Bebigiby1: Tinubu’s government won’t listen or implement the demands of Nigerians…. An interim government is the only way out for Nigerians…. You said “democratically elected”…. Did Tinubu win 2023 presidential election?
Okay,so the person in third position should head the interim government? Where should we put the runner up? 🤣 🤣 🤣 Lmao.....
Bebigiby1: Earlier today several military armored tanks were deployed to the FCT and stationed in the Eagle Square ready to attack unarmed protesters on August 1
This government is anti-democratic, dictatorial, selfish, corrupt and insensitive to the plight of the masses. Peaceful protest is a fundamental constitutional right of every citizen of this country and Tinubu enjoyed protesting against the Jonathan’s government without any infringement on his rights. It is callous of this government after failing to address the terrible situation Nigerians are going through, it still want to deny Nigerians their rights to protest?
The 14 point agenda for the August nationwide protest revolves around addressing the fundamental problems of our country and many of the points made were spot on. With what desperation of this government to intimidate and silence Nigerians, it is obvious that the demands of this protest will not entertained not to talk of it been implemented by this hopelessly corrupt insensitive Tinubu’s government. This is why on an earlier post I made a case for the dissolution of this government and an establishment of an interim government that will be saddled with the responsibility of implementing the demands of protesting Nigerians. For Nigerians to achieve genuine progress from this nationwide protest, here is a list of realistic 3 point workable agenda that Nigerians should demand for during the protest based on order of implementation….
AGENDA 1: Remove Tinubu as president either through willful resignation or forced impeachment, followed by a total dissolution of the current government
AGENDA 2: Establish a caretaker interim government setup with a mandate of 2 years to implement the points listed below.
- Stabilize the economy by implementing immediate reversal of fuel subsidy removal and floating of the Naira policies. It will establish a corrupt free fuel subsidy scheme, reverse sale of NNPC, sack current NNPC management and revive one national refinery (Port Harcourt refinery) within 5 months period.
- Establish a new remuneration scheme that will ensure that Nigerian workers are paid l a minimum wage that reflects economic realities to boost Nigerians purchasing power and revitalize the economy….
- Constitute a national reformation agenda that will entail representation from each geo political zone with a mandate to overhaul the 1999 constitution or replace it with a people-backed constitution through a sovereign national conference followed by a national referendum. The provisions of this new constitution should scrap the senate arm of the Nigerian legislative system and make legislative job a part-time endeavor
- As a matter of urgency, draft and implement provisions for the restructuring of Nigeria political landscape towards decentralization to uphold Nigeria’s diversity, foster peace through resource control, decentralization of constitutional powers and regional development.
- Implement the unconditional release Nnamdi Kanu, all Endsars and human rights activists political detainees
- Reform the nation’s security agencies by sacking all current military and security officials benefiting from widespread insecurity and terrorism across Nigeria
- Reform the nation’s anti-graft agencies (EFCC, ICPC…) by sacking all current heads of the anti-graft agencies and empower the anti-graft agencies to investigate and prosecute corrupt judges that have denied and continue to deny Nigerians access to justice
- Setup judicial panel that to probe and prosecute all past and present Nigerian leaders over looting that they supervised while in power, recover their loots and deposit it in special account to be used to fund education, healthcare and infrastructure
- Reform the nation’s electoral body INEC by sacking and prosecuting the current INEC chairman, reconstitute the Nigerian electoral body INEC to remove corrupt individuals and partisan backed operatives appointed to manipulate elections. Establish diaspora voting rights for Nigerians outside the country
AGENDA 3: Once the electoral reforms and all other reforms listed above are done by the interim government within 2 years, a free and fair election should be conducted to usher in a new Nigeria founded on justice, equity and fairness….
This is what I believe Nigerians should protest and agitate for…. This is what must be done now to salvage the country and put it on the path of greatness….
IPOB AGENDA/BIAFRA AGENDA/IBO SUPREMACIST AGENDA is regime change by any means available.....🤣 🤣 🤣 Lmao. I hope the OP will come out to participate in the protest on August 1st. Don't hide behind your key board or Smart phone. I want to see you reporting from the streets.
RoyalUc: If you knew what integrity means, you won't hold such narrow minded opinion.
For instance, Reno was on the other camp, and people from the other tribe hailed him while your camp hated him. Today, people from the other camp hate him while those in yours hail him.
Situations change. People change but truth will always be truth
Don't get it twisted. Confusedlady belongs to NO camp. My only camp is the TRUTH. In my opinion the writer of this long article has NO integrity. He is only after his stomach by saying what the obidients and Ibo want to hear for his selfish interest. Pretending to form wokedness. He is a QUISLING and sooner or later he will get his comeuppance from the headless facist mob. I wish him well.
The author of this article is a QUISLING. You are free to hiss as much as you like. He should ask Victor Banjo what was his fate for being a quisling. He will be given his adequate reward for telling lies and trying to betray and twist history. The article is full of lies and half truths to please his obidient masters. I wish him good luck but as Victor Banjo discovered in the end -it never ends well.... When you ride on the back of a Tiger,you will most likely end up in the belly of the Tiger....
RoyalUc: The Planned Days Of Rage Protest; Conspiracy Of Yoruba Elites And Demonization Of Igbos
I am a proud Yoruba man representing the ‘Fadeyi Constituency’ of life in Nigeria (my catchphrase for all the powerless and opportunity-less in a land blessed with so much), and I was very happy to finally read a poignant piece from a much-respected Yoruba man like Babafemi Badejo, who broke ranks with many Yoruba elites to speak the truth to our brother Yoruba in power.
Thank God for the few true Omoluabi Yorubas remaining, like Babafemi Badejo (a former UN Representative), who show that there are still a few Yoruba elites left who can see the developing dark clouds over our nation with frankness and call it what it is, instead of joining many of their elite ethnic brothers and sisters in throwing the Igbos under the bus for everything about the reaction of suffering Nigerians to the unbearable pain our whole nation is going through, regardless of tribe and clime.
I have observed that these days, many of us Yorubas, now that we are in power, seem so blinded by our love for our tribe and ethnic region, buoyed up by our previously hidden hatred for the Igbos, that we now automatically adopt the position to blame the Igbos or Peter Obi first for anything that happens in Nigeria today that is against the status quo. Many Yoruba elites do not seem to notice or care that the Igbos are not in power, and Peter Obi, the so-called ‘Igbo leader,’ has not even taken the posture of being the leader of the opposition other than speaking out occasionally against unacceptable policies of this government as is his right. As far as they are concerned, the Igbos are the demons behind every ill wind they feel, even if it is a result of the direct actions of a government that is going nowhere fast despite its cast of very smart Yoruba elites.
Truth be told, after listening to and watching some of the most cerebral Yoruba leaders I know throw reason to the wind in their collective disdain for Igbos, I was beginning to think that there must be a conspiracy among Yoruba elites to play the ostrich over the underperforming administration of Tinubu that has left most Nigerians in more poverty and hopelessness.
Rather than speaking truth to power, most Yoruba elites, who were very vocal against GEJ’s failures and Buhari’s backward-moving government, have now chosen to hide under the banner of ethnic jingoism by always blaming one tribe (especially the Igbos) while ignoring the dissatisfaction among Yorubas with the current status quo. All of a sudden, it is unpatriotic to demonstrate against the rising cost of living, and all we hear now is, “if the Igbos want to demonstrate, let them go to their land,” as if all Igbos have had an ethnic meeting and declared they want to come down and burn down Lagos, Ibadan, and maybe my Ijebu Mushin too.
It’s just all weird to me.
Take this planned Days of Rage Protest, for instance. We can all see that many high-profile Nigerians, including well-known Yoruba men like Sowore, Babatunde Gbadamosi, and Adeyanju, are behind this protest, along with some Igbos and Hausas. However, many of my Yoruba elites have taken the default position that it is only the Igbos planning it against their own Yoruba man, President Tinubu. They have chosen to believe their own lies that the only objective of this planned protest is for Igbos to burn down the properties of Yorubas in Lagos, even when it is their own fellow Yoruba men who have carried this planned protest in their heads! This is most unfortunate.
Listening to many prominent Yoruba leaders, one might get the impression that only the Igbos are planning to demonstrate and that they intend to burn down Lagos or Ibadan out of envy for what the Yorubas have achieved.
Frankly, I think it’s disgusting for some of our elders who know better to take that position. I cannot believe I am now hearing previously violent NADECO members, who even detonated bombs during their own fight for democracy, speak with a straight face that anyone who protests will go home in a body bag. Ha!
Truth is, if we want to condemn a potentially violent demonstration, let’s all condemn it regardless of which tribe we assume is leading it. And to be perfectly clear, I personally condemn the planned Days of Rage protest in the strongest terms. I condemn it not because I oppose demonstrating against this government (I believe we should all protest against Tinubu’s government to let him know how bad things are and make the leaders do right by us, as is allowed in any democracy), but I condemn it because of the connotations of violence evoked by the themes “Days of Rage” and “Revolution Now” unfortunately adopted by the organizers.
I cannot support a protest with the theme to do rage or to bring everything down, no matter how strongly I believe this government should get a taste of its own protest medicine. That’s why I am not supporting it, but I am also all for the idea of protests. 100%.
Only a naive person would assume that anything called ‘Days of Rage’ or ‘Revolution Now’ (an organization run by a known Yoruba man campaigning for the release of a murderous insurrectionist like Nnamdi Kanu) will be peaceful. The protest’s name alone evokes chaos, and no responsible patriot should support it.
That’s why I am not for Days of Rage, but I do believe that citizens have a right to protest peacefully, and they should protest peacefully against the current government. It has brought us nothing but economic hardship while they build N20 billion houses and increase their fleet of private jets and drive around in N200 million naira cars paid for by the resources of the people! Yes, we should peacefully protest a situation of runaway inflation and mass unemployment and mass hunger in the land! I am just not for any Days of Rage or Revolution Now since they may cause more deaths and violence by their mere characterization through their slogans.
However, for any of my Yoruba brothers and sisters to divert attention from the catalysts of disaffection that gave rise to this planned protest by playing the tribal blame game is unacceptable to me.
Yoruba leaders who claim only the Igbos are planning to demonstrate hypocritically downplay the fact that their own Yoruba sons and brothers are prominent in organizing this protest. Sowore is very visible; he coined the phrase ‘Day of Rage,’ organized Twitter meetings to decide on demands, and published those demands, including the release of Kanu.
Yet, it’s the Igbos who want to take Tinubu down? What a laugh.
Make no mistake: there are indeed many reasons to protest in this nation right now. GEJ did not put us through 50% of what we are enduring now before the same Tinubu called Nigerians to the streets to discredit Jonathan’s government and ultimately cost him his second term.
What is good for the goose is good for the gander. It’s supposed to be a democratic right to protest, but now our so-called democratic Yoruba leaders are threatening death to anyone who dares to protest. They are rolling out sacred traditional institutions to intimidate citizens by doing 15 days of Oro—a period longer than ever before.
Let’s be clear: while the chosen name for the planned protest is unfortunate, the organizers have not committed any violence yet. They have not attacked anyone and have not stated any violent intentions. They asked for safe passage and a place to demonstrate, but our Yoruba elites consider it insulting that they are asking for permission to use public places or even for water (which, while ridiculous, shows they want to come in peace). You can’t just shut down a planned demonstration out of fear of violence.
Sure, we had violence in the past with EndSARS, but everyone forgets that the violent aftermath was caused by the violent shooting of protesters in the first place. If the government didn’t shoot youthful protesters who had been peacefully protesting for two weeks, maybe we would not have had the mindless violence that followed.
We cannot overcompensate for previous violent protests by saying nobody can protest now that Yorubas are in power.
I am most unhappy about this and will keep saying so. I am embarrassed by the number of prominent Yorubas who have become murderous defenders of an underperforming government just because it’s one of their own.
I am hearing SANs and State elders threatening instant death and shonpono against demonstrators, and I shudder.
What’s going on, you all? Is your love for Tinubu so strong that you refuse to see the reality in which most Nigerians live? Are you so committed to defending the unacceptable status quo that you are ready to throw all Igbos under the bus just to keep others oppressed? Are your own children and relatives not suffering under the hardship imposed by a man who promised us deliverance? If people want to demonstrate, should you not be encouraging them while urging them to be non-violent?
My name is Ope Banwo, the Mayor Of Fadeyi and while I am very proud of my Yoruba heritage as a double prince from Ikala, in Ijebu Imushin, I am most unhappy at the embers of ethnicism being fanned across the country against other tribes, especially to the igbos.
The Octopus News
By Ope Banwo, Mayor of Fadeyi
QUISLINGS ~they are easily identified. See how he is pressing their mumu buttons.
gidgiddy: And Nigeria has only gone down the drain since then, both for the victorious and the crushed. A sad story of a country that should never have been created
You are free to open as many lamentation threads as you want. Just make sure you get your facts right. Don't try to revise history and you are okay with me. Warmest regards.
maestroferddi: I will let your manifest vacuity slide...
Just like I said before, it will amount to an unconscionable climb down for me to cross swords with a person of such mental suboptimality like you...
Maybe, when you grow to handle the most basic of deductive reasoning and critical thinking, maybe I could consider whether you are worth any semblance of time investment...
Now take a hike and keep moving,,,,
Your betters in the Ibo supremacist agenda have crossed me on these boards and fled with their tails between their legs like Odumegwu Ojukwu when he fled to Ivory Coast. I have already assessed you severally on these boards and you come across as a mentally deficient loud mouthed,chest beating Lilliputian dwarf. When you are ready to engage and tap a superior mind you are free to name the place and time. I assure you of your total obliteration. Until that time you are henceforth ignored.
gidgiddy: Whether it was a reprisal coup or not, the person who led it was put on the N20 note, had Airports and buildings named after him. His boys that he led went to conduct several other coups, became Presidents and are still relevant in society even to this day
The point is that Nigeria honoured reprisal coup plotters who conducted far more bloody coups. So coups were never the problem, ethnicity was the problem. If you are coup plotter and you are from the East, you will be called out and vilified
But if you are a coup plotter from the North and kill far more people, they will rush and put you on the national currency, name Airport after you, give you national honours and Chieftaincy titles, even elect you President
Nigeria we hail thee 😆 🤣 😂 😹 😆
So are you suggesting they should put the rebel leader Emeka Ojukwu on a national currency or they should name a monument after the blood thirsty ifeajuna or Nzeogwu? I don't understand your logic. However I can tell you for free that history books are written by the victorious. The Ibo embarked on a road to perdition on January 15th 1966 which terminated in their crushing defeat and conquest in 1970 at the termination of the civil war. You were a conquered,crushed and defeated rebellious nation. Accept these facts,stop trying to revise history,stop shopping for pity and move on for heavens sake. Every day you come here to open threads while wailing and gnashing your teeth like a rain drenched chicken. It is no longer interesting. Give it a rest.
We still remember that Buhari, Tinubu, Oyegun, Soyinka, Oshomole, etc once protested.
So why is he making it look like a crime to protest?
He did not say it is a crime to protest. He said Buhari Tinubu,Oyegun,Oshiomole,and Soyinka led protests in 2012. Since Peter Obi has endorsed the proposed August 1st protests he should equally lead from the forefront. Simple.
maestroferddi: I cannot condescend so low to bandy words with a nonentity like you who has chosen to operate like a useful idiot for unscrupulous politicians.
You are now Kenneth Okonkwo's mouthpiece...
You don't want to go this abusive route with because I will destroy you. I will put you and a naughty chair and school you with superior logic like the little scoundrel you are. You have nothing logically to say hence your retort to your usual abusive games. Go back and read Kenneth Okonkwo's resignation letter then come back for more lectures from a superior mind. Peter Obi lacks any leadership qualities according to KennethOkonkwo. Simple.
gidgiddy: Whatever led to it does not change the fact that it has happened and is part of Nigerian history
What amuses me is that you will not see anyone call it "Hausa/Fulani coup" or attach ethnicity to it. Also, all its participants are honoured today in one way or the other, just for being successful coup plotters
The July 1966 was a reprisal/revenge coup. That is how it is refered to. Stop trying to revise history and play the victim. The Ibo played with fire and got burned. You got what you asked for. Move on....
maestroferddi: ANo great leader acts impulsively and that is what you want Obi to do to make you happy and he will not do it...
Does it in any way occur to you that there could be things Obi knows that you can never have a clue about...
Unfortunately for you. Kenneth Okonkwo does not agree with you that Peter Obi belongs in the class of great leaders. Kenneth Okonkwo says Peter Obi lacks the capacity to be a great leader and I tend to agree with him. From his abysmal record in governance in Anambra state to the Akwuzu massacre under his watch to the Pandora scandals and his propensity to tell lies and pass them off as the truth. He lacks the capacity to lead or be called great.
franchasofficia: People like you will never know what great men like Goodluck Jonathan and Peter Obi did for Nigeria.
Peter Obi had the whole key to burn Nigeria down in his palms with just a word or two, which the APC understood and expected but Obi shocked them just like Goodluck Jonathan did. You saw how Buhari led government deployed soldiers all over Nigeria in anticipation shortly after the criminal Presidential election result was announced at midnight.
You people's ungrateful and ingratitude towards peaceful Igbos is the reason Nigeria will remain where it is for long until you demon possessed Nigerians of that side repent of your evil ways and start calling evil evil and not another name, please I am done with you, have a great day.
🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 Lmao.... Peaceful and Ibos in the same sentence? A rebellious, stiff necked people that waged a treasonous war against the country and still continue to wage a war covertly and overtly. A people that on January 15th 1966 instigated the disruption of a political process disguised as a fake revolution and murdered all the leaders of all other tribes while cunningly and tribally saving all their own corrupt leaders. A mischievous and duplicitous people that are surreptitiously promoting regime change through the proposed August 1st protests while pretending to be uninterested Never mention Ibo and peace in the same sentence.
gidgiddy: And I'm sure it will be only January 1966 coup is the only thing you will talk about, because you can never talk about July 1966 coup. Anything that does not allow you to talk about Igbo, is not worth talking about
Stop being clever by half. One thing led to the other. Every action has a reaction. Every action has its consequence. You can't brutally and viciously use your wing of the army to kill leaders of other tribes while duplicitously protecting corrupt people like Nnamdi Azikiwe and not face reprisals. Stop playing the victim. You got what you deserved. When you play with fire you get BURNED!
franchasofficia: Kenneth Okonkwo's outburst and exit is mainly as a result of two things he expected Peter Obi to do which Obi did not, and they are:
1.) Ordering Obidients to challenge Tinubu's stolen victory through nationwide protest instead of relying on Nigeria's corrupt and compromised judiciary to give him justice. I understand his point here.
Kenneth Okonkwo expected this from Obi and Obi instead sued for peace, which Kenneth Okonkwo and some other Obi supporters didn't like and reason many started leaving. They expected Obi to command his supporters to start a protest that would lead to national uproar or something.
2.) Kenneth Okonkwo expected Peter Obi to completely hijack the Labor Party leadership structure to handpick the NWC and dictate the direction the party should go.
Peter Obi doesn't have such ideology and you cannot force a peaceful man to become violent just because his opponents are violent.
This is why Kenneth Okonkwo believed that Peter Obi can't bring his dream of dismantling the evil APC to reality because he knew like other Nigerians that Peter Obi won 2023 Presidential election but failed to protect the votes and winning Nigerians handed over to him via the polls, so he still believes that Peter Obi can't protect people's votes in coming elections even if he wins again, and this is simply because he sees Peter Obi as a too peaceful man who cannot match the evil men in APC who need more violence and fire to push them away.
Those are his own beliefs and he is right to have such belief but Peter Obi won't turn violent just to please supporters like Kenneth Okonkwo, that's the truth.
You cannot use corruption to end corruption.
You cannot use thuggery to end thuggery.
You must apply a different tactic, which is what Obi and we Obidients are doing.
Funny enough most of us Obi supporters known as Obidients are not members of Labor Party, we don't believe in partisan politics that led Nigeria to where it is today
Peter Obi is NOT the man of peace,you make him out to be. Under his administration as Anambra state Governor the greatest form of genocide took place at Akwuzu and in his usual lack of leadership quality pretended not to know what was going on. You may like to follow the link below 👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇
gidgiddy: On July 29th 1966, one of the bloodiest military coups in Nigerias history occured. Young military officers of Nothern extraction, led Lt Colonel Murtala Mohammed, staged a coup that that would claim over 300 lives, mostly Igbos. Prominent people who died in the coup include the military head of State, General Aguiyi-Ironsi, and Military Governor of the Western Region, Lt Colonel Fajuyi.
There was widespread killing of officers from the East in places like Kaduna Barrack, Abeokuta Barrack, Ikeja Barrack. The coup succeeded in the North and Western Region, but had little effect in the East and Midwest Region's. Major Yaradua was to lead the coup from Enugu Barrack, but was told that there was no way him and his men would be able to make it out of the East alive, surrounded by millions of Igbos if he tried such, so he shelved the plan.
However, one of the most remarkable things about July 29th 1966 coup is despite the coup being very bloody, many of its participants such Murtala Mohammed, TY Danjuma, IBB, Buhari, Abacha, all went on to be relevant in Nigeria, even to this day.
Murtala Mohammed would later become Military Head Is state, and has Airports, Highways and buildings named after him. He was even put on the N20 note. Danjuma would become Chief of Army Staff and retired in his 40's. He is a billionaire and still very influential. Buhari and IBB would become Military heads of state, with Buhari getting elected twice as civilian President. Yaradua would become no 2 man in Obasanjo's military regime, and went to become a very influential man who paved the way for his younger brother to become President. Abacha also would also become Military Head Of State
As bloody as the July 29 1966 coup was, the officers that participated in it are the ones who still control Nigeria
You are an Ibo supremacist hypocrite! You are trying to commemorate the anniversary of the July 29 1966 military coup but mischievously avoided talking about the January 15th 1966 coup carried out by the Military wing of the Ibo which was the precursor of the revenge coup of July 1966.
On January 15th 1966 Major Nzeogwu,Major Ifeajuna, Major Timothy Onwategwu, Chris Anuforo,Humphrey Chukwuka,Don Okafor and the peripheral and misled Ademoyega struck claiming a phantom revolution and murdered in cold blood the Prime Minister Tafawa Balewa,Ahmadu Bello,Ladoke Akintola,Festus Okotie eboh,Samuel Ademulegun, Zakariya Maimalari,Mohammed Abogo,James Pam,Lateefat Ademulegun, Ahmed Ben Musa,Hafsatu Bello,Zarumi Sardauna, Ahmed Pategi,Colonel Ralph Shodeinde, Sergeant Oyewole Police constable Yohanba Garkawa,Lance corporal Musa Nimzo,Police constable Akpan Anduka,Again Lai,and Phillip Lawande amongst so many others.
The Ibos that carried out this mass slaughter of human beings masquraded as a revolution in their usual duplicitous nature protected and ensconced their own political and military leaders like Azikiwe,Okpara,Orizu,Ojukwu and Ironsi. This is what led to the reprisal/ revenge coup of July 1966 coup that you ate now hypocritically celebrating and playing the victim. Every action attracts a reaction. Stop playing victim because you started the slaughter by slaughtering other tribes political and military leaders.
Peter Obi has failed to address the elephant in the room. Kenneth Okonkwo completely destroyed Peter Obi's reputation that he lacks leadership qualities. Peter Obi needs to go back and re-read that missive again. When Okupe and Balami jumped ship and abandoned Obi and the Labour Party, Peter Obi did not react like this because they left the party calmly and with dignity. Kenneth Okonkwo on the other hand has left the party,swinging a sledge hammer at Peter Obi's reputation and the Labour Party structure in order to bring the roof down. He not only said Peter Obi lacks leadership qualities, he claimed that Peter Obi as a president of Nigeria would be a complete failure!
DesChyko: It's not put paper over cracks. It is paper over cracks. Use simpler phrases you understand.
Kenneth Okonkwo is entitled to his opinion. The same Bwala who is now your darling doesn't believe Tinubu will get it right even in 30 years. But here you are, lapping up his every words today.
But let's focus on your principals, who are adamant that any crack exists in Nigerian economy. Showing them the true situation of things is enough work to keep you busy instead of looking for what is not missing.
On the paper over cracks issue. I wish to inform you that where your knowledge of English phrases,texts and lexicon end is the beginning of my own knowledge. You are too little to correct my English. In English composition and comprehension beside me you are a Lilliputian. In fact you are less than a Lilliputian dwarf!
You have totally failed to address the elephant in the room. The Labour Party that Peter Obi hijacked by bribing Julius Abure with money is collapsing and falling apart all around him. Kenneth Okonkwo said -PETER OBI LACKS LEADERSHIP QUALITIES! What statement could be more damaging to Obi's reputation than that?
Shawarmagirl: Those who want H.E Peter Obi to use force and give order to the Obident to act are feeling disappointed hence, thinking Peter Obi is weak and leaving. Nigerians are solidly behind Obi QED
Please speak for yourself. Which Nigerians? Kenneth Okonkwo completely destroyed Peter Obi in that letter stating that He lacks leadership qualities ! He said if he had won the presidency he could not have held things together because of his leadership flaws. What could be more damaging than that. When Okupe and Balami left Labour ,Peter Obi nnever tried to explain himself like this because they left peacefully. Kenneth Okonkwo on the other hand left Labour Party and tried to pull the roof down on his way out. I don't see Obi staying much longer in Labour Party because the whole structure is collapsing on his head. Labour Party is on its last legs.
franchasofficia: My man, the one man army, the man whose silence is louder than thunderstorm
Kenneth Okonkwo want Peter Obi to encourage Obidients to use violence to grab power like APC Moslem party.
Kenneth Okonkwo want Obi to become a party hijacker, another Bola Tinubu. Nigeria cannot get it right through our usual politicking by lies, propaganda, thuggery, use of agberos, Boko Haram and Fulani terrorists to grab power.
Kenneth we understand that you are in a hurry to end the evil operation of APC, but remember that you cannot use corruption to end corruption. You cannot use thuggery to end thuggery. We must embrace Peter Obi's new way of playing politics which shuns violence and political thuggery and hijacking of political structures using money and whatnot.
We wish you all the best in your new future political endeavors, we the obedient family will continue to stand solidly behind Peter Obi the rock, we mueve
It sounds as if you did not read what Kenneth Okonkwo wrote in his resignation letter or you are just like Peter Obi trying to put paper over cracks. Kenneth Okonkwo categorically stated that PETER OBI LACKS LEADERSHIP QUALITIES AND THAT EVEN IF HE HAD WON THE PRESIDENTIALELECTION, HE WOULDN'T HAVE LASTED AS A PRESIDENT! That is a completely damaging statement. You may like to remove your rose tinted glasses and re-read Kenneth Okonkwo's missive .
Iceberg3: You are just laughing at and making mockery of yaself cos your darling daddy Buhari started in anpp then moved to CPC before finally moving to APC but as usual,it means nothing to y'all as long as he ain't Igbo...only Igbo magana dey blow up Una skirt nah 😁😁😁😁
I am mocking a political jobber who changes political party the way a chameleon changes its skin....
Mentorme: You have not answered the "why" question.
I hope you know how many parties Mr president and former president has been to?
Set yourself free!
People that created political parties and then went into an alliance compared to a man changing to different parties the way a chameleon changes colour. The difference is clear like night and day now......
redsun: This guys spoke with all the conviction that he knows the difference between good and bad when he was campaigning for labour at the at the last bogus election. But seeing him today as a dog that returns to its vomit shows that there is hardly any Nigeria politician that has true principle and ideology.
They are all looking for where the honeypot is, rather than what they can offer to improve the lives of suffering the masses.
When you point a finger,four point back at you.. .😄
Bebigiby1: You and helinues belong to the same club so no need to bother about your comment here…. Your tribal propaganda has been exposed for all to see…. Many reasonable Nigerians can see through your deceptions now….
🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 Lmao...... Confusedlady stands alone. Confusedlady is affiliated to nobody. Confusedlady says it how it is.
Now to your inane post....it is amusing to see an arch tribalist and Ibo supremacist calling someone else a tribalist. Everybody sees clearly that the stiff necked rebellious tribe that surreptitiously support anarchy and insurrection are the ones behind this planned protest. Your ultimate aim is not good governance but destruction of the Nigeria state through regime change. What you could not achieve through the ballot and the courts you aim to achieve through anarchy and mob action insurrection. We await Thursday August 1st eagerly when you will recieve your comeuppance.
Coldie: I am pro Nigeria and I respect the law of rotation of power, Tinubu has served 4years and if Peter obi was to win in 2027 it won’t be fair for him to serve 8years as president, as a result of the rotation of power agreement between the north and the south.
I as an igbo man, I give my word to the north that Peter Obi would only serve one term, he might come back another time to complete his 2nd term as President. I say this as an igbo man and I put it to everyone listening that Peter obi is a honorable man and he would keep to this agreement.
Peter Obi would serve his first 4years and prove to Nigerians that they have made a big mistake not voting an igbo man. Peter obi would serve his 4years and nobody would hear any agitation for Biafra, so any thoughts on Peter obi wanting to break Nigeria as an igbo man would be proven as lies.
I put it to every Nigerian reading this, if Peter obi rules Nigeria and the next election was to hold and there’s any rigging or malpractices, the igbo man should never be trusted ever again.
I want to prove to Nigerians that there’s a reason y before igbo marginalisation started Nigeria used to be great, whether people say we are responsible directly or indirectly for what happened to Nigeria, allow us fix it. I assure all of you that we would fix it in 4years.
If Nigerians see the 4years and say Peter obi should continue, we won’t be able to do it as we already have our word and we intend to keep it.
Tell us what you think of this
🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 Lmao...... Even you know that nobody takes this kind of post serious... even you the OP know that the day an Ibo becomes President of Nigeria is the day Nigeria dies as a country..... Nobody,and I repeat nobody will trust the Ibo with the authority and power of an executive president of Nigeria.....
