On Thursday, November 17, 2022, President Barack Obama, who is not an incumbent, gently warned Trevor Noah that it is rude for Mr Noah or anybody else to call him by his first name. He explained, "You should call me 'Mr President. '" President.'" Those were his exact words.

If that is the decorous way to refer to a former President, how much more so to an incumbent leader.

Tinubu et al started it with Jonathan. Is it clear now?

WizardOfNG:
Is something wrong with you guys from a certain region per your negative obsession with believing Yorubas are seeking affiliation with any Southerner, least of all you lot?

I made a Statement of fact. Tinubu is a Nigerian President from the Southern region of our nation with the clear point Northern Political leaders believe they are superior to leaders from the South and that they deserve to be in power always .

Post is crystal clear and you say "you and who is South" while your brother shouts "unity beggars". Do you guys not see , with your reaction, it appears you have lost it and perhaps need professional help?

So stop mentioning South and call it what it is

WizardOfNG:
Whatever. Keep worshipping the North. So what if they supported Tinubu? Was it not the least they could do after the SW helped Buhari become President after three futile efforts?

Go and sit down bro. It is we in the SW who will show them Shege rather.

Non of you are even aggrieved Atiku, showing disdain for you in the South, seriously attempted to replace Buhari in 2023 which may have made it a possible 16 years of Fulani rule for Nigeria.

So why are you complaining? They have returned the favor and now say no to Bola. Stop complaining.

If they rule 30 years, is it still not you people that helped them?

TheChameleon:
Will be funny if Tinubu intentionally lets this guy remain as designate till 2031.

That's what I would do considering his comment history.

Will just leave him hoping and defending me till the end of 2nd term

Will have staff who will come and take your official photograph and documentation for diplomatic passport you wouldnt receive.

On the 95th month / 96 months - 8 years.... You get credit alert of NGN 5,000 with " Ambassador Designate Salary" as remark.

Even FFK that joined the Rhino to insult Tinubu has since resumed work o. The Rhino is learning tribalism by designation.

Britishpea:
Calling him by his first name isn't the issue here but the precedence. That's a press news!! Why about when you guys love become the president and one angry bird decides to be calling him by his first name.

Should we say there's no democrat in Nigeria?? Civility is a great factor of a great leader.

Tinubu started it so

Lekby25:
I'm not a fan of Reno, but on this one, he is saying an absolute truth. No matter how much you hate the person of a President, you should at least give respect to the office of the President and Commander in Chief of the Armed Forces of Nigeria. Disrespecting that office amounts to disrespecting the nation called Nigeria

AndroBlaze:
Is it to hard to have expected your primary school teacher to have thought you the difference between"SURNAME" and "FIRSTNAME" ??

Anyway, if Obi ever gets there and Northerners get impatient and start calling him all sort of slurs ( that they usually use for easterners), just remember that you defended this.

APC like Tinubu, Lai Mohammed, Whole Soyinka, Remi Tinubu and others started it. So they're being paid because it's payback time.

We'll compare when he's contesting for presidency. For now, he's contesting as a future minister so there's no comparison to make.

You don't compare Real Madrid with Remo Stars. Nor compare apples with oranges.

helinues:
Go to average Northern states, ask them if them know who is Peter Obi, there closest guessing would be Mikel Obi the footballer.

How can you suppress unpopular candidate's votes?

Yet according to INEC he got more than a million votes in the north where they thought they were voting Mikel ba?

Obi won't get less than 10 million votes in a transparent election. That's why I want him and Atiku to form a joint election monitoring team

helinues:
How can Tinubu come third in North when in 2023 election ,Peter Obi got only 5,000 votes in Sokoto state out of the 500k other candidates shared.

Obi's votes in the north was surpressed because he had no eyes on ground and trusted INEC

helinues:
How I wish I could find the thread I created immediately after the 2023 election claiming Obi was allowed to received the 6 million votes most especially some votes he got in SS and some part of NC just to reduce Atiku's chance

Wike recently corroborated that.

Muslim Muslim ticket, health, naira redesign are no longer there towards the 2027 election plus president Tinubu is now the Nigeria president .

All South South states are are now in Apc. Okowa who viced Atiku in the last election is now in Apc

Tinubu hasn't got the numbers. People like El Rufai cooked it for him in the north last election. They'll cook it for Atiku this time.

If they don't succeed in suppressing Obis vote in the north again, Tinubu's position will be third. Just like the last time before INEC switched off the IREV

DoTheNeedful:
I keep say that some of you didn't properly analyze the 2023 election results.

It is very possible for Atiku to win the North, Obi winning South, and Tinubu winning the presidential election.

This is a contest among three strong candidates. Winning the most number of states does not automatically guarantee a candidate a win. The advantage Tinubu has over Obi and Atiku is that he is coming first or second in almost every states in Nigeria. In the Northern states Atiku will win, Tinubu will come second. In the Southern states Obi will win, Tinubu will also come second. There are states Tinubu will win as well.

Tinubu comes third in the north and third in the south. The vote manipulation of 2023 won't work this time because no Nigerian is trusting INEC.

helinues:
Lol.

Considering the way Peter Obi has been showing how dull and uninspiring he is, you think any sensible Southerners will vote for him outside his region?

So sensible southerners will vote Tinubu ba? issokay

Orinechi:
Atiku and Obi joint ticket couldn't defeat Buhari in the 2019 election despite all the campaigns of calumny against his person particularly from the South Eastern people. How do you feel that Tinubu will be defeated by the two disjointed opposition? No be juju be that?

Tinubu is not Buhari. He doesn't have the numbers and the base. And the northerners who rigged for him in the north against Obi will be betting on Atiku this time

helinues:
Apart from South East states and probably Edo state, which other states in Southern region can Obi win?

Obi Wins all south plus Lagos leaving Tinubu struggling in Yorubaland.

WizardOfNG:
You always think childishly. Is Tinubu factually from the South or not? What concerns unity begging here?

The simple and central point is that Atiku, your ward, and many of his Northern peers believe they are "owners of Nigeria" who were" born-to-rule" with both tags being created for them specifically because of their historical behaviour.

How many military coups led by the North and how many by the South? With even one attempted by Northerners against Tinubu recently? Grow up guy. Face the truth.

Tinubu is from Yorubaland

Rhino, Rhino

I see confusion all over you

How is Mexico. Hope you'll help them recover Texas from Trump

And don't forget the Palestinians too. Them don see shege for Netenyahu hand.

You're doing a good job Rhino. Please keep it up

What is Tinubu left with except another magic?

Igbophobia:
Atiku Atiku

Giving them nightmare ...hot hot 🔥

Mariangeles:
If Atiku had been playing this type of politics right from time, he would've been a force to reckon with by now.

Onu n'ekwuru oha. The voice that speaks for the people.

Atiku's problem was always running away to Dubai after every election and reappearing to contest in the next election cycle.

I see he has learned the connection lesson and is trying hard to connect with the electorate this time. His known aloofness is no more there.

Even I am impressed. Peter Obi is still playing the gentleman politics while Atiku is the hungry one for power.

If he'll be different from Tinubu is another ball game, but in this campaign AA is leading.

LOVEGINO:
If you like run ya mouth. U no go ever smell dat sit.

Atiku will win north, Obi will win south. One will win presidency.

.

Cherrybae:
After 2027 elections results are announced, I see Atiku might commit suicide.

No matter the level of criticism, Atiku can never defeat Tinubu.

Atiku is merely enjoying the social media hypes by obi supporters.

We shall see

I hope you and Obi will give us a joint press conference on how you guys hope to stop the rigging machinery of APC and Tinubu

Na eye him they look una

If it's not for money laundering for Nigeria politicians , I agree

He didn't hear pi pi pi and he didn't hear po po po.

This is the result.

People loving bribe money more than their lives

Atlantis585:
I know Tinubu is a horrible president and I don’t like him or his APC government. But he is still better than Buhari was. Let’s be careful not to fall into Fulani trap and hand power back to them again. Let Tinubu complete his 2 terms and reset Nigeria first.

Please keep quiet. What is wrong with Buhari you praised for eight years? He's now bad because your tribesmen are looting?

BATified2023:
How can u tell me to vote wisely n your definition is for me to vote a man who made doctors to go on strike for good 13 months?

A man who made lecturers go on strike for good 6 months

A man who didn't conduct local government election for good 7 years thereby denying grassroots governance.

A man who owed all the staffs of the state n cripple every sector?

If not for tribalism, I can bet u will never support obi if he's not your brother

Nobody says you should vote wisely o because everybody knows you lack the requirements to do that.

So vote based on your capabilities.

wirinet:
Exactly! How is Europe a continent? I thought the definition of a continent is a large, unbroken tract of land that was not interrupted by major oceans. So which ocean surrounds Europe? How come Russia is in Europe and in Asia at the same time? Is Russia divided into 2 by an ocean? Then there is the issue is Israel? Is it in Africa, Asia or Europe?

The reason is simple. The white man made the rules because they industrialized first even though their rules were lies meant to give them an advantage. It should have been one continent Eurasia.

keemsleek:
Is Turkey in Europe or Asia?

Turkey is in both Europe and Asia. In fact If you've been to Instanbul, it's a city that straddles two continents of Europe and Asia.

Rapmoney:
Russia is found in two continents. The larger part of Russia is in Asia. You need to study more.

You're the one who needs to study. Russia is an European power which colonized Asian peoples.

Are the British Africans because they colonized you?
You can say it straddles two continents but can't call Europeans Asians.

Cocolatti:
It's 2014 all over again.

Amaechi was used by the North to capture power from Good luck.

Now he's been used against another Southern President

Point of correction. Tinubu is not a southern president. He represents himself and his friends like that Lebanese and APC bigwigs. Not even you data bois.

nairalanda1:
Yeah, NIgeria is a failing state, that does not mean we should not take drastic measures against kidnapping. Nigeria was a failing state in 2008, that did not stop Peter Obi from reducing kindapping in his state by destroying kidnappers houses with bulldozer.

Even Italy I mentioned, Italy was a mess economically in the 1990's. That did not stop them passing the harsh law. And yes, people shouted at the government, and called them heartless.


Yes, it is not my family. But we cannot keep oon paying kidnappers because Nigeria is a failed state. The more we pay them, the more they kidnap, till it affects you and me.


Desperate times call for desperate measures. Enough payment of Danegeld.

The payment isn't the main problem, but the will of the people at the top to fight the scourge.

Have you not heard that even the government is paying ransom themselves just to cover face when school children are kidnapped?

Did you not hear when they even paid bandits to remove an anti-aircraft gun from them just because Buhari's presidential jet could become a target when he visited Katsina?

Those are the type of leaders, the Muslim-Muslim type that will fight terrorism?
If the people at the helm lack the will, forget it. No one is fighting anything, unless it concerns them directly or the prospect of them retaining power.

People don't just die like that. They should investigate what killed him.

nairalanda1:
Yeah the Italians all cried foul when they brought the law online there

But within three years, kidnapping reduced drastically.

At some point we got to stop paying these people, otherwise it would embolden them to come and kidnap me and you. Because they know there is money in it

We all refuse bto ask the right questions: Why is Nigeria becoming a failing state?

Without answering that question, the country will continue moving in circles.

People brought in these terrorists. People are sponsoring them. What is the government doing about that?

You want to fight terrorism and you have a Muslim-Muslim ticket? Joke of the century.

The hoardes are marching. If you know what I mean.
