Its for a different reason; they were arrested on alleged corruption charges and every Nigerian wishes all corrupt politicians end up in jail, so its a different thing.


But you see suppressing opposition and trying to foist yourself on the nation without giving opposition a chance to exercise their constitutional right, that's the most dangerous path that leads to civil wars and possible disintegration of most nations.


Go and check what causes civil wars in nations, its politics not fight against corruption

They're blinded by their greed, lust for power, and apparent determination to ensure a certain ethnic group NEVER produces president of Nigeria! Personally, i hope they continue along any path that would lead to the disintegration of Nigeria!

Kanwulia:
Who are the “Atiku-Supporters”?

Please, let us see your support base outside Adamawa.👍🏽

They're mainly Tinubu minions in disguise! A lot of them have infiltrated the opposition to try and set them against themselves! Notice how many of them on this forum are opening countless threads trying to set Obi supporters agaisnt others in the opposition?

hegelian:
even with rigging, they stand no chance unless the result is written inside inec with security gathering everywhere and it wont e possible in all 36 states of the federation. the logiticc will be too much that it will defeat the purpose...tinubu go learn lesson in 2027

He'll find it easy to rig in his south-west region. Of all the other five regions, the next easiest for him to rig would be south-south....that region has a lot of daft, self-serving and mindless so called 'militants' (ie, jobless ogogoro drinkers and idle rent-seeking agberos) controlled by leaders intent on trying to please the godfather just so the federal gov't contracts and largess will keep on coming! The remaing regions would be difficult for him to rig, but in difficult ones like the south-east, he'd mainly be looking for at least 25% of votes in as many states as he can get, and this is where he hopes the APC governors in the region and the ass-kisser in Anambra that's slavishly supporting him would act as enforcers to help rig for him! He would find it difficult to rig in the muslim core north....there it's either they're behind you or they're not. And if they're not, they wouldn't take too kindly to seeing their votes stolen and given to someone they don't like! The middle-belt is the hardest to predict which way things will go, but a large part of the region are as fickle and easily led as the south-south, and if he can rig any states in the region, it'll be Kogi, Kwara and maybe Benue....so it's 50-50 as to how well he'll do (rig) in the middle-belt.

Ndimkpurummiri:
Peter Obi will not be on ballot paper

Your wet dream abi?

Cyberterror:
Does Peter Obi still have time to decamp? Someone check INEC timetable for me

Asking someone else to help you check if una plan don work....ie, to use INEC and the compromised 'judiciary' to box Peter Obi into a corner in ADC, then work and pray that either Atiku or Amaechi trumps him to the ticket! You emilokan mandate snatchers are so terrified of Peter Obi....why is that!? It hasn''t gone unnoticed how you lot, who claim Peter Obi is not a credible opponent, are so obsessed with him 24/7! I've lost count of the number of threads on Peter Obi your terrified sort have opened and fallen over yourselves to comment on in the past few days, and one could be forgiven for thinking there are no other potential challengers in ADC for you to obsess on! Make una try get small shame na!?

What of the Sage of Omaha? I hear he's quite active in philantropy!

franchasng:
Opposition leaders should hurry and leave ADC for Tinubu and Ggajabiamila before it becomes too late because Supreme Court want to use delay tactics of announcing judgment in favor of David Mark after the timeline has passed, making the judgment useless.



Peter Obi and co should wake up on time.


Tinubu want to contest with Sowore, Kachikwu, and maybe Pastor Chris so that he can stand a chance of winning them in 2027

Hehehehehe

This one cracked me up!

You understand what the plan is!

saintokwuluora:
The Ambassador come even wear isiagu and travelled all the way to Onitsha...this will drive sleep from Tinubu's eyes.

I wonder if Tinubu has ever welcomed any Ambassador to his Iragbiji country home!

Ezeama400:
Just like it was in the 60’s, Igbos have regained their rightful position in education and other areas..

That's a conceited and misplaced statement to make. The position is not the 'rightful position' of any group! Anyone or group that puts in the effort can carry first in education....it's not a birthright!

IsraeliAIRFORCE:
Foreign grants are magical. No Western country can give a thieving governor a dime, let alone debt relief. Okonjo-Iweala is connecting Abia State to countries that matter.

I do hope Aunty Ngozi is helping connect Abia state gov't to countries and international financial institutions that matter! She was in the state few weeks ago, and must have seen and been impressed by the commendable efforts the Otti admin' are making in governance. It's about time Ndigbo start benefitting from having our sons and daughters in high positions in international multilateral financial institutions like World Bank, WTO, Afreximbank and IFAD.

jakumo, if you know you're gonna throw jabs at others and run behind the anti-spambot for protection, then have some shame and don't throw the first punch! You're pathetic!

Can the nairaland mod that keeps on using the auto-spambot to hide my posts tell me why my right of reply to the jakumo fella is being denied me? I was minding my own business when out of nowhere he sent me a rude and condescending post, and TWICE NOW that i've posted a response to his unsolicited post, TWICE has it been hidden! At the last attempt, my post was visible for a good length of time...long enough for me to make a correction to a typo' error, but when i came back some time later to see if there was any reply to my post, lo and behold it had been hidden YET AGAIN! Meanwhile, the post i've been trying to reply to is left up there! Is this forum giving everyone a level playing field or is the field, as some suggest, tilted in favour of a particular ethnicity/region and political leaning!?

I'm surprised people don't know by now that the stevesteve poster is a well known Igbo-hating troll that doesn't mind spending all day trying to discredit YouTube clips of cities/towns in the south-east and set naive unsuspecting Igbos' against each other! I also suspect he is (or they are) here on nairaland pretending to be Igbo! They noticed how nicely the blogger presented Enugu, and their black and envious hearts immediately started looking for what to say to discredit the city! Pray, which city in Nigeria has fixed its water supply issues to individual homes and businesses?

This is the clip i suspect he watched and was overcome with hate and envy!:

WizardOfNG:
Typical. You guys, more than anyone else, revel in victimhood because you simply do not have the capacity to be reasonable and to accept responsibility for your wrongdoing.

You will forever be problem to yourselves because of this basic flaw that is crucial in defining humanity.

When you cannot see your wrongdoing, to then own up to such and accept whatever punishment is prescribed, you are a problem.

Dude, one can't help but wonder why you're zeroing in on this particular extract from a much wider assertion or story!? It appears you're just fishing for something 'incriminating' you can use to try and 'justify' the hatred you and your boss Tinubu have for Mazi kanu and also 'justify' your support for tagging him a 'terrorist' and making the necessary moves behind the scene to ensure he's moved to Sokoto! Nothing in all this sordid affair shows malice, hate and vendetta more than that last act of ensuring Mazi Kanu is moved to Sokoto! When i warn Ndigbo to be wary of characters like you and Tinubu, situations like this justify my stance!

Are you taking exception to that particular snippet because you thought Mazi Kanu was threatening you, Tinubu or your entire ethnicity? I'm just trying to understand your thought process here! Other prominent Nigerians have equally called out your 'darling' Nigerian military for being complicit in the protracted high level of insecurity in the country...particularly the northern part, and have accused them of colluding with terrorists! They have told civilians to arm and protect themselves against these vermin criminals....whether the terrorists or the military personnel colluding with them! All that one no concern una! Rather, what you're obsessed about is how to try and rope in Mazi kanu, IPOB and Igbo in general into the unfolding story of insecurity in Nigeria! Talk about chasing rat from room to room when the entire house is going up in flames!

That daft accusation of 'victimhood' is laughable and just you playing your usual mindgames! Mention specifics that show this 'playing of victimhood'! What you want is for us to keep quiet while you churn out all sorts of lies, revisionism, and engage in all sorts of wickedness against those you despise and see as the 'competition' that needs to be sabotaged and held down!

WizardOfNG:
Rubbish. There is no validation for any man, in a society that is guided by the rule of law, to declare he has the power to decide who lives or who dies.

As simple as that.

Horseshit! YES!.....It's adequate validation to fight madness with madness when one can't get protection from the rule of law and is forced to operate based on the laws of the jungle! You want others to be bound by the limitations of civility and rule of law while you're free to go rouge abi?

So this is the 'smoking gun' you have against Mazi Kanu that 'justifies' you and the demonic Tinubu gov't tagging him 'terrorist', getting him 'convicted' as one, and getting him to serve the 'sentence' in Sokoto!?.....Or is there more?

WizardOfNG:
I have no time, like others do, for making things up or lying against another man dishonorably.

Just as i expected....you take a small snippet of a wider statement or discussion, which on it's own doesn't convey the right intent of the speaker, then frame it as the be-all-and-end-all of the discussion!.....Basically, quoting out of context! I suppose that was you giving the unsolicited jaundiced and revisionary editorialising in the clip?

We were all here on this forum when Buharis' murderous goons were mowing down in cold blood tens if not hundreds of innocent Igbo/Biafra youths and agitators! Mazi Kanu was complaining about the extra-judicial state-sponsored murders, but at the time forumites like you either laughed at him and the situation or went on to 'justify' it! Mazi Kanu is only human, and when he sees his own kinsfolk murdered by the evil hegemonic state who then turn around to laugh in his face at his anguish, were you expecting hugs and congratulatory back-slaps in return? His anger was RIGHTLY directed at the evil Nigerian state whose security forces, to this day, are still embroiled in sordid questions of human-rights violations, extra-judicial murders and enablement of terrorists.....THAT'S THE CONTEXT IN WHICH HE MADE THAT STATEMENT! But i don't expect you to see reason or empathise with the many Igbo/Biafra victims of the murderous Nigerian state because your contempt for anything Igbo, Biafra, Kanu, Obi, Otti, etc, is well known!

A moustache not a beard....and i think of Adolf Hitler and the 3rd Reich when i see him wear it!

Mbanda:
Even the 117 individuals who were enrolled lack sufficient information. Had they been adequately informed, it is likely that they would not have chosen to participate.

That's if they're even Igbo sef!

gidgiddy:
Nnamdi Kanu said this, Nnamdi Kanu said that

Meanwhile, you government has released over 700 'repentant' terrorists

All they have against him are conjectural claptrap, gossip and what they say he said! A 'terrorist', yet till today they're yet to link even ONE terrorist act to the man!

WizardOfNG:
Someone who bragged messianically that he has power to decide who lives or dies cannot order the killing of his own people who disagree with his 'God of man' instruction (sit-at-home etal) or attempt to stand in his way?

Care to corroborate your claim since it appears you're a avid follower of Mazi Kanu and his broadcasts!?

Tailorcaesar:
Back in 2018, right after finishing NYSC. I enrolled for the Nigerian Army here in Onitsha, after going the the rigorous surety and obtaining signatures from LGA and traditional rulers, I entered camp, I engaged in all the sporting and educative activities in the camp, when the names came out I saw my name written boldly that I wasn't shortlisted, that I can neither read nor write. mind you I just finished my NYSC, whereas so many people from the north where in our camp, and their names got shortlisted under Anambra, I know one Musa Muhammad who can't read out his name in English was shortlisted.

These are one of the few reasons why so many igbos refused to enrol in the NIGERIAN ARMY

Thanks for the enlightening anecdote bros!

Image123:
They should pick them from their bedroom or shops to make them Chief? Current airforce chief Kevin Aneke from Enugu is not Igbo enough? Ikechukwu Ogalla is not Igbo enough as head of Navy? Ihejirika, Madueke, Malu and co are not Igbo enough. Or they didn't rise through the ranks? All these gaslight doesn't help anyone or work.
When you reduce your number, you reduce your chances in years to come. You'll still gaslight with marginalization then, no be you?

Sure!....Because your Nigeria only started existing 15 or so years ago when Ihejirika was appointed the first Igbo COAS since Aguiyi-Ironsi!?

They're not as quick to chase up south-east youths when it comes to employments into NNPC, CBN and other establishments owned by the federal gov't or which they have significant or controlling interests in!

ariesbull:
That's the problem with the in that side of the country .... Always food food and food

Bros, thanks to the weaponisation of poverty and baba-sope brand of politics Tinubu has enthroned, that problem is fast spreading to all regions of the country....including our own dear south-east!

alanto:
This guy is a content creator if you don't know him it's on you. But he's a content creator.

Yeah.....like what he's saying (content creating or not) isn't the reality on ground!

Ofodirinwa:
I have realized the obsession with Igbos in Nigeria comes from a genuine belief among non-Igbos that Igbos are superior and special in a way they are not.

It's just innate hatred and xenophobia! And let's say it as it is.....this is coming mainly from TWO ethnic groups and not non-Igbos as you say!

georgeakins:
Prepare your soul for maximum wailing and extreme gnashing of teeth come January 2027

What's gonna happen come January 2027?....You miserable lot perfected your rigging plans?

A4alpha:
People keep shouting as if they don't know the man who appointed him to that position, as if you lot expect baba to appoint a clean guy before? as a matter of fact this is his pattern, the SP nko who did he come about, even the CJN etc. the dirtier you are the better so he can have a comfortable control over you incase you don't do his bidding

The surprise here is anyone being surprised he went for a character like Amupitan! What were they expecting?
