An avenue for Obidients to wail yet again. They never disappoint

Obidients in tears

The king of the North. Next President from the North kawaii.

Obiedun:
This is not agbari ojukwu but Koko irin. Koko irin simply mean metal pot

You are right. My mother sold household utensils in her younger days. Agbari ojukwu is usually painted black. And it looked like a soldier's helmet. The type we see british army wear in war movies. This is koko iron.

isan:
They'll probably blame Yoruba people again 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 confused people

No! Na gofment cause am

Emotions emotions emotions

PO is truly a brand. He is mentioned in most threads on nairaland. A private citizen is more discussed than state policies and the sitting President.

Euphemism for failure

Apology to Aisha Buhari, by Farooq Kperogi

“Although I absolutely should have foreseen it, I honestly didn’t anticipate the profoundly painful consequences that my July 16 Facebook update titled “Aisha Buhari, Divorce, and Forgiveness Claim” would have on former First Lady Mrs. Aisha Buhari and people closest to her.

It’s one of the worst and cruelest lapses of judgement I have ever committed in my life, and it has been a source of unfathomable personal anguish for me these past few days.

My source, whose integrity is unimpeachable, insists the information is accurate, but never intended for it to become public. Going public with the information was an error on my part, as not every well-sourced information is for public consumption.

On the other side, Alhaji Sani Zorro, former SSA to the First Lady on Public Affairs, whom I hold in the highest esteem, has reached out to question the accuracy of my claims.

I will not contest the particulars and veracity of the information with Alhaji Sani who conveyed the former First Lady’s position that her marriage was intact. After all, as the late MKO Abiola memorably said, no one can give you a haircut in your absence.

Clearly, Mrs. Buhari herself has the ultimate authority and right to define the status of her marriage with her late husband. Her truth should be respected as supreme, whatever other facts may exist.

Moreover, the truth of this information is now far less significant than the hurt my disclosure of it has caused. I shouldn’t have shared it publicly. Period. Doing so violated every moral and ethical principle I cherish and uphold. But it shows I am only human, an imperfect human.

I realize it might be impossible for many to believe (except those who truly know me) that I acted without malice, ulterior motives, or external influence. But I sincerely did not intend to harm Mrs. Buhari or execute any personal vendetta.

To Mrs. Aisha Buhari, I offer my heartfelt and unreserved apology for the needless and deeply regrettable hurt I have caused. I am truly sorry.”

His Excellency Monday ride on Edo boys are with you all the way. If he like let him come we go show gbajue sege

Obi is now an item and a willing tools for every Tom Dick and Harry. I'm sure he is confused with the breaking of this news. Many Obidients would see Obi as weakling if this news continues to drag on. Obi's political ambition might be ruined before 2027.

Why are Obidients crying and gnashing teeth over a brewery

oluseyiforjesus:
This is wat Ondo state could have been enjoying if not for one greedy former governor

We would love to hear about it. It would have indeed help the state. Too many bad roads.

Who told you that dieing at an old age is a blessing? Mad and foolish people also live long. Many great people died at "young" age. It's the life you lived (legacy) and your standing with your maker that count.

Shey Regina Daniel never dump Christianity for Islam too?!

Noooo that one no matter

Saying Peter Obi will be President in 2027 is akin to forecasting the the second coming of Jesus Christ

Yet you are not desperate to be President abi? Dey play.

SE no longer want biafra ni? But anyway this is probably a fake news. Buhari did 8 years North Central did not call for a 50-50 cut as they themselves have never produced a president. SE should wait till 2039.

This warrilawyer can use the lagoon if TVC has hurt his feelings. AriseTv will carry the news

Fake news for fake people. This blogger will be fished out to replace Ijele Speaks who appears to have gained freedom some moments ago

The Andrews Liver's Party have lost a tooth yet again 🤪

But Atiku is no longer there? Why the unending crisis?

Scammers.. this one burnt their fingers. A new scam is POssible 😂😂

They quickly dropped it like hot amala One of them up above is looking for awa wi to control the damage.

They are beginning to get on a wild goose chase like in 2023

On a cloudy, seemingly ordinary day, a mysterious stranger arrived in a quiet village plagued by an unusual problem—rats. They roamed the alleys, invaded homes, and lived without fear. Then, everything changed when the stranger made a stunning declaration in the village market: “I’ll pay \$100 for every rat.” At first, the villagers were skeptical, but soon curiosity turned to action. The man paid cash, and the village erupted into a frenzy of rat-catching. Every nook and cranny became a target in a wild hunt that united everyone in pursuit of the new ‘gold.’

Days later, the stranger returned with even more enticing offers—first \$200 per rat, then \$500. The village descended into a kind of delirium. People stopped sleeping, dreams were filled with visions of rats turning into riches, and every thought revolved around capturing the next rodent. Eventually, there were no rats left. The villagers had cleared every last one, and just when they thought it was over, the stranger announced he’d return in a week and pay *\$1,000* for each rat—leaving his assistant to guard the collected ones.

That’s when the real trap was sprung. The assistant, whispering in corners, offered to secretly sell a few rats back for \$700 each. Panic and greed collided. Villagers sold their jewelry, mortgaged their homes, borrowed heavily—desperate to profit from the next sale. But once all the rats were bought back… the assistant disappeared. So did the stranger. They never returned. The villagers were left with debt, rats, and a painful lesson: not every opportunity is what it seems. In a world ruled by greed, those who fail to think clearly often end up paying the highest price for a well-dressed illusion.

This man is not only irredeemable but a complete ediot ...

yeah just like that man you call ffadda

themanderon:
Yes you are. After grabbing and running away with power only for you to make mess of it. Your underbelly has been exposed. I kept telling people that Tinubu was a failure as governor and that Fashola and Ambode and then Sanwo Olu were the ones that actually performed. Now he has gone to the national level to expose his failures. I never thought we would see a more pronounced failure of a president than Buhari but here we are.

Fashola Ambo and Sanwo were his proteges. Show me one of Gbajue's?

PBAT a man with a thick skin. A man like Aristotle. God bless me the way you bless him.

Fake news. I checked the source and I discovered it didn't sauce

*FORGOTTEN HEROES WITHOUT CAPES.*

*As important as this story stands in the history of our nation's struggle for democracy it is a shame that not many of our teenagers* *know much about it. There is no better day to put the story out than today the June 12th*

*On October 25, 1993. Four (4) dissatisfied Nigerian teenagers hijacked a Nigerian Airways airbus A310 that was flying from Lagos to Abuja* *and diverted the plane to Niamey, Niger Republic.*

*They were dissatisfied by the annulment of June 12* *elections by the military Head of States, Gen Ibrahim* *Babangida.*

*The young Nigerians, Richard* *Ogunderu* *was 19, Kabir Adenuga was 18, Benneth Oluwadaisi was 20 and Kenny Rasaq Lawal 19.*

*They were* *students of Federal University of Technology, Akure (FUTA).*

*They all unassumingly boarded the flight at MMA alongside other passengers.*

*About 16mins before* *landing,* *they waited until the pilot announced that passengers should fasten their seat belts and prepare for landing. Next thing the* *passengers heard was:👇🏼*
*QUOTE*
“ *Ladies and gentlemen, this plane has been taken over by the Movement for the Advancement of Democracy.* *Remain calm, we will not harm you. You will be told where the plane will land you. You do not move or you die”.*

*END OF QUOTE*

*The leader of the hijackers, Richard Ogunderu a 19 year old, walked into the cockpit and seized the process, and* *then one other followed. Two remained to watch over the passengers. When he got to the cockpit, the pilot knew immediately this was an* *attack, so he had to obey instructions given to him.*

*Ogunderu then asked the pilot to divert the aircraft straight to Germany. The pilot convinced him the plane did not carry sufficiently fuel to crossover the Atlantic and* *then suggested they divert to a nearby country, Niger or they will crash and everybody dies.*

*The two hijackers told the pilot what they wanted was where they could give publicity to their reason for* *the hijack. They told him they wanted Germany, because they could have a good press coverage that would support their democratic cause for* *Nigeria. But that couldn’t happen because of the fuel shortage.*

*They agreed to land in Niamey, Niger Republic. Upon landing the hijackers found themselves surrounded by hundreds of armed Nigeriène* *soldiers at the airport. They had earlier distributed their demands in a pamphlets among the passengers calling on the* *Nigerian government to overturn the annulment of the June 12 election. They gave the government 72 hours to meet their demands or else* *they would set the plane ablaze.*

*To show they were not ready to kill anyone so long govt listen to them, they released 34 of the 193 passengers,* *among whom were top Nigerian government officials.*

*The leader of the hijackers spoke to a BBC correspondent. The correspondent asked what* *they were fighting for, and he told him, they wanted to actualize the mandate given by the Nigerian people to* *M.K.O Abiola.*

*Nigerian government under Chief Ernest Shonekan sent 24 delegates to come and talk to the hijackers, but none of* *them entered the aircraft to talk to them, instead they were in the hotel, asking them to come down.*

*The Nigeriene soldiers did not storm the plane because..the hijackers claimed to have rigged the plane with explosives, and so began* *negotiations, keeping the remaining passengers hostage.*

*For three days, the hijackers and the passengers fed on coffee & biscuits.*

*_At some point, they ran out of water for coffee, one passengers demanded for water. Under the guise of bringing them water and_* *food, the Nigeriène soldiers eventually realised the hijackers were not armed, and under the cover of* *darkness, they stormed the plane.*

*The four teenagers were arrested, cuffed hands behind their backs and taken straight to a prison cell. The hijackers* *spoke neither Hausa nor French and nobody made any attempt to* *question them in English.* *They were denied food for days.*

*The hijackers were remanded in Niamey Prison for 9years before they were released in 2002.*

*The Nigerian government* *didnt even* *brother requesting for them to be extradited. They wanted them away from Nigerian soil, to prevent them becoming a symbol of* *resistance to Nigeria's youths.*

*TAKE HOME:- These TEENAGERS representated the generation of Nigerian youths of 1993. Intelligent,* *bold, patriotic and courageous. They courageously believed they could save Nigeria from the tyrannical steel claws of the* *military Junta.*

*Even as teenagers. They placed their lives on the chopping plank to save Nigeria. They weren’t asking for what Nigeria could do for* *them, they thought of what they could do for Nigeria.* *They were only teenagers, yet they wore the chest of warriors.*

It's best they shelved the Igbo day in Lagos. What's the essence of such jamboree?
