Maazieze:
are you mad? i swear nigerians only want justice when it benefit's them, these people are protesting because of a moronic policy that has left people destitute, get it through your skull

who brought the policy?. APC government, who's APC presidential candidate?. Tinubu. Who are we supposed to beat? 🤣

Misterone:
I pray you guys never enter into government. You are all dictators. Always trying to suppress other people

Throwing emotional blackmail won't save your s!lly a*s from being whooped.

How do you want me to applaud you for blaming a man who's neither the president nor the vice?. He's not even a minister in this government. He's not holding any position. Nothing, just a private citizens, airing his opinion as you aired yours. You want me to allow you blackmail him and blame him for the evil your party brought to Nigeria, you must be m@d in capital letters!!!.

That's the truth

crestedaguiyi:
A staunch cultist is an LGA chairman in rivers state. Some are even in the state house of assembly. Such a bleeped up society

Yeah the ediot is a known cultist. It doesn't still matter, what matters is the opinion of the Masses

Misterone:
yeah! You're so sure cause it's convenient for you to be sooo... Sure. Why? cause it involves Obi, you must find an excuse for him. Even if you catch Obi red-handed on top of your wife, you'll be so sure he is performing massage on her.

keep quiet, is Obi your sitting president or is Labour Party in charge of government

Cyberterror:
Nyesom Wike is an excellent ally to have when searching for votes.

I have no doubt at all that Tinubu will win Rivers state convincingly with Wike's support. Very happy for Jagaban.

He's totally free to support any candidate of his choice, but where he will be dealt with is if he dares to cajole Rivers people against voting for their choice

saintokwuluora:
Wike is a coward after all. So after all the gidigidi, he is not courageous enough to personally and openly declare his support for Tinubu. Using his cronies to show his support for Tinubu is not true of the perceived fearless personality Wike is always desperate to portray.

Don't mind the gutless goat

The Care Taker Chairman of Ikwerre local government area of River state, in company of other Governor Wike's lackeys, were seen dancing and gyrating, puting on Tinubu's campaign logo, in show of support to APC presidential candidate Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

It's no longer news who's Wike's preferred presidential candidate, but Wike is being careful lest the Rivers people throw him off board.
They were heard re-echoing Governor El rufai's anti christian slogan "HOW MANY ARE THEY" .

Wike is already in total fear and trepidation, lacking the much needed psychological energy to sell a Muslim -muslim ticket of APC to over 95% Rivers indigenes and inhabitants.

We know that your voters are illiterate ALMIJIRIS. Shame on you, a PhD holder exploiting the uneducated to feather your nest. Allah will disgrace you.

So everyone is now IPOB

The idiot even went to Niger republic yesterday and had a close door meeting with the Incumbent president and former president of Niger Republic to seek for their support to win the election.

He's contesting for KANO STATE PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION.

Later he will start attributing religion and tribe to Obi's campaign, but he's the one playing religious and ethnic card

Ofodirinwa:
Kwankwaso is discussing Obi
Tinubu is discussing Obi

But Obi is not a threat. Lol ok

I dey tell you. They are all terrified at the mention of Obi

yarimo:

EeyanMayweather:

PrinceOfLagos:

Nigerian businessman and ex-governor Peter Obi remains the top choice to become the nation’s next president, according to a new poll.
Two-thirds of respondents said they intend to vote for Obi, a third-party candidate, in elections scheduled for later this month. The results of the survey conducted for Bloomberg News by Premise Data Corp. were published on Friday – 15 days before the vote to choose President Muhammadu Buhari’s successor.

Of the 93% of participants who said they’ve decided how to vote, 66% named Obi as their preferred choice. Obi scored a slightly higher 72% among decided respondents in an earlier Premise poll that was released by Bloomberg in September as the official election campaign kicked off.

Poll shows Obi is most-favored candidate in February election

While Obi’s campaign has generated a momentum that the two established forces in Nigerian politics were not expecting, the ruling All Progressives Congress and main opposition Peoples Democratic Party insist that he cannot triumph on Feb. 25. They say his appeal is too thinly spread across the country’s states and have derided polling that has almost universally put the candidate of the much smaller Labour Party in first place.

A Surprise Presidential Candidate Leads Nigeria Race, Poll Shows

Still, Obi has emerged as the most popular candidate in six polls including the two surveys conducted by Premise for Bloomberg. Another poll released this week by Lagos-based media and data company Stears predicted that Obi will win in the event of high turnout, but lose to Bola Tinubu of the APC if participation is weak.

Dismissed by his opponents as a “social media candidate,” Obi’s rise has been fueled by disenchantment with the status quo. His campaign has attracted an enthusiastic following known as “Obidients” — initially online but increasingly at rallies and marches — even if the man they wish to help to Nigeria’s biggest ever electoral upset hardly has an anti-establishment background.

Pollsters say they account for Nigeria’s electoral makeup when designing their surveys.

San Francisco-based Premise polled 2,384 Nigerians from Jan. 26 to Feb. 4 via a smartphone app. Submissions were selected from quotas developed by age, gender and location across the country’s six geopolitical zones, the company said. Results were then weighted against the original quotas to ensure national representation.

Rival Candidates
About 44% of Nigerians own smartphones, according to the Alliance for Affordable Internet. Premise estimates that the access rate rises to 74% among the voting age population.

The candidates of the two parties that have ruled Nigeria since the restoration of democracy in 1999 finished in a distant second and third. Tinubu obtained 18% of decided voters and the PDP’s Atiku Abubakar tallied 10%.

A former governor of the southeastern Anambra state and ex-chairman of Lagos-listed Fidelity Bank Plc, Obi is running on the ticket of the Labour Party, whose presidential candidate garnered only 0.02% of votes in the last election four years ago. The APC and PDP dominate both chambers of parliament, and 35 of the country’s 36 governors come from their ranks.

While widespread frustration with worsening economic hardship and growing insecurity has propelled Obi’s campaign further than many initially felt possible, his party lacks the nationwide organizational capabilities of the APC and PDP — which are experienced at mobilizing voters across the West African country of approximately 200 million people. Vote buying is also common in Nigerian elections which provides an advantage to better resourced parties.

State Threshold

The constitution also dictates that a candidate acquiring the most votes in the election can only win the presidency in the first round if they secure over 25% in more than two-thirds of the states. If no one crosses that threshold, Nigeria will have its first runoff between whoever polled best overall and the remaining contender who scored majorities in the higher number of states.

The APC insists the rules make a Labour Party victory impossible as its Christian candidate will not be able to accumulate a quarter of the votes in states across the predominantly Muslim north or Tinubu’s southwestern stronghold that includes the commercial hub of Lagos.

“Peter Obi cannot win the election,” Nasir el-Rufai, the APC governor of the northern Kaduna state, said in a television interview this month. “He doesn’t have the number of states.” Out of Nigeria’s six so-called geopolitical zones, 43% of the country’s 93.5 million registered voters are located in the northwest and southwest.

Another factor that will have a significant impact on the result is the level of participation — turnout in 2019 was the lowest ever at only 35%.

So nobody told the APC candidate that the sultan is not supposed to take sides with any candidate. And what does he mean by "you must endorse me"?

His Eminence the sultan knows better and wouldn't kowtow Tinubu's way. They no botn Tinubu well to force the sultan to endorse him

Nwaetche:
Tinubu is the next president by speaking nonsense and off point?

He knows that His Eminence is apolitical and cannot openly endorse anyone and he wants him to endorse him just because Buhari is there?

Did you see Buhari laugh as other imbeciles and hangers-on laugh in stupidity?

Oil dey your head bro. Tinubu telling His Eminence the sultan of sokoto to endorse him is very stupid of him

Putindbutt:
His confidence, boldness, self esteem dey burst brain.

Not Tinubu supporter but I must give it to him, he's bold, maybe after taking drugs, it emboldens him
