Heterodox:When and how do we make you understand that Tinubu is suffering from dementia and short term memory loss due to age? The Tinubu you know before and Tinubu you know now are not the same!! |

casualobserver: Right. I’m voting for Tinubu Whose K-leg is quite big.....mind you. . He has the experience and track record and has demonstrated a capacity to identify the issues, identify talent, put round pegs in round holes, a capacity to raise revenue which we will need, a capacity for innovation and thinking outside the box. He is not a tribalist or a religious bigot. Nigeria needs someone who can hit the ground running, Only Atiku and Tinubu have that quality. My major problem with Atiku is PDP and the type of characters in PDP So after complaining about K-Leg...you mention the guys with the biggest K leg of the lot.... Peter Obi IMHO is simply a con man taking advantage of Ibo sentiment and youth frustration, neither of which is rooted in rational thinking I'm not with the obituarists...but let's be frank, TInubu and Atiku are a part of the reason why the youth are frustrated...keep that in mind. And when a youth is frustrated, it is rational that they won't vote for the cause of their frustrations...which include APC and PDP...the parties of one Tinubu and one Atiku. . His track record is mediocre at best, he has no meaningful or signature achievement as a 2 term governor during an economic boom!! If Nigeria weren’t in such dire circumstances I might have been tempted to vote for Obi/Datti just for change sake, just to send a message to the political class but Nigeria cannot afford amateurs and the inexperienced at this point So, at one point, you rightly admit Nigeria needs change, but then you end up justifying voting for same old, same old. That's why things are as bad as they are ten, twenty, thirty years ago..... . You don’t solve a problem by creating a bigger one….you only have to look at 8 yrs of Buhari, Whose regime included a lot of TInubu appointees, including one who was put in charge of revenue generation...where he failed woefully. Nigeria cannot afford another president who will spend 4 yrs just figuring out how things work and what to do. IMHO Obi is the most dangerous option of the 3 for the future of Nigeria So? Buhari was voted in based on change...and spent 6 months figuring out what to do. Buhari was brought in by the Tinubu YOU support. . A corrupt man who knows what he is doing and can grow the economy is 10x better than a so called clean man who hasn’t got a plan, a clue or the experience or the support in parliament to hit the ground running. So, vote corruption because ...experience? After you guys will come and complain about how they are stealing money again, and how the government is corrupt...and then with your own hands, vote a corrupt person into office? You better not complain when the problems get worse. Nigeria needs someone with a plan who can hit the ground running. I do not advocate corruption and embezzlement but I am a realist. A man who in 8 years increases IGR by 300% and steals 10% is better than a man who steals nothing but cannot raise IGR. I'm not an Obituarist...honestly Obituarists have blasted me well well, and yes, he is not that spectacular But...Obi did do a lot in infrastructure. Very much so. And Lagos, upon all the shouting about Tinubu..the tax to gdp ratio is still below the national average of 8.1%..plus he was not that spectacular either. His power project failed (in fairness, no one knew Enron was going to collapse a year later), and Lagos town is still a dump, outside the middle class bubble. Obi too is not that great...I will give you that.. At this point in time a thief who can build a road or send my child to school is better than a clean man who cannot improve my lot because he hasn’t got the ideas to raise revenue or a concrete plan. Nigeria is maxed out debt wise, if you cannot raise revenue you will have no money to execute your promises Yah, we made the same excuses for GEJ and Buhari...and see where we are now? Nigerians awake.. [/quote] |

Botnik: Your knowledge of history is very poor. Go and research about lagos economy before 1999. Go and research about lagos even before Nigeria got her independence. Lagos has always been the number 1 in Nigeria, even when Calabar was the capital. It has nothing to do with Tinubu. Peter Obi is your incoming president, learn to be obedient. |

GodsOwnMan:Igbos have been established in Lagos long before Tinubu was born. Lagos was Nigeria capital for a very long time. Abuja as it is today was not built by the indigenous people. Every ethnic group is fully represented in Lagos. Everyone contributed to its development and will share from its glory. Was Lagos a slum before 1999? |

twentyfivekobo: I really hate people who say things like Nigerians awake….what makes you think your views are superior to mine? If you are going to tell me to awaken at least have someone with a spectacular tmrwck record to wow me!!!! We have a difference of opinion, I respect your decision to not vote for Tinubu, please respect my decision to vote for Tinubu. Let’s leave it at that. I do t have time to do this with every person who quotes me. I am tired of all this intolerance and nonsense. I’m voting for Tinubu, I’ve stated my reasons which is what this thread is about. I am not interested in converting any Atiku or Obi supporters…vote as you wish and leave me in peace!!! The real problem if Nigeria are those intolerant people who in a democracy think that their views are the right views, must be shared by others and can’t respect that this is a democracy. |

Heterodox:name me one efficient leader tinubu has raised that has any outstanding achievement, or any one that has gone on to make a name in the international scene we have ngozi iweala, akinwumi adesina, from both obi and Jonathan regime, 2 you said Buhari's cabinet member are not efficient, you fail to mention that a large part of Buhari's cabinet members are the so called " efficient leaders" tinubu raised, Sunday dare worked with tinubu when he was a governor now minister of sport can you tell me any remarkable thing Sunday dare has achieved, under his watch Nigeria failed to qualify for world cup, even super falcons couldn't do well, has he built and world class sport facility or program? Even our female basketball team were kicked out of fiba world cup under his watch then you have rauf aregbesola who also served under tinubu when he was governor, he is now the minister of interior, under his watch Nigeria has recorded more jail break than ever in our history can you least any major achievement of rauf aregbesola even as a governor of osun, then another one of the so called tinubu's " efficient leaders" is lai Mohammed Nigeria's current minister of information who also served under tinubu, I can't even write about lai Mohamed we all know his history, then you have tundeFowler, the former or current firs boss, who had a corruption scandal, what about the guy who was made minister of power what remarkable achievement did fashola achieve as a minister, I find it foolish when people keep saying tinubu has raised men, like seriously, all those people who worked with him got to enjoy national appointment not because of their performance or knowledge but due to favouritism, tinubu has never raised anybody note worthy what he has are just loyalist to his personal cause. " tinubu has raised men" my ass. 1 Like |

twentyfivekobo: I shall vote for Tinubu and I am prepared for the consequences good or bad, thank you very much!!! Don’t waste your time or mine try to to persuade me otherwise, if you cared to read or understand what what written, I already told you the others IMHO are worse or will be worse. If there was a better alternative I wouldn’t be voting for him. The only way I won’t vote for Tinubu is if there was a better alternative and there isn’t!!!! End of discussion!!!!!! |
Re: 2023: Who Will You Vote For And Why? by Nobody: 7:24pm On Jul 31, 2022 |
I am voting for Tinubu because he has the best antecedence amongst all the candidates running. He laid a foundation for the developments of Lagos in the last 23 years. He took it upon himself to ensure that Lagos remains the Industrial Hub of Africa. Nigeria don't need a president that will come and lie to us that everything will be good in 4 years we need a president who can set us on the right part to development in the next 23 years, beyond his own tenure as president...We need a president who priorities education by making it free, If he can make it free in Lagos He can make it free in Nigeria. Some people argue that he has a criminal past, Well do you think if Bola was tryelly found guilty and wanting in the drug case he would have done time for it. USA Drug laws are not lenient for a Black Man. But even if he was involved as an accountant in some sort of shady dealings and the US government couldn't find him wanting, that means he beat the US government to a Game Don't you like Like an Intelligent President? I like a President that wouldn't be too subservient to the ideas of the west... Ps: I am not an APC person, I am a Bola Tinubu Person. Bola on your mandate I stand. |

teawhy2788:name anything outstanding that any of this guys achieved even at national level rauf aregbesola under his watch Nigeria has recorded more jail break than ever in our history, fashola as minister of power what did he achieve, Sunday dare minister of sport under his watch Nigeria couldn't qualify for world cup, our female basketball team was kicked out by fiba, our female football team couldn't even get a medal at the female afcon, did he build any world class facility or sport program? No. Tunde Fowler had a hugh corruption scandal, as you can see they all failed, name me one of tinubu's protege who have gone on to achieve anything at the international scene where competence is the main criteria for appointment? None we have okonjo iweala under obj now wto president, akinwumi adesina under gej now afdb president, the only reason this people got national appointment was due to favouritism, because if it was competence they wouldn't have all failed in their task and some would have gone on to carve a niche for themselves at the international scene, this is why we need obi as president, who choses competence for appointment rather than favouritism for associates. 1 Like |

I will loved to give OBI a try , not because he has a good record or all that . Let us be factual with our self , any governor that can lead any south East state with visible improvement should be applause. Because that region is the only region that federal government (but Agency and ministry) never give their support to. Check the human capital growth index of south East,it has the highest human capital growth rate, that is the real growth Nigeria actually needed , is only south East that such growth is high but the federal government support is what is really lacking from that region. If the support previous government and present federal government are putting in Lagos is been channel to a state in south East then that will be a good level to compare. For example, 1.Port in south East are deliberately abadon just to hamper the economy of south east states 2 Airport too thesame things , imagine a state government sponsored international airport and yet it has not been license, that shows the level of set back that region is facing . So we shouldn't compare it with any other region. Most especially Lagos that has all the attention of the federal government.. Any federal government project that doesn't go to Abuja or any other northern state will eventually end up in Lagos. |

Judging by their track records while in power, pls and pls tinubu beats anyone of them hands down. Although his past deeds( his involvement in drug deals ) is nothing to write home about coupled with the fact that he’s too old.. for these reasons, I will not vote him . To me, Obi doesn’t have a clear cut plan on how to rule this nation. He sounding like someone who has hidden agenda with sweet mouth. That’s how they packaged Buhari for us, mba I won’t fall for that trick., Atiku is a certified thief, he’s among the people that spoiled this country and like I heard ( not sure) he’s one of the reasons why we don’t have stable electricity (cos he imports generators ).. I’ll rather waste my vote on sowore or vote nobody . I’ll certainly vote gubernatorial, and my choice is seyi makinde of oyo state , Not because he’s exceptional , but because he embraces continuity .. |
