Pacesetterz:
Thugs of Lagos have now turned to another pple trying to make Lagos peace less? U never begin talk true. Most of d hoodlums in Lagos are ur brothers from oyo state and osun. Go and tackle ur brothers and leave peacefull lagosians alone

Don't mind the poor tribal bigot

Islandlady:
Hmm who are those miscreants that have overstayed and feel comfortable in Lagos and decided to turn themselves into nuisance

If this is how they are stoning their own leaders that have been looting their backward region it will be better!

Yorubas be wise, don't let some stupid people destroy our region abeg!!!

This is what I expected to hear from ilks like you, blame the people you always blame when something like this happens
For your information Lagos Island is a Yoruba enclave populated by Yoruba people. The people that did it are sons of the soil real Lagosians not folks like you from other Yoruba states

Oghene1st:
Wike is only hated by you Igbos. But you guys are inconsequential in the the scheme of things.

Erue!

This Urhobo guy you have started talking like Yorubas.The word inconsequential is a very derogatory word used on the Igbos
Igbos will shock Nigerians by 2023, Obi may not win but he will surely spoil some people's votes Remember in any state you go to after the indigenes, the next majority tribe is the Igbos, take it or leave it

The way things are going I won't be surprised if Tinubu becomes the next president of Nigeria
Things are really working in his favour, my prayer is that he should be magnanimous in victory and should not go on a Vendetta mission to perceived enemies and traducers
He should be fair to people who didn't vote him otherwise his regime will just be like or worse than PMB'S regime

Ijoh:
Yeah but they've picked Tamuno in the new central dialect in preparation for Ijaw Rep.

Ijaw Republic? Keep hallucinating

jaxxy:
The old corrupt lagos landlord is decieving himself with all these statements to patronise buhari to his DOA ticket. Nobody will vote a Muslim/Muslim ticket.


on the other hand tinubu belongs to somebody.

He must step down foe Amaechi. Period!

North may vote Tinubu once he picks a Muslim VP to show the South that they are in charge.
Anything can happen, Amaechi or Osibanjo would have been better option.
Tinubu will certainly not have it easy, if the north votes him , with SW votes he will win
I don't see any Yoruba man voting an Obi now that Tinubu will be on the ballot
Yoruba people loves their own so dearly

God1000:
Tinubu should emulate buhari and stop dictating who becomes governor in Lagos state

That's it, we don't hate BAT but will don't like his over domineering attitude of detecting who gets what in Lagos. He likes to influence everything from traditional, to Union, political institutions in Lagos.
What PMB did by remaining neutral in who succeeds, Tinubu I know can never do it
Let Tinubu change over a new leaf by allowing some contest to go organically without his dictatorial posture.
But the question is " can a leopard change its skin"?

NetValueFX:
Like Igbos care? Ijaw hate doesn't move an Igbo man because you people are low lifers!

Igbos are too busy to be reasoning Ijaw people

StopPipelines:
We hate both of them equally.

Shut the fvck up, you small boy!

StopPipelines:
We produce over 90 percent of all Nigeria's crude oil.

May God bless our Ijaw Republic hero General Ditari and the group he leads that have successfully brainwashed so many Ijaw that we are being bribed with our own money in the name of Amnesty and its time to stop all pipelines and go for Ijaw Republic.

Shut the fvck up!

Zelenskyy:
Delegates cashed out during Presidential Primaries...

Now is the turn for the Electorates to cash out...

Naija na real cruise country....

Who do us this thing ooO.... ?

That's how it goes, after all what's good for the goose is also good for the gander

reiddecuti:
People are always ready to compromise once carrots are dangled in their face, mostly those who have no act of discipline. If the system isn't ready to punish politicians that entice the electorates with soft baits, to compromise on the voting outcome, then we can never get it right. The circle of getting bad leaders will keep repeating everything 4 years.

There's no way electorates will not collect money offered to them by political parties during election because of these two factors; poverty and ignorance.

If poverty didn't make an electorate to collect money then ignorance will.

Avarice can as well make people to collect money before voting .
Since delegates collected money during primary election, the electorates will as well collect money during the general elections
What is good for the goose is also good for the gander

Politicians revel in illegality and injustice.
Their looting have wrecked the nation, just as Jonathan Goodluck rightly said many are in politics because of unemployment
Anyway it's the populace that gave them the leeway to do all these nonsense

Chydon888:
This man is very funny��.
Why are you conceding your running mate?


There's nothing that can be hiding under the sun.

Concealing not conceding

Chydon888:
How I wish APC will go for Muslim-Muslim ticket. It will be a good news for we LP.

On Peter obi mandate I stand come today, come 2023.

Go and get your PVC.

Tinubu will certainly win SW even with a Muslim VP, he is so much loved by his people and they are not worried with all these Muslim/Muslim ticket
SW are very liberal when it comes to religion and they have very high religious tolerance
If he gets northern votes and SW votes, he will win

Gwan2:
I Stan and re-Stan

Someone told me that El-rufai going for Muslim-Muslim ticket for the first time in a very multi-ethnic and religiously volatile Kaduna state was a litmus test for the grand agenda at the federal level, but I took those words with a pinch of salt. They are evidently playing out now.

You see, when it comes to political master plan and how to conquer territories or islamise a region, the core northern Muslims have no competition. They could trade off anything on the platter of religion, it’s that sacred to them. How many were bold enough to condemn, Deborah’s murder Infact, many applauded it, though in secret.

To a typical northern Muslim, religion comes first, then ethnic background before any other thing. Picking Tinubu out of other candidates at APC primary was to respect the closed door agreement of turn by turn presidency APC had, no option. The only way to appease their religious affiliation and give them a soft landing was to choose a Muslim from South, atleast to them is not a lose lose scenario.

El-rufai further divided Kaduna along religious line than he met it. A state that had been fighting religious war since I was 4yrs, and resort to religious crisis at the slightest provocation..a state witnessing massive onslaught of Christians, a state that kidnapping is normal…banditry is commonplace.. the southern kaduna people feel more threatened by el-rufai government than they ever had..Then the only way to bridge the gap is replace their only symbol of belonging and identity with a Muslim deputy, eve though most times, the Christian deputy is deliberately rendered useless or ceremonial by the Muslim governor, but it gives a psychological feeling of being part of the state to the region, further spiting them of their and telling them they are inconsequential. Tell me if that’s not bigotry, evil and wicked.

Any Muslim that support a Muslim Muslim project in Nigeria is not to be trusted by his close pals..especially on religious debates. I salute core northern Muslims that condemn such anomaly

As north place religion before ethnic background or tribe, Yorubas place ethnic background before religion, they are religious liberals.
Tinubu will win the whole of SW with a Muslim VP
The only zone that will be difficult for the combo is SE, may be SS and NC
With SW votes already locked and with Northern votes Tinubu will surely win
Remember the president of PFN and CAN are Yoruba people, they will subpedal when the campaigns kick off

SHINJA:
If you are a Christian vote for a Christian president.

If you are a Muslim vote for a Muslim President.

If you are an Atheist or Traditional worshipper vote for a Christian president...

If you want Sharia ,vote for a Muslim President..

If you want freedom and a country where people will not be killed because of blaspheme, vote for a Christian president...

God bless southsouth and southwest..

But South West are not rigid religious people, they place culture and tribe before your religion.
They will vote Tinubu whether with Northern Muslim VP or not

aribisala0:
Can you give figures to buttress your point. What are the most recent population figures you have?
Surely your claim must have a basis?
By your logic why can't Yoruba call Eboes a minority after all it is all relative

Sorry you're Yoruba person

aribisala0:
Eboes are are not as big as they think they are

These so called minority tribes sold Eboes as slaves for centuries. When the slave trade ended suddenly there was a surplus of unsold Eboe slaves and that is why there population is more than these so callled minorities who cannot accept their former slaves as masters
That is the summary. That is why Ikwerre never want to be called Eboe = Isuoma

Though am not a student of history, I know Igbos population is the highest among other tribes in SS and SE as at today. They are not so called minority tribes, they are minority tribes based on population. Your ideology can not change that fact.
Anyway your comment corroborated what I wrote with regards to Igbos and her neighbours in SS

Assetinvestor:
Here is the point, both Wike and Atiku bribed delegates with dollars. The two candidates were the major contestants and everyone knew that either of them would emerge. In such scenario, had it been Wike was accepted as an Igbo man, he would have gotten block votes from SE regardless of Atiku's bribe.

Secondly, when Atiku won, if had it been Wike was considered Igbo or had mass appeal among Igbos, Atiku would have made him his vice.

Therefore, Wike lost out completely because he wasn't considered Igbo but was seen as someone from a micro minority with no electoral value. Anioma Igbos are twenty times more populous than Ikwerres and they also enjoy the support of SE Igbos.

Same thing happened to Amaechi. The Ikwerres have lost a golden opportunity that may never arise again in this generation or next because they were shortsighted.

The problem minority tribes in SS and Igbos have is that their mutual rivalry and disdain. In the North minority tribes don't Rob shoulders with Hausa/ Fulani tribe. They know that they are minority and accept their position, while the Hausas equally integrated and accepted them knowing that united we will all win.
But here in South an Ibibio, Ijaw,Ikwerre man will be rivalling with Igbos and calling Igbos names while Igbos will be disdaining them at the same time
This is one of the reasons North keep ruling Nigeria
The mutual disrespect, rivalry and distrust among Igbos and her neighbours in SS is an advantage to northern political dominance

Afamed:
Stop your lies. South East didn't vote for Wike during the PDP primary. SE voted for Atilku$

Enugu and Abia delegates voted for Wike, while Anambra and Imo was shared between him and Atiku, Ebonyi state voted Anyim Pius

Many PFN members will even work for the combo if they feel the candidates are ok
Religion is personal, you can't force somebody not to vote a candidate based on religion
Tinubu choosing a Muslim VP is strategic and will give him victory
He will secure northern block votes who are predominantly Muslim, then SW will always vote him
He will surely get votes from SS and SE based on his pedigree and contacts
It's better for him to go with a Muslim north than to go with Christian north

godoluwa:
Any Christian who cast their vote for Muslim Muslim is not stupid but completely mad

#saynotomuslimmuslimticket

Muslim will never agree to Christian Christian ticket

Nigeria was never & will never be Islamic state

If the combo is good, I will cast my vote for them, after all is the same God we are calling through various ways

Tinubufit:
So some useless youths travel all the way from kogi to Abuja to protest against someone that not give a damn about them.

What's the distance between Logo and Abuja?

Cubalabloo:
Madam please keep quite.

It's quiet not quite

PlayerMeji:
Youth in the south west are mobilizing for Tinubu because leadership is all about experience and not age.

My account manager, Chinedu, affirmed to me that he would rather vote Tinubu than any other candidate because of his track records.

You don't mean it?

DaniDani:
The man that mean well to the people. In saner clime, with Peter Obi in the race, APC and PDP will replace their candidates with someone with good reputation.

Nigerians are not ready for the kind of leadership Obi typifies. We are still highly influenced by primordial sentiments of tribe, religion etc.
These two sentiments supercedes reasoning in Nigerian politics

Cjrane2:
Senator / Governor Ifeanyi Okowa is a fantastic choice!

PDP is putting together an unbeatable team. Most importantly, they understand the need to save Nigeria and make it a viable united country away from the current path of civil war that Nigeria has gradually continued to tread on.

Nice choice, Wike as VP will make some Northerners not to vote PDP since they hate him so much

Islandlady:
Hmm no dey package baby thief for me and be calling him a saint and savior, all politicians are thesame, but right now Nigeria with the mess it is today needs a tough, brave and experienced leader like BAT to break us out of this mess and also a leader that don't fear and answer any cabal instructions!

You are right and Tinubu fits this but Tinubu is not fit for now, I see him ruling through proxy just like PMB did.
Anyway I wish him well in his pursuit

blaquebelle:
Makes more sense. I wonder how rumours start. Like someone in their right senses just made up a story and spread it. For what reason?

To catch cruise

Koralords:
Compare this with the hagard looking p.o supporters in taraba,this what's called structure I

Why not compare them with Atiku's supporters? Atiku is Asiwaju's major opponent

Tinububalls:
I want us to have sense, when we have suffered till we don't even have the strength to shout, "I'm yoruba or I'm Igbo."
Na sign language we go dey use communicate.

We may get to that point
