Ekweremadu is far better than Peter Obi. Peter Obi did nothing in Anambra state in a whole 7 years, and that's why his only achievement is he has one watch, 2 shoes and one house in Onitsha, blatant liar, they will say it because they know what Nigerians want to hear, ask him what he did to Anambra people, he will tell you he didn't spend Anambra money, he left them in bank, while people were starving and dying on bad roads.

Nigerians never disappoint, they fall for all these tricks, remember how Buhari also played a simple life, northerners will kill you if you publicly insult him then, one even drank gutter water for him, he was like I don't need salary as a president, I have just one house, I need just 4 years etc.

Only in Nigeria a governor will fail woefully, and people will still be fighting for them, Obi is going nowhere, after all una noise, in osun Obi got 2k votes, while APC and PDP got 375k and 400k respectively, in Ekiti Obi got 3k, while APC won, in Ebonyi, he couldn't even get one local government. Why, people are getting wiser, the youth are tired of theories, any governor that didn't do well will not move forward as a politician, we are voting the candidate with the best state in terms of infrastructure, security, investment, HDI, revenue generation.

says someone that probably supported Buhari and is supporting Tinubu & APC

well Muric has a point. It is an entrance exam into Lagos public schools funded by taxpayers (Muslims and Christians inclusive). Why do you have CRK questions in an exam labelled general paper? They should have balanced it by introducing two IRK questions.

religious education should be a choice. There should be no compulsion.

you at least need to have someone experienced that can mentor them

ivandragon:
Hmm...

There is no escaping the fact that BAT had connections with the drug business at the time.

What I think is in dispute is the nature & level of his involvement. He seemed to be more involved in the money laundering side of things than actual sale & distribution. This is probably why he was able to get off with forfeiture of funds instead of jail time.

indeed

thebosstrevor1:
I will read first before commenting, i will advise you all to do that too.

There is no evidence to show that tinubu was a drug lord in that investigation.

Was he involved in money laundering, yes

Was he accused of not paying tax in the US - Yes

The real drug lord is Lee andrew edwards, he was a supplier of white Heroin to Tinubu's Cousin.

Tinubu was a money Mole for his drug dealer counsin.

The Money in Tinubu US bank account ( $1.2M) was ceased because the fbi linked it to his cousin Heroin Business


For anybody that prefer the truth over FAKENEWS.

Exactly. this didnt show that he was a drug lord but that he was laundering money for the cartel in which his cousin was a member

Ttalk:
This is a very detailed and comprehensive analysis from an unbiased writer. Nairaland emotional analyst especially the Obidient novice can learn a hard truth and swallow the bitter pill that 2023 has since been won and lost and they are not in the equation.

The fact remains that Obi at 60 is putting up his last show in the political scene and would be no where to be found after 8year of SW and another 8year of the north. By the time there would ever be any opportunity for contest, Obi would be 86years old

It's painful but that is the hard truth

your math is off. Obi would be Atiku's age mate after the 16 years

Penguin2:
Taaaaaah

Kwankwaso was captured on camera saying Northerners will not vote for an Igbo man which is what some Tinubu urchins have latched on to give themselves some hope.

But what is there is that right now, Kwankwaso can go to hell with his arrogance.

In 2003, Northwest and Northeast voted for Buhari butt Obasanjo still won.

In 2011, Northwest and Northeast voted Buhari again but Jonathan still won.

Peter Obi can still win without votes from Northwest and Northeast.

Besides if things remain as they are right now, Atiku will win Some part of Northeast with Tinubu winning the rest. While Obi is likely to win Christian votes from that region.

Kwankwaso will win Kano. Some people have also said he will win Jigawa.

Tinubu is likely to take other Northwest states while Obi will win Christian votes in that region again.

That leaves us with North Central where Obi will win Benue, Plateau and Abuja; he will do well in Nasarawa too, which should ultimately culminate to him winning North Central.

Obi will also win Southeast and Southsouth scandalously.

Then garner considerable votes in Southwest especially if Tinubu finally floats a Muslim/Muslim ticket.

Do the math and you Peter Obi’s victory without Kwankwaso.

We need to have two obidient zones - pragmatic obidients and delusional obidients

I think Peter Obi is the best Man for the job but if you think he will win this election, then you are being delusional. I am voting for him nonetheless but I dont want people to be dismayed later if they see his chances are bleak.

This election is between Atiku and Tinubu. As at today, the winner is Tinubu. I think this could change in the coming months depending on how NorthWest Sentiments go

KashApp:
I read sometimes during the Worker's Day that Ogun State is also owing Pensioners.. Omo, that state need serious deliverance from bad leaders...with all the resources they have, still nothing to show. Is it by showing some stupid IGR when it does not affect the people's lives positively and even workers. Stupid leaders we have in this countryOne day, you people will stop this madness. Igbos will attack Yoruba, Yoruba will attack Igbo.

as in the matter tire me. Everything is tribalism . I cant wait for that day

VoteTinubu2023:
I doubt the pictures are genuine.

Maybe he is not homeless after all then. We might have been misled.



Vote TINUBU 2023. Vote APC.

well homeless does not matter. What matters is that he is a minor so there is a sure Human Trafficking charge as there was no parental consent to travel with the boy

secondly, the boy cannot consent to be an organ donor so the organ trafficking charge is also sure.

the only thing left for the judge to ascertain is that the Ekeremadus were aware of the boy's true age before travelling with him to the UK. once that is confirmed, they are in for a long time. if not, they could yet negotiate a plea to get a lesser sentence.

judithjam:
Yesterday they were calling Nigeria zoo,and praying for the destruction of the zoo,same people are here telling us to vote obi...LOL what a joke

Who is they. The major demographics supporting him are young southern nigerians.

He isn't some IGBO presidential candidate.

Canvass:
As in it's insane. Just Kogi and Kwara, which are not even true northern states, getting above 100 and Kaduna prides itself as the 'centre of learning'. It's a similar story in UTME and WAEC with southerners dominating but the northerners getting admitted on very low scores. After graduating, the quota candidates get all the sensitive jobs while the better equipped southerners settle for lesser positions. The ineptitude eventually shows when they become leaders and successfully ruin the economy.

Nigeria may not be great until we get fundamentals like this right.

I agree

Samunique:
I won't be surprised if things turn out this way.

Since APC and Tinubu have decided to be foolish, and PDP greedy, the best option now MAY BE Peter Obi.

Though Nigerian political climate presently does not favour him bcs of the gross corruption that has eaten deep into the system. But then let him fight and those who believe in him, he may pull a surprise !

After all he's better than those two old men !

APC missed their chance in Osinbajo/Ameachi and now they're in dilemma and confusion !

nah. they will only tell them to get their PVC. They cant tell them who to vote for

Crixxx:
Lol. You see afonja, you see gayism, sodomy etc Bread and butter

because of one person, you insult an entire tribe.

tell me which tribe is the other cross dresser guy "they didnt caught me"

Fahdiga:
Good riddance. The remaining 30% should also leave. You guys are agents of destruction and sorrow

they are Nigerians and deserve to live anywhere in the country

That murderers allegedly from their tribe killed scores of persons doesnt mean every member of that tribe is guilty

Parachoko:
At a mosque in Abuja, an Alfa was suspended for criticising Buhari, people wailed bitterly about it. They said there is freedom of speech, and the Alfa shouldn't have been suspended indefinitely for castigating Buhari.

I hope those set of people wey wail against the removal of the Alfa will also wail bitterly about the removal of Father Ejike Mbaka for expressing his opinion.

Priests are allowed to criticise the government of the day. Fr. Mbaka criticised Jonathan's government.

But you are not allowed to tell the congregation who to vote for and whom not to vote for

Then you tell your congregation that you made someone governor and the person did not come to thank you with money. It cannot get more uncatholic than that

osinbanjoisaliar:
Ehen I don come. I tell Tinubu Olodos and him campaign make dem acknowledge sey na my suggestions and report Tinubu use win primaries. But dem no talk anything. Dem no even send me recharge card. So Atiku if you wan win, listen carefully and do exactly wetin I talk. Anybody wen dey Atiku campaign, listen and tell am wetin I write

very amoral piece. no 4 is the real weapon.

pocohantas:
I am tired of you. Lmao!!!

what did I do. The guy didnt read my message and assumed I was igbo because i was talking about tribalism

blazhykowskyi:
Your igbo parents had a bias against igbos?

not sure you read my message. My parents aren't igbo

Olatunji1929:
Is it by force to vote expecially when you don't trust all the candidates?atiku and tinubu are useless candidates and Peter stand no chance under labour party I don't have any pvc and I will not bother myself to get one

voting is a right and not an obligation so you are within your rights.

However if your reason for not voting a candidate is because he stands no chance. then you should understand the causative effect.

he actually stands no chance because you would not vote for him.

Mynd44:
I said it before that it is immoral of a priest to deny anyone salvation or time with God because that person choses not to vote. This is just thrash behaviour.

not just trash but illegal according to the laws of the church

blazhykowskyi:
So you agree your parents were tribalists?

indeed they were but didnt realise it like most of you. They had a subconscious bias against igbos but didnt know it

nameo:
Doñt be stuppid, goon

I am not from the SE.

By the way, i believe that different regions of this country have been insulting themselves for a long time now. Not just the SE.

The inter-ethnic insults is from small-minded nitwits, like yourself(ala your comment above), who really have nothing intellectually meaningful to offer.

dont mind those tribalists. Just suceed in convinving those around you to be detribalised and little by little, we will achieve the goal of a detribalised Nigeria. I have done that with my parents.

ClassicMan202:
But come to think of this.... What if Peter Obi is just a ploy to distract Ndi Igbo from the call for Independence.. They will just prop him up, get all igbos to support him, then turn round and disgrace him on election day, so from then hence forth any call for independence will be rubbished as loser talk

I am not Ndigbo. I do not care about your Biafra. I care about good governance in Nigeria and about Peter Obi. Peter Obi represents Nigeria and not Ndigbo or Biafra

PassingShot:
I have read a lot of people saying "no to Muslim-Muslim ticket" even before Asiwaju emerged. Now that he has emerged as the standard bearer of APC with Atiku as the major challenge to him, I wonder why a Muslim-Muslim ticket of Tinubu presidency is not better than a return of the presidency to north possibly for another eight years after 8 years of PMB.

Like or loathe APC, it has demonstrated being a truly progressive party by standing with a return of the presidency to the South even after Atiku had emerged as PDP's candidate. PDP damned everything common sense by making Atiku emerge with possibility of keeping the presidency in the north and a lot of people seem not to care because PDP is doing what they need to do to win the election without considering fairness and equity.

I am strongly convinced that when the time comes, majority of voters will side with an APC' Muslim-Muslim ticket which returns presidency to the south and reject a Muslim-Christian ticket which keeps the presidency to the north for another eight years to make it 16 straight years of Northern dominance.

e don turn to northern dominance. you guys never cease to amaze me.

HIGHESTPOPORI:
Thats why Peter obi is gaining momentum

Indeed. I am happy and content for a third force message to be sent through Peter Obi

it will not make him president but the message will be there that the status quo can be challenged.

There are just not enough detribalised Nigerians to make Nigeria work.

realistically, BAT is the next president of Nigeria

nsiba:
Tinubu will fail miserably in the South South and SEast, he will never be president

i think he is a terrible choice for President but, mark my words, he will be President

make e quiet for there jor. Who is he deceiving?

BAT is a tougher opponent for Atiku than Osibanjo and Reno knows this.

Sad sha that Atiku and BAT are our choices in an election

MadamVanessa:






Of all the presidential aspirants to support, Buba Galadima think that it's Tinubu that Buhari will give his support to. What a day dreaming. Anything to make Tinubu happy is highly welcome.

you didnt read the article

Ceenachi:
Op
please can you tell the judges of social media how the lady was dressed.
Some of the sexual assault we are experiencing today is from we ladies, some will dress without undies while some without bra, some live to go naked in the name of fashion

Unless someone who never visited such places will think morality is there - ladies of nowadays hmmm I fear this our generation

37 likes and counting for such a terrible comment.

Imagine if a gay person or a very old and ugly lady touches/grabs a guys crotch because he/she saw a bulge

thats a valid analogy for your comment

oluseyiforjesus:
Atiku will make it an easy win for corrupt APC

so who would have made it a difficult win?

BosseJ:
Is this a joke or something? Peter Obi should have stayed in PDP and used his trending popularity as leverage to negotiate for VP slot with Atiku. But his political I.Q is too low to make him see the wisdom in that. He stood the best chance of getting Igbo into Aso rock within 8-yrs minimum (in the event that Atiku wins the presidency), but his ego got the best of him.

maybe it was his integrity that got the better of him.

There were many who said they could have voted for Obi if he wasnt in the PDP but that PDP's corruption will affect him.

truth is. Peter Obi is more hated for his tribe than anything else. If he had stayed in the PDP, we would still see something to say

Abdulqareem:
you're getting it wrong. what we are saying is, don't insult our prophet and religion else you will dealt with decisively. you can criticize us for all i care but our prophet is a no go area.

dont you think that is not compatible with a human society.

Imagine me killing you for insulting my mother because I lover her more than any God/gods

You do realise that calling Jesus a prophet and denying his divinity is blasphemy in Christianity

you do realise that there are those that worship the shaitan you like to stone every year. Should they punish/kill you for this.

the truth is that if blasphemy should result in death then we will all die. The notion of religion itself must necessarily involve blasphemy as my truth is not your truth. Once you pick one religion, your belief system is likely blasphemous to other religions.
