Despite closure of markets for Tinubu’s rally yesterday in Lagos, and the likely heavy mobilization that must have gone into the event, several empty chairs were still seen at the rally which brings to question the supposed popularity of Tinubu in his ‘home state’.
ScamHunter: Empty seats and spaces everywhere in the stadium despite compulsory closure of markets. Why were urchins pretending they're not reading the handwriting on the wall?
Why Are Urchins Pretending Tinubu's Lagos Campaign Flop Was A Success?
Tinubu will surely lose Lagos.
I’ve refrained from talking about the rally since yesterday because I thought I was the only that saw empty seats.
That’s how Abakaliki stadium was empty despite Umahi declaring public holiday.
It’s the same thing that Mr Jollof has seen which made him jump ship after he saw that Tinubu is just an unmarketable merchandise.
donphilopus: Yusuf Lasun, a former deputy speaker of the Federal House of Representatives isn't popular? You shouldn't be here discussing politics please.

Obi is getting 25% in all Southwest states.
You know why?
In Oyo alone, the Igbo population there is enough to give Obi 25% if they come out to vote. Add the youths who are not entangled to stupid tribalism of the old, and some Yoruba Christians who feel slighted by Tinubu’s Muslim Muslim ticket.
Same scenario in Ogun. The large Igbo population and the youth and the mega churches, is enough to ensure that Obi gets even above 25%.
Osun has demonstrated their hatred for Tinubu by voting against a good man in Oyetola just to rid themselves of Tinubu.
Ondo and Ekiti are predominantly Christian states where the Christians sentiment against MM ticket of Tinubu will likely drive votes to Obi.
In conclusion, while I concede that Tinubu will win all Southwest states, what you cannot doubt is that Obi will come second behind Tinubu in all the states. Only negligible number of Yoruba will vote Atiku.
So, whenever you are counting the states where Obi will get 25%, always count all 17 states of the South.
And never borrowed a dime in his 4 years; while clearing backlog of debts from Aregbesola.
His only undoing was his association with Tinubu…
Osun people desperately wanted to do away with anything concerning Tinubu that they would have voted for satan against Jesus if things came to that.
Reminds me of the Law of Power that states that “You should avoid the unlucky”.
Or you wanna say Tinubu is not unlucky?
Ize-Iyamu stood a little chance in against Obaseki Edo in the state guber elections until Tinubu made his infamous video telling Edo people to vote Ize-Iyamu. That was the day the man lost the election.
In Anambra, one of the worst mistakes Andy Uba made was to take photographs with Tinubu. That was the day he lost even second position.

SugarGirl44: Calm down with your lunatic display first na. Haba. Don’t kill yourself cos of election, even those politicians still remain cordial but you church rat who manage to sub 100naira date won’t let us rest.
If you sub 100 naira data, then sorry, not everyone is like you.
KwaraRat: The north will be tabling a demand to return to regional assembly as to what was the norm at independence prior to the Igbo coup and Igbo forced unification decree 34.
The north will be pushing for regional govts along the current geopolitical zones thereby seeing to the creation of three regions with less emphasis on a powerful centrist govt.
This will see to the creation of NW, NE, NC , SW, SS and SE regions
This system will call for true fiscal autonomy where each region handles its affairs and resources without federal meddling.
The discovery of oil in the NE and huge deposits of nickel in Kaduna as well as gold in Zamfara are reasons why the north is now canvassing for such an arrangement.
Other regions are more than happy to go along with this proposed restructuring other than the SE which has been thrown into panic as the region depends largely on federal handouts to survive and with no resources to fall back to, SE politicians are now rightly worried that such a proposal will compound the ongoing restiveness in the region. It is for this reason, the SE is demanding to be included into the SS region.
maestroferddi: Rather nobody is getting fooled by your cheap show of bravado...
Babachir's interview was very revealing....
So you are expecting us to discountenance the views of a former SGF and then take yours when you are obviously a nonentity who has probably held no position of responsibility in your entire life.
If you have traveled the north and cottoned on to the fact that the BVAS is going to be called into play, you will not be making your dumb comments...
Nonexisting1: Buhari has been flogged in line also. His only duty is to make sure there is no mago mago by his party. He will not support Obi but he will frustrate the criminal status quo in Nigeria elections. He started it with change of naira notes to kill vote buying strength of emilokan. You will see what will happen to Tinubu's thugs in February. Very soon, Buhari will rearrange police apparatus and change police commisioners in Atiku and Tinubu strongholds to reduce their influence. Watch and see how everything will unfold. My only problem in all these is what they want from Obi. I pray they all want to put their shits together as they near their graves because if not, I fear.
You know I don’t think they really want anything much from Obi except that he won’t divide Nigeria.
Apart from that, their interest is the continued corporate existence of Nigeria as a country; something Atiku’s victory might not guarantee while Tinubu’s victory will be a very bad image for Nigeria which the cabals would not want to see happen. Add his Muslim Muslim ticket which excludes the Christians from his presidency.
So, Obi offers the best option if Nigeria will continue to survive as a United entity.
onez: 2023 is getting interesting. The elits are now coalescing behind Obi. The masses started it. There is no strong opposition to Obi. Nobody speaks against Obi. There is this general resignation that Obi is the next president. I really Love what am seeing. There is no way a Fulani Muslim will hand over to Fulani Muslim. It doesn't augur well for the stability of the country. For the emilokan himself. His support base is already waning seriously. His constant gibberish is pushing away and serious supporter.
The cabals of Nigeria are behind Obi. I’m not talking of Buhari cabals o, I’m talking of the men who run Nigeria.
Make I no talk plenty but you will still see what will happen between December and January.
APC thought they could stop the swearing in but the will of God and the will of Osun people prevailed.
At least for now, even if the Tribunal sacks him, by the time Appeal Court and Supreme Court will hear the appeal and rule, the 2023 general elections shall have been done and there won’t be state structure to work for Tinubu in Osun.
Who knows? He might even lose Osun; an insult of the highest order, that a presidential candidate lost his home state.
fineboynl: Did your father build the house? If yes the house belongs to you and she has no right to send you away. Stop touching her things or money. Stay put there but spend yoir money for feeding and other things don’t use her things.
If she plans to bring a man into that house never allowed it. Destroyed the marriage and give reasons why it shouldn’t hold. Except they plan to rent house. Never allowed that in that house.
