Why 1999? Did Nigeria start in 1999?
Start from day 1

Back date it to 1960? Are you aware even Ojukwu campaigned for Shagari in 1982? If you need to see a tribalist, look in the mirror.

Mandate2023:
I thought obi is a billionaire....why is everybody treating him like a destitutes

The billionaire Tinubu and Atiku are still grabbing everything available on the table.

Can't you see Obi is different, will you continue to support a thief in other mock your neighbour?

I see tithe preachers same way I see Nigerian politicians

AbuAeesha:
lolz.
we are talking about politics here.
as it stands now NNPP that was created few weeks ago have better structure than LP.
politically Kwankwaso is far ahead of Obi.
2 term state gov,senator,minister,Kwankwaso have been showing interest on the apex seat since 2015.
and u expect him to be vice to Obi?
how?

How do you measure it as being better. Has the party won any election before?

Why is Kwankwaso and his team crying all over the media? It shows who really needs this merger. If NNPP is too big for a VP role, go and test your popularity at the poll and stop using Obi to gain popularity.

Very soon they will say Peter Obi insulted prophet Mohammed in 1994. They are basically looking for anything under the sun to throw at Obi

This shows it is really possible for people to be a willing slave. For a mere commissioner of gutter, this one is feeling like a senior slave. He has turned himself to an attack dog of his slave masters for crumbs.

Kwankwaso seems to be hallucinating about Obi. Why is he running all over the media crying about thos merger, even Obi has not said a word about it.

wirinet:
What dates was he living in the UK and what was he doing there that made him so rich? Was he working for a multinational company like Tinubu did? Was he doing business in the UK? What was his immigration status in the UK?

I searched for information on his educational and employment career. The information I could gleam of the internet is very sketchy. The only dated information was that he graduated from UNN with a degree in philosophy in 1984. Any other information after that was not dated. He was said to have numerous other schools in the US, UK and Switzerland, but the dates and qualifications obtained were never stated. The year he served (NYSC) were never stated.
How he made his money we were never told, we were only informed that he became chairman of Fidelity Bank in early 2000s.

There are too many holes in Peter Obi's background, particularly in his employment/business background. You guys need to fill them to expect Nigerians to support him.

Have you been living in a hole. Obi was the former Chairman of Fidelity bank and 2 other banks in Nigeria. Why not ask how he was able to become such?

Google his interview with Arise TV and you will see the answers you are looking for

When you are done, remember to also ask how Tinubu made so much money overnight except you are a hypocrite.

OgunLaakaye:


Comedy!

Campaign has not started!

And Tinubu is not targeting social media cos he knows Peter Obi will be winning on Social media.

APC is strategically linking up with real actual voters and power brokers!

I can imagine the funds APC will be putting into campaign, it will be fvcking massive and more glaring that a Tinubu is the next president.


It takes BIG powers to defeat incumbent party, and Labour party has ZERO of such!

You knew all these yet your kind were making noise about Jagaba all over the media before Obi arrived?

OkoroBufo:
Peter Obi is trying to use Sultan to score a cheap political point but if it backfires, his online bandits would turn around to blame Tinubu.

-Okoro bufo

If you were wise you would go and verify his claim rather than running around screaming like an ignorant person.

It is no longer an online noise, it's everywhere and no one can deny it any longer.

grandstar:
You act as though it's a walk in the past. I am sure part of what ASUU is demanding is extra funding and a government as fiscally undisciplined as this has no extra kobo to meet up to such financial demands.

Next, he is not of the federal executive. He probably has as much power over the FG as the fire service!

They are fiscally reckless quite alright. But as a senior member of the party, member of the federal executive council and a member of the governors forum he has so much power. At the minimum, let him make a statement in support of ASUU.

Is anyone still expecting anything good from Buhari?

Tinubu tactically failed to carry his fellow southerners along because he believes the North will crown him president. He gave them zero regard during the primaries but time will tell.

If he values education, he should advice his party to settle ASUU after all Osinbajo our VP is a Prof. The only proof of love for education is to settle ASUU and other striking education unions once and for all.

We have gone past the era of politicians eating corn on the road as show of love for the poor.

Notice how many people campaign by saying "vote APC" instead of "vote for Tinubu"?

IamWonderful:
Clout chasing, if ASUU eventually suspend their strike that means they are political tools in the hand of politicians because well meaning Nigerians according to what we heard donated money to them on berekete radio but they rejected, playing politics with Nigeria situation is quite distasteful and unacceptable.

Please tell APC to chase same clout and return the students to school.

This is how politics should be played, this is what PDP has failed to do.

Stop banking on empty and hopeless structure that has impoverished everyone of us over the years.

What was MURIC advice to police on Owo massacre, killings and abductions in the North?

Self defense is not a sin.

Golan007:
Strangely enough, these "smart" business people do not have the top 10 richest Nigerians in their fold.

Because there is what is called equitable income distribution. It's not about top ten in multitudes of the poor but even distribution of income across everyone, that's wealth.

Golan007:
According to him, the South East are good in business and are well talented but they should learn politics, “in politics they are at the bottom line.”

It's because business is for the smart while in our politics, the dunce rule the smart

Let him remain with his NNPP, it might even be a good news for Obi.

On what basis is he insisting, zoning or competence? He has never won election with his new party so he can't claim to have a better structure than Obi.

I don't even trust him that much, he might sell out to Atiku on the election eve.

Atiku went against zoning, went against his own committee's recommendations.

Can he ever be trusted?

They have attribute all the past efforts of the FG in Lagos since before independence to him including the spectacular performances of Fashola and Ambode.

That's thievery at a new level.

My current job contract has that condition, it should't stop you from taking the offer if it makes sense after-all no consequence was disclosed.

However, note that if you breach it and your new company writes them for reference, they might write a poor feedback.

You have not found them in 7years but will find them in the remaining 10months

Moh247:
Get more education

Lagos State was never the FCT . Old Lagos Island ( Marina and Lagos Island, VGC) was the FCT

Lagos State was under Western region from Ikeja to Badagry, to Mushin Ojota

And perhaps you don't know what Lagos State was like in 1999


Bola Ahmed Tinubu created the entire Lekki Ajah, corridor from scratch , Lagos Atlantic city, all BRT system, RRS, all Lagos Model college, almost all the newly existing health facility, Lagos independent power grid



.

Are you not ashamed to regurgitate this? Someone will wake up 30years from now to compare Ekiti to Abuja and claim Abuja was not developed by FG?

Let's not forget APC promised to build one refinery per year.

7years after Nigeria can't refine its own crude and somebody said we should reward APC with another 8years of disaster.

Jobabori:
But delegates from SE(except Eboyin state) refused to vote for their fellow Igbos during the recently conducted primaries of APC and PDP!. How would they lead and not marginalized when they can be easily bought like biscuits?.Blame igbos for their national political misfortunes not others.

You are not seeing it as building bridge that Igbo voted others right? Now same Igbo's are supporting Obi and you call it tribalism, are you daft?
