If the man whose picture you used to commit libel against another contracts me, I will promptly track you down, so you can be legally held accountable for your criminal behavior in a court of law.

Very unfortunate for a Christian presidential candidate like obi to engage himself in bribing a whole CAN for endorsement

What was the reason Tinubu felt the need to manufacture fake bishops?.

FreeStuffsNG:
We both know it is a lie that that is a mini crowd of traders

In that mini crowd are buyers who got trapped in the improptu market campaign even though they are not voting for Mr Obi or supporting him/lp.

They are victims of the dictatorship imposed on them by lp supporters acting uncivilised by not giving them advance notice that they will be trapped in that market so they can visit another market to buy their needs.

This is why LASG need to sanction the market leaders for the huge discomfort they caused the other users of the market.

This act of impunity is a cunny attempt by lp to cheat, shift from their infamous white canopies they use to cover large empty spaces at their poorly attended campaigns to now forcing innocent people trapped in markets to generate s false optics as if their campaign is real. It is a fraudulent way to decieve the less discerning just like their fraudulent pre election online 'poll'.

When lp fixed campaign in tbs, it was a colossal flop!

Guy, do make you go check your BP, abeg. We still care about you as a citizen under Peter Obi and Datti Baba-Ahmed's presidency.

CoronaVirusRelo:
Another malnourished set of people!

Why are Peters supporters always looking hungry!

Peter should be feeding them before the long walk in harsh weather.

They look hungry because they are. Impoverished by Tinubu's APC they are now determined to dethrone by electing a man who will take care of all Nigerians without regards to their class, tribe, religion, or gender.

Thinkam:
The media didn't include in their reports, that Obansanjo and afenifere accompanied the ooni and other Yoruba elders, to visit the sultan for tinubu.

What's this level of betrayal

Obi has been scammed repeatedly, I hope he'll be satisfied with 20k votes from the southwest.

Igbos wise up, let's be Atikulated for a better Nigeria!

Pictures incoming.

Why don't you not compliment the incompetent media and provide us your imaginary pictures?

SLAP44:
I will personally fight anyone in Labour Party if an Edo man doesn't get the SGF position. They deserve more than that.

I concur.

Here's what a Nigerian soldier of northern origin, who served in Anambra State said about Mr. Peter Obi:

BlessedOne01:
Look at the nonsense you are writing about your fellow man!

Tomorrow, when you are struck with a "strange illness", you would come to Nairaland to cry for help!

I don't know your age and I DON'T care to know but mind you, whatever you sow in life is what you reap!

Keep laughing at someone's old age like you don't have "old parents"......... yours is coming!

Can you explain why an old man, as you put it, wants to ruin the lives of 120 million people on account of his selfish, unattainable wish to be called Mr. President?

Plateau is deep inside LP bag, also Benue. This is what it fortunately is.

Igbo:
Since people in IDP camp will vote Ibos should also be given the opportunity too

Excellent thinking. And while we're at it, we may also want to consider extending the same opportunity to the multitude of Yoruba criminals languishing in the UK and US penitentiaries for human trafficking, fraud, and drugs trafficking.

2023Plan:
If he wins, I would relocate and renounce my citizenship

Relax broda, when we never begin mad.
Tinubu cannot win the governorship election in his Osun home state today.

Penguin2:
The song is taking the North by storm only in the imagination of Tinubu BATstards who always claim to know what’s going on all over the country from their huts in Ogbomoso.

Tinubu ma lule!

Ndi ala!

Ireportlive:



Omo ale Le leyi oo.... Oloriburuku ma Shan Fani

Most of you obsessed on Yoruba no fit make am and would end badly. Ask your ancestors

Someone without glory hating a leader


.

Why don't you simply respond to the man's submission instead of attacking him, namely:

1. Was Gbajabiamila jailed in the United States for fraud?.
2. Was Tinubu not proven guilty of drug dealing?.
3. Was Dapo Abiodun not convicted and jailed for fraud in the United States?.
4. was Oyetola not indicted in the Pandora paper alongside Tinubu for laundering monies and fraudulent property ownership?


Are these are the kind of people that you Yorubas glorify and call leaders?. You defend them tooth and nail.
He also posited that Tinubu is a running a (sic) cartel of staunch criminals with proven records of that (sic) criminality.

Address this abeg.

VoidLife7:
Good day all,


Please i need your sincere input to this subject matter


I am from an average family of 6 living in Lagos. My father is a surveyor, while my mother a petty trader. My mother lost his younger brother's wife after child birth, through cesarian surgery.. My mum was the only female amongst 4 siblings, she was beseeched to look after the infant and her little brother. That was how my parents began nurturing these kids. I could recall vividly how my dad often supply the house with baby food so she could be properly fed. I saw how my dad and mum took turns at mid night looking after her. My dad lost his only sister four years after and he was given the responsibility to look after her last baby who was almost 2 years. I lost my dad 2015 when the little girl was 10, her brother 12 and the other child was just 8. My mum had 4 biological kids, 3 boys and a girl. The girl was the first child, happily married with kids. I have an elder brother and a younger brother. I was intermediate my brothers. Till date, these children acknowledged my parents as their biological parents. They never knew we aren't blood from same parents. We all had same surname. The little girl wrote her WAEC last year and cleared all her papers with distinctions and credit. She had the intention to study law or foreign languages.


I enrolled her in fashion designing immediately after her secondary school, as she had shown interest. It's less than a year she got enrolled and she's already sewing styles. She's heading to become a seamstress in the not too distant future. She also makes hair. Though not professional and she never learnt it.


My mum summoned me last month informing me she'd be giving my little sister out for marriage once she clocks 18 by May this year. She claimed i had been teaching in private school earning 30k monthly and my elder brother working in a factory earning 35k. We got bills to pay for ourselves and the kids. She asserted that the burden is already taken a toll on us. I and my elder brother are the ones supporting the family with accommodation, feeding, school fees et al. My mum claimed there was no money to pursue her education. We couldn't even afford to get her a sewing machine. The little girl suggested she get enlisted into the Nigeria navy or Immigration Service with her WAEC result, and also as a fashion designer. Perhaps, that could enable her pursue her law degree in subsequent time as an officer. My mum wasn't convince with her idea. She claimed there was no one to help her get enlisted successfully. She insisted in giving her out to a 43 years old divorces whose wife had abandoned with 3 kids. My mum was so ignorance enough to believed giving her out for marriage will help lessen our burden😭


I felt like giving my mum good hot slap having realised the reason i got summoned. I felt the burden is really weighing her down, making her think otherwise. I had kept my mum at arm length since then. Hopefully, that'd propel her have a change of mind. I sincerely got her plight though but that shouldn't be an option. She seems not to understand her decision would destroy the girl's life completely. She claimed it wasn't her fault. She sincerely wish we are capable of looking after the children, then she'd support her dreams and aspirations. She believed when there's no money, you shouldn't be found discussing anything that requires money. I've been so down ever since then. She claimed i i hadn't saved myself yet and i was worried saving someone else. She's my sister and i can't leave her behind. She never treated her badly for a day though and nobody knows she wasn't her biological child. If for instance, anyone come up tomorrow informing her or her siblings that my parents aren't their biological parents, they'd never pay attention to it. I was even threatening to report her to the family but she claimed the family can't do nothing. This little girl has good plans, dreams and aspirations but my mum wants to cut it short and shattered due to our challenges.


Please i need advice going forward. I really want to keep my family together🙏❤

Your sister is an individual with rights. It is her life, therefore can and should decide her future for herself.

Your mother has no right to arrogate to herself, the powers to marry away another individual against their will.

This is so 1920.... Stand your ground, and do the best you can for the young lady.

It is election season, the last push is on, and we are witnessing an uncomfortable quietness at the terror front lines. Welcome as that is, how long is it for?.

Didn't Ali Modu Sheriff tell us that Shettima is Boko Haram's progenitor. Boko Haram is quiet at the moment, did Shettima speak to them in the kanuri language they understand?.

Fulani herdsmen and their Bandits terror comrades appears to be on a hiatus, what did El-Rufai tell them this time?. Did a couple of Tinubu's bullion vans miss their way into the forests of the north?. Who was the navigator, Gumi?.

It is slowly becoming clearer who have been terrorizing Nigerians and why.

Mfetenang:
And why is a Biafran so concerned about Nigerian issues or who becomes the president of Nigeria?
Abeg,worry about your president Simon Ekpa, leave Nigerian matter for Nigerians.
You have no stake or rights in this country because we will always regard you as a second class citizen.

You need to quit disgracing your poor, long-suffering parents on the internet. And, you are a Nigeria in your estimation, while your people are still refugees across the border in Benin Republic. A quick visit to the neighborhood abortion chemist would've saved the world a disgrace like you.

Doctors at the Walter Reed Memorial hospital have just certified President Joe Biden as "Healthy" and "Vigorous". This sets the grounds for his expected second-term bid for the US president.

When can we expect such transparency in the health status of our public officeholders?. Biden is 80, healthy, sane, and vigorous while a supposedly 70 years old Ahmed Tinubu is visibly physically and mentally vegetable.

2023 Elections: Peter Obi maintains lead amongst Presidential Poll Respondents
15 February, 2023

Ahead of the forthcoming 2023 Nigerian Presidential elections, a third and final nationwide opinion poll was commissioned by Anap Foundation and conducted by NOI Polls Limited (NOIPolls). This third Poll in the series was concluded in the first half of February 2023 and follows two earlier Polls carried out (using the exact same methodology) in September and December 2022. We believe our baseline Presidential Poll published on 15 September, 2022 was the first well-publicised national poll released in connection with the 2023 Presidential elections, which was followed by a Bloomberg poll published on 28 September, 2022.
For the avoidance of doubt, it is pertinent to mention that the methodology used by NOIPolls is almost the exact same methodology that was used in previous Presidential Polls that they handled for us in 2011, 2015 and 2019. In all those past Presidential Polls, the front-runner that was identified by our Polls ended up winning the elections, irrespective of a rather large percentage of voters who were Undecided and/or Refused to indicate who their preferred candidate was. We have also applied the exact same methodology in our various Governorship Polls carried out in 2011, 2014, 2015, 2019 and 2022 and the methodology generally held up well. We are of course aware of some significant differences between the 2023 Presidential race and those of prior years e.g. 1) A longer Campaign season: 2) the presence of 4 major candidates instead of 2; and 3) greater voter enthusiasm.

In December 2022, we took the extra step to expand the methodology in our 2nd Presidential Poll in this series by carrying out 3 different polls using sample sizes of 1,000, 2,000 and 3,000 and confirmed that (as expected) the results did not change significantly. This notwithstanding, we chose a sample size of 2,000 for our third and final poll in February 2023 as opposed to the 1,000 sample size we used for the published September and December 2022 poll.

Our 3rd and Final Poll result in February, 2023 reveals that Mr. Peter Obi of the Labour Party (LP) remains in the lead, with Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and Alhaji Atiku Abubakar of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) both trailing him. Dr. Rabiu Kwankwaso of the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP) emerged as the lone outsider. Mr. Peter Obi leads, with 21% of registered voters proposing to vote for him if the presidential election were to be conducted today; and 13% proposing to vote for Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu who fell in second place. Alhaji Atiku Abubakar was third with 10% and Dr. Rabiu Kwankwaso was a distant fourth with 3% of voters proposing to vote for him.

Given the large pool of Undecided Voters and/or those who Refused to disclose their preferred choice, Mr. Peter Obi’s 8%-point lead at this stage is significant, but not sufficient to separate him from a leading pack of candidates scoring 13%, 10% and 3%. Undecided voters and those who prefer not to reveal their preferred candidate add up to a whopping 23% and 30% respectively. The gender split of undecided voters shows that 27% of women are undecided versus 18% of male registered voters.

The percentage of registered voters and/or voters with their Permanent Voter’s Card (PVC) is as follows in each of the zones - 96% in the North East, 93% each in the North West and South East. Slightly lower voter registration percentages were recorded in the North Central with 92%, South West with 89% and the South South with 88%. Accordingly, maximum voter participation across the 6 Geopolitical Zones, now range within a narrow band of 88-96%. This differs significantly from what obtained in 2015 where maximum voter participation was highest in the North West Zone at 80% and lowest in the South South Zone at only 60%.

The table above captures the overall position of the four (4) leading Presidential candidates by aggregating and weighing their scores in proportion to population totals across Nigeria based on the findings of our September 2022, December 2022 and February 2023 polls. In comparison to previous polls, the percentage of undecided and refused voters increased significantly from 38% in 2019 to 53% as at the time of this poll showing that a host of voters are either still seated on the fence, barely 14 days to the general elections or are refusing to disclose their preferences. Our agreed methodology does NOT allow NOIPolls staff to attempt to cajole unresponsive voters into making a choice on the phone because we believe that violates the rights of a voter.

When asked if religion would affect the choice of respondents, data gathered voluntarily showed that 9% of the respondents replied in the affirmative to religion influencing their choice of candidates but 87% on the other hand, responded that their choices were not being influenced by religion; in the same vein, 7% responded in the affirmative to ethnicity affecting their choice of candidates while 89% responded that their choices were not influenced by ethnicity.

Furthermore, the data summarizes the top five reasons why voters are more inclined to vote in the forthcoming elections, as follows: - The need to tackle insecurity (36%), Inflation (26%), Unemployment (11%), Poverty alleviation (6%) and Education (5%).

It is worthy of note that 81% of those aged 18-25, 83% of those aged 26-35, 85% of those aged 36-45, 89% of those aged 46-60 and 81% of those aged 61+ responded that they would definitely vote in the coming elections. The age groups that expressed the greatest willingness to vote were those between 36-45 and 46-60 years.

The Poll shows that almost 9 in 10 registered voters (the highest we have recorded since we started gathering this data) now say that they are absolutely certain that they would be voting in the 2023 presidential election as compared to 8 in 10 registered voters in 2019. If they stay committed over the course of the next fortnight and, in the absence of aggravated security concerns or unresolved PVC collection challenges, we could witness a huge turnout in the February 2023 Presidential elections.

While this Poll result shows some very significant trends, it is key to note that the eventual outcome lies in the hands of the voters who are Undecided and/or Refused to disclose the identity of their preferred candidate, as they could ultimately decide which candidate takes the overall lead to emerge as the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria in the 2023 Presidential elections.

The high percentage of voters (38%) who refused to disclose their preferred candidate in the South West Zone is worrisome. For other zones, those who refused to disclose their preferred candidate ranged from 18-36%. At 38%, the South West figure is an outlier. Historically, an exceedingly high percentage of voters refusing to disclose their preferred candidate has usually been associated with perceptions/fears (real or imagined) of possible voter intimidation within a geographical area. Other possibilities abound e.g. voters not wanting to reveal that they appear to be voting on the basis of ethnicity and/or religion, or voters not being comfortable disclosing on the phone that they wish to vote for a candidate other than the one from their own ethnic and/or religious grouping. We are also aware of the pressures that come from voters seeking to appear trendy and multiple other factors at play.

Our conclusion is that, using our tried and tested method of sampling since 2011, the 2023 Presidential Elections are too close to call, notwithstanding the fact that, whoever was at the top of the polls based on this exact same methodology in 2011, 2015 and 2019 eventually won the elections. This time Mr. Peter Obi has been the front-runner throughout, but we caution that the Undecided/Refused vote is still too high (in early February 2023) to be ignored. We had thought that by delaying our 3rd and Final Poll until early February 2023 we would see a collapse of the Undecided Vote. The reality is that the reduction in the Undecided Vote has been more than offset by the increase in the number of voters who refuse to disclose the name of their preferred candidate. When we carried out our first and baseline poll in September 2022 we thought a long campaign period would lead to different candidates taking turns to lead the field. That has not been the case. This long drawn out race has been surprisingly stagnant.

Tinubu's newspaper again. Una no dey tire?.

Anyways, we go deport that Ghanian monkey pastor back to his village in Ghana on may 30th.

lhordspy:
He is not an orator or smooth talker like Yemi osinbajo or Barrack Obama. But he is intelligent

But una come still dey fear say him go always talk nonsense in an unscripted situation. Rightly so too.

oyin44:
So why are you doubting tinubu 's chance in imo state.

Dem go chop his mobilization fee still vote for Obi

Said Dr Okurounmu: “Tinubu has become a problem to everybody. He has no genuine interest for the Yoruba people. Voting for him will plunge Yoruba in second slavery. He is even making frantic efforts to divide Afenifere.

“When the armed herdsmen were killing our people in their farmlands and in their villages, Tinubu did not say a word. When ENDSARS protesters were at Lekki and they brought soldiers who mercilessly killed our youths, Tinubu did not say a word. When Yorubas were complaining about insecurity and killings and Igboho came up in defence of his people, Tinubu kept silence.

“Tinubu is the reason why there is no Amotekun in Lagos presently like other Yoruba states.

My dear Yoruba people and fellow Nigerians, what else do we need to be told?.
As our lord said at the last hour, it is finished. Tinubu is evidently finished.

Vote PO for president 2023

Unserious clownish Party ... AAC and KOWA party weren't this disorganized

Common Party Agent they don't have

No worries. The clownish party go still rule over your house this 2023 .

Who else thinks this failure's mouthpiece orifice oephius should be banned from Nairaland? .

His offense is bearing false and malicious propaganda as a paid agent in direct detriment to the welfare of Enugu people.

The man whose dwarf image he launders, is an 8 years colossal disaster. A wicked, cunning, slowpoke in the mold of Tinubu.
