FreeSpirited: Your problems is that you don't understand what it means by theory and practical. Theoretically and intellectually you are right 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. We haven't gotten there yet. The only hope here aside from revolution which Nigerians can't agree on because of tribalism, the more pragmatic is to look for a man u trust, rally around him, then when he gets there, hope that those idea u talked about he can start to champion it before he leaves. That's the only way. The next best way is revolution.... But Nigerians are too coward for revolution .
U are ignorant. Thats your problem. Since 1999, your democracy, is minority rule. Or how can you explain 2023 elections, where over 80million were registered to vote, but less than 8million actually voted? You are not majority doing all this useless hope and pretending you have a democracy. Your hope will be dashed again and again. Continue to deceive yourself
FreeSpirited: Most Nigerians agreed on EndSars and mobilized for it that's why it almost engulfed the whole nation. So don't be silly by saying they don't agree on EndSars. Ur idea is called idea, but many most people can't fight for it because it's not practical enough to stir 50milliom people into action 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.
Where did end-SARS happen anywhere in the north? Even in the southeast? Why do you think the senate recently, tried to criminalize voter apathy? 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. Fool's hope
FreeSpirited: Can 200 million Nigeria agree on this proposal, abi is just your personal wishful and theoretical thinking. Everyone has idea, but the question is can 200 million people buy the idea? If not it won't work. It's like Sowore, though we know he's fighting for revolution, even though we know Nigeria needs revolution, yet Most Nigerians don't buy or key into his dagboru revolution, that's why he's the only one shouting revolution now. So it won't work 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. . So politics is not only about great ideas, but ideas that is practical, sellable and also reasonable. That the majority are willing to follow. The mob are not as stupid as u think .
mob and stupidity is 5 & 6. This is what politicians always capitalize on. 200milion people did not agree on end-SARS before a violent protest did just dat. Many people don't even show up for voting any more. Meaning my Idea is not far-fetched. You and your likes are the ones delusional in thinking Obi can make any difference under a hopeless system. Even angel Michael will fail as president under this system. So, all you will ever get under dis arrangement, are the likes of Tinubu. U even got a clone heading the last administration, and you are non the wise for it.
FreeSpirited: So because they are all evil, what is the solution u offer? Make we just dey shout just evil and do nothing? Abi make we go vote ur papa, so why not offer us ur saint papa so that we can vote himm. All these foolish lack of political awareness talk should stop. .. U iidioots always making this excuse for ur political apathy and pessimism that is also as worse as voting evil men... Give us solution.. We've been hearing this bullshit since our primary school.... Cos they are evil we should just do nothing? . If u are not ready to join forces.... Stop talking this bullshit. Bring solution, not useless statement that change nothing
Solution is very very simple. No to election until RESTRUCTURING. Resource control, State police, Ban on open grazing, electoral reforms etc. Must all be passed into law b4 election. No presidential election in this country that was not RIGGED. 2027 will not be different. Yet every 4yrs, people stupidly believe their votes matter.
Just 5 governors EXPECTED to join ADC b4 2027? Wonderful! how will you leave PDP, having 10 governors to join ADC expecting just 5governors, and still hope to win 2027? Make it make sense! ADC is dead on arrival. Who are they expecting to fund the party's presidential campaign? Obidients on Tiktok?
HEAVEN4444: you gotta be able to read motives from line of questioning. They have injected humanity into the line of questioning. They say DOES YOUR MOTHER KNOW YOU ARE HERE FIGHTING FOR ANOTHER COUNTRY ? WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE ? DOES YOUR FAMILY KNOW YOU ARE HERE.
IF THE NARRATIVE IS TRUE The Nigerian is technically NOT A MERCINERY. He is a convict WHO CHOOSE MILITARY DRAFT to escape serving time. So, he is a captured Russian DRAFT The question now is, why all these useless and needless publicity over the brother?
HEAVEN4444: obviously following the line of questioning you can sense empathy and sympathy on the part of his captors. He will be released to the Nigerian embassy and deported. But he will have to choose to forfeit his Russian citizenship and be deported or choose to stay then they will execute him. He will have that choice. Is it more important for you to be deported to Nigeria or for us to put a bullet in your head now, pick one
Do you know how many Ukrainian mercenaries are currently in Russian captivity? From all over EU and America? Who told you they will not try to use the Nigerian to swop one of their own with Russia?
igbosarejews: Did Chechnya wanted to join NATO, before they were invaded by the criminal Russian empire in 2001. What about Georgia, that Putin invaded in 2008 and took large part of it's territory, did they equally wants to Join NATO expansion? Russia has always been a criminal empire that wants to annex all it's neighboring territories, for the shît hole, USSR revival. Ukraine shouldn't have given up it's array of nuclear weapons and missiles.
Why should anybody join NATO? How is NATO different from a secret society? Then, who told you Ukraine does not have nukes? They have. Let them try to use it first! Or America Britain and France should use nukes to defend Ukraine. Abi does EU not have nuke? Meanwhile Russia have liberated the whole of Luhansk province
If Wike has the guts, he should join the APC. He can’t because for him, it’s better to reign in hell than to serve in heaven. He’s a don in the PDP. Dele Momodu, Former Presidential Candidate, PDP
Wike is Tinubu's man inside PDP. Leave him alone. Cos we like him like that
Slytiger: What happened earlier today with the movement of the so-called ‘coalition’ into the ADC is the greatest factor that has strengthened the APC ahead of the 2027 elections. Let me explain.
This man who said he will run under LP, will NOT. He will run under ADC He said he will not run with the cameroonian. He WILL He will run as vice to the cameroonian. This man is a KNOCKOFF, pretending to be messiah
esnbrutality: Seems you don't even have a feel of what is obtainable. TINUBU has failed woefully and there is absolutely NOTHING you can do to change the narrative.
Hunger in the land..has reset people's brains and tribal, religious politics will NOT save you again.
Hunger na your Mate?
Tinubu have not failed one bit Who are the tribe killing and kidnapping around the country? Herdsmen Who are the tribe leading the coalition? How can the killer be the messiah? Abi how will Obidient solve the security problem? 4 + 4 = ooPBAT 100% Man shall not live by bread alone
i recall wen north was in power, the Lekki toll gate demonstration and end-bad-government was gun down mercilessly During the covid lockdown, the north FG horde food, leading to riots and food stampedes. One of the leaders of the coalition now, promised to return observers for free fair election, in BODY BAGS. So, the coalition has not seen anything yet
anonimi: There is enough federalism in the constitution already, including those in the 5th amendment Buhari passed two years ago.
I am more interested in getting more of us involved in politics and governance processes to reinforce the independent institutions for checks and balances on the three arms (executive, legislative and judical) of government at the three tiers (local, state and federal). A situation where only 10% of our population votes and far less contribute anything else to the political and governance processes is far from ideal.
This would enable us to increase federalism and restructuring over time.
Does the 5th amendment of Buhari include STATE POLICE? Does it include ROTATIONAL PRESIDENCY? You people only like to deceive yourselves. 4 + 4 = ooPBAT 100% Take it or leave it.
anonimi: Let him fulfil his promises to make life better for all Nigerians with available goods and services at a good price.
How much is the VALUE of the allocation when hyperinflation is taken into account?
Hyperinflation that is reflected in the exchange rate and petrol price, both of which ebilokan has failed to crash as promised.
Am glad you can see that no promise can be fulfilled in this country. Question now is, why are you not campaigning for restructuring the country, instead of routing for a coalition of yet another promise-maker, who won't fulfill nothing?
correctyourself: Dey play, the number of people watching from far, and suffering are more than those who want power.
I wish all Nigerians understand that, the money the politicians gives during election are actually Nigerian's money that few persons shared amongst their selves, hence, collect the money during election and still vote based on your choice considering how you felt during any regime.
Wen Buhari won first term 2015, people died during wild celebrations. Thinking change has come. Anybody thinking one coalition of desperate conmen, is the messiah to rescue nigeria, should prepare to die in hungry
richmond500: 80% from SE is locked for Obi. Last election, it was 90% but I am reducing it to 80%.
As for South south, there is a dissenting voice against Wike, while many will not have issues with Tinubu, many wants to see Wikes downfall, so opposition will take 40%
As for South West, this is Tinubus turf and I am giving coalition 20-25%, it could be more.
As for north central, this is not the stronghold of oppositions, but Wike factor will make them win, but opposition will get 40%.
North east is Atiku's stronghold and he will win it with 60%
N'west will fight heavy, Kwankwasor and El-rufai will play some role but u believe Tinubu will narrowly take the vote and give opposition 40%
What is the population of voters in SE? Its a pity Obidients will never wiseup
