Are you denying of being an Obidients member?

I am not an Obidients member! I preferred Obi over APC at the last election because I did not want APC to continue in power.

If Obi had won, unless he performed miracles, which I doubt he could, I'd be here campaigning for a change at the next election too.

I don't want any of our parties or leaders to be in office too long until they actually learn to govern.

Kobojunkieee:
This here is proof that most Nigerians who claim they want change are not in fact ready for the kind of change found in other parts of the world - Change that actually makes a difference. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Kobojunkieee, most Nigerians are not in fact ready for the kind of change found in other parts of the world! Those other parts of the world became what they are by their people making the changes they wanted and not just by sitting on their asses thinking their president was a messiah.

If we were ready for the kind of change found in other parts of the world, we would ourselves individually be the change we want to see instead of expecting some person we elect as president to do the changing for us.

Alright, remain in my Mention. Till when I can spare little time for you.

You are sparring time for me as it is, and it is much appreciated. Thank you.

helinues:
Why should those who you are in the same group be questioning your beliefs? Are you sure you are in the right group.

I sometimes read about how other Obidients attack for you expressing yourself

I don't know what you mean by "in the same group".

I am not in any group per se, and I don't have beliefs that should not be questioned. Even members of my family question me, so why shouldn't others who don't even know me not question me too?

Please question me for expressing myself as much as you can and want to. Your questioning makes me consider and grow.

PlayMaker14:
Remain in my mention then.

I will feed you soon.

Sir, you will not and do not need to feed me, thank you very much, because my belly is already very full.

Kobojunkieee:
Obi, like every other politician who has occupied office in the last 25 years, has nothing like change to offer anyone, even Nigerians.

I beg to differ. And perhaps you should have asked me what change I wanted first. Its not any one of the things you listed.

Obi is not some messiah or any different to Tinubu, but he would have kicked out a lot of the people in APC and put his own people there. That would be a change.

Now, his own people would not necessarily be any more competent than the people he kicked out nor much different neither, but it would have taken the new people some time to find where APC kept the Nigerian money they looted, and they might have told us how much too before they began their own looting.

They might even have probed Buhari, being they are not the same party, and after 4-8 years, another change would have subjected them to the same probing treatment.

Uneasy lies the head that wears a crown that it can easily lose. And I mean their head as well as their crown.

I don't want any leader or party being comfortable or covering up for those they take over from, and the constant change will make them uncomfortable and create the need for them to up their game.

PlayMaker14:
Anyone who brings you back to your senses is "Trolling" you?

Lol

See what I mean?

Just as helinues can not stop you quoting and mentioning him, so can you not control me quoting or mentioning you.

PlayMaker14:
In the end, if you want to "remind yourself" on anything, do that without coming into my mention.

Hope you understand?

Stay blessed.

It is a public forum. You can't control who quotes what you post or comes into you mentions.

Hope you understand. Be more blessed.

Letsmeet:
Thank you very much. This is an interesting read, but it seems to insinuate that the fine is ₦200 , and that on second conviction ₦200 or imprisonment.
Seems a bit off. Can any lawyer verify this.

The fine is ₦200 in Kwara State. It is differs in different states.

PlayMaker14:
Remind yourself with something better rather than being in the pocket of Tinubu.


Remind yourself how much better you were than now

Okay?

I was never in the pocket of Tinubu. And how better I am now does not depend on any politician, or god even, since I depend much on the sweat off my brow.

I do wish Obi had been elected though, because I love change.

PlayMaker14:
You can actually remind yourself without mentioning me... Or do you also mention me when you want to think properly?

I mentioned you because you were part of my thought, which is the reason you yiu posted here, I presume, to make one consider what you posted. No?

You made me research. I found different states have their own laws, but generally,

I just want to remind myself.

The democrats need a new group of solid voters.
You suppose many racist whites in UK would kit mind a tax increase as long as all of you are shipped back to where you came from?

Racist whites are a minority in UK. We cure people of that nonsense in primary school, and only the failures don't learn.

The Democrats did not beat dump with black votes alone, and the new group of solid voters they'd win with in November are those you call Rinos who've seen what dump represents and abandoned him.

Of course pastors need private jets! How else would they move 10 million around? You can't exactly carry that amount of money on a commercial plane now, can you.

In fact, you might as well claim pastor's don't need to collect tithes, but you'd then need to convince yourself their intention is to win souls for the gods instead of lining their own pockets with riches.

Then said the king unto him, Thinkest thou not that Bel is a living God? seest thou not how much he eateth and drinketh every day?

Then Daniel smiled, and said, O king, be not deceived: for this is but clay within, and brass without, and did never eat or drink any thing.

The blacks don't know they are being replaced by the illegals being flown in from all over.

I thought the mantra was it was Jews who were replacing the whites.

How's this going to go? Would you stop employing blacks too and ship them all to Liberia or what?

IjeBos:
It's the same misogynistic racist tropes they trot out when a woman or black person is running.
When it's a woman, she cackles. Google Hillary's Cackle.
When it's a black person, he/she is dumb. Obama was a terrible student, not good enough for Harvard. He stole someone's id to get into Harvard.. blah bah.
And they are always only successful because of outside factors, DEI, Affirmative Action.
Same old tropes, just repackaged.

Sad when it comes from black people, but not surprising that those in Plato's Cave would not want anyone to leave. Its the same way we force ourselves to not eat fruits of knowledge in case our eyes open and we see enough to free ourselves from slavery, but some amongst ourselves benefit from the status quo and don't mind their own race being chained so long as they themselves profit.

I watched Django Unchained last week, and was rather amused at Stephen (played by Samuel Jackson). He reminded me of Tim Scott, and made me want to ask you to educate me on the different types of black people there are in USA, but figured .... . Well.

Akamon:
We have seen countless times where governments in power take a leaf of advise from Nairaland and other Media houses to effect changes in governance. Who can tell

Personally, my hope is low. Everyone on Nairaland and other Media houses are currently loudly telling "governments in power" to end bad governance, but I can't say "governments in power" has heard.

All I need the current government do is release good accounts and records of our government parastatals and co for us to see, since our president is an accountant.

Just a list of how much ministries and co. owe NEPA, and how much is spent on various subsidies, will do for starts. But nothing yet. Sadly.

myhotbrain:
I am so ashamed for our youths and their level of comprehension of simple write-ups such as the one under discussion. The 3rd poster, Odingo, derailed the topic in favor of ethnic bashing because he didn’t understand the post,. Almost all the other responders went along with the wrong opinion of Odibgo and ran with it.

The survey was talking about the ratio of people who took DNA test and their locations, both within Lagos and outside of Lagos; the age of kids being tested and the purposes for which the test was done in the first place. The DNA survey was not talking about which tribe fornicate the most!

The greatest wrong our leaders have done to our youths is: the miseducation of our youths.

A lot of people have cold brains.

It was the op who claimed Yorubas formicate more, though he has since changed the topic of his thread now we've pointed out his lack of comprehension and ignorance.

Ferrari! Awesome!

I can't believe some idiots were suggesting Piastri let Nando pass. I'm delighted McLaren didn't do such nonsense and ruin the lad forever.

NorthernAgender:
The guy is anti Yoruba people.

That would explain this thread. Though, ignorance is another reason, for the thread and for being anti an entire tribe.

bemeruca:
She is not gonna have another one. She is trying to back out of the debate, she wants to read from notes in the debate. I would conclude she is expecting debate questions and to carry prepared answers.

They gave Hillary Clinton debate questions before, who is to say they are not planning to do the same thing?

I'm not surprised she'd want notes. I'd need notes too to fact check dumb's many lies. In fact, I'd need a whole lot of assistants with notes to fact check dumb's numerous lies!

As for planning. I'd rather see evidence than go yelling without any that the debate was rigged, considering Biden who might have needed them never had debate questions before hand.

NorthernAgender:
The person that write this statistic should go and do DNA if truly his father is the one that born him.

In fact, I must agree, though I think it is the person who posted it that should go and do DNA test to check if they have a brain!

The article says "Yoruba ethnic group accounted for 53 per cent of tests, followed by Igbo (31.3 per cent), with Hausa at only 1.20 per cent", and the op read that as Yoruba has '53% negative tests, Igbo 31.3% negative tests, Hausa 1.20% negative testing', like someone who never went to school!

I guess we'll need to see how many ignorantly fall for his ignorant bias or have brains themselves to see through it and that of course the more well read will do more DNA tests than illiterates who never went to school

Op! You are very out of order!

bemeruca:
Musk is not a journalist, that's more like a chat than an interview. They spoke live on Twitter for more than 2 hours. Kamala cannot make it to 17mins.

I guess we shall see. And when she does, I'll see what you say then too.

Ttalk:
Nigerians are not daft and the understand that the rot of 60years won't go away in a year.

What is important is to lay the foundation of a new and greater Nigeria and to put pressure on the government not to lose track.

But when you think of changing power from a one ere man and give to a blind man as solution to Nigeria problem then your delusion is follow come.

Atiku and Obi are not and cannot be a replacement for Tinubu, take that home and you will be alright

Atiku and Obi are not the only Nigerians suitable for our presidency. And there's the Senate and House of Reps and governors too who significantly contribute to the bad governance.

In fact, I do wonder that we are not laying a foundation (we can't be laying foundation since 1960!), but are letting bad builders build on a bad foundation with bad bricks. But I do suppose we can continue doing what we've always done and expect a different and better outcome. Hope does after all spring eternal, I'm told, and Nigerians are patient and very good at Shuffering and Shmiling.

The below is from 1977. It might make you see how far we've come.

bemeruca:
What she gave on CNN was not an interview, it was just a show to ease the complaints and she still bombed it, despite Dana not pushing her like she did with Vance.

She failed to answer the most basic questions. Instead, she prepared word salad.

The interview was not live, meaning they selected the best to show us. She only spoke for 16 minutes. That's not an interview, that's a show.

Is "just a show" your new adjective (sentence) to describe Kamala's interview?

It's not really an adjective, mind, and its very weak, like the sort of adjectival sentence one would use to describe what musk did with dump if you asked me, though that is better described as a 'rambling shît show' despite and because of its length.

The former governor said it will be “very difficult” for Tinubu to be defeated in the 2027 presidential election.

He added that Tinubu defeated all obstacles to become president in 2023, including a sitting president, who did not want him.

I do wonder if Tinubu would defeat the people yelling ẹbí n'pawa and end bad governance, and no fuel and spiked exchange and gari rate etc., but I do guess Nigerians can suffer long and continue to elect the source of their suffering.

We after all yelled "Fulani" for 4 years and elected Bubu for another 4, so I wouldn't be surprised if we can't be the obstacles that defeat Tinubu in the 2027 presidential election.

Perhaps they should report GUO Transport to someone for not filling the bus with fuel before it left Lagos so the driver is not frustrated looking for fuel in Ogun State!

This letter to Tinubu has motivated me to write to satan to tell him to turn down the temperature in hell and reduce the suffering and anguish because I don't believe satan has his own agenda just like this letter writer is still convinced that Tinubu doesn't have his own agenda.

Hopefully, satan will hear what I write and do the opposite of what is currently done just as this writer believes Tinubu would.
