senatordave1:What influence does Tinubu have? He can't even exert his influence in ondo and Ekiti and you are talking about national politics. You saw how he was disgraced in June 2015 when he tried to influence the NASS election 3 Likes 1 Share |

Agboriotejoye: you are really on point. OBJ's disciples cut across the whole country while Tinubu's disciples are mainly regional. So why comparing somebody that was in full control and Kingmaker of Nigerian national politics for 16 years to somebody that just came into national political landscape in 2015 and let's not also forget Buhari's influence in the north which is even greater than tinubu's influence in the west. 2 Likes |

Agboriotejoye:Mention the politicians obj produced firstly and helped into office.secondly,what has obj achieved since leaving office politically? Has anybody he supported ever won? Can he win his state or ward? Him hosting presidents while in office doesn't concern tinubu.mind you,obj has a massive financial warchest like tinubu and even had more access to state resources yet achieved less than tinubu |

kayfra: is a misnomer because you say so. please kindly educate yourself. below is the 50 most important pan africanists in history https://www.panafricanalliance.com/50-most-important-pan-africans/ incase you don't know, Zik and Nkrumah graduated from the same university in the US and both share the same political ideology. Due to their achievements, they have a building dedicated and named after them to celebrate them as pan africanists. |

Rumxy: Pan-Africanism exists as a governmental and grassroots objective. Pan-African advocates include leaders such as Haile Selassie, Julius Nyerere, Ahmed Sékou Touré, Kwame Nkrumah, King Sobhuza II, Thomas Sankara and Muammar Gaddafi, grassroots organizers such as Marcus Garvey and Malcolm X, academics such as W. E. B. Du Bois, and others in the diaspora. Zik was just a swagger jacker. A scrub 3 Likes |

Precious4real50: Awolowo also have roads named after him in Abuja, but please and please how many streets in the whole of the east and Abuja, have more clout, is more strategic and have half as much visibility as any of dose? You know what? On the average 100 times more igbo uses those roads than the number of Yorubas or any one else that are aware of all those audio monuments you mention for Zik! It is not the number of monuments that matter, it is how strategic they are, as i type, millions of your brother's livelihood depend on those streets, am not sure a yoruba man will care if they ban him from visiting any of your so called Zik's monuments, but millions of igbos will starve if they stop them from visiting those roads in Lagos. Just stating facts! 3 Likes 1 Share |

There is a big difference between being the best and greatest. Saying that Tinubu is the greatest Nigerian politician is an insult to even the SW who had Awolowo not to talk of Nigeria as a whole that have had Zik, Bello etc. I think the right word should be that Tinubu is the best political strategist in this present political dispensation. Even his strongest critics won't argue with that. |

senatordave1: Ahmadu Bello towering above Awo is debatable. He might have been a very good politician in the sense of popularity but definitely not in terms of development |

adekolaelect: I guess Tinubu was not fortunate in 1999. Tinubu might have control of the Lagos machinery and some of SW states, but remember he only grew into national prominence in 2015. So you can't use regional politics to determine national appeal. |

Rumxy:Your last sentence is apt. Tinubu still remains a regional leader as far as we can see. Buhari is also a regional leader albeit a president. None of the two can be compared to OBJ |
