NoIgboSoundTueh: Nigerians are not buying your silly propaganda. We are voting for good antecedent, person with track record of success , We are not voting for people who want to replace Buharis tyranny with their own form of tyranny.PO is a daft person(his bsc results is a evidence). He has no legacy in Anambra. Anyone is better than him
What is his B Sc. result like? Before you yap third class without evidence, it's not.
Also add the results of all the international institutions he attended including the fact that he was chairman of a commercial bank in Nigeria. Besides, he is sharper than your candidate. Although at 87 and with a history of drugs and substance abuse, it can be excused. But the question is, is Nigeria ready for another shadow president?
If he doesn't have a drug past, he should sue Reno and David Hundenyin. Even Mexico and Columbia did not allow any of their drug lords to rule them.
LegendHero: Before I respond to you, are you Igbo? If yes, my response will be useless to you. But anyways I will.
Check Buhari votes he got in the SW in 2011 and those that he got in 2015 and come back here with your yam legs to tell us Tinubu got no influence in the West.
Walahi Jonathan can NEVER win 2011 election in the SW with that much margin if Tinubu did not support him.
Even Tinubu himself confessed to that in 2015.
The first part of your reply is completely unnecessary. But it's fine. Tinubu is a politician, he can confess to anything that favours him as long as he gains political mileage from it. The 2011 election was a north vs South affair. The northern caucus of the PDP had met and presented a candidate to face Jonathan in the primaries.
Obasanjo supported Jonathan with the argument that minorities should also have their way in government. He preached the message well enough and some key northern figures accepted. Tinubu is not the GOD OF THE SOUTH WEST.
Many people in the south saw the bullying. Remember BUHARI's dogs and baboons threat that led to the untimely death of 11 Youth Corps members from the South serving in the North.
ATIKU, the unifier famously said during the primaries that if Jonathan makes peaceful change difficult, he will inadvertently be making violent Change inevitable. The change didn't happen but we saw the violence against young Nigerians from the south in the north.
After the north lost in the PDP, Obasanjo moved to pacify them, with the agreement that Jonathan will do a single term in office.
That being said, the mood affected the votes at the time. Talking about 2011
By 2015, Jonathan has squandered his goodwill and it was obvious. In addition, all the forces that aligned with him had abandoned him. In the South West, Obasanjo was more instrumental to Jonathan than Tinubu. Except you are of the view that Tinubu is a snitch that threw Mallam Nuhu Ribadu under the bus.
On a final note, did Tinubu also help Yar'Adua in 2007?
I expect you to put your fish brain aside and be reasonable for once.
As mighty as Tinubu is to you, PDP dey win House of Assembly and house of representatives seats for Lagos. So much for the god of the south west.
seunmsg: Peter Obi’s billboards are all over the south west. A thread was opened recently to talk about Peter Obi’s billboard in Ibadan. So, what exactly is Henry Shiled’s point? Has anybody touched Obi’s billboard in the South west?
The idiot dropped the address so that toxic Peter Obi supporters can go and destroy the billboard. It’s so unfortunate that intolerant cretins like this guy are the ones shaping Peter Obi’s campaign.
He dropped the address so you can go and verify. Nothing will happen to the billboard, you can quote me in December and I'll go there and do a video to show you that it's still standing. We don't have MC Oluomo here in the East.
That being said, he was specific about Lagos, not south west.
LegendHero: —Atiku don dey contest for this presidency of a thing since 1993. He was on the presidential ballot on multiple occasion BUT he is not desperate.
—Peter Obi the butcher of Awkusu who jumped from APGA-APC-PDP. Left PDP few months ago because the bingo cannot dare face Atiku/Wike and ran to labor to get their ticket IS NOT desperate.
—But Asiwaju who left the scenes since 2007 and just contesting for presidency the first time without changing party is desperate according to ObiTUARY zombies.
Jagaban and Jonathan met, how is that your headache? Even the said Jonathan knew the role Asiwaju played for him in 2011 election that made him win all states in the SW except Osun. Jonathan is not foolish like Obingo people.
Quote me anywhere, ASIWAJU did not play any role to support Jonathan in 2011. That was when the merger talks with Buhari began and was stalled. The mood in 2011 was that a minority should be given a chance. Y'all yap about south west voters as if they are fools. Even in Lagos, Tinubu does not deliver a landslide in all election. Check the margin for 2015 and 2019. TINUBU DOES NOT CONTROL THE SOUTHWEST, the South West vote based on conviction.
Tinubu, ATIKU and OBI are defectors. Don't market Tinubu on that basis because he left the Alliance for Democracy AD.
Peter Obi has never been a member of the APC. Get your facts right.
Finally as for your obituary, May your soul rest in peace
marenalexander7: Tell him now. This man peter obi has set his campaign to churches meaning that he has religion agenda but we muslims are observing him carefully.
Post any video where he spoke in any of those church visits. Buhari visited churches in 2014/2015 and Tinubu has been to different mosques to worship too. Why is Peter's own different? Please observe objectively.
TonyeBarcanista: This reality is only known to the political enlightened. Some people assume falsely that their influence on Social Media is synonymous to them being a political heavyweights even when they lack basic knowledge of the rudiments of politicking and electioneering
Please go to Kenya and do a little study. Let me know when you return.
citygarden: When you know that, why can't you all migrate to Anambra and vacate Lagos. Is like you are on drugs before posting this nonsense
The writer already identified your type and have made it clear that this thread is not for you but your coconut head will not allow you.
Tell me your tribe and prove to me that your people are not in other parts of the country and I will give you 5k USD. Clearly you don't understand what migration is
Bola Tinubu stands tall and head over Peter Obi in terms of achievements and development
I have personal issues with him based on politics.. of 2023
But I have never deny his political sagacity and consciousness
Obi no get that.
Forget media noise and online likes and shares that add nothing in live and on social media
OBi has never raised any one .. not even boy boy in igbo language .. nobody ! Nwa boi.. sef
Obi has never raised any thief.....not even a petty thief.
Power to the people Sai Waziri Adamawa
The very Next President of Nigeria
After cleaning up your mess up there, let me tell you that Obi is an employer of labour in thousands and the number of families that survive from his businesses far outweigh the number of demi gods that your Tinubu have raised. He raised them through his efforts or he just plugged them in government to give him returns? Please be specific.
Ebi2233: Stop deceiving yourself. Thats Ojukwu party and Igbo's believe Ojukwu and he was alive then and campaigning with it. If he knows so, why didn't Obi stay in the Apga?
Chekwas Okorie formed APGA. Ojukwu joined at about the same time as Peter Obi. Remember that APGA lost even in Anambra State when Ojukwu contested for the presidency in 2003. After the restoration of Peter's mandate in 2006, he made Ojukwu the national leader of the party as a mark of respect. Please don't rewrite history, at least not while some of us who are insiders are still around.
DigitalLawyer: Hello nairaland, I need your candid advice on this matter.
I am in my early 30’s. I am married and have been so married for 5 years now but I look very young like a single dude. Going back in time, it was the year 2017 during my youth service. I met this girl in my place of primary assignment. I got attracted to her and approached her for a date but she refused and maintained we could be good friends. She said I was not ready or rich enough to marry her. But as time went by, before the end of my service, I fell in love with her and she quite liked me but was dating another guy. Gradually, we started staying together as if we were dating. I was always with her, told her stories, sings for her while she cooks and assisted her in the kitchen. She could not resist my kindness, gentle disposition and above all my innocently handsome looks. She confessed that I am a husband material and wished I was rich enough to marry her. But poor me, I was a youth corper with only 20k salary and 19k allawee. In one of my romantic fits, I declared that in no distant time, I will marry her and I prayed about it. I never knew she was in love with another man. Fast forward till towards the ending of youth service, I made love with her and after passing out parade, she broke the news that she is pregnant for me. I had no job then but that evening I proposed to her without ring ( I had no money to buy ring). She was afraid because she does not want to disgrace her family by giving birth outside wedlock and so she agreed to marry me but we did not have enough money. Even with her own money combined, we cannot do a Traditional wedding and pay our house rent. I broke the news to my dad and knelt down and begged him in tears to support us so that we could successfully get married and settle down. Luckily for me My dad agreed and said that the baby in her womb is his blood and he cannot abandon it in another mans land. That I will marry her and she will give birth to his grandchild. He made some calls and sold one of his lands, divided the money in half and gave me to do a befitting wedding and settle down. I met the family of the girl who at that time did know about the pregnancy and with a bottle of Champagne told them I came to ask for their daughters hand in marriage. The mum accepted me but the dad had reservations as to whether I was buoyant enough to take care of his lovely daughter. But he finally made a remark “ he who do not have today, will have tomorrow” and gave us his blessing. I took her out and we professed love for each other. In the course of the wedding preparation, she lost the baby. After the baby was gone, we assured each other we will go ahead with the wedding because we love each other not because she was pregnant. The wedding was a success and we relocated and started life in another state. It was hard for us initially but I got a job and things became fine.
Along the line she became pregnant again and gave birth to my son. After some time my salary was no longer enough for us. This was how insults found its way into the marriage. she insults and disrespect me at the slightest provocation. She calls me a failure whenever I cannot afford some things we need in the house. At a point my son’s school threatened to send them away from school in 2 days time if I don’t pay their fees. As a result my wife mounted so much pressure on me to look for money but I could find none. I pleaded with her that I was expecting some money in two week’s time from a deal I did but she gave me the insult of my life that day. Because of this I went and borrowed money from someone I was not supposed to meet for money. The insults continued and the disrespect persisted. At any slightest mistake I make in the house, she will rain down insults and threats on me. At one point she threatened to kill me if I cheated on her. As a result of the insults, I lost the love I had for her. The house became a hell to me. I lost my phone and could not buy another phone. I resorted to borrowing people’s phone to use their watsapp to do business calls. Sometimes, my wife refuses to give me her phone to use to speak to some clients. It became obvious, am no longer happy. Even my children started noticing it. The way she forments quarrels over trivial issues in the house and uses words that breaks my heart. At a point, I resumed smoking and drinking inorder to find peace and happiness at least whenever I am high. It was not enough, I started looking for alternative to my happiness. Maybe if I carry another woman it will balance the equation. I would be able to get the joy I never had in the house and be able to bear insults from my wife because another person is giving me joy outside. On a fateful day, I met this girl in a taxi I entered to work. Beautiful, attractive and courteous. She liked me at first meeting and we exchanged contacts. First I was not serious with her until when the sadness in my home continued, I started going after her to get the happiness, I am missing in the house. From meetings with her, I found her very respectful, lively and playful. One could forget all his cares in a moment with her. She is industrious and always expresses her dreams and how she believe she will attain same. I invited her to have dinner date with me after office hour on a fateful day and she complied. During the dinner, I told her about myself and she told me about herself. I told her that all I need is happiness because I am sad and empty. She did not know I am married and she wondered why I said that. She was already waiting for me to ask her to date me so that she will quickly say yes. Because I love to be truthful in all things, I told her I am married but that I am not happy. I was surprised when she told me she liked me and would like to date me despite that fact. She told me she has a boyfriend but he is unserious. Both of us within a short time blended in such a way that we talk, play and act like siblings. It was as if we had been friends before. Although I meet her clandestinely, my love for her grew. I started planning her future with her. Each time we talk we look at each other passionately in the eyes and she said she wished we had met before I got married. The funny aspect of it is that I have come to love her so much that all I need from her is her presence and attention and I have no desire whatsoever to have sex with her. I am not just attracted to her sexually. Each time I see her I smile profusely and she too smiles profusely and we play like little children. We always wished there were no obstacles like my marriage. Because of her, my happiness came back. I was no longer sad and at home my wife noticed my new countenance and that I am no longer interested and started Changing. Above all, the money I was expecting came, for now I am okay. She easily got whatever she asked for in the house and currently she has completely changed (not sure if she is pretending or not). Currently I am happy. Currently the beautiful innocent girl I met is in a dilemma because she does not know my fate with her. I kept wishing i married her. She keeps wishing I were not married. I showed her my children’s pictures and she loved them and asked me about them always.
Sorry for the long story but I am in a dilemma. Please I need your advice, I now love her more than my wife. In fact I no longer love my wife, we just live strictly as legally married husband and wife and nothing more. But I now love this girl so much that I am afraid of losing her because she is the one that gave me joy to be able to withstand the depression in my house. Now that peace has returned to my house what should I do. I don’t know whether my wife is pretending or she is fully changed. But I feel for the girl, I love her, she is someone I can live with for a 100 years without getting tired of loving her.
Please advice me. Please no insult and abeg don’t judge me, I have not touched her.
Correct me If am wrong, Buhari does not hold any traditional title in his native state of Katsina, except all those now conferred on his by virtue of him being the president. There are truly modest people. You should also know that he is a 'church man' so to speak.
Jonathan also had no traditional titles before he became president. I may be wrong but the point is that it is not compulsory.
richie240: Is he not an OSU? Is OSU caste system still.not in practice in alaigbo?
While some tribes still uphold the practice, many communities have abolished the practice. PETER OBI IS NOT ONE. NEITHER HIM NOR HIS MATERNAL AND PATERNAL FAMILY TREE ARE OSU.
Stop being a gossip by listening to gossip and glorifying same in an international forum like this.
Is there any year Jonathan never personally signed a letter celebrating Tinubu's birthday even after office?!!
Please oh let us verify before they begin throwing lies google is available
Facts...
1: NorthEast voted massively for Abiola and Kingigbe
2: People like Gen Yar'Adua died in prison for Abiola and Democracy, Shehu Sani also went to prison
3: Musa Yar'Adua and Jonathan were hand picked by Obasanjo to thank North and SouthSouth
4: Yar'Adua died and people like Obasanjo , Tinubu and Soyinka went to beg North for Jonathan to complete his term and Jonathan himself agreed to just one term
5: Jonathan tried to send Tinubu to jail stating he had foreign bank account in Chicago, same account that Tinubu was using to fight for Nigerian democracy, Jonathan even tried to bully Obasanjo
6: North wanted to finish Yar'Aduas term and they wanted Buhari we supported them and gave them Pastor Osinbajo as Vice
7: North again picked Shetima yet you want Tinubu to reject their choice
.
Tinubu no follow abeg. In 2011, he proposed an alliance with Buhari but it didn't work out and he had to field Malam Nuhu Ribadu as the presidential candidate of the defunct ACN.
richie240: Dhurrr... I heard he's OSSU, so what do u expect!
You heard. And from the latter part of your statement, you already concluded. That's pathetic on your part. You can as well hear from me that Nigeria is Richer than the USA and China combined. You can quote me anywhere.
BATified2023: hoe about peter obi causing chaos between catholic n Anglican when he was governor?
What about sacking non anambra workers from civil service?
Tinubu is d only person who employed different tribes from all over Nigeria n a typical example is joe igbokwe
Name just 1 outsider I mean non Igbo in peter obi cabinet?
The burden of proof is on you that alleges. If you can prove your first two allegations, I will give you 20 names to debunk your last allegation. Remember that his wife is not Igbo. That's for starters.
Always looking for what to pin on Peter Obi but the man's white has refused to stain. Try harder
grandstar: I don't have the 'correct' stats. Ethiopia for a long time has been a dictatorship. It's only under the current president that there's been far greater freedoms.
The previous government of late Zenawi was a benigh dictatorship. Anyway, he remained a dictator. The government may want to publish a low figure to the public in order to portray themsrlves as prudent. It's something China does all the time.
Even Chinese produced economic growth stats aren't taken seriously by outsiders. The Communist party's legitimacy stems from them able to bring prosperity through rapid economic growth . All economic growth stats eminating from the China must reflect this.
I agree with you on this. I recommend you read this book titled: THE BEAUTIFUL TREE. China is built on falsehood.
grandstar: These guys think it's a walk in the park. Many fail to contend with the challenges of building with a highly urbanized setting like Lagos with all manner of obstructions from underground pipes and telephone lines to built up structures and even the Lagoon.
I doubt those Ethiopian stats are accurate. I'm sure they are fuddled with. China is very notorious for this.
KingKO22: At lest we are going to have first Light Rail by state government since 1960.
What's your state doing with its allocation ? If all your governors are holly than the, I think we should having about 36 trail projects in different parts of the country. But you are busy castigating the only working and walking state in Nigeria
Trash from Zombidients
Is that how you defend corruption?? 181 million as against 1.5 billion dollars?? It is well. With the potentials that Lagos has, it should be better than cape Town, Cairo and Casablanca, but alas, it is still a local champion. Mega shit
ObosiUkwalla: Tinubu milked Lagos dry and still doing it to thisday. God will not allow him access to Nigeria's treasury.
Where did you think he got the 25k USD he gave to delegates. My uncle is still cruising with the money. Anytime I travel home since after the primaries and we argue politics, he reminds me that the palm wine I am drinking was from the money. He is a known chieftain of the APC and I wear labour party vests to his house. We are family but we differ politically.
kenzo25: May be you forgot when the old bar beach over flow back then in Lagos May be u forgot how Oshodi was May u u forgot how Abuleegba Was and May be u forgot how pencinema was. Lagos has a blue print designed by the progressive .
Fashola started Oshodi and Ambode completed it. Ambode also remodelled Berger. Why does nobody know about this una master plan until now? Please share the master plan document make we follow una read biko
kenzo25: But why is Lagos population surging if you know Enugu better or has more infrastructure. U better be calming down when u post myopic issues about lagos.
Lagos posseses an advantage that other states don't. Don't forget that it is the economic capital of Nigeria. if you give me a job of 700k in Enugu and the same job for 1 million in Lagos, I will prefer Enugu. Anybody who have lived in both cities will understand. Standard of living will be higher in Enugu, while the cost of living will be higher in Lagos
Honlucas: If you notice ASUU is yet to release Memo about extending the strike... State university are already planning to opt out if ASUU extend this strike...
State university are already planning on forming their own union because of this...
Though FG is currently meeting with ASUU to end this strike......
N:B: ASUU is yet to release Memo this is not ASUU we know there is something currently cooking behind close doors
Every new chairman of ASUU initiates strike action to shine. They enjoy the attention.
Holluwhakemmy: Do not ask a pregnant woman how many months gone? Do not ask someone when is their child(ren) starting school . Don't ask a couple what are they waiting for, why delay in conception
Especially the pregnant woman own. I was discussing with a married friend sometimes last year and she excused herself and told me she needed to attend to something. She drove herself to the hospital and delivered few minutes later. Never knew she was due for delivery.
