This question was informed by several claims of some nefarious elements that the campaign against Tinubu candidacy is because he’s Yoruba while the support for Peter Obi by most people from Eastern Nigeria is because he’s Igbo. But is this true? Reno Omokri and most others had to call us out for rejoicing when Ekweremadu was arrested in the UK. But if you wanna argue that we rejoiced over his arrest because he criticized Peter Obi, remember he was earlier beaten in Germany and the Igbos supported the beating. Again in all of Okorocha’s travails, we have been his greatest mockers. Reason we didn’t blink an eye when EFCC broke into his home to arrest and he was trying to whip up sentiments by being dramatic online. Similarly, when OUK declared for presidency, the Igbos didn’t blink an eye nor raise a strand of their hair. Now, imagine either Okorocha or OUK emerged as APC and Osinbajo resigned from APC to contest in Labour Party like Obi is doing, who do you think most of Igbo people especially the youth will support? Search through your heart of hearts and answer that question. Lalasticlala Mynd44 13 Likes |

Person wey go pick Rochas go need psychiatrist + statue thrown on his head!  Rochas the cultist or the one that schooled in corruption. No wonder, his successors were demolishing his demonic acidic rain projects Look OP, many of these people saying otherwise knows the truth but just like zazuzeh abi na wetin him call himself, them don collect money! 15 Likes |

The Igbos will not only support Osibanjo, they will even insult Okorocha unless Okorocha is better than the person That is why people always say Igbos are not united or they don't support themselves. If you are corrupt the Igbos will abandon and de-market you. Peter Obi is tested and trusted without any corruption hanging on his neck and that is why Igbos are solidly behind him except the few corrupt Igbo politicians that knows nothing for them if Peter Obi becomes the President. Peter Obi is not power drunk. He was in APGA as a Governor and wanted to join PDP. He made sure he campaigned for APGA candidate and ensured free and fair election and handed over to APGA and then joined PDP - an opposition party. But many Governors took the mandates their parties gave them and joined another party. Tinubu did it by forming Action Congress and Okorocha also did it and others. 39 Likes 3 Shares |

This post of yours is coming from position of tribalism. Maybe you should do well by telling with results from each region who the Igbo voted for since beginning of democracy? This is just the first time igbo candidate came out for election the igbos are standing beside him not because he is from the Igbo ethnic stock but for what he is bringing to the table. If yoruba are JUST, like you are trying to portray in your write up, you will know no yoruba should be standing in this election but you guys are doing because of greed and supporting a bad market all driven by wickedness. 2 Likes 2 Shares |

We would support osinbanjo. Infact if any other igbo man was contesting today (asides moghalu). He will never have a movement behind him. We did that to even ojukwu who else won't we do that to.. we are a people who go for competence over tribe and religion. We have always voted other tribes. 14 Likes 2 Shares |

The same Osinbajo they’ve been abusing and cursing since 2015 or which one? Did you vote for him when he was the vice presidential candidate of APC in 2015 and 2019? You think we’ve forgotten the popular campaign before the primary election that if the SE can’t get it, power should remain in the north. Did you consider Osinbajo when you were pushing that agenda? Igbos actually think they can gaslight the SW into supporting Peter Obi and it’s really so amusing. In terms of capacity, competency, record of achievements and national appeal, Tinubu is still the best candidate in the race. So, why should the SW abandon Tinubu for an extremely incompetent candidate without national appeal like Peter Obi? Make it make sense please. 7 Likes 2 Shares |

THE ANSWER YOU SEEK IS ALREADY IN THE JUST CONCLUDED APC PRIMARY. I AM VERY SURE THAT OSINBAJO GOT MORE VOTES THAN ANY OTHER IGBO ASPIRANT FROM IGBOS. ROCHAS ACTUALLY HAD ZERO. NO VOTE EVEN FROM HIS OWN IGBO STATE. MIND YOU, IGBOS WILL STILL VOTE PDP DESPITE OBI IN LABOUR PARTY COME 2023. IGBOS NO DEY DISSAPPOINT WHEN IT COMES TO TREATING EACH OTHER AS OUT CAST.. 3 Likes |

Based on the little time Osibanjo was in charge, I give it to him and what is fascinating about him is that he doesn't make noise or use derogatory words on his opponents. Very intelligent man. I wish he had gone for Ogun governorship position instead of VP that made him redundant. 1 Like 1 Share |

There is one thing about Igbos when they want to vote a Man, they vote base on the right candidate. They voted in favour of Obasanjo, Yaradua, and Jonathan against Igbo presidential aspirants of then. 14 Likes 2 Shares |

"In 2003 he ran for the All Nigeria Peoples Party (ANPP) presidential ticket but lost......Try to keep up because by 2005, Okorocha had formed the Action Alliance party, with plans to vie for presidency in the 2007 elections. A few months later, by September 2007 Okorocha was back in the PDP" It is not about the party but the individual. Okorocha himself knows that overwhelming majority of igbos no send am, reason he is always striving to be visible with the core North. 7 Likes |

mycar: WHEN BUHARI CLINCHED POWER IN 2015, EVEN WITHOUT A CABINET FOR MONTHS THE REFINERIES STARTED WORKING, MANY LONG TIME ABANDONED PROJECTS STARTED COMING BACK TO LIFE, THERE WAS IMPROVEMENT IN OUR SECURITY, THERE WAS A BRIEF POSITIVE CHANGE WHEN BUHARI BECAME PRESIDENT. THE SIMPLE REASON FOR THAT BRIEF POSITIVE CHANGE WAS HIS REPUTATION AS A NO NONSENSE MAN AND THE FACT THAT PEOPLE THEMSELVES WERE WILLING TO MAKE NIGERIA WORK AT THAT INITIAL STAGE BECAUSE TOO MANY SAW HIM AS NIGERIA'S ONLY HOPE (ZERO CORRUPTION) NOT UNTIL HIS GOVERNMENT TURNED OUT TO BE ETHNOCENTRIC. FULANI GOVERNMENT THAT WAHALA YAKATA. JUDGING OSINBAJO BASED ON A VERY FEW DAYS IN OFFICE IS NO JUDGEMENT AT ALL. HE MAY END UP BEING FAR WORSE.
