NezzyMike:

It's not about playing victim's card, a Yoruba guy was made a member of house of assembly in Abia state, did anyone abuse him or stop him from contesting/winning? Didn't yorubas vote in Eastern states? Stop bringing problems to your future generations cus these politicians no send your papa. You will still mingle or work with the tribe you people felt you could intimidate.
Curse be that person from your tribe that will seek my help off and online.

Abeg just dey your lane!

Big Fat Lie!!!

NezzyMike:
Thank God my sis didn't marry from Yoruba land, the hatred I would've had for him eeh! I have never seen a tribalistic people like this. I pity yorubas in other states, continue bringing divisions because you have data.

The same tribalism amongst Igbos that made them reject a fellow Igbo priest simply cos He is from a different Igbo state - even the Pope got tired of pleading . . .

The same tribalism which saw Anambra sack Igbos from other states from its civil service . . .

The same tribalism that encourages and reinforces the Osu caste system . . .

The same tribalism that led to a public row between Imo and Ebonyi on the renaming of 'Abakaliki street' to 'club street' cos the former was 'unbefitting' . . .

Massiveglory:
If Nigeria will come out of this election with any thing to unite about and build on, the mandate of the rightful winner of the presidential must be restored.

This is only means to gather the fragements of our nation which has been scattered.

This is the only means to hold and build on the foundation of our nation which is heavily shaking right now.

The big question is 'who is the rightful winner'? Atiku? Obi? Tinubu?

Karlman:

And what really have you shown them? I don't understand you lots at all...is there any Igbo man or woman on the govs ballot! You people are really brainless!

Pls Let me state categorically here, that all these Yoruba touts crying all over Nairaland here just because Igbos are not as senseless as you are to give you the much craved opportunity to break into Igbo owned superstores, which will even lead to your miserable deaths anyway, the Igbo man will continue to be your source of envy and pain for the rest of your miserable existence. We worked hard to be who we are and you all can choke on that fact.

NB:
All of you Yoruba touts all over Nairaland crying over my mention...I said and I repeat...the Igbo will forever be your source of envy and pain!
We have seen war, been to war, fought war, died in war, survived war and came out of war to stay on top of all life indices against all odds without any government input...that is the spirit of the Igbo man which you will forever admire from the distance of your miserable existence!
Go ahead and choke on this fact.

Yawn.

Agadinaagwuofe:


This is the absolute truth. It is only fools and myopic tribalists will argue this. With the spite of tribalism awakened, Nigeria is actually heading to precipice, the country will be more divided along ethnic faults like never seen, Whether we can survive the aftermath of what is coming is remaining to be seen. The country has been set in a furnace.

We have been rousing the spirit awake since 2015 when cos Jonathan lost the election, we turned to calling Northerners unprintable names and Yorubas fulani slaves. Amaechi was ostracised for not supporting his 'brother' and casting his lot with a stranger who so happens to also be nigerian.

We have been poking the embers of trouble ever since we started to wish an early death to Buhari cos we dont like him, and knowingly spread fake news about 'Jubril from Sudan'.

When Wike used extreme violence in 2015 and 2019, we all hailed him as a 'real man' cos He targeted people who we disagreed with their political choice. We didnt ask ourselves how cultism that had been tamed by Amaechi for all his flaws was being so flagrantly displayed on the streets of PH. And I always knew he would turn that weapon on his cheerleaders. I like Seyi Makinde, but He too has resurrected thuggery in Ibadan politics that Ajimobi had already put a stop to.

Nnamdi Kanu's words and the tacit silence of people like Ezeife has been stroking tribal tension for almost a decade now.

Dont lets all clutch our pearls and pretend that the events of the past month have us in shock - all sides are guilty, and we all deserve the outcomes we have gotten.

Omoyoruba101:
Tinubu is a terrible human being oo

Let me get this straight: Yakubu was nominated by the APC, but loyal to a PDP governor . . . with both camps just so happening to be Amaechi's rivals . . . Isn't God wonderful?

kennyblac:
Attaining power ain't joke...

GRV only came to limelight through the effect of Peter Obi.

Peter Obi was once an Executive Director at Fidelity Bank for many years, before emerging as the State Governor for 8 years.

He has experience in public and Private sectors.

GRV should make history for himself without running under the umbrella Peter Obi.

Go back to grassroots, develop credible manifesto and try again.

Lagos ain't JOKE

Obi was a non-executive director.

FalseProphet1:

You ought to be ashamed of yourself for typing this all because you're being paid. Continue defending APC one day even the money they pay you wouldn't be able to save you from the monsters associated with this party. Continue

The same way the monster PDP created in Rivers is haunting them now.

bunminikan:
Fake news. ❌❌❌❌❌❌❌
Obi is now a brand that everyone want to associate with. The father Abraham of our time.

Igbos are independent in mind unlike Yorubas that have herd mentality like the northern almajiris,.😁

Ekpa was doing well until the fraudster Thiefñubu happened to him 😎

LMAO . . . we all saw how you followed Ojukwu to wage a pointless war . . . we saw how Uwazurike scammed thousands of you selling biafran passports . . . we all saw how you were all rushing headfirst to kiss Mazi Kanu's feet . . . we have seen how one Ekpa all the way from Finland can push you to burn your homeland . . . we have seen your single-minded support for Obi . . . we have seen time and time again into your BS. You are not fooling anyone.

kcnwaigbo:
Fake news!! Where exactly in this stupid report did Mr Peter speak? So the cross River state PDP chairman is now the spokesperson for Peter Obi?

Watched Obi say this on Arise.

Nope, but trust Chief Priest to bring his cultist vibes to even the most sober conversations.

At the rate IPOB is going, and given the massive anger in the East over Obi's loss, I expect IPOB to overtake in another 24 months.

Yorubalandlord:
LP from top to bottom

All obedient are you readyyyyyy!!!!

Saturday is here already, make your vote count.

There is dignity in labour.
We are 100% sure lagos, abia, Delta, enugu and plateau is going to labour party.

Whereas our principal will recover his stolen mandate soon.

Brace up

I only see Abia going to Labour party . . . and rightly so. Ikpeazu has got to go. Lagos is for APC, Delta would likely go APC, Enugu hopefully goes to APGA, while Plateau is between APC and PDP.

FarahAideed:
Hahahahah..only a clown will believe this , Seplat CEO has clearly refused to play ball with these clowns , since when did Nigeria start taking expatriate quota seriously 😁😁

LOL. Nigeria has always taken expatriate quotas seriously . . . its a few Nigerian Industrialists with political connections like Dangote that subvert the process. As far back as 2016, NIS stormed my office, and were threatening to arrest my Colleague in charge of processing CERPAC reports. If you have ever managed CERPAC processing for an organization, you would know the amount of headache that comes with it.

Pharaoh4rin:


It's not about a mere winning. It's about the margin.
What APC did was to dwarf the margin and that's one of the essences of the investigation

Even if all the SE votes for APC are deducted, APC would still lead. Plus if we go down that route, the 4 major parties would all lose significant votes.

No election in Nigeria has ever been totally free and fair - even the USA still struggles with assuring free and fair elections. But I feel the elections largely reflect the reality of preferences across the regions: LP was bound to win the SE; SS was bound to be a battle ground for the top 3 with LP having an advantage; SW is APC's turf; NC was largely going to lean to APC; and NW/NE were going to be between APC and PDP.

No rational Obidient expected votes from the core North, and if we are being honest Datti is a lightweight in the North. The implication here is that LP was bound to discount 12 states from it's spread.

Asides Lagos, the rest of the SW was between PDP and APC, so add another 5 states to the earlier 12 summing up to 17 states that LP wasnt going to get a foothold. Add Kwara and Niger which even Datti admitted before the elections that the LP was in, and you can easily see why Obi could never win this election.

MrRichmond:


Loans for youth is called student loans in the West.

This policy has failed and put millions of Americans in debt.

Do your research and stop swallowing everything hook line and sinker!!!

The policy failed mainly cos the colleges got greedy, and started unduly inflating the cost of education.

colorsofrainbow:


Yes LP rigged in Lagos too
Rigged in Abuja too
Rigged in Nasarawa too

There were more votes in Amuwo Odofin where LP won than accredited voters . . .

IGBOSON1:


After reading your useless question, i took a quick look at your profile, and just as i expected, you’re a Tinubu minion!

To your question…..what i and other people of good conscience should do is join in the call for the cancellation of this charade you called ‘election’ and not only support a rerun, but also that INEC should follow the electoral rules and regulations it instituted to enhance transparency of the process!

Its childish rants like this that make people raise eyebrows when some of you Obidients talk. If you want to have a conversation, be mature about it, and refrain from insults.

I'm largely indifferent as to who wins, but be truthful to yourself, Obi cannot win 25 states. No court would cancel the entire elections, maybe a couple states like Rivers . . . But to get to 25 from 16 states, where would Obi's numbers come from?

As far as Im concerned, every party performed some sort of fraud in this election . . . there were videos of under-age voting in the SE and the core North, electoral officers thumb-printing for people in the East, armed violence on behalf of all parties in multiple states etc. But the electoral map to a very large degree reflects both ethnic and religous sentiments consistent with how they voted.

Tiztonio:
Obi’s mandate will be reclaimed. Apc believe they own the Judiciary but this particular case will shock them and Inec

What mandate? Obi got 25% in 16 states; add Rivers, maybe Kogi, maybe Bayelsa - where else? He still wont make 25 states.

Obi's overt christian-biaised campaign was flawed from the beginning: take out 12 states from NW and NE, and another 3 from NC, the most He would have gotten is 22 states. His ceiling was 22 STATES!

Obi had a great first outing, however like I keep saying, He is the southern version of pre-2015 Buhari - destined to be very popular in a segment of the country, but without crucial support across it.

Observing LP supporters now, I understand why Buhari's supporters of way back used to be super bitter about his losses. It can be a bit of cognitive dissonance when everyone around you seemed to be rooting for someone and yet He didnt win, forgetting there are others outside your bubble.

IGBOSON1:


They're really funny honestly! Tinubu resorted to bribery, intimidation and MURDER in order to steal someone elses mandate, and the senile fool thinks he can govern in peace? He's got another think coming!

What are you going to do about it?

Roboto11:


How come APC won seats in Edo state, Delta state, Benue state, Akwa Ibom state?

I already analyzed this before the elections even started:
- Edo State: Oshiomole is a force in the north of the state, plus that side has a significant muslim population;
- Akwa Ibom State: Akpabio is loved among the Annang people, and delvered that side
- Benue State: The most loved politician in Benue is Father Alia of the APC who is running for Governor; it also didn't help that PDP was fractured between Ayu, Ortom, and Obi;
- Delta State: Ibori quietly left the PDP a few weeks back over disagreements with Okowa, and Omo-Agege's popularity has been spiking due to significant dislike for Okowa. A lot of Deltans I know were going to vote LP for presidency, and APC for governorship.

MrSensor:
wake up dreamer, this is 2023.

bros u lied in plateau OBI got more than 70% but i don't know of other people's state

Like I said, it is unconfirmed . . .

Oga cool down,obi have won 3 zones
Ss,SE,NC
Atiku 2 zones ne,NW
Tinubu won 1 zone SW

Grammar is not necessary now.

By 11am today, when reality starts to dawn, you would start to calm down . . .

Updated: 8:35am done nack and all my Obidient friends already have bags under their eyes oooo

TrueNigerian300:


Great analysis full of logic!

Not confirmed, but looking like City Boy is in . . .

"Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu is Unofficially President Elect (according to our collations from polling units to polling units across the 36 States including the FCT) having won More than 40% in each state of the 6 States of North West, in each state of the 6 States of North East, more than 30% in each state of the 6 North Central States, more than 25% in FCT, more than 25% in 2 States of the 5 South East States (igbos state), more than 25% in each state of the 6 States of the South South, more than 55% in each state of the 6 States of the South West.

Peter Obi (according to our collations from polling units to polling units across the 36 states including FCT) got less than 1% in each state of the 6 States of North West, in each state of the 6 States of North East, less than 15% in two each state of north central, got 30.33% in Benue , got 15.48% in Nasarawa, 35.27% in plateau state, less than 10% Kogi and Niger state of the 6 North Central States, got 30.3% in FCT, got 50% in all the 5 states of the South East States (igbos state), got 30% in each state of the 6 States of the South South, got 35.55% in Lagos of the South West and less than 11% in each other states of the 6 States of the South West (Yorubaland)"

maybet081:



Oga cool down,obi have won 3 zones
Ss,SE,NC
Atiku 2 zones ne,NW
Tinubu won 1 zone SW

Grammar is not necessary now.

LOL. OK, let's wait for INEC . . .

gammarays1:

There are 3 zones in the North, how many gave block votes to PDP or APC?
There are 3 zones in the south, at least 2 gave Obi block votes
Fct is fully Obi
Do your calculation. Only a massive electoral fraud will force a rerun or contention between Obi and either Atiku or Tinubu. Obi is leading.

Obi's steam has run out: He is the southern version of pre-2015 Buhari - fanatical following in a part of the country, but lacking national spread. A good run, but it is over; now the big boys like Asiwaju and Atiku are here to play, but considering that PDP was cannibalized in the south largely by LP, I don't see Atiku taking it.

North Central has Kwara. Kogi, Niger, Nasarawa, Benue, and Plateau. Of these six states, at least 3 are very certain for APC:
- Kwara btw is a yoruba state in disguise, and 80% muslim.
- Tinubu is the Jagaban of Borgu - Borgu is in Niger state -a core APC state.
- Kogi with Yaya at the helm is unassailable.
- Nassarawa is not going to LP in any form - PDP and APC would battle it out.
- Benue is a battle-ground, but Father Alia of the APC is the most popular politician in that state - expect APC to do decent.
- Plateau I might concede to LP, but even there is a battle-ground.

North East has Borno, Yobe, Adamawa, Gombe, Taraba and Bauchi
- Bauchi is a PDP state, so that's in Atiku's favour, but He has had issues with the Governor there recently, so fingers crossed.
- Borno and Yobe are both Kanuri - Shettima is Kanuri, and his tribe have felt somewhat marginalized for a while in the North plus this is the first time a Kanuri is on a presiential ticket - APC is taking this.
- Taraba is largely christian so LP could do well here, but I really cant call it.
- Adamawa is for PDP, but APC would give them a run for their money. LP would get some votes here though, but not much.
- Gombe is a state I'm not very familiar with so no comments.

North West has Kano, Kaduna, Katsina, Sokoto, Kebbi and Zamfara
- Zamfara leans to very austere islam, and was the first state in Nigeria to introduce Sharia law - definitely not gonna be in the bag for LP which is perceived as genuflecting to christian voters.
- Kano is a battle-ground for NNPP, PDP, and APC, but I feel the PDP structure has been weakened by the breakout of Kwankwaso and his party. Kano is really going to be between APC and NNPP.
- Jigawa is also between NNPP and APC.
- Kaduna is going to be between all parties with LP cannibalizing a lot of PDP strongholds in the south of the state.
- Sokoto and Kebbi are too close to call but expect it to be between PDP and APC

Opintiwa:


Do you understand how civilized nation work now ?

Please don't be silly.

floret23:
Well, we yoruba Christians will never vote Tinubu on Muslim-Muslim ticket because we are not fools. When MURIC terrorists told Yoruba Muslims not to vote Yoruba Christians, they all agree. Since no yoruba muslim in Nigeria will ever vote Christian-Christian ticket, why should we christians now vote Mu-Mu ticket?

For your information, Christians are not minorities, slaves, or second class citizens in Nigeria. Mu-Mu ticket is a big insult to we Yoruba Christians and we shall punish Tinubu for that before Satan will also punish him. Woe unto any Christian who vote for Islamisation of Nigeria.

"We cannot appoint Pablo Escobar as president and Osama bin Laden as vice president," -- Senator Dino Melaye

Once I see 'Yoruba Christians', I sense an Easterner behind the screen. There is none of the 7 yoruba states where there is not a mix of chrisitians, muslims and traditionalists in the same family.

Opintiwa:


I don't think so .

They don't arrest citizens like that because a crime was not committed against Finland.

Could be an INTERPOL request . . . also, not sure if there are limits to terrorism charges whether committed against the host nation or not . . .
