To be candid, I am one of those who are disappointed with Abure led Labour Party.....I can see how sad is Prof Pat Utomi...

[@joshuafrank5838]

Are you aware that professor pat utomi supported and campaigner for Buhari in 2007, 2011 and 2015? Are you aware that apc manifesto was written in pat Utomi’s house? Evidence to these facts are on his official twitter page.

[@kelechukwuanozyk7605]

​@@joshuafrank5838Yes, Professor Utomi supported Buhari and Buhari failed woefully and he left him. In 2011 and 2015, Buhari came to Prof Utomi, he told him his plans and Prof Supported. Afterwards, Buhari failed. So are you Blaming Prof. Utomi for Buhari failure?

You are right on point, a country where most elite is consumed by me, mine and myself to capture state power. It is unfortunate that such a lovely country is broken and now on oxygen. After indipendence there was a country not anymore. Thank you Prof.

[@adekunleajisebutu3850]

It's so sad. I saw this years ago and bailed in 1992. I didn't look back and had no regret.

[@franklyn-valokeke269]

Dangote controls at least 3 sectors of the economy with a monopolistic unfriendly economic system. Now he is leading the economic team. My questions are will Dangote petroleum products price be very low when he is the only person and company who is given the license to refine crude oil

[@franklyn-valokeke269]

Would Dangote petroleum price be regulated by the federal government to the lowest price world wide. Why did the federal government issue only Dangote the license for refining. Dangote oligarchy is not helping Nigeria. The federal government should issue licenses to citizens who have the capability to produce in line with climate laws and environmental regulations protection standards and laws. Nigeria should issue licenses to most people in the east, south, west without stigmatisation.

[@geraldculbertson3248]

it's pay back bro, you will be shocked to hear later that tinubu is getting mad cut from that refinery. At first it was meant to be built in Ogun state but tinubu hijacked it and brought it to lagos

[@ogbonnaya1004]

Prof’s analysis of the composition of the economic team is excellent. You have monopolists in the private sector who constitute the 1% of the 1%. Those who enjoy the status quo and the current order. I am not expecting much from it.

[@okachikpalukwu1679]

In Nigeria, we have journalists who write nonsense, and lawyers and judges who defend the indefensible! Instead of sticking together as professions charged with holding politicians and lawmakers accountable on behalf of the citizens and for the betterment of the country, we have journalists and lawyers who play tribalism and tarnish the image of their various professions as a result. In other parts of the world, politicians resign from office because there are consequences for their actions. If the citizens do not hold them accountable, the lawyer and journalists of the country would hold them accountable and force them out of office by investigating and publishing their crimes. In Nigeria, lawyers and journalists praise these people and give them hope that staying in office, even when the people do not want them, can be defended. Journalists do not write against it, and lawyers do not speak against it. Otherwise, how can a certificate forger, a career criminal, and a drug baron be the president of Nigeria? Why are Nigerians quietly accepting it as if it is right? Otherwise, how can we allow a bad precedence to be set in our elections and in our democracy and no one is speaking up? In 2017, President Buhari died in office. Instead of our lawyers and journalists insisting that the right thing be done, they helped the politicians to bury the matter until today. As a result of their acquiescence, Nigeria was ruled by a dead president for 6 years, as they plundered the country’s resources. And the same lies are still paraded around today, as they continue to insist that the person posing as Buhari is actually Buhari. It is a shame! The world is watching, and history is recording!

[@lawrenceonuorah6019]

Your ideas sir are very excellent. My questions are from where will the money come?. Secondary have we accepted to look at how our forefathers made such progress? Competition to me was what led them to make such progress. The Nigeria country can not survive with this step and at 97.34 tillion Naira debt. All we will achieve is growing round on a vicious circle. .

[@aigbekaenosaigbovo8607]

If Nigeria enter production today, everybody will want to be a producer. That's Nigeria problem. Everybody want to be a politicians now. Which is Nigeria problem,no senator kicked against buying expensive cars all across different political party. Nigeria need help.

Togo has just adopted the parliamentary system of democracy, breaking away from the presidential system which they copied from France in 1960. So, no longer presidential elections in Togo. Other African countries are getting ready to embark on the same journey.

Prof, you are talking to ThiefTinubu, who did not go to school but forged his certificate. What do you expect much from a con man?

[@anthonyuwejamomere5197]

The Nigeria's legislators have the responsibility under the constitution to bring reform to the country by the way of returning to the parliamentary system of government. But these legislators are in the firm grip of the president and governors who are beneficiaries of this unprofitable presidential form of government.

Reforming to leaderships is the problem. Always about picking a leader. Africa has never grown by leadership. What is missing is rule by people. Citizens assembly of sortition of normal people to guide and help keep morality. Give them no confidence vote. It will nullify the scramble to get in.

Prof was asked about his party but he was just deflecting and speak in general terms. He left his friend (BAT) for Obi , unfortunately his choice lost and he is depressed about Nigeria. He is economical with the truth

[@nubosite]

What a shameless putrid view for anyone to have, after listening to this. As a civilisation, we r so so behind, as a people we r so so backward, but individually, we have excelled globally, but we would remain below other nations and races who have successfully developed politically, socially and economically as a people. Prof as an individual is a huge success, but he can’t talk amongst his friends when he identifies as a Nigerian or Deltan. He is strenuously trying to fix that and here you r playing per politics with someone trying to free our generation (including urs) from poverty of the mind and resources.

[@Omojoy4sure]

Sanctimonious nubosite can you keep quiet. The people are tired of your gibberish talk. The Prof in discuss was a close friend of Tinubu for over 10 years but switched camp for personal gains. Your attempt to paint a new narrative is not working. Now , let discuss the content of your views. Can anyone take you and your family out of poverty? The answer is capital NO. Even in the time of Jesus Christ, the entire nation of Israel was not rich. There shall be poor and Rich in any society. The path to riches is your ability to coordinate your physical strength and mental strength plus willingness to take risk, when opportunity arises that is what makes you rich. If the noble ideas of the Prof , works with the reality of people, he should contest for elected office . The facts is he chose the wrong horse to bet on, he should take his Lost.

I can seriously see how frustrated this man is but the fact that they kept shying away from the real problem of Nigeria is what will keep our pple and black Africans in this sorry state we find ourselves today. I think the country needs to split if possible into 4 so that pple will work hard and development will come. Its difficult to work in a country where half wants a certain society while the remaining half wants another type of society. You will end up being stagnant and not moving forward. We are too diversed to progress no matter how you try to pretend or no matter how you change the constitution no chukwuma will ever be anything in the core north and no Abayomi will ever be accepted in the southeast while no Mohammed will ever be trusted to command the affairs of South south this is pure fact and we can never change that mind set. Pple try to give example with America but anywhere you find urself as an American in united states is home for you. The contraption called Nigeria is irredeemable
