"It is not too much to ask."

In a related development, some youths in Enugu are cleaning every part of the state to create awareness for Obi ahead of the 2023 presidential election.

The supporters of the Labour Party candidate are also sharing fliers of Obi and educating residents on the need to vote right in 2023.

Moh247:
You still never ready to learn work you must swallow your pride and ask Jagaban of borgu

Stop derailing threads on Nairaland. I know your job is difficult but you can do better.

ElSudani:
What achievements are in Obi's past that makes you think he can defeat Tinubu in any election?
Obi is not electable. He failed in Anambra.

If you don't reject the harculean task APC give you, you may end up in psychiatric hospital before 2023. It is clear that you are having mental breakdown already.

ElSudani:
That is handy.

2023: Pertinent Questions For Tinubu's Surpporters

1. Can Tinubu Win Peter Obi In The South?

2. Can Tinubu win Atiku in the North?

3. Can Tinubu get block votes in SW?

Put APC failure, Atiku, Obi effect and muslim-terrorist ticket into consideration. In 2019 election, APC lead PDP with just 260k in SW.

If you can be sincere with these questions, you would know why Tinubu is going to come a distant third in next year presidential election.

iLoveYouToo:
Everything thing Tinubu does is wrong until Obi does it. I'm referring to traveling and campaigning abroad. It's my opinion air yours

Tinubu is a PLACEHOLDER for Gov Shettima, the earlier you people realize this, the better.

Most of the people pushing escoBAT do not know there's an agenda to just install him by fire by force, and when he is tired and sick before 2 years, Shettima will be sworn-in as President and more Kabiru Sokoto will be hiding in his house.

Even Yaradua was way stronger than him before he became president.

Every Attempt To Convert Aso Rock To Retirement Home For The Elderly & Sick , We Cancel & Destroy in Jesus Name.

A sick country does not need a sick president.

Many people who are probably not resident ipinle Omoluabi erroneously believe that Tinubu would win Osun in 2023. How possible? This is far from the truth on ground here.

I from Osun State (Tinubu's state of Origin). I can confidently tell you that Asiwaju cannot win my state, Ipinle Omoluabi. The mood of the people here towards Tinubu is not encouraging at all. As a matter of fact, he is one of the reasons why we voted out his cousin (Governor Oyetola).

On one occasion in 2018, Tinubu arrogantly insulted our Obas with his wealth saying he is richer than Osun State. Most people believe Tinubu is collecting some percentage of Osun State monthly allocation through his cousin. I don't know of other states in Oduduwa Republic but I am sure that Tinubu would come third here.

I am a card carrying member of PDP but my vote is for Peter Obi come 2023. Majority of PDP and APC members are ready to vote for Labour Party during the presidential election. I belong to different whatsapp groups of APC, PDP and LP. Serious activities are going on in PDP and LP platforms but absolutely nothing is going on on APC WhatsApp platforms except sharing of links by local bloggers.

APC is completely in disarray in Osun State. No amount of money will revive them. By the time Governor Oyetola would hand over in November this year, even APC members will perform the trending 'Sai Mun Bata Wuta' ritual in Osun State.

Majority of Osun Christians and some muslims are going to vote for Peter Obi.

Tinubu has no shame. Very shameless old sick man.

I spit on Tinubu and his shameless surpporters.

In Major Crowdfunding, Nigerians In Diaspora Move To Raise $150m, N100bn For Obi’s Campaign

•Labour Party candidate pledges to cut cost of governance, commits to transparency, accountability

Obinna Chima
In a bid to bolster his chances in the 2023 presidential election, which holds 178 days from now, Nigerians in the Diaspora have formed groups of committees to launch crowdfunding initiatives for the presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP), Mr. Peter Obi.

They plan to unveil in the coming days a crowdfunding portal with a target to raise $150 million from Obi’s supporters in the diaspora and N100 billion from those in Nigeria, THISDAY has reliably gathered.

A dependable source close to one of Obi’s supporters leading the process, said yesterday they are targeting small amount in contributions to be gathered from supporters largely from the grassroots to help the LP set up more structures across the country and make the former Anambra State governor a formidable contender in the presidential race. The initiative is being driven by young enthusiastic Nigerians in the tech sector who are making waves and yearning for new leadership at the helm of affairs in the country. Some of whom have only recently come of voting age. “They are organising themselves into small committees and groups to contribute small amounts in a major effort to help Obi’s Campaign establish structure and presence around the country. Interestingly while some of their parents are either supporters of PDP or APC, they are rooting for Peter Obi,” a source involved in the discussion disclosed to THISDAY yesterday night.

The campaigns for the presidential election, which holds February 25, 2023, will officially commence on September 28, 2022.

Unlike 2019, when the race was essentially between All Progressives Congress (APC) and Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), LP has become a major factor in the coming presidential poll.

Obi, who was in California, yesterday, is currently on a foreign tour to meet to his supporters in Canada, Germany, London, Rome, and the United States, where it is expected he would raise a substantial amount of the funds needed for the election.

“With that amount of cash, he would be able to build structures for Labour Party across the country and become a formidable opponent in the 2023 election and a threat to other candidates,” the source said.

Crowdfunding is a financing method that raises money by soliciting small individual investments or contributions from a large number of people. Political crowdfunding is widely considered an acceptable medium for raising funding from grassroots supporters.

Crowdfunding, particularly online, speaks to much wider groups than a party’s usual support base, while minimising time and effort for both the party and donors. It also has the potential to enhance a sense of community between the party and its base.

People without large amounts of wealth are seldom asked to support political parties financially. But with the advent of crowdfunding, this has changed and supporters with relatively low financial strength are now seen as a huge resource for most parties, according to a report by Sweden-based International Institute for Democracy and Electoral Assistance (IDEA).

However, as with political party funding, generally, political parties that engage in crowdfunding have to take the legal framework into account.

Most countries have regulations for donations and related privacy and transparency issues. In many countries, parties are only required to report donations above a certain threshold, to encourage smaller donations, while allowing the monitoring of potentially risky larger donations in order to prevent money laundering, terrorism financing, as well as other illegal financial transactions. The funds are also subjected to taxation.

“The automated nature of crowdfunding can allow donors to divide donations into smaller amounts more easily, thus circumventing the reporting obligations that apply to donors (although this only applies to some countries),” the IDEA report stated.

The Labour Party presidential candidate also yesterday, said Nigerians in the diaspora could be effectively mobilised as true assets for the rapid development of the country, adding that the Nigerian diaspora can play a major role in helping the country transform its education sector.

Obi, in a series of Tweets from California, United States, where he attended a forum with the theme, “The Role of the Nigerian Diaspora in Civic Leadership in Nigeria,” noted that the diaspora community could help Nigeria set up and administer endowment funds in the Nigerian universities.

He said endowments could also be used to provide support for students to go on exchange programmes that add value to their skills and motivation as well as support faculty research as well as research and development (R&), in general.

“Recently, Dr. Phillip Ozuah took a catalytic lead by donating $1 million to University of Ibadan,” he added.

Obi wrote, “Nigeria diaspora remittances now augment and support education, promote entrepreneurship, and stimulate businesses and investments in healthcare, in addition to foreign remittances. Nigerians in the diaspora constitute the first line of representation and the first line of defense.

“They have been flying the national flag high, in contributing their quota towards the development of the country across various sectors.

“Diaspora remittances now outstrip foreign direct investment for most low and middle-income countries, Nigeria included. In most cases, such remittances now constitute three times the volume of Official Development Assistance (ODA) received.”

According to the LP candidate, beyond their renowned role of sending foreign remittances back home, the diaspora are increasingly critical in advancing technology and skill transfer, strengthening democracy, opening up global supply chains, trade and foreign direct investment, education and research, as well as healthcare.

Obi also stated, “Diaspora communities constitute an integral part and, indeed, a critical mass of the development trajectory of their respective home countries. In that context, diaspora communities are increasingly part of the foreign relations architecture. They now serve as informal ambassadors and help with in advancing development in their home countries.”

Obi urged Nigerians in the diaspora not to despair or become weary in contributing their quota towards nation-building, despite the present state of insecurity in the country and parlous economy.

He pledged that his administration, if elected, would have zero tolerance for corruption and cut cost of governance.

According to him, “Our total commitment to transparency and accountability in government business is the only credible way to achieve limited to zero corruption.

“Africa will remain the centrepiece of our foreign policy. We will improve Nigeria’s diplomatic sphere of influence via peacekeeping, trade, and investment initiatives. We will pursue aggressively modalities for raising the national Internet penetration, as well as increase contribution of ICT to overall economic growth to aid national development.

“We intend to lay special emphasis on critical infrastructure, especially power, to ensure a clear measurable increase of 200 per cent of today’s generation, transmission and distribution within the shortest time possible through public private partnership.

“We will pursue intangible assets of good governance, rule of law, security of lives and properties, through an aggressive increase in personnel and equipment and inclusive training of operatives in our security agencies.

“We will emphasise patriotism, national interest, and national morale, quality of government, political will and character, which are all complimentary to the other assets. We will ensure that we have these assets in place and stress asset optimisation.

“Thinking through 2023 and beyond, we must think seriously about a leadership that is imbued with competence, capacity, credibility and commitment. The 4 Cs will be required to turn Nigeria around. Patriotism cannot be imposed; just like respect, it must be earned through dedication, responsiveness, active engagement, orientation, and prioritising of Nigerians in diaspora. The ripple effect will be rapid and will rub off positively on the country’s economy.”

Obi told his audience that they had the network and numbers to negotiate the priorities of the government, especially during the election period.

He stated, “You should be able to place pressing issues on the agenda of the candidates and, subsequently, on the front burners for new government that will be formed.

“Besides voting, a citizen’s most coveted role is holding an elected government accountable. With your education, exposure and understanding of government responsibilities in your host country, and collective leverage, in the New Nigeria we seek, we must think out of the box and at times, disruptively. As government and as Nigerians in diaspora, we must henceforth contemplate those global best practices that will confer comparative advantage on us, and replicate known successes that can move Nigeria from consumption to production.

“Nigerians in the diaspora, when effectively engaged, can act as important ‘trade ambassadors’ and ‘negotiators’ for the country, especially at the level of attracting small-scale boutique businesses. No country thrives economically merely by exporting its raw materials and importing virtually everything. Such a disposition weakens our economic base and employment capabilities.

“Opportunities also abound for proactive collaboration between the diaspora community and the federal and state governments in expanding healthcare delivery; improving the quality of our healthcare system as well as ensuring skill transfers to locally-based practitioners.”

You Have Made A Very Big Mistake – Bwala Schools Tinubu On Lalong And Keyamo Appointments

Justina Otio

The presidential campaign spokesman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Bwala Daniel has said that the All Progressive Congress (APC) flagbearer, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu made a mistake in appointing Simon Lalong and Festus Keyamo as the Director-General and spokesman of his campaign. Bwala stated this on Monday while speaking during an interview with TVC News.

He insisted that the APC chieftains do not truly support their principal. He explained that Lalong and Keyamo during the APC primaries were not in support of Tinubu. Bwala argued that the APC flag bearer should have chosen those who support and believe in him.

He said, “Personally I believe Asiwaju made a big mistake by allowing gov Lalong and Festus Keyamo to be DG and Spokesperson and I will tell you why. They did not believe in him and I still believe that they do not believe in him, because while we were in primaries they were not in supporting him, they were supporting a candidate other than him. Asiwaju ought to have appointed people who were loyal to him, but he has carried people who do not believe in him.”

Is Jonathan no longer corrupt and clueless? There is no limit to what desperation and greed for power can do. Tinubu and his hired urchins have no iota of shame. I am ashamed of their shame.

Does Wike and Jonathan have more than one vote each? No! Can Wike and Jonathan order Nigerians who to vote for? No! Is Tinubu normal mentally at all?
No!

...Says Christians are being relegated
...Urges unity against common enemy
...Says country need Godfearing president in 2023

By Idibia Gabriel, Kaduna

The Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) is complaining that Christians are being segregated in the scheme of things ahead of the 2023 general elections.

CAN President, Daniel Okoh made the statement when he spoke on Sunday in Anambra at the 75th birthday celebration of the General Overseer of Grace of God International, Paul Nwachukwu.

Okoh, in a statement made available to journalists in Kaduna Monday, charged church heads and faithful to show more interest in the processes that lead to emergence of those who occupy positions of authority.

He noted that Nigeria needs a God-fearing president in 2023, he advised Christians nationwide collaborate in order to be a force in choosing office holders.

The CAN leader stressed that it had gotten to the point where the people have realised they have a common enemy.

“To tackle the enemy, we must make sure we break down the walls of division.

“We must come together in unity, close ranks as a united force and make the necessary changes in our country,” Sun quoted him saying.

Okoh told pastors to stop concentrating on the pulpit and encourage their congregants to be part of the electoral process.

“If we really want to serve God and represent His purpose in this country, then Christians must get involved.

“It is time to get the righteous people into the political positions to bring the change Nigeria desires”, the President added.

From being a zombie to being a BATstard. Redemption is far from you.

ImperialYoruba:
Yeah, until Shettima show up to give answer to same question, then you go see obi's dullness.

So Shetima the Boko-Haram commander is the presidential candidate of APC? So you know that sick Tinubu is a mere place holder for Shetima? Can you live under terrorists government like that of Afghanistan?

Moh247:


Good one and good luck

Election no be fight so no need for insults

If having military reserve personel or eating our local stapples is a crime vote for Obi that imports everything in his supper market and invest in his family business



.

Why can't he share his good ideas with Buhari in the past seven years? Tinubu is corrupt but that is not my problem. My problem with his is that he is old and sick and running with Boko-Haram terrorists commander. Woe unto a nation whose ruler is an Islamic terrorist.

PandoraObi:
Did Tinubu steal your family's possession or he is responsible for your frustration

Tinubu is among the reasons why you can't live without eating crumbs that fall from politician's table. This is not how your counterparts from other countries are living. May you regain back your senses before it is too late.

Words Of Encouragement To The Obi-dient Fellows

Let's keep the spirit and hope alive, there's no limits to how far we can keep engaging and influencing until we achieve our goal of a better country. I want to appeal to us that, let's keep engaging, let's keep influencing and let us keep believing in every area we all have our influences i.e among peers, in our offices, in churches, in mosques, in taxes, on our roads, in our business associations, e.t.c.

To the youths who believe come 2023, it is business as usual let me tell you, the highest these evil politicians can give you to sell your conscience is 50k for your suffering of 4 to 8 years. Who says your vote dont count, hence they want to buy?

Come 2023, dont sell vote. Rather vote credibility, equity and fairness, vote who can lift you from poverty not the one boasting to feed you with cassava, garri, and ewa because we all worth much more than that. It's PO-smile come 2023 to change the narratives of bad governance in the history of our dear country.

A new Nigeria under H.E is possible. Vote wisely.

On the eve of 2019 presidential election, bullion vans were sited entering Jagaban's house and a crowd of people waiting for the share of the national cake. Now that Asiwaju himself is contesting, how many bullion vans do you think he would release for Nigerians to enjoy?

During the recently concluded Osun State Election, APC distributed #1.2m for each polling unit and #2m per ward. Now that Tinubu himself is contesting and this is only chance because of old age and mental health challenge, we should be expecting about #10m per polling unit. What do you think?

It should be in local languages.

North4Obi23:
What's right from a man whose every action is evil and corrupt? Tinubu's life is fraud from head to toe and even the smallest requirement, primary school certificate, name of school or schoolmates can't be mentioned. How can we trust such a man? How can you hate Nigeria to the extent of wishing Nigerians a walking corpse like Tinubu? This is evil from you to Nigerians. So no to BATing.

Tinubu denied his lineage and primary school because of politics. Shame on him and his surpporters.

Hoelujohn:
The plan of APC is to use 175billion on election day. They have budgeted 1million naira per polling unit and we have a total of about 175k polling units in Nigeria
The target is to get minimum of 100 votes per polling unit. With that , they will get 17 million votes.

APC paid #1.2m per polling unit in the just concluded Osun election. People collected their money but voted PDP. We will collect their money in 2023 and vote for LP.

Believe Tinubu at your own peril.
