You wait and see! Tinubu stopped corruption in Internal Revenue Service of Lagos by automating payments. He is a silent anticorruption fighter. He will prevent the corruption from source, not fighting fire everywhere.
ObiOfLagos: There are more honourable Nigerians than there are dishonourable ones no doubt. These are people who uphold the truth and do the right thing despite circumstances.
I'm talking of those who voted Peter Obi regardless of tribe, region nor religion.
Despite all the scheming and manipulations, we know the truth shall prevail as always. Peter Obi will reclaim the mandate entrusted to him.
In this vein, I therefore ask, after the Igbos of the southeast, which tribe will/should the presidency fall to?
This is a healthy issue. Please front page.

You are living in delusion. Obi koh, Obituary nii!!!
Bobloco: Eniitan, you mean the country was not set on fire when MC oluomo, Bayo Onanuga, FFK and their ilk were engaged in ethnic profiling and violence against Nigerians of a certain ethnic nationality over their democratic choices?
No. Because LP did worse rigging in the history of Nigeria in SE. This will be exposed in court. That’s why you are angry. Even if all igbos vote in Lagos, theu can never win Lagos. This accusation of preventing igbos from voting is phantom and insignificant in Lagos. The real rigging happened in the southeast.
Allow the court to decide on that. You are not a judge. When Dhatti Ahmed rigged senate election in Bornu, he was sworn in as senator for one year before he was removed by court for cheating in election. He cannot say Tinubu must not be sworn in because that’s the law. Let him go to court to prove he won the election.
You will set Nigeria on fire if you don’t allow the court to decide on your petition. Demonstrations could get violent, and that is you want. So that you can truncate democracy in Nigeria.
gidgiddy: Three days ago, the Institute For Economics And Peace, IEP retracted from the index it published, listing the indigenous People Of Biafra, IPOB, as the 10th most deadly terrorist group. In its retraction, they even said that IPOB was peaceful. But what struck me was the happiness and joy some people exhibited when IPOB was listed as 10th deadly terror group. Some were saying that now, the international community will recognise IPOB as a terror group, cut off their funding, lock them up and deport them
I wondered if these people had any brains? On the same index were two other groups from Nigeria, ISWAP and Boko haram, ranked even more deadly, but their joy was at IPOB? Dont these people realise that the more Nigeria is being showcased as an insecure country, the more there will be capital flight?
International investors, expatriates, tech innovators, tourists and many others that you will need to build your country, are all running away because Nigeria is being portrayed as a terrorist prone country, and you are jumping up for joy?
Other countries are doing everything they can to showcase themselves as peaceful secure places, open for business, in other to attract the much needed investment, but you are jumping for joy at being known for hosting various terror groups? If it were you, would you want to invest or go to a country that has been announced to have several terror groups?
When Buhari came to power in 2015, there was only one designated terrorist group in Nigeria, Boko haram. Buhari has since increased that number to at least 4 by adding IPOB, IMN and Yan Bingida to the list. To show how incompetent Buhari is, he added IPOB and IMN to the list at a time both groups were neither armed nor killed anybody. His reason for doing so was that there were some 'violent clashes' with the authorities. If one or two violent clashes is the bases for a government to declare a group as terrorists, there would be hundreds of terrorist groups being declared all over the world every week. Rather than use diplomacy and engagement, Buhari used military and the anti-terrorism law, not knowing he was showcasing Nigeria as a terrorist country while trying to attract foreign investors. How stupid? Declaring a group as terrorists is only in extreme situations, and only when other forms of engagement with the group have failed
Today, has all this declaration of various groups as terrorists helped in anyway to bring peace? Nigeria today now has far more insecurity than the day Buhari was sworn in. So what was the point of it all?
Declaring unarmed people as terrorist groups because you want to suppress their agitation, while creating long term irreparable damage to your economy by portraying your country as the 'land of terrorists' . The same Buhari has never once condemned herdsmen from his own tribe that are killing people in all 6 geopolitical zones of Nigeria
And some people are clapping and jumping up at this idiocy?
God help us
IPOB is a terrorist organisation full stop!!! IPOB kills their own people and others as well.
If you want to run for a public office make sure you do not have skeletons in your closet.
As a matter of fact. It's not about Tinubu anymore, it's more of his supporters, who's moral compass are questionable.
Whatever you support defines your character.
David Hundeyin must be on drugs. He cooks up fakw stories that cannot be substantiated and brainless Obituaries believe him because they want any ray of hope that Obi can be declared winner through hook or crook. I believe Obi has petitioned INEC, we shall see in court. The certificate issue has been taken to court several times in the past. Nothing came out of it.
DeTribalisedCit: Civil judicial forfeiture does not require a conviction. And reports have it that Tinubu refused to come reclaim the forfeited funds. His lawyers represented him instead. Has Tinubu been to the US ever since? Your guess is as good as mine. Perhaps we need to see the terms of that forfeiture 🤔
Please stop talking like an illiterate. There’s nothing like civil judicial forfeiture in a drug case. It must be criminal. This was not the case in that of Tinubu. Ignorant people should stop talking about drug peddling in Tinubu’s case because it is not.
omohayek: It says something about the laxity of the country's law enforcement that these loons not only openly agitated for such an act of treason, but they also allowed themselves to be filmed in the course of it, so confident were they that nobody would ever hold them to account. Calling for the violent overthrow of a democratically elected government is sedition, not some act of "free speech" that should be tolerated.
Where is the DSS? Where is police? Are they complicit or what?
Voice22: Panic As Nigerians Storm Defence HQs, Beg The Military To Seize Power & Stop Tinubu’s Swearing-In [Video]
Some group of Nigerians on Tuesday stormed the Defense Headquarters in Abuja, demanding the military to seize power in the country and stop the swearing-in of the President-elect, Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
A video capturing the incident shows non-supporters of the All Progressives Congress in their numbers, kneeling in front of the Defense Headquarters as they accuse Tinubu of rigging the February 25th presidential election alongside the chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, Prof Yakubu Mahmood.

Has Tinubu been to the US ever since? Your guess is as good as mine. Perhaps we need to see the terms of that forfeiture 🤔
Stop talking nonsense. If anyone is suspected of criminal act, they will demand for his extradition. Nothing is settled in civil manner where criminal drug dealing is involved.

Do you have your brain with you? Oya use it to think: have you see someone being prosecuted on civil case involving drug ever before? No civility in drug crime. Anything to do with drugs is a crime, and will be a criminal procedure. The fact that it is a civil case shows it was not drug related.
Pinkybae: Keep fooling yourselves. All of us in the United States 🇺🇸 Knew Emeka Ugwuonye That practiced in Maryland/DC area What's wrong with you guys in Nigeria 🇳🇬 Denying what we know in America 🇺🇸 To prop up your criminal oppressor and colonizer. At some point, people needs to shut up their mouth and activate their brains 🧠 There's Northern Illinois Court certified documents which is a public record. The US don't conceal any criminal record and it can't be bought to be canceled. It's not Nigeria everything is bought.
Many Nigerians were here during that case Nigerians- Chicago heroine drug ring were convicted. He forfeited his proceeds of his crime.
Hushpuppi will come back tomorrow to run for president and some of you will support him and deny he was never in prison in the US.
Some Nigerians are working hard to maintain criminal politicians killing you.
Sorry you are lying. You embelish falsehood with some truth. I need you to just answer one question: is there anywhere in American laws where someone deals in drugs and is caught, and doesn’t go to prison? If there’s none, why did Tinubu not go to prison? Have you ever seen any plea bargain on drugs that avoided prison? Just show me where that’s written in their laws.
bjdon: ASAP. The prophecy is clear. Tinubu will be declared winner, Obi will be arrested, riots will break out, Army will step in with ING. All will playout in the next few weeks.
Continue to masturbate yourself. Your pastors have offended God. Father Mbaka said so.
Continue to masturbate yourself. Tinubu is going to be sworn in on 29th May. No right thinking judge will say that you cannot be president after scoring majority votes and getting 25% even in 36 states, just because Abuja didn’t secure 25%. Are voters in Abuja more precious than Lagos or Kogi voters?
Brendaniel: Oga, we don't need to argue this thing back and forth, do you need the link to the document so that you can check who is saying the truth and who lying?
I have read it. That’s my take from it. No argument. I know the law over there and I know what I am talking.
SWATMan: You have never said one thing good about them, but we know that even your own tribe and the other that has kept Nigeria where she is today with their emptiness in governance are geniuses. If you people had transformed the country after many years of incompetent and visionless leadership we won't be in the sorry state we are now. So no one takes your comments serious because you are worse than the Igbos. Tribal bigot.
Stop talking nonsense!!! All the igbos in Jonathan government, what good did they bring to Nigeria?. Not even a second Niger bridge which they so desperately needed for their people. Deziani stole our wealth and ran away to UK claiming to have cancer. All the igbos in electricity commission, including Peter Obi collected bribes from contractors and plunged the nation into more darkness. And you are here talking nonsense.
BurialGround: The hypocrisy of these people smells to high heavens. Your brother Samuel Ogundipe is the publisher of peoples Gazette, he was the one that published the CJN picture on wheelchair claiming that he's having a secret meeting with Tinubu.
You Yoru.bas left him and are attacking igbos and Obidients over what Ogundipe published.
TUFIAKWA.
This Amadi guy will put himself in big trouble. He will have to explain to the court what he means by his question, and what was the purpose of showing the picture on social media. His defamatory suit cannot fly. He will put himself in more trouble. If I were FFK I will tell him to fork off, let’s meet in court. Nonsense!!!
If their leaders think we are rascals, then they must relocate their children away from “rascals”. They should go and develop biafra land. Leave us alone.
ajibadeolusesan: The United Kingdom has said the growth in Lagos will be retarded if non-indigenes are not seen as Lagosians, insisting that ethnic profiling should not be accepted in any part of the country.
Non-indigenes especially the Igbos complained about attacks on them by some political thugs suspected to be Yorubas during the last Governorship elections in Lagos.
The attacks were fueled by the belief of some non-indigenes who claim that Lagos is ‘no-man’s land’.
However, British Deputy High Commissioner in Nigeria, Ben Llewellyn-Jones, in an interview with Nigeria Info FM, said the strength and beauty of Lagos are in its blend of culture and religion and should be recognised as a cosmopolitan city, and condemned the ethnic profiling of a particular ethnic group before and during the just-concluded governorship and state assembly elections.
“If you live in London, you are a Londoner, a British-Pakistan is a Londoner. The British Prime Minister lives in London. My boss, the British foreign secretary is clearly British-Sierra Leonean and lives in London, they are Londoners.
“Why is it that people who pay taxes, who work, who provide teachers, who built businesses, who create jobs, who live in Lagos, who happen to be from a different ethnicity to some other people are not Lagosians?
‘’Of course, they are. The strength of Lagos is its diversity, and if Lagos can’t be that kind of cosmopolitan melting pot of culture and language and all the things it should be, then really how is Lagos going to succeed?
“People chanting anti-Igbo messages and walking on the streets by polling units on elections day are totally unacceptable. Not just in Lagos, but also in Enugu and Rivers where we had our teams as well and many other places.
You are right. But nobody comes to London and claims its np man’s land. Nobody can challenge the authority of the king or claim that he has a right to be the king when he is from Biafra. Everyone respects the natives.
