Why Are “some” Yorubas Being Sentimental About Peter Obi? by Workch(op): 9:40pm On Jun 22, 2022
In 2003, Igbos voted Obasanjo massively against ojukwu. Obasanjo won southeast and even defeated Ojukwu in Anambra state. This is one example of Igbo people coming through for the Yorubas against sentiments. If Igbos were sentimental, Obasanjo wouldn’t have defeated Ojukwu in southeast.

Forget all the Mumbo jumbo, no sane person will agree that Tinubu can run this breaking country better than Obi. Unless we want to keep living in denial of glaring facts.

While not all Yorubas are like this but a good number is them cannot seem to see beyond tribalism.

Ps: I am not from southeast, if you insult me, I will fire you back.

Tribalism has eaten deep. Well there a a few intelligent ones who are not blinded by bigotry.

That's because every black man is tribalistic

However, there are a few of them who don't believe in Tinubu, the alleged drug lord.

You're not from southeast Indeed.

Peter Obi with no achievement is only better than Tinubu in your dreams.

Meanwhile, Igbos voted Obasanjo against Falae.

See Revisionism. The South East region clearly voted PDP not necessarily the Yoruba man on the ballot because they want to be stakeholders and beneficiary of the Federal Government that will be formed in the centre since PDP was the only national party then that can win a nationwide election.

Stop the dishonesty.

Let me engage you,
Tell me a single capital project in Lagos today that we can say was embarked by Tinubu?

Are you not ashamed of yourself? We can still see the legacies if his predecessors like lateef jakande, Marwa and Abraham adesanya.

There’s no project to point to expect local government touting and thuggery that it’s Tinubu’s legacy.

Tinubu didn’t even build a single flyover, Lagos was a dustbin when he was governor and become the dirtiest city in the world.

Are you cursed? Na we dey for Lagos when Tinubu was governor. He i the worst governor ever in Lagos with no single legacy project ascribed to his name.

What basis did you use to judge Peter Obi beta in competence to Bola Tinubu the man that took Lagos to the 4 largest economy in Africa, first man to offer free WAEC to all student of any tribe in Lagos, a that took Lagos IGR from 500M yearly to over a trillion today. RRS remains best security outfit in Nigeria today n many more.

illiterate, Lagos IGR will grow with or without Tinubu as long as the only functioning seaport is there.
Illiterates like you with demented brain missed economics classes when your teacher was teaching the economic relevance of seaport fo a state. Open calabar, Warri, none, port harcourt seaports, businesses willl glee from Lagos and revenue will drop.

You think you are talking to some dirty illiterate from Oshodi under bridge here?

Tinubu is a joker, he didn’t add any special value that even the stupidest person can add to Lagos

Why? afonja, hydrologic soup guzzling, brown roof dwelling, fulani almajiri slaves have no option... They will vote Obi. No worry, I mean why not. Is it not the same obi that made Anambra economy surpass lagos economy.

maybe the only new roofs in your state was built by someone from another region. Look at this dirty Ibadan boy feeling funky.

The last time I travelled from Lagos to Ibadan and back, it was like I visited a massive slum and back to Lagos. The moment I entered Lagos, I felt a relief.

No, Eko Atlantic na your papa dream.

Your Opinion which you are entitled to.

Yes igbos voted for Obj a yorubaman but NOT the man majority of yorubas wanted to represent their interest. Igbos rather ganged up with fulanis to impose Obj on us.
Most Yorubas dont see Obj presidency as a representative of their wish hence the massive support Tinubu is getting from his people
