See everyone lamenting about how bad the action of the governor is. But set elections today, they will vote according to their tribes and religion whether the person is good or bad

Of course it must be a northerner

Kebbi State, 2011

Thats nice, I served in Kebbi too

The irregularities in the elections like forged results in states like Rivers, Edo, Imo, Ekiti etc are what the Obi's legal team should focus on. APC's figures were hiked especially in areas they weren't supposed to do well, not FCT 25%.
So, if I say pick 4 colours from:
Blue, Red, Yellow, Green, Grey, Purple, Indigo and Pink.
You will say the "and" means Pink must automatically be selected?

The constitution makes it clear that all votes in all parts of the country are equal and no vote in any part of the country has a special status.

The "and" you're trying to generate wind about is simply the word joining the FCT with states when we want to call them together; 36 states and the FCT.

Everyday we hear in the news stuff like "Fertilisers will be distributed to farmers in the 36 states and the FCT"... It simply means the farmer in FCT will receive the same fertiliser his counterpart in Abia will receive.
Lets stop this tomfoolery abeg.
This FCT business is making them look stupid.

Nigerians are okay with it. Provided they belong to the tribe and religion of the majority.

I love Tiwa Savage, she is so beautiful

I don't care, it has nothing to do with me

This is not about being an Obidient or not.
For the 25% in FCT, the supreme court will throw that out cos the constitution states that "all votes in all parts of the in country are equal".
However, If the judiciary is brave, it can nullify the elections on account of substantial non-compliance to the electoral act by INEC especially in the transmission of election results real-time and inconsistencies in numerous result sheets, voter suppression and intimidation as seen in Rivers, etc.
For the drugs, dual citizenship and Shettima's double nomination, the court will strike them out on technical grounds.
The court will want to focus on the actual elections itself and try as much as possible to base its judgement on that.

This is overrated. Sorry to burst your bubbles guys. It is not one magic thing that makes a woman lose her senses. At best, it is "just there".
Men delude themselves thinking they are providing the ultimate ecstasy to the woman, No bro. She is just faking those moans cos she doesn't want to bruise your fragile egos.
This is a truth nobody wants to openly admit to. Cos no one wants to challenge the generally believed stereotype.

Things can never change in Nigeria. No such day is coming.

coputa:
Even at that, they should be exposed for all to see and for record purposes.ONE DAY,i mean ONE DAY things will change.and they will all give account of their stewardship.

I pity these people who risk their lives and careers thinking they are exposing a politician. Its an exercise in futility: Nigerians don't give a hoot about all these. What determines a Nigerian's vote is TRIBE, RELIGION & PARTY LOYALTY. If you like show a live video of the person slaughtering a human being, his supporters will still vote for him.
Wasn't Ganduje caught on camera stuffing dollars into his pocket? What came out of it?
Wasn't Atiku caught on audio tape confessing to a corrupt act? What came out of it?
Wasn't Fayose recorded plotting with military to rig Ekiti election then? Did anything happen?.
Please leave Nigerians.

Opposite attracts.

Scam!! Please disregard and delete that message

A familiar picture of our political elites.
But hey, the masses don't care about that. All they want is their tribes and religion. So its a win win, everyone is happy

Sorry, I won't "close my eyes to Tinubu's health". It is too important a factor for me to close my eyes to. I want someone who has it ALL, and I know it is possible to get that someone. But folks like you are so tied to the apron strings of your tribes, religion and blind party loyalty that you won't let that happen. It is a shame you're openly canvassing on a public forum why we should accept less than desirable, ttying to sound intelligent in explaining away mediocrity in our leadership selection. It is a shame truly

Boyooosa:
REALITY is when u agree that mastering politics is the only leverage to reach your peak.

Attaining the position of a top banker, u need to understand banking industry.

To become a General, u need to master the act of 'soldiering'.

To stay consistent as a billionaire, u need to master the act of building business empire, that is the exact reference I made to 'political proficiency', a high degree of skills in politics

My point is, without being conversant with political game, u won't attain ur peak-career in politics.

Yeah, I agree with you that we need more than that in Nigeria as it is but there is always a basic prerequisite for every field of endeavour.

Close eyes to tinubu's health, then rate him again, against other contenders.

Remove me from the scenario in your judgement, I'm not a tinubu advocate, just examine him on your own

What exactly does "political proficiency" mean? This is not a game. It is not a sport nor an entertainment show. We are talking about the lives and destinies of over 200m people. The person the people should trust with the top job should meet ALL the criteria. That is my advocacy via this forum. You want to gloss over a factor as important as physical fitness for the job all because you feel duty bound to "defend" your candidate. It is this kind of blind loyalty and side-taking that has kept this country like this. This "us vs them" needless fighting over tribes and religion benefits no one but the politicians. But you obviously don't care about all that.

Boyooosa:
Well, if u will agree with me, in your company, u set prerequisites for applicant and it's based on what you do and what the applicant know, his experience and his expertise in the field as may be relevant to the job he seeks in your organization.

Politics is the only platform you can become an elected leader (president precisely) in a democratic setting and mastering it is compulsory and not optional.

So, one of the topmost qualities you need to emerge as a leader is your political proficiency, if you consider this factor, tinubu is the first candidate to consider and that was exactly what gave him that victory.

Talking about other qualities that could make him sustain the seat and perform effectively, he has it. The only challenge I'm aware of is his health not the brain.

I wish he could get over it, I am believing that he will perform.

Remember, gej was perfectly healthy and last last, he did not give us what we expected so, definitely, health can never be the only requirement to perform brilliantly

OP speak for yourself o. Did Nigerians tell you functional economy, standard of living, prosperity, jobs, good roads, security, health care, etc are their problems?? Nigerians don't give a rat ass about all those.
What is sacred and of utmost importance to Nigerians is tribe and religion.
So please, OP stop assuming you know it all by trying to speak for everyone.

Mynd4, lalasticlala, Dominique, Justwise rule 2. Tribal incitement, he specifically mentioned IBOS deliberately misspelt as "yiibos"

Jagaban2012:
Tinubu is going to the opposition camp.....every one person out of 10 rivers state indigene hates Tinubu with passion.....

So many fake Journalists will go to that event just because of Tinubu ....and be looking for one mistake or the Other...

Tinubu should be vigilant with all these Yiibo people in River State... They are his unrepentant enemy...

Of course competence is very important. It is the first thing to look out for. Other factors are also equally important because they will determine if the candidate will succeed on the job. The ideal candidate must have all the qualities. It is a top job, having one or two of the qualities is not enough, the candidate must have ALL. I recruit for my organisation, small as it is, we ensure the eventually successful candidate meets all the criteria. So I don't know why a country's most important job will now be based on sentiments.

Boyooosa:
Tiny u is president elect not president

Mw,it's cool that u align with the fact that competence is very important as a quality

Read what I wrote correctly. The last 4 presidents are Yar'adua, Jonathan, Buhari and now Tinubu. The sick ones are Yar'adua, Buhari and Tinubu. That is what 3 out 4 means.

Boyooosa:
....and competent (I help u to add that to your list)

In fact, to me, it's the most important


Sorry, I forgot to inform you to remove Jonathan from your sick list

I'm not a Peter Obi campaigner. I'm not igbo. What is wrong with Nigerians? Must everything be about your tribal fights and hates? Yar'adua a sick man was in power and his death threw the country into a power crisis we have still not recovered from. Another sick man Buhari is just finishing 8years of hardship and suffering which he himself admitted he couldn't perform much due to ill health. Now another clearly sick man Tinubu is about to enter, and all you care about is how you hate ibos. Are Nigerians cursed?

lailo:
The only person who campaigned along religion and tribal lines is Peter Obi of Igbo. A special call to Oyedepo is a testimony and deliberate and isolated several campaign to churches and Igbo dominated markets across the country come to mind. No other candidate including Tinubu, Atiku, Sowore, Kwankwaso ever explored such faultlines.

My idea of a preferred successor should have been someone healthy, willing to serve seflessly, scandal free.
In a country of 200m people, is it a coincidence that 3 of the last 4 presidents are sick dying men?

Boyooosa:
Who would you have preferred as a successor?

Punch should not worry themselves. Nigerians don't care about any of these things. All Nigerians need is their religion and tribe. They don't really mind poverty, insecurity, hunger, unemployment, etc.
Anything the new administration will do is perfectly fine, anyway they act is excellent.
Lets stop forming woke by pretending we care about good governance, whereas what we really want deep down is for someone of our tribe or religion to be in power and another person from another tribe or religion we hate not to.

Stockholm syndrome is a bad thing o.
See slaves rushing to comment "Osinbajo is weak", "Tinubu is a master strategist", "This is politics" etc etc. The same people that have been robbed blind are staunchly defending their oppressors.
So sad

The buildings have C of Os and all the necessary approvals issued by the same state government. Nigerians aren't stupid, before a Nigerian will part with N50m to buy a property, you think he won't make sure everything is intact to the needle?
During the elections, someone boasted they were coming to "teach these ibos a lesson".

Ohhhh wow! Thanks for the update
