Okay. I guess you're referring to a set of Nigerian voters different from the ones we saw in the rerun elections that took place two months ago.

Hehehehe... dem wan use Anambra test run the template. Last las, we all gon learn this politics together! The biggest mistake ever made by the opposition was not coming together to stop PBAT in 2023 when he was just a candidate without an office; but you see this one that he has sat down in Aso Villa as President & opposition are still going around in circles? He'll beat 'em silly, they won't even be able to cry!

Christianity EtcRe: Hallelujah Challenge Na Scam by aylipple: 3:15pm On Oct 25, 2025
Like I said before, I am not supposed to respond to matters such as these as they're not my responsibility.

You contradicted my assertion that Pastor Nathaniel Bassey's YouTube isn't monitized, labeling it false.

Well, here's my final response. If you still believe his YouTube is monitized or that he has to conceal some "imaginary" stream of income from there because "he has bill to pay and family to feed" then I'm afraid Sir, you're the one who's delusional.

Shalom!

Pythagoras001:
this is false. his youtube page is monetized but this hallelujah challlenge videos are not. the people watching it would most likely watch his other videos or donate to his projects which is not a bad thing in itself. The thing is just be honest, transparent and tell people you make money indirectly from this things. everyone understands he has bill to pay and family to feed. but it would be delusional to think he is not making money of it. finally the things people are praying for are things that would not be an issue in a proper functioning society. if nigeria was properly functioning alot of this programs attendance would be almost empty

Christianity EtcRe: Hallelujah Challenge Na Scam by aylipple: 12:05pm On Oct 25, 2025
This post smacks of crass ignorance! Say whatever you like about Christianity, Churches & Pastors but you calling Hallelujah Challenge a "scam" is peak tomfoolery.

First of, none of Pastor Nathaniel Bassey's social media pages (YouTube especially) are monetized.

Secondly, he has never compelled anyone to give; HC partners are willing, cheerful and consistent givers and none of them have come out to allege they were scammed of their hard earned money so, why are you "crying more than the bereaved?"

Thirdly, dress like your miracle is an act of faith. If you don't believe it, what's your business with those who believe it? Live and let live!

God forgive me! I wasn't supposed to respond to this but then....

I like your analysis, it has depth. Would love to read your take on the possible outcomes for SS/SE & SW.

Akpakomiza2:
Tinubu will get more votes in Benue and Kwara. Niger might be tight but with Bago's performance and with Muazu Babsngida supporting Tinubu, I give it to APC. Atiku can never win nasarawa sir for obvious reasons. With Tinubu winning over southern kaduna and Uba Sani performance and the collapse of pdp in kaduna, Tinubu should narrowly win Kaduna or lose narrowly. With Bala contesting or being running late to Gej, Atiku will struggle to win Bauchi.. Tinubu biggest win in NW 2023 was from zamfara and with governor Dare refusing to join ADC, it will be tight. Atiku won sokoto with 3000 margin due to Tambuwal incumbency. With APC in charge, Tinubu will win sokoto. Lamido has withdrawn his support for Atiku in Jigawa so Tinubu wins comfortably. Katsina is 50 50 but with the PDP almost collapsing into APC and with the emir of Daura publicly endorsing Tinubu plus the Grand burial of Buhari, Tinubu has the advantage. Yobe is tight but advantage Tinubu. There's no way Atiku can ever win Borno, no chance. Atiku won Kebbi because of the structure of senator Aliero who is now in APC. Kebbi is tight same as Taraba but if Kefas defects, APC gets Taraba. Atiku can only win comfortably in Gombe and Adamawa but with Fintiri supporting Tinubu, the margins might be close. Apart from these two states, Atiku cannot win any northern state convincingly.
Tinubu humiliated Atiku in Kano so whether RMK contests or not, Atiku has no chance here. the recent by elections showed us that APC completely owns the north

PoliticsRe: AVM SK Aneke: Profile Of The New Chief Of Air Staff by aylipple: 5:57pm On Oct 24, 2025
AVM Aneke has a very solid profile. I wish him all the best.

Meanwhile, the strategic topmost positions in the military (Defence Chief, Defence Intelligence & Air Chief) with ability to deal with the rising wave of insecurity especially in the North have been handed over to Southerners while the Army is now in the firm control of a north-central battle-tested general.

Hopefully, these changes will bring about visible and positive outcomes in the fight against banditry and terrorism.
PoliticsRe: Profile Of Gen. Waidi Shuaibu, The New Army Chief by aylipple: 5:45pm On Oct 24, 2025
Kogi (Okuns) eating good under PBAT. Prominent Okun sons are getting strategic and very important appointments under this administration - first it was Prof. Joash Amupitan (SAN) as INEC Chairman & now, Maj.-Gen. Waidi Shuaibu as COAS.

I hope these two appointees will justify the confidence reposed in them by the President and also represent Okunland well.

I wish the new COAS success.

[i]Tompolo Leads Niger Delta Pressure to Stop Jonathan’s 2027 Comeback, Urges Support for Tinubu



Source: The Bureau News
Lol. I actually want GEJ to contest so that we can test something... Personally, I believe he'll lose woefully (3rd or 4th depending on if the race includes PBAT, AA, PO, RMK & GEJ).

His entry into the race will ruin PO's chances considerably as the SS & SE are his stronghold but with GEJ running, his support base will be limited to SE and if previous presidential polls are anything to go by, you can become president of Nigeria without winning or even scoring 25% of the total votes cast in the SE.

While it weakens PO & AA's chances in the SS to the advantage of GEJ, it helps PBAT's chances slightly especially in Rivers (the Wike factor & then the Ogonis/Riverine will vote massively for PBAT for obvious reasons) some parts of Delta (Itsekiri), Bayelsa (APC has a modest support base there not to mention that the Minister of State for Petroleum, Sen. Lokpobiri will be pulling some strings there too), Akwa Ibom, Cross River (not really expecting much from here but the combination of Gov. Otu & Min. John Owan Enoh may yet come in handy) & Edo (the Okpebholo effect) will churn out those numbers.

The battle will be fought & lost in the NW & NE and with a heavy financial war chest, I don't see how the coalition plan to outspend the APC (yes, money, more than ever before, will play the most important role in 2027 that's why the most impoverished the people are, the better for the incumbent. It's the unfortunate reality, sadly.

In the NC, APC will do better than in 2023 especially in Plateau, Kogi (Kogi West people will vote massively for APC than previous polls), FCT (with Wike as Minister and knowing his type of politics, PBAT will get at least 25% here) & Nasarawa. Unfortunately for the APC, they'll most likely not get as much votes as they did in 2023 in Kwara, Niger & Benue. The party will however get 25%. I predict that P.O will do better in the NC in 2027 than he did in 2023 only difference this time is PBAT will cover some grounds.

I expect AA to win convincingly in Niger, Nasarawa, Kaduna, Bauchi, Zamfara, Sokoto, Adamawa, Jigawa, Kebbi, Katsina, Yobe & Borno. It'll be a close contest between him & PBAT in Taraba & Gombe. Kano is too early to call as RMK's yet to decide if he'll be working with PBAT or he'll be running again; if the former, APC will win Kano with a moon slide but if the latter, PBAT & AA will have a photo finish of course, behind RMK. However, with the financial war chest at APC's disposal, PBAT may just weaponize the poverty prevalent in the North to his advantage.

In North - depending on states won - AA will come tops, followed closely by PBAT (all thanks to the better outing I predict APC will have in Kaduna esp. S/Kaduna, Plateau, Kogi, FCT, Taraba, Bauchi esp. S/Bauchi where Rt. Hon. Dogara hails from) then GEJ, PO & RMK.

In the SW, I predict that PBAT will have a better outing than he did in 2023 then followed by either GEJ or PO then AA & RMK.

Overall, I predict that GEJ & PO will either come 3rd or 4th in no particular order. The real contest will be between AA & PBAT.

The Tinubu administration is one helluva strange one; they'll put the cart before the horse then start pondering 🤔 why things or Nigerians are groaning.

Shouldn't they have sorted the modalities for use of these imported tractors before they arrived such that immediately after "cutting the tape", they're deployed? Why should its use be dictated by the Presidency per Guardian Newspaper report?

While Sen. Abubakar Kyari himself too can't escape taking some of the blame (man has literally abandoned his work as Minister to focus on his purported governorship ambition in Borno).

TravelRe: Rwandans Say ''Nigeria Is The Giant Of Africa And We Love Them!'' (Video) by aylipple: 5:14pm On Oct 20, 2025
I watched for the first 3 minutes and I was actually impressed; that guy the interview started with represented Rwanda very well! Guy has explored more Nigerian foods than actual Nigerians themselves.

On the flip side, I think we (Nigerians) don't travel enough especially within Africa and we don't read enough about the rest of Africa & Africans. I'm not sure if it's the economy or our lack of interest in anything/anyone outside Nigeria (maybe 'coz we've got too much problems of ours to be bothered about what/who doesn't concern us directly).

Aside the well-known Rwandan genocide & how clean and beautiful Kigali is, I doubt up to 70% of Nigerians (yours truly inclusive) know anything else about that country. Those who say "traveling is education" or something like that didn't lie.

Both states aren't only investor-friendly (they're friendly to investors who are law abiding not those who break the law in the name of "investment" and when the law turns around to bite 'em in the ass they'd start emotional blackmails), they're strategically positioned.

blamingthedevil:
Can Mr. Massad Boulos empty his pockets first? I want to check for agbado🌽. Lol.

Coming from a senior U.S Presidential Advisor, this is huge statement of support for the Nigerian Government's stance that there's no genocide against Christians.

Meanwhile, only those who are yet to get over 2023 & who are looking for a backdoor entrance into Aso Rock in 2027 are parroting the unfounded allegation that Boko Haram/I SWAP/Lakurawa/Bandits are targeting Christians mostly.

Ask them, those being killed by UGM/ESN/IPOB in the Southeast, were they killed because they're Christians? Why's it only the killings in the North that's being given a religious connotation? Also, why has Atiku, Pantami, El-rufai, Amaechi, Aregbesola, Obi and other members of the opposition maintained a suspicious silence over these allegations that appear to be sponsored by foreign elements?

Naturally, Atiku, El-rufai and Pantami et al being Muslim northerners and who should know better ought to have rejected this narrative but because they're silently hoping PDTJ would do an "Obama" on PBAT, they're indifferent. They also don't want to appear to Southern Christians as religious bigots. Also, they don't want to be reminded of the stance they took or didn't take when Deborah was brutally killed by religious extremists in Sokoto for alleged blasphemy. For Amaechi, Obi & co., they'd not want to risk appearing to their Southern brothers as pandering to the Muslim north; either ways for these groups of politicians, silence is golden to them.

aylipple:
That number is guaranteed to swell further with the impending defection of Senator representing Kaduna South, Sunday Katung, joining the APC any moment.

Then, APC will see its ranks further rise with the soon to be made public defections of Governors Agbu Kefas, Duoye Diri, Caleb Muftwang, Abba Yusuf and Simi Fubara respectively. Governors Dauda Lawal, Ahmadu Fintiri & Ademola Adeleke will eventually dump PDP (the latter likely to do so after his reelection) but while Lawal may likely want to join the ADC, the others may likely join the ruling party.
