Tinubu’s decision is political not religious.
The fact that PDP is against that move should tell a good thinking person that Tinubu made a strategic decision.
If Tinubu had made a decision that would make him lose election, do you think PDP would worry about it.
In the Northern Nigeria politics is mixed with religion.
Those people will do what their cleric tells them.
Tinubu need a strong Muslim. Northern Nigeria is already an Islamic state wether we believe it or not. They operate Sharia law. They stone anyone who insult their Prophet to death and Nigeria law enforcement can’t really do anything about it.
I am not asking you to vote for Tinubu but not voting him means power returns to the North for another 8 years. That would be 16 years of Hausa Fulani as president.
In 2031 you will face the same situation again; the north will bring another candidate and if you use the same sentiment again power goes back to the North.
I suggest you forget about what CAN is saying and think about why they are not against PDP who failed to zone their presidency to the south the way APC did.
Tambuwal and Atiku colluded against Wike. The same way the Cabal colluded against Tinubu.
Think outside the box brother.
God bless you.

Onigawara:
After the primaries, after seeing some Yoruba elements on this forum trying to convince us on the need to maintain a united front on our quest for power to return to the South, I even contemplated giving Tinubu my vote.

But what did the silly old man do?
Yh he disregarded the existence of we the Christians in this country by choosing a Muslim to be his VP, claiming there are no competent Northern Christian to pair up with him. What an insult. As if that wasn't enough, the old thief hired local Yoruba agberos to impersonate the highly respected bishops of our faith. Unforgivable!. Tinubu is a religious extremist and a tribal bigot. Whatever happens, he must NOT win the 2023 presidential election.
I'm counting on CAN to campaign massively against him. Everyone must step up their game. Everyone must be enlightened on the dangers of voting Tinubu into power

Not all snakes are venomous. Ball Pythons are timid and won't hurt you.
This is not about business, its just something they should have taught us in Secondary school Biology.

mastermaestro:
Snakes make good pet, chief? Just enjoy your business.

Please educate yourself.
I run a pet website and there many things we don't know about reptiles.
Check https://www.amadopets.com/reptiles/ and look at the reptiles section and learn about snakes.
Snakes makes good pets.

Urheadmaster:
No matter the beauty of snake.

It can never make a good pets

He created the problem his party, APC, is currently facing in Osun now. From paying half salary to destroying the educational system.
The road that led to my house has been officially tarred. But in reality, the potholes are like 3 feet deep.
If you lie down inside any of the potholes, an oncoming vehicle won't see you.
We went to Osogbo to complain, they brought out the file for our road, the record show it has been tarred.
The useless politicians already stole the money.
Thank God, another party will start checking their books now.

Including those structures on the erosion channel?

LibertyRep:
Sometimes I wish instead of demolishing 'illegal' structures, government should convert them to some other uses.

Don't be myopic.
Nobody is going back to 2015.
The economy of the United States did not grow during Donald Trump. America's GDP under Donald Trump was the worst since 1928, during President Hoover's term.
No country grew their economy during the pandemic.
Stop looking at Nigeria's economy as if it is isolated from the rest of the world.
Oil price changes affected every country in the world.
I am not saying Buhari performed up to our expectation; things got screwed up beyond what his tribalistic brain could manage.
However, the US dollar went up and down based on the global market, not just Nigeria.
I hope you are a reasonable person.
Please correct me with facts if I am wrong. Peace!

kolafolabi:
In 2015, I cast my vote for Buhari. I had so much confidence in him. Most of the top politicians that sold him to me are still in APC while some had left for reasons known to them.

Buhari has broken my heart. I strongly recommend he should take me back to 2015 when Dollar to Naira was 165, Petrol was 87 and a bag of rice was 8,000.

The aduro has already failed.
He is probably going to be prosecuted in the UK for trying to game the system by lying that he was 15 years old.
The Ekweremadus are going to be released and all charges would be dropped.

BeeBeeOoh:


Forget matter, God has used the Ekweremadu's to butter David Ukpo's bread.

One thing that's sacrosanct is that he's gonna seek for aduro in UK and they'll give him better aduro to chop.

Is Peter Obi trying to be a Bishop or the President of Nigeria?
Why all these religious and tribal sentiments?
Why not let us campaign for him based on his competence?
The Muslims voted Buhari and they still suffer the most interms of security, poverty and highest out of school children.
The vice president is a Christian, what has he done for the body of christ?
Our head of state here is an homosexual and this is one of the best country in the continental Europe.
Forget about all these religious nonsense. No politician has any religion. They will do anything to win vote.
Peter Obi may end up joining APC. They only pursue their ambition.
Atiku moved from PDP to APC and back in PDP again.
Peter Obi moved from APGA to PDP now in LP.
You will be wasting your time if your think any politician in Africa care about you.

muzeze77:
Southerners and xtians have to realize when u vote for obi , u are voting to remain relevant in Nigeria , if the majority of xtians that are bout 48 percent of the population vote for him , then the other 2 candidates share the other 52 percent , obi will win, it's not about obi it's about remaining relevant,there is no difference between apc and pdp, many politicians have defected multiple times between the 2 parties, we need a country where even a babalawo can become president and not just a member of a particular region or religion

How old are you?

ogoloray:
Press like, if it secretly makes you happy that elites are also now losing their lives to insurgency...
Click share if you feel sad about it!

His deputy wouldn't have won.
The VP can't win Atiku in the north.
We all want a very smart man like Osinbajo to become the president, but the illiterate Northerners won't vote for him.
The main goal of a political party is to win elections.
There is no sentiment or emotions needed.
No matter how popular Obi is in the South; he won't get the 25% vote in the North.
Obi should have stayed in the PDP and fight for the ticket there.
Nigerian politics makes no sense.

mycar:
But he was mute during the primaries, instead of endorsing his deputy, someone that served you diligently, took all the bullets for you. Very poor sense of judgement.

That is the same as making people doing things against their own will. An action like this is called oppression.
What if I chose not to vote? Is it the right of the pastor to stop me from worshipping my God?
It’s the same as the Boko Haram forcing everyone to become a Muslim.
Just look beyond the sentiment.
You can’t even force student not to attend school because they refuse to have voters card.
It’s unconstitutional and totally illegal.
Do that in Europe and you will find yourself in a serious legal trouble.

ValCon888:
I'm 100% in support of the church enforcing its members to get their PVCs to perform their civic duty.

Religion and politics are intricately intertwined in Nigeria. Politicians often play the religion card to get votes, including "divide and conquer tactics to win elections.

There's an agenda to Islamize this country. It's not a coincidence the Buhari administration witnessed the rise of Fulani herdsmen, bandits, and the pardon and rehabilitation of Boko Haram terrorists.

It's up to the leaders of Christendom to rouse their flock to take action.

America's GDP under Donald Trump was the worst since 1928, during President Hoover's term.
No country grew their economy during the pandemic.

You are a very intelligent man.
I am surprised nobody is asking who told the man to bring a girl in the first place.
What was the prior arrangement between the native doctor and the father.
They are both ritualists and accomplices.

PeriodicTable:
And what if she wasn't his daughter? Will the jazzman have gone ahead or called the police as he did? Anyway, he did right.

If your house is on fire will you stay inside?

Ghester:
And we keep running away from our country

Oh. I see.
Governance is a game?
It's about disrespect and emotions.
One day you and other people will approach politics intellectually.
When you are faced with a serious legal problem you go for the best lawyer to save you from going to prison.
You don't choose a quack lawyer just to spite someone.
During the last presidential election we had in my small country here, all the political party adopted the same president to continue for another term of 7 years.
Presidential election was the least of our problems.
Till date, I don't know what county or town our president come from.
Instead of you worrying about who has the capacity to lead Nigeria right you are busy with payback.
Hopefully, you wont start shouting Biafra or no election by December.
Good luck to you.

FatherOfJesus:
he doesn't have to favour me. It's the game.
You cannot disrespect us here and expect us to vote for you.
We alps need Obi to be president as well, so we are going to campaign for him and make sure he gets block vote in southeast and become at least second in Southsouth behind Atiku.

Tinubu cannot disregard his people totally then go and romance the enemy. The only thing Atiku needs to beat him is to get the support of all the Islamic clerics in the north and all is over.

Tinubu is gone, he should wait for another 8years

How does paying him back in 2023 favour your own political situation?
Are you going to elect someone who is going to further your political interest or you are only interested in hurting Tinubu?
How you guys reason is really very worrisome.
I am sure some people will go into depression if or when Tinubu wins the presidential election.
Best of luck.

FatherOfJesus:
Tinubu is a Nigerian like every other person.
But he betrayed us down south by his evident romance with the north.
We will pay him back in 2023 and let's see how he will defeat Atiku or Kwankwaso in core North.
He didn't even visit my own state in Southsouth, he thinks that we don't matter

Unfortunately, that's not the way God operates.
One or some of those babies on that chair is going to end up being a looter and probably an armed robber or a terrorist.
Process is the main thing when it comes to quality control. If you get the process wrong, the end product will be very bad.
Nigeria is like a giant faulty printing press. Everything being produce is mostly wasted prints.
That's the best way to look at it.
Corrupt system always produce corrupt people and corrupt people keep the system goin. The cycle continues.

Realadey:
Hmmmmm.
You are right bro, I wish that God can just wipe this generation of looters

Very sad really.
That's was the beginning of the rest of their sojourn on the earth.
Some of them probably won't make it to their 5th birthday.
Africa is a cursed land.

Realadey:
The babies sleeping on the chairs touch me to the bone marrow

The OP brought a very good thesis. This should lead to an intelligent discussion but the same youth whose future has been stolen derailed the post.

It's sad how Nairaland has evolved. There use to be sensible discussion on this forum.

Unfortunately, Seun and his moderators would, unbelievably, allow some tribalism and other sensitive post to get to the home page all because of the display ad revenue they will generate.

MadamVanessa:

So what Salvador meant is that Tinubu won't be urinating again in his dilapidated body? All thanks to Osinbajo for single handedly making Tinubu to be whole again. Instead of Tinubu urchins to be grateful to Osibanjo they're insulting him , calling him Judas up and down.

Refering to someone who is aging as having a dilapidated body only means your own parents are cyborgs.
You mind sharing pictures of your parents with us and let us see how they look.
Stupid kids everywhere.

It’s a medical condition called hereditary Angioedema.

tamdun:
Former Germany chancellor was against Ukraine joining nato, she knew what the out come would look like....

Do you think Russia would have attacked Ukraine if she is a member of NATO?

Padipadi:
Critical thinker, you tried with your alibi for Adedoyin. But the evidences are there & you ll be shocked that justice ll prevail. I m not a fan of Oriyomi Hamzat.
I speak from the right source. You & others like you ll be shocked

I am just curious, did you ever attend any of the court sessions?
Do you honestly think the police investigated this crime properly?
I pray to God for justice to be served and whoever killed Timothy shall not escape justice no matter who have decided to help them.
Please, keep an open mind.

Padipadi:
He should've been charged for murder directly n told to come n defend. All evidence should be brought against him.
As far as I learned, there are multiple evidence that indicated Adedoyin n co murdered Timothy. Including the CCTV evidence Timothy's family has.
The case no suppose last 1 month in a sane society

Stop listening to Oriyomi Hamzat.
There was no CCTV evidence. The IPO Inspector Afeez said “I asked for the CCTV, they told me it is not working due to the construction work they are doing, and I had no reason to ask further because I saw the ongoing renovation work”
The only reason Adedoyin was in court was because he is the owner of the hotel.
He hasn’t been in that hotel for 6 month prior to the incident.
Police need to prove that he killed or conspired to kill the gentleman.
Even if the autopsy proved he was killed, the police still has to prove beyond reasonable doubt that the accused persons killed him.
No judge will send 7 people to be hanged just because they were unlucky to take a 25k per month job in an hotel.
Till today, the police didn’t question any of the 17 guest at the hotel. I am sure the defence will ask why those guest were exonerated but a staff who was not on duty was arrested.
Think critically before you respond and no point attack my person. Focus on the subject and let’s have intelligent discussion. God bless.

VULCAN:
So a musician buying a chain is front page news on Nairaland.


Nairaland has really fallen far from its pinnacle.

The sad part is that there are a lot of sensible topics that are languishing in their threads

Anyway, Let's keep managing this till something more sensible comes along.

Nairaland is no longer about sensible posts. It’s about engagements. They need posts that can get attention and drag to multiple pages. That’s how they show ads to people.
Nairaland is for money making for the owner and stakeholders.
You will see useless posts on front pages once it can cause people to engage through comments and shares.

naijaguy123456:
You surely don’t know the pain Ige family went through. The evidences are there, Obasanjo protected Omisore from arrest and the case was buried.

The same way, you don't know the pain Omisore's family are going through when you come up with this Bola Ige story every election season.
Obasanjo has been out of power for almost two decades, why haven't you people release the evidence.

Do you honestly think the APC government has the evidence of murder, and they didn't use it when he was competing against them, and they had to go beg him during the last election?

Topmaike007:
it is AD(alliance for democracy)the he Omisore and pa Bisi Akande ruled together..and moreover ignore any troll abeg

Thanks. I corrected it.

Mooh247:
Omisore now with the Progressives.... Late pa Bola Ige must be angry right now

Late Chief Bola Ige can do what whatever he likes wherever he is. No disrespect.
Omisore was part of the progressive, even, before Buhari. They started the party Alliance for Democracy (AD) together, and he was the deputy governor to Chief Bisi Akande.
If you are insinuating that he killed or conspired to kill Bola Ige, where are your evidences?
It's like me saying your father is responsible for all the ritual killing happening in your state. I am sure you would ask me to produce any evidence. Stop destroying other people's reputation in the name of politics. Remember, these people are just humans like you.

NOETHNICITY:
Why do nairaland mods allow this forum to be used for scam.

Almost every young guys walking on the street of Nigeria are scammers.

Nairaland is reflecting what's going on in the society.

Igbofam:
The terrible thing about all these companies pulling out of Russia is that their own citizens would hardly know what is going on even though they would deeply feel the heat. Their state controlled media would never tell them the truth

Imagine having over 300 major companies pulling out of your country in 2 weeks. The impact on the economy would be like a Tsunami of financial crisis which is what they are facing now.

Funny enough the worst is yet to come as more companies pull out over the next coming days and weeks.

I am sure the employer have the obligation to inform their staff why they are pulling out of the country.

People can also use VPN to access news outside the state controlled media.

I am not concerned about the fake news being peddled through this post. What baffled me is the amount of people who actually believed the nonsense.
Nigeria probably have the highest number of unintelligent young people.
They can believe anything without asking for a reliable and verifiable sources.

Revolution2022:
See how a NURTW branch chairman is giving orders to the number chief security Officer of the state.What guts.Is it not the government that owns the park?
Rubber-stamp sanwo-olu should take over the motorparks and hand it over to you to control as a ballot box snatcher.

The problem with the semi-illiterates like you is not in being unable to read but reading yet refusing to agree with whatever you read no matter how clear the message is.
The man made his case. He backed his decision with the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria as amended.
He cited the Law of Lagos state, which gave the governor the power to take over the motor parks, and he invited the Governor to take action in accordance with the law.
A reasonable man would have shown respect to, and praise the NURTW chairman for the peaceful steps he took, yet you are denigrating the governor and the road transport chairman.
Of course, you wanted to see a breakdown of law and order in Lagos, but Musiliu Akinsanya and Gov. Sanwoolu knows what is good for Lagos.
The scientists need to start studying people like you, your brain, and what special circumstances that led to the way your brains developed to the state it is now.
