In a desperate attempt to tear down the integrity of Peter Obi, Sanwo Olu's aide made a double blunder while trying to point out someone else's perceived error.

Being blinded by inconsequential issues in an attempt to score a cheap political point is never a good look.

Nairaland moderators, please move to the front page. Thanks

Agbadorians need help. How could people be obsessed with someone who is not even holding any political post; whether elected or appointed. Madness manifests in different forms.

@Op, I think you should tag the mods

So going by gawat assertions, what would you call the flag behind Buhari, with Tinubu and Osinbajo clearly relishing the moment

I love the counter measures from the obedient camp. Them dey use craze cure madness

Egbon Gawat seems to have told his brain to "Gawat a here" because the guy reasoning no straight at all. Complete werey logic 😆

Go and concentrate on your life so that you won’t end up as a political thug

It's called the right of reply ... Hope the mods will be magnanimous to push it to frontpage to educate the so-called aide and his fellow illiterates

Daniel Bwala of APC said it and Tinubu supporters keep proving him right.

You need to be incredibly stupid to be a supporter of the coven of broom wielding witches and wizards.

Two wrongs do not make a right.
It is only the president who is allowed to use the Nigerian flag with the coat of arm on it.
Both Obi and Sanwo Olu are wrong to use the flag with a coat of arm on it.

LET ME EDUCATE YOU AND EVERYONE

WHY THE PRESIDENT USES THE FLAG WITH THE COAT OF ARM ON IT.
1. Distinction of Office (Presidential Standard)

The flag with the coat of arms is known as the Presidential Standard. It is a variation of the national flag used specifically by the President of Nigeria. The coat of arms in the center signifies that the flag represents the office of the President, not just the country in general.

This version is flown or displayed:

At the President’s official residence (e.g., Aso Rock).

On vehicles, aircraft, or podiums when the President is present.

At international or state functions involving the President.


2. National Flag vs. Presidential Flag

The national flag (green-white-green, without the coat of arms) represents Nigeria as a nation and is used by the general public, institutions, and at most official events.

The Presidential version (with the coat of arms) represents the authority of the President specifically.


This practice aligns with global norms. Many countries have a modified version of the national flag for their heads of state or military leaders (e.g., the U.S. Presidential Seal on the U.S. flag, or the UK Royal Standard for the monarch).

ARE GOVERNORS PERMITTED TO USE THAT FLAG?
No, state governors in Nigeria are not authorized to use the national flag with the coat of arms on the white stripe—that version is reserved exclusively for the President and represents the federal executive authority.

VERDICT: Buhari was right to use the flag with the coat of arm on it. Obi and Sanwo Olu were wrong to use the flag with the coat of arm on it.

Thanks.

This jargons only reflect a illogical reasoning or a limited reasoning capacity. In what context are you comparing Obi to Buhari and SanwoOlu?. For Sanwo Olu and Buhari or any serving Executives, each flag has its own representation. Obi has no executive capacity, as a private citizen, he has to address the Nigerian public with the official flag. In his private corners, he can then snap pictures with any flag he wishes.

You're wrong. Governors can even design a new coat of arms for their state if they wish, or design any flag they deem fit that promotes their states culture and visions.

Smile. You said I am wrong? Wow!!!
Go and check all the flags of the state with the states seals on them. It is never the green white green. The state will have its own flag with their own design or seal but never on the Nigerian flag. Even the pictures of Sanwo Olu showed that there were two flags behind him, one the green white green and the second the Lagos flag.

IF YOU SEE ANY GOVERNOR PUT THEIR OWN STATE SYMBOL ON THE GREEN WHITE GREEN KINDLY SEND THE THE PICTURE.

I AM PATIENTLY WAITING.

Sir, I don't have issues with Obi or Sanwo or their aids.
I am only educating Nigerian that the President's flag is the one being displayed by both Sanwo Olu and Peter Obi and it's constitutionally wrong. Both Sanwo Olu and Peter Obi were wrong. Simplito.

The flag behind SanwoOlu is one flag with an additional yellow stripe and two coats of arms.

There is nothing like presidential flag. What we have is presidential seal. Tinubu administration use the Green White green flag without the coat of arms in the middle. (At least in a few of his broadcast videos the flag has no coat of arms in it)

Buhari, Obi and even Sanwo Olu just like many other Nigerian politicians and even the people misrepresent the flag having a coat of arms in the middle of it.

I agree with you on that ground
But we should also call out the hypocrisy of Gawat who is seeing the speck in someone else's eyes while ignoring the log in his Oga's eyes simply because of corn

Sam-Olu is becoming a clown and independent meddlesome Interloper who just to correct the frosty relationship he is having with Tinubu is doing everything to be abysmal. Relegating himself to an artillery of an attack dog is not match in the cassock of his integrity. He should learn the formal way of correcting his wrong doing with his pathfinder rather than all this political gimmicks and shenanigans politics of busy body and becoming restless and a bitter soul who looks for wrongs when there is none!

nlfpmod this clearly needs your attention

Lol, it is usually said that 'concentrate on the message and not the messenger', but since the BATist had no business with the message and messenger, he concentrated on the flag , as per flag analyst he is.

Chai.
Sir, a little check on "Nigerian Presidential Flag" online would have helped you read on the symbolism of that flag.
I don't want to drag dis issue.
The Nigeria Flag which is for all Nigerian is different from the Nigerias Presidential flag which is exclusive to the president.

Make we no drag this issue please, I no get lever.

Thanks.

Are you joking? You think sey APC go move this go front page?

So this response from obi iad is not pettiness n idleness but that from Tinubu aid is ba ?!

The thing ringing in the heads of you Obi supporters need 5o be examined critically.
