Some people say Amoda was born into poverty and hustled his way through criminality to the top.
Others say he was born with a silver spoon and his family sold slaves.

Nature abhors a vacuum. Where there is no verifiable fact, rumors fill that vacuum.

How can a nation of 200 million people not know the first 3 decades of a frontrunner's life??

What if Tinubu was a deadly cultist in his youth who went on killing sprees before his sojourn to America only to tone down the violence and be a drug baron? As i said, nature abhors a vacuum.

larride:

But this is very true.
Yorubas don't support bastards.

Yoruba chieftains are asking;

What is Tinubu's genealogy? What is his birth name?

Who are his parents?
What primary and secondary school did he attend?
Who are his childhood friends or classmates?
How old is amoda OGUNLERE?

This picture below is the only thing known of Amoda's childhood?

People ask where and when was this picture taken?
Was it in the 30s, 40s or the 50s?

AMODA OGUNLERE remains a mystery and yorubas do not support bastards of unknown households.

"Tinubu will have 18%, people are dense".

If wicked tribalism didn't block your brain, you would have seen that that wasn't a poll for ONLY voters but the entire population.

On average only 15 percent of the population votes, so it's accurate, just do away with evil tribalism and genocidal calls and your brain will be put to better use.

Of course as expected, the tribal monkey is excited!! He's arrived as expected.

His food has landed!!!

This is what he lives for!! Sowing the seeds of discontent wherever he goes!!
A leopard that never changes it's spots.

Shouldn't expect less my people.

BlueRayDick:


But Ṣeun has only said what not of us have read in books about the civil war na.

Most people during that period actually saw the January 1966 coup as "Igbo coup" and that was why there was a counter-coup.

Maybe the way Ṣeun brought it up may not sit down well with the younger generation on twitter, but seun is not wrong on this one.

For fvcks sake, the election is already as divisive as can be, why throw more flames into the fire??

Why dredge up memories (false account or not) that is totally unrelated to today's happenings?

What was the aim of that tweet? Is it to stir emotions or what?

What exactly was he right about??

Look at this tweet again and tell me exactly what seun got right here.

That igbos should go and beg the north and that north should forgive. Which igbos should beg? Which north should forgive?

Isn't the war enough? Wasn't the mantra at the end of the war, no victor, no vanquished?
So why all these?

Seun decided to be unfortunate yesterday. He's been receiving it wotoporiously since yesterday.
Man has blocked, unblocked, locked and reopened comment section.

I just couldn't believe seun could be this foolish.

Latest presidential poll shows obi with a slight lead over other candidates.
Hmmm. 2023 go too shock people.

spearman:

Landlocked Dotian Cannibal.

Mynd44, seun. Rule 2.

Such language shouldn't be tolerated. Please do the needful.

Shettima is the sponsor of Boko Haram.

You know sef abi?

I believe he's a camouflaged moderator here.

As usual, I expect this crap to get to frontpage.
I keep saying that this author is either a disguised moderator here or is in cahoots with him.

Anyways, we see through you and your agenda for this failed party.

ObiDatti all the way.

For those still stuck in the analogue way of thinking, still thinking that 2023 election will be just like the rest.

E go too shock una.
Meanwhile a sample of Yoruba voters.
This is the outcome. Make of that what you will.
Peter Obi will get at least 35-40% of every single western state. Save this post.

Hmm. Not good.

Hmm. Let's see how the campaign develops.

ObiDatti is a goal.

No candidate can lace his boot. The man of the moment.

larride:
Donjazet

This is how to do comparison, let's compare and contrast what they did in the following areas

Finance
Health
Education
Transportation
Roads
Security

And finally "Legacy" projects.

Pick any time on Saturday that you are free. One on One, let's go through their various achievement in these various sectors.

My friend shut the fvck up, seriously!!

You are trying to compare Lagos a 150 year old economic nerve center with Anambra state, a state formed in 1991 and battered by the 3 year war just 30 years earlier.

Whatever you think AMODA OGUNLERE did, do you think that Peter Obi given those vast resources wouldn't surpass them in 10 folds??

You're being educated on how lateef jakinde and baba murwa were much better performing governors than your yellow teeth-stained, cocaine sniffing drug baron.

Of course even a gorilla would carry out some projects with billions of naira at his disposal.

What we're talking about is the ratio.
Comparing the biggest state economically speaking with the smallest state is such a foolish thing to do.

Obi with just 10 percent of Amoda's budget performed wonders in his state, WITHOUT BORROWING A DIME!

meanwhile your drug baron AMODA OGUNLERE squandered Lagos money, built a bridge from the Lagos treasury to his pocket and left the state in crippling debt.
Don't dare compare these two. You're not speaking to mc oloumo and his touts.

Obi was awarded the best governor of the decade for a reason.
His enduring legacy is the fact that education in Anambra state remains of the highest standard. Unfortunate that Buhari cannot harness the wonderful brains coming out from that state leaving them to flee in droves.

For those asking for Peter Obi's achievements. Here there are.
When you're done, we'll be welcoming you to the family.

INTRODUCTION OF CONSTITUTIONAL AND OTHER MAJOR CHANGES IN NIGERIAN POLITICS

*He was the first Governor in Nigeria to legally challenge his wrongful impeachment and was reinstated by the Courts.

*He was the first Governor in Nigeria to seek the interpretation of tenures of Governors when INEC allowed elections to take place in Anambra State when his tenure had not expired; the election already concluded was cancelled and he was allowed to complete his tenure.

*He was the first Governor, whilst still in Office, to be appointed a Special Adviser to the President.

*He was the first serving Governor to be appointed into the Presidential Economic Management Team.

FUNDAMENTAL ACHIEVEMENTS AS GOVERNOR OF ANAMBRA STATE (PARTIAL LISTING)

1. Anambra was the first State to commence Sub-Sovereign Wealth savings, the first of its kind in Sub-Saharan Africa. At a time many other Governors were leaving huge debts, I left the equivalent of $500 million Dollars in investment as well as local and foreign currency, including $156 million in Dollar-denominated bonds.

2. For the first time in the history of Anambra State, Ambassadors and High Commissioners of notable countries such as United Stated, Britain, Russia, European Union, South Africa, Belgium, Israel, the Netherlands, Canada, among others, visited the State. Before my tenure, Anambra was practically a pariah state blacklisted by the Diplomatic Corps and international development partners.

3. Development partners such as UNDP, UNICEF, the World Bank, DFID, the European Union etc., which hitherto were not in Anambra State started working with the State. Anambra was consistently adjudged one of the best states in development partnership and commitment to reforms for good governance.

4. He was recognised as Best Governor by the Millennium Development Goals Office (OSSAP-MDGs) and the UNDP in the implementation of their programmes in Nigeria.

5. The Nigerian Debt Management Office (DMO) rated Anambra as the least indebted state in Nigeria. In spite of visible and measurable achievements recorded in various sectors, the State under him did not borrow or raise bonds for her various projects.

6. The Senate of the Federal Republic of Nigeria rated Anambra State as the most financially stable state in the country.

7. The State's ground-breaking return of schools to their original owners - Voluntary Agencies (Churches) on 1st January 2009, and subsequent partnership with the Agencies in Education, saw the State move from 24th position out of 36 States to Number One in National Examination Council (NECO) and West African Examination Council (WAEC) examinations for three consecutive years. This made the World Bank to commission a study, led by the renowned Prof. Paul Collier of Oxford University, on this revolutionary partnership and phenomenal achievement.

8. The State also entered into strategic partnership with the Churches in the Health sector. This symbiotic relationship resulted in a tremendous boost to health care because Iyienu Hospital

Through partnership with the Church in the Health sector, his Government funded the transformation of -:

a: Iyienu Hospital, Ogidi;
b: Our Lady of Lourdes Hospital, Ihiala;
c: St Charles Borromeo Hospital, Onitsha;
d: Holy Rosary Hospital, Waterside, Onitsha; and
e: St. Joseph Hospital, Adazi-Nnukwu.
His Government also built the Joseph Nwilo Heart Centre in St. Joseph, Adazi-Nnukwu, where heart operations are now being performed.

11. His Government won the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation (1 Million dollars) as the best-performing state in immunisation in the South-East. With complementary funding from our Government, they used the money to build 10 Maternal and Child Care Centres across the State, particularly in rural communities, in partnership with the Churches.

12. The State was the first to procure and distribute more than 30,000 computers to secondary schools, including 22,500 from HP. The Managing Director for Personal Systems Group HP Inc, Mr. FabriceCampoy described the deployment as the biggest of such projects in the Middle-East and Africa.

13. Anambra State Government provided Microsoft Academies to more than 500 secondary schools, which the Head of Microsoft in Nigeria (Mr. Ken Span) described as the biggest such deployment in Africa so far.

14. The State provided Internet access to more than 500 secondary schools, which the CEO of Galaxy Backbone (Mr. Gerald Ilukwe) characterized as incomparable to any in the country.

15. More than 700 buses were provided to secondary schools in the State by our Government.

16. Boreholes were provided in schools all over the State.

17. Numerous classrooms were built in all the 177 communities of the State.

18 As part of the efforts to turn around the economy of the State, a number of companies were attracted to build their facilities in the Anambra State. A case in point is SABMiller, the 2nd largest brewery in the world, which built their first Green Field facility in the State, which is today one of the most successful facilities they operate globally.

19. A number of other companies followed the SABMiller initiative and were all supported and encouraged under our Government; a good example is INNOSON Motor Manufacturing Company, from which our government bought more than 1,000 vehicles.

20. Anambra State for the first time started close collaboration with recognized government security agencies (the Police, Army, Navy, Department of State Security, Civil Defence, among others), offering them various types of support including provision of more than 500 security vehicles. The improvement in security was phenomenal, such that the former IG of Police (Abubakar Mohammed) lauded Anambra State for not witnessing any bank robbery in my last three years in office.

21. To further enhance security, Anambra State provided at least one security vehicle to each of all the 177 communities in the State as well as various organizations such as markets and Churches.

22. His Administration conceived and built, from scratch, the first state-owned Teaching Hospital, Chukwuemeka Odumegwu-Ojukwu teaching Hospital, Awka.

23. His Government commenced the planned development of the Igbariam Campus of the ChukwuemekaOdumegwu-Ojukwu University, including the fencing, construction of internal roads, electrification, construction of the Faculty of Law, Auditorium, Administrative Block, Faculty of Agriculture, Management Building, among others).

24. His Government attracted the World Bank support on erosion - National Erosion and Watershed Management Project (NEWMAP) - to Anambra State.

25. His Government was the first to do Poverty Mapping in Nigeria, as a guide for the effective implementation of our poverty-alleviation strategies.

26 His Government, for the first time, undertook the aerial mapping of Awka as well as the production of Structure Plans for Awka Capital Territory, Onitsha and Nnewi.

27. During his tenure and with his Government's support, Anambra State became an oil producing State.

28. He built the first Secretariat Complex to house State Government Ministries that were hitherto scattered around the State.

29. His government commenced the development of the 'Three Arms Zone' comprising Government House/Governor’s Lodge, Legislative Building/Speakers Residence, and Judiciary Building with Chief Judge’s Residence.

30. By the end of his tenure in 2014, more than twelve (12) health institutions, including two hospitals, had secured accreditation; when we took off in 2006, no health institution in Anambra State was duly accredited.

31. Anambra State was the first to undergo national peer review, which scrutinised State Governments for good governance, through the State Peer Review Mechanism (SPRM), an initiative of the Nigerian Governors’ Forum in collaboration with the DFID.[/quote]

Jesus Christ a40, what the fvck is this?
Remind me never to engage you in a brawl because I really can't take this.
The bolded are bangers.

A40:

You're not a member, you're a jobber. There's a huge difference. You have no capabilities or achievement to run or be trusted with a post. Your only use is for ballot box snatching thuggery and general nuisance behavior. You're a feudalist slave.

While Tinubu will keep appointing his sons, daughters and cronies to the juicy posts. Useless shitfvcks like you would be on SM engaging strangers and disgracing yourself and credibility for a few crumbs. Shouting "on your mandate we shall stand" Wasteman

I am not a useless shitfvck like you who relies on politial jobbing for my survival. I get work and I have made sufficient progress that I don't need to sell my conscience for a pot of porridge like you have. You're the one licking the anus and doing rimjobs for politicians so you can eat. I don't need to do all that


Go and watch 25minutes of excellence as Governor not this pennyante achievements your Federal indicted principal eked out and turned Lagos to a Mob establishment

I have not sold my conscience and the future of Nigerians for a cob of Agbado like you. Useless wasteman

A40:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ckgVW3AgkQk

One of the few governors in Nigeria history that turned down virtually all his post governorship perks. Nigeria has a spending and wastage problem. Everything we keep complaining about. Reducing cost of governance is one of the things that would help. The debt problem we are having today, this is one of the reasons

Once peter obi starts speaking you just can't stop listening.

Thank God we don't have to choose between sniper and otapiapia this election.

ObiDatti is the way.

A40 where have you been since man??
I've been holding the forth all alone since. Waiting for Normal Nigerians to speak up.

A40:
Most people backing Agbadoman are doing it for the hope of getting financial rewards out of it. They're mostly hired muscles, the ones that are not hired muscles definitely have some sort of anti Igbo agenda and it does not take a lot of prodding for the bigotry to jump out like a bat from hell. Obi will probably be the second candidate bar Buhari that will not need to spend a kobo to market himself. He will not need to dig deep into Lagos coffers to garner genuine support

There is no coherent argument for Tinubu to stand side by side with Obi to run for governance from now till 2031. That's why I have asked everyone here. If they owned a company and Tinubu or Peter Obi showed up at their premises. Who would they hire and who will they send back home. Nobody has answered

Spot on man!!
These people supporting Tinubu certainly do not wish this country well. If not for their pocket, for satisfaction of primordial sentiments.

Whatever you think Tinubu was in 2000, surely you can see that this man has been diagnosed with parkinson's disease.
How on earth, do you wish a parkinson's patient rule you after seeing yaradua and buhari have severe health issues that created power vacuums?

One has to ask, if Lagos is all, these people are making it to be, why did they run from the Lagos?

Lagos is Nigeria's biggest city, yes biggest but not BETTER!

Lagos biggest draw is it's seaports which basically make it to be a gateway to Nigeria's economic activities.
Seaports that have constructed and maintained by the federal government's even pre-Nigeria.

Another factor is it being the corporate headquarters of Nigeria, again by virtue of it being a political and administrative center.

And these economic indices all predate one mani myself lived in a high brow area of Lagos in Maryland. I stayed there briefly because of my relatives who lived there, a business man who imports tiles and ceramics (plates and glass tumblers) from china.

He has 2 big distributing shops, one in Lagos, the other in Onitsha.

Let federal government make the bonny and one ports in Port Harcourt functional and watch how Lagos empties in minutes.

A40:
If we're even going to gloss over the man's glaring incompetence. The man is fvckin sick. How do you entrust such man to run your affairs for the next 8 years. 8 years of Buhari should have been enough for people to have some sense but apparently not

I wish NL still did polls. I know we have business owners and Mazajes here. If Obi or Tinubu showed up to be COO of your Company. Which of the two would you hire and which would you not let into the premises

Bro, obi will dust Tinubu completely.

Obi comments on frontpage always average 500 likes, sometimes some reach 1000 likes sef.

One doesn't need glasses to see that Tinubu is the most despised candidate this election.

How wicked do you have to be to bring yourself out for election despite knowing how deep Parkinson's has got you.

Imagine trying to use Buhari as a yardstick for health.

Some people are just too damn foolish ghan!

And to even try and use a Buhari who has failed monumentally in every faucet of governance continues to show how senseless these APC apologists are.

Same Buhari who spent half his tenure on hospital bed and you want to make same mistake.
Shameless urchins.

How shell still plays a role in corruption financing and hand twisting.

Read this wiki leaks expose on shell and the article by a UK publication.

For those arguing about post colonialism, the Europeans gave Africa political independence but not economic independence so one could theoretically say that we're still colonized and be technically right.

Baba lost his uncle during d coup....probably the reason for the hate/bile....no vex bro. Dose officers involved no suppose deserve mercy.


But calling a democratically elected president a terrorist,,,which offense wey oga GEJ commit in ur book?

That dayo's uncle story is pure cock and bull BULLSHITE!!!

He simply wants to justify the tremendous hate he habors in his heart.
He's a rabid vermin that simply shouldn't exist with such a dark mind.

After reading this your post, I had to scroll up and begin reading it again!! This was just too good. Every point was a hit!

This is fvcking gold. Nice expository here. Brilliant thoughts my friend. Excess oil dey your head bro.

ixyi:


Peter Obi is an open book, nothing to hide. So, of course, you know everything about him.
But the question is what exactly do people know about your candidate, Tinubu. Everything about him is riddled in controversies. Since he barely has the mental capacity to answer questions by himself, even his media spokespersons are finding it difficult presenting believable details about a presidential hopeful.

Why are you guys gloating because PO exposed the mildest albeit wicked form of an average Tinubu lapdog for the whole world to see. Instead of you to attack the topic about the unfair use of seaports and the uncommon advantage it gives Lagos against other states you'd gladly want to make silly comparison with, you're all there foaming in the mouth whilst accusing PO of being a tribalist.

You guys are cunningly funny, lol. Some days ago, the video of Tinubu's wife, an undistinguished Senator, a so called pastor, a tout in female form, resurfaced online. It is said that out of the aboundance of the heart, the mouth speaketh. Imagine a public figure disguised under the cloak of a joke openly threatening to feed herself and her family to a deity. If such a person can say these in public view, you can imagine what kind of bile they both spew whenever they're hiding in coven of their bedrooms.

I can't recall any of you guys, failure reinforcers, remotely calling her a tribalist but here you are crying that PO is a tribalist.

You guys forget that this isn't 2015 or 2019 where in a bid to progress the country from GEJ, you guys held sway over the internet and controlled the narratives. People aren't ignorant anymore, and can deduce the brainwashing attempts from your comments.

A quick glance over most threads on this forum alone, you'd easily find Tinubu's urchins trying to initiate sparring duels between Yorubas and Igbos. These urchins following the templates given to them term whoever as ipo b, ipi g... in a bid to induce a retaliatory afon ja response.

Remember the Ekiti n Osun election. Anybody against APC automatically becomes ipo b.
You begin to hear remarks like anybody that Igbos support are bound to lose. Lol. Too bad, that silly phrase has been quashed time and time again.

It's because of these tribalistic tendencies of Tinubu's urchins that made the Edos and Middle beltans carry Peter Obi's campaign on their head like GeePee tank. If not, Tinubu's urchins would have triumph with the narratives of PO being Igbo agenda and presidency. But Tinubu isn't Yoruba only agenda or presidency to them.

So who exactly are the tribalist¿?
Definitely not the Igbos, definitely not the Yorubas.
They are your fellow Tinubu urchins who supplanted this failed government, defended them and now want to reinforce the failure on over 200m people.

Why are you guys ready to sacrifice the interest and progress of everyone in this country¿?
Well, of course, it's because it's now Tinubu's turn to loot the national treasury after helping Bubu and his cronies have a good time the last 7 years.
Nothing nothing, something must surely reach APC card carrying members hand this time around.

So, Peter Obi is not a tribalist, he's only reinforcing and showing to the world what most Nigerians already know about Tinubu's urchins.

Most Nigerians have access to Tinubu's strategists space and know how they think.
That below was how the urchins intended to counter POs campaign but it's failing. Nigerians are wiser now. If you like, deny.

God knows I'm screenshoting this for reposts.

seankafor:
you have a weired pattern of whataboutism..

"SINCE MY BROTHER TREATS ME WRONG, THEN I HAVE NO REASON TO COMPLAIN IF AN OUTSIDER TREATS ME SAME WRONG"

This your analogy is weired and unpopular.. so because I quarel with my brother, then that justifies me to close my mouth when an outsider treats me worse ?

Is that it?

For once, you decided to use your senses.
More of the same please.

Let's all conviniently forget that Tinubu's supporters tag all obi supporters IPOB members and even call them ipigs.

Very shameless hypocritical lots.
