SeeWahala: Hehehe 🤭 aswani, you have so much strong opinions expressed MOSTLY towards/concerning Peter Obi for the past year on this nairaland that I have personally witnessed 😏 . . . Permit me to ask you a DIRECT question concerning the statement in this your post above ☝️
aswani, Who is your own MESSIAH in Nigeria's political sphere as at today the 1st of Jan 2026? 🤔
Who will you vote for? WILL YOU VOTE AT ALL? 🧐
I go after others, you either don't see it or don't want to.
Even though it is admittedly invigorating and pleasing when I see some Obidients almost kpai themselves when I just whistler Peter Obi. Dat wan dey sweet my belle, nor bí small, I nor go lie. Small, albeit (very) fulfilling payback for Obidients ganging up to bully me, chikena.
Anyway, I will vote but it won't be for the usual suspects old cargo political class like President Tinubu, Vice President Atiku or Peter Obí.
SeeWahala: So, aswani . . . You want to 'Preach to the Choir' this new year abi? 🧐
Happy new year to you too 🤗 just know that as you keep leaving every other politician to focus your bile and attacks on Peter Obi alone lots of people like myself will also subconsciously throw you into the APC RoNu e-minions Camp
Peace ✌️
How am I attacking him again? Are those parties he is moving to on the opposite sides of the political spectrum or not?
Can you be a Republican, then a Democrat, then a Republican again. Where is that done anywhere in the world?
I know he is your messiah but we can still call out the where-belle-face nature of his politics.
Rufai Oseni also questioned why a minister known for his bold public persona would avoid a live interview with journalists who regularly engage top government officials.
Even Oseni get mout, his only game is making outrageous, unguarded statements to goad people and then when they rightfully turn on him, spreads his arm out and say, "what did I do"?
Wike will chew him and spit him out like tobacco in less than a minute.
Also, OP, do you know that Simon Ekpa's Biafra Govt in Exile also drew this same map and had the nerve to form a cabinet of ministers with Simon as the PM and in that cabinet not one single person from same SS got an appointment ?
At least they should have made at least an attempt to include phantom minority people in their cabinet but true to typical Ibo arrogance and ethnic chauvinism and nepotism, they didn't even care to do so.
Finally here is a quote from Nnamdi kanu in one of his many rants from radio Biafra which he stated thus:
'' Niger Delta people are fools. The whole of SS is our territory and anybody that opposes us must be killed ''
You be the judge.
I didn't even notice the cabinet thing, can you imagine such a clear pointer to how things would be run?
I saw a video of a silly woman listing all the provinces and her silly followers cheering each name, they actually put about three Igodomigodo provinces there, Esan, Afemai and one other.
After they will be crying that Nigeria should let them have their Biafra, bia, since when has Urhobo, Afemai and Esan being Biafra.
Longer throat to the nth power, dem never set up dere country, dem don dey start dere expansionist mission.
naptu2: Albeit there are three power blocs in the ADC formation: the Atiku bloc formerly sabotaged within the PDP, the CPC/Buhari bloc sidelined and hounded out of APC and the Obi bloc infiltrated out of LP.
Per the bolded as I am genuinely interested to further my knowledge of Nigerian politics, who are the people in this Obí bloc?
The other two bloc's I can see but Peter Obi came over without Datti and Otti. Is it Kenneth Okonkwo that is considered part of the bloc or Aisha Yesufu or the Oseloka Obaze fella?
Are they political heavyweights or medium weights even to be considered a bloc?
I know Obidients are a bloc of some sort, SM bloc I guess, but none of them will be seating around a table with any cards in their hands when serious discussions are being held in ADC. This classification includes the names I mentioned above so what bloc exactly are they?
funshint: So the Oba watched as this assault was taking place right within his palace and said or did nothing?! That was a crime scene and the Oba cannot in anyway dissociate himself from this.
Why not watch the full video instead of having a totally false understanding of what happened and making pronouncements based on it?
Rayzoom: What exactly was his crime? So wishing edo people to live long and prosper is now a crime to you, even Oba himself distance himself from such shameful act and here you are upholding it, according to your argument, Oba alone should live long while the rest of Benin people die young?
Have you put onto context how and where he said it? Watch the video to know Don Pedro knew what he was doing.
Godwin Uhundan that was pumping him up, why didn't he himself go to the same Benin.
dederocs: People don't respect the Oba for nothing, his bloodline were great men doing great things thousands of years ago, even before the British empire the Benin had an empire.
What state are you from?
Can you tell me one great feat your tribe or state is renowned for?
I will give you a list of the greatness of the Benin people.
1.In the 1974 edition of the Guinness Book of Records, it described the Benin City walls as the largest earthwork carried out before the Mechanical period. Part of the walls were believed to be about 65 ft (20 m) tall. The ancient walls in the Benin Kingdom were transformed to the access point or gates to the city.
2. 1. Benin(Edo) Bronzes🇳🇬: A collection of bronze plaques and artifacts from the Benin Empire, valued at over $1 billion. 2. Great Hymn to Aten🇪🇬: An ancient Egyptian hymn inscribed on a stone stele, valued at over $10 million..
fergie001: Excerpts from the Ex-Anambra Governor's address on his defection to ADC
We have now seen people who benefitted from our democracy be part of those celebrating electoral flaw, publicly and we are now saying those planning to rig election in Nigeria come 2027, we will resist it by any means lawful and legitimate.
Peter Obi
Hopefully Cynthia Okeke pays attention.
Also why didn't Peter Obi bring proof of rigging in 2023 to the court?
AMINDA: APC cannot aggressively campaign with "Southerner" or anti-fulani campaign against Atiku unless they are willing to ditch the muslim-muslim ticket and go all out for the South because doing so will further cost them Northern votes. It's the reason why the middle-belt will still be splitted almost equally. The Southeast only need to deliver half the votes Obi got in the last election and ADC will be home and dry. Tinubu/Southwest only delivered 2.3m votes in the APC merger and they gained a lot from it, to the detriment of the other South.
If you're talking sheer numbers, Atiku got 6.9m mostly Northern votes in 2023 at a time when the loudest voices in the North were leading the campaign for power to head South. The North also gave Tinubu 5.6m votes out of his total 8m votes that ensured his victory. The same North gave Kwankwaso 1.4m votes as all his votes were from the North. Even Obi got over 2m votes from mostly the Northern minorities. This was despite the slight voter apathy in the North in 2023. Numbers don't lie.
I think theres some overcomplication here.
ADC: NE, split NW with APC, then SE or split SS based on VP slot
APC : NC, SW, split NW with ADC then SS or split SS based on ADC VP slot
It will be closer than the 2 million difference of last time.
I do forsee APC and ADC nearer the elections making a huge play for SS as that's where is presently in play.
OredoPikin2: The defection of Peter Obi, former Governor of Anambra State and the 2023 Labour Party presidential candidate, into the ADC coalition has effectively kicked off the race for the 2027 general election.
The big question now is: who are the gladiators within the ADC, and who are the likely presidential candidates to emerge?
At the moment, it is difficult to dispute the fact that the contest for the ADC presidential ticket is shaping up primarily between Peter Obi and Atiku Abubakar (with all due respect to Rotimi Amaechi).
Major Power Blocs Within the ADC Presently, the ADC appears to be made up of three major blocs:
1. The Obi Bloc
2. The Atiku Bloc
3. The CPC Bloc (largely made up of former Buhari-aligned politicians)
Possible Presidential–Vice Presidential Permutations Several combinations are already being discussed within political circles:
Most Talked About 1. Atiku / Obi – This is the arrangement some APC elements want the public to believe has been agreed upon, but for now, it remains speculative.
Strong Possibilities 2. Obi / Aminu Tambuwal 3. Obi / Nasir El-Rufai 4. Obi / Rabiu Kwankwaso – This is dependent on whether Kwankwaso eventually aligns with the coalition.
The Big Question Given the current alignments, internal power dynamics, and regional considerations, which combination is most likely to emerge as the ADC ticket for 2027?
Kindly drop your opinion in the comment section
There is no Obi bloc.
The ADC ticket is Atiku and Amaechi.
I forsee some treachery happening at some point, leading to a group of people leaving, but not sure in what form yet. I might articulate that later

Nutin spoil, ṣebi Peter Obi joined ADC today, if he wins the primaries and elections, he too can load up with Ndigbo, nobodi mus say pim.
Predictor3: 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 The elder statesman omitted the part where Awolowo wanted a secession clause in our constitution and Azikiwe and the North fought tooth and nail to stop it.
Not the North, Ahmadu Bello agreed With Awo who proposed it, Owelle was the one that vetoed it.
Also Ikemba nabbed Adaka boro who wanted to secede the delta from the Federation. Now Ndigbo are all for secession, see life.
