A 37 year old, Humza Yousaf is set to become Scotland's first minister, having won the keenly contested SNP's leadership contest. Born of Pakistani parents, who emigrated to Scotland in the 60's, Yousaf is from the ethnic minority and a muslim.
In an organised democracy like Scotland, Character Competence, Capacity, and Compassion, rather than ethnicity and religion form the basis on which credible leaders are voted into power. A lesson for Nigeria!
I have always maintained that Nigerians must rise above ethnicity, religion and sectarian politics in matters of governance; and that the leadership selection process must be strictly based on Character, Competence, Capacity and Compassion, only then, shall our democracy flourish, and our society progress. Contextually, the Scottish realty is instructive and presents us some lessons learned and missed opportunities.
As Nigerians, we must strive for a leadership imbued with Character, Competence, Capacity, Credibility and Commitment. -PO

What are you implying

;see who is talking you ran the most divisive campaign ever ,visiting just churches ,Christian and igbo dominated areas

Red thunder kill you there peter OBI after encouraging tribal and religious politics

Lol

Pakistan want to take your land o...

Scotland ronu ooo....

My president, Ethnic and sectarian politics emanated from a particular region of the country. Advising them is just like flogging a dead horse. Infact, Nigerian is too volatile to be an entity.

Nigeria is not one, Nigeria was never one.

I reckon that is why Nigeria has been rewinded backwards by 45 years following the outcome of the election, so that it can continue to favour its captors.

Peter Obi is too much of an idealist. Asking people to rise above tribalism is a good thing, however, in the case of Nigeria there is nothing to rise above to

The union of UK works, that is why you have an Indian prime minister, a Pakistani mayor of London, yet nobody is shouting. The union of Nigeria has never worked

What does not work, does not work,


Nigeria does not work

Stop promoting tribal content on Nairaland.

Advise yourself and your supporters before burning the country down with your egocentric nature.

This collosal perennial loser should move on without creating chaos and confusion in the country .

Emulate GEJ

See who is talking

The "do not vote Yoruba Party" hypocrite speaks. As if we are ignorant of his actual history before he joined LP in 2022.

The proven poster child of ethnic, religious and sectional bigotry now wishes to remove his toga of divisive hatred, he has worn proudly his entire political life, because he is desperate to lead Nigeria asunder as President.

Obi is a repellent and sadistic con artist. Nothing more and nothing less. I am.just glad he will now have no choice but to retire to his bigoted enclave to practice the unprogressive politics he has always being about. We reject such in our national politics same as Lagos resoundingly rejected his bigoted son Chinedu Gbadebo.

I hope you learnt that lesson as well sir, it's important. Besides, Nigerian politicians simply lack the four Big C's up there.

I will take you serious when An Ebonyi man get full employment in Anambra state government. This bastard sack non indigene working under the Anambra state government when he was a governor.

That is rich coming from Peter Obi

- Peter Obi that divided Anambra along religious line (Anglican and Catholics)

- Peter Obi that gave ID cards to Northerners living in Anambra

- Peter Obi that portrayed Ngige as a Yoruba candidate and anti Igbo candidate by creating campaign posters and billboard of Ngige sandwiched in-between Awolowo and Tinubu while his Apga candidates were sandwiched in-between Azikwe and Ojukwu.

- Peter Obi that was busy chasing out non indigenes out of Anambra

- Peter Obi that went to a church to campaign and was telling Christians in church to take their country back.

- Peter Obi that has raised an army of intolerant voters that insults any one with an opposing view to theirs.

E.t.c.

azadus18:

Yes. Just like Yorubas rewarded Governor Jackson Adeleke with a governorship position despite one of his wife being igbo and he himself half-Igbo.

After using catholitics against anglicans, church against mosque, tribe against tribe, even market against market, now the same man won they fum angel..

Correct Presido

Obi is obviously schizophrenic. This man ran the most religious presidential campaign ever. This consummate ethnic and religious chauvinist now pirouettes shamelessly to admonish Nigerians to "rise above ethnicity, religion and sectarian politics in matters of governance..."! He surely needs an appointment at YabaLeft.

I agree with you...Obi is a con artist, an unadulterated Yahoo guy. Are his followers too dumb to see him for what he is?

Don't mind him. 95% of his total votes came from his ethnic group and Christians. He told the churches/Christians to take their country back. I still don't know what he meant by that!

From the same hypocrite who visited churches more than the usual campaign ground.

From the same born hypocrite who used churches as the campaign ground urging Christian publicly to take back their country.

Na the mugus who fell Yakata for his tricks i blame

When a Yoruba man becomes the governor of Anambra state, that is when an Igbo man will rule Nigeria. If not, no Igbo man will ever rule Nigeria
