GoooodHardDick:
Exactly my Question!

Why can't Nigerians look beyond tribe and ethnicity and vote a competent man for once. It beats my imagination how people will see a very active and vibrant man like OBI and then decide to support an Old cargo like Tinubu and Atiku just because of tribalism, nawa oooo.

The problem with you teebos is that you are intelligent by half.

1) You are blinded by bigotry for you to know that Peter Obi is a man above 60 years and hence is also an old cargo
2) Yeebos are a minority in Nigeria and politics is a game of numbers.

Diligent1:
Because they are not accommodating, they are not united, they don't respect their elders, they have been given the position of the third citizen of the country and we know what they did.
Also, they are always angry.

This is the wicked mentality that you have about igbos but if I ask you where you have been to in Igbo land and were denied accommodation because you're a yoruba or hausa you can't say. This wickedness and evil propaganda will kill you if you don't desist from it.

you that beat all the quality how are you better than an Igbo person..?

I am not contradicting myself. You cannot see because you are blinded spiritually and may you never see and read and understand if you cannot read and understand this, Amen.

If men were GOD. And if truly I can not get your point. Well, I rebuke you. You incarnates of hates, hot temper and false teacher.

You claim to be spiritual sound, is that how spiritual sounded minded people talk?

Who actually mentored you?
Who is your spiritual father if I may ask, because you don't act spiritual sound.... You carry the scriptures up and down, yet your act is far away from the book you claim to carry.


Young man you don't showcase righteousness, righteousness showcase inside of you.
2nd Timothy 3:16 said
The Scriptures is Good breathe and useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in [/b] RIGHTEOUSNESS, so that man of GOD may be THOROUGHLY equipped for every good work.[b]

I ask again, from your statement, are you filled with [/b]GOD BREATHE?[b]

KingOfTheDamned:
You have laid a curse on yourself, your dirty children both born and unborn. Not one of them will live to 15 years... You will not see old age.. for cursing an this man so shall your burial.be a show of shame with people refusing to identify with you. You will leave this world a disgrace

Bye

Are you sure the Fulani are not the ones you're talking about?
Sharia declaration in 1999
Constant killing in the name of religion
Ongoing genocide going on everyday everywhere; remember Southern Kaduna, Benue and Plateau as hottest spots.
Add yours to the list, please.

Let me further declare my bias here; I am an Igbo man from Anambra State.

A Benin friend told me last week that I support Peter Obi because he's Igbo and from Anambra State! I was actually speechless at his prejudice!

Someone also said it's time we help the Igbos they have suffered so much in this country; I was like seriously?

I still hear some say voting for Peter Obi will be justice for the Igbos; ignorance is really really appalling!

Let me drop a few points here;

If some of the reasons alluded above is why you are supporting Peter Obi, then you are not different from the Tribal Warlords and Religious extremist!

Let me shock you further;

when I was at Abuja last year. I joined a discussion at the Hotel lobby and one Northern guy declared with uncommon arrogance; *" THE IGBOS SHALL CONTINUE TO SUFFER IN THIS COUNTRY, THEY WILL NEVER SMELL THE PRESIDENCY, THEY WILL PAY DEARLY FOR 1966...!"*

I asked him; Do you think the Igbos are suffering in this country? He thundered yes!

I told him my brother, let me help you a little bit; *" THE IGBOS WILL BE THE LAST TO SUFFER IN THIS COUNTRY!"* NO MATTER HOW BAD THIS COUNTY BECOMES THE AVERAGE IGBO BUSINESS MAN IS THE MOST INSULATED!

Everyone turned at me in shock; My Northern guy thundered; it's a lie, it's a lie! Which position do they occupy in this country?

I said let me help your ignorance a little;

Who paid for this Hotel? Your company or yourself? He said his company. I said do you know who owns the Hotel? He said no, I told him. He said then he won't lodge here again. I said my brother from TRANSCORP Hotels Owned by Tony Onyemaechi Elumelu to Bolingo to Chelsea, To Top Rank, To Rockview, to almost 95% of Hotels in Abuja here is owned by the same people you said are suffering!

I told him if you car is bad where do you buy your parts from?

If you are buying books, stationeries, school bags, etc who sells them at the market?

If you want to build where do you buy your building materials from?

I told him, I could go on and on.

I told him even in Port Harcourt, even in Lagos, almost every nook and cranny of this country; *"THE CHANCES THAT YOU WILL SPEND 90% OF YOUR INCOME ON AN IGBO MAN IS AS REAL AS TODAY!"*

Every where became silent! Let me explain why the Igbo man suffering is just a mirage;

The Government makes policy to increase import tariffs; Igbo man goes out import the goods, pays the tariffs and custom duties, afterwards he factors it into the cost of materials. You go to him to buy at the new price. He makes his Normal profit. *"AT THE END THE NEW TARIFF IS PAID BY WHO?* Everyone was shocked!

I told them no matter what Government does it can never affect the average businessman; The average businessman will always make his profit and shift the burden to the purchasers!

The only tribe in this country that have secured their Economy almost 100% is the Igbos. It's only in Igboland where Business and Property ownership is almost 98% owned by them! After they secured their homeland, they also arrive in your domain and in some instances control 50-80% of the entire commercial activities and sometimes upto 15-25% property ownership apart from Abuja they own about 70-75%. *"And you said they are suffering?"*

After about 40minutes of my indepth lecture, my Northern guy became silenced and confused. He suddenly realized that what his political leaders are telling him that we are suffering the igbos is actually boomeranging on them!

To be sincere, 2023 shouldn't be about Justice for the Igbos or it's the turn of the Igbos! How is Katsina after PMB? Go and ask! How did OBJ rule transform the West? Many Southwesterners insist to date that OBJ was never their choice! How did 6-years of Goodluck Jonathan transform BAYELSA?

If Peter Obi campaign goes tribal, I can assure you many people will abandon his campaign including myself!

Peter Obi should be treated on his merit and be given opportunity to rescue this country!

I laughed the other day when Asiwaju declared that he needs well meaning Nigerians to join him and rescue this country! *RESCUE? LIKE SERIOUSLY? FROM WHO?!*

Tales by moonlight. these are just tales you lie to tell yourselves and believe.
You own the country and you people are so bitter and hateful about the presidency.
You control everything but how many Igbos are in the top richest Nigerians.
One housa man will buy the whole of you

43Ronin:
The church should unite against the popular antichrist- Islam! It's clear there is an islamic agenda, if not while will a Muslim president replace another Muslim president? Can the Christians do it peacefully? Courage is one of the fruits of the spirit not cowardice. All the major Christian GOs should direct their congregants to vote a Christian like some with balls are already doing. Christians are more than Muslims in this country and a majority of them are igbo. That's why they keep attacking Catholic church cos they don't understand how 99.5% of igbos will be Christian

Religion divide people. All imported foreign religions should be banned. Religion and politics don't mix.

Please loud am well well , pastor.

Sometimes as a Christian I wonder why some so call man of God turn themselves to God of man the beauty of democracy is when you are able to lobby , convince , form alliance and win election. It’s called election not selection , Power is not given, power is taken”, “we have to push back” against the resistance to change “because people do not like power being taken”.. that’s the logic

Igbo vote pdp stop all this lies, blame pdp for not giving Igbo the president ticket not apc

Medphy:
Don't mind them, When Igbo people overwhelmingly voted for President Obasanjo, a Yoruba man, problem no dey o.

Before then, Igbo people supported Obasanjo against Alex Ekwueme in the primaries, nobody complain o.

We gave President Yar'Adua, a Northerner, majority votes in the south east even against our own Ojukwu who was on the ballot, problem no dey o.

President Goodluck Jonathan wasn't an Igbo man, he wasn't from the east, Igbo votes for him in the East were undeniable.

Last elections, Atiku, a Northerner, swept the votes in the south east, even the SS votes weren't that decisive.

After all those years of ignoring their own tribesmen on the ballot, even the legendary Odumegwu Ojukwu, Igbo people finally saw Peter Obi and checked him out and said "ha, this one is good enough"

That's when suddenly they are being accused of tribalism. Suddenly it is now "those people have agenda".

But when we were ignoring our own back to back, agenda no dey, shey?

Lmao. This tribalism and bigotry blackmail no go work.

We die hia! Peter Obi to the end!



But now they are uniting around obi, you say it’s an ethnic agenda

WHY IGBO CANNOT BE PRESIDENT

1.THEIR POLITICIANS CANNOT COMPETE WITH OTHER POLITICIANS FROM EACH POLITICAL ZONES.

2. THEY DON'T BUILD BRIDGES ACROSS THE NATION.

3. THEY BELIEVE WITHOUT HAUSA AND FULANI'S SUPPORT THEY'RE NOTHING IN TERMS OF POLITICS REASON WHY MANY OF THEIR POLITICIANS DO STEPS DOWN FOR NORTHERNERS IN EVERY ELECTION.

4. THEY'RE STILL LEARNING NIGERIAN POLITICS FROM THE YORUBAS

5. POLITICS IS NOT IN THEIR CULTURE

I have highlighted the main reason in bold. Ndigbo has to learn how to build alliances. Politics is a game of addition and compromises. Being number two on a ticket is better than not being invited to the party at all. Someone you agree with 70% of the time is your friend, not an enemy.

Righthussle:
You be idiot.

Animal.

HOW MANY OF YOU HAVE EVER VOTED FOR AN IGBO PERSON IN AN ELECTION I WILL WAIT! IGBO HATE KEE U DIA.

Unfortunately abi fortunately....that Hausaman is not you and can't be you....you need to understand beyond this and know that these political elites don't give a damn about u

Ficient:
You dey fear to mention their names. Daddy Oyedepo and Daddy Adeboye to start with. When the righteous rule the people rejoice, enough of wickedness.

Exactly.

dgr8truth:
Peter Obi ticks all the boxes.

If you are for fairness and equity, then it's Peter Obi.
If you are for brilliance, then it's Peter Obi
If you are persuaded by quality experience, then it's Peter Obi, tested and trusted.
If you are for a non controversial candidate with solid background, then it's Peter Obi.
If you are for hope, then surely it's Peter Obi.

Atiku is good, Tinubu is better, but Peter Obi is the best for the future of this country.

God bless you

May Amadioha pause your mouth there.

LoL... Y e d pain you? Well been OBIdent to a spiritual father's is also been OBIdent to your maker....


2nd Kings 2:12
Elisha saw it and cried out, “My father, my father, the chariots of Israel and its horsemen!” And he saw Elijah no more. Then he took hold of his own clothes and tore them in two pieces.


Elisha saw Elijah like a Father, he remained humbled to him.

Am surprised on how ignorantly you sounded, because if you can't be OBIdent to your earthly father's and spiritual leaders, how will you be Obident to GOD Almighty


Should I also used Samuel as an example for you?

is con man enenche elijah Is he d mouth piesc of God?? Despite Jesus vo.ing to earth & teaching?? Did Jesus dabble into politics of his day?? Igboes shall fall so woefully at attempts to near d presidency of Nigeria

*The issue of Religious Bigotry did not start from the North* . Let's go back to 1962, when a Northern Muslim, Abubakar Tafawa Balewa registered Nigeria as a member of the World Council of Churches and International Bible Society in 1963, no complain from the Muslim North. Saturday was a working day in Nigeria until 1973, Gowon, a Christian minority from the North declared it a work free day, to enable the Seventh Day Adventist Church to worship, no complain from the Muslim North.
In February 1979, Olusegun Obasanjo denied Ahmed Deedat, an Islamic Preacher, entry into Nigeria, no complain from the Muslim North.
In 1982 pope John Paul II was welcomed to Nigeria by a Muslim, Alhaji Shehu Shagari. Reinhart Bonke, a Christian Crusader, had a free enterance to Nigeria at will, no complain. Abacha welcomed Pope John Paul and established Papal Square along Kubwa express way, no complain from Muslims.
But in 1986 when Babangida registered Nigeria as a member of the Organization of Islamic Conference (OIC) there was a riot in Lagos, Portharcout, Enugu, orchestrated and organised by CAN.
Pls who are the Religious Bigots?
Just recently, the Nigeria Supreme Council for Islamic Affairs distanced itself from all kinds of politics, but what about CAN? In 2013, a Private Jet belonging to the CAN President was intercepted in South Africa loaded with foreign currency, imagine it belonged to the Sultan?
So, let's ask ourselves who are the Religious Bigots?

You're just making noise.
Nothing to point out here.

No wonder Olusegun Obasonjo was picked from prison to become Nigeria President.

Yoruba and brag are like 5&6

SaintLucia:
Igbo man doesn't know how to play politics.

Igbo man doesn't know what he want in the Nigeria project.

Igbo man is in a dilemma whether to chose Biafra or Nigeria.

Igbo man preferred to hold Jagaban responsible for his badluck and lack of progress in life instead of Ikpeazu, Obi Pandora, Abaribe, Ekweremadu and Cownu.

And finally God has abandoned and refused to treat the Igbo man file until he decide on what he want in Nigeria.

I wish the Igbo man what he wish for Nigeria.

I have a message for you '"Ecclesiastes 9:5-6 says

5"For the living know that they will die, but the dead know nothing; they have no further reward, and even their name is forgotten.
6 Their love, their hate and their jealousy have long since vanished, never again will they have a part in anything that happens under the sun"

So what is your profit in hating other people? Revenge? Does It make you feel better than them? Does it gives you the satisfaction that you are hitting back at them? I really dont understand the hatred btw The Yorubas and the Igbos online only.

We shall all pass through this world someday and all these hatred and prejudices we have toward one another person shall disappear like the breeze and never to be remembered. What do you now gain from hating another person or ethnic group?. I am not from the SE but I are really sick and tired of this e-war that never end. This hatred btw the Igbos & Yoruba's does not even exist in reality ,so why this hatred online?
Vote for your Jagaban and let others support and vote for their own candidate without any malice.

Anaerobi:

Zeezenho:
Oga insult can't kill you . nepotism, trabalisim, incompetence,tuggry, corruption, terrorism, hate, poverty and so many other things tinubu APC and atikus PDP offers will kill you.so wake up and be wise if you love this country and the future of your next generation vote wise.

Insults can't kill you you said? This is the most ignorant thing I've ever read.

Go ask about Rwanda genocide.

Some of the most violent man made catastrophies on recorded history have their roots from "insults".

So, let's ask ourselves who are the Religious Bigots?

You should have added the question: which of the adherents of the two major religions have been killing and lynching the other since time immemorial?
Has there been any bloody and violent religious crises and chaos instigated and started by Christians against the Muslims at any time in Nigeria?
So, if Muslims are always ever the ones killing, burning and lynching Christians, there you have the answer to your question about who are the religious bigots.
All over the world, Islam has earned the title of being a religion of terrorism, extremism and bigotry.
Good day.
Shalom.

What the man of God mean in his statement on why can't Igbo man become a president is very deeper than what he actually said.
He didn't want to say 'why can't Nigeria present a christian president this time around'.
A region that you mean is being marginalised but use to contest for the No 1 seat position each every four-four years....what is marginalise here? If they play their politics well they will get it. The political languages they understand are tribalism, hatred, bitter and lies.
Just look at all those trash they threw to Buhari...he's dead, he's Jubrin, Nigerian is a zoo country.
I wonder how people that are claiming they are Biafra suddenly turned to be Nigerians.
Nigeria is not a zoo nation again?
Has Nnamdi KANU agenda about biafra perished like that?
I can bet it with anybody here that Biafra agitation will surface again immediately after the winner(Jagaban)of 2023 election is declare.

deeva2:
Bankole was younger than obi when he was the speaker.. Go and read abt him

Evans the kidnappers and Chidinma the murderer are way younger than obi.

Dnt base ur argument old men ruling the country.

If i may ask, did u vote Sowore or mogahlu who are younger than obi during last election? No

I repeat, you are still a child who knows nothing about politics.

Because Nigeria cannot move on from 1966 to 1971, the only country still haunted by civil war ghosts.

America has moved on from its civil war, even China that has experienced more than a thousand civil wars since antiquity is forging ahead united.

And if we ask, is it a black thing?, consider Rwanda that had a globally renowned bloodbath in our life time is leagues ahead of Nigeria in peace, progress and stability.

Please ask the owners of Nigeria why the country has ended with 'dual citizenship', divided between those who have and those who want. Those who give and those who beg.
