Go and check the history of Elections in Nigeria where a strong Igbo candidate is on the ballot, see the results from the core north and draw your conclusion. Even Jonathan that looks like a Igbo, they didn't touch him with a 100 meter poll.


By the way, we have never ass lick the north, we partner with them, they produce President, we Produced VP. We Produced the President, they produce the VP. Only Igbos work with the north and came out with nothing.

How many presidents have the SW produced? No be only Obasanjo and now Tinubu? MKO was never president as his election was annulled.
Obasanjo’s election and reelection cannot be credited to SW and North alliance because the majority of the SW rejected him. Obj won with majority votes from the SE and Northern states.

JAMO84:
If Tinubu can pull the South together, the biggest winners will be Igbo, the only path to presidency for Igbo is southern unity on election day, but they will never understand, they'd rather continue aligning with the north and when it's time for the north to replicate, they will push Igbos out and shut the door ( Like they did to Obi in PDP).


Yoruba have no problem voting anyone from any region, but Hausa will never vote anything Igbo, even if you put a gun to their heads. The highest Igbo can get from alliance with the north is VP.


Igbo should bury their hatchet and queue behind Tinubu, if Atiku can contest after Buhari's 8 years, Obi can contest and win after Tinubu's 8 years. Ass licking the north will never favor the South East.

Osibanjo, Fashola or even Ambode may be able to pull off a united South. Tinubu sadly, cannot do that.

JAMO84:
Every useless clown will just grab microphone and start talking balderdash. If Prof Akintola was raising false alarm, was VP Shettima too raising false alarm?


Muric has done more to protect the rights of Nigerian Muslims than anyone or group, even Nigerian Supreme Council for Islamic Affairs has not done half of what MURIC has done, reason why Children of fake miracles and tithe are always attacking Prof Akintola, he's the only one standing between them and their dream of eliminating values of Islam in Nigeria.

Who send MURIC message? Which Muslims rights are they protecting?

Is there bad petrol in circulation in the country?

I now cook at home. It’s cheaper and I get more value for my money coupled with the fact that I know what goes into my body.

Money wey if na dem work for am, dem no born dem well to spend it anyhow. Once they get into elective positions, they start having tastes.

Continue.

Enough of these silly talks from these party supporters.

BRT buses were burnt during ENDSARS, yes, the culprit was named to be an Igbo person, yes. Was he working in the interest of the entire Igbo tribe; that is a NO.

Igbosere high court was also razed down, Oba of Isale Eko’s palace was ransacked; who did those, some area boys that were yorubas. There were videos that showed them doing that and spoke clearly in Yoruba language. Have anyone of you claiming igbos wanted to burn down Lagos talked about these other events that were perpetrated by yorubas? No.

Orile police station was razed down, agberos were fingered to have done that (majority of the agberos in Orile are Yorubas.

Why are you lots being biased and blaming the action of one man on a whole tribe and covering up or pretending to not know that other heinous acts were equally perpetrated by some Yoruba louts during the said ENDSARS.

Stop this hypocrisy you all and let’s move on.

I have been doing business with Yoruba, Igbo, Hausa and other tribes in Lagos for years and so is many others living in this Lagos.

These crazy elements need to take time and not keep causing divides that are not existing.

For una to show una faces or real identity for forum na wahala.

Show your real identity if it sure for any of una.

Zico5:
Traditional tools are just joke in the hands of these wicked politicians. See how they are tampering with referred tool that the whole country respect so much. If Tinubu allow this one to sail through then be expecting the same thing throughout the country. Remember that all these governors are just the same and power drunk. Ooni, Oba of Benin and other southern traditional rulers are not safe.

Which revered stools brother.

The monarch themselves were made by politicians, they do the bidding of those politicians without thinking of the consequences. They can face the beat. I guess they’re all reaping what they sowed.

Why should a king appoint kingmakers? That one no suppose follow dey.

I no understand wetin concern Isiaka Akintola with Sokoto and Kano Emirates. Any northerner put noir for Ooni of ife or Alaafin matter?

These guys went ahead to pass the bill despite the uprising.

It’s almost a year since this statement was made. Nigeria is worse than he met it.

Bob the builder.

surgical:
you unwise mind did not tell you those meeting don't have more than one vote,they don't represent the north ,they've all held power, what did the North benefited,this guys are operated including you

You underestimate the level of influence and command Buhari alone has in the North. Buhari has more than 1 vote in the north. All he has to do is tell them to vote this person and many will follow. An average northerner respect and revere their leaders especially one they admire a lot.

The guy is saying rubbish with arrogance. Typical Nigerian mentality. “I’ve been in this business for years”.

Sometimes when these bloggers are arrested and maltreated they deserve it. Saying things that they cannot back up when asked to provide evidence.

Nice2023:
It's very funny how bad things have turned out.

I witnessed Tinubu in Lagos,he was a disaster as nothing surprises me about him.

Just get financially prepared,I don't see any solution even in the next three years.

I still keep wondering what that man did in Lagos in his 8 years to warrant his supporters calling him Builder of Lagos. Aside increase in Agberos, I cannot pin point one thing he did that’s of benefit of the people. Fashola turned Lagos around for the better.

lol.
Yet only 5bn naira was budgeted for over 1 million Nigerian students as students loan.

Saturday wey go good na from Friday we go know.

We’ll continue running in circles if we keep doing one thing the same way and expect a different result.

Those of us that keep supporting these politicians without getting any direct or indirect benefits from them need to have our brains checked.

ElSudani:
And all the costumes were made for free? All the food and drinks? All the hotels that were fully booked?

These are called increase in sales. The people that come to sell drinks there most likely have stores or businesses and just come to increase their sales.

The festival itself didn’t create “drink selling jobs” nor “costume making jobs”.

Are you saying after the event those “jobs” are lost until the next event?

Una no suppose block the websites and arrest the operators?

Dem dey use bogus figures deceive una.

Let me give a clear example of why those figures up there are not worth anything.

January 2023 I bought an iPhone 14 brand new for 240K (TLC network locked).

January 2024 that same phone cost 450K.

Note the value of the phone in USD has dropped by a few bucks but increased by over 100% in Naira equivalent in 12 months.

That same iPhone 14 now costs 600k above in June 2024.

Now take this analogy and apply it to every other sphere of our daily lives and see if that so called increase translates to value.

You called these jobs? Bro abeg stop it.
Ojude Oba has always been about show off.

stuffs2002:
The only stance you have maintained is that you are a bigoted tribalist with envy and hate northerners for their voting strength.

1) We will still not vote Peter Obi
2) We will still not give you biafla

Know the above and know peace

It takes a tribalist to spot other tribalists.

Envy votes? Since when they have been voting in Nigeria, what has changed? How has it benefited anyone but the few politicians, their families and associates? Everything to you lots is politics, I care less about your damned votes. Preach that to those that come begging for them.

egwajoe:
I Disagree with you my Brother, even if Lagos State should send back all indigenes to their various States, living Lagos indigenes alone.
Are you saying that there won't be Okada Riders in Lagos?
Answer this question with the Fear of GOD in your Heart.

Fashola succesfully banned anything okada on major roads in Lagos state before he left office. As we speak, there is ban on okadas moving on highways and selected LGAs. This particular road where this act occured is Apapa-Oworoshonki expressway, one of the major highways okadas are banned from using. Taskforce have the right to enforce the laws on these highways and this man lost his life while enforcing (according to the story).

stuffs2002:
E be like say your brain don fail you.

You call those your incoherent blabbing facts?

When Kaduna, Katsina etc banned Okada, did they make it a tribal issue? Okada ban was a blanket thing and no one was exempt irrespective of tribe or religion.

Truth don dey come out small small. So all these hatred you have for northerners is out of envy of our voting strenght.

If you cannot ride your okada in Kaduna, Katsina and Kano, you have no effrontery to come to Lagos where bikes are banned on major express to ride it and when you’re reprimanded you result to violence.

I still maintain my stance and you’re free to paint it whatever you like, I care less.

stuffs2002:
Why tribalise issues. Do not let your hatred and bigotry becloud your brain

Traffic offenders are arrested and made to pay fine irrespective of their origin or tribe.

You can't do anything to northerners differently because we are all Nigerians and no one should be persecuted because of his origin.

Even Peter. Obi who was deporting northerners learnt the hard way that it is wrong.

You would be surprised how many of your own tribe are living in the north peacefully without molestation.

You hate the truth. I said what I said because it is the fact. Counter what I said with facts.

Na people wey dey beg una for votes I blame. That’s why you can say all these.

If Kano, Katsina, Kaduna, etc can ban okadas for commercial use and nothing happened, Lagos must do the same no matter whose ox is gored.

I blame the Lagos state government for the menace of okada riders (mostly people from the northern region). You allowed them fester and grow in numbers despite most if not all northern states banning okadas.

They come down here to constitute nuisance and you look away because you get votes or some stupid levies from them. These guys ride facing traffic on major express and you as a government have done nothing to combat this madness.

One guy quoted me saying gibberish that my statement is tribalistic. I stated cold hard facts that are easily verifiable. Majority of those that ride okadas in Lagos are from the Northern part of this country.

Amuwo Odofin, Ojo, Idi Araba, some parts of Surulere, some areas of Eti Osa, Lekki, Ajah constitute majority of these people I mentioned riding bikes for commercial purposes.

They’ll return tomorrow. I've lived in Lagos long enough to know this.

The US government won’t believe FG over their senators. They sent their people here to see things first hand and give them reports.

nedu666:
Who will buy two unserviceable aircraft from you?

My thoughts exactly. It’s more like selling them off as scraps. Whatever amount gotten from the sale may not cater for up to 10% of the new jets cost.

The lawyer said his client was accused of murder. In the mentioned tweet, I cannot find any evidence that shows his client was accused of murder.

The lawyer will need to prove beyond doubts that that tweet accused his client of murder.

Some of these lawyers sef. Na so Iyabo Ojo and Naira Marley sue themselves for 1bn; case wey no dey ever reach court.
