Foreign AffairsRe: Trump Says U.S. Will Send More Weapons To Ukraine, After Halting Some Shipments by Krismas(m): 7:05pm On Jul 08, 2025
God1000:
It seems his bromance with Putin is over, I remember how he accused Ukraine of starting this war and blamed zelensky for refusing to work towards peace and his supporters here praised him then

What happened to his promise to end this war within 24hrs? he thinks Vladimir Putin is someone he can order around

Donald trump invited zelensky to the white house where he embarrassed him before the whole world, he treated the president of a whole country with so much disdain and contempt and his followers applauded him for doing so

I guess he doesn't have the cards after all
grin Ukraine is paying for any weapon Trump gives Zelensky, unlike Biden F.O.C grin
Weapons that will not even work against Russian advance. Since Zelensky is determined to waste Ukraine money, Trump have no problems with dat

PoliticsRe: You're Defending A Man Who Built No School For 8yrs, Wike's Aide Slams Farotimi by Krismas(m): 1:39pm On Jul 08, 2025
Putindbutt:
Lere Olayinka, Senior Special Assistant on Public Communication and Social Media to Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Minister Nyesom Wike, has sharply rebuked Nigerian lawyer and human rights activist Dele Farotimi for his scathing criticism of Wike.

Farotimi, in a post on X on July 7, 2025, labeled Wike the “poster boy of the Nigerian ruining class,” accusing him of embodying the flaws of Nigeria’s political elite, describing him as “cacophonous, parasitic, narcissistic, Lilliputian, gluttonous, myopic, and untouched by any desire for immortality.”

In a fiery response on X, Olayinka dismissed Farotimi’s remarks, asserting that the lawyer had abandoned objective reasoning. Olayinka, known for defending Wike’s interests, argued that Farotimi’s critique was driven by personal bias rather than substantive analysis, accusing him of joining a “coalition of confusion” with ulterior motives.

This aligns with Olayinka’s prior defenses, such as his June 2025 rebuttals against Dele Momodu, where he accused critics of exploiting historical struggles for personal gain.

According to Olayinka, he said, "When as a lawyer and human rice and beans activist like DeleFarotimi, you have lost your sense of rational reasoning, you will be supporting, promoting, and defending a man who built no single school throughout his 8 years as governor, but attacking another man who built the law school that many of the law graduates that will be called to bar this week attended."

The clash reflects ongoing political tensions, with Farotimi’s comments echoing sentiments from the African Democratic Congress (ADC) coalition, including figures like Atiku Abubakar and Peter Obi, who aim to challenge President Bola Tinubu in 2027. Olayinka’s retort underscores Wike’s camp’s strategy to counter opposition narratives, framing critics as misguided or opportunistic.

You don't need t always rely on newspaper headlines, try as much as possible to get closer to politics and follow developing events. It's no longer news that the Senate, as we speak, are engaging in public consultations & town hall meetings for constitutional amendment in each geopolitical zone. Even today, there is a town hall engagement for the North Central region. The constitutional amendment is geared towards fiscal federalism and restructuring.

a. I've only be wasting my time talking with an idealist.
.
b. Tell me how you can make 200million not come out to vote. Or tell me how you can make voter not come out to vote
2. Tell me how you can make Nigerians not participate in election
.
3. If you can do that, then your option is practical... Or else look for something else
grin grin a. You are actually the IDEALIST, laboring under the false hope that Obi can win 2027 election or worst still, Obi can better the lot of the nation using the current Fulani constitution

b. Buhari became president upon the vote of 28% of registered voters. I mean only 28% of registered voters voted in 2019.
The country is not even voting! What do you mean 200million, wen 7/8million people are the voters?
Why not face the reality?

2. Those voting, are the politicians, who are the beneficiaries of this corrupt system. And hopeless IDEALISTS like yourself, who are merely being USED by the politicians like mindless zombies.
Politicians will always continue to vote. The Idealists on the other hand, may finally recover from their bewitchment one day, to admit elections have never helped this country since 1999. Whatever happens, i am not banking on politicians + Idealists
to bring about the change the country needs. Cos you too few, twisted and deluded.

3. Continue to vote all u like. It doesn't matter. As the country will only keep getting worst. The decisive turn around however, is coming from a different direction you know nothing about.
PoliticsRe: 2027: Five Governors Expected To Join ADC by Krismas(m): 7:08pm On Jul 05, 2025
FreeSpirited:
You are not as smart as you think
.
a. You can't distinguish between ideology, theory, frame of reference and even, you don't even understand the population you are dealing with. You think everyone thinks and understand issues as u.
b. I have told you, a society can not evolve beyond the level of their education, awareness and political literacy that applies to their systems of government.
.
c. Do you think it's not without reason that govt promote voter apathy? The more apathy the more the political class wins. Voter apathy and voter disinterest in politics gives the political class room to impose their will, the more people get involved the more questions will be asked and the more people can agitate for a cause, that is why ur govt don't want to educate u well, and don't want u to come out in majority for any cause whatsoever.... Because ur majority threatens them... That's why they won't even want people like you to get involved.... Cos millions of people like you will cause big problem... Na why they don't promote voters card early enough , or voters card collection, they want it to be difficult for u so u won't get involved enough to ask questions or mobilize in force against them
So at this point, Obi coming is not the final solution... It's a step in a right direction cos 1. He will make u mumu politically apathetic interested in the politics because he inspire participation and build trust in leadership.

2. And he can champion electoral reforms, for coming President after him, a Tinubu won't give u any meaningful reform that won't allow rigging....
3. He can start a blueprint of reforms and fight against corruption
4. The most important is driving u mumu people to get involved and be brave to face your leaders instead of complaint. The more involved u are and the more interested u become in ur politics and the more people can ask questions and join the movement the better and easier for revolution
.
If you want me to analyse this issue, DM me, let talk like political literate...
grin a. Rejecting election in Nigeria is not IDEOLOGY. Its already the reality for majority of the electorates.
b. There is enough enlightenment and awareness in the society that votes don't count and election does not produce popular candidates
c. Politicians only attempt to deprive people of cards in areas where they are not popular. What am telling you is that the apathy includes even the areas where they are popular.
1. Obi will not win 2027 election. Wakeup from your slumber before its too late.
2. All reforms are from the national assembly. And they are known to reform NOTHING.
3. There is nothing Obi can do about corruption.
4. The best thing any sane person should do, is REJECT participation in an event designed to end in PROFITLESSNESS.
No way 2027 election is going to make the country more secure, prosperous and corruptionless. So whats the point?
But demanding for STATE POLICE, ANTI OPEN GRACING, RESOURCE CONTROL, ELECTORAL REFORM etc, instead of demanding for Obi is the most sensible thing to do.

But Practically and by level of political education of the majority of masses in naija, ur idea won't work even if it's right
Because the people you need for that mobilization don't have that understanding and can't mobilize for what they don't understand or for what they can't see as practical
All those theory works where people understand the import. It has a lot to do with level of literacy, and political and democratic literacy.

It's not about the idea sometimes, sometimes the people may not even understand the import of ur idea even though it's logical to u, because the mob don't operate on great fanciful theory.... The mob is about action, and less theory.... Go for ideas that will spurn them into action
Not u saying several laws have to be signed first, who's signing it? Is it the people or the corrupt leaders who won't even sign it, give the people what they can run with, not what will need almighty formula and calculus to understand.

When ur action since 1999 of voting have brought you nothing, why not stop and look for another way?
Since the days of FEDECO, presidential elections are rigged, and the national assembly cannot effect any meaningful change.
So what is the foolish hope of the Obidient movement, to bring about national solution via electoral system?
When you are finally ready to face the truth, nobody will advise you to abandon elections.
The system can't change without some force. If people insist on reforms instead of elections, that would go a long way in solving the problems of the nation, as opposed to believing in some magical candidate to revamp the nation out of thin air.

You have to go for what majority can buy or what you can inspire the majority to follow., which Peter Obi has been able to do. That's a starting point especially if he's a man the people trust. And if he's visionary enough. There are a lot of visionary people who will never have majority support because we don't trust them, or they don't have what we can judge them by to follow them
Your idea is good on paper, but Nigerians won't buy it, or ready to mobilize for it, so it's a waste of idea.
