pacesetting:
Your full-page reply shows you did not understand a thing about what I said. Again, it's not about Obi, Atiku, and Tinubu.

My concern is the way forward, and obviously Tinubu does not represent the way forward. It should be very clear to any sensible person that that the last election was severely marred and flawed, just like the previous ones. Nigeria is not ready yet.

Now you are disguising . Good we are getting somewhere. The last election was not all you mentioned just because one man who came third is sponsoring propaganda for mind control of his gullible followers, lieing unprovoked while attacking & discrediting every institution of Govt once things don’t go his way. Yes there is room for improvement, but was the best election we have had in the last 25 years— in my opinion. A new party usurped the major opposition, produced several legislators in the process. Yet you wan to rubbish every other person’s win just because you lost.m your own pursuit. It’s dubious, selfish and narcissistic. The court is the only place to prove your case, not hear-say, beer parlour rumour or emotions. Your lord, Obi knows this, but has bungled the case due to his usual all talk- no substance, tackiness and lack of preparation that has described his career since his days as Gov. That’s why he has looked for a new narrative, and is already weaponising the fickle emotion of you Obedients to start another victimhood meltdown. Be smart! You are being played by a master schemer.

pacesetting:
This particular case is about PDP and Atiku's case but you still managed to bring Obi into it. It shows your level of hatred. By the way, why has INEC refused to bring documents they used in declaring Tinubu the winner?

You all still think this is all about personal interests until the tables turn. In the past it was Obasanjo doing all the irregularities. Now he doesn't even have mouth to correct anyone because he was guilty of these same things when he was in power.

It's now Tinubu's turn after Buhari. After Tinubu, someone else will continue in the same manner, and Nigeria will keep moving in circles.

Politicians are doing all these, but people like you keep encouraging them, tagging everyone emotional.

The good thing is, we are all in it together.

“Hatred” , “Victim”, bla bla bla. These are the only words you guys use once anyone does not join in your emotional blackmail rollercoaster. The poster I replied already made it about your demi- god just like everyone of your fellow obidients screaming “Atiku knows he didn’t win” even without understanding the thread. But of course you’ll gladly ignore that in your usual victimhood and dishonesty. Your obviously dubious manipulator of a saint never had a case to begin with. You can cry all you want, your Obi is a pathological liar who is not different from all the other politicians you are placing him above. “INEC didn’t give him documents to nail them” ? Just hear yourselves. Always scheming and blaming and then result to petulant tirades when they beat you to your game. For a guy who boasted just weeks ago, he had evidence and will prove to everyone how we won the entire election. Only to result to manufacturing witnesses on the fly, doctoring evidence, etc. if you seek a position, you work, form alliances and bid your time, not reality to dark arts of character assassination of your opponents, weaponised the emotional imbalance and ignorance of a mob, cyber-bullying, propaganda and lies. It didn’t work then, it won’t work now in case you are not paying attention. You are not victims, you are just sore schemers who lost an election. Incompetent lots

YouandiAllofus:
This is about trust. Eyeneck and the aapc look more like two different arms of one same agency working together to achieve a common goal.

Simply because they are co-defendants in the case— as your lord and master joined them in the suit. The same way INEC defended the results that declared Adeleke winner in Osun against the APC. Never mind that, you can keep on being getting emotionally manipulated—- it’s the price to pay for lack of perspective. Obi has most of you where he wants you and will milk the herd ignorance with ruthless narcissistic expertise. He did not and is not winning anything, anywhere against anyone with this empty charade of his. He made so much mouth yet fumbled a basic case. As usual it’s everyone else’s fault not his nor the tactlessness of his legal team. The next thing for him to do is unleash his usual character assassination onslaught against the judges, and their families. You and other zealots will get riled up per usual, claim victims, run with another narrative for the next few weeks, but will only end in wailing and gnashing of teeth. Nothing else.

drugBaronTINUBU:

Goan check the profile of people Obi appointed when he was governor of Anambra
It's on record OBJ and Atiku govt assembled the best brains ever during their administration
Una go just sit down for ijebu ode dey expose una ignorance
No awareness, no exposure.
Tufiakwa

Which profile of people did he appoint? You can’t name them? All you guys do is wallow in envy and sorrow at the sight of progress, you start explaining what no one asked you, throwing a bunch of meaningless words around with no substance. Everything is a competition to you lots in your small parochial Minds. It’s not everything you stress yourself to give explanation to as no one asked you. You don’t seem to be paying attention yet, all your “go and verify” propaganda, IPOB themed character assassination techniques pre-election did not work, and it’s not about to start working. You can knock yourselves out with fallacies all you want, the folks you are dealing with (or rather dealing with you) are veterans in this game. Like it or not, seasoned private sector led leadership built on strong processes and know-how based on verifiable track records is what you’ll get going forward. Not packaging of frauds who masquerade as intellectuals.

So MEND is now the spokesperson to his excellency on matters of randiness and scandals? Some of these politicians don’t rate Nigerians. Is this not an indictment that politicians sponsor and use these non state actors to fight their personal battles ?

Whitecoal711:
Let the ecosystem be, damaged enough
Environment first,or the flood doesn't affect them
Instead of road why not large farming
Food for the stomach,for the hungry before road

This is the kind of myopic, self-destructive politics you guys play. You complain there is no infrastructure, a Govt is making provision for that, but because you “bigoted self-serving angry mob” have declared Soludo persona non grata for stating the true situation of things about “moneys saved” (and not pandering to your emotional leanings for a candidate), anything he does going forward is now useless. The propaganda of hate is now unleashed full swing on Soludo. The work of Govt is to build infrastructure and provide an enabling environment for business to thrive. If you don’t like it, go and secure loans and build farms. The several thousand indigenes( some of who are into agri-business) will see good road to transport their produce. I am sure they are happy. Tomorrow now, when it’s time for him to contest for presidency, you will change Mouth and say he is the best thing since sliced bread,—-gaslighting everyone just because “he is our man”. Leave politics for once and commend laudable initiatives.

Brendaniel:


The truth is the FG should have intervened in some of these issues and not wait for the state government since the FG will still be in charge of the ports at the end of the day through customs and NPA, the citizens will still be the ones to benefit regardless of the state, my main point is for the government to make life easier for all Nigerians...

Excuses, excuses and excuse is all you are giving. Some of you just regurgitate propaganda like robots without any form of critical thinking, and wish it to be true. So let’s even go to with your thinking and assume the stalling of the Akwa Ibom and Delta ports (that have since been concessioned with no single progress) is the fault or the FG, how is the completion of the one in Lagos a problem? Isn’t it to serve Nigerians from all tribes still? Or would you rather the stakeholders abandon it like those of Delta, Akwa Ibom? Just so to appease your sense or envy? You guys should stop this crab in the barrel mentality just because of hatred driven by political sentiments. Elections will come and go, but these infrastructure will power more businesses. It’s not every thread you should be commenting on and spewing pain and hate. It’s okay to overlook some at the risk of sounding really imbecilic.

obyno82:


You really don't have sense. You know what i mean. there is no feasibility at all for a railway in Anambra. You guys should stop being stupid abeg

Yet you celebrated the overpriced, bogus, and lousy airport that was built with not strategic thinking to the critical mass of people in the state. How do you guys find a way to complain about a mega city having a tram line like this for any reason? Everything is not competition. The 1M+ people to be transported daily is enough reason this is a strong proposition, giving the amount of time people spend in traffic. Find other threads to complain, this is not the thread for Gods sake!

pocom35:


bullet trains for metro and intra city transport?

The sheer amount of ignorance bedevilling Nigerian youths is out of this world. Rather than ask questions, they curse, hyperventilate, spew bigotry foaming in the moth while chiming in on issues they know nothing about. Yet they swear they know what they are doing when it’s obvious they are victims of “group think” due to crass ignorance. Now imagine the problem society finds itself with these dudes having to vote as well. Totally ignorant, warped world view. We are talking about intracity transport, he is talking of bullet trains. The country can only be great if more state governors remotely even perform at this level, not leaving everything to the Fed Govt. Failure of other states in pulling their weight is the prime reason for the massive rural-to-urban migration we are seeing stretching the infrastructure of states like Lagos, Kano, Rivers, etc. The leadership keeps trying to solve the problem, yet daft folks want to criticise without thinking, sounding stupid in the process. Always having a reason to complain.

God1000:
Lagos state government should please offer them Jobs to avoid the surge in crime and criminality

Jobs from where? A state already plagued by over population and uncontrolled migration due to the failure of other governments. With loads of undocumented people from other countries like Niger republic, being ferried in droves, dumped into Lagos weekly only to become bike riders in few days albeit unlicensed, it’s is practically impossible for any govt to cater to this. Economic planning requires a great deal of controlled immigration. We as citizens need to understand how systems work before castigating every and any policy of Govt. For instance, the state has constantly solved for the overwhelming transportation mess with several initiatives in the last 15 years, yet people politicise things when elections are near for ulterior motives. We need do start waking up to the reality that a very small state by land mass, with a population of close to 30M will have to take drastic measures at times to address it every dynamic problems.

Subsidywise20:


In fairness, any Nigerian politician would say the same thing...because most nigerians oppose subsidy removal.

Even me, that if I was Obi would have said...Yes, I will remove subsidy....anytime I post comments supporting subsidy removal on this site...I get a hail of abuse.

So basically, it’s justified that he should be dishonest just because he is scared of the backlash from Nigerians. Isn’t his candidature built on the supposed values of truth, integrity and honesty ? How then are we suddenly using the supposed standards of other aspirants to judge this gaffe. As opposed to lying or deception, why not state what he plans to do, and give detailed explanation of why that choice is in the country’s best interest. Integrity is key.

BluntCrazeMan:
Issue-based Campaigning would start soon.
..
Meanwhile,, I blame our Lazy Nigerian Mainstream Media for not asking these Candidates the Most Important Questions whenever they have the opportunities of having audience with them.

I agree. Another issue is that, the youths who are blaming the older ones lack any sense of depth. Celebrity culture and social media trends is all we care about. We can use social media to engage these politicians better on these topical issues. No, they’ll rather turn the whole drive to a bandwagon of noise where healthy debate is not encouraged. For instance, nothing stops the youths from organising a Twitter space— to invite aspirants (some will be willing to come), and ask them direct questions like: Will you restructure? Will you deliver state policing , how? and what timelines? But No, it’s all vitriol, stanship, etc.

BluntCrazeMan:
Kwankwaso has shown himself
as a bigot.
So,, no need og having a bigot in the movement.

He has always been. He never hid it. It’s just you guys started painting him as a Saint just because he was having meetings with Obi. Challenge aspirants on their views/ plans on cogient national issue like state policing, restructuring, etc to know if you are wasting your vote or not. The hero-syndrome, emotionally driven bandwagon campaign type strategy will lead us back to the same spot— Buhari. No politician is a saint!

kponkedenge:
Ladies and gentlemen, there you have it. Kwankwaso just wanted to ride on Obi's popularity, use him after 8 years and then they'll dump him for another northerner.

If the northerners want to claim smartness, then southerners should stop voting for them too, because they certainly can't win the presidency without the south.

The south can form new alliance with North Central..... Places like Benue, Plateau, Nassarawa, Taraba, Abuja and maybe Adamawa are easier to penetrate than NW or NE.

The north has been ruling Nigeria for more than half of the years in our independence, have we gotten any better?

Buhari is from the North West, a former retired General, a man who claimed to lead the insurgency from the front line.... is insecurity not worse under him?

Instead of you to be convincing the average northerner how their northern political elites including yourself have failed them and encouraging them to try other tribes, you're here spewing jargons.

Even if you enter, what exactly will you do differently from Buhari?

Or was it not this same Kwankwaso that travelled to Ibadan to free some Fulani bandits arrested for terrorizing the State?

https://www.nairaland.com/2693378/fulani-herdsmen-afenifere-replies-kwankwaso

It’s great to see you youths are already seeing the game being played out. You people were already singing Kwankwaso’s praises just because there was news he was meeting with Obi for a merger. The youths already “Saintified” him, chanting he loves education, he is detribalised, he is not like other politicians, Obi-Kwankwaso will deliver Nigeria from the hands of evil men bla bla. This same Kwankwaso? I doubt anyone in the North is more ethnoreligious than Kwankwaso besides Buhari. Get it straight today, no saints in Nigeria politics, not even Obi who until last month was /is Atikus boy, a staunch PDP by blood. A major part of the decay in the last 20 years. So I will never buy the saint bias. Hopefully the youths will wake up and discuss candidates competence based on merits, while asking them tough questions on Governance. So far, all we have is a bandwagon of hero worshippers without any substance. Exactly the kind of drive that brought Buhari to Power. The youths should please be wise.

Faitholu:


Of all the comments I have been reading here, I feel the sense in yours more. Winning primaries now is not as much as the real thing. Abiola, Buhari, Jonathan once won primaries but lost the real thing.
If my intelligence is not failing me, Atiku should be very excited and assured now. He and Tinubu are two devils, but one devil better pass the other

If after everything you are seeing on TV today, some of you still think Buhari has it in him to make anyone win elections, the delusion is strong or maybe just a coping mechanism. Part structures and alliances win elections. No messiah anywhere.

Birds of a feather

Wike isn't smart. Quote me anywhere. Arrogance won't take you anywhere, and as they say, "pride goes before a fall". Dino is just a political puppet playing to the dictate of his master. while reno is like a dog going back to its vomit.

The southerners must be ready to unite if they ever hope to clinch the position of the President.




Kindly check my signature below for your academic research writing assistance, Assignments, Projects, and content writing with Zero plagiarism.

Please you guys should cut Wike some slack abeg. He polled 237 votes even with people like Udon and co splitting southern votes. What you see on display right here is an act of blinded loyalty that the Northerners display to keep power in their region by all means. Wike could be a docile or gently as a dove, Tambuwal would still do the same thing under different circumstances. Isn’t Peter Obi gentle? Why didn’t Atiku and the Northerners zone the ticket to SE because of people like him. Nortehrners supper their own demons irrespective of their incompetence, character flaws and party lines, but y’all southerners like to form educated and over analyse things throwing your own leaders under the bus at the slightest. A former governor in Jigawa just gave ticket to himself and two kids, no Nortehrners has said a word since last week. Imagine If this was Lagos or Rivers state. The game is simple, it’s about keeping Power to the North after Buhari’s disastrous, bigoted and lopsided misrule, and all Northerners will work together to achieve this, irrespective of Party lines. If it comes down to it, Buhari will covertly support Atiku against his own party. Y’all will learn soon don’t worry.

Bobloco:
Such a watery rebuttal

I was expecting something concise and clear with payment receipts

Don’t mind the joker! Always in denial, writing rebuttals. It’s always “It’s not me, but my friends do the spending for me”. You are not a thief (moneybag), but all your friends are. So if you become President, how will these crooked friends of yours let you deliver good governance to Nigerians? Show me your friends and I’ll tell you who you are? Empty incompetent pseudo intellectual— 2 terms no meaningful progress in one of the smallest states in Nigeria, yet you want to be President.

Beremx:
I attended a unity school in the north and we have a WhatsApp group chat which consists of my set. The platform turned to a mosque and the Christians retaliated and turned the platform also to a church. Both posting religious messages. Me I just kukuma exit the group because I no want wahala.
The girl knowing the environment she was shouldn’t have posted the voice notes IMHO

How do you guys ever find it in your analysis to attempt to blame the victim? A group of barbaric demons emboldened by religion and Buhari’s bigoted govt murdered a fellow Nigerian in cold blood, yet you are holding brief for them. A country can never progress with this sort of blatant disregard for human rights and lives which is now synonymous with Buhari’s Nigerian govt and the several deliberate attempts at ethno religious supremacy and bigotry. Keep blaming victims,it will reach your doorstep soon.

Prosperous111:


If you follow the guy up you will Know he wasn't doing all of this for family sake. He was rising against his father because he know how currupt his father was. Imagine awarding a contract for your son and asking for a cash donations back as per say you give him contract. That's the highest level of curruption. Instead of blaming this boy I commend his efforts in fighting his currupt dad

Yes. Let’s commend the son of a public office holder who got a contract breaching public procurement laws. He is an astute man fighting his father on behalf of Nigerians to stop corruption, not because he is getting the short end of the stick in a dubious deal we wouldn’t have know of if all had gone well. Smh. The way some of your reason mehn!

WIZGUY69:
Can't remember the last time I posted any comment in politics section. Nigerian political news makes me sick, sad and angry. Wtf is 'Global Firm Ltd? Sounds like what a fraudster will register in minutes without doing thorough investigation. casted country. I still love this country though due to the high corruption.

“ Global Firm Nig Ltd “ caught my attention as well. It’s the sheer audacity at lack of creativity to even hide their tracks or come up with ingenious schemes. It’s sad enough that this constitutes abuse of office & conflict of interest, what is even sadder is that the dumbest of our population are the ones controlling the destinies of smart and hard working Nigerians. Now imagine the entitlement mentality of this younger Ganduje boy, suing your father’s Govt for a crime you are complicit in.

Mikehot:
When they want to clean their mess they find southern.

Why are Southerners doing PR and sambisa recruit jobs for amry while Dem buratai and his northern oligarchs eat on

Apt! It’s one thing I have noticed in the course of this administration. They have an agenda going on, not to even mention the crass incompetence and mindless corruption. But every time these cabal guys goof, they hide and find a docile and willing Southerner in the ranks to do the dirty job of facing the people to peddle bold faced lies.

That is how they operate. All for the followership.
That is how they cash out on a regular.
Don't be fooled.

You know the story bro!

Akiliogidi:


How? He was already a rich kid before venturing into politics

So why did he venture into politics then? Oh it was just a mere coincidence he started building massive mansions and acquiring latest rolls Royce after joining politics? A state that receives the largest monthly allocation, yet no single infrastructural development and the classless rogues called politicians are springing up wasteful mansions in flooded areas and can’t even build drainages. Yet you are their mouth piece as you seem to know for sure he came to spend his so called personal wealth for Deltans as a rich Santa clause that he is. Continue defending and licking the balls of rogues who are stealing the destiny of your unborn kids. Una eye go clear.

Throwback:


Did they get compensated or they are still challenging the forceful seizure?

Is the late Chief Adebayo Adeleke related to Davido Adelekes?

Yes I think he is David’s grandfather (not sure tho) from what I have read. I also understand they still have cases in court Vs. the govt. So all that one Mr Wire Wire Launderer is yarning is dust! Talkn’ about “he saw poster on Adisa’s wall” Lousy empty barrel. Let him be fooling gullible Nigerians who worship and call every dick and Harry billionaire. They will soon fall for his wash, and start begging him for give away. Next thing they will kill themselves to vote the empty head Governor soon.

IS NIGERIA A STATE IN AMERICA?


ANSWER THE QUESTION?


IF U GO TO AMERICA, WILL DEY NOT DEPORT U?


SO Y ARE DEY AFTER LOADING OUR PEOPLE INTO THEIR HOMOSEXUAL PRISON OVER FLOWING WITH BLACK AMERICANS.



LOOKS LIKE AMERICA WANT TO CARRY THEIR RACISM TO NIGERIANS HERE IN AFRICA.


WE WONT ALLOW OR ACCEPT THAT.

Oga calm down and stop ranting. Nigeria is not a state in American yes! But why are your politicians and their cronies laundering money via their country, with their sovereign currency ( the USD), through their banks. Once you do this, you violate their systems, break their law and you will be held accountable. Simple. If you don’t want them to come after you, tell your cronies and lords to keep their stolen money in Nigeria, or maybe Chinese banks (since they are our new colonisers).

SenecaTheYonger:
All the rape and pedophilia committed in the North, and they give death sentence to a literal musician because he said somethings.

This is the height of the religious manipulation and hypocrisy going on there. Nobody is clamouring for this pedophile to be slaughtered into pieces starting from from the balls. But they are all protesting (including the supposed educated ones on Nairaland and Twitter) for a man to be stoned to death for alleged blasphemy. Watch how the ones who were venting yday and supporting the barbaric act have avoided this thread as it is an Islamic scholar. Why? because it is standard practice in the region. Rich and poor indulge in defiling under age girls in the name of marriage. They have selective amnesia when it comes to evaluating crimes.

kikero:


Well, our secular system of justice has plenty issues (awaiting trial for years , corruption, not enough judges, prolonged cases, poorly handled evidence, etc).

The truth is , if our secular system was working well, there probably won't have been demand for Shari'a really.

Thats why we have to elect politicians who would make our secular system of justice run well , so that there would be no demand for religion in governance, especially Islamist.

Maybe if our secular system was run well in the first instance, there might have been zero demand for Shari'a law, or it would have stayed in the realm.of personal, not creep into criminal.

No! There is no justification for barbarism. No system of justice on earth works efficiently. Not even the US, Britain, or any for that matter. Yet, that is no excuse for groups to butcher their fellow citizens in the name of by laws. It’s 2020, and fundamental human rights (including the laws to live and let live) are the basis and principles for laws guiding associations. So let us know where you stand and be clear! Is it justified for this man to be butchered by other sinners like him or not?

Pymetrics:

Not every part of Nigeria is secular. Sharia law is recognized by Nigeria for some states. That's why I said no the law of your land before you speak.

Let's assume the musician was not arrested or sue to court, is it proper for someone to just open his mouth and say negatives and derogatory words about sacred being of other people's religion? No one has even condemned the guy for what he did. He's completely wrong either with sharia or no any law.

Oga, stop defending what is not and open your head for once. This is the problem of being judgemental and blinded by religion. By you argument, even you yourself should have been shot dead many times. No God anywhere asked you to kill another human being for him! Stop being a simpleton. Nobody deserves to die (by stoning, hanging, or whatever means) just because of religion. Despite the Education, some of you are so wicked and vindictive. How come these laws only apply to poor helpless people in Nigeria. What is the penalty for stealing a goat in Sharia? Yet, Ganduje was caught live on Camera stealing several thousands in USD (that can buy lorries of goat), did sharia do anything to him? Can you swear that you have never committed any sin that violates sharia? Did you submit yourself for punishment? Have El Rufai, Ganduje, Atiku’s kids not violated sharia severally? Are they dead? Stop letting religious bigotry blind your sense of compassion and humanity for crying out loud.

kikero:
The result of mixing religion with politics and government

Of course this comes from our secular system of justice not working well, which drove a lot of people to consider Islamist justice.

It is sad really.

So the blame is on the “Circular system of justice which doesn’t work well“. Hence, justification for a sectional law which promotes: Stoning another human like yourself to death, or marrying under age kids, amongst others in the year 2020?

VULCAN:
It's obvious that you are one of them

El Rufai wasn't the only northerner invited.

That puts paid to you peoples lame excuse.

One day Southern Nigeria will be free of you people's yoke

I was just waiting for someone to say this! The poster you replied was trying so hard to act like he/she isn’t taking sides, but after a few post where he failed to answer the simple question: what is the actual justification for a threat or secession by Northern lawyers ? It jumped out as she kept blaming the NBA for being anti-north for dis-inviting El Rufai. That was it for me tbh.

The fact is, it is the NBA’s prerogative to disqualify anyone (including El Rufai), especially as it is justified giving the ethnic and religious cleansing going on under his watch. Now, seeing this act purely from the point of view of an attack on Northerners is exactly the stuff of bigotry. The said poster, El Rufai and the Northern lawyers are complicit. Even if you have grievances, as members of NBA, there are internal mechanisms to address this, but as the bigots that they are (themselves, and their sponsor the Gov), they had to make it about religion and tribe. If everyone belonging to an organised national body threatens secession at every slight disagreement, how will we have a country? Pence was dis-invited last week in the US, heavens didn’t fall, neither did he make it about ethnicity, religion, nor go about sponsoring secession.
