If rigging is your hope… then it’s 100 percent possible Tulumbu will remain as president because he doesn’t need Nigerians votes but if he really trust that he has the support of the masses, let him make the mistake of allowing Inec conduct free and fair elections where votes are transmitted live… then before 12pm Tulumbu, Remi and Seyi will be sent back to Lagos… so I know your confidence is on rigging

Who is stopping your supporters from posting live results from their polling units......you already sound defeated and the rigging analogy has been hammered into your brain to use has an excuse for your impending failure at the polls....pls wake me up when they are done using your obi.

Dannieln1:
Kano is ADC
Kwankwaso has captured that state
Beside he did well as a governor

APC as a political party have plunged Nigeria into darkness.
They couldn’t tackle the primary needs of the people which is security.
They’ve been in power for 12 years without any significant improvement in security power and healthcare.
Quality of life in Nigeria is next to zero for the common man and for the youth, it’s getting worst.

2027 I wish my people will vote wisely and guard their vote.

APC IS A TERRORIST PARTY.

Kwankwaso has been defeated severally in kano,shekarau did it twice,ganduje did it once.....kwakwanso has been stripped naked and he knows he cant stop tinubu.

Freshtruth:
We are still waiting for Peter obi to send isss birthday wishes to his president. This is too immature of him



We will soon go and hold protests until obi send his own congaratulaly birthday messages we are giving him the next 48hours to do so before we hit the streets

We dont need the bday wishes of a sly fork tongued individual that is always happy when ever there is bad news about the country.....he has never wished Nigeria well and always wants the country destroyed in as much nigerians keep rejecting him.

Memphis357:
Bola Ahmed Tinubu is the weapon fashioned against Nigeria.

Reject him through and through

When light improves significantly which we arr certain would pls dontvbe too ashamed to come here and acknowledge.

Freshtruth:
very frustrating nigga because say tinubu no give m juicy contracts.

When I saw him and obi in UK the other day I knew this guy is a betrayal

He was even saying kwakwanso would win kano because abba gida doesn't know politics and he doesn't carry apc members along......just today smae abba gida was with Ganduje and barau at nass when 9 nnpp rep members decamped to apc.

Kukutente23:
This Obi paranoia is getting to dangerous levels. Was it Obi that grant him bail or did Obi charge him to court? The FG needs to increase security around Obi because any of these misguided and brainwashed zombies might want to unalive him thinking it will make him a hero
Obi is fast becoming the Trump of Nigeran politics

He is a perfect example of why politicians shouldn't be trusted.

sweerychick:
he said the bitter truth, the you think that all those defections are genuine support? APC would collapse on it's own structure

You said more than this in 23 but what do we have now?

There is no way you can run govt without borrowing.....60% of the revenu you make is going into debt service, you are only left with 40% in that you have to fund your recurrent and capital obligations.....whats left? It's only by borrowing you can balance up your deficit.....govt has said you need to start paying taxes you cried that no you aren't paying..... how the hell do you think govt will get money to run the country.

Nah your pot den dey take cook am or inside your bedroom.....

This guy is just one bitter angry procrastinator who always thinks he knows it all....i watched the interview and in the same breathe he was telling everyone apc doesn't need to bother about ADC.....he was alos the one that accused barau jibrin of asking for bribes to clear an appointee nominated by the president but he later recanted and apologised for misinforming the public.

BREAKING: Former Kaduna State Governor Nasir El-Rufai has been taken back to custody by ICPC officials, following an earlier administrative bail, which allowed him to attend his mother's burial.

El-Rufai, who was earlier today at the Kaduna State High Court and the Federal High Court in Kaduna, is expected to know the fate of his bail application hearing tomorrow as the federal high court adjourned his bail application to Wednesday.

To be released later,its obvious there's been a political solution to his predicament.....nigerian politicians are very terrible people to trust with emotions.....who could ever believe obi would be in cahoots with the very criminal structure he claimed he was coming to uproot......who could have thought?

To be released later,its obvious a political solution has been sought to his predicament consideringall we saw during his mother's burial......nigerian politicians are very terrible people you should never trust with your emotions......who could have thought obi would be rolling in the mud with the criminal structure he once claimed to come to uproot....who could have thought?

fineboynl:
Every divorce/Separaterd and single mother always talk bad about their ex. He is always the evil while they are the good one.

He always cheat or beat them.
Sometimew Drinks alot during late hours or smoke. Doesn't care or provide. And the annoying thing is that they miss him and sometime wish or even pray for him to come back to him.

Not all of them.....i have met some who have acknowledged good deeds about their ex stopping short of even regretting......there has to be moment in life you realise some relationships aren't just going to succeed no matter how hard you try .

ogaontop:
You should stop being dumb please, what's the effect of all these on the average Nigerian?
As we look at what's on papers, let us also consider the effect on ground!

Try and check up how much Nigeria borrowed between 2015 to May 2023 of Buhari (with subsidy), and June 2023 to 2026 of Tinubu (without subsidy payment), and tell me what you found out
2. Also try and check up how many companies have closed down business or left Nigeria from 2015 till date, the numbers will speak for themselves

The Jonathan you guys called names is an angel where APC government is.

There you go again with your pedestrian logic on how the economy should be ran......can the common man you are always quick to refer to have economic prosperity if the currency isn't stable,govt isn't solvent enough, inflation being brought down,foreign investors having confidence in your economy, diversifying the economy, banks being recapitalosed to be strong enough to give the economy the big push it needs?

How is it so difficult for you to know that it's the macro that drives the micro....if the macro is stable then gradually starts to cascade down to the micro level where your common man that is always hungry is......tinubu us doing fantastically well in this regard as just confirmed by the committee of central banks from all over the world whether you like it or not but I would agree with you there is a disconnect right now with the reality on the streets but this things are gradual,its the people themselves that would have to create productivity in the economy together with the govt......we don't have to consume all we have to fill our bellies without preparing for 2mao as we were used to during the gej era which put us in the mess we are in right now.

Go and check your facts,Nigeria debt actually reduced in dollar terms under tinubu from where he met it.......the last time was under obj,your debt servicing to revenue ratio was at a 105% when tinubu came but now its about 60% you can just Google it and see......these are the things investors and the business people that will create those jobs you are talking about,these are tge things they look at to make decisions.

ooduapathfinder:
"Starting from somewhere" is not the problem. The problem is in the "where"

If "the law doesn't stop borno state police dept from confronting boko haram if they have the capacity to do so"--- how will Borno have the capacity when it did not create the mechanism? Borno can only do so if it created the policing system itself. That is not the case. And this goes for all states.

If "terrorism is a federal crime anywhere in the world"---(a) everywhere in the world is not a federal (b) in Federal societies, the crime is investigated by all levels of policing, as a "Federal crime" and not exclusively restricted to Federal police as it is being suggested in this instance.
If "Nigeria is grossly underpoliced"--the solution is not in restricting the "state police" to a subordinate level.

We keep saying the "states should fund this and that because they are getting more allocations.

Yet, the logical way for this to happen is for the states to have control over their resources so they can effectively address their concerns. Not by the center doling out allocations, deciding the type of security, deciding the number of local governments.

In short, the center decides everything and then tells the states to manage them. Tat is the fundamental problem that needs to be addressed, hence the need for a new Constitution.

What resources is a state like osun contributing to the country or Gombe state?

State police in a federal system isn't inferior tobthe federal but the latter is only above in hierarchy....the fbi is above the LAPD or NYPD fir instance......if someone steals your car and drives into ogun state, lagos police can't go and get it for you over there simply for lack of jurisdiction,it will have to be refered to the federal police.

The major concern should be funding,how will indigent states be able to fund their respective policing requirements, thats the real elephant in the room that no one is talking about......I feel there is no way states can take off without commensurate support from the federal govt and local govts also have to have a stake also the citizens which in most cases have been funding some independent security architecture currently would also have to integrate all this into this arrangement.

Terrorism is a crime against the entire country and not the state it is taking place....it has to be combated by both the state police when established and the federal but prosecution and adjudication can only be done at the federal level.

He should mention the Yoruba that he feels should be arrested.....

OctavianAC:
Audio award

But numbeo that you quoted for claiming Nigeria has the worst living index or dino that cooked lies that tinubu borrowed more than past govts but gave you guys heard ons and you started a party.....those ones are the ones you prefer.

Central banks the world over came together to celebrate your success but you don't like it because it doesn't amplify the lies and misinformation you have been peddling about tinubu's management of the economy.

KINGS100:
Which organization gave the award?

You deliberately sidestepped the part that said it was awarded by the central banking committee in london

KosiGee:
Give Obidients link to verify the source. Who have the award? Where was it given?

U noh sabi read?

Obidients come and tell us how much tinubu bought this one.

adioolayi:
Mr Nasir Gawuna ...with over 800k votes .. aligning with elections veteran like Kwankwoso in Kano is a plus.

Should this addition naturally translate into increase huge figures...the answer is No.

The reasons sre simple...The only force here is still Kwankwoso and not Gawuna.
This is because, Gawuna reportedly only managed to win his ward in an elections he was on the ballot...he lost 11 wards and lost his LGA in the last elections. NNPP candidate backed by this same Kwankwoso won in 11 wards and this LGA.

So, I believe it is Kwankwoso's figures he will inherit. Kwankwoso needs him as a candidate to run Kano gubernatorial..and that's all.

My own permutations...if there are no other defections from APC to ADC....I think Governor Kabiru has a chance.....teaming up with Ganduje and other APC's heavyweight...his own performance ratings will be decisive to know if he can defeat Kwankwoso.

For now, Gawuna is not adding any electoral figures to Kwankwoso

You sabi,beta oyel dey your head Miles apart from those guys that ignore facts and keep playing emotional politics......gawuna as a guber candidate lost his nassarawa lga,he also had the state resources behind him through ganduje.....kwakwanso on the other hand got that overwhelming support majorly for the fact that he was on the ballot.the dynamics are now totally different and Kano is a place of special interest to tinubu.......the other way to look at it is ganduje could actually send gawuna over to kwakwanso so whichever way the election goes he is still a winner because Gawuna can also easily move to apc if he wins with kwakwanso but I trust kwakwanso can't be that stupid.

kingbee90:
The entire Northerners are really cooking "Tuwo Chinkafa" for Amoda Ogunlere but the "jonzing man" hasn't realised it yet.

He is banking his hope on snatching and running with it and sharing of expired rice .

E go shock am soon.

Kwakwanso would be a fool for taking this guy in and giving him guber ticket against those that have stood by him through his years in the wilderness..... gawuna was among those that rubbished Kwakwanso along with ganduje.....he could be easily planted by ganduje and tinubu to get the state back with the help of sane kwakwanso that loves to hate them so much......gawuna is apc through and throu,no amount of red caps can change that.

AustineE1:
The truth is bitter,'in a time of deceit,saying the truth is a revolutionary act'.
I give Kudos to the author,not because he justified the stance of Igbos on national affairs but because it takes a man of courage and clear conscience to this.
Of course the tribal lapdog will be released on him but the truth is sacrosanct.
If the likes of Orji uzor Kalu,Hope Ozodinmma,Rochas etc comes out for presidency,Igbos will be the first to reject them. Give us Akinwumi,Yemi Osinbajo etc we flock behind them. That's the progressive spirit of an Igboman,may be our culture encourages to choose from the best.

Same with yorubas....they will take this igbos over sowore..... soludo,moghalu,mbah,otti and some few others.....don't force obi down our throats,he is seen as a bigot by yoruba moslems and a chauvinist by the rest.....Bianca is working quietly in a yoruba govt abd she is doing excellently well,yorubas love her same way igbos do.

franchasng:
My brother can you please counter his words with verifiable facts like he also presented without the usual mumbo jumbo?



Igbos maybe anything bad you can think of in your heart and within your tribesmen, but as an Igbo man, we keep records, even amongst us Igbos, we know who is a criminal, who got his wealth through wuruwuru and who got his wealth through hardwork and dedication. We might hail you oh, you might succeed in buying chieftaincy titles with your I'll gotten wealth in Igbo land, but when it comes to selecting our leaders, we are very intentional about it, it is at that time you will see us begin to Torchlight you to your amazement. It is at that time that we start to look for the most credible among us to lead us. This is who Igbos are.


Yes you may say what about this Igbo person that emerged Governor or Senator from Southeast, I can boldly tell you that it's mostly as a result of weak and corrupt Nigerian electoral system that you see known corrupt men and women emerge Igbo political office holders against the wish of the Igbo masses. It happened in Hope Uzodinma before our eyes. Sometimes it's those none Igbos at the federal level that use their influence to promote and exalt the most dishonorable Igbos to become Igbo political leaders against the wish of the Igbo masses.


If Nigeria reforms it's electoral system and rigging and manipulation is reduced to say 90%, I can swear with my life that no man that lack integrity or credibility will emerge Governor or Senator in Southeast.



All what the writer said is nothing but the truth. Like I said, point out his lies or where he said something that is not fact so that we all can see and learn

Maurice ibekwe,hope uzodinma,the 2 ifeanyi ubas,Arthur nzeribe and many others.....this are notable igbo leaders who the world knows have controversial past.

I love this man....brings back fund memories.

We need ti start from somewhere.....terrorism is a federal crime anywhere in the world,the law doesn't stop borno state police dept from confronting boko haram if they have the capacity ro do so or protecting the people against them,the primary essence of policing is maintaining law and other.

Their has to be a multi layered policing structure that all work in synergy to drive the engine of security.....the community based policing structure will also be integrated.

Interstate crimes,robbery,smuggling,financial crimes,treason,terrorism all fall within the ambit of federal crimes.

Nigeria is grossly under policed far below the UN recommendation of ratio 1:450.....the estimated police strength we have is 371k for a population of about 200m,thats about 1 police to 539 citizens.

There is no way the federal police will need that many men in its employ if state police takes effect,so its normal some of them can be seconded to individual states of their origin and state govts should be ready to fund and equipments them in collaboration with the fg.

Validated:
Kano, Jigawa, Kaduna (North and South), Kebbi and Katsina are gone. All those that helped Tinubu rig in the KKK states have left him.

You won't leave your small bedroom without light and be talking about the north that you know nothing about.

bolaayenimo:
Shehu Sani the hypocrite comrade

Because he isn't supporting obi abi......where was your obi when el rufai his new friend was persecuting those man?

givedemwotowoto:
The magnitude of betrayal that awaits Tinubu from the North will be massive… and he knows

Not from the likes of shehu sani and uba sani,they were all in the trenches together and they have come a long way and they all have a common rivalry with el rufai.

AMINDA:
Same Southsouth that Tinubu's water carriers told us is in the bag? Where then will Tinubu's votes come from? Goodluck might just spring a surprise and contest under the NDC.

Those are just seriake dickson's loyalists... its really not a biggie to anyone.....don't get carried away by all this defections.....its all about tickets,if apc promise them ticket dem go still go.....a politiciqn only stays and goes to party he is sure of getting ticket.
