But OBI can right SW and core North while ATIKU can rig SW and SE right

You guys analysis is too watery.You are basing your analysis on just tribal factor of all the factors that influence election results.

Election outcome is always multifactorial!

If you truly believe that election results are determined by many factors, why do you think that a particular candidate can not win an election because the he won't get votes from the SE ?

Ofunaofu:
If you believe my point is wrong, the proper response would have been to present verifiable counter-facts, not emotional outrage. You didn’t provide any data to disprove the substance of my argument.

I may have exaggerated the 99.9% for emphasis, but the core fact remains undisputed: the South East overwhelmingly supported Obasanjo in 1999 and 2003 even when an Igbo son, Odumegwu Ojukwu, was on the ballot. The region also gave massive support to Yar’Adua in 2007, and repeated the same pattern with Goodluck Jonathan in 2011 and 2015.
These are not opinions; they are reflected in election results. So instead of nitpicking a figure while ignoring the reality it represents, provide alternative facts that actually contradict the historical voting pattern, if you have any.

You have already corrected yourself by saying the 99.9% votes was exergarated by you. That 99.9% votes only exist in your head and you are trying hard to pass it down for others to believe.

Streetinvestor2:
All I know is SW president won't see 10k votes in SE Even if remi is the returning officer.
We had 2 APC governors in 2023 and nothing has changed this time.So we should vote him now in 2027 for sentencing Kanu or bringing down igbo properties in lagos for the past 3 years Abi for being yoruba President. . Pls what will be the reason we will vote him in 2027 when the hate is even more now.What will be the campaign statement by his APC governors to igbos in 2027

Overtime, the SE votes have been considered to be inconsequential.

I can't remember any time someone lost in a presidential election because he didn't get enough votes from the SE.
Tinubu and buhari didn't get enough votes from that region and they still won.
Obi got 99.9% votes and he didn't win.

Ofunaofu:
What about Obasanjo receiving 99.9% of the votes in the South East in 1999 and 2003; Yar’Adua’s 99.9% South East votes in 2007; and Goodluck Jonathan’s 99.9% South East votes in 2011 and 2015?


In your jaundiced attempt to spew ethnic bigotry devoid of logic, the South East only started giving 99.9% votes to presidential candidates in 2023 because of Peter Obi.

Thunder 🔥💥🔥 there.

Where is your proof that Obasanjo and yaradua got 99.9% votes in the SE ?

Stop giving out wrong information with confidence.

You created a lie in your head and manipulated your head to believe the lie you have created. Now you want others to believe the same lie.

WizardOfNG:
Don't mind them. They conveniently avoid the fact that we all know the terrible things Malami did as AGF under Buhari, only a few years ago, meaning even the most desperate politician in the world, if minimally sensible and decent, will avoid Malami.

I don't know if you know Jeffrey Epstein who was an American financier with some of the most powerful men in the world as friends including Donald Trump.

He was later exposed and convicted of child sex offences.

Till today many are still falling on their own sword, like Peter Mandelson, UK Ambassador to the US, sacked earlier this year because of his friendship with Epstein.

Yet Obi is fraternising with the despicable Malami because he is so desperate to sit in Aso Rock. This is a straightforward issue of having or lacking decency.

Of course politicians will use unsavoury characters to get to where they want but it is a stretch too far, given what Malami did directly, that we witnessed and felt the pain of, for Obi to be going to lick the azz of our former AGF all leaders with even minimal decency should avoid. What next for Obi? Visits to Bello Turji to solicit his support?

Many Nigerians watched Malami fight Akeredolu and other SW Governors, over formation of Amotekun he tried to kill, and were fuming with rage because they understand he wanted to ensure we could not protect ourselves from the sponsored marauders he supported.

Obi betrays the victims of that painful period , same as he insensitively backed Abacha while the rest of Nigeria wanted to see the back of the evil dictator, because he is an unprincipled dark soul who pretends to be decent yet lacks even an iota of decency.

This is why Sowore, correctly, terms the two men in the picture, i.e Obi and Malami, "evil doers".

At this stage of Obi's political journey, he is ready and willing to do anything possible to become relevant and become the president of Nigeria.

If a yoruba man possess half the despicable characters of obi, the SE people will avoid him like plague. But because he is one of their own, they will continue to paint him white 🤍.

Imagine someone claiming Sowore is working for tinubu

Everyday is an event.


I thank God for the gift of life.

You this demolition happened and we didn't hear any wailing on nairaland ?!

Oh, maybe because it didn't happen in Lagos.

helinues:
Is it that some of you can't make any logical arguments without blaming FG even if the news is not about them?

How is the news not about them?

MadamVanessa:


It's not Obi wish to leave the labour party, but satanic Amunda Yekini has sent his agent to destroyed the party within repairs, it's good for Obi to leave the party for them. For a record, nobody knows labour party, nobody considers the party , the love and respect labour party garnered was all because of one man obi. I will like to see the popularity of labour party in the next general election. Let them present their presidential aspirant and let's see if the person will get up to 20 votes. Obi made labour party what labour is today, labour party is just being ungrateful. The only good thing remaining in labour is this Otti, and that's within the Abia state axis, because I know that Otti is winning his reelection because man is on steroid performance.

You said nobody knows about labour party but Ondo state produced a two - term governor on the platform of labour party.

Even Alex Otti just said he joined the party before Peter obi.

Politicians will come and go but parties remain the same. No single individual is indispensable in a party.

NNPP sacked kwakwoso and suspended their only governor ( Kano state governor ) due to indiscipline and the party hasn't gone into extinction.

If you think Peter obi was the man that brought labour party to limelight, let him go and contest on another platform and let's compare his popularity and votes with what he got with labour party.

They should show us what they have done with the last loans.

State governors should stop mortgaging their state

When the root is rotten, the branches will be affected.

Once the federal government stop borrowing, the states will follow suit.

Government of borrow borrow..

I don't know why federal government still borrows money to fund budget despite the huge fund generated from subsidy removal and tax.

I don't know why states still borrow money to fund budget despite the huge FAAC they get every month.

Funny enough, we don't get to see much of what they are doing with the money.

These northerners are making efforts to finish off themselves.

Only the north can solve the problems of the north.

Sadly, it seems they are not ready to rescue themselves yet.

helinues:
Could you define supporting blindly?

Supporting blindly in this context means you are supporting balablu for everything either good or bad.
There was never an atom of constructive criticism is your comment as far as balablu and APC administration is concerned.

You always find a way of painting the president in good light even when it is obvious they are getting things wrong .

My Almighty God rest his soul

helinues:
I am the most abused members on NL but has it changed a thing? No

Look straight emperor Wike

Truth be told, you and yarimo don really collect for nairalanders hand. Especially those saddists called obidients who don't like to respect other people's opinions.

But why do you like to support balablu blindly? I know balablu has done some few things that deserve commendations such as the subsidy removal, proposed local government autonomy, proposed creation of date police, Lagos Calabar coastal road, student loan etc.

But you are notorious for supporting and commending even the bad things he has done.

You deserve all the lashes bro

7,000 forest guards too small na.

...and which one be front line states again

All the states in Nigeria is front lines and the country is a flash point

Those forest guards should be deployed to all the states of the federation

Sheik gumi is currently the most abused person in Nigeria after balablu.

The terrorists enabler is not a politician though.

Sheik is not only painting himself in bad light, he is also busy painting 🖌️ his religion and his tribe in bad light 🕯️

The Nigerian armies can do even worse to the terrorists than what the US department of war has done.

I don't know why our armies are not allowed or encouraged to fight these terrorists head-on.

These bastards are cowards and they fear death more than harmless citizens they have been terrorising.

Sccarrr:
Gud ebening whine Chelshit for first half 😹😹

I am sure you are an arsenal fan and a member of justArsenal forum.

There are reports that not a single terrorist was killed in the airstrike. I watched a videos where some people at the scene of the incident were telling journalists that nobody was killed.


If this is true, it means Trump really misfired.

Let the try kwara, kogi, zamfara and sambisa forest for more airstrikes. Terrorists na water for those forests.

Most Muslim countries banned Christmas celebrations, and I see that happening in Nigeria by next 30 years if Nigeria does not break

Inferiority complex @ play...

Why didn't you say Salah will be banned in the next 20yrs if naija did not disintegrate.

Sheuns:
Which law says South must do 2 terms?

Oga there’s nothing like South. We have South West, South East and South South.

All man for himself is what we practice in Southern Nigeria.

Which law says that presidency is the heritage of the north.

It doesn't matter which southern part is in power. The south wether SW, SS or SE must occupy aso rock for 8 good yrs.

It has always been all man for himself since independence. Na you no understand.

iwaeda:
It is so certain that Tinubu is single time. I don't see him beyond 2027. May God keep us beyond then.

It doesn't really matter if balablu wins in his quest for second term or not.

What really matters is that the south must do two terms in office as the president of Nigeria.

The north will continue to wail and cry till the south are done with their 2 terms.

No way!

We won't take it!

Nsogbu Nsogbu and chest beating is the way to go.

Negotiation is for the cowards.

These politicians want to acquire the whole world

Putindbutt:
Effective from January 2026, President Bola Tinubu's Administration had taken a bold step to ensure Nigeria's landscape will undergo a significant shift with the introduction of a new revenue sharing formula. A change set to redefine how tax revenues are distributed across the federation. The new sharing formula as follows:
FG - 10%
States - 55%
LGs - 35%

This new principle of derivation gives states a greater share of the VAT generated within their borders. It reduces over reliance on federal allocations, promotes fiscal responsibility as well as fairer distribution.

This is very good step in the right direction if true. I have not taken time to grow through this new tax law stuff.

This will keep all governors on their toes and greatly reduce corruption at the center. Why are people criticising it

SMH

Dangote was aware of Farouk's reckless spending before now but decided to only voice out when is business is about to be affected.

The who think dangote is fighting for the interest of the masses should go and have a rethink.

Dangote is a coded politician and a business man combined.

He deliberately lowered the price of petroleum far below that of the importers before launching a serious fight against farouk lawal so as to gain public sympathy and trust.

He will later increase the price of petrol once he silence those issuing license to importers and force all petroleum marketers to depend on his product alone.
By then, no one will be able to compete with him. He may even decide to buy up other small small modular refineries in the future.

I am not denying the fact that farouk lawal is a very corrupt man who should be jailed for life. But why is dangote just speaking out?

Absolute power destroys absolutely

Ha.....Asbestos
Is that thing still in existence.
It is banned worldwide.
Abeg oh. Don't buy death and fix it over your head.

There are very good and quality asbestos that cannot emit dusts particles that will cause cancer or any ailments.

There are asbestos that are designed just like POP these days.

Your POP installer will scread it with POP cement and you won't even know it is not POP. This is what most people are using and you won't even know it is asbestos
