Peter Obi came to implement Igbo Biafra Agenda.

I fear his government.

I am comfortable with a northern government than Peter Obi as President of Nigeria.

Many Pro Biafra Igbo group are requesting that Anioma area be merged to the south east states.

This is a disturbing regional realignment.

Obi needs to understand that to put Nigeria on the track of 'working', the present disaster at the centre must be voted out.

So, if Obi truly has the interests of Nigerians at heart, he needs to join hands with Atiku and others in the opposition so as to present a formidable force to remove bat.

Anything less will be an exercise in futility.
i love that you are thinking differently, moving forward do you have any "formidable" candidate in mind

Mine is Jonathan, not because he is the best But because he unticks every box Tinubu is banking to get re elected

No it's not. The SE project him as the best thing that has ever happened in the Nigerian political space, while the rest of the country doesn't see it this way.
Why I said they should enjoy it alone. I am sure you wouldn't want to share your bread to someone who is unwilling to collect.
if you say the constitution does not oppose obi becoming president, why should the opinion of the SE be a problem for you?

did their opinion prevent you from making a political decision as you deem fit?

what and what comprises "the rest of the country"?

how do you know what they see or dont see?

When Nigerians have their own interests at heart, they will join hands with Obi and root out the old order, including Atiku. For Christ sake, what is wrong with Obi/ Datti ticket. You can't mix new wine in old skin and expect a better country.
Whatever combination the opposition closes, there has to be unity of purpose.

However, in the present democratic dispensation, by 2027, the South would have been in power for 18 years and the north 11 years... there is nothing wrong if a northerner gets into power in 2027 if that is what it would take to root out the present evil.

Fashola of Lagos State wouldn't even need to talk this much if he was to contest any post in the country... His work will do that for him.

Can you imagine: a while 8 years he couldn't build a school in the state he giverned yet he and his kinsmen (in their psychosis) think he's the best thing after akara to take nigeria to the promise land.
cool

Lanretoye:
Nigeria cannot with your attitude of demarketing,discrediting and disparaging the government you were a part of unless you built airports,seaports,schools and hospitals when you were in government.
Your works as governor is supposed to be speaking for you and not your mouth,till today Ambode’s works in Lagos is speaking for him and that’s why even after his removal he hasnt come online to be seeking vvalidation

If Tinubu is removed, you want to enthrone a bigger disaster like it happened in 2015?

The coalition is made up of aggrieved APC guys, PDP and Lp. If Tinubu is removed, Obi needs to be installed to reser the institutions like INEC most esp, the military and police, the NNPC and the judiciary. After Obi's 4yrs, Nigeria will not go back to mediocre leadership again like it happened in Anambra
For many reasons, obi cannot defeat bat. That is the simple truth and reality.

If it was ok for apc to support a disaster in 2015, then let the opposition bring another disaster that will kick out the present evil.

When Nigerians start voting different parties back to back due to non-performance, the political class will sit up.

What Nigeria needs is strong institutions and not strong men.

Must you be president before you help Nigeria work, see Dangote your mate.

You can only help a country with a sincere government not Tinubu

Mitsurugi:
I've noticed Nigerians detest anyone they see as having a higher moral compass than them. Thus when a man refuses to collect bribe in an office he is hated. When he reports wrongs he is detested. When he opts for good they treat him like shit. When he requests accountability, wahala. When he stands against cheating another person he is seen as one not sharp. No, we don't crave good leaders. We rever bad ones.
Nobody hate Obi but his followers are nothing to write home about, they are worst than Agbero of MC. They don't respect other people's opinion. IRE O.

APCNig:
Okay. That’s why you travel all round the world demarketing your region because you cannot demarket Nigeria with your bitterness.

You want Nigeria to work, yet you went from Church to Church saying that Christians should take back their country and went as far as calling your YES DADDY Bishop to help you start religious war.

You will never ever rule Nigeria
So what should he have done, if the things you states that he did are wrong?

Well, GEJ would have been the perfect candidate to take out bat in 2027.

But his wife has spoken and I think the voice of GEJ's wife is the voice of GEJ himself.

Right now, Nigerians just need to get themselves out of the ocean floor and float. We would still be in the ocean, but at least we won't be drowning with no hope of help as it is now.

Dangote refinery is helping Nigeria become more productive and is creating value chain and prosperity. Tinubu got some things right, coastal road, tax reform, local government autonomy, devolution of power sector... although the corruption in governance is still high, EFCC should focus in governors not youths.

So Peter Obi was not rigged our in 2023 again?? You know the truth that he came third yet your confusion is confusing that he needs joint ticket to win bat right grin

Obvious, Peter Obi is not the "grab it, run with it" type who ultimately threw Nigerians into unprecedented poverty level.

Yes!

His Excellency, Dr. Peter Gregory Obi isn't a Desperado.
He's the only politician who can change this country, at least to a significant extent.
What made you think or believe this? His track record? Or dream? Or he has done it before somewhere? I'm not getting it.
