answer to this question above is no, then why bother

I'm telling you, with all of my heart, that if Sowore is President, by 2023, Nigeria would average more than 10,000MW.

If you have ever slept in darkness, driven on pothole infested roads, been stuck in avoidable traffic for hours, been constantly harrassed by soldiers and police in a democracy...

If after all these you still support APC and PDP in 2019, then it must me that you don't love yourself and your country, truly.

In Nigeria they see black and call it white, then they go back and wonder why the white turns out to be black

rusher14:
Those voting Sowore are voting Atiku.

All Igbo neutrals would vote Atiku so why throw yours away?

He is not throwing his vote away by doing what he deems righteous in his heart, a notion that is soo foreign to folks like you who have been battered and bruised by a corrupt Nigeria.

lol, So all of a sudden, "There is no Hunger in the Land"

Tribalist arguing against known facts, all to the destruction of their own country.

God must have had a good reason for making me a Nigerian, but I'm not seeing it yet, not with these citizens I share this country with.

If Nigerians are ready for real change, they'd shun APC and PDP in 2019 and vote the likes of Sowore, but I guess we like to cut off our own noses here to spite our faces

Buhari, Atiku, Sowore, Duke

rubbish as always

you don't have money, but look at the car your president and senate president drives

compare that to the president of Uruguay

https://www.biyokulule.com/sawiro/sawirada_waaweyn/Jose%20Mujica6.jpg


This is a trash topic

If you are poor, why does the Senate take home more than U.S senators?

Why does the Presidency budget billions for their kitchen?

Why do they spend billions to rehabilitate every time?

Why do they spend billions on new cars every 2 to 4 years?

...



Rubbish

Sowore 2019

SarkinYarki:
A vote for Sowore is an indirect vote for Buhari

why are we like this? so because you think Atiku is popular, is that why you are saying a vote for Sowore is a vote for Buhari?

People will just waste their votes voting for Buhari and Atiku, then you will still complain that Nigeria is bad, Nigeria is this and that

Kingosytex:
sowore should first of all contest for the chairmanship of his L.G.A, he should start there, in life you have to count one before two

That doesn't have to be the case in politics.

You don't go to school to be a politician, although Sowore does have a MASTERS in PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION from an Ivy League university which makes him 10 times more qualified than Buhari and Atiku.

Look at Trump for instance, he went straight from the Business world to the Presidency, he didn't have to start by being a councilor or mayor, e.t.c.

What you need in a President is for him/her to have the traits of a good leader:

Honesty and Integrity. ...
Inspire Others. ...
Commitment and Passion. ...
Good Communicator. ...
Decision-Making Capabilities. ...
Accountability. ...
Delegation and Empowerment. ...
Creativity and Innovation


...not how much they have stolen under the guise of "experience" as is the case in Nigeria. Look at all our ill educated politicians with so called experience, saraki's, dinos, buharis... is that the kind of experience Sowore needs to have? Experience in failure, stealing and corruption?

My dear friend, Let's save Nigeria one vote at a time, we don't have to vote in a bad Atiku, just cause we "think" he would win.

Atiku will be the same as a Buhari, which will be the same as a Saraki, which will be the same as a Tinubu... I hope you see where I'm going with this.


Wouldn't you like to see a better Nigeria in your lifetime? Or do you want your Children at age 50 when you are 90 years old, still burning generator to sleep at night

Buhari, a certificateless Dictator won't change Nigeria.

Atiku, a generator importer would not give you electricity bro.


Vote with you conscience in 2019, vote for a better future for Nigeria in 2019.

Sowore 2019

Igbos and Yorubas have been at the forefront of calls to restructure Nigeria, but the closest we have ever gotten to that is a National Confab conducted by GEJ, which was never implemented.

If GEJ had enough balls, he'd have started that process earlier on, but I guess he didn't want to step on too many toes.

Sowore being of both Yoruba and Ijaw Orijin- close to the igbo nation - has shown that he is indeed ready to restructure Nigeria unlike the lip service being played by both Buhari and Atiku.

So if the South as a whole is really serious about controlling a greater share of their resources then Sowore is the man for you.

With restructuring, the north can even prosper more as they would be forced to mine natural resources like Gold and Uranium and keep a huge share of the profits.

It's a win win situation for everyone especially Igbos and Yorubas.

So let's take our country back from those that would want it to remain the same way it is.



SOWORE 2019

dVIA:
Only a few of you would do that.
The majority of the voters will vote with ethnicity, religion and party affiliations.
Others will vote based on who gives them more money.

That election is between Buhari and Atiku, and it is even more to Buhari because the Army, the Police and INEC will collude to rig him in.

I pray that in the secrecy of their vote, Nigerians will cast it en mass for Sowore in 2019.

Don't give up, we have to educate and educate and educate...

Useless government, can't you have a police force that pays more attention to day to day enforcement?

They rather let the whole situation escalate and then pack all their cars to come and show for one week, then it's back to collecting 50 naira from okada and motorists, mtcheew...

Sowore: Ivy League College Grad, Creator of Sahara Reporters, Activist...

Buhari: Not even School certificate.


Yet on election day, people will use their PVC to vote for a Buhari, God forbid bad thing

dVIA:
I hear again that Buhari cannot provide papers to back up his qualifications.
And instead of Nigerians calling for resignation, arrest and prosecution, they are rather ready to return him to power.

If we check the voting philosophies of African Nations, where ethnicity and religion supersedes leadership qualities, the chances of Mr. Buhari winning again is very high.

And what is my verdict?
Africans are DUMB!

The VP candidate to the opposition PDP, said his people are tired of marginalization..
Please is that a campaign promise?

One of the leading characters in the present administration has asked his people to vote the ultimate failure called Buhari again so that his people will take over the Presidency in the next 4 years, how is that a prelude to good governance.

Africans are dumb!

Now, if this Buhari character is allowed to contest again without providing his certificates, i will simply conclude that Nigeria is the worst country in Africa if not in the whole world.

Where are the patriots?
Where are the intellectuals?

Bros, please forgive us!

We will vote Sowore 2019

Dipville:
We have been paying #145 cause of subsidy, now these guys claiming they been paying #53 on each litre. In essence a litre should be #145+#53=#198/ltr. This is really a mistake of a nation.

yes oo, actually I think landing cost today of petrol is even higher at around N203, due to increased Oil prices.

Every one know we need refineries if we ever want to have cheap petrol without subsidy, but it's funny how Tinubu, Buhari and the rest were acting like subsidy is a fraud back in the day, lol.

We need refineries to work ASAP, it makes no sense that a country that has oil ships it overseas and then buys back petrol, sigh

Yet Buhari Called Subsidy a fraud back in the day, gosh Imagine

Please you guys, watch this video below:


BUHARI CALLS SUBSIDY A FRAUD

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uAriq3_2zaM

Nigeria needs Sowore 2019!

Say no to Suffering and Smiling, Say no to Recycling Old Politians.

Say yes to a better Nigera, Youths arise!

GraGra247:
Nobody believes in Atiku either.

Atiku is corrupt.

BBuhari is economically incompetent

Then vote Sowore 2019.

He's an Ivy League Grad. You know it's not easy to get admission into an Ivy league University.

If really the youths and the rest of Nigeria are tired of recycling politicians, then 2019 is our chance to Take It Back.

If not, who will they present to us next? Tinubu? Babangida? Saraki? Oshiomole?

Nigeria will never ever ever progress with all these characters and we all know it, so whats the point of wasting your vote on an Atiku or Buhari if by 2023, Nigeria still:

-averages a power generation figure of below 4,000MW, when other countries are reaching 200,000MW and above with lower populations.

-faces security challenges, some as simple as police never responding on time to preventable crimes; always waiting till the crime is over before they show up for fear of their own safety, negligence of duty and really low motivation due to low pay.

-takes a long time to repair key critical road infrastructure around the country, even if it means using extremely cheap domestic labour to get the job done in record time. We know how long Lagos-Ibadan road has taken, 2nd Niger Bridge, Apapa road, Airport Road (This is now getting attention, thank goodness, after DECADES!!!) and so on.

-has a kitchen budget for the presidency in the billions in a supposed poor country, when if we are indeed poor, every member of the executive ought to pay out of pocket. If you can't force the senate and house of rep members to be moral in their expenditures, you can at least take charge in drastically cutting down the budget of the executive, since we are a poor country they say.

-faces preventable traffic in major cities due to ignorance and lawlessness of drivers aided by the total and complete lack of consistent enforcement of law and order as is obtained in saner climes by enforcement agents.

...


There is no point in voting for an Atiku or a Buhari, there is no future for Nigeria in either of these two characters, whom WE HAVE ALREADY TRIED BEFORE.

Even as babies growing up, we developed an instinctive avoidance of danger. No one told us twice not to touch fire, no one told us twice not to play with electricity sockets. So why is it now as adults, that we seem to have lost this instinct to avoid danger? We know the dangers for the country in recycling old politicians, so why do it again? why?

Sowore 2019

Biingoo:
Goan drink acid na so you can experience the full dose of chemistry. Olosho!

why are you so angry?

Election campaign has started
