daywatcher:


If Tinubu cannot stand a chair will be provide for him seat and deliver his speech. On brain, competency and track record he is far ahead ahead.

And yet he has kept running away from all interviews and live programmes. The only few times he spoke in the recent past, he was talking about 50 million youth, agbado, cassava... You should feel ashamed supporting someone like that.

Which competency and track record are we talking about? Lagos has domestic debts worth nearly 800bn Naira despite claiming to be generating nearly 50bn monthly. Where is all the money going to?

Tinubu is stealing Lagos dry and you guys are praising him. Now you want to foist him on Nigeria to finish off whatever is left of the damage Buhari has done. God will never allow you people!

GoodLife4live:
stop fooling nigerians again...see , I Sabi una from that side... Igbo will never support a Yoruba candidate as far obi is on ballot..... Unna go put all apc failures on osinbajo and also call him a fake pastor....

We understand politics more than u guys over there.... We so much believes in TINUBU.... Because he has the charisma to lead a complex country like nigeria....he has done it before and he can do it more better now...

Are you really okay?
You guys have been celebrating Orji Uzor Kalu, Chimaroke Nnamani, Hope Uzodinma etc who are all core Tinubu supporters. Joe Igbokwe is almost a Yoruba man. Yesterday, an Anambra man named his son Tinubu. Despite all these, you turn around and say that Igbos will never support Yoruba as long as an Igbo is on the ballot.

Could you please mention one prominent Yoruba politician supporting Peter Obi, or which of them has ever supported any Igbo man for presidency?

haslaw:


Typical IPOB CANNIBALS and their DUMB&DAFT assumptions

1) I am not a southerner, so you insulting your fellow southern brothers is of no consequence to me.

2) Are you not too early for your BIAFLA or death MADNESS? Don't you think you should wait until after Peter Obi has been properly disgraced at elections before starting your BIAFLA agitations?

3) IIGBOS will never smell the presidency and the earlier you come to terms with that fact the better for you.

4) We know IIGBOS will continue their BIAFLA MADNESS after Peter Obi losses next year and we are fully ready. Who do anyhow go see anyhow.

Nonsense!!!

seunmsg:
I prefer the man who allegedly can’t hold a spoon to the man who will steal our common patrimony and put it into his family business and call it investment.

You mean the same man who has made Lagos indebted to the tune of almost 800bn Naira (in domestic debts alone) despite the state generating nearly 50bn Naira per month?

You're deliberately blind to the extent to which Tinubu has stolen Lagos silly. This is a man whose company pockets over 4bn of Lagos revenue monthly. That's more than the monthly IGR of many states in Nigeria.

You cannot be a Tinubu supporter and be sensible. The two are incompatible.

N3TRAL:


You've confirmed my conclusion.

Nigeria loses dollars to importation of refined petroleum products- a direct cause.

Your claim that Nigeria is "importing" petroleum because of corruption makes corruption a remote cause.

A direct cause ranks higher than a remote cause.

Our refineries are no longer functional not because of corruption alone. A government has no business running companies. The socialist/welfarist management of the defunct refineries is also a major reason for their collapse.

You don't know what you're saying.
A government has no business running companies? Have you heard of Saudi Aramco?
How come the government ran our refineries in the 60s and 70s and they were productive?

Yes, things work better when done by private organisations but it doesn't mean that a serious government cannot operate any company successfully. Corruption is the main reason why it appears so.

Corruption is the main reason why Nigeria spends billions on TAM and annual operations of the refineries and yet they produce nothing.

Corruption is also the reason why the amount of petroleum products claimed to be imported is far more than what is actually imported due to subsidy claims.

The biggest ministry in Nigeria is the Ministry of Corruption.

N3TRAL:


Importation ranks higher as a cause of our terrible exchange rate than corruption

Then imagine telling us we're free to export more!

Read bro!

Corruption is the reason why Nigeria is still importing petroleum products and has no functional refinery after nearly 24 years of return to democracy.

Importation of refined petroleum products is the biggest consumer of our Forex. Fix that problem and Nigeria's economy will improve.

How then do you say importation ranks higher than corruption as a cause of Nigeria's terrible exchange rate?

MuslimIgbo:
This is the legacy Obidient left. He indeed turned Anambra into Dubai

If only he has built a functional drainage system, flood won't be destroying their lives and properties now.

Yẹyẹ people

Oh my goodness! You're so daft, Jeez!
River Niger has overflowed its banks and flooded 6 local government areas and this man is talking about drainage. I'm so ashamed of you.

ganisucks:

APC is not contesting in 2023. ACN is the party contesting in 2023. And also you dont want to listen to a boy who failed to do due diligence in his own election. And when reality set in, in stead of accepting the reality, spent the entire week threatening fire and brimstone he couldn't create. Then at the end, settled down and ate his humble pie. That's the last person to listen to. The bloomberg poll is the most accurate, and even it is not accurate enough. Tinubu will only get 10% in the election.

The same boy that told us GEJ was going to be the party's flag bearer and bragged further by saying that not all moves are made on social media.

Dsalvo:


If Tinubu will not be Preside then who? Dubai candidate who cares more about Arabs than Nigerians?

Obi the consummate coward and weakling who'd make GEJ seem like Nelson Mandela and Che Guevara rolled into one?

Nigeria needs rescuing and she will not survive any other Presidency Than that of Tinubu. Take that to the bank. All serious Nigerians know that.

Yet Tinubu's running mate who may end of being president for a good part of their tenure boldly said on national TV "restructuring my foot!" That is the man you're banking on to restructure Nigeria.
Can't you see that you're deceiving yourself?

Let me also tell you that it is an absolute disregard of Nigerian Christians for Buhari (a Muslim) to complete 8 years tenure, hand over to Muslim President and VP for 8 years after which power returns to the Muslim North for another 8 years, giving a total of 24 uninterrupted Muslim rule. This is something Nigerian Christians cannot even dare. Tinubu will not win with that combination.

Dsalvo:


Bro, it was always predictable that IPOBians will put the entire nation off Obi, with their hateful antics, once election campaign formally began.

There is no line they will not cross out of hatred for others. To them this is not a mere election. It is civil war part 2 against other Nigerians they are ultra-desperate to win any which way and using any 'tool' at all.

One thing you can always trust an IPOBian to be is self-destructive. By end of November they would have finished Obi completely.

By November, it would have been clear to sensible Nigerians that Tinubu is no longer in the race.

Tinubuadvocate:
There is nothing like turn of southeast with this kind of statement 100 years to this time you people will not smell that seat.

But Tinubu can boldly say it is his turn and the turn of Yorubas, and you guys even use Emilokan as campaign slogan. Your hypocrisy stinks to the highest heavens.

Throwback:


He didn't do anything, yet other states came visiting to learn so much from the Tinubu government of Lagos State.

The first time I visited Lagos was in 1998. It was far ahead of every other state as at then, including Abuja. Ikeja, VI, Ikoyi and the whole Island etc were already well developed. All the mainland bridges were there. The ports and airports were already bubbling.
Lagos has been a mega city from way back long before Tinubu aspired to be governor. Why do you guys keep attributing all of Lagos to him? I find it hard to understand the mentality you guys possess.

baretalk:
These fools are obsessed with Tinubu

No, there's only one fool here and it's d person I quoted.

Dsalvo:


Don't mind them. That is why Yorubas are superior to them and called "progressives" universally and never them.

They are a people incapable of rising above primordial, clannish, ethno-religious and sectional bias/sentiments.

This is why they are clannishly supporting Obi any honest Nigerian know is incapable of wiping Tinubu's shoes.

How any sane person can compare Obi to Tinubu is beyond me. Are now selling madness to our citizens in Nigeria ?

Oga, forget all the rubbish you're yapping. I guess all the people in Plateau, Taraba, Benue, Edo states etc who are supporting Peter Obi are Igbos.

Yes, we know Obi isn't the best Nigeria has to offer but along with Datti, they are way better than the disaster you guys are packaging in Tinubu and Shettima. God forbid Nigeria being led by both men at this crucial time of our national existence.

You ignoramuses keep comparing Lagos to Anambra and that is why Lagos will never rise to its true potentials. It will remain a slum. Lagos should be compared to cities like J'Burg, Cape Town, Cairo, Rabat etc. These are all African cities which are far less populous but are decent and modern in many respects. You sing the praises of one man who has colonised the most important city in Nigeria and want to hand over the nation to him with his terrorist running mate. You guys must be drunk on cow's urine! Nonsense!

StrongAlphMale:


It’s unfortunate that Peter Obi’s emergence which is now a silver lining has come with complications. Tinubu has a presidential ticket, nobody is saying it’s a Yoruba ticket.

” Atiku has a ticket, nobody is saying it’s a Fulani ticket. But Peter Obi got a ticket and everybody is shouting:’It’s Igbo presidency. Some even try to link him with the Biafra agitation.

” Have they tried to associate Tinubu with the Oduduwa self determination agitation? Or Atiku within the Fulani herdsmen menace or the banditary in the North?

It's even more annoying when you consider that both Tinubu and his supporters have claimed it is Yoruba turn. Tell me, how on earth is it Yoruba turn? Despite that, they still find a way to call Peter Obi's campaign an Igbo agenda.
Those people are very wicked and selfish!

Kagd10:


See the other schools na.. Na secondary school equivalent.

Why are you so recalcitrant to correction?
Community colleges are not equivalent of secondary schools. They are like colleges for A level programmes and are meant for those who have finished high school. Their programmes are usually for 2 years. Who does secondary school for 2 years?
Tinubu spent 2 years there which is why he ended up spending only 2 years in Chicago State University.
Na wa for you o. You could simply have searched for those schools before saying what you don't know.

Kagd10:


An equivalent.

Still isn't.
Just like calling College of Education an equivalent of secondary school because it has college in its name, just like Kings or Queens College.

Kagd10:


Pathological liar like Peter Obi, Chicago state university didn't say they don't know him. Chicago state university have severally confirmed Tinubu as their graduate. So why is your brain still wailing? Go get a transplant. See the attached picture below for example.



Another gibberish because these are things already known about Tinubu but hatefilled people keep crying as if na your mama born am. Tinubu celebrate his birthday with colloquium every year since he became Lagos governor. So what are you crying about? Na your mama born am?

On his education, he's a Bsc graduate of business administration and accounting from Chicago state university which have severally confirmed him and even posted him as one of their outstanding alumni. His secondary school was Daley college. That's enough for me. You can keep wailing and crying.
No one care!

Peter Obi is called a liar because he says one thing today and another thing tomorrow. Moreover, he's a Dullard without achievement in his state.

Richard Daley College is not a secondary school. Stop commenting on what you know nothing about.

yomi961:
How people who wholeheartedly campaigned for Atiku in 2019 are just realizing the man is corrupt and a good example of what is wrong with Nigeria is amusing. Your choice of him in the last election was for altruistic reason, it was for competence, it was a decision to rescue Nigeria. But today, you take pleasure in lambasting people who are supporting Atiku for the reasons you professed in 2019.

The only idiot I see here is you

It was still the turn of the Muslims and the turn of the North in 2019. Also, he was better than whoe he was running against. He is still miles better than Tinubu. Many people in the South also supported him because of Obi. Now, it is the turn of the South and Christians, having had 8 years of a Muslim Northerner. We also have a younger guy who has no corruption record at all to his name. Why should Atiku still be an option?

FreeStuffsNG:
Sample size is infinitessimally small and insignificant so outcome is not reliable one bit, most of the minority educated Nigerians online and on social media was surveyed they mean.

More than 50% won't vote on election day becaise they are not on ground, do not have pvc or will rather stay at home , have idle jests on social media and watch ChannelsTv on that day.

Is it not surprising that you guys claim to be educated but are banking on illiterates and unexposed majority in the North to decide the future of Nigeria for the next (possibly) 8 years? How is Nigeria then expected to move forward and catch up with its counterparts? It's such a shame.

madridguy:
Tinubu: I am not going for the presidency for boxing No be by muscle but brain.

Does he really show much proof that he currently has the mental acumen? Is it not the same man that said FG should employ 50m youth in the Army? Same man that said CBN should print more Naira notes to improve the economy during COVID.
Where is the proof of the 'brain'?

FreeStuffsNG:

You left out the scandal that made folks reject Mbadinuju That is where PDP started getting it wrong. It was clear Ikemba could not win presidency but the disenchantment with pdp and the larger than life presence of ikemba all aligned to make pdp lose. All the uba and Ngige stuffs further divided the pdp to the benefit of apga and ikemba not even Obi who had no structure but used the political structure of Ikemba

Talking about disenchantment, a Fulani man is completing an 8 years tenure and another Fulani man wants to take over. You think Igbos don't have disenchantment against that? Or is it the fact that a Muslim is completing 8 years tenure and another Muslim wants to take over with a Muslim Vice for another 8 years. You believe Igbos will accept that with open arms?
How then do you think Peter Obi won't floor other candidates in the South East?

FreeStuffsNG:

There was Late Ikemba and that is his state. There was also a protest vote after the problems of Chimwonke Mbadinuju, Uba brothers and Ngige. Inspite of that, HE Obi was impeached but saved by the courts. He ended up decamping to the PDP. Right now, PDP is not carrying baggage and Ikemba is no more .

The same Ikemba that contested presidency and lost badly even in Anambra State?
Peter Obi already won the election before Ngige and Uba brothers issue happened. He was the actual winner but Ngige was wrongly sworn in.
He had the masses with him in 2003 which is why he won not because of the support of any politicians. It is exactly the same case right now. You can argue that his chances of winning the presidential election is low but nobody will come close to him in the South East as it currently stands.

FreeStuffsNG:


I am not sure you understand politics
The mushroom party lp has not even a councillor seat in the whole SE yet PDP, APC and APGA share all the elective positions.

It is wishful thinking to expect PDP/APC/APGA members and political structure to vote against their own parties in an open secret ballot. The result will shock you like Osun's result. Those folks are not on the social media and definitely will deliver votes in like pattern that made PDP dominate the SE today.

SE is more likely going for PDP as usual but APC will try. No chance for any mushroom party except APGA.

Only if one is naive will I think social media promotion translates to votes. Most of them are not with pvc or on ground to vote on election day but social media won't tell you this until you see your awful failure at the poll result. Last Anambra guber election, one of the candidates was using social media format and he lule las las.
check my signature for free stuffs!

To see how flawed your thinking process is, when Peter Obi won gubernatorial election under APGA, NOBODY held any elective position in the party. It was completely new without any councillors, HOA members, HOR members or senators.

Tinubuwins2023e:
This is the mind of all yoruba people. This is just the plain truth.
Igbos residing in Lagos are ungrateful despite the love shown to them by we the yorubas. It's high time we tell them the truth. 90% of igbos would be in poverty if not for Lagos and the entire southwest that created the enabling environment

You talk like a fool and an ignorant person. Very big shame on you.
Every time, you guys will be bragging about Lagos. Every Yoruba person alive is from Lagos. Even the man from a tiny Osun village of Iragbiji has today renounced his village and is the premier of Lagos.

What do you mean by 90% of Igbos will be in poverty if not for Lagos? Are you sane at all?
Do you know how many self made millionnaires and billionaires in Anambra alone who have had nothing to do with Lagos? Are you aware that Anambra is among the top 10 richest states in Nigeria and absolutely has nothing to do with Lagos. In fact, if not for Lagos, SE would have been much richer especially if the ports in South South were working.

Yoruba did nothing to make Lagos better. Lagos is simply enjoying many privileges including it's location as a costal city, several decades of being the capital city and enjoying FG attractions and the fact that it has the population to attract large business activity. None of these is a making of Yorubas. Ibadan is also a big Yoruba city but it's nothing close to Lagos.

Difrent:


Okay
Tinubu ran Lagos without LG allocations for sometime because FG Seized the funds


Are you satisfied now?

LG allocations aren't what governors should use to run their states. Ideally, it should be for LG councils for their projects.
A state governor ideally should run the state with the state allocation.
It's because of lack of autonomy of LGs that the governors have been controlling their funds.
In summary, it's not a big deal not having LG allocations.

Tinubu ran Lagos state with all his state allocation intact from the FG. That is the correct statement.

vannessa7:


I totally understand you people s desperation to produce a President but you should have fielded a better candidate, I'm sure there are many proven igbo politicians that the whole nation will support but this Obi is not convincing at all.

Wow! So Tinubu is convincing? Are you for real?
Tell yourself the truth. If Tinubu was Igbo and Peter Obi was Yoruba, would you support Tinubu?
Some of you should have a little shame.
Ordinary pictures of projects of Tinubu in his 8 years rulership of Lagos and none of you can provide, despite the massive revenue of Lagos.
Tell me, on what basis are you really supporting Tinubu?

Difrent:


That wouldnt have been possible without the foundation Tinubu laid.
Don't pretend not to know that Tinubu ran Lagos without federal allocation for some years becaise Obj seized the allocation...... it's this allocation that UMYA released to Fashola and the huge improvement in IGR that Tinubu handed over to him that he used to build on the foundations already laid by Tinubu.
Nobody can dispute this

You people keep regurgitating this lie in bold with ease.
Obj only withheld local government allocation from Lagos because Tinubu unconstitutionally created new LGAs, which today are called LCDAs. Lagos still had all their state allocation intact.

Obinoscopy:
But I saw the video too, he held the flag for over a minute before Buhari and others held it together with him. People made it seem he couldn't even hold the flag, but he held it by himself for over a minute before other joined him. Perhaps they joined him to let everyone know that Tinubu won't govern alone but will have a retinue of APC party faithful that will govern with him. That it will be not just a Tinubu government but an APC government as well.

On the number of youths he would recruit into the army, perhaps it was a slip. I'm sure he will clarify when asked by the media in an interview.

And you say you're not a Tinubu supporter? You're a liar! Own it up to your chest, you're not the only young person supporting him.

plaindealer:



Na inside Afghanistan cave this onde dey since..

Are you alright? Peter Obi has only been the flag bearer in 2 guber elections and he won both. He was Atiku's running mate in 2019 and they were 2nd placed. Which elections has he contested and came last?
Are you sure you're sane?

plaindealer:


If Pandora is so powerful outside the SE, then why is he coming dead last in election after election?

Abi this is not what they call real-life proof?

Coming last in which election?

plaindealer:



So, the SW is also ObiStupid, the North is also ObiDumb and they will all vote for Pandora liar and his SE esn and ugm terrorist miscreants?

You people and delusion are like brothers and sisters..

You keep deceiving yourselves into believing Obi is an Igbo project and it's funny. Obi has more supporters in Edo state than most SE states. Most South South States are for Peter Obi. Even North Central States like Benue, Plateau and Nasarawa have many supporters of Obi, likewise Taraba and Southern Kaduna.
You guys should sit still and watch what will happen next.
