No problem at all boss. Hope you’re going to be voting Obi at the polls next year

Nice try. At least you are employing the right tactics to get people to vote for Obi.

Tinubu is my candidate for obvious reasons - Nigeria is a mess and we need capable hands that can deliver right away.
Tinubu is not a saint, no one is a saint in Nigeria. But he has the knack for identifying smart capable hands from all nooks and corners of Nigeria.
That's my main reason for planning on voting for Tinubu. Sentiments apart, he has better records in terms of delivery than all the other candidates.
Obi is young and smart but he does not have any record from been the Governor of Anambra that gives me the confidence that he can do better for Nigeria. Tinubu with all his faults has demonstrated the ability to overlook tribal and religious sentiments to appoint and promote smart intelligent and capable hands to direct the affairs of the State. That's what Nigeria needs more than anything else.
No one person can solve the problem of Nigeria even if you have PDH from Harvard and MIT.
Lagos is a mess, yeah but in terms of development it's still way ahead and far above all other regions of the country.
While Tinubu will take the blames for the mess, he also has to take the credit for the good part too.

Tinubu is my candidate, if Tinubu wasn't running I might have considered Obi.

Chief I’m telling you that your Igbo friends are either suffering from an inferiority complex or allowing undue pressure from kinfolk get to them which brings me to my next point. The going home for Christmas thing is not necessarily limited to the Igbos alone, it has more to do with the mentality that as someone living in the “city” which they assume means you must be rich then that when coming back you can’t come empty handed. It’s like me saying that Yoruba people are dirty because of the few encounters with unhygienic Yoruba people that I know or that Hausas are not academically inclined which also despite applying to some sets of people can’t be used to generalize a whole tribe. I’m igbo but honestly I was raised in PH, Niger, Imo and Abuja. I don’t do the tribalism thing myself and I know a good number of us that don’t fit into your rhetoric, we can’t be fighting for a better Nigeria and still be fighting each other ontop of baseless and trivial issues like this, shalom brother

No problem. Thanks

Wasky101:
So looks define who will be next president, just get ready to wail and throw abuses at the yoruba people for another 8yrs.

Pls help me tell them. The amount of wailing and crying when Tinubu becomes President will make Buhari look like a child's play.
These ones hate Yorubas more than they hate Fulanis self.

Simply barbaric and inhumane. Killed them for what?
Too many backward people in Nigeria. Sad and Pathetic.

Ericnrm:
Now I know you’re just here capping, there is no place like Agunji in the whole of Anambra not to talk of the East as a whole lmao. And as for the money part, yes I know we can be capitalistic but don’t use the experience of less than 1% of the population of a tribe to generalize unless you have proof. I can personally point you to Igbo families I know who are some hidden billionaires but despite their wealth three of those families have been labeled as “Osus” from the time of their grandparents, why didn’t they use their money to influence those decisions then? If money was so important why couldn’t Arthur Eze or Cosmas Maduka, both billionaires in USD buy kingship titles in their state? What you described might have happened but that is very far from my culture and whoever did that is just plain shameless. Thank you for your contribution sha

I already told you that I don't remember the name of the village, that was many years ago. That's what it sounds like to me if I try to remember the name.
What I witnessed has been confirmed by my Igbo friends as the norm in the SE. I also witnessed this over a period of about a week not just on one day. I also had an Igbo man that was one of the contractors I had hired many years ago while building my first house in Lagos. I noticed that he didn't go home for xmas, I asked him why and he said basically the same thing. He told me that if he doesn't have the kind of money he's expected to have made in Lagos, he ain't going home. I was shocked, because this was a guy that was doing very well financially as of then. He's skill was very much in high demand and was making good money in Nigerian context.

Ericnrm:
Name of the village you stayed at chief and what year did this “trip” take place?

Don't remember the name of the village, the year was 2008. Agunji village? Not sure. The host had a huge mansion with tennis court and swimming pool. While at the wedding I quickly noticed how everyone was bowing down to the rich guys especially my host. I was sitting very close to him hence I saw the whole tradition and how rich people are treated.
Hey, every tradition have their own pluses and negatives but the way you guys treat those with money is very un African. Grown old men almost kissing the foot of rich young guys, that will never happen in Yoruba land. (A rich young man in Yoruba land will get some respect but not almost worshiped like a god regardless of your wealth. elders will not bow to you even if you are Elon Musk)
And especially the way Igbos online talk about others worshiping their leaders, you will never think that just having money in Igbo land alone makes you a god. I have an Igbo friend who explained to me that what I saw is normal in Igbo land.
He said that's why Igbo men will do anything for money because if you don't have money, you are nothing in the community. And with money, you are king even the elders will bow.

PeterObi4LP:
I can put my life to this, you have not been to any South East state talk more of Anambra to know it's a village. I serve in Anambra state.

Your life must be worthless to bet it on such an infantile assumption. I have been to Awka, I was there for a friend's wedding in a village not far from the Capital. I was expecting to see a much developed city but in reality, there's was little difference between the village where the wedding took place and Awka itself. We drove to Awka many many times to use the AMT and for other things that we could not find in the village.
Our host was a gentleman with a huge mansion in the village and it seems like everyone bow down to him even the those that are older than him (this will bever happen in Yoruba land regardless of your wealth). I was there for a whole week before flying back to Lagos. There was no airport at that time in Awka at that time (not sure of that now) hence we had to drive to I think Enugu for our flight back, I even met Osofia ( The Actor) on the flight.

Common sense no tell you to click on the link to verify this fake news quote author=CommonSense1967 post=115037017]Peter Obi-tuary is a fraud. Anambra State capital Awka, looks like a village.
Is this the kind of development that Nigeria wants

My assertions are not based on any link, they are based on facts on ground. Awka is just like a village, I have been there.
IS that the kind of development that Nigerians want? I'm sure the answer is a BIG NO.

Kurutinto:
.

Peter Obi-tuary drug dealing partner (his in Law) is still in prison in the US. Drug dealing and IPIG terrorism are like 5 and 6.
We are not voting for IPIG terrorist drug dealer for Presidency.

Odin13:
IPOB analysts

They will stay in their south and be making foolish analysis

Why not tell us the big road kwakwasiya is making the north and where in the north

Penguin wey no fit use him sense Na penguin..

Kwankwanso a Kano creation is pushing in which North ? Yet from zamfara to Kebbi kastina jigawa are all decamping to pdp

What’s stopping them from decamping to NNPP since is Northwest Kwankwanso base?

Only foolish and stupid Nigerian youth will vote for obi and his IPOB organization to take their terrorism to national stage with aggressive bombing of our federal structures

A vote for obi is a vote for ekpa and IPOB on National stage

A vote for obi is a vote for esn to parade your states and order you to kill your parents and loved ones

A vote for obi is the extension of sit at home to the national state

A vote for obi is a vote for religious intolerance and extreme Christianity in Nigeria

OBi is an evil ready to disintegrate Nigeria

IPOB are main official sponsors for Obi

Nigerian youths are wiser than obi and their IPOB youths calling out Nigeria youths

All obi supporters in state outside igboland are IPOB sleeping cells in state .. that have migrated from IPOB igbo meeting to obidiwny fools

No one is deceive by their noise

Just as Nigerian youths made a statement in Ekiti .. the foolish ones deny .. saying obi sisnt campaign



Then Osun .. he campaigned.. only got 2k votes

Same IPOB turn it Na personality dem Dey votes no be Party

Are this OBi supporters really wise ?

Say no to IPOB and dia dirty ekpa .

Nigerians are not going to vote for Peter Obi-tuary the IPIG terrorist supporter.
The conman will not even win a single local govt not to talk of a state.

Bola Hamed Tinubu is the next President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

Peter Obi-tuary is a fraud. Anambra State capital Awka, looks like a village.
Is this the kind of development that Nigeria wants

IboHausaYoruba:
Nigerians, let's learn to follow man that knows the road. Enough of Muslims taking us for granted. Tinubu has dared us by choosing a Muslim deputy, let's speak through our votes. Our fathers in the faith have spoken, Oyedepo, Johnson Suleiman, Enenche etc and CAN generally. The battle line has been drawn. If the over 28 million Christians in the North can cooperate with all the Christians in the South and pull our weights behind Peter Obi, then we are sure of winning. It is simple but requires dedications and focus. I AM OBIDIENT.

Brainwashed delusional reta@ded religious fanatic.

Yeah by investing public money into your own family business. This Peter Obi-tuary Conman is a comedian.

Wizmj4real:
More reasons he will become your president come 2023 so you can go hug transformer

Only if PIGS could fly.
Conman Peter Obi-tuary will not even win a single local government not to talk of a single state..
Get that into your shallow skull.

Fahdiga:
His family was rich before he was born. Stop littering nairaland with trash.

Yeah he was born rich but needed to invest Anambra's money into his own family business?
Stop posting rubbish trash for your fellow gullibles.

Atiku is a desperate man.

PresidObi:
And this is a PDP state

Atiku will be so shocked by what he will see in 2023.

Atiku can only win North east.

Tinubu can only win South west

Peter Obi will confidently win South south, south east, North central, then grab 40% from South west, 25% from North west and 20% from North east.

Peter Obi and Yusuf Datti Baba Ahmed of LP has won the election.

Day dreaming is legal

Pio44:
ur atiku and tinbu nko??

Their names did not appear in the pandora papers.
Obi did as a Conman.

rippa:
Your name na common sense yet u nor get brain
Everytime Pandora. That's the only thing u people have against him
But the bullion van thief with history of drug trafficking that have also turn lagos state to his own personal property, is a saint to u guys.
I they imagine if na tinubu come from east
Oh my God

Usual ranting of another M-kpuru mmiri cannibal IPIG terrorist monkey. Zero IQ, shallow empty delusional reta@ded brainwashed IPIG terrorist.

Fahdiga:
Peter Obi is the only candidate that has no skeleton in his cupboard. Nigerians loves and will overwhelmingly vote for him.

Pls stop posting rubbish trash.
Peter Obi-tuary is a Conman. He invested Anambra money into his own family business. The former drug dealer is a billionaire, how did he make that money?

Peter Obi-tuary is a silent Conman and a liar. The IPIG terrorist drug dealer will just lie as usual.
He has been exposed as a corrupt politician by the Pandora papers.
Peter Obi-tuary's drug partner (in law) is still in prison in the US.

Ortom = failure.

Atiku the lying Cameroonian.

Wipper7000:
Dont mind them, Thats why OBI will never smell ASO ROCK.

Peter Obi-tuary the IPIG terrorist drug dealer will not even win a single local government not to talk of a single state.

Only M-kpuru mirri cannibal IPIG terrorist monkeys are dragging them.
Basta@d IPIG terrorist monkeys will wail and cry till 2037 after Tinubu is sworn in.

Bola Hamed Tinubu is the next president of the federal Republic of Nigeria.

It's very obvious that Baba Iyabo was an accidental President.

Now we have the chance to elect a man that is prepared and capable of doing the job not by accident but by planning and preparation.
Bola Hamed Tinubu is a man that has prepared for the job and is capable with his past experiences and antecedent.

Don't allow your judgement to be clouded by tribal and religious sentiments, vote for the man with the best record of getting things done.
Check the records of the candidates and vote for the one with the best record. - Easy one for me - Bola Hamed Tinubu is by far ahead of the others.

2 failed Governors
Failure visiting another failure.

Littlefingerjp:
so you mean ur father is called all this names

No that will be your village drunkard father.

Calamity in waiting. 6 months from now, they will regret voting for this clown.

OgwuEgo:
I wonder how your brain functions.

Obviously yours is not functioning at all.
