We clearly know that he got less than 30 percent votes in Yoruba land. As he failed in Osun and Lagos of all places is it in Ogun, Ekiti, Oyo, Ondo that are privy to Tinubu's notoriety and clearly don't care about him that will now give him the votes
.
What clearly happened is that INEC in the places PDP and LP's presence are not strong manipulated the results in those areas for Tinubu and that's what we are hoping the tribunal in no time will upturn

First of all, Tinubu did not win the presidency and that we all know.

Secondly, his support base is highly exaggerated. We could understand this by the nairaland experience where u have one Tinubu supporter having tens of handles or accounts here. If one is not aware of this, one would feel there are many Tinubu supporters here but its not true. I can bet Tinubu got less than 30% votes in the southwest and far smaller percentages in other regions.

This brings me to the main topic, the tribal support for Tinubu. What I ve come to find out in the Tinubu Support base especially here in nairaland and other social media platforms is that those supporting Tinubu today are the same people who have supported Buhari during his campaign in 2015 and all through his regime.
Buhari support base was grossly depleted for Tinubu because most of the Buhari supporters have abandoned their earlier stand due to hardship that in the February presidential election, they supported Obi or Atiku remaining just the remnants for the Tinubu candidacy.

Nigerians continue to wait on the tribunal to do the right thing.

How did that happen I really want to know. We seem to think upside down in this country if not, there shouldn't be any basis for court process in the first place.
Tinubu, lost in his strongholds of Osun and Lagos and went further to lose at the center of Nigerian governance. Where and how did he then get the figures that won him the election. From the people that were openly protesting against his candidacy and calling him unprintable names.
I hope Tinubu is denied this mandate because it is clearly obvious he failed in that election and allowing him to lead Nigeria even at the state the country is, won't augur well for Nigeria as a country

There is no gain beating about the bush that the Obidients is a selfless movement solely geared towards emancipating Nigeria from the claws of impunity and backwardness occasioned by the thieving and heartless leadership that has worsened with each passing years.
The southeast and south south youths have formed the bulk of the obedient movement with significant number of youths coming from the north centrat. A sizeable number of southwest youths were also part of the movement leading to the presidential election but this number was sgnificantly depleted immediately the tribal whistle was expectedly blown.

Nigeria has all it takes to be comfortably among the second world countries with the likes of Brazil, Indonesia etc but we are nowhere to be found even among Africa's top

The struggle is not over.

And these section of youths filled with bigotry are at the bottom of the society

Its absolutely clear that Wike ordered that outcome and he must be called to answer

Even though some percentage of them have stood up to the rescue Nigeria mission, a larger number are still been controlled by the political class through the instrument of tribalism and they are the worst for it

i was a huge beneficiary not because buhari created the environment but because it is naturally in my blood to make money as a trader even in the most difficult economic environment.

u have true Igbo blood in u

Offpointng:
Controlled by what foolish Igbos?? So y'all can't push the states where y'all are predominant to be valuable and have a high revenue but would stupidly claim the success of others and other region where y'all are seeking refuge. Y'all can't seem to be separated from stupidity, can you?

Ur cries can't stop Igbos from buying up ur choicest lands and living in affluence while relegating u lots to the slums where u eat crumbs from Igbos

Peacemaker5128:
say yes or no

are u kidding with such thoughtless question

Offpointng:
Well Owomida has put 3 south western states on the Top 10 states with the highest IGR in Nigeria. No SE states comes close. And needless to remind you, so many Igbos would rather kill or die than not having the opportunity to get security and prosperity in the South west. Deal with it Iyamiri

and how has the bogus 'IGR' helped a very hungry man like u because those IGR are eventually controlled by the Igbo merchants in connivance with ur thieving politicians

Peacemaker5128:
those in FCT have 2 heads than us?

it's the law

Absuchat:

Why do you like smoking toilet this op?

u re always cursing. I hope u re alright?

Offpointng:
I could careless actually. Just tell your people to vacate the South west and never ever return

are u sure hunger no go kill person like u because u lots survive on owomida

ojun50:
Stop rushing notting special about the incoming one. Them no get plan for una since we still dey borrow loan.

abi bulabalu govt go worse. Well he will be stripped of the mandate in due time.

aariwa:
I also noticed that since the beginning of Nnamdi kanu Biafra agitation and the disadvantage is that it has made land more expensive. A place like fegge in Onitsha was less than 15m in 2015 but today a standard plot with an old building on it goes for a minimum of 45 million now

u re right. Even in the villages lands are very costly. I believe it is because of the fast developmental strides currently happening in southeast

How Igbos do it is still mystery to other Nigerians. In my village for instance the number of new buildings constructed is more than 20times the ones constructed during 16yrs of PDP administration.
In buhari regime we started hearing of Obi Cubana and very many other young Igbo guys.

The summary, Igbos will always find ways to succeed, they don't care if tinubu is president. Its the rest Nigerians that will feel the crunch

Most have simply returned to their hometowns and based there. These various towns have become a virgin land for the returnees. The surprising thing is that most of these returnees came back empty handed squatting in the extended family houses but today most have built their own duplexes from the money made at home
For those still struggling outside AlaIgbo it's time to make that journey back home because Alaigbo na the real deal.now

The man's lukewarmed attitude is on another level. The man that uses cotton wool to block his ears with toothpick in his mouth when Nigerians groan under the heavy loads and sufferings he continued to create for the people

I thought good turn deserves another. There is this narrative pushed upon and down that Tinubu made Lagos the best in everything and the same Lagosians rather gave their support to Peter Obi. If we are anywhere logical, the recent presidential election in Lagos state should put to rest such narratives

Peter Obi on the other hand won almost 100% of the votes in Anambra. That shows the acceptance of Anambrarians on his achievement as a governor.

yarimo:
Please ask obi did he win in kebbi, Bornu, sokoto, katsina, zamfara, yobe, JIGAWA, Kano, gombe, Bauchi, Adamawa, kogi, kwara,Niger, just ask him those ones before I continue with ekiti, Ogun,Ondo,Oyo

and you don't know that what is on the IREV is different from what was announced in all these states you stated

If Tinubu after loosing in his stronghold Lagos and home state Osun and further lost in the country's capital Abuja with less than 25% constitutional votes, let Nigerians see how that happened.

Having followed Obi's governorship campaign in 2002, the election and the post election campaigns and proceedings. I am assured Obi is going yo secure this mandate for the Nigerian people .

The Presidential election tribunal commences on Monday, 8th May, 2023 and we can only hope for the best

God bless Nigeria

flokii:
Another myopic fellow trying to play smart.
The ship has long sailed.. we are wiser now.

naa, you 're more confused

Godfullsam:
Op no get sense

where u surface from abro

The youth without exaggerations are the ones to save this country from the total collapse it is dangerously tottering to. Nigerian youths during the Endsars movement exercised a little of their influence and power and SARS an influential unit of the Nigerian police collapsed.
The politicians who have ofcourse perfected their plan and their total hold on the country have continued to exploit tribalism as their last card to controlling the youths. Even when other tools, plans or cards failed they already know the ethnic card won't fail.

However, during the just concluded presidential election, that ethnic card was grossly innefective and weakened. The youth through the instrument of enlightenment by various players from Nnamdi Kanu, Fals, Macaroni, PSquare, etc and finally by the Obidient movement led by His Excellency Peter Obi are finally at home with what must be done to save Nigeria and the work is continueing

For those who are yet to be enlightened, tribalism only serves the interest of the ruling class and their associates. Bad leadership affects everyone it doesn't matter the ethnic group u belong to.

helinues:
Pastor Odumeje will be having a special deliverance on this Sunday. You are cordially invited

Ogbeni ur own case don even tire human pastors

Because I know most Tinubu supporters like Helinues are unemployed or underemployed.
It reminds me of a friend an Hausafulani in Abuja. During the presidential election in 2015, he was so so passionate about the Buhari presidency even though he wasn't as toxic as this Tinubu supporters. Then, he had a 80k job but immediately after the swearing in same 2015 he somehow lost the job. I didn't know he lost his job but then he started avoiding me. I thought may be things started going good for him and he was snubbing me or something even though what I saw of him then we were in the same neighbourhood wasnt of affluence.
To summarize the story, he paid me a visit one day and was lambasting Buhari. So I asked to understand such change of tone to a man he adored that much? He narrated how he lost his job immediately after the swearing in and couldn't find any other meaningful job that he ended up with a 25k job. I didn't wanna laugh in front of him so I was consoling him that he would soon find something better.

My point, if u are supporting Tinubu because in ur heart, u feel Tinubu is the better candidate, good for u but if u re doing so on ethnic sentiments or considerations or because u re hating on some people...?

helinues:
