Buharidgeneral: Can you imagine. Slavery mentality. I Yes sir yes sir president
People like you are hypocrite, but one day you will pack your package with your life savings and beg to go to America, ignoring the five African countries represented in this picture
Any time I heard Obi won 2023 election I am like those saying such are 🐐 goat..menhh!!.
Obi went to court Atiku went to court both claiming they won... definitely they're fighting for who won second place.
PDP brought some evidence but LP came with no single evidence only evidence from eye witnesses, who does that, later they pleaded to the court to disqualify the winner because he didn't win Abuja.
Majority of these Obidients blunders never read the court ruling or follow the court proceedings, all they rely on was anything Aisha Yeshofo tells them.
Gagging INEC and Judiciary will not get you anywhere.
The ADC has said it has no preferred or favourite presidential aspirant but has set out to first put out a platform that would be attractive and acceptable to majority of Nigerians.
“We are doing this because we do not want this great ship called Nigeria to sink because if we do not rise up, and now, they will sink all of us.
“I don’t own this party more than any of our members and I urge all members to prepare to show Nigerians that ADC is a different party," the interim Chairman, David Mark has said.
This 2027 go funny,wait and see how they will systematically abandon Obi in that Confusion Party, the game plan is to make Obi followers switch so they ADC can have more voters to tackle APC.
[quote author=Gbadugbakun post=136027918]Please I want to ask. Is Peter Obi the only presidential candidate? The opposition has been attacking him since 2023 even before the elections. Now they're in power they're still attacking him. Why? [/quote
When you join politics allow your opposition to have upper hand in the media then you will understand the reasons for this gbas gbos
LegendHero: In his interview with Seun yesterday, Peter Obi claimed that the Tinubu administration has borrowed more money in just two years than all previous presidents combined. This is a huge lie.
StatiSense has just released Nigeria's debt stock figures, showing that Tinubu has only added $2.82 billion to the debt since becoming president.
In politics na normal thing to discredit your opponent, will you praise your opponent before. You must paint the party you wanted grab bad in the eyes of the mumu citizens
PDPdestroyer: The more, the merrier. There is no way the total votes of all the 7 candidates added together won’t sack Tinubu from office, and just like that a new Nigeria we’ve been dreaming will be born before our very eyes. The mistake LP and PDP made last election was to allow different candidates contest under different parties. This time around all 7 presidential candidates will contest under ADC and INEC will record their individual votes under ADC, so APC is gone. No magic will save Tinubu this time, congratulations Nigerians
Please someone should please help me read this mumu comment up, did I just see "7 presidential candidate will contest under ADC" and INec will record their individual votes.
Somebody please help me , some Nigerians are truly slowpoke
When they say Nigeria youths are dumb and lack intelligence, we are right after all. A democratically elected president is what you are shouting for impeachment, his party controls more than 60 percent of the legislative arm of government.
Please try to dey use your brain,stop sounding stupid every time.
franchasng: I am a staunch Peter Obi's supporter but as sad as it may sound, he is absolutely correct. Not just any Northerner but Atiku Abubakar.
Peter Obi should not listen to anybody advising him not to deputize Atiku for any reason, he should accept it.
Obi as a Vice won't be the same with docile Vices like Shettima and Sambo Dasuki.
Obi have a formidable political movement that will shake any President that dare joke with Obi, so Obi's influence will soar even higher if he runs as Atiku's vice.
And that is the only feasible way to send Bola Tinubu packing; Atiku vs Obi ticket, anything less Tinubu will continue (God forbid)
Is because you don't know the full meaning of GCFR
Karlman: Not bad Obi is coming Nigeria will be back to normal once again
Normal to where, the whole country has a spiritual problem, always getting worse after 4 years, if Buhari wasn't allowed in 2015, that is how Nigerians will say he would have changed the fortune of the country. No hope in sight.
Anybody Nigerians loved will always disappoint them.
Taquin: First, let me be clear. I am a strong supporter of Peter Obi. He is the only politician in Nigeria today who is genuinely liked without paying people or offering them incentives. That says a lot. He built his movement on truth, competence, and connection. .
Dear Obidients and fellow patriotic Nigerians, I care deeply about Nigeria. I’ve been reflecting since the news broke about the ADC (African Democratic Congress) coalition that aims to unseat President Bola Ahmed Tinubu in 2027. It gave me hope. But I’ve also seen a wave of emotional responses especially online about whether Peter Obi should run for president again or take another route.
Most supporters of ADC are split into two groups: 1. Those who believe Obi should be the presidential candidate of the ADC coalition FOR 2027 and can beat Tinubu with the right northern vice. (Aisha, Datti, tunde ednut, etc....)
2. Those who believe Obi should be vice president to someone like Atiku, with a clear path to become president in 2031 or 2035(incase Atiku contests again----one must be prepared for every outcome. I belong to this group.
Here’s why.: Let’s Look at Age and Timing Atiku’s age in 2027: 80 Peter Obi’s age in 2027: 66
Obi still has time. Atiku, most likely, will not run again after 2027. He has said this would be his last attempt. If Obi runs with him and becomes vice president, he will gain exposure, national structure, and northern goodwill. Then he can return stronger in 2031 or 2035 and no one will be able to stop him.
Lessons from the Past: Obasanjo vs. Olu Falae in 1999 Let’s go back to 1999, when Nigeria returned to democracy. The first presidential election after the military handover from General Abdulsalami Abubakar was between General Olusegun Obasanjo (PDP) and Chief Olu Falae (APP-AD). Both were southern Christian candidates, both Yoruba.
Obasanjo won. Why?
From my research, Obasanjo had the full weight of the PDP behind him, stronger funding, better structure, and broader national reach. For example, he was able to donate 130 million naira and several vehicles to support his party’s campaign. Though both men were Yoruba Christians, Obasanjo was more acceptable to the North due to his military background and national profile. Falae, on the other hand, was viewed as a regional candidate (Yoruba president). His APP-AD coalition was weak, disorganized, and came together too late. Internal divisions and poor strategy sealed his fate. Also, The Southeast felt ignored by the APP-AD coalition and The AD joined the race late and lacked national structure.
This is a valuable lesson for 2027. This same mistake will repeat itself in 2027 if Obi goes solo. History is staring us in the face from 1999 and 2023.
We Must Talk About Loyalty: Buhari’s 15 Million Here’s something I can’t ignore and neither should you. In 2015 and 2019, President Buhari received the same number of votes: 15 million votes, despite rising insecurity, economic hardship, and hunger. In 2015, we could argue it was hope. But when Buhari won in 2019? That was loyalty.
That loyalty came mostly from the North. That’s what Peter Obi is up against and why he must not go alone in 2027. He simply doesn’t have the northern base yet. I am not afraid of the North for some unreasonable ones here but you cannot ignore the numbers.
Numbers Don’t Lie: Obi + Atiku Together Could Have Won in 2023 In 2019: Buhari/APC: 15,191,847 votes (Buhari's loyal supporters won him that election, reason why I had to quote Buhari up there) Atiku/Obi/PDP: 11,262,978 votes
In 2023: Tinubu/APC: 8,794,726 votes (with stolen votes) Atiku/PDP: 6,984,520 votes Obi/LP: 6,101,533 votes (STOLEN VOTES FROM HIM NOT COUNTED)
Combined votes for Atiku and Obi in 2023 = 13,086,053
Had they worked together in 2023, the story may have been different. The votes were there. But emotions, pride, and disunity gave Tinubu the win.
Let’s not repeat the same mistake. To Beat Tinubu, You Must Go Lower Than Him. The best time to beat Tinubu was in 2023. The next best time is in 2027. To beat a man like Tinubu, one must be the bigger devil, the bigger evil, the bigger satan, the smarter one and be willing to go lower. You must be prepared for technicalities, INEC, Judiciary and what nots. You cannot fight Tinubu with church songs and Twitter hashtags. You need structure, ruthless planning, and deep alliances. ADC must be the bigger evil to defeat APC.
If Tinubu is ready to go to hell for his ambition, then ADC must be ready to go there too, take the keys from the devil, and lock him inside.
Politics is war. The longer you stay clean, the more likely you will lose. This doesn’t mean losing values. It means fighting fire with fire, strategy with strategy.
Tinubu Betrayed Jonathan — Let’s Be Honest Some are saying “it’s the South’s turn.” But in 2013, Tinubu led a coalition to remove Jonathan, a fellow Southerner, to pave way for his own future ambition. If a northerner led that coalition, then I would have ignored it.
Was it politically smart? Yes. Was it morally and democratically fair? No. But he did it and it worked.
Now Atiku is being told not to do the same. Is atiku coalition to remove a southern president 1. Politically right = going by apc’s technicality, yes 2. Morally and democratically right = again by apc’s structure and technicality, yes
It’s hypocrisy. If Tinubu could betray a southern brother, Atiku leading a new coalition is not a crime. Do me I do you. It’s strategy.
Jonathan Was Only Accepted Because He Was Vice First Another truth we must face. The only reason the North accepted Jonathan in 2011 was because he had already been vice president and acting president. He had proven himself. He was part of the system. He won 2011 election with 22,495,187 votes defeating Buhari with 12,214,853 votes.
In 2015, When it was time to choose between Jonathan and their own son, Buhari, again, they didn’t hesitate to vote against Jonathan. Why? Between 2011 and 2015, Buhari gained strong support through the formation of APC, backing from the North, and a powerful media campaign that weakened Jonathan’s image, particularly from Tinubu. Jonathan lost key supporters, faced internal party issues, and struggled with low voter turnout in his main regions. You see why I say ADC must be the bigger devil and willing to go lower.
Now ask yourself: has Obi earned that kind of national political weight yet? Not yet. And that’s okay but it means he needs to take a longer route. That’s not weakness. That’s wisdom.
We Cannot Ignore Religion Religion still plays a major role in Nigerian elections. Tinubu knew this, which is why he boldly picked another Muslim as his running mate and it worked in the North.
Peter Obi is a southern Christian. If he runs alone, it gives political enemies room to stir fear among northern voters. It would be very easy to frame it as a Christian agenda. Insecurity has worsened under Tinubu’s leadership, yet he has shown little empathy or urgency in addressing the growing violence across the country. Ironically, many fear another Fulani president, but under a Southern one, killings have continued unchecked. This is a man who asked "Where are the cows" after Pa Fasoranti's daughter was killed by these men.
Let’s not pretend Nigeria is post-religious. It’s not.
Politics is Chess, Not Checkers— Obi vs Tinubu
Imagine this: You're playing against a grandmaster and by move 7, he sacrifices his queen (the most powerful piece on the board). You're thinking, “This guy don fumble.” . But what you don’t realize is; He already planned to checkmate you with a knight and a pawn------slowly, strategically, with moves you can’t even see yet. Without mercy. That’s what APC did in 2023. That’s what they will do again if we underestimate them in 2027. Peter Obi might be holding the “queen” right now (public love, integrity, online army). But if he plays emotionally, and refuses to sacrifice, he risks losing to a knight-pawn combo built in the North and defended by incumbency.
Final Thoughts: Logic Over Sentiment Obi is the hope of millions but hope is not a strategy. Love is not structure. And emotion is not a political plan. Tinubu has shown he can play ugly chess and still win. ADC must play dirty too and like I said must go lower. If the opposition wants to win, they must: 1. Think 10 moves ahead and have back up plans. 2. Be ready to sacrifice. 3. Focus not just on strength, but position and timing. If Obi runs as vice president to Atiku, wins, and governs as VP, he will gain northern goodwill, national acceptance, and the grassroots support he needs to win in 2031 or 2035. At that point, no region will be able to deny him.
But if he insists on running in 2027, and the votes are split again, APC will remain and Nigerians will suffer more than we ever imagined and know the true meaning of retrogression. The goal in the masses heart should be to remove APC from aso rock by any means. It is bigger than Obi and Atiku's ambition.
Let us not repeat the same mistake, my people. Let us not destroy our only chance to rescue Nigeria because of pride, ego, or blind sentiment. We must be the new nationalists for Nigeria. We fought for our independence from the British. Let us fight for our lives and independence this time from bad leaders. We must do right for the next generation.
Thank you for reading. From a concerned patriot — a full-blooded Yoruba daughter who is tired of watching Nigeria fall apart.
My sister you have successfully put up a trash write up, most of you think politics is , I will just take it, when Tinubu said Emilokan, you thought he just sat down before the primaries and other contesters just handed over.
Let Obi be waiting for North to give him ticket on a platter of gold. Remember Ameachi is also in one corner, a lot of you forgot that Ameachi came second during APC presidential primaries......
First of all I will blame any community that allows dangerous herdsmen to cohabit with them, we all know that these set of people resides in the bush , why can't everyone form something like formidable forest guards , saddle with responsibility of securing the forest in each locality.
Bobloco: Funny how you’re asking what the coalition wants to do differently as if Tinubu’s policies are some kind of gold standard.
First, no one is saying we must return to subsidy or a pegged naira. But removing subsidy without a plan, or floating the naira into freefall without safety nets, is not “reform” , it’s recklessness. Nigerians aren’t hungry because the policies are bold; they’re hungry because they’re badly implemented.
Second, a coalition is not a magic trick, it’s how democracies work. Multiple voices come together to create alternative leadership. And unlike Tinubu’s camp, which ran on empty boastful Emilokan slogans and ethnic baiting, some of us actually want to hear ideas
So before you mock the coalition for not publishing a 100-page manifesto in its first week, maybe ask why after two years in office, Tinubu still can’t offer Nigerians a clear economic roadmap, just vibes and volatility.
You want “different”? How about:
Competence over cronies in appointments?
A currency policy that doesn’t swing daily like a mood ring?
Reform that considers the people first before IMF applause?
Coalitions aren’t perfect, but let’s not act like we’re comparing vision to vision here. What we have now isn’t vision, it’s trial and error with over 200 million lives.
You have actually not made any meaningful remarks to the question raised
HitRun: You know why APC is jittery? Something unprecedented is happening. Nigerians will move en mass at a short notice to any new party to defeat the APC in 2027. Whether we like it or not, the OBIdient movement is the catalyst for this change. Any party that fields Obi as their candidate is guaranteed a minimum of 6 million votes. If after all the permutations and Obi becomes the coalition candidate, it is over for APC, period! OBIdients + Establishment politicians support will be more than APC can handle.
If the coalition picks Atiku and Obi decides to remain in the coalition, then it will be 50-50 chance for APC in 2027 depending on what Obidients decide to do. If Obidients grudgingly decide to support Atiku, the election will be over before 12noon.
I can see that you are a spirit, you enter the head and brains of human being and think for them, my fear for your Obi is the likes of Atiku and Ameachi , can Obi bribe delegates. Know this there will be no consensus candidate because some disgruntled elements will kick against it. So when it comes to primaries will Obi be able to rub shoulders with Atiku and Ameachi in spending. Just my thoughts
Sorry for being used and dump, na so , normal typical character of a Nigeria politicians, with no concrete ideology. Let everyone leave Laborers party to join their Messiah in ADcamp
A wise man once said election is not won on social media, last governorship election in one state I won't mention people line up to collect 10k in the village to vote the so called unpopular party.
If you have ever been to the village during election and hear the so call mobilization campaign liver go fail you.
"Better collect this money and cook at least you too don chop from Nigeria money"
Na so dem dey convince them to collect money and vote.
I love nairaland because is full of unwise little children, this coalition has a faulty foundation, big conflict of interest, if Obi get the ticket in which am not certain he will, because Atiku can trick everyone on last day to clinch the ticket..... just his usual tactics .
If una like let Tinubu get zero in next election the euphoria happiness will only last for a week ,poor masses will go back to their pain and suffering, Tinubu can decided to leave his remaining life time anywhere in the world,to him he has achieved greatness, A senator, a governor, a president, Shettima, A governor, a senator and vice president.
Removing them from power won't change the lives of the common man , GEJ government was attacked right left and center what happened, same crooks flock to APC and gang up against Jonathan, same set of crooks are now forming another party and foolish Nigerians are jubilating.......it is now clear that majority of Nigerians are imbeciles
I love this ADC gathering of fools, just watch out how serious fights will start within before the choosing of the executives and flag bearers.
It will be a case na me first come, na me donate pass, na me convinced two people to join.....Tinubu already has his boys in ADC ...go and learn politics.
I love Festus Keyamo analysis, A wise old man told me a story of a young rich politician and an old poor one contesting for Senatorial tickets in primaries in Nigeria state during 2011 election period. This makes me understand politics better. The rich guy was busy spending moving all over ,youths were clamoring for him that they wanted him as their senator, his poster was everywhere in the Senatorial district. Infact his camp already knew his has won. On the day of primaries he package good amounts of money for delegates to vote for him. Alas !!!!......when the finish counting the votes the old poor politician won the election.
I now ask , how?.....The man said election is won by strategy not noise, while the young lad was busy gallivanting around, the old was busy on consulting people that matters even without giving them money, moreso they planted a mole in the young lad camp that is giving them every of their move, thirdly the old man camp kept their move close to their chest and executed it when matters most.
