My advice for you is stop being tribal when it comes to your future and that of your country.
After your believe the next thing i suggest you should value most is your Vote.

No i wont stop being tribal.....infact I'm just starting.
Why is it not tribal when PO support base is 99.9% ibos but it's tribal if yorubas support BAT. Except some few yorubas trying to be politically correct the majority of yorubas are behind BAT gidigba.
Afenifere are just bitter for nothing....it's not Tinubu that made them useless but Obj. He created YCE to water down afenifere influence in yorubaland.....he also deceived them into supporting him in 2003 only for him to renege on his promise to allow AD still control south west....it took the efforts of BAT to restore south west back to progressivism without Afenifere which most of them dont like.
If PO is not an igbo project like some of you want us to believe what then happened to the Biafra agitations that igbos have used to create enmity between them and other tribes.
You categorically told other Nigerians you want to leave the zoo but all of you have since become willing to be tenants in the zoo and are pretending other tribes are foolish enough to drop their candidates because Obi is on the ballot. Alas all the cry of biafra was to get to Nigerian presidency....

Thegoodone13:
. But his greatest mistake is chosen Muslim as VP. Nigeria has divided in religion line and Muslim Muslim ticket can't work. Atiku is Fulani Muslim from North where Buhari come from and its turn on southern to be the president. The only alternative is Obi.

No
Choosing shetimma was strategic. All parties want to win election and so make strategic decisions to win. Shetimma is from the north east as Atiku his choice is to encroach on votes that would have gone to Atiku to aid APC win.

If PO chose Datti its because he felt its strategic to chose him and believed his choice will enhance his chances of winning.
Lastly most other presidential candidates chose different faiths....why is it difficult for people against BATSHET to chose among them to vote but are rather grumbling about Apc choice

Zeezenho:
Your BATthings APC gave us the worst government since independence we can't just wait for buhari and tinubu APC to leave so we can rebuild a new nation...

Every Nigerian caint job st wait for tinubu and buhari APC to pack and leave.godforbid BATthings.

Normal opposition yarn.
During the 16 years of Pdp at every election circle the opposition always scream these same words so its normal for you to be screaming these political words afterall its election time.

Newton2024:
So, I imagine that if ever Obi loses, there will be celebration amongst these folks betting. Interestingly, while they celebrate, Obi will return happily to his multimillion naira businesses while those celebrating will return to their trenches as they look for generators to charge their phones to tweet "I told you that Obi has no structure."

What a shame!

Not only Obi but all three have billions to return to if they lose. Any of the 3 that loses will be mocked. If PO wins and eventually Bleep up nko. Buhari first tenure had among its problems an unfriendly senate leadership who refuse to make the necessary laws to uplift the nation but rather engage the executive in show of power. That was after the Niger delta avengers made sure our oil production was disrupted amidst falling crude prices.
Who knows whats In store in the future that will ensure the next president succeed or fail.
Many of you dont know politics

.


Funny assertion, Moses was a prince in Egypt living in comfort, yet when his time came he left the ruling class and liberated his people, born in 1961, by 1967-70, Obi was between 6-9 years, must have suffered kwashiorkor as all children found in that part of the country then, when anambara was in turmoil, the only state to date where a sitting governor was kidnapped, criminals ran amok, don't stay outside immediately it's 6 pm the state was comatose, then some patriotic old anambara men living abroad decided that enough is enough, they went abroad and called a young Peter obi, under a relatively unknown party, apga he triumped over PDP and ANPP then he faced big men, the money men, the holders and swayers and of course their criminal accomplices: kidnappers cultist, militant groups like mpiawa azu and ukwu aziza were all fought to the ground then Boko Haram, ugm, bandits, iswap, esn, herdsman and militants were all in kindergarten, funny enough, now all of them are against Peter obi, why? because demons know who is who, they know who will bury them, they are fighting tooth and nail to make sure he doesn't make it, not sure of that tinubu man, they backed him up with their leader from borno, in case things went South you know, but youths have decided enough is enough, here comes Peter obi, forget about his mien disposition, when he faces a task, he is brutally detailed, even United kingdom know, the civilized world knows, the terrorists knows, but here, we see cashtivist working hard fighting for bigger bank accounts, by betting away the future of the country. When he looses, they'll still be celebrating, when the country will finally implode, it will happen so fast that if they survive,they'll still not understand how it came about, Ciao.

There s Nothing you wrote up there that BAT hasn't done 3rice.
In 1999...Lagos was also a no go are because of crime but he changes that by engaging the youths and chasing away the criminals who I'm afraid were mostly igbos.
That Lagos is home to lots of igbos today is mainly as a result of his effort to boost the economy....as you people always say....igbos only go where there money to be made. Half of igbos in Lagos today actually came there during the Tinubu era...the Lekki you all proudly claim to dominate today was made what it is by BAT.
So I dont get all this hype thats not up to half of Bats achievement in Lagos.
Now tell me how many leaders at state and national level has PO produced. Atiku produced many....BAT produced a lot....how many can Obi point to.
Continue in your emotional delusions. Una eye go clear

slowice:
Dementia? Omo this your own na premium ment

I PITY you for believing a memeber of the establishment will save you. All three are part and parcel of the Nigerian problem.....Obi is a disgruntled pdp member that ported to LP.
When has PO gone to any market or farm to seek the masses approval? But has gone to abeokuta to see OBJ....has gone to Minna o see IBB and you are here thinking he will save you......I dey laugh ooo

Mexyz:
The same way he is changing the lives of Lagosians, people in Lagos are all fully employed and all the investments in Lagos were attracted by BAT.
Not forgetting that he also extended that skills to the National level by giving Nigerians Buhari, who has in turn created enough employment opportunities, safe Nigeria for all Nigerians and thousands of investments to the countries.

Fellow Nigerians, this guy that I quoted said we should hand over the country to Emi lokan.

See Lagos shinning na, the city is competing with Jo'burg, Cairo, Nairobi and the rest, thanks to Emi lokan.

Don't let me accuse you of jealousy against Lagos. FYI its the 5th largest economy in Africa. Deal with that

Bugie16:
You guys should just put him on wheel chair, so we will know he can't walk.

As if you didnt hear he went for a knee surgery in France last year

You were not blind when he was shown praying Jumat on a chair.

Hypocrite

SmartPolician:
Given the limited choices we have, Peter Obi is the best man for this position.

Your choice your right

To me BAT is the best man for the position.

VERDA:
Just imagine the kind of country we want to continue living in, so feelings will keep being assuaged?, Can't they use the political power to better themselves...? Or the country will not move forward again because of the Fulani tribe?? A minority tribe in the country?? why don't we just entrench rotation of the presidency between the 6 geopolitical zones into the constitution and stop this joke. This country is finished.

Good suggestion.....happens even in so called advanced countries.
The push for Obi presidency is fuelled by the same entitlement mentality of igbos also....if not why insist it must be Obi because an igboman has never been president and igbo feelings must be assuaged.....when we also have over200 other tribes that have never been president too......
That's why they say all politics is local....meaning you consider the interest of your communiy/classs/tribe/religion first and is likely to go with someone who will protect your interests.

Nationalpikin:
Truly Is a blessing to be old. Normal thing to be sick in old age too.so tinubu is blessed. But trying to be president of Nigeria at this age is selfishness. Greed and wickedness, please baba rest.

How is it selfish to aspire to lead your nation.
What then will you call Biden?
There was even a US president that was leading from a wheelchair but is among the greatest president US ever had.

Do you tell your father to stop being the man of the house because he is old.....oh you mean your father cant guide you in life again because he is old.

Willy7:
they are. This election is not and never will be about Obi, but rather the downtrodden, hungry, rejected and poor Nigerian that has said Enough to the status quo.

Is Obi not a billionaire?
A bourgeois like the rest is whom the common man should see as a messiah?
And Is Obi part of the downtrodden....hungry...rejected and poor Nigerians?
NO.
How e wan take do am?
Relax and reflect properly....No difference between the 3 top contenders.
The one that will change the lives of the common man most is BAT....as he has demonstrated he knows ways of creating employment and attracting investments which are the needed ingredients for poor peoples economic emancipation.

PeterObi4LP:
Wetin concern me with Ibo, Nnamdi Kalu and Ojukwu, am I Ibo? All Nigerians want is ObiDatti. If forcing them down your throat to make Nigerian great again, so be it. The youth have rejected Tinubu.

Why then are you so quick to respond to a comment analysing how igbos dominate LP....why were you not making comparism with your tribe or are you not proud of where you come from?
Then you make your comparism using religion...when we are talking about tribe....only to be saying "am I ibo"

It's better the youths reject Tinubu.....which president has the youth ever supported? The few who supported GEJ did so because he was sharing dollars.
This is Politics.....not BBNAIJA

ccffwx:
Southern Nigeria is too weak, hence the constant impunity from the north. When the south affirms itself from a position of power, this nonsense would stop.

You are wrong. Southern Nigeria is not weak....they only just know how to manage a fragile nation.
If southerners think they should have both economic and political power excluding the north they are just kidding because if it were the other way round we will agitate too.
I dislike Obj but i must confess nobody has manage Nigeria diversity like him. He knew how to assuage the norths feeling as a southern president and handed over to a northerner for fairness.
The main REASON GEJ lost is because as at 2015 out of 16 years of democracy, south has ruled for14 including GEJ s 6....if it were the other way round no southerner will want to voteGEJ too.

Please make your first set of attacks be on Obi and his family......please don't attack innocent people.....only target big men and big politicians

It would be interesting to see how former Ipobians now Obidients will react to an attack by IPOB on Obi....it will be very interesting.
Let's see if they will blame fulani for the attacks Simon ekpa has notified the UN of
Or
If they will claim its imposters that tweeted this

We will save this page for future reference because I'm sure they will blame anyone but Simon ekpa when the attacks and destruction starts

M4A1carbine:
And tomorrow agbado miscreants will say that they love this man.

Anybody that loves this man should tell him to go and rest...

He cant even campaign..he cant even move about, for campaigns!!

And some Afonja will claim that they LOVE their elders...spits

Did you stop loving your father because he is aged?
Do you mean Obi will scorn aged people because they are frail?
Will Obi not seek Advise from aged people because he think all aged people dont have capacity to think?

PeterObi4LP:
Lol my Yoruba brothers has nothing again to campaign against Obi, now they want to turn it as Ibo Presidency. Dead on arrival. Nigerians are wiser now. Tribalism and bigotry won't fly anymore. You fail to mention

See your wrong response.....in your haste to form woke and knowledgeable you call SGF a muslim?someone who is a pastor....
You have even made Demi Adeshina also a muslim....weldone
And tomorrow somebody will tell me Obi is not an igbo project.
I don't pretend BAT is not a Yoruba project....when will you own up......oh i forgot its the tribe of people who are never bold enough to own up to their actions.
Ojukwu immaturity led to millions of igbo deaths but it's Awolowo they blame for losing a war they could not have won anyway
Nnamdi kanu will ask igbos to kill other tribes....destroy non igbos properties in places thousands of miles from igboland and when that happens they turn around to blame fulanis and yorubas.
Make una no worry.....we will see how you want to force your candidate down your our throat.

Guy the way Nigeria is descending into the worst state, in the next 5 years if PeterObi doesn't become President, Tanzania might be better than Nigeria.

Nonsense

Its obvious you dont know how cumbersome the impeachment process is

And when you say impeachment, impeach Obi for what exactly

For incompetence and abysmal failure or what exactly?

Lets say impeachment is a tool for removing failures from office, what can you say of buhari?

You are been mischievous claiming Obi is an igbo project, the man himself doesnt say so why where is that coming from

Can we also say Tinubu and Atiku are both yoruba and fulani projects? Because if you say Obi is, all other candidates are also tribal and ethnic projects


BBC just did an expose on the senseless killings in Zamfara and has dangerous as the place has become, some of us for the first time got a hint of the root cause of the crisis

Have you cared to know the reasons for the unrest in the east, with ipob or esn

Cos every crisis has what is festering it, any responsible govt tries to get to the root of it and then apply a multidimensional approach to solve it


Have you cared to ask critical questions about the agitations?


You can give other Nigerians reasons why they should vote your candidate of choice, i have given mine

See ignorance or obvious mischief.
OBI IS AN IGBO PROJECT......TAKE IT OR LEAVE IT.

Of course Tinubus ambition is a Yoruba own. In APC its the turn of yorubas and in yorubaland Tinubu l'okan.

This is Politics NOT Sentiments.

Igbos will continue to lag behind politically until they take politics the way they take business as business NO SENTIMENTS.

It's disgusting the way ibos always make it seem its only igbos suffering in Nigeria and at the same time the 'richest tribe with the highest number of people having a high standard of living' A system that gives you all this is the same system you accuse of marginalization and seek to destroy.
Don't you think the regions ravaged by poverty will also want to ensure the system make them rich and prosperous too?
Because you haven't been president even when you've participated actively in the corridors of power is nobodys fault but your leader's due to the kind of politics they play.
May I remind you AC/ACN/APC was in opposition for 16 years....they persevered and eventually got it and I believe if igbos play the card well they will eventually get it in the future but not by threatening and intimidating others for what you dont have the numbers to achieve and have refused to form sustainable alliances.
You dont make demands if you dont have the numbers bro....It's politics not sentiments .
This fate igbos suffer nationally is the same fate suffered by numerous tribes all over the country. From idomas in benue to yorubas in Kogi.

bdon123:
I am from the north,am i also ipob.are all d people frm northern states agitating for an Obi presidency ipob too.
Receive sense sir

Taa
I am from north yen yen yen
Plenty igbos live in the north thats why you see all those northern chapters of less than 50 people opening threads up and down and giving the impression northerners are for Obi.

LocalStandard1:
I almost shed tears putting the dots together. Three groups of people might suffer in these election times, three.

Firstly.

Do you know who sponsors the loud mouth Finnish Ekpa? Have you ever asked how the guy Jelespeaks or also Oyiboupdate gets all the gory pictures from the carnage in the south East. How he manages to be first with those infos even though he doesn't even base there?

I wrote sometime ago that Nigerians should defend the Igbos, well, Igbos now is your time to reciprocate.

Most of the criminals you call Unknown Gun Men are not out for your good, they're a political tool to deceive and diverte.

desperate power hungery politicians will enter the second faze of their plan, targeted against the Labour Party candidate, for obvious reasons.

1. Hausa communities in the East.
2. Igbos in other parts of Nigeria.
3. Peter Obi's surppoters.

these groups are the main targets of these greeds to diverte and deceive the masses against the LP candidate campaign.

they've already fully started the third on the list. They attack you and when you retaliate they call you violent and that you're after their lives, They then make a scene about it, make more scenes about it and sit back to watch as Obi is faulted.

lastly, the North is waking up, Hausas are gradually waking too. I mean, some, not all, some are beginning to ask serious questions, serious ones. I tell you, the North is a fertile ground for the Labour Party. Just thread more carefully cos that's where the vamps hope for their "block votes" and they'll do anything to protect it.

Propaganda is the new election strategy and our incoming Obi has a lot of explanations to relay about things he has no idea about.

Does it then mean IF peter Obi loses ......all former Ipobians now Obidients will go back to biafra agitation?

Una never see anything

colorsofrainbow:
We love any fake news from labour party as long as it gives agbado cassava urchins high bp morning afternoon night. If labour party stops posting fake news,we OBIdients won't love them anymore

Now op,you can make use of better ogbunge sniper

Just swear that your daily diet doesnt contain either or both agbado and cassava. Then you peoples agbado rants will make sense.....only ignorant folks keep harping on agbado and cassava like rabid dogs because the fact is most Nigerian diet contain either or both agbado and cassava.

Igbo=akpu(cassava)

Oya deny your tribes best food

wizseller:
Nigerians for our own sake and generations unborn let us retire the last 2 big men in our politics

Atiku and Tinubu will be big men president, haughty, proud and full of themselves

No one will be able to question them just as it is with Buhari now.

Atiku and Tinubu believe they have seen it all and know everything, no one can challenge them


Vote a President like Obi who can relate with people of all social class, who can come down to the people's level

Some one who has the mental capacity and energetic to get the job done

Some one who can engage in intense intellectual debates to find solutions to our lingering crisis

Some one who can hold marathon meetings and read reports


Some one who will bring respect, seriousness and dignity to office of the president, someone who will make education a focal point of governance


Some one who will give the youths hope that they too can become president by dint of hard work not old men who have been in politics for over 30 years +



Vote someone who will cut and reduce cost of governance, our government is too bloated and is run at a very high cost to the detriment of ordinary Nigerians


Someone who will move round the country to see things for himself, for example, we can all see how Governor Zulum moves around himself and the situation in Bornu has improved today


Vote someone that can be called to order if he is derailing not big men on high horses who will be looking down on people.

Why waste our votes on someone who could easily be impeached by the Apc and PDP controlled NASS.

Why waste our votes on someone seen as an igbo project..... someone that has never hidden his sympathy for seperatists and is actively supported by seperatists.....someone who has never condemned IPOB ESN atrocities

Why waste our votes on someone whose supporters are threatening to kill everyone who doesn't support him and their families...call such people slaves...and seek to blackmail everyone to vote their candidate .
NO WAY
This is a democracy and every one has freedom of choice. You've made yours let me make mine and we meet at the polls

Yea, the guards brigade are based in Keffi, along withbthe president.
Abeg shift comot from my front with your over sabi make I see better people joor

You be Mumu now .....and unwilling to learn.
Guards brigade is based in Keffi....from where they operate from. FYI Keffi is 30 minutes from Abuja.
FYI again....Aso rock is enclosed by 4 millitary barracks and none of them is the guards brigade.
Go and verify and stop displaying your ignorance here.
In presidential protection the guards brigade form the 3 level of protection...after DMI.... then DSS then Guards brigade.... learn and cure yourself of ignorance

Obidient4life3:
Obi is in my moniker and so what? We use our senses. If you follow my moniker you will know I attack Simon Ekpa on a regular. IPOB don't engage in such. Politicians leverage on existing agitation to create falsehood.

Just like igbos are now leveraging on existing agitation to create falsehood against Obis rivals....they thought all of us have collective amnesia like them

Just wait till campaign starts proper we will dig up all your anti Nigeria rants....why are you not calling Nigeria a zoo again?....hausa fulanis (even a mauritanian) are now your best friends even when you tag us enemy for warning you against calling every fulani man a criminal terrorist.
What about the slave tag you gave anyone who ask you not to stereotype fulanis.....are you now willingly enslaving yourselves by endorsing a mauritanian over your fellow igbos who are presidential candidates?..

Questions plenty....just wait make campaign start proper

So within a matter of 4 days, soldiers of the guards brigade that are based in Abuja have raided forests in Abuja, Niger, Kaduna and another state.....? and you want me to believe this story
To me, the fact that somebody sat down to cook up this lie, is a sign of danger that there is truly support and cover up for these twrrorists in high places in government

Guards brigade is based i Keffi....close to Abuja.

They were attached you believed
Now they are the ones attacking the bandits and you don want to belief.
You want to say the usual.....pictures or i don't believe it.....but that doesn't mean the operation didnt take place
