Some nigerians are online making noise but the real nigerians will decide on election day

What the article actually meant was that the system would reelect him anyway. Politics in Nigeria is basically money-driven.

I love that clause, HE MAY.....


Showing that it's still under probability and still in the hands of Nigerians to decide.


If you are doubting me and you think it's so easy:


ASK TINUBU AND APC, NOT TO WASTE THEIR MONEY GOING AROUND STATES TO SHARE MONEY AND CAMPAIGN,LET THEM STAY IN ABUJA AND DECLARE TINUBU THE WINNER NA!




🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

waywardpikin:
The question nobody seems to be asking is, what will happen if the INEC Chairman announces him as winner, regardless of who amasses the most votes. What will happen if the mandate is stolen?

Who dey announce winner dey important pass who dey count votes or the number of people that vote.

If no be for "who dey announce winner", Prof Otti would never have emerged as Governor of Abia state. This is an indisputable fact.

The question they're not asking is, what will happen if INEC announces Tinubu a distant 3rd 'positioner'.

Tinubu's seemingly cool demeanour no mean say he cannot be humbled next year. Nebuchadnezzar no do pass this one? Wetin end am

Let him enjoy his pride before the imminent fall o jare.

The tyrant's downfall would be like the Alake who dared to mess with the women of Egbaland in the 1940s.

Na here we go dey to watch am.

Haydens:
Simply put it "he'll rig his way in".

Don't put it on Nigerians, we all hate tinubu even data boys do hate him too.

You just said the fact

Point of correction, Nigerians love their president while IPOB hate him. However, Tinubu will be reelected come 2027 and power will eventually go back to the north in 2031.

Why are the real Nigerians struggling and sharing money to Nigerians?


Let them stay in Abuja and declare the results na let's check something na!


🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Not really because nobody elected him at first place

He forced himself on us by grabbing and snatching

HacheNoire:
It’s glaring them at, The Economist are not aware that it’s no longer a Trinity but Quarternity-The Father, Son, Holy Spirit and His Excellency, President Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu (GCFR).

Calling the Demigod “unpopular” is a sin and the media house should seek forgiveness and repent.

This is blasphemy, it is an unforgivable sin, it seems you wanna invite sudden de@th to your demigod, but it shall begin with you first.

I do not dislike my president. I will vote for him. There's no other competent candidate to vote for. He is best president of Nigeria. Others are washouts. God bless president Bola Ahmed Tinubu

Iwo naa ko Duro .

All these years on NL and you still dey like this?

Na wa o.

fmlala:
Obidients dislike their President not Nigeria dislike their President

Please SHUT UP with the lies!!
Nigerians HATE Bola Ahmed Tinubu!!!

Tinubu and APC only hope is ringing 2027 elections and it will backfire

Re-electing himself through heavy systemic electioneering which Wike has aluded to with impunity..

Lanretoye:

Oga, use capital letter 'N'.

'Nigerians' is a proper noun nitori oloun.

Don't they teach you these things in your APC WhatsApp groups?

Am thinking that Atiku may win the election by a slight margin. with a mass defection to ADC after. But change in policies, nope.

But they would vote him.

That is why bat ensures the hardship endures so that people can sell thier votes.

Imagine giving a hungry man #20k just to thumb print in favour of the party. At that point, only the money matters and he will tell you that rejecting the money would make no difference.

What a contradiction. We like him and that means he will go in 2027

Penguin2:
The world knows that Tinubu is unpopular but only banking on divisions to get back to power.

Bro if we Must call spade lets call spade a spade

It is obvious Nigerians dont like the Govt of the day

Yes some staunch believers will vote for Tinubu But the truth is We know Tinubu has no dignity ..He will Rigg

This mindset that Tinubu will comeback is becos we know Tinubu wont let votes decide

The Noisemakers ,aka the emergency lover of Nigeria h@te other people.

That's why no one would support their own when needed.

True Nigerians with functioning brains appreciate President Tinubu.

Reforms is butter but it's necessary.

Ezeama400:
He knows that, even his followers know.

More reason they are cheering undemocratic activities, forgetting that the table can turn at any time,and when it turns , they would be at the receiving end and Nigerians would use the internet to remind them their activities and what they supported today..

As for the claim of reelecting him is dead on arrival, because Nigerians will resist any form of madness next year.. No sane person chooses what he doesn’t like..

Gbam!!!!

The master strategist of a-looter propaganda politics knows how to play on our selfish greed and tribalistic zoning and rotation to share the national cake of corruption.

Fortunately for him, he has a sloppy POLITICIAN in Atiku whose gentle lackadaisical attitude has denied NIGERIANS of the opportunity to benefit from his better GOVERNANCE record. Can you imagine having nuisance value Dino around him, and choosing Tinubu's boy as Lagos 2023 guber candidate, to cite a few examples of his unseriousness in POLITICS.


Jagaban of Borgu's divide and ruin tactics have held Lagosians hostage to his lootocracy master plan since 1999, and he is using the same winning formula at the national level since before 2015.

aswani:
Prof Utomi, yes that President Tinubu's Pat Utomi, is in NDC with him still making sure that he is doing enough to ensure that Peter Obí is not a threat to President Tinubu.

To use a footballing parlance, he has close marked Peter Obí out of making important decisions that might threaten President Tinubu in the elections.

Peter Obi should have stayed in NDC and accepted the VP slot. He is now in a much smaller party and his Obidients are being taken for granted in NDC. Prof Utomi did his job well in 2023 and has now exceeded that already.

The “president-elect” saw in Obi's presidential bid, a good chance to reduce the winning chances of the presidential candidate of the PDP, Atiku Abubakar.

The governorship candidate of the Labour Party (LP) in Oyo State, Tawfiq Akinwale, [/b]on Wednesday [b]stated that the “President-elect” Bola Tinubu asked popular economist, Prof Pat Utomi to step down for Peter Obi in the buildup to the 2023 general elections.

Akinwale made this revelation while he appeared as a guest on a radio programme on 101.7 YES FM, Ibadan, Oyo State, while alleging that Obi received campaign funds from Utomi, whom he described as Tinubu's "son."

The LP aspirant, who spoke in Yoruba language, said "In the buildup to the 2023 elections, Obi who had purchased the nomination form of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), suddenly announced his exit from the party.

"Initially, Pat Utomi had secured the LP's presidential ticket, but when Peter Obi said he resigned from the PDP and joined the LP. Bola Tinubu, a master political strategist, quickly told Utomi, that everyone knows to be his son to step down for Obi.

"The “president-elect” saw in Obi's presidential bid, a good chance to reduce the winning chances of the presidential candidate of the PDP, Atiku Abubakar.

"What Peter Obi didn't know is much more that what he knows, he started collecting campaign funds from Utomi, while Tinubu was giving the money to Utomi.

"This went on until Obi's presidential campaign got to a stage it went beyond target. Obi was used without him knowing," Akinwale said after announcing his departure from the party.

Obi defected to the LP after resigning his membership of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and also withdrawing from the presidential race under the party.

The former governor consequently joined the race for the party’s presidential ticket, while Professor Pat Utomi, in June 2022 stepped down for him to emerge as the presidential candidate of the Labour Party, LP, unopposed in Asaba, Delta State.

Ironic statement.

I don't think an unpopular president can regain power in a supposedly democratic reelection unless through rigging.

But the truth is if there is a massive turnout against the incumbent president, even if there's rigging, it won't affect the total results too much.

Why have 27 years of Bola's tax burden reforms in Lagos failed to yield a tiny fraction of what UPN progressive governor Jakande achieved in just four years, before Buhari ironically locked him up for corruption

Splashme:
The first civilian governor of Lagos State, Alhaji Lateef Jakande, on Tuesday, said that the cancellation of the Lagos metroline project in 1985 was a major mistake and disservice to many Nigerians.

Jakande spoke in Lagos during the launch of a book which chronicled his life in politics and journalism.

The book, entitled, ‘Jakande: Leadership in Action’ is written by Dr. Bola Olaosebikan, who told the audience at the event that the All Progressives Congress presidential candidate, Maj. Gen. Muhammadu Buhari (retd.), was not responsible for the cancellation of the project.

Jakande said, “Reflecting on the metroline project, I think it is a major disservice to many Nigerians. Imagine how many people would have benefitted. It would have made life easier and changed the face of transport in Lagos. Whoever cancelled it or gave the advice towards its cancellation didn’t do right.”

The former governor asked Nigerians not to vote for unserious leaders in the coming polls, saying the elections presented Nigerians with a good opportunity that should not be squandered.

Expressing the hope that Nigeria would soon overcome its developmental challenges, Jakande said hope would be actualised faster if credible people emerged as leaders in the next dispensation.

He said, “This book comes at a very auspicious time in Nigeria’s history as we need leaders who can act. We need leaders who would not compromise the standards of good governance. God has blessed this nation the most in Africa, although we have not reached where we should be; with the right leaders, Nigeria would overcome its challenges.”

WHO SAYS 4 YEARS IN OFFICE IS NOT ENOUGH FOR MEANINGFUL ACHIEVEMENTS?

IT'S A FACT THAT 90% OF GOVERNORS IN NIGERIA SINCE 1999 WITH REVENUES AT THEIR DISPOSAL CANNOT BOAST OF A QUARTER OF THESE ACHIEVEMENTS EVEN WITHIN THEIR EIGHT YEARS IN OFFICE.

If there was no massive turnout in 2023, what has changed for there to be a massive turnout next year

Racoon:
The ranking placed Nigeria in 186th position, only after Haiti, among 187 countries of the world. Nigeria is the second country in the world with the lowest voter turnout, worse than war-ravaged Afghanistan and Libya, a new ranking by Picodi has shown.

The ranking placed Nigeria in 186th position, only after Haiti, among 187 countries of the world. Nigeria also ranked worst in Africa. Nigeria’s low voter turnout

PREMIUM TIMES had reported how Nigeria recorded a new low in voter turnout during the last general elections. With a national turnout of 29 per cent, a Premium Times analysis showed that the last election had the lowest participation rate in the country’s six decades of independence.

It further revealed that of the 93.4 million registered voters this year, 87.2 million people collected their Permanent Voters Card and the total number of actual voters on election day was only 24.9 million..The winner of the election, Bola Tinubu, had less than nine million votes, roughly 10 per cent of the total eligible voters.

Another analysis by this newspaper revealed that all the 18 candidates in Nigeria’s February elections received only 27.55 per cent of the total eligible votes.
