I wonder what will happened if Obi picks a Fulani man as his running mate considering the hates Igbos have for an average Fulani man. Would they embrasse this?

That's the problem, Igbos have burned too many bridges. Do they even expect Northerners to vote for them? Pure no.

A Northerner would rather vote another Northerner or at worst a South Westerner or someone from the South South. Even if Obi picks a Northerner as his VP, he's not going to win except if there's a divine intervention.

Anyway, I believe in miracles.

casualobserver:


The bottom line is how many are they? even if they get all the votes in the south, which they wont, they cannot get the required 25% in 24 states. its a suicide mission!!

They dont think, how is he supposed to govern without Labour senators and house of rep members? who will pass his budgets, who will confirm his ministers?

As far as 2023 presidential election is concerned, Peter Obi winning is a pipe dream. I like the man personally, no doubt.

But with the way Nigerian is structured, there are gatekeepers in the political system who are majorly in APC and PDP. If you are going to be the president, you have to pass through them.

casualobserver:


They are the problems of the SW. They are the reason many in the SW cannot think straight anymore. Their brand of christianity has done nothing but impoverish the minds of my fellow yoruba Christians. They are the reason why Osinbajo turned from star boy to pariah...because he was led by a religious agenda from above.



The truth about state of religion in Nigeria is that the pentecostal church is more dangerous than Islam. There is a small fraction of Islamic fundamentalists but there is a huge proportion of Pentecostal Christian bigots!! You will not see an islamic cleric contesting for political office, the Catholic church wont allow it but Our pentecostals have a grand agenda to control government.

Honestly, are you actually canvassing for a Muslim-Muslim ticket? Doing so is actually playing right into the hands of Atiku.

In this Political era that we are in Nigeria, there are two main things you can't take away from Nigerians when they are making their choices the party they want to vote for : Tribe and Religion.

casualobserver:
unfortunately for the Ibos their leader decided to join a party that cant win and now the main parties are not even factoring them into the equation. When they lose now they will start shouting marginalization.

Please when Peter Obi loses, learn your lessons, know that you are the ones that bleeped up and dont start shouting Biafra or marginalisation. Understand you messed up and go and reconcile and pay your dues and wait your turn.

.

It's as if you read my mind. I would have given Peter Obi 50% probability of winning 2023 presidential election if he stayed in either PDP or APC, but with Labour Party (no disrespect to them), he will only come a distant third.

The funny thing is that you will hear Igbos claiming they've been marginalized again after the elections, or that they've rigged PO out of the presidential race.

Most of them believe the social media hype is enough for Obi to win. By the time Tinubu and Atiku rolls out their campaign machineries, e go shock PO supporters.

Come to think of it,how many states does Labour Party control? None. And you want to win a presidential election? I laugh in Mandarin.

I've always said it, the best way or sure way for Atiku to defeat Tinubu is if he picks a VP from SW.

As it is, if Atiku picks someone from SS, he will share the votes between Atiku, Obi and Tinubu while Obi holds SE bloc tightly and Tinubu holds SW bloc wholely with votes from his VP in the North.

The only option for Atiku is to pick a VP in the SW and split the vote which will affect Tinubu massively.

Killermamba:

Hahahahaha we are watching. For all of you celebrating tinubu ticket I laugh at you in Chinese, if only you know the north that I know, you will understand. Na empty paper baba carry know this and know peace

Don't worry, we are not complaining. Let's wait for 2023 and see who cries.

8stargeneral:
No level of intimidations will make us back off

You go chop beating again. Lol

8stargeneral:
In any market in Lagos Igbo's are 85%

I'm sure your figure is from IPOB's bureau of statistics. Shameless idiots.

Igbojew:
I hope when Igbos start their own Yorubas will should not come here to cry and play victims.That was how Tinubu sent his annoited tug MC Oluomu to attacked Igbos that came out to vote in 2019 but we are watching and counting.......I am that Igbojew the table shaker

If you are so sure of yourself, start any madness in Lagos.

Killermamba:

I be like aboki to you, no body has the monopoly of violence you hear, I believe the thugs that came to okota last election will never repeat such mistake again in their life. Why will I destroy properties? Kids do that, my message to the Yorubas is this, continue to party every weekend why terrorist gradually take over your region. Oga how many hours drive from Ondo to Lagos ? I pity you guys. It will soon over you.

Shebi that's how your arrogance destroyed you in Abuja, this time, you guy cry blood.

xynerise:


All these jobless touts in Lagos sef dey talk. Are you a Lagosian by Origin?

As long as he/she is Yoruba, it doesn't matter. Go to your region and vote.

perez100:
If it's going to be this way, then everybody will arm himself. Hope, when everything will go down in Lagos there eyes will clear. During Endsars, they accused Igbo of burning properties in Lagos but we told them that EndSars were Nigerians from different tribes but they disagreed. Now, they are asking us if Igbos are the only traders in Alaba When we will act, we will also tell them that Igbos are not the only people there.

They have started trouble and I hope they will tell how it started?

I pray you guys try that, we only need one cogent reason to deal with you guys ruthlessly. You will know that this is SW and not your region where you can do as you see fit

toujurs:
What's the ratio of poverty between the igbo's and yoruba's. Go to idumota, trade fair, alaba and computer village. Oga go there and see for your self. Come to festac, surulere, okota, ejigbo and check who rents flats and those renting the face me i slap you, this isn't a brag, but what is happening, yoruba women are even hard working but yoruba has the highest number of lazy men in nigeria than any other tribe.

So, you think your 2*2 kiosk is what determines wealth. E ti ya werey

DaveDGreat:


You must think everyone is like the Yorubas who were brought up to be uncouth and rash. It's only in Yoruba land that you'll see a man wake his children with curses of "Eni Kure" and siblings telling themselves "Iyalaya e". Who doesn't know you people?

Cowards. Why did they stay afar to throw stones? Shey you saw that the stopped the idiots that wanted to go away with the PVC machine? Next time, you'll be at the receiving end.

Says a tribe who wakes their parents with bicycle kick.

Talking about cowards, you guys are the greatest cowards ever. No wonder Ojukwu ran to Ivory coast and Nnamdiot Cownu ran to Kenya. Lol

Killermamba:

Nor pity her she done die, useless balless generation, for my own country one smelling, uneducated bastard go come they tell me who to vote for? Na sorry be him name. Where their ma

dness stop na there our own start

Our prayers have been for you guys to start any madness in Lagos, then you will know what's up.

You destroyed your region and want to come to the SW to vote, you must be joking.

Crixxx:


Hahaha beatings for where? Throwing stones from afar now translates to beating s
Abeg Hausa/ Fulani and other tribes no Dy harass yoruba for Lagos even Igbos Dy scrub their mouth. What I am telling you is harassment or not got nothing to do with Lagos being a no man's land. Say una Dy harass Igbos based on inferiority complex and feeling intimidated in Lagos doesnt stop it from being a no man's lang. Bon ami

No wahala, e go clear for your eyes very. Shebi na ocean Oba of Lagos say make dem push you guys to last, this time, no flogging.

joeyfire:


I voted in 2019, I will vote in 2023. Dem no born Tinubu and his dirty pampers well in 2023

In 2019 when Oba Akiolu warned you guys, no Igbo man came to the polling boots.

joeyfire:


The last time two of oluomo's monkeys were almost beaten to death. Be careful

Alapa stainless dey talk. Lol.

You never chi chomtin

Killermamba:

Make anybody try me I go kill am troy wey

Na your mama I pity

joeyfire:


I have the right to vote in Lagos and I will vote in Lagos. Tinubu and his brown teeth from Osun state can't change that fact

Then be ready for another beating.

Crixxx:


Seems you've not heard of citizens being harassed in their own country by foreigner before.
Harassment got both to do with no man's land. Anyone can be harassed anywhere

But Igbos always say Lagos doesn't belong to the Yorubas, that it's a no-man's-land. How come Dem dey dish Dem beatings left and right.

LWKMD

How can Igbos be harrased in a no-man's-land? Lol

I'm sure some people are not happy about this.

skallion7:
You're an idiot

I've equally lived and worked with the Igbos, they will kill you to get money, whether it belongs to them legally or not. They will sell their children and parents to get any position.

They don't mind selling their whole village into slavery just to ride Benz. Shameless set of people.

sweetjohn:
In no distant time... Yorubas will be totally excluded from Nigeria politics. Let them enjoy now while it last...

Lol. That must beIN your dream. Yoruba can never be excluded from Nigerian politics because they have everything working for them. First, they hold the economic power in Nigeria. All major companies are situated in the SW.

Secondly, talk about population, media, technology, education etc. They are all situated in the SW. As long as Nigeria exists, Yoruba have all it takes to determine what it wants.

Permesso:


I have never heard of any yoruba state governor's patronising Innoson product, cars or Coastal bus. But they will be quick to rush to Japanese Toyota products to grow their economy, but will expect Vat from Federal Government collected from Innosons and Co that are indigenous manufactures. This is very Bad of the so called one Nigeria. Lagos government can encouraged him by chattering buses and Vans instead of patronising, empowering and growing foreign G.D.P.

Please tell us, how many cars or buses have been bought by SE Governors or business men? Stop being emotional pls.

Cherez:


See bro most of you need to gain understanding and not be deceived
1. That billionaire region was brought down by the other parts of Nigeria & Britain & lost but human capital and all & started afresh in1969 whe other states became like 10years ahead at least
2. The population of people generating this IGR in the SE is much lower do this simple maths; IGR/population by state and understand a little.
Albeit same Igbos are also in other regions contributing heavily to the IGRs of those states; in Lagos for example the #1 biggest/modern market if not in W/Africa by name trade fair was single-handedly built by the Igbos from scratch. Go there and even show me any where in the 2nd world such facilities are built by some ordinary merchants ooo!

Sabon-gari Kano is where every Igbo, Yoruba & other tribes run to during chaos in Kano. Go there and see what the Igbos did there.
Check academics today, and other indexes of growth this SE you beef are doing so good and be wary cos they are still coming so man your oars

I know people like you will come up with excuses and statistics from IPOB Bureau of Statistics.

So, are you telling me your 2*2 shops where you sell okrika wares are what is generating income for LSG? Your brothers and sisters are littered all across the streets of Lagos with their Fanyogo and gala selling business - and you think that is where the LSG generates its income?

Even Dangote with over $16B refinery company and another $2B fertilizer plant built in Lagos cannot claim to be the one tributing to the income of LSG. And let me ask, what is the population of Igbos in Lagos apart from the Yorubas who are indegenes compared to other tribes and nationalities in Lagos?

Stop saying trash about the 1967 civil war which you brought upon yourselves as the reason your region is lagging behind. Even Japan that was nuked by the US are a world power now.

Bunch of illiterates, always claiming what they are not.

Odingo1:

Yet they want to go and you are holding onto them and crying like babies. Who is the real parasite!!!

Nobody is holding you, you should rather blame your forefathers who sold you into slavery by removing the secession clause in the Constitution due to greed.

galaxy2020:
Restructure the country and you will see all states working hard, all these figures are not the true figures.

I'm sure it would have been a true figure if eastern states were topping the charts.

Your brain must be paining you.

Where are the Ndi billionaires from the East? Can you imagine, the biggest and most resourceful state in the East couldn't even beat Osun state not to talk of Oyo and Ogun .

Jealousy and hatred will kill Igbos very soon.
