We don hear. Thank God no be APC dey Abia. PDP and Labour Party, 2 brothers fighting.

APC had a candidate.

OGwales:
Madam rest... We don hear but we are not interested in your long story. You simply favoured your distance cousin, Otti. The INEC chairman was also threatened by the dense, yet he no make noise. He simply did his job yes, The INEC chairman did better and the will of the loving Nigerians prevailed.

Distant cousin from Ebonyi & Abia states?

Hahahaha.

Actually, Monetarily it would have paid her to support the incumbents'party PDP.

Kingcalls:
For twitter ...see as dem de wash Argentina say dem de organise cheap games on purpose for Messi to stat pad for him

The third goal.

YeyeGbami:
Shut your stinking mouth, why are you crying. Cash hoarders spotted

The Nigerian Financial Intelligence Unit has the intelligence on individuals & corporates with high frequency of cash withdrawals so why not go to them SPECIFICALLY if you detect irregularities.

'punishing' everyone to get at those who you can identify doesn't seem brilliant to me.

N3TRAL:
Wike was neutral during the presidential election. He is a very good, honest, kind and peaceful man. Stop blackmailing him.

He stood for justice, fairness and power shift to the South.

He has stated that he didn't support Peter Obi. However, he didn't work against him.

God bless Wike , the best Governor in the history of my beloved State.

Let's be clear on one thing: Wike wasn't neutral in this elections. No politician is Neutral in an election nevermind a presidential one.

Consequently, saying that he was neither against not in support of Obi is a logical inconsistency.

It like saying I'm neither in the country nor out of the country. So where I'm I?

Throwback:
APC really did well to motivate their base to vote in the state elections.

No breathing space for zombies in Lagos. Even in the SouthEast, they struggle to win.

So Tinubu lost the Presidential in Lagos because they (APC) didn't come out to vote?

No longer that Muslim - Muslim ticket or Campaign by churches?

Lol.

alanto:
Check this... First on arrival he met with the president, then he addressed their parliament, they agreed with him and then he confer the whatever title he wanted to...

Some people would have gone their to promote their rights and then started calling the place a no man's land... Imagine all the praises the Ooni showered on Brazil for helping his People flourish...

Na SW common sense dey live walahi

Your analogy is inconsistent.

The OONI is a foreigner in Brazil.
No Nigerian is a foreigner in Nigeria.

While Lagos isn't a No man's land, our Constitution is quiet on indigeneship.

There's nothing like indigeneship in our Constitution so technically, an Ekiti man is as good or bad 'a foreigner' as a Rivers man in Lagos.

It is primordial tribal sentiments (also unconstitutional) that makes the Ekiti man more 'recognized' in Lagos than a Rivers man.

Mercury12:
well I'm not the one complaining about bride price. If he could afford it he won't be disturbing us on nairaland.

All tribes of people complain of costs.

Even rich men count the costs. And although they don't complain, when things go awry you hear things like: after all I did for her/her family.


Nigeria is largely a poor country so it's hard to find a tribe in which even 20% are well to do. I.e. Rich.

Mercury12:
You wan marry Igbo lady and you no get money?
Why you wan suffer yourself like this?

There aren't poor or average married Igbos?

Homeless or destitute Igbos?

Stop thinking Monolithically.

The North has a reputation for poverty YET the wealthiest man is from there!

sisisioge:
Why not ask her, she would know?

Btw, your question sef is insensitive in the wake of the current massive discrimination against the Igbos. You should have allowed us drink water drop cup on top the matter first before bringing your own matter. Igbophobia kor, livephobia ni!

Isn't it clear that the OP himself is Igbo?

Looks so to me.

Dave0116:
Communist countries seem to be doing way better than capitalist ones 🤔

Which country is a communist country?

And what country are they doing better than?

IyaebeTheGreat:
Hmmm is like Asari knows what we don’t know. My own is Obi came third and Atiku second, which simply means Atiku was closer to winning than Obi, so why is Obi and his supporters more aggressive than the person that came second? Politics is like mathematics, you’ll have to calculate right to get an accurate answer. In all honesty I don’t believe Obi ever won because it was crystal clear that northerners( major deciders) massively voted for Asiwaju and it was for this reason Asiwaju based his campaign over there which made him eventually lose Lagos to Obi. We should be over all these already and let the court handle the rest

The mathematics doesn't work that way.

Both Atiku & Obi are within 1.1 & 1.6m votes respectively from the winner.

IF

You can prove that a certain volume of votes were wrongly imputed to another candidate from the rightful owner, you reduce the winners tally while increasing yours.

Of course this is simplistic but PROOF is the core here.

jumper524:
Anything dollar na legal scam.
Ordinary paper that isn't backed by real gold.

They just print it.
The international loan market should be driven by assets and services not printable paper cash.

Why isn't it denominated by the Yuan, Renminbi & Ruble?

Technically speaking you can hold reserves in all those too.

You guys forget that the $ didn't create the USA's greatness BUT it was the USA's greatness that made the $.

Just like how Russia & China have equivalents of ALL popular social media platforms that are American owned but outside these countries, people prefer the US based platforms — even when they can use QQ, Weibo, WeChat, Vkontact etc.

vastolord4:
This is huge! Are you guys still cursing Russia? Once your big, your big for life! Russia is a "dad" compared to what the US is to us.

But 20$bn isn't up to US waived debts & Aids to Africa now. Is it?

LagosG:
Pele. If everyone left their post to go and pray anytime they wished, would the organization function? Even Aso Rock that has a chapel and mosque have those spaces closed and only opened at the appropriate time. If you're Muslim and have to pray 5 times daily, I advise you adjust.

This should inspire you to embrace entrepreneurship where only you can sack yourself. If you become an employee again tomorrow, next tomorrow, they can fire your silly ass again.

Good luck

And entrepreneur is also 'bossed' by his customers!
No one is without reins in this world.

Employees are also important too. One just has to be a little untethered too.

ChatterHouse:
Sanwo olu deserve to be re- elected


Without unnecessary disinformation and bigotry display by the highly yoruba tribe


I hope he knows that all power belong to Allah

No leader 'deserves' anything in Nigeria.

None.

LP, APC or PDP.

Tell me one macroeconomic index that has improved since 2015? And you're here talking about. Deserving.

As performances go, Sanwolu did no better than Ambode YET he tool over from the man.
We didn't hear anything like deserves then.

Now you're talking about deserve.

Jackson105:
Useless pig.

What concern the fool with Lagos election, no wonder he was Chased away from Birghimian university.

His greatest nightmare is seeing Tinubu presidency, unfortunately for him, Tinubu will rule him and his papa.

And lastly, Yorubas are not sorry for what happened in Lagos on Saturday, nobody can take over our land all in the name of wokeness, Lagos is very important to Yoruba land, we will do everything to prove and retain it, if that's painful for you, go back to your barren region

You do know he's from Lagos right?

thebosstrevor1:
Aren't they supposed to arrest sowore for inciting violence during endsar protest.

This same sowore wanted to cease the international airport, isn't that a coup.

Ad for the so called social media influencer, he should carry his cross, if he is found quilty, then he should face the music.

He was arrested.

Are you in Nigeria at all?


Arrested in 2019 August. Released in November 2020.

Teeroyzimma:
Same as trolling

I don't understand you?

Obaofaba:
Lp is a local champion.

Truth be told, if the presidential election is to be reconducted today, LP won't make the top 4.

[b]Most Yorubas that voted Obi have seen the light and are seriously regretting [/b]their actions right now most especially in Lagos.

Lp was built on a very faulty foundation of lies and deceit. Obi is a fraudulent character and will remain so forever.

Nigerians seriously dodged a bullet.

Lol.

The maybe ~400k+ Yorubas who voted him have seen the light and came to inform you that they are regretting?

Na wao!

How can you equate trolls & bullies online to real death?
That's no how literary devices work!
Block! Block! Block!

Also, politics is generally a charged subject so declaring you political choices/view online suggests that you don't mind a debate.

Bullying & trolling are wrong, however, they are not comparable to real life assault.
In fact, there are few places in the world where it is a chargeable offense.

Karlifate:
Now, you're simply regurgitating my earlier comments.

BVAS exposed the bloc votes gotten by past administrations.

PDP got their millions of Northern votes by rigging, from OBJ to GEJ.

Even your "saint" Buhari.

Who said PMB is a saint?

Karlifate:
Again. You're only commenting based on your immediate environment.

You're sad that Emperor Wike manipulated BVAS, but you're happy that BVAS reduced Northern bloc votes.

Again, PDP are still the biggest riggers of elections since 1999.

All riggers are riggers.

APC, PDP & LP rigging are equally bad.

Measuring rig, rigger, riggest is a fool's errand.

Again, there's nothing like Northern block vote.

PMB had Northern 'bloc' vote since 2003 but couldn't win until the SW supported him in 2015.

GEJ won the elections in 2011 without winning NE & NW States.

Karlifate:
Your partisanship has made you not to be objective.

The past winners didn't have the BVAS hurdle before them.

PDP are still the biggest riggers of elections, since 1999.

I'm not partisan.

I didn't support nor vote for any candidate.

BVAS is one of many GROSSLY inadequate tools adopted for the elections that was still poor.

Comparing elections in Nigeria between bad is like comparing how harmful your pot of soup would be if 2 drops of poison is in it Vs if 3 drops of poison is in it.

They're both poisonous.

Rivers elections for example isn't better than any election in Nigeria. And it was done with Your so called BVAS.

Karlifate:
You're clearly missing one thing:

BVAS reduced bloc votes.

Doesn't matter.

He had the lowest %. I don't mean absolute voter numbers.

He also won the least number of States by a winner since 1999 12 states.

Uniting the country is his next burden.

highchief1:
amaechi is a failure na.As a minister he didn’t attract anythg to rivers.wike go finish am I can’t wait to hear from wike.

He is peddling intimidation & violence in the state yet we are egging him on as more influencial.

We are lucky both aren't violently inclined Rivers would have been bloody.

I'm yet to see Wike's influence as a leader outside River state.

OneCandleAway:
That's what I keep saying. Once Tinubu has a grip on the presidency nobody in Nigeria can defeat him for 2027. Except maybe the US and UK intervene. He won't give a level playing field for next election like Jonathan did.

I'm suprised the north even let him win, because I wonder if they think they can control him.

He definitely can't control them.

He didn't do as well as Their (Northern) candidates in Presidential election before the merger to form APC.

He also has the poorest numbers as a WINNER since 1999 in a presidential election. No presidential winner has done < 40% of the votes.

He's hugely influential but you're overstretching it.
He benefited from Northern support hugely!

nepapole:
To me, sanwo Olu didn't have an opponent in Gbadebo and Jandor. I see no reason why he shudnt be re elected.

Whoever had voted Gbadebo use sentiment vote am ni.

So what did they (ApC) use to vote Ambode out?
Rational thought?

kokoA:
Happy hour don sure

Lol.
