yarimo:
rip english

RIP understanding

For scamming Allah, he has sworn to lose the 2023 presidential election.

Allah has made him swear that he would lose the election. How would he scam Allah in Nigeria and would be dancing BUGA in UK?

APC lying machines said that Obi is not known in the core North. We will never show mercy to the urchins, we will keep on pressing their necks until we take back our country from the crooks and criminals ruling us.

What manner of man is Obi that everyone loves him! There is no part of the country that has not endorsed him. Go and verify.

lhordspy:
Just want you to remember, you both with some other heroes fought for democracy together.

Where was Atiku?
Where was Peter Obi?

In the whole article, did you see where Obi was mentioned? Why can't you market your "comedy of gaffe" and leave Obi for sensible and sane Nigerians?

A man without structure giving you people sleepless night!

Jackie And Oppong Weah
One of Ghana’s most renowned actors, Jackie Appiah, has received wild rumors that she will wed Liberia’s president, George Weah, on December 10. Weah is a football hero.

Weah and Jackie have been the subject of persistent rumors that they are having a relationship, despite the lack of any conclusive proof to support this.

Although the adage “there’s no fire without smoke” holds a lot of truth, this internet portal cannot attest for the veracity of this latest wave of rumors, which were spread via Twitter.


Minister Rennie Rubbishes Social Media Report On President Weah’s Bid For Another Wife. She Looks More Beautiful And Younger Than Bara – Jackie Appiah’s Beautiful Mother Stirs Reaction At Daughter’s

Online blogs have previously reported this, claiming that the actress, whose renown reached beyond the borders of Africa, has consented to become the president of Liberia’s second wife as of December 10.
Clar Marie Duncan Weah is the spouse of George Manneh Weah, the 25th President of the Republic of Liberia who was elected in 2017. She is a businesswoman, philanthropist, and activist from Jamaica who serves as the First Lady of the Republic of Liberia at the moment.

Similar to this, blogger Aba The Great stated in one of her speculative posts she posted on Instagram in September 2022 that Jackie was expecting George Weah.

The actress’s attention was drawn to the publication, and she quickly reacted to it by saying;

She asked all to treat such gossips as unnecessary and useless. “Please ignore all rumors, it is not true, I don’t entertain unnecessary rumours, do I look like a pregnant woman here? Please ignore the rumours…I love you all…ignore all rumours.” – Myinfo.com.gh

POLITICSPresidency: What I told Tinubu’s wife after she asked me to campaign for her husband Published on August 26, 2022By Seun Opejobi


A former Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, presidential aspirant, Dele Momodu, has disclosed that Lagos Central Senator, Remi Tinubu urged him to campaign for the All Progressives Congress, APC, presidential candidate, Bola Tinubu.

Momodu said Tinubu’s wife made the appeal during an event in Lagos State.

The veteran journalist said Mrs Tinubu recalled his past relationship with the APC presidential candidate.

In an Instagram post on Friday, the veteran Publisher said he wouldn’t support Tinubu’s ambition, though he loves the APC presidential candidate.

Momodu explained that the “APC has done too much damage to Nigeria.”

He wrote, “Only two people, apart from the photographers, witnessed what happened between me and Senator Mrs Oluremi Tinubu yesterday, at the funeral service of Chief Mrs Kemi Nelson, at Archbishop Vining Memorial Church in Ikeja, Lagos. Before some people add salt and pepper to it, I need to state precisely what happened.

“Senator Tokunbo Abiru and Dr Tunji Olowolafe and I had walked in about the same time, and we went to greet my very dear Sister, Senator Mrs Oluremi Tinubu.

“Immediately she saw me, we exchanged our usual pleasantries, and then she asked me, “so Bob Dee, you’re not going to campaign for my husband,” I smiled and remained very calm before replying: “Your Excellency, I’m in PDP.

“She apparently didn’t find it funny and regaled us with the past I shared with her husband, and I tried to calm her down.

“Anyway, I went back to my seat and pondered on what just happened, and I soliloquised: “Before the PDP Primary, I had been asked repeatedly by journalists if I’ll dump PDP if I don’t get the ticket, my answer was NO. So if I had gotten the PDP ticket, would I step down for TINUBU of APC? The answer is No.”

Obi is outlandish, shallow, and empty.. but he is geniunely optimistic about a better Nigeria, but he just doesn't know how yet qoutes totally unnecessary statistics


How does someone who is outlandish, shallow and empty be at the same time genuinely optimistic about a better Nigeria? Is this a contradiction or an indictment on you for all your attacks against Obi.

I know that you are trying to justify your pay but will OBIdiently vote for Peter Obi. You can not really be supporting APC without sounding stupid.

As e dey pain you (Keyamo), e dey sweet us (sane and responsible Nigerians).

Emilokan knows that he is not acceptable in the North not even in the south neither is he among the Muslims, that's why he brought a core Muslim with questionable ideologies as his running mate. Is that not also a religious sentiment? Senior advocate of nonsense.

The little girl sees disaster in Tinubu's presidency hence, the frowning cum warning.

What manner of BAT is Tinubu? Those he coerced to attend his rally were not happy and this little innocent girl too is not happy.

Nigerians vote wisely in order to be happy

Atiku should face his karma squarely.
What goes around comes around.
When former president Jonathan pleaded with him, he refused to make peace with PDP but instead asked Jonathan to relinquish his ticket to him.

But now karma is serving him hot breakfast and he is running from pillar to post to assuage karma but it won't work. Even if he reconciles with the G5, it's still individual votes that would count.

Atiku should know that he can't eat his cake and have it and that a northern Fulani Muslim can not succeed another northern Fulani Muslim. Southerners are not fools

If the president's convoy could be attacked in the seat of power in Abuja and the same terrorists could break highly secured Kuje prison, who is a mere DPO's family that the terrorists would not feast on them?

Mr. President is riddled with incompetence and unawareness. This is more reason we must get things right in 2023.

This man should have humbly admitted the apologies instead of sounding so arrogant now. Imagine the magnitude of error the campaign council committed but they refused to tender a simple apology.

In deed, it's extremely difficult to market and sell APC and Tinubu to the general public. If you doubt me, ask Mr jollof and the repented urchins.

Anyone who doesn't vote for Peter Obi is the real enemy of Nigeria irrespective of your tribe, religion or political affiliation.

If you truly love Nigeria and wants it to work again, vote Peter Obi of Labour Party. Nigeria needs Peter Obi more than Peter Obi needs Nigeria. Let's rescue Nigeria together.

My advice: Pls don't let your political affiliation cause us more affliction beyond 2023.

Urchins will soon leave the social media just like their master. We will never relent in pressing their necks on social media until their sanity is restored.

I won't be surprised if Tinubu steps down for Atiku or Atiku steps down for Tinubu. The level of attack from both established parties against a supposed structureless party and it's flag bearer is really disheartening.

The two parties have refused to engage in issue based campaigns but have resorted to attacking the personality of a man divinely ordained to rescue Nigeria and Nigerians.

Both men and their parties have also refused to participate in the presidential debates and intellectual engagements where they are expected to articulate their plans on how to rule the country. No one should take the two old men serious.

Nigerians must take back their country through Mr. Peter Obi.

When will this fools called hunters will realize that all this animal are gradually going into extinction

While the white are busy looking for were to preserve this endangered species we black enjoy killing them for money and merry

I wonder what will happen when the hunters kill all of them.........I guess they will start hunting fellow humans

#BabaNowThatYouAreThere please preserve our wild animals from all this blood sucking demons called hunters

I'm seriously wondering why you have not established a nature park or a wild animal conservation park so that you would protect a dangerous animal like a bush pig from going into extinction.

Thinkam:
Let me indulge you sir, but what about the Majority votes Nko

Obi will drop out of the race latest December

Atiku is coming

Atiku really gave you a hard job to do. Must you be an enemy of this country?

Instead of you to be advocating for Atiku to drop off for Peter Obi the best candidate you're always all over Nairaland talking rubbish. Na who dey do you thinkam

Shot well fired at both Atiku and Tinubu

OBIdients too like vawulence. Tinubu left social media because of the OBIdients and now OBIdients are bringing convention to his backyard again. Why don't you people want Tinubu to rest small?

Make Tinubu no go get double HBP and kpuf before im time. Pls tell Emilokan to come out for a convention or presidential debate. We are tired of townhall meetings because townhall is different......

Tinubu really messed with the wrong generation and we are really showing him that he does not belong to our generation. All his generations and mates that wrecked this country have retired except him and Atiku.

He said that social media has abused the hell out of him, let me be polite to him, he should shut up because he has not seen anything yet.

Urchins have created a fake news which they will fact-check tomorrow.

Does APC think that 2023 presidential election is a direct contest between APC and Labour Party? APC is thinking that Atiku will not be on the ballot not realizing that all the Buhari bloc votes had gone to Atiku.

NigeriaIsGreat:
Tinubu will lord and rule over your kindred for good 8 years just as Buhari is currently rulling over them

Take this to the bank

I

Just pray that you, Tinubu and your kindred would even see 2023 not to talk of next 8 years

He is indirectly telling everyone that he would not support Tinubu.

A greater and better Nigeria is POssible with Peter Obi.

Those elders are just reminding Tinubu that he is their mates and should quit presidential race with immediate effect. Tinubu is too old to rule Nigeria, he should return to his grandchildren at Iragbiji village asap.

A stitch in time saves nine.

NigeriaIsGreat:
Nigerian baby politicians and their ego. Amaechi confessed he is scared to enter his State because of Wike.

Is that the President Nigeria needs? While Tinubu was a deliberate and methodical politician, Osinbajo was drafted into politics.

There is nothing in his nature that indicates he would not have happily remained a comfortable middle class lawyer had he not met Tinubu.

Meanwhile Tinubu is a politicians Politician. A deliberate leader of leaders. He was a Senator in his late thirties.

He was fighting Abacha in an organised fashion, through NADECO, at an age most Nigerians today are still trying to decide what they want to do with their lives.

Amaechi, Osinbajo etal should drop ego and support Tinubu or they can get lost. How many battles have either won and what battle has Tinubu, who has faced more than most, lost?

Some will mention Obi. The coward was pleading with OBJ on his knees yet still got impeached. Tinubu not only stood up to OBJ but totally retrenched Obasanjo's influence, through the PDP, from the SW.

Nigerians are too petty and tribalistic. If not it will be obvious only Tinubu can weild power productively on behalf of the South today.

Buhari did same.on behalf of the North because he is authoritative and as iconically supported as Tinubu is.

Difference is that Tinubu is fairer, more tolerant,and more detribalised and more modern than Buhari. He will get more results than Buhari by far.

We should not waste the turn of the South indulging weakling any section of the country would bully with ease as happened to GEJ. Are we not ashamed at how terrorised Nigeria is becoming because North does not want to grant Nigeria modern and more effective policing and security architecture?

US, UK and European nations are evacuating their citizens from Abuja currently and we are still clowning around. The rescue mission belongs to Tinubu alone.

I am tipping Tinubu to be an Awolowo of today. A father of the rebirth of Nigeria. He will never fail.Unless of course death stops him.

Is this what they paid you to be writing on all the threads? No matter the "hyping" for your pay, Nigerians will not hand a sick country to a sick man who had already promised/prepared to turn a rotten situation to a bad one

Tinubu is a local/regional politician. Instead of him to embark on national politics/campaigns, he's always running to southwest where he can comfortably use Yoruba language to tell them Emilokan ati Yoruba lokan.

Let him come to the national TV and explain his manifestos and how he intends to govern Nigeria.

Nigerians vote wisely.
Shun ethnicity
Shun regionalism
Shun sentimentality
Shun partisanship
