Nonsense.

Tinubu is a better leader than Peteru Obi when you judge them by their performance as governors and how they’ve built alliance and network of leaders.

Even in philanthropy, Tinubu has impacted more on people lives than Peter Obi who can’t even qualify to be a LG chairman in sane countries.

How does politicians networking with other politicians benefits the common man or build a nation

Nigerians want good leaders and not political network.

A meat seller has one vote, the Sultan of sokoto has one vote. What is the ratio of meat sellers to the Sultans? Peter Obi understands this that was why he chose to relate more with the common men so that they can entrust him with their mandate, but Tinubu stole it.

Look at the statistics below when benchmarking performance.

See how you are helping Tinubu brag with his stolen wealth. Where I come from, nobody envies a thief, if he likes let him do philanthropy and charity with his money, that doesn't change the fact the money he is spending is blood money.

When you speak of Obi and Tinubu performance as governors, bring all the indices side by side. Obi outdeed Tinubu hands down. But most mistakes Tinubu supporters make is comparing Obi's 8years achievement as governor with Tinubu 24years as landlord of Lagos.

trutharena:
Lol 😂

If APC had nominated any other candidate besides Tinubu, they would be defeated fair and square. Most people they voted Tinubu did because he is Tinubu.

If it’s truly party that matters, why did Atiku not win with PDP?

APC cabals did not even support Tinubu in this election coz they tried every possible best to make sure he lose. The only saving grace for him are the alliance he has built from the onset and those Northern governors would have done anti-party to support Atiku had it been APC present a weak candidate.

For someone without any presidency backing, he has been out of any political contest since 2007 and he suddenly came and won the presidential election at first trial, Tinubu deserve the Jagaban title.

Obi was VP in 2019 and that catapaulted him a bit but yet he was still not able to beat Buhari record of 10million constant vote since 2003. Even at that Buhari couldn’t win his election at first trial.

Obi campaigned with both tribe and religion against a Muslim-Muslim ticket and still came third. Shame on the loser.

That is the lie Tinubu supporters are always pushing. That nobody else could win with the APC ticket besides Tinubu.

Nigerians don't want politicians that can win elections. What Nigerians want is a good leader.

helinues:
Indeed, Obi na goat as goats no dey hear words. That's upon how Gov Soludo advised Obi

No be Atiku this guy supported during the election? He has quickly shift camp to Obi.

Imagine, you are not yet a politician but you have been cross carpeting

Chai

Obi heard the yarning of the masses, he yielded, and the masses gave him their mandate. Only for a thief to steal it.

Obi is coming. The election petition tribunal starts on Monday.

SmartyPants:


Whether true or false let him say it then come back and attack him when he fails. What is the point of attacking him now?

You see someone leading you to a pithole. You clearly see the pit but you decide not to speak up. You are waiting till you fall inside the pit before you start speaking up. That is what most Tinubu supporters are suggesting the entire Nigeria should do.

Smh


Tinubu is the most depraved individual to ever contest for President in the history of Nigeria.

He initiates corruption, he benefits from corruption, he romances corruption, his identity is corruption and you expect him to fight corruption. He has to first of all fight the person he see's when he looks at the mirrow.

SmartyPants:
So what they are saying is that they want the president-elect, supposing he really is stained by corruption (which is likely), to continue in that sinful path instead of doing what is right this time?

I don't get the essence of this statement.

PDP is saying, Tinubu is trying to deceive Nigerians by saying he would fight corruption.

A man cannot give what he doesn't have. All Tinubu was saying is deception, believing the entire Nigerian is stupid enough to buy it.

alanto:

You can't stop Nigeria kind of corruption over night... There's no switch button for it. You may want to suspend the democratic constitution that we have first but that may not stop it but if you try to make it less attractive. What Asiwaju is saying is. If a youth can get a job of 100k at least... He will likely not be pushed into crimes. If you can get loan to build a house or buy a car and spread the payment over years, you will likely not steal the money that belongs to other people. That's making corruption let's attractiv. Providing an alternative.

If we all have easy lives, there'll be no justification for crimes.

Why would a thief want to stop other people from stealing??

So that there would be more than enough for him to steal. Ambode said it, Tinubu is the most greedy thief he ever met.

Alliswell248:


Yes Daddy.
I am sure you are in Lagos.
Which state in Nigeria is better than Lagos?

Lagos has always been better before Tinubu.

Alliswell248:


Yoruba supported Tinubu because he is a performer, also because he is hatred for no reason by Ipob miscreants.

What did he perform. Gives you 1 publicly then goes behind to steal 20 from you.

Ji mà sún

Yoruba people supporting Tinubu because he is from their tribe, is this truly your position.

Buhari performed well, so you voted Tinubu to continue. Very laughable statement.

helinues:
Were you on a journey to Mars when he explained himself.

If you are not satisfied with his explanation, then that na your headache

Nobody is interested in explanations if he truly wants forgiveness. Let him tell us where the stolen funds are for recovery.

No wonder they are behind the most depraved human to ever contest an election in Nigeria, so that their stolen funds would be covered up.

Printerscanner:


Yes, Tinubu is the god of Politics. Worship him. Your hatred and bitterness can never have an effect on him.

When God loves the person you hate so much, then you are in trouble. That's why the Egyptians were destroyed in the Red Sea. Even their corpses could not be retrieved for burial. Do not let the same happen to you.

If an armed robber robs and he succeeds, does that mean that God loves him. Very funny! Even in the process of robbery, he kills innocent bystanders, however he succeeds. No, not that he succeed, he succeeded in multiple robbery operations, does this mean that God loves him

I have a message for you from God.
Isa.5.20 - Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!

Headless mob can’t think.

Most of the people that make up Labour Party are ex-PDP including the voters.

Peter Obi, Doyin Okupe, Kenneth Okwonko (APC), and etc.

Even the Ibo who form bulk of LP voters usually thumbprint for PDP until this year election.

So that means if they are to enforce what that banner says up there, no one will remain in the failed Elllupee party.

You guys are the ones that can't think because you want to twist narratives.

Melezenawii:
Labour Party Finally Reject Peter Obi and Datti Baba Ahmed

APC propaganda machinery, allow labor party handle their own problem. Specialist in twisting narratives.

The poster is recent. Which means going forward, all know APC and PDP members are not welcome into Labor Party.

Tinubu committed perjury by telling an untruth under oath. It is the responsibility of the state to persecute him.

tunjilana:


You should start by logically explaining to yourself why you feel Tinubu's track record as governor, Pro-Democracy activist and Mentor to many high-fliers is not good enough to pilot the affairs of the country rightly....You will do yourself some good if you take a chill pill and watch things unfold....All previous data proves that Tinubu will do way better than Buhari and he is a better candidate than Peter Obi

Tinubu's administration would be to compensate everybody that has helped become president.

There is a good reason why so many Nigerians are worried that nothing good would come out of a Tinubu's presidency. APC run down this nation in the last 8years, scoring negatives on all developmental indices. This same set of people who destroyed the nation are regrouping to destroy it further under a new leadership, Tinubu.

GeneralPula:
As you can all see, no sane & logical reason so far..

This is because they don’t have any reasonable reason..

First of all, you should understand one thing, nobody hates Tinubu. If there is anything we the commoners (in your own terms, Obidients) hate is the APC. In the last 4years, there is no Nigerian that has not said anything bad about the APC government except those in APC.

The APC government, destroyed the Nigerian economy in the last 8years and it would take a long time for Nigeria to recover. This same set of people are regrouping to destroy Nigeria further for another 8years under a new leader, Tinubu. Tinubu does not have the political will to do anything different from what Buhari has been doing in the last 8years. He would definitely be handicapped to work with the same criminal elements in APC. He himself not different from the criminals.

Obi is a breath of fresh air to ordinary Nigerians. Because, if he gets the opportunity to pilot the affairs of this nation, he would be working with fresh ideas and a new set of people's in his team. Obi has no God father/cabal to report to. The only people Peter Obi would be accountable to are the ordinary Nigerians, you inclusive. This is why we all have to support him to reclaim our mandate.

Obi, character wise, has the right personality to bring reforms to the status quo.

Understand this, we are not reclaiming our mandate from Tinubu, it is the forces that has held this nation bound in the last 8years that we are reclaiming our mandate from.

In addition, remember, before the presidential primaries, just like every other region, the southwest hated the APC. Tribalism is the reason why the APC later became the darling of the southwest.

LegalWolf:
Hi Nairalanders,

My question is a very simple one - why is tinubu HATED so much by Obidients? I am genuinely curious owing to what I've been reading on the platform and other social media. They make it appear that the country is doomed the moment Tinubu becomes president?

Is there something Obidient's know that the rest of us do not?

PS: No insults please. Just facts

Corn247:


He was an accountant, a good one.. Common sense dictate that he will deal with various kind of people. You don't expect him to know what everyone is capable of, drug money was paid to his account and he forfeited it. He was not caught with drug dealings himself.

The jubril of sudan propaganda really shows you people are very poor thinkers, you take anything that suits your narration no matter how unrealistic it is.

How would same US president Obama invite a drug trafficker to his inauguration? Does it still make sense to you?

Accountant to drug dealers.. interesting....

You claim to be intelligent, however, you are not doing a good job defending Tinubu.

Every Nigerian knows Obi won the last election. Tinubu and INEC rigged him out.

Before Tinubu supporters start asking for evidence of rigging, they should be aware that all Nigerians that took part in the 2023 general election are witnesses to the rigging perpetrated by INEC and can be called upon to testify in court. Even the judges that would be sitting on the panel of the election petition tribunal are also witnesses. I myself I am a witness and I have recordings on my phone which I made myself.

kolaaderin:
They are 80% from a single region. So people can never be wrong if they termed them as you have said. Take a clue from the 2023 presidential result and analyze without been biased.

Mr, you are wrong. Peter Obi had over 6million votes alorted to him by INEC. Only 2million came to him from Igbo states which represents 30%. The remaining 70% are not Igbos.

That's not the only propaganda APC supporters are paid to push.

They are also paid to push the propaganda that anybody not supporting APC hates Yorubas. So, there job every day is to fight the imaginary enemies of the Yoruba tribe.

They forgot that, APC on it's own has failed Nigerians in the last 8years, and this same set of failures are regrouping to remain in power for another 8years.

When will he suspend his mentor, Mahmud Yakubu??

HydraFeeds:
you’re contradicting yourself by saying he related with elites during his campaigns but getting worried how he will relate with international individuals.intentionally neglecting that Time just considered him number 19 most influential man in the world .

Tinubu of 5 years ago is not different from Tinubu of now ,old wine taste sweeter ,recently ,he beat the cabals ,beat traitors,beat fuel and cash scarcity,beat Obidient mob blue black and all opposition joined to become the president elect . I think he’s better than 5years ago . In 2014 or so ,PDP media said he was sick and down with stroke but we all know that that same Tinubu beat them with kungfu kick during the 2015 election .

In his campaign,he spoke about loan for students ,FDI ,subsidy removal ,tech and other Industrial Revolution projects ,he also spoke about his achievements as a governor and these are better than someone campaigning based on ethnicity and religion or on invisible statistics from Egypt . Every sensible people knows that Lagos economic achievements can be replicated in the federal level .

I have mentioned how he engaged in several media outings,Tinubu is not your regular politician that wail on national tv instead of working on the field .

Related, more like he visited, not that he discussed anything media worthy.

Few times he tried to address the public, he was speaking gibberish.

The human body is not a wine. That's a poor analogy. The older you get, the weaker you become.

HydraFeeds:
which electoral umpire was bought ? Do you have any evidence or deductive reasoning for that claim ?

Engagements with press is only important to discuss your achievements,projections and for interactions to modify your projections but not to appear just because of need for attention.

Tinubu held various town hall meetings,stakeholders meeting and had engagements with neutral media like BBC and NESG . He floored Obi in the latter .

Tinubu engaged with foreign leaders that birthed PPP projects like Lekki deep sea port and Eko Atlantic . He appeared in Chatham house several years ago even before Obi opened eyes to international media .

Tinubu of 5years ago is not the same Tinubu of today. Can you tell me one thing Tinubu said or did during the campaigns that makes you think he deserves a single vote from ordinary Nigerians?? Tinubu related more with elites during his campaign and his campaign team shielded him as much as they can from the eyes of the masses.

You are only trying to downplay the importance of communication skills for any leader because you know your Tinubu is handicap in that region. I don't know how you guys intend to fool an entire nation with that.

FreeStuffsNG:
It is not funny. What is funny today is watching same Edo and PANDEF today begging the same Asiwaju you mock to support your quest for Senate Presidency. What is funny today is that the Yoruba of today no longer care about Edo and can get the Presidency without you guys minority alliance.

The Yoruba you think was opposing Asiwaju just ethnic baited you and in private, he or she is happy that the Yoruba triumphed. We do not opppse you for your democratic choice, it is the hate, mockery, criminal defamation and bigotry against Asiwaju that we found objectionable. Asiwaju Tinubu was not respinsible for the break down of family values in Edo such that boys who were being stopped from yahoo plus and girls stopped from going to Italy by Buhari now hate the Yoruba.

Like I stated, we defeated you all. We do not have time to hate anyone. Our next task is cut out for us; support Asiwaju to succeed phenomenally as a patriotic Nigerian President of Yoruba extraction.

If I were you, I will be more bothered about knowing if anyone from your place can ever be the President of Nigeria. That is the answer you need and except you see far you will envy the Yoruba who keep winning strategically. Do not hate Yoruba, learn from the Yoruba.

Sorry, I don't do tribal stuffs. I assess people based on my conscience and make my choice. I don't really care who becomes senate president.

If we can't get it right at the top, everything else would flop. Just like in this Buhari regime. A Nigeria that works for all, is what I want.

HydraFeeds:


1) Tinubu is from the south .

2) The east was chasing Biafra and are not really committed to the Nigeria project . There were rallies for Biafra nation after the loss of their son and one of them just released their map and government in exile portfolios.

3) Engagements with press does not determine fitness to lead ,especially when the engagements is more of ethnoreligious bigotry. Winning the heart of certain masses does not means winning the heart of majority of the masses (majority carry the votes) . Also engagement/talking with people does not mean you’re making sense ,imagine when you can’t answer questions on green energy ,KPI,Oil theft prevention,fight against corruption. Etc

4) a sinner is a sinner ,wether he stole 1 Naira or 1million Naira . Not to talk of multiple allegations against him

5) what’s open about saying you saved money but there’s no evidence for it and your successor disputed it ? What about cronyism like awarding state contracts to family and friends? What about tax evasion and money laundering to tax haven countries?

6) what indices are you talking about ? Is it the ones that can’t be felt by common man or a man with hero beer as greatest achievement and leaving the state as erosion capital of the world or the investment made becoming next to nothing ?

On the contrary, engagements with press determines mental fitness to lead. As the number citizen of your Nation, how would you communicate with other leaders of the world, how would you negotiate, strike deals that would be beneficial to your people? How would you mediate between warring parties or win the heart of agitators? Ability to communicate is a non negotiable skills for any leader.

If Tinubu was so confident of winning the majority votes, why did he have to buy the electoral umpire??

FreeStuffsNG:
You are not Yoruba so just quit Yoruba affairs to wean yourself of the hate you have for Yoruba.

If Asiwaju Tinubu has been contesting and winning election in Yorubaland since 1992 till date and you saw or pretend not to see how his fellow Yoruba stepped down for him at APC presidential primaries ,except one of his political sons PYO, and how all the Traditional rulers in Yoruba endorsed him and engaged with Northern Emirs then you are dabbling into what you do not know beyond the hate you have for the Yoruba.

If the clear victory map does not convince you , go get an interpreter to interprete what Asiwaju said to the Yoruba race in Abeokuta to declare in Yoruba that emi lokan, watch the open declaration the late Alaafin made and left as an instruction to us Yoruba to stand by Asiwaju Tinubu.

Quit hating Yoruba, we are not responsible for failure of your political leaders.

Anywhere you mention hate for Yorubas, it always sound funny to me. There are lots Yorubas that do not support Tinubu. Does that mean they hate their tribe?

Maybe in the next election, my preferred candidate would be a Yoruba man. As for Tinubu, it is a NO, NO for me.

TakeNigeriaBack:


Of course you're Edo. When it comes to HATRED for Yoruba people, Ibo carry gold, Edo carry silver. Both of u na go collect wotorwotor. We don scope u na finish. Gone are the days of not knowing. Now, we know. God go punish both of una. But before then we go do our own. U na go collect wotorwotor.

I am a 3rd generation lagosian. My Dad, all my uncles and aunties speak Yoruba. I have a family house in Orile. My uncles married Yoruba women.

In secondary school, I had Yorubas and Igbos as friends, that I am still in touch with till today. So, why should I hate Yorubas.

All this hatred for Yorubas you guys are always blabbing about is just a social media thing. Politicians are only taking advantage of it.

FreeStuffsNG:
I am sure you did not look at that victory map again so I will post it again.

I will suggest that you look at the region of Yorubaland from the atlantic to the North central states of Kwara and Kogi, where apart form Lagos where most Yoruba failed to come out on election day to vote thereby giving a little above 6k votes difference against Asiwaju and Osun where the sitting Gov had already been sacked by the tribunal and needed to work extra hard for Alhaji Atiku, please how else and louder do you want the Yoruba to tell you that Asiwaju Tinubu is our most preferred choice.

Did you also forget the leaked audio where one of his opponent was confessing to Bishop Oyedepo that Yorubaland all the way to Kwara, Kogi and even Niger do not know him or accept him? If Mr Obi was begging frantically for Yoruba votes, who do you think was the Yoruba choice that made him not to be acceptable to the Yoruba?

You must really have nothing but hate for the Yoruba if you are suggesting that our choice is not our choice. This is the hate you are struggling to come to terms with. As you can see, Yoruba does not care about Edo unlike before so if we are advocating that Senate Presidency goes to North Central today, it is because we really do not care whether you stop hating or not. Yoruba have called you out and we know those standing with us.
Like Oonirisa once declared, if you hate Yoruba and do not want to have anything to do with Yoruba, we no send. We do not have time to hate, hating those who hate you is like casting your pearls before swines.

We revenged by succeeding massively. Inspite of your hate, we stood by Asiwaju and protected him against his haters and today he is the President-Elect. We are grateful to God and all our political allies. We defeated you haters. All of you who hate Asiwaju because he is Yoruba and he is our choice among several of our Yoruba leaders.

If Yorubas were to make a choice for president of Yoruba Nation between Tinubu, Osinbajo, Fashola, Makinde, Afebabalola, Fela Durotoye, you are telling me, you guys would pick Tinubu
