Dalohad:
Reno must bring those documents to court.

Absolutely

mohims:
Don't get it twisted. I'm not obsessed with them. I can't be obsessed with such a movement. A movement that believes it's either their way or nothing at all. A movement that never calls a spade a spade. A movement that always try to forcefully impose themselves on others. They defend evil. Almost everything about that movement represents evil.

When someone claims they’re not obsessed but can’t stop talking about a group they hate, it usually means the group scares them more than they’re willing to admit.

But Nigerians should simply continue, christians are expected to keep risking their lives, being massacred, kidnapped, and subjected to genocide under the Tinubu Muslim/Muslim administration. Nigerians, especially Christians, have witnessed worse atrocities than ever before in the history of this country under the Tinubu regime.

Christians are expected to endure mass kidnappings while the government initially denies that these incidents occurred, only to backtrack later, as the perpetrators continue to be shielded and emboldened by the Tinubu Muslim/Muslim regime.

mohims:
Please I came across this post on Daniel Regha's page. I'll like to know your honest opinion about it. Tell me if the obidient movement is not a movement built for deception

-Y'all criticize Sanwo-Olu over the EndSARS massacre but make excuses for Peter Obi concerning the Akwuzu SARS gruesome k'llings.

-You condemn Gumi for being a bandit advocate, yet, justified Obi being his friend or associate.

-Atiku is deemed morally corrupt, today Obi has turned political besties with him in the name of coalition.

-Wike is desperate for betraying the PDP, however Obi is a strategist for always decamping for self-interest.

-Obi is fighting for Nigerians, and same Obi supported Emefiele's cashless policy that was suffering Nigerians, backed the fuel subsidy removal, and selects what he speaks on.

-It's performative when other politicians advertise their eyeservice donations, however, Obi is genuine despite moving around with cameras.

-Obi is so accountable, and till date there's no clarity on the LP campaign donations.

-He cares about the health sector, and during his governship tenure there was a "13-month strike by government-employed doctors", and Anambra South had no public hospital until Soludo's administration built one.

-He wants to move the nation from consumption to production, and his most notable achievement in this field is partnering with the state govt to open a beer company as a sitting governor.

-Till date no clarity on the "religious war" alleged phonecall with Oyedepo, or clarity on the Deji accusations.

-He was heavily criticized from 2006 to 2013, now he's the next best thing to a messiah.

Nigerians!

Funny how Obi lives rent-free in your medulla oblongata

Every point you raised is just Olympic-level whataboutism

Obi did this, Obi once spoke to that person, Obi didn’t explain so and so to my satisfaction.
Meanwhile, the bar for your preferred candidate is so low it’s chilling in hell.

You demand perfection from Obi, but amnesia for everyone else.

Tinubu is running and ruining the country, but Peter Obi, a private citizen is the problem

You want moral absolutism from a man who has never held federal power, yet endless grace for people who have run the country into the ground.

Political coalitions aren’t betrayal when Tinubu does it, they’re suddenly evil only when Obi is involved.

Doctors’ strikes? Name one Nigerian governor who didn’t face them.

Even under this Tinubu regime, didn't medical doctors go on strike this January

Campaign funds? Ask the same questions across the board, not only where your obsession points.

How did Tinubu fund his campaign?

And the funniest part is that you say Obi is performative, yet he still scares the establishment without federal power, oil money, or state capture.

If Obi is this terrible and still your biggest nightmare, imagine how weak the alternatives must be.

Rest, bro. Obi is not your problem. Tinubu is the reason for your frustrations. He is president who's calamitous policies mascurading as economic reforms has inflicted untold hardships strive rising inflation, worsening insecurities etc

mohims:
Obidients will not like Ruben Abati's analysis!

Why are you so obsessed with Obidients

Yes, The below are the wahala Tinubu brought upon Nigerians

-Worst cost-of-living crisis in Nigeria’s history

-Unprecedented hunger & food inflation, as millions of families are now skipping meals

- Naira collapse, wiping out salaries and savings

-Massive increase in poverty despite so called revenue growth, over 150 million Nigerians in abject poverty
The Middle class totally wiped off.

-Businesses shutting down, SMEs suffocating under taxes and FX chaos

-Graduate unemployment rising despite training programmes

-Insecurity everywhere, unprecedented in history, genocide, banditry, kidnappings, killings now normalized, .

-Healthcare still unaffordable for the average Nigerian

-Fuel subsidy removal with zero safety net, Statistics improving, lives deteriorating

If the economy is truly booming, why are Nigerians poorer?

If trade surplus is N18 trillion, why is food unaffordable?

If states no longer borrow for salaries, why are workers still suffering?


Truly, Tinubu's wahala is too much and another four years of it is so scary and unimaginable

mrvitalis:
Everyone who has lived in the South East know unknown gun men are government agencies sponsored to give ipob bad names

Thank you for this exposé

Putindbutt

You’re angry, yes, but you’re angry at the wrong people.

Obidients are not source of your frustrations and anger. They didn't take over Nairaland

What you’re feeling is the weight of a calamitous and incompetent regime, and instead of holding those in power accountable, you’re shadowboxing fellow citizens who warned you this would happen.

Obidients are fellow citizens who wants a better Nigeria deviod of ethnic and tribal bîgótry

Calling people names, crying about bans, or inventing persecution narratives won’t change the facts on the ground. The economy is harsh, governance is weak, and Nigerians are paying the price. That frustration has a source and it isn’t Obidients.

Listen, criticism is not fascism. Dissent is not hatred. Asking for competence is not bitterness. If your politics collapses the moment it’s questioned, then it was never about Nigeria’s progress to begin with.

So spare us the threats and prophecies. History doesn’t reward noise, it rewards results. And right now, the results are speaking louder than any propaganda.

Even though we know that Tinubu has no capacity to fight corruption, being corruption personified, the EFCC Chairman swore that either Yahaya Bello would be prosecuted or he would resign. Nigerians are anxiously waiting for him to fulfill that promise.

Not when Trump is on Akpabio's neck

Nlfpmod fergie001, Mods this should be on front page

Sowore can petition Reno Omokri to tender those court documents he claimed to have obtained from Chicago

Bellfun:
Who are the so-called infiltrators

We all know that the originators and amplifiers of those insults and threats are known obidents!

Obi should stop deflecting from the main issue; rein-in your foot soldiers!

Anyways, the damage is already done!

Isn't it obvious that you are one of the infiltrators

Burob:
Very sorry for the hypocritical minded gullible children is all I can say to u.

Tinubu say em go give u 24 hours electricity, am u believe am?

So Tinubu na mad man him be

Burob:
Dey wait make government come give u electricity.

Are you implying that Tinubu was stooopid for making such a promise, since Nigerians supposedly don’t need to wait for the government to provide electricity?

seunmsg:
Why do you guys always want to insert your victim mentality into every national issue? Since the news broke out, it’s either you guys complaining that Yorubas are not calling the coup a northern coup or you’re all crying that nothing is being done to the plotters because they are not Igbo or oh, they should not involve your people.


You SE folks should quit this annoying behavior. This is a military issue and not about you. Stop trying to force yourself into this matter. Those who planned the botched coup will face the consequences irrespective of their ethnicity. So please, stop viewing every national issue with a tribal lens. Thanks.

Funny how this your 'stop viewing everything through a tribal lens' slogan only surfaces when SE people raise concerns, but not when narratives are being quietly shaped.

seunmsg, listen, no one, and I repeat, no one is inserting victim mentality here. What people are asking for is consistency and transparency: the same standards applied across the board, regardless of ethnicity. That is not tribalism; that is accountability.

If this is truly a military issue and ethnicity is irrelevant, then good, that’s exactly the point. Investigate fully. Prosecute openly.

But let’s be honest; history has taught some Nigerians to be cautious, not silent.

And let me add this clearly, I hope you don’t change this stance if the Army colonel involved is eventually named and he happens to be Igbo.
I hope we don’t suddenly hear excuses, downplaying, or selective outrage.

Because we all know that part of the reason there has been no outrage from you folks so far is that no one from the SE has been mentioned.

National unity is built on equal treatment, not selective sensitivity.

So no, this isn’t about forcing ourselves into anything.
It’s about ensuring that justice does not depend on who you are or where you come from

ElSudani:
Armchair footballer. Everything is easy peasy when you watch from a distance. Sowore's highest leadership experience was what?

ElSudani, there’s no need for insults. Just show Sowore one investor, just one Tinubu has brought.

Long list of achievements with zero impact on the people.

Yes, Tinubu’s government has announced policies, created agencies, passed bills, and rebranded old ideas. But governance is not about all that, it’s about results.

The below is what Nigerians are actually living with:

-Worst cost-of-living crisis in Nigeria’s history

-Unprecedented hunger & food inflation, as millions of families are now skipping meals

- Naira collapse, wiping out salaries and savings

-Massive increase in poverty despite so called revenue growth, over 150 million Nigerians in abject poverty
The Middle class totally wiped off.

-Businesses shutting down, SMEs suffocating under taxes and FX chaos

-Graduate unemployment rising despite training programmes

-Insecurity everywhere, unprecedented in history, genocide, banditry, kidnappings, killings now normalized, .

-Healthcare still unaffordable for the average Nigerian

-Fuel subsidy removal with zero safety net, Statistics improving, lives deteriorating

If the economy is truly booming, why are Nigerians poorer?

If trade surplus is N18 trillion, why is food unaffordable?

If states no longer borrow for salaries, why are workers still suffering?

Tinubu has achieved everything ,except relief.

A government is not judged by the length of its achievements list or what it initiates, but by the quality of life of its people.

And by that measure, the Tinubu regime has been a government of unprecedented hardship.

MIKOLOWISKA:
name another state that is better than Lagos

Abuja

Ganduje the tiger lizard of Kano state politics

Fixed appropriately

We will not forget

Daguccizgreat:
Sending Tinubu out of Aso rock in 2027 is already a done deal.

It is every Nigerian’s collective decision.

For many Nigerians today, another four-year tenure under Tinubu is not only scary but almost unimaginable.

givedemwotowoto:
North Iragbiji?

Or probably northern Ogbomosho

You may have withdrawn the statement, but you didn’t withdraw the truth. That’s the difference.

Simply declaring those statements “no longer valid, wrong or fallacious” does not make them disappear. It only raises more questions, particularly when such declarations follow political appointments like an ambassadorial appointment and obvious incentives to stay silent.

The IShowSpeed Lagos tour showed the true picture of Lagos.
It exposed to the entire world the Lagos that Tinubu left behind and continues to leave behind after holding the state in a tight grip for over two decades, preventing it from breathing, blossoming, and flourishing

The way this government and its hordes of supporters celebrate this tax law, you’d think it were the greatest achievement in human history, a magic wand meant to usher in the economic boom and prosperity Nigerians have long been yearning for.

Ttalk:
Lie is part and parcel of many of you. The picture you post is from Kogi state in North Central. Why attaching it to make it look like it happened in Lagos.

The more you try to demarket Lagos the more your state go down, just know this

What’s actually a lie is pretending Lagos 2023 was peaceful just because the truth is inconvenient.

First, a simple Google search would have shown you that the picture is from Ogun State, not Kogi. So miss me with the manufactured outrage and lazy gaslighting.

Second, Lagos doesn’t need demarketing.

Those who demarket Lagos are the same people who turned elections into warfare, the thuggery, agberoism, voter intimidation, ethnic profiling, and state-backed impunity we all witnessed live and direct. No Photoshop. No propaganda. We were there, we all saw it.

When political actors unleash street urchins, thugs, agberos, deploy oro masquerades to scare voters, openly threaten people believed to be a particular ethnic group, and celebrate violence, they do more damage to Lagos’ image than any tweet or Nairaland post ever could.

The problem isn’t people speaking up.
The problem is those who perpetrated electoral banditry, thuggery, agberoism and deploy the most ethnic and tribal bîgótry divisive campaign ever in the history of this country

We don’t need StatiSense to tell us that the South West, especially Lagos State would top the list for election violence in 2023.

We lived it. We witnessed the impunity, thuggery, agberoism, voter intimidation, and outright suppression that defined the Lagos elections, all in a desperate bid to grab it, snatch it, and run away with it.

We saw political oro masquerades deployed to scare voters. We witnessed wanton killings, maiming, and destruction of property targeting people believed to belong to a particular ethnic group, all because of their democratic choice.

And as if the violence on the streets wasn’t enough, ethnic bile was openly fueled by characters like Bayo Onanuga and MC Oluomo, further poisoning the atmosphere and stoking ethnic tension.

This should be the third or fourth statement issued by the presidency regarding Tinubu’s embarrassing stumble and fall, yet none has addressed Tinubu’s state visit to Turkey or its benefits to the country.

They accuse others of turning the incident into mischief, but forget that they are the real mischief-makers, judging by the retinue of press statements they have issued on the matter.

When a government and its spokesperson expend so much energy explaining Tinubu’s stumble and embarrassing fall, it signals only one thing: a government that is incompetent and directionless.

Ttalk:
You don't know that states are sub national with autonomous power to execute projects.

Now that you have confirmed your intellectual laziness, you can now open your constitution and read about concurrent and residual list that covers what a state can do.

Nobody is asking for scale or capacity between FG and state government, we just want to see what Obi has done with the little he got.

If e didn't dey, e didn't dey.

You don't give a man who bury one talent in his Fidelity bank, you cast him away and never given him another to hide in his underage Pandora bank account

Nobody denied that states have autonomy. What you’re deliberately avoiding is context. Obi governed a resource-poor state, not an oil-rich one, and certainly not with federal backing. Yet he paid salaries and pensions, cleared debts, saved billions, invested in education and healthcare, and left Anambra fiscally stable.

Now the real question you keep dodging: did Tinubu do all that as Lagos governor? Did he leave Lagos debt-free? Did he leave billions in savings? Or did he leave a state permanently hooked on borrowing and opaque revenue structures? Constructing a conduit pipe connecting the coffers of Lagos state Treasury to his personal pocket siphoning and milking the entire common wealth of Lagosians for over two decades and counting.

Your last paragraph, truly misapplied. Obi didn’t bury talent, he preserved and multiplied it. Some leaders shout, borrow, and brand projects. Others quietly build stability. Sadly, some supporters only recognize leadership when it’s laced with lies, falsehood and propaganda

Thedon22:
Please, can you help me with pictures of Obis projects when he was gov for 8 years. How come we are seeing pictures of Tinubus projects within 3 years and Obis 8 years projects is unavailable. Is Obi building China in the air or by mouth?

It’s obvious you just jumped into this conversation and missed the plot entirely. Comparing Obi’s tenure as a state governor to Tinubu’s tenure as president is not just lazy, it’s intellectually dishonest.

Obi governed Anambra State, not Nigeria, not the federal purse, and not with the same powers, revenue streams, or propaganda machinery available to a sitting president. Yet under him, Anambra cleared debts, left billions in savings, invested heavily in education, health, and infrastructure, and consistently ranked among the least indebted states.

As for ‘pictures, governance isn’t a social media content contest. Roads, schools, hospitals, savings, and debt reduction don’t disappear because you can’t find glossy photo-ops.

And no, Obi wasn’t building China in the air or by mouth, he was running a state with prudence, not media noise.

Honestly, jumping in with baseless comparisons like this makes one wonder if you actually understand governance at all or if you’re even mentally okay to have this conversation.

Ttalk:
Go to Anambra, you will see incompetence walking on its legs until Soludo started chasing them away.

Same incompetence that chased many of you to SW

I feel your pains, anguish, and frustrations.
