Jman24:




It still won't make any difference. If you like, put Bishop or archbishop there it's not going to work.

Nigeria lacks a proper structure, operates a military constitution that doesn't reflect nationhood in anyway.
They copied America system but delight in pseudo-federalism

So you can't build anything on weak structures.

Remember, corruption is everywhere in the world but strong institutions minimize it.

Restructuring is needed,but those that will restructure are benefiting from this useless constitution

Therefore you will think revolution can,but the masses that supper are satisfied

Nigeria will never be better in near future

Mumu!
With the way igbos are enjoying everything in Lagos. From money, business down to property. 50% of riches in south east was made from Lagos.
Tinubu made enemies from the indigenous group of some lagosian because of the way he’s giving Igbos freedom in Lagos to do as they wishes, appointing them in positions. Just check Sam egwube. The budget of Lagos is being administered by an Igbo man. Same with Nigeria and both men are chosen by tinubu and they are both igbos.
Sometimes I just pity the man cuz u can’t satisfy humans even if u give them ur eyes to see.
The only hatred for Tinubu is just pure ethnic hatred because if there is even any tribe tribe hating on tinubu. It should be the Yoruba people themselves or maybe Hausa too sha. But sincerely it is unfair for Igbo people to hate on the man.
Sometimes I see the reason why Buhari doesn’t want to have anything do with the igbos because when he see things they are saying about the Tinubu that have been accommodating them in Lagos since 1999 without any intimidation, killings or undue influence. They do their business peacefully, live, feed, marry and raise family here in Lagos without fear of being killed or lynched base on ethnic or religious sentiments unlike the north.
The only reward they give Tinubu is constant swearing and unapologetic opposition daily from one trend to the other. We the Yoruba’s and Lagosians are anxiously waiting for post 2023.

I don't understand Haven't Igbos and other ethnic groups always enjoyed a progressive type of freedom in Lagos? Even going back to the return of slaves from Freetown in the 1800s when many people who were not even ethnic Yoruba settled in Lagos with their slave names, learnt Yoruba and now their family names woven into the history of Lagos from thereon.

You are making it sound as if it all wasn't possible until Tinubu accommodated them. What does that even mean? Let me tell you, the only region that makes fellow Nigerians feel like proper foreigners is the Northern region. People from other ethnic groups live and work freely in PH, Warri, Benin, Uyo, Enugu, Owerri, Calabar, Asaba, Sapele, Makurdi, etc.

The reason why more and most people flood to Lagos is because there are more opportunities there. You almost have no choice. The 2 functioning (federal built & owned) seaports we have in this country is located there. The only truly (federal built & owned) International gateway MMIA Airport is located there. As we speak, Africa's largest refinery is being built there (we all know Dangote is FG ). Until 1991 Lagos was the federal capital of Nigeria so all roads lead there.

Stop talking trash
Igbos have been existing and making it in Lagos before Tinubu's 1999 governornish reign.

Yorubas fought in a civil war for igbos to be in Lagos because of our value.

Have you forgotten how igbos were treated during the elections by your Tinubu. Another Tinubu stooge threatened to push them into the lagoon.

Before the advent of Tinubu, Igbos progressed more in Lagos.
Igbos won up to house of reps in Lagos but now he rigged them all out.

I repeat igbos will suffer more if Tinubu becomes president.

Anything North

Okay it is right

continue fooling yourselves

Tribalism will keep favoring North as all as I can say

President of Nigeria or South west region? CPC group have taking over APC. ACN and others are just dormant members after this new registration.

Oshigun:


Dont mind him. Adebanjo is the worst kind of Yoruba. A sellout who then passionately takes up the duty of sabotaging his own kinsmen for pecuniary gain and so our enemies can profit.

How many times do we see Northerners , evening those in opposing political camps, criticize each other?

This is precisely how they hold on to power they are the worst at using. Yet those of us in the South keep showing we are more greedy and ready to backstabbing our brothers and ethnic group.

Everything is very tense and every advantage must be guarded yet you are coming out to shade Tinubu. Of what good is this man's action to his own Yorubas other than hand more ammunition to the North desperate to hold on to power in 2023 they will keep using to regress us all?

Is Adebanjo , after what we have all seen from Buhari, not wise enough to know Nigeria must gain a 2023 President that is not Fulani or Fulani-controlled? Yet he is an Atiku fan while looking to discredit BAT I am sure he envies deeply.

He I not different from tinubu. He turned funsho Williams down for greedy folk Like tinubu.
One way or the other they end up assasinating funsho Williams
You call him sell out for supporting atiku, i call tinubu sell out for supporting buhari .

Now he support restructuring and no election in 2023 but tinubu support this government and wants 2023 to rule.

Tinubu Is betrayal of the Yoruba race. A constitution that don't give power to the people want to be maintained by greedy politicians like osibanjo/tinubu .

Yoruba land cant be like the north where they support evil and remain backward. If people claim jakande was left behind because of abacha.
Then tinubu will be forgotten because of buhari and his silence . yorubas are not coward. We want odua nation and no more nigeria

ChocolateWine:
Sell this country and give me my share

If they sell it you will be paying debt to the Chinaman in Beijing out of your lean pocket.

You had better manage it till 2023 when each region goes its way.

yorubarere:
Awon afenifebi.... Adebanjo should support his Atifku in peace without involving Tinubu names.

What are you justifying, he supported atiku and tinubu supported buhari what's the difference?

When did buhari became a Yoruba man?

Bola Ahmed Tinubu never said that he will restructure Nigeria. No one can as long as the North is part of this country and hold so much influence. But Tinubu will use his years of experience in governing a complex and complicated state like Lagos to bring about drastic turn around in the affairs of the country. The change will surely be for good.

What change has he brought to Lagos despite the huge population and IGR?
Even though the IGR they who us is not real.

Don't come and compare Lagos to other state as a point.
And don't come here to tell me largest economy in Africa. But instead tell me how Lagos GDP per capital income I so poor

LegoxMetahuman:
lagos is the 5th biggest economy in africa

lagos, has best infrastructure in whole of africa. thats why your people pack themselves like sardines in ekeledichukwu buses to come and sell gala in lagos.


if you have one tinubu in your state, may be your state wont be in such awful state it is today.

nuff said.

Don't boast like illiterate, Nigeria is largest economy and poverty capital of the world .

Wealth is not by GDP but by GDP per capital income. Lagos is very poor and has been looted seriously by tinubu . open your brain and eyes.

No more election in this country we want odua republic. We can't continue supporting criminals because the north does that also.

Papa I don’t agree with you. He has always been an advocate of fiscal federalism and restructuring. All his disciples believe the same including Osinbajo. Except that they are powerless to do that now.

kayjay69:
Bro, please stick to the script.

This is not Tinubu vs Atiku, this is not APC vs PDP, this is about Tinubu and restructuring. We know Tinubu will never restructure Nigeria if he becomes president. Pa Adebanjo has earned the right to support whomever he chooses to just as Mr Tinubu has the right to run for Presidency. You forget that Tinubu single-handed drove the wedge that now exists within the Afenifere, not saying they were all saints but Tinubu tore apart that Yoruba ideological group purely out of spite.

Regardless of Pa Adebanjo's politics, he is right on the money when it comes to Tinubu and restructuring. He may not always be right, he has supported and may have even collected money from PDP. If there is one thing I respect Pa Adebanjo for, it is his consistency on the issue of restructuring.

Lets even speak the truth. It was never tinubu vs atiku

The election was between two fulanis atiku vs buhari

Both yorubas took side shamelessly . and now one is talking about restructuring the other one is planning on becoming president.

Tinubu is the latest betrayal of Yoruba race.

The truth is when you get the power the mindset changes. Anyone that can't openly speak to his people his an hypocrite and should never be trusted.
Tinubu anti democratic act in Lagos as giving him off of what we should be expecting from him as president.
Imposing candidate and sharing money on election eve. These things as made Lagos situation bad. Don't come here to do comparison of Lagos. Instead of comparing Lagos , look at the situation of Lagos.

MrNipplesLover:



I knew that's what u would bring up (favour of North). And u forgot to add agriculture, too.


In nature, Fulani herdsmen don't understand peaceful dialogue, all they understand is violence. It's their nature.

The Yorubas and Igbos didn't go to their land and start terrorizing them.

The fights we are witnessing today, who was the aggressor?

And, lemme tell u, the person that'll make peace and forgiveness is supposed to be the president, but look who we have.


Well, make u no drive me enter another topic entirely, I stop here.


But still, I fear for this country if the Hausas take the presidential seat come 2023.

The Hausas/Fulanis have a huge agenda on power in this country, that's where they are driving us to and it won't be peaceful cos violence is all they know.


We shall see.





Stay blessed, bro.

Restructuring is the key. I've recently thought of maybe "tinubu should just be" but as a bonafide lagosians anytime I see APC politics structure in Lagos I detest that IDEA .

The only way is odua nation. Trust me if Yoruba and igbos comeout in mass for odua/ Biafra peaceful walk.
The north will shiver and do the needful restructuring. Then we won't have to support corrupt individual for national power agenda.
Each region will concentrate on inward development

This is one way to put it, I can't fault your logic.

You should search internet for Osinbajo’s comments a few months ago regarding restructuring. He took us down memory Lane about how he fought federal government up to Supreme Court level to have fiscal federalism when he was attorney general of Lagos. He believes in all these things but his hands are chained when he is not the president. Buhari and his friends do not believe in fiscal federalism and restructuring. Otherwise he would have sent bills to National Assembly to change these things. And they will not resign because it’s better to fight the battle from inside. These Tinubu boys are planted in Buhari government to ensure that they are not schemed out of leadership until they get in control finally. As regards Lagos, you just need to look around other states and you will see that Lagos is the most developed. If Lagos had been under PDP for the past 20 years, there would not have been any development in Lagos. The evidence is found in States like Rivers state where PDP have always ruled with the largest federal income every year. Is Rivers as developed as Lagos. Tinubu faught Obasanjo to a standstill and prevented PDP from entering Lagos because he knows they loot and will not develop Lagos. At that time, Obasonjo took all the states except Lagos in southwest. Tinubu will make sure that he wins for the people, using the money that PDP uses but in a better way than PDP. He continues to ensure that progressives win elections in Southwest so that they can bring development to the people. That’s where he is different from other corrupt politicians.

At bolded has always been a weak defense for tinubu for me. Lagos during time of jakande and the rest was also better than other state.

Computerization of tax collection and increase IGR , tinubu should be commended just like pa lateef jakade.

Lagos has not been faring well from the days of fashola due to heavy corruption in Lagos state.

As an educated yoruba and bonafide lagosian I don't need to go to Ogun state to know my state has problem.
Go and check the GDP per capital income of Lagos state you'll notice many African state are far richer than Lagos state.

We're moving like snail but because we live in a blind city you think its progressive.
Lagos can do far Better than this, we need transparency in our budget and tax income.
We don't want dictator , who knows we might have gotten another awolowo if the peoples choice becomes the governor.

When it comes to Yoruba race don't bring PDP or APC issues up. Yoruba remains Yoruba despite party difference.
Or are you going to justify funsho Williams death because he's not APC?

Nobody should turn yorubas to APC party its a matter of what favors the people not blind loyalist.

If you are looking for accountability I am with you. If you believe that we could be faster in developing it’s possible and I agree with you. Two issues arise: first of all, Lagos is doing far better than any state in Nigeria. Others are doing catch up, like Bornu etc. But when you compare the resources of Rivers and Lagos for example we are far better. And there must be a benchmark for comparison, you cannot compare in isolation. And I stand to be corrected, no PDP state has been well managed like Lagos. You state that some cities or states in Africa are better, give me examples. Lagos the fifth largest economy in Africa. Which cities have larger economies than Lagos in Africa? Please stop giving false information when you debate. All evidence is on internet.

I think you need to know that GDP per capital income defines the economy of a state.
Lagos being the fifth largest economy don't have the best economy compared to other African state.

We all know these terminologies. That’s why we went to school and that’s why we read statistics. You can always interprete figures to suit your argument. The richest is different from the best, and the best is different from the biggest. Mean is different from median and mode. But you cannot disagree it is the fifth biggest economy just like Nigeria being the biggest economy. We all know that South Africa enjoys a higher quality of life and they are richer.

So its very simple Lagos can do better with its GDP but we're not.
This is not time for clapping hands for politicians instead we're supposed to struggle for the best not comparison with states with different ideologies.

I maintain my stand the APC dealership style is dragging Lagos slower. Lagos has an unimaginable capacity if corruption is reduced to %10 percent.

If we have odua nation a transparent economy could cater to the lapses of other southwest state not a "baba sope economy"

To be honest, any leader that is willing to pay the cost both politically and probably mortally, can restructure Nigeria.

I believe Obasanjo had two opportunities, in 1979 (not directly but he could have allowed for a free and fair election which he clearly did not) and between 1999 and 2007. He had the clout, He had the power, He sure as hell had the authority to do it but he chose to prioritise making himself a lifetime king. A wasted opportunity I must say.

Now we both know based on his antecedents, Tinubu can never restructure Nigeria. If he does ascend to the Presidency, he will have made too many deals and I know he will want to keep most if not all of them in a bid to assure him a second term. These deals will never be to the benefit of the average Nigerian talk less of the average Yoruba people. Will Tinubu be better than Buhari? At this stage, a tree will be better than Buhari. But will Nigeria's problems persist, you bet they will and may even take a different turn for the worse (who knows what tomorrow holds really).

Only by restructuring (and I even think as days turn into months and months into years, restructuring is becoming less and less of an option, splitting is becoming the only practical solution) can we all have a chance of determining our futures. I think this is an unbiased view and I believe you will agree.

LegendHero:


Let me ask you a question bro.

Who do you think can restructure Nigeria?

I have a reason for asking.

have heard this like a billion times that restructuring is handled by the Senate house and house of Representatives.
I don't know why the issue of president restructuring keeps popping up

nairavsdollars:
Not even Atiku. They all use restructuring to campaign. Once they win and see the power involved, they change the music

Atiku will make the Fulani more bolder ..he won't be different from Buhari. Enough with the Fulanis' . We have other tribes in the north . They are not the only tribe in that region

Khaleepha5681:



Is there a drop of honesty in your speech for God's sake?

How do you sideline a tribe and call her responsible for our problem?

Please speak with honesty and God fearing

Was Ironsi Hausa or Fulani?

If Igbo are not called calamity,how Fulani will be blamed?

He is right .When Nnamdi Kanu was up and about insulting other tribes and trying to incite the East against the rest of Nigerians , he got a backlash from not only the eastern leaders and politicians from the rest of the south .But it not like that with the north .The north world rather dig thier head in the sand in other not to hear of the atrocities commited by thier people and still backlash the victims for defending themselves .
The Fulanis are bolder and more daring & doing whatever they want in other people land becos thier kin is in power .Your leaders and politicians are all complicit through thier various comment in turning the whole thing upside down .
Northerners ,especially ur elite and politicians are not disturbed about the killing, raping & kidnapping by the Fulanis' In the south but they became were very vocal when people started fighting back and asking the Fulanis to leave thier forest .
You people are terrible ..you should live with urselves .
