Does he mean the owo attack that people died in the church, living members shouldn't have buried them. But leave them there for the dead people to come bury them?

PoliticsRe: Kwankwaso, Obi Alliance: INEC Rules May Hamper LP/NNPP Merger by shinealight(m): 11:08am On Jun 19, 2022
Mynd44:
Problems
1. Both parties can't merge
2. A new party can't be formed

Solution
1. One candidate leaves his party and joins the other party

Problem from Solution
1. Peter Obi is poster boy for LP will he leave LP for NNPP?

2. It is difficult for Kwankwaso to leave NNPP for LP because

i. His party has strong candidates especially in the Northwest and it will be tedious for them to move to Labor with him
ii. Will candidates under LP be willing to forgo their candidacy for NNPP candidates or will NNPP candidates be willing to forgo their candidacy for LP candidates?

Solution to problems from Solution
Kwankwaso leaves alone to LP and abandon his candidates in NNPP but this will be the worst political move ever
Conclusion: an intractable problem….dead on arrival since both of them want to be President at the same time!

Tinubu is a failure. The Islamic agenda he has been harbouring will never happen.
Islamic Agenda? Does that make sense to you….with a wife of over 40 years?
Obviously for him, the way you relate with your Creator is a private and personal matter to all around you.
This should be the case for all of us….it is not a factor for getting anything in this life.
When your time comes for you to render account to your Creator, you will be ALONE to do so….no wife, husband, friend or Pastor will come along with you. So, people should use their brain to analyse things rather than wallowing in sentimental foolishness.
Anyway, that’s why they say “Religion is the opium of the masses”….they simply refuse to use their senses!!
PoliticsRe: 10 Reasons Why The APC May Lose 2023 Elections - Opinion by shinealight(m): 1:19pm On Jun 17, 2022
NaijaCowFarm:
I present to you 10 reasons why the APC will be kicked out of Aso Rock in 2023

1.Presidential flag bearer: Of the two contenders, Atiku and Tinubu, only Atiku has a national appeal. Atiku is popular in the North, SE, SS, NC, and SW. With 11 million votes in 2019, Atiku would be polling over 22 million in 2023

2. Buhari not on the ballot: With Buhari out of APC ballot, the core North would not be motivated as they were in 2015 and 2019. This time, NE, NW, and NC will be fully Atikulated. The North will rather prefer 16 years of an uninterrupted rule than 8 years of Buhari's disappointing rule, it is common sense. The North wants to know that Atiku would achieve what Buhari failed to do in 8 years.

3. APC's Muslim-Muslim Ticket: This is a no-brainer. Christians in Northern Nigeria are well over 70 million, from Southern Kaduna to Bauchi, Bornu, Taraba, Niger, Nassarawa, Plateau, Benue, and even up to Jigawa. It is funny that APC could not find one, just one of them worthy to be VP candidate. It is unfortunate. Then down South, even SW Christians are against the Muslim-Muslim ticket. We all know that Ondo, Ekiti, and Lagos are predominantly Christians. The Christians see Tinubu's obsession on the Muslim-Muslim ticket as an affront.

4. Tinubu's ill-health: It is a known fact that Tinubu is sick, and very sick. After Buhari's 8 years characterize by absenteesm and bed-ridden affairs, no sensible Nigerian wants a repeat of that. We see that Tinubu cannot hold a microphone to speak, He only uses a standing microphone because his hands are shaking violently. He cannot hold a paper to read, he is sick and not good enough to be president.

5. Electronic transmission of results: This is where PDP killed APC. We all saw how APC fell woefully in Anambra as the BVA ruined their rigging plan. Prior to the elections, the APC candidate was parading over 250,000 members. In the election, APC came a distant third to APGA and PDP. This will repeat in 2023. People will collect APC money and vote PDP or LP (that is if Obi is contesting, but I doubt)

6. APC and Buhari's failure: It is on record that the APC led Nigeria into two consecutive economic recessions, wiped out the middle class, and created the highest amount of poverty in Nigeria's history such that the average family in Nigeria has been reduced to beggars. This is against their promised "CHANGE" and eldorado they promised Nigerians in 2014/15

7. Siddon look chieftains: In case you have not noticed, most chieftains of the APC did not want Tinubu as the party's flagbearer. Even Buhari has not shown that level of enthusiasm you would expect from an outgoing president eager to hand over to a successor in the same party. Up North, the slogan is from baba to kaka? Some of the APC leaders are already looking to jump ship, but as usual, will wait to see how the campaign will go.

8. Tinubu's antecedents: The North does not trust Tinubu. Forget all the photo razzmatazz with Gandulje and Shettima. They know Tinubu to be a tribal leader, who will not only destabilize the power balance. but will create a Yoruba cabal. Also, the Yoruba Muslims are not accepted as Muslims, moreso parading a Christian pastor as a wife, is a BIG NO1

9. Insecurity: What is the APC going to tell people who are under the scourge of bandits, kidnappers, Boko Haram, ISWAP, etc? Will they tell them that PDP is the cause as they did in 2014? Will APC tell the people paying daily taxes to bandits that they are going to rescue them after the elections? What will APC tell Nigerians that they inherited over 5000 Megawatts of electricity, but now only generate 99 megawatts? What will APC tell Nigerians, that they took over when Dollar was N186, but now N600? Or that Petrol that was N87 is now no longer available or that Diesel that was N150 is now N1500? What will APC and Tinubu campaign with?

10. Peter Obi and Kwankwaso effect: As I write, neither Peter Obi nor Rabiu Kwankwaso, who are presidential flag bearers of the Labour Party (LP) and New Nigeria People Party (NNPP) have presented their running mates, 24 hours before the deadline. I believe that these two are not going to contest the presidency. Kwankwaso left PDP because of Wike's overbearing influence on the party's structure, more particularly how Secondus, a trusted ally was removed by Wike's high-handedness. The same applies to Peter Obi. Most analysts do not understand why Atiku did not accept Wike, it is to assure all those aggrieved members that he is a neutral candidate, who is out to reconcile all parties. So, I see Kwankwaso and Obi re-alligning with Atiku to chase APC out of Aso rock.

We all know the moat dirtiest tribe, stop fooling your self, even comedy use them to crack jokes on how dirty they are. Yoruba people dirty, stop lying. And their men are very lazy, always looking for free money.
Nigeria is indeed unworkable….a country where the various tribes hate each other with so much passion.
Sooner or later, everyone must move to their father’s compounds and practise whatever makes them happy there!
All this migrating to other people’s lands for commerce to then start abusing each other should come to an end.
As much as possible, people should eat what they can produce and remain in their own lands except for short visits….as in Scotland for the Scottish, Wales for the Welsh and Ireland for the Irish.
Then perhaps the various tribes will learn to appreciate and respect one another……
Only solution to living harmoniously in the space called Nigeria!

PLEASE COUNT YORUBA CHRISTIANS OUT !!!


Many of us progressive/Christian yorubas campaigned for the Gallant Pastor Yemi Osibanjo to become an APC Flagbearer With a Nothern Muslim as a vice president for religious balance and equity, but we have all seen how everything went and how Tinubu used money to buy delegates...


If no sane average Nigerian Christian could not support Muslim Muslim ticket what made you think Yoruba christians will ?

Those clowns that are shouting religion doesn't matter are mostly Islamic terrorist who won't tolerate a christian succeeding a fellow christian let alone running a christian-christian ticket... Is Nigeria an Islamic country ?

I repeat Count Yoruba Christians Out of Such arrangements, we can never support such abominable act.. Christians are equally the citizens of this country not second class citizens..



We know where our loyalty lies and Nigerians we hear from us soon!!

Yoruba christians wake up !!
Yoruba christians Lagba!!!!
The average Yoruba person does not allow Religion to becloud his/her judgment. Religion, they say, is the opium of the masses.
Yoruba are far too enlightened to be fooled by any religious colorations because Religion will not put food on anybody’s table.
Let the most compatible team be allowed to lead us, regardless of Muslim-Muslim or Muslim-Christian or whatever!
PoliticsRe: Vice Presidential Screening: Okowa arrives PDP Headquarters (Photo) by shinealight(m): 2:30pm On Jun 16, 2022

Hmmm
vice president screening nice one. But is Okowa really sellable in the south. PDP is considering him cos of tribal and southern appeal. He might be the right one for Atiku cus being from the south south and Igbo, he might give Atiku the Opportunity to win.

Atiku's popularity has really nosedived in the south and he needs some one that appeals to the grassroots to sell his candidacy. Lets I would have suggested Wike, but religious sensitivity of northerners is against him and his lack of decorum won't make Atiku consider him.

I believe Atiku needs the vote of the south east and the south south to win this election. If Atiku is going to win it's going to be with a very small margin
More than likely, he will now lose with a wider margin! grin grin

Even the so-called “Democracy” you keep shouting about cannot put food on your table. China does not practise Democracy but she feeds her people and even many democratic nations have cause to borrow from her. So, let’s shout less about your poverty-based democracy that keeps people in darkness and without basic necessities of life.
It is a case of misplaced priority if your people are dying of hunger and you keep shouting democracy at all costs. Do you think the developed Nations of the world have always had democracy? Not so, my friend…..it only became fashionable after they had progressed substantially in keeping hunger at bay. Check the historical records!

DOTian:
Lol
At this stage, it's starting to look like the aim is to push this blundering bundle of disappointment across the election day line.
The maximum support being enjoyed by this senile lootocract in the South West is nothing but a huge indictment on the political culture of the people there. It is a testament to the fact that two of the three major ethnic groups in the country basically provide their most corrupt and inept sons as the potential presidents of the country, in other to have enough room to loot the resources of the country.

Hate him or like him, everybody in this country knows that inspite of his APC/Tinupoo baggage, Prof Osibanjo would have been a far better option for the country than this PooPoocrat lumbering around at the Eagles square. Osibanjo has been in this government for almost 8 years now, he is well read, seems to make reasonable efforts to be descent in his actions and in the few times he was in charge while Buhari travelled, Osibanjo tried to distinguish himself relatively. He would have made more impression across the regions of this country if Tinupoo supported him with his APC machinery.

But our South West brothers wanted none of that! They preferred a near comatose Tinupoo in power. They want to foist this inebriated PooPoocrat on all of us as the president while they will never allow him to leade the South West as a region. Essentially, these people that cry for one Nigeria are only doing so because of the pecuniary gains they make from this epileptic contraption. None is a patriot! All are ethnic jihadists. Anyone who wishes to continuously have a retineu of dying old men in power, at the detriment of their countrys progress and development, is nothing but a tribal jingoist masquerading as a vintage patriot.
