Is obi more influential than him

Obi just knew he wants to be president of nigeria in 2022 and election is 2023

Moghalu has been involved since 2019

If you are not an apc disguise use your brain

TheStakeHolder:
Not peculiar to Nigeria alone.

The decline is due to the global economic recession ocassioned by the pandemic.

Toks2008:
What if Proffesor Yemi Osinbajo comes out as independent candidate?

History has shown that indirect primaries in Nigeria have never produced candidates who truly have the interest of Nigerians at heart and we can no longer put the future of our children in the hands of these old inept recycled politicians.

I still believe in Proffesor Osinbajo and there is a provision for independent candidacy in our constitution.

I am convinced that this will be a viable path at this juncture, an option worth exploring.

JooEeL:
The Fulanis are strategic and divisive, and have an uncompromising loyalty to their race. With a clearly defined mission.

EXPOSITION ON THE 10 FULANI RULES:


7. Cultivating corrupt satellites and saboteurs in every ethnic nationality, while politically or militarily annihilating the true leaders. (Like they did to Awolowo, Saro Wiwa, MKO Abiola, Mailafia... and recently tried to do with Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, Sunday Igboho and even Prof Akintoye. As years go by, your ethnicity is filled with far more saboteurs than true leaders, further complicating your ability to break free from bondage).

helinues:
Toh

Reno picked Atiku over Obi

Currently picking Tinubu over Osinbajo

Reno truly shows his true character

obiekunie01:
nice dance steps.

that man on jean shirt na cluber.





with all the mallams wey full national assembly complex, none of them is among the protesters.
only southerners are the ones protesting.

While the northern legislators always make sure their people are well taken cafe of , their southern counterparts always leave their own staff hungry.

southerners eh! our matter na only god go help us.

Iamgrey5:
They are not playing a game

Northerners are genius when it comes to politics

They want a Southerner to contest against Atiku and probably lose the election.

This is better than Adamu's plan of Lawan which is still going to lead to a loss but the party will implode.

simongonner:
well said.. I pray they give Lawan, that's all for APC...Tinubu and his boys should just back OBI..let all south Unite for 1.. they will win the north eazily

Arrewa:
Rubbish!!! Adamu is going no where!!

I’ve seen some comment from some Yorubas saying they won’t vote for a northerner again, they always starts making the elections as North vs South and later start blaming northerners for voting based on tribe and region when we support our own!!

Find a new way to sell your Candidate not by making the election a war between northerners and southerners!!

You can’t use this and expect to beat the most populous region in the country...


Even if a Southerner is going to emerge... It's never going to be Tinubu!!

And heaven won't fall!!

Thoh:
They should bring down the flag totally and raise Oduduwa own.
Biafra will follow suit.

Ijaw Republic is fully ready already we are just waiting for new slight provocation.

Kwararafa Rep.(Middle Belt) should do the same.

Owo is Akeredolu Hometown.

Arrewa:
this killings is politically connected..
it's unfortunate that African politicians depends solely on "instigation strategy to send political message.

just because your presidential ambition was threaten... you've started the Fulani herdsmen killing campaign!!

without any concrete investigation they will
tell u that herdsmen are responsible for this attack... in fact their online urchins have already started. incase he lost the primaries!


a day to APC primaries, church attacked in ondo state, Fulani herdsmen blamed.. then Tinubu will have something to hold onto!


We are watching... I only pity northeners still living in south at this critical time!!

Rip to those who lost their lives!!

DOTian:
Weeping is a sign of weakness! Fulani NEVER shows mercy to those who weep! The roundabout at Enugu was weeping too and the killers only increased the tempo! They only ran away when IPOB opened a new page for them..You don't weep with the fulani, you don't beg them too! You don't try to preach to their conscience, they have none! What you do to the fulanis is to meet them with bigger Evil. They only run back when they see that you cut off hands and heads the same way they do. Very simple! You see how they run from ESN these days?

They are used to killing without reply and they are now running amok! This attack in Ondo State was carefully planned because of this governor! He championed Amotekun and he headed the Southern governors call for power shift! The Fulani whose grandfathers arrived here killing at will, are always of the opinion that killing is the best way to live. They're proud of their violent pedigree. They just wanted to shake the governor with some violence. The fulani will NEVER stop until we stop them! You can only stop the fulani by being tough and ruthless with them not by crying.

Quelme:
This is a direct result of US catastrophic foreign policy. Ghadaffi was a bulwark against Islamic terrorist but the US came with their democracy and almost 10 years after, Africa is still reeling from the aftermath of Obama failed foreign policy. What a pity!!!

Obama wherever you are, you and your terrorist NATO no go die well!!!

FakeUnity:
Man seems isolated...He don really suffer.

"Emi lokan..."_He cries.

The north will give him what he wishes in APC and then support their brother Atiku. APC has served it sole purpose of bringing buhari to power after wrestling it from the south. North needs only one southern region to keep presidency but they have two already.


There is a majority southern consensus that it is not yoruba's turn to rule. And their poisonous words against other southerns have not helped their cause.

hopefulLandlord:
Money ritual is bullsheet, if it worked then we'd simply sacrifice a few lives to pay off our national debt and even take it a step further into becoming the richest country in the world

Parachoko:
He forgot to tell us about how Atiku became a billionaire

Atiku led the economic team that paid off Nigeria’s debt, privatized the telecom sector, and cement industries, that exploded our GDP and created jobs and brought in technocrats into Government.

African Union warns of ‘collateral impact’ as EU’s Russia sanctions hit food supplies
Developing nations say ban on Swift payment system for Russian banks impedes purchases of grain and fertiliser



African Union warns of ‘collateral impact’ as EU’s Russia sanctions hit food supplies
Developing nations say ban on Swift payment system for Russian banks impedes purchases of grain and fertiliser



Western sanctions on Russian banks have made it difficult or impossible for African countries to buy grain from Russia to help solve a global food crisis triggered by the invasion of Ukraine, the head of the African Union has told EU leaders.

Macky Sall, Senegal’s president, made the complaint by videoconference at an EU summit on Tuesday, the latest sign of concern in developing countries about the economic and humanitarian impact of the Ukraine war and the surge in energy and food prices that has been exacerbated by sanctions aimed at Moscow.

“Our countries are very worried about the collateral impact of the disruptions caused by blocking the Swift payment system as a result of sanctions,” Sall said. He was speaking after the EU endorsed a sixth package of sanctions that will curb 90 per cent of Russian oil imports to the EU and added Sberbank to the list of Russian banks excluded from the Swift messaging system for financial transfers.

“When the Swift system is disrupted, it means that even if produce exists, payment for it becomes difficult or even impossible,” Sall said. “I would like to insist that this question be examined as soon as possible by our relevant ministers to find suitable solutions.” 

Russia and Ukraine are among the world’s biggest grain exporters, and about 20mn tonnes of wheat are stranded and awaiting shipment from the Black Sea port of Odesa because of a Russian naval blockade of the Ukrainian coast.

Faced with complaints by Sall and other African governments about the difficulties of importing grain and fertiliser from Russia, EU leaders have laid the blame squarely on Russian president Vladimir Putin while simultaneously trying to arrange the export of Ukrainian wheat stocks by sea or overland.

“The fact that there is a severe food crisis developing is only the fault of Russia’s unjustified war,” European Commission president Ursula von der Leyen said at the conclusion of the summit, noting that there were no EU sanctions on Russian exports of food or fertiliser.

Olaf Scholz, German chancellor, said: “There are many stories that are a distraction from Russia’s war in Ukraine — we shouldn’t accept that.” Last week a senior French official said it was important to “deconstruct” the Russian narrative that it was the retaliatory sanctions rather than the invasion itself that lay behind the growing international food crisis.

But Scholz acknowledged that there were some issues with payments for fertilisers and an EU official said that there was a “glitch” in the sanctions regime given the difficulty of paying for produce that was not supposed to be affected by the EU’s measures against Moscow.

In much of Africa, the Ukraine war threatens not only to increase food prices but also to push the cost of fertiliser beyond the means of millions of farmers, threatening next year’s harvest. “Eastern African countries are fully dependent on fertiliser imports and the rising fertiliser costs are expected to have severe implications of food availability and prices,” the UN said.

A senior Ethiopian official has argued that the war in Ukraine and Swift sanctions on Russia — which make it hard to pay for Russian grain and fertilisers — are “bringing significant shocks” to the economies of east Africa, as inflation spiked.

President Emmanuel Macron of France, which holds the rotating presidency of the EU, said he hoped that in the coming days and weeks an agreement with Russia could be found for Ukrainian food exports, saying that recent talks between the Russian and Turkish presidents on the matter were a “positive sign”.

It appears that this is the only institution for which Tinubu has actionable credentials.
However, let me inform you that Richard J. Daley College is a community college.

What that means is that it is not a degree-awarding institution, only comparable to our OND/HND awarding polytechnics or colleges of education in Nigeria.

koldej:
It depends on you, let me tell you something some people will ask you why do you need to run a Bsc programme again when you have an HND? they will question your self esteem
I'm also in your shoes.. but this is what I have come to realise so far
1) HND or BSc.. there is no job out there
2) HND or BSc the organization doesn't care, in as much as you know your job
3)YES! HND in statistics qualifies you for direct entry into Accounting
But!
There are some opportunities you will not get if you don't have a degree
There are some chances you will not get to prove yourself if you dont have a degree
There are some interviews you will not get if you don't have a degree

The bottom line is that being successful in your career path is not dependent on whether you have an HND or BSc.

As an HND holder, I will say I've never been out of job since I graduated 2years ago, but the truth is there are better opportunities I have missed out on due to the fact that I don't have a degree, I'm currently trying to run a conversion programme in a course related to my field.

@23 you are still very young, please opt for direct entry if you are from @least a average family who are willing to support you for the next 2-3years again, if not you can try conversion programme, this will give you the opportunity to work and continue schooling at the same time.

But please in whatever decision you take, go and learn IT, I sincerely believe you will do very well in coding or data analysis.

If you don't mind we can be friends

A true sh**thole ..
Shame on Nigeria..

Nigeria failed as a country because when other countries were planting rice they were eating it...When other were building industries.. companies..developing new ideas they were busy building churches and mosques...When others were working they were very busy praying...

Roads..Electricity..Water..Education..Housing..security..Government..Food..Jobs..Currency..police..Politics..Unity..Aviation..Stability..Transportation..Corruption...just to mention a few...
Nigeria is a failed state a woefully failed state..and what are the citizens doing.. praying to a lifeless God/gods and blaming the white for their misfortune..*spits*

saintkel:
oga forget dis talk wey u just d talk.....in 1999...was Obasanjo more presentable than Ekwueme?.....didn't Igbos vote for Obasanjo who was just out from prison?.....untill d south unites.....we will keep playing second fiddle to d north.....and in fact untill d Yorubas learn to support s Igbos....no southerner will win dis election even come 3030

Naajjii:
It seems you are not aware of what that arrogant Wike did to Udom. Wike causes a parallel congress in Akwa Ibom just to trouble Udom. The same wike on channels TV was proudly and arrogantly giving reasons why he didn't botger to visit certain states during his campaign tour. Such a rude and arrogant person can not win an election that requires people from different regions to vote. He keeps fighting and insulting people, fighting his colleague Governors and others. Let him learn politeness and humility from Atiku and Jonathan. It's the reason people from different parts of the country are drawn to them.

saintkel:
the Yorubas should have realized that if south were United, any Igbo man can win north come 2023.....u guys r d ones causing us pains...didn't we support u in 1999?....when will d Yorubas support d Igbos?
