Lmaoo I should assess a drug lord's manifesto?
So if the devil has "good" plans for you, you'll consider it?🤭🤭

You dey mind them? All these are just to mask the primordial sentiments behind his decision.

FBS:
It's "interesting" that some are claiming to want the best for the country but not willing to objectively assess each of the aspirants.
I find that very repulsive.

Is this your first day on this thread??

He say na "objectively assess". Because the videos of Tinubu's visible hand tremor we're seeing is not enough. The occasional jetting out for health treatment is not enough.

The fact that we do not know who the man's father is, where this man went to primary school, who gave birth to him, his real age. The fact that he can't provide all these is not enough for us to know this man shouldn't have even passed the screening not to talk 9f being president and you're still here talking about "being objective"..

Oga how is that plank in your eye? Is it too blinding??

raumdeuter:
Do they need to tell you that its hatred that drives them ?

That won't stop Asiwaju on February 25

Dayo who are the "them" here? And to which kind of hatred are we talking about?

We've been down this road before, if it didn't dey, E didn't what??

Are we really going to vote for an identity thief who in his quest to hide his origins shamelessly stole other people's childhood picture in order to for the Oasis's of this world to repackage him?

Are we going to vote for an unknown entity whose record leaves a trail of massive endemic corruption and public deceit?

Again see the date!!

A man with documented case of Alzheimer's and dementia for 9 solid years.

Will a sick man rule us after a president has died in office and another ruled from hospital?

NEVER!!!

But wait oo, is it really "hate" that we are asking to know the basic biography of a whole presidential candidate who seeks to rule us??

Are we going to let fake graphic designs divert our attention away from the fact that a presidential candidate of the ruling party is someone with no proven genealogy??

We don't know his father, we don't know his mother, we don't know where he was born, we don't know which schools he attended?

Have we really thought about the implications of such a candidacy? The insult this portrays on our intelligence?

The Grandmaster of corruption in Nigeria!!

Not one! But two full bullion vans of cash!!

Try to imagine just how much stolen money would fit in 2 full bullion vans and arrogantly boasting about how he's richer than a state.

All the money inside here used to foist this failure called Buhari on us!

Make una wise up oo.

Meanwhile Oasis'seniors in 2015.

Propaganda na your mate?

Highlight comments from paid urchins across social media and make them appear like casual users.

Like nigerians will suddenly forget the atrocities of the past 8 years and go and thumbprint for the APC again.
Keep dreaming

FBS:
If only people can listen to and assess the candidates objectively and not be blinded by the hate in their minds.

12 days to go!

Very easy position for you to take while chilling ina very comfortable position afar!

Yeah nigerian Politics is now basically like a chess board for you while we are your pawns for entertainment. Our lives here are a sideshow so you feel a sick old man in a demonic party is very okay to lead this country while there are much better options available.

Condescension much?

A criminal drug baron and more.

Yeah right!!

I remember how we were also deceived by all these with buhari.

Na only propaganda here and there.
If it didn't dey, it didn't dey.

Candidate wey Dem dey hide like palliative.

Yet another professional polling. The same projection as the rest!

Nigerians are fired up for Obi. We will not let this rare opportunity pass us bye.

We will never let this evil party with evil agenda continue to hold the reins of power.
NEVER AGAIN!

Expect more of these kind of news within the following weeks.. Easterners are now openly rising up against this minority group.

OasisX:
Gbaja is cooking for future. Free ride for Residents of his Constituency. 35 Buses [GbajaRide] launched to commuting 7000 Passengers everyday.

Yeah the rat strikes again.

You are the same person that mocked a governor for sharing kerosene to the masses but here you are, applauding the very same electoral gimmick..

You of all people know that all these rubbish schemes is a way to cajole voters this election cycle and then forget them for the next 4 years, meanwhile this was the same person who has overseen one of the very worst house of representatives in Nigeria's history. From endemic corruption of padded budgets to abandoning his constituents to study abroad while in service.

And now he's buying 35 buses..

What the hell is 35 buses going to do for lagosians in his constituency? Imagine, 35 buses and you think it's worth of adulation! Shame on you!!

Meanwhile I wouldn't expect you to know that in sane climes, legislators are not responsible for carrying out executive projects like these, their sole function is to make and draft laws and oversee committees, not carry out so-called "projects".

Please I hope everyone here is fired up 🔥🔥 for this elections next week Saturday??

Make sure you have your PVCs ready, we attack this wicked government next week at the polls, armed with our PVCs..

Don't miss out on this!! If you are above 18 years of age and you don't have your PVC. Calling you a fool is an insult to fools!

We march to the polls next week. GET READY!

Very interesting piece dissecting the rapid growth and forces behind this new phenomenon we have witnessed this election cycle and it's chances of success next week Saturday.

Very nice piece indeed.

BY REGINALD TOBIN

In this country, it is unlikely for a Presidential aspirant who is not running under the two major political parties to be a contender in the election. That person will not even gather massive support in the first place.

The few supporters who may hang around such person may likely be family members, close associates and people who must have been paid to do so.

However, In the build up to the 2023 elections which is not too far from now, things seem to be taking a different turn.

Labour Party’s Presidential candidate, Mr. Peter Obi seems to be changing the paradigm and bringing a new wave into the Nigerian political arena. His cause is fast gathering momentum.

Obi had first declared his intention to vie for the highest political office in the country under the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party. But Obi, in what i call a strategic political calculation quickly resigned from the PDP and joined Labour Party to pursue his ambition, going ahead to clinch the party’s Presidential Ticket. That, I consider a smart move.

Obi knew he stood no chance in the PDP, since his kind of politics does not reckon with that of the party. If you must win the Presidential ticket of the PDP, you must be ready to get involved in the “dollar play,” and it is obvious Obi wasn’t in for such. Hence he looked for another platform to pursue his ambition.

It is evident that Obi’s party, Labour, does not have the required structure or even finance to wrestle the Presidential seat with the big wigs, but Obi’s persona has since elevated and brought upon the party a good number of supporters and volunteers which I believe the party has never had since it’s formation.

Obi’s supporters have completely taken over the social media space. I know elections won’t be conducted on social media anyway. But even out of social media, a good number of Nigerians are also routing for him. They cut across young and old people from different ethnic and religious divides. Obi’s supporters and volunteers are numerous.

It’s true that not all Obi’s supporters are registered voters. While some are, some are not. But if those who wish that he becomes President in 2023 all have their permanent voters cards ready before election, I am sure that the Anambra born Businessman and Politician will do far better than some political analysts have predicted.

Still don’t be surprised if before the election, it turns out that about 90 percent of his supporters are eligible voters, because the rate at which his people troop into INEC registration centers to register and get their PVCs is alarming. I have two persons in my workplace who have registered because they want to vote for him. If there is one thing I know, it is that Obi’s supporters are real and genuine. Anyone in doubt of this is certainly not in touch with reality.

But For Obi, a man who is not willing to throw money around unlike his rivals in other parties to still warm his way into the heart of the masses is striking and surprising. Ideally, that is how it ought to be, but that hasn’t been the case in Nigeria anyway.

Obi alone has formed the most popular third force in Nigeria’s politics in recent times.

But what could be Obi’s selling point? Is it because his region (South East) ideally ought to produce the next President of the country? is it because of his style of politics or his past record in public office and style of governance?

As governor of Anambra State, it is a known fact that Obi managed the state’s resources judiciously and paid more attention to things of value, like education. It is also said that he handed over 75billion naira to his successor, while vacating office after his tenure as governor.

For me, one thing I have seen in him is sincerity. Obi is sincere, even when he speaks, you see it in his words. So far, he is the only aspirant who I feel has better knowledge of reviving the economy through local production and one who will prioritize education. Under Obi, maybe our universities will no longer go on strike. The issues between Federal Government and ASUU may also be a thing of the past.

Personally, I like Obi. I like his politics. I like his person. I like the fact that he doesn’t try to be like other politicians just to win the people over. He tells you he doesn’t share money and he doesn’t. Love him or hate him, it doesn’t change him. He is just himself.

I know very well that Peter Obi’s support base is still growing. Day after day, more people are joining his ship. But, he still has some work to do. Apart from the East where he is most likely to have grassroot support, Obi’s supporters in other geo political zones are mostly found in urban areas. He needs to begin to hit the grassroots. He needs to start building structures for his party around the country, especially the north. He needs to further strengthen his campaign all over the country. He needs to begin work immediately. If he can achieve this, then, his road to victory will not have too many hurdles. I wish him well.

It's good you want to find out before involving yourself. QNET isn’t a Ponzi scheme, and they don’t recruit people, either. They’re simply an e-commerce direct selling platform where you only earn when you sell products. You may visit their website, www.qnet.net, to find out more. Good luck!

You speak like an agent of the organization.

How exactly does one get his ROI? How does the company work if not like a Ponzi?

Yeah right, you're not an alternate, just like this one below is also not an alternate.
But I guess, when he starts fight, you will suddenly become active to add spice for him from the side.

Just like I'm sure this one is also not your alternate.
