Peter Obi is needed at a time like this!
Amotolongbo:
You could have asked if the East would accept Peter Obi also

let say Nigeria was to go back to the regional system of government, do you think the west will accept Tinubu as their leader
I guess it was the east that elected him once as a senator and twice as governor of Lagos state.

so you are telling me if you have a business or a company that you will choose tinubu to run and manage it effectively for you rather than have any of the other western elite do it
Mobil oil appointed Tinubu as Treasurer. I can bet you can’t even pass the entrance level recruitment test of Mobil Nigeria. So, you think you know better than a global oil giant like Mobil?

OP the answer you seek is in the interviews of Pa Ayo Adebanjo and Olabode George. They have stated severally that Tinubu can never be the leader of the Yorubas
Peter Obi urchins always quoting irrelevant leaders who have no followers and have never won any election in their lifetime as authorities on Yoruba politics.

A Peter Obi sponsored candidate has never won election in Anambra state not to talk about south east. Why? Igbos can’t even trust their states with Peter Obi but they want the rest of the country to handover our country to him out of tribal sentiments. Not going to happen.

There has been two elections after Obiano’s first victory and Peter Obi sponsored Oseloka and Ozigbo respectively and they both lost disastrously. I ask again, why did Anambra reject Peter Obi’s candidate?

Nice question, they will never accept but want to foist him on us
"Nice question" that you ask and answer yourself?

Only a mad man or hateful IPOBians and Biafrans would deny that Tinubu, by far, is universally acclaimed the best political leader in Nigeria post 1999.

Is this even a choice? Why would Yorubas choose anyone else their regional Premier when the USA, the most powerful nation in the world by far, are siting their biggest consulate in the universe at Eko Atlantic Tinubu conceived as one of the most important climate change solution in the history of Africa?

Tinubu and his team areacvieving pan-African pioneer achievement, such as first metro intra-City rail network in West Africa and you people are talking Obi and Atiku? Seriously?

Yorubas are not daft like IPOBains who continue to back empty Obi who did nothing for the devastating erosion ravaging Anambra.

Yorubas are also not like docile and suppressed Northerners who want to vote their arrogant oppressor, who lives in Dubai and avoid giving them the basics all others have, into power to visit more elitist oppresion on them that has not changed for 60 years now.

You Obi and Atiku fans are clowns. Create an issue-based thread where either Obi or Atiku can even reach Tinubu's ankle per pivotal and universally acclaimed achievement and I will meet you on that thread.

You can't gag me!

Was Lagos, a "ghost town" in 1999 when the jagaban of lagos agberos came to town? The ONLY visible achievement of your jagaban is the empowerment of miscreants in the city.

The mumu zombiedients grin grin
Were the folks who voted him in 1992 , 1999 and 2003 aliens??
That man has been dominating SW politics since 2007.
That should tell you his level of acceptability amongst the Yoruba people .
There are different men for different season .
There was Oranmiyan
There was Bashorun Ogunmola
There was Ajayi Crowther
There was Awolowo
There was Abiola
This is the time of Tinubu and another person will emerge after him. That is life

Not even Obasanjo , a 3 time ruler of Nigeria could contend with Asiwaju in the SW.

You can hate the man but God has decided to bestow leadership of the SW on him.
That's the reason why Osinbajo was easily blown away at the convention.

Rejected with over 300K votes, what will you now say to Peter Obi that couldn't even get 3K votes upon coming to Osun to labour in vain ?


00FFT00:
I beg to disagree. It is in very recent history that Osun voters, Tinubu's own relatives, rejected his nephew in what we can see as the first fairly computed election results in Nigeria since 1993.

The rejection of Tinubus's nephew, an incumbent governor, despite personal campaign appearances and fervent appeals by the former ex-governor of Lagos state and a verified Osun native to his people, must be seen as a direct sign of his insignificant value perception in the region.

There's no sugar-coating it. The only drive behind Tinubu's candidacy today is expected corruption and tribalism. Period!

Yes I will choose Tinubu. Let’s use Lagos as a case study for a company.

—He increased Lagos state internal revenue through digitization which imply that Tinubu can increase our company revenue by over 700% within 8 years.

—He turned things around by formulating a blueprint that transcends his administration and a clear path for successive administrators to follow. That will give our company the required stability to adapt to a working ideology.

—Tinubu assembled the best team of any governor in Nigeria since 1999 and they’ve excelled in different fora ever since they left power in 2007. With Tinubu, our company can be sure of assembling the right team that will catapult us to success.

—Tinubu is the state governor that brought investments running into billion $$ into Lagos. He facilitated the BRT, Eko Atlantic, and Lekki Free zone which houses the largest refinery in Africa and beyond. That is a cash cow for the future and it enable successive Lagos governors to generate taxes to run the economy. Having a bold man like that overseeing our company implies that we can expand our revenue base and secure big investment to sustain the growth of the company.

—Lastly, Tinubu is a leader who knows how to negotiate power and bring people together to achieve a common goal. For him to hold Lagos at bay judging from the fact that governors usually go against their benefactor especially for a rich state like Lagos when the governor have cash within his domain to fight against him. Having Jagaban in our company implies that he can connect people to different ideology and bond them together to achieve a common goal.

Now tell me why you think you will give your company to Peter Obi judging from his past history of governance.
Though am obidient,but I must appreciate the way you made your point without bringing in tribalism card. Kudos.

Osun state is work in progress for LP. They will need a few election cycles to become contentious in the state.

But the fact remains that a ruling party, the APC, the party of Ahmed Bola Tinubu and his nephew the incumbent governor, convincingly lost an election they otherwise would have won if BVAS did not set things right.

Let me remind you that Tinubu will lose Lagos presidential polls to LP and Peter Obi in February.

Tinubu is an indigene of Lagos and Lagos is his political base. He has never lost an election in Lagos whether directly or indirectly.

In addition, he has presented candidates that have been winning elections in all south west states and Kwara at different times since 2007. Peter Obi has not even won his local government since leaving office.

Guy abeg, go away with your Pandora failure candidate. Can’t waste my time arguing over that irrelevant candidate.

It’s not only that they are dull, it’s also because Peter Obi don’t have any recognizable track record as governor.

Had it been that he wasn’t a former governor, they would have had much to hold on by believing his fantasies. But we’ve seen him govern Anambra and we do not have any transformative thing Peter Obi built in anambra aside the usual road, give laptop to students, and etc which is normal for all governors.

That’s why Sowore still get mouth small. He wasn’t a former elected politician so he can promise he will pay 500k minimum wages and people won’t know how to gauge him coz he does not have record to measure the truth against.
Road construction a normal thing for state governors in nigeria? When was the last time you went to or passed through niger, nasarawa, kogi or abia state?

Am sorryto inform you that, I do not have a preferred candidate for the coming sham (presidential) election in 2023.

Nigeria's problem cannot be solved simply by personnel changes. Nobody ( born by a woman) can save Nigeria. Get the best brains in the world together, pick the best one of the bunch i.e Obama, multiply his IQ by a factor of 10 and then ask him or her to govern Nigeria. He will fail, fantastically!!


One Nigeria is a sham.

Re: If Nigeria Was To Go Back To Regional Government, Will The West Accept Tinubu by Superwave16320: 10:58pm On Dec 23, 2022
I agree with you total but you Igbo father will be willing to stake real money on that.

I will go one step further n make you an offer you can not resist if Peter Obi see half Tinubu's vote in Lagos you win double any amount of our bet.

So if we bet say 100K if Obi see half of tinubu's vote I will pay 200K against you 100K but if he does not you will only lose the 100K you bet. How about that.
