Ajixegun:
Was he long among those who brought insecurity to the country inorder to oust president Jonathan? El-rufai is an hypocrite and people praising him are deluded.

Yes him,Tinubu and Buhari...Now they're in charge, yet things have gotten worse.

mightyhazel:
You try .. but u say na guess... Anyways writernigr dey use him biro now.wen he don write nazi and NATO and shares finish

Likely English—it’s the only common second language among them.
Modi speaks English; Putin can converse in English; Xi is understood to know some English but usually opts to use an interpreter in formal settings, so truly interpreter-free talks are uncommon.

He is saying this because he is not part of them.
Although he is saying the truth.

How this Ridabu turned rogue is one of the wonders of Nigeria.
Well, you can't accept to work under the administration of a rogue and not be like him.

I believe from where Peter the Rock stands he sees Adeyanju as a riffraff that he doesn't wana go that lane with.
The riffraff himself just wants to be more popular so he expects Obi to sue he would later start his usual apology.
Adeyanju is one of the agents of the state for distraction.

simpleseyi:
How many Yorubas do you see slaving in Igbo land? Very few

Slaving?...
Or Making ends meet?
When your so called slave has become a landlord home and abroad and you a tenant home and abroad.
Shame to you the envious one.

IBB007:
Lol…the pictures of those smart schools that I saw really fell my hand…my expectations were up but what I saw was so disappointing…most government schools in Lagos state are way better than that

Are you from Lagos State...Or they buried your placenta there?...

419 disbursement

Zanzibar1:
Wasn't it Abaribe that was picked up by the security agencies for funding the proscribed terrorist group?
Same person who stood for Nnamdi Kanu bail

Offcourse he was accused by a Terrorist Party/Government.
Even Canada never declared Ipob a terrorist group but they APC/PDP a terrorist group.

SmallmebigGod:
Most marketable is Soludo.

He has the CV and has maintained a pan-Nigeria political associations.

There is charisma too.

Anyway any day he critises Tinubu,he stops being a 🌴 Nigerian.He will automatically become a 🥭 Nigerian or Igbo Nigerian.

Ttalk:
Ngozi okonjo Iweala
Soludo
Umahi
Bianca

These are the only marketable Igbo that can win election in Nigeria presently.

Count Peter Obi out of it because of his divisive and ethnoreligious campaign couple with his abysmal performance as governor.

Obi can only remain a presidential candidate,he can't be. President

You mean the APC criminal associates from the SE with the exception of Daa Ngozi

Softmirror:
You don't depend on politics but you are running a movement against rigging. lol 😂 😂😂😂😂.

Obedient movement is not Igbo movement unless you wanna tell me only Igbos desires a fraud free election.
...and you are against such a movement?
Tell me why of if not the fact that you fear that such noble call will affect the fraud you call a brother.

Softmirror:
Why then do you cry all the time when appointments are made and you don't find your people?!😁

I don't cry and I know majority of Igbos don't cry about government appointments that only favours the elites because we don't really see it as a form of development like the WASTE who depend on politics for survival and bragging rights.
It is the political class that kill themselves over appointments.
The difference between us is the majority Igbos want a working Nigeria while the majority of your people wants a working yoruba against the Igbos.

Softmirror:
All I know is that the rigging and intimidation that happened in the South East will not repeat itself again. Boots will be on the ground to allow people vote for candidates of their choice.

South East or Nigeria as a whole?
As for SE you know the truth, we made it that clear we didn't want and still don't want a kleptocratic government. Nobody forced anybody against their wishes.Just few party men plus the few people they bribed voted for the klepto in Aso.

akpumping7720:
2027 will be one of the funniest and dea.dliest election in Nigeria. We are waiting for you. That Obi you want to put in power by force will be disgraced.

The same man that couldn't turn tiny Anambra to a more developed state is what you want to force down our throat. We are waiting.

To stop or reduce rigging means putting Obi in power.
Later if we say Obi clearly won the last presidential election you bigots will start foaming through your mouths.

aswani:
Cynthia Okeke, who clearly rigged for LP in the last elections, wouldn't like this.

Yes. The aim is to stop rigging anywhere,East,North,South and West not this tribal card you retrogressives are are always playing.

What has Tinubu gained?
Bwala is just a hungry man looking for bread crumbs.

WizardOfNG:
It is either ethno-religious prejudice against PBAT or lack of knowledge of the most debilitating problems of Nigeria, and the solutions required for them, that makes you incapable of seeing what Tinubu "has done" to more than deserve a second and even third term.

As an empathetic person, I will not pretend things are not tough for ordinary Nigerians. Yet I have seen enough of the world to know how Nigerians should be living which is a million times better than how they have lived since our current democracy began in 1999.

To get ordinary Nigerians even remotely close to the standard of life some African nations are enjoying there has to be fundamental changes, needing reforms and drastic overhaul of governance policies, that will cause some suffering initially but will lead to much better lives and prospect for Nigerians in the near future.

Virtually all nations have gone through the same "sacrifice for better future" phase with many enduring hardship for decades even.

The life you people are asking Nigerians to return to, propped up by subsidies at all levels that only get a people addicted to poverty and comfortable recieving 1% from greedy and callous leaders when they need at least 80%, is not life as the world knows it.

It is not living. At all. It is merely surviving for a people weaponised poverty, through use of various government-funded subsidies, has been used to trick into thinking they ever had good lives to begin with.

Wake up. You are educated. All you had was cheap fuel with horribly inadequate transport option. Whereas many nations in the west have expensive fuel but superb and comfortable transport options available to their people courtesy of doing the right things.

While efficient transport options help those nations grow socio-economically, you in Nigerian, drunk on cheap fuel, sit in traffic for hours, courtesy of poor transport infrastructure and options, that is damaging to our economy's productivity and the ease/efficiency of doing business

You had cheap electricity bill, with many not paying anything at all, that means Nigeria will remain in darkness forever if such continues because not paying enough to re-invest successfully in the very expensive business of power generation, transmission and distribution only guarantees darkness.

Previous government have been sloppy and even disinterested in efficient tax collection. Yet you all want to japa to nation where efficient tax collection, from all those who can afford to pay such, builds world class infrastructure and social services like health care and social intervention with the UK NHS and benefit system being good examples to cite.

Your past Presidents subsidized the value of Naira artificially rather than subject it to gaining it's real comparative value that must only be improved organically via Nigeria working on a strong economy that would give Naira it real purchasing power parity strength which is what is ultimately important for national currencies.

Yet you cannot see that wholesale subsidising of the Naira, that Tinubu decided had to be stopped, mainly benefited Northern bureau de change owners, and their politico-elite bosses gaining massively while all Nigerians with legitimate business, leisure or educational interest abroad could not even get pounds, dollars etal via our official banking system.


Please what sort of nation is that when I cannot buy dollars and pounds comfortably to visit a foreign nation on holiday, when I work hard in Nigeria to deserve it, whereas if I was in the UK and looking to go on holiday to Ibiza I would only need to stroll into any high street bureau de change to buy Euros at a rate that will not be ridiculously different to the British central Bank quoted rate

I could go on all day. Suffice to say they were using you own commonwealth to keep you subdued, with various feel-good subsidies that allowed the politico-elite class to loot mercilessly, live billionaire lifestyle, while Nigerians get crumbs.

I can agree that many ordinary and uneducated Nigerians, facing severe daily challenges, won't get all I have stated above because weaponised poverty has been used to keep them less educated, less knowledgeable, less exposed, less politically sophisticated and less discerning than they need to be.

I concede it is totally understandable they may be mad with the government of PBAT from the limited view of the picture they see.

Yet, what is the excuse of educated people like you who can inspect what I wrote above to verify it as factually correct so that you can see that it is Presidents before Tinubu who actually (1) did not mean well for you or (2) lacked the balls to do what will be in the best medium to long term interest of all Nigerians.

Previous government were simply just 419ing a people they believed they have conquered with weaponised poverty akin to stuffing the mouth of a baby with a dummy to stop it crying.

It is only Tinubu, from all Presidents since 1999, that is addressing the real problems of the baby crying non-stop rather than attempting to distract it with gimmicks and insincere gestures disguised as acts of kindness.

...But the same Tinubu your brother, staged a protest against subsidy removal some years ago.
How come a rogue who spends like a thief is preferred to champion that course if not bigotry.

Ritchiee:
Why would Yorubas hate Igbos when you are our kith and kin in the South.
Yorubas have always.. and still do...stuck their necks out for the Igbos through thick and thin.
Yorubas have never betrayed or stabbed any tribe especially the Igbos but Igbos have betrayed Yorubas severally without them taking it to mind because Igbos have always been a junior sibling to the Yorubas and they have always treated them as such.
Secondly,Yorubas cannot hate Igbos that are not up to them in almost all ramifications..
Let love lead.

Butterfly calling himself a birth...

Hmmm nawaoo
Weaponization of poverty is real mehn
That's why if they tell you the North will vote like this or like that, it is unfortunately true because they have many factors that has held them down.
Poverty,Religion,Tribe,largely uneducated.
They largely depend on government handouts.
This is intentional evil by the political class.

I knew when the story started.Zeus mate her in Asaba.She said she will be trekking back to Aba...

WizardOfNG:
Lol will you guys ever be able to rise above a primordial predisposition for responding to everything emotionally and based on traditional prejudice you have against others? Is Vanguard also part of the "Lagos Ibadan Expressway media lies"?

https://www.vanguardngr.com/2025/08/2027-if-obi-cant-become-president-support-tinubu-rev-onuagha-tells-ndigbo/

Do you think all Igbos are like you and hate Yorubas and Tinubu to the extent they cannot be true to the God they serve and even their fellow men to then offer factual testimony of Yoruba's goodness towards Igbos as Rev Onuagha does below?



Umahi, Kalu and many of your reasonable leaders have confirmed the above. Yet you reject it to insist Yorubas and Tinubu are your enemies to the extent you now embrace Atiku, Malami, El Rufai etal as your new Gods.

The hatred of you lot for Yorubas, who have never harmed or threatened your interests, let alone carry out a pogrom against you as the North did, na die.

This is why Yoruba and Igbo relationship is strained today. You never put yourself in the shoes of Yorubas to note how you insist on demonizing a people who ,in reality and factually, are your greatest allies globally yet you proclaim them your "worst enemies" simply because we won't allow you turn our accommodating SW into an annex of your SE that Igbos control politically and administratively.


Good luck to you lot. I will only ask you to observe Yorubas have always been historically okay , because they tend to make dispassionately correct decisions, and have therefore avoided traumatic damages to their psyche as you Igbos forced upon yourself making sentimental decisions that led you into the Igbo Coup, Civil War and IPOB madness that has now left you a confused people suffering from mass PTSD today.

The talk of most of you confirm that, again, you are about to self-destruct.

Umahi,Kalu reasonable?
People that are only there for their immediate family that's the people your people embrace.
Any day they decide to contest they'd automatically become your enemies because of tribe..gerat
