Akinkunmi Amoo is a baller I've watch his video on YouTube

Yes, very good right from his U17 days.

COMPAQ:
Are you comparing Obasanjo, a former Millitary Head of State, with his National connections and networks with Sowore!!??

Besides, the circumstances are different. Obasanjo had just come out of jail and the Presidency had been zoned to South West due to the Abiola issue, so due to his clout and sentiment for him being in jail he was able to pick a ticket. If I recall it was him and Olu Falae that contested.

I only pointed out one major example that punctured your assertion. Now you have added conditions to accommodate Obasanjo's example

Where did Yoruba and South East come from? You two major tribes are just full of stupidity. Can’t wait to separate from both of you.

Na so we see am. That's black man's stupidity in full display.

Some of them are so passionate against their own black brothers that they even think people outside of our borders care whether you are Igbo, Kanuri, Ijaw, Yoruba or Tiv.

Though some just dey catch cruise here to pepper the passionate ones

Even as a Davido fan, I don't understand what this topic is supposed to do for Nigerian youths or Nigerian economy other than encourage useless time wasting communication.

Davido is a billionaire's son also doing very well for himself. He is a one off and his experience will never be that of 99.9999% of a typical person. So why we dey disturb people with this kind matter

freshkpomo:
NATO don enter this war... They sent some soldier probably dressed in Russian military outfit.... When US said Russian president sent assassins to kill the Ukrainian president but guess what? They just twisted narrative... They actually sent those men and no one knows who is getting assassinated but Russia will take the blame even if it's Putin that falls... NATO troops will gradually enter in Ukrainian outfit. Even the weapons you see been donated might not be the real weapon the EU is giving to the Ukrainian..


Russia just use hand Waka enter trap!!!

Nollywood needs you. With your vivid imagination, we can reach Hollywood level

Chai Iboman too dey fear fear. See as they all pick race instead of helping egungun

COMPAQ:
It would make more sense for Sowore to contest for Senate or House of Reps. He is popular his area, so that would be far more winnable.

It doesn't work that way. Obasanjo became the president of Nigeria and if you know about his constituency, he can never win ordinary councillorship there

Chop your sanctions like real men. Abacha did it

ajl:
Stop fooling yourself. I was even more hopeful than you until I began thinking critically with no emotion. A country that is devoid of justice can never rise up. Add corruption and a corrupt 1999 constitution to that, and thats why the country is like a man on a sick bed.

Well, I use to think like you and was even more hopeless until I began thinking critically with no emotion and read up stories about a former war-torn country called Rwanda. I read more about people, not the domineering few who have cornered power in most countries, then my eyes opened. Nigeria shall be free.

NL:
No longer zoo.

So they want to identify as a member of zoological republic and not the land of their rising moon...

I am yet to see them waving biafran flag so that Ipobs will come and evacuate them.

This shouldn't be a time to be divisive. This is a time to appreciate what binds us together. You don't have to rub it in. The agitations are not baseless, we only need to build bridges and form better alliances.

I understand your point though, some (North, East, South, West) are so blinded by hate and divisive spirit that they simply don't see any way out other than outright hatred, separation or even war but we can't allow them drive our collective narrative as Nigerians, the battered giants of Africa that will eventually rise again.

Go and marry, go and marry. See what you've caused!

I don't know why most deluded Nigerians are masturbating on the Tinubu or Osinbanjo Presidency come 2023 because the candidacy of Osibanjo is not acceptable because his election as president cone 2023 is tantamount to d Third term of President Buhari, that's characterized majorly by ethnocentrism, followed by religious bigotry, nepotism, ineptitude, paddy paddy govt, cluelessness an innate and deep-seated show of bitterness and hatred for the Southeast region. Thus, many concerned Nigerians that reads in-between the lines wants someone that will probe this failed govt and d atrocities it has committed. While going for Tinubu will be like replacement of an ancestor with another ancestor. To put a death-nail in this whole nauseating clamour for either of the two, are they both not from the Southwest region. Is the presidency of Nigeria meant to be a ping pong between the Northwest and the Southwest? Abéggīí, make the dumb ones amongst us to go and get sense.
The next presidency MUST come from the Southeast to reformat the madness we are all suffering from , from sick, incoherent, near vegetable president who ONLY sees his presidency to satisfy the interest of the North, especially the Northwest of Fulani extraction.

You are only speaking for your personal one vote, the majority of the party delegates who will elect the candidates for the major political parties don't give a damn about your personal fears and concerns.

Election is almost here, tell us your preferred candidate and promote your candidate. No saintly candidate will come from the moon, your next president will come from the same evil APC/PDP core that we have known for 23 years. This is not a church election or family house election. It's for the president of a nation dominated by less than perfect people, we know that already.

greatness77:
this is exatly my opinion, our people are are soooooo!! Greedy GOD FORBIDE,puting two hand in the mouth, igbos suppose concentrate on importing SAM Batteries and heavy artillery dis is what we need not useless president dat will still send fulani soldiers to kill us, i developed hatred towards nigeria when i was 14years after reading the history of biafra war, Imagine the people that killed us in 1967 and have sent soldiers again to kill us chaii!!! Nigeria is an evil country, may the wrath of the most high remain in nigeria, GOD will send angels of death to the nigeria side

You developed hatred towards Nigeria after reading the history of Biafra war which is understandable. Have you read the history of Igbos man's inhumanity to man with the practice of OSU caste system which many are even justifying till today with their typical verbal gymnastics?

Maybe Biafra war was God's angels of death from the cries of the innocent. There is no friendly war, and war is not fought with mouth. You punch above your weight level, you get pummeled. That's why the wise promote progressive coalitions based on mutual respect, not war. Just saying.

Sannisege:
So why are you supporting Atiku? Or is Atiku a catholic?

Three pages of comments and no one bothered to explain that there was no endorsement in Alaafin's comment

pharmagba:
It was never a favor to SW at all
They wanted another, which reflected in the voting and you frosted your choice on SW

True. The SW tilted towards the AD candidate not the PDP candidate. I'm sure whenever it's time to back a SE candidate the Yorubas will reciprocate by insisting on someone like Joe Igbokwe or Lauretta Onochie. Shikena!

marcopollo:
What about Green Sand Shandy?

Baba I salute your age

HayB100:
Lok, I read some comments and I can't stop laughing, those saying Aregeb supporters will cross to PDP are making a big mistake, same thing will happen to PDP whenever they hold their Primary election, they also have so many scores to settle, so it's no WIN-WIN for PDP

Just enjoy the expert comments of our Nairaland online polling booth politicians who have never attended a real life political meeting lol

That's why adoptive parents are made to go through extensive period of preparation and counseling. Adoption is not for everybody. Understand who you are especially your shortcomings, what you stand for, your values and your insecurities, don't adopt for selfish reason. Children are not properties, they are not investments, they are not retirement plans, they are human beings with their own lives to live.

This thread question addresses the very essence of adoption. When you adopt a child, you are inherently assuring the society that the adopted child is unconditionally yours. You are now the father/mother with no strings attached.

BloomingDale:
Yorubas should vote PDP next Lagos election to whittle down Tinubu’s influence. I’m probably sure he and his cronies are the ones sucking Lagos dry, but what do I know?

Why PDP? Based on what? How did Lagos fare before Tinubu's influence & how is Lagos today? How do other states compare with Lagos within the same timeframe? Who are the people sucking the other states dry?

gentiles:
Is there any truth in what he said? When did Osibanjo make that comment?

Don't mind them. Na mere beer parlour talk. You know in Nigeria people make up stories in their head and present it as fact. Investigate it well, you find out there is no verifiable direct source. It's 3rd party "I hear say.."

OVB123:
U have hit the nail on the head. Tinubu and osibanjo will not get the party ticket. I pity both of them.

Pity? These are politicians, they will align with what works for them & most likely eventually back their party's choice. They have options.

It is their followers wasting their valuable time on online fights and useless analysis that should be pitied. Time waits for no one.

Brian47:
What about Saka?
I thought he changed to Nigeria also

Nope, Saka is a full English international.

However, I understand the circumstances and his personal reality but watching Saka (with his distinctive hardcore Oyo Naija face) play for England is truly strange but it is what it is. It's like watching Wayne Rooney play for Nigeria. Reality is that he is a born and bred Londoner, feels English and he is not the first, certainly won't be the last.

Papa Bomboy, congratulations! Anything for the boys? No try abort am, you've been warned

LINTUNE:
guy sentiment aside , she's saying the truth and u know it. its even those kind of girls that take care of their aged parents more.

Sorry I don't know about that.

Iyaebe:
99% of the karashikas you mentioned still care and remember home unlike the yahoo boys

I don't have that statistics, though would love to see your data source, but what eyes have seen can't be unseen

Victor, no try am o!

Iyaebe:
A girlchild is so caring, it's unfortunate if a man has no female child,when he's old and tired he'll be surrounded by football-discussing children ranting *sorry dad* with thick voices. Make it a prayer point to be blessed with female children as a man.

You have a point but we have seen lots of Karishikas doing their thing without a care in this world and we have seen lots of men taking good care of their parents. Your best guarantee of a good 'evening' life is to work very hard today and invest well. There are excellent elderly care services springing up everywhere. The youths of today are not likely to have any time for anybody, it's a way more competitive world. The western world faced that reality long ago.
