Racoon:" a compromised president is a puppet." Who could put it better? Anyway, they had Shettima the Boko Haram sympathizer in mind for president, not Bola Tinubu. |
But the skewed and lopsided political structure of Nigeria created by northern soldiers who created 19 states and Abuja in one region, North, but only 17 states in two southern regions, makes northern politicians largely dictate who becomes president of Nigeria. A presidential candidate must win 25% of votes in 24 states, before proclaimed winner of Nigeria's presidential election. The north exploits the political ignorance of the southern people. A southerner will tell you that the land mass of Borno state alone is larger than the land mass of all the SE states put together, so why would the SE ask for more states. The southerner doesn't understand that land mass or population figures is never used as criterion to create new federating units in a country formed by diverse regions There should have been more states in the two southern regions than in the northern region. |
AfricanColumbus:OMG. Is this in a film or in real life? Why will we continue to share one country with these Fulani? There is no country formed that is indivisible. Igbo politicians of one Nigeria, you see what you cause your people. No force of any ethnic group, or mixture of ethnic groups, in Nigeria can stop a UNITED Igbo from restoring Biafra. Enuf is enuf. RIP to the dead. |
Aufbauh:You are talking rubbish? Lake Chad water is surface water, not ground water. Ground water is water below the aquifers. Groundwater recharge or deep drainage or deep percolation is a hydrologic process, where water moves downward from surface water to groundwater. Recharge is the primary method through which water enters an aquifer. Does Tinubu want to drain Lake Chad waters into the aquifers? Tinubu was blabbing as usual. |
PrinceOfLagos:It is the head of Tinubu's supporters that need a RECHARGE. How could a saner human being support a Tinubu mentally exhausted with age to become president of Nigeria? They are pushing Tinubu to collapse one day on stage.
|
HilcomTech:TAQQIYA. Continue with your false narrative. |
Right. Some Niger Delta leaders mistakenly sold the oil in the region to the north in 1967 when they went to Kaduna and asked then governor of Northern region to beg the HoS, Yakubu Gowon, to carve the non Igbo speaking areas of the old Eastern region out of Biafra. Gowon quickly carved out Cross River and Rivers states out of Biafra. That largely led to fall of Biafra. Northern political and military leaders took over the multimillion dollars oil blocks in the Niger Delta. Divided, you fall. |
Kwanza:In Nigeria: a judge said the court has no jurisdiction over primary elections of political parties; in another court, another judge says the court has jurisdiction over primary elections of political parties. This tells a lot of ugly stories about Nigeria's judiciary. |
Dapson73:You have been crying since 2015. You will cry more on realising that you have a Boko Haram sympathizer as president of Nigeria. You lie to yourself if you believe that if old and frail Bola Tinubu is elected as president of Nigeria, he will last in office for 8 years. |
politicoNG:Scrap the NYSC thing, it doesn't add to unity in Nigeria. Actions and inaction of Religious extremists in one part of Nigeria destroyed unity in Nigeria.

Omicronvaccine: |
Hassanmaye:Say no to generalisation. There are those who argue like the most Shophistiwretched. |
onthehill:Wickedness. The two EVIL persons must not be fed in prison with tax payers money. Dispense them as quickly as they are convicted. |
babaolofin:Other Nigerian groups would tell your lot: go and form your own country where presidential candidate will only assemble persons he/she likes and talks to then, but no debates with fellow presidential candidates. You would say a big no, one Nigeria indissoluble. |
babaolofin:Typically Shophistiwretched. Trump and Biden would debate it out together in one or two occasions in front of hardened journalists who would ask them questions the presidential candidates would respond to. The public would assess them and draw conclusions. Tinubu and Atiku have never agreed to appear before any debates between the presidential candidates. You people are on the march again like in 2015 when you used all sorts of arguments to sell Muhammadu Buhari to Nigerians in presidential election. Nigeria that has loads of technocrats and administrators running other countries' economies end up every presidential election with mediocre presidents, because of ethno-religious interests of some sections of its electorate. |
dre11:Even if APC steals the election, Nigerians must be ready to resist the party's armed forces it will send to the streets. No reasonable Nigerian will vote APC which has reduced the country to harboring the largest number of poor, hungry and most terrorised people on earth. |
Felixamos:Umahi is not an APC member. He is there like Atiku shifted to APC in 2014 to pursue his personal interest. |
Broadcasting to neonates. See how all important presidential debates in America has now got reduced to in Nigeria, to be ridiculed by Bola Tinubu and Atiku of Nigeria. |
Moh247:Continue with deceiving yourself and the uninitiated, until the day your idol collapses on stage as he talks like TV to his carefully assembled audience made of persons of mediocrity. That day, your pay as you promote Jagaban Borgu stipend shall cease to flow. Those days, the TV would talk to the audience, but audience couldn't ask questions. |
Moh247:Tinubu wearing catheters can't even stand 20 mins of grilling by informed journalists. He assembles people of mediocrity in Town Hall meetings to tell them bunkum with nobody asking questions.
|
onumadu:To avert a situation where any southerner in PDP succeeds president Buhari is reason why Atiku threw himself into the 2022 presidential race. He mapped out the strategy right after the Supreme Court pronounced President Buhari the winner of the 2019 presidential election. Wike knew that Atiku would contest so followed Atiku toe to toe. Power to the north has guided all of Atiku's presidential bids since the 1990s. |
Tell some southern Nigerians that undue large number of states were created by northern soldiers in the old Northern region, especially in the NE and NW; these southerners will reply you that the land mass of Borno state or Niger State alone is larger than the land mass of all the Southeastern or all the Southwestern states put together. Unfortunately for these southerners, they think that land mass or population figures is used as criterion to create new federating units in a country formed by diverse regions. |
pinkPUSSY:Through the skewed and lopsided political structure of Nigeria created by northern soldiers who proliferated a large number of states in the far north, with corresponding number of political representation in the central government of Nigeria, the Atikus of the far north largely dictate who can be what in Nigeria. Unfortunately, loads of southern politicians do not understand that land mass or population figures is never used as criterion to proliferate too many new states or LGAs in an area with larger land mass, in a country formed by diverse regions. Because of this, Atiku could look President Jonathan in the face and tell Jonathan to relinquish power to Atiku. |
Lizzysamuel:Who could have put it better? Increasing poverty in a country, Nigeria, where people choose president based on religion and tribe. But tell the religion and tribe people to have their own separate countries from others, they refuse. |
One thing: see as Asiwaju Tinubu just de look them. He knows that all they were doing there are falsehood contrived to take crude oil from the Niger Delta up to the sharia states, as well as rake in more shared revenues to the Sharia states. Tinubu knows those people more than they know themselves.
|
oikirodah:President Muhammadu Buhari who sees himself as the 21st Century Othman Dan Fodio of Arewa - here is his other achievement for Arewa. But truth is that European oil companies would have been drilling this oil in the north if its of any commercial value. Another billions of Naira sunk - like in Kaduna Refined built by Japanese Chiyoda. |
tunapawizzy:Zone of highest poverty rate largely deciding who becomes president of Nigeria is at the core of Nigeria's leadership problems and poverty. Muhammadu Buhari became president of a Nigeria boasting of having loads of its Diaspora citizens as technocrats and administrators running US, UK, Saudi, Canadian government institutions and technology companies. |
ugbarreta:What tribal war? Northerners know the true poverty situation and are not bothered. It's only MURIC people in the SW who see Lagos urban sprawl and start to believe that all the SW region is flowing with milk, honey and modern development. They call the SE villages. But unknown to them, there is hardly any place in the SE that looks like the interior village the MURIC people wished for the entire SE. Even Prof WS mentioned Village Burial Ceremony when Chinua Achebe died. So? |
A Fulani Muslim, Atiku, cannot succeed another Fulani Muslim, President Buhari, in contemporary Nigeria. Nigeria is not Fulani country. Atiku should have known this, not waste his time overheating the polity. Or does Atiku want a disintegration of Nigeria? |
Is the Senator a dead wood as well, that she cannot see that Tinubu is not mentally healthy due to old age? |
pinkPUSSY:Look at poverty in the SS which gives Nigeria the crude oil money since the last 70 years. SS is supposed to be like Dubai by now, if not for a false step of some leaders of the SS during the early stages of the civil war. Then, the Their aged leaders told Arewa leaders then to cut the non Igbo speaking sections of the then Eastern region out of Biafra. Gowon jumped on that, created Cross River and Rivers states. |
Timmi:Your Arewa master is over represented in the National Assembly. This over representation which Arewa derives from the too many and undue number of states proliferated by Arewa soldiers in Arewa area. In that National Assembly, you want legislators from the east who are few to move a motion for referendum to be included in the Constitution. You don't see that Arewa Reps will shout down the proposal for referendum? You are a nitwit. I can't classify all your tribesmen as nit wits, because I am not a nitwit like you who insult a tribe of more than 50 million people together. |
