Lol... PDP no longer see APC as their threat while APC no longer see PDP as their main opposition... Obviously Labour Party and Obi are doing a great job. The youths have chosen Peter Obi and there is nothing you agents of stagnation can do about it...

What do you Igbos find difficult to understand about loyal Party men campaigning for electoral win for their affiliated Party candidate?

No wonder all Igbo leaders, from Obi to Kalu, are bed-hopping political prostitute with no dedication to anything or anyone other than their own selfish interest.

mrvitalis:
So tinubu had ideas to develop Nigeria and refused to share them with buhari ?

Ok he did and buhari refused ? So why did you support him again after 4 years of not listening to you ?

The issue is tinubu is a hard sell really

Since the commencement of the 2023 electioneering season, the term 'Obidient' is a slogan that has dominated the media airwaves, especially on social media. Subscribers to the Obidient slogans are Nigerians that are advocates of Chief Peter Gregory Obi, the Presidential candidate of Labour Party. Majority of his supporters are driven by rare display of patriotism coupled with the popular yearning for political change in Nigeria, a handful of his advocates have taken to the extreme of portraying him as an infallible mortal that is at par or a little lower than a sacred deity. To this set of people, it is abominable to criticise, question or express displeasure in Obi's credentials or candidacy

China blowing hot air again, after threatening they won't allow Nancy Pelosi plane to land in Taiwan, now Pelosi has landed in Taiwan, and chilling and spending some days in China.
China making another empty threat, they should expect President Joe Biden in Taiwan by December

Everyone is now seeing clearly the lies and manipulation from a particular candidate and his supporters.
I will always stand for the truth no matter what because I'm not moved by emotions but facts based on past precedents.
Tinubu is the best man for this job come rain come shine 365 days a year.
Let me quickly give you a brief fact about this brilliant politician:

(1) TINUBU was the first politician to start "Economic Summit" this talks about the visionary sagacity of the man.
(2)TINUBU pioneered the "Treasury Single Account (TSA)". This was later adopted by the Federal Government with much success.
(3) TINUBU was about to put an end to electricity problem by starting "Independent Power Project" in partnership with Enron in Lagos state. If not for Obasanjo and PDP government who forced Tinubu to give up the power to national grid, there wouldn’t be the problem of electricity in Lagos state by now.
(4) TINUBU introduced "Digital Economy" to governance through Lagos Tax Administration. I believe he can repeat that at the national level.
(5) TINUBU as a Governor "Created 37 Local Govt. Council Development Areas (LCDAs)". This is a major part of restructuring that many are only clamoring for now.
(6)TINUBU brought innovation to education when he began to appoint Pupils who Excelled Academically as Acting Governor of Lagos.
(7) TINUBU was the first Governor to involve Nigerians from other states to work and become officials of Lagos state government.
(cool TINUBU was first to break the master plan machinery of elections rigging in Nigeria thereby helping to reclaim SouthWest states stolen mandates from PDP.
(9)TINUBU was the first and last Governor who governed his state for years without the full Federal Allocation (FAAC) from Abuja.
(10) TINUBU was the leader who started Telecommunication revolution in Nigeria through Econet before it became a national success story.

Many more things could be said, I believe Tinubu is head and shoulders above any other candidates in this race. No one in Nigeria of today can boast of such achievements.

We aren't in the business of insulting others which has become the Trademark of the supporters of a particular presidential candidate. We want to believe that such character exhibited by such people is the nature of the person they are supporting. So all insults from them are welcomed

MadamVanessa:



If it was to be the other way round would the imam blessed the car for the Anglican priest? Immediately he would remember "Ruling for blessing a car for non Muslim" or it's blasphemous to bless a car for non Muslim.

Zeezenho:
What I see in you is an angry and highly bittered individual with high level of bigotry.i really wander the class of Igbo men you have as friends. May be Igbo boys that don't know different between left and right .

Going back to your episode to sell an unsellable fellow like tinubu let me start with Lagos was in existence before tinubu father was born and have been a mega city every Nigerian built together including myself.

Alhaji lateef jakande is an example of good governors that build Lagos. he built school in practically every avenue in Lagos state build estates everywhere that till date jacande estates is everywhere and are still Lagos state properties not jacandes can you say the same of tinubu? The answer is no

Your tinubu is the worst governor Lagos ever produced.his system of politics is so dirty and uncivilized to the extend that no sane Yoruba man is with tinubu..

Let me give you an example if your tinubu is seriously the should have reproduced a politician he can trust to hand over his political programs to but greed will never allow him to even on his sic bed .

About obi and Igbo men living in lagos.we don't live in tinubu Lagos we live in former Nigerian capital city that we all built together with our common wealth ...

Zeezenho:
Well we voted obj Because he is a Yoruba and we see them as our southern brothers. We igbos will always support our yorubas brothers projects.

derecho:
The intelligent majority can NEVER support Tinubu... Forget that story.Tinubu isn't representing us...As it stands now, only Tinubu slaves are siding with him.

After the elections, we'd settle our differences.
Tinubu is a disaster waiting to continue in Buhari's steps

derecho:
I wonder what or who you refer to as una.You prolly think any one who doesn't agree with your line of thinking is Igbo.

You don't understand what I'm saying. No culture is perfect.
When I use the word "transformed" it's deliberate.
We are first Humans before being Yoruba. Even being omoluabi isn't automatic, there's deliberateness.

Even as bad as many say Igbos are,there are detribalized ones amongst them if not more than us.
If anything at all, we Yorubas are more conscious about our ethnic group than the igbos.

Did you notice most Yorubas that are against Obi are doing so simply because he is Igbo NOTHING more.
Whereas the igbos against Tinubu have other reasons other than Tinubu being Yoruba.

I'm not saying we don't have bigots amongst Igbos But to be honest with you, We Yorubas detest igbos more until Jesus works on our hearts.

Let's stop these thinking abeg.

Image123:
Even when you for one micro 0.01% second try to consider Obi as a choice, the attitude, behaviour, responses and characters of his ipobic followers immediately caution you not to go there.

RulerIAm:
Oga fact-checker, have you fact-checker who ur real father is?

derecho:
Nope bro...we aren't saying the same thing.Everyone is self-centered but it's in degrees.It's not a Yoruba culture to be selfless.It's a conscious and transformational thing.

Did you forget that OBJ is often abused for not using his office to favour yorubas? Why is that?
Remember, OBJ makes statements like :I am not a Yoruba president.

"There's no man who won't heap soil to his side when making a mound"

Not saying OBJ is transformed but it's rare to find selfless individuals.

Zeezenho:
Na lie,igbos rooted for obj like their is no tomorrow.infact 80% of Igbo did then.

lexy2014:
Is it poverty or lack of loan that made the accountant general of the federation to steal 80billion naira?

Is it poverty or lack of loan that makes our politicians to steal on a continuous basis?

How did Tinubus daughters acquire two New York apartments costing at least $1million each?

derecho:
Do you know how many igbos supported June 12?
The issue is not tribe but persons.
OBJ has always been a detribalized Nigerian.

IfnobeGod20:
Are you aware that Lagos has not lived to the bidding of a viable state. Of all states in Nigeria, Lagos is the most indebted state and monthly they generated up to 50B naira. Join that to monthly federal allocation. By now, if truly Lagos had been making judicious use of the monies, the state should have turned to Dubai.
If the monies that had accrued to Lagos since 1999 had found its way into the hands of leaders that had turned the fortune of Dubai around, Lagos would have turned to another heaven on earth.
Every viable economy in the world doesn't joke with tax drive. Parking your car in a public slot, you will be bill for it. The house you built for years, you will yearly or monthly pay tax on it. So tax drive is one of the ways that developed countries survive.
The problem with Nigeria which Lagos also belong is waste. So many conduit pipe and we are not ready to learn and turn a new leave. Until we redefine our governance and stop unnecessary wastage, before the nation can be redefine. If you like give loan of millions to people, failure will surely follow because no enabling environment. The good you bought today by tomorrow the price has changed and your salary is fixed. How would people cope and how would business survive?
So in a nutshell, enabling environment and equal or redistributionof wealth can only bring survival and lessen corruption.
Tinubu is just saying nonsense. People that are thinking for him are no more with him the way they were between 1999-2005. Those crop of people are the one doing the job but him taking the glory because he was the governor then. Without those people, he has been saying nonsense and giving incoherent submission.

OkutaNla:
Abeg rest. Go and vote your Peter Obi and allow us hear word. Na you sabi why e dey pinch your body say the Igbo men in that vid prefer someone else than Obi. I doubt you're even Yoruba sef coz Yorubas are generally politically liberal and don't intimidate nor harass others for exercising their freedom of choice. That's an ipobic/boko-haram behaviour.
