They lever learn!!

Okwute visiting Gumi today won’t still teach them anything.

One of my Obidient friend, who was always condemning Gumi and also Buhari for not locking him up, I sent him the PO tweet, he has been mute

Anyways I don't think PO meeting him is bad, PO has to cross some bridges, it's not only obidients that will help him win election
The earlier obidients realize that it's a game of numbers and allow PO move to secure those numbers, the better for them.

donstan18:
Na laugh laught I just dey laugh since today.


Omo! Na senseless people dey make enemies, insult people and fight unnecessarily over these politicians. Did you see Atiku and Tinubu linkup today?

I just posted a Twitter link to the video here
PO is still calling Atiku his respected elder brother
But supporters want to kill themselves

donstan18:
It’s better he gets trolled for hiding than the embarrassing clips I’ve watched today.

Baba just dey misyarn, dey talk rubbish, no single sensible point. Shettima should take control for interviews and National Tv parole abeg. He’s very good with it.

E get one wey him say “Poisoned by holy communion”. Omo!!!

Lmaoooo, e say e Wan teach una idioms

That poisoned holy communion talk dey valid grammatically, but na the link to climate change I never get

See politicians wey some people Wan kill themselves for, them dey shine teeth with each other
Better use your head.

Tinubu met Atiku in kaduna. Politics is not war, just a matter of interest. 🇳🇬 pic.twitter.com/Kta2gcYkC0

They say Dem go close nose vote for am o

Very normal, everybody get supporters wey dey support unconditionally, but na who get supporters pass na him dey win election.

donstan18:
APC should stop allowing Tinubu speak on anything interview or National TV.

He’s a huge embarrassment abeg!!

No no no, he must continue, let people see and hear what they are voting for.

OasisX:


Ooin... you're doing well, coz that'll definitely address Climate Change. He ain't just gonna kill 2 bird with a Stone, he's gonna kill a Kangaroo in Australia too, coz Climate Change is affecting the whole world not just Nigeria.

Guess what? Rest Countries that are battling flood as well have Cameroon Dam to blame... LMFAO

We were already having flooding issues but the release of water from the Lagbo dam complicated the issue and made it worse, stop looking at it from an absolute point of view, the releasing of water from the Cameroon dam had it's effect, but was not the sole cause of the flood.

Politics no go kill person
I dey enjoy the hypocrisy from all camps so far.

Laugh Wan kill me
Cruise too much for this thread

ribbit:
naaaaa

Tinubu has always talked like that.

It's painful to listen to.
Omo, e go take Tinubu 30 minutes to give speech wey normal person go give in 15 or 20 minutes.

ribbit:
if you can't understand anything there, then the problem is you not tinubu.


If obi is half as coherent as tinubu in that video, I wouldn't mind his horrible voice.

I did not say I don't understand what he was saying, I said his speech is painful to listen to, a lot of slurs, something I thought was due to old age.

[quote author=ribbit post=117620050]Tinubu is ahead of his time

This is ⁦@officialABAT⁩ some years ago answering directly some of the devious allegations against him which are made without a shred of evidence. Awesome responses. He clearly says here that he deliberately kept quiet on some of the issues so as not to ‘wrestle with pigs’. pic.twitter.com/pzUhGPuzS5

honestly thought that it was now that Tinubu was very painful to listen to, but it seems na old stuff.
Omo, the 2 minutes stressed my ears

larride:
Theres a reason why theres " in that thread

Sometimes you guys seek to read but not to understand.

She was asked how she would respond if she was PO's spokesperson.

larride:
But can not harvest corn the day the seed is planted?

You're welcome

[quote author=BlueRayDick post=117598208]In that same event yesterday o, he still said "You cannot harvest corn the day its maize is planted"?

I saw that video too and I’m just like : Wetin be this ?

“You cannot harvest corn the day its maize is planted."

, I laughed hard when I heard it yesterday.
My brain was like "wait, what"

BlueRayDick:
I already saw it coming . I knew they would try and explain it away , no be today dem don dey do am.

Lol, speech renovations. They get to work after the speech has been given

Drama

Omo, since I got lost in the sea of vawulence
Aisha won this round sha

I saw some of her old tweets and I remember one of my friend, since 2019 we always argued about the fact that I say pdp and Apc is the same, and he never agreed until this year

OasisX:


Mi o ni so nkankan.

Omo, this vawulence is hot sha

Modified: I hope he brought more than 2015 Buhari support to nail her Sha, cause if we Wan use who you support 2015, not many people will survive being tagged "buharist"

Donjazet2:
One key reason for this is because our democracy just hasn't matured, because if it has, this is where the state house legislators come in. People always forget that the state legislature are the ones who responsible for approving state budgets.

A functional state assembly wouldn't let every brand new executive just come in and abandon ongoing projects or allow "white elephant" projects.

But every single state assembly in Nigeria are just rubber stamp houses with all members being stooges of the state governors.
I believe that with time sha, this would change.

But this should never be the basis for appraising godfatherism. Godfatherism is inimical to democracy.

Godfatherism leads to state capture and also situations whereby states are run like mafia organizations. We've seen this with Lagos, delta, Enugu, abia and the rest where godfatherism has been bad for the states.

The bold hardly exists.
Most governors first wrestle control of their state house of assembly. On the flip side, if there is infighting between state government and state house of assembly, the state may stagnate and in such political war, the people are given the last consideration.

I don't support godfatherism in any way or form, cause we vote leaders to lead us, not for their godfathers to lead through them. It happens though, in fact, the reason it is not more prevalent is because many people tried to establish themselves as godfathers and failed.

Donjazet2:
This is what I don't understand with you guys.
It seems to me that because Tinubu and Atiku are zero in your books, then Obi must be 10 over 10.

Or else you've not being paying attention to this man, the numerous interviews he grants, the numerous events he attends and speeches granted almost every single day, you can't say he hasn't laid out his plans.

Somehow, you all have now set the very highest of standards for him. You are now looking for a God like candidate to rule nigeria. I'm sure even if God came down now, you will still somehow find room for inadequacies.

Why should scrutiny of your candidate bother you?
If Atiku and Tinubu are zero in my books, does that obligate me to be licking PO's boots? No.
IMO, PO and Obidients are the ones setting high standards for PO, and it's not bad, except you want people to automatically follow PO blindly because the other two candidates are bad.
It's an election, people have different drive, your black and white utopia doesn't exist here.
"you say you are voting PO, but you must market him, don't criticize him, or at least criticize other candidates more" bla bla, sorry I don't fit into your expectations, that's all I can tell you.

What you don't know is that, in politics, a mindset like this only ends up demarkerting the candidate, that is if you're still saying you're voting for this man and hoping he wins. Sowing seeds of doubt into the minds of those who don't vote, people we're trying to make get engaged in the process.

Lmaoooo, since when did I subscribe to being an activist? I don't even consider myself obidient
So why should I be bothered about that??
I comment on issues I like, if you are expecting me to contribute to your obidient activism one way or another, sorry.
By the way, you are doing a good job at your activism, more grease to your elbows.

As for your question on security. This is a snippet of his objectives towards securing Nigeria.

I am OK with this.

Remember, Tinubu a d Atiku keep hiding from the media. Any time they talk, na so so blunder we dey hear.

True, that is exactly why I say the other options are worse.

not for our stupid political outlook, his statement should have been rubbish.
But once most politicians enter power, they don't think of continuity at all, they abandon previous project embarked on by their predecessor and start their own.
Our political class need to imbibe the idea of continuity without one man trying to force it by appointing successors and even controlling them. That practice is undemocratic.

Cutting costs of governance in the mud

https://www.nairaland.com/7384053/amosun-salaries-senators-reps-not

To be honest, PO hasn't given comprehensive solutions or rather comprehensive plans to a lot of our problems, just a lot of "empty" campaign talks.
However, when you look at the other candidates on the ballot, you won't blame those who take him as some sort of savior despite this fact.
I hope PO is working on his manifesto, hopefully he will be proposing comprehensive plans to solving our problems in them.
Last last, there is no coming to do magic, our problems won't go away by wish, so we just have to vote the best of our options in good conscience.

iamoyindamola:
These obidense are really dull sha
When we criticize every one we are there friends but when they ask obi questions we suddenly become enemy like izzou that is from Hausa

https://www.nairaland.com/7384415/obidients-attack-aisha-yesufu-rinu


Simple question how will obi solve police brutality they went gun blazing, bunch of fools

Lmaoooo, that's why I said that there are mad people in every camp.
The attack was unnecessary, just simply point to where Obi gave an answer to the questions or wait till he gives one.

nani667:
°°°

This nonsense series, I hope they are more coherent this season.

Donjazet2:
What do you say to this?

I say that there are mad people in every camp, if you want to be among those in your camp, good luck to you.

Donjazet2:
Would you classify the people who said this as reasonable yorubas??

I keep saying this, I know that the Yorubas are naturally the most peace loving and accommodating people. I have lived in Lagos for a long duration of my life, I served in Lagos, I have Yoruba relatives. I have family members on both sides who married yoruba spouses. My favorite dish is a yoruba meal, spinach stew.

But in every 12 there must be a Judas. On one hand you have Obasanjo a yoruba man going all out to make sure Obi wins next year, you also have the afeniferi group, a predominant Yoruba sociocultural group, endorsing and marketing obi, but for these people you also have xenophobic monkeys who stay millions of miles away while fostering hatred and division across the internet.

So I ask again, are these people who uttered these, "reasonable yorubas"?

If that's your justification for your repeated ethnic profiling on this board, carry on

liveLongNprospa:
In reply to people who insult Yorubas that support Obi by calling them Omo Ale .

Lmaoooo, let me go and change my pampers

patrickmuf:
The same gloriousgbola you were insulting in the previous page?

Extending the false olive branch.
I wonder why he doesn't see that he is tribalizing the discussion with the "reasonable yorubas" talk.

reccy:
Surprisingly, people are talking about Obi here. I'm in a park trying to reach ilorin for exams but the guys here no wan hear Atiku.

One said if Obi did not win, he prefers Tinubu, you see that Atiku, if he mistakenly enters, nah for inside your room Fulani men will wake you to send you to your lord.

Good for Obi for the momentum but with the look of things, they seem to prefer Tinubu...

Honestly, this is my second time hearing a political discussion involving Obi......

It all depends on your location.

obainojazz:
If Obi take pictures with Nnamdi Kanu, rest of Nigeria seems him as supporting the movement
Even dictators are nice during elections

If MNK starts supporting Obi, rivals will start fanning the regional candidate/ipob angle. And Obi can't afford to have MNK tampering with his SE voting bloc.
I think MNK is a dangerous variable to PO at this point, if I knew better, I would say it's planned
