Iran has gone full Metal Jacket.

UK Military and Air Base in Cyprus also hit hard.

The Brits are scrambling the few jets they have out of their own base.

All US Military and Naval bases in the region have been hit by a barrage of Iranian missiles and drones.

US officials also confirm that one of their Aircraft Carriers was hit by Iranian missiles targetting the flight deck.

Stop watching CNN, Fox News!

Also Tel Aviv is getting their shit pushed in.

Watch video of Israelis screaming to God to come help them as Iranian hypersonic missiles rain down:

I know APC data boys would be happy.

But there is a problem

Most of the windfall would be used to settle debt. That is the life of an oil dependent country.

Plus IT IS NOT ENOUGH....for Nigeria to earn enough money from oyel...Nigeria needs oyel to be at 150 dollars per barrel...for a sustained period of time.

So, make we no decieve ourselves.

FInally, high oil prices means govenrment would just hook the economy even more to oil. No diversification, no innovation, no industry.

(Why did Ghaddafi lose to the west? Because he used high revenue from oyel money to buy weapons from the same WEST. Equivalent to having the phillistines sharpening your iron tools if you were ancient Israel).



Manufactured goods and services
Dutch disease.

spewing trash as usual.

Your region that is solely dependent on FG handouts from same crude oil sales should not be making such noise.

And isn't the reason for your collective tantrums on the state of the economic reforms being that this administration has stopped defending the naira so as to reduce importation which your region ecomnomic model relies on?

This is the most pozzed forum ever.

One can not even expose the filthy rats here without getting a ban.

Lol. Well-said. His main claim to fame today is that he has the most toxic, most anarchic and most radical supporters, by far, out of all those who want to be President of Nigeria.

His support has greatly withered since the last elections and he is left with his tribal and IPOB demented mob who only dare make noise online as their nuisance levels will not be tolerated irl like in 2023.

Obi is a spent force.

A one hit wonder.

A foluke one night stand.

And with the full backing of Trump, Israel and Al Joolani terrorist in Damascus.

After hosting Al Joolani in the oval office and showering him with praises and how handsome he is, Trump has now okayed the violent release of all ISIS imprisoned members in prisons acorss Kurdish controlled Northern Syria.

The Kurds are shocked (again!) to see the US throw them under the bus as all attempts to get US air support to tackle a surge of ISIS terrorists storming prisons across northern Syria to free ISIS members fell on deaf ears .

This is same Trump and Satanyahu who told you they are coming to Nigeria to battle ISIS but in Syria a known and wanted ISIS head chopper is the defacto President and the same Damascus govt is now sending ISIS terrorists to attack Prisons across northern Syria holding ISIS members in the tens of thousands to set them free.

The Kurds are shocked ... again!

yarimo:
Peter obi is not serious, you want to be president yet you don't want to participate in primary election with others.

And that only exposes his tyranny in the making.

So by the slimmest margins he gets to Aso Rock, he will not have any favours for his party men.

This is what he did in LP after they gave him free ticket and he refused to endorse or campaign alongside other candidates from the party from other regions.

This is same Obi that was caught horse trading LP gubernatorial candidate for Rivers in exchange that Wike help him rig the Presidential elections for the state in his favour.

The man is a tyrant hoping on his mob support as absolute.

Now realizing he has no chance in hell freezing over securing an automatic free ticket in the ADC or getting Atiku to pick him as a running mate and that is if Atiku even wins the ticket from Amaechi, Giringori has now decided to return to LP following the latest Supreme Court judgement that sacked Abure.

Giringori now sees another free ticket in LP with Tanko as its new interim Chairman but this is a long pipe dream as Tanko must conduct fresh elections for excos and might not be around when the LP is set to select their candidate.

One thing is sure, is that the several other factions in the LP will not sit idly and watch the Usman faction handpick a candidate for the LP against the 2027 elections and you can bet they will be heading to court to ensure nation-wide primaries are held to determine who will hoist the flag for the LP.

This is where it gets dicey because outside the SE caucus , no other delegate is in good terms with Obi giving how he alienated virtually all other candidates outside those from his SE and refused to share his campaign ground with them.

Chinonye2022:
The funny part is that after the election if tinubu wins na obi supporter go receive insult pass from tinubu so to avoid the shade is better obi deputize atiku Atikuobi ticket na sure bet if obi no gree coalition don scatter b that

When ADC give Amaechi the ticket, your eye go clear.

keep underrating Amaechi's immense influence within the ADC.

Your Obi will be heading back to LP laslas but unbeknownst to him, the Abure faction within the party will go to court to insist on primaries.

avalancheMedia:
ADC Is About to Implode and Peter Obi Holds All the Cards

The opposition's 2027 dream is crumbling. And the architects of this disaster have names.

Let me tell you what just happened. The Federal High Court in Abuja slammed the gavel and declared Senator Nenadi Usman the legitimate leader of the Labour Party. Julius Abure, the man who overstayed his welcome and turned the party into his personal fiefdom, is officially finished. INEC has been ordered to recognize reality.

But this isn't just about Labour Party housekeeping. This is about the survival of Nigeria's opposition. This is about whether we get a real contest in 2027 or another coronation for Bola Tinubu.

Peter Obi just got handed a nuclear option. And the greedy, shortsighted politicians running the ADC are about to find out what happens when you push a man with options into a corner.

## The Zoning Betrayal

Let's call it what it is. The ADC is trying to rig its own primary before it even starts.

State chairmen are out there singing the same song. No zoning. Open primary. Let the best man win. We all know what that means. Let the man with the deepest pockets win. Let the man who has been buying politicians for three decades win. Let Atiku Abubakar have his seventh shot at a presidency he will never win.

Peter Obi saw this coming. He warned them publicly. He called the coalition unstable. He said the agreements were unsigned. He demanded they settle the zoning question before it tears everything apart.

What did the ADC do? They told him to make up his mind. They said zoning is not on the table. They treated the man who delivered over six million votes in 2023 like an inconvenience.

The arrogance is breathtaking. The stupidity is criminal.

Obi's Masterstroke

Everyone thought Peter Obi burned his bridges when he showed up at Nike Lake Resort on December 31st to declare for the ADC. Everyone thought he had abandoned Labour Party and thrown in his lot with Atiku and the recycled politicians club.

Everyone was wrong.

Listen to what Obi actually said that day. I am not decamping. I have been with this coalition from the go.

He joined a coalition. He did not join a party. He did not tear up his Labour Party membership card. He kept his options open while everyone assumed he had closed them.

That is not desperation. That is chess while everyone else is playing draughts.

Now look at the board. Nenadi Usman, a woman who stood with Obi against Abure's tyranny, is now the legally recognized leader of Labour Party. Governor Alex Otti, the man who hosted the meeting that removed Abure, is now Labour Party's National Leader. Datti Baba Ahmed, Obi's running mate who stuck with Labour Party while others fled, is positioning himself within the structure.

The Labour Party didn't collapse when Obi walked toward the ADC. It reorganized under people loyal to him. It waited. And now it has legal backing from the highest courts in the land.

Peter Obi has a political insurance policy that Atiku Abubakar cannot buy, cannot destroy, and cannot ignore.

The Prophetic Warning

Hakeem Baba Ahmed is not a man given to wild predictions. When he speaks, smart people listen. This week he went on Channels Television and delivered a verdict that should terrify everyone in the ADC.

The ADC will bleed after its convention because almost certainly former Vice President Atiku will win the ticket, and when he does, some people will walk out. It will be severely damaged.

Some people will walk out.

Stop pretending you don't know who he is talking about. Peter Obi will walk. Rotimi Amaechi will walk. Every southerner who joined this coalition believing in the promise of power rotation will walk. And they will take their supporters, their structures, and their votes with them.

The ADC will be left with Atiku Abubakar, his money, his baggage, and his proven ability to lose elections.

The 2023 Crime Scene

We need to talk about what happened in 2023 because the same criminals are about to commit the same crime.

Bola Tinubu won the presidency with 36.61 percent of the vote. Barely more than a third of Nigerians who voted chose him. He didn't win. The opposition lost.

Atiku Abubakar got 29.07 percent. Peter Obi got 25.40 percent. Add those numbers together. That is 54 percent. That is a landslide victory for the opposition if they had been united. Instead they split the vote and handed Tinubu the keys to Aso Rock.

The whole point of the ADC coalition was to prevent this from happening again. United we stand. One candidate. One platform. One mission to remove Tinubu.

But here we are, watching the same script play out. Atiku wants the ticket. The ADC machinery is clearing the path for him. Peter Obi is being told to fall in line or get out. The southerners who believed in this coalition are being told that zoning doesn't matter, that competence should decide, that the best man should win.

We know how this ends. Atiku gets the ADC ticket. Obi goes back to Labour Party. The opposition splits again. Tinubu wins again. Nigeria loses again.

The only people who can't see this coming are the ones causing it.

Atiku's Curse

Someone needs to say this plainly. Atiku Abubakar cannot win a presidential election. He has proven this six times. He is about to prove it a seventh time.

This man has been running for president since 1993. Datti Baba Ahmed said it perfectly. When I was doing my NYSC, Baba Atiku was an aspirant. An entire generation of Nigerians has grown up watching this man lose.

He lost to Obasanjo. He lost to Yar'Adua. He lost to Buhari. He lost to Tinubu. He has crossed from PDP to APC to PDP to ADC chasing the same dream that keeps slipping away.

And every time he loses, he takes the opposition down with him.

The APC knows how to beat Atiku. They have beaten him twice. They know his playbook. They know his weaknesses. They know which of his allies can be bought. They know exactly where to hit him.

Datti Baba Ahmed warned the ADC. If you bring out Atiku, they know how to work against Atiku. You need a candidate they can't understand, they don't know where to catch. That is how to win an election.

Peter Obi was that candidate in 2023. He came from nowhere and won Lagos State in Tinubu's own backyard. He mobilized millions of young Nigerians who had given up on politics. He built a movement that scared the establishment so badly they had to rig the results in broad daylight.

The ADC has a candidate the APC fears. They are about to throw him away for a candidate the APC has already defeated twice.

This is not politics. This is self sabotage.

The Obidient Army

The ADC seems to think that if they give Atiku the ticket, Peter Obi's supporters will simply transfer their loyalty. They seem to think the Obidient Movement was about Labour Party, not about Obi himself.

They are dangerously wrong.

Dr Yunusa Tanko, National Coordinator of the Obidient Movement Worldwide, has made the position clear. Wherever he goes, that's where we are going.

Those six million voters in 2023 didn't vote for a party logo. They voted for Peter Obi. They voted for a new kind of politics. They voted against the exact kind of recycled, transactional, money bag politics that Atiku Abubakar represents.

If Obi walks back to Labour Party, they walk with him. If Obi tells them ADC betrayed the South, they will believe him. If Obi says Atiku and his cronies care more about power than about Nigeria, they will remember every dismissive statement, every call to abandon zoning, every arrogant assumption that their votes could be inherited.

The Obidient Movement is not a political party. It is a political insurgency. And you cannot buy an insurgency. You cannot bribe it. You cannot tell it to make up its mind and expect it to comply.

The Verdict

The ADC has one choice left. Zone the ticket to the South. Honor the agreement that brought this coalition together. Give Peter Obi or another credible southern candidate the nomination. Go into 2027 united and give Tinubu the fight of his political life.

Or they can do what Nigerian politicians always do. Let greed win. Let Atiku's money talk. Let the convention become an auction. Watch Peter Obi walk away. Watch the coalition collapse. Watch the opposition split. Watch Tinubu celebrate.

Every day they delay on zoning, they are writing Tinubu's second term into existence. Every statement dismissing Obi's concerns is a gift to the APC. Every move toward an open primary is a step toward opposition suicide.

The Labour Party is ready. The court has spoken. Nenadi Usman is in charge. Alex Otti is leading. The structures are intact. Peter Obi has somewhere to go.

The question is not whether Obi has options. He clearly does. The question is whether the ADC will give him a reason to stay.

I have watched Nigerian opposition politics for years. I have seen them snatch defeat from the jaws of victory over and over again. I have seen brilliant opportunities wasted by ego, greed, and shortsightedness.

What is happening in the ADC right now is the most predictable disaster in Nigerian political history. Everyone can see it coming. Everyone knows how it ends. And yet the people in charge seem determined to drive off the cliff anyway.

When Tinubu wins in 2027, remember this moment. Remember who refused to zone. Remember who told Peter Obi to make up his mind. Remember who chose Atiku's seventh failed campaign over a united opposition.

History will judge them. Nigerians will judge them. And they will have no one to blame but themselves.

When ADC chooses Amaechi as their flag bearer which they will, you will still cry.

Obi should return to LP where Usman will give him free ticket.

Spain is still not an Islamic country. They defeated jihad 110 years ago. U r still looser js here

The level of ignorance from you ipob louts is beyond redemption.

Spain was once occupied by Muslims for 700yrs and guess who were the ones who conspired with the Muslim Moors to invade and occupy the whole of Iberia?

Jews were first class citizens under Muslim rule of Spain and served as tax collectors, prosecutors, torturers and advisers to the Muslim government.

Spain fell to the Muslim army due to Jews funding the invasion and supplying intelligence on how to invade the entire Spain.

The gates of Toledo were opened to the Muslim invaders by Jews dwelling within the city.

For their treachery, Jews were elevated to very high status they never enjoyed previously by the new Muslim overlords. Castrillo Matajudíos, which translates to "Camp Kill Jews" or "Jew-killer Camp." The name dates back to 1627, during a period of intense religious persecution following the 1492 Spanish Edict that expelled Jews who refused to convert to Christianity.

When Rowland the Conqueror finally chased out the Muslim Moors, Jews were hunted down and killed for the roles they played in the 700yr occupation.

The whole Spanish Inquisition was to root out fake converts from among the Jewish community who had been given an ultimatum to either convert or leave Spain.

Finally, the golden age of Spain began from the moment the Christians edict to expel Jews from Spain was enacted.

The Jew knows their sordid history in Spain and know the Spanish Christians are not like the fake Zionist American heathen church that worship Jews and can never see Jews as some elevated chosen people.

If there is any population that will never fall for Jewish lies, victimhood and chooseness its the Spanish and this makes the jews seethe like snakes.

Other than the Spanish, the Japanese are the most hated by the Jews because the Nip is immmune to Jewish lies and their corruption of Christianity

If you are wondering why the sudden scream abd frenzy around the paternity saga involving David Adeleke aka Davido and one young woman call Anu "Adeleke", just remove the viel and see the political angle to the matter. The last time this issue made news was in 2020, around the build up to the Osun State elections.

This time around, the matter has been resurrected by those who fears Davido's influence on the Osun elections. The game is simple ... engage Kemi Olunloyo to start social media campaigns to malign the Adeleke's, especially Davido. Create unnecessary sympathy in the mind of Nigerians, that way Davido's influence would be whittled down in the run-off to Osun State elections.

This is why I commend Davido's father in addressing a media conference to effectively counter the social media frenzy. The APC have seen that they are losing Osun state again, this time to little known Accord Party, they are now bereft of idea, so they have resorted to the old tactics. Kolè work.

You are neither from Osun nor are you in any way a member of PDP.

How you guys take hijack Davido as una property and begin to use him for your own tribal agenda only you guys can explain
