Tribalism can blur rational judgment by making people prioritize ethnic loyalty over facts and critical thinking. In Nigeria, this appears when individuals—Yoruba, Igbo, Hausa, and others—support political leaders or viewpoints mainly because they share the same tribe.

This emotional attachment often causes people to overlook competence, ignore evidence, or dismiss better alternatives.

The result is decision-making driven by identity rather than reason. The problem isn’t about any group lacking intelligence; it’s about how strong tribal ties can distort clear thinking and lead to choices that don’t truly serve the community or the country.

You are hearing the bitter truth. If insecurity can be like this under president Tinubu, Peter Obi or Atiku could be disastrous. So no need of risking them

You people are the most hypocritical people I ever come across.

During GEJ, what did you people say? What did you do? Did that stop you from supporting him?

Everyone can play the game

They are simple facing Nigeria problem.😂🤣🤣

That's how they lay cuus on their own heads with their own mouths...

So how are you different from them? Both you and them are the reason Nigerian politicians will never take the citizens seriously.
I voted Tinubu too but he's just as useless and incompetent as Jonathan.

Focus on and monitor P.O, nnamdi Kanu.....
He yen yen yen must not bla bla bla, be president

What has Tilumbu done about the insecurities? Do you think every other aspirants would have folded their hands in akimbo too? The fact that someone chooses to be stupid doesn't mean everyone else would be stupid nah.

When Peter obi was getting 90% of total vote cast in each state of South East during the last general election you will know what is called tribalism. No other contents could score that in their respective region

.. Who told you that,you don't know anything about Nigeria.. Nothing can be done.. The insecurity can be stopped when the northerners are tired of it . But right now,as billions of dollars are still moving into their bank accounts, nobody can stop it .. Don't you read what USA said,$9 billion dollars yearly not naira o going into private accounts.. Are the money going into southerners accounts,no.., but Northerners. Many analyst are saying the insecurities in the north na family matter, don't put your nose into it.

Who will bring peace to Nigeria? Is it political party? Do you think these insecurities go beyond political parties or individual politician?
Do Nigerians need to have discussion about their living together?

Peace to Nigeria is a tall order because we lived among depraved people. To the faithful in Christ Jesus, let us keep our hope in our Savior because what is happening shouldn't surprise us.

So you didn't know this when Tinubu made it look like it was Jonathan's problem and you supported him?

How are those terrorists able to move from one place to another in those communities without being detected

Yoruba people think they’re doing Nigerians 😂😂😂
They will wake in exiles and Idp’s , while Nigerians keep waxing strong and pushing .

Who no go Kwara and Ekiti this period no fit understand

Reality is that the bandits are marching non stop to Ibadan then ogun.. and Yoruba will be busy hating and cursing igbos .. till they’re all pushed into lagoon and the ocean.. God forbid!

But it is what it is ..

Another four years of tinubu will see this reality without qualms


Who sigh!

At all.

Tinubu till eternity!

Elections are held to elect good candidates. Elections are not held to distribute votes to all candidates.
Your Escobar candidate was flawed. If tribalism wouldn't allow you to see this, the rest of us saw through his shenanigans. We will not distribute votes to kleptocrats just because we want to be in your good books. Understand?

During the reign of one failure in Anambra, dozens of dead bodies were deposited in Akwuzu rivers and they have not been accounted for. Doctors went on strike leading to many unavoidable deaths. Yes many tribal jingoist still voted for the same failure in 2023. Is that not a shame? Is that stupidity or tribalism

Orsu and Orlu and parts of Anambra have been abandoned for over 3ys because of your ipob .

Face your own problem before forming bleeding heart for others.

Is it only the area of insecurity that has been disastrous under tinubu's tenure?

When the same east people gave all their votes to OBJ and GEJ,what was it?

They should also hope these terrorists have not overrun the country by then so they'll be a space to hold elections. They are already in Kwara,ekiti if we keep on folding our hands they'll get to everywhere.

Even the warrior gani adams is calling America to come and save them that terrorist has penetrated and encircled the SW.

Next year attack will be on osun, Ekiti and Oyo. Then 2027 will be ogun, Lagos. Etc. That's how it will happen. Kwara has be conquered!

Some of their "people" also drove in hordes on motorcycles in owerri and almost stabbed someone recording them, I'm sure you've seen the clip. If they overrun the south which is considered "safer" then I don't know what election does guys chest beating would be talking about. Something has to be done fast but it seems your "brother" is still treating this with kid's gloves.
