₦airaland Forum

Nigerians, please get your PVC and vote Peter Obi. Only 15% of nigerians voted in the last election. 85% did not vote. This means there are soo many untapped voters. There are 26 million Nigerian students across all tertiary institutions. Youths, let's wake up and take back our country.

Let's vote a fresh party. Don't fall for all the fake of paid accounts by PDP \APC media troll farms demoralizing or gaslighting you into voting for either of them.
Our future is in our hands.
Vote Peter Obi. Shishi we no dey give.

Many Peter Obi supporters are very much aware that Peter Obi alone would not solve Nigeria's problem alone.

The legislature is as powerful as the executive. But we do know that in giving Pete Obi the mandate of leadership not only of the country but of the party, he would be able to push other candidates across the line electorally l and also make them fall in line and

The man leads by action unlike the living corpse at aso rock.

I still cannot understand the highly pessimistic Nigerians that are deciding to bury their heads in sand and beat their chest to say Peter Obi can NEVER win.

The Peter Obi campaign that started online has gone offline and ground game has started, to deny this is to keep denying reality. It means you have decided to cling to hopelessness instead of joining others to do something about your failing country that needs you. I posted a GoFundMe link here that aimed to raise 1 billion naira, the donation is now up to 87 million naira.
TakeBAckNigeria is a PAC that has Nigerians now meeting at cell levels to organize.

Nigerians are taking action and you decide to be blind to it and hopeless about Nigeria's situation, well boo fvcking hoo, that's your loss.
If you would rather maintain the terrible status quo or recycle these shameless thieves in government or worse do nothing about it, that's on your conscience and it is all our loss.

Nigeria has a historically low voting performance. Only 15 percent of our total population voted, compare that with France's 78% at their last election and UK's 69% election turnout, you see where we're targeting.

With Peter obi's campaign, Atiku has already lost 1\3 of his last election voters. Peter obi's campaign intends to activate the apathetic voters. The larger NON-VOTING populace and it's working, within the last 2 months, INEC offices have been flooded by newly registered voters. It's very doable.
Just do your part and leave the rest for your fellow citizens.

God Bless Yoruba People..
God Bless Yoruba Land...

Yoruba people are the real elite of this nation. They are liberal, educated to the core & social.

Olori Pelebes that are bunch of unserious, unrelenting clowns betraying the Nigerian state for more than half a century would surely avoid this thread or come here to spew trash as usual but they are the architect of their own troubles in Nigeria and not the Yorubas. Yorubas never asked them to live in two countries at once...

I'm very disappointed in you.

Please while, we're all making these permutations, let's not forget that the most important thing to do is to get our PVC that enables us to participate in the process.
Havertz10, donstan18, seankafor and other apathetic nairalanders, please ensure that you don't disenfranchise yourself, our vote is the power we have collectively to change the trajectory of our country and it happens just once in 4 years.
Please guys, go to the nearest INEC office around you and register to vote.
Likewise our diasporan brothers, please visit the Nigerian embassies website or go there and register.

Havertz10:
heard better trash bro

like I said plenty do but no how

that last analogy

Then click this link, this has everything you're looking for in Peter Obi, if this doesn't satisfy you, then you know that the problem is from you.

It will show that you've completely closed your mind towards anybody. No need engaging you further If this doesn't satisfy you.
Click the link and be marveled. Ask yourself if any other contestant has opened himself as much as this man.

This guy below, sarki is one of the most bigoted tribalist nairaland has ever seen and has apparently become OBI-dient.
If this guy who was a buhari fanatic has indeed started supporting Obi, then there is no doubt in my mind that obi's movement is now unstoppable.

The average Nigerian youth has gotten onboard. 2023 will be a shocker for many.

Ibime, izzuo, donstan18, Jude etc.
What do you guys make of this statement by Obi??
Does it satisfy any doubt about his intentions and plans?

Segedinho:
I have seen campaign for tinubu and what is it all about.

50mill youth to be recruited into the Nigeria Army and we be fed with agbado,garri and cassava.

Also..about OBJ takes on atiku's.

So in essence, the videos about these candidates are the people demarketing them. Showing how bad these candidates are for Nigeria. That's nice.

My own side nobody has even campaigned for any of them, na Peter Obi everybody dey talk about.

Oldboss:
this is just long talk do you think Hausa illiterate knows who Peter obi is about labour Party they aren't concerned about choosing a sensible person for the presidential position it all about tribe or religion.

Well yes, Obi is known nationwide, not too long ago, he was on the national ticket for the main opposition, so yeah, he's as popular as any national politician is.
But I do get your point, people need more sensitization for the labour party to be known nationwide and steps are already being made by various Peter Obi supporters.

Right now, Peter Obi supporters are the one organizing their own mini campaigns and spreading his name far and wide. Eg, see the little efforts of his followers in various parts of the country.

I have just one question for everyone here.

Is there anybody who has not seen any campaign for peter obi on his\her Whatsapp status within the last 2 weeks??

Personally, I have not seen any single person campaign for tinubu or Atiku on any of my contact status, but numerous people have campaigned for Peter Obi.

I ask again, is there anybody here who has not seen a single campaign for Peter Obi on their status?

In 2015, people also thought the great PDP can never be dislodged. They held 28 out of 36 governorship seats, 71 senator seats out of 105 and super majority in the house. But Nigerians successfully dislodged them.
WE CAN DO IT AGAIN!!

My fellow nairalanders, you would be doing yourselves a great disservice to not join this movement.. this is not football where if your rivals team loses, it is to your benefit. Nigeria belongs to us all, we are all in the same team. If our team loses, it affects us all.

You look at Peter Obi, you see a man that tries to implement his own values. A minor example is this, People have observed how he constantly recycles some dresses. Most of his pictures, you see him wearing a black senator traditional and a simple shoe. Sometimes even rumpled.
Not that he doesn't have the money but it's him projecting and imbibing his personal frugality. Images like these help in projecting the necessity of cutting down excesses, not just in political setting but our personal lives but I digress..

Many people following Peter Obi are not doing so because they see him as a saint but because they have seen what he represents.

A frugal government that; cuts out excesses from government spending, that plugs the leakages in our economy.
That provides transparency in government spending and earning.
That uses his experience to enact policies that map out pathways to industrialization. His numerous interviews centers on this particular viewpoint.
He represents a new political order in our country. We know we are the underdogs right now. But many of us are putting in the effort offline to draw more into the fold. The number of new INEC registration is something that exposes the result of these efforts. More than 90% of newly registered voters are for Peter Obi.

Peter Obi supporters went from a fringe minority group to being a consistent dominating topic across the political spaces in less than one month. Think of what can happen within the next 6 months.
I made almost every single friend and family of mine consistently post the INEC website link on their Whatsapp status for more than 2 weeks. I started by telling them that even if they were not interested in the process, it would do no harm to post it, I enticed some with credit, by the end of the 2 weeks, they had all registered. Persistence pays!

Please you stand to gain nothing by derailing this movement. ALL ABOARD!!

What really are some of you thinking? Like what's going through some of you head? What do you stand to gain by derailing this movement? Why the uncalled for and unnecessary hate towards this man.

I would be the last person to totally idolize any politician as a human being but I can love what they represent and stand for.

No single politician is a saint. None! For you to climb up to a political leadership position means some uncanny shenanigans have taken place but then you judge the politicians by their actions when in and after office. How well they performed comparative to their peers and what legacy they leave behind. Important to note that Peter Obi won on the mandate of Ojukwu. Both of them were rigged of their results but Obi defiantly fought in the courts to claim his rightfully won right.

I have highlighted this man's legacy of quality education in Anambra.
I have highlighted his overqualified experience as a leader and administrator. A chairman of Nigerian stock exchange and Nigerian securities exchange commission. A managing director of fidelity bank etc etc.
Hitherto the rise of nnamdi kanu, Anambra state was one of the most peaceful states to be in. Unfortunate his successor and regional leaders couldn't nip this in the bud.

Should we talk economics of the state? One where his frugality was indeed second to none? Where he was one of the first governors to ban state lawmakers from using sirens before yaradua mandated it nationwide?? Where he consistently had a balanced budget? Unlike some governors who had to borrow money to pay workers salaries or outrightly owe them, He made sure every pensioner got their gratuity and no worker was ever owed salary or paid in percentages.

Yes, within all these excellence, there is bound to be flaws, but no doubt at all that his flaws are heavily masked by his excellence and that's what you want in any political leader.
What does Peter Obi represent??

He represents the chance for Nigerians to give the middle finger to the status quo, to tell them that we've had enough of their shameless stealing and sharing of our resources right before our eyes. These people are stealing our future literally! Borrowing money untop our head and mortgaging our future. Selling off our national assests while we're onlookers and Then plundering the money borrowed. I can go on and on but that will only make this post longer.

So again I tell you, peter represents our chance to change the status quo, the same thing we did in 2015 is what we want to pull off again. Don't say never!!

You can watch this video below and see for yourself, the full achievements of Peter Obi.

Havertz10:
people like to use gdp to define the value of countries, to me it’s doesn’t show the true picture

In the world today, the wealth of a country is very dependent on how much value you add to the global economy, and value creation is very low in Nigeria, someone buys cocoa for 20m, exports it to Finland, makes chocolate, sells it for 200m

The African man is happy that he sold a product but it’s the man that created value that got the most bang for his effort, to make it even more amusing, he will export that product back into Nigeria

This concept of building as much value as possible, and redirecting processes that produce little value to other countries in order maximize profit is the difference between a poor country today and a rich country

Even with maximum outputs from every resource, all our exports forced on the world from oil to yams, Nigeria wouldn’t make more money than South Korea that has no resources
It will cost more than 400b $ to completely fix power in Nigeria, and total exports are less than 50b $, where do you want to get money to pay for it, we haven’t even talked about farming optimization and logistics networks, education, human capital development or medicine, Nigeria no get money Bros
resources should are a luxury that affords its owners privileges, under certain conditions it can feed its people but Nigeria doesn’t have those kind of resources and the world is moving away from oil, no one is investing in the supply side that much anymore, only value creation can produce improve Nigeria

Jude, have you registered to vote?
Do you have your PVC?
Who is your preferred candidate for the presidency next year?

Abeg give me d link make me sef follow

It's now at 62 thousand.
Imagine having 62 thousand new followers under 6 hours.

The youths are cooking. Come 2023. We go serve these evil men breakfast.

Havertz10:
Country of 200m and people will be celebrating followers on twitter
Less than 5m use twitter in Nigeria, if you factor people outside the country, dormant account, bots and teens, you will remove at least 2/3

Factor people’s behavior and you will see that you aren’t getting anything done there
The same way it’s easy to like than it is to retweet is the same way it’s easy to join a movement online but difficult to accomplish any form of social change, people will naturally behave like sheep, add the bandwagon ergonomic structure of social media, you will see that even with a million followers, 100k votes self, no sure for you
stop celebrating insignificant things

JUDE stop being foolish for foolishness sake.

Have you got your PVC?
Who do you wish to become the president of our country??

Pick a side and let it known, if not stop criticizing the people who care enough about our country to actually do something about it.

Pick a GODDAMN side.

Our collective vision.

The youths are in labour now, we will deliver, come 2023.

A very short story.

This train is moving very fast. All aboard!

lordfalcao:
you that is not an illiterate is now asking illiterate questions..

All the interviews he has been speaking on how Nigeria can work since 2019 till now. Have you checked any..
You have smartphone and data, is not meant for posting meme only

Nice one.

No matter what we say, they've made up their mind.
Many of these Peter Obi naysayers are either people who have settled for APC or PDP candid8and have decided to recycle these same corrupt lots or people who have decided not to vote next year.
This affords them the opportunity to just bastardize efforts of those voting.

I know that feeling myself. I'm not a hardcore fan of either Ronaldo or Messi, so if I jam either of their supporters, it's easy to rile them up with reasons why the other is better than their favored. Not taking a position on issues is a lofty position to be in. It's Very easy to criticize than align.

I swear twitter na cruise, I don laugh tire. Nigerians not smiling.

iamoyindamola:
I don't know why this guy is actively trying to dethrone henben
Always off point

Personal values are personal values, when I was on my crusade against Roman, I did that from a point of personal conviction and values, you guys said I should accept reality, I did that, now you're telling us to look for a squeaky clean politician, how sensible is that?

[color=royalblue] I'm happy some of you Obidient fellows are getting triggered

That was/is my aim from the beginning

So who is your candidate izuchukwu??
We need to turn this country around. We need someone who is capable of delivering and has the experience of doing that, that man is Peter Obi, show me your own?

You're criticizing and criticizing, show me your own!

Who do you think is the best in handling this country?

izzou:
[color=royalblue] Celebrities and entertainers are supporting him, so therefore you should support

Phyno and Flavour can afford to live in the USA for one calendar year if the country is unfavorable for them. They are rich enough not to know the current electricity rate, cooking gas price or even the percentile of inflation

So it's okay to pitch your tent with a corrupt and criminal billionaire, but the standard for every politician must be crystal clean. Where is this same realism you advocated for? Peter Obi is a saint when compared to other politicians but yes he is flawed too as every human, YOU taught me that. Make it make sense abeg.

Havertz10:
obi is now a societal messiah

My issue with him asides his husky voice is that he keeps on saying I did and I will do, without saying how he wants to do it

He is better than others no doubt, but any kind of progress that his victory would accomplish even long term, isn’t worth the effort that it will take to make obi president he is just like the others, just slightly more aware

that’s my take on the obi issue, all these drags na banter

Are you sure you're not just a very confused fella, Jude??
I don comot hand for your matter.

You just said that Peter Obi is the best of the candidates but the effort to put him there is not worth it?

No be ment be this, Jude?

afrodoc2:

Doci, abeg I get side issue wey need clarification. I've been with this girl now for a small bit of time, like 2 months now.
She doesn't rinse her teeth after brushing, of course she does spit the "foam" out but she doesn't rinse with water. She argues that that's actually the best method of brushing, that rinsing with water removes the floride of the paste from the mouth.

But I just find it a bit difficult kissing her because of this. What's your say on this?
Mind you this girl, she's actually very learned and educated, studied economics and is the manager of a hotel her father owns.
