raumdeuter:The uncle in question views things from a transactional lens, and would rather wet ground for a friend that has done him a solid in the past, or that he knows would do him a solid down the road than do so for a relative who's best argument is entitlement. Yoruba's had a candidate in 1999, and that person wasn't OBJ yet they can't say he gave appointments to favour one region and not another, their primary grouse was his appointments weren't skewed in his tribe's direction like it was with Buhari and like it is now with Tinubu. 1 Like |

Theflint1: The SW grouse with OBJ predates 1999 and there was a reason why he was not the choice of his own people in the election and why Falae was chosen over him |

Since 1999, OBJ's government still remains the closest we've had to a truly Nigerian project and over time it has shown it was the period we enjoyed the most success in the country. Many will argue that his being able to see beyond tribal and religious sentiments played a big role in his success, and I won't fault that thought process. 10 Likes |

raumdeuter:The chicken or the egg eh? |
Re: EPL Chatroom - All Discussions by raumdeuter: 6:18pm On Jan 09 |
Theflint1: No. There was a reason he lost his ward and LGA in 1999. The dislike for OBJ predates 1999 And if it were to be option A4, he wont have qualified |

BlueRayDick: The way Tinubu raised Fashola Oshiomole, SanwoOlu Ajimobi Amosun, Bosun Tijani, There are talented people that need just a platform to showcase themselves There was a time Fashola became a standard for state governance in Nigeria |
Re: EPL Chatroom - All Discussions by Theflint1(m): 6:24pm On Jan 09 |
raumdeuter:You can make the argument that OBJ doesn't know beyond OBJ's interest and how you'd serve his interest, but saying he has as a goal that no Yoruba man surpasses him is another thing altogether. |

Theflint1: Its simply funny that every Yoruba person that aspired to become President never got endorsement and support of Obasanjo the very first Yoruba person to be President and spent 11yrs as president You mean none of them was good enough when compared to the opponents |

Re: EPL Chatroom - All Discussions by Theflint1(m): 6:43pm On Jan 09 |
raumdeuter:You know that for people like OBJ it'd be just as much (probably more) about his interests than it'd be about the quality of the candidate per se, it's just unfortunate that in his history pre-1999, the Yoruba candidates weren't serving his interests. Can't make any argument post-1999, cause the only strong Yoruba candidate has been BAT and his being a meritorious candidate was the weakest argument to present. 2 Likes |

Re: EPL Chatroom - All Discussions by Theflint1(m): 6:45pm On Jan 09 |
Realmrsean:You go where you find love and warmth. OBJ lives in his home in Ota, Yoruba territory, he certainly can't restrict himself to the Yoruba states alone in order to prove his love for his Yoruba heritage. |

raumdeuter: I think it's the opposite. I think Davido has been adjacent to the street from relatively young, which is why his music is so popular. He could have gone down the route of other musicians from wealthy backgrounds like them Naeto C, Ikechukwu, or some of those alte niggas like Showdemcamp, BOJ etc. Some of the stories I've heard are of a guy that was a bit of a problem child for his dad before music took off. I don't know when he blended but he carries 7 on his head and associates with some really grimy niggas. The important thing is that the boy is extremely wealthy in a country where money is power, is from the right kind of family in a society where connections are a shield from consequence, and has access to dangerous boys ready to shoot for him in a land where the cost of a life is as cheap as a bag of eegbow. I genuinely think the boy has the capability to touch his enemies if he wants to, and I believe he could very easily get away with it. 4 Likes 2 Shares |

raumdeuter: Obasanjo appointed equally brilliant people in his government , he just wasn’t fixated on their tribes while he was doing that . He wasn’t thinking of being anybody’s godfather while he was appointing them. At least the prosperity experienced under his government is much more better than the so called talented people we have now that the country’s economy, security and stability is in comatose state. 1 Like |

nihilistjnr: I dont think someone like Davido with that kind of upbringing ever got involved in a real fistcuff fight growing up or seen where classmates will bring knife or portable axes to school. Someone like Davido from British International School to Babcock he really never had real action, Maybe he saw it on TV and wished he was a part of it You cant compare his growing up to someone like Olamide for Bariga wey be say them go send you to go grind pepper and some boys don already waylay you for street, chop small beating you no fit even report for house. On a regular Davido if you fight him as a teenager maybe na IG or DPO his dad will raise to come arrest your family His 7 affiliation was probably bought or influenced shey na for Babcock he enter bush? You think say dem blend Davido like dem dey blend other people for bush? Some blending wey you go take leave of absence from school for 2months if you have money and like wahala its easy to get eru-iku wey go die for your matter you can touch anyone, Na you go just decide to calm down and enjy your celeb status not to dey find wahala everywhere Davido wey go siddon for IG dey reply and insult every nonentity |

nihilistjnr: As an side I suspect that unfortunate nanny and cook are still locked away somewhere And like you said when push comes to shove Davido has more goons at his disposal than tiwa does. And a country where wealth is insulation from consequences |

BlueRayDick: OBJ wey be say those who countered his 3rd term agenda he still get them for mind till date? OBJ wey be say any small disagreement na EFCC and impeachment be the next thing OBJ wey go on National TV to insult Eedris a hip hop artiste for singing Nigeria Jagajaga and later sent police after him that made Eedris flee OBJ wey be say na political assassination's every week even his own Attorney General while the main suspect was winning election from prison OBJ wasn't thinkng of being anyones godfather only that he handed them to godfathers like Adedibu in Oyo and Chris Uba in Anambra 5 Likes |

raumdeuter: You don't need to be from Bariga to be street adjacent, and you don't need to be street if you're from Bariga. Case in point, my family house is in Ilaje-Bariga, and I'm (was) street adjacent at best, and that's because my head generally no correct anyway. When I was in naija, there were some levels I could handle myself or call in back up, at least up until a certain stage, before I clear road for real goons. My brothers carried UTC and Lebe to school in Igbobi, but they weren't street boys either. I believe Davido was outside to an extent. I know many guys like him - rich background, at least one liberal or absent parent, and they end up being 'bad boys'. Not street boys, but bad boys. There's a difference. I agree Davido most likely bought his 7, but he's still a 7, and one of their biggest ambassadors. Whether through donation, or likely through extortion, that organisation is heavily incentivised to go hard for him. |

GloriousGbola: If Tiwa had goons, her ex wouldn't be disturbing social media with a coded cry for help, and she wouldn't have to be petitioning police. The best she can do is make noise so that Davido fears public backlash if he tries anything rash. Otherwise, both parties would have kept it in the streets |
Re: EPL Chatroom - All Discussions by DissTroy(m): 7:23pm On Jan 09 |
Theflint1: Obasanjo somewhat deserves the scorn he gets from Ogun and Lagos people though. Ota roads were bad while he had a farm and was President. I can understand the intra-state roads, but the Lagos -Abeokuta highway was bad and kept getting worse. Only the Gateway Hotels/Tollgate part was befitting of a federal road. 1 Like 1 Share |

GloriousGbola: I think Raumdeuter is right. All this one Davido is doing na because dem never shoot film for him presence before na. Na lekki e take join cult na. If to say na normal streetz/school wey be say when small wahala happen everybody go travel and he don see plenty people fall before he no go dey move mad the way he’s doing. Even 2face idibia that year sef dem knack am. If to say some of these privileged youngings grew in the late 90’s early 2000’s when they used to show Campus circuit on AIT where they will report how cultist attacks cripple academic activities in UNIBEN, LASU, Ekpoma , etc they will get sense and avoid cultism . |
Re: EPL Chatroom - All Discussions by BlueRayDick: 7:28pm On Jan 09 |
raumdeuter: But u agree he wasn’t thinking tribal when he made his political appointments right ? That’s what matters here . I never argued that OBJ wasn’t vindictive or didn’t supervise a government where there was political assassination. |
