I will remind you of the bolded after Supreme Court ruling in November.

I might even start after PEPT ruling in late August or early September.
No court in Nigeria can remove Tinubu, you are being deceived by the noise on social media, I've bookmarked this post and I'll be here to remind you after the PEPT, you think social media is real life.

Obaseki moved to an opposition party, yet made a public spectacle of Osho and his federal might


U be real small pikin. Obaseki was Edo project in 2020. We the binis have our pride, we're not a conquest to anybody to be detated to. We voted against godfatherism. Even the federal government and many APC governors supported him. That doesn't make Obaseki more loved or popular than oshiomhole. Oshobaba has a street credibility that no politician can match in Edo state.

Obaseki has since lost that goodwill the people had for him and it showed in the last election. He betrayed everyone that helped him to power. He has destroyed the PDP in Edo state. A once vibrant party is now a shadow of itself.

Oshiomhole won in every corner of Edo north 7yrs after leaving office as governor. The votes Tinubu got in Edo, 80percent was from oshiomhole district. He's the reason Tinubu got 25perc in Edo.

I challenge Obaseki to contest for Edo South senate seat after leaving office. Dem nor born am well. He'll be flogged home and away. Na small pikin dey argue popularity between oshobaba and Obaseki. It's a no contest. Anywhere oshiomhole shows up in the streets of Edo, it's an instant carnival. If Obaseki pass nobody dey send am.

Do you know what popularity means?
Do you mind him grin
The only politician in akwa Ibom who can drag popularity with akpabio as it stands in akwa Ibom is OBA

Yeah!

Social media is not real life just like you people said there’s no polling unit online only to end up switching off IREV in order to rig against the man you tagged “social media president”.

We’ll see how things go.

After Wike show una shege for last election....each time he is mentioned your blood boils.

Well we the south south people think Wike is the political bulldozers of the region and his influence
extends beyond.

The PDP primaries proves that.....he was on his way to defeat Atiku before Tambuwal gave him a brutal back stab.

So youngman don't mix up emotions with facts on ground....I know the bitter pill Wike served you guys is still very much fresh in your memory.. grin
The south west has tinubu
And the south south has wike.
The south east well, obi I guess? grin

Someone from Osogbo in Osun State who knows nothing about South-South is here blabbing total rubbish about SS. Ozun!

I can now confirm it that you're really a kid for saying Tony Anenih was not popular.
He's actually from cross River while I'm from akwa Ibom. Idk why u guys like behaving like there are no south southerners on this forum and the only genuine ones are the ones that say things that make south Easterners happy. Once you have a different view, they calm you Yoruba or Hausa. You people are very difficult people sorry to say. And it'll be hard for the East to go far politically with such behaviour

Even at the height of Buhari's popularity in 2015,apc didn't win all the seats in the north how much more obi.if abaribe that has no project in his constituency can win,is it ouk that cannot win? Kalu has always been popular in abia north,he has the highest amount of constituency projects in se.bende is no go area.uche ogar even had to sabotage onyejeocha for his bros to win.i don't know whether Miriam or the apc guys in imo are popular but I know Charles of lp is no match for izunaso.is it now you are realizing the popularity of chinedu ogah?
Majority of those voting obi were only concerned about him not the nass candidates so you can't expect them to sweep all seats.if you check the winning margin of lp candidates,it was lower.only candidates that are very popular in their zones could withstajd the obi tsunami.obi had over 90% in each se state meaning that almost every Igbo across party lines voted for him.trying to rig on that day might result to lynching or violence.it was suicidal.if a master rigger like ikpeazu abd ugwuanyi couldn't rig with all their incumbency,ouk and all apc candidates had no chance to rig.hope could only deliver his lga.outside se,states where obi won in ss,lp had little or no nass victories except in edo.lp had one seat in CRS.the bvas prevented the rigging,therefore vote buying was the best way
Have I ever denied Chinedu Ogar’s popularity?

And I forgot Abaribe… man obviously won his seat.

Meanwhile I’m certain of Ebonyi. Dave didn’t win. Same with other APC goons.

You saying BVAS prevented rigging is like saying you don’t know what happened in Imo State.

Or would you also tell me that APC truly won all the House of Assembly seat in Imo on the day of Governorship Election?

Woke that is out of office with no job at the moment rated ahead GEJ that is working with Africa Union,Wike ahead of a seating senate President Apkabio? You don't know politics.
No you don't know politics.
How many people has Jonathan put in any position of power since leaving?
Even akpabio went to thank wike for his support after becoming sp and it even made front page. I'm an akwa Ibom man but when it comes to delivery outside their states wike has more ability than akpabio.
Save for akwa Ibom and cross River wike would win the other 4 states in the SS if there's an election between two of them unless there are new intrigues on ground. An average SS man can never pick Jonathan again or his kind to represent us. Wed rather have someone with balls like duke or odili or wike or akpabio

Emmanuel Udom is far more popular and influential in Akwa Ibom compared to Godwin Akpabio.

Furthermore Ex-Governor Ifeanyi Okowa gave Ibori the very first defeat of his political career.The APC candidate despite all the noise could not even make any headway in the Governorship elections.


Udom Emmanuel is not popular at all. Godswill Akpabio is the most loved and popular politician to emerge in Akwa Ibom State

Okowa is a green snake under a green grass, okowa is not a talkative like wike, he is not popular 1999 to 2007 he was a commisioner from SSG from 2007 to 2011, from 2011 to 2015 he was a senator, from 2015 to 2023 he was a governor, he was pick as the vice president to Atiku, he defeat ibori candidates omo agege to elect his candidate you say he is not popular..
Who the fok is okowa grin
He can snake his way through delta politics certainly not SS politics. In akwa Ibom and cross River, wike and oshiomole we know, right from the days of labour for osho Baba and wike right from when he fought ameachi for Jonathan. Okowa that most people knew in the region because he became governor cheesy

Imo case is peculiar.the gov right from time imported voters or had special voters,it is an arrangement between him and Sylvia agwu the rec.if you check again, assembly elections are usually one way like LG polls,the ruling party almost always wins.you saw how apga swept anambra.again,most obi voters relaxed after the first polls.

Back to ebonyi,umahi struggled to win narrowly while lp nkem kama won ohaozara and Gary of pdp won afikpo.cant you see that people voted obi and differed in the nass polls? Lp didn't sweep ebonyi south as you think.
Look at ebonyi north.if umahi was struggling to rig himself,does it not mean that APC candidates elsewhere we're in trouble or should lose if they depended on rigging? But nwaebonyi won his closest rival with over 20k.look at ebonyi central,onwe of apga came second and pdp came third.that means they people didn't send lp here.so where is the rigging?

Save the drama please, small pikin indeed.

No doubt Osho knows how to entertain his audience. However, the future of Edo state is no longer in the hands of carnival lovers. There's a new class of electorate, they dont judge based on speculation, they are smart and they know what they want, they are PVC holders , they have power

Despite all the charades and carnivals organized by Osho in the last presidential election, APC was still roundly beaten .

What has obi done for the poor? What has he done with his influence for people in the SE? All of you are biased. If not for sentiment and APC abysmal performance, who will vote for obi? Who is obi? What is in his state? What did he do when he was governor? Where are his legacy project? How much does his state generate monthly? How many non igbos move to his state for economic opportunities?
