I don’t like Tinubu but the south must complete its 8 years.

If the north is truly tired of Tinubu, let them support Peter Obi.

And if they insist that they can’t convince their people to vote Peter Obi then let Tinubu simply finish his 8 years make Obi rest.

As southerners, we need to stop letting these guys use our heads and be more politically smart and selfish.

Bros this days it's all about what will benefit us as individuals, and with tinibu there is no gaining, I rather go with a Northern if it's good for my overall good

Last thing I will support is Tinubu completing 8 years, not with these Agbadorians and tribal bigotry that has been entrenched in Nigeria’s politics, elevating tribal bigots to political leadership, trying to cause a war between Igbos and Yorubas and other tribes.

There’s no country with these people at the helm of affairs.

I’ll gladly give it to Atiku 100% if it comes to that. E be like say this whole taxation with nothing to show, and insecurity with zero action never tire you.

Where were you when SW gave Gej massive vote in 2011?
Tinubu was also part of the pressure group who made yar adua cabal to release power to Gej.
But Gej took him to court ...thank God he won.

Gej did nothing for the SW during his tenure. Mindless I was already married then, and I am not an illiterate.

Tinubu would be reelected in 2027.. God has done it.

You are wrong please, change that mindset.

To start with, Tinubu does not represent Southern Nigeria, he represents his tribe and region and he has been so bold about it.

Tinubu appointed only Yorubas into key and juicy political positions not minding other Southerners.

If Atiku/Obi is what will rescue Nigeria from Tinubu's disasterous leadership, then every well meaning Nigerian should support it.

I wish Peter Obi could emerge President and implement some major policies that will reposition Nigeria for greatness, but then we must show some empathy to people like Atiku who has invested so much resources, time, effort and energy for years to achieve his Presidential ambition and see if there is a way to reach a solid agreement to allay his own fears and carry him and his men along.

What makes us different from the hyenas and Jackals in APC should be our human empathy, human conscience and understanding even when we get the Presidency; we must implement every policy bearing other Nigerian people's plight and sufferings in mind unlike Tinubu who rules like Iranian Supreme Leader and North Korean Dictator without considering people's plight and sufferings.

We must be different from the people we criticize

Your infantile attempt at propaganda is very nauseating......your narrative of tribalism is as stale as fermented maize.

A man that made an igbo man his director of budget when he was gov of Lagos state......do you know how important and juicy minister of works is in any govt,defence isn't a major appointment according to you and the last I checked is being occupied by non Yorubas,same as budget, petroleum,agric, aviation,police affairs including foreign affairs.....how many Yorubas have your obi worked with all is time in politics.

Then he would be 'begged' with VP just to inflate una ego that he was appealed to

We are back to the beginning of 2023 where una pride no gree una accept

Obi and Atiku settled this part since 2024 before going public. Atiku can't be VP but Obi can occupy any of the two offices. So it's easy to understand who leads. Obi is playing is slow, simple and steady. Atiku is slow, simple and steady. Both will soon be fast, tough and victorious.

Utomi is showing he is progressive while Momodu as usual, and as Wike condemned him, confirms he is an 'alatenuje' psycophant seeking Atiku dollars never mind the damage a Northern Presidency will do rescinding the monumental gains made under PBAT.

The unspoken truth of Nigeria we all know is that our nation hardly develops under Northern leadership. We are in a democracy. So therefore the North cannot be denied power even if majority of Northern leaders are regressive.

What must however happen is that South must get her 8 years in a 16 year cycle and not 4 years for the North to then get 12.

We can lie to ourselves but truth any dispassionate economist, home or abroad, will reveal is that measures and reforms Tinubu has put in place will set Nigeria on the path of development that will see us begin to work and succeed more like developed nation.

They are measures and reforms no Northerner will ever put in place because they are all socialist in mentality and believe in living on government stipend, patronage, paraststal positions, subsidy etal. Never innovation, entrepreneural capacity, SME proliferation, optimal use of science and tech, diversification of the Nigerian economy away from dependence on crude etc, etc.

Kemi Adeosun, former finance Minister under Buhari, even confessed a few days ago that every Minister in Buhari's cabinet knew fuel subsidy was killing and bankrupting Nigeria yet there was nothing they could do about an issue only the President could move on. We all saw PBAT remove subsidy from day one.

Developments like fuel subsidy removal directly confirms my point. It is therefore crucial if the North will get her 8 years to regress Nigeria then South must get her 8 years too to reverse the regression and record some forms of progress and forward movement for Nigeria. That is how it should work.

We all know the Southerners mainly behind Atiku and why. I.e the lot known for politics of hate, bitterness and vindictiveness

Ultimately, once we gain regional autonomy and the Presidency is a ceremonial office, the North can be life President of Nigeria.

Till then, South must insist on her 8 years same way we know the North, even if they have to slaughter all of us to gain such, will never play with there 8 years in power or allow the South hijack it.

Southerners like Momodu seeking Fulani President only 4 years after Buhari left office are traitor to Nigeria and their own generations unborn.

Let's continue to nudge them on grin

Let me tell you a story to buttress the reason they are gaining so much speed in the wrong direction grin

--

Mr Lamba knew the bridge was unsound. Every report said it would collapse, and every friend urged him to turn back. Still, he pressed on, shoulders squared, jaw tight.

To stop now would mean admitting he had been wrong - and that felt worse than the risk ahead.

Each step became heavier, not from fear, but from pride. When the first cracks appeared beneath his feet, he told himself they were proof of courage, not warning signs. He waved away the shouts from the riverbank, convincing himself that retreat was weakness disguised as wisdom.

By the time the bridge finally gave way, Lamba understood the truth he had long avoided: strength was never in forcing the crossing, but in knowing when to stop.

As the river carried him downstream, he realized ego had not made him brave - it had only made him deaf to reason.

---

Mr Lamba in this story represents Nnamdi Kanu & Peter Obi & the obidients grin

For Kanu, the river carried him to Sokoto prison for life.

For Obi, the river carried him from party to party and then to defeat.

For the obidients, the river carried them to (fill in the gap grin

)

Tinubu till 2031.

Lol. The entire nation knows Momodu is a nauseating political jobber and rent seeker. He is exactly the sort ruining Nigeria.

His claim to fame is running around after rich people and famous socialites with a camcorder and microphone (Ovation magazine) as direct confirmation, even though cruel, Wike was completely right about Uncle Dele.

He is the sort of anti-Nigerian traitor from the South who happily queue behind Atiku, Malami and Fulani dollars even if that comes at the expense of the regression of Nigeria. His sort owes nothing to Nigeria or even his own generations unborn.

As southerners, we need to stop letting these guys use our heads and be more politically smart and selfish.

This is how every sensible Southerner should view the matter. We have to be pragmatically intelligent about choices concerning our nation and the future of our generations unborn.

For example. The North turned the forex sector of Nigeria into a glorified scam using bureau de change with political overlords who had access to foreign currency from CBN at official rate, via political connections, they would then sell at massive black market rate profit through the many thousands of Bureau de change they controlled nationwide.

What people do not know is the damage this was doing to the Nigerian economy and the concept of us trading goods and services with the world.

The likes of legitimate Nigerian international businessmen, Nigerian manufacturers who need to import materials, Nigerian importers of economically beneficial finished products, financiers, Nigerian students seeking to study abroad etc, etc, etc were denied Forex because Alhajis have collected them all.

No nation does that sort of sabotage to itself but Nigeria and I have not even talked of the damage fuel subsidy etal were doing.

For sure a Northern president, while fuel subsidy is too far gone to be reversed, may seek to reverse floating of the Naira so Northern Bureau De Change, and the stupendous billions they were making at the expense of millions of Nigerians, begin to flourish again.

This is one of many, many things I can mention that would show any wise person a Southerner must remain in power beyond 2027 so the economic liberalisation of Nigeria continues and gets the chance to reach a stage the regressive North cannot truncate to then succeed dragging us back 20 years.

Nigerians need to be wise. It is not about revenge against Yorubas and Tinubu. It should be about adults having the clarity of vision to understand the paramount issues are about our generations unborn who deserve a Nigeria that is like Singapore etal to proudly call their nation of origin.
