Whom Should We Trust In Nigeria Politics? by budav4fem: 3:13pm On Nov 29, 2013
Those championing the birth of APC were the same people who played different roles in Nigerian politics without any positive result.
“The people championing the formation of APC were the same people who were former PDP members who did not have anything to show to Nigerians.
Nigerians are tired of PDP as well as those behind APC, The kindergarten government being in total disarray.
God is great in the heavens and He answers prayers even when we do not merit. His mercies indeed endure. Let them continue to play god and God Almighty will show them that, He remains in the throne and He gives power to whomever He chooses.
Either APC or PDP there are full of selfish leaders, the interest of Nigeria is not paramount to them. They pursue shadow pretending to Nigerians. Do we have any progressive party out of this political party, capital NO.
GEJ said he had no shoes and today his manner of doing things has made many Nigerians not only to become shoeless but also go without food, water and shelter. See east west road, see the UN Report on Ogoniland, see the oil thefts degrading our environment, see corruption everywhere and with impunity, see roads becoming death traps, see Sure P fund missing, excess crude fund depleting, youths roaming the streets in search of non existing jobs and even being deceived to part with very hard to come by money in the name of recruitment exercise, baby factory everywhere, robbers now getting to hospitals to rob babies, blood shedding everywhere. What a country, what a people.
Extract from Mr. Yinka Odumakin, General Mohammadu Buhari’s Spokesman and Chieftain of the Save Nigeria Group, Mr. Yinka Odumakin has accused the Governors of the Action Congress of Nigeria, ACN, of awarding one Kilometer of Road construction for N1 Billion.
Boasting about his knowledge of Yoruba political leaders, Odumakin said, “I can tell you authoritatively that the most dangerous and terrible tendency in Yoruba politics is the house of deceit that Tinubu represents.”
Odumakin, a spokesman for General Mohammadu Buhari, on his facebook wall recalled how he dragged former Governor Alao Akala to the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, for awarding One Kilometer of road forN50 Million and said most Yoruba leaders are “greedy.”
Odumakin, a spokesman for General Mohammadu Buhari said:
“Between 1999 and now, I’ve related at close quarters with most actors in the Yoruba political space at close quarters and I know the weaknesses and
strengths of all.
“I can tell you authoritatively that the most dangerous and terrible
tendency in Yoruba politics is the house of deceit that TINUBU
REPRESENTS.
“Only those who have sold their souls will ignore this fact … There has never been any such greedy bunch in our nation- not under “Demo” or even
PDP.”
“I took Akala before EFCC in 2010 for awarding roads at N50m per km in all the LGs in Oyo state. Today your Asiwaju is collecting N1b per km across South West.
“When Tinubu turned “60″ ACN states contributed N1b for a bash, nobody tried that in Yorubaland before.
“Chief Adebanjo was chairman of AD in 1999 and not one relation of his got a ticket unlike your Tinubu whose wife is a senator,son in law a Rep, Sister in law a House member in Lagos and daughter now Iyaloja via imposition .
“Your grouse with the old men may be for reasons you have not stated but you know they are far more honorable than a million Bola Tinubu.
Just like a very good friend, IG Wala noted, the Nigerian youths seemed to be flooded with euphoria on the impression that APC is here to check the only political party (PDP) that made Nigerians happy and later took away the happiness and replace it with anger, corruption and lawlessness. IG Wala questioned, who do we blame if not the people, especially the youths that easily jump into conclusions and embrace anything coming to us in form of option to the old stuff we have and I add that, is making us unhappy even when the new option portray the tendencies of giving us worst misery?
In my opinion, the opposition, especially the ACN and ANPP are as corrupt as the PDP. So, if some Nigerian leaders and elite can open their stinking mouth to ask Nigerians to settle for some ACN, ANPP thieves under the new APC over other PDP thieves, then what is the hope of the many illiterates?
Tijani Gadani while expressing is worries about the APC said, ’’Let me agree, for the sake of argument, that General Muhammed Buhari is honest, corrupt free and even a saint. Then, why will he associate himself with Ahmed Sani Yerima, the man who introduce Political Sharia in Zamfara State as the Governor, but wouldn’t want to be tried under the same sharia for corruption?
Why will Buhari associate himself with Bola Tinubu whom we all know doesn’t share the same idea with him in term of integrity? Someone whom is said to be once tagged as the most corrupt governor in Africa?
The truth must be told, Nigeria cannot get it right under this recycling of old and failed leaders who brought the country to this rotten state, be it with the PDP or the opposition, the earlier we realize this, the better for Nigeria.
While contributing to the discussion, Yemi Odunaike, a strong admirer of General Muhammad Buhari who express disappointment with Buhari and the APC wrote,’’ Buhari before collaboration with ACN and others, I support with all passion.
In his words, ’the very simple question still lingering is, will a Buhari led Federal Government also investigate and prosecute all ACN, ANPP looters who the majority are now the generals allies?’’ or I ask that, can he prevent them from further stealing and drying the federal treasury as they did to the respective states they are controlling?
There must be a change for the better in the interests of our nation and its people.
GOD BLESSES NIGERIA.

one question for you sir, do you even trust yourself

to address the main issue i would love to ask you when akala or any other of the "PDP" governors that awarded road project were they executed and where is the funds allocated what you people don't get is that unlike the PDP that award projects yet we don't see them nor is the money accounted for but those ACN(APC) governors that award road project even though it might be over rated or inflated in price but yet we still have something ,our roads are getting better street lights are coming on and all unlike your "PDP" states that is deteriorating about tinubu why dont all these people yelling about his thiefry go to court and charge him because there is the saying until proved otherwise remains innocent even though he might have stolen those funds beneath our eyes yet prove him guilty rather than rave all over the media , going to the case of the iyaloja i thought this is an hereditary position and has nothing to do with republicanism but rather appointment by royal heads, Bola might have influenced it but yet it bothers down to the royal heads of lagos. just to be clear am a free thinker and rather than indulge in party politics i indulge POP(Progressive oriented politics) if there is any other individual out there that can move this state, nation , country out there he or she should climb the podium irrespective of the party and i will say the same of that individual
