Kudos to him and enugu governor who employed a yoruba man to head his media broadcast teams.

Isokotolopia:
Abati website is not a reliable source abeg,

sauce please

Attack the message, not the messenger.

This is a land mine thread, planted to be used against Soludo if he ever decides to run for presidency many years from now. They did it against Peter Obi too.

Watch out.

Sharpsharp00123:
list 10 ways obi made life better for an average anambra person as governor?

Even if I stuff the 100 reasons down your throat, you will still swallow it, sleep and deny you ahead the reasons. That's what hate does to a person like you.

Jamb has gone full tribal this time around.

Dc14:
Cause i still dnt get it. Obi obi shey na im better pas for nigeria. Make person tell me abeg

He is the best among all the people that contested. If his mandate is given to him, by now you would have been buying fuel for #120 because subsidy was always a scam.

The corrupt people in Nigeria are trying to stop Peter Obi so they can continue feasting on the poor people's wealth.

Who God has blessed, no man can curse.

Mrs Ajibade says hi

Opolopoopolonio:
Extremely faulty argument

Only in Nigeria do you see drivers and gatemen living in their own houses despite earning 30k minimum wage without having to pay mortgage for the rest of their lives

And who says you can easily earn USD60 in the US without having to work your asssss out

Aside banking and teaching in Nigeria, most jobs are easy. Also, not everybody stays in Lagos where there is much stress.

They have arrived, the people that are poor in their spirit.

BabaRamota1980:
Ogbeni, stop splashing Aircraft fire and rescue truck up and down.

Those are not municipal fire trucks, they are aircract rescue trucks, to put out fire and rescue passengers. They are kept at airports.

Since Anambra is backward sha, you probably use yours inside the big village.

FAA has couple of aircraft fire trucks. Ziggler is just a brand, nothing special to the name.

Show us Ekiti state aircraft fire truck or shut up

4TFK:
How was Obi rigged out? Obi was properly defeated to a distant third by Tinubu.Is it same Obi who could only score 25% in 16 states is the one you consider as winner?If you say first position was stolen from Obi,was the second position also stolen from him?Use your sen+ se bro.

Yes, that's what the EU sued INEC for, that's why we're 9n this thread.

Some people can never borrow sense.

You're still asleep, stop deceiving yourself.

NBA why na?

You don't want druggie to recover the money he used for election bribes?

5. The Mystery of the Igue Festival: In Benin City, Edo State, an annual festival called the "Igue Festival" takes place. During the festival, the Oba (king) of Benin retreats to seclusion, and no one is allowed to see him. It is believed that if anyone sees the Oba during this period, they will die.

6. Osun-Osogbo Sacred Grove: The Osun-Osogbo Sacred Grove, located in Osun State, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It is a sacred forest dedicated to the river goddess Osun and is home to numerous shrines, sculptures, and artworks.

12. Alok Ikom Stone Monoliths: In Cross River State, there are ancient stone monoliths known as the Alok Ikom Stone Monoliths. These monoliths, dating back to the 17th century, are carved with intricate designs and are believed to have served as a form of communication for ancient communities.

15. The Nigerian Igbo Landing: The Igbo Landing is a historic site in Georgia, USA, but it is linked to Nigerian history. It is believed that a group of enslaved Igbo people from Nigeria, who were being transported to the Americas, revolted and chose to drown themselves collectively rather than live in slavery.

16. The Aso Ebi Tradition: Aso Ebi is a popular Nigerian cultural tradition where guests attending events such as weddings or funerals wear coordinated outfits. The outfits are typically made from the same fabric and colour, creating a sense of unity and solidarity among attendees.

19. Nigerian Scam Emails: Nigeria has gained notoriety for the proliferation of email scams, commonly referred to as "419 scams" or "Nigerian prince scams." While it is an unfortunate stereotype, it is important to note that these scams are perpetuated by a small number of individuals and do not represent the entirety of Nigeria.

20. The Giant Baobab Trees of Nigeria: Nigeria is home to several massive baobab trees, some of which are estimated to be over a thousand years old. These trees have become tourist attractions due to their enormous size and distinctive appearance.

21. That the man who claims to be their president cannot remember who his parents were, the primary or secondary schools he attended or even who the friends he grew up with are. His life started on the streets of Chicago.



In all, these facts provide further insight into Nigeria's cultural practices, history, and natural wonders, showcasing the country's diversity and uniqueness.
