You are a joker, how can primaries be tougher than general elections......😂😂😂
You can bribe 2000 people, but can you bribe 93 million people?. You must be seriously joking if you think Buhari will allow Tinubu to monetize this general elections.

It's obvious that Buhari is cooking something, if Tinubu wins this election then it would be one of the greatest wonder on earth.

I believe the fuel scarcity is been target to tinubu within the APC party. The other factions holding public post are using their power against him to bring PDP back to power. They prefer to work for PDP since most of them are from PDP. The likes of CBN governor, Rotimi ameachi, duara , etc. Even oshibanjo isn't left out. They all forgot tinubu is master of this game. He him self is a cabal already. He will surely scape through but will be tough for him.

This is one of the conspiracy theories that make sense at this point, even Tinubu is wailing now, Prof Sagay also just pointed out the fact that something is wrong, politics is really a dirty game.

Jostoman:
Obidient stay away from Urchin thread about buhari

You need to be a sensible Obidient, I will never vote APC in this election, just like I pointed our, the 10 litre of fuel I bought for 6500 today was 900 during Jonathan administration and 1900 before the fuel scarcity, how will I vote in this kind of party again, I'm just trying to look at the larger picture, there is something sinister going on and that's my point.

jumper524:
There's fuel, the supply is stable.
But there's a deliberate hoarding of fuel.
No doubt there are cabals intentionally doing this.
Who does this affect the most?

"Tinubu"

Why are the cabal aiming at frustrating Asiwaju?
It's simple, they ain't on same page.

Now it's left for Nigerians to choose between the cabal and Asiwaju.

The cabal have never made this country an easy one to govern, if Asiwaju is their headache, Then more than ever I stand solidly behind Asiwaju.

I sincerely believe that there is something sinister happening within the APC government, if Buhari was running for reelection, would he have approved the redesign of the Naira? I could remember he even refused to sign the electoral bill prior to his reelection 4 years ago. While these are good policies that will ensure free and fair election and must be commended, the question is that would Buhari approve it if he was vying for reelection? And would he allow the fuel scarcity to continue just 4 weeks to election?

Working on your psychic without you knowing

What do you mean sir?

Auchi has a large number of Youth due to thousands of students and ex students who decides to stay Auchi even after graduation, most of these youth are very rationale unlike other places. We barely complain about electricity as far as we can get fuel to power our generator, we also didn't complain about the hike in fuel prices during this fuel scarcity as long as we can get the fuel, but now look at what's happening? If Buhari was to be vying for election February, would he allow this fuel scarcity to continue like this?

So yesterday night the unthinkable finally happened to me, my 2 phones, laptop and powerBank went off.

There was no light which also means I can't get water. Earlier that yesterday I was all over Auchi looking for where to buy fuel but no filling station was selling fuel, I had to go back home because I was reluctant to buy fuel from the black market.


this morning I had no choice but to go look for fuel, once again the filling stations were not selling apart from Matrix filling station and the crowd there was like that of a market, I had to reluctantly buy 10 litres of fuel from black market for 6500 naira, I can't but remember that the same volume of fuel would have cost me a maximum of 900 naira before Buhari administration and about 2000 before the fuel scarcity.

The fuel scarcity has been around for months now and Buhari is not doing anything about it, this might work against the APC at the general election and everybody knows that.

So the question I am trying to ask now is; if Buhari was vying for reelection would he have allowed fuel scarcity to continue just weeks before the general election?

That's a fair percentage considering that there are about 24 House of Reps seats in Lagos. Igbos took only three and just one house of Assembly seat out of about 40.

Let's be fair to ourselves. Igbos constitute about 30-40% of all Lagosians. So this percentage is even bellow what they should aspire for. I expect them to get at least 40 % of 24 seats seats that's should be at least 8 seats of House of Reps but they took only three which means they(Igbos) are very fair.

Igbos are the worst statisticians on earth, if Igbo constitute about 40% of Lagos, what is the statistics of Yoruba and other tribes in Nigeria?

Osariemen12:
You probably heard from your kinsmen who wish everyone not in APC underperform.

For your information, Obaseki is delivering the dividend of democracy with the mandate we gave to him. I don't beg you to agree because I know you have no knowledge of other states in Nigeria.

For Oshiomole, no governor in the history of southwest Nigeria, dead or alive equals his good records in governance. You should think twice before you type.

What has Obaseki been doing bros? Abi no be Edo wey I dey so?

Governor Hope Uzodimma of Imo State says some businessmen in the South-East have donated over N1 billion to the campaign of the All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential candidate Bola Tinubu.

He said this during a Town Hall meeting between Tinubu and business leaders in the region on Thursday.

“After going through your manifesto, they came together and levied themselves N500,000 each to commit to your project to be able to realise the manifesto as presented by you,” the governor added.

“As of the last count, they are over 2,000 in number – they have their names and telephone numbers and email addresses – and have raised over N1 billion for this project.”

On his part, the spokesman for the group Emeka Mgbudem said they took the decision because they believe in the Tinubu project while thanking the former Lagos governor for making Uzodimma a part of the campaign team.

“Our capacity to support you has been heightened by our belief that with you as the president of Nigeria, our nation will be on the horizon of limitless opportunity,” he said.

He called on Tinubu, if elected, to help tackle the issue of numerous checkpoints on the roads in the region and equally build roads to link state capitals in the South-East.

While responding, Tinubu promised to deploy technology in the clearing of goods at the ports, a development he explained will make checkpoints irrelevant.

The APC chieftain also vowed to run an all-inclusive government if he becomes the president.

“So, I am here a Yoruba man seeking the votes and support and encouragement and prayers of an Igbo man, what is the difference in that? We are both carrying the same blood looking at the same God who is the creator and believing in the unity of our country,” Tinubu said.

Presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Atiku Abubakar, has asked northerners to vote for him in 2023, and not for a “Yoruba or Igbo candidate”.


“I think what an average northerner needs is somebody from the north who understands other parts of Nigeria and who has been able to build bridges across the country. That is what the north needs,” Mr Abubakar said in a now viral video.

A former vice president between 1999 to 2007, Mr Abubakar added that, “It (Northern Nigeria) doesn’t need a Yoruba candidate or an Igbo candidate. This is what the northerners need. So I believe I stand before you as a pan-Nigerian of Northern origin.”

Mr Abubakar prides himself as a unifier. However, this charge that the north must vote a northerner goes contrary to the public image of a unifier that he’s portrayed over the years.

Contrary to Mr Abubakar’s divisive ethnic and regional campaign, the 2023 flagbearer of the Labour Party, Peter Obi, continues to charge Nigerians to vote based on competence and capacity and not by regional, religious or ethnic sentiments.

At 75, Mr Abubakar will contest the 2023 presidential election against several contestants, including candidates of the All Progressives Congress and the Labour Party, Bola Tinubu and Mr Obi respectively, who are of southern extraction.

Mr Abubakar has since 1993 sought five times and failed to be Nigeria’s president; failing at party primary level three times and twice in the main elections.

The only thing that gives me Joy in this post is "Southern agenda" North Don finish their own, let south do their own agenda for the next 8 years please.

CYBERSOLDIERSre:
That's your level of hate for the Igbo's.
Igbo's makes up nt less than 30% of population in the north, not less than 40% in Lagos etc.

Holds the economy of this country, so tell me what makes them minority?

You don't have sense, 40 percent in lagos and 30 percent in the North, you're not wise at all, make God dash you small sense.

All those Anambra billionaires na just Audio billionaires, most of them are not even worth 10 million dollars.

VladimirPutiin:
Abuja is another Nigerian city captured in the report, with 800 millionaires, 30 multi-millionaires, and 3 centi-millionaires, but no billionaires.

I guess you believe this one too from the article.

You don't know what you're saying by asking me that question, how many billionaires in dollars do Nigeria have and how many of them make their money in Abuja?

iamwilliamsfx:
I'm. Not surprised because the state is filled with Igbo people

Igbo people are business man, we know what we are doing.

Cry me a river.

I'm surprised that Anambra is not in the list

Lagos has been named the fourth richest city in Africa, with 6,300 persons worth over $1 million and three residents worth more than $1 billion. This was revealed in the latest Henley Global Citizens report, which seeks to survey which cities in the world are favourites for billionaires.


The report further added that the number of high-net-worth individuals in Lagos has increased by 22%, with 330 people now having fortunes worth more than $10 million and 20 having fortunes worth more than $100 million.

According to Henley, Johannesburg is the richest city in Africa with 15,200 millionaires, out of which two are billionaires Cairo capital city of Egypt, came second, with 7,800 millionaires, while Cape Town, another South African city, has 6,800, similar to Lagos but with more multi-millionaire. Nairobi rounds out the top five with 5,000 millionaires, 240 multi-millionaires and 100 centi-millionaires.

Abuja is another Nigerian city captured in the report, with 800 millionaires, 30 multi-millionaires, and 3 centi-millionaires, but no billionaires.

What makes a millionaire? The report defines a millionaire as someone with investable assets worth millions or more. This includes cash, savings accounts and investments in stocks, government bonds and mutual funds.

Omoh! And everybody is dey wonder wetin be the course of the inflation.

ChangedMan1999:
Umunna, lekwa


North West 22.67 million voters

North East 12.8 million voters

North Central 14.1 million voters

South West 18.3 million voters

South East 11.49 million voters

South South 15.2 million voters


Don't give any idiot opportunity to tell you South East( Ndigbo) doesn't have significant population.

For certain more than 98% of 11.49 million of the registerd voters in South East are nothing but Ndigbo; People of other ethnic groups don't like staying or living in South East.

More than 30% percent South East people are not living in the South East.

Majority of this more than 30% lives in South West.

The rest are in South South and North.

Now, if you take a look at 18.3 million voters from South West you will see that not less than 4 million are South West based South Easterners.

And if you look at 15.2 million voters from South South you will see that not less than 2 million of the voters are South South based South Easterners.

Apart from South South based South Easterners, there are South South people who identify and are Ndigbo.

More than 4 million South Easterners are based in the North. And they registerd there.

If you add all this numbers together you will see that Yoruba actually doesn't have more people than Ndigbo



Writing....

I believe you should be ashame of yourself because it's either you're being mischievous or you lack basic statistical knowledge, by your submission almost 22% of registered voters in the South West are Igbo? Which mean every 1 in 5 voter in the South West are Igbo and the remaining 4 are Yoruba, Hausa, Fulani, Edo and other numerous tribe in Nigeria? What a life!

If you dey Benin and you no wan do yahoo na hungry go kill you, yahoo na normal thing for there, na your mama go carry you go hk self, abi make family contribute money take send their first daughter go Italy go do Olosho.
