If they are not careful, they will ruffle feathers with the way they handle this matter. It's better to handle your thing in house. If Elliot feels he has nothing to lose, he will do another Ambode 2. Even if he loses, he will speak the mind of the party people who are afraid to question the system. Tinubu has been controlling them since 2007, that is 19 years. A 19 yo is now an adult, if those men were 25 then, they are now 44. If they were 50, they are now 69. Don't think they will remain loyal forever because every adult will always want freedom. What Gbaja is telling us is that this is babasopecracy not democracy. Because the President does not like one person, then he has to go. You are even helping the opposition parties that your candidate cannot tolerate who he does not like
You are proving to us openly that the Legislature is under the influence of Tinubu. Just like they are under Akpabio's leadership. Gbaja for no talk this kain thing.
WhizdomXX: Young voters don't turnout like middle-aged voters.
You think so? Young voters are motivated to make change. The middle age have been consumed by the system. They don't believe anything can change anymore. In most democracies, they target the young people. They usually have nothing to lose but their stake is high because they want to have a voice. From Obama 2008 to Trump 2026, young people are always important. Buhari 2015 was young people despite the warning by those who lived under him in 84. Those who rewashed him and believed he was a renewed general were? Young people, under the supervision of the old people who wanted change.
Urgent1Million: Wike is supporting Tinubu's 2nd term bid. Wike is presenting a presidential candidate in PDP to contest against Tinubu. And he thinks anyone still takes him seriously? Next news abeg!
The goal is to adopt Tinubu as their consensus candidate for PDP. That's the best way he can show that he did well to scatter opposition. That's why he is untouchable by Tinubu. He did his bidding.
Atiku, you have a right to contest and no one can stop a man from his dream because it is his dream but if you read the room or if your advisors told you, Nigerians will rather continue with your friend, Tinubu than change the name and face of the candidate to you. If you didn't know that, maybe you should know now.
SixSeven: Atiku should know that time does not favor him anymore just as time does not favor Jonathan who can actually come back one more time now that we have seen the best APC can offer. But make no mistakes, leave when the ovation is loudest. I can't blame him, seeing Tinubu grab it, snatch it and run away with it really motivated him, that's why he has hope and you can't take a man's hope from him, he only renewed it
Buhari also deceived him with the hope that you can try just one more time, when you have given up hope and you will win but he needs to read the room. No one is motivated by Atiku so his campaign will be for those deceiving him. He doesn't realize that Buhari of 8 years and Tinubu of 4 years and his association with both of them has cost him the chance to have his turn. Take away that money he has from him, he will bury that hope.
SixSeven: You overestimate the North. You are assuming that Buhari's bloc vote will automatically go to Atiku but not Tinubu? Or you forget that the ADC is made up of that bloc, who after 2023 didn't want to work with Tinubu? Let ADC choose Atiku and I will congratulate Tinubu today. You don't ask yourself why APC worries about Obi that was supposedly third than Atiku that was second? They know the game!
I put the map here for your reference. Obi won Lagos, Abuja and Rivers State. Add a share of Kwankwanso votes to his or Atiku's votes and you can tell Tinubu wouldn't have won. When APC won in 2015, the KKK states helped them. When analysing numbers, guage sentiments. Tinubu will not get the same numbers as before because now, he's not a virgin, you are choosing to continue the pain in the renewed hope or choose an alternative. Atiku does not appeal to the youth and going by stats, they are the major voting bloc and will be the only ones to want to come out because whether you like it or not, Tinubu is planning on swimming through voter apathy in 2027. Many of these candidates need to retire, including Obi himself. A child born in 1999 is now 27 and would have gone through his adult life hearing about Tinubu and Atiku. A child born in 1993 when Atiku first contested is now telling his own child that Atiku is the future. How? Let me remind you again
In the lead-up to the 2023 elections, 84% of the 10 million newly registered voters fell into this age category. Those aged 35–49 (Middle-Aged Voters) make up roughly 35.75% of the electorate.
nairalanda1: A little secret, people migrate, not just Nigerians, and not because their country is bad or awful.
A lot of Americans migrate to thailand and mexico. Not because both countries are strong, or better, but because the relative strength of the dollar means they can live like kings there.
It is only in Nigeria that we think that japa must be for economic purposes...or that it is because country bad and no anemites.
I get you but honestly, Americans migrating to Thailand and Mexico or even Dubai is for economic reasons depending on the scale.
There is a reason the Northerners use turban so it makes me wonder when I see the ones in the Southern states, with a different climate copy the same dressing because they think it is religious 😂🤡
The mod that pushed this topic is not aware of the seasons in Nigeria. Even the person that started the topic opened it in October, the month of fall.
SixSeven: Africans dressing for wetin no consain them. We are without identity so we keep copying what is not ours including weather. I grew up with sunny and rainy weather, my people don de wake up to spring, summer and winter 🥶 🤡😀
How many seasons do we have in Nigeria? I want someone to correct me. Let me test something. How well do you know your environment not the one you are fantasizing about?
token10x: Why do guys like to buy from endowed women?
It is the same reason women show their assets instead of keeping it. It is why you see more women doing cosmetic surgery than a man doing BBL. The two can play but pay attention to the second picture if you are a wise woman👇
Going to another country is never easy. Most people don't realize that being successful in an environment you didn't grow up in, weren't raised in and don't understand 100% is not easy. Traveling will test you. It will test your limits. It will test your survival mode. It will challenge you. Some overcome these challenges, some don't and if we don't try, we can never know. You can listen to the stories of Sola Sobowale or Don Jazzy. They faced challenges and came back home. Some people will see grace abroad, some people will have to see shege then come back home to see grace. Some people will be seeing grace anyhow anywhere like MTN, everywhere you go One of the things I have learned from travel is that it is a school for learning in life. I would not discourage anyone from facing life challenges. Comfort sometimes makes us slack and I have seen this in life. That's why the migrants always loook like a threat, their thirst for survival is more than the ordinary water you are comfortable drinking
meobizy: Funny how blacks are treated like animals by lighter shades who worship the same deity. My wealthy northern classmate told me that Arabs accuse of them of being lesser creatures, claiming that Allah destined them to become slaves in heaven. Meanwhile, both parties are in Mecca waiting for prayers to begin.
My biggest shock is there are mosquitoes in Saudi Arabia. One would think they would’ve eliminated all of the creatures the way white men do.
Please mention the white man country in your mind and let me show you where the mosquitoes are.
AKWATGOLD1: With this act that Desmond Elliot has vowed to go ahead. I think is heading to his political irrelevant. I think Desmond should have abide by the rule of the party.
He may lose but he will make a statement. Ambode did the same thing. Many of them are just afraid because of where they will chop.
Vision101: There is no ruling party anywhere in the world that goes to sleep in an election year no matter how good that they have performed. OBJ went on overdrive in the west even with PDP controlling many states and the legislature.
Obi enjoyed the element of surprise in 2023 and he has been bragging about it. Now he's being given hitech politics. He has been sweating and that's why he ran to and out of people that he called structure of criminality. After 2027 he will know his level.
Fair enough, let him prove himself at the polls. Hopefully it is free and fair. I like those kind of contests, prove yourself but unfortunately, we know how it is. Obasanjo's gift to us in 2007 is that we don't have a breakdown of the 2007 general elections. The do or die was so bad, Yar'Adua had to setup the panel for electoral reform and apologize for how he got to power.
He said: “You mean that APC would be worried about ADC, NDC? I saw Atiku, he is now our best campaign manager because he is attacking Obi, and I see Obi attacking Amaechi.”
Did you read that well? Obi is the main threat to them. Unfortunately, Obi won't attack Amaechi. One of the things Obi had said in the last campaign was that he won't respond to unequals in the campaign, which when you look at it is what all the candidates did. He didn't bother responding to Omokri who was an aide, he said I will talk to your boss. He also does not respond to insults. Soludo tried to demarket him and he called him Professor who knows better can help him fix the problems he did not know how to fix. He call am brother
Tinubu tried to demarket him by saying he won't even call his name but he didn't respond to him at tall so if you are expecting Obi to be attacking Amaechi, sorry is your boyfriend's name.
Last time, it was Gbaja saying the ADC guy should scatter them. Tinubu said he will send Akpabio to opposition and now Oshiomole wants them to fight. If the opposition should take any notes from APC's playbook, it's that they don't want Nigerians to demand accountability from them. If you all focus and press APC's neck, e go choke. They've been in power for 12 years, they have 31+ governors, opposition should be their least worry but we know why a man who can't perform on bed will blame his wife and her family for being barren. Let her family be fighting among themselves when he's the actual problem, at least it takes attention away from the elephant in the room🤡
SixSeven: They know the real result of the last election. It's now obvious Atiku wasn't second. Because I ask myself why Atiku is not more of threat than Obi. I now think that it was deliberate to not make Obi second so that his support base don't have false hope that he could have won the election. I challenge anyone to go and do the stats of election results in areas like army barracks, universities, highbrow estates etc and tell me who won. That is not a statistical representation of the whole result but I personally monitored the results across the country in these places. Why? These are areas where security or elite live so manipulation and thuggery is not likely here. I know my results, you can do your findings. I woke up to the announcement the next day and Naija magic Don happen. Yakubu, manage
1mansolder: APC is very very scared of Obi that is why they are everywhere trying to demarket him

Fiscus105: You think this type of stuff cannot happen in real life? Uhm, I laugh in French, more than this are happening, the more you look the less you see. It's commonest!
If they show you dirty things going on daily basis, only few were leaked and extremely few are reported.
If Sisi Alagagbo dirty stuff didn't leak, would you believe, husband doing 3some together with his wife?
Things happen in this world but any adult who reads that story by the OP will know it's made up. You see how you treat Blessing CEO and her stories, na so you suppose regard this one.
I made a post about their women too. You are just a tool to give them babies and provide for them. The same reason some women want to have babies, a getaway card from life responsibilities. Dem no de tell person when life show you shege
SixSeven: You get it! I know it's not easy but women have thought that emancipation is about financial independence and that women were abused back then because men had more money and that's why he could take a second, third or fourth wife. Women always want to wear the same trousers like men until they find out the reality. Again, it's only a well brought up woman that can honor her man and know his importance in her home. These days, a lot of women are doing better than men, but women are finding late in their 40s to 50s that financial independence is good but that's not what it takes to be a man. The way women react to women is not the same as men, that's why I will advise me that don't depend on them as much as possible if you can. It sounds harsh but these were things old men taught us but we didn't understand. Tell women today, they will say it's misogyny but I don't care. The harsh reality for men is that given the same authority and financial means men have, women will treat men in a way that he will prefer to be a gateman to being her husband. Men must learn this right now. Women are hypergamous. Even if she was not doing well as you before you get married, if you slack and don't improve yourself, she will get tired of you.
A woman is a man who doesn't have to be a man. A man is a woman who is not allowed to be a woman.
If you listen to what Obey says here, it's golden advice for men (and maybe women):
I have seen how women behave in relationships and marriage and when I try to resolve the differences, you will see these small things. Women don't like the hard truth but these things repeat themselves. Men who refuse to learn will learn the hard way. Experience is always the best teacher.
All the best in your manhood
As if what I wrote here wasn't enough, I just read this study that reveals what women would do if they won a $1m vs what a man will do but look at this one where women marry and divorce men, what do they say? It's hard for them to be alone when there's no provider
“I’ve divorced four times and each time I’ve had a party.”
In Mauritania it’s thought half of all women get divorced at least once with some remarrying multiple times. Many choose to celebrate their divorces but for the poorest there are serious consequences. pic.twitter.com/TC7il1ottH

A man will provide without conditions most of the time but that very same thing is very hard for women to do unconditionally, another reason why they become bitter.
Men, know this and know peace, WOMEN ARE NOT BUILT TO BE PROVIDERS. The moment you know that, you would have figured out a lot of things you need to know as a man.
boxypane: Please another list of 3 groups of men ladies should run from o. Equality is key.
You are right. Women should take note 👇 Your value is in your virginity, believe it or not. Or your purity, you require higher standards than men. Don't let men get into your pants anyhow, men are opportunists, protect yourself.
You are not sure of a man's intention until he has you.
Education is your best investment. E get whu
Character is beauty. Men will eventually get tired of the boobs and ass. They always claim they want peace. Peace comes from feminity not masculinity.
The more you act like a man, you make a man take the back seat. Never help a man too much, you will kill his hunting spirit. A woman is a man who doesn't have to be a man. A man is a woman who is not allowed to be a woman.
Be careful about the man who you let into your body. Ask yourself, will I like to have a baby like him?
Before you make decisions about men, ask another trusted man that doesn't want anything from you. They can separate logic from emotions. A kind man is better than a good man and a good man is better than a bad boy and a bad boy is better than a manipulator.
SixSeven: Ignoring men in their life and following their hearts. Any man that wants peace must first investigate the men in her life and observe how she treats them and regards them. The way women can smell bad women, men know a woman who's going to waste your life in the name of love. That's why unserious men avoid the father, uncle or men in her life. They know the mumu button of women so they will deceive you, sisters and mother. Man to man, we know ourselves, we know game. Men in her life isn't one spiritual father who did not give birth to you. You can have mentors, including those that are spiritual but make sure you are taking this guy to men dem so that after he open ya pant, you won't be online posting SO WHAT ARE WE Now? That's a question they would have asked him before you fell in lustlost love.
Assume that your fellow woman doesn't have the best interest in you as she always wants your downfall or wants you to be in the same level with her but on the other hand, men are not your best friends Women tend to groupthink and FOMO
Biodun1929: I've noticed they use a lot of old Peugeots in Iran...probably because of all the sanctions on the country over the decades. Beautiful resilient people.
Check Cuba and find out the same thing. That's what American sanctions do. They are not using the sanctions as an excuse. If to say na Naija, that sanction alone is enough for them not to do anything.
NOETHNICITY: I’m Muslim. And I don’t think the man makes any sense. There is nothing in Islam that prohibits drinking water while in the mosque. I’ve had to enter the mosque with a bottle water, not because I want drink it but because there’s still water in it and I don’t want to leave it inside the car due to heat. Moreover, Islamic prayers don’t take consume hours and are not physically exhausting. During Ramadan Muslims eat in the mosque very consistently.
As someone who's traveled and being to different worship spaces, I can categorically tell you that you are wrong. I have been to places where they write these things including spaces for Buddhist. The Ramadan you talk about, some mosques do not allow you eat where they pray, some of them lay a disposable cover on it. Imagine you are praying and start smelling food or water where you pray. Management of spiritual places do these things because of people management and facility management. You don't know what it is on the admin side and the way you justify yourself is the reason why they have these rules. These places say no phones, no talking, no this or that. Just because some allow does not mean everyone does. Travel to different places and you'll see different ways of doing things. Someone told us some countries ban chewing gum, would you say that's too much just because the rest of the world allows it?
GeneralOuki: You're not getting it. Asking people to not nourish themselves in your presence is shows you're an egoistic control freak, which is what most of these MOGs are. Not even God has ever asked that of any man.
But that's how you interpreted it. Have you read other comments that explained the full video and the reasons he gave for that? Aren't you condemning him based on assumptions?
Edit: you have made me watch the video. He says the same thing I've said even without watching it. He talks about decency and pentecostal rascality then asks his members if they've seen any catholic priest drink water in church. He says they are in the presence of God. Do you think he's still wrong or was he condescending in the way he talked because he said if you want to drink, step out. Is that wrong?
Urgent1Million: Once you get big black cucumber and fit knack for up to 1 hour straight, come get money join, all their madness go evaporate. Any woman who cannot shop in your wallet or/and boxers will always be disrespectful.
