PoliticsRe: Peter Obi Already In The Lead In Lagos State by jackpot(f):
It is obvious that Lagos is an elite city; the elite's vote has to go to Obi, just like it is in Abuja where Obi is expected to win with landslide. APC can expect their bulk votes elsewhere from the uninformed and the hinterlands. It is understandable.

I also like to use this opportunity to thank the elite Yoruba that ignored tribalism to vote Obi. Lets put tribalism and fear of the swelling population of Igbos/South South in Lagos aside, we know that Obi is actually better to do the job. Actually, he is a simple man, in the mould of Jonathan but more financially prudent. We can also turn on him and vote him out after 4 years if he doesn't deliver.

If you want Lagos to be less enticing to the Igbos and the South/South, then expand the sea ports at Akwa Ibom, Cross River and Rivers, so that large vessels can bring goods there. You don't want to build it because them leaving to South South for business will affect your IGR. Yet, you are always disenfranchising them; it is not fair to them. We are blessed as a diverse nation. The Igbos/SS are good in business, the Yorubas are good in education and the Hausas/Fulanis are good in agriculture and politics. It should be our source of strength, instead of division. This election shows Nigerians that Igbos love Nigeria but wants to be treated right in it. It also shows that Nigerians also love the Igbos, because some Northerners and Edos/SS voted Peter Obi massively.

A Yoruba friend and Lagos indigene was lamenting that Kano overtook Lagos during census because a good number of the South South and the Igbos leave for their homelands during census instead of staying to swell Lagos population. Why won't they when you always make them feel unwelcomed?

Nigeria is for all of us and a lot of us do not like the ways the Igbos are being marginalized.

Also, why can't we forget about who owns Lagos (we know it is in the Yoruba territory) and work on making it better? Igbos/SS are stakeholders, just like other Northerners in Lagos.

Nigeria is really bleeding, including its economy. My fear with Tinubu winning is that ballot box snatching and thuggery will become the order of the day throughout the whole Nigeria. You can imagine a sitting APC governor Yahaya Bello destroying tarred roads in his opponents stronghold a day to the election. These and many more is what is expected in Tinubu's presidency. It is actually VERY SCARY to imagine.

NIGERIANS, WE MUST NOT MISS PETER OBI!!!
PoliticsRe: Tinubu Floors Atiku, Peter Obi In 3 LGAs In Rivers by jackpot(f): 4:23am On Feb 27, 2023
The word FLOORS is plain insulting. You should have said Wike/Tinubu Rigged out LP (Obi) in 3 Local Government in Rivers. We all saw what happened. Wike and his thugs snatching ballot boxes and rewriting results.

PoliticsRe: 2023: Nairaland Latest Poll For Atiku, Kwankwaso, Peter Obi And Tinubu (Photos) by jackpot(f):
How the poll stands (in percentages):

ATIKU ABUBAKAR (PDP) = 5.1-5.2%
BOLA TINUBU (APC) = 13.7 - 13.8%
PETER OBI (LP) = 77.3 - 77.4%
RABIU KWANKWASO (NNPP) = 3.7 - 3.8%

This is a huge win for Peter Obi (LP). Vote LP for the Nigeria of our dream. I am an Anambrarian. Peter Obi was our best governor till date, and is well-loved by Anambrarians. He revolutionized our education system, made Anambra State very secure, donated a lot of equipments to the Nigerian Police and the Military, etc. He virtually touched our lives in so many positive ways.

Mark it somewhere, Peter Obi (LP) will above 95% of votes cast for Presidential election in Anambra. I predict him to win the Presidential Election in Nigeria overall in the first ballot. From our Nairaland Poll and the gap between the opponents and basic knowledge of statistics, PDAPC will have to buy more than 10 million votes for Peter Obi not to win.

FarahAideed:
Many sub level thinkers won't be able to process what I am about to say but I will try.

There is nothing like vote buying , it's all a ruse , votes can only be won and whatever way a voters decides for his vote to be won is that voters concern as long as his process doesn't disenfranchise another voter .. There is a reason why the constitution says you must be a biological adult of 18 before you can vote this is to assure you have a biologically developed thought process that can make you make the best choices for you as to how you want your your vote to be won .
Voter A might want his vote to be won for some immediate gains as guided by his reality while voter B might opt for his votes to be won by way of religion or tribal affiliations , Voter C might opt for his vote to be won for just simple personal reasons like the candidate is his neighbor and voter D might want his vote to be won on the basis of some long term goals like a better society for his kids ..What ever path a voter decides to use to allow his vote to be win is legitimately valid as far as he doesn't disenfranchise another voter in the process...If someone says he will vote for the candidate that can give him immediate 5000 naira vote to solve immediate reality issues like hunger who are you to describe him as a vote seller or describe his own process as vote buying but you that is going for a candidate that is promising your kids cheaper vacation visa or a new bridge for your car to pass you say your own is the valid way to give vote ... People open your eyes there is nothing like vote buying in democracy

I fault the exam question on the following areas:
1. The lyrics of the music in Appendix 1 should have been in English to give non-Yoruba speakers a level playing ground with Yoruba speakers

2. Total marks obtainable was 60 marks. I thought NUC benchmark is 70 marks for Exam
