See bro take my advice, that dark road you are taking will be the ruin of you. Just watch what you say otherwise when God starts to deal with you, you will pray to die and it will not come.

You have been brainwashed.. God won't curse you for having a different opinion or pointing out flaws in what another man like you said.
That's how they deceive you people with hate speeches disguised as preaching.

Irony1:
See it is good you are working hard to earn your pay, but you see this thing of attacking a priest who has done the morally responsible thing of speaking truth to power will give you bad curses that will follow you far in life.
Don't ruin your life by going down that road.

Gatekeeper of curses.. welldone.
Your priest that went on TV to show bias and poor judgement shouldn't be corrected because of imaginary curses that'll follow you.

ibtommy:
. Don't mind them. So, Trump should enter Iran snd start fighting when he has the military to handle that? The way some people think with their anus amazes me. I just wish Obi could win the Presidential election. That is when he would see the reality, especially in the corridor of security. He beg to run back, but it'd be too late cos we wouldn't allow him.

Don't wish for bad thing abeg.. Imagine the disgrace he'll bring to Nigeria if he enters the bush to meet terrorists and they capture him, who knows what they'll demand as ransom to release "Mr. President".
That Agulu man is too dull for such position abeg.

Cardinal Onaiyekan should seek knowledge instead of going on TV to spew nonsense and disgrace the Catholic church.

The President as c-in-c of the Armed Forces is privy to some information that Onaiyekan and the other bishops don't have access to because they are strictly confidential.. even some top Military guys and Heads of Agencies don't have clearance to such classified information.
Onaiyekan should take corrections from the man in charge and cure himself of his ignorance, instead of coming out to dismiss the President's "gracious" audience granted to the Catholic bishops.

I think Onaiyekan just exposed the bias and dislike he has for the President.. because there is no other way to explain it.

That's an AI generated video.. why is this on frontpage?

I mean, this is clearly fake, the President doesn't speak that way.. yet the mods on Nairaland pushed it to frontpage.

AMINDA:
I didn't. Snake oil merchants have been carrying out massive image laundering since His Eminence, John Cardinal Onaiyekan gave his honest feedback on the state of the country, and we love to see it. When will Tinubu and his lackeys stop seeing every criticism as an attack?

Eminence na for him pocket.. nobody send am.
He is just a man, no matter how decorated by the Catholic church and he is not beyond reproach.
He's looking for a President that will be answering "yes daddy". Nonsense and ingredients.

It takes a kind of wickedness to know that something is poor, yet still trying to package that thing for people as the best.. majority of them know the Agulu fraud is nothing but disaster, yet they want to force him on unsuspecting Nigerian voters.
Nigerians must not loose guard, it seems some people are hell bent on seeing Nigeria fail.

I think it's time for Nigerians to collectively demand better welfare of workers across board.. the ones feeding fat are the politicians and those in political groups while the real workers are getting peanuts as take home. See them sharing Iphones, jeeps, luxury vehicles and all sorts while the Military and Civilian personnel are left with empty promises.

Bulk of the problem facing Nigeria today stems from the poor treatment of workers which has resulted in neglect of duty and zero job satisfaction.. If you pay workers well, governance will go smoothly. When you pay soldiers well, you can be rest assured about security... Claiming to increase workers salaries, while it doesn't reflect in their take home is just not it. If some keep quiet, others won't.

The clergyman probably thinks like the Agulu fraud he supports.. they want the President to enter the forests in Oyo, Kwara, Kogi, Bauchi, Borno etc. and be the one negotiatiating terms of release with terrorists.
Just imagine how low people can go because of partisan politics.

Amotolongbo:
Now I very much understand why former President Obasanjo likes Peter Obi so much. Obasanjo is using Peter Obi for a proxy war against Atiku’s presidential bid 😆😆.
You stop my third term bid, I stop your presidential ambition. In as much as Obi is contesting, Atiku’s votes will be badly affected

Many of you on here are evolving into smart political analysts.. really smart line of thought.

I don't know why.. but something compels me to believe Atiku's side of the story.
The Former Vice-President might have his shortcomings, but I don't think he is as bad as his former principal wants us to believe.

DomPerignon:
It's obvious that the only reason Onaiyekan held that meeting is to have cause to release his pre written statement condemning the President as being insensitive.

It was all an ambush towards having reason to go to the public to talk bad about the govt

It is also obvious that he is doing all this to get his fellow Catholics to vote their Giringori.

After all, no other executive has been so openly biased and favourable to the Catholic church and it's members than Giringori who made it a point to ensure that all his appointees were Catholics and every charity he carried out using Anambra state funds went to the Catholic church.

The President should simply decline call for courtesy visit from these partisan clergymen.. Onaiyekan had the means to spew the nonsense he did just because the President gave him access.

In the coming days, more like Onaiyekan will attempt this smear campaign, so it's better not to even give them that chance.

Dalohad:
I am writing a book to be released next year.

The title is 'Tinubu's dumbification of pro-APC youths with hunger as a tool'

Nairaland has provided me with enough case-studies..

You writing a book won't change anything.. infact it's your own cup of tea.
No amount of smear campaign from likes of Onaiyekan can poison the mind of well-meaning Nigerians.

This man is already thinking like those he is flocking with.. Obi can never be President of Nigeria.

Cardinal Onaiyekan was indeed insensitive with the comment he made on Arise TV.. clearly he has political leanings, trying to smear PBAT's name.
Nigeria is bleeding, we agree.. is the President doing something about it?. YES he is.

The right thing for Onaiyekan to do is to call on State Governors to step up their game and secure their respective domains.. He can't apportion blame only to the President in this issue of insecurity. The State Governments and Local Governments are legally recognized as part of the Executive Arm of Governance in Nigeria, they should get to work, instead of sitting idle and embezzling public funds.
Why is INEC wasting tax payers money to conduct elections into those elective offices when they know they won't be useful?

tonesky:
This man is daft honestly. What risk is he talking about? Did Yoruba's took a risk when in 1999 they voted Olu Falae against Obasanjo? Did they took risk when Yoruba voted Buhari in 2025 a Northerner against Jonathan - a fellow Southerner? Did Yoruba took risk in 2023 when they voted - Tinubu, Yoruba as against Obi - Igbo knowing fully well that it was the turn of Igbo . Since 1999, Obasanjo took the turn of South West, Jonathan took the turn of South South and natural justice, equity and fairness should have told them that it was the turn of Igbo's. Uma*I is either being selfish or suffering from inferiority complex. His advise lacks intellectual and wisdom.

You and your co-travellers are heading straight to the wilderness on full speed.. Umahi is being logical here, but sadly those he is advising have no patience for logic.

Umahi they won't listen to you. it's the exact same pattern they followed in 2023 that they will repeat in 2027.
The NW, NE, Middle Belt, SS and SW will deliver votes for PBAT's reelection

@OP Sorry to say.. seems you're not that smart
If you can't see from the name they chose for their group that it's clearly to push an agenda to make their candidate get elected either by hook or crook, then something is definitely off. They don't really send those things you wrote in your writeup.

So it's the ones that'll secretly pass bill to harvest your organs without your consent you want?

PBAT's reelection will be nothing short of progress and continuity. The man has shown commitment to security, economic prosperity, infrastructure development, youth empowerment, gender inclusion and many more.

Ttalk:
Theres is no state in Nigeria where communal clashes is as common as in Anambra. Hadly you see a neighbouring town not in one form of war with the other neighbour.

If you see Ndi Anambra don't want to leave Lagos please don't blame them, they don't want find themselves in crossfire going on back home.

Obi who couldn't solve communal clashes want to stop terrorism.

The guy is a shameless hypocrite.. the South East still practice sit at home and forceful lockdowns yet this hypocrite turned blind eye to the violation of human rights going on in his home region. The forceful sit at home affects all other tribes doing business or living in the South East, yet they go about pretending as if all is well in their backyard.

Their lies will continue to get exposed, so they won't deceive Nigerians into thinking they have magic wand to fix everything wrong in the country.

Nigerians should look at Lagos and Anambra and compare the two.. even the loser talking can't stay in the State he governed for 8years, instead he's always running to Tinubu's Lagos.

Nigerians should look at the migration pattern between the two States and select the one that's experiencing progress. No be by cho cho cho.

The major architect of hunger in Nigeria who killed local industries through importation is pointing accusing fingers at an upright man trying all he can to revive the economy.
Isn't that fascinating?

The 3 in 4 youths must be confused, maybe they think Nigeria is same as Anambra under Obi that experienced zero progress for 8 years.

However you choose to look at the South Africa situation.. you must realize that they took the decision to be conservatives and protect what belongs to them. Their scarce jobs and source of livelihood can't be under threat and you expect all of them to fold their arms and do nothing.

You really can't blame the South Africans since their leaders did nothing to curb the influx of foreigners into South Africa.

This is why we must correct the wrong in Nigeria now before it's too late.. we must restructure the country into a regional system where each region and the indigenous populations there won't feel cheated or shortchanged. Trying to silence people using laws in the obvious tense environment is a ticking time bomb waiting to explode.
Where there is injustice, there can never be peace or harmony.

The Aworis, where una dey?..
A seat meant to better lives of Awori and by extension Yoruba youths in Oshodi is what they want to take.

Anything Federal including Federal House of Reps is for the Indigenes, not visitors.

Yoruba leaders and elders are not alive to their responsibilities.. our people don't get scholarships, we are not violent, hardly do Yoruba people get employment or political positions outside Yorubaland yet non-Yorubas still have the audacity to be dragging the electoral positions in South West with indigenes, yet so called Yoruba leaders are doing nothing to call this out

The useless afenifere that ought tobe the voice of Yoruba people have been taken over by saboteurs and enemies of Yorubaland.

The agenda to conquer Yorubaland and usurp the traditional stools in South West is real. May God give our people wisdom so our next generations don't turn slaves to outsiders in their own ancestral lands.

One thing is sure.. this Adeleke man is not coming back.
From appointing a biafra agitator to office meant for Osun indigenes to the poor road projects and poor performance, he should not even bother to contest in 2027.

Patriotism is something you can never get from "eniemies of the State".. those who took to terrorism, raised arms against the State will never be loyal or turn Patriots overnight no matter the "pardon" or "rehabilitation" given to them.

It takes a special kind of passionate patriotism to join the Military or any of the Armed Forces knowing fully well that it's a matter of life and death.. Now recruiting the enemies into the highest organization meant for patriots under guise of repentant terrorists is not only disheartening but also nauseating.

The Russians will never compromise on security to the point of granting pardon to terrorists. The only pardon they give terrorist is quick death.

If FG spends 10 trillion on Lagos alone, it's very much worth it considering the revenue the State is generating for Nigeria.

What happened to ndi move seaports, move headquarters of multinationals away from Lagos.. una mum.u eyes don clear say Lagos is Lagos. If you like pack your belongings and relocate, Lagos will still be Lagos.

A big red flag..
We don't need an ignoramus with victim mentality as President.. we need a firm and courageous leader that's equal to the task.

Nigeria with 350+ ethnic groups and diverse characters is not a joke that a clown can experiment with.
