He is welcome back.

I guess the attempt to strike a deal with the US through Macron to attend UNGA didn't work out.

Imagine my President being in another country whose president has gone to a meeting of world leaders, a gathering my president is not attending for no reason except that he is on a working vacation.

What exactly does "working vacation" mean at a time when world leaders are headed to gather to discuss opportunities and bi/multi-lateral relationships and the president goes elsewhere for a 'working vacation' with no apparent purpose?
Working vacation to go and do what exactly?

Have we not gone past this type of politics in Nigeria?

We keep taking one step forward, 10 steps back.

And the fellow party members and officials of the crass Councillor will not caution him and call him to order.

PDP didn't obstruct people like APC has done in Benue, now Imo.

Nigerians political parties need to take a step back from hooliganism.

He should be arrested, tried and sent to jail for vandalism, intimidation and constituting public nuisance.

This is a smarter man than Soludo.

If Obi and Soludo didn't have issues before now then it's obvious Soludo is being used to distract Obi.

Imagine contesting for Presidency yet stuck in the mud with & battling a state government. Simply ignore them!

If a whole drug dealer with no certificate could get there with all the dragging he got, what is loan or no loan?

Obi is being distracted from the politics he should be busy playing and it's funny that he cannot see it.

Face Tinubu squarely! Leave Anambra state govt that has never hidden their romance with APC/Tinubu.

Brandiebird:
I don’t understand the focus on men’s opinions only because you’re having a human experience.

I think you have fear in you and you’ve masked it with all these other things. Like most people you have a fear of rejection.

The real answer to your dilemma is that you get what you give to life. We are social creatures so being alone will impact you in terms of health and wellbeing.

You have to be willing to give time, energy, and effort in order to receive those things back.

Start with just socialising with people. Join some clubs and groups that align with the things you enjoy. Become comfortable with the social environment. Learn how to be honest, and vulnerable with others.

It’s better that you take on this journey now before you become too busy, old, or tired to do anything about your situation.

If you think it’s hard being alone in your 30s then you will struggle with that in old age 60+.

I think the very first step is getting to know yourself; what you like, what you stand for, and what your values are. Then use that as a guide to find your own tribe.

Don't put in assumptions.

He reasonably detailed himself. Fear has nothing there.

Getting to know himself, how?? More than he has known himself of 37years? Even after detailing himself and describing his regimented lifestyle?

People just bring in unnecessary angles to relatively straightforward things.

@OP, there are very much people like you.

But where there's a difference is that you don't have any poison? You don't womanize, you don't smoke, how can you not drink at least?

What we can be making is not the problem.

The country's capacity to earn is not the issue. What happens to the money when earned!

All the ones that have been earned already nko?

While you all whyne about his English.. Don't overlook the fact that he said he is a gambler..

They are always needing money. It's why I stay away from a certain cousin of mine.

They may be decent in looks and all that, until the day they think they have the sure odds to win N1billion, then the devil takes over. They will do anything at that point... absolutely ANYTHING!

All gamblers are prone to crime.

Jakumo:
In the absence of adequate security, discretion is the better part of valor.

Hide your money when you are surrounded by poverty, if you value your life over the need to show off.

I agree the thoughts of him not going with the car crossed my mind but that is a direct indictment on security apparatus of the state that citizens are not free to move around without fear of harrassment.

You can't leave the criminal and blame the victim for a crime committed against him.

It's illogical.

You need to modify your comment.

Jakumo:
Hey, well the man felt compelled to pose with his rich man's car in a country where the streets are swarming with hungry people that become enraged when they see signs of great wealth passing in their midst.

The poseur drew attention to the fact that his car is worth more than the lifetime earnings of the entire mob that besieged his car, so he should consider himself lucky that he was not simply kidnapped for ransom and subjected to a series of corrective floggings while in custody.

Did you make this comment with the implications this has on NFPL, Inter Lagos FC and Onikan Stadium as whole in mind?

How do we continue to canvass for more patronage of Nigerian Football leagues by fans, supporters and general public when thi kind of things are allowed to happen without any kind of reprimand for the culprits? They should be fished out and dealt with.

You're quite insensitive and myopic.

CEO everywhere until we hear stories that touch.

Even as a Nigerian, my trust for Nigerians is diminishing..

As a country, we need to say NO to fraudstars.

How do you get Impressed by people who spend lavishly yet, have no jobs or business? They should be ostracized.

You like good life but won't work for it legitimately.

Except you know a tribe in Nigeria with such surname, Nigerians should deny this man.

Drforsuiciders:
Oga rest wit ur emotion, as a legend he was, how many of his people celebrated him when he was alive

Deal with your emotions son.

But this is too negative.

I won't click your content clickbait to watch whatever no sense lie you put up in the video there.

Look at comments allowing the German news outlet get away with it. Nigerians, do you eat maggot infested tomatoes? Why catching cruise with a thing like this?
Other countries would have gotten on their neck by now and make them feel the heat.

They need to take down that lie and apologize!

Drforsuiciders:
Journey ended life goes on
His people never cared for him when he was alive, baba dun die na owambe dem dun prepare. Mad people he had

Don't say what you don't know.

If nobody else did, his beloved wife, Joke Silva cared for him until the end.

Weldone Joke Silva,

I followed your story before his death and each time I saw an almost unrecognisable Olu Jacobs, I saw you there by his side, holding him.
In fact, in one of the pictures I saw last year, it was through you I recognized that was Olu Jacobs.

You are a rare woman and you have my respect.

He most likely went to France to broker a deal through middleman Macron to attend the UNGA without harrassment.

I'm guessing Macron couldn't pull that through with the US.

Nigeria, a dumping ground for all things crooked!

Weldone NBA.

Sensor these contents in movies.

People will start convulsing about how movies are not the cause. Yes, it may not be the cause. But plays a huge part in how people get to know details about it and keeps it fresh in people's consciousness.

Even elrufai himself knows that any federal govt can do many things and get away with it in the name of "National Security".

elrufai is capable of inciting violence during the elections.


I may not like the APC govt, but I think that vicious little imp elrufai is best locked away.

The sky simply won't fall.

Cmeo:
Is this write being prepared to justify rigging for the on-coming election?

If others let it slide, that's how they'd keep inflating the bogus lie until it becomes an accepted "truth" that can't be overturned.

Just watch how they will then line up underaged kids during elections to make up for the inflated numbers.

rapcy:
You're smart, that is why Tinubu will suprise the North this coming election. And I'm very sure this same North would come out to form they voted Tinubu after he has disgraced them.

That anomaly in the statistics needs to be looked into.

The north is hoodwinking the entire country with that population lie!

faceland:
It was 2015 that Buhari used millions of children voters. I met one in 2023 and he can't vote again due to irregularities with the date of birth on his PVC and other docs like NIN and BVN. He couldn't renew his voter's card.

Buhari was just a criminal that was willing to burn the whole of Nigeria if he didn't win.

It's very obvious north do not have the population they claim.

How can they have the population they claim and still be lining up child voters in their numbers during elections?!! They simply use child voters to cover up the obvious lie.

The same template that says north has more population in Nigeria.

I still wonder why the north has more population, yet the only region with child voters every election year.

I ask, where then are the population?

The lie will still crumble. People are mistaken landmass to mean population.

North may have the landmass, they DO NOT have the most population. North that you can travel for hours and see only one small settlement with a handful of people, then vast lands again with nothing on it.

That statistics is bloated. Let Niger and Chad indigenes return home and let's have a strict census of the north again, without children and ghost registrations.

Real voodoo economics.

Tinubu has not done well at all.

People wey no get sense.

See how many crazy policies in so short a time!

- Remove subsidy
- Float Naira
- Increase tax

The other day, they were talking about how State governors should be the ones paying subsidy. Invariably agreeing on the need to actually have subsidy.

Tinubu got Nigeria's economy really wrong.

Zeebuy:
Nowhere in the entire post was Obi mentioned buy urchins can't go without mentioning Obi's name. Obi is your daddy's daddy, Obi is greater than a billion Tinubus put together

Only if you had taken just a little time to read and digest the post you quoted, you'd not be barking at me.

Opposition need to be playing real politicking.

Nigerians across board have never felt this hungry, not even under buhari!

The worst thing APC fears is protest. Because they know the power of it! They rode on it to power.

Opposition need to Cease the day! Let a protest gain momentum!

focus7:
Atiku has nothing to campaign with than targeting Tinubu every day.

To get to power APC targeted Good luck Jonathan everyday.

In fact, not just Jonathan but his family. Patience Jonathan was put in the spotlight with heavy scrutiny everywhere she went and everything she did.

Atiku is trying better with opposition politics.

Obi is busy agreeing with every policy this government is making instead of giving it to them hot hot. When the entire country is displeased with subsidy removal, how can you say the govt is right? That you won't bring it back?! And you intend to have more votes than them?

Obi needs to get offensive. APC has found a way to corner Obi and keep him on the defensive, defending himself, his tenure as governor etc..
Drop that shell and drag this government out on their policies. It's a cheap way to get the masses behind you! This is the only way my current rating of him can go up.

Atiku still won't get my vote.

"“People are the victims of their own prejudice,” he wrote."

That last statement tells how much of a taquiyya this is.

Gumi can't fool me, election is around the corner. He is politicking.

Team A would win.

Team B do not have the powers by themselves. They have to consult. Also, members of Team A do not need incantations.

Atiku and Ameachi should have him substantiate this claim.

That is how people run their mouth.

Opposition is not playing opposition politics of not, the APC would have known thy have a real situation on their hands.

Once they point out your shallowness, you all go personal.

But a moment ago, you were analyzing, stay on the analysis and let's have a proper conversation, you want to trivialise it.
