If you know the number of Igbo's living in kano, Lagos, Oyo, sokoto, yola, nassarawa, rivers your mind go jump....here's the shock 90% of them are voting this time ...obi will be so relaxed because nobody go follow am drag him Territory's but he go drag people own ...beast

How many of them compare to the native? Are they up to 10% of the population? Make una dey reason well sometimes. If Igbos are uo to 25% of each state, they will easily have the highest population in Nigeria. Is it not same region that goes home for census? Instead of them to be counted where they live.

On a side note, Nigeria is bleeped. Majority travel hometown for census but live in another region to use the resources allocated there. After considering all things, I believe PDP will win. Atiku just need to reconcile with Wike and others.

orazx:
Even at that, so you think Everyone in SW will vote for Tinubu? Lol, I am from the SW and people around me are voting for LP.

Don’t forget also that the Igbos are everywhere in the SW I mean every corner corner.

Unless your Thug lord will pour out his dogs to stop the igbos from voting their prefer candidate.

Where in SW are you? Apart from Lagos where LP can get 10%, LP will not get 10% anywhere. How many people around you to make you conclude that they are voting for LP? Apart from Lagos social media people, tell me where in SW that LP is strong compare to APC or PDP? Igbos are everywhere, question how many of them? Are they up to 10% of each town in SW? Are all of them voting for LP? PDP and APC will share 90% of the votes in SW and also in all Northern regions.

Trollronaldo:
Well, per state, SW seem to be at a disadvantage if you remove a cosmopolitan Lagos.
SE actually recorded same figures as other 5 southwest states.

The figure seems to Favour Peter Obi more than any other candidate based on his support base in SE and SS and the amount of votes in can get in SW and NC.

E go shock you. LP can't have 10% in any SW states apart from Lagos. It will shared by PDP and APC. While PDP will take votes from SS and SE. Obi will not win any state in SS. North is the playing field. I don't know how this will pan out in the North for APC. I will say advantage PDP. LP is known factor outside of SE and 10% of Lagos. You guys will learn that structure or party size is a factor in election.

Chiefwhip001:
Way to go, not one failed tribalistic musician,
All reasonable and sane Nigerian will vote for peter obi, the best choice.

What makes PSquare right and Brymo (apart from his stupid rants) wrong to support his candidate? What makes Obi, who was part of PDP until few months ago and says his ideology is not different from Atiku, better than others especially Atiku? Is it safe to conclude that Peter is not different from Brymo, supporting Obi based on his ethnicity but hiding under the right person for Nigeria?

gimakon2:
You Sideline them and treat them like idiots, You wont let them have a fair share of Politics, and you quick to judge and bring Genocide to them. This is what is prompting these uprisings..
Treat them well or give them their republic, you just have to choose one.

Nonesense. A fair share of politics? Nigeria is PDP that should have ensure the Igbo become the presidential flag bearer? Is it Nigerians that asked their leaders to play a second fiddle to the North, without having an agreement to support them during their own time? Zik preferred to join forces with the North. Ekwueme did the same by joining forces with Shagari to become the VP but never negotiated their own clear plan. Is it Nigerians that asked the SE to only see PDP as the only party instead of them to be independent and integrate with other parties? Oh! you expect APC to present an Igbo person when the region voted against the party. The PDP you always vote for, it was Wike your fellow SS that rendered Obi useless in PDP.

Igbos always claim to be independent. The truth is they are not. They all follow one leader blindly. Someone will sell hatred to them and they are quick to take it. Okorocha and Uzor are the only ones bridging the gap but the igbos call them sell out. How can you win in Isolation?

Cosmatikka:
The insecurity and killings in SE today is still part of the marginalisation we've been talking about.

For those who don't know history, when Philip Effiong led the Biafran troup to surrender to Nigeria, supervises by Obasanjo, he said that if the injustice that led to the war continues, the children and grandchildren of the soldiers will one day rise to pick up arms again. That's what happened with IPOB.

When IPOB started, the boys were only armed with flags. Buhari ordered his soldiers to humiliate and kill them, instead of dialouging with them.

When the boys were pushed to the wall, they learnt to pick arms to fight back, then started the killing of security personnel.

Now instead of the coward security ppl to fight back man to man, they go about killing innocent civilians and sacking towns to avenge their members killed.

Recently the town of Okigwe and Ihube were burnt down for a female military personnel abducted, which everyone including myself condemned here.

But another military personnel of the same rank has been kidnapped in the north 2days ago, we're yet to hear of any town sacked, or the innocent residents doing frog jump.

The Buhari FG has done all these to give Igbos and IPOB a bad name in order to destabilise the region.

In 4months, he will be out, and Nigerians will have another leader who can turn fortunes around for SE region, and Nigeria in general.

People like you throw words around. Instead of using the word marginalization, can you list how SE is being marginalized?

And for one, SE always marginalized themselves, they see things from tribal point, example is how they only vote for PDP, believing any other major party is evil. But other regions embraced all parties. You cried of marginalization but you are welcome in all parts of Nigeria, however, you hardly sell your land to other ethnicities. Reminds me Lionheart (Genevieve movie) that I watched with bunch of Igbo families. They got mad when the Hausa guy eventually married Genevieve. They were shouting this is nonsense, how can an Hausa Fulani get married to Igbo girl. I asked what's wrong in that. They were too angry to answer my question.


Please list what makes you think SE is marginalized Instead of using the blanket word, marginalization.



The Ilajes (oil producing region of Ondo state) have not had electricity for a little over 20 years. While the other tribes in the region (the Ikales, Apoi etc) have not had electricity for 10 years. The whole of Southern Ondo state had been neglected. I'm sure other regions have something to say. So please list what makes SE different? Thanks.

onuman:
Their assets published or not, if the most qualified, Peter Obi does not win the next presidential election because of ethno-religious bigots in Nigeria, Atiku Abubakar shall succeed President Buhari, because no saner incumbent president of a country can hand over his/her country to an old, sickly and ex-drug trafficking baron who forfeited $460000 drug trafficking money to the US government.
Nigeria shall automatically become a pariah state if the president hands the country over to an ex-drug trafficking lord.
For nearly 8 years, Tinubu never contested any elective post in APC for fear of the APC big wigs that APC would be seen as a party of drug trafficking barons. APC rather gave Tinubu a vague title of Party Leader.
Nigeria must be good.

I don't know if it is sheer stupidity or hereditary foolishness that makes you to write this. Only a foolish person will think Obi has a chance and it has nothing to do with ethno-religious bigotry. If anything your post is smeared with bigotry. It is only in Nigeria that you think a small party will beat a big one. Even for APC to beat PDP, ACN and CPC had to merge. The election is between PDP and APC. Unfortunately, Obi will divide PDP votes in SE and SS. LP is weak outside of those 2 regions. Since when did Nigerians stop voting for thieves, their oppressors, 419s, drug dealers, pen robbers, ritualists, touts, touts godfathers etc or since when did they stop celebrating those calibers of people? Come February, either Atiku or Tinubu will become your president, any other thing is bunkum and balderdash.

loydsis:
Look at how this country have deteriorated under APCs watch,and another daft drug sipping idiot is coming to tell Nigerians how he will fix the country after So many years of mismanagement,I spit on anyone that vote for APC.

Na today Hausa and Fulani dey fight?

Ayomide002:
Well, people buy tickets. I’ve lived in Moscow, Russia, the transport was mostly paid by card (cash was useless, I didn’t even have cash for almost 6months), their electrobus which is found everywhere only uses card and nobody checks. But, some buses still take some small small routes and they accept cash (you’ll be handed change).

I currently live in one of the countries you listed above and visited another one of them, I paid with cash and received change

But, nobody dey call passenger ooo, if you no pay self, you might be fortunate not to be caught 99% of the time.

He never said people don't buy ticket Mr. I've lived in Moscow. Of course we know people buy ticket or have a bus pass or use token. He replied to that ignorant person that they do collect cash but it has to be an exact fee else you lose your change. And the bone of contention here is that no conductor also they do take cash but has to be exact.

Only few people have critical thinking in Nigeria. We are so sentimental and tribalistic. The bone of contention is the Innoson sell sub par cars. Have you checked the guy is saying the truth? Did he buy innoson car? I don't know what APC or Emilokan got to do with this. So many foolish people here and also the writer and posters are foolish. Whoever allow this worthless unthoughtful article here is a fool.

90% of Nigerians don't say the truth when it seems to favour them, reason I keep saying Nigeria will never get better. Sowore is right here. These 3 candidates represent PDP, they PDP. If Obi or Kwankwanso shd win, they will move to PDP being that they are PDP members. Yet we want something fresh.

Also so many foolish people here asking Sowore to go start from his state that he has no experience. With the experience of our past leaders both at state and federal level even at a local level, what have they achieved? If we based it on their past performances, none of them is fit to be a local govt chairman.

Also Mandela who is believed to be one of the greatest leaders had no experience before he became the president of SA. Same with Trump, he became the president of a country at least 10 times bigger than Naija.

Good for AriseTv. Tinubu has shown them they they can't be taken seriously. Why was Sowore not invited? Why was the SDP man not invited? Sowore and the SDP man are very brilliant. Why not enjoin them with the "top 4"?

haleeberry:
Yeeepa! So letter bomb is still in existence? Its been a very long time I heard anything about it, that shit was Abacha or Dele something signature then

You just wanna feel among. How is Abacha relates to letter bomb. You are a kid, don't pretend to know about the letter bomb thing in Naija.

When will Obi respond to Sowore's challenge?

Nice one. I hope Labour Party will also grant Sowore his debate challenge too.

All of them are recycled politicians, jumping from one party to another including Obi. None of them is better than the other.

rolams:
Makinde is the most stupid of all. Your fellow brother?

Are they fighting Ayu, like this?

You and those that applauded your message are stupid idiot. Your fellow brother? How are they brothers? Born by same parents or have same family names? Tribalism is in your brain. This is about political differences nothing tribal here. But idiots like you have Tribalism entrenched in their blood.

Delete the Banga soup but retain the fish. Banga is just raw palm oil with high cholesterol.

Stupidity of many Nigerians is why Naija can't get better. Instead of saying the truth and shame the devil, they will rather blame Buhari. If you want a better Naija, you question your Gov, Senators, House of reps and assembly members on what they do with allocation gotten from the federal. No, they would rather blame the president because he's an easy target. Though the president has been woeful so are your governors and reps.

Soludo raised some some assertive remarks on the person of Obi in his rejoinder to the obedient attacks on his person. Instead of the Obidient and the rest of Nigeria throwing emotional attacks on Soludo accusing of being jealous, I will rather we ask the following question to know the veracity of his remarks.

The questions we should be asking from Soludo's rejoinder are:

1. Is it true the $12m Obi invested is worth $3m?
2. Is it true that Obi put govt money in the name of investment in a company where his family is a shareholder?
3. Is true Obi saved money in the presence of decaying infrastructure like lack of roof on school buildings, bad road, lack of proper hospital etc?
4. Is it true Ngige's constructed roads are still standing while Obi's has been washed away?
5. Is it true poverty skyrocketed during Obi( when oil was at its peak) and went down during Obiano?
6. Is Soludo lying or Obi lied to us?

Instead of attacking Soludo, y'all need to ask the following questions to see who is lying between Obi and Soludo:

1. Is it true the $12m Obi invested is worth $3m?
2. Is it true that Obi put govt money in the name of investment in a company where his family is a shareholder?
3. Is true Obi saved money in the presence of decaying infrastructure like lack of roof on school buildings, bad road, lack of proper hospital etc?
4. Is it true Ngige's constructed roads are still standing while Obi's has been washed away?
5. Is it true poverty skyrocketed during Obi( when oil was at its peak) and went down during Obiano?
6. Is Soludo lying or Obi lied to us?

VERDA:
All supporters lash out at people who criticise their presidential candidates, that Obi's base are mostly youths who are very active on social media hence their loudness should not make some people become hypocrites.

Some of Una insult Jonathan pass this one in 2014 so let's shut up abeg and stop acting like supporters of other presidential candidates are saints...

He hardly responds to any attacks on him yet you all keep blaming him for actions of a few of his supporters as if he is supposed to gag them.

I am over 70% sure your a Tinubu supporter, I might be wrong and 110% sure you support one of the candidates...

If this came from a neutral person it might have made sense

You are a proper idiot. Which president haven't been abused in Nigeria? The abuse on Buhari is even times 10 of Jonathan? From OBJ to Shagari. Is Jonathan different.

If you are not stupid and biased, we are talking about Obi supporters known as Obidient abusing and bullying anyone that disagree with Obi. Learn to understand bone of contention and not bring irrelevant things here.

phorget:
Obiano was a two term governor after Obi, dis Obiano also noticed such siphoning.

You must be a mumu or you follow blindly, Obi himself admitted when he was caught during the last presidential election.

RomanGreen:
Don't mind the idio.t, no second term for him...him eye go clear soon

At least it will be on record that he's a former gov of Anambra. And people will surely vote for him should perform beyond expectations. So stop your stupidity mentality of not accepting the truth.

IamtheTruth1:
A man who decides to sell his brother, should remember that the buyer won't trust him!


You no talk about Obiano way you go beg EFCC for oh!.

World people!

The questions you should be asking are:
1. Is it true the $12m Obi invested is worth $3m?
2. Is it true that Obi put govt money in the name of investment in a company where his family is a shareholder?
3. Is true Obi saved money in the presence of decaying infrastructure like lack of roof on school buildings, bad road, lack of proper hospital etc?
4. Is it true Ngige's constructed roads are still standing while Obi's has been washed away?
5. Is it true poverty skyrocketed during Obi( when oil was at its peak) and went down during Obiano?
6. Is Soludo lying or Obi lied to us?

Truth is either APC or PDP will win. But Obi supporters are so toxic that they don't see the truth. And Obi is even PDP, so how I don't know how he can become the messiah. Instead of you to fight for the election to be cancelled. Ask for new constitution, Atiku, Tinubu and even Obi (the corrupt investment) should not even contest in sane society.

AcuraZDX:
In all these epistle of John, no corruption or Mismanagement of fund was mentioned..

Soludo move on from the defeat of 2010.

Oluwole Professor

Either you and those that applauded your message are illiterate or you guys just lack comprehension. Read again about putting money where one is a shareholder in the name of investment. And that's not corruption?

izubext007:
There is no error contesting against that thief. Nal just inferiority complex dey do you.

You are an example of the saying that to hide a vital info from a Blackman, put it inside a book because he would never read it.

OsunOriginal:
The lecturer has forgotten how he became the AG of Lagos state and VP of Nigeria. The same man who refuses to show appreciation to his benefactor on earth is on the pulpit talking about God/Lord/Jesus... He has a few more months to go and he won't feature again in our national political discussions.

You are an idiot. Osinbajo never begged for a position. He got there because he was good with his work. He qas recognized through his job. Why not attribute his ascendancy to Bola Ige who was the first to appoint him. There's a difference between somebody begging for a position and someone that was called because they believe he would make the government look good. Osinbanjo fought OBJ to standstill that OBJ was ready to hire him but chose to be loyal to Tinubu. What else do you want from him?

Nwaetche:
Did you watch and listen to the video?

I watched, It seemed that Osinbajo left out BAT in his speech as had to be reminded about BAT presence. So to safe face, he apologised and mentioned him. This shows that the VP is still bitter about the APC presidential primary contest where he was humiliated by BAT deep pocket.
There is absolutely nothing like “blood is thicker than water” or loyalty here. The VP would have said the same thing to any prominent person be it Obi or Atiku.

Most of you just talk for talking sake. He's paying Asiwaju back in his coin. Tinubu did same to him when he, Tinubu, won the race. I guess he had been waiting for his own opportunity to get back at Tinubu.

CoronaVirusRelo:


Osinbanjo can deceive everybody but cannot deceive my highly esteemed self. In as much as I accord him with utmost respect, and still appreciated his political tactics with His Excellence, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, I would have appreciated his silence. We know!

Osinbanjo was working for Tinubu is the last APC gubernatorial election. Their was no way the accord between both could have gone wrong due to power tussle. Osinbanjo is a loyal and trustworthy technocrat, that will never oppose the demigod in like of Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu

You are beyond daft. Why would Osinbajo divide Tinubu's votes (they from the same region) in the name of working for him? Is that the way they work for people in your village?
