I won't say it's not possible, I will only ask how it will be achieved. the last time I checked , we are not producing country. and we don't have the foundation to be yet. we need to invest immersing in education, especially in research in science and technology to produce local scientists, they will drive innovation and production.
you can't crash
dollar without producing something, maybe we will subsiding dollars, another counter productive approach.
Pat is just speaking politically, no Reasonable government will reverse Tinubu policy

Dalohad:
Because your clueless shigidi president no fit do am, no mean say another person sef no fit..

APC is full of people without working grey matter. Let them leave the stage and go watch and see how it is done.


They have wrecked Nigeria. They should leave or be pushed out.

I don't agree with your school of thought. we have many propaganda flying around from both the ruling and opposition parties so very difficult to know what's true and what's not.
critical analysing your claims, Tinubu should have forced Aregbesola to hand down through efcc, even fayemi, should I talk of Rotimi Amaechi, even Atiku and Peter Obi, I don't think he forced people to join him because it can't work, people that join him must have joined him willingly.
We can criticise,we can choose who to follow, definitely, we have right to choose who to vote for but we should also learn from them too.
Tinubu strength is not even his strategy, yes I know he prey on his opposition weaknesses and makes mountain out of it but one thing I notice from him is ability to have loyalists, I don't know how he does it, he has diehard loyalists, the 33 that are following him now are doing that because they know he will protect Thier interests.
Let discuss Peter Obi, Where are Peter Obi loyalists?
why is Okonkwo , someone with him in 2023 not with him again, why is Aisha Yesufu not as vocal as 2023?
Aisha can't back down because of shame, she would have joined another party, Peter Obi could not protect her interest.
Tinubu is still protecting the interest of Gbajamila till now. I am sure of some scandals he has engulfed himself in but the president still shielded him, loyalists are loyal because they know Thier interests will be protected by all cost.
As far as Nigeria politics is concerned, you cant succeed without loyalists

AMINDA:
Did Tinubu not use money, coercion and inducement to lure governors and other elected people from other parties into the APC? Why should any other position matter when the head is ready and willing to use our collective patrimony to ensure everyone joins his party. The same people who were forcibly coerced to join the APC will defect to the ruling party once Tinubu loses the election. He has instituted a culture of anti-democracy and anti-party, which he calls Rainbow Coalition, and he will be the biggest victim of it.

In which election in the past have you seen politician cross carpeting 3 months to election and lost?
politicians cross carpet when they see the body language of the people and besides, politicians ALWAYS influence who the people will VOTE for

EDOLUWA:
Only a foolish now will believe because politicians are cross carpeting then they will win an election. All the decamping are politically motivated, the masses that will vote are not decamping.

PBAT will win if masses still want him and will lose if masses say no to him no matter the amount of decamping now

we are very senseless in this country seriously, so Tinubu a private citizen ordered soldiers to kill at tollgate?
so if such thing happened now in Anambra, you will believe that Tinubu is unaware but Obi ordered military men to kill ?
Obi as commander of army force of Nigeria?
your foolishness is in power
Buhari was the commander in chief, he should be held responsible for whatsoever that happened in his time.
Tinubu is now the commander in chief of army force, whatsoever activity that the army do, he will be held responsible.
Atiku asking question about tollgate is his being political, why now?
why didn't he ask when it happened?
he had to wait till now?
we have a long way to go in this country our political class are inhumane, they just used our lives to play politics at will and will always give them our backing

ceejay80s:
Buhari had no business in lagos.
Tinubu ordered that shooting .
I thought they said no one died?
This country eh

2018 world cup was won by France, who won the world cup?

mecuries:
2010 world cup was won by Spain, who won the Ballon D' or? Messi. 2014 was won by Germany, who won the Ballon D' or? Messi. Why did Messi win the 2022 Ballon D' or?

we just like decieving ourselves with English.
Production subsidy not importation subsidy without any functioning refineries?
the same subsidy killed those refineries.
where will he get the money to fix those refineries?
where will he get money to build the primary health centers he is promising?
we just don't want to think on our own.
that's why Ponzi scheme still success in Nigeria.
we like too good to be true adventures alot.
if Government doesn't have money, they will end up borrowing to pay even salaries.
Tinubu problem is, he's not accountable, everything about his spending is not cleared.
He has more realistic policies but fail in transparency and accountability

franchasng:
Peter Obi's subsidy is not going to be like the old fuel subsidy, it's going to be production subsidy not importation subsidy, so get your facts correct

Most of the time, our analysis is flawed and lack logic.
1. can Nigeria boost of free and fair elections?
2. can nigeria boost of no vote buying
3. Can nigeria boost of no tribalism and religion sentiment.
if all things are equal, no vote buying, no rigging, tribalism, no religion sentiment, maybe Obi will win but seriously, all those factors will still work out in any election in Nigeria for now till we have high numbers of educated populace in Nigeria.
any analysis we are doing should be based on those factors if you want to have correct results

oshkoach:
Governors can only help to rig the elections in their respective states but not deliver votes.

A governor and all his political appointees have one vote each.

So getting governors to decamp is just an assurance that such governor will help the president to rig the election.

But Nigerians can still stop that by voting and protecting their votes.

Due to the policies of this administration, there would be no longer prosperity for an average Nigerian except u become a criminal.

Someone earning less than 300k monthly can never build or own a house in his life time and the question is what is the percentage of Nigerian earning 300k

Many people don't care about Thier blood pressure, for the fact that they can move around, they always feel they are fine. high blood pressure is silent killer

Procashtips:
Not his home staircase, rather when he went to perform shortly after performing.

Did he do that to his commissioners when he was governor?

gasparpisciotta:
Very funny.

A possible scenario, because Obi will want to impress Nigerians at all cost.

Putting undue pressure on his appointees to the extent that Obi himself will eventually get confused

As how?
I can't remember that Yoruba really cares about religion.
All the south west governors are Christians, does that mean that they are no Muslims in the south west.
Are you saying Yorubas don't have resources to stand alone?
Oil is not the only resources that can make a nation prosperous, They are just pointing out some of the issues regional government in the early years of Nigeria had and they are giving honest advise to stop them

agulion:
Unity beggars of Nigeria, the did not even say anything about the yoruba Muslims and Yoruba Christian dichotomy, yet the are busy seeing the problem it will cause in the south south and north central

He doesn't want to leave and they can't force him to.
They will bench him as much as possible

delzbaba:
It's sad how this people are treating a legend especially now that he's rival leaving on a high note

He wanted to serve the punishment not because he can't quit but it's going to dent his legacy
He will serve the punishment, play few matches and retires.
Then, he will be honoured like Messi.All footballer will pray to receive Messi treatment at retirement.
it's a great honour for match to be organised because of you. Not all players will receive that honour.
Ronaldo has contributed immensely to Portuguese football, it will be a great honour to cement his retirement with that kind of treatment.
But if he retires just like that, no one will honour him and someone like Ronaldo likes such treatment.
At 41, whether he likes it or not, the coach won't use him for all matches, the coach can honour him by inviting him to games, Ronaldo at his stage doesn't need to play before he can contribute, so dragging playing time is not necessary.
When he was in his prime, no one benched him, whether he played well or not.
Portugal is not a corrupt country like Nigeria where some are above the law.
even if their president breaks Thier law, they will punish him let alone citizen.He can't leave camp without the coach approvement no matter what happened. if he felt cheated, he would have addressed the right people rather than taking the law by his hand.

oluwaseyi0:
He doesn’t need all that as a sour end to a beautiful career

what's the reason?
will he be arrested if he doesn't go?
we just reason like a president of a country can be arrested by another country anyhow.
We have not respect if it even happens. remember not the person on sit makes the title important but the title makes the person important
if US abuses your president and you are happy, they will definitely arrest the one you like and you have no one to defend you.
Even Iran rally round their leader. if our leaders are wrong,it's good we punish our leaders ourselves then allowing other countries to do that.
shey US president can be arrested in any part of the world. if when we disagree, not to disgrace ourselves

patrickcollins:
Reason why Putin is not going is clear

Putin has not been going to UNGA, will he be arrested if he went?
He has his reason but definitely, he can't be because of drug.
USA won't stoop so low to arrest someone that came for UNGA ,

patrickcollins:
Why is avoiding UNGA meetings for 3 years

Oyo won't vote for Seyi Makinde for presidency because they know he can't win, I doubt it if they will what to waste especially when Tinubu is on the ballot paper.
I don't know what you base your result on but Nigeria politics is usually based on Religion sentiment, tribalism, vote buying, incumbency, grassroot footsoldiers and competency. you will observe that I placed competency in the last option, Nigerians dont usually vote for competent leaders so I don't usually consider it as a main factor.
Why did APC win 2023 election in the first place, was APC ruling better than PDP ruling? whether we accept it or not, APC won that election so nothing will be different in 2027 election as well.
Peter Obi and Atiku best chance was 2023 as coalition, but they missed it.
Tinubu has already created an awareness that he can't score less than 15m in the coming election because party members along are up to that and he will definitely claim more than that
So which of the opposition can boost of that number?
Mu-Mu ticket that Obi took advantage of even Obi as the only Christian candidate won't work again in 2027 because Tinubu seems not to really care about your religion in political appointments, he cares about your tribes.
Even the competency that Obi capitalise on in the last election, His constant change of mouth is casting double on his competence and Votes from Non Igbos will be reduced and I very sure igbos will vote for Obi because they feel it's Thier turn to rule Nigeria since 1999 and I think it's justifiable
For Atiku, will have upper hand in the North east and West but North is not what he used to be, for the fact that Tinubu could detail ElRufai till now without any riot in the north speak volume.
He has created tribe awareness in the north especially among the Hausa. Nevertheless, he will still win majority votes there and APC will follow.
Obi won't likely have a good outing there because he's a Christian and an Igbo man also

ImmaculateJOE:
Using the 2023 general elections results, defections, stance on Subsidy, political bigwigs, economic reality, religious and tribal sentiments. These are my projections for the 2027 general elections results for the 3 leading candidates.

NDC/OBI
Abia, Anambra, Ebonyi, Enugu, Imo, Edo, Cross River, Delta, Bayelsa, Nassarawa and Plateau States.

ADC/ATIKU
Adamawa, Bauchi, Gombe, Yobe, Kaduna, Kastina, Kebbi, Jigawa,Sokoto and Zamfara States

APC/TINIBU
Ekiti, Ogun, Ondo, Osun, Oyo, Kogi, Kwara, Niger and Akwa Ibom States.

APM/Seyi Mankinde will dent a big blow to APC/Tinibu in Oyo State because he has National assembly elections to win for his loyalists.

Battle grounds.
FCT: NDC & APC
Benue: NDC &. APC
Borno: ADC & APC
Taraba: ADC/APC
Kano: NDC & ADC & APC
Rivers: NDC & ADC & APC
Lagos: NDC & APC



Please, no insults, argue objectively.

If I said Obi will win base on tribalism too nau.
I just mentioned all the factors that influenced elections in Nigeria and my response to that man

ppogba:
" Tinubu will win SW because of tribalism" but Obi will win SE because of what?

It is always funny the way you people form sainthood when talking about tribalism. Well, the era of blackmailing is gone.

Not under this present settings a law that will affect political class will be enacted.
we should know that by now

gammarays:
The system flush isn't limited to the president. It'll affect all politicians before it trickle down. That's the new system I'm talking about.
You can't pour a new wine in an old wine skin!

I still stand on the it that he didn't go to US because he's afraid of being arrested.
US has never said he would be arrested if he enters Thier country, so why should we assume he will be arrested?
Tinubu and Macron are friends, constant traveling to France is based on friendship not on any other thing although it's wasting money too.

patrickcollins:
Tell us the usefulness of the numerous working visit to France, he is afraid to meet with other world leaders in USA but always in France on working visit.

who are the people that hate him?
Hmm, I beg you don't know how politics work at all in Nigeria.
When analysing politics in Nigeria, you must consider many factors which you seem not to consider.
you must consider tribalism, religion, incumbency even before competency.you must also consider vote buying .
you are basing your analysis on competency, which will make it fail.
in the far North, Atiku is first and Tinubu will follow closing due to religious affiliation, and vote buying, Tinubu will spend a lot of money there through the governors and his foot soldiers but Atiku will definitely win him.
in the north Central, Obi and Tinubu will drag it but Obi edged out Tinubu in the last election using religion, mu-mu ticket, People in the North Central especially in Christian won't see anything different between Obi and Tinubu based on religion affliction, so they may probably vote for Tinubu, remember Tinubu still have footsoldiers there , vote buying will definitely work there .
in the south west, Tinubu will clear it based on tribalism.
He will convincedly win Lagos, because mu-mu fear is no longer there.
Where Obi might have vote , there may be intimidation that will reduce outing of people to vote, there will also going to be vote buying, so he won't want to lose Lagos for the second time and Obi should know this.
we can see that more people register in Lagos than any other states in Nigeria, that's where the answer for winning Lagos is.
Obi will definitely win all south East state convincedly because the Igbos won't vote for him.
you see South south, they will play neutrality and want to position themselves for vice president after Tinubu and also work for themselves in 2038, but obi will still win there but you see Wike and most of the thugs in the South south will make the election very close but obi will still carry the day.
Atiku won't have any good outing in the southern part of Nigeria this time around.
Tinubu already has given an impression that he has 12m party members, which is even more then the vote he got in the last election.
so don't expect him to score less than that.
I am sorry to announce this, he has the highest chances to win.
that's just the bitter true.
But base on competency, maybe Atiku will win not even Obi, Obi is not that popular in the north even with Kwankwaso.

Hedonisco:
The only state in this list that Tinubu can manage to win outright without INEC manipulation is Ogun State.

And I use 'INEC manipulation' intentionally rather than rigging because that is the only form of rigging that can work for the immensely hated and despised Tinubu. Vote buying, thuggery, voter intimidation and other forms of malpractice will simply not be enough to deliver victory to him.

It has to be direct manipulation of votes /writing of results right from inside INEC. So Nigerians need to know exactly where to direct their fury.

Seyi is no longer a Yoruba man from south west

Akir2025:
Soludo ,Bitter Man .Hope Obi matter won't send you 6 Feets Down. How much were you Paid to Attack Your brother. Politics is indeed a Very Dirty Game .

How Many Yoruba Governor's are Attacking ztinubu .

War truly starts from ones Home indeed .

I don't agree with you, what's wrong is wrong, Soludo will definitely leave that situation, someone else will expose his ineptitude too.
Obi was boosting that he saved money while he was owing people, that's wickedness

edogu:
Sometimes, we get so blinded by hatred that we forget our purpose.

At the inception, Governor Soludo promised to turn Anambra into the Taiwan of Nigeria. Instead, what we are experiencing is a man who seems to have dedicated a significant amount of his time to vendetta, pursuing native doctors and pastors.

Maybe his fear, just like Wike's, is that if Peter Obi should win, he would be in trouble. But let him remember that he is already in his second tenure, and there is still a lot to focus on. Some of the roads his administration constructed are already in disarray.

Why can't Obi create his own party?
abi I am not getting you at all?
Did anyone stop obi from creating his own party ? he has enough followers,since obi is greater than any politician in Nigeria, I don't understand most of you guys hype,if there will be success, there should be orderliness there's no way two teams will succeed in one party

franchasng:
Dick abi Dickson is playing with fire 🔥


In fact it seems he is not prepared to succeed with the party he registered, he just wants to boss himself around to get applause from occultic followers of the occult party called APC.


He should know that if Tinubu, INEC and NASS had allowed independent candidate we demanded for to be included in the revised electoral law which would have allowed Nigerians to contest for elective positions on their own names without running under a political party, Peter Obi would have contested on his own using his name Peter Obi which is bigger than any political party in Nigeria today

Obidient Movement alone is bigger than APC the failed ruling party talk more of Obidient plus Kwankwasiyya Movement, Dickson need to lay low and enjoy the success unless he is a Tinubu's mole wasting his own time

Abi o
What has been the effect or the usefulness of the convention?
Nothing.
if US will arrest the president, I am very sure that they won't stoop so low to arrest him if he attends the convention.
if US wants to arrest the president, he doesn't need to visit USA to do that, Madura was arrested in his country.
US arrest was not because of Madura offense, it was simply because of Thier resources. why can't he be replaced through the will of the people in Venezuela since his arrest. why are then the one selling Thier crude oil?

HacheNoire:
I am glad it’s about the absence of His Excellency, President Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu (GCFR) and not about the absence of Nigeria!

We have always sent representatives and our country has never missed out or lost in the aims and objectives of the union.

Documented history? Should we revisit it? Same documented history that prosecuted and dismissed all charges against him? Are we in same page of history?

His Excellency, President Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu (GCFR) never fled the US. He spent good quality time on research and political struggle afterwards. So what history are we talking about?

Atiku’s camp should focus more on drawing a cat-fish farming business plan for their master instead of throwing low jabs that hold no weight.

I am quite aware their survival depends on how much they can fool Abubakar, but should always remember that the wages of sin is death.

Cease and desist from taking advantage of Atiku Abubakar!

And the new system will be established overnight, I just Laugh at our ignorance. let remember it's not a military president that decrees, it's democratic president.
then, you will understand why President had to give car gifts to the senators and representatives in order to have his ways.
if you dont, they are the first to frustrate the government.
remember Buhari, Buhari also faced the same issue. Buhari had to compromise when things didn't go as expected
Buhari spent over 100 days on sick bed, we won't understand many things since we are judging from outside.
The most powerful might not be the president

gammarays:
Oga keep quiet

Political machinery, political alliances and other political jargons is what's keeping Nigeria down. Here everything revolves around politics.
70% or more of the nations revenue goes to politicians which they waste.

Peter Obi is coming with a new system to cut off excessive political machinery and alliances killing the country. If He doesn't implement a new system, he failed!

religion is one of the factors responsible for poverty in Nigeria.
I saw young people praying on Monday morning when they should be at work or schools.
oya tell me why they won't be poor

Kobojunkie:
1. I don't agree! Over 400 million people are living in poverty in China, for example, and they aren't really known for being religious.

2. Poverty may be a problem today, but it was not as bad back in the 70s/80s. Yet, Nigerians allowed religion to ravage their minds to the point that you have it today.

your point of view is depraved of fact and logic.
Tinubu APC can not win all elections, you win some and losses some too, that's the quote of every legend in the game. You can't win all.
Tinubu lost even Lagos in the last presidential election, so it's nothing if he lost this one.
Every lost should teach the wise a lesson that there's still room for improvement, there are still lapses to fix.
Oyo hasn't been intimidated because Seyi was not member of APC, no record that Oyo allocation was stopped.
Tinubu is a party man , so, he should do everything for his party to win.
if he has openly supported Adeleke, don't you think that others won't feel betrayed?
And Adeleke openly supporting Tinubu can't be because of he's afraid of intimidation, he could have been silenced about it

givedemwotowoto:
Everywhere Don Blur since Adeleke won. But the new face saving propaganda is that Tinubu secretly supported Gov. Adeleke. Bla bla bla.

Yes. Adeleke endorsed Tinubu, but he (Adeleke) fought for his victory with tears, sweat and blood, and Tinubu will have to do same in Osun 2027.

Adeleke is simply being magnanimous in victory. He doesn’t want to humiliate or taunt a President he just defeated, so that nobody will blame him for Tinubu’s loss in 2027. We get the message.

Even the winner of the 2027 presidential election (hopefully Peter Obi) will visit Tinubu, thank him, and get a tour of Aso Rock. 😂

Big Lesson To Learn:
Tinubu is beatable. They thrive on propaganda, making you feel the election is won and no need coming out to vote.

Match them energy to energy. Mobilize and stand your ground, defend your votes. Follow the process all the way to the LG collation centers and scrutinize every result.

Osun people showed the perfect template. Didn’t we see threats and boasts from APC everywhere? What happened when Osun people stood their ground? They were outnumbered.

That’s what it takes to fight for democracy, else it will be destroyed right before your eyes.

who will defeat him

Bigkoko:
Biko umu nne mu, what is happening diplomatically with the much publicized appointment of Reno Omokri as ambassador to Mexico's?

CATs una don run Reno street? Now he is a full fledged BAT: neither in the opposition nor ruling service. Upon all the eye service and mumuness, na until Bulablu comot for power in 2027 naim Reno Omokri sef go resume? This kind thing no good ohhh!

If Mexico reject am, Afghanistan no dey? If Ambassadorial job don full special adviser no dey?

lol

he can as well travels abroad to go and live there.

they only enjoy thier fathers sten wealth

Brendaniel:
More like a thief who has a son that fully supports his work

if they put the same people behind bar, you guys will still criticise it that it's this , it's that.
Are you not criticising this one now?
didn't you criticise ElRufai arrest too?
Government can't arrest all politicians at once, it's not as easy as you guys look at it.
each arrest will involve court and it will take a long time before concluding the case. it's not as easy job to convict them of guits

insidelife22:
,baba falana,pls also ask them why Yahaya Bello, Ifeanyi Okowa and co are not behind bars.

since 1999, tell when the type of election you are clamouring for took place, your organic vote?
Perfect election?
we are just being delusional and unrealistic
inside Yobe, Katsina, Gombe, Ekiti, Ondo etc Obi is popular there, those one know whether obi is a man of integrity or not
you think it's everyone that is social media enthusiast?
even some that I even social media fans, they will still vote based on communal agreement, I have heard let vote for this party before
no foot soldiers to address all these and you want to defeat Tinubu with footsoldiers in all the communities in Nigeria
Tinubu with his family are working everyday, campaigning, and you think they want to depend on rigging?
if it's rigging, Remi won't be travelling from place to place to share the so call 50k
they would have just bribed the inec officials
remi went to Abia and she donated 2b for a course there
and you think those that benefited from that donation won't vote for Tinubu?
Before thugs would steal ballot papers, nothing like that again.
before governor will write result, nothing like that again because of social media, as election is ongoing, election results are everywhere on the social media, so to rig will be very difficult

Linzo:
All you have said is still pointing to rigging and nothing else. What I said is ORGANIC VOTES, NOT RIGGING VOTES

We underestimate Tinubu alot, infact Tinubu does not underestimate his opponents the way obidients underestimate him
most of you just refuse to learn anything from the past about Nigerian behaviour and attitude to election.
we saw all the by election and APC won. Yet our analysis has always gone in the opposite direction
we keep on shouting rigging anytime APC won with valid evidence. we are playing the script APC or Tinubu wants to play. we should believe that there's rigging.
Tinubu family are campaigning rigourously. Remi dey go from town to town across the country and many of us have not stepped out of our comfort zone yet we are making predictions on something we can not grasp. if rigging is possible and easy,Remi would have saved her energy and time and save the money for rigging, but not as easy as it use to be especially during this social media era.
they have to campaign to get more followers. how many village to village NDC or ADC has embarked on?
yet they keep saying Tinubu won't get 50k because they assume everybody will see things from their point of view.
It's even waste as Obi and Atiku change thier parties.Many people in the rural areas will still vote for pdp thinking they are voting for pdp.
Tinubu with his foot soldiers, it takes God intervention for him not to win

Linzo:
But let's put the jokes and banter aside.

Which state in Nigeria can President Tinubu get 20k organic votes in during the 2027 election outside the South-West states?

Nobody should mention the South-South because, here in the South-South, and Delta State in particular. Tinubu can NEVER get 5k organic votes based on the current mood of the people.

Even with rigging, he can't get up to 100k votes in Delta. The people here are not easy to fool.

Remember, election rigging in Nigeria works only on two grounds:

1. Rigging works best in your strongest stronghold.
2. Rigging works effectively only if you are already very popular.

On both grounds of electoral manipulation in Nigeria, President Tinubu falls short, except in the South-West to a reasonable extent, but not absolutely.
