Whoever has the track record of excellence, let him come forward. Even if it's another Igbo man or woman. There was a time years ago I honestly wanted Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala to step in , many Nigerians wanted her to, but she wasn't interested. It's not about tribal sentiments, it's just that Peter Obi's is not the man and no matter how you guys try to package him after revealing the fraud he was during his governorship tenure, it cannot work anymore for him. 99% of the same people promoting him now condemned him back then. So what changed that he's now suddenly the best person to move the nation forward?

When Reno, Fani Kayode, Buala etc were busy cricriticizing APC and Tinubu respectively but now they are in the same camp with them... So what exactly changed?

thesicilian:
Well thinking Nigerians do not believe Peter Obi is different from Tinubu and Atiku or even Buhari. If we were to do a census of obidients today, more than 90% would be Igbos, and the massive support is purely tribal/sentimental. Putting an old equipment in a new carton does not change the quality of the equipment.

So what has Igbo got to do with this?
Even if it would take an igara man to better Nigeria wont you appreciate it?

Many go price but dem no go fit pay.

Alliswell248:
U are a confirmed olodo.

Ugm and esn has finished you people.

Comparing Soyinka with Obi is like an ocean to a river

Obi is empty

Bring fact.

If cultism is what you refer as intelligence then I would gladly want to remain unintelligible.

yyba:
Mumu fraudster

How much were you defrauded?

If the dobale will make things better then he should rather dont stop rolling on the ground please.
Anything to make the country better is a welcome development.

NyamiriSlayer:
Nah everything this agulu fraudster dey react to

He didn't congratulate Tilumbu after the selection una still vex, now he shows some empathy after the great fall and una still vex again...

What do you people actually want?🤷‍♂️

As usual, Igbos are always to be blamed.

Reno again ?!

EreluRoz:
I'll always chose Atiku over that sneaky pretentious thief Onuku Peter Obi .

I like people who still play fair irrespective of their differences, that's how I am, I may not agree with someone but you'll catch me defending the person elsewhere and you'll wonder what type of person I am. Hatred doesn't penetrate my precious skin.

To those ill mannered and untrained kids that'll laugh at this and spew nonsense you should relax and wait for what advanced age has in waiting for you, it is justk a normal slip which could happen to anyone.

Advanced age? I will definitely be in my home playing with my grandkids. Nah person wey put him hand for wetin him hand no fit carry go dey fear him old age.
I wont dare climb a parade motor in my advanced age sir.

helinues:
Hahahah

Na only una know what's wrong with others, na only una also know the solutions to their problems but unfortunately, you guys are just clueless in detecting your own problems not to talk of having any solution to them.

So you are telling me you know more than myself? Na you and who dey shout Up Nepa to start with?

Fingers are not equal bro, there are reasonable NL'S doing far better in life, na Softship always.

Make una stop using una present situation to be judging others, that's is unreasonable

Oya do give away nah.
Do you think I'll beg for food even if Nigeria is turned upside down? I'm not really worried about myself but I'm so worried about others that are finding things so difficult all because of the bad leadership in place.
If you are so sure of your softness then do give away of some selected few that cant even afford a meal.

helinues:
Why should that one be your headache?

Make una no dey lump others into sadness and frustration, do it alone. Na Ajegbedos dey do that

Wish you can say all these with a smiling face but unfortunately I know deep down you are full with sadness. Your case is like someone who is eating a food picked from a wastebasket and acting as if he's enjoying just to make someone eating a freshly baked sandwich feel bad.

Adamux:
"Jonathan said the political class must lead by example and work with unity of purpose"

Obi is a member of the Political class.

and nobody has handed anything to him so he's not responsible for anything. The only person that got something with his emilokan entitlement should rather be your focus.

helinues:
I said we dey celebrate here. No dey lump me with any form of sadness. Do that alone

Not lumping you with sadness bro, I'm only admiring your courage,It's not easy to suffer and still smile at the same time.
Happy celebration to you sir, hope you are not celebrating on an empty stomach though?

Adamux:
Jonathan still doesn't have balls till date.

Just mention Obi's name and stop speaking in parables.

Obi is not the president.

helinues:
We dey celebrate here.

Let those who want to be sad today should carry on.

There shouldn't be any interfere

Suffering 'n' Smiling.

blacknp:
Please stop showcasing your ignorance, how old where you in 1999?

Wehdone mr Solomon the wise king, but do remember that your wiseness wont you buy ram at a cheaper rate neither will it make you buy other groceries at a cheaper rate too.
Una go get sense las-las.

Felabrity:
The result of Muslim Muslim ticket and voting a druglord

Hope you have all learnt your lessons?

With that ticket I thought ram should be cheaper this period.

GOFRONT:
Chaiii

This scenario fits well for Tinubu and shetty.
Hopefully, this fate awaits them nextmonth.

Btw, watch as bloggers overflog the biography of this Malawian president in the coming days

Please do not wish death on anyone,even as bad as it may be I wont ever want anyone dead. I would rather have him finish his tenure so there wont be an excuse for his failure.

SmartyPants:
Does "Tinubu built or contributed to the building of Lagos" mean Tinubu will certainly do well in all things as a president? You may not have a point there.

Those that voted Tilumbu was of the opinion that he built Lagos and that was the yardstick used in assuring others that he will definitely build Nigeria same way he 'built' Lagos. Lamido has made it clear that Tilumbu never built Lagos and I guess that has been the reason he has been failing in building Nigeria. It's like a student that bribed his way to graduation, he got a job offer and failed to deliver.

SmartyPants:
Sule lacks self awareness sha.

Building is a continuous job. Jakande built, Tinhbu built, Fashola and Ambode built, and Sanwo Olu is buikding. Why people find it hard to ackniwledge Tinubu's work in Lagos is a mystery.

His work is so evidenced now that he is building Nigeria, I like the way he has built us to be able to withstand hunger and starvation, I can now treck some kilometers just to reduce transportation costs.

Thank you Tilumbu for building us to be tough.

Instead of them to attack Lamido they would rather attack Obi, Instead of them to attack Hausa/Fulani they would rather attack Igbos and IPOB...

This country just get as e be!

No be by who pray pass, are you ready to work the talk? God wont come down to bless anyone, the simple things needed to do must to be done by us. We were once ranked the second most prayerful country but here we are with all kinds of mediocrities. There's no country ever built or developed by prayers, check out how Dubai was developed.

The day we start voting electronically would definitely mark the beginning of our good governance, I know a lot of people that wont bother standing in queue just to vote some rogues, such people will be willing to vote in more creadible candidates without anyone harassing them with guns and cutlasses.
Most Nigeria politicians wont ever subscribe to the idea of electronic voting cos that would end their hard grips on what they believe is their inheritance.

Alexis11:
Regionalism was abolished by Aguiyi Ironsi just to fulfill their usual talk that the Igbos must dominate the whole of Africa. We were doing absolutely well by region until he got there and decided to fulfill the mission of "we must dominate everyone". The same reason Azikiwe fought Awolowo for suggesting that cessation must be included in our constitution.

Regionalism is better because each region is able to manage their resources, security network, build infrastructures without waiting for the Federal Government. The FG is weaker and more economic and administrative power is given to the regions.

Excuses upon Excuses!
If it could take Tilumbu a swift action to sign in the new/old national anthem then I wonder why over the years no presidents or head of states would ever undo what ironsi DID.

You people are just so pathetic.

7upnigeria:
Lol, people that are getting killed in south Africa BUT CAN'T LEAVE are the ones that will leave Nigeria. You guys are just a group of ungrateful hypocrites. If igbos can leave all parts of Nigeria, close their shops in Alaba, computer village etc, Nigerians will start taking your Biafra serious.

Peckham... nah Yoruba full there,
Indianapolis... nah dem still full there.

I wonder when they are going to close their shops and leave another mans land to come settle down in our beautiful Lagos.

Hope it's not what I'm thinking.

Kobojunkie:
Help me understand this abeg! How can giving people $20 loan be considered a good initiative?

The Nigeria we've found ourselves in.
Everything done by those thieving politicians is regarded as a very kind and good gestures.

Money that cant buy fully grown turkey.

Incompetence competing against another incompetence.

Emu4life:
Lol!! Wetin him for do before?

3rd Position wey dey claim 1st

4th position is currently serving as the governor of Imo state.

Judgementa1:
Stale.

That was stale but Obi case is not...
hypocrisy.
