Do you see how these cursed Nigerians focus on the wrong candidates by calling good evil and evil good. There is a new credible candidate Adesina on the horizon and you are advocating for a bullion van drug trafficking and lagos treasury thiefing demon. Nigerians are responsible for their woes and deserve every single thing they get....




I can't just imagine and they seem to brazen-facedly charge their bad miserable influence on others. how preposterous!!. I'm a Yoruba man and I will never support people like Tinubu. When we have 100% far more creditable and effecient candidates Like Adeshina and Oshibanjo. I think God in heaven should not only punish our erring leaders but also some idiotic fools as citizen


Tinubu ke I dey mad

Where you a kid when Pastor Osinbajo was in court with Aere Afebabalola representing FG while they dragged legality of creating new LCDA, while Obasanjo seized Lagos State LGA allocation for months

Very soon due to sentiments and hate you might say Tinubu never developed BRT, LagBus, LagFerry, RRS , LASERMA or LASTMA


.



LCDA that he enacted in other to superintend and Lord over it all thereby creating a new set of cronies, he considered as payment or reward.


let just assume that's his legacy, what other thing about him can you bring to the table?

Rabble rousing as usual. Which platform will Adesina use? The dead PDP?

Will Atiku and the owners of PDP allow Adesins to run on their platform?

Besides, Technocrats do not always perform well when given executive authority? History is replete with this.



but atleast he is a better off candidate than Tinubu, Buhari, Atiku combined

No northerner would support obasanjo to market adesina as President who will definitely be a good President
It would be a slap on the north producing people like buhari, atiku, elrufai, tambuwa, kwankwaso etc as presidential material if adesina from the south should become Nigerian president from the south with resultant tremendous achievements

The north may support tinubu, fayose, amosun, fayemi obi, okorocha etc whom they know will only come to reenforce failure in government to the advantage of the north

But Pdp are not zoning their presidency ticket to SW..

And I doubt if Adesina is ready to join Apc...

I agree, the PDP is not picking its 2023 candidate from the SW.

I had known that OBJ will push for Adesina if APC zone Presidency to Southwest.

But

Unfortunately he most likely lose because lots factors involve to become a president in Nigeria

Am sure PDP bigbigs will even vote for Tinubu against Adesina in last minutes.

Adesina is a brilliant guy but Tinubu is a holy/evil genius in politics!

2023 will be interesting but unfortunately PDP is not ready to take over power but interested in dividing Nigeria before 2023.

(which is not possible atleast with what we see on ground)

If they(PDP/Igbos/Oduduwa secciosionists) like they bomb all INEC offices in 2023,

Another person will be president in 2023

We better start pushing for best candidates and push for REGIONAL CONTROL from 2023.

No other major tribe in Nigeria can do that only igbos

But we don't really care ...just be good abeg


But you are right.
Igbos are more concern with career and business than politics.

I don't know who is fooling you about yoruba secciosionists....

Pls how do you want to get Oduduwa before 2023
Even if you kill 90% Nigeria in 2023

There will still be Nigeria in 2023

Did south build a political party when obj became president ?

Did north build when yaradua became president

Did south south when Jonathan became president ?

Truth of the mater is there is absolutely nothing an igbo man would do to be loved by nigerians except he goes against his people even at that they won't still like him ...ask Joe igbokwe as rochas

You all fear igbo domination deep inside all of you

If they can achieve all this without politics what would they do with political power ...they already dominate market what do they want in politics ...that's the mindset of most nigerians

Yoruba fear igbo man being president would install and igbo governor of lagos

North fear igbos might revenge for biafran war


Say the truth stop asking Igbos to do what no tribe has done before

The point is not about who fears who. It's about the current political structure. You will agree with me that if a candidate is not coming from any of the main dominant parties, that candidate is just on his own.

Any aspirant from SE can come from any of the two main party, but it is not going to be automatic which is the joker the SE don't have atm. You need other region to be able to achieve that goal. And on which platform could that be possible if not currently the APC and PDP?

That is my point. Even if the entire SE rally round a single candidate, without the constitutional spread they cannot produce the President even if he polled the highest vote. That is why you see parties merging and spreading. As APC and PDP stands right now, it's a risky risk for them.

They may technically announce zoning, but that spurious intent will be robbed during primaries by the party officials. And very definitely by other party at the general election.....This is why the SE is such a risky zone to bank on for now.

The saving grace would be if both APC and PDP present an Igbo candidate for President which would mean Nigerians are sandwiched between two Igbo man. Exactly what happened when we had no choice than to pick either Olu Falae or OBJ.

But if you leave Nigerians the open ended choice with this CURRENT POLITICAL STRUCTURE, it's almost impossible for an Igbo man to get there as it would be too risky for any of leading party. Remember, no party wants to lose out.

My analysis though!

The same way we think too, Igbo is not alone in that.

Dr Mrs Ngozi Okonjo Iweala: Yes, we are in Full support. She is a technocrat, highly educated, well versed, winners of many awards and leaders of several world organisations etc, only a nonentity wouldnt want such person at the helms of affairs.

Peter Obi: No, for me. I want no politician. I dont trust them. Who will be ready to compromise with enemies of Democracy and the people. But he is till very much preferred to some other politicians in the east eg Chris Ngige.

Dr Akinwunmi Adesina; Yes, a young male NOI. Who wouldn't support.

My only fear is our professional politicians. People who has no job or profession beside playing politics.

Igbos are tribalistic a yet have supported every other tribe and region to be president

Tell me which igbo man has ever gotten yoruba support for the presidency.

...and how many times has a Igbo person comes out for a presidential candidate slot in any popular political party?

Your people should first solve internal rancor among your ethnic and regional group before apportioning blame on innocent people...
There is a popular saying, " Charity begins at home" let Igbo people first come out with one consensus presidential candidate in any of the popular political parties then let see how it goes...
During the Obasanjo regime, the senate president slot was given to southeastern States...Senate president was changed 4 times just because of internal bleeding, hatred, rancor, acrimony, etc, and the changes were piloted by fellow Igbo colleagues in the house...what a shame....
Clean your inside house first and let see if the 2023 general election will smile, laugh, cry or frown at you...

You just hit the nail in the head, bro.

Politics isn't ice-cake at all.

Adeshina can't handle Nigeria for even a year.

I said that before the Jonathan presidency. We all saw how it panned out. Presidency isn't about PhD.

An in-depth understanding of Nigeria's pecurialities, in terms of economy, politics, ethnicity, religion, security, national sensibility, etc, is utmostly critical.

National / political leadership is way different from leading a specialized body or bureaucracy.

this is the reason I keep saying that 2023 election is not the solution to the problem of this nation.
imagine Obj that hasn't said anything to the president over the killings and general insecurity in the nation busied himself with searching for a candidate that will be a pun in his hands as president in 2023! I keep saying it: nothing good can come out of this nation as it is presently structured.
the military came and could only damage things, PDP came trying to change the narrative but made it worse! we thought the party at the center is the issue but on changing to APC, they are confused beyond words that they have set the house ablaze with them inside!
what we have not tried in building this country is real renegotiation of our nationhood which we either face now or everything collapse. do not be deceived; the center can no longer hold.

He begged his people just for them to allow him to represent them in the senate chamber of the national assembly, but they refuse him....the pain and blood and struggle of this Biafra hero went to the grave in vain...he wasn't compensated...
They just named a few amenities after him....what you cannot sacrifice for your heroes, you are demanding it from some other regions...what a shame...
