raumdeuter:
Kamala is joining by zoom in a conversation in hosted by 3 black women her own constituency. Not even a debate

Tinubu attended media chats

[color=royalblue]Na true, my chief.[/color]

Ellexy:
Was it not Tinubu that said he avoids social media because it gives him HBP. Somebody they hoarded like palliative so he won't face tough questions about his background and drug activities. Any debate against Obi or Atiku would have messed him up so bad, so they had to hoard him like they did Buhari.

[color=royalblue]Raumdeuter who defended Tinubu for avoiding debates, is asking why Kamala Harris avoided that of NABJ

Do we know what we are doing? Yeah Yeah

Itsrm:
For the very first time, I'm starting to follow American politics and I have to say I find it interesting. Both aspirants are intelligent, witty and are never ruffled.

Makes you wonder how anyone who has witnessed that level of conversation, debate and arguments between aspirants now turn around to wish Tinubu on his own country.

A40:
What will protest achieve? Not like anyone will resign. They're legally backed to run for 3 more years. That window has passed

Obi and anyone of Igbo stock will be very stupid to join or lead any protest. Nigerians must pay the full stupidity tax of voting a Feudalism merchant like Tinubu. Let the Northerners protest by themselves if they are so badly affected

Next elections people will hopefully be militant about ensuring the Tinubu is bundled out and after sufficient suffering you will chase with cutlass anyone who markets a candidate to you solely based on tribe and religion and not their actual plans

[color=royalblue]Eziokwu bu ndu!

As much as Akpabio sounded insensitive with his comment, he is right.

All they have to do is go and sleep and eat. After August 15, they resume from where they stopped.

The last best time to end bad governance was 2023, and Insha allah, O ti lo.

The next best time is 2027, and i know my people well well.

Nigeria is gone![/color]

The conversation was about the protest and how to forge ahead.

I am surprised to see Heroin and 1993[/color]

Omoapena:
America actually, he said 5years visiting but I doubt that

[color=royalblue]So, what is your plan, after the conference has ended?

You'll just walk into a restaurant and get employed?

The grass is not always green on the other side, especially when you migrate illegally.

If you don't have the mental strength and zeal to do anything and accept any outcome on this journey, it's better to stay back and plan oh.[/color]

[color=royalblue]Nihilistjnr

I am trying to reply you, but the conversation has moved past what we were talking about.

I no know where to begin[/color]

Omoapena:
Guys,

What's the consequences of getting, probably a visiting visa for conference meeting with the intention to japa on arrival...

[color=royalblue]Do you have plans after the conference ends?

The country matters too[/color]

[color=royalblue]But how is it possible that up till now, the Nigerian government cannot still arrest Simon Ekpa?

If a Nigerian in Nigeria claimed responsibility for the death of four police officers of another nation, I am sure that person would have been caught.

Ahn Ahn.

[color=royalblue]Obi shutting down the country is effectual Leadership?



It's okay.[/color]

Our Athletics federation continues to disgrace us every Olympics

Last Olympics they didn't complete the mandatory drugs tests, this time they are failing to register athletes

[color=royalblue]It's disgusting.

I used to be a fan of playing for your home country, but that is now shiiit.

nihilistjnr:
Obi was a tribal candidate imho but I'm not prepared to rehash old argument.

Opposition politics is dirty af. It's not that long ago we saw somebody literally try to kill Donald Trump at a rally.

The biggest problem with Nigeria is the system. Soldier come, Soldier go, but every leader dey thief. It's not like Nigeria has exclusive rights to host all expatriate demons. But when you have such a broken system, what else can you expect?

This is an opportunity for a candidate who truly detests the system to start playing his/her hand. The example I gave of announcing a shadow cabinet is a play for organic votes because theoretically you can't use those posts to reward your hypemen post election.

The reason I mentioned Obi is because Obidients spent so much of last year claiming he fit the required profile. How is it that on the cusp of a nationwide protest, his opportunity to sell his message to the millions of frustrated Nigerians, his own spokesman is literally quiting the party and announcing his lack of confidence in PO, whilst simultaneously being denounced as a mole by the party ? To make matters worse, Obi doesn't even agree with his party either

Brah it's a shambles.

That's why I always say Nigeria is a finished country. There's literally no hope.

[color=royalblue]Your suggestion would be perfect if there was actually just one voice from the people.

How come we have been seeing Obi and Atiku tackle Tinubu since last year, but the moment this protest was conceived, both of them went mute.

We have seen protesters protesting against the protesters; The same masses that are tired.

Our situation is complex, and i agree with you that there is no hope.

Luckily for all the presidential candidates, they are rich enough to flex till they die. The losers are all of us that queued under rain to vote.

Make everybody just hustle and take care of their future.

nihilistjnr:
This is the time where Peter Obi would be organising rallies and building his support base of he was really serious

This is going to be another pointless round of protests, that may lead some unfortunate acts of looting and violence.

The protest is pointless because even if Nigeria wasnt setup to fail from it's inception - which it was, Nigeria is also fully the victim of state capture.

A protest for better governance- yes, but a protest to whom? When has a thief ever agreed to stop stealing your shït because you asked nicely? Or not nicely sef.

The best chance (and it's a very minute one) that Nigerians have of achieving some form of change to the status quote, is the possibleemergence of an anti-establishment figure capitalising on the frustration of Nigerians to build his/her forces for a credible run at next election.

I personally don't believe Obi is such a person, but if he's half the guy obedient claim he is, then I'd expect to see him at the very least making plays to hijack these elections to make very specific pitches to the people. Why not issue a very detailed manifesto? Maybe even go as far as announcing a shadow cabinet with ministers to shadow all current ministries now, using publicly available figures and policy documents to announce to the people how they would do things better instead of Obi's usual quoting of gas-based statistics.

The atmosphere is ripe for true opposition politics to be played if there are players willing to play the game.

Instead, we're likely going to see more cruise, more vibes, and the births of a few more twatter shitfluencers.

Mehn abandon all hope, all ye who enter this useless country.

[color=royalblue]With the way there's tribal and religious colouration in every post, Obi, or any body wey put body for this protest go collect.

You would expect the crowd protesting on Thursday to vote out APC in 2027, but no. When that time reach, na another music these same people go sing.

Its better the protest just comes and goes, and hopefully, the people channel that anger into their thumbs during the next election[/color]

Thank you Mr izzou

On a serious note, I feel the continual detention of Kanu is unfair in all ramifications. This is why.
If kanu is released, it can calm already volatile atmosphere in some parts of the country and can change the narratives and provide the basis for political stability in Nigeria as a whole.
Having him released and bring him to the table will go a long way to change the mindset and ease the tension in the region
This is someone that controls the narrative of millions of people. Having dialogues and negotiations with him provide efficient solutions than this shenanigans with court up and down.

It might even surprise you that south east might go on " Marchfortinubu" on August 1st. If he is released.

[color=royalblue]So what happens to all what he had done? What if he has plans of violence under his sleeves, when he is released?

Or we should just forget about how this guy ran a radio station, and was dishing out hate and violent vibes day to day?

Na why i blame Buhari. If this matter had been addressed back then, the whole country would have moved on.

Now, you are even seeing him as a path to peace.

Lol [/color]

True, I'm supposed to be in Nkwerre on or before the 2nd but the way I'm looking at it, omo I go dodge o

[color=royalblue]I wan enter Abraka next week.

Still thinking if i should go.

I go customise two shirts; One for protest, and the other against it.

Depending on the group i meet on the way, i support[/color]

We have many idiots on this table sir. Ranging from Uboho, kanu and the rags up north. When it comes to those up north, What did they do? They swiftly packaged some grammar under the guise of Repentant Boko Haram and released them back to the society without any plan to monitor their movement and what have you. What do we have later? The same rags going back to their dens to continue from where they stopped.

Then we have the bigger thief that have little to no regards for our courts now trying to enforce the same court order? From the onset, I said it that if the immediate needs of the common man are not addressed, a case like this will continue to prop up.

Left to me, I will dissolve this contraption called Nigeria. The forced Marriage was never ordained to prosper not even in the foreseeable future.

[color=royalblue]Can you make your argument without a comparison?

I want you to try.

Just explain why he should be released[/color]

raumdeuter:
So if police stops you for overspeeding, your excuse will be that he didnt stop others overspeeding in front of you

[color=royalblue]Buhari actually made Kanu a hero.

For someone who was spreading hate and instigating violence, you would expect his case to be swift and fast.

But what did he do? He kept him in prison and adjournment became the mantra.

Now, the villain is the hero. Tinubu has entered, and has continued from where Buhari stopped.

I don't blame reccy for asking for his release. Very soon, history will be changed to make Kanu a man that fought for democracy. [/color]

raumdeuter:
Its protest, the same way you have the right to protest speak against anything, others have a right to protest to support of it

Same way some people want to block the rod, others have a right to open the road

No grievance nor opinion is superior

Like you said resolve all grievances at ballot box

[color=royalblue]Funny, but true.

Shegzdave:

[color=royalblue]I am very sure we will have two different protests on August 1st..

One group protesting against hunger

Another group protesting against those protesting against hunger

The moment i saw people protesting against a protest, i knew that APC strategy na sure odd.

Itsrm:
Parents like GloriousGbola with grown children have been warned.

[color=royalblue]The only and most impactful protest is the election day.

If you miss getting it right that day, forget it.

4 years is enough to reset anybody's brain, but there's something about that 2 Derica of rice they usually share during election period.

E go just make the people forget quick quick.[/color]

While I get the point you are making, she's not the only South African with parents who aren't southie representing SA in other capacities.

By their constitution, citizenship by birth is allowed.

[color=royalblue]Just replace the SA with Nigeria, and i am very sure we would be doing the exact same thing.

Heck, Let there be an Igbo pageant and a Yoruba lady is contesting for Miss Anambra. Fear no go let am contest sef.

Let her drop out. It is the wise thing to do!

The people she wants to represent do not want her.[/color]
