monerozi5590: Yes. Obi is not matured politically. We see it as an insult. You don't come to our region to campaign and called us poor.
Tinubu didn't do that.
Poverty is everywhere in Nigeria.
When Tinubu was trying to defend his Muslim Muslim candidacy in Shettima by saying he picked Shettima because he is competent and not for religious reason He was cushion by some elders in APC. They told him, saying that is an insult to the Christians in the North. ( Like saying no competent Christians in Northern Nigeria). They told him to say for political reasons instead.
My guy if the truth is choking you then better be ready to meet the Lord. The man has never insulted the North. He simply said the truth and there is too much data available to back it up.. Infact the North being poor is more of a gospel truth to alot of people than the existence of Jesus Christ.
This is VP PYO talking about their threat of forming a parallel government if the elections were not free and fair. This was after the election it seems😂😂😂.
“We have said and our Party the APC has Said, if this coming elections is stolen or rigged, WE WILL FORM A PARALLEL GOVERNMENT in Nigeria 🇳🇬”.- Prof. Yemi Osinbajo vice-president of Nigeria said in Washington DC in 2015📌 pic.twitter.com/9icK54umav
This is what moghalu said in his defence of his 'icon'
Nobel Laureate Wole Soyinka is a principled fighter for justice in our country and around the world. He is a phenomenon that unlettered and uncultured people may not fully understand in an age of lazy social media in which many don’t read or think deep.
Ibukzy: Him be like jaz dey worry obidients like this. Fighting everybody in the market yet they think they are the only correct persons. Cancel pastor Adeboye, Fayose, Soyinka, Onanuga, FFK, Reno, now cancelling Moghalu. Meanwhile some of this people they cancelled were even with them .😔
Lmaooo We should clap for these people? A man called Obidients fascists. Ffk and reno are practically the same. Onanuga is who you want someone to associate with.
Lmao.. And now moghalu is the new bride because he wants to defend Soyinka 😂😂
Amoto94: Northern Ireland uses English as its official language and part of UK, Republic of Ireland isn't part of UK. Hausa is the language of trade and then administrative upon the expansion of Sokoto Caliphate which cuts across the North.
So basically that stayed with the people. This makes sense. Like what nihilistjnr said.
So would you say it is impossible to reverse that effect going forward..
Amoto94: How did English become the official language of UK where you have Scottish, Gaelic and Irish speaking people?
But the number 1 language for Ireland from Google search isn't English nau.
So unless you are saying there was a written agreement between the middle-belt and the Hausas that they would adopt hausa as the official language, I don't see the link.
nihilistjnr: It's not confusing at all if you know basic Nigerian History.
Between Hausa and Banza Bakwai, Borno empire, and Sokoto Caliphate, there has been a huge swathe of land, spanning multiple countries that have been ruled by the fulani-hausa hegemony for nearly a thousand years.
I'm sure even the story of Mai Idris Alooma at the peak of the Borno empire was in one of the MacMillian readers, I think possibly Primary 4. That man was importing musket shooters from Turkey in the 1500s to conquer Nothern Nigeria.
Same MacMillian reader also tells us a fictional story of Gandoki the Fulani fighter who was running around rhe North chopping off the heads of infidels in a thinly disguised reference to Uthman Dan Fodio, who at the peak of his power in the early 1800s had created an empire that spanned South across the rivers Niger and Benue to reach Oyo in the west and what is now Benue State in the east.
History is not my strong point at all. Which is why it's genuinely a surprise for somethings I have read from people in the region.
This tweet seems to be causing issues. Hausas are claiming that they are from plateau state. But all 58 indigenous tribes were mentioned and hausa isn't a part of them.
Again the original conversation was about accusing Obi of being the one who towed the religious part.
This whole thing was to remind you of the actual party responsible for the further divide. The fact that pastors are getting accused too makes it extra fvcked up.
So let's not act like this conversation just came out from thin air abeg
BlueRayDick: But on a serious note, at this point I think it’s just hate and nothing more. I think hate against the person of Peter Obi and whatever he represents to them.
I still find it hard to believe that Atiku has made comments discrediting the so called election , his spokesperson (Dino melaye ) did an “Orubebe” at the collation center, he called the “election” fraudulent and has since led a group of preotesters to protest against the election results .
Peter Obi on the other hand asked his supporters not to protest the elections through mob action/street protests despite also not accepting the outcome of the elections. He even appealed to his supporters who planned to occupy the court house during the tribanal sittings and has kept on insisting he will challenge the results through legal means .
Yet in all of this , it is Peter Obi that is being accused of treason . Shey Lai Mohammed no see Atiku make he accuse am of treason ? Wetin dey sup gan gan for this country ?
I’m beginning to think maybe they’ve consulted some marabouts and they told them If they arrest Peter Obi, all the problems in Nigeria will disappear ? Like maybe that’s what they are not telling us.
Lmao all the accusations towards Obi was leading up to give Lai a justification to accuse Obi when he went to the US.
Even PDP guys have acknowledged that fact that something about Obi really rattles APC and I'm happy the man has not given them one reason to do whatever they plan to do.
They cannot even arrest Obi.. Ahn ahn you sef think of what will happen.. They think all these things are chipping away the support Obi has but as usual they are underestimating the love people have for him
Once again when you are done justifying whatever you want to justify. The reality is APC and tinubu have shown Nigerians 2 things.
1st is that for him, the representation of Christians is of no use and importance to him especially when you consider how divided this present government has made the country.
2nd that he doesn't have the required clout to be the main person like Obi and Atiku are when it comes to politics. So basically shettima is the actual oga inside.
Atleast we are all in agreement that Tinubu went the religious angle. So dead this talk that pastors who have spoken against it are dividing the country or that Obi towed the religious path..
Once again.. Nobody should be crying foul that Christians are pissed then.
Election is a game to some of you while to some of us it is life because representation matters.
An unwritten rule has been broken and we've seen enough religious crisis in this country to know that interests are not to be taken lightly. So if APC is saying that Christians have no value in their government then by all means stop crying about people in the religion reacting to that and pitching their tent with someone who they find worthy of their support.
Abi Christians do not have right in Nigeria to demand for things?
