Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu is the next president of Nigeria. Jagaban is the best man for the job. The incoming president of Nigeria. May God bless him with wisdom to lead the country to the promised land. May he have the courage to usher in peace progress and prosperity. Congratulations in advance

When delivering his remark at the dinner organized in honor of Bola Ahmed Tinubu, the presidential candidate of APC, Governor Ganduje told the attendees that the dinner was an endorsement of Tinubu candidacy. This was responded to by everybody in the hall with a loud round of applause.

Nobody needs your warning OSU,just bring your "Yugoslavia scenario" ! For your info,any wrong move by you idiotic,senseless Igbo in any part of Yoruba land will quickly result into regrettable calamities for you fools ! Your excesses will no longer be tolerated in any part of Yoruba land going forward. This has nothing to do with Tinubu or the forthcoming general election; it's all about your toxic,acidic attitude and the nark for running your smelly faecal oha eating mouths anyhow ! Trust me,we (Yoruba ) have resolved to put you in your place or send you back to your dirty erosion ravaged land of criminals ! E no go better for all of una if you don't bring that Yugoslavia scenario nonsense on !

that picture below,is anyone as fine as her in your village? picture let me see.

Even if you want to hype him must you now throw jab at the other candidate's son. Seyi Tinubu is also a successful entrepreneur himself so what's the point? You people are just bleeding Obi of his votes in other regions because of your hate. Even those that would want to vote Obi wouldn't do so again because of you people. You are all full of bile and venom. Obi would lose this election not because he's not the most popular but because of you people.

lhordspy:
Yes he did. Good or Bad. He will always be remembered. There are Billions of people that did it differently,in a supposedly good way. There name,struggle and achievement died with them.

Nazism can still be traced to many countries. People still believe in it, and believe in him.

The people can only judge, your believe is yours. And yours only even though others share the same.

Jones4190:
let us not forget that Yusuf Datti Baba-Ahmed, peter obi running mate is not Nigerian, his parents are from arab, his father, Baba Ahmed, was an Arab cattle-trader from modern-day Mauritania. funny enough, the obituary that change buhari name to jubril are quiet.

you can go and verify

lhordspy:
Fanatic? It pleases me to hear people call me that.

If choosing competence over blind hatred,envy and religious partitioning. And also refusing to cower,bend or get swayed in the face of bullies who will rather insult, abuse, attack my ideology, political affliations and interest instead of chasing the daunting task of wooing me convincingly to theirs, makes me an extremist.

Then i rather wallow in my own sheer ecstacy of the alleged political ignorance than engage in politics of hypocrisy, religious segregation, deceit, and duplicity.
Brother, you see; when one is devoted to his/her own ignorance, it isnt fanatism anymore, it is called believe.

And it will always look unappealing to you so far Obi is not projected to be winning.

lhordspy:
Fair assumptions.

Except the Taraba, jigawa and Adamawa.

PDP will win taraba for sure. But you giving Kwankwaso 15% is over-rating. Kwankwaso has little to few followers in taraba. I think we should be having Atiku 50% , Tinubu 30% , Obi 15% , Kwankwaso 5%

Then in adamawa the percentage spacing between the candidate is unreaslistic. Atiku will win the state for sure too. But not on 60-20 scale.
Atiku will have 50% , Tinubu(taking in consideration the in fighting between the Aisha buhari influenced camp vs Nuhu ribadu, but Tinubu will still manage 35% , kwankwso will take 10%, then other parties 5% - Labour party is non-existence there too.

Jigawa will be tight. I think a winner will only emerge here depending on where kwankwanso eventually swings. The thing is kwankwaso may even win the state. Very possible.
But as it stands now. Tinubu 45, kwankwaso 35, Atiku 28% ... Other parties 2% ... labour party is non existence here too, the 2% will be shared between Al-mustapha and other small parties will Northern candidate.

Tzar:
You CANNOT compel me to vote for your THIEF either.
Please ref this PANDORA files on OBI https://www.premiumtimesng.com/news/headlines/487997-pandora-papers-inside-peter-obis-secret-businesses-and-how-he-broke-the-law.html

Unlike your OBI, please show proof of these your claims on TINUBU, if you can't, please CONTINUE TO BE IN PAINS!

I did not want to vote Tinubu because of Ambode and Osinbajo, but people like you make me ddecide to vote him just to make a point. Because, your OBI is not any better than Tinubu anyway... Tinubu is even better?
FYI, Obi killed and dumped Igbos in a river, prevented opposition from campaigning, under-developed Anambra, stole and invested Anambra money for personal gains, lies and cooks up fake data, belong to a cult group, OBI has uncivilized followers, OBI is a propagandist..... The list is endless

BreconHills:
Thank your for your comments. As you might deduce, i am yoruba and possibly one of the older ( not necessarily wiser) members of this foreign. My first election as an adult was the 78-79 elecyion when i was 18/19. I have seen a lot of elections and I have my own idea of the way Nigeria is ultimately headed. The pathway for Nigeria is very narrow and if anything very fragile.

Unfortunately politics is a dirty game played by dirty players. I have no illusions about what the candidates and their supporters are capable of doing. For many supporters this is an emotional exercise in which a personal sense of safety and fear in equal proportion render logic impossible

However, I am a strong believer in regional government. I do not buy into the idea of Nigeria in its current form. I also believe that the aim of yorubas is regional government. The framework is in place with DAWN. Irrespective of which party the governors belong to, it is an ideal that all yorubas subscribe to. I like the non threatening way and the incremental nature of the steps towards federal deceleration being put forward in Bola Tinubu's manifesto. This is the only way to loosen the stranglehold of the centre - fiscal decoupling.

This being the case realpolitik calls on people like myself to consider which candidate opens the most realistic pathway for the advancement of this objective. In my opinion that candidate is Bola Tinubu. I do not base this on the superiority of his candidature only on the arch of history which in my opinion he is himself powerless to resist.

I do not believe that with the current structure of the economy, there is any room for a four year period of exposes and grandstanding. I know that many Nigerian people would love a season of score settlement and blood letting - it will serve no purpose. I believe we need someone who knows where the bodies are buried. I do not think we need a puritanic leader at this stage. Even if we need to hold our noses, we need someone who will weaken the unitary system by coopting the vested interests that have decimated this country. Those forces cannot be taken on directly and yet they cannot be submitted to.

This is why when I consider Atiku and Obi I see two men on extreme opposite mountains who will fail to address the flawed unitary nature of Nigeria - not because they do not understand the need to do so but because in one case there is no desire to do so and in the other, the lack of a national base to do so.

As you can see, I have thought this out and I am afraid we will have to agree to disagree.

Tzar:
You see your folly?
When Obi gets a crowd, it is NIGERIANS (even when the crowd is 90% Igbos).
But when Tinubu gets a crowd, it is YORUBAS ONLY?
We will show you people pepper. Una never see anything! I didn’t want to vote before , but with the way you OBI people have directed this elections, I am going to vote TINUBU for sure! It has become personal, especially in my LAGOS!

BreconHills:
I think you should have just left it at Tinubu supporters. No need to add "yorubas" "Tinubu supporters in the SW" would do nicely.

And by the way my first call was Osinbajo but that not having happened, I plumbed for someone who wouldn't spend his first time floundering around. If there were stronger and more credible candidates against Tinubu I would consider them.

Excerpts

When Obi ran for governor of Anambra State, he pledged that he would so improve the education in the state that his children would return from the UK to attend Anambra schools. Well, his children not only still live abroad and never went to school in Nigeria, they’re citizens of a foreign country.

As I pointed out when Obi released his presidential campaign list that was riddled with avoidable duplications and omissions, a man who couldn’t be bothered to even look at the list of his campaign council members—or, if he did, didn’t know enough to know people who should be in it—won’t be any different from the people we have had in the past.

The attributes people venerate in him were also projected onto Buhari in 2014/2015. One of my Obi-supporting friends said Obi “Not being greedy or avaricious on issues of money, not being flamboyant by living like a king while millions wallow in poverty, being able to save, being accessible to the people, listening to the people, etc.” are the proofs we need to know that he will be different as a president.

people said exactly the same of Buhari. But see what he became. Being in power is different from seeking power. Attributes such as access, empathy, etc. often disappear as sure as tomorrow’s date when people get to power. I am friends with a man who used to be close to Buhari because he used to tell him uncomfortable but helpful truths. The man’s relationship with Buhari endured only a few months after Buhari became president.

Like Buhari, Obi is popular with a core demographic that is animated by religious and ethnic politics. On ethnic and religious tolerance, his record isn’t different from Buhari’s, according to media reports I’ve read. He called Ngige a Yoruba man in 2013, implying that it’s undesirable to be Yoruba. In 2013, when Idemili women protested after being disenfranchised, Obi said the women were from Osun State in order to delegitimize them.

Obi’s ethnic politics as a governor was so acute that Okey Ndibe called him out on it in several columns, saying in one column 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.”

On the issues that really matter, Obi is no different from any politician. It’s people on social media who created this image of Obi as some transformational person when he is just a business-as-usual politician like everybody else.

This is a man whose aide was caught with N250 million cash in 2009 in his lodge when he was a governor. A former banker and a governor holding that much cash is suspicious. His record in human rights isn’t any different from other governors. The Daily Champion of June 20, 2006 reported him as ordering the police to “shoot on sight hoodlums caught perpetrating violence in the city.” What happened to fair trial?

And he lies a lot—like other politicians. He claims he never borrowed as a governor and that he left a surplus when he left office as a governor. Records at the Debt Management Office don’t support this. Anambra’s External Debt was $15 million by December 2007. At the time Obi left office in June 2014, the state’s external debt climbed up to an astronomical $41 million. That’s a 173 percent jump!

And, like other politicians, he is corrupt, too. He invested Anambra state’s money in his family business.

Yet when you point out that he is just as human and as flawed as most politicians, his supporters threaten people with death and coarse invective, like Buharists did—and still do. Critical democratic citizenship isn’t allowed where he is involved.

So, “Obi-dients” are the new Buharists. Better get ready for their rank stupidity and pigheadedness should Peter Obi become president. They’re perpetually angry. They’re narrowminded, verbally primitive, ignorant, tunnel-visioned automatons who think their illiterate trolling can stop people from expressing views that are contrary to theirs.

They constitute a risible horde of unthinking troll brigade on the Internet and are incapable of the most basic level of cognitive complexity. If you’re not one of them, you are against them. If you don’t sacrifice your critical faculty on the altar of Peter Obi political idolatry, you’re against their idol.

If you write any favorable article about Obi, you’re an unflinching patriot, but if you do the same for Obi’s opponents, you’re a paid supporter of their idol’s opponents. They live in a world of Manichean binaries. Nuance is a strange concept to them.

If Satan were to magically emerge today and endorse Obi, they’ll sanctify Satan as Angel Gabriel and sing his praises. They’re that stupid.

They deserve their name. Obedience, after which “Obidience” is modeled, means a dutiful surrender of one’s critical senses to someone in authority, and that’s what Obidients do every waking moment of their miserable lives since they caught the bug of Obimania.

Arutan:
It shows that you guys are only out to ridicule and subjugate the yoruba race and it’s people. You bribe afenifere to endorse the ethiopian enoch speaking man called Obi yet you don’t want Tinubu’s people to support their own. You must be a joker. Yorubas already decided the depth of the hatred you have for Tinubu and they won’t allow it to fester further. When your own supported Obi no one derided it now Tinubu’s own are supporting him you started spewing trash. The race has begun and let’s see how it will end.
