APC focus on your loss

CSTRR:
That is not something to thank yourself over.

It's just common Sense.

Peter obi and ipob have nothing in common.

It's like saying they should thank you for supporting the super eagles.

Obviously those that think Peter obi and ipob are the same are slowpokes.

Omo I no get time to come follow you they argue
Belike you be twitter warrior

I no just get that time
Bye bye

CSTRR:
There is no correlation between obi and ipob.

It's like saying the super eeagles is ipob.

What I am saying is that, despite the fact that IPOB miscreants online has been throwing insult at Edo people over the past three to four years, we are not robbing it on Obi. So hope you understand now

Yves4real:
The way Edo people carry Peter Obi's matter for head ehn. My younger brother called me four days ago, and when I picked up, he didn't even greet me but just asked the question, "are you OBIdient?"
Most Christians, who constitute the majority in the state, as well as some traditionalists, are chanting "OBIdient."
I pray that the election will be allowed to take place in the state and that votes will count (I hope someone understand).

People might eat you raw if you mention Tinubu...you know how things are in Benin. Once we put out our neck for you, it's all out... Oshiomole knew how he won his victory in court. Edo people used to follow him to court anytime he had sitting. The second term, he cleared 18/18. He won in Edo central in the midst of Anenih the political God father of PDP in the state...it shows you that Edo people are very enlightened politically.

We will take your money sha

Na wetin day our mind we go still do you
We go run you street

Well in Edo we don't like when people come out to tell us what to do. Like you will just feel that once you cough we will start dancing to your tune.

Naturally Edo people don't know how to depend on government for much. So the moment you start feeling bossy, people in Edo will hate you. Oshiomole was in everyones heart in the past, the moment he wanted to be like Tinubu in Edo state, that was his end.

We also don't easily forget. Like in Edo state, once you are campaigning and you talk one word. People will write it down and use it against you when you fail to deliver. Since PDP showed us shege during Luckys time, we have told ourselves that it is better to be voting who we like not parties.

We don't like Tinubu. We remember how he campaigned vigorously for Buhari. Buhari is a disaster. Now he is not going around telling people how he wants to correct the mistake he gave us in the south for 7 years. He is shouting it is my turn. As if it's a monarchy from the south west.

We know Atiku is confused. Another thief loading. We don't want a northern rule in Atiku. The only way is to go Obi. Not like we like IPOB or how they misbehave, we hate injustice. We hate oppression.

Rest in Power Shinzo Abe....

Shugavee:
thank you! These pdp ibori people trying to deceive the public of the politics that happened in pdp 2015. Edevie fighting against okowa knowing fully well it was time for delta north, and uduaghan solidly behind him. Okowa stood his ground and fought against it. Now ibori’s camp claim that if not for ibori he wouldnt have won !! NONSENSE! Like they are the ones giving power. Mtcheww.

Okowa ran against uduaghan in either 2011 or so
But go an check you will see it...he ran when it wasn't his turn on or that of Delta north

TheSourcerer:
Hiroo Onoda
For 29 years after WWII ended, the dedicated Japanese soldier Hiroo Onoda refused to believe that the conflict was over. Instead, he hid out in the jungle of the Philippines and continued waging a war.

Onoda refused to believe that the war had truly ended until his former superior officer flew to where he was camped out. The officer confirmed the news and relieved Onoda from duty. He was eventually pardoned for the crimes he committed while he believed the world was still at war.

One reason I tell people
Don't mess with the Japanese

Iriruaga100:
There is a back gate after PG hostel that takes you to Uteh. Very big land

Yeah, I have been there. Close to the Chancellor lodge. Very big expanse of land...wetin uniben won use that land do sef

Lol

Wow


This Uteh is a very big community then. So Uteh that's along Upper mission has boundary with Uniben in Ekosodin...

Oh, maybe it's the ikpoba river that connects them at the interior

nedu666:
Lies. Lies and more lies

The diaspora started the movement on Obaseki second bid. They were the first to support him and put money into it....it was largely due to his land reform act.

Most of the people here condemning Obi has never led anything in their life. Nothing, not even cell leader in their church.

At least we have someone who made an investment that is still existing today and offering jobs to people.

We all know that the naira is useless now. Thanks to Buharinomics and his team APC dullards.

If I remember the lies enveloped in promises Tinubu made in 2015 when campaigning for Buhari, I laugh so much. I can't wait to hear the lies he want to tell now...

Edo state

There's a reason why we sit between the south west and south south and North. In Edo state, our voting patterns are not regular. we hate oppression and injustice so much. Edo people vote who they like. Edo people can vote PDP this Saturday for President and vote APC next Saturday for governorship.

Obaseki has seen that Edo is going towards Peter Obi. You guys will be shocked because the people pushing Obi are young people. Young people are mostly the bread winners of their families in Edo state. Young people are the reason why we are not eating ourselves over there. So when young people who are keeping the economy of a state alive are pushing towards Obi, the older folks know they have to listen. They have no choice than to be Obidient.

Andercruz:
I love your narration. Educative. Seems carefully researched, and recommendable for academic research.
Are you an academic? You sound more like one, sir.
I enjoyed the crisp insight.

No I am not one. I am just a lover of history. I am Edo by the way

gidgiddy:
Even the King of Agbor, Ikechukwu Keagborekuzi, has an Igbo name and surname

He has to explain at what point his Edo ancestors decided for their Edo surname and adopt Igbo surname

Well I transverse this delta north route very well and I can say that these people are Igbo. Majority of them are but not all. You have the Edo element in them. The Edo element are mostly in the elite of society and monarchy. It is the Edo element that wrote most of the early history of these people. Go to Agbor, you still see people answering Osazuwa, Edobor, Ihama and so many Edo names. Another thing that affected them is their long affinity to the Edo people. The Edo people had a great influence on their culture especially the monarchy.

If you study Benin interaction with her neighbors, the Benins usually have no business with the ordinary people, they usually go for the leaders of that society. Look at almost all Delta Igbo kings, they carry out their palace style like what you have in benin. Even okowas king has an Edo name instead of Igbo name...

Nevertheless, culture is the way of life of a people, the predominant culture in Delta north is Igbo. Hence most of them are Igbos

It is enshrined in the constitution of Lebanon that the President must be a Maronite Christian
The Prime Minister a Sunni Muslim
The deputy Prime Minister a Shia Muslim.


You must respect the rights of others. You cannot say a muslim Muslim ticket is not a problem. It is a problem not only now but in the future. It sets a very bad precedence in the country if it is allowed. It will lead to more disunity in the country. I don't trust the average northern Muslim anymore. This will even worsen the situation. It will aggravate the deepining crisis and encourage people to start looking out for themselves.

You guys pushing this Muslim Muslim ticket don't know what you are doing. If you knew, you won't be saying it

vicdom:
What are you even saying?? If Muslims share their votes between Atiku, Kwankwaso and Tinubu, how do you think they will be able to defeat christians?? No doubt, their population is more for obvious reasons but christian population is equally substantial. lets say 55% - 44%, others 1% according to Wikipedia.
The only problems is that the southerners do not actually bear the stress invole in voting, the reason they don't usually care about.

Stop quoting fake results
Which country is Muslim 55% and christian 44%. You better call down

Safyqueen:
And you think the north too are sleeping and they are not collecting their own PVC.

The same you will change mouth that day if Atiku defeated Tinubu squarely that Buhari rig the election for his Fulani brother.

Election is about wining and democracy is about number. If you don't know the north is even under-reported as regard population.
By the time the christains wake them up with this kind of semantics and all of them votes with reference to christains islamaphobic tendencies, no christain will ever win presidency again in this country because the number is not there.

Which wake the north. Is it not the north with scanty villages. You import people from Niger republic to vote and allow under age voting. You northerners are feeling yourselves too much. E go clear for una eyes....una go see

"The most embarrassing moment in my life"

On Thursday 9th, June 2022, i had to travel to Warri with my son to see my mother who was involved in an accident and see how she was doing. Done with the visit, i had to return back to Minna on Sunday 12th, June by train. Got to Ujevwu (Warri) train Station with my younger brother who also visited from Abuja. After dropping us, he went back home with the car while i and my son entered the train. I brought out my iPad and discovered i forgot my charger at home. So, i decided to go outside and see if i can get one before the train takes off, that was where trouble started.

As i got outside, i did not see any of such things being sold except food, drinks, facemask/handkerchiefs and some POS vendors. I had to return some calls i missed. As i was making the calls, i started noticing some odd things, i will mention them shortly, that caught my attention.

As passengers got to the train station, policemen, Civil defence, those on coloured jackets vest and some others who look like staff of Nigeria Railway Cooperation taking the passengers to a corner. They take them straight to the train without booking for ticket. I was hearing a staff shouting that passengers should go and book for their tickets. The ticketing officers were also calling passengers to book for their tickets. But all calls fell on deaf ears as it clearly shows a "Cartel" of ticket racketeering.
I brought out my phone to snap and make some videos for reference purpose. As i was doing so, one of the staffs and two security personnel of the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps, NSCDC) came to me and asked me to give them my phone. I asked if there was any problem. One of them asked me why was i snapping them? I should delete everything. I said its okay. As i deleted two, one of them said where is the video? As i was trying to scroll my phone, one of them grabbed my phone but i held tight to it. They started shouting, i should give them the phone, they tore my shirt, held my trouser, started dragging me with my trouser till my belt cut, slapped me, i was asking them what did i do? By now, others have joined in dragging me to the train. One of the Civil defence guys raised his gun as if to hit me and i asked him, what is my offence? They threatened to drop me off at their head office in Agbor to make statement. That i am a terrorist, they will take me to area commander and so on. I was looking at them and told them i did not steal, i did not kill, i did not fight them, i only snapped and made a video. If they see it as a crime, they should ask me to delete it and not slapping and treating me like a criminal. They took my phone from me.

They led me to one of the couches that was empty and asked me to sit down close to somebody who they called captain. They said i was not a passenger and repeated i was a terrorist. They demanded for my receipt, i gave it to them and told them my son is waiting for me where was allocated to us. One of them who looks intelligent and felt bad with the way i was treated, went to bring my son who saw me and started crying wondering what must have happened to his father. This is very unfortunate. The captain now asked me what happened, I explained to him and he said don't I know it's a crime to snap or video a public property without permission? I said I don't know. He asked me where do I work? I said I lecture at the Federal University of Technology, Minna, he checked my ID card and became worried. He called the one with my phone and told him they should resolve the matter amicably since I have identified myself. The one with my phone who I heard called Ibrahim and another one called Moses, kept boasting they will report the matter in Agbor so their oga will know they are working. I and my son were there till they got to Agbor. He came to me, asked me to delete all the photos and videos, and then one of them said I should write a statement. But the captain said no need. It was a HORRIFIC experience. Unfortunately, none of them had a name tag on them, but I recognize them.

I am giving these details so that Nigerians and the management of NRC should know about the rots in Ujevwu/Warri train station and take the necessary action. Serious ticket racketeering. It is a shame and very painful. I felt it, because if not that my son being with me I would have followed them to any length.

What I have written above can be investigated. It's a shame that a noble train project like this can be so corrupted. Sometimes, I wonder how some Nigerians behave. These are the same people that will accuse and abuse those in Govt.

When I used the train in Agbor I also noticed it. Infact I noticed that the security men would sell the seats allocated to them on every coach.

Russia now have their own coke with time it will spread too.

Spread to where?
How many Russian house hold items do you have in your house or buy from the stores

Well I can't say some artists are underrated. I will say maybe their time passed and they maybe need to reinvent their self. one hit song could bring them back again.

Nobody in the industry has voice like Wande Coal. Baba is good abeg. I don't think he is underrated, kids these days don't really know him. But I have been following him since 2008/2009.

As for Praiz, abeg me I don't know what he is singing abeg.

Adekunle is not underrated. He is getting enough attention.

Brymo, well I can say yes in a way. What most Nigerians are listening to now isn't what he is giving. You have to be in the realms of people like Cavemen, Asa, Johny Drille to appreciate brymo.

Erriga, been my bro since 2011. As a south south boy, I would pick Erriga first before olamide or phyno. listen to his songs, he drops lines. Mad lines sometimes I am like this guy is intelligent trust me. Erriga get word for mouth. His lyrics are well too raw, if you play am for radio na only beeep you go hear through out. Erriga is king in the south south Rap game. we've got other dudes like T west, Kaptain. These guys give us Joy.


Runtown is not underrated, dude was dropping bangers couple years ago....I think his split from Eric manny has been really brutal to his career. I pray he doesn't get forgotten like Sean Tizzle or iyanya.

Skales is like BEDC

Abdul05:
We are expecting political mass movement from North and south south ..


Tinubu all the way....

P0wer must come down south not up north..

Let us break the jinx that power belongs to the North...

Tinubu didn't care about the south in 2015
The south south don't care about him.
Just watch the votes
Even Buhari votes go plenty pass Tinubu own

Rest in peace Papa
May the waters of Olokun carry you to the realms of our ancestors

Bring my greetings to our kings on the other side.
Okhionwie Baba

adekolaelect:
and Later start wailing ,Agitating and Bitterness.

Wailing for what
I am not hungry bro
God has been faithful.
If I fit survive Buhari, who I no fit survive

adekolaelect:
You better join Oshinbade in selling Ice cream than to waste your time and Energy voting for Obi.

Don't worry
It's my vote. Let me spend it on who deserves it

TheAviator:
While I am a supporter of Tinubu, I still respect your decision to support Peter Obi as it is your right. After all, we are in a democracy. But I am sorry to be the bearer of 'bad news' sir. Here is the bitter truth, Peter Obi will not win 2023 Presidential election. While I am not certain about who will emerge as winner between Atiku and Tinubu, I am 100% certain Peter Obi will not win, and even Peter Obi knows he will not win.

Yes I support your decision to vote Tinubu. Yes Peter might not win, but trust me he will get some nice votes. This is good for our democracy. A third option. He is broadening the choice of the electorate. He might not get it this time, but he will get it again in due time. I am voting Peter Obi. It's a project and e get why. I am From Edo State and he is my best Shot

Na wa ooooo

ademola721gmai:
Story, so that the US will seamlessly have its way right? One will think they like the Taiwanese when their sole interest is to use Taiwan in countering China rise. The Taiwanese should use their brains. Ask Zelensky what he is going through now. If you think the US wouldn’t think twice before engaging a nuclear armed country like China- then you need to have your brain checked.

Do you know that the Kuomintang were the sole government of all China before they lost a civil war to the communist army led by Mao and his communist generals. The Kuomintang only moved to Taiwan and has not surrendered to the communist party. They were the only recognized representative of the Chinese people not until the change in policy in the 70s.

So the US isn't using Taiwan or pushing Taiwan, the US is only standing with a friend who believes in the same democratic values as she does.

Dsalvo:
Bro, I tire for this people OO. When is it wrong to respect and even fear iconic achievers who have done many great things despite what appears insurmountable obstacles?

Abeg Oyegun himself dare claims he deserves to be placed on the same pedestal with BAT?

Some of our southern brethren are just too irreverently envious of Yorubas.

Lol envious of your for what
Everyone who doesn't agree with you isn't Igbo or anti Yoruba. I only responded to the statement that Oyegun would be trembling before Tinubu. In the south south, trust me Tinubu doesn't have the weight you guys think he does in the south west and you just have to accept it.

It's not hate
It's the fact, he is irrelevant here

Dsalvo:
This is the kind of talk that confirms many of you have a chip on your shoulder about Yorubas.

So it is only Americans that may feel intimidated meeting Obama? First black POTUS and all that?

Please, is Tinubu the mate of Oyegun in politics, State craft or even the struggle for the democracy of Nigeria and the effort to liberate us from military tyranny?

What is wrong with you people and the inability to give a man his dues regardless of ethnic, religious or sectional affiliation?

Okay, I have heard you. Tinubu is a nobody to non-Yorubas and not even recognizable outside SW Nigeria.

Oyegun, on the other hand, is a global titan. The greatest Nigerian ever.

Well your Yoruba brother said Oyegun would be trembling before Tinubu. Awwwwuuuuuaaaaa..... Tremble before Tinubu

God forbid

babaolofin:
It is not a dirty statement, that is the fact. You don't know what you are talking about.

Which dirty fact
How can Oyegun be trembling before Tinubu
Wetin you day even talk
Is he the one feeding him

All this Nairaland people sef

Dsalvo:
Mate, you've got to be kidding. What are you? An adult victim of school yard bullying now perpetually obsessed with 'getting even' ?

Tinubu is always focused on his goal. He has no time or thoughts for Oyegun. It is Oyegun who will be trembling under Tinubu's stare.

Why would he tremble before Tinubu
The way you Yoruba people talk, you think it's everyone that is Yoruba. If Oyegun did not cow before Tinubu and got Akeredolu screened when he was chairman, why will he now cow before Tinubu. What kind of dirty statement is that.

If Tinubu has levels, it's for your Yoruba people in the west. We demystified him in Edo and all his cronies.... Tinubu no get one level outside his zone and you can see him begging votes from everyone.

You people should be calming down jooor
By the way APC has lost Edo state already in the Presidential election.
