remember our national anthem and pledge? There was a line somewhere in there that went . . .

SO HELP ME GOD

God is now helping ’WE’ to decide the kind of country we want because left for us alone, we are lost.

I honestly love to agree with you but facts on the ground do not support your position. Countries like China, India, and Scandinavians are doing very well without God in their national anthem.

Picked for what exactly? The USA that works according to u didn't convict him and u want Nigeria judiciary system that does not work to arrest him , u must be high on drug

Why do you people see black and call it white? Don't you have conscience at all? Or are you playing the 'he's my tribe men's card'? Too bad, just too bad

Goodlady:

There's no concrete evidence of that drug case.
Since 1999, it has been speculations and release of little or no evidence. I v studied the case to an extent and all I see is allegations by opponents.
This won't bring Tinubu down. His downfall is not of man. He's destined to rule Nigeria. Enough of all these plots.
The way Obi and Atiku are running around is funny cos Obi has Pandora, Atiku has Atikugate etc.
Maybe judge ll disqualify all of them and give win to Kwankwaso.
Whichever way, these shows of bad belle is just a comic show.
What we want in Nigeria is restructuring of constitution to regional govt, reduction in budget of salaries of politicians and death penalty to corruption.
I don't know why you people think you know more than Obis lawyers. There is evidence of his asset forfeiture due to drug related offences. David hundeyin has been tweeting them in their numbers since last year. It will not get Tinubu arrested or anything, but legally, it's enough to disqualify him for presidency.

...(d) he is under a sentence of death imposed by any competent court of law or tribunal in Nigeria or a sentence of imprisonment or fine for any offence involving dishonesty or fraud (by whatever name called) or for any other offence, imposed on him by any court or tribunal or substituted by a competent authority for any other sentence imposed on him by such a court or tribunal

Asset forfeiture and indictment are not the same thing. Obi's lawyers may be privy to other documents that are not public. This is going to be interesting in the days ahead because Obi and Tinubu are very tough and stubborn individuals who do not give up.

The case is dead on arrival. If this is what obi’s lawyers have taken to court, they have scammed their client.

okay but you saw the part where they said "fine for any offence involving dishonesty, fraud" right?

A country where Buhari, a coup plotter, is a two-time president.
Exactly...only criminals and morally-corrupt individuals become Nigeria president
