BATified2023:
if I tell u some real shits u won’t believe

Tell me, I am willing to learn

BATified2023:
e go hook u for Neck for this will pass shock

With the way you dey carry this thing for head, I pray you survive the shock because Tinubu will not win

The earlier you get accustomed to it the better for you and your well being

With Buhari not on the ballot for the first time in 20 years, presidential candidates are scheming to crack the Kano votes. As it appears, Buhari’s votes are non-transferable to anyone. When he won the 2019 election with a margin of over 1 million votes, two weeks after, Ganduje struggled to win the election with 8,982.

But the Emilokan crooner is hoping to inherit Buhari's 12 million votes

BATified2023:
many of these igbos never know wetin wan hit them

They think it’s by online noise

The same people doing Igbo meeting association are d same people doing obi match n they are happy

I stay in Ibadan n I didn’t even know they did any match despite d fact that I drive pass iwo road at least twice a day

This people will wake up after election

I like your confidence but as you analyse the coming general election , have it in mind that Tinubu will not win the 2023 president election

It very clear and the earlier you get accustomed to it the better

Infact Tinubu should prepare his congratulatory message because he will congratulate the winner by 4pm on election day

wasuka14:
Before now , you are a popular IPOB members and protesters. Who always step on Nigeria flag and called the country zoo and banana republic. Are u not hypocrite??

Really!

But we are only making the whole world know that Tinubu himself through his statement doesn't believe in Nigeria

Infact Tinubu is tacitly in support of Sunday igboho and Prof Akintoye Yoruba Oduduwa Republic agitations
He is only waiting lose the 2023 general election so that he will now fully throw in his weight towards its actualization

ATLIEN2027:
Rubbish trash. Tinubu believes in Nigeria by appointing Nigerians from all over the co5into his government when he doesn't have to.
How many Nigerians from other tribes have your candidate appointed, pls name them.
Secondly, emilokan is in reference to party nomination, stop posting fake information.
He means it is his turn to run for Presidency under his party.
It's the Igbos who after hailing and worshipping Namdiot Kanu and calling Nigeria zoo now all of a sudden claim it's their turn and we should all vote for a man with nothing to run on except that he's Igbo.
Now Kanu has been forgotten until after Obi loses the election, then they will go back to their Biafuro agenda and start calling Nigeria zoo again.
We already know and waiting for that time..

If Peter Obi had been the one that made that statement of not believing in Nigeria of course you Tinubu supporters would have roll out the trumpets sounding it loud and clear

Peter Obi himself have said it severally that he is not coming to be an Igbo president rather he wants to be the president of Nigeria.

it is you, Tinubu supporters that are busy trying but failing woefully to pin Ipob agitations to Peter Obi but are not pining Sunday igboho and Prof Akintoye Yoruba Oduduwa Republic agitations to Tinubu

Those who call themselves leaders must be held accountable for what they say or do

Tinubu made that statement himself and should be held accountable for it

Tinubu should not aspire to be the president of same Nigeria his doesn't believe in.

Infact Tinubu is working cap in hand with Sunday igboho and Prof Akintoye who have been working hard to break up Nigeria with their Oduduwa Republic agitations

We will see everything in full glare when Tinubu fails to win the presidential election come 2023

You read it here first.

ATLIEN2027:
We already know the IPOB terrorists who are now masquerading as Zombidients lead Peter Obi- tuary the pathological liar.

Tinubu said it himself that he doesn't believe in one Nigeria so why does he now wants to be the president of Nigeria. Not only that, he wants to be the president of Nigeria by going around shouting "Emilokan" meaning, it is my turn to be the president of the same Nigeria he doesn't believe in.

Political structure in Nigeria context has been a system riddled in corruption, meant to keep the people down and in subjugation

We are earnestly waiting for the campaigns to start so that you will tell Nigerians how you intend to rescue us from your APC

You have the solution but kept it away from Buhari and APC for the past 7 years.

.....and one of the candidate who says that it is his turn never believed in Nigeria

Sannisege:
The scammer has arrived New York. How much be gate fee this time around? Awon Oooleeeeeee!

Gate fee is the issue now.

I guess you are amazed by how people pay to see Peter Obi right
Tinubu should organise such meetings even if it is free let see

He shouldn't wail yet because wailing shall abound on election day before 4pm

Chiboy419:
Atiku is a businessman will all know that...
Peter obi is a businessman will all know that...

The question is


How did tinubu became so wealthy without any business empire or track record someone should please explain this for me I'm over confused here

Give one reasonable reason and i will support Bat from today

Agbadorites Jagabandits and SWAGALians will invade this thread with the answer that Tinubu made his money from Mobil as a Top chief accountant

seunmsg:
Yes, the future of Lagos state has been mortgaged to good and qualitative governance. That’s why Lagos state is the 5th largest economy in Africa and the most developed state in Nigeria. That’s also why Peter Obi lives in Lagos and why over 60% of children born yearly in Anambra state must relocate to Lagos to stand a chance of making it in life.

I can bet you have also JAPA to Lagos in a bid to escape the poverty, underdevelopment, poor governance and lack of opportunities that bedevilled your home state of Anambra.

Tinubu did nothing to warrant that rather he successfully ensured that Lagos State became second most unliveable city in the world after Damascus, the capital of war thorne Syria
.

Moh247:
Tinubu said in Osun State, don't waste your vote don't labour in vain obviously not referring to him

Peter Obi is not also referring to anyone too

seunmsg:
He can’t do without talking about Tinubu. He went all the way to America to discuss Tinubu with some gullible Igbo supporters. After losing the election, he will go back to live in Lagos and enjoy the good governance that Tinubu was able to put in place in Lagos.

Tinubu started it all by saying, He will labour in vain

FreeStuffsNG:
Please remind me again,who among all the candidates for all the elective post for the 2023 election is in the pandora files for illicit funds stashed overseas?

Please remind us again, who among the presidential candidate for the 2023 general election have successfully mortgaged the entire future of Lagos State

SpecialAdviser:
When will AGBADO Master grant interview in local station at least for a start?

Local station is even too much,
Let him start with his in-house TVC news and The Nation Lagos-Ibadan expressway propaganda newspaper

The presidential candidate of Labour Party, LP, Mr. Peter Obi, has reacted to the vice presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, and governor of Delta State, Dr. Ifeanyi Okowa, who accused him of dragging the Church into politics.

Obi said he had no apologies to offer for attending church activities.

Obi’s Special Adviser on Media, Mr. Valentine Obienyem said in a statement that it was on record that Obi attended programmes he was invited to, including those organised by the Churches.


“Should Obi start shunning Church events because of politics, even when we know that since leaving office in 2014, he has visited over 1,000 schools and hospitals owned by the Churches, offering them all manner of support for the upgrade of their schools and hospitals that serve the citizens of Nigeria?” Obienyem said.

While cautioning against bringing the name of the Church into disrepute, Obienyem said those doing such were deliberately linking genuine actions of patriots to politics, even when it was absolutely unnecessary.

According to Obienyem, making reference to politics was unnecessary because electioneering had not started and disagreed with Okowa on distinguishing those to be reached out to or not.

He asked: “Why would the PDP vice presidential candidate suggest that it is wrong for anybody to reach out to the churches? Is this not contemptuous of churches?”

He observed that most Nigerians were affected by the bad governance in the country and should expectedly be involved in efforts to enthrone good governance.

He said the Delta State governor should be told about the difference between being politically aware and getting involved in active politics, adding that very soon some people would start to criminalize the encounter Obi is having with Nigerians in Diaspora.

Assuring Nigerians that Obi would not get tired of preaching to Nigerians about good governance and the need for the people of Nigeria to take back their country, Obienyem called on other patriots to join in the crusade, rather than wishing people to keep quiet so that the status quo would remain

...Afenifere, Ohanaeze, ACF, PANDEF, MBF, LP, ADF, Osuntokun, others speak


OUTRAGE, Friday, greeted the ranking of Nigeria as the second most terrorized and attacked country in the world after Iraq by the global Terrorism Research/ Analysis Organisation.

Groups and eminent Nigerians, who spoke on the ranking lamented the dangerous bent insecurity has taken and tasked the government on decisive action.

Those who spoke include the Afenifere; Ohanaeze Ndigbo; Middle Belt Forum, MBF; Pan NigerDelta Forum, PANDEF, Arewa Consultative Forum, ACF; the Labour Party, LP; and Chief Akin Osuntokun.

Govt must take note, double efforts against insecurity – Sani

Commenting on the ranking, former National Publicity Secretary of the Arewa Consultative Forum, Mr Anthony N.Z Sani, said: “I do not have the facts to make informed comments on the rating of Nigeria as the second most terrorized nation in the world. All I can say is that the government should note the reports and double down its efforts in order to put a permanent end to insecurity posed by terrorist across the country.”

It’s a vote of no confidence on Buhari’s govt – Afenifere

In its reaction, the pan Yoruba Socio-political organisation, Afenifere, said the ranking shows a vote of no confidence on the President Muhammaadu Buhari administration.

Afenifere’s National Publicity Secretary, Mr Jare Ajayi, said: “It’s a dangerous thing if on the negative side, Nigeria is ranked in the whole world after Iraq. As we all know, Iraq just went through a devasting war immediately after the removal of Saddam Hussein but Nigeria did not go through such.

“For that, there is no basis whatsoever why Nigeria should be in this kind of situation.

It is a negative mark on the Buhari government, which has been on in the last seven years and a vote of no confidence on his administration.

“This is what Afenifere has been saying and we have been consistent on it. We are not comfortable with it and it is a pity that the global terrorism index has ranked us on the negative side. It is sad.”

Ranking’s testament of APC’s failure – LP

National Chairman of the Labour Party, LP, Comrade Julius Abure,and National Publicity Secretary of the party, Comrade Abayomi Oluwafemi, said the ranking was in tandem with the parlous insecurity situation in the country.

Abure said securing lives and property of the citizenry is the basic minimum duty of any government and any government that cannot provide security should not exist.

The Labour Party added that Nigeria’s position as the second most terrorized nation on earth is a clear testimony of the failure of the President Buhari-led All Progressives Congress, APC administration.

National Publicity Secretary of the party, Comrade Abayomi Oluwafemi, said: “This ignoble position we have found ourselves is a clear testimony of the failure which the APC administration has been on all fronts over the last seven years.

“It is not surprising because this is the same country where bandits over ran our foremost military officers training institution, the Nigerian Defence Academy.

“Is it not in this same country under the watch of the APC that bandits attacked the convoy of a sitting President? Is this not the same country where terrorists are killing, raping and maiming defenceless citizens?

“What about the killing of innocent worshipers at the Church in Owo? the APC is a total failure.

“That is why we appeal to Nigerians to make a better choice when voting in 2023, they can chose wisely by voting for the Obi/ Datti ticker and the Labour Party to change the narrative.”

It’s a reflection of happenings in the country – MBF

The National Presidet of the Middle Belt Forum, MBF, Dr. Bitrus Pogu, said the classification of Nigeria as the second most terrorised country in the world was absolutely correct because it was based on happenings in the country.

Dr. Poge who spoke to to Vanguard in Makurdi, said: “I believe that they used available data to arrive at that classification. There are a lot of things happening in this country that are not reported especially in the North West. The level at which the indigenous Hausa are being attacked and wiped out is unprecedented.

“You know that in our case (Middle Belt) we have an organised system and it has worked in our favour, we have been able to make noise in some cases. But in their own case much of it is not reported. But the international community has quite some data, and it is based on that that they must have arrived at the conclusion that we are the second most terrorised country in the world.

“So it is now left to our government that whatever they are hiding, whatever they didn’t want the international community to know, is now known; and they should do the needful.

“They should put their acts together because in the long run what they are trying to cover up will come to the open; and it has started coming to the open. We pray that they change what is being done.

“I mean when Governor Samuel Ortom said that government forces are protecting terrorists and now the Federal Government is saying they should give evidence as to who revealed it to him; it is all a cover up. As far as we know Nigeria is so terrorised, you and I don’t feel safe moving on the road. We move praying that we do not fall prey to bandits.

“So that classification is correct as far as I’m concerned. And we need to do things right, so that we don’t continue to live in fools’ paradise and continue pretending that all is well while everything is not well.”

Revelation’s not surprising – Osuntokun

On his part, Chief Akin Osuntokun, former spokesman to former President Olusegun Obasanjo, said: “No honest observer of Nigeria can claim to find this revelation surprising. We live the daily realty of the report. But wait for the response of the presidency and the alternate reality they will concoct and you will understand why Nigeria is the way it is.

“Look, who feels it knows it. I went for the burial ceremony of the mother of my boss Nduka Obaigbena, two weeks ago in Agbor, Delta State. What pained me most was I couldn’t go by road. “Given the reality of contemporary Nigeria, it would have been insane of me to even float the idea for discussion.

You remember what the governor of kaduna state said on the security status of Nigeria. He said the government knows where these bandits are holed up and couldn’t understand why his principal, President Muhammadu Buhari was pussy footing around. He thereafter threatened to invite foreign mercenaries to come and fill the vacuum created by the incapacity of this government.

Two days ago, the Governor of Zamfara state, Mutawallen, stated he had ordered 7000 guns for the citizens to protect themselves since the government has become powerless to do anything about the security situation.”

Ranking appalling, frightening but stark reality – PANDEF

The Pan-Niger Delta Forum, PANDEF, led by the South South leader, Chief Edwin Clark described the Global Terrorism Research/Analysis Organization ranking Nigeria as the 2nd Most Terrorized/ Attacked Country After Iraq as the stark reality.

According to PANDEF, though the ranking is appalling and quite frightening the truth must be told considering how unsafe Nigeria is following the incessant attacks and kidnapping by terrorists, massive killing and wanton destruction of property.

Speaking with Vanguard, National Publicity Secretary of PANDEF, Mr. Ken Robinson said: “The ranking of Nigeria as the second most terrorized/attacked country, coming after Iraq, and ahead of countries like Afghanistan, Somalia, Yemen, Syria, etcetera, is appalling and quite frightening, but that’s the stark reality.

“The state of insecurity is dreadful and it’s worsening by the day; innocent Nigerians are being killed daily virtually in all parts of the country by violent extremist groups and criminal gangs. It is either audacious terrorist bandits and marauding killer expansionists in some parts of the country or vicious kidnappers, unknown gunmen and sea pirates in the other parts. Suffice it to say that the country is under an existential threat.

“Unfortunately, the Police, as well as the military and other security agencies, appear to have been overwhelmed, and the situation has been exacerbated by the equivocations of the government, with reports of official complicity and even outright sabotage.

“We can only hope that the next administration would be pragmatic and decisive in dealing with the security situation.”

How to fight insecurity – ADF

Also reacting, Igbo elite body, Alaigbo Development Foundation, ADF, through its Spokesman, Chief Abia Onyike, said: “It is not the yearly increases in security budgets that would defeat insecurity and terrorism in Nigeria.

The defeat of these monsters would come from a radical socio-economic transformation that would guarantee mass employment opportunities, improved educational opportunities for the citizens and a drastic national mental reformation which should place less emphasis on religious indoctrination and ethnic chauvinism.

“If these measures are not introduced and followed, no amount of ammarment build-up can eradicate the crisis of terrorism, violence and banditry in Nigeria.”

“The culture of extremism, seperatism, violence and terrorism are man-made.They reflect the internal struggles between rival factions of the ruling class and diverse regional forces for political control and hegemony. These struggles undermine patriotic commitment to nation-building.

“Unless the various ethnic and religious dichotomies are compelled to close ranks for genuine patriotism and nation-building, there can be no end to terrorism in Nigeria.”

Why insecurity is worsening in Nigeria – Ohanaeze

Agreeing with the ranking, the Ohanaeze Ndigbo declared that insecurity in Nigeria would persist as long as the wrong approach is deployed to tackle it.

Ohanaeze specifically said insecurity would remain as long as the appointment of security chiefs are based on nepotism rather than on merit.

In a statement the National Publicity Secretary, Dr. Alex Ogbonnia, Ohanaeze Ndigbo said: “The insecurity in Nigeria will remain unabated so long as the wrong approach to its solution persists. In the first place, Ohanaeze Ndigbo Worldwide has raised alarm that the lopsidedness in the appointment of service chiefs in Nigeria has greatly antagonised merit.

“Ohanaeze has questioned the rationale behind the alienation of several brilliant brave military officers from the South East of Nigeria on account of nepotism. We argued that the expected morale and integrity in the armed forces will be jaundiced if ethnocentrism is elevated as a state policy among the rank and file of the army.

“The current insecurity catastrophe is the outcome of poor policy options.

“Secondly, the federal government is highly insincere in the fight against terrorism in Nigeria. It is very curious that the members of Boko Harram are treated with kid gloves even when they kill, maim and displace their victims. In other words, the Nigerian government lives in denial.

“Third, the gestapo style and precision with which terrorists overwhelmed the security operatives and picked the members of Boko Haram at the Kuje Correctional Centre leaves much questions than answers

“In sum, we do not really believe that any country is higher than Nigeria on insecurity, rather insecurity in Nigeria is underrepresented.

“This is because, while the insecurity in some other countries such as Syria and Iraq are one directional, the sources of insecurity in Nigeria are multifaceted. They include Boko Haram, Fulani herdsmen, unknown gun men, banditry, kidnappings, cultism, corruption, fetishism, night marauders and hoodlums, etc.

“Based on the above backdrop, no Nigerian is sure of the next day. It is very painful that Nigeria has degenerated so low”.
