Take the statistics of those shouting Obi left and right... You don't need to look elsewhere for those supporting a candidate because of tribe.
For us, we're desirous of results and progress. Therefore, the competence, capacity, and antecedents of the contestants are the key considerations. You don't approach intelligent people with also these primordial sentiments and empty talks that provide no enviable references but only promises by a crooked politician who can do anything (including jumping from one party to another, lying, and quoting wrong statistics) to deceive the gullible followers.

When Igbos were supporting Obasanjo, Yaradua and Atiku, it was not because of tribe, now that they support Obi, it suddenly amounts to tribalism.

Not saying some Igbos are not tribalistic, same way some Yoruba's and Hausa are tribalistic. Whatever rocks your boat

So in all the epistle that Farooq wrote this is the only thing you could deduce from it.
Igbos voted Abiola, they voted Obasanjo & they said they want to vote Obi this time.
And your tribalistic acumen was triggered. Pity!

The tribalist here is you, pitobi and your people. Yoruba people will always be greater than you.

Hmm oya keep deceiving them, but the truth is more than 70% of northerners don't even know this Peter obi. And the remaining 30% that know who he is, doesn't believe that an igbo will ever meant good to northerners especially Muslims. And they are right, igbos hate us so bad that they can't even hide it anymore. That's why we can't trust them.

I'm talking from experience, I have been to the east and all what I saw is hate, discrimination, and sentiment from the hotel staff where I lodged down to the street vendors I approached trying to buy something. That's why I thanked God that I made the right decision serving in the south-south instead. As I was heading home after my short stay in the East, I keep wondering why my fellow Northern Muslims decided to live in this kinda toxic environment.

Cc agboriotejoye, kyase,trinitycian, kperogi captured everything.nw is sitting aloof,atiku is only popular among ne Muslims but not in borno yobe.northern xtians are going towards obi.kperogi uncle confusion shows that the northerners are thinking of tinubu and atiku equally.both will evenly share votes,no one will have an outright win.
Finally,atiku is too liberal and not fanatical to endear himself to northern Muslims.they don't like him much.a massive win in sw will be enough

massob was already dead as at when yaradua assumed office. Through out Jonathan Era we didn't know they exist until he lost his election.
Massob was rendered useless by Obasanjo. Endless arrests, prolonged detention and harassment, got to them finally.
Obasanjo was fair to igbos too, so MASSOB did not get much support.
IPOB was already active during the time of Jonathan, but his government nipped the agitation on the bud.
Buhari chose war instead of using common sense, and he ended up making IPOB popular.

What then happens to Yusuf, so some Northerners have apathy towards Peter Obi because of Biafra but have no apathy towards Atiku, kwanwaso because of bandits, Boko Haram, herdsmen.

I still think the problem of Nigeria is largely ignorance and partly unlearned affliction arising from unleashed tribal fears and hatred. This is not resolved amicably then one day Russia Vs Ukraine will happen here

The difference is crystal clear cos even on nairaland when bht and bandits strike both the north and south condemn it. But when when biafra and unknown gunmen strike the north condemn it while the east hail them both offline and online.

Farooq never said his parternal uncle is a medical doctor,he said a UK trained medical personnel. Go back and cross check,or is it because the narative did not favour your principal.

On the contrary, Igbos are the only ethnic group that have always voted and supported other tribes.
From Obasanjo, to Yaradua and Atiku, and to Jonathan.

It baffles me how you don't see yourself as a tribalist judging from your above comment
It's a liar, you did all these out of no choice.

F.M and A.M radio station (night 5-10 p.m for southern Nigeria)(he should check for Muslim praying times in the North) will do the rural magic in Native languages.

"Because Obi is making a mark, however imperceptible, in these regions where he was previously unknown, we should recognize that he is no longer the underdog that he once was. In order to avoid a repeat of Buhari, critical citizens should ask Obi hard, soul-searching questions because he could be president.

For example, why did he allow the Anambra State University branch of ASUU to go on strike for more than six months and even going so far as to sack the school’s vice chancellor “because of his alleged romance with the striking workers of the university,” according to the Daily Sun of January 19, 2011. How is he different from Buhari in this regard?

Why did he allow doctors in Anambra State to go on strike for 13 months, which led to many needless deaths? The doctors called off their strike without Obi meeting their demands. And he implemented the no-work-no-pay rule when Anambra civil servants went on strike to demand to be paid minimum wage.

While he was governor of Anambra, he played typical Nigerian politics of divide and rule. He played Catholics against Anglicans and even stigmatized political opponents as “Yoruba” people, according to Professor Okey Ndibe who wrote extensively on him.

“It is similarly appalling that a governor who reportedly has ambitions for higher political office could not restrain himself from disparaging Mr. Ngige as a Yoruba candidate,” Ndibe wrote in his April 18, 2011, column titled “Peter Obi, Akunyili and Political Folly.” “Even if we accepted the silly argument that the ACN was a Yoruba party – so what? Is the governor allergic to forging political alliances with the Yoruba? Is he not aware that such appeals to base, ethnic sentiments would return to haunt him if he ever seeks to be a political player at the national level?”

That was prophetic. This doesn’t make Obi any worse than his opponents. But because he could be president, we should interrogate him so we won’t be blindsided".

The above allegations/questions should and must be urgently addressed by Peter Obi. Because the presidential seat is too country-unifying to be occupied by someone who is biased and has little regard for law and fairness.

As for those that would say "nobody is perfect" as such he should be excused, especially because alternatives seem worse should be reminded that old habits die hard. If he gets away with them, he will likely do worst if elected, as being done by president Buhari.
#Thanks Farooq A. Kperogi, and the poster! It's a worthy read.

Na wa for Politics o! So those people in whose states Peter Obi is making inroads are no longer Hausa and Fulani Cows? So one of them who's Nigeria's president is no longer Bubu, Cloned Buhari, the Vegetable and Jubril of Sudan? What's it that Expediency will not make a desperate presidential candidate do? Tinubu who has been making his own inroads since 1999 was cursed by them because according to them, he brought the calamity called Buhari - a northerner o! Alex Ekwueme who was vice president to one of these Fulani Cows has remained blameless till today. Their forgotten leader, Azikiwe, who formed alliance with these Fulani Cows in 1959 and 1978 has remained blameless till today. These people are genuine Pharisees, if you ask me. Now, Bingo is returning to its vomit and it's chewing it as a cow would the cud, and yet they're clapping! The Almight God must have created the Igbo using the leftovers of the clay he worked with on Saturday night, when he was already done with His work of Creation and was about to cease from His exertions of the previous six days! What a people!

Just see the trash this one is typing, we are talking about electing a competent leader with capacity and your on about ethnic politics...that's the only game you lots know how to play, devide people along ethnic lines, it will not work this time, people are smarter, and I mean people from most parts of the country and not just the southeast cos in your silly minds only Igbo's support Obi...I had no idea I was Igbo.

Has whatever fears people or the ethnic group your castigating had about Buhari not all come to pass?? are we not in a deeper mess than we were over 7 years ago??, So please what exactly is your point??

The old drug baron thinks Nigeria is his property with stupid statements like * it's my turn *...I don't blame him, I blame the people that have been giving him false godlike status. we will tell him with our votes that Nigeria belongs to Nigerians. No more ethnic politics. Nigeria must rise.

And yet, your people have community there.
Living and marrying.

I even doubt you are from the north. Yoruba batists are well known to formenting division.

If you like vote peter obi, if you like don't.

Everybody will get the country they deserve.
After you have finished voting, you have the next 8yrs to manage the nonsense you have voted for.

No be me go feed you na.

I read alot about urchins asking Obidients what Peter Obi did in Anambra state....And when asked the same question, they will say that Tinubu lay the foundation of good governance.

The other person went ahead to say that, other governors of Anambra state outperformed Peter Obi.

They refused to accept that Obi saved money for other governors to make use of. But wants us to believe that Tinubu who did nothing but converted Lagos state to his private business did a good job to be appointing Managers that will manage Lagos for him while he's the CEO of Lagos state.

The North will gradually get in touch with the reality. I believe that Datti is doing little to influence the region. He needs to do more to create awareness if he wants to win with Peter Obi.


WHAT STUPID foundation did Tinubu lay down in Lagos? the foundation of god fatherism, thuggery, intimidation, looting, favoritism, manipulation and imposition of candidates on the party? turning Lagos into a one-party (APC) state where only his handpicked candidate wins every election and opposition party is non-existent? Is that what we want NIGERIA to become ?
