The only opposition to the ruling party in 2027 is Atiku.. unfortunately, his inability to guard his utterances has greatly reduced his popularity.
I don't think any right thinking person in Nigeria today will want to vote for reversal to era of petroleum subsidy.

The other clown will fade into oblivion no doubt.. a tribal candidate has no place in national politics.

Securing rail license without security is wasted effort.. SWDC should seek for license for private security outfits to operate in the South West region so our people and infrastructure can be safe.

Since some parts of the country have decided that they will never progress, that it's terrorism they want to be sponsoring with Nigerian tax payers money.. the SWDC must be proactive to ensure the story in the West will always be progress and development.

There is nothing wrong with President Tinubu spending Sallah in Lagos.. just like most Christians go home to celebrate Christmas with family and loved ones is the same way Muslims celebrate Sallah with their family and loved ones.

The utterances from this desperate Agulu fraud shows he will turn out far worse than GEJ if elected President.. someone that is willing to turn to stooge/ errand boy for the Northern ruling class is not fit to be President of this great nation called Nigeria.

From someone with deep rooted knowledge of Nigerian history.. this desperado just want to take us back to the First Republic style of Igbo + Fulani government. Any sensible person would have deciphered long ago.

Yorubas wake up.. support an inclusive government, not those with evil agenda towards the West.

Life is not fair to men.. you just have to struggle and hustle "legitimately" to become somebody.

@OP A piece of advice for you..never be afraid to leave your comfort zone/ relocate. Try to upgrade your wardrobe, attend events and network with people, you don't know where help might come from.
If you have the means, learn new skills and keep improving yourself.

If you seat in a corner and say it's cry you want to be using your time for, O boy, e don be for you.

A girl of 24-25 years isn't your mate.. forget that you both are age mates. She is like 10 years ahead already.
@OP If you know what is best for you, face your studies, get good grades and make a better life for yourself. Real life no be joke o.

Wow.. can't believe I read the whole story. This is really touching and painful at the same time.

I watched a clip once where a man made bold the claim that most women only act nice to guys because they want marriage, that the moment the guy falls into their trap, he'll see their true nature. They will disrespect, disregard, insult and frustrate his life till the guy will start questioning how and why he fell into the lady's trap.

If not for procreation (having kids), most guys today won't have any business with women, because relationships drain guys emotionally and financially. Just imagine the ingrate the OP laboured to take care of for 2 years insulting him for leaving home to clear his head.
Any woman that is not educated and has no job is a big red flag, they are just leeches looking for the next guy to jump on and drain.
Forget se.x.. any woman can fvck you but not every woman can build with you.

Benue people are not fools.. they know Obi has no good intention towards them. A man that made a statement publicly that he would negotiate with terrorists, even has a blacklisted person as running mate deserves no chance to campaign in any serious State.
PBAT remains the best candidate to lead Nigeria and put a stop to the insecurity ravaging the land.

I'm not happy with the way this administration is treating terrorism with levity.. I'm starting to feel that this is a major problem with Yorubas.

For once, I give it to the the Igbo community for making this bold demand, Yorubas should wake up and stop being timid.
I recall that Bokoharam had its roots from Bauchi, so there is every possibility that the allegations against that Senator is true. The international community should not sit down and watch Nigeria die with this kind of lackadaisical attitude of our leaders towards national security.
In a serious country, a lot of suspects would have been arrested and serious investigations carried out to fish out the perpetrators of terrorism in Nigeria... Just imagine, we have Yoruba Senators and House of Reps members who will still sit with the alleged terrorism sponsor in the National Assembly to be doing what exactly?.

I'm getting fed up with this country.. at this point, I can't blame anyone leaving to saner climes where security is considered as top priority. Yet someone will expect us to go and queue under the sun to cast vote with this manner on insincerity in governance.

There is no group with such name in Yorubaland.. these ones are imposters and Obi supporters trying to cause division among Yorubas.
We'll support our own to complete his 8 years in office whether any nincompoop likes it or not.

A girl can be bad either by choice or by circumstance, same way, a girl can be good either by choice or by circumstance. The chances are the same.

The girl you see as "bad" might possess some attributes the so called "good guy" wants in a lady while the girl you perceive as "good" might possess many flaws that will instantly put a man off.. sometimes, it's not all about sex, ability to think critically and manner of approach to simple things can turn the table around completely.

Lastly, a bad girl can decide to change her ways and turn a new leaf.. while the "good girl" in your own view can be lowkey wayward or turn free giver.
Bottom line is.. nothing is certain when it comes to human beings. People change like weather depending on the prevailing circumstances.

Prof. Otubanjo has said it all.. the only credible candidate among all those running for Office of the President in 2027 is PBAT.

Atiku is just an entitled individual who feels Presidency should be his birthright because he is a Northerner.. I'm even surprised he is the one at the forefront demanding for PBAT's record in the U.S to be released.. this is someone that can't visit the U.S because of his criminal records and cases of money laundering.
The other fellow is just too shallow with no understanding of how a real economy works.. all the "I have done it in Anambra" noise na wash. A tribal candidate with no track record of good governance.

When we raised the alarm back then about influx of foreigners into Nigeria who have no business being in Nigeria.. most of you felt we were just overreacting.

In a country where over 60 million youths (mostly graduates) are unemployed.. your immingration and Interior Ministry keeps allowing foreigners into the country under pretence that Nigerian engineers snd professionals can't execute certain jobs. Now the foreigners have started opening businesses and small shops while Nigerians roam the streets with no job, no means of survival.

Very soon, Chinese, Lebanese etc. will be the ones selling lands and giving permits to Nigerians for land use in Nigeria. I have never seen a people so careless as Nigerians, honestly.

Your wicked Notthern brothers like Dangote, Rabiu et al. are the ones making life hard for innocent Nigerians.. enough of the political talk, let's face the truth.

You can't sell cement for 15k in Nigeria and not expect the worker's wage and prices of other building materials to go up.. all that combined means the middle class won't be able to build houses or factories for small, medium or large businesses again. This translates to lack of jobs for youths, increased poverty level, very high house rents and high rate of crime and other social vices in Nigeria.

Atiku should call Dangote to order and stop the nonsense talks, we are not almajiris who can't think.. Dangote is destroying the economy of Nigeria faster that anything else and something has to be done to stop him.

Atiku should leave the stage abeg.. we don't need people without basic knowledge of how economy works at the helm of affairs in this country. That's like disaster waiting to happen.
It's obvious that all he wants is to come back and sell off government properties to Northerners like they did with the cement industry previously owned by FG that was sold to Dangote.. Look at how Nigerians are suffering in the hands of the wicked monopolist today who knows nothing about business except predatory pricing.

This country is seriously sinking with comments as this coming from the Defence Minister.. can the US or Russia Defence Chiefs come out in public to say this? Obviously not.

We are not sincere with ourselves in this country and that's is the reason a lot of people are going into crime, adulterating foods and drinks that are reducing life span in Nigeria. You can see that there is no patriotism atal, not even among the Armed Forces.
It's sad.

Professor isonu.. after collecting brown envelope, there is nothing they can't say to tarnish a great man's image.

On the country, most of those on PBAT's team are intellectuals and high-flyers in their respective fields. Is it the young Professor recently appointed to head JAMB or the Minister of Digital economy or the Minister of Health that has good international standing?. Listen to these hateful ones at your own peril.

@OP That's the problem of a typical black man especially politicians.. some even embezzle public funds and come out openly to brag about their ill-gotten wealth.

Africa needs help.. serious help for that matter.

As it stands now, the FCCPC is the only hope Nigeria has to save her economy from vultures parading themselves as local manufacturers in Nigeria.
Imagine cement that sells cheap in other West African countries being sold at #15,000 in Nigeria that has deposits of limestone and other cement raw materials in abundance.

This country will soon collapse with the "I don't care' attitude of our people.. then maybe we can all split and go our separate ways.
Very soon #100 won't be able to get you anything in the market just like #50.. yet Nigerians are quiet as wicked monopolists like Dangote continue to wreck our economy using predatory pricing tactics. What is the minimum wage in Nigeria today, yet prices keep going up for no justifiable reason.
If it's to m0b people for stealing #10 in the markets now, you'll see everybody boiling, but here we have people worse than thieves stealing from millions of Nigerians to enrich themselves and their families alone at expense of the masses yet no action is being taken, simply because they are Northerners.

yommen:
They cut grass na!

They should go and cut grass in their enclave..

Nobody can rewrite our history or take over our ancestral lands.

ednut1:
Are igbos obsessed with Yorubas? Because wetin be this

They obviously are.. they always want to claim credit for things Yorubas built. Unfortunately for them, the modern age rewards talent and hardwork.

See how one was trying to downplay Fela who pioneered afrobeat , just because they want to rewrite history.

See the way Lagos is rapidly developing today, with rails and infrastructure, tomorrow one of them will open mouth to say they built Lagos from scratch.
PBAT should do and bring back regionalism, we are tired of unhealthy rivalry and loudmouths invading our space.

Anybody still supporting that Agulu fraud is a confirmed enemy of Nigeria.
A man that likes cutting corners, likes telling bare faced lies and has no empathy for human lives can't be President of this great nation.

@OP You should have asked that your cousin to give you money so you can opt for plate of fufu in a restaurant.
You buying fufu to eat the catfish is not proper.. in the midst of guests for that matter (ladies that can gossip for Africa).

Your cousin has every right to be upset because what you did didn't make sense atal.

Yorubas started Nollywood, we had stage plays, theatre etc. before your tribe became civilized.
South West leads in everything and still leads till date.

Ungrateful bunch.. had it been we were as clannish as your folks, will any of you make name in Lagos talk more of getting any global recognition?.

Duru should rest.. your so called entrepreneurs were busy running piracy syndicate, making it hard for hard working Yoruba actors and movie producers to earn profit.
Now the game has changed, the digital age has shown clearly those with the talent, breaking records and raking in billions, likes of Funke Akindele, Kunle Afolayan etc.

She should socialize na.. you can't sit on high horse and be blaming guys for keeping distance.

Cattle rearing business is a private business, not government's business.. the Fulani herders should acquire lands like other Nigerians do for the purpose of ranching.

No State should surrender land for cattle ranching because of one herder-farmer clashes.. if not for prejudice and injustice, any herder caught attacking farms ought to be prosecuted and jailed, not demanding that States surrender lands for them to ranch.

Walahi if na person like me be President, people go too see shege.. I so hate injustice.

WizardOfNG:
Indeed. This is a guy who deliberately played politics of tribalism, whipping up ethnic hatred sentiment, presenting Ngige as "Yoruba candidate" when he ran under Tinubu's ACN Party to become a Senator in Anambra.

Obi and co went as far as printing and spreading posters of Ngige with Awolowo to deliberately prejudice the electorate while they created poster of the APGA candidate with Ojukwu.

Lack of political sophistication is the problem of Nigerians otherwise it will be obvious Obi is not even 1% fit to be President of Nigeria.

Attimes I wonder why he wasn't invited to face ICC at the Hague for his "religious war" outburst. Such a divisive fellow has no business being in politics talk more of a delicate position as President of a diverse multi-ethnic nation like Nigeria.

Happy Nigerians are not animals, happiness is a state of the mind and whoever chooses to be happy and keep positive mindset has every right to do so.

Sanwo Eko.. one of the best Governors to ever preside over the affairs of Lagos State.

I remember predicting landslide victory for him in the last Governorship election when he won with wide margin. Kudos to the people's Governor.

Next for him is Federal Service.. Nigeria needs capable hands to move the country forward.

@OP Islamic extremism and banditry go hand in hand.. so technically Gumi is actively involved in and responsible for the banditry and terrorism going on in Nigeria.

A Government that's serious about rooting out terrorism wouldn't spare Gumi or other extremist clerics like him.
General Lucky Irabor said it that people like Gumi shouldn't be walking around freely in the country.. do you know more than him or have you served in the capacity that he did before retirement?

helinues:
I was initially thinking Peter Obi has a dementia but considering how horrible his supporters who are still young , lots are wrong with their thinking faculty

Imagine one of his supporters below

It's their nature.. most Yorubas who haven't shared space or worked with them are the ones falling for their fake love and one Nigeria bullcrap. I prefer to roll with a muslim Northerner beacuse they can be objective and fair on their good days.

I don't see anybody from that side becoming President ever.. they just don't have what it takes.
