According to the 66-year-old statesman, there are only two parties in Nigeria – the PDP and the All Progressives Congress.

He also said frustrated youths are using Obi, a former Anambra State governor, as a symbol, adding that youths should not make decisions on the presidential candidate to vote for in anger. Obi had left the PDP in May and emerged as the Labour Party’s presidential candidate.

Thank God I am not part of the so called frustrated youths. These politicians nor get good words for mouth.

Where are the buses?

I thought his wife was a ceremonial one

That Jonathan snapped with him doesn't mean he supports or endorses him. Courtesy demands he receives him and listens to whatever he wants to say. Jonathan is no longer bitter, he has moved on.

I never believed the day Tinubu will go to meet Jonathan will come. He can read the writing on the wall that people don't want him.

Which people? Speak for yourself. I want him

Isrealis are visiting Èmilókàn. Is there something we are missing? I know that Israelis have not had stakes in Lagos development before now, so when and how did they come into the picture now?

If it's China now, I will not think too much. Israelis coming into the picture will be necessitated by things like security (the Israeli mossad), and maybe militarily.

I expect them to have an ally in Jewish South East Nigeria than in the North or the South west.

But one can never trust all these international politics. It's all for the interest of their own country, acclaimed community of Jewish ancestry be damned.



@ the bolded.

But the allegation is that Obi had no soft spot for IPOB when he was governor, to the extent that many bodies of murdered IPOB members were thrown into one of the rivers in Anambra state during his time as governor.

So if those allegations are anything to go by, how is it possible that he himself is IPOB?



They will likely also visit other major contestants viz: Atiku and Peter Òbí. So dont be hasty to conclude.



Tinubu also has his own supporters as Peter Òbí does, so you can't generalize that Nigerians don't want him

As far as I know, the most unwanted personality in Nigeria today is Buhari and for valid reasons. His notoriety though is what is rubbing off of Tinubu now by virtue of being in the same political party. And even though I'd have preferred Osinbajo over a very elderly Tinubu, Osinbajo too irrespective of his great qualifications and six months exemplary performance as acting president would have had the same rejection from some Nigerians as BAT now has by virtue of political party.

Now this is sense and balance. I pray for more of you. You talk with reasoning

Why is he always the very first point of call?

The parents should go and develop their yansh.

In time like this, anything is permissible. They should remember to digress a little to sell their own candidate. Las las e go cast. BAT for president.

He won't say anything. He is a thief too. He just wanna put Atiku under his armpit and the Oldman is wrestling with him. Wike is a drowning man, he is looking even a straw he can hold on to. His London meetings didn't go as planned.

Makinaki:
Big masquerade only dey show up for big occasion na.

That's a wrong approach by him. Feeling too big for the people you want to govern. No nice. I know deep down that man is hale and hearty but doing some mouth agape underground work that will numb some people.

The landlocked region in Nigeria wasn't properly linked but Niger. Nawa o

It is as if Tinubu has pride rhe way I am seeing it. He only comes out for the big occasion. Over confidence is not good baba.

alsudan:
Tinubu na real place holder for this terrorist ooo.

See the man everywhere already and it’s just consultation season.

Which supposed VP Candidate of any other party is all over the place like this Boko Haramite?

For All inclusive government to be enthroned all hands must be on deck. This VP will be active

The guy has bigger plans.

youngdave78:
why people just dey lost for Lagos?

The place is too big

Overconfidence will finish this Tinubu.

Was this not the same Haller that was on fire in last Season's champions league? Oh! Terrible

LMAO they guy go shock na. No more peace

What if she's truly missing?

Then she dey your house.

RIP brother. See the yansh on those vagina creatures in the third picture

blazingblender:
Hmmm Rip to the dead
All this truck driver and speed ehh

My brother not only speed. These people are devilish they use human and small cars as shield whenever they lose control. Instead of them to divert to the bush or any barrier they face people head-on

Mufakirnaqdiun:
Glad it's a joke because you own no one,make una dey put am for mind.
If you think paying a lady's bride price mean you can use her the way you want then you must be a fool.

Marriage is about partnership. You're equal. No one owns anyone,
A man who thinks he owns you is not a man to have a relationship with. Plenty of men are looking for a partner. Look for those men.

Lastly ladies abeg make una still dey observe before getting into a relationship with an animal,Dem full ground lurking around,and once you see sign abeg exit the marriage before it's too late,no make any body advise you to keep suffering there.

Nonsense talk. How much did the bride's family paid the groom's family if it were partnership? It is partknackship my friend.

Yorubas rejected Obasanjo, yet Igbos massively supported him in 1999, so?

You can't compare Nigeria of 1999 to today's Nigeria that has been badly balkarnised and fragmented on religious and ethnic lines. Who told you that me as a person won't vote for an igbo man. Should Okadigbo reincarnated and contest election against my father, I will vote him.

franchasofficia:
Even before 1999, Yorubas have been screaming that AN IGBO MAN WILL NEVER RULE NIGERIA, and they wickedly believe that after North rules and its the turn of the South, that it should come to the Yorubas and if after Yorubas have done several tenures it comes back to the South again, it should go to Niger Delta because of crude oil to avoid them cutting off the crude oil making Yoruba and North to die on top Nigeria matter. To an average Yoruba man, Igbos don't deserve to rule Nigeria yet when Igbos seek to secede from Nigeria, Yorubas are always the first to attack and call them derogatory names, isn't that the highest form of inhumanity of man to fellow man?



Ordinarily, should any Yoruba man or woman be contesting for 2023 Presidential elections if Yorubas were honest and just in their reasoning? Even as some respected Yoruba elders and statemen are shouting it that it is the rightful turn of Igbos to produce the next President, instead majority of young Yorubas who ought to be the ones championing a new united South that will be pioneered by love, sincerity and inclusiveness are the ones insulting the Yoruba elders telling them the truth that it is Igbo's turn to produce the next President but later they will say Yorubas respect their elders just because they prostrate on the floor to greet them, but will never respect the counsel of their elders.




Nature will reward us all for our deeds here on earth, good or bad, that's my prayer.



Whatever Igbos wish Yorubas may it befall them and whatever Yorubas wish Igbos and Igbo land, may such befall them! That's all

What is wrong if the Ndigbos have a united front and consult relevant sides on the need to project an igbo president for once and see how it pans out. You talked about Yoruba this yoruba that against the Igbos. Have you see or seen where the yorubas converge just to delibrate on how to hate and spite Igbos. It is an individual thing but rubbed on the entire yorubas. Meet and average yoruba man he will tell you why we should have and igbo as president for a change. In a situation whereby a position comes n you have 10s of people jostling for it from the same region other regions won't take them seriously. If LP has been selling ideas and prospects to Nigerians and shift the focus from Tinubu, a whole of us will see reasons to galvanized support for the party and its candidate because we are all tired.

If we continue like this neither sides will have it. The power will go back to the North and in Atiku, meehn! It will be too messy. We can keep wishing ourselves bad things, it is we outside the corridors of power that will suffer it.

Collins4u1:
Oga you're not normal.. Which young igbos are you talking about.
Now an average young Igbo man does not benefit anything from tinubu, he does not sponsor nor feeds them, it is safe to say that they have no idea that he exists.

The only problem everyone has with tinubu is that he enthroned someone that made the country a mess, now he wants to take over from him, was he not advising the president while he was ruling or giving him ideas on how to make the country better.

No, he wasn't. He was shut out. Buhari walked over us all.

franchasofficia:
What stopped Yorubas from voting for Ogbonnaya Onu, Nnamani, Dave Umahi, etc in sure banker ruling party APC this year?


Make una continue, Amadioha and Sango are watching all of una and seeing una dark hearts, time will tell

Igbos self didn't vote the ppl u mentioned. Nigeria political atmosphere is a slippery terrain. The moneybags hold sway. Don't stress us the more with amadioha and sango, these two affects average n poor ppl.

Abdu81:
To be honest obi's presidency have suffered much media onslaught from the YORUBAS than from any other source, those who are supporting obi cannot be silent.

REMEMBER THE OBI TUARY ARTICLE IN THE FRONT PAGE OF A NATIONAL DAILY.

it remained the most damaging work for candidate and his peoples in 2023 race.

Guess what it was written
by a yoruba man.
Sponsored by a yoruba man.
Publish by a yoruba man.
By a media firm of a yoruba man.

The only purpose of that article is to destroy obi's ambitions not because he is not qualified or competent but his only sin is being an Igbo man.
How dare he dream of ruling rather being ruled?

Who are selling this evil idea to other tribes and ethnicity in Nigeria?
The Yorubas.

Igbos will never rule Nigeria from the YORUBAS
Obi is ipob from the YORUBAS
Obi is Biafra from the YORUBAS.
Obi is Igbo agenda from the YORUBAS.
Obi a Christian agenda from the YORUBAS.
Obi is liar from the YORUBAS.
Obi is working for Atiku from the YORUBAS.


Tell me why are the obidients not attacking atiku and the north.
If you attack them they attack you back.

Nothing Goes for nothing. You guys started insulting the sw and the person of Tinubu the moment he indicated interest in contesting for president even b4 obi jumped ship. You are a liar, a very definition of lie. You expect Tinubu's supports ti keep quiet why you guys go on the offensive against him. It is tit-for-tat. The only candidate that has suffered the most is tinubu, you guys have photoshopd him wee wee on himself, being held to stand, called him 89,98yrs, tagged him bobo Chicago and the list is endless. If his supporters are not issue based and mature there would have been pockets of violence everywhere . How people tell lies n maintain a straight face beats me.

Many people, especially Yorubas have been wondering why most Igbo youths dislike Bola Ahmed Tinubu.


Let me tell you the truth, Igbo's dislike for Bola Tinubu has nothing to do with him being a Yoruba man, it rather has more to do with Bola Tinubu's personality and political lifestyle or will I say political adventure.


Don't let history twisters deceive you, majority of Igbo youths loved and believed so much in Chief Awolowo more than they even cherished Dr Nnamdi Azikiwe who happened to be an Igbo man. That was the reason why a group of young Igbo officers decided to take it upon themselves to carry out the first Nigerian military coup of 1966 just to help Awolowo in his political travail at that time, even though they allowed ethnic sentiments to derail their original mission during the coup execution.



One thing about Igbo youths is that if they believe in you, they will fight and defend you till death. This can be seen in how they stood solidly behind Ojukwu, stood behind Goodluck Jonathan even after defeat, stood solidly behind Gabon President, stood behind Donald Trump, stood behind Nnamdi Kanu even in jail. Igbos are diehard supporters once they believe in you. They stood solidly and fought for Atiku Abubakar when they believed in Atiku but left when they discovered Atiku was rather becoming over ambitious and not wanting to reciprocate the love Igbos gave to him when Southeast needed his support the most.

The sacarsm and satire in this post got me laughing with teary-eyes. Op you deserved a big award. I saw what you did there.

SaiOba:
You guys are the ones that started all this up at the 1st place. Your problems are always with whatever Peter Obi or LP does. You all called labour party a structureLESS party waling up and down, called Peter Obi a twitter president. Even in Nasarawa, the governor said that Labour Party is structureless in his state that it's just a 2 horse race between APC and PDP, then the OBIdient Nigerians tested their mic and we all saw the organic support. The APC did theirs and it was a shame to behold.. ever since then the state governor has been hiding his face in shame. The midget from Kaduna Hell Rufia also dared and when he saw that he would be embarrassed, he used the state police but nevertheless what's gonna be, gonna be.

Yesterday, the 27th was 100,000 youth March for Tinubu in Lagos. They saw no-one, not even 10 people. Now, we all know who is the media President and the twitter president.

Now, y'all are shifting the goal post saying Peter Obi is going to step down for Atiku,, I wonder how y'all think.. I repeat Peter Obi will never step down for Nada and I am saying this in a polite way. He, Peter Obi respects every other Presidential candidate but believes he will do a more better job than them. So let's remove religious, regional, tribal sentiments and vote Wisely.

We all need a more better Nigeria and it's NOT too late.

Mehn! I was almost seeing resons with you but with the bolded I go just dey my lane. There are too much lies on this country. How ppl lie and still maintain a straight face beats me
