[b]You can never make it make sense for a person who is locked on self deceit. [/b]They will still come and insult you for this later.

Indeed bro. This is what I hate about Nigeria. How politically unsophisticated, emotional, bigoted and bereft of ability to think critically many Nigerians are.

Our relatively poor and ethnically adversarial human resources really will ensure our nation stagnates for far longer than she needs to because generally, in sane climes, people know to give credit where due and put private opinions and emotions aside to support what is in the best interests of society.

In Nigeria hatred of themselves, along ethnic lines, will never allow some acknowledge what is in the best interests of society once such is being implemented by those they hate.

Because of hatred of Tinubu, and the need to malign and deny him of performance credit always, some did not even think before backing Amaechi's claim whereas this is 100% about the legendary vision of Tinubu.

It makes perfect sense to some Tinubu who, as Governor, conceived the Lekki deep Seaport and approved Lagos land for its construction , plus drew the plans, seeking to improve the wealth of his State and Nigeria, deserves no credit at all.

It make sense to them Tinubu be viewed as playing no part and Amaechi, whose project the duty fell upon to supervise once Buhari had approved it, should take credit for it.

Are we with not dealing with insanity here? We have a loooooooooong way to go in Nigeria sha.

boxypane:
Was the Amaechi not under the same APC as Minister? Was he in ADC or NDC?

Don't mind them. Only dumb folks will not know Nigerian political Parties are not about institutional integrity.

Any intelligent person knows Nigerian Political Parties are about individual and who is heading the Party.

Evidence is how Amaechi, Obi, Atiku have swopped Parties at least three times. Imagine Atiku's case where he even went back to PDP after leaving to join ACN and APC.


Go to the UK and USA and you will find many remain in the same Party they joined till retiring from politics.

I actually despair for Nigeria because of how politically unsophisticated and incapable of working with reality Nigerians are.

Dey shout APC, PDP, NDC, ADC up and down when, in reality, these Parties are just vehicle for some to gain political office.

Whereas many join Political Parties in established democracies because the philosophy of the Party aligns with their own and how they wish to lead.

DatNiggaDaz:


Truth is coming out. No wonder Ameachi was able to persuade them with Laptops singing darling daddy and New Sheriff in town

You can tell lies to decieve yourself and one day the truth will catch up with receipts. The faaakkee certttiffficcate hollldderr built virtually nothing in Lagos. Just looting with bullion vans with that his Lebanese krook.

Joke. Who conceived the project, allocated land for it and drew plans for the Lekki deep sea port?

Tinubu or Amaechi? This is why you guys fall short. You only know how to play politics of toxicity once you hate a person or people.

Like it or not, Amaechi is merely effectively part of the construction crew while Tinubu who conceived the project, and Buhari who decided to build it, can legitimately take credit for Lekki deep seaport that has zero to do with Amaechi.

I am the property developer who sees the vision, buys the hectares of land and drew the plans for the Estate. You, the mere builder I commissioned to deliver my vision, run around trying to take glory for it whereas you were merely my employee. Make it make sense.

femoree2:
Why didn't you build it in Rivers State? Buhari approved it Lagos provided the location the contractor built it .author=ogododo post=140859627]

https://www.vanguardngr.com/2026/10/i-built-lekki-deep-seaport-tinubu-sanwo-olu-took-glory-amaechi/

Absolutely. Well-said bro. The TInubu Government, while he was Governor, conceived it. Buhari decided to build the project.

As transport Minister, Amaechi simply has to work on what is put on his desk by Buhari.

His claim Tinubu and Sanwo Olu are taking credit for the project is dumb because Tinubu conceived the project and some President would have approved it's actualisation someday.

Whoever is transport Minister, when a President approves the construction of the Lekki deep sea port, would have been obligated to supervise it's construction because that is their job.

Amaechi is being clever by half because he knows many Nigerians are ignorant, emotional and cannot think critically.

We see that with responses on this thread whereas any averagely bright person knows Amaechi is merely a Minister obligated to supervise any project his boss puts on his table.

A lot of Nigerians are glorified olodos who do not know how Governance work. Amaechi did not build Lekki deep seaport.

Amaechi merely supervised it's construction after President Buhari approved work on it to begin. Tinubu conceived it and Buhari built it.

Amaechi was merely a Minister, same as Umahi is to PBAT, who must supervise whatever construction project he is put in charge of by the boss, Mr.President, who decides projects to be executed.

How can you claim to build something you did not conceive nor gave approval for it's construction?

This mad talk of Amaechi would.be same as Umahi, contesting for elections in future, say he built the Lagos-Calabar Coastal highway and not Tinubu.

Abegi shift enter gutter. Your president and his minions from Hades did worse than this to Jonathan and yet he never hounded them like the drug lord is doing to his opponents.

Seems you can't read and comprehend because my point is crystal. I have not told you to not insult Tinubu?

Do it and do it to your hearts content. Even Tinubu knows it and has himself said "Nigerians insult the Hell out of me".

Yet spokesperson of the opposition, a Journalist interviewing the President etc should show decorum and respect by keeping language civil and respectful with recognition of protocols that informs them to call him names benefitting of his office like President Tinubu or Mr.President.

helinues:
It simply means they are insensitive and immature.

If not that we are enjoying democracy in Nigeria, some people would have been picked for disrespecting the office of the Nigeria president

The section 308 of the 1999 constitution can take care of those who are disrespecting the office of the Nigeria president

Don't mind them. How can anyone, in the course of their Profession that puts them in contact with the President, whether an interviewer or Journalist or Professional host talking about him, Rufai Oseni for example, not understand they owe the office of our number respect?

This is the thing I hate about Nigeria. Everyone revels in bad behaviour and uncouthness plus lack of finesse and class as we see on even this thread with some encouraging professionals to disrespect our President when those people are supposed to be bound over by world's best practice standards of conducts in their field.

VOsimhen144:
But you same APC supporters were singing the praises of that old fuul wole soyinka when he went on national TV to call Goodluck Jonathan’s wife a “Shippopotamus”

You APC supporters followed Fake Old fuul pastor Adeboye and Thief.nubu to do 1000 match for Goodluck Jonathan out of office, una even carry casket ⚰️ for Goodluck

Don't you get the difference? Anywhere in the world, perhaps Russia and a few others the exception , Private citizens can speak rudely of their President.

Those with professions that see them engaging with the President publicly, Journalist, spokesperson for the opposition like Paul Ibe etal) should address the President with respect to Preserve the dignity of his office and status as our number one.

Many employed Nigerians are never examples of displaying highest or even average standards of job professionalism so why should Ibe's idiocy surprise me.or your own uncouth support of it.

See all of them from the region with zero culture of respect commending the dumb and uncouth Ibe.

It should be President Tinubu or Mr.President.

Same as it is usually Mr.President or President Trump. Ditto Prime Minister Burnham. It is official decorum those engaged in politics publicly, directly or otherwise, should observe for the obvious reasons that the number 1 of a nation should be spoken of or addressed respectfully in public.

Anyway, it won't bother PBAT. He has the the Presidency for another 5 years he will continue using to reshape Nigeria, while they only have insults and curses to use and make themselves feel better over being losers.

FatimaAbubakar:
You're talking rubbish

In short you have no fitting response. Typical.

AMINDA:
Tinubu has no single organic supporter.

Knew I'd find you here. You who God has blessed with a modicum of intellect is in a daft bait thread hanging out and rolling around gleefully in the Mud with those who live there 24/7 joyously.

This is how those respected for being intelligent or productive contributors lose credibility.

Odin13:
Insult because he said a reality..

Una Dey try

What reality? You are an elder here yet I have never seen you act or talk like one

For clarity, are you saying it would be the normal thing for Yorubas to love GRV when, on several occasions, he shown disdain and thingly-veiled hatred of them?

Can/should a black man embrace and love a Ku Klu Klan racist and even vote him to lead his State?

You guys, if proper adults, should make these things make sense because Yorubas are not acting coldly towards any non-Yorubas except GRV who has gone out of his, and such has been proven, to show he dislikes us.

If things were reversed we know the hell the Yoruba/Igbo man who wants to lead Anambra would be recieving, up to death threat and even physical attacks, had he said similar to GRV against Igbos.

Ttalk:
You woke up and decided to concort this gibberish in your heart when everyone is hustling for other daily bread, it this how empty your head is that you can't think of anything that can better your insecure life?

They don't even take a minute to think before rushing to post to confirm how unreasonable they are.

Can they love and support a half Yoruba-half Igbo who wants to lead Anambra or Imo yet has shown on many occasions he hates Igbos and has mocked them with slur words? They should make their reasoning make sense because GRV got what he deserves with his open disdain and dislike he has showed Yorubas.

Afterall Yorubas are the ones significantly voting for non-Yorubas most to the extent Obi won Lagos while they give Obi 99%. Of their votes.

Who then does facts and stats show are discriminatory and intolerant? Certainly not Yorubas for those who respect what facts and reality show us clearly.

FatimaAbubakar:
Nollywood veteran actor, Ramsey Noah has claimed that he's Yoruba because his mother is from Ondo, despite the fact that his father is a foreigner. Many of the cheap shameless propagandists of APC have applauded him for his stance. But watch these same shameless propagandists make his origin a controversy the day he declares support for Peter Obi. That day, they'll tell you that his mum is either from Anambra or Abia State.

You guys should drop the lies and deceit. The entire world knows Obidients are the most "shameless propagandists" alive.

There is no pattern whatsoever of APC supporters hounding anyone. In fact they are far more inclusively tolerant than Obidients and virtually all else.

Continuously making false claims , because of GRV, shows the patent unfairness of you guys.

With his mouth, he said he does not think in Yoruba, used a slur word to mock his own so-called ethnic group and has done so much to make it crystal he does not like Yorubas and is passionately Igbo.

Do you want Yorubas to love those who hate them? Can you lot do so? I'e love and support your proven enemy to lead you instead of a confirmed competent and reasonable who will be good to all be they Igbo or Yoruba?Rather than one who has shown open favouritism towards an ethnic group ,I.e Igbos, and disdain for Yorubas.

I just don't understand how a People can so patently and naturally unreasonable to the extent they can never put themselves in the shoes of other.

aariwa:
Exactly 100% on point. Which foreign investors would look at the way they destroyed thousands of Igbo properties after the 2023 elections because their opposition Obi is from Igbo tribe coupled with the weak ludo ping pong judiciary and still decides to invest in such country? ….that’s the reason why 4 years after the tribal awalokan mandate thief traveled to dubai, Saudi Arabia, Malaysia etc seeking “foreign investors “ and all the promises made to him to invest billions in Nigeria lol….more than 3 years after they have not invested even $10 because they see what is happening in Nigeria and are not mumu

Rubbish. You guys are pathological when it comes to lies and exaggeration. Especially against the Yorubas who generally never have your time.

"Thousands" of properties" were never destroyed. Stop lying trying give a Dog a bad name to hang it.This is how your compatriots here on NL will be lying Yorubas are killing and attacking us in Lagos. Trying to create the mage we hate you and are savages.

I don't even understand how hard it is to stay away from those you claim hate you. Same outcome in Ghana, South Africa etc because everyone "hates" and are "envious" of you.

Look at this idiotes


Any one not Ibo still supporting this Ibo supremacist needs their heads examined.

The thing choke bro !!! Hook neck completely sef like John Cena stranglehold. Obi has lost it completely !!! Lunatic things !!!

donself9:
Really you wana talk about Dishonesty Coming from an attorney of à maa gbe wa lé

Coming from a defender of govt that said Our Refinery is back and working even when caught pants down they've not apologized... you want to talk about Dishonesty

i am not holding brief for Amaechi but the man is entitled to believe whatever he wants to believe just the same Way you believe Tinubu macro economic index has made your life better

You dont have right to discredit another man who feels Tinubu policies killed his mother .. Do you know how much drug medications cost me now for my grandma compared to 2022

if i don't love my grand mother enough or she has no children that can stand by her ..she will be dead,

That Tinubu's policies have ended lives is not something we can falsify

I argue/debate clinically and logically always, in respect of the facts, even if such favours someone I do not like.

This is clearly something most Nairalanders are incapable of doing going by your bolded bereft of logical sense.

For the bolded to be true, I e Tinubu policies have ended lives, bearing in mind we are talking specifically of the healthcare sector here because I know how bias against certain leaders make some of you jump around from one claim to another. Let's inspect the details.

Please how can it be accurate, even if most Nairalanders are illiterate, for anyone to claim. "that Tinubu's policies have ended lives is not something we can falsify" yet the verified facts is that PBAT has improved healthcare he met on ground meaning , in real terms and logically, more lives would have been saved under him and not ended with Nigerians also enjoying better healthcare?

Look, a patently decent person is fair to all, to include his enemies, and respects facts. Tinubu has improved on what Amaechi's boss, PMB, left on ground admirably. Fact.

You can remain here saying the opposite. You only reveal to balanced folks you have a problem and are incapable of rising above prejudice against others.

Amaechi should not be talking. The Tinubu regime, in over 3 years, has done far more than his Buhari regime managed in 8 years. Fact.

kedeojo:
Honestly, opposition died after 2015. I will continue to give kudos to apc. There is even a greater and better time for this lazy opposition to take advantage of the masses complain who many cant be patient any longer.

Unfortunately, opposition has nothing to offer. They are worse.

Tinubu is implementing reforms economic technocrats globally all unilaterally agree Nigeria must implement to begin the move towards developed nation status.

We must remember also all previous Presidents avoided these reforms because they always had eyes on re-election instead of doing what is best for Nigeria and the future of our generations unborn.

PBAT is a great man and leader. I can understand the average Nigerian may not understand that because unavoidable reforms other Presidents put off for far too long, Tinubu has now had to implement rather than allow Nigeria collapse totally, has come with unavoidable hardship I believe are temporary.

Yet the sincere truth is that opposition should stop the bad politics. They know what must be done that was not done for decades and Tinubu is doing.

Desperado Atiku pledges to return fuel subsidy whereas educated Nigerians know this will be a disaster yet such pledge will resonate well with ordinary Nigerians , largely economically illiterate, who simply believe cheap fuel makes their life cheaper but do not understand they should be living far better than they are in comparison to others worldwide.

Under Tinubu, we are moving how Singapore did to transform into a first world nation whereas they were a former colony of the UK same as us.

Today Singapore is stupendously far above us with some of the best education in the world, superb infrastructure, healthcare, professional job opportunities, celebrated lifestyle that sees the nation constantly voted one of the best to live in the world etc to the extent the Brits, their former colonial masters, are relocating to Singapore for better lives !!!

We must be careful in Nigeria. Tinubu has chosen to bite the bullet for us and the educated amongst us should support him robustly letting other Nigerians know the future is very rosy. Enough to transform Nigeria into the nations Nigerians always dream they will japa to.

Important to inform burdened and perhaps less-educated Nigerians that the vastly better lives they deserve cannot come without sacrifice, here and now because of what at least 4 Presidents since 1999 knew had to be done but have failed to do and one President, in a rush to take Nigeria to developed nation status, is now implementing simultaneously.

:::


To be fair- You can't post a random car and call it amachi's car without evidence - even though I know the shameless amachi that uses his mother's death for political clout can probably afford more than this.

Man that collected billions in Chinese loans for a rail that leads to "nowhere" funds still unaccounted for.

He couldn't afford health care for his mom- what a joker.

:::

This is my problem. Their patronage of the intellect of Nigerians. Amaechi want to now claim he cannot afford decent healthcare for his mother and PBAT is responsible for his mum's death? How shameless and low.

Furthermore, fact is that the Tinubu Government, in less time, i.e 3 plus years, has done significantly better improving Nigerian healthcare than the Buhari Government Amaechi served for 8 years !!

Did he think of this crucial fact before speaking?

donself9:
You Apc loyalist often forget you are always trying to defend the undefendable

i zdont Agree with what Amaechi said, He is not poor and thats a clear fact But he might be speaking in parables

perhaps Amaechi Net worth is far below What a typical politician with his portfolio would have amassed. perhaps he see politicians not up to hin and sees their networth, but all that story he is hungry, his mother death are just llip words

Let not also forget Tinubu story about his friend that owns plenty cars but has sold almost everything to feed 🤣

What do you mean by that? Look, it is dishonest for Amaechi to use his mother's death play bad politics.

Especially against a President who has done better in the healthcare sector in 3.4 years than Buhari he served under for 8 years.

Amaechi can afford the finest healthcare for his mother and if he even wants to mischievously make this about public healthcare then he should blame Buhari for his mother's death since PBAT has only improved upon what he inherited from Amaechi's former boss I.e PMB.

Parachoko:
No Nigerian Politician worth a Billion Dollar

None of them is worth 500 million dollars sef

Yeah perhaps $1 billion USD is a tad high but you get my drift I.e Amaechi is very wealthy and can afford excellent healthcare for his mum rather than be dragging PBAT into his mischief-making.

Additionally, Amaechi is shameless given the incontrovertible fact Tinubu has done far better than his boss Buhari in the health sector with things continuing to improve.

Too many empty mischief-makers in Nigerian politics seeking power for the sake of it alone.

Lol. Atiku the desperado ready to say and pledge anything, however insane, to be President.

Does he not understand he has made enemies of of States Governors of Nigeria and the FCT Minister who will never wish to go back to smaller allocations, borrowing to pay salaries, negligible disbursement to carry out capital projects etc?

You fans of Atiku, like Aminda, make me laugh. Governors are powerless ba and it is all about Nigerians alone and dangling Carrots in front of them as Atiku believes he is doing winningly? Oya na. Let's go.


We will see how Atiku will defeat the finance, will and authority of a very powerful sitting President and over 30 APC Governors who are not willing to go back to borrowing to pay salaries and struggling to deliver capital projects.

All of which they are doing comfortably today because of fuel subsidy removal. Nigeria is a huge construction site today with virtually no State left out.

Na die Governors go die there Oga Atiku !!! Pour sand for their garri and dem go dey mumu look you? Oya na.

You goofed with the fuel subsidy removal pledge because you have always being a desperate and inconsiderate politician willing to say and do anything to reach Aso Rock. It is why you will never be President.

Lol. Amaechi don buy market with his toxic politics. Speaker for 8 years, Governor for 8 years and Minister for 8 years yet Tinubu's policy left you unable to afford healthcare for your mum and that is why she died ba?

Baba, dey think before you talk. This one na epic misyarn. You are likely not worth less than $1 billion USD.

Wike, always 💯 % behind PBAT, self don open you and your wife yansh. Shameless man trying to use his mum's death for political profit.

Wike revealed how Amaechi's wife, a so-called "industrialist ", was collecting 4 billion Naira monthly to train Niger Delta women in skill acquisition.


Amaechi and co really milked NDDC sha when it should have been glorious and pivotal development commission for the SS.

Yet he is busy shouting Tinubu up and down.

Remember that that double salary is still not enough to send your kids to a private university in Nigeria

It's a start though. What did others before PBAT do? You too need to remember that and give credit when due.

LagosOrigin:
Look at his name, I'm not surprised.

He's probably from Iragbiji in Osun state where the president originally comes from

Guy, can you not appreciate how you sound sometimes? You want Obi and Igbo President.

Yet you can never find it in your heart to praise any good development for Nigeria and Nigerians so far as it happens under "Iragbiji President".

Why should any Nigerian drop anything other than a positive comment over this announcement?

Richtaiwo:
God bless president Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR.
God bless the Armed Forces of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
Long live the Federal Republic of Nigeria

Indeed. Whatever increment in salary and emoluments our military gain is deserved.

Effort must continue to improve their pay, lives and welfare. Their job is one of the most important and riskiest in the World and it is time Government prioritise their wellbeing. Thank you PBAT for caring.

Pretty sure we will see improved efficacy from the Army and other armed forces personnel.

Richtaiwo:
And you, where do you come from?

Lol. Good response.
