Dear southerners

Refuse to play into the hands of wicked people who want you to destroy your land and cause unrest in your state esp where LP is tipped be the majority

Why is the north quiet or do you think the naira scarcity is not affecting them

Make una shine una eyes o

We have endured APC for almost 8 years , a few more weeks will not kill us

Refuse to take part in looting and destruction

Vote LP

And end PDAPC

DepressedLoser:
Rubbish.....God, Na thunder go you for bringing me to this continent, Na useless idiot you be.... You and that your useless son.

Your father brought you to this world, not the Governor.
Go and ask your father why he gave birth to you considering the deplorable circumstances of his life.

God bless Oyebanji, good thinking.

You're talking of New Nigeria and you're talking about Peter Obi.
By this time last year, Peter Obi was in PDP.
Abeg go and sit down.

tuoyoojo:
Dear southerners
Vote LP
And end PDAPC

Your message is good but you spoilt it at the end
You want me to vote LP and end PDP.
your candidate in LP was in PDP a year ago.

If they gave him ticket in PDP, would he have run to LP?

Peter Obi would lose the election and decamp back to PDP after the election. Then, your eyes would clear.

great idea

Very good Idea, they are on their pathway to say bye to POVERTY if they are smart...

That's great of him.
