In your mind abi? Your only game this 2027 is disenfranchising people and using agberos with security protection. It’s an open secret. When you say “we have convinced our brothers not to vote for him”, everyone knows what you actually mean, so chill.

But Tinubu will not win reelection, that’s the important thing to know

Stop consoling yourself, nobody intimidated you during the Presidential election, they only gave you a bit of home training during the gubernatorial election when una dey run una mouth after the Presidential results. Unlike you who were threatening and bullying APC supporters from voting for APC in the SE during the Presidential election. I repeat, those pulpits and religious war you used is no longer available in 2027.

I can bet an arm and a leg that Tinubu paid that Sheikh.

If you don't know how low APC can go to propel propaganda against Obi and Igbos, then you don't know politics.

This is why I advise Obi to be open to an Atiku-Obi ticket on whatever party, let's see how well they can convince a Sheik to speak against Atiku in favour of Tinubu. grin

In 2027, we shall neutralise all their propaganda antics. Insha Allah.. grin
No matter how deep you put your tongue in their derriere they wouldn't like you.

Keep dreaming sha, una go wake up.

Pakute:
Controversial Islamic cleric, Sheikh Sani Yahaya Jingir, has come under fire as many Nigerians have roundly condemned him over an inciting video where he openly said the Fulani people will never forgive the Igbo for killing First Republic politician, Sir Ahmadu Bello.


Bello was the Sardauna of Sokoto, during the 1966 coup led by Maj. Chukwuma Kaduuna Nzeogwu, which many have come to refer as the ‘Igbo Coup’.

The Jos, Plateau State-based Sheikh Jingir who is the National Chairman of the Izala Islamic Movement, stirred controversy following a sermon he made on Friday where he harshly criticized a group of Islamic scholars led by an Igbo Muslim scholar, Sheikh Sambo Rigachukwu, who hosted the 2023 presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Peter Obi, and some leaders of the opposition coalition under the African Democratic Congress (ADC).


During the meeting with Sheikh Rigachukwu, Obi was dressed in a traditional Hausa attire which apparently got Sheikh Jingir angry, leading him into making the inciting comments during his sermon.


Expressing anger and disapproval at the visit, Sheikh Jingir who spoke with anger in the video, said in Hausa language:

“If those scholars are not insane, why would you dress someone from the tribe that killed our Sardauna in Hausa garments? We will never forgive the Igbo for that. Shame on you for receiving the killer of Sardauna! How can you welcome them".

That is where you people get it wrong.
Haven't you realized that God loves Tinubu and Buhari more than your people since 2015?

From Tinubu will be decimated post 2015 to Tinubu has been decimated post 2020 to Tinubu will not get ticket peri-2022 to Tinubu will not win on 2023 to Tinubu will not be sworn in post 2023 to Tinubu will be arrested on election day to Tinubu will not last beyond Dec 2023 to now Tinubu will no be returned on 2027.....Tinubu has been living rent free in their head since 2015 and still killing their brain till today..Biafran people are poor students of their foolish political history and permutations

They have always failed in their antagonism even when they recruit fake political pastors in their hates and prophesies. (GOD BLESS APOLITICAL PASTORS)

Now let’s see if the new law will be implemented against this man. If it is not, then we can term it worthless.

Obi needs opposition like these to succeed. No opposition no success as a president

Please lets be fair & have someone translate the whole video. The other imam said anyone Muslim or Christian as long as he will fix Nigeria is welcome. And may Allah kill anyone that just want to put Nigeria to more misery as president before it actualises

The sheikh is still living in the past he needs to move on the fulanis are even the ones that are being isolated and rejected in today's nigeria look at how northerners were celebrating buhari's death yesterday in Kano of all places this sheikh should wake up and smell the coffee.

It’s just another reminder that nobody from the people who killed Ahmadu Bello, Tafawa Balewa, Ladoke Akinola and others will never ever rule Nigeria

Have you moved on from the civil war? Don’t you cry about it everyday?

scholars led by an Igbo Muslim scholar, Sheikh Sambo Rigachukwu.."
Op you're misleading people here. The name of the scholar is Sheikh YUSUF SAMBO RIGACHIKUN. With no offense, he is a full blooded Fulani man. RIGACHIKUN is the name of his town just some 7km along Kaduna-ZarianRoad.

This kind of statement coming from someone in Sheikh Jingir's position is not just disappointing — it’s dangerous. We’re talking about a country that has seen enough bloodshed from ethnic and religious conflict. For a cleric to openly say "the Fulani will never forgive the Igbo" for a political coup that happened nearly 60 years ago is nothing short of incitement.

Let’s be clear: Ahmadu Bello’s death was part of a historical military coup, not an ethnic conspiracy. Holding an entire ethnic group responsible for something done by a few individuals in uniform decades ago is completely unfair and fuels division.

And to be angry simply because Peter Obi wore Hausa attire? That’s the kind of symbolic unity Nigeria needs more of, not less. Obi dressing in Hausa clothing while visiting Muslim scholars should be seen as a gesture of respect, not a provocation.

Sheikh Jingir's comments are reckless and go against the values of peace, unity, and forgiveness that religious leaders are supposed to stand for. If Nigeria is to move forward, we need to stop preaching hate over history.

THE PAINFUL PART IS THAT THE DSS GUYS WILL LOOK AWAY FROM THIS HATE SPEECH AND INCITING STATEMENT.

I WEEP IN KALAHARI VOICE

How about the over 1mil Igbos killed in the civil war? Was Agunyi Ironsi not killed? People like this should not be allowed among sane people .
