Yes!


The electorates can decide and judge about such actions!

If His Excellence, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, feels strategy will favour him, then so be it!

I don’t why people are worried about someone who they believe would not be president, and same time not voting Asiwaju

Let the votes decide!

We will vote for him if he proves himself at the townhall.

Why should a presidential candidate avoid such a good opportunity to market this programmes for the country. What could possible be his fears?

He is bragging about developing Lagos, het him come so we can educate him how Nigeria is an entirely different animal from Lagos. A homogenous small area called Lagos isn't same as the heterogenous behemoth called Nigeria.

How I wish I'd be there when he'd be talking about Lagos vis-a-vis Nigeria , I'd bin that Lagos talk for good.

Segzy19:
Arise just wants to use Tinubu to gain popularity but Tinubu isn't giving them that opportunity. That's why Arise is so pained...

Gain which stupid popularity abeg,you Want to rule but don't want to present yourself to be scrutinized cos of your previous blunders, the sick old drug lord will never rule a sane country. Hypocrites.

Murphyenemuwe:
That's true o cos Lagos is the most backward state in Nigeria

Has Lagos progress visavis the kind of money and revenue it gets?

Come, let me take you to Accra so you can be ashamed

So he already did that on BBC.
Again, Arise is in no position to tell Tinubu what to do or how to campaign...

It is not compulsory to do town hall interview or whatever... Arise should rest... It's a TV station and should not be that overtly bias and partisan.... Tinubu owns TVC... He could have arranged and rehearsed a good interview with a presenter just to fool the public but he has not done that...
It's simply not in his plan... He has been talking publicly to the masses at his various campaigns anyway....

Was it not the same Arise that set trap for Peter Obi, which Obi unknowingly walked into?

Nwaetche:
Nope!

Did you read the statement? Arise CEO said that Tinubu should even go to any media of his choice and do just 8mins of Interview and they will stop making their demand.

CoronaVirusRelo:


Is he constitutionally mandated to do such or at free will?

If the electorates know there onions, let them decide!

You can decide not to vote Asiwaju since he has not been to a debate or town hall meeting. That does not apply to every electorate.

The election will go as planned and electorates will decided.

This should not be a discussion, argument or debate.

Clap for yourself! If he is not ready to face us,then he should jettison the idea of becoming President. You can't be President without selling your manifesto to the people.

Arguments like this baffle so many of us. It doesn't bring out your thinking faculty and good level of cogitation.

I am ashamed of your argument!

Zonefree:

You want Africa to develop and you're rooting for Tinubu, an old sick thieving drug baron to take over from Buhari

he is better than 2 of them, Atiku and Obi

CoronaVirusRelo:
Gibberish!

Let it be known that His Excellence, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu is not constitutionally mandated to attend a town hall meeting or whatsoever!

I don’t know why some unscrupulous elements and hogs are so bent on what’s not!

Leave the choice to the electorates and stop romancing what won’t gain an erection!

true no be by force for tinubu to show for debate,also no be by force to vote for him we have our choice already who attended P.O

Osamabinladenik:

Tinubu holds Lagos to ransom.
He's a drug baron

He has no company but he moves monies in bullion vans. He's dead corrupt and shady

Same old spin and nothing new.

This strategy was used on Buhari, in the end he won handsomely on two occasions after he was labelled a jihadist killer.

You guys dont learn. Towing the same line.

Fyi, Tinubu is already preparing his acceptance speech and is unperturbed by the shenanigans of arise tv.

He wont attend that jamboree of a townhall, but will still win 2023.

He will not show up,because arise tv don't have editing technologies BBC have

at back of my mind and seriously.
Tinubu and Kwankwaso will drag 3rd place because Atiku will humiliate him in northeast and northwest, obi will humble him in Southeast, North Centraland southsouth.

He will be slim first in Southwest.

He can only win a ward in University of Lagos

.

Alake and Onanuga made several allegations against Obaigbena which he properly attended to and refuted. I wonder who in the Tinubu PCC gave the green light to that infantile diatribe which exposes a Tinubu govt as potentially arrogant and petty. A simple "Thisday/Arise leave us alone" echoed loudly would have been the perfect sucker punch but no, you people had to drag our principal down this path. Now is not the time to be combative neither should we be seen as tribal bigots like you clearly portrayed disgustingly even though Arise owner and co are clearly not Igbos.

Were you not in Nigeria when oblaigbena was indicted as one of the people that collected money from Dasuki and he returned #600 million. Also Abati was indicted to have collected money from Dasuki too. You people forget easily that these set of people contributed to the destruction of Nigeria during PDP era.

explain pls

compare Anambra, LAGOS AND ADAMAWA

this Dasuki matter is rubbish and I'm ashamed you brought it up. If we really want to go into it, you won't like the names I mention but that aside, you saw where Obaigbena says he returned the money completely and it was for his properties destroyed by Boko Haram in Abuja.

You should be ashamed of yourself,

You must be a Yoruba man to able to reason very foolish like this.

Presidential debate will not start or end with Tinubu.


Nigeria will never lower her bar because on brainless man wants to be president.

If Tinubu is afraid of Arise News, let him ask NTA to organise one so that he will shut his critics up.

Most of you are so useless and foolish in Nigeria that you can kill yourself for those who are destroying your country.

Go and follow the American presidential election and see how many debates and town hall the go through before election.

I purposely didn't reply to your epistle because I was so sure Obaigbena will respond.
You can see how he stayed on issues without resorting to insults and petty cheapshots.
You can also see clearly who is being ungentlemanly in conduct between both parties.
It's also obvious that you're too biased that you have to jump the gun with Onanuga and Alake's wishy-washy response without waiting to hear from the other side.
You can now take your time and read and see if your points have not been adequately responded to in this statement before raising further questions.
Go to pm news and see the type of gutter news they gave been publishing about Obaigbena since this matter broke. I hope you'll find the heart to condemn them.

So if Boko haram destroyed his property, then the federal govt has to pay him with money meant for the security of the company. Which court gave the judgment that he should be paid the money. Pls. stop believing that nonsense of Obaigbena. Why didn't dasuki gave the same money to other Nigerians that there properly was destroyed in that manner. Obaigbena is a card carrying member of PDP. What about Abati that collected #200 Million.

At the rate Tinubu is attacking and blackmailing everyone, he will surely lose woefully next year. Anyone who reads this rebuttal will know that Tinubu is just an arrogant and self entitled rogue who feels he is bigger than everyone else.

Let's see how far his arrogance and bullying will take him.

Frigging BATstard, it's simple present your candidate for media scrutiny not the prearranged propagandistic interviews you guys conduct. Thief-nubu is criminal and a druggie same with those who support him and he's no hero whatsoever or bigger than the Nigerian people. Thief-nubu has stolen from Lagos more than any man dead or alive and you term him a hero of democracy. To all BATstards make thunder kill you all for trying to enable godfatherim, corruption, bad leadership, bigotry, hate and disunity in Nigeria

This Obiagena or whatever his name is, is full of himself and a name dropper. His media house is built on corruption, stolen money from our collective Nigerian purse. His so called journalist are envelope collectors and not trained at all. His entire media house is for the highest bidder and the staff disgusting as journalist are money collectors and that’s how you get into his newspaper or tv.

I won’t even send my dog to attend or be part of any program on his TV

Whoever give life to the bully and intimidation that Tinubu and his handlers are doing is an enemy of this nation.
They have not become president yet but no one can challenge them, but bullying people and intimidate them, but I know no one will be intimidated to submission with all their high-handedness and bully tactics.
Tinubu and his handlers need to come down from their high horses and know they are not bigger than 200m Nigerians. It was the same tactics they deployed in 2015 and it worked perfectly for them but this time around Nigerians can be cowed, the media have constitutional duty to hold accountable government and those that wish to lead for the overall benefit of the country, as media practitioners as the people representatives.

oga, for the last time. Let's not go down this road because you've clearly not researched this case and you clearly didn't read the article besides if you're talking about corruption, bear in mind that those who live in glass houses don't throw stones. Leave this matter, he has repaid the 500m

"...Clarifying on the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) and the Newspaper Proprietors Association of Nigeria (NPAN) refund, Obaigbena explained that the anti-graft body invited him and Executives of other national newspapers to clarify payments made to NPAN, when he was president at the time.

He revealed that the executives of all other newspapers involved (The Nation owned by Bola Tinubu inclusive), were also invited at the time to clarify the payments they received.

He stressed that he was not detained as he signed no bail bond, “and indeed has never been detained by the EFCC or the police in any criminal case, contrary to the fake news of Bayo Onanuga and Dele Alake.”..."

Simple as that!

Instead of the empty brain Pablo Escobar Thiefnubbu running from the media while claiming to have solutions to all of Nigerias problems,he should present himself like all other candidates.

We have been through that with El Dunce Buhari and can’t afford another King and dictator of Nigeria who will just be there occupying space without doing any job.

Present yourself now.

People of low mentality always see everything through tribal lens. It's even funny that guy didn't really say anything about tribe yet you jumped in to say that Nduka who is from Delta North, is not Igbo.
