LordAdam16: There it is. You're perfectly fine with Tinubu and APC continuing after Buhari's 8 years. Now who is the Joker?
Anyway, in less than 40 days, it'd be over. And then it'd be back to complaining about bad governance after backing a neophyte who can't win and your second choice being a senile drug dealer with incontinence.
And you get mind dey call other people enemies of this country.
LordAdam16: Yes, I'm unwavering in my support for PDP. Until they make a bigot like Kwankwaso or El-Rufai their flagbearer.
I'd take Atiku over Tinubu. And Obi is siphoning Atiku's votes.
It is naivete to expect Obi to beat Tinubu. As it was naïve to expect Buhari to perform.
You're consistent in that you make perfect the enemy of good.
In 2015, you fought against Jonathan even though he was going to handover to Ribadu who would have handed over to Obi (as he was being groomed by Jonathan to be the next Southern President). And now you're backing the spoiler who'd give Tinubu 8 years. After which some disastrous Northerner like Ganduje becomes the GCFR.
But as long as you feel better about your choices, you don't think about the implications.
-Lord
Huh? I make the perfect enemy of good?
So in your mind, Atiku a know fraudster and lootocrat is what you refer to as 'good' in comparison to an Obi?
I never knew you were such a joker. Instead of you to just say you want your People Deceiving People Party to win so perhaps you may be given an appointment to join in the looting of our common patrimony, you're here pontificating of how Atiku is better than Obi? ..
After 8 years of a Fulani president, you want another Fulani president to take over for 8 years? The nation can go to blazes as long as you get your chance to participate in the plunder with your fraudulent PDP party? If Obi wasnt in the race, I'd rather have a Tinubu and APC win and become president over your Atiku and devilish PDP.
God will disappoint all you enemies of this country. Against all your devilish wishes which you brandish as 'wisdom', Obi will win to all your disappointments.
highchief1: ur dg was indicted for theft keep defending mediocrity.Go to google and check best performed governors in Nigeria and show us the place of Obi.I am not voting any of them but saint Obi is not a goal.
So I am the LP DG? So I and millions of other OBIDIENTS support Obi cos we are looking for appointment? Go and re-read what you wrote again and ask yourself whether it makes any sense to you?
highchief1: I have not interfaced with the millions I am telling u of the person I chatted with.Mind u I am not in Nigeria I’m not voting I do not also care who wins.But I know OBIDIENTs are those angry that they are not benefiting from pdp or apc govt.In Nigeria,when a system favors us it’s called connection when it doesn’t it’s called corruption.Obi is castigating a system he was part of 6 months ago.if pdp had given him ticket he wouldn’t have been castigating them.I don’t live like that bro.
You claim you havent met the millions of people campaigning for Obi, you claim you met only one who is a hungry political jobber looking for pittance, but in your wisdom you think its sensible to then assume that the millions of people supporting Obi are hungry charlatans looking for payouts?
highchief1: yes it’s investment for them.I have someone who is currently pumping money into the movement believing if Obi entered he will get a juicy appointment.these are his words.Are you really hoping those guys really want to save Nigeria?
So the millions of Nigerians voting obi on all social media polls , the multitude of supporters who were attending Obi street walks, the thousands screaming in those churches Obi visited etc, you're basically saying they all support Obi cos they want Obi to give them juicy appointmens if he wins? This is the best reasoning you can come up with?
Zazaza: He never said anything negative about Obi.He is in the PDP and is expected to support his party’s candidate.Please you people should stop making it look like Obidients lack objectivity..
He can support his party with his full chest, no one's going to blame him for campaigning for his party. But attempting to use the 'Igbo Presidency' mantra to deceive the gullible is just a low low for him... If Igbo presidency is really his problem, never has Nigeria come close to achieving an Igbo presidency than now (through Obi). But obviously, because he knows he wouldnt 'eat' from an Obi presidency, an Obi presidency wouldnt count as 'Igbo Presidency' in the world of these clowns....
highchief1: do you the problem some of us have?even the labor party pll are not fighting because they love Nigeria.they are fighting because they also want to deep their hands in same national treasury.obidents are ppl apc and pdp didn’t allow to steal.
So you mean those ordinary Nigerians marching about on the streets, donating their personal money, campaiging rigorously for Obi are all politicians looking for money to steal?
This has to be the most flawed presidential election projection I've seen since this season. @Passingshot obviously still thinks the LP buzz is merely social media noise; he must be amongst those who believe 4 people are sitting in a room shouting Obi Obi
They've always been useless. But I thank God for the 2023 election which is the eye opener.
This is why I've always screamed to anyone who cares to listen that the biggest problem of the SE and the Igbo man are the Igbo elite leaders; this 2023 is a divine eye opener, but will the eyes of the people still be opened?
One or 2 charlattans spring up from nowhere and when they cant dip their hands in the cookie jar, they run into the streets deceiving gullible and ignorant Igbos that the Fulani, the Hausa, the Yorubas and even the British and Americans are the problem of Igbos; giving birth to separatist agitations all over the place. Meanwhile, the true problem of Igbos stares us in the face all along.
A chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Osita Chidoka says the South-East should back the party in the 2023 elections.
While observers believe Labour Party’s Peter Obi who is from the region will disrupt PDP’s dominance in the South-East, the former Aviation Minister said it would be unwise for Igbos to leave the party they have supported since 1999.
“The Igbo position for me is that our significant investment in the PDP for 24 years cannot be thrown away overnight. I remain in the PDP and many Igbos remain in the PDP, ” he said on Channels Television’s Sunday Politics.
He believes that while advocates of an Igbo presidency outside the PDP are not wrong, the main opposition party is the shortest route for the South-East to clinch the country’s top seat.
Conceding that Peter Obi has made significant progress in wooing Nigerians, he maintains that is not enough. According to him, the South-East must move a step closer to make the presidential dream a reality.
“The Igbo presidency is just around the corner. Once an Igbo man is capable of holding on strong in a party and controlling the levers of that party, that is going to happen soon,” the PDP chieftain added.
On the presidential election, Chidoka argued that the PDP is poised to win the exercise, citing the party’s organisational structure and its candidate’s experience and resilience.
“Atiku Abubakar has won the election. It is just a matter of time. When we get to February 25th, the country will say it,” he said.
Atiku, he adds, is capable of mopping up votes across the country. Despite the inter wranglings in the PDP, Chidoka says that won’t affect its candidate’s chances.
The ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) has not done well for the country and thus won’t win votes in many parts of Nigeria, he says.
“They have significantly degraded the capacity of Nigeria as a nation. They have degraded our unity in diversity and our economy,” Chidoka said.
Osita Chidoka too?! This is one of the guys within the traditional political fold who I initially thought had sense. Thank God this 2023 election has really exposed them to be hungry scoundrels and useless scavengers.
Osita Chidoka who one would have thought was a smart, progressive and youthful Nigerian leader is here supporting Atiku under the flimsy guise of 'Igbo Presidency' simply because he wants a chance to dip his hands in the nation's treasury through his party. These guys dont even care about Nigeria's survival (which is really what this 2023 election is about); they only care about their bellies.
meum: The election isn’t just about 25% spread in two-thirds of the 36 states.
A candidate needs to have the highest votes plus the required 25 percent in two-thirds spread in the 36 states of the federation.
Where a clear winner does not emerge, there would be a run-off (second election) between the person with the highest votes and the person with the spread, but not necessarily the second highest votes scored
So 1st position can go into a second election with the candidate that came 4th if he has the 25% spread.
He should aim to achieve highest vote together with the 25% spread to avoid a second election
There's something which isnt clear about the 25% rule. Is Abuja counted as a state?
If a candidate gets 25% in 23 states plus Abuja (i.e. 24 in total), does that satisfy the requirement? Or must it be 24 states plus Abuja?
Looky: Netflix have been trying to push their subltle nudity agenda into the Nigerian psyche through the movie industry.A time will come when everyone will see a naked actress in a movie as a normal thing. Look at Anikulapo and the recent one starring Nancy Isime.Actresses can go to any length to get a lead role in a movie which includes going naked on set.What is happening to our high moral standard I Nigeria. Is Netflix gradually eroding our culture.
Nigeria never for one day had any high moral standard. Rather what we have is a disproportionately high hypocritical standard.
The very fact that there are people who are angered by this statement from Obi is very disturbing. How do normal people just sit back and be happy with politicians ferrying our collective wealth with bullion vans?
May several thunders strike the heads of anyone who's angered by this veey statement from Obi.
This is absolutely what the classic 'structured' politicians want; to continue using hunger and poverty as a weapon to surpress, subdue and enslave the masses, while they continue sitting on heads as plutocratic overlords. The images of hungry masses invading palliative warehouses during the COVID19 lockdown is still fresh in mind; I wonder why people arent digging those images up (Nigerians forget too quickly).
This explains why the entire political class in Nigeria is angry and afraid of an OBI. But nothing can stop an idea which its time has come; God has certainly heard the prayers of ordinary Nigerians.
The private sector donated food relief to the masses, the political class locked the food up in warehouses using the food as an enslavement tool to control the poor; some politicians were even distributig donated pallitives to friends at birthday parties while others sold the freely donated palliatives. Another election season has come, Everyone has forgotten the #WeaponisationOfPoverty
Barely 11 days left and I've seen the new N500 note only once; I havent even seen the new N200 or N1000 at all and all bank ATMs still dispence old notes up till today. Yet they want to phase out old notes in 11 days?
It's either the CBN executives are high on some strange substance, or there could be very powerful forces within which are frustrating the deployment of the new notes. Whatever the case may be, it's absolutely impossible for banks to reject the old notes from 31st of January.
Exclude the fact that he's Igbo, and also that a lot of Igbos are supporting him (in a mob-like and abusive manner), over 80% of those hating on Obi today would gladly turn around and support him.
As ridiculous as that speech may have sounded, it's really disheartening to know that this is exactly the kind of barbaric senseless politics we still practice in Nigeria and Africa to date. Who really cursed the black man?
floret23: “Those ones that have record of stealing are the one the masses are following,. It’s such unfortunate,” he said.
It's so sad that this is the reality of Nigeria and Africa. You even see poor and impoverished citizens admiring, adulating and deitifying the leaders they clearly know are thieves and bandits.
Was recently advising someone to vote wisely and he comes up with the excuse that Obi doesnt have "experience". And I asked, "experience in what exactly?.. STEALING?"
The empty skull is dumber than dumb, no personal ideas, no original thoughts, nothing, just shameful and embarrassing rubbish from a grown man spewing nonsense like a toddler.
This is very shameful.
Coming from a cretin called Chigozirim Aliyu who vehemently argues there's nothing wrong with his presidential candidate spewing incoherent gibberish like Bhalablu blu blu bulabai....
Lol.. This one na agbado whatsapp group commentary. A people whose principal constantly blabs incoherent gibberish on national TV "Bhallablu, Blu-Blu, Bulabai!", these are the same people who still have the guts to mock someone else? Wonderful!
This is the reason Nigerians need to wake up and retire all these cretins who have somehow found a way to always rule ruin us. This sort of mentality needs to be retired from all leadership positions.
Like I said earlier, for those who sit as slaves to collect crumbs and those who hope to one day collect crumbs dropping from the table of thieves, lootocrats, kakistocrats, cartel bosses and scoundrels, I dont expect any of you to be happy about the possibility of the emergence of a stellar candidate like Obi.
mastermaestro: For once be sensible. I am not sure you have up to one percent of this man of GOD'S reputation. This is an image that has taken him years to build with GOD'S help, and you see nothing wrong with one maggot attempting to unload her filth on him?
I encourage clergy men to drag people to court more often so they learn great lessons. After all Kemi suddenly grew vital commonsense overnight after Ibeyeome had dragged her mercilessly through the burning coals of the law.
I believe your opening advice is best suited for your self. Stop being a blind ignorant follower who just jumps on trends without critical thinking; use your brains for once.
There's nothing the girl said in those tweets (see below) that is an insult to the man of God; so bringing up the man's image and pedigree is as pointless as these insults you're raining on the girl out of the abundant wickedness in your heart.. The girl was accused by some online idiots of having an affair with a pastor and she was simply calling out her accusers. How you lot interpreted that to mean 'she is insulting the man of God' still remains a mystery. It's this sort of simple-mindedness that makes some of our brothers up north go beserk unleashing death and destruction all because they fool9shly think someone insulted their deities.
If you hate the girl, be bold and say it and feel free to insult her; but stop hiding behind the excuse that she insulted the pastor; English grammar isnt that difficult. She even apologised because she knows there are a multitude of simple-minded zombie followers out there who rather than read, will just jump on the ignorant bandwagon desperately looking for who to attack.
yarimo: 8. Do you know PETER OBI is a criminal 9. Do you know PETER OBI has failed in any aspect of good governance as governor 10 . Do you know if you vote PETER OBI you are wasting your vote 11. Do you know Nigerians don't want PETER OBI 12. Do you know PETER OBI is the leader of UNKNOWN GUN MEN
Of course there are countless scoundrels all around Nigeria who feed off the failure of the system and who desperately fear they would lose their scandalous sources of livelihood should a person like Peter Obi win the election. Your post does not come as a surprise.
