Yeah...

Only you almost 45 monikers on Nairaland..

Shows absolute hardwork, while

Seyi Tinubu just bought another mansion in USA.

Keep hustling...the Qur'an has reached the Atlantic , through Lagos.

Sharia is Sure.

triplechoice:
It is false equivalence and intellectually dishonest to equate "criticism" with an accusation of fraud. This is an accusation of fraud, not a difference of opinion or an inability to "handle criticism"

If anyone is displaying hypocrisy here, it is you, pretending not to know what is at stake while dismissing a serious allegations as mere "criticism"

QuinQ:
So looking at things objectively and NOT emotionally, you'll see US lost nothing permanent durring the war except the 13 soldiers killed. They lost some money but they have excess money, and the lessons they gained are worth more than the money, plus they made a lot of money exporting oil. Gulf States will now contribute immensely to their own defense and will be made Iran-proof. Hormuz and Hormuz-like terrorist attacks will now be taken into account in any war with a country like Iran. You can be sure the next US president that attacks Iran will not have those problems.

Also, after these mid-term elections Trump will have no more elections so can reneg on anything he wishes, while on the other hand most of Iran's losses are permanent!

The Strategic Petroleum Reserve is for the world market, not US (see below). US is the world's largest exporter of oil

OBJECTIVE VERDICT: Iran lost by far

QuinQ:
Everything you said pertains to desperate Trump who has an imminent mid-term elections pressing on his neck. But Trump is not permanent. Trump is NOT US. And Trump before mid-terms can be vastly different from Trump after mid-terms.
Now, below are PERMANENT things. Read them and tell us HOW exactly Iran "won"

Before the war Ayatollah and all the top echelons who perpetrated torture on civilians were alive.

Before the war 6000 Iranian soldiers were alive.

Before the war Iran had Navy, Airforce, and air defence.

Before the war trillions in Iranian infrastructure were not destroyed.

Before the war Iranian economy was not destroyed and in deep depression, now it is.

Before the war Iran didn't have highest inflation rate since 1940's (200%)

Before the war Iran had nuclear in mind, now the furthest thing from their mind is nuclear weapons.

Before the war US was NOT the highest oil exporter in the world, now it is.

Before the war US core inflation rate was 2.5%, now it is 2.9%. See it below

Before the war, no one thought a country would engage in the terrorist act of attacking uninvolved commercial ships at sea. Now it'd be dealt with and SOLVED like other potential terrorist acts.

US is granting ACCESS to Iran to some of their frozen funds, NOT directly releasing money to them to buy whatever they wish. The money is paid to third party suppliers, which in many cases is US!

Now that it is known Iran can go so low, Gulf state countries' defense systems will now be upgraded so they'd be Iran-proof like those ships used for blockade - and they now know they'd have to contribute substantially instead of just going around being extremely rich!

US learnt a lot from the war and will be incorporating these lessons into their defense structure going forward (and they have excess money to do it). Iran will be struggling to get back to where they were before the war

US made a lot money because oil prices went up. Iran lost a lot of money

Tenses:
The biggest prays should go to Ojukwu Bianca for her services.

She's about the only square peg in a square hole in this tinubu government.

AlbertNewton:
Please, next time you're creating a topic, try to put your thoughts together more coherently so it can be easy to engage with the topic intellectually.
I can see that what you're saying in essence is that the political ideologies of Dickson, Obi and Kwankwaso are different, and you're questioning why Obi formed an alliance with Kwankwaso and the joined Dickson's party.

What you need to understand is that Obi is also playing politics with the end goal to become Nigerian President. While I see Obi as someone who can make a huge difference in governance, I do not regard him as a saint. And since Obi is a politician, you should expect him to sometimes do what politicians do, part of which is to form alliance with people you might not necessarily like or have the same ideologies with.
The problem is that you're trying to judge Obi's decisions and actions from a moral perspective rather than from a political perspective.
Every intelligent Nigerian knows Kwankwaso carries some weight in the North politically, and if him and Obi strategize well, their combo can defeat Tinubu in a free and fair election.
In summary, Obi forming an alliance with Kwankwaso is a politically strategic decision, but it might be questionable based on what Obi claims to stand for. Also, he had to join NDC when he realised Atiku was going to win ADC ticket and he still wants to be on the ballot by all means. And based on the results of 2023 elections, Obi knows he can win presidential regardless of the party he adopts, through pure organic votes.

Gustavowhite:
How are they the same?

There is nowhere in this world succession is a crime except one big for nothing Country that can’t even give their citizens security or 5 hrs of electricity

SSpeter:
Imagine you are an employee of Coca-Cola, and the company is doing poorly, and you want to claim you know the company problems? Do you have access to the management board? Unaudited financials? Debtors? Do you have knowledge of the company's obligations and liabilities? No you don't! Whatever you know is what is in the public. Consulting firms work with senior management and ceos to help solve issues. Does Obi attend NEC meetings? Do ministers submit their reports to him? You cannot know a problem based on the symptoms you are seeing, you need to diagnose it

Chienex24:
And what interview or questions did Tinubu answer correctly prior to be shamefully elected as Nigerian president?

KingOfAmebo:
As expected, Tinubu's supporters will flood the thread with their cluelessness...

Your Tinubu that knows the problem, have he been able to fix it after 3 years?...

Your Tinubu promised Nigerians that if he cannot fix Nigeria's electricity problems you should not vote for him again...abi una get short memory?...

shey una dey get 24 hours power supply? ...

Infact, Nigeria is far worse than when Tinubu met it, this is someone that was writing articles upon articles on how to fix Nigeria in his bourdillon house before he became President...

Peter Obi is honest, Peter Obi is the real deal, Tinubu, Atiku and the rest and all their supporters should go and "F" themselves...

Nefort:
You guys are rushing to hate and it prevents you from using your brains. Everybody including Peter Obi knows the problems of Nigeria. He didn't phrase his sentence correctly but he was trying to say that he would speak to people to understand their pains and their preferred solutions. Please use your brains.

doncartel:
You knew about us before we came in so why the murmuring? If you don’t want us, let us know on time so that we can move to another party. The momentum is with us therefore any party we choose will certainly win the election.

AMINDA:
Where will Tinubu's votes come from? In 2023, he got defeated by Obi in the South, winning only 4 Yoruba states out of 17 Southern states. He became president because of the 5.6m Northern votes. Atiku has barely lost a voter from his 6.9m votes in 2023 but he has made huge incursions into the North with the demise of Buhari and Tinubu's betrayal of the Northern allies that helped him to galvanise votes.

Why are you crying so much instead of finding a location to act on Akpabio's mocking advice to Nigerians below

yetunsbay:
u're funny. Comedians just dey spring up each day

anonimi:
The Jagaban of Borgu is more northerner and Fulani than Atiku is, based on how he has betrayed Yorubas and other southerners for them since before Abacha's era.

donmixc:
yet your tinubo have not track bandits and kidnappers troubling us in the north through your corrupt court. abeg don't mention me again with incoherent jargons and hypocrisy. It stinks and repulsive

donmixc:
I don't care about southerners fighting themselves. they should fight dirty if need be.

ATIKU is coming, tinubo must be sent parking
