Abi.......why should I vote 4 sum1 that brought failure to us. Because E Mi lo kan(it is my turn)

Thanks bro

JoeNL22:
Thank you broda. Please let him know. Maybe he(lexy1230) stays under a leave or rock, who knows?

Welcome bro

Olaoluwa122:
If staying deluded means saying No to A.P.C then let me keep staying deluded...

Lexy123O doesn't know that Most Nigerians really suffered this last 8 years. Whether, Yoruba, Igbo, or Hausa, many of us are determined not to make the same mistake

Lexy123O:
I know people like you . I’m not engaging you any further

You are angry with him because he does not support your candidate? Don't blame him. Many Nigerians are tired of APC, they want to try something new. Many are disappointed, they expected so much from APC, they voted 2x for the party, yet they have nothing good to show for it. So don't be angry with such people.

Olaoluwa122:
Love ya analysis...even in lagos Obi will win substantial amount of vote there believe me..tinubu can not I repeat cannot win lagos with 70%..

Many Yorubas are not going to reward APC with another 4 years after these terrible 8 years. The majority would still vote for Tinubu because he is their Brother but a good number don't care about him.
As for the north, Tinubu is not sellable. After 8 terrible years under APC, what reason does the average Northern have to vote for Tinubu? Remember, Atiku is from the north.

Lexy123O:
Lol . Keep living in delusion .I’m Christian and I’m voting Tinubu and so are many of people I know.


All this noise of Yoruba Christian not voting Tinubu is only an online things, and it’s being propagated by Peter obi supporters. If a Yoruba person won’t vote for him it won’t be because he’s Muslim or not. We’ve grown past that .

The truth is Tinubu would win the west but Peter Obi is also quite popular here. Many Yorubas would vote for him. At the end of the day, Tinubu would win the SW but Peter would come second with a good number of votes.
If the election was contested only in southern Nigeria, Peter Obi would be the clear winner. He would easily win the SE, come second in the SW and the SS would be between him and Atiku. But the North, I give it to Atiku. In the end, I see Atiku getting over 50% of the northern votes and up to 40% of the SS votes. This would be enough for him to win the election.

JoeNL22:
Okay sir
That is what I pray for also

The truth is that this Peter Obi's movement is a strange one. No one knows what to really expect. He could come 4th or he might just win the thing. We have not seen a political movement like this before. The party has no structure, and Peter isn't pumping in money yet many Nigerians are warming up to him.

JoeNL22:
Collecting PVCs don't really matter.
Will they come out and vote?. And mind you!, they might be a sit-at-home order come election day. And who wants to be killed by unknown gun men

They came out to collect their PVC, they love Obi, and they would vote.

JoeNL22:
.
It won't work for 2 reasons.
1. There is political apathy in the SE. alot of individuals are not interested in Nigeria talkless of peter obi, that is why Atiku picked is running mate from the SS and not SE.
2. There is disunity among the upper class in the south east who thinks peter obi is just wasting his time. And some people will look at Anambra as a case study of what he has done. And alot of people don't like the few things he did there. At least Tinubu did somethings in Lagos and southwest which made him very very influential. But none has been reflected by obi. Hence. "A house that is divided can never stand"

You are wrong about Political apathy in the east. Lets company PVC collection in 5 western states (excluding Lagos) and the 5 eastern states
Western states Eastern states
Oyo 2,176,352 Abia 1,729,943
Ogun 1,694,867 Anambra 2, 071,714
Ondo 1,478,460 Enugu 1,787,537
Osun 1,266,587 Ebonyi 1,229,048
Ekiti 666,591 Imo 1,702,178

Total 7,282,857 Total 8,590,420
I did not count Lagos because it's hard to figure out what percentage of Lagos is Yoruba or Igbo. From the data, you see that SE is leading by over 1.3 million collected PVCs

Seniorwriter:
How interesting....I'm more curious about his post....how do you ask people who will win rather than whom they'll vote for.......no be juju be that? That's a suspicious statement I guess that's why @Seun wasn't down with it and in my opinion it needs clarity..
BTW my question to @Seun Osewa...please shed more light why you wanted that question asked?!

THE LABOUR OF OUR HEROES PAST(THOSE THAT MEAN(T) WELL FOR NIGERIA) SHALL NOT BE IN VAIN!....
Pinned emphasis on the word Labour

@Seniorwriter

Seun has a huge platform on Nairaland, he can do the survey on his platform. Let him create a poll and ask people who they would vote for.

Chikeluba25:
Your last comment about the GDP said alot about you. You don't Worth anybody's attention here.

Are you an online troll?

Just a month ago everyone was talking about Tinubu. The APC primary was just around the corner and Tinubu was battling to win. APC was the ruling party and the biggest party, so it made sense that everyone was focused on their primary. As for PDP, it was already clear that Wike had no chance so no one really cared.
Then Obi left PDP for the Labour party where he became the presidential flagbearer. At first, people spoke about him in whispers. Many saw him as an Igbo candidate. But gradually, we began to witness the rest of Nigeria accept him. He is now a major contender.
Its too early to know who would win but right now, its impossible to rule Obi off.

[quote author= post=63466955]My visit to industrial and commercial city today[/quote]You have 20 pics showing Upper Iweka Onitsha and another 10 pics showing an old overhead bridge in Awka. The road in Upper Iweka was built over 10 years ago and the overhead bridge is about 8 years old. What is wrong with you? Must you post?

nikky5:
It is no longer news that Nigeria is at the crossroads. The people groan under economic hardship and insecurity.

Who do we blame for this ineptitude? Is it the sitting president or APC?

However, we must be objectivity in our criticism. It's an individual who is in charge at the centre and not the Party as an entity.

APC may be a good party but with the wrong choice at the centre. But you cannot completely condemn the party.

You guys are funny. You mean a good party produced an evil president and sold him to Nigerians, not once but twice.
If APC is such a great party, why didn't one single leader from the Party oppose Buhari at any time? Why didn't any APC leader stand with the rest of Nigerians during the endsars movement?
Why should any Nigerian trust APC this time?
Answer these 3 questions, my brother.

OkoroBufo:
He is not a Northerner, he is an Arab from Mauritania. Wrong choice.

-Okoro bufo

Does he have a Nigerian passport or not?

FatherBona:
Very insensitive
2015 till now has been an absolute nightmare

Yes it has been a nightmare for Nigerian. People became poorer and hunger and insecurity spread across the land. APC was Nigeria's biggest mistake

ezegold4we:
The latest release from INEC on 30th May, 2022 put voter registration as at the time as follows:
South East- 10,574,956;
South South- 14,226,471;
South West- 17,419,669.
Total South- 42,221,096.

North Central 14,388,386;
North East- 12,025,167;
North West- 21,215,186.
Total North- 47,628,739.

Gd Total- 89,849,835.

The last update of No of INEC Registered Voters of the Igbo of the South East with PVCs are as follows:

S/E Igbo with PVCs Residents- 10,574,956;
S/E Igbo with PVCs resident in the 19 Northern States + Abuja - 12,800,226;
S/E Igbo with PVCs resident in South South- 6,125,525
S/E Igbo with PVCs resident in the South West- 6,505, 555.

Total Igbo population nationwide with PVCs is 36,006262.

One can see that the Igbo of the South-East with PVCS nationwide are the highest in voter strength and spread. Well coordinated, the Igbo nation including the Igbo of Rivers, Anioma, Akwa-Ibom, Cross River, Edo, Kogi, Benue, and the very few in Bayelsa can almost alone produce the President of Nigeria.

.

Our friends,His Excellency Senator Kwakwanso and Sen Dino Melaye who have been speaking derogatorily to the Igbo, please take note.

This is fake news. INEC never released numbers based on tribal lines.

Golan007:
Obi should know the more he attacks the likes of Kwankwaso, the less northern votes he'll win.

We should never be afraid to say the truth even if it mean we don't win.

Chikeluba25:
Now it's more clear you are an educated illiterate.

When someone starts attacking others online that's when you know he has lost the debate. Only losers resort to personal attack online.

globemoney01:
Anambra was the kidnapping capital of Nigeria under Obi. It took Obiano to rid the state of kidnappers and restore security to the state.
Read
https://www.vanguardngr.com/2014/07/anambra-defiant-abductors-200-kidnappings-n1-billion-ransom/

Wrong Anambra was never kidnapping Capital. Anambra has had zero armed robberies in Obi's last 4 years. Obi made life hell for kidnappers he brought down their buildings and made them regret doing business in the state.

Chikeluba25:
Your last comment about the GDP said alot about you. You don't Worth anybody's attention here.

When you expose their lies they begin to attack you. We know your type.

Chikeluba25:
Willie Obiano was Governor under Buhari led Federal government amidst poor GDP, Oil, and Economic meltdown yet he was able to increase Anambra GDP from N3 trillion to 4.2 trillion in a space of 5years (from 2014-2019), and as at 2020 Anambra had a GDP of $12 billion and per capita income of $1750. Obiano kept Anambra State at top of the chart in fiscal performance (even more than Obi's administration); attracted highest foreign/local investments in the entire Southeast and southsouth region. Delivered series of capital projects which are today yielding immediate returns to the state.

Fake Obiano news.

globemoney01:
Its the audacity to call Anambra of Awkuzu SARS under Obi and kidnapping capital of Nigeria, bank robberies the safest state. Anambra became the safest state under Obiano, go and ask your parents.

If Anambra was not the number 1 state in security, what number was Anambra? Do your research and compare it to other states. Google is your friend.
I believe you are old enough to carry out simple research.

globemoney01:
Ngige did more in IGR than Obi and Obiano never increased tax. He simply blocked the loopholes which Obi was looting via his uncle. A big state like Anambra should not be doing low IGR.
Obianos EFCC case is political, nothing came out of it. His passport was returned to him and he has now retired to his home abroad. Let EFCC clear Obis pandora case so we know who is the disgrace

IGR is just a small part of Governance. It's never the whole picture. Having a bigger IGR means very little.

globemoney01:
Hahaha the safest state. Hahahaha. You must be 15 years. Now I know

Now we bring facts to you and you insult. You are really childish. At least you could have made so research before disgracing yourself.

globemoney01:
Anambra never voted Obi 21/21 landslide. Even Soludo with Obiano won 19/21. Obiano didn’t win 19/21 in his first term so we know who is who

Obi was not on the ballot sheet in 2021. Anambra voted for Obi twice and then voted for Obiano in his first term because of Obi's achievements.

globemoney01:
The same Anambra people rejected Obi and his candidates twice and voted Obiano by landslide 21/21 which Obi never won all through his time. You think it’s by making noise on internet because of presidential elections.
Obiano is Anambra best and every Anambra person agrees to this except the ignorant and foolish

The same Anambra people voted for Obi twice and his candidate Obiano in 2013

globemoney01:
Your existence around nairaland also revolves around Obi lies so what’s the problem here

Under Obi, Anambra became
1. The most fiscally responsible state in the whole country.
2. The safest state in the entire country.
3. The number 1 state in education in the whole country
4. The best health sector in the southeast.
5. One of the best road networks in the entire country. 800km of completed roads

globemoney01:
Is it by bringing forieign company or by growing the state economy.
Obi was doing IGR of 8 billion monthly, Obiano did IGR of 28 billion. Foreign company my ass

Growing the state's IGR is just one small aspect. The IGR is the amount of money that goes to the government. If a governor increases tax the IGR goes up. It's no big deal. Obi saw no need to increase tax. He took the state to fiscal responsibility. Obiano remains the only Anambra governor with an EFCC case. he is a disgrace

I just hope this doesn't give you more heart attack.

2021 Economy Anambra Tops South-south, South East States In Foreign Investments In 2021
dailynewsreporters.comJun 8, 2022 8:29 AM


Anambra State is among the 12 states that foreign investments in the country in 2021. It topped all the states in the South-South and South East with a total investment of $4.7 Million in 2021 alone.

Foreign investors ignored 24 states as the value of capital importation into Nigeria fell by 30.78 percent to $6.7 billion in 2021 from $9.68 billion in 2020.

The National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) disclosed this in its latest Nigerian Capital Importation report for the four quarters of 2021.

The report looked into the value of fresh investments that flowed into the Nigerian economy in 2021.

The 24 states which failed to attract foreign investments include Adamawa, Bauchi, Bayelsa, Benue, Borno, Cross River, Ebonyi, Edo, Enugu, Gombe, Imo, Jigawa, Kaduna, Katsina, Kebbi, Kogi, Nasarawa, Niger, Ondo, Plateau, Sokoto, Taraba, Yobe and Zamfara.

Of the 24 states, ten also failed to attract foreign investments in the last three years.

These states are Bayelsa, Ebonyi, Gombe, Jigawa, Kebbi, Kogi, Plateau, Taraba, Yobe and Zamfara.

States that attracted foreign investments in 2021 include Lagos ($5.8 billion), Abuja ($833.4 million) Osun ($29.9 million), Anambra ($4.7 million), Kano ($2.55 million), Oyo ($2.0 million) and Ogun ($1.06 million).

Akwa Ibom follows with $0.74 million, Ekiti ($0.50 million), Kwara ($0.23) million and Abia ($0.01 million), while Rivers and Delta had a $1.0 million investment each in 2021.

Out of 51 countries that invested in Nigeria, the United Kingdom emerged as the top source of capital investment in 2021 with $2.19 billion.

South Africa followed by $1.05 billion in 2021; Mauritius ($690.91 million); and the United States ($677.54 million).

Daily News Reporters.

I asked you one simple question, name 1 foreign company that came to Anambra under Obiano. Name just one and put me to shame

Under Obi, Anambra became
1. The most fiscally responsible state in the whole country.
2. The safest state in the entire country.
3. The number 1 state in education in the whole country
4. The best health sector in the southeast.
5. One of the best road networks in the entire country. 800km of completed roads

Before Peter Obi, Unizik teaching hospital was the only accredited hospital in the state, when he left, 4 hospitals were accredited.
Before Peter Obi, there was no single foreign company in the state. He brought one to the state and 8 years after Obiano, it remains the only foreign company in the state.
Before Peter Obi, Anambra state was a gangster paradise. A sitting governor was kidnapped. For the entire last 4 years of Obi's rule, Anambra for the first time became the safest state in the country.
He improved Anambra's quality of education. The state became number one in the country. Obiano could not maintain that.
