₦airaland Forum

Nairaland needs to start conducting mental exam before allowing some people on this forum.

Nobody will take being ignored and deceived easily. Wike's anger is not losing the election but being ignored by Atiku after majority of the party big wigs presented him as a running mate.

Even Osinbajo and Amaechi that Lamido is using as an example, has either of the two supported Tinubu openly after the primaries? Atiku even made maters worse by defending his choice with baseless reasons.

After the primaries, the first thing he would have done was to mend fence before traveling to Dubai. This election is between Atiku and Obi to lose, as Tinubu has been scoring own goals lately. But Atiku is not showing any signs of seriousness. He forgot that Rivers state has the second-largest voting strength in the south. With the right strategy, the state will pull more vote than even Delta the home state of his running mate.

Whatever support PDP is having now is as a result of APC's all-round foolishness. That's why Obi has already become a formidable force, and campaign hasn't even started.

Prince111111:
are you now implying that Wike is bigger than PDP that made him?? Or did Ameachi not also spend for APC?? Or Tinubu didn't spend his fortunes to help Buhari? and did Buhari ever supported Tinubu in his ambition? Wike needs to grow up before the time leaves him by

What do you think is the reason for the agitation? You are just pointing out the fact that the Biafran agitation is because of the level of marginalization against the South East.

Totilopussylick:
Obi has turned out to be an excuse for even closet Biafrans to betray open emotions about Biafra without being accused of it.




Nnamudi kcownu became irrelevant to the people of south east since Obi came out to contest for Nigeria president.

@ the bolded, that will be difficult for Atiku to win NW and NE. Where did you keep Tinubu. Also, it's highly unlikely for Atiku to win even one of SS, SE, or SW. These regions are between Obi and Tinubu, and it seems Obi has the upper hand there already.

The election next year will be the most intriguing in Nigeria's history. That is only what I know.

APCnaPDP:
You are not correct. North Carries the bulk of votes in Nigeria and would need only one region in the south to win. If Atiku for instance, wins NE and NW, he will need only SS or SE to win.

The Op has deleted the post.

Minjim:
It trending on Twitter already .ive trying to locate his account to verify it

You need to be banned for posting a fake account and claiming it's from Datti.

Seun, Mynd44

omenka:
As seen on the LP Vice Presidential candidate's verified Facebook handle.



This leaves one to wonder if their admonition that their supporters be more tolerant of other people's choices and opinions, and tone down the insults, threats, and attacks, is just for the optics, and deep down, they support their conduct.


Cc: Seun, Mynd44.

If he is a terrorist, why has the UN given Nigeria an order to release him? The real terrorists are in the north, ransacking everyone and you will not talk. They went to south west in Owo and did what they know how to do best, you did not talk. But you are here barking like a malnourished bingo.

Your house dey burn you leave everything dey pursue rat.

If you finish barking go and stop Obi from becoming president let me see.

sukkot:
well can you explain what he is doing at the burial of a terrorists father ? this is him at nnamdi kanus fathers burial. what is a future nigerian president doing attending the burial of a terrorists father ? walahi talahi this peter obi is ipob

Okay good luck

But let me ask again. Is it the Tinubu that chased Ambode away for Sanwo-olu?

The one that campaigned to bring Buhari?

Okay, good luck again.

diadem10:
Yes. I will choose Tinubu.

Because apart from the fact that Tinubu is a first class graduate. His legacies are littered all over Lagos. Not to mention the fact that he improved Lagos' revenue and made Lagos' thrived despite Obasanjo seizing Lagos allocation for several years.


Peter Obi is a D pass graduate who achieved absolute nothing in Anambra state apart from investing state funds into his family business yet you want anyone to preside over us? Na ment?

As for Atiku, he's got no achievement either apart from looting the federal purse through the privatisation he supervised.

Abeg help me tell am. How can someone be comparing America and Italy with the situation we have here?

He even forgot to know that it could be the real age of those ones. We don't even know whether Tinubu is 15 years older than he claims.

Plus, the signs of old age are already showing on his recent speeches.

TimmyTen:
The prayer above is not a bad prayer except you have doubts about the candidate you are supporting, also the countries you mentioned can afford to run on auto pilot with old Presidents because they have working institutions. What does Nigeria have that is working today??

He is not winning, but fit spoil market for others.

chudez0147:
DamnNigga
You mean 3 contenders, Kwankwaso is on his own. Doesn't stand a chance

If the person attack you back now, you go begin dey cry.

diadem10:
Says an Ipob miscreant. Go put your effort into listing Peter Obi achievement or shut up.

Give points to counter him. Leave insults, Abi you no dey tire?

yomi961:
another delusional baby politician

Very correct. It's no longer party affiliation but the caliber and competence of the person contesting.

Penguin2:
That’s what’s up!

I’m not from Benue but I feel Fr Alia will best protect the interest of Benue people coupled with the fact that he’s intelligent and would deliver.

I'm not for APC or PDP, but I'm voting Father Alia of APC next year. APC is just a name, na some people wey dey the party bad.

Meanwhile, Obidient for national.

Penguin2:
I thought you people wanted to vote Fr Alia?

A mentally unstable person calling another person mentally unstable. Like seriously, you mentioned Anambra, Eboni, Delta, and Imo as states Obi cannot win?

Which part of the world are you staying? I hope they have a mental institution there to check yourself in?

jrusky:
I'm really sorry for human that lack thinking and reflex capacity like you.

You lack critical political understanding infact you reason like slowpoke in every of your statement I pity your foundation. Money wasted to send you to school would have be much better to use for farming or send you to learn how to sell gala because you only went through school but wth your correct logic standing upside way you think school never passed through you.

Pls if not you are mentally unstable and lack mental capacity how can someone who will never win a single state in SW, the North and can never win Bayelsa, Rivers, Anambra, Ebonyi, Imo even Delta will become the president? Are you insane or what?

Anybody that fails to grab Lagos, Kano, Kaduna, Ibadan, Borno, Katsina, Adamawa, Osun, Bayelsa, Rivers , Anambra, Imo can never become the president bro and bet you obishit can never win any of these states listed above put your cash on table.

Use your brain no miracle in Africa politics takless Nigria politics.

Anukpama bloody odukum. Your foolishness reach heaven dem neva tell you.

Exactly. Even many of my Muslim friends I know are not okay with it.

Arysexy:
God bless you.

As if Muslims can tolerate 16yrs straight rule of Christian leader. To even add salt to injury, another 8yrs of Muslim Muslim ticket after Buhari showed us what Islam is capable of with a pastor VP.

You are not a Christian. If you are, you will not support a muslim rule after 8 years of the same muslim rule without any positive result.

I don't know why some so-called Christians are not seeing this from the right perspective. Many Christians, including me, voted for Buhari against Jonathan, another Christian, in his first tenure. But seeing what he did in his first four years, a voted against him.

I can't see an Obi, a Tinubu, and an Atiku and leave Obi for either of the two. No, I can't do that because I'm not insane!!

ceede2:
Some days ago, one politician congratulate the new CAN president, it was condemned by some ingrates who like to force their candidate on another person, another politician go to church and worship God as usual, they call it breaking News, ' cos He is the most righteous!!

I'm a christian, but if other politician like Atiku/Tiunbu go to their place of worship do they bring it to NL? Capital NO.

Him for no knee down worship God before, hypocrite everywhere.

No be every body on NL daft, before una go post rubbish about the so call Saint Obi, make una know say listeners 'r everywhere.

All this one no they move me, na only God know who dey worship am.



Next please.

And our senators have gone on six weeks recess. This country is a big joke. None of those legislators actually came for the interest of the country.

Watching their "Buhari must go" chant, you will see the level of unseriouness on their faces.

I lost a very good friend, who was a major in the Army, to bandits last month.

The tales of the horrid ambush makes me weep for this country.

Keep resting in peace Emeka Aboaja!!

It was between GEJ and Buhari. This time, it's between Obi and Tinubu/Atiku/Kwankwaso.

U get the point now?

babyfaceafrica:
Nairaland politician. Na so dem talk say GEJ go win 2015

We are OBidiently Yusful

Buhari just needs to go. And to think he has once ruled as a military man with the same failure makes Nigeria a laughing stock.

The naira has crashed further in the parallel market, trading for N710 against the U.S. dollar on the exchange platform Aboki Forex.

Checks by Peoples Gazette on Wednesday showed the current parallel market rate pegged at N710 to a dollar.

The national currency, which traded for N670 against the dollar on Monday, has fallen even further by 6.7 percent in two days as of Friday afternoon, according to data from Aboki Forex.

Today’s record fall comes a year after the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) prohibited the sale of foreign currency to bureau de change operators.

Naira against the dollar at the Investors and Exporters window has decreased from N164 when Godwin Emefiele became governor of the central bank in March 2014 to N430 to a dollar on Wednesday.

In the parallel market, the Naira weakened from N180 to a dollar in 2014 to N710 on Wednesday.

That is exactly the point. Even if Labour Party wins the Presidential Election, Peter Obi will have a horrid time moving this country foward due to the type of legislators we have in the country right now.

We all know that a restructure of the country is long overdue. But those benefiting selfishly from this current contraception won't let that happen.

WibusJaga:


Most actions or decisions on National issues are taken from the perspective of Religious, Tribal or Party affiliations rather than from the perspective of rationality or overall interest of the masses.

This has been the bane of this geographical contraption called Nigeria. & we will never make any meaningful progress like this.

What are you even saying? Must you comment?

Obansy112:
There are more yoruba's in North central than Ibo.

So you threw Kwankwaso by the corner?

There was still voter apathy in the South East because many people couldn't decide between Buhari and Atiku.

Obi was merely a VP then, just like Okowa now.

But this time he is contesting.

That's the difference.

ejimatic:
. In 2019 when Obi was the VP to Atiku did the SE have voting apartheid? INo! gbos across the country voted Obi yet North decided the election! As for now the two candidates in the North are Atiku and Tinubu. If you see any LP group in the north it is dominated by the Igbos who live there! The bitter truth is a true Northerner will not vote Obi. As for their choice between Atiku and Tinubu time will tell

Okay. Thank you for having an open mind.

I'm like that too. But this is not the only interview I've watched of him.

I've done my own personal research about other major candidates, and I'm convinced he is the best for the job.

I Know he may not do all I wish for the country, but he ticks most of the boxes.


There is still time to make your choice. So, take your time to study them.

Arelyn:
If you go through my comments here on nairaland, you will observe I am fully detribalised, unapologetically withdrawn from religious dogmatism and I place logic above emotions in my analysis of any subject matter...

Having said that, I watched the interview with every optimism in me to hear from the rave of the moment, the man of the people but I tell you what, I was disappointed but that may be a good standard to you, I don't know you and can't hold you to any standard.....I agreed he may be better than that but if I put up a performance like that in a job interview, I am dead sure I won't get the job...

No negotiation. Go and watch the interview.

RexTramadol1:
Not really, he’s opening a way for reconciliation.

I don't know why many people are underestimating the population strength of the South East.

These people are many in other regions because their place is geographally too small for them.

In addition, many in the South East have voter apethied, but not this time.

People are also forgetting that for the first time in a long history, the North is torn between three candidates.

Add that to the Christian thing and Buhari's regime and you will see that Obi will have reasonable votes in the North.

Besides rigging, LP will win this election hands down if it were conducted today.

ejimatic:
. My fears about Northerners date back to what I read about them concerning 1966 and years after. They have population and voting strength with. a large number of them coming out to vote as early as 3am in order to protect their interests and focus... They know how to spring surprises. If you listen to Atiku recently he captured the strength and capacity of the North with the following words:. 90 percent of Northeners are not on social media....Obi cannot win the election.....etc.... In my opinion for Obi to win in 2023 there must a great synergy btween the South East and the North. This for now is an impossibility! What Biafra IPOB and other groups cannot achieve for the North can't be easily achieved through a free and fear election. For now No Northerner will make a reliable on 2023 yet they what they are doing in the interest of the region

I watched the interview too. If you see his points from an unbiased mind, you will understand what he can do if elected.

Arelyn:
"The best way to avoid disappointment is to not expect anything from anyone"

I think our media houses need to give more airtime to those presidential aspirants that are considered to be on the fringes...Let's hear from people like Adewole Adebayo( SDP), Peter Umeadi (APGA), Ado-Malik( YPP), Sowore ( AAC) and others

Facts don't care about how you feel, in this just concluded interview OBI disappointed me, I have seen him conduct himself better in other interviews but this one was quite poor...Even though Seun's questions were shallow and basic as well, OBI appeared to be veering off from the questions, looking away from the centre line screen as if he is been fed some pointers.

There is no need to dish out statistics that a basic google check will prove wrong

He seems to be the rave of the moment and if he is the most intelligent of the top 4 candidates as I am led to believe, then we have a long way to go in this country.

##Fact don't care about how you feel###

A 1 hour interview on so many questions. How can he be precise here now?

He said an agreement should be binding. That's exactly ASUU's problem with the Fed govt.

Obi also gave example of his agreement with state ASUU when he was in Anambra.

The school is not on strike now that ASUU Nationwide is on strike because of that agreement.

How exactly do you want him to b precise?

Ventura1:
Obi is not being precise on how he'll handle education. Will he implement FG/ASUU agreement as sign?

You give so much credit to Northerners. That's exactly the thinking faculty of Northern politicians.

But 2023 will shock them.

ejimatic:
How many Northeners view Channels TV? ..... Atiku

I watched the interview and I'm even more impressed. But please stop the insult. It will not achieve anything.

ODE!
