OVIHINNO:
This epistle seems plausible. Attacking Tinubu only makes him more popular.

omenka:
Good evening.

This piece is written in response to:

1. They unrelenting attack on the person of Bola Tinubu by PDP supporters.

2. The anti-Tinubu's opinion thread that made it to the front page earlier.

I'll be as brief as possible because there's a football match to catch.

Without a doubt, most Nigerians are already looking forward to the 2023 and politicians and their strategists are already laying landmines for those they imagine would constitute the greatest stumbling block to the realization of their aspirations. To this end, PDP, even though they have yet to give the slightest hint of their flag bearer, has deployed their supporters and surrogates to initiate a relentless barrage of attacks on whom they suspect would be flying the APC's banner- Tinubu.

Nowhere is this more evident than on Nairaland.

There's a problem with this strategy and it has everything to so with human psychology.

Before the advent of the current political jousting, the Yorubas, not surprisingly, weren't as pro-Tinubu as we see them today- at least, not online. This is because they tend not to be as politically intransigent as other ethnicities in Nigeria. They couldn't care less about the intermittent jabs the man suffers, mostly from Yorubas themselves! Today, the story is totally different, no thanks to the endless attacks on his person by not only PDP supporters, but people they (Yorubas) consider OUTSIDERS.

What we are witnessing is a herd resistance to what the Yorubas consider an attack, not only on Tinubu, but on Yoruba interests. As long as the attacks aren't coming from WITHIN, the collective defence being out up for Tinubu should be expected, the staunchest of which, ironically, would come from folks who were once totally indifferent about Tinubu or whatsoever fate he suffers.

Look at it this way: when IPOB attacked Senator Ike Ekweremadu in Germany, it appeared as though most Igbos endorsed the action, with some saying Igbos are not fond of tolerating errant politicians of Igbo extraction. They applauded the perpetrators and scornfully mocked the victim. But, the moment OUTSIDERS attempted to mock and "insult" the same Ekweremadu, they were rebuffed by the same people that had mocked and insulted him!!

The counter productivity of this strategy should be obvious to PDP and her supporters by now. The more you attack and scorn Tinubu, the more Yorubas would push back, and the more the man tends to grow in popularity. I'm not sure these attacks has turned any pro-Tinubu observer to an anti-Tinubu one, but I am VERY SURE it has turned some indifferent observers into his staunch supporters.

I've no doubt in my mind we all desire a better and prosperous Nigeria, let's try and go about it the right way. Unwittingly making a hero of someone you consider a devious villain would hardly help your course. Review your strategy PDP.

God bless Nigeria.

Mudslinging has never brought any politician down in Nigeria. As a matter of fact they become more popular. In Nigerian politics either good or bad publicity often add to the electoral fortune of the person involved

Not all Yoruba people are Tinubu worshippers... even tho he’s the father of Lagos Yoruba people

Freeing him to spread lies and propaganda is very dangerous.
We must find the time to rebut them factually as much as possible, InshaAllah.

This is hardly a place for your kind if you should know. Take this gutter behavior elsewhere.

So much bullocks in a single post. Not even an electron of sense was made, let alone an atom.

I’m simply too dull for comfort. Sounding like a garage hustler.

So only Yorubas would Vote for Tinubu to become the president?

Or what of Yoruba trying hard to Market a criminal like Tinubu

Do i even use your brain at all?

e.g I myself.
omenka.

i am not a fan of tinubu.
But, Anytime those flat head decides not to removing the log of their eyes before attacking Yorubas generally (Irrespective of party or religion or personality).
We would always show them, that their head is really flat and will be melted.

What you're saying validates my point even more Mr Crayon.

The kind of attack he is under today is worlds apart from what was thrown at him in those years mentioned and the opposite is the case for how strongly Yorubas are defending him!!

Isn't that very obvious?

How many of the current (at least those we've known for a long time on politics section) pro Tinubu posters today did you see STRONGLY supporting him back then? What do you think is behind the change of attitude?

Keep attacking.
