Politics › Re: 2027: We Must Fight Like Wounded Lion To Deliver Tinubu – Imo APC Chairman by opeldavid: 11:30pm On Jul 02
Ruling party at both Federal and State level still wanting to fight like a wounded lion to win elections? It only shows one thing...they are afraid because they know they will surely lose. That's guaranteed!!

Good one from Kwankwaso!

South East and South South is already in the bag. Victory is already assured. We did it the last time in 2023 we shall do it even more in 2027.

Peter Obi is coming!!! We told them before. A new Nigeria is possible!!!
Tinubu has not been sleeping very well since Peter Obi's name was uploaded as our presidential candidate.
Politics › Re: Why Are Obidients Attacking Adeboye? Intolerance Is Becoming Too Loud To Ignore. by opeldavid: 2:40pm On Jul 01
Shut up!!!

And gettat!!

CharlesCNG:
The recent attacks on Pastor Enoch Adeboye over his comments on insecurity and President Tinubu reveal something troubling about the Obidient movement: many of them do not merely disagree; they desecrate.

Pastor Adeboye’s point was not that Nigeria is secure. In fact, he admitted that insecurity has worsened and that terrorism and kidnapping have spread from the North into parts of the South. He also urged that security chiefs be given strict marching orders and that sponsors of terrorism should be dealt with. His only offence was saying that once a Commander-in-Chief gives instructions to security agencies, he should not be expected to personally wear khaki and go to the battlefield.

Reasonable people can debate that position. They can say the President must do more. They can argue that command responsibility must be measured by results, not merely by instructions. That is fair.

But what did some Obidients do? As usual, they entered abuse mode. Suddenly, Adeboye became the enemy. A man they once quoted when it suited them became useless because he did not echo their preferred political anger.

Worse still, some now accuse him of ethnic bias, suggesting that he is defending Tinubu simply because Tinubu is Yoruba. This is one of the oldest tricks in Nigerian politics: when you cannot answer a man’s argument, explain his ancestry.

Curiously, this accusation is never applied evenly. If a Yoruba criticises Tinubu, he is praised as courageous and objective. If another Yoruba supports Tinubu, he is dismissed as tribalistic. If a Yoruba elder supports Peter Obi, he is celebrated as detribalised and enlightened. But if a Yoruba pastor says something that does not condemn Tinubu in the language Obidients prefer, he is suddenly an ethnic apologist.

That is intellectual dishonesty.

People support or defend political positions for many reasons: conviction, ideology, policy preference, institutional understanding, personal experience, or yes, sometimes ethnicity. But it is lazy and dishonest to assume tribal motive only when the opinion favours the candidate you oppose.

The real question is not whether Tinubu is Yoruba. The real question is whether Adeboye’s argument is right or wrong. If you disagree, answer the argument. Do not hide behind ethnicity because the facts are inconvenient.

This is the deeper problem. To many Obidients, every institution must bow to their politics: church leaders, traditional rulers, courts, media houses, INEC, security agencies, intellectuals, activists — everybody must either worship at the altar of Obi or be insulted.

That is not democratic engagement. That is political intolerance wearing activism as perfume.

No society grows when every disagreement becomes a licence for abuse. You can disagree with Adeboye without insulting his age, his faith, his office, his ethnicity, or millions who respect him. But restraint is difficult for people who treat politics like a crusade.

The tragedy is that this behaviour keeps pushing decent people away from their cause. They claim to want a new Nigeria, but they attack every voice that refuses to sing from their hymn book.

If Pastor Adeboye must be corrected, correct him with argument.

But if your first response is abuse and ethnic labelling, then the problem is no longer Adeboye’s statement.

The problem is your intolerance.

For when a man cannot answer your argument, he often settles for explaining your tribe. And when facts become inconvenient, ethnicity becomes the emergency exit.

Politics › Re: Pastor Adeboye Under Jonathan Vs Tinubu by opeldavid: 1:47pm On Jul 01
During Jonathan Adeboye staged a protest and even petitioned Jonathan over failure on security but during Tinubu his own tribes man, baba said Tinubu has done his bit that we do not expect him to wear khaki and join the army. Have y'all seen the level of hypocrisy?

I think it's high time baba should just shut up over this matter. It's not by force to speak just like prof GbajueWole Soyinka has shut up.

Make sure you take your drugs , time is far gone and it's affecting your mental state and reasoning. Peter Obi will continue to be your night mare.

helinues:
Because the trouble makers are no longer in the party

It is not coincidence that internal party issue made Obi to fled Apga, Pdp was doing fine until Obi joined, GEJ loss, he paired with Atiku in 2019, they loss, 2023 he ran to LP, the party that was also doing fine started having executives issue, after the 2023 he went to ADC, still katakata happened there, now that he's in NDC another gbege is happening

Peter Obi probably have the magic hands of acid. Whatever he touches always melt

Trump should do more.
His assertion is not really okay.

His intervention should be continuous and consistent. These terrorists have gone rogue and bunkers.

What's this one saying?

Talking rubbish?

SundiKeita:
Me thinks its more strategic than anything else..
Ghana plan was to top group L or finish 3rd best conceding 1 goal against them...finishing 2nd in group L isnt an option. Both round 32 and round 16 games for 2L runner up is being played in Canada meaning Ghanaian player Thomas Partey who has been denied visa by Canada misses both games if Ghana make it that far..
Looks like their plan worked
Politics › Re: The Reason Why APC Will Keep Winning Elections by opeldavid: 12:21pm On Jun 28
By collaborating with the judiciary and given judgement to deregister opposition parties.

That's how APC plans to win. Defeat is starring them right in the face even with all the planned rigging.

I can't believe this is happening.
After the US and Israel bombarding Iran and even killing their supreme leader on the first day of the war, yet they came out strong to the extent of forcing the US to a negotiation.

So unbelievable.
