Dr Damages seeing u in ur costume on d street of Lagos is a big wow! You remembered taking a complete costume n crew wen going to Lagos dat is awesome. Nigerians pls wake up and do the needful. We need to take it back pls.
Hi me fellow good Nigerians, I just get information from my 45years old entrepreneur younger Sister back home in Benin City that APC Party has been trying to corrupt her and our 87 years old mother a former women leader of one of those numerous party that formed APC PARTY has just renewed her commitment to APC the good news is she can tell the difference between us and the old gorgeous I couldn't stop laughing 😅😅😅 Apparently, she's upset that Benin people were throwing stones at Oshiomhole when he came home to vote in the postponed election! So I said to my sister pls let our mother know that everyone in the family now is all Sowore's supporters! From her biological and adopted children and their kids are physical, spiritually and mentally AAC members and supporters, we want our country back like yesterday!!!
Rudolph, Jesus did not die on Friday. There is a yearly sabbath and a weekly sabbath , that yearly sabbath was on a Friday and preparation day of that sabbath was on a Thursday ( the day in which Jesus died) . This is usu confused with weekly sabbath which was a Saturday and hence confused with the day of Jesus death!
They don't want to say who they are voting anymore because they are now ashamed of associating themselves with Atiku and Buhari. "We must start introducing a culture of shame in Nigeria" - Omoyele Sowore. Sowore words are beginning to work. Atiku and Buhari supporters are no longer bold to openly identify with PDP and APC. This might mean that we have a chance to win them over
Please o please o, sowore please can u go to anambra state to campaign most of the people their don't know you all they talk about is pdp apc, useless old cargos party please endeavor to carry ur campaign team their.
Why Buhari, Atiku? Nigerians Should Vote Moghalu Kingsley Moghalu of the Young Progressive Party (YPP) is by far the best presidential candidate in this weekend’s general elections. By any rational measure, he towers above the two men touted as frontrunners in the presidential race - incumbent President Muhammadu Buhari of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and Atiku Abubakar of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP). Moghalu is so superior to the two men that - in a political universe that wasn’t absurd - both Buhari and Atiku would not be in the running at all. Instead, they would cast their votes for the YPP candidate. Of course, I am not holding my breath for President Buhari and former Vice President Atiku to endorse Moghalu. Nor am I surprised that many Nigerians, handicapped by poor information, persist in a binary worldview that swings between the APC and PDP. What I can neither fathom nor forgive is the laziness, ineptitude and ignorance manifested by that Nigerian demographic bracket that is supposedly enlightened. Included in that group are graduates of universities, polytechnics and colleges of education. This cohort, whose members reign on social media and hold court at ubiquitous beer and pepper soup joints, chants the maddening creed that Nigerian voters have only two presidential candidates to choose from - the wretched Buhari or the equally inadequate Atiku. I was in Nigeria when a crucial debate took place between several presidential candidates in this weekend’s elections. Even though Buhari was invited to the televised affair, he chose to keep away. Atiku was also expected at the debate. He actually showed up at the venue, briefly, and then vamoosed. His argument: that Buhari’s absence from the stage rendered moot his own participation. In the event, Kingsley Moghalu, Fela Durotoye of the Alliance for New Nigeria, and Oby Ezekwesili of the Allied Congress Party of Nigeria squared off. It was an illumining debate, and featured robust exchanges. With clarity and eloquence, the debaters offered their visions and programs for rescuing Nigeria from its crippling developmental crises. Yet, in the wake of the debate, many Nigerians - included the so-call enlightened ones - seemed preoccupied with the two absentee candidates. A few friends and acquaintances told me that, as Buhari and Atiku were no-shows, the debate was a non-event. That attitude, I thought, indicated the disturbing depth of Nigeria’s malaise. Come to think of it, Buhari had excellent reasons for keeping away from the debate; his presidency has been nothing short of disastrous. He has spent much of his tenure in Britain, tending to his failing health. Were he a patriot, he might have realized that the running of any country - much less one as complex and trouble-prone as Nigeria - is no business for a sickly person. He should have resigned, pure and simple. Even when he was in Abuja, Nigerians noticed little if any difference. He seemed content to doze as his country went to the dumpsters. He arrived in office with a terribly limited compass. His major political appointments, including in key security agencies, showed that, for him, Nigeria began in Daura and did not extend much beyond Katsina State. Before the 2015 elections, I had predicted that Buhari would prove a dud; as president, he was worse. His bid for a second term is - there’s no better way to put it - ridiculous. It’s also an insult to Nigerians who now have proof, if proof was needed, that this emperor has no clothes - that he simply doesn’t have the fiber and vision to lead a hamlet, much less a nation. If he had showed up at the debate, Nigerians would have seen a fumbling, confounded president on display. Atiku, too, had good reasons for absconding from the debate. His party, the PDP, set the tone for the current maladies that plague Nigeria. These grave disorders include electoral fraud, reckless plunder of public treasuries, recruitment of some of country’s worst people into public life, institution of godfatherism, veneration of rustics as godfathers, enthronement of lawlessness, inflation of the powers of the executive arm of government at the expense of the judicial and legislative arms, emasculation of local governments, unbridled transfers of public assets to private pockets, inexcusably bloated packages for holders of public office, and scant attention to the basic needs of Nigerians. Atiku was, with former President Olusegun Obasanjo, a major player in the abortion of Nigeria’s promise, the distortion of Nigerians’ expectations for a vibrant, development-focused democracy. Atiku’s critics have rightly called to question his role in the privatization of some of Nigeria’s key assets. Should Atiku become president, the augury for Nigerians is dire. He’s already warned us that he intends to enrich his friends and to sell off more of the country’s prized assets. Note what he didn’t say: he never said he’d invite his friends to bring their gifts to enrich Nigeria. Nor did he commit to a plan to ensure that those who acquired public assets - like power distribution companies - live up to their commitments to the Nigerian people. Atiku has other negatives. Despite the fanfare of his recent visit to the US, Atiku kids himself if he thinks that it’s not common knowledge that, for several years, he stayed away from America on account of the certain legal jeopardy he faced there. Atiku would have impoverished, not improved, the televised presidential debate. Nigerians are famous for excusing moral deficits by declaring that a person is not a saint. I’m not in the business of prospecting for saints. I’m looking for a person of vision, mental acumen, imagination and historical perspective who understands the depth of Nigeria’s travails - and is equipped to implement paradigm-shifting reforms. Here’s the point. Nigeria is in deep, deep doo-doo. More and more Nigerians now haunt refuse dumps for food. Power supply remains epileptic, hampering enterprise and rendering Nigeria inhospitable to its citizens. Healthcare is a foreign idea to most Nigerians. Jobs are scarce. The educational system is in a shambles. The country’s infrastructure is inadequate and in disrepair. Nigerians have been reduced to neo-animal states of existence. Anybody who denies it is a fool or shameless beneficiary from the destitution of millions. Or both. Buhari has demonstrated that he has no answers. In fact, I believe that his first term, a certified disaster, represented the best he has to give. To reelect him would amount to Nigerians pleading for more misery, more doldrums, and more death at the hands of marauding herdsmen who kill and occupy land. Give it to Atiku, he’s likely to be incrementally better than Buhari in at least one respect: he’ll invite a wider circle of friends-from north, south, east and west-to dine on the thinning carcass of Nigeria. Moghalu is cut from a different cloth. He and a handful of other candidates possess the vision and enlightenment to move the dial from the zone of hopeless to that of hope. Of that group - which includes Durotoye and Tope Fasua - he stands out. Where Buhari and Atiku would be incapable of seeing beyond Nigeria’s crude oil earnings, Moghalu recognizes that - as he said in a popular lecture - oil is the “god of small things.” His profound sense of history will release him from the lazy mindset of Nigeria’s current and past misleaders who view high earnings from our crude as an excuse to waste and low earnings as a handy excuse for their incompetence. Nigerian voters should recognize the critical nature of their country’s condition. We -especially the enlightened among us - must realize the urgency of our situation, the desperate state of our being. That’s why it galls to hear people say, in one breath, that Moghalu is the best candidate in the election and, in the next breath, declare that he is too young and inexperienced, doesn’t have “structure,” money, or a presence in the rural areas. My answer to such cynics: first, make a commitment to vote for him because he’s the best. Don’t recycle a failed Buhari or endorse an underwhelming Atiku. Second, the likes of Nnamdi Azikiwe and Obafemi Awolowo were not Methuselahs when they took on British colonialism. Third, if Moghalu has no “structure,” why not enlist yourself as part of his “structure”? Why not persuade your friends, acquaintances and drinking buddies to vote for him? If he’s not a blip in your hometown, why, make calls on his behalf to your relatives there. For that matter, if you happen to have the contacts for Buhari and Atiku, ask them to do the right thing - for themselves and their posterity - by renouncing their ambitions. Heck, they should vote for Moghalu! Okey Ndibe
@@sherrydamng l called my friends yesterday that, since election is Saturday this week they still have time to campaign, they said no that INEC said no more campaigning. So I don't know if is true, thanks.
Hello Dr. Damage. I came across you at Agege, Lagos. Then, I posted a picture I took with you on Facebook. People said you resemble Dr. Goodluck Ebele Jonathan.
God first be deceiving yourself if you think things will change with Atiku nonsense as if Nigeria was ever work I talkless of the person that is coming to sell nnpc and the remaining Nigeria
Doctor i'm also in Nigeria now(in Lagos precisely)and i want to say that so many people here believe so much in PDP or APC and will tell you that all other parties are wasting their time as they won't be given a chance and that they're incapable of handling the affairs fo Nigeria,and i'm like seriously?don't they know these two parties are the same people?smg While so many don't have their PVCs,so many blieve that going out to qeue at a polling station to vote in an Election that the votes never decides,is one putting his or her life in danger or at risk of Election violence,so the government is left to decide who wins.a lot is going on here.so sad
Hay!! my people self dey fear too much, Dem fear for the air around us that most of them in this video are even afraid to mention who they are going to vote...
adeyemi adewole Do you know Senators and Reps could be recalled. Sowore will reveal all the dirty things they do in the inner room and it will be so obvious to common men that those guys are the clogs in the wheel. Also, being a President, he will be very popular and he can use his influence in the recall.. In another vein, remember that virtually all those Senators and Reps have one criminal case or the other. Sowore can quickly activate that and the new reformed Justice system that will be on ground will serve them right in no time. Nigerian President is very powerful.
I always love individual's position in the Naija issue but ONE THING IS CLEAR FROM THE ONSET: To vote, not to vote or who to vote cannot be the important thing to liberate ourselves in this country. Voting has never solved any problem in Nigeria and can never. Any sincere, genuine and pragmatic naija mind knows this and SHOULD NEITHER VOTE NOR WORRY whether he has pvc or whether there's election or not. Our focus and concentration should be on foundamental issue that we have never had a country. If Ojukwu (the most trusted patroit of our time) who at Aburi Ghana, discussed how we could have acountry but the agreement was not allowed to see the light of day? Is it all these appointees of the Fulani Oligarchi's company called nigeria who, "By loyalty" will serve the interest of there Oga Cabals, that will be allowed to succeed?
The India guy knows what "civilization" brought to India soon Nigeria children's will all be paying the world for Money they don't know how it was spent. Soon we will understand all the meaning of this big shopping malls

GOD'S PRESIDENCY: The only viable option for Nigeria. By Iherue Chibuike U. (2/15/2019) *BUHARI have lost the required mental and physical fitness/comportment to govern Nigeria. Obviously, he is NOT an option for me in tomorrow's Presidential election. *ATIKU is fitter than the former and will try but would need God to make even the slightest positive impact owing to the disjointed Nigeria's political system and governance setup. *DR. REV. KING will automatically make Nigeria rejoice because "when the righteous is on the throne, the nations rejoice". More than ever before, our country is gifted a real choice between governance by Men who would ask God to help them succeed AND being governed by Jehovah El'Shaddai himself; in the exact manner God DIRECTLY ruled the olden day Israel through prudent & upright men like Moses, Joshua and David when the nation's prosperity knew no boundaries. Therefore, a vote for NATIONAL ACTION COUNCIL (NAC) and DR. REV. KING is a conscious choice of God's direct leadership in Nigeria. VOTE WISELY!

Why Buhari, Atiku?
Nigerians Should Vote Moghalu
Kingsley Moghalu of the Young Progressive Party (YPP) is by far the best presidential candidate in this weekend’s general elections. By any rational measure, he towers above the two men touted as frontrunners in the presidential race - incumbent President Muhammadu Buhari of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and Atiku Abubakar of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP). Moghalu is so superior to the two men that - in a political universe that wasn’t absurd - both Buhari and Atiku would not be in the running at all. Instead, they would cast their votes for the YPP candidate.
Of course, I am not holding my breath for President Buhari and former Vice President Atiku to endorse Moghalu. Nor am I surprised that many Nigerians, handicapped by poor information, persist in a binary worldview that swings between the APC and PDP. What I can neither fathom nor forgive is the laziness, ineptitude and ignorance manifested by that Nigerian demographic bracket that is supposedly enlightened. Included in that group are graduates of universities, polytechnics and colleges of education. This cohort, whose members reign on social media and hold court at ubiquitous beer and pepper soup joints, chants the maddening creed that Nigerian voters have only two presidential candidates to choose from - the wretched Buhari or the equally inadequate Atiku.
I was in Nigeria when a crucial debate took place between several presidential candidates in this weekend’s elections. Even though Buhari was invited to the televised affair, he chose to keep away. Atiku was also expected at the debate. He actually showed up at the venue, briefly, and then vamoosed. His argument: that Buhari’s absence from the stage rendered moot his own participation.
In the event, Kingsley Moghalu, Fela Durotoye of the Alliance for New Nigeria, and Oby Ezekwesili of the Allied Congress Party of Nigeria squared off. It was an illumining debate, and featured robust exchanges. With clarity and eloquence, the debaters offered their visions and programs for rescuing Nigeria from its crippling developmental crises.
Yet, in the wake of the debate, many Nigerians - included the so-call enlightened ones - seemed preoccupied with the two absentee candidates. A few friends and acquaintances told me that, as Buhari and Atiku were no-shows, the debate was a non-event.
That attitude, I thought, indicated the disturbing depth of Nigeria’s malaise. Come to think of it, Buhari had excellent reasons for keeping away from the debate; his presidency has been nothing short of disastrous. He has spent much of his tenure in Britain, tending to his failing health. Were he a patriot, he might have realized that the running of any country - much less one as complex and trouble-prone as Nigeria - is no business for a sickly person. He should have resigned, pure and simple. Even when he was in Abuja, Nigerians noticed little if any difference. He seemed content to doze as his country went to the dumpsters. He arrived in office with a terribly limited compass. His major political appointments, including in key security agencies, showed that, for him, Nigeria began in Daura and did not extend much beyond Katsina State. Before the 2015 elections, I had predicted that Buhari would prove a dud; as president, he was worse. His bid for a second term is - there’s no better way to put it - ridiculous. It’s also an insult to Nigerians who now have proof, if proof was needed, that this emperor has no clothes - that he simply doesn’t have the fiber and vision to lead a hamlet, much less a nation. If he had showed up at the debate, Nigerians would have seen a fumbling, confounded president on display.
Atiku, too, had good reasons for absconding from the debate. His party, the PDP, set the tone for the current maladies that plague Nigeria. These grave disorders include electoral fraud, reckless plunder of public treasuries, recruitment of some of country’s worst people into public life, institution of godfatherism, veneration of rustics as godfathers, enthronement of lawlessness, inflation of the powers of the executive arm of government at the expense of the judicial and legislative arms, emasculation of local governments, unbridled transfers of public assets to private pockets, inexcusably bloated packages for holders of public office, and scant attention to the basic needs of Nigerians.
Atiku was, with former President Olusegun Obasanjo, a major player in the abortion of Nigeria’s promise, the distortion of Nigerians’ expectations for a vibrant, development-focused democracy. Atiku’s critics have rightly called to question his role in the privatization of some of Nigeria’s key assets. Should Atiku become president, the augury for Nigerians is dire. He’s already warned us that he intends to enrich his friends and to sell off more of the country’s prized assets. Note what he didn’t say: he never said he’d invite his friends to bring their gifts to enrich Nigeria. Nor did he commit to a plan to ensure that those who acquired public assets - like power distribution companies - live up to their commitments to the Nigerian people.
Atiku has other negatives. Despite the fanfare of his recent visit to the US, Atiku kids himself if he thinks that it’s not common knowledge that, for several years, he stayed away from America on account of the certain legal jeopardy he faced there. Atiku would have impoverished, not improved, the televised presidential debate.
Nigerians are famous for excusing moral deficits by declaring that a person is not a saint. I’m not in the business of prospecting for saints. I’m looking for a person of vision, mental acumen, imagination and historical perspective who understands the depth of Nigeria’s travails - and is equipped to implement paradigm-shifting reforms.
Here’s the point. Nigeria is in deep, deep doo-doo. More and more Nigerians now haunt refuse dumps for food. Power supply remains epileptic, hampering enterprise and rendering Nigeria inhospitable to its citizens. Healthcare is a foreign idea to most Nigerians. Jobs are scarce. The educational system is in a shambles. The country’s infrastructure is inadequate and in disrepair. Nigerians have been reduced to neo-animal states of existence. Anybody who denies it is a fool or shameless beneficiary from the destitution of millions. Or both.
Buhari has demonstrated that he has no answers. In fact, I believe that his first term, a certified disaster, represented the best he has to give. To reelect him would amount to Nigerians pleading for more misery, more doldrums, and more death at the hands of marauding herdsmen who kill and occupy land. Give it to Atiku, he’s likely to be incrementally better than Buhari in at least one respect: he’ll invite a wider circle of friends-from north, south, east and west-to dine on the thinning carcass of Nigeria.
Moghalu is cut from a different cloth. He and a handful of other candidates possess the vision and enlightenment to move the dial from the zone of hopeless to that of hope. Of that group - which includes Durotoye and Tope Fasua - he stands out. Where Buhari and Atiku would be incapable of seeing beyond Nigeria’s crude oil earnings, Moghalu recognizes that - as he said in a popular lecture - oil is the “god of small things.” His profound sense of history will release him from the lazy mindset of Nigeria’s current and past misleaders who view high earnings from our crude as an excuse to waste and low earnings as a handy excuse for their incompetence.
Nigerian voters should recognize the critical nature of their country’s condition. We -especially the enlightened among us - must realize the urgency of our situation, the desperate state of our being. That’s why it galls to hear people say, in one breath, that Moghalu is the best candidate in the election and, in the next breath, declare that he is too young and inexperienced, doesn’t have “structure,” money, or a presence in the rural areas.
My answer to such cynics: first, make a commitment to vote for him because he’s the best. Don’t recycle a failed Buhari or endorse an underwhelming Atiku. Second, the likes of Nnamdi Azikiwe and Obafemi Awolowo were not Methuselahs when they took on British colonialism. Third, if Moghalu has no “structure,” why not enlist yourself as part of his “structure”? Why not persuade your friends, acquaintances and drinking buddies to vote for him? If he’s not a blip in your hometown, why, make calls on his behalf to your relatives there.
For that matter, if you happen to have the contacts for Buhari and Atiku, ask them to do the right thing - for themselves and their posterity - by renouncing their ambitions. Heck, they should vote for Moghalu!

Doctor i'm also in Nigeria now(in Lagos precisely)and i want to say that so many people here believe so much in PDP or APC and will tell you that all other parties are wasting their time as they won't be given a chance and that they're incapable of handling the affairs fo Nigeria,and i'm like seriously?don't they know these two parties are the same people?smg
While so many don't have their PVCs,so many blieve that going out to qeue at a polling station to vote in an Election that the votes never decides,is one putting his or her life in danger or at risk of Election violence,so the government is left to decide who wins.a lot is going on here.so sad
the people in IDP all have PVC while the others that went to INEC office dont have
Damages in town!
Create effective national postal system. A lot of people will be employed.
Dr.Damages no video at the end of the show. Did you forgot?
Welcome home bor
I MEAN IT NEVER SHOULD HAVE BEEN A CHOICE BETWEEN ATIKU AND BUHARI.
Hay!! my people self dey fear too much, Dem fear for the air around us that most of them in this video are even afraid to mention who they are going to vote...
Today's episode must have been a difficult editing session. Thanks for your work!
Nigeria is a dead country 😒 how can a citizen of a country Denied PVC and National ID 😒😒😒😕😕
I will vote for sowore. If he even wins. He can't control the corrupt Senate animals.
The Constitution will and the people support.
adeyemi adewole Do you know Senators and Reps could be recalled. Sowore will reveal all the dirty things they do in the inner room and it will be so obvious to common men that those guys are the clogs in the wheel. Also, being a President, he will be very popular and he can use his influence in the recall.. In another vein, remember that virtually all those Senators and Reps have one criminal case or the other. Sowore can quickly activate that and the new reformed Justice system that will be on ground will serve them right in no time. Nigerian President is very powerful.
@ettekamba6969 You are right. Criminals are very weak when they see someone who is bold.
hey cant even defend their candidates awon oloshi. they know its embarrassing to suport either buhari or atiku
Illiterate youths ,,,,,, una mumu never do ??
If you mix your Gene with neanderthal you are the mumu

You’d vote for the old corrupt guys because you don’t want to lose your vote. AGBALAGBA smh.
Nah God go vote for you
interesting video bro, i tackled this same topic on my channel .... this is shocking stuff
where is Tomato Jos.? I miss her.
I always love individual's position in the Naija issue but ONE THING IS CLEAR FROM THE ONSET: To vote, not to vote or who to vote cannot be the important thing to liberate ourselves in this country. Voting has never solved any problem in Nigeria and can never.
Any sincere, genuine and pragmatic naija mind knows this and SHOULD NEITHER VOTE NOR WORRY whether he has pvc or whether there's election or not. Our focus and concentration should be on foundamental issue that we have never had a country.
If Ojukwu (the most trusted patroit of our time) who at Aburi Ghana, discussed how we could have acountry but the agreement was not allowed to see the light of day? Is it all these appointees of the Fulani Oligarchi's company called nigeria who, "By loyalty" will serve the interest of there Oga Cabals, that will be allowed to succeed?
The India guy knows what "civilization" brought to India soon Nigeria children's will all be paying the world for Money they don't know how it was spent. Soon we will understand all the meaning of this big shopping malls
Why Buhari, Atiku?
Nigerians Should Vote Moghalu
Kingsley Moghalu of the Young Progressive Party (YPP) is by far the best presidential candidate in this weekend’s general elections. By any rational measure, he towers above the two men touted as frontrunners in the presidential race - incumbent President Muhammadu Buhari of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and Atiku Abubakar of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP). Moghalu is so superior to the two men that - in a political universe that wasn’t absurd - both Buhari and Atiku would not be in the running at all. Instead, they would cast their votes for the YPP candidate.
Of course, I am not holding my breath for President Buhari and former Vice President Atiku to endorse Moghalu. Nor am I surprised that many Nigerians, handicapped by poor information, persist in a binary worldview that swings between the APC and PDP. What I can neither fathom nor forgive is the laziness, ineptitude and ignorance manifested by that Nigerian demographic bracket that is supposedly enlightened. Included in that group are graduates of universities, polytechnics and colleges of education. This cohort, whose members reign on social media and hold court at ubiquitous beer and pepper soup joints, chants the maddening creed that Nigerian voters have only two presidential candidates to choose from - the wretched Buhari or the equally inadequate Atiku.
I was in Nigeria when a crucial debate took place between several presidential candidates in this weekend’s elections. Even though Buhari was invited to the televised affair, he chose to keep away. Atiku was also expected at the debate. He actually showed up at the venue, briefly, and then vamoosed. His argument: that Buhari’s absence from the stage rendered moot his own participation.
In the event, Kingsley Moghalu, Fela Durotoye of the Alliance for New Nigeria, and Oby Ezekwesili of the Allied Congress Party of Nigeria squared off. It was an illumining debate, and featured robust exchanges. With clarity and eloquence, the debaters offered their visions and programs for rescuing Nigeria from its crippling developmental crises.
Yet, in the wake of the debate, many Nigerians - included the so-call enlightened ones - seemed preoccupied with the two absentee candidates. A few friends and acquaintances told me that, as Buhari and Atiku were no-shows, the debate was a non-event.
That attitude, I thought, indicated the disturbing depth of Nigeria’s malaise. Come to think of it, Buhari had excellent reasons for keeping away from the debate; his presidency has been nothing short of disastrous. He has spent much of his tenure in Britain, tending to his failing health. Were he a patriot, he might have realized that the running of any country - much less one as complex and trouble-prone as Nigeria - is no business for a sickly person. He should have resigned, pure and simple. Even when he was in Abuja, Nigerians noticed little if any difference. He seemed content to doze as his country went to the dumpsters. He arrived in office with a terribly limited compass. His major political appointments, including in key security agencies, showed that, for him, Nigeria began in Daura and did not extend much beyond Katsina State. Before the 2015 elections, I had predicted that Buhari would prove a dud; as president, he was worse. His bid for a second term is - there’s no better way to put it - ridiculous. It’s also an insult to Nigerians who now have proof, if proof was needed, that this emperor has no clothes - that he simply doesn’t have the fiber and vision to lead a hamlet, much less a nation. If he had showed up at the debate, Nigerians would have seen a fumbling, confounded president on display.
Atiku, too, had good reasons for absconding from the debate. His party, the PDP, set the tone for the current maladies that plague Nigeria. These grave disorders include electoral fraud, reckless plunder of public treasuries, recruitment of some of country’s worst people into public life, institution of godfatherism, veneration of rustics as godfathers, enthronement of lawlessness, inflation of the powers of the executive arm of government at the expense of the judicial and legislative arms, emasculation of local governments, unbridled transfers of public assets to private pockets, inexcusably bloated packages for holders of public office, and scant attention to the basic needs of Nigerians.
Atiku was, with former President Olusegun Obasanjo, a major player in the abortion of Nigeria’s promise, the distortion of Nigerians’ expectations for a vibrant, development-focused democracy. Atiku’s critics have rightly called to question his role in the privatization of some of Nigeria’s key assets. Should Atiku become president, the augury for Nigerians is dire. He’s already warned us that he intends to enrich his friends and to sell off more of the country’s prized assets. Note what he didn’t say: he never said he’d invite his friends to bring their gifts to enrich Nigeria. Nor did he commit to a plan to ensure that those who acquired public assets - like power distribution companies - live up to their commitments to the Nigerian people.
Atiku has other negatives. Despite the fanfare of his recent visit to the US, Atiku kids himself if he thinks that it’s not common knowledge that, for several years, he stayed away from America on account of the certain legal jeopardy he faced there. Atiku would have impoverished, not improved, the televised presidential debate.
Nigerians are famous for excusing moral deficits by declaring that a person is not a saint. I’m not in the business of prospecting for saints. I’m looking for a person of vision, mental acumen, imagination and historical perspective who understands the depth of Nigeria’s travails - and is equipped to implement paradigm-shifting reforms.
Here’s the point. Nigeria is in deep, deep doo-doo. More and more Nigerians now haunt refuse dumps for food. Power supply remains epileptic, hampering enterprise and rendering Nigeria inhospitable to its citizens. Healthcare is a foreign idea to most Nigerians. Jobs are scarce. The educational system is in a shambles. The country’s infrastructure is inadequate and in disrepair. Nigerians have been reduced to neo-animal states of existence. Anybody who denies it is a fool or shameless beneficiary from the destitution of millions. Or both.
Buhari has demonstrated that he has no answers. In fact, I believe that his first term, a certified disaster, represented the best he has to give. To reelect him would amount to Nigerians pleading for more misery, more doldrums, and more death at the hands of marauding herdsmen who kill and occupy land. Give it to Atiku, he’s likely to be incrementally better than Buhari in at least one respect: he’ll invite a wider circle of friends-from north, south, east and west-to dine on the thinning carcass of Nigeria.
Moghalu is cut from a different cloth. He and a handful of other candidates possess the vision and enlightenment to move the dial from the zone of hopeless to that of hope. Of that group - which includes Durotoye and Tope Fasua - he stands out. Where Buhari and Atiku would be incapable of seeing beyond Nigeria’s crude oil earnings, Moghalu recognizes that - as he said in a popular lecture - oil is the “god of small things.” His profound sense of history will release him from the lazy mindset of Nigeria’s current and past misleaders who view high earnings from our crude as an excuse to waste and low earnings as a handy excuse for their incompetence.

That’s why it galls to hear people say, in one breath, that Moghalu is the best candidate in the election and, in the next breath, declare that he is too young and inexperienced, doesn’t have “structure,” money, or a presence in the rural areas.

GOD'S PRESIDENCY: The only viable option for Nigeria.
By Iherue Chibuike U. (2/15/2019)
*BUHARI have lost the required mental and physical fitness/comportment to govern Nigeria. Obviously, he is NOT an option for me in tomorrow's Presidential election.
*ATIKU is fitter than the former and will try but would need God to make even the slightest positive impact owing to the disjointed Nigeria's political system and governance setup.
*DR. REV. KING will automatically make Nigeria rejoice because "when the righteous is on the throne, the nations rejoice". More than ever before, our country is gifted a real choice between governance by Men who would ask God to help them succeed AND being governed by Jehovah El'Shaddai himself; in the exact manner God DIRECTLY ruled the olden day Israel through prudent & upright men like Moses, Joshua and David when the nation's prosperity knew no boundaries.
Therefore, a vote for NATIONAL ACTION COUNCIL (NAC) and DR. REV. KING is a conscious choice of God's direct leadership in Nigeria. VOTE WISELY!
DON'T GET JESUS INVOLVED IN THIS. THIS IS SACRILEGE
