Indeed. They have a lot to say right now because they want the agulu charlatan in Aso Rock by all means yet they forget that, factually, no set of leaders , when Nigeria has being most troubled, have led by example more than Yoruba leaders throughout our history as a nation.

When Malami was abetting Fulani murderous expansionist agenda across Southern Nigeria, we heard nothing from Obi or any of their leaders.

It was Yoruba Governor's who tackled Malami, refused to back down, and delivered Amotekun. Progressive Nigerians should be patience.

After Jan 2027, when Tinubu wins a second term, the world will see how quickly the FG will move with critical solutions that will improve the lives and fortunes of Nigerians as never seen before.

Tinubu is going to ensure every region that wants peace, socio-economic progress and develop-nation standard can be free and empowered to work towards such as only him can.

Lol did I hear you say "throughout the Nigerian history as a nation"?
May I remind you that before, your governors could come together to form their amotekun, Nnamdi Kanu that is not even in government has already forseen the Fulani murderous expansionist agenda you talked about in your post, and formed ESN to checkmate them.

WizardOfNG:
It is an Igbo man, who happens to be an APC member, appealing to his fellow Igbo. Not APC, as a Party, begging Obi.

APC will beg Obi for an election it has won already? People can delude themselves but Tinubu has won a second term already.

tinibu and his APC goons are really banking on that puppet inec chairman
Apart from the puppets in inec and judiciary, tinibu no dey go anywhere because no sane Nigerian will ever vote tinibu. Even tinibu himself knows this fact that's why he can't conduct a free and fair election.

DomPerignon:
Loool

When I posted several days back that the NDC won't be conducting any Primaries for most slots and have resorted to boardroom selections some obidients were cursing their father

The party struggled to sell their forms and ended up giving it out for free because no one wanted to have anything with them.

I also said the party would have preferred not to do anything like Primaries because their primaries for each ward will be scanty as they hardly have any real registered members outside their online obidient mob.

Mbanda and co how far?

Does that mean that NDC has collapsed?
What has that got to do with Obi loosing out out of the presidential race?
Is Obi and kwankwaso no longer together?
These are the three things that matters to obedients.
Stop making jest of yourself for once.

yarimo:
2027 kwankwaso will know what is really Andrew liver salt better

This is the handiwork of tinibu lapdogs.

I watched the CAF Champions League match between Sundowns Football Club of South Africa and FAR Rabat of Morocco last night in Rabat, Morocco. The atmosphere and presentation were stunning. In fact, if nobody told you it was an African league, you would assume it was a European competition. The fans were passionate, the stadium looked beautiful, and everything felt properly organized.

Then I started reflecting on Nigeria, the so-called “Giant of Africa.” What exactly do we truly have that works well? I began asking myself whether we simply make a lot of noise while being empty underneath, because honestly, I struggle to point at any sector in Nigeria that is functioning properly.

Electricity? Terrible.
Football, swimming, basketball leagues? Poorly managed.
Tourism? Almost non-existent.

What exactly do Nigerian youths have to enjoy during weekends aside from hotels, malls, restaurants, and nightlife? We barely invest in recreation, sports culture, tourism, or public experiences that improve quality of life. Meanwhile, countries like Morocco and South Africa are building functioning entertainment and sports industries that create jobs, happiness, and national pride.

The painful part is that the consequences of poor governance are mostly carried by the poor and middle class. Politicians live under heavy security protection with access to the best public resources, while ordinary citizens deal with insecurity, kidnappings, unemployment, and collapsing infrastructure. Have you noticed how it is mostly children from ordinary schools and communities that suffer these tragedies?

Even basic systems like water supply are a mess. Everyone digs boreholes independently and buys fuel just to pump water. There is no coordinated public infrastructure.

Each time I visit South African or Moroccan football pages and see how citizens passionately support their local leagues, I understand why. Their leagues are actually enjoyable and functional. Sundowns played at the FIFA Club World Cup against strong international opposition and held their own. That is what investment and structure can achieve.

Can we honestly pause for a minute and talk to ourselves as Nigerians?

We make a lot of noise online, but in reality, we are behind in many important areas. Even Ghana is currently pushing tourism harder than Nigeria. I build software for a tourism company in the US, so I understand how massive that industry can become when properly developed. Nigeria is missing enormous opportunities.

Do Nigerians understand how much money a properly run football league alone could generate?

Think about the employment opportunities:

Clubs hiring staff and athletes
Increased transportation activities
Hotels making money
Restaurants and local businesses booming
Media rights and sponsorship deals
Tourism growth
Merchandising and jersey sales
Higher consumer spending

A functioning sports ecosystem creates circulation of money within society.

Players, workers, and business owners earn more, spend more, invest more, and create more jobs. Clubs traveling across states spend money in hotels, restaurants, transportation, and entertainment. Fans travel too. Local economies grow naturally.

Countries like the UK have built massive service economies around entertainment, sports, finance, and tourism despite limited natural resources. Saudi Arabia is heavily investing oil money into sports, tourism, science, and education because they understand the future.

So why can’t Nigeria use its resource wealth to build strong scientific education, local sports leagues, agriculture, tourism, and infrastructure?

Imagine if universities were properly funded:

Agriculture departments could run large commercial farms
Universities could produce food at scale
School sports systems could discover and develop talents
Communities around universities would benefit economically
Students would gain practical experience and employment opportunities

Nigeria has enormous land and water resources, yet we waste them.

Instead of investing in productive sectors, we spend billions maintaining luxurious lifestyles for politicians and former public office holders. The country is supposedly poor, yet political elites continue to live extravagantly while ordinary citizens are told to “endure hardship.”

The painful truth is this:
Nigeria is rich for politicians but poor for the masses.

Many politicians and their families enjoy luxury properties abroad, top healthcare, private education, and elite lifestyles, while citizens struggle with inflation, insecurity, unemployment, and collapsing infrastructure.

Meanwhile, we come online shouting “Naija no dey carry last,” but honestly, in many critical sectors, we are carrying last.

If you remove:

Oil money controlled by political elites
Stolen public funds
Remittances from Nigerians abroad
Internet and tech-related income

You will realize that the average Nigerian has extremely weak purchasing power.

We need to stop deceiving ourselves and start demanding competence, structure, and long-term thinking.

Countries like South Africa, Morocco, Tunisia, Algeria, Botswana, and Namibia are getting many things right in sectors where Nigeria continues to struggle despite having more resources.

Oil has become more of a curse than a blessing because we never truly used it to industrialize, educate, innovate, or build productive systems. Instead, we imported luxury while neglecting science, manufacturing, sports, tourism, and infrastructure.

Nigeria has the talent, population, land, water, and natural resources to become one of the strongest countries in the world. But until we stop celebrating noise over results, very little will change.

Wake up, Nigerians.

Good question!
And I really want the bulabahs to answer the question.

helinues:
Your steady 6 months blocking just expired some mins ago but you have suddenly resumed the over 5 years trolling

Is the years of trolling a curse guy

Are you tired of the blocking?
That reminds me, there was a time you made a post castigating people that always blocking their fellow nairalanders. So what really happened in your case?
Should we now say that you castigate people for the same thing you are guilty of?

helinues:
You guys are really learners. So una still believe this gaslighting of a thing will work.

Una still have a long way to go in politics

Judging from what you just said, that means you and your likes were gaslighting SE then with una State sponsored insecurity?

helinues:
The real voters are not on social media. They won't even discuss politics with you as they know which direction they are going.

You guys can continue fabricating things on your head and be jubilating about it

So you are telling us now that, the real voters are so dumb that they don't know what is social media and it's power?

The social media that gave APC the power and, leverage in talking power from PDP is now useless according to you

helinues:
This boy wan pass him boundary again

But na your lord and personal saviour gave him the permission to cross the boundary.

This man no go allow Obi-liar drink water drop cup.

Before calling a private citizen "lair", what have you lots done about the ugly oyo incident?

Obi is not supposed to be your problem if you know what you are doing.

Counterigbolies:
no b only kwaks, na kwashiorkor

Go to the north n hear what they feel about your packaged fraud, even kwankwanso as presidential aspirant only won kano so tell me how they will vote him as deputy to yes daddy?

Same man who was telling the church to take back their country like say na only christian dey Nigeria

Let campaign start proper n u will see how Dem go play his 2023 film in d north

Ok, na timibu get good record for north abi?
Keep deceiving yourself.

This is the handiwork of tinibu and his goons.

favor914:
Quite obvious that u are unemployable, u really have so much time to be monitoring domperignon posts?

Go to the business or properties section, please leave politics alone.

The same way una dey always create meaningless threads attacking Obi who happens to be a private citizen.

Is that not joblessness at it's peak on una side?

DomPerignon:
Your linear thought process hinders you from understanding the level of rejection you and your Giringori will get this election cycle.

Pele in advance

Even your fellow bulabahs don dey avoid your threads like plaque
If you doubt me, how many posts did you get from your fellow bulabahs on this post?

DomPerignon:
The ongoing APC primaries has served Giringorists aka the disobidients a heavy wake-dah-fck-up cup of coffee

Most notably is that of the Delta North Senatorial primaries that saw Regina's former sugar daddy husband lose woefully to Okowa .

Obidients are no longer insisting and threatening civil war if their candidate is not announced yesterday and Tinubu thrown in a dungeon, but are now hoping on possibilities that are seeing their odds falling by the day.

Prior, Giringorists had this line of saying:

"Peter Obi will be your President whether you like it or not".

This inspired me to create a counter meme with a thread here declaring the very opposite that:

"Peter Obi will never EVER be President of Nigeria".

With his free ticket secured, Giringori has sacrificed his already dwindling grassroot support that he transferred from LP to the ADC .

None of those foot soldiers decamped with him and NDC is now postponing deadlines for their forms because outside Isolo constituency and in parts of Abuja, no one is buying their forms.

Giringori has sacrificed grassroot support in place of a convenient dead on arrival free ticket.

Even staunch Giringorists are now using "if" in place of "will" in promoting their candidate.

Lmfao!

Nairalanders should verify every post from this op because, he is the last person on this planet that cannot say the truth.

I don talk my own o!

DomPerignon:
Osun's annual cocoa production dwarfs your entire SE economy.

Oyo has a bigger economy than the entire SE


Don't even try to compare with Ogun.

The only SW state that is comparable to Anambra is Ekiti and all indices given population density and availability of land plus available solid minerals that are yet to be exploited, Ekiti still beats your entire SE.

The only viable state in the SE is Enugu owing to land availability, natural gas deposits.

The rest of the SE is a net negative overcrowded shetle

I really don't know what you find interesting in lying.

Counterigbolies:
they owe less because they don't have anything to stand in to take loans n loans company don't give out loans to poor region

The rich get loans while d poor do not, it's simple economic equation

This is exactly the reason why I see every bulabah as a chronic liar.

This one is calling a region that has the highest gas reserve in Africa "poor". No be juju be dat?

DomPerignon:
Are they not repaying their loans?

The reason SE is low on the table is because they don't generate enough money to get as much loans.

If as a salary earner, you earn 20 times above minimum wage, you can borrow more against your earnings than some one on minimum wage.

This your table has nothing to do with accountability on the part of your SE governors but just shows how poor the states they govern are.

Apart from Lagos which other SW state do you think generates money more than other states in Nigeria? And don't forget that the money that lagos is generating is, as a result of the seaport there. And Nigerian government made it so by refusing to create other viable seaports in SE and SS.

WizardOfNG:
Well-said. Yet we know those who are too prejudiced and bigoted to ever reason properly and objectively.

Their existence revolves around fighting and attempting to discrediting those they hate primordially.

The bolded is exactly how you and your cohorts behave.

TokoEkambi:
You lot love projecting yourselves.

What you do you mean by that?

SadiqBabaSani:
The ruling party must stop behaving as if they are the opposition.

As a ruling party seeking to remain in power, you should be able to convince Nigerians on why you should continue in power based on what you have achieved so far in the past 11yrs your party have been in power.

APC wake up

Exactly my problem with them.

sweetsandy4luv:
Inibehe Effiong Questions Nigerians over Tinubu style of leadership, spark serious reactions online as the human rights lawyer says those still supporting President Bola Tinubu despite rising hardship, insecurity, and economic challenges are the real problem.

Barrister Inibehe Effiong is trending online again after calling out Nigerians who still defend President Bola Tinubu even with the current hardship in the country.

The lawyer made the comments in a post that quickly started making rounds on X and Facebook.

According to him, the painful part of Nigeria’s politics is that everybody suffers whenever leadership fails, including the same people defending the government every day online.

“When kidnappers invade communities and schools, they do not separate Tinubu/APC supporters from those who are against the regime,” he wrote.

He also questioned why many Nigerians still support the government even with the complaints about insecurity, hunger, and the economy.

People don’t really see Inibehe as somebody that waits for permission before speaking. Back during the EndSARS protests, his name was always flying around online because he kept speaking on what protesters were facing and criticizing how the government handled the situation. That period was really when many Nigerians started noticing him more.

Since then, he has stayed active online, especially anytime politics starts causing arguments on social media.

A big reason people are reacting to what he said is because many Nigerians are already angry and exhausted about the situation of things in the country. Prices of food have gone up badly, transport money is stressing people daily, and insecurity is still something many families complain about almost every day.
That is why some people agreed with him immediately.

Some users online said Nigerians are simply tired and angry about the situation of things. Others said the hardship in the country has become too obvious for anybody to ignore.

Still, not everybody agreed with him.


Some people felt he was talking like the government has completely failed already, while others said Tinubu has not even spent enough time in office yet for people to write him off like that. Inibehe Effiong Questions

There were also Nigerians who felt the whole political space online has become too toxic lately because both supporters and critics insult each other almost every day.

But the post kept spreading anyway because the issues he mentioned are things many Nigerians already complain about daily — hardship, insecurity, and the general frustration people feel about the country right now.

For now, reactions remain divided. While some Nigerians praised Inibehe for saying what many people are thinking, others believe constant criticism without solutions will not change anything.

CounterIgbolies, this Akwaibomite wants to know why you and your cohorts are supporting tinibu.

DomPerignon:
Nigeria will continue .

We will just do the necessary weeding of waste

Nigeria will not continue if any government should do that because, it will send wrong signal to some of those Igbos that worked against MNK, thinking that Nigeria is a better option.

Parachoko:
You're ignorant bro.

Ironsi introduced the Unitary System of Government into Nigeria.

Gowon only split the 4 regions into Numerous States.

The regions were already Weakened by Ironsi

No! It's either you are ignorant or, you choose to allow hate to cloud your reasoning. The first paragraph of the picture I posted said it's Gowon that abolished regionalism so, I really don't know what you are saying.

DomPerignon:
By God, if God bless me and I become President , the first thing I will do is to drive you all back to your cursed village.

Exactly my prayers. Because that will definitely bring Nigeria to an end.
