Is he lying? 🤥

Since the igbos have been dragging him for insulting Alex Otti, he is now looking for a way to buy back there love by insulting governors loyal to Tinubu. The funny thing is that they will fall for it

You people and gaslighting

Sowore has been anti-Tinubu,Anti-Atiku and Anti-OBI at thd same time since day one.
You people think the world revolves round you

I think it might be a bit of a stretch to reduce everything to ethnic or political “strategy.” From what we’ve seen over time, Sowore has consistently criticized different leaders across parties, not just one side. Sometimes it’s better to look at the message itself rather than assuming it’s about trying to win any group over.

You actually made a fair point Sowore has always positioned himself as anti-establishment. But at the same time, people are free to question his timing or motives too. In politics, both consistency and perception matter, so it’s normal for people to interpret things differently.

He would temporary be a hero to the confused people

Not any more now that he went after Peter Obí a couple of days ago. If he had said this before then on top of his Kanu protest activities, he definitely would have been their hero.

One or two Obidients might have a headache over this as they won't be sure whether to praise him, considering they berated him for saying the truth about Peter Obi, or continue to heckle him.

Consequences of playing lemming like politics without a lack of principles.

The clip of governors heaping praise on Tinubu did look stage‑managed, so Sowore’s “Shameless” jab lands for Nigerians tired of pageantry while bandits run wild.
Those agreeing with him see it as calling out a loyalty‑for‑access dynamic that sidelines real governance.
Those pushing back say public commendations are routine politics and don’t automatically mean governors aren’t working on state issues.
Either way, the buzz shows how starved people are for leaders who prioritize security and services over choreographed endorsements.

You’ve actually captured both sides of the argument well. The frustration many Nigerians feel right now is real, especially when insecurity and economic issues are still affecting daily life. So when people see public praise, it can come across as disconnected, even if that wasn’t the intention.

At the same time, like you said, political endorsements and commendations are not new they’ve always been part of governance and alliances. The real issue is whether those same leaders are also delivering results behind the scenes.

In the end, beyond the optics and the politics, what people really want is simple: visible improvement in security, economy, and basic services. If that is happening, the noise reduces. If not, every public display will naturally be questioned.

Shattap Abeg. Igbo dis, Igbo that. Why do you keep seeing giant Igbos in your nightmares?
