Putindbutt: The affairs between ADC, PDP and Peter Obi is likened to a proverb that says " cunny man die, cunny man bury am 😂😂. That's the price you pay for being a political prostitute and lacking integrity.
You really don't understand the meaning of integrity.
helinues: How is it logical to you for all the election to be conducted in one day without INEC being stretched? Opposition don't mean you people should just be opposing everything
Electronic voting don't not stretch any human being and machines don't fatigue. What stretches human beings is the process of election rigging.
helinues: Bro, it's not only in Nigeria, in every local election anywhere in the world, there is a measure to cross check the influence of non indigenes.
That is applicable anywhere including their region. Something they can never tolerate in their region but want to let it slide in other places
It is applicable everywhere in the world, yet your brothers are allowed to stand for and even win election in the UK, US and Canada. Such myopia
helinues: Why should you be aggressive about the decisions of the people of a place? Like do you want to tell them what they should do in their land as that's how they have been telling you what to do in your land?
Tribalism is the only platform where there is perfect convergence in thinking and ideology between the read and unread.
Softmirror: What are you trying to say? That we shouldn't care for our parents in their old age?!
MODIFIED:
He didn't mention men any where in the message he was trying to pass. If he did please show me. Hence, it wasn't gender specific. Which of course is not a good communication.
So, in essence a man will outlive his wife simply because he runs away from his responsibility of taking care of his family? How does a responsible man care for his family while neglecting himself?
There us no way a 'responsible' man can care for family without neglecting himself. So go ahead and care for your family and neglect yourself. Nobody is stopping you, but you will soon get wiser, albeit very late.
danvon: I think every single problem caused by Igbos began the day when Igbos abandoned farming and hunting and embraced trade with the British.
Trade culture requires constant seeking for new markets and customers, this is why there are Igbos everywhere, its practically impossible for Igbos to stay one place even if they wanted to, if Igbos were a minority it might be possible.
Another problem with trade dependence is the lack of adaptation, just imagine a nwaboy who has spent all his life as an apprentice, when it was finally time for him to be independent the market crashed. What other trade could he possibly do with his skillset? - Only crime is available to him especially trader crimes i.e. fraud, drug trafficking etc.
Igbos need to embrace a manufacturing culture and completely do away with trade culture.
Ps: Trade culture and nomadic culture have a lot in common but nomadic culture usually forces one to adapt to the land and therefore the culture of the land, trade culture does not do the same.
Igbo apprenticeship system has been adopted by Harvard University as a classical measure they recommend for poverty eradication and wealth redistribution. Argue with them
Human rituals for winning 2027 election activated. Instead of working for the people to earn their votes for re-election, they impoverish them and still kill them for ritual to enable them win election. Wicked people from Wasteland
richiemcgold: ADC as the platform for coalition is Atiku's brainchild. You can't be for ADC and be against Atiku's ambition. Whoever wants Obi to be president should encourage him to form his own party. Monkey can't be working for baboon to chop. No way!
So they invited Obi into the coalition to use him? You failed woefully. Atiku looses, maybe Obi also looses. What would Atiku have gained?
Putindbutt: But Obi was recently in Calabar, so why did he inform Gov Otu of his visit to his state if it wasn't necessary?. If Gov Alia and Okpebholo did not address his shenanigans, he would not have informed Governor Otu when he was going to Calabar. You guys do not know what it takes to be an ordinary councilor so you don't understand protocol. This was Obi that detained El-Rufai for 48hrs, so why the hypocrisy?
He has only taken over the southern political leaders. There, voters don't follow their political leaders because they are more or less all imposed. The tiny percentage of party faithful and hangers-on in the South cannot make Tinubu President.
Validated: Do not mind the sponsored post. When Tinubu abd Buhari could not form an alliance in 2011 because Tinubu was interested in presidency as Buhari, the PDP defeated both CPC and ACN. Fast-forward to 2014, the firmed APC with Tinubu remains patient. Peter Obi should support Atiku to do one term as President. Then in 2031, he can run as president for 8 years. Nothing wrong with Obi waiting till 2031, if not Obi has no other route to presidency.
Likewise, Atiku has no route to the presidency unless he allows South to complete her two terms by supporting Obi for just one term.
Validated: When Tinubu and Buhari could not form an alliance in 2011 because Tinubu was interested in presidency as well as Buhari, the PDP defeated both CPC and ACN. That taught them a lesson that one had to step-down for the other.
Fast-forward to 2014, they formed APC with Tinubu remaining patient while supporting Buhari. Tinubu's patience did not mean he was not interested in becoming president. He had to wait and in his place, supported an neophyte in the person of Osinbajo.The rest is now history.
Following from above, Peter Obi should support Atiku to do one term as President. With that arrangement APC will be defeated by 12.00 non. Then in 2031, he can run as president for 8 years. He can even beat his chest to say "Emolikan" in Igbo. There is absolutely nothing wrong with Obi waiting till 2031, if not Obi has no other route to presidency.
If Obi runs alone in LP or other party, APC will win again. Then come 2031, power will go back to the North. That means waiting till 2039, who knows who will be alive by then and infact Obi woukd have been 79 or 80 self, and too old to have a say.
My opinion ... nobody pays me to express it. However it is the bitter ruth that may be too bitter a pill for some people to swallow.
That spin did not sell. Come up with something more intellectual
attackgat: Mr Peter Obi, former presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP), on Friday donated N20m to the dentistry department of the University of Calabar (UniCal).
The donation, which was made in Calabar in the presence of some of the students of the department, is expected to be utilised for the procurement of more dental chairs.
According to Obi, I am interested in creating awareness that will aid the development of the people, and not discussing politics. “N20 million will buy five dental chairs. We cannot have a society where we spend millions to buy cars for politicians while young people lack tools to be educated with.
“Our schools lack laboratories, classroom chairs, but politicians are living like stars; this shouldn’t be.
“We must dismantle it and invest in the critical areas of development which are measurable, like education, health and pulling people out of poverty.” He also noted that governance was about the people, adding that he was struggling to build a society where the child of a nobody could be somebody.
He added that rather than talking about 2027, the nation’s leaders should be talking about the average Nigerian who could not put food on their tables, send their children to school or go to hospitals to get adequate care.
“I was once like these students; that is why I am pushing for us to build a proper society. As for 2027, I will be there, I assure you, and I will contest,” he said.
helinues: This comment of yours is just a validation of you not interested in contributing meaningful to any topic of discussion apart from trolling others.
Tragedy ko, traffic ni
The guy is only saying that even to defend nonsense effectively, one needs education.
EvilMerodack: Not everyone reason like you. You people would see a positive news from Bloomberg and IMF and still call it propaganda
Nah! We are smarter than that
As for the topic, the CSO of the state said he needs notification so as to guarantee Obi's safety. I dont understand the tears thats been flowing since he made that reasonable comment
If you can't read and write, can't you also hear and understand a clear statement of threat made by the governor?
AngelSlay: Blessing CEO's gesture of sending cooked food from Enugu to Lagos may seem romantic, but it's impractical and questionable. The delivery can cost over ₦80,000 — more than some Nigerians earn monthly — and poses serious food safety risks due to long transit times. It also reinforces outdated gender roles, where women go to extreme lengths to prove love. In reality, commitment should be mutual and thoughtful, not measured by dramatic or unsustainable acts. In other news, I think she's lying.
I hope this philosophy works for you. If you are yet to confirm its practicability in terms of fostering a happy home, why bring it here?
There’s serious celebration in Tinubu’s camp — and now we know why. A top ADC chieftain just dropped a bombshell on live TV, exposing what many have been whispering behind closed doors.
He claims the ADC has been hijacked — completely taken over by people who don’t care about the party. According to him, they only came to ADC to use it as a shortcut to power — and now they’re dragging the party into court battles left, right, and centre.
He even said a PDP politician is now claiming leadership inside ADC — while he, the only elected ADC official, is being pushed aside. Can you believe that?
Things have gotten so bad, he warned that this coalition might crash before it even begins. And here’s the twist — he’s calling for a full-blown alliance to back President Tinubu in 2027... claiming there’s no one strong enough to defeat him!
Guys, I’ll let you watch this video for yourself so you can see exactly what I’m talking about. Also don't forget to like, share and subscribe to this channel if you haven't already done so. Take a look guys, and remember to share your thoughts after watching.
DomPerignon: From all indications, the ADC Presidential ticket will go to Amaechi with El Rufai as his running mate.
PDP might go for a northerner in the form of Bala Mohammed to sweep up northern votes but this won't translate well in the south.
Amaechi will do very well in the NW and Bala Mohammed will do well in the NE.
Tinubu will get the constitutional requirement in the north but will win the NC, SS and SW hands down.
SE votes will be the most scattered as they will vote Amaechi , Bala and anyone LP produces .
The region will be insignificant .
Tinubu will win by a slim margin but a win is still a win.
You people will never speculate that Obi will secure the ADC ticket because you all know the implications. You are silently wishing that a paperweight secures the ticket so that Tinubu will stand a chance of defeating them. All these interests the ruling party is taking in who emerges as candidates of the differenr parties wouldn't have been necessary if they had focused on improving the quality of lives of the citizens who voted them, who they will still require to vote them again.
Now it seems that Tinubu's chances of winning a second term depends only on the choice of candidates of other parties.
How can one explain that a sitting president has nothing to campaign with except wishing that other parties bring candidates that will be worse than him as to make him remain the best amongst the worsts.
DomPerignon: Yusuf Datti has declared his intentions to run under the LP as their substantive candidate for the 2027 Presidential elections.
He made this declaration before the authentic court recognised Abure leadership and not before the usurper SE faction .
Datti has now realized that Obi is hell bent on being Atiku's running mate under ADC .
Datti's declaration to contest the LP ticket is a declaration of his resentment towards Obi and the Umuahi faction.
Note that the only reason for the Umuahi faction is to ensure Abure is ousted so as to pave the way for an automatic ticket for Obi. Obi and his usurper gang in the self declared interim NWC know Obi can not win a free and fair primary because outside the Umuahi SE faction , Obi has no support from other LP national delegates.
Datti knows he can't win the Presidential elections but he is hell bent on repaying Obi's horse trading by ensuring that the LP ticket does not go to Obi.
Obi is very cunning and has a well recorded legacy of betraying members of his own party for his selfish inordinate ambition. Recall how Obi was caught on a hot mic incidence telling them Governor Wike to allow him win Rivers Presidential elections in exchange of Wike producing the Governor . Do you think the LP gubernatorial candidate will be happy with that?
As for Datti , he knows he has been ditched by Obi who now prefers to be Atiku's running mate under the ADC.
But can Atiku clinch the ADC ticket with the cabal now fully entrenched and all out to produce Amaechi as their flag bearer?
All in all, it's a big loss to Obi and Datti is now the latest individual to dump the Obidient camp.
EmekaA125: PDP Finally Zones 2027 Presidential Ticket to the South Barely two years to the 2027 general election, and few weeks after the Former vice president of Nigeria, Atiku Abubakar, announced his resignation from PDP, the party has finally made up its mind to zone its presidential ticket to the South. Speaking to Daily Independent on Tuesday, the Deputy National Youth Leader, Timothy Osadolor, disclosed that the party has opened its presidential ticket to all eligible southerners when he was asked where the party would zone its presidential ticket. “The PDP has opened the presidential ticket to all eligible southerners. We are zoning to the South.” The PDP would hold its caucus, Board of Trustees (BoT) and National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting today and tomorrow to address issues bedeviling the party and ratify congresses held previously.
Obi wise pass una. After mortally weakening the party, it is now time to toss it to Igbos like a lean piece of bone is tossed to a hungry dog. They should just micro-zone it to Jada LGA in Adamawa State in North East or Obio-Akpor LGA of Rivers State in South South. Some blokes there should need the PDP ticket more desperately than SE.
helinues: You people will come to our region to share the little resources meant for the indigenes and still be disrespectful.
You can't plant guava and be expecting to harvest Apple
Nobody shares anything. Everyone earns his keep and still contributes to the development of the State by paying all outrageous taxes so imposed aa well as extortion by agberos and Iyalojas
