We only have IPOB and others here, even Atiku supporters are tagged IPOB. It well known fact that even outside nairaland once you don't bear Hausa or Yoruba name you're na omo Igbo....
Kyase: Atiku biggest challenger is not even Tinubu
It’s Buhari, wait make Buhari go north raise Tinubu hand come tell dem one or two things for Hausa na that time una go know who really Buhari is in the North
All the noise Atiku Dey make for north na because Baba never talk
Have you visited Katsina recently? Sit in your cave and spit trash on people's behalf, they're killing APC supporters here.. Buhari ko Muhammadadu ni
Zetra7: Am just curious, is the hate real or just politics.
I mean, who would hate a man like that who has shown clearly that he is different from our normal politicians.
I don't quite understand, is it cause he's Ibo? I remember quite well during Okonjo Iweala's battle to become the DG of WTO, some Nigerians even supported blocking her from the job cause her tribe, is the same thing playing out with Peter Obi??
Ok, but politics aside, who will hate men like the Former Emir of Kano Sanusi or Akinwumi Adesina for their passion to see a New Nigeria, why the hate for a man that have proved himself to be worthy to help us.
Let's relate guys, we are the masses right? We have felt the impact of the dark cloud covering the nation for a long time, How is it difficult to choose from the Atiku, Tinubu and Obi.
Now am not saying any of them is perfect but guys, we are choosing between men bent on the old ways and a man who wants to charter a new path.
For the first time, we have a very learned, vast travelled, very exposed intellect vying for presidency, for the first time , we have a man very close to the masses and not some Kings lording over us.
I mean, we know this is not pretense, a clear record of his past is there, with cutting cost of governance, fixing his state during his tenure to saving extras for the next government.
How do we even argue, debate or compare. It's a bit strange for me don't know sbout you. If there was Osinbajo on the ballot and El rufai, it would have made a huge difference.
Again I ask , are we not the masses Can anyone swear a life and death oath that this man is not better than those old crooks, why the hate then??
We have seen the effect of a Buhari, do you think you reading this will escape the effect of Atiku or Buhari? Even if you live abroad, you have families here and you will likely come back to visit.
Britain after playing foul politics with the just gone prime minister felt the negative imapct and quickly retraced their path by choosing a 42 year old, Indian to govern them based on competence.
In Nigeria, we pray every minute for Nigeria to change yet God sends a Saviour and what do you do, hate him.
Rishi Sunak is God's sent to Britain as Peter Obi is your Saviour, if you like don't accept him and keep praying for God to come down himself to help.
For the first time , we have all the political elites on one side INCLUDING POLITICAL ELITES FROM HIS TRIBE and have a Peter Obi leading the masses on the other side, PLEASE, is this not the best opportunity to drown all these corrupt emperors politically?
Nobody sees Peter Obi family in the election ever his wife is minding her business cause she knows just like in Anambra , she's not getting an office of first lady but just look at Tinubu and Atiku, their wives and their children.
People of Nigeria wake up from slumber, don't know if this is juju, hailing oppressors and fighting saviours, Nawoooooo
Again I ask , why do you hate this man??
A lot of you forget that the birds born in cages belive freedom is a crime.
Not their fault, most Nigerians are under manipulations and would never admit. It's use to be us against them but majority of us have joined them because of tribe it personal benefit.. Majority of those voting in the wrong leaders don't strive to do well in life..

donphilopus: Most of these Obi's supporters are so dull. What's Wike's business with Tinubu? Since he had issues with Atiku, has anyone ever seen a picture of him with Tinubu? We've seen different pictures he took with Obi. If his outburst would affect any candidate in the north, it should be Obi not Tinubu.
And again, Wike's issue with Atiku has nothing to do with southerners and northerners. It's purely an intra party affair. Since the north already has the Presidential candidate in the PDP, Ayu should resign so a southerner would replace him.
Instead of reading to understand, you'll read with the mindset to come reply...
The attacks on Atiku from the southern part will give him sympathy votes from his region, beside it's Tinubu who 100% rely on Northern vote, you only hear about Tinubu in the SW region. Makinde has cast the dice... Nothing concern Obi here leave him and his supporters alone
lhordspy: I still don't understand what that has got to do with ganduje working against Tinubu. The same Ganduje that was in Lagos with tinubu yesterday?
And i dont remember asking you if you are from the North. Lol. Or is your conscience pushing you. These days, every emekas and chidinma are all from the North.
Stay away from Mpukuruimmiri. Bro.
Reason I don't mostly reply you guys, use vulgar words and foul language on everyone, I'm not your regular banter sir, and please I'm not even from the core North, I'm from benue state. attack all the Emeka and Chidinma as your please but that won't change the fact on ground. Visit North.
lhordspy: What are you even saying. I dont even understand. Ganduje will work against tinubu? . Bro, please you should pick another nairaland section like comedy or romance. Politics section is not for you.
Lol The urge for the southwestners to dictate to us what we can see on ground is the lowest form of awakening, bro come and visit us here please, I promise to host you. I'm in funtua now but I'll be in Kano this weekend, come and see for yourself before over confidence lead you to total dismay..
lhordspy: You see what some people dont understand is you can never go wrong when you are faced with two options. Especially when it involves aligning with a winner who always wins or a constant regular loser.
George Steinbrenner once said, and i quote: “Winning is the most important thing in my life, after breathing. Breathing first, winning next"
Seyi makinde chose the winning side, a wise man will always chose the winning side not because he loves to win but because he hates losing and the downfall that accompany the defeats.
Oyo state governor supporting Tinubu Publicly is going to cost Tinubu a lot in the North.. that's an anti-party activity and belive me the northerners are waiting for that dice to be casted. Now even Ganduje like his deputy inlaw might work against Tinubu.. In fact Gombe and Kano APCs suspended campaign because that yesterday. Watch out brother.
FreeStuffsNG: Twin Brother of Pa Adebanjo. The two were once great Elderstatesmen whose words used to count a lot because they were not in partisan politics of bigotry and hatred.
Now everything they say is seen through the prism of politics.
Lol We all perceived anyone against us as a threat, well that's how the brain recoreded it.. but then if same person turn around today and support us, we'll praise them, though the person hasn't changed, just a change of interests.. don't be bias brother Clark is on point here. Don't let your support for a candidate make you hate the Truths
haslaw: That you are from NC doesn't justify the death of Fatima and her 4 little children. Only a stone hearted person will think it's OK to MURDER an innocent woman and her 4 little children
I really feel sorry for your soul and I will not reply you anymore.
May God heal your soul.
Lol You definitely mistake me for someone else, I didn't even mentioned anything related to death, maybe you should go back and read my quote again.
I don't have anything to do with you oga.. You are delusional, you don't read to understand but to reply, replying out of context... whether you like it or not it's statistically impossible for your Jagaban to become president, even with 90% yoruba votes... rest
Where was your voice when Fatima and her 4 innocent kids were MURDERED in cold blood in the South East
Just answer the question or gettat.
Since you justify the murder of Fatima and her 4 kids, You are no different from the killers of Deborah
Lol Read what I wrote again but this time carefully.. Didn't insult you I'm not even close to the east talkless of being an IPOB.. I'm from middle belt bro
BloomingDale: Ok, but I see the zombidiots on every goddamn thread, even when it's not about politics, which is very annoying. Somebody dies, vote Obi with insults on Tinubu. Somebody takes a run, vote Obi with insults on Tinubu. Somebody wins a trophy, vote Obi with insults on Tinubu. I'm tired of them. Them foools are driving me crazy. Lol Maybe that's why I'm taking out my anger out on them.
Sorry, we are all tired. Do away with nairaland once in a while.
BloomingDale: I don't mind if you are against Tinubu as I'm not voting for him or any other candidate. Moreover I'm not from the South West. It's the deceit of pretending to be from another region/tribe that is my pet peeve. You guys do this a lot and it is very very annoying. Not to talk of all the insults you guys dish out like candies.
You guys are not strategic with your insults. You just hurl out insults like toddlers throwing a tantrum. That is what brings the disrespect to you and your ethnic group. Take the Yoruba's for instance, they are very strategic in that aspect and that is why you hardly see any other ethnic group hating on them.
Lol I am not igbo either but you're bias here, go to the politics section and you will change your mind about the yorubas online, you're already taking side without proof, both the yoruba and igbo on naira has no difference, if you support obi the call you IPOB and if you support Tinubu you automatically urchin.. and from the name difference here, urchins doesn't represent tribe but IPOB is a tribe.. so who is insulting the entire tribe? sentiment aside..
Reading through the line you'll find the Yorubas trying to tag her igbo, well the igbos are closer to us in the North than the yorubas.
This thread has nothing to do with the southeast but you guys are already dragging them in. Shameful that small labour party has turn to main opposition due to APCs poor governance.
OsunOriginal: So, only Israel is self-sufficient in Agriculture and with a land mass less than that of Nasarawa? Do you know Mauritius? It is a tiny island off the coast of Africa (SA), they even export food and agricultural raw materials to countries in Africa. So, when did Israel become the standard for measuring the land mass required to be self-sufficient in food production? Don't respond without engaging your brain first please...
OsunOriginal: While addressing his supporters in Nasarawa today, Obi said Nasarawa is big (calling it a big country) with a land mass bigger than that of Israel. My question is, when did Israel become the reference point for measuring how big a place/land mass is? Nigerian politicians and petty politicking...
You've been here since 2012, that means you're likely an adult.. And you create thread like a 12 years child. That comparison means the land mass is big enough for the people of Nasarawa to be self sufficient in agriculture..
lexylaw40: VISIONARY" check out the word.....you can download a dictionary if don't have one
I'm correct brother. A visionary leader in the sense that he laid all the plans/ foundations for what lagos was, is and even to become right ? Stop insulting the likes of Marwa, IBB, Fashola etc. I repeat if BAT build lagos what antecedents will other Governors campaign with?
Telling to me to get dictionary is not the right way to communicate, be responsible thanks
lexylaw40: From bar Beach to Eko Atlantic : please if Tinubu can have this vision for Lagos as a governor and this project already manifesting as we speak please can you imagine what this man will do for Nigeria if elected the president. And have it in mind that this is just one example of his vision for Lagos State eg The Lekki Free zone project is near completion with Dangote Refinary Already completed, The Lekki Seaport already completed and now the New airport on the way and many more. You see by the time Dangote Refinary alone starts working Foreign investors will flood the Eko Atlantic begging Lagos for a plot, as you can see THE UNITED STATE OF AMERICA ALREADY BUILDING THE LARGEST US EMBASSY IN WORLD ON EKO ATLANTIC is a perfect example of what I'm trying to tell you. .... You see I can go on and on . The man BOLA AHMED TINUBU IS THE MAN WITH THE VISION THAT WILL MOVE NIGERIA FORWARD.
Lol If Tinubu become the president of Nigeria he has just 2 tenure which is 8 years, if you yorubas use all the achievements of both past and present Governor of lagos to campaign for him, what will others use to campaign? This is lowest level of campaign I have seen, even the Anambra state that was in ruin due to war few years ago is what you're comparing with a capital city for 77years. No matter the kind of campaign you do, it is statistically impossible for Tinubu to become the president of Nigeria except Atiku or Kwankwoso step down for.. I'm inviting you to BCGA funtua before you call me IPOB
OnionBandit: No. It isn't. You guys talk like you have no brain in your skull. If the hospitals here can't handle your problem, why not go elsewhere to seek solutions. No country is self-sufficient..Not even in any sector.
I don't insult people on SM but listen to yourself, the hospital the leaders seek elsewhere are equipped by the leaders in those communities. Why can't our leader raised ours to standard?
Yes our leaders are doing the wrong because people like you are available to defend their ineptude..
One would expect that these people will learn from what happened when Buhari contested in 2015. Many of those who wished him death are gone now and the fura guzzling Fulani man is still fresh and healthy..
For those who are too slow to understand anything, the lesson here is.."Only God has such powers to give life and cause death"
.
You're despicable Was looking for the mockery all through, so it's right for our leaders to go abroad for health purpose ?
Well Our leaders represent majority of who we are as a society.
Quintopia: I AM VERY SUSPICIOUS OF WHO IS PUSHING THIS GUY remotely..
Western intelligence agencies are known to use 'popular' candidates whom they sponsor remotely, to achieve their agenda in target countries. Obama was one such person. Trump was another.
The USA has been wanting to establish a military base in Nigeria for decades, and Nigerian leaders have refused 100% on account of the need to protect Nigeria's sovereignty and independence.
Peter Obi should be asked if he intends to allow the establishment of a US military base in Nigeria.
If he even hesitates before answering, he should be barred from contesting these elections.
You claimed to be intelligent but think who ever have contrary views than yours is IPOB or traitor. Anyone who support Obi is an IPOB etc.
To your question. The presidential debate is coming up please forward it to the appropriate person and don't forget we have 4 major contenders. NB I no be IPOB might even be your brother.
OsunOriginal: The country has witnessed walks in key cities for some presidential aspirants. Notable among these are the walks for Tinubu in Lagos, Ibadan, Oshogbo, Ekiti, Ondo, Benin, Asaba, Abakaliki, Owerri, Kogi, etc and Obi's walks in south-east and south-south cities. We haven't, however, seen any excitement around Atiku's candidacy anywhere in the country. Even the north doesn't seem attracted to his candidacy and therefore has not seen any street walks for him in any major cities of northern Nigeria. Yes, walks are southerners' inventions which the politically sophisticated northern Nigeria may not see any need for. However, what about the south? Are we saying Atiku doesn't have any supporters in the south who could organize a successful walk for him?
The fitness walk is actually to create awareness for parties like LP and other minor parties to be known generally..... APC walking for BAT because they're jittery, they feel Obi is a threat nothing more..
Rozross: Only the wise can know the true meaning of this lol. We are getting closer, may Nigerians not be deceived by lies and deceits from Peter Obi(Though he’s not a competition)
This thread has nothing to do with Obi..
Told you all to campaign on your candidates strengths not opponents weakness..
alanto: Dear Fellow Nairalanders Of Igbo Extraction.
You must know that Yorubas are naturally peaceful people, I never had issue with any Igbo person in real life even until now that I write, many of my friends are igbo both the one I benefit from and the ones that benefit from me, they don't tell us from our homes what tribe to hate or what tribe to love, rather they teach us to love everyone because we are not assured tomorrow happenings.
Tinubu's wife is Ishekiri, Akeredolu Igbo, Fani Kayode several igbo exes (and still chasing igbo girls), myself married from middle belt, so tribalism is not a Yoruba thing, matter of fact we only deal with people that tries to sabotage peace after which everybody moves on, you will not even think Yoruba and Hausas or whoever fought on that spot the day before. I'm urging my igbo brothers on nairaland and social media to be reasonable, to be a president of Nigeria you can't make enemy with a major tribe, especially not a tribe like Yoruba with so many powerful and influential people...
You dont have to vote Tinubu even every yoruba man will not vote Tinubu but don't go about insulting him and his people over politics... When I newly joined nairaland I always said this was going to get to the street, we saw what happened in Alaba last week, I'm still saying it now that the way some igbo guys are going on social media it will make Yoruba start having the feeling that Igbos harbor hate for them, it's a very long walk but when you are there, you are there.
So.. I'm urging y'all to do politics without hate, of course there will be banter here and there but don't degrade a whole tribe, don't malign Tinubu, he is our leader, he's an elder state man in Yorubaland, no reasonable Yoruba man will enjoy it when you insult Tinubu and Yorubas in general. That's not how Obi can get vote, you can't flog someone to love or accept you, the love won't come real.
Signed: Alanto
You made good points but what about us from middle belt that are tagged IPOB by your brothers?
Is it reasonable to say that anyone against BAT is an IPOB? Scroll through the politics section without sentiment and you'll realize the hate you preached against is actually harbour by your brothers...
This election has been reduced to Yoruba and Igbo supremacy on media...
Bragalane: Bro this is very true, I right now refugees from Anamabra n Adamawa are arriving into Lagos in drove. Just imagine if Tinubu had mismanages Lagos state finance where will they be running to. This is why Nigeria must vote Bola Ahmed Tinubu cos of the refuge he provided saving tonnes of refugees especially from Anambra where Peter Pandora only looted state resources into daughter's Gabrielle Pandora account. My it never be well with him n his entire household.
Please return to class, sounded like a dropout.. 90% of youth don't even know the difference between IGR and GDP and they want to be leaders.
Go and educate yourself bro and stop coursing Obi because is already well with him and his entire household..
Is this why shinedu has been crying since morning?
If the crowd is overwhelming, they call it "money induced", otherwise, they tag it "nobody wants Tinubu".
Ipob cry tire.
I used to respect you as a guest on NL but you're becoming a nuisance.. we have a lot of populations In the middle belt and other part of Nigeria and this election is not between igbo and yoruba.. We from middle belt without a yoruba name or hausa's are tagged igbos automatically.. we the wait for Tinubu in benue state bro.
