The whole of South East is not up to Kano, Kaduna and Katsina.....

Always forget about this noise. Even though Igbos don't vote like other Nigerians but what you should know is that, a very many of them are all over other states unlike other tribes that mostly reside in their state or region. So, they might register wherever they are. That's my thinking and I've met more Igbos in other parts of Nigeria than any other tribe.

Atiku, Tinubu and Obi are all Nigerians. We should vote base on our conscience and not on tribal or religious line.

PandoraObi:
As long as it is not Peter Obi, any other is acceptable

May the best candidate win.

Such a great man he was!

dominique lalasticlala, this deserve home page to refresh our memories.

The country has changed drastically? And how old were you in 1993 to make this statement? Cos if you were old enough in 1993 you should know CAN did the same thing they're doing now then to oppose Muslim Muslim ticket and they failed

My friend, don't talk about age because it's not necessary. Whether you agree to it or not, Nigeria of 1993 is hugely different from Nigeria of today. The main protagonist in 1993 was a very popular philanthropist who gave a helping hand to all Nigerians irrespective of tribe unlike this one flying the same flag.

naija4life247:
When Kingibe was asked, during a debate in 1993, "Abiola and You are Muslims, how will the interest of Christians be protected in your government?"

Kingibe replied "Abiola and I are never and will never be representing Muslims or Christians in government, the interest of Muslims will be handled by Sultan of Sokoto while that of Christians will be handled by Okogie (the CAN President), we are representing Nigerians regardless of their religions.

My Boss Abiola comes from Majority Yoruba in the South West, I come from the Minority Kanuri in the North East. Abiola comes from core Private Sector, I come from core Public Sector to save Nigeria and move our country beyond the reach of bigotry."

That 'MuslimMuslim' Ticket won in 1993. Guess what? The man who annulled it was IBB a Muslim from the North and handed over to unelected Shonekan, a Christian from the South.

Political Office is not religion, do not bring religion to it and don't be deceived by fanatics.

The country has changed drastically unlike 1993. And, check the reply Alhaji Kingibe gave in response to his question and the genuineness in carrying everyone alone for shared prosperity. Tinubu and Shetima are too arrogant in answering questions because they believe nothing will happen. Besides, MKO was larger than life and was loved by many.

Trying hard to dissociate Peter Obi from IPOB when we all know he’s Ipob’s candidate.

You should be more intelligent than this.

I used to think Reno is a pastor. The rate at which people can go to tarnish someone's image just to get attention is alarming. Why trying to play ethno-religious line in a very important elections like this instead of issue base campaign to get the best for our country? I'm a strong disciple of Atiku of PDP and those close to me know how I've spent so much time, energy, effort, etc, to support him over the years but I'm not really happy about how our country men are bringing tribalism into this election instead of looking for the best candidate to get us working again. Even the LP candidate, Peter Obi, I've known him closely when I used to attend Holy Family Catholic Church, Festac Town many years ago. He's one of the finest Nigerians alive. This country would benefits a lot if he were to be our President.

What is really going on especially the ethnic card is making me lose so much interest in the future of this country and Nigerians.

But this is an old news nah that already made front page here before so, to what end again?

Chinkoalhaji34:
Because Obituary supporters keep opening thread about Tinubu.

How does what you're doing help your life to be productive?

Why is all your thread solely about Peter Obi?

Hi guys, what's the easiest way to fund Epik masterbucks? I need $100. Can someone here sell for me?

Why not fund it with BTC?

Okay.

Abiola is a drug dealer or not?

Stop this nonsense and allow the man rest in peace.

This David is a Yoruba guy so what went wrong?

Penguin2:
The problem with some of you is that you fail to update yourself.

The controversy generated by that Kogi election informed the new provision in the Electoral Act 2022, that in the event that anything happens to a flagbearer, his running mate will inherit the ticket and votes where applicable.

So, a Yahaya Bello will never happen again in Nigerian politics.

James Faleke would have been the governor of Kogi but APC exploited a loophole that existed in the 2010 electoral act but that loophole has been blocked.

Kashim Shetima didn't take part in APC Presidential Primary and so can't be elevated in this instance. That can only happen if, in the event election has taken place and one person dies while the winner is yet to be announced. Check the new electoral act very well.

Those making noise online don't know the kind of grievances on peoples' minds waiting to unleash in 2023. The outcome of 2023 elections would shock a lot of people.

Kagd10:
I tell you.

Henceforth, APC needs to focus on more cogent things during their campaign. Talk about Tinubu's achievements in Lagos'


In fact, if I were Tinubu, I would mention emphatically that Peter Obi lives in my Lagos and then, proceed to list my legacies in Lagos.

They should also emphasize on competency and how it should always take the cake, not religion. Besides, Tinubu is a liberal leader.

They should also emphasize on the fact that Tinubu has never taken any federal position hence no one should blame him over what he's has no hand in.

You guys are wasting so much energy on Peter Obi your fellow Southerner and leaving Atiku up North. You don't learn from history especially the 1979 elections, do you?

Subsidywise20:
That means that LP does not have enough strength to beat pdp or apc in their backyard.

And it also means LP supporters are in a minority.

That does not look good for the presidential elections next year.

Your party has work to do. Denying it does not change the matter. OBI needs to get out and recruit, recruit, recurit. Or else PDP or APC would be winning again...and Lord knows most of us don;t want them back.

LP is not my party. I don't have any party but individual. I campaigned for Atiku in the last 2 elections. I've voted candidates from different parties over the years. I'm not your typical Nigerian that are blinded by ethnic and religious considerations.

Subsidywise20:
So, they sabotage their party to support PDP...

That means PDP is stronger in Osun, and that means LP prospects of winning in Osun in 2023 is not good at all.

LP supproters should be voting for their party.

Adeleke is popular in Osung not PDP per say.

Subsidywise20:
No amount of shouting 'Obidient' up and down changes the fact that LP has a lot of work to do.

If Obi cannot get victories for LP at state and grassroot level, then he better forget about winning next year.

LP is scoring zero in most poling units. Zero. That is not encouraging at all.

I think Most of LP supporters are very happy if Adeleke wins. They are supporting him in Osun.

You mean the judge ordered the increment of judges' salaries

A very funny country

The judge want only judges to enjoy salary increase while teachers and other workers should labour to death

Jack500:
It is not making front page, go and hang yourself or leave Nairaland

Take it easy bro

Is this actually true?

YoobaNesan:
Why are you like this? Did you posted it?
Why don't we give credit to whom it is due.
I was just surprised when people where giving you kudos as if you were the op.
Albeit, the post is explanatory enough and your explanation is not needed.

Who be this one?!

RIP!
