Guys remember this is for the constant posters here that are Chelsea fans. Please endeavor to use a slightly recognizable name so that we could identify our teams easier.

We have reopened the nairaland Chelsea fan FPL league and acting upon ibimes advice made it in league format rather than cup format.

So for the constant Chelsea posters here. This is the league code.

Ibime:
Alas this thread shows we are no different from our fathers

How? I don't understand your point.

NinjaXmetahuman:
But the website has been suspended from regiatering new voter all month

Wtf are they talking about?

Have you decided on a candidate?

This una argument dey meaningless, Tinubu is a drug lord is an established fact. He is a drug pusher and a money launderer. All these long yarns are not needed.

Even his most ardent supporters know that he is a criminal, that's why what they aim to do is try and bring Obi down to his criminal level to now say, "no one is a saint". Meanwhile they are trying to compare a violent armed robber who steals on the high way to a student who stole a pen .

Peter Obi is a SAINT when compared to escoBAT. From the mouth of his core supporters.

Someone should remind funke that lagos population is not up to 20m and if it is 40% of her followers are not in lagos
What are they smoking in PDP, this is very embarrassing

I don't like when bloggers or journalist narrow an interview only to one statement. Before she made that statement, she actually poured out her heart in a good way, enumerating the problems of Lagos, the infrastructural decay and deficiency. The high cost of living and other things. I'm actually impressed by her diction. She said mostly the right things.

Oasis007:


We've been engaging sensible Obidients on this same platform. No tantrums, no name calling, no stupidity on display, but one Twèrp wants everyone to support his candidate at all costs.

Yes I will never give room for you people's mental manipulation and gaslighting. You are urging people to turn off their emotions and their senses so you can sell a poison to them. Poison that can kill us all. If your choice of president didn't affect me, God knows I will leave you to your foolishness.

But as long as you continue to try and sell and repackage an expired product to us, you must collect wotowoto. Your likes dey collect constantly on frontpage and other online pages, I dey wonder why people here still dey slack. Una dey find safe space to sell your expired product.

You will never be given room to spread your failed propaganda.
I am still offering 100 thousand naira for you to provide a live interview of Tinubu in recent memory.

Segedinho:
Nigeria is different from USA..

Those men weren't in the spotlight of some negative saga.......

Sege, those men delivered sooo much live interviews. They went to different night shows, different show hosts, different radio channels. Don't think for a second, that American presidential candidates shy away from the media. They don't!!

The Tinubu campaign just depends on paid-propagandists to spread their messages online and on TV shows, while hiding in their cocoons.

Oasis007:


How many times Bush, Obama, Trump and Biden attended TV Interviews before they were elected?!

Several!!! Several!! When I'm back from work, I will calm down and supply you with enough videos to prove to you how those candidates are soo far in quality from your drug lord and master. Propagandist, you are failing at your job oo.

Oasis007:


It's too early for that kinda nonsensical Discourse. Tinubu has been holding colloquium on his birthday for how many years now?

He has been using the platform to discuss State of the nation and economy as well as proffering Solutions to our numerous challenges.
I don't understand his fixation with TV Interviews. What makes TV Interview so special by the way? How many Time Bush, Obama, Biden attended TV Interviews before they were elected as Presidents of United States?

Somebody needs to grow up and stop being emotional all the times.

Just look at the question you asked and ask yourself if you are normal at all in supporting this failed party.

I could present you with 1 interview for each month of the 12 months preceding their electoral victory. You think US is Nigeria where anything goes?

So you think it's normal that a presidential candidate's only public speeches is the one he does once every year. Speeches prepared by professional writers and delivered in his comfort zone in the midst of fellow thieves.

What does all this say about your candidate? So you mean you can confirm that your candidate has NEVER subjected himself to live interview where he was cross-examined and you are okay with this?

Oasis007:

Don't laugh sheepishly, provide your principles live interview. NOT REHEARSED SPEECHES written by professionals but LIVE INTERVIEW. Chief Propagandist get to work.

Amoto94:
I didn't attack you I attacked your lies and stripped it naked for others to see, you claimed that Christians are being killed which I countered with the fact that majority of those caught up in the security challenge are Muslims without excluding the Christians.
Anyone who doesn't submit to the dictates of BH and other groups are targeted irrespective of their faiths and most people who ascribe to Islam reject BH and other similar groups except when they're coerced by the group and for fear of their lives they do summit just like how some in Anambra are observing sit-at-home despite their opposition to IPOB and UGM. For others who chose not to summit become targets, and in this case they are still killed irrespective of their beliefs; some were assassinated during prayers, while others were killed at their homes and farms. A colleague informed me he was targeted alongside his brother while he was in Maiduguri for not supporting the group back then.
As for what happened in Sokoto vast majority of Muslims condemned the killing including yours sincerely, Atiku did what he did just like how Peter Obi and Senator Abaribe identified with IPOB, politicians are not a people you usually identify with good moral compass, they will pander to parochial sentiments no matter how unpopular it may look.

What makes you say Peter Obi "panders" to IPOB. Let's not forget the core objective of IPOB. Secession. Why do these people seek secession? Because of the unfair marginalization of their tribe from national affairs and the threats to her people all around the country.

The IPOB struggle is no different from the Oduduwa republic and Niger delta secessionist agenda previously. All just want a fair and working Nigeria. Peter Obi has always maintained that if Nigeria experienced an upsurge in our GDP and HDI, and had a functioning economy that worked for all, all these things will die a natural death and in the same vein he highly condemns the violent aspects of it.

Oasis007 the radical propagandist. 100k is on the table if you can provide me with an interview of Tinubu!

It's been 3 weeks since I first laid down this offer.
Chief propagandist, please provide information of your drug lord and master being cross-examined on live TV within the last 2 years and collect 100 thousand naira via crypto.

If it is for electoral value, what electoral value did an unknown entity like osinbajo have in 2015? Who knew osinbajo?

So you are saying that among the 100 million northerners, there is no prominent christian that could be selected?
Who knew Jonathan in 2007?
Who knew osinbajo in 2015?
Who knew Alex ekwueme before he was VP?
Who knew namadi sambo in 2011? Where is he now?

VPs rarely carry "electoral value". They are mainly there for representation and visual optics. That Tinubu failed to see this exposes his failure of thought already.

Amoto94:
It is highly insensitive and disingenuous of you to insinuate that Christians are the sole victims of insecurity when the killings follow an indiscriminate pattern. Most of the casualties of insecurity in the North are Muslims I'm not saying that Christians aren't victims as well.
Telling lies unprovoked is your forte so I'm not surprised that you have started another round of lies in labeling Tinubu and Shettima as drug lord and BH apologist and founder, you are also fond of projecting yourself onto others.

I was careful not to attack you in my post so that you won't say I was unnecessarily aggressive but here you are, attacking me..

Christians are being killed on the basis of religion. That's the difference. I'm not just talking about the kidnapping and banditry that doesn't look at tribe. I'm talking of religious terrorism.
Never forget that Boko Haram is a religious terrorist organization before anything. Unlike IPOB who are a secessionist terrorist organization.
Boko Harams ideology's are rooted in Islamic fundamental beliefs. One where they enact radical Islamic views. So don't come here and pretend like you don't know what I mean when I say christians are dying on the basis of religion.

Or is it not in this same country that an innocent girl was killed because she warned her classmates to stop using their class Whatsapp group as a mosque? Is it not this same country where the now Frontline candidate withdrew his condemnation of the killing and sacked his media aids because they dares to condemn the barbaric act and he faced backlash from his people?

When you look at these, how can you not see that it's an insult to the 100 million christians to not represent them on a national ticket?

homesteady:
Aha! I knew there’s no way this matter hasn’t been debated on.
Me to, I was Buhari man in 2015. I even wrote one useless poem for him that got to frontpage
https://www.nairaland.com/2147781/poem-change

Chai! Reading this just reminded me of when I used to actually defend Buhari and Tinubu in 2014.

That's the thing. Only a fool remains adamant on his choice in the face of overwhelming new evidence.

We all wanted change from the PDP led government. We wanted to show the PDP that we were tired of their misrule and we needed to send them a message. To tell them that they were not invincible. But the new party we put did not only fail, they became worse than the problem.

That's why it pains me when people outside the country are still supporting this APC after 7 years, it means they are being insensitive to the suffering of nigerians here.

Amoto94:
Tinubu who couldn't Islamise his wife of over 30years is the one many are accusing of Islamisation agenda, the same empty rhetoric oft-repeated in election cycles yet churches keeps expanding across the country. This is the same message that made SE lose out on SP by voting against Ngige a ranking Senator who would have been the SP by zoning principle agreed b4 2015 General Elections, and the purveyor of such message later decamped to the same party they tagged Islamist Party.

No matter how you people want to twist and turn around this issue, running a Muslim Muslim ticket in this period where we can see christians in Nigeria being killed by the hour is highly insensitive.

And when you look at the candidates you only feel more fear. People are terrified of such a combo winning the election. Former drug dealer and Boko Haram apologist and founder. That is what the ruling party has just fielded. That is unacceptable.

Meanwhile my fellow Yoruba brethren. A very important message for you. You won't like to miss this. Party agent, propagandist. Over to you.

https://twitter.com/OtunbaStanli/status/1547283682322513922?t=et7JupV8sk3sZdElLJPRTw&s=19

I just came across this video on Facebook where a girl is revealing how she has been sexually molested by a female relative who came and picked her from the village.

Now after watching this video, go to the comment section and observe how some very devilish people are actually defending the perpetrator and telling people "not to judge" the molester because we may be doing worse things than the criminal, just that ours isn't exposed.

You see how indeed some people are hopelessly hopeless. I can't understand this affinity to defend crime when we see it rather than outrightly condemn it. Just watch this harrowing experience.

What does my tribe have to do with anything?

Nothing, really. Just curious. Would you be kind to answer?

Android17:
Let me get this straight, they are wise in picking presidents but not governors even when most of their elections happen same period?

I quite agree with you that Buhari is a failure. But anywhere Buhari has failed, Jonathan failed more and will go down as perhaps the worst civilian president in Nigerian history.

Android17, just one question. Are you Yoruba?

Oasis007:


Of course.... I know you're neutral right now and more likely to vote Peter Obi. If not because of your good friend sef, you would have declared your full support for PO Movement.

Do you mean me? On a side note, Is it not foolishness that one would say he doesn't like a candidate because of some of his supporters??
Like? Politics is our life. Politics affects us all. We elect people that formulate policies that touch us directly in one way or the other. We elect people that shape our society via their laws made and enacted.

How then do you say you don't want to vote for who may be the best candidate because you bear a grudge against one of the supporters? Does this make sense?

We have 3 established APC supporters here.
A radical tribalist. A paid party agent with a soul for hire and a propagandist.

All belonging to one tribe.

On Peter obi's side, we have enlightened and intelligent minds like Ibime, an ijaw man, segedinho, an Edo man, homesteady a Yoruba man, I think I'm the only Igbo person here who has declared support for Obi seeing as izzuo is just on the fence.

Emmynator, make of that what you will.
Read this my post below and understand why educated Nigerians without a tribal focus are rushing Peter Obi.

donjazet:
All of us are touched by the effects of bad governance. NEVER SIT ON THE SIDELINES. GET INVOLVED.

POLITICS IS YOUR LIFE. Put in leaders that are capable of working for you, not those bothered about settling scores among themselves and can't get to work effectively because of cabals behind the scenes that they had to settle before assuming the office.

That's why the Peter Obi movement is enticing. It represents a people oriented movement. This was a movement spurred by the people. Peter Obi decamped from the PDP because he saw that his support online was ballooning and people he didn't even know were resting their hopes on him to run, even outside the establishment.

People let's give this a try. Let's see if we can send a seismic shock to the establishment.

Imagine a tiny party that had just 5000 votes in the last election suddenly winning with 15 million votes.
Votes from you and i, votes from people who have never voted before, people who simply didn't care, market women and traders who never bothered to lock up shop to thumbprint for politicians suddenly waking up and seeing that we had the numbers to achieve this.

It's enticing to the average masses.

Don't listen to radical tribalists or paid party agents. Listen to your fellow average Nigerian, the one who can see that tribe has never helped the average Nigerian. Thanks.

Oasis007, please provide me with an interview of Tinubu outlining his vision for this country.

Please let us hear from the ancestor himself who wants to rule a nation of 200 Million people that is on the very cusp of annihilation.

I am ready to pay you to provide just a single video of Tinubu being cross-examined. Being asked tough questions.

Provide me with a similar interview like this below.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=35-kgC_oqdA

Feel like I need to bring this back.

donjazet:
Do you really believe that in spite of these criminal records, that if Tinubu was passionate about enacting positive change in Nigeria, he really didn't have the clout and political machinery to achieve this?

His stooge was the vice president of the country.
His own wife has been a senior senator for several years.
His stooge is the speaker of the house of representatives.
He has at least 15 senators in his pocket.
He has at least 10 ministers in his pocket.
He was the other half of the grand coalition of the ruling party.

Do you believe that with all these at his disposal, this man couldn't effect change in the country or at the very least SPEAK UP and REVOLT when he saw how terrible the leadership which he foisted upon us became?

But no, he didn't speak up because he was a very part and parcel of the problem. He couldn't speak up because of his selfish ambition, so he decided to let the country burn to the ground so as not to gore some powerful oxes. So as not to step on the wrong toes. He let nigeria burn on the alter of selfish ambition.

And here we are, we the masses foolishly lining up behind this criminal traitor of his country to lend our voices and support. To defend his criminal past. Things we would be ashamed of our own parents or children doing, we are ready to accept it for a politician who doesn't care one bit about us.
How foolish can we be? Our mumu never too much?

IamWonderful:
Igbos are here already doing their job

Surely you know you are fighting a losing battle.

OhBritannia:
Gbam!!! You have said it all.
The most heartbreaking aspect of all these, are those that lost their lives in the Lekki massacre.
The innocents are getting shot while the activist are receiving pay checks in secret.
The situation of Nigeria is too heartbreaking, even GOD is ashame of the people.

How on earth will a Nigerian with full sense vote and campaign for Tinubu and Atiku?


Somethings happens in Nigeria and you just begin to wonder the kind of people you share the country with.
The problem of Nigeria now is that the bad and selfish people outnumbered the good and sincere ones.
Brother!!!! We are greatly outnumbered.

TRIBALISM TRIBALISM TRIBALISM! That's your answer.

The vast majority of Tinubu supporters are moved primarily by tribal sentiment.

There is a certain allure that comes from someone of your own place being at the top even if the person is now literally a vegetable. So far as the president bears a similar name to yours and speaks your language. That's qualification enough.

I just pray these people come to their senses and realize that these corrupt elite are all there for themselves and don't care for the average man no matter the tribe. Money is universal.

This mumu still dey here dey defend the indefensible since morning.
You no dey shame say you dey defend drug baron like say na your papa. Meanwhile shishi you no dey see from am. No be mental slavery be this?

The larrides out there are shaking in their boots.
Hundeyin shock them.

Tinubu propaganda group on fire!!

They don't know how to fight the messaging. They are coordinating their responses which their foot soldiers will rally behind.

I’m dancing with “If”?? What?? I’m literally the only one here that is speaking with evidence and you are saying I’m dancing with IFs.
Which kind wahala be this?

Classic gaslighting tactics. They make you question your own reality.

Android17:
I keep telling you how the law works. Tinubu does not have to explain why he forfeited it. The person making the allegation has to prove the allegations.

You may be right but it was not proven. Therefore it reverts to what it was ab initio, which is that he is innocent.

Why would you as an average individual care about the full legality of the entire procedings when you can already deduce that the person is guilty?

It's just like when I tell you ikpeazu of abia state is a corrupt thief and you start telling asking me for proof of his criminal indictment when we can already deduce with some facts on ground that he is indeed corrupt.

Some this gaslighting. TINUBU WAS A DRUG BARON AND MONEY LAUNDERER.

Stop falling heads over hills over a very dirty and shady character who just wants to continue to steal our children's future.
