ElSudani:
The Ibos have a way of putting themselves in the middle of everything. They are more involved in Osun elections more than they would in any other Ibo states.
I am not endorsing any acts of violence but Ibos need to mind their own business sometimes.
The Owo shooting was another instance, as soon as the news broke they went crazy online to jubilate. Not very smart.

Are Igbos not Nigerians again? Is Osun not in Nigeria?

Moferere:
They should not turn Christianity to politics.
If you are not OK with Muslim ticket, wait for the election day and vote them out.

Enough of the noise

The noise is too much abi? It wouldn't stop please get used to it.

AntiChristian:
Islam is different. Out of over a billion Muslims how many are involved in terrorism? Just a tiny fraction yet you judge the majority with this.
I already had my answer! I searched decades ago!

The way Christianity is being fractionated in to denominations is quite alarming! God seems to be busy calling people. Miracle peddling! Prosperity preachers! Tithes is good or bad! And other Christian imbroglio!
Moreso, Christ never practiced Christianity nor attended a church! No where was Christianity mentioned by the biblical God.

Almost everything in Christianity are man-made hearsay! No one can confirm the authenticity of the religion.

Moreso, the Christian missionaries who brought Christianity here we're also terrorists. It's either you accept Christianity and learn western education or nothing!

I disagree with you on Islam and here is why.
This year alone, we had a girl killed in Sokoto. She was not killed by Boko Haram but by her Muslim classmates. Stuff like this happens everyday in the Muslim world.
A lady is killed because she complained about her Muslim neighbor pouring water when praying.
Even Muslims that have a change of faith get killed. So it may be wrong to call those killing and those ready to kill and supporting the killing a minority.
Remember when the Christian student was killed Atiku condemned the act until he saw that majority of Muslims supported the act and he would lose them in election.
So I ask which is the right Islam.
Note, in Nigeria, our Muslim government kills Shia for fun. So let's not pretend killing others in the name of religion is accepted by only a minority of Muslim. The truth is that we including you do not know and cannot tell how many Muslims support religious violence.
Lastly, most of the things you said about Christians are totally wrong.

Kagd10:
Says Atiku's miscreants

The main greed is wanting another Northerner after an outgoing Northerner, especially Atiku who looted Nigeria's commonwealth through the privatisation he oversaw.

Meanwhile, Tinubu supported Jonathan in 2011

Tinubu's party ACN had Nuhu Ribadu as presidential candidate not Jonathan. Tinubu at no time campaigned for Jonathan. What is this one saying.

Fast rising Nigerian music star, Portable, has now taken to social media to backtrack on his claim of being the founder of a dreaded cult group, One Million Boys.

According to Portable, he is like a pastor with many followers or a herbalist and alfa with many followers. The singer added that he is an angel with many followers behind him.
The music star also denied claims of being a thief like what the One Million Boys are known for and that he is a child of God.

Meanwhile, The Inspector General of Police (IGP), Alkali Baba Usman, on Monday ordered a probe into a claim by controversial singer, Habeeb Okikiola, popularly known as Portable, that he founded a dreaded cult group, One Million Boys.
POLITICS NIGERIA reports that Portable had claimed in a video that he created the group which is largely made up of youths terrorising residents of Lagos and States. He has deleted the video.
In a statement, Muyiwa Adejobi, Force Public Relations Officer (PRO) said the Lagos Commissioner of Police has been asked by IGP Baba Usman to investigate Portable.
“Sequel to the trending video of one Habeeb Okikiola aka Portable where he claimed to have formed the One-Million Boys cult group terrorising some parts of Lagos State, the IGP has ordered CP Lagos to investigate the indicting statement and take necessary legal action.
“This directive is premised on the continuous effort of the Nigeria Police Force to fish out pillars and sponsors of cult groups in order to decimate their activities and restore sanity to our society,” the statement by the police reads.

This boy is making enemies in high places. APC no dey forgive like that oh

BATified2023:
tell us 5 things Peter obi did better than tinubu as governor?

We have passed that bridge a long time ago. But let me help you.
Let's start with the fact that Peter Obi grew a business even before politics. Tinubu became a billionaire with no known source of income.
Under Obi's leadership, Anambra became number 1 in education.
Peter saved and invested the state's funds more than any known politician in Nigeria.
Peter Obi invested in the people. Before his time, the state had only one accredited hospital but his investments both in private and government hospitals changed all that.
Peter Obi did not assign any of the state's funds to himself as a pension when leaving office, while Tinubu gave himself a billionaires pension.

FreeStuffsNG:
I honestly wonder if you guys always think that this election is online or you have given up since you know that you do not have the number.
Whether it is twitter or nairaland or on wifi, it does not translate to votes.

The election is straight between APC and PDP. All mushroom parties won't get shishi vote and it is so visible to all.
The lesson is that you do not plan and win a Presidential election in 8 months. It is the first sign of unseriousness.

Please vote for Asiwaju Tinubu. He is the best among them and the most capable and most competent to take Nigeria to greater heights.
God bless Nigeria for ever!

What are you doing online? Pot calling the kettle black.

ElSudani:
A lot of the "good food" corn and cassava derivatives anyway. One way or the other you will still eat agbado and cassava.

Your boss would conscript you into the army and feed you with Agbado and cassava. There is nothing you guys would not defend.

Islandlady:
Nawa o!

Ibos should stop this fake victimization abeg

I mean what concerns Ibos and the just concluded Osun election?

Why destroy their property?

AntiChristian:
I don't know which version of Christianity i should believe in now. Anyways, nothing stops the kids from working hard and making their wealth.

We are on the same page.
You raised a very important point, which version to believe. But it's a universal question everyone asks at some time in life. A Christian would ask, which of the Islams is the real one? Is it the one that prays every morning in my street or the ones that bomb and kill in the name of their God?
An atheist would ask, which of all these 100s of religions is the real one? No one would give you the answer, find it for yourself

Softmirror:


[b]OGA THAT KNOWS INTERNATIONAL POLITICS. AS FAR AS IT STANDS APC AND PDP ARE STILL THE STRONG HOLDS IN NIGERIA'S POLITICS AS IT IS PRESENTLY.

STATISTICS DONT LIE AT ALL. JUST TAKE A LOOK AT THE JUST CONCLUDED OSUN AND EKITI ELECTION. MY QUESTION IS, IS LABOUR PARTY NOT FAR OLDER THAN APC? IT WAS FORMED IN 2002 (making an example). YET ALL IT HAS PRODUCED IS A GOVERNOR IN A VERY, VERY KEENLY CONTESTED ELECTION IN ONDO STATE. IT IS A VERY BARREN PARTY NOT FRUITFUL AT ALL.

THERE IS NO THIRD FORCE ANYWHERE POWERFUL TO MAKE ANY SIGNIFICANT DIFFERENC.

NOW LET ME SCHOOL YOU. IN THE JUST CONCLUDED ELECTION WHAT WAS THE MARGIN BETWEEN PDP, APC AND LABOUR PARTY. OF COURSE THE EXCUSE IS, THE PRESIDENTIAL POSITION IS THE FOCUS. PETER OBI, IS A MOVEMENT. WHAT KIND OF MOVEMENT CAN WE DESCRIBE OBI'S MOVEMENT WHICH DOESN'T CARRY OTHERS ALONG WITH HIM TO THEIR OWN VICTORY. I AGREE WITH YOU THAT APC IS ONLY 8 YEARS OLD OF WHICH IN IT'S INCEPTION YEAR ONE AS A BABY, ANYBODY BUHARI'S MOVEMENT, SHOULD LIFT HIS HANDS UP AS APC CANDIDATE IS SURE TO WIN. THAT IS WHAT I AM TALKING ABOUT. WHERE IS THE SHOCKER? EVEN IF NNPP, SDP, INFACT ALL OF THE REMAINING POLITICAL PARTIES SHOULD COME TOGETHER AND FORM A THIRD FORCE THE STILL DO NOT STAND A CHANCE AGAINST APC AND PDP BECAUSE THE WAVE AND MOMENTUM IS NOT SIGNIFICANT TO MAKE ANY DIFFERENCE. UNLESS IF IT MERGES WITH EITHER OF THE TWO PARTIES I ALREADY MENTIONED, APC OR PDP. [/b]

8 months to 2015 election, there was no APC yet they won. What are you even saying

Softmirror:
THERE IS NO SHOCK ANYWHERE. ABSOLUTELY NONE. THIS SAME TINUBU WAS PRESUMED TO WIN THE APC FLAG BEARER BY THOSE WHO LOVE TO SEE THE WOULD THROUGH THE PRISM OF SELF DECEPTION. IT'S LIKE THE WOULD CUP. THERE ARE NEVER ANY SUPRISES. BRAZIL, GERMANY, ITALY, ARGENTINA, FRANCE ARE THE WINNER DAY IN THE OUT. OTHERS ONLY GO THERE TO FILL IN THE GAP. SUCH IS THE GAME OF POLITICS. THE UNITED STATES DESPITE ALL OTHER PARTIES APART FROM THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY AND THE REPUBLICAN WHY HAVE THE NOT SHOCKED THE WORLD SHOWING RELEVANCE BASED ON PERSONALITY AND NOT PARTY AS CHOICE BY THE PEOPLE. DON'T EXPECT ANYTHING EXTRAORDINARY. IT IS WELL PERMUTATED. IT IS BETWEEN APC AND PDP OF WHICH APC HAS A VERY UPPER HAND.

You know very little about global politics. Now let me teach you, it differs from country to country. Many countries depend on a coalition of parties to form a government. In the US, there are 2 strong parties but in most of Europe, You need a coalition of parties to form a successful government.
In Nigeria, it would be foolish to talk about 2 parties because our current democracy is not 8 years old. It's almost 24 years old. APC is only 8 years. It was nearly 1 year old when it kicked the PDP out of power. So what do you know?

Biodun556:
Pot calling kettle black.

You can be the judge

It's too late for all these calculations. Most Christians are not voting for Tinubu. Let's see if he would be able to get the majority of the Northern Muslim votes. He would need a lot of Muslims to vote for him to have any chance of winning.

Kenneth4u205:
Pride comes before failure. PDP won in osun because the presented the best candidate that is loved by the people. Got nothing to do with political party. Say no to Muslim-Muslim ticket .

You are correct, The best candidate, loved by the people. Nigerians do not love Tinubu. Maybe in the SW but not in the North. Name just one reason why any Northerner would vote for Tinubu?

thebosstrevor1:
I will read first before commenting, i will advise you all to do that too.

There is no evidence to show that tinubu was a drug lord in that investigation.

Was he involved in money laundering, yes

Was he accused of not paying tax in the US - Yes

The real drug lord is Lee andrew edwards, he was a supplier of white Heroin to Tinubu's Cousin.

Tinubu was a money Mole for his drug dealer counsin.

The Money in Tinubu US bank account ( $1.2M) was ceased because the fbi linked it to his cousin Heroin Business

He was the accountant for the gang. A very important role in any Drug syndicate.

cocolacec:
Details later

Yes, there about 500 or so of them

Biodun556:
Meanwhile before, religion was not a factor in Nigerian politics. It was CAN who raised the issue of religion in 1993 when mko chose kingibe as running mate

CAN was right in doing so. Before 1993, Nigerian governance was in the hands of one Muslim general after the other.

helinues:
Tinubu is a veteran politician not just in Nigeria but Africa.

All those issues you listed above must have been looked into and address one by one .

The magic behind the success of subsidy protest still dey on standby

The magic is over

backtovillage:
I jst laugh when I see comment like"Tinubu is too old to rule" bla bla bla. Stop watching NTA alone my brother, CNN is there, BBC too c'mon

You don't need CNN and BBC to know a weak shacky old man.

AntiChristian:
I don't know which version of Christianity i should believe in now. Anyways, nothing stops the kids from working hard and making their wealth.

Yes and nothing stops anyone from enjoying the salvation of God through Christ Jesus.

DEROX:
see his igbotic english go and check the abiola 1993 we aint scared check the primaries and see the tribes who voted the fake muslim more lol

Tinubu no bi Abiola. Think a little, what reason does a man from Kano, Kastina, or Kaduna have to vote APC this time? Make we dey think small

lionness:
I was in church today and was verse of the Bible was quoted by my pastor: 1 Samuel 17:36 ► "Your servant has struck down both lions and bears, and this uncircumcised Philistine (Goliath) shall be like one of them, for he has defied the armies of the living God.”

This statement bothered me because I did my masters in the UK in Zoology, and distinctly remembered learning that Lions are mainly found in Africa, and a tiny species in only India. The rest are found in zoos. Now could a lion be in Israel? And then, the word "Bears" also confused me. There are different types of bears in Asia, and I learn years ago that they are called Asian black bears, and they are only found in a different topography of Asia, and never in the Middle East, and the Asian Black Bears only feed on fruits, grasses, and insects, and could have never been a treat to David sheep. And these bears are only found in China, Bangladesh, and Russia, and they are the size of Pandas.

I dont often question the teachings of the Bible, but this gross discrepancy got me confused. And please dont tell me I dont have faith, my entire families are Christian, and my own father was the pastor who quoted this verse this morning while preaching in his church. I need an explanation.

Lions used to be in Israel even up to the Arabian peninsula.
And a few days ago, I learnt that bears ones lived in Morroco. We could research to find out about Israel.

doggedfighter:
Sabbath has a God too ?




.

Yes Jesus called himself Lord of the Sabbath.

AntiChristian:
Steep you said God is just but Adam who is one man sinned and everyone in billions automatically inherits the sin.

1. How is God just by making sin hereditary like sickle cell?

2. Did your dad inherit the sin of your grandpa? If no, when did the sin hereditary stop and why?

3. In Islam, Allah forgave Adam when he repented and prayed. Hence we don't believe in sin hereditary. No one carries other's burden.
Since you claim God is merciful, forgiving, loving etc why didn't He forgive Adam in a short cut process rather than letting everyone inherit sin and later send someone again to be killed for the sins He ought to have forgiven in a long cut process?

God never made sin Hereditary. It was death, the consequence of Adam's sin that we inherited. And, yes children many times inherit the consequence of their parent's actions. If one does not work hard, and he ends up poor, his kids would suffer from that.

Biodun556:
So the three christian dominated northern states will lord it over 17 others who have Muslims as majority?

A norther christian can not win the north for any political party. Take it or leave it. The Muslim Muslim ticket is a political calculation for a serious political party

I agree with you, a Christain cannot win in the north. Obasanjo never won in the North. Tinubu believes that if he chose a Northern Christian, the Muslims would not vote for him. Now he Chose a Muslim and you guys complain when Christians say they would not vote for him?You should expect it na

Biodun556:
Not true

Joe Igbokwe is an APC man, what do you expect to hear from him.

Biodun556:
Not true

Joe Igbokwe is an APC boy what do you expect.

Biodun556:
Election results will show whether christian voters in the North are up to 10 million

Until then. But let me tell u about the north.
Benue, Plateau, and Taraba are Christain states, Kogi, Gombe, and Adamawa have up to 40% Christian minority. Do you remember the Chibok community in Borno it's a Christian community in the most northern state? Many of you guys believe that there are no Christians up north.
And Mr. Biodun don't forget that the northern already has powerful Muslim presidential candidates so Giving them another Muslim vice does not excite them.

[quote author=Biodun556 post=114835176]When? Every time a Christian has been in Power, a Muslim has been vice. Read your history.

Biodun556:
We will know those who don't really want Muslim Muslim ticket in 2023 whether they are minority or majority

In case you don't know, at least 10 million voters from the North are Christians. Many northern Christain leaders feel insulted by this. Tinubu could have chosen a Christian what point is he trying to make?

Biodun556:
But you can christians and canvass Muslims to support christian Christian ticket in Osun.

You don't get it, Nigeria is not Osun. APC produced a Muslim president for 8 years, no problem. They have a Muslim candidate for the next election, no problem. But having a Muslim vice, why.
