The rest. This last piece better sums it up very very nicely.

Insightful piece from David hundeyin. Captures the exact definition of the naysayers we have here.

SMUG CYNICISM.

BlueRayDick:
Continued.

Solid points.
We don pass this level of persuasion na why.

I seriously doubt that any single eligible voter on this thread is yet to make up his mind. We've all made our choices and are just waiting for 2 weeks time.

Meanwhile obi at the pfn summit.
Just see the welcome and adulation this man is garnering.

Better oil dey this man head.

Good to see them coming out of their shells to own their devilish talking points, finally!
Just look at Joe, someone who claims to have gone to America but still caged in tribalistic mindset.

As being tribal will add anything to your life abroad. You've escaped Nigeria but have refused to escape the Factors that inhibit her success. May God help us.

Emaprince:
Trash talk.

Are you accusing him of condemning the dress choice of Muslims?

You just make up something in your head and start vomiting it .

Your surprise dey surprise me.
The fact that you are surprised by this is what is funny about this post.

This mans candidacy offers nigerians a rare chance to break the shackles of the 2 establishment parties.

Obi winning the election would have widespread implications. All politicians and citizens will now realise that power truely lies in hands of the people and things will definitely change.

raumdeuter:
Been long someone posted screenshot

You will know today is the outing day at the madhouse where they allow inmates to use phones

Yes oo. We in the madhouse at least want what is best for nigeria, not just voting because of where the candidate is from.

You the sane ones far away that keep misleading Nigerians to make terrible choices are the ones we have to tackle.
Meanwhile this your 5th paragraph is really funny. Maybe you can shed light on that 5th paragraph.

Pictorial evidence just incase.

Someone once famously said,

"If you are in the south west, I urge you to vote for buhari, osinbajo is OUR SON, we cannot leave OUR SON, and vote for someone else. Let Obi people vote for their son!

If U like, swallow the brainwashing amalanomics.

Ellexy:
Remind me again how many years Lagos was Nigeria's Capital?

The fact you even had to bite the red pill.

You really believe that nonsense?
The same person who said and I quote,

"AFTER BUHARI, IT COMES BACK TO THE SOUTH WEST, AFTER SW, IT GOES TO NE, AFTER THAT, THEN OSHIMOLE, IF THEY MAKE NOISE, THEY WILL MEET THE FULL WRATH OF THE NIGERIAN ARMY.

Meanwhile

Page 1400!!!!

My proclamation still stands firm that by page 1500. Peter Obi becomes his excellency, the Grand commander of the federal republic of Nigeria!

Ellexy:
Oga answer the question them ask you na, why you dey support Tinubu?

Get ready for massive gaslighting. Me I dey on stand by with receipts.

We must fight the propaganda tooth and nail. Bumper to bumper.

OasisX:


Nobody knew a Party that has produced a State Governor?

And how many votes did they get at the presidency?
In the last 3 elections, they've had less than 5 thousand votes.
But you already know what I mean.

I keep saying it, this Peter Obi movement is one that will be studied in all Political academic endeavours.

This time last year, NOBODY knew or heard of Labor party. Today it has been elevated to frontrunner status, how on earth did this happen?

Don't ignore the giant red flags!!!
Don't let demons deceive you into stepping into fire with your two eyes wide open.

GTOkowa:
Will u too also accept that u are supporting Tinubu cos of u re Yoruba?

Very eager to hear the answer to this make we fall out receipt sharp sharp.

Ellexy:
When ever you see or hear the following lines..

All of them are the same
None of them impresses me
None of them can effect any change
I'm staying neutral
They're all corrupt

Just know you're dealing with Corn-beef.

Your head dey there!

"All of them are exactly the same so we should just fold out hands and do nothing because the country will never be good".
While constantly mocking Peter Obi. Agenda na your mate.

Another poor attempt to gaslight and mislead.

Dayo are you trying to say that INEC does not rig elections in Nigeria?? The way you are employing the use of false equivalence and strawmanship to digress from the point being made is just pitiful.
There are legitimate concerns for rigging of elections in a country that has barely ever had a free and fair election so stop squashing people's concerns about election fraud.
It's what we know happens

raumdeuter:
Every rabble rouser will shout that their accusation is sensitive.

Oh I see INEC chairman coming out of FolaShade Tinubus bedroom
I see Atiku doing chop knuckle with Emefiele to punish Nigerians
I see Obi delivering one server to INEC office

In an election every party will scream bias and cry wolf at everything to gather public sympathy

On this Naira redesign alone
Some have gone from
APC and CBN are sharing fake Naira note,
Naira notes are just coloring

To This is a very good policy, We should not release new notes

From the same people different narrative

raumdeuter:
Giving it hot hot is not how a journalist act. He is expected to be level headed while making his points not just screaming

The way you keep gaslighting people here is just damn impressive.

You in America that watches CNN, Fox News and MSNBC want to tell us that you don't see the way journalists there lampoon politicians or take on activist roll.

But because rufia doesn't align with this terrible status quo, he's now a bad person Abi?

Bros, abeg pity us! Abeg!

Ellexy:
I'm familiar with your game, you can't fool me.

You've been active here since morning when we raised the issue, you refused to indulge on the matter all day but immediately you noticed INEC has unliked the unfortunate post, you now came out with your watery attempts.

Dey play

This is the gaslighting technique I keep warning you guys about.

The twisting of logic to make one deny and question their own realities..

Just see how he kept denying and denying that it happened. Both him and dayo. When I tell you that these people don't have Nigeria's best interest at heart, you people think I'm joking. Its soo easy to make such terrible decisions from afar wherein you're exempt from the consequences. All because you want to satisfy primordial sentiments.

BlueRayDick:
Ẹni pé? U say wetin?

We dinnor hear u for back sir!

Omoo, e shock me too as I read am.
I was like, na my eyes dey pain me so?

BlueRayDick:
Allow him to dey play. Anybody who is sincere knows that one of the major problems we have in modern day Nigeria is the high cost of governance. I watched a video in which Peter Obi talked about his early days as governor; he narrated how a large number of people always follow him to meetings in Abuja and other part of the country; a meeting which only his presence is required. Yet the state will have to pay millions in Traveling expenses, hotel accommodation and allowances for all the people that accompany him on the journey.

He saw it as wastage and decided to prune down the number of these so called aides who just exist to spend the state's funds. We have so many useless special assistants here and there, so many cars in governors, deputy governors and speaker of the house convoy...etc

You see that video ehh, that video was practically a powerful dynamite for him, and I mean the whole thing!! Any single neutral who watches that video was immediately attracted to his candidacy. There are 2 more that practically sold him to people.

The one he did in America and the video with the radio programme, brekete family.
Those 3 videos are practically responsible for this movement you see.

The Man! The Myth!! The Legend!!

How this man built up this movement to this point needs to be studied.. He was vastly underrated. Called a youth's rebellious phase that would soon pass. Called a spur of the moment.

Well he's here, building bridges across the country and winning hearts and minds while the others are mires in chaos and infighting. Not knowing the path forward.

A MAN FILLED WITH GRACE!

Such a beautiful scientific work.
The most sophisticated polling ever done in Nigeria.

Not only using data and accurate statistical models but the sheer ground that was covered..

Polling remains the only tool used to analyse candidate support in any election in any part of the world and clearly Peter obi is the most viable and favorable candidate going into the elections. Which by itself is a political phenomenon.

How did this happen??
How did we get here??

This very time last year, NOBODY knew this man, he flew under the radar, so how exactly did his name get into everyone's lips and mind just within a few months. I would really like to know how it happened..
Can someone really describe this??

GloriousGbola:
At this point Buhari should just port. He has fked up the election for his party, quite possibly irredeemably.

There may be a huge protest /punishment vote BlueRayDick style. And it will have been earned.

Fuc-k this man.

You sound as if you are just waking up from a 4 year coma. like it's just today you're realizing what we've been saying since.

Anyways, welcome to the obidient camp. It's never late.

See as they were just accurately defining oasis here.

BlueRayDick:
So I've not been able to get fulls details of the Lawan-Machina case , but I got the excerpt above from Punch Newspaper's reporting of the judgement and Machina's camp reaction.

Nice summary.
I guess this is a healthy reminder that our judiciary system is also on the ballot.
The executive is responsible for nominating judges. And obi represents our best chance of appointing better judges and not just politically motivated judges.

Theflint1:
Solar ain't that cheap either, most don't pay for themselves until say like 5 years, not sure how the battery is supposed to last beyond five years too. I checked the quotation for a 3.5KW + 700W setup with 12 solar panels and it came to about 2.8M.

Absolutely spot on. Why it's that high is that every single component is imported. So this is one area where exchange rate is fvcking us badly.

A001:
Nigeria needs to study how countries like Egypt, Morocco, Tunisia, and Algeria, who are the most electrified countries in Africa, can achieve 24-hour power supply.

Even common Gabon down there has more stable power supply than Nigeria, who has the largest economy in Africa.

It's more practical for Nigeria to emulate the models of these African countries than the UK model, which is not so relevant to the discussion.

It's not in everything that blacks must copy the whites.

I don't even buy all this subsidy talk. Get rid of corruption and make the taxation system more efficient and watch Nigeria solve most of its problems.

Nigerian politicians, who steal trillions of naira yearly, make the country poor.

No country on Earth can prosper and make progress with this level of looting.

Then the national assembly members are arguably the highest paid in the world.

These are great financial obligations that weigh heavily on the country.

Subsidy shouldn't be the major focus of the discussion.

I agree with this sentiment 100 percent. At the end of the day, it all boils down to corruption once again.

Olowunl01:
If Ghana can provide steady electricity and its citizens afford to pay, I disagree with the notion that Nigerians wont be able to afford it, Ghanians are even paying VAT on top.

All these figures quoted by discos as subsidy are just paddy paddy payments to connected people; Let everyone get prepaid meter - and let the bloody thing pay for it self? What exactly are we paying subsidy for? New Generation or New Transmission? Improved availability?
Let the government charge prevailing market rates for the power its asset are generating...

Very excellent point made here, some of those figures quoted are as a result of grand corruption within the system.. one where they still use estimated billing and oga's can quote any amount on paper to get their cut.
In a place where every single person is using prepaid meter. I think it solves the problem.
