I keep wondering if Prof. Yemi Osinbajo was on the ballot (even in another Political party) for 2023 General Election, would other Presidential candidates have had any chance?
Msntv: The Nigerian Universities Commission (NUC) recently announced a three-week election break for all universities in the country. The decision has drawn mixed reactions from students, parents, and other stakeholders.NUC's Three-Week Election Break To Universities Draws Mixed Reactions myschoolnews reporting.
The NUC stated that the break is necessary to enable students and staff members to participate in the electoral process as voters and ad-hoc staff members. The commission also directed that no academic activities should take place during the period of the election break, which has been scheduled for February 14 to March 7, 2023.
Some students have expressed dissatisfaction with the decision, stating that the break will further disrupt the academic calendar that has already been affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. Others have welcomed the decision, citing the importance of participating in the electoral process.
Parents and other stakeholders have also shared mixed reactions to the decision. Some have expressed concern that the extended break will have a negative impact on the education of students, while others have praised the move as a necessary step towards promoting civic responsibility and democratic participation.
The NUC's decision to extend the academic calendar and suspend academic activities during the election break is aimed at ensuring that students and staff members can fully participate in the electoral process without being hindered by academic obligations.

peepydelano: I have always advised igbos to go back to the drawing board and restrategise but they seems to be neck deep in their Nzogbu Nzogbu politics. Obi would have maintained a very cordial and loyal relationship with Atiku but greed, disloyalty and what have you deceived him. Atiku is the only person that’s ready to handover to an Igbo man but igbos will always disappoint you with their disloyalty and oversense which has always cost them the chance of leadership in Nigeria.
Atiku is a greedy fellow by contesting when another Northerner is just finishing. This won't be his first time of losing an Election so it won't pain him like Tinubu
The North has two strong candidates. Even though one is weaker than the other.
The South also has two strong candidates. Although one is weaker, despite being in the ruling party
The middle belt vote cast will play a great role in determining the winner of the Presidential election as the North West which PDP is banking on is thoroughly split between the 4 candidates.
Tofax: Remi Tinubu, the wife of the APC presidential flag bearer Bola Tinubu, has promised to whip her husband into line should he “derail” after becoming the president.
“We will not disappoint you. Asiwaju will not derail after becoming president. You can count on me to bring him back to line should he derail,” Mrs Tinubu, a senator, promised.
The former Lagos first lady said this on Tuesday at the grand finale of the APC presidential campaign rally at the Teslim Balogun stadium.
“We are now at a critical stage of our campaign. This is our grand finale. God is still faithful. Asiwaju can only become our next president if you go out and vote for him on Saturday,” she appealed to APC members and supporters at the stadium.
Mrs Tinubu added, “You know we have been consistent for the past 23 years, and we are not going to disappoint you. Asiwaju is not running because there is an opportunity for power. He is running because he sees a need he wants to meet.”
Meanwhile, Mr Tinubu has praised President Muhammadu Buhari for supporting his presidential ambition ahead of Saturday’s race.
“Thank you, Mr President, for all you have done. The primaries came; I contested and won. You congratulated me. You didn’t ask them to reverse it based on my religion. You didn’t ask them to change it because I am not from your village in Daura,” stated the APC presidential standard-bearer.
He added, “After winning the party’s primaries, I came to you to choose a running mate for me. You said no, I should go and search by myself that I am intelligent and experienced enough to choose the right person. Then, I brought Kasim Shetima to you. You encouraged me. Thank you, Mr President.”
He also praised the president, who “just returned to the country yesterday, and you promised to be here today, and you are here. You never changed your promise. I want to say thank you, join me to say thank you.”
Ritchiee: lol Ipob Obi imps and deceit and lies are like 2 and 3. Watch the video.That was when the chairman was about taking Tinubu's hand and raising it after.Buhari took Tinubu and later that of SanwoOlu and raised them whereby the chairman also was about taking Tinubu's right hand when that picture was taken. Mumu post from Obi mum
Where's the video Create thread and post your fake video
I was present at a presidential rally or political rally for the first time in my life. I purposely travelled from my place to the venue just to examine if Obi can possibly cause major upset to Tinubu ambition in Lagos as purported by many supporters of Obi.
From what I saw, Tinubu will win Lagos state convincingly the same way Atiku will win Adamawa state. I project landslide victory for both of them in their respective states.
Though, there were empty seats at Tinubu rally today but not as many as the ones in the pictures posted by Reno. The pictures were taken very early.
Below are the pictures I took from the rally.
That shows you're part of the imported crowd for Tinubu who can't vote in Lagos
