Who's "we"? You and who?
You are pretending to support Igbo when you are actually the opposite - out to sow discord.
This election is not about Igbo vs. Yoruba Or Yoruba vs Fulani.
Stop trying to introduce tribalism and division!!
E no go work!

There is only MPO vs. Two OLD, totally corrupt, confirmed THIEVES, one of them quite sick!

We just went through 8 years of hell with an old, sick man!
This is a generational shift of an election, not about tribe!
Nation-wide Nigerian Youth are united behind MPO.
Something magical is sweeping the country!
#GenerationMPO!!!

The emphasis is on Igbo and sensible Nigerians. I must mention Igbo because Africans are tribal people irrespective of what you believe. And Igbo are politically apathetic. If Igbo do not mobilize locally and stop ignoring elections in Nigeria, Obi would go nowhere against rigging machines like Tinubu and an Atiku with a horde of almajiri voters that do not know their left from their right. Obi's support base are mostly enlightened Nigerians and I assure you that when the chips are down, education doesn't translate to votes. Otherwise, a man like Obi against thugees like Tinubu and an Atiku would have been a no contest. So permit me to say that Igbo need mobilizing for Obi at a tribal level as much as Nigerians that need a break from the decadence should do.

If you are a Nigerian and know how politics is played in the country, you should be truthful to yourself.

Their s no way OBi will be president as far as Nigeria is concerned. We have been recycling leaders since 1960, and that should tell you that power is in the midst of some circles, and only two circles we always have- incumbent and opposition.

Nigerians are funny people. They want automatic power shift which is impossible. If you want to grab power, you have encourage youths to start vying for positions, sincere and trustworthy youths I mean. We have to dominate grassroots and progress from there to senate and governorship.


You can’t just change powers overnight! This are not mere powers. They have far advanced working systems.

It’s always comedy knowing people believe Obi stands a chance. I believe most of them are not Nigerians, or not I tuned to Nigerias political terrain.

Supporting Obi is waste of vote, it’s better to align with the better devil that stands a chance.

No devil is a better one. So every sensible person should resist your attempt at being conditioned to failure. Just hear yourselves. What's the difference between Atiku and Tinubu? If you guys want the devil to rule you don't vote in Obi based on your lies to yourself that he cannot win. Who believed a black man could win US election? Obi can win if people, enough people are determined to see him win. After all, Buhari defeated Jonathan by hook or crook. Obi can change the narrative of the African psyche that blacks are inferior race that cannot govern themselves but only loot their countries dry.

Peter Obi is the only candidate that makes sense.

I stopped reading after Bible. I'm sorry... I refuse your brand of brainwashing

No worries. Just vote another terrorist.

KingKO22:
So you people were so daft and pathetic that you don't knw the religious status of Atiku before you start Atikulated since 2019 and before PDP primary ?

You now start ranting about religion bcs of Tinubu

Your wailing never start.

Let's wail in peace, since you people have started shooting us in our churches even in the south. Hope you heard that your Jihadi boys murdered over 50 Christians in the SW. So killing Christians up in the North is no longer enough. If we keep quiet for another Muslim to enter, you people may start going house to house for your terrorism. So wailing is important at this time.

ajekpaks:
Truth is the only people actually supporting the APC and PDP candidacy are the ones that have already sold their souls to the devil for stipends... they're the loudest and the are prone to deceit.

No right thinking Nigerian will tow the Tinubu line...

someone that came out korokoro to tell Nigerians that live bullets was not fired in lekki, but something that CNN had to use their advance technology to prove, tell is it not witchcraft that would make anyone support such a person?

If you read the Bible, you'd understand the spiritual implication of certain things. Many Christians are carnal so it is lost on them. Power comes from God, but a man, if willing to make enough sacrifices can get power from the devil. Hope you understand?

SARSCoV2:
If Igbo’s don’t vote APC or PDP, it only guarantees Tinubu’s victory.

Cos SE is a PDP block and if they deny PDP, it’s good for APC.

Tinubu presidency or Atiku presidency makes no sense because they're one and the same effect on Nigerians. Corruption will be in power and it won't even be the first time. So what difference does two rotten tomatoes make? What we are saying is that Ndigbo should rally around with sensible Nigerians to deliver an Obi presidency. Both politicians and people if they do that can deliver the country from the thieving class that have sucked it dry. The emphasis of every Igbo should be an Obi presidency.

Mysticwebb:
What Muslim Muslim ticket brought to Southern Kaduna will soon start happening all over the country. When it favours their agenda, they will brainwash you with capabilities over religion as if there is no capable christian. We never learn even from what is just before us.

You just made an important point. Muslims are very wily and intelligent. Nigerian Christians are presently in the conditioning stage. Soon, the conditioning will become institutionalized like Kaduna where Muslims kill and cover up the atrocities in the southern part because they hold the aces. It is similar to what the Tivs have done in Benue where the Idoma have been conditioned to believe that they can never be governors over the Tivs. The same conditioning that Nigeria is trying on the Igbos that they can never be president. The underlying force is still Islam. They're aware that an Igbo is likely a Christian and so, preemptively stopping Igbo is advancing Islam while minifying and relegating Christianity. What's stupidly amusing is that there are many Christians from other tribes supporting it. It's similar to what some in the SS are doing, backing Igbo marginalization without realizing that they cannot make progress without Igbo. When the government refuse to build ports in Warri, Calabar and Port Harcourt, is it only Igbo that suffer it? That's exactly what will happen to Christians and Christianity in Nigeria due to the irresponsibility of most Christians.

This election should be easy for Ndigbo since we presently have the most competent candidate in Pete Obi. The truth is that if Nigeria were a functional state, people who should be tried for corruption shouldn't be contesting for the highest office in the land.

Igbo believe in value and this election provides us the opportunity to help sensible Nigerians get a floundering country on it's feet. PDP versus APC contest is the ideal opportunity for Igbo to back Obi with the support he needs to win.

When you hear people say Igbo cannot be president, they do so because they're already on the ground where Nigeria placed them and they are aware that the Igbo is the only tribe that wants to escape the mediocrity that they all are used to.

If Igbo should be part of Nigeria, it must become a functional country and a functional country is possible with an Igbo like Obi. Not the other Igbos in the crooked PDP and APC. This is why no sensible Igbo man or even Nigerian should vote PDP or APC in the President poll. A vote for Tinubu or Atiku is a vote for backwardness. The same Nigerian feature that we Igbo are striving to escape.

Akponmfet:
How market sir?
I hope you're enjoying President Tinubu.

It's still too early to gloat

Muslim Buhari handing over to another Muslim Atiku/Tinubu
Muslim Tinubu considering Muslim running mate
PDP Muslim candidate
APC Muslim candidate
Top security chiefs Muslims
Top parastatal heads Muslims

In a country that didn't permit a Christian complete two terms o. Even though he did better than the Muslim who now plans handing over to another Muslim.

Tomorrow yeye church people will say Jihadists are killing them. But all this while, they've been in water with soap lather in their eyes.

One thing you can bet is that the Muslims can never take half the nonsense happening in this country. That's why even Tinubu is under pressure for a Muslim-Muslim ticket. Something no Christian can imagine in a 1000 years is a Christian-Christian ticket. Yet it was Christians that would pull down Christian leaders like Jonathan.

Make una dey dull

Peter Obi and Labour Party must also work seriously on a coalition with other parties that are tired of the thieving political leadership of PDP and APC.

A strong coalition will defeat these two parties quicker with a mass movement.

Akakanfirstclass:
In Akwa Ibom
Southern Nigeria, we don't tolerate their rubbish..
The day a fulani killed one boy here, two fulanis were burnt alive..

In Eket, they destroyed their shelter and chased them out..

The southerners are very peaceful people..
But one thing about peaceful people is that if you cross their limit, they will surely unleash hell on you..

Fulani,Hausa islams here are very humble...
You can slap them and they turn the other cheek..
Because they know if they lift a finger, the youths are ready to usher them to hell

Muslims are only peaceful when they're in minority. When their population gets up to 30-40% they start claiming majority and start their killing. Islam is a Jihadist religion. Soon Europe, US Australia and even Yorubaland will be on fire on account of growth of Islam. You cannot separate the religion from terrorism.

Tingotoe:
Actually there's no permutation under God's heaven that can make Peter Obi president in 2023. It's just not possible

At one time, no one believed a black person could become the president of the United States of America. Sensible Nigerians have been tired of the systemic failure and mediocre leadership that has become norm. They are now part of a movement...

Thanksful:
Obi is still on social media. He need to go into the street.

1. He should break the electorate into states. Each state should have coordinators and offices

2. Break it further into local government. Each local government should have coordinators and offices.

3. Break it further down into pooling units. Each pooling unit should have coordinators and offices.

4. More emphasis should be on the pooling units. Members of each pooling unit supporting the movement should know each other. From here campaign is easier. Defending their votes is easier.

5. He should visit the state offices to see they are real. And the people are real and committed to the cause.

6. Hold meeting once a week with the coordinators, from state to pooling unit at once to know their progress in terms of out reach, registration of members etc. This can be done online.

7. Registration of members should be based on voters card. Anyone without a voters card shouldn't be a member of the party.

This is enough to get him the sit.

Business is relationship.

Another good point. Do you think that his plan of mobilizing the labour unions could do that considering that those may have been compromised?

Point 10

A structure of stalwarts

PDP and APC have a headstart with stalwarts on ground. How can the Obi movement incorporate stalwarts who believe in the future and good governance. People who can stand against the brigandage and amok of PDP and APC at the grassroots?

Point 9

Use of armed gangs and security agencies for voter intimidation. How can the Obi movement counter this?

Whiteangel1234:
North Central Christians from the following state
Benue, Kogi, Kwara, Nasarawa, Niger, Plateau, and the Federal Capital Territory.

Obi don't need a politician as VP but a successful Business Mogul or professional field , Young and vibrant , he don't need any structure the Nigeria people are his structure

He needs a structure to counter rigging from the grassroots, voter buying, INEC manipulation and more. He cannot be everywhere at the same time.

Point 8

Tinubu has thugs
Atiku has almajiri
Peter Obi has educated minds

Against brute Force, education pales to I significance. How can the Obi movement counter electoral violence?

Point 7

Electoral umpire manipulation. How would the Obi movement stop PDP and APC from simply stuffing ballot boxes as is their norm?

Point 6

Inducement of voters. How will the Obi movement stop the hungry from selling their votes for 2000 naira to the crooked APC and PDP when there's hunger in the land?

Okwyjesus:
Engage 5 million volunteers across the nation that will disciple 5 voters to be Obident and also ensure he/she do everything to bring them to polling unit to vote Obi on election day and he will cruise with 15,000,000 million vote at the end of the day. Work on undecided voters majorly and the enlightened ones across the nation. Almajiri cannot decide for a B.Sc/M.Sc holder like you. No be shame be that.

People like me can deliver ten at least if am involved because Obi is easy to market. Na Tomato Jos.

This is a bright idea.

Point 5

Bribery of INEC and security agencies. APC and PDP have expertise in those.

Whiteangel1234:
North Central Christians are the most Dehumanized and Persecuted in Nigeria , Peter Obi should Pick his VP from a North Central VP


Obi Personality will find it hard to work with a figure head Vice President who is only entitled to that Position because of his religion , he can get a successful entrepreneur from the North Central states

There are competent Muslims in the North. Obi doesn't really need another economist but a good administrator that can also relate with the people and that has popularity. That former Jigawa state governor comes to mind but I think he may be tainted by corruption. It's hard seeing a clean person in PDP and APC anyway.

Frigga13:
Igbos are rep u licana ans don’t have a leader .. we don’t follow person and we hate control

Obi is not an Igbo Leader .. Igbos are just supporting him as their own..

Not like Buhari in Islamic North or Tinubu as a god in Yoruba land

Obi is the only candidate worth anything in this contest. His support is organic but they're up against organized crime called PDP and APC. So they have more than enough work to do.

Point four

Point Three

You see the way Tinubu urchins are talking rubbish here is exactly the way his thugs will try to win through violence and disruption. Considering that Obi and his supporters are the finest minds in the country at the moment. They sure have their job cut for them.
The main challenge Obi and his team will have is rigging and intimidation. How will they counter that?

Point Two

Reserved

I can think of mass mobilization and sensitization of Nigerians. If this country were in say Europe or North America, I'm sure Obi won't need to campaign so hard to win because his opponent are men of low competencies compared to him. However, this is Nigeria where fools ride on horses while princes go barefooted.

What practical suggestions should the Obi movement employ to dislodge the crooked politicians?

My suggestion is coming

HIGHESTPOPORI:
Christians will vote Peter Obi in block

Christians are not that intelligent. Didn't you witness how they backed Buhari in 2015, even though he's a known salafist? Christians practically defended him against Jonathan even though the Muslims saw the election as a religious affair. I witnessed even Christians oppose their pastors for telling them to vote Jonathan. Let's face it, if it gets down to religion, Christians are not as smart as the Muslims. That's why Christian nations are increasingly being overrun. Look at that Muric man on the SW for example, his utterances that they won't vote a Christian is an indication that the jihad in Yorubaland is entering the next phase.

What I learnt from this election is that the conspiracy against Ndigbo on one hand and Christianity on the other is real. Perhaps, Igbo being mostly Christians is part of the reason. Then the need to suppress and steal from the wealth bearing SE SS. You can see how the Muslims are tactically scheming out Christians and Christianity to advance their agenda because they know that like Igbo, the Christians can take what they cannot take. Christians call it liberalism but in the real sense it is foolishness. Imagine two Christians in charge of every national position even for a month. But we are witnessing one ethnic group, all Muslims take over the country. Soon the Christians will get sense when it's late.
Unless they rally around a neutral/Christian like Obi.

OkoroBufo:
Underrate Tinubu's sagacity and networking in the North at your own peril.. I don't have much words for the ibos, their hate and bitterness have once again reflected in their " numbers".

God bless SW and SS.
God bless the North
God bless Nigeria

-Okoro bufo

Warming up for your cry. No Afonja will near Aso Rock talk less the bullion van Baron. It's still SE/SS or Atiku should have it
