I will not say anything about it as far as zoning is concern and if he says it 2031 when its the turn of the North. North is entitled to 8yrs and South 8yrs. Personally, I prefer 5yrs rotated among the 6 geopolitical zones and that's one recommendation of the confab that I support helinues: What would/have your reaction be if Atiku said he would serve only one term?

Stop hiding behind a finger. Is this the first time Obi is saying it this year? Did Amaechi not also say it? Why this reaction as though it was said for the first time? Answer the question directly helinues: Obidients with having issue with figure and number. Is it up to a month that Peter Obi talked about one term. Where did you get your own 3 months from? |

You guys said 4yrs is not enough so Obi is lying. Buhari did not do it in 8yrs, Tinubu cannot do it in 8yrs, Obi cannot do it in 4yrs so how many years should a president need? Answer the question and stop making it about Obi this, Obi that ElSudani: Tinubu is not expected to fix Nigeria in eight years by whom? What Obi couldn't do on a smaller scale in eight years is what he is going to accomplish a larger and more complex scale in four years? |
Politics › Re: What Bakare Said About Peter Obi by DMerciful(m): 4:45pm On Aug 04, 2025 |
It seems you guys only bring standards when Obi is involved. You guys said Northerners will not support a fresh candidate because power should return to the North by 2031. Obi has agreed that power should return to the North hence saying he will do one term. Why is he being attacked? If Obi decides he wants to recontest in 2031, can't the North vote him out with their numbers? helinues: Go and ask him below the 6ft ground. Must you people always derail threads? |
Politics › Re: Peter Obi, So All Your Gra Gra Was For Just A 4 Year Term? by DMerciful(m): 4:41pm On Aug 04, 2025 |
Buhari spent 8yrs but couldn't fix Nigeria. Tinubu is not expected to fix Nigeria in 8yrs either. Question is, how many years do you think is enough to fix Nigeria? Reflect7: If I was an Obidient I would feel pretty angry and shortchanged that this man only wants to be president for one term.
Is 4 years enough to fix our problems?
Perhaps in a military regime. Not in this our system we practice where everything is subject to debate, consensus, etc.
So it’s very doubtful that 4 years will be enough to transform Nigeria the way Obi has been promising! |

Buhari couldn't fix Nigeria in 8yrs, Tinubu is not expected to fix Nigeria in 8yrs and you say Obi can do it in 4yrs. Are you advocating for 10yrs presidency or more?

This is not the first time this year Obi said he'll do one term. He said it about 3 months ago when the coalition was inaugurated and after that Amaechi said so too. Why is him repeating what he said before in reaction to Soludo's mischief different? helinues: This Peter Obi's talk about 4 years as presidency supposed to be backed by evidence on how he governed Anambra state
The thread below is the score card of Peter Obi as Anambra state governor. 50% of those who commented are from Anambra state while 30% are Igbo's from other state in SE, 20% are non Igbo's who might have experienced After Obi's poor governance.

Its Peter Obi or nothing emkz: The possible marginalization could be that in the gathering of hawks, chickens can only serve as meals and not decision makers.
The Obidient Movement has not prepared itself as a formidable force to be reckoned with. They mostly gaslight and chest-thump on their self importance on digital media. They lack the gravitas for grassroots penetration.
The coalition doesn't want the Obidient votes; they want about a third of it. Additionally, attacks on Atiku and the insistence on Obi or nothing do not give room for trust. |
Politics › Re: One-term Presidency Is Political Strategy: Arewa Forum Rejects Obi's Pledge by DMerciful(m): 1:44pm On Aug 04, 2025 |
Batists should be pushing ADC to give Obi the ticket since y'all believe Atiku is a more formidable opponent to Tinubu. Is there something I'm missing? Why are you guys esp the presidency pushing for Atiku instead? seunmsg: Beyond the politics, what exactly can any president achieve in four years ? A president gets sworn in on 29th May of the election, he has to set up his government and he’s going to struggle with this for another 3-6 months. Even at that, he inherits a budget he knows absolutely nothing about from the former president and by law, he has to implement it.
Then there are various governors, senators, Reps and powerful political figures with diverse interests to deal with. By the end of the second year, political coalitions start springing up and politics has to take the center stage again. Boom, it’s four years and nothing much has changed.
It took Lee Kuan Yew 31 years to set Singapore on the path of sustained economic development. Paul Kagame has been president of Rwanda for the past 25 years and he’s still president because Rwanda is still not there yet.
So, anyone telling you all he needs to perform magic and turn a big, economically challenged, infrastructurally decayed, ethnically disunited and religiously divided Nigeria to Dubai in four years is a liar. It is the height of political desperation. It’s even more funny because this same guy had 8 years to turn a small, ethnically and religiously homogeneous Anambra around but left the state worse than he met it. |

Question ; is the North saying they cannot vote him out if he seeks reelection despite their population or they're afraid that Obi might perform so well that their own people might call for his reelection? JASONjnr: Peter Obi is just a mere politician with the usual lie and fake promise.
He's no different.
Claiming to serve only one term shows desperation and lack of focus or willingness for a better Nigeria but for selfish interest.

Atiku did not form the coalition but was invited like Obi.

Atiku has capacity to win primaries because its easy to compromise few delegates with money but a general election? Nah! Atiku is perpetually unelectable and ADC will go the path of PDP if they give their ticket to Atiku. Peter Obi will not contest in ADC primaries without zoning. If Atiku insist, Obi and ElRufai with the CPC block will form a new coalition that will unseat Tinubu fergie001: I look forward to a free, fair and transparent Primary for the ADC that will churn up a worthy opposition to President Bola Tinubu. |
Politics › Re: Northern Leaders Should Call Atiku Abubakar To Order Before It's Too Late by DMerciful(m): 4:35pm On Aug 03, 2025 |
Atiku is perpetually unelectable AMINDA: Atiku will not step down for anybody. You can go do your worst. You are scared of a party primary but you want to defeat Tinubu at the polls? Did you sign any pact with Atiku or the ADC on power rotation? Were they no Southern candidates on the ballot in 2015 and 2019? Wike was ready to become Atiku's Vice in 2023 despite 8 years of Buhari until he lost out. Don't confuse a political party's internal arrangements with another's. Wike has asked Abure to free the LP for Obi, he's welcome to contest under their banner. |

It's not a good law. It will limit economic growth. Zimbabwe under Mugabe tried this by taking lands from white farmers who came during colonial era and gave the lands to locals. They couldn't make effective use of those lands unlike the white farmers who were doing industrial scale farming and as a result Zimbabwe became poor with inflation over 1000% franchasng: This is laudable, Nigerian government need to emulate this.
Ban Chinese people from operating small and medium scale trading businesses.
Chinese citizens should only be allowed to operate manufacturing, production and other large scale businesses.
They should be banned from opening small and medium scale trading businesses in Nigeria.
If this is not done, Chinese will soon Pursue Nigerian small and medium scale businesses from operation |
Politics › Re: Why Peter Obi's Single Term Proposal Doesn't Make Sense! by DMerciful(m): 10:21am On Aug 03, 2025 |
1960-1966 democratic govt North 1979-1983 democratic govt North. Nigeria did not start in 1999 Slimani: Personally, I don't think Peter Obi's single term proposal makes any sense.
Of all people, why should he be the one to compromise his ambition and limit his tenure to just 4 years if he wins?
I think this move puts him in a box and potentially, a dilemma in the future if he performs very well and is compelled by the populace to continue for another tenure, which will then be a breach of his proposed agreement.
I believe he should contest based on his competence as a candidate looking to serve for a complete 8 years. If he doesn't perform well in his first tenure, then he should be voted out.
I don't want to hear that sly narrative that the south must complete their 8 years, because there is no 8 years reserved for the south. There is no 8 years reserved for any region, and there is no 8 years reserved for Tinubu.
In fact, by calculation, it is the North that is owed a single tenure.
Here's what history says:
Obj (South) - 8 years Yaradua (North) - ~ 4 years Jonathan (South) - ~ 4 years Buhari (North) - 8 years Tinubu (South) - 4 years (potentially)
Total - South: 16 years, North: 12 years
If anyone should be proposing a single tenure, then it should be that:
Tinubu will do only 4 years and in 2027 allow a Northerner to do only 4 years, then the equation balances.
Right now, if there's any candidate proposing a single tenure, then it should be a Northern candidate. Maybe Atiku or Kwankwaso.
Nigeria doesn't owe Tinubu 8 years of Presidency. With Tinubu's first tenure of 4 years, in 2027 the South would have ruled for 16 years.
If the presidency is to be shared turn by turn, then Tinubu has to step down in 2027 in the spirit of equity and allow the North a single tenure of 4 years to complete their 16 years also.
But then, as Nigeria is right now, the country is in dire need of purposeful leadership. Our concern right now shouldn't be whose turn it is, but which candidate is more competent to offer a purposeful leadership that'll pull Nigeria out of its current mess.
In my opinion, that candidate is Peter Obi and he shouldn't be put in a box!
