Tell your father to go and contest, mumu.
Yeye Biafran.

AkalaJ:
Op, after all your anti-Tinubu rant, you still didn't tell us who you would prefer as your president. Last time I checked, Tinubu has not stopped anyone from contesting, heck he hasn't even declared his interest, yet you people are developing epilepsy on top his matter. Na wah! In a democracy anyone is free to contest. Stop this obsession with Tinubu and rather promote your own preferred candidate.

I'll rather prefer Fashọla than anyone else in the country -- if Nigeria were a fortune 500 company, he'd probably be their number 1 candidate. I've written about this many times on Nairaland (probably, you're new here).

That said, for what it is, it should be the turn for someone from the southeast region of this country -- are we saying no one from the millions of educated folks from the southeast is fit to be president?

If you want another President from the Southwest, then the Northerners are right to insist on another 8 years.

1. He is old and frail . . . we can't and shouldn't go from one " Sick-London-President" to another "Sick-London-President". He is 71 thereabout, imagine Tinubu as president @ 81 (2031).

2. He is old with old ideas, we need new ideas.

3. He has a few corruption/criminal charges against him, we don't want people with such baggage.

4. He's suspect in the hoodlums Endsars attack issue, if not, why were the thugs sent to disrupt peaceful protests not sought after, even after their faces are all over the internet. Why would they attack Igbosere court to destroy all the court cases along with the ones filed against Tinubu?

5. Still on Endsars, @ Lekki tollgate shooting, he is suspect, the man even blamed the victims (protesters) shot at Lekki tollgate for being there. There is a video of him practically doing that: asking what were they (peaceful protesters) doing there?

6. There are younger more vibrant with less baggage individuals in Nigeria than BAT who is just more of the same ol' . . .

7. If equity and unity are virtues we seek and do not want the strife and restlessness in the country to continue beyond Buhari, then, someone from the Southeast deserves to be president -- it should be their turn.

I come in peace. ✌️

[s]Number 7 is a non starter. Because the South East has not shown any political dexterity when it comes to national issues. They still have a lot to learn and likely improve on, that is if they want to, or they can just continue to burn their states down. We will accept them as IDPs in the south south.[/s]

[s]Number 6, 2, 1 are good and observable points. But it would seem the world in recent years are voting in old men to lead their countries. Maybe experience of age, maybe the political base or whatever, because let us face it, a political party, any political party will choose a candidate with the best chance to victory.[/s]

[s]Number 3 is actually not catching the bite is should or would catch in the past. First of all, all Nigerians are corrupt, even you. There is no Nigerian that would be the first to cast the stone if he is given the opportunity. Second, the FG under Obj tried bringing him down on corruption charges but lost. Irrespective of what you think or feel, the fact remains, he has not been convicted of anything, yet and may never be.

Number 4, 5 are what I would say, probably you like a one sided story and are deliberately so invested in telling the distorted version of it. MNK broadcasted that Lagos should be burned down, he gave others, did you forget these? who was he giving orders too? The peaceful protesters or the tout? I guess you will belief whatever you want to believe, as long as it suits your interest.[/s]

My Take?
Anybody is free to context, the constitution guarantees it. If you feel up for it, throw your hat into the ring. [s]The idea of trying to prevent a contestant from contesting only shows the weakness and fears you have[/s]. It was seen when PDP tried to avoid PMB from contesting, it was evident it was a losing strategy. The handwriting was there.

[s]Useless post from a useless inebriated flat headed fool from the cursed erosion ridden redmudland[/s].

Werey, if my father were alive, he will still be too old to contest (the man has done his stint for Nigeria and left) everybody that doesn't share your perspective is a Biafran, is this how you lot and Tinubu would run the country?

I'm probably closer to Tinubu than you, but it's practically impossible for you guys to reason beyond sentiments and compulsive emotions.

[s]go n wake him up to come n contest now,useless cannibal[/s]
