All facts should be properly verified to avoid political manipulations

Now that your family are involved, you are calling for proper verification. If they tagged hem as Fulani kidnappers, would you have said the same? What a shame!

[quote author=dominique post=139575180]Everything is now politics, lives and welfare of the common man no longer matter

Ok

Afriifa:
This Kwankwanso political grip of Kano state cannot be overemphasised. The guy has supporters like is a fraternity. I wonder how he do it. In a free and fair election, it will be difficult to defeat his candidates.

The same man lost his re-election. How did he lose?

anonimi:
How many teachers have been employed by this progressive governor for the free education of all the children of the market people?

Has he employed up to the 19,500 that Makinde did

Why are you comparing him with Makinde? Why is it difficult for you to compare him with your agulu failure when he governed Anambra. How many teachers did he employ as governor since he turned Anambra to mini Dubai?

helinues:
Why do you think Wike friom South South is dragging Pdp with the North? It's because of 2031 VP position. SS started their own game plan early

As for the South West, it's people that will need us as we are off both President and VP after 2027 winning possibility

Yes Wike may have a legitimate right to be VP in 2031 but realistically, Adam Oshiomole will be a better VP from SS in my opinion. But if you ask me, we need to give it to SE not because of the lousy shout from gbajue group but because it the right and fair thing to do

helinues:
For some people to even be having confident that Peter Obi can win the 2027 election, it really shows how noobs some of his supporters are.

How much do they think it will cost to win a presidential election in Nigeria, take rigging and bribing out. What's the meaning of I no dey give shishi or frugality in Politics, where is that done on this crust?

774 local governments, 36 states. The campaign, how would you be able to tour the country with public airline? Where is the time to be going through the process ? You need nothing less than 2 private jets on standby and like 5 choppers. The choppers are for movement within states

Can you even win any Africa presidential election without having foreign support or back up? Who are Obi's allies outside Nigeria?

Senegal and Gambia are on standby to fund the reelection of president Tinubu, Faye's party is using broom now.

We have closed the chapter of the 2027 election as it's concluded before conducted. Even with the opposition uniting in one party, they don't stand a chance not to talk of when they are in pieces

We should rather be discussing about the 2031 election possibility, North Central/South South ticket

While I sincerely agree with most of your assertions here, I think I will like to see Soludo or Umahi as VP in 2031 and then South south can come later. But to be fair, Yorubas should stay clear of the Presidency from 2031 at least for the next 20 to 30 years

I can assure you that any candidate supported by Igbos will never be governor of any state in Yoruba land. The 2023 elections have opened the TRUE Yoruba sons and daughters eyes. Not until Yorubas are allowed to influence election result in Igbo land. No matter the population the suspicions are not going away soon, not in this generation

Dalohad:
Why do her fellow Yorubas call for her head because she talked down on Nigeria?

Ans: It is the pro-Tinubu Nigerians who expect her be all lovey-dovey with Tinubu and pro-Nigeria, because a Yorubaman is in power.. However, she has refused to be a hypocrite..

If Kemi was anti-Nigeria when GEJ or Abacha were in power and Yorubas like Tinubu and co. were pretending to be activists and politicians, they would have hailed Kemi to high heavens.

We know how they think..

And many like you would have demonised her as tribal Yoruba lady against Jonathan then

This is why those ungrateful tenants should never be allowed to continue to represent any party of our city in Lagos or South West. One atohunrinwa, could be audacious to send his own people en mass to SA using Lagos money while doing nothing for the indigenes of Lagos. Oshodi Isholo should make sure such man never win again in Lagos. Enough is enough

I am so happy that they are divided like 2023. It will make the re-election of BAT so easy now that he has almost all the governors with him

There is no way Atiku will win Osun and other states he won in the South in 2023. Adeleke, Akwa Ibom and Bayelsa no longer with him. It will be a disaster of outing. Only Delta is Obi may win in the Siuth South. Obi will not get more than 5 millions this time. Please bookmark this page to remember

I can tell you for a fact that this guy will cry of being rigged out on the election day. He will be treated the same way Fayemi and his party were treated by Jonathan to bring in Fayose. He will sob profusely on the television by noon of the election day

Naijahero1:
Nigerians votes Obi; INEC announces Tinubu. Obi wins judiciary manipulates the processes for TInubu. How do you want Nigeria to grow? What happens if Nigerians chooses not to go to court? Don't set Nigeria on fire. Let our votes count. Come 2027, Nigerians will defend their votes legally on the streets, no one will go to the corrupt court.

You can choose to burn your Region or stay at home not just on Monday but 7 days a week. Your gbajue will never be president

Win12345:
You are a bigger clown, Tinubu and his cohorts that are busy destroying opposition parties expect Obi to be trapped in the plots.

You can continue to deceive your ignorant people. And who was busy destroying APGA when he took flight despite causing himself and his family? A man who cannot keep his word even when a curse is attached can only be taken serious by his tribal kinsmen and those with brains but refuse to use it

Eriokanmi:
Liar. Come to lagos and see how popular obi is amongst many tribes. Im not in any way close to ibo but im supporting obi. Una don start tribal war again. Alimosho a yoruba densely populated LGA in Nigeria gave obi the winning votes in Lagos. That's same LGA where you'd find the largest population of yoruba Muslims and Christians in Nigeria and the LGA with the largest population in Nigeria. Ibos are less than 5% of our population here.

Where were you when they rescued obj with their votes in 1999 when we abandoned him and voted falae instead. I was naive then so I fell for their tricks but now, im wiser.

Continue to deceive yourself. The true and genuine Yorubas know themselves from atohunrin wa. We shall meet again in 2027 and see how your Obi will win again Lagos even he is not a candidate

Hahaha wonder shall never end

Edoreborn:
The babalawo wey do that juju for tulumbu really try ooo... Person wey bring hardship upon his people n yet some still dey say it must him...

You are right. That is why it beggars belief that someone increased the poverty of his state from 25% to 53% according to his state governor and yet many are so dumb to see him as their messiah. Who did us like these Nigerians?

socialmediaman:
More handovers loading

Handing over to who? From which party to which party? A man that will deputise Atiku las las

Seunpapa65:
E go do you like film Nigerians love suffering just hold like 2k with 5 cups of rice for ballot station then come and see magic 🤣🤣🤣

If not that Nigerian love suffering, what will make some people to see someone that increased the poverty of his state with investing in beer industry as main achievement as hero. Is that not a shame?

Is America borrowing because of subsidies? Hahahaha

Unfortunately time is not on Trump side. He is trying to rush everything before midterm election. If his party loses both Senate and HoR, then he should kiss his presidency goodbye. Iran knows this and they will work towards it. His approval rating is now below 40%

Florida is currently experiencing a notable exodus of middle-class and working-age residents. While the state's population continues to grow overall due to international migration and retirees, net domestic migration from other U.S. states plummeted by roughly 93% from its pandemic peak to just 22,517 residents in 2025.

Key Drivers of the Middle-Class Exodus[/size][size=8pt]

Soaring Housing Cost[/b]s: The average home price has surged to $375,000, up from $253,000 before the pandemic. In major hubs like Miami, median listing prices reached over $629,000, which is pricing out many middle-income earners.

[b]Insurance Crisis: [/b]Florida remains the most expensive home insurance market in the country. The average annual premium is projected to reach approximately $8,500 by late 2026, nearly triple the national average.

[b]Affordability vs. Wages: [/b]While costs have risen sharply, wages have not kept pace. In 2025, 13 of the 20 most common occupations in Florida paid an average of less than $20 an hour.

[b]Family Expenses: The cost of raising a child in Florida increased by 10% in the last year, now estimated at over $280,000 over 18 years.

Impact on Demographics

Nearly one-quarter of those leaving Florida are young adults aged 20–29. Many are relocating to states like Georgia, North Carolina, and Tennessee, where housing is more affordable and living costs are lower. This "hollowing out" of the working-age population is a significant concern for the state's business community, as there are currently more jobs than workers to fill them.

Public Sentiment

Recent surveys highlight widespread "affordability anxiety":

90% of Floridians are concerned about inflation.
80% are worried about housing prices.
50% have actively considered moving out of the state due to the cost of living.

ceejay80s:
I don't have brain because none of Ur immediate family have been kidnapped abi?
I pity u

And how many of your family were dumped into Akwuzu river when your agulu failure was governor?

happney65:
Egbe k'ẹgbẹ

Ẹgbẹ asetani.

Egbe asetani ni egbe baba re. Hahaha

Yakhi84:
Oga Dino Tinto don come again.
However, I would rather vote a Dino Tinto than the contraption we currently have in Aso Rock.

Says an Igbo man. Hahahahahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

ariesbull:
May your life be the way TINUBU is running Nigeria on general to your 4th generation

May proverty increase atronomically in your life the same way Obi increased poverty in Anambra as Soludo alluded to

Picardor2:
Even a mad man will not vote Tinubu

But Tinubu does not have a mad man as his adviser? Only the fake candidate who get their advice from mad man expects mad men votes

Can someone explain why is it that Drug trafficking by Nigerians are mostly done by the people who call themselves Christians? Are these people not fake Jews of God because the true God that I know, will never support anyone or allow such traffickers to enter HIs Kingdom. Are these people truly Christians? What an irony?

Why is it difficult for Atiku and his supporters to answer the questions. Those entities he privatised, how are they performing? Is electricity, Ajaokuta and others that Atiku privatised, what are the results? If Atiku privatises NNPC, will it not go the same way of others? You can only deceive those who reason with their anvs. Hahaha
