So nah all this money he stole he wan invest in his governorship ambition

YouAreNobody:
I've changed and rechecked and your name isn't on the list.

So?

ComeComing:
Even though your people are what you just said, but for now, let's leave tribalism and engage ourselves intellectually bro

It's just a simple question; Can Tinubu survive an Atiku/Obi merger?

So the thread you created early in the morning because of the sleepless night Yoruba dey give you... What's it called?

ComeComing:
Sentiments aside, we all know that after a Buhari/Osinbajo merger, Atiku/Obi merger is the strongest political merger in the country.

Which leaves me asking, what will Tinubu do if Obi agrees to deputize Atiku? In my opinion, I think he'd be forced to drop Shettima for Kwankwaso.. as water don pass garri.

But wait, Tinubu still has another hurdle to bypass, which is; What if Seyi Makinde wins PDP presidential primary? And proceeds to run, won't that be a big blow to Tinubu's second term ambition, as another Southern candidate will only divide his votes in his strong base.


To cut it short, If Atiku/Obi becomes a thing in 2027, while Seyi Makinde runs under PDP, how will Tinubu win?

if nah Yoruba man write this kin comment, your brothers go start to dey cry and wail about how some people are Fulani slave

Heffalump:
Stop that nonsense statement. His stomach pushed him rather. Has Reno being stable in politics? He goes there like that bird they called Vulture anywhere there's food.

Obidients pushed Reno towards Tinubu's camp. Aggressiveness and anger won't stop the fact

onatisi:
very strong worded statements from el rufai , it seems he has a point to prove.tinubi is in big shit most especially if this insecurity issues continues , by next year there will be riots and protests across the nation . each day even in the south west tinubu popularity drops on a daily basis

Nah so your people dey make mouth say Tinubu will never become the president of Nigeria.

Kalashnikov49:


Dem no born Dem well to talk. Dem dey fear El-rufai like Ebola virus.

We Yorubas are not cowards. We don't beat our chest unnecessarily. Tinubu stood against northern cabals in Aso Rock without fear, he won the APC ticket and also won the presidential election.

We can still remember how your people went to the north to beg after they gave your people a quick notice

RexEmmyGee:
In many countries, especially emerging democracies, society displays a troubling double standard when dealing with threats to constitutional order.
I watch and read on how coups especially the recent one in Guinea Bissau was widely condemned while the rigging of elections were usually followed by congratulatory messages even by advanced countries whose elections monitors report widespread manipulations of the elections they observed.
A military officer who attempts a coup is instantly labelled a traitor. Leaders, civil society, and the international community condemn the act with one voice.
Yet a politician who rigs an election—subverting the will of millions—is often celebrated, defended by party loyalists, or rewarded with political office. Even the judiciary looks the other way round or even sometimes aid the abuse of democracy.
This inconsistency is not only morally wrong, but it also undermines the very foundation of democratic governance.
The truth is clear: both coup plotters and election riggers commit treason. One doesn’t deserves condemnation while the other receives congratulations.
A coup plotter seizes power through force.
An election rigger seizes power through fraud.
The tools differ—guns versus forged results, intimidation versus ballot manipulation, tank versus technical glitches—but the objective is the same:
to gain power without the consent of the people.
In constitutional democracies, sovereignty belongs to the citizens. Any act that overturns, manipulates, or bypasses their will is an assault on the state.
Whether power is stolen with a rifle or a rigged tally sheet, the theft is still treason.
Coup attempts provoke outrage because they are dramatic and visible.
Tanks, soldiers, and emergency broadcasts make the betrayal unmistakable.
Election rigging is quieter.
It hides in official language, legal processes, party celebrations, and manipulated institutions. Because it unfolds under the cover of “civilian politics,” many accept it as a normal part of the game rather than acknowledging the truth:
Election rigging is a civilian coup.
The Damage Is the Same—Sometimes Worse for election rigging.
Both coup plotting and election rigging produce illegitimate governments.
Both destroy public trust.
Both weaken the constitution.
Both fuel instability and conflict.
However, election rigging can be more dangerous in the long run.
While a coup is abrupt and easier to reverse, electoral fraud corrodes democracy slowly, normalizing impunity and weakening institutions for generations.
A rigged election is simply a coup conducted in slow motion.
A nation cannot claim to defend democracy if it only rejects military coups while tolerating electoral theft.
Democracy is not a matter of preference—it is a matter of principles.
If stealing power by force is treason, then stealing it through rigged elections is equally treasonous.
The method may differ, but the betrayal is the same.
In conclusion, to build stable, credible, and enduring democratic institutions, societies must adopt one consistent standard:
_Anyone who undermines the people’s will—whether wearing uniform or agbada—commits treason against the state.
Coup plotters and election riggers are not opposites; they are reflections of the same anti-democratic mindset.
One should never be condemned while the other is congratulated.

Until both are treated as equal threats, democracy will remain fragile and vulnerable.

Obi and Atiku were given the chance to prove to the court and Nigerians how they won the election, instead of them to give us the real figures, they started talking about how Tinubu didn't attend Chicago State University and other irrelevant issue.

Every sane person and organisation around the world knew President Bola Ahmed Tinubu won the election. Losers can keep on wailing

The oyinbo man dey enjoy IPOB money. Una go wail till 2031

Reno is a very lucky man. Obidients pushed him to Tinubu's camp.

You would properly know how to copy a website link if you had 🧠
Someone that can not properly copy a site link copying a Google summarised page. I ain't clicking anyways.

it does not matter if you click the link or not 🤡

The UK is a police state for banning a supporter exercising his right abi Mr 🤡?

https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/rcna63319

The US is also a police state because someone was arrested for talking? Abi no b so arindi?

If the people of Guinea Bissau do not reject the madness, very little can be done. AU and ECOWAS should sanction Guinea Bissau and all the actors participating in this shenanigans.

This is what some so called "lovers of democracy" wanted in Nigeria because their candidate lost a free and fair election in 2023.

SEOJanitor:
You clearly haven't studied much.
You clearly don't know the difference between democracy n the police state you live in

The joke is on you 🤡

https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.bbc.com/news/articles/ce3qkrrqkldo.amp

A 🤡 like you needs to also advise the UK about freedom of speech because a fan was banned for racist comment. He shouldn't have being banned because there's freedom of speech according to you. So the UK is also a police state.

Look at Aregbesola doing the same thing he accused Tinubu of doing

This is madness

You will shed tears again after you're defeated in 2027

Nova01:
even if that was true , which I doubt cause people with such characters create scenarios that suite their agenda. Naa the girl toast m abi naa hmm do ojukokoro go meet hmm daughter age mate / classmate date

Nah why I talk say he's a shameless man. Even if he wan knack Gen Z babe, it shouldn't be with his daughter friend

DMerciful:
What is wrong with breakup? Yorubas and we Igbos should not be in the same country else it'll never work

Yoruba is not forcing any ethnic group to be part of Nigeria. Anybody that wants to leave should make the move.

A military take over will lead to the collapse of Nigeria

A good news. More of this kind of news is needed

Nova01:
very shameless man including his wife defending a nonentity who didn't even care about the child he fathered

I thought he said he found out the kid is not his after conducting a DNA?

mrvitalis:
Are the mutually exclusive?

This how your brain work on a normal day?

Is there ever a time Obi promised to work towards the disintegration of Nigeria? You're supporting a politician who has no plans to split Nigeria but you're yearning t

Princedapace:
The US does not commit the type of frauds we commit here in the name of democracy.

o

You're just talking off point. And I don't believe you ever lived in the USA. You would have known people don't speak anyhow in the USA if you truly lived there. I left the USA in September, I'm now somewhere in Europe, I'm coming to Nigeria in January or February.

I've seen a white man getting arrested for calling a black man a "nigger" in the USA.

mrvitalis:
Do I support IPOB absolutely no

Do I understand them absolutely yes

I want an Igbo only Biafra and I believe in political angle even if violence is an option then it must be lead by our political leaders

Nigeria can't work


They didnt jail kanu because he is a terrorist
They called him a terroist so they would jail/kill him

You want Biafra, but you're busy supporting politicians like Obi

Princedapace:
Nothing is wrong with his statements, AMericans make worse comments sef.

In the USA, if you ask for military to take over, you will find yourself in trouble. I've you even being to the USA before?

chiagozien:
Double check what when they are paid by government to paint ipob and Mazi Nnamdi Kanu black.





Pay Nigeria Media well and they will report the goodness of devil ~Mazi Nnamdi Kanu 2012

So Arise news is now working for the zoo government?

gidgiddy:
One of the many examples of how they try to incriminate IPOB by falsely blaming the group for any death in the South-East

So Arise news is now working for the zoo government?

When I said Wike and his loyalist to move to the APC after they were suspended, some miscreants were saying shit. Makinde and Bala loyalists are in charge of the PDP. Wike and Anyanwu are just wasting thier time

frugal:
There’s no such thing as ‘abusing freedom of speech’. It’s either you have freedom of speech or you don’t.

There's something called "abusing freedom of speech". It's one of the reason Nnamdi Kanu is presently locked up at the Sokoto prison.

An igbo guy living in Rivers state abused freedom of speech by calling on the military to take over and he's presently held by the DSS. There's freedom of speech does not mean we should start talking anyhow

mrvitalis:
Know
Why haven't democracies solved the problem in over 26 years?

Ask your lawmakers
