Typical Nigerian Muslim. Find reasons to support your own. Even if Obi says the same thing, he wouldn't impress you. Nonsense.

The Chaos and destruction in Lagos occurred after the Lekki massacre incident. The perpetrators were venting their anger on Tinubu because they believed he was the one that ordered the massacre. That's why when they got to Oriental hotel and saw a banner saying that Tinubu is not the owner of the hotel, they turned back.

It’s genuine to ask how Obi can navigate the nation without a structure. It’s also genuine to feel that Obi is part of the lot. He was only selling us an Atiku and PDP less than a year ago. Now, Endsars appears political, when the core of the issue has gone beyond what motivated it, but that the government response was wicked and callous.

That should be the priority in any discussion of that terrible episode, to guarantee Nigerians an unrepentant pursuit of Justice for those killed on that day, not the promotion of characters like John Enenche.


To be clear, Atiku would never earn my vote; the decision is a function of his antecedents. Tinubu would also not earn my vote; he has channeled Lagos wealth to his own private coffers, but much worse is his health status, his age -all of which indicate he would likely only be a liability to the nation and perhaps intensify the nations descent into dreadful.

While, the above is my direction; it does not indicate my destination as I am yet to make a decision; however, it does not help my making a decision, the irritating buzz that comes from wanting to know more about Obi or know more about his acclaimed antecedents. What I know about him, which is true, does not support the premise upon which he aspires or is not sufficient for any right minded individual to pronounce him as some messiah of sort.

I know he is a remarkable story teller; and that being a remarkable story teller can gain you recognition or awards; but being a remarkable story teller can in itself, for a right minded person - be a red flag, especially when there are conscious effort such as bullying towards those hoping for some substantiation. To hope that his many claims are collaborated and substantiated is ‘just’ rather than the callous calumny campaign towards those hoping to collaborate or substantiate his candidacy in proper context. Such campaign is intended to detract our reason from more important questions about him and while it may propel him to many more than it diminishes him with fewer more; it hurts to see us all foolishly led and manipulatively mishandled.

The justification for such a callous act has been that the other two foremost candidates are in whatever disguise a much more worse lot for us as a country. I think one of the two candidates already have a political base that is impervious to reason; and even a powerful base at that, which is more attuned to ethnic and religious affiliations than to rescue themselves from poverty and insecurity afflictions they are so sustained. The candidate that now has this advantage with such a base had Obi as a deputy in the last election. The other candidate is not so fortunate with such a base, but the character of his perspective is equally gloomy. This has been the justification, that however the inadequacies in Obi, it’s a raindrop to the other candidate oceans of inadequacies. However how quickly can many raindrop turn to a flood, an hurricane, a ruin.

Are there other candidates more deserving of our propelling than an Obi without any luggage indicating their journey is further down? I believe, we should consider or else Obi repent of his current outlook and take on in many debates of genuine question about his aspiration to show truly why he is not the least worse of the lots, but actually good for Nigeria as a country and engage in this conversations, not politically but genuinely. His visitation and pursuit of endorsements by those who have ruined the nation only indicate that his direction might not be so much different.

Are there other candidates to examine?? Perhaps. However, they don’t have the momentum, Obi could sustain by being forthcoming and clear about his condemnations of the sources of the troubles of our country. It’s no longer, unmistakable, that Obi feeds into our emotional senses, and we applaud him, where we should question him and his nonexistent plan for the redemption of our country.

Comedy!

Just look at who is aspiring to be a vice president!

With the whole destruction and vandalization that happened during this protest, shouldn't COMMON sense dictate that, it was a face-off between security operatives trying to do their job and protesters.

Even if the security operatives went out of defined scope of their operations, I believe Datti should know the cause of mayhem.

I guess what he is saying is that the ENDSARS people should have foucsed more on bad governance and corruption...of which the SARS unit was a manifestation of.

You cannot deal with just a symptom of a disease without dealing with the cause first. (Or to put it bluntly, you cannot tell a malaria fever patient to just take panadol, you also have to add anti malarials.).

Simple

Modified

What confused people was that he mentioned the 'political underpinnings' of the issue...which makes people think that he is defending the oppressors. What he means, in plain english...is you cannot just end sars, you have to go down to the root of end sars...otherwise a new and more malignant plant would spring from the root.

Modified

Seriously, people, the key word in his comments is ROOT.

I agree with Datti on this one. The endsars movement has been politicized… some set of people are pointing fingers at someone that was holding no political seat at that moment. Why Lagos? Why not Anambra or other state? What about Awkuzu massacre? Their lives are not matter?

Hnmm..

In trying to appease his northern brothers , he has to sound conspiratory ..
Most hausa-fulani believe the #endsars was directed against their power and religion .
The northerners killed #Endsars protesters in Abuja ,(if you remember).


So we understand sir .. just do your job
