A party man seeking redemption, how poetic. When it was favouring you, there's no harm done but when you lost in the power tussle then you want to pitch your tent in the labourers camp. Save us the talk of wanting a change, the only people here who have shown high level of integrity in their partial and impartial support for the labourers camp are Disstroy and Blueyraydick even though I disagree with them I salute their principle they're people of conviction with skin in the game.

Nostradamus1:
it is defected.


This deflected dey sound somehow for ear.

Head-to-Head despite the obvious failure of "The White Lion" he's better than Peter Obi when it comes governance.
He has legacy projects to show despite the lean resources and the dangerous situation he met the state on assumption of office.
3 Reference Hospitals across the 3Senatorial districts, several kilometres of roads reconstructed across the state, he tamed ASUU in Kogi State University, initiated Confluence University of Science And Technology, Osara, Omi Rice Mill, presently there's a PPP arrangement to build a Cement plant by Dahiru Mangal company (the name escaped my memory).
He was able to keep bandits and kidnappers at bay by investing in security architecture and recruiting locals as vigilantes alongside hunters to comb the bushes and forest across the entire stretch of the state; this is a state bordering about 10 or so states including the FCT and the 13th largest in terms of landmass, this is a state that almost as big as the entire SE region. He won the best Governor on security, you can verify this claim.
However, his legacy will forever be tainted by the issue of nonpayment/underpayment of salaries which he's partly responsible for. Since 1999 Kogi civil servants have had to deal with poor working conditions with the only exception being the administration of Gov Ibrahim Idris between 2003-2011, during the time of late Prince Audu workers in the state are paid using what they refer to as satanic chart and pensioners were called dead woods.

I’m really not OBIdient per se ….. I’m just a guy who believes Tinubu and his friend Atiku have no business running this country . At least not now , not at this precipice Nigeria has found itself at the hands of Buhari .

One thing I’m sure of is if we vote either of those aforementioned 2 as president , we will see shege, barawo and banza pro max !

ShaqFu:
whether it is Asiwaju, Atiku or Obi, whoever enters Aso Rock w Nigerians will still see Hell.

These guys won't be able to do anything to stop Nigerians from being Nigerians. I'm telling you this today,, Mark My Words

Donjazet2:

Ok sir, thanks for the doom-mongering, now tell us what Nigerians should do to have a better country..

We are not buying into the narrative that Nigeria will never get better. Can you put forth suggestions on what we as individuals here can do to make Nigeria get better. Thanks.

Donjazet2:
I will personally be voting LP throughout the ballot, because I know the party will need to have a strong representative caucus to bargain with others and get things done.

DissTroy:
When Shekau-lite who represents everything uncivilised agrees with you, you should be worried. Really worried.

Bimffo:


My mum is from Kogi and my dad already built in Kogi state and I dey reach my hometown well.

White Lion. What did that fraud in Lugard house give these indigene from Kogi state?

A Governor that opened his eyes for Bandits to take over the Lokoja-abuja highway. Someone that spent the money provided to battle covid-19, and till today we don't know where the money is.

Even though I cannot confirm if he is better than PO as a Governor, you people need to stop the hype of that Lugard house tenant. He has not done anything tangible and he has deceived us with media propaganda.

chrisooblog:
hmmm not too sure about the bold chief Kogi State that is the base for kidnappers to keep their victims? You couldn't pay me N1bn to make me come to Kogi right now.

Bimffo:


You are definitely correct and there are examples to support your claim.

Nigerians are systematically corrupt. We need to change the whole system and not the head alone.

And because of the corruption of Nigeria, the President may not be able to move the country forward and he will be sabotaged.

reccy:


You should do well by countering what he said with facts and numbers.

Pitobi is a failure personified the same with yeye bello and the two are slowpoke. That's why we don't want the m.oron from SE near our state.

how do you plan to change a system that has been existence for over 60 years?

Are you going to kill all Nigerians and start afresh?
Corruption has been engraved in our DNA.. just like a sickle cell

There is nothing anyone can do about it..

Bimffo:


The people can change. It is the system that is corrupt.

And we can start by removing the immunity of elected government officials.

Nostradamus1:
Absolutely

I read things like if the president is not corrupt, it will stop others from being corrupt ( a candidate is campaigning on this hill).We just keep forgetting that our value system is in shambles. In a lot of foreign forums, you(sean.kafor) would have been banned and your IP address forwarded to relevant authorities. But in this country, you were even broke shaming somebody.

Away from you, how many people here will have their fathers and brothers as governor's and will not expect expedited service and financial freedom?If your uncle is a governor and he is not stealing, all of you in your family will gather and swear for him. That is Nigeria.

You spoil public tap, you say that you are not the first. You will not pay tax ( some people even defend tax evaders for online).Youth service, you bribe.Goverment contract, you abandon. Government work, you start selling pant and bra at the premises(from schools to LGAs to Ministry).To avoid paying import duties, you follow evil forest .

At this point, I support the statement that "Nigeria is surviving because of corruption"

I said will most likely vote, also not every Obidients understand politics like i do. I don't do follow the crowd anymore, i vote for a candidate i believe will serve well at any level. In 2015 i voted for Buhari and Jimi Agbaje, in 2019 i voted for Fela Durotoye and Sanwo-Olu. I have been voting my party candidate until 2015, i voted for Agbaje cos i didn't like how Tinubu imposed Ambode on the party instead of Obafemi Hamzat. People who will vote for Obi, will most likely tumb print for LP in all the ballot papers....

raumdeuter:


Femi Hamzat is a Moslem. After 8yrs of Fashola and Tinubu

Bimffo:


What did Teslim do?

Ajimobi dealt a big blow to the APC structure in Oyo state and it is still having effect after his death. Maybe if he was still alive, he would have corrected some mistakes.

The structure I am with right now have come out to say they are for Atiku, but the game they are playing is to try all their best not to go against Tinubu because a Tinubu that can walk can have influence in any election in Southwest. It is the truth and I am not shying away from it.

TrebleChamp:
What is so difficult in understanding the phrase( most likely vote for )? I didn't say they will vote LP definitely, i even gave a narrative of Lagos in 2015 and how i intend to vote next year. Show us result of Rivers, Delta, Kano, Katsina, Bayelsa, Zamfara and many other State. I don't see how that phrase is an issue to be honest, it was an assumption and not definite statement. I am not saying people don't split votes in Election, but majority voters expecially the illiterates (no abuse intended) don't split votes and that is fact.

raumdeuter:


2011 Buhari CPC won all Northern states
While CPC barely won governorship and Senate elections in the entire North

2015 and 2019 Buhari swept most of the North again while governorship and Senate was shared by APC and PDP
