Politics / Re: Before You Compare Amotekun With Hisbah... by WisdomFlakes: 8:40pm On Jan 18, 2020 |
Everybody should just calm down. The SW governors should send a bill to their respective state assemblies to legitimize the Amotekun outfit while the Northerners should also sit their behinds down and stop heating up the polity over a non-issue. Lagos has something similar to Amotekun (called 'Lagos Neighbourhood Safety Corps' -- see pictures from the launch of the outfit below) and nobody made a fuss about it. At the end of the day everybody go dey alright. 5 Likes 1 Share

Politics / Re: Makinde:::Ready To Waive Immunity To Face Any Corruption Charges by WisdomFlakes: 8:43am On Dec 24, 2019 |
Going by his uninspiring and populist utterances lately, I am beginning to think Governor Seyi might be a fluke and an 'empty suit' after all. You hardly hear him make cerebral statements about how he intends to develop human capacity in Oyo, or any innovative ideas on his intentions to industrialize and upgrade the cities within the state to modern standards to boost the state's GDP. No serious policy statement so far from him on the role technology would play in his policy thrust. In the midst of all the hype, I am still itching to hear him say anything to suggest that his reign would be any different from Ladoja's (whose only noteworthy legacy was prompt payment of salaries). Oyo needs a visionary who is willing to adopt innovative approaches to tackling its enormous challenges (and harping about 'fighting corruption' isn't one of them). I think he's getting carried away with all the adulation he is currently receiving while losing sight of the enormity of the responsibility placed on his shoulders. He's way too too exposed to be sounding more and more like a glorified Fayose (who saw and treated Ekiti people as perpetually downtrodden folks whom are content with mediocrity and deserving of no more than mere handouts). Seyi, please step up your game. You can do way better. 7 Likes 1 Share |

The AutoJosh fellow that did a biased thread about Nigerian roads lost his credibility to me because he was very biased. He could have been more balanced but rather chose to toe the line of sensationalism. 1 Like |

Politics / Re: Aggrieved NEC Members Ask Oshiomhole To Resign. by WisdomFlakes: 4:38am On Nov 23, 2019 |
wengerjay: Had APC lost either Bayelsa or Kogi, the blame for such loss would have been heaped on Oshiomhole (be that justified or not, that's just the nature of politics, and I imagine his enemies must have been hoping for such outcome). It's for the same reason that those electoral victories are also being credited to him. Though it appears the battle line has been drawn between he and his foes within the party, but it remains to be seen how successful the calls for his resignation would be. 3 Likes |
Politics / Re: Aggrieved NEC Members Ask Oshiomhole To Resign. by WisdomFlakes: 4:29am On Nov 23, 2019 |
If APC had lost either of the last two recently held elections, Oshiomhole's position would have been seriously threatened (as is the case with his PDP counterpart, Uche Secondus after last weekend's election). But under the present circumstance, it will be tough for his opponents to justify their call for him to resign because he and the party are in a position of strength at the moment. The arguments against him sound hollow in light of that. 44 Likes 3 Shares |

So far I am yet to be impressed by this Makinde fella, though I will still hold out on judging him till at least middle of his tenure. So far his policies seem to be based on impulse rather than being well thought out (like this latest one he just rescinded). He should show some concrete policy direction that will define his administration rather acting on impulse just to keep his praise-singers happy. Governance is serious business. But it's still early to judge him so we'll see how it all goes. 3 Likes |

Politics / Re: ATIKU, PETER OBI Ignore Ekweremadu Attack, Remain Silent by WisdomFlakes: 10:08am On Aug 19, 2019 |
The likes of Peter Obi and some other SE polticians were cuddling Ipob for political reasons so it shouldn't come as a surprise if Obi's currently mute concerning Ike's recent disgrace (that is besides the fact that Obi may still be grudging Ike for not initially supporting his VP candidacy). The few ones that dared to stand up to them (like Obiano and Okorocha) were quickly marked and ostracized in the region. It's no secret that the top echelons of the PDP leadership (including Ekweremadu and Atiku) gave iPob tacit support and legitimacy prior to the last general elections; that was the basis of Kanu's almost last minute lifting of his 'order' against voting in the SE region. The likes of Ihedioha are being careful at this point. The SE political establishment have unwittingly created a monster that is now threatening their very own security. 7 Likes |

SoNature: Sad but true. Foreigners tend to see more opportunities in Nigeria than Nigerians themselves. Remember those illegal immigrant Chinese that were caught extracting gold and other stuff from e-waste in Lagos the other time. I recall they said they didn't want to leave Nigeria after their visas expired because they saw lots of opportunities here. 13 Likes 1 Share |

If the account of this vanguard report is true, then I will urge Obaseki to start preparing to port to another party because it appears he's not willing to compromise or reach a truce with the other faction in the state. He can go and test his popularity under another party, with PDP being his best bet. He won't be the first, neither will he be the last to do such. Ortom and Tambuwal did that and it worked for them in the end. |
