I like Peter Obi,

Of all the contemporary Nigerian politicians, non can stand toe-to-toe with him in matters of accountability, accessibility, empathy and fiscal discipline.

The only problem is that, the complexity of the Nigerian political environment especially when dealing with Northern political interests means all those vital considerations to been a good leader in other parts of the world becomes secondary considerations.

Northern political elites don't give a hoot about any of those characteristics that will make Nigeria rise to its true potential where merit drive reward.

Bola Ahmed Tinubu's personality is still shrouded in deep mystery because he has not provided logical answers to certain doubts about his origin, education and the likes, but when it comes to the games of politics he is the match for the Northern political elites politics of entitlement.

For this Reason, I want TINUBU to continue, he is the only match to the blood sucking, demonic style politics of the most dependent region of Nigeria acting like spoilt kids.

When I look at the North, I hate their political elites the more. These people have weaponised religion to become something else.

Let them keep being in their own chains. When they are tired they will know what to do. IRAN is a typical example .

OP I put it to you that you don't know Peter-Okwute and your talking absolutely nonsense. Tinubu has been playing sycophantic and romantic nature of politics with the North just to remain relevant and not to change anything nor make any impact on the life of the people.

You see Peter Obi as a gentle man and that's correct, but you so much underestimate his capabilities in terms of taking tough decisions and stepping on toes, Peter Obi you see there has balls far more than Tinubu who only has a criminal and crooked antecedents. The more reason the North would prefer a Yoruba man for the position over an Igbo man is because they understand the difference between noise making cowards and gentle Lions.

Much ado about nothing. Who made Tinubu president with 5.6m votes? The North. Who's currently Tinubu's Vice? The North. Who will Tinubu be handing over to if he manages to win re-election? The North. Who will Tinubu be relying upon to win his re-election? The North. Who did Tinubu align with to get Jonathan, his Southern brother, out of power? The North. Don't bother about the North. They can take care of themselves. All you should be asking is "what's in it for my people?" Tinubu will not campaign in the East if he's assured of Northern support today. He didn't campaign in the Southeast in 2023. There is no possible permutation where the North loses out completely.

Like u rightly attributed, the devil we know Tinubu is better than the presumed angel Gringory Obi, the odds are stacked against him, the north will never vote for a person like Gringory Obi, end of discussion, he will never enter Aso Rock, unless as a visitor.

The truth is a very bitter pill that must be digested, to get cured of the ailment.

If the North voted Tinubu despite not knowing anything about his background but for the sole reason of aligning with Buhari to remove Jonathan, why won't the North vote Peter Obi? It's just that with the North, it's strictly politics. Nothing goes for nothing.

Some of you should really do basic research before u open your mouth sha

Obi can't handle northern elit? Lmao

Go ask Anambra people why they change his name from AdaObi to Okwute

Anambra Godfathers were the worse till they meet obi

You can't fight cabal when you are corrupt they must blackmail you

Simple u must understand the trajectory of Nigerian politics, also its history, the north will never vote out a sitting Yoruba Muslim president from the South West with 4 years left in power, to replace him with a Christian Igbo desperado wannabe president from the South East who will spend 8 years as president, it will never happen.

You all should stop deceiving yourselves & accept the reality of Nigeria’s political landscape.

2023 was the only chance Obi representing the Igbo tribe had, sorry he missed the train.

That means you don't know Peter Obi yet.

Without money, you thought Tinubu knows politics more than Obi?

Even that type of Northern politics you're talking of, Obi bad for that side. Don't allow his gentle looking confuse you.

What helped and still helping Tinubu is that he is the richest among Nigerian politicians.

When it comes to politics Obi is a nonentity were Tinubu is, they are not even on the same level.

Anambra state is not Lagos State, even in Anambra state Obi is a nonentity never controlled anything, hence immediately he finished his 2 terms as governor, he left the Apga party & left the state.

The Apga party has been in power in Anambra state since his departure without his help.

After the 2027 general election, he will retire to Agulu a very bitter person.

How is his origin, educational background matter to governance?

Former Cross River state governor, Ayade is a professor, his deputy governor was also a professor. Could you tell us the magic Ayade did in Cross Rivers state for 8 years as a professor

Oga keep Shut and stop noise.

Obi contested with small party LP and shaked the Nation

Why didn't Tinubu contest with ACN all these while let's know howmany states he would have won.

Someone contested with incubent party, still spent a lot of money and you're here bragging.

We all observed how APC governors/politicians and INEC combined and wrote results for him.

That's not politics. If you can't convince and whine people (common masses) to gain huge supporters nationwide, then you're not politician.

Among the masses, howmany people can fight for tinubu? And you call him real politician.

I remember back then, when Tinubu & crew registered the small APC in 2013, Late Doyin Okupe (R.I.P.) of the great Peoples Democratic Party, spokesman for the president said if the APC is still in existence after 18 months we should call him a bastard.

The rest is history, they have been in power since 2015, please Gringory Obi the political nonentity should go & rest underneath the shade in Agulu, politics no be chichi for cho cho cho people.

Why didn't Tinubu fight to be the flag biarrer after the APC was formed since he is big politically and not using money as influence.

Buhari should be the one bragging of being big politically because he is not that rich but still have influence just like Obi.


Why did he wait for Buhari and North to clear way for him before contesting? Same thing he has been doing with AC/ACN, alway inviting northerners to contest in his party to clear way for him.

Because political analysts like myself & president Tinubu that understand the dynamics of Nigerian politics were aware that 2015 was the turn of the North to be president, hence President Jonathan Ebele was kicked out, & replaced with a Northerner.

Turn of North by working against incubent southern president yet to complete his tenure?

Even before 2015, why didn't he contest against Obasanjo and Jonathan on southern turn to show how relevant and strong he is politically?

Obi is a bold man, he contested and showed us his politcal skills with LP.

Because Senator Bola Tinubu is a political strategist, a visionary that waited for the right moment to strike, he contested once, & became president.

Gringory Obi may be a bold man to you, but like Niccolio Machiavelli said, the end justifies.

Tinubu is president today, & that is all that matters.

Not everyone that passed an exam is brilliant or genuis.

If someone use money and pay mecenary to Pass exam. You can't still rate he/she among the brilliant student.

Taah!, go and take several seats. You, political analyst?. Bingo!.

If Mr Obi emerges from the ADC, and that is a tough call, then he will have demonstrated not only his ability to manoeuvre and gain trust, but also his will and political influence within the northern alliance.

Now, the next time reasonable people are discussing politics, excuse yourself.

Lol. You think people don't know your history here and how you vehemently insisted Obi is distinctly unfit to lead?

Now you are his biggest cheerleader, because he seems your surest chance of Igbo Presidency, to be daily insisting he is superman and Jesus rolled into one.

You lot and lack of enduring sincerity, principles and integrity are 5 and 6.

Lol. Same Obi we know? Impossicant. More chances of seeing purple Pigs fly above Aso Rock than Obi manning up to contest Primaries against other men let alone win.

Same Obi that fled PDP to buy Labour ticket so he could avoid confrontation against Atiku, Wike, Tambuwal etal?

ITS U WHO IS BLINDED BY TRIBAL EMOTIONS... OBI IS WEAK , HE CNT MAKE DIFICULT DESCISIONS...CAN HE EVEN CONTROL D ARMY OR FIGHT BANDITS . NOT TO MENTION NORTHERN LEADERS

To the most important criteria for president of Nigeria is ability to strangle the north, what a pity.
The kind of hatred you tinubu supporters have for the north is horrible, yet you pretend to work with them just to exploit their religious sentiments.
For your information tinubu is timid and fearful towards the north, he lacks the boldness to confront the north on any issue at all.
tinubu is always tight lipped what Northern matters comes up.
PETER OBI is quinssential and compassionate leader, who is not afraid to approach any issues and resolve them with wisdom and maturity.
Nigeria needs PETER OBI and 2027 is the best opportunity.
Let's get it done, VOTE PETER OBI FOR PRESIDENT OF NIGERIA

Regarding your bolded assertion, can you proffer a logical explanation as to why you believe the north ‘will never vote for Peter Obi’ but have no problem voting for Tinubu!?

Hehehehehe

I see the marriage of the Yoruba and the Muslim core north as a marriage of convenience!….Strange bedfellows in it not for reasons of brotherly love, but for what they can get out of it! They probably can’t stand the sight of each other, but it’s a formula that’s worked well for them thus far!
