babaolofin:
99% of what you wrote is wrong. They challenged Trump. I thought you are very exposed. People around me are just laughing. You said in Parliamentary System any party trustee member that disagree with elected Prime Minister which is elected at the Parliament will leave the party for the Prime Minister. You said the President (Republican or Democrat) in US cannot be challenged on issue based on Democracy in US. That is too childish.

This is a public forum you should not expose your ignorance.

Re-read what I wrote. I never said the President (Republican or Democrat) in US cannot be challenged or that a prime minister cannot be challenged. What I said was that he cannot be challenged by members of his own party as the party leader. It is either they have enough members to pass a vote of no confidence (or impeach the president) or the party member resigns.

Please name republicans that challenged Trump during his presidency. Yes I know liz Cheney and very few other voted to condemn trump during the Jan 6 insurgency, but that was a few days before leaving office.

wink2015:
Allow him to speak out his feeling.

Abandoning Tinubu at this crucial period is one of the biggest Fulani betrayal.

When Buhari was looking for vote in the south west in 2015 after three failed attempt at securing the presidency.

It was Tinubu that he turned to who readily offered him votes from the south west.

Why show so much ingratitude to Tinubu at this moment.

THIS IS THE HEIGHT OF FULANI BETRAYAL.

So how many votes did the South West give Buhari that you guys are always screaming " Tinubu singlehandedly made Buhari president "

Buhari beat Jonathan in the South West with about 600,000 votes,and the margin of victory was about 2,400,000 votes.

babaolofin:
Abiola cannot be left out of this. You don't know what happened in 1983. I am talking of what happened in 1983 under democracy, you are talking of what happened in 1993. IBB never denied Abiola's participation in election. I have read 'The Prince' it has nothing to do with this. You are a kid. Atiku as VP fought Obj, Abubakar Umar fought Obj.

No member of the same party can fight a sitting president (or governor) in the same party and hope to remain in that party. Even in the parliamentary system where the prime minister is not supreme, anyone that falls out with the prime minister resigns.

In developed countries, political power is not absolute. People fought Trump, even in Russia, people fought Putin. In Europe, people challenge powers if power is misused.

Which republican could challenge Trump when he was President? What can challenge Putin and survive the next few months in Russia. Putin even goes after those that fled the country.

The Prince" by niccolo machiavelli and other mafia and power politics books I have read have nothing to do with political environment in their countries.

We can never isolate Abiola out of this.

If you have read The Prince, you will know that he recommended destroying those that helped the King attain power.

CutieKing:
Make una rest abeg.buhari nah God?? That nobody can talk about?.
What is extraordinary in what tinubu said?.
Am sure buhari himself won't read too much meaning to all this talk but you people want to cry more than the bereaved.
Shame.!!!

Watch out for the next few days to see if Buhari won't read meanings to Tinubu’s remarks.

lionofafrica12:
Tinubu did not say anything that was wrong against Buhari nor against Gov. Abiodun, the only thing he failed to do because of poor managers around him was not being able to say that these 2 Individuals that he helped to power were high performers. He was able to get them to power because he was astute enough to help in their selection and eventual ascension to power. Gov Abiodun is a performer in Ogun state and the alternative will have been bad for the people of Ogun state but Asiwaju was able to help the people of Ogun state to make the right choice( that was what he needs to be talking about). Can anyone point to a person helped by Tinubu to power that has been swallowed by scandal or corruption. Tinubu need to sell himself as someone who has eyes for Talent and has helped those people to get to power and helped their people.
Asiwaju and the rest of the party allowed Buhari to have absolute control of the party for too long and this is what they have to deal with. The greatest mistake that he made was not serving in this government( he should have been in charge of a Ministry and do a good job or being the chairman of the party( as soon as he was not made the VP in 2015- he should have assumed the position of the party chairman instead of the powerless and irrelevant position of National Party Leader.

Listen to Tinubu's remarks once again without blinkers in your ears and tell me if he was not referring to Buhari and Abiodun in a condescending manner.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EkefBmDsh7s

In the presidential system of government, the president has near absolute control of the party at the national level and the governors at the state level.

babaolofin:
I am still waiting for the lecture. I want to know the type of Higher Institution where you graduated as it would be shown in your political analysis.

Because Abiola demanded for a Primary in 1983, Umaru Dikko told him Presidency is not for the highest bidder. It was that crisis that made Abiola to leave NPN.

Start your case study here, let us analyze it.

Leave Abiola out of this. Abiola did not insult the sitting president, even though Abiola was instrumental to IBB ascending to the throne. Abiola was far more matured than Tinubu.

Go and read "The Prince" by niccolo machiavelli. You will realize tinubu has committed a mortal sin by directly challenging power.

Take it from me, Tinubus political career is over.

15ssDRIVE:
Boss,
Tinubu na my favorite,that doesn’t mean him no get Bleep up.

But when it’s about unifying,leave am for Tinubu. Ask all those men you mentioned above,dem go tell yob say, na Tinubu bring us together.

Good luck to the best candidate. But me na BAT2023 with all love.

Please can you tell me why Tinubu is your favourite.
Now watch this video and tell me if you really think Tinubu has the physical and mental fortitude to be president

AntiWailer:
Lol. Very ignorant generation.

President Obama

President Bush

President Trump

That is how America address their Presidents Ex or Current.

No big deal or need for a dumb conspiracy theory.

Pure ignorance. Presidents, Senators, Generals, ambassadors retain the title for life.

Freerhyme1:
I see the EFCC coming for Tinubu after APC primary, I see him going to jail, just like the case of Abiola, this I have seen

Tinubu messed up big time. The way he denigrated Buhari was most uncalled for. Buhari might strike back to let Tinubu understand the enormous power a president wields. Even Dapo Abiodun was not happy the way Tinubu addressed him. Imagine a whole "His Excellency " being treated like a house boy. He might also take his pound of flesh.

If you like Tinubu advice him to go and beg Buhari with the excuse that he was high and then apologise Dapo Abiodun.

It was Amaechi that brought them together. Tinubu never supported nor liked Buhari. Amaechi as governor of rivers state had to fly to lagos - Bourdillon Road to prostrate for tinubu to support Buhari. Tinubu was almost supporting Jonathan again.

OriOko88:
Mumu.. So it was Tinubu who opened fire at the lekki toll gate protesters. Some of u are just emotionally retarded,not objective in opinion for once. You said he's corrupt, tell me one Nigerian who's not corrupt..even your Father isnt left out. If you had been in his shoe,won't u reacted more that this,oyinbo said,whom much is given,much is expected. Tinubu has given much to apc,then much is expected from apc to him.

He should have been given the ticket on first refusal if APC had get sense. Tinubu single handedly brought APC to power.. He made the move for d coalison of those parties that make up APC. So stop hating and get some sense!

So APC has not given anything to Tinubu? Name another politician apart from the president that had gained more from APC than Tinubu. Maybe until Buhari gives Tinubu Aisha and the governors he claimed to have made their wives before we can agree that APC has given anything to Tinubu. Apart from the V.P and numerous ministerial appointments, there are lots of appointments to boards of parastatals that APC assignee to Tinubu. In fact there is no parastatal without a Tinubu appointed loyalist.

Lies Tinubu did not single handedly bring APC to power. Four blocks were responsible Goe bringing APC to power.
1 AC led by Tinubu
2. nPDP led by Amaechi
3. CPC led by Buhari. CPC already had the North West in its pocket)
4. sprinklers of APG led by Okorocha.

Amaechi, Kwankwaso and Atiku played as much role as Tinubu in bringing APC to power.

iCauseTrouble:
Apart from it is my turn that Tinubu has been shouting, what other manifesto of Tinubu do you know?

My broda, he shock me o. How can someone's political point be "I made people governors
and presidents, so its my turn". Is that how democracy is supposed to work?

BlackBaron:
Infantile statement.

I am Yoruba and I never like Tinubu. People be treating this man like a a god, prostrating and act like he's beyond reproach.

Same man that hasn't spared Lagos treasury, private jet and colossal wealth from God knows where.

Cronies, families and allies in positions all over the SW plus armies of thugs as election foot soldiers.

Don't mind them. They are either paid sycophants, agberos or people who has benefited from his political industry. They are beginning to make Tinubu like an Emperor. He expects everyone to bow before him.

Tinubus brand of politics is all that is wrong with Nigerian politics. He uses money and thuggery to accumulate power, money siphoned from Lagos (and other South West states). You cannot drive around lagos anymore without harassment from Agberos, LASMA, VIO, Local Council Officials, and many others you can't even identify. How and why people will vote for Tinubu is a mystery that requires scientific study.

Slynation:
Just see the way paid promoters have overtaken this platform just to install their ancestor to rule over them just like they did to their grandfathers and fathers...

I can only wish them goodluck in there quest...

These paid promoters are not smart. Just check their profiles, they were all registered on the same day - March 21 2021.

Mangekyo:
Inasmuch as I would hate it for Tinubu to become president (from fry pan to fire; I might even flee the country if he does), I think it would be fair to conduct a primary. H aba, in as much as I dislike him, how he go feel if this man who has been looking forward to being president for half of his life is deprived because some murthfuckas from nowhere just popped out nowhere and brush him aside illegally.... In the name of consensus? Buhari should do the right
Tinubu will never be president, it just cannot happen. But at least let his defeat be the one that even he would accept. No need for cheating

Primaries are anything but fair in Nigeria. Tinubu will be ready to empty Lagos State Treasury just to buy the delegates. Just like Wike almost emptied Rivers state Treasury in an attempt to get nominated.

Gbengaoluz:
That was extreme on Same citizens who voted you into power

If votes really matters in Nigeria the government would not dare to carry out such insensitive action one year to a general election.

The number of people that would be rendered helpless by this action runs into millions. From people that lease out bikes on hire purchase to jobless men using the okada business to feed their families.
There are better ways to gradually ease out okada business taking cognisance of the immediate social and economic impact.

Obafavour:
Human evolve from hominidae that existed 23 million years ago, hominidae evolved from catarrhines that existed 30 million years ago, cattarhines evolved from oligocene that existed almost 40-45 millions years ago.
Now what does oligocene evolved from?

You can go back on and on until I or scientists say "I don't know". You can then employ the God of the Gaps

Obafavour:
The present apes, chimapazees, gorillas e.t.c evolve from what?

Inconsistencies

Auto predictive text.

Not every scientists believe in evolution.

Then which scientist has proposed an alternative theory to the origin of species?

Your a fool for believing that I haven't opened physics and biology in my life.
I was first in science class at secondary school.
I got first position in mathematics from JSSS1 to SSS3 mafo

It's good you said science and secondary school. You scientific knowledge is limited to elementary general science.
Your Biology is atrocious.

Brain size, brain to body weight ratio don't determine how intelligent an animal is.

Let's see your report on what determines intelligence among different species.

Lol.
Just say you never knew it. The continents were already separated and named before you were born.

Senseless rant. I last did geography in school over 30 years ago. Besides continents

I accept because there's evidence that really the world was classified into seven continents and I see it on maps.

What do you mean there's evidence for classifying the world's landmass into seven continents? The classification is simply the most widely accepted by geographers and most geologists. Some geologists disagree and classify Europe and Asia as one continent- Eurasia. Others classify New Zealand as a separate continent.

I accept that water boils at 100⁰c at sea level because I've tested it myself. Everyone accepts as well.
But when you start making up story about incidents that happened 6 millions years without testable evidence, I gotta ignore it.

What testable evidence do you expect for an event that happen 6 million years ago? Traveling back in time to take videos?

Science has made life easy for all of us today. Thanks to all the scientists, especially those that believe in God

The bigbang and evolution theory didn't pass the scientific method in the image below

I have asked you for an alternative theory or even hypothesis on the origin of species and also the red shift of distant galaxies and the cosmic microwave background.

Obafavour:
lol..... evironmental factor, and there're still apes, or e never reach their side?

Humans are biologically classified as a member of the Hominidea (great ape) family.

MaxInDHouse:
BRAINWASHING don overtake brainwashing!

When people choose to think straight it's then their minds could simply could not grasp simple scientific matters but when they decide to go blind to the fact that science has failed to attempt the study of how humans can cohabit peacefully on the same planet only to embrace what mankind has achieved in technology where mankind has continue to hunt themselves then they become intelligent to you guys!

Brainwashing? Which one is brainwashing between you that was conquered and forced to bow down before foreign gods or learning on how the physical world works in order to make life more meaningful.

Who told you that science has failed to attempt the study of how humans can cohabit peacefully on the same planet? Have you never heard of psychology and sociology?

What has mankind achieved with technology? I don't believe I am reading this? You want to compare the quality of life now and during the time of Jesus or Moses? Life right now is more peaceful than at anytime during the bible period.

Human had always been hunting themselves from the very beginning. Even with all the conflicts and wars going on today, this period still remains the most peaceful when compared with the past.

Religion had been the most source of war and conflict in world history.

cornelboy:
First, their research can't explain the difference in the intellectual abilities of man and apes -chimps for example.
Secondly, not every scientists old/modern believe in evolution theory.
Thirdly, similarity in chimp and human DNA and genome is not solid testable evidence that they evolved from the same ancestors.
If that is in any way true, there should be some apes today that are smart and intelligent like humans.

How are you guys able to know something that happen 6 millions years ago?

See response. Why not just admit that you can't even read the quoted article before even attempting to understand the concepts being discussed.

Fatherofjesus, you wicked o. You want burst person brain? You want teach primary one person differential equations?
He can't understand anything beyond let there be light, I am the alpha and omega, male and female he created them, give your life to Jesus, etc, and such simple concepts that don't require any intellectual energy. You can dey discuss genome.

FatherOfJesus:
did you read it?
Tell me the truth. God hate liars

I don't even think he lied deliberately. I think he is unable to grasp complex subjects. His mind could simply could not grasp simple scientific matters.

cornelboy:
I checked all the sites including sciencefocus.com , there are still a lot of inconsistencies.

If humans brain to body ratio is 1:50, what are the brain to body ratio of other apes. I didn't see it on the net.
I don't think the brain to body ratio of apes should exceed 1:60-1:80. It can't still explain the reason why there's huge gap between humans intellectual abilities and those of apes.


Love your fairy tales. They are ridiculous tbh.


How you guys were able to know what happened millions of years ago is what I'm still wondering about


It would remain a theory. It can't be proved as facts.

There are how many continents in the world today, 6 or 7?

You have checked sites including sciencefocus.com and you found inconveniences . You an absolute ignoramus when it comes to science. Books that leading scientists penned down after decades of research and you that had only read the bible and never opened a book on biology or physics in your life found inconsistencies? That's what they call arrogance in ignorance.

Yes. There are 7 continents. I forgot to separate south and north America. My 10 old corrected me. That still doesn't make you less ignorant on science.

The irony is you accept the current scientific classification on continents but "found inconsistencies " in all others including physics and biology. How many continents did your only scientific manual suggest?

cornelboy:
Sperm whale for example has the largest brain and yet their intellectual abilities is same as other small fishes.
That means that the size of brain doesn't matter.
Pls where'd got all these your assumptions from?

Intelligence is determined by brain to weight ratio rather than absolute brain size.
https://www.sciencefocus.com/nature/why-arent-animals-with-larger-brains-more-intelligent-than-us/amp/

Ridiculous
So the people in hostile Savannah of Africa felt like they needed to make tools and they started growing the opposite thumb just like that ROTFLMAO.

Not people, Hominids in Africa evolved bi-pedalism (upright stance), opposing thumb among other features for survival among the tall grass of the Savannah. His hands became free to do other tasks apart from walking.

Why haven't we been evolving new things since then?
It'd be great if we started evolving wings and fly na

Evolution is a very slow process and is driving by environmental factors. You can never notice evolution within one generation and even within 10 generations. As the environment change, a creature must be able to evolve to cope, else the creature will become extinct.
Evolving wings will not aid our survival. We would need to lose bone mass and start living on trees or mountain tops.

Are you also saying that the human race started in Africa?

Are you telling me you are not aware that all humans came from Africa?

Allisgud:
quiet all this u claim he brought to Nigeria,hope u have a stable light ever since then,the econet he brought do u know how many billions was selfishly and corruptly added to his account,hope the Amala and ewedu they serve u at apc pry will serve u for 8 years

He did not bring econet to Nigeria. His government only invested in it just like Ibori and dozens of others. Ibori can as well claim he brought econet to Nigeria.

gbemishile:
We don't care about ur opinion.its inconsequential

And your own opinion is consequential?

Originalsly:
Is Tinubu eloquent? This man is struggling to speak a complete sentence and you are talking eloquence. He is sick and living in the past. If he were sharp in the past ... fine... is he sharp now? To be raising he brought ENRON as if it were an achievement shows his brain is not working well and he is living in the past. Why? ENRON is one of the biggest fraudulent corporations in the history of America. What was the purpose of bringing ENRON?... was the purpose achieved? ENRON was fleecing Americans ... rolling blackouts their hallmark... how much did they fleece Nigerians?... thanks to Tinubu. All some of us can see is he brought foreign investors. He brought a fraudulent company... and is proud of it.... if elected.... who next? The man is obviously physically sick and mentally .... dementia bound.

Exactly. I am sure the whole Enron project was a scam. They brought diesel generators on floating rafts and said it was a power project. Till today we don't know the cost and details of the project.

Sonyboom:
Tinubu without mincing word said he brought Enron and Econet to this country while Peter Obi brought Pandora and Azu genocide.

Tinubu is just skirting the truth. Tinubu did not bring or have anything to do with a Econet coming to Nigeria. Strive Masiyiwa a Zimbabwean business man brought A comet to Nigeria. He bought the GSM license from Obasanjo's government for about $285 million, and brought in all the equipment. Strive Masiyiwa assembled a consortium of investors including two state governments - Tinubu and Ibori to be able to buy the license. bought. It was his refusal to give Ibori bribe that drove him from Nigeria.
You can read the full story here - https://infomediang.com/james-ibori-econet-fraud/

On Enron. Enron project was a failure from conception. You bring huge floating diesel generators and place them on the Lagos lagoon to generate electricity. That can only work as a shot term measure for small electricity supply. It can never be a permanent solution to electricity supply, transmission and distribution. Beside he never mention anything about transmission which was the subject he was discussing.
That the screening panel did not call out Tinubu on these outright falsehoods shows the whole screening is a charade.

cornelboy:
Truth that you evolved from ape to human

Truth is that you are just too ignorant to start a discussion with. My 10 year old is far more knowledgeable that you. He can at least name all the six continents. He is even aware that fish and other marine creatures came before land animals and would never say "when fish first enter water."

You guys attempt to hide your absolute ignorance with religion and dogmas.

When did the accident happen?
I drove past agric around 5.00PM towards ikorodu this evening, I didn't see any accident. The road was unusually free.

Salvador1:
Obi is the greatest loser here I must confess.

Henz81:
Explain

If Peter Obi had been more patient and calculative by just showing up. He would certainly have clinched the V.P. candidate slot. Atiku would have no other choice than to pick him again as running mate. An Atiku/Obi ticket would have been very difficult to defeat by APC, what ever their political machinations. A South East Igbo would then be Vice President with a very good opportunity of becoming president in the near future. Atiku is very old and could do a "Yaradua ", not be fit enough for a second term or even if he completed 8 years, Obi would be in a very strong position.
