Lol, a fraud that stole Anambra's $12million into a beer business that he is a shareholder, worth next to nothing - $5million.
Tinubu invested 4billion Lagos fund in Econet and made a profit of 19billion.
Zombidient, receive sense.

And then pocketed the 19billion

Eyesstone:
The mention of Okonjo Iweala can make me vote this man. Nigeria really need that woman.

Don't fall for it. This is how they do every 4 years.

ibrahimabba7:
This is indication that Buhari is not supporting Tinubu to become the next president

I thought you were supporting Tinubu

N30 billion for ostrich and monkey farm?

Just say you want to fund Atiku but I know at the end, all of it will be in vain.

Remember when I visited and stayed in Katsina, Kano, Kaduna, Niger, and Sokoto...

Those states have very large and massive land mass! Terrible heat too!

Lovely places to stay if you can behave yourself and keep a low profile.

Their economy is far better than ours down South... Food and accomodations ridiculously cheap!

If not for terrorism (which we all know is due to Northern politics of evil), that region would have been a massive relocation zone for many struggling Southerners.

Forget oil, the north is actually the richest region in Nigeria with that land mass and population but for them to reach their potential, it'll take years and a lot of hardwork.

Show me the house in Ikorodu where you're renting one bedroom for 60k, let me rent it abeg. Even self contain is around 80k.

The highest public office in Nigeria goes with some level of decorum & trust.

With all these many controversies around Tinubu, he simply does not deserve the votes of Sane & Sensible Nigerians.
His Age, Health Status, Education, Parents, Genealogy, Place of Origin, Source of Wealth, Chicago Drug Business, Muslim-Muslim Ticket, Evading Debates,... are all Questionable & shrouded in Controversy.

Quite unfortunate that he emerged as APC candidate through bribery/buying of delegates.
Else a more credible candidate would have emerged.

Tinubu understands the world really well. He's a perfect product of neocolonialism and he knows how to find the loopholes in the system to climb up the status ladder.

He's one of those firm believers of "everything has a price tag" and Nigerians come very cheap. He'll pay his way into the presidential villa and Nigerian lawyers, doctors, accountants, activists etc will help him. These same people will come online to complain that Nigeria is not good.

Massiveglory:
I dare emilokan to sue for character assasination on the forfeiture of $460K for drugs dealings involvement.

The only lies in their news was that INEC meddled into the drug matter. Everyother thing there is truth. You were involved in drugs dealings and forfeited $460K to US government.

The greatest purveyors of fake news is the tinubu gang.
Urchins have almost destroyed nairaland with lies, fake news, fake reports, misleading headings and so on.
They only gave you a taste of what you do.

This is good that they're suing. They'll only blow up Tinubu's drug case and money laundering further.

BigDawsNet:
I'm not condemning Taigo and Henderson... but the fact is that

Those two players can not even provide 15 assist each for just a single season...

So don't blame a striker when the pass and creativity ain't coming ...

It's time to stop depending on left back and right back for assist in Liverpool ..
And sign a creative midfielders that can assist, create , and score

You actually did condemn Thiago, Milner and Henderson but that's by the way.

What are you talking about the pass and creativity ain't coming? The truth is that Darwin Nunez is super fast with stamina but he's a subpar striker. Against City, he had 1v1 Ederson, perfect angle on his right foot, tried to curl I believe and he just passed the ball into Ederson's hands. I had never witnessed such incompetence. If Salah hadn't scored, we'd have lost 2 points.

A creative midfielder is not going to turn Darwin Nunez into Ronaldo overnight. He still has a lot to learn and healthy criticism will get him there.

Tactically, what Liverpool needs is not a creative midfielder. What it needs is 2 young and agile box to box midfielders like Goretzka or Hendo 5 years ago and a young CDM, nothing anchorman like Fabinho but an actual destroyer like Fernandinho, a young one.

This will give TAA and Robbo freedom up front like they use to have as they're covered properly by the box to box CM instead of TAA and Robbo crossing from halfway line because it's small leg Elliot and tiny Thiago that's their cover.

BigDawsNet:
You are a Liverpool fan but you don't fancy Nunez..

How can you condemned a player that was signed 5 months ago... and has scored 9 goals so far starting mostly from bench...

This guy has been playing with a Cracked amd Sloppy midfielders... you expect him to control ball and dribble everyone and score all by himself?

Bring haland to Liverpool and expect Henderson, elliot, Tiago, Milner to contribute 20 goals for him!!!

That’s disrespectful to Thiago and Hendo, they’re fine midfielders.

Our creative channels are our fullbacks, TAA and Robbo, who are two of the finest fullbacks in the league and they’ve assisted Salah and Mane in winning golden boots in the past and we literally have Firmino the most unselfish ST there is, I recall TAA setting up Nunez 1v1 Dier or so against Spurs severally only for him to push the ball like a novice so yes, Darwin Nunez is worthy of criticism.

Nunez is actually an advanced striker not a poacher. Examples of advanced strikers are Gabriel Jesus, Suarez, Alvarez etc. An advanced striker must have GOOD BALL CONTROL and DECENT PASSING. This is why we suffer. Liverpool cannot rely solely on poachers for goals. Darwin Nunez must be able to create goals/chances out of nothing. And if he’s going to be an advanced striker turn poacher, you must be the best advanced striker turn poacher like Haaland.

I’m sorry to say but your Winning Horse Constitution changes nothing. Ekuke na still Ekuke no matter how much you bath am.

As long as there’s impunity in the system, people will always do as they wish. You could have given your idea a bit more applicability if the punishment for failing was something greater than getting tagged as “region with failing president “

In case you didn’t notice, President Buhari is a failing president that went ahead to complete his 2nd tenure and his party is still very valid, his region still very valid with Atiku. In fact, they’re even standing on his mandate!

Let me tell you exactly what will happen. All the presidents of the regions will fail to meet quota and they’ll keep it on loop. They’ll just keep passing the failing horse around. Well at least, they’ll read online in their private jets that they’re failed presidents. That’ll show em’! Lol

The real truth of the matter is that poor Nigerians are yet to see the political class as their enemies. While you’re busy drawing up constitutions for them, the political class are tasting the future of a good Nigeria and it is very sweet and the cost is your own freedom. The only true solution to oppression is to seek your freedom BY FORCE.

The truth of why Nigerians/Africans will remain oppressed for years to come is EVOLUTION. Majority of Nigerians/Africans are docile and I’ve carried out heavy research to conclude that it’s because the motherland, Africa has never forced it’s inhabitant to lack or run for safety. We have everything we need to survive in surplus. Our forefathers never lacked and saw no threats even to greater powers. We never witnessed great, tsunamis, hurricanes or great famines.

I read Robinson Crusoe and I found that Africans had access to boats but had no reason to sail the waters but the Portuguese, Spanish and English wouldn’t stop voyaging all over the world despite the risks of death on water. It is because most of their(European) forefathers were constantly searching for food and evolution had forced the explorers out of them. Most Europeans are takers but they’re also risk takers.

It is unlike Africans to take risks, it is an anomaly. Taking risks is fighting your nature. Nigerian businessmen who exploit Nigeria don’t take risks even with nothing to lose. We’ll let the police brutalize us, we’ll let the government be evil and also give excuses for them like drafting a new constitution for the same evil people.

You can’t find your nature. The solution is to let evolution do it’s thing. In the far future, Africa will be overpopulated without food to sustain and maybe by then, we’ll also witness a new African man; one that takes risks for his survival.

Danisaint112:
Vote Peter Obi for a restructured Nigeria. Peter Obi has said he will do it one of the reason he has my vote.

Only Obi cannot do this kind of major restructuring. We the citizens have to be involved properly.

PandoraObi:

Haha I know you guys low key are for Obi but you gotta do your job. Don’t worry, collect their money and vote the right person.

It will be dishonest and a ridicule for His Excellence, President Asiwaju Ahmed Bola Tinubu, The Albert Einstein of African politics, to descend so low and stand on same podium with political prostitutes like Peter and Atiku!

If not for modern civilization, No way on Earth will Peter and Atiku would have ever stood a chance to stand 1000 feet close to His Excellence, President Asiwaju Ahmed Bola Tinubu, not to talk of having a dream to stand on same podium with A political Aristotle.

Moreover, His Excellence, President Asiwaju Ahmed Bola Tinubu, is not in anyway constitutionally mandated to attend debates or interviews, His political prowess< reach and versatility outweighs and outperforms a mere debate that lacks candidates that can match his feet's and achievements

See as you dey worship your oppressor. I know say you dey pursue their motor when they pass by for street. Eyan Uncle Ruckus.

This was his plan from the onset

Guy you are running around my questions.. how are Igbos poorly treated? They travel the most within Nigeria doing business meant for indigenes. I'm in sango right now and I'm telling you that there's a company called Neros and another one called green life but sitting next to each other, both companies are igbo owned and they only employ igbo in Yorubaland... I've given you the names of these companies now do your research and tell me if igbo would survive of other tribes start doing that..

This is the last time I’m going to quote you because you’re beginning to troll. I’ve explained in details what happened to the Igbo people during the civil war and what is currently happening at presidential level. Why wouldn’t pdp give the presidential spot to an Igbo man?

In the USA, there are black record labels that employ only black people, Korean nail salons that employ purely Korean women but it doesn’t mean Koreans don’t employ Americans back in their countries. Like I said, the government is weaponizing tribalism and you’re falling for it. Many Yoruba people work in the east for easterners. My dad did.

Seeing where you’re from, Ibadan, I’m reassured that at least in Lagos, the tribalism/hate is not that bad. You can’t grow up in Lagos like I did and say these things about Igbo people. They’re just as nice as we Yoruba people.

Remember to read those books I recommended.

MikeofAfrica:
I find it difficult understanding your point. What sin has the igbos committed in Nigeria that they need to apologize and make other tribes in Nigeria trust them ?

Are you referring to the Civil War? Is the war not a collective mistake by all the parties involved? After the war, has the igbos not shown their love for Nigeria by travelling round the entire 36 states and assisting in developing every region of Nigeria.

Are you referring to the activities of IPOB? Are their activities not similar to that of Sunday Igboho and his group in Yoruba land. So why should the igbos be held responsible for the actions of Nnamdi Kalu while the yorubas are not held responsible for the actions of Sunday Igboho?

A prodigal son will not assist his brothers in developing his land. The igbos are the only tribe in Nigeria that have settled in all parts of Nigeria and contributing to their host communities.
They have not cause any havoc to their host communities unlike the Fulanis.
They have shown more love for the Nigeria project than any other tribe .

That is enough to make them merit the presidency of Nigeria.

The worst part is they don’t want Igbo people to stay but they won’t let them leave either. I don’t know what to call that if not oppression.

Do people not see what our political/ethnic environment is for what it is? The game they’re playing? Some Nigerians don’t know Nigeria’s history at all.
Some of them don’t know that Igbo people wanted out so bad that they went to war for it but still didn’t get it and had to settle for presidency rotation and now they’re not even getting that.

Peter Obi’s one of the finest candidates Nigeria has ever produced and just for them to give him a pdp presidential ticket, his ethnicity denied him that. He had to join another party and said he’ll do it on his own.

Naturally, Nigerians who are detribalized as they say, who welcome other tribes as they say, ought to stand gallantly behind Obi for fairness but instead they turned their backs. It’s simply history repeating itself.

alanto:
You are an imposter. First of all accept that then we can move on to the next phase of our discussion.

Or you don't even need to but answer this question... When you say Igbos are unfairly treated how do you mean? Don't they get allocation like other Nigerian states? Don't they have reps and senators chosen by them to represent them, don't y'all elect your own governors? So in today's Nigeria tell me one tribe or region that's is fairly treated? Educate me... Does niger delta get to keep her oil, does SW keep her golds, oil and tax money? Is the north enjoying more education, infrastructure or security than the SE? How are Southeasterners treated unfairly? Enlighten me please

Lol you're questioning all that you believe in seeing me being so neutral about ethnicity yet I’m a Yoruba man. It's in the books, black man. Read and you'll see the bigger picture.

Now, are you genuinely asking me how the Igbo people have been treated unfairly? The government has succeeded fully in weaponising tribalism and I didn’t know. More effective than poverty.

Biafra represented the nationalist aspirations of the Igbo ethnic group, whose leadership felt they could no longer invest with a federal government dominated by the interests of the Muslim Hausa-Fulanis of Northern Nigeria. They wanted an out and instead of the government to sit down with them to discuss, they went to civil war with them using the most inhumane techniques to win said war.

Later, a retardeddd constitution was drafted and it allows for rotation of power to all the regions(which is bogus btw) and the easterners are yet to get this power or even VP like you said and instead of a round table discussion to solve this mishap, you’re talking about laughing on their grave. What’s funny about oppressing an entire region? All the regions you mentioned up there have gotten the rotation, why not Igbo people?

As much as this isn’t the right genre of discussion to be having in the first place, I’ve had to stoop low to your level of reasoning and to correct even that lowly reasoning and I cringed a lot.

Another reminder for you to read those Kwane Nkrumah books. They don’t teach us anything about panafricanism in school in Nigeria. You have to sought out important knowledge yourself.

Seriously losing faith in Klopp these days. Why was Ben Doak the left footer causing havoc on the right on the bench the entire game!!

This Doak boy go bench Salah nau

alanto:
I will even laugh on their grave... They have showed nothing but hate towards me and my kinsmen... Even ibos own SW the way we do and yoruba happen to be from SE ibos would have stopped yoruba from coming to SW by now
It's funny how you don't use the emotions when it's your people doing the typing but become human right activist when they put your people where they belong.. for many years your called Nigeria zoo, called Fulani all sorts of names, called yoruba bad and unprintable names, vow and swore to destroy Nigeria, Nnamdi Kanu said no igbo must go to Yoruba church, then he order hit on Yoruba leaders and lagos that your people benefit so much from but you never cautioned them, the same way you didn't cautioned your people when they started killing other elites in 1967 but you are quick to call someone tribalist and shit, na God go punish the hypocrite between you and me

Why does everyone assume I'm Igbo especially on NL? Is Nigeria really that full of hatred or I've been living blindly all these years. I'm a Yoruba man and I lived all my life in Lagos with Igbo friends. My closest friend is Igbo and I want him to do well so bad.
You can't select a few Igbo people who are angry and rightfully so and you use them to generalise all Igbo people and all the points you've made is just you trying to justify your oppressive spirit. No matter how you look at it, the Igbo people have been treated unfairly if you know your history and the least they deserve is a round table discussion.

In the evolution of humanity, there's something called Unity Of Purpose. It is a risk but it sets aside differences and drives the progress of humanity. Through this, you forgo ethnic background/language and focus on making your life easier together. It is what you see in USA and Europe, they have so many accents and different languages but they understand that they need to WORK TOGETHER for their own survival.

Before humanity found Unity Of Purpose, we used Unity Of Language. Unity Of Language was simply for safety because of common tongue but it was not suitable for progress. It is what you see in Africa, especially in Nigeria and our government weaponises it to oppress you and I. Funny part is this same govt people of different tribes have found Unity Of Purpose which is to loot our treasury, hence their efficiency. Igbo and Yoruba work hand in hand at Aso Rock to loot us while you're here calling names.

The truth is the government already controls everything we do but the only thing they can't control is your thoughts. You need to read old and new books about your origin as an African and you'll find the answers you're looking for. You can start with Kwame Nkrumah's books. Unchain yourself.

LegendHero:
So why is the said Innoson truck configured for people to fetch water from the truck?

In Lagos alone, there are multiple truck and vehicle assembly plant like Innoson and that doesn’t stop Lagos government from getting better fire trucks

Obi is a cheap clown. I’m sure he would have told Innoson to only build a substandard truck which explained why it brought shame to Anambra when they needed it most.

Below is a Firetruck in Lagos, can you compare this to the lorry Obi the clown commissioned in that photo?

Suffer never tire Anambra people, I’m sure when it gets to the highest level, they will start asking Obi questions on why he saved that money instead of buying better trucks.

See the way you're embarrassing yourself here. Sometimes, just siddon look, u no get talk here

alanto:
I don't understand ibo people and hate for yoruba great men... We read everywhere with proof how Atiku hasn't yet paid money used to help him get into US... I never see where person take millions of dollars do yankee visa but you guys left Atiku completely even though Atiku and his spokes people constantly attavk Obi and y'all obidense.. being cowards that y'all are you will rather attack Tinubu with lies and propaganda because he's the one y'all fear will win the election and it would be a shame that twice yoruba has come president of this country in less than 3 decades and ibos never smell VP... And we didn't even have to hate on anyone to achieve

Ughhh you sound so backward Jesus! What is this you just wrote? Twice Yoruba has become president and Ibos haven’t smelled VP? This is beyond tribalism. You remind of something from the 17th century.

I want to study people like you; extreme tribalists. I read a lot about the loyalty of tribesmen from Oyo Kingdom in 1791 to Zulu in 1816. What makes them want to fight opposition and die for their kings even if the kings would rape their wives and sell them to Europeans? I couldn’t understand it and you’re showing the same traits.

Even if you don’t read, experience should tell you that having your tribesman as a President is of no benefit to you whatsoever. And it is only the spirit of oppression passed down to you from your oppressors that will make you utter your last paragraph. Ibos feel wronged here and we’ll not let them leave and yet you laugh in their faces? I don’t understand you.

GoodLife4live:
My guy I understand u....

But we can't vote in an enemy of nigeria flag....as a president of this beautiful country....

Ipob is an enemy to Nigeria flag and Peter obi the labour party aspirant is one of their apologist

Why are you being so inhumane. Clearly, those who are agitating through Ipob or UGM feel like they’ve been cheated. They feel like they have no voice in a country they share their resources with.
Even the insecurity in the north, if you watched that BBC documentary, they interviewed the gunmen and they all explained that the reason for their behavior is hunger, that they feel neglected by the govt.
Down in the southwest, people that engage in ritualistic activities do it for money, they do it for food.
These are all different forms of agitations and there are many more.

As much as I don’t support any of these sort of activities, I believe we have to look at the bigger picture. Don’t fall for this tribal game our politicians play through media. Let’s stay united and vote wisely.

Watch NTA interview and see how they conducted themselves even though they are under immense pressure to protect the FG. See professionalism

Donjazet2:
You see many of the pro-apc accounts that are on this thread above, they are part of the APC disinformation network.

A group of accounts, paid to propagate APC talking points and attack opponents. For a long time seun the owner of this forum, has repeatedly tried to combat this to no avail.

The only way we can defeat them is to sensitize other nairalanders to their antics. When oshiomole said "4 people typing in a room". Je was literally projecting what the APC does. Employ "digital media members" whose singular job is to do the rubbish you see these accounts doing.

The only way to combat this is to sensitize other nairalanders. See this picture below as proof of what in saying.

Can you just imagine! Seun Kuti said it that these criminals will do it X10 of whatever you do. If they see that Obi can pull crowd, they’ll go and pay to mobilize hungry men and women to have a larger crowd.
Down to Nairaland likes! No wonder! I saw one post, I think it was ireportlive that said “Tinubu is showing strength and honor by not showing up to the debates” and it makes no sense obviously but I was shocked to see the likes on it. So early too.

MasterJayJay:
With your octagonal head, e be like say brain don damage. No more Osibanjo?

You really expose that guy o lol

deeva2:
Yet, you and your obi lives in Lagos state instead of Anambra.

The only reason why Nigerians migrate to Lagos is to WORK for the capitalists who exploit Nigeria through Lagos state. All of us Yoruba, Igbo, Hausa all get paid meagre wages working for capitalists and it is this wages that gives us purchasing power.

If Nigerians from other regions had the choice of where to work and live considering security, ease of transportation/traffic, serenity, Lagos will not be even your ideal choice Deeva2, hence the reason why it's one of the worst place to LIVE IN.

Your brain has immediately gone to think Tinubu is the one creating said jobs. Tell your brain to calm down. The only reason for the influx of foreign investment in Lagos is OPPRESSIVE CAPITALISM. Nigeria as a colony saw several European companies make X15 more profit in Lagos than in their parent companies with meagre pay to Nigerian workers. Some still do!
The companies can't run themselves so Nigerians from the east, north and west were forced to troop into Lagos to toil like slaves for peanuts. You can read all about it in this book 'How Europe Underdeveloped Africa'

This massive population and active economy that now gives Lagosians purchasing power in Lagos is why Tinubu can sustain projects like the BRT and all others. Feasibility studies for bus transportation systems will often show loss for the state except with a large and buzzing population. That's why most countries' bus systems are inter state for population size but Lagos doesn't need that but still if you live in Lagos, you'd see that the BRT system is not as efficient as it should be. We could absolutely eliminate the uncomfortable yellow buses and okadas but if we do that, how Tinubu won make money?

I hope you see now that Lagos has so much potential but it's underperforming.

deeva2:
You should be the one crying because Obi has always embarrassed himself on national tv.

Meanwhile, Tinubu's achievements and legacies are already speaking for him..

What achievements? You realise Lagos is still the 2nd worst city to live in the world with all the potential/history/finance it has.

PlanktonX:
If you think PeterObi supporters are forcing you to vote for credibility, then it shows the kind of person you are.

Are you okay with the way the country is being governed?
Are happy that almost all NIGERIANS are treated like nobody outside the country just because the host country know that their leaders are just looters?

Whatever your choice or my choice, the consequences are right before us.

Your choice, your future

You'd see the nonsensical reply he'll come up with.

These set of people are like the slaves that reported their fellow blacks that were trying to escape the plantation. Very oppressed with zero pride.

These set of people collect salary to push Tinubu online so it's their job. You're trying to convince him for your heart and head, he's trying to confuse you to increase his salary.

THEY KNOW! THEY ALL KNOW THEIR CANDIDATE IS A FRAUDULENT MAN. THEY KNOW OBI IS NOT EVEN IN THE SAME CATEGORY AS TINUBU. At least, we know Atiku supporters are voting along tribal lines ignorantly. Tinubu supporters are literate and know the dangers of tribalism but still choose to use it as a tool alongside corruption.

What scares me is that there are so many of them.
