Frigga13:
OBi is never a problem

Tinubu is not even a matter

My pain with Obi is him taking igbos back to 84”

Why withdraw and quit.. with out proper consultation and then limiting igbo politcal future to another long term

Then IPOB suddenly hijack of the campaign

OBi was the only candinate that is about penetrating the North after aAzikwe

Then suddenly made a complete u turn to start from scratch

That’s goofing .. but igbos will realize this after 2023 .. approaching 2027

Politcs is planned .. not spontaneous

Are you Igbo? If you are not then leave them alone.



Your shallow understanding has limited you to tribal and regional politics. Obi is coming to be a Nigerian president and not Igbo president.

Your mindset and that of Kwankwaso are same. We have moved on from that level. I am a Yoruba guy but I am voting Obi. Know it and know peace.

Lovenorth:
Buhari has almost finished his term, let's focus our attention on Tinubu/shetima presidency. those that hate Muslim Muslim ticket should go and die, we are proud of Islam and we don't hate Christians, what matters is compitance

Your last word said it all


COMPITANCE PEOPLE

This vulture griller can't be saved. His case is irredeemable

The truth is that I don't know between him and Reno who is more confused..


The two need prayers badly.

thebosstrevor1:
Fact

NIGERIA WILL BE WORSE UNDER PETER OBI

THERE WON'T BE FREEDOM OF SPEECH OR FREEDOM OF ASSOCIATION

BUT THERE WILL BE FREEDOM OF MOVEMENT ON THE ROAD ABI?

Anyone who wants to trend now will attack Obi so his voice could be heard. Reno you are doing well OBIDIENTLY

Rmain:
There must be a reason for that

Are you minding fools commenting nonsense. The lawmakers are making privusion for looting but they forgot the man in charge had controlled the nation's apex bank before and had seen it all. Some of the lawmakers ranting nonsense had never seen N1b arranged together.

thebosstrevor1:
What fraud was carried out

Can you explain

I bet he didn;t read jack before rushing to comment. That is their way, nairaland urchins

kayperry:
Have they voted yet or you don see the election result ahead ... what is difficult in gathering people with 1k in a country where people can hardly afford one meal.

1k kee you there

The beauty of it is that nobody gave them shishi and they expected no shishi rather they are spending theirs

funb01:
You can't find these praise singers on this thread

You mean vulture grillers dem?

PresidObi:
Everybody dey find way to trend

So they wont be forgotten.

Peter Obi has been helping a lot of people

To remain relevant

Helping Nigerians survive

God bless Peter Obi

My brodaaaa! Oil dey your head.



If anyone wants to trend now he will just look for Obi.


He said Wike toys with seventy something billion in Rivers but people are dying of stamped in Rivers where they went to collect free food.


The real enemies of the people are getting uncomfortable already imagine what will happen if Obi gets to Aso rock.

Eiyaaaa! This one came late.


Try next format next time.

peepydelano:
Peter Obi is not an intelligent man else he would have known better than allowing himself to be deceived . How and what on earth makes him believe he can ever win a presidential election in Nigeria. Igbos and their love for chasing clout is second to none, Peter Obi is a clown and a clout chaser. Igbos should just stick to biafra clout chasing in peace.

Premium tears

OgunLaakaye:
You are right!

Bukola Saraki did not also go into politics to enrich himself.

Rochas Okorocha, Andy Uba, Orji Uzor Kalu and Ned Nwoko.

All this people were rich and successful so they never stole from the people.

Even Patience Jonathan was a 1st lady of Bayelsa state and wife of a professor, No time she stole public funds.


If he was rich and could not transform Anambra to Dubai in 8 years, then what particular landmark or achievement, did he achieve in Anambra!

He met Anambra has a shiithole and left it as a shithole!. Even the little he could point at, erosion has washed all away

Yoruba: From restructuring to àwa l'ókàn

By Lasisi Olagunju

(Published in the Nigerian Tribune on Monday, 4 July, 2022)

A professor friend who works abroad is home-sick. He recently asked me: “I want to visit home. I am scared. What do you think? Will I be safe?” I didn't know what to tell him. Those of us at home carefully select where to go in Nigeria and when to go there. Our country is a jungle: people get killed; people get captured for ransom; people come out unhurt. Who gets what is not made known to us. Going to the farm, to the mosque, to the church, to the market is war. It is crazy. If governments exist to protect lives and property, then we can say there is none here. All pretence to governance is absent; the sole thing that is working is politics. Everyone appears to have given up. If we have stopped asking ourselves how to save this structure from collapsing, should we also stop discussing how to escape a structural collapse? While our politicians are campaigning for the next elections, their terrified people are bailing out of the country. The people already see the current storms as a certain indicator of an impending collapse. They know that roofs caving in, windows opening and slamming shut amidst cracking columns make escape too late. They are responding to the warnings and the shots. They head towards where they can see light, some through the doors, many through the windows. Check the immigration offices for the number of applicants for international passports. Ask questions at embassies and foreign missions. Go to the departure halls of our international airports. For those too poor to think of life outside here, the refuge is in prayers and desperate survival measures. What we see daily are a terror-stricken citizenry who think Nigeria may not be saved and are desperate for safety. Unfortunately, the Yoruba who have always been at the front in demanding a restructuring of Nigeria for the safety of all have dropped the elephant for the cricket of opportunism. They are singing ‘àwa l'ókan’.

The ensemble singing the 'àwa l'ókàn' song say the route they currently take is a shortcut to a restructured Nigeria. They know what they say is deception. The parallel is what a 21-year-old conman did to a mosque in Jigawa State last week. The felon approached trusting worshippers and custodians of a community mosque with an offer to rebuild and make the worship house more modern. The people thanked and embraced him as a 'progressive' and watched as he tore down their prized structure bit by bit. To their horror, their helper sold the roofing sheets, he auctioned the planks and every item of value he met in the mosque and ran away. He was arrested. They were lucky. The 'àwa l'ókàn' band leaders are already stronger than the law. No one will be able to call them to account. When they finish the turn-by-turn gang rape of Nigeria and its people, every victim will be asked to say thank you to the big man with the big gun. Already, the country is in trouble in their very hands. Their solution is to ask us to wait till next year for their deliverance service. How many will be alive then?

There is a huge wave of movement of scared, scarred souls from the north to the south. We see it every day. In the south, there is an exodus abroad. I regularly hear of south-west people selling homes and lands to push themselves out of Nigeria. Those who can afford it but are too old to run are making their children run. British-Somali poet, Warsan Shire, says “no one leaves home unless/ home is the mouth of a shark.” Those are the opening lines of his very solemn poem on what could make a people run away from home. The title of that poem is actually 'Home.' It has very many instructive lines that make it fit perfectly into the displacement happening before our very eyes.


It is not wisdom for a wise man to die every day at the backyard of a foolish man.

The àwa l'ókàn people see their 2023 journey as a moving train. They are so sure. No one should seek to stand in their way. A new president will be born and he will be their man on Saturday, 25 February, 2023. How many days away? 236 days. No one will and can stand in their way to power, they say with all certainty. They forget that the terrorists of the north have no respect for trains and movements. In Kaduna, they waylaid and shot at a train and abducted every specimen of humanity they found in it. The captives are still in captivity. That incident was a proverb about what Nigeria as it is can do to any enterprise. If and whenever Nigeria happens to the Yoruba again, it will be deja vu. No one should shout marginalization and form a NADECO. You said Nigeria should not pound your yam, you would eat it boiled, and you had your way; now, pounded yam is ready, you are holding out your plate again. I thought we all agreed that Nigeria as presently structured is forever flawed and won't work unless it is rebuilt? That we've all dropped the restructuring ball today is a repudiation of wisdom. The principles of federalism, of justice and fairness which the Yoruba trenchantly espoused this past decade are melting in the fires of one man's ambition. Sadly, the man has no national or regional pretence. He said it: his agenda is personal, his slogan is 'èmi l'ókan'; his turn is Yoruba's replacement for restructuring of Nigeria.








Authored by a fellow yoruba like you but the one wet get sense.

jrusky:
Who cares? Go tell that to his bullier supporters.

I wear one shoe

I wear one shirt

I have one watch

I have one trousers shit is a bloody scam.

Only a mad man wear one shirt one shoe one trousereverytime.

A man with over $18million Pandora and $20million in a brewery investement and yet wear one shirt , wear one trouser definitely he is a mad man, a dead beat stingy scammer.

Nonsense!!!

Why don't your My corruption fighter prosecute him and nail him?

This guy wants to collect his share of the bullion van content.


Smart guy.

Even if we see him wiping his butt with it, no problem we will still vote for Peter Obi.



Tinubu that said he does not believe in one nigeria is coming out to rule divided nigeria?



Next please?

ishit4bodyy:
Yoruba wey no fit spell agbero.
Obituarists and lies ehn

Yes your mama didn't teach you typo error. Come and reborn me

ishit4bodyy:
Okoro be proud of your tribe for once!

Anyone who does not agree wih your shallow tribal foolishness is okoro.



Go back to you bus stop and continue your agboro work

Even my siblings who are rooting for tinubu despise this man like hell.


His own foolishness stinks to heaven. Imagine selling yourself just for crumps. So all the big boys in Onitsha and Aba and all other cities in the east are chasing lizards, one of my uncles said the type of juju tinubu used for this man is from deepest part of hell.

What a man

ishit4bodyy:
Their heart is filled with generational bile passed down from the days they stopped wearing leaves.
Zoogeria will choke them next year.

It is you that has been choked. I am full Yoruba born but if you are comfortable with Nigeria the way it has been handled in the last seven years then you need to visit yabaleft.

donphilopus:
After insulting them, you'll then expect them to vote Peter Obi? You guys just harbor unnecessary hatred. No wonder someone made this statement below.

But how are you sure he is Igbo or obi supporter?

peggywebbs:
My own issue is not even who he supports. How can a pastor deliberately misinterpret the Bible to suit his narrative. How do you work for faith? The Bible clearly defines faith. Joseph did not work for faith. Guy was living his life normally until God's promise was fulfilled.

He didn't sell himself to slavery. He didn't ask portiphers wife to seduce him, neither did he tell people he was a dream interpreter. Everything happened naturally, and the way it ought to.

That's why people should not listen to all this businessmen called pastors. They will mislead you and make you seem unintelligent. Anyway, please vote wisely if you love Nigeria. Peter Obi is the right candidate, he checks all the requirements. Do not vote because of tribe, do not sell your vote. Remember that if you do, you will suffer eight more years.

One leader came and herdsmen caused havoc

If you choose wrong, we will join agberos to the mix. Imagine a Nigeria plagued with herdsmen, bokoharam, kidnappers and agberos.

If you vote wrong, ASUU will remain on strike forever, under leadership without certificate

If you vote wrong, you will pay taxes through your nose for services that will never be rendered

If you vote wrong, you will pay for expensive medical treatment and holidays abroad.

If you vote wrong, you will have N10,000 or N30,000 jobs, while your leaders earn millions.

If you vote wrong, you will be recruited in the army to plant cassava and corn to eat.

Please vote intelligently, and be Obedient.

Yahoo boys don mount alter, know this and know peace

Scammers masquerading as pastors

shortIGBOman:
But Yahaya Bello scored over 70 votes, while Ogbonanya Onu and Rochas Okorocha only got one vote. That means, Yahaya Bello is better than Okorocha and Ogbonanya Onu put together..

Onu and Rochas are not sitting governors so they have limited access to fund unlike yahaha who raped Kogi treasury without protection just because mirage.

Jashub:
The Nigerian army and her allies seriously need to stop this nonsense of using brute force in everything they're doing .

May one or two members of your family be captured and decapitated by these unknown gun men.

Karlovych:
Dear Nigerians please forgive me, after 8 years of APC support I finally asked myself what I benefited and I couldn't give a productive answer.

The 30K zombie stipend was rendered useless all thanks to inflation, I have decided to fully support Labour Party and Peter Obi to see if my life will change for good.

Even my APC hat doesn't fit my head anymore.

Lolz that man sufferred in apc trying hard to promote nonsense while his people were being killed in numbers. He even created groups where he claim to be projecting lifeless buhar.


Hunger do shege walahi.


The number one zombie of nairaland

babzo:
Almost 3 months after, this is still going on despite hundreds of blllions budgeted for security and defense?
Just 1 American citizen was kidnapped and brought from Katsina to Kogi State; US sent a war ship, a plane, helicopters and hundreds of men to rescue him.
Ordinary farmer guy, not anyone popular or connected.
Just 1?
And we cannot rescue these people after months. Atiku, Tinubu, Peter Obi all campaigning as if all is well.
And Buhari, that one doesn't even care. And most of these captives are even Muslim Northerners, not like maybe other tribes that people will say he doesn't care about.

Almost three months and the hostages are being dfed and you wonder where the criminals are buying the food from.



They are making calls with sim cards with nin and money transferred to bank accounts with BVN



Yet some muslims are still believing that the next president will still be muslim as if the one there has impacted on their lives



Go and ask el zakzaky he will tell you he prefers another muslim even if he is worse than buhari as long as he is a muslim

Pastor please go to hell with that your tribal campaign. We are voting Obi as a national candidate with pedigree and competence and not because of the Igbo in him. Don't come and divide us

AK284:
Please like what bank
The last time I checked Fidelity Bank I was told
20dollar daily limit applies too to their dollar debit card.

Bro don't bother your life going to any bank, do it from your home with your phone, barter card is all you need. When you sign up they give you two cards, naira and dollar. Transfer from your bank to naira card and from your naira card fund your dollar card, simple.


God punish the analog president that knows nothing about today's world.

endsarrrs:
The CBN has reduced the international spending limit from $100 to $20 per month, this country is a waste of young talent in Digital Skills . The $100 limit was even unbearable.


I can't run my Facebook and Google advertisements.
I speak into existence, God please let me relocate to countries under the UK or North America ASAP. Nigeria leaders have finished the youths.

Sign up with fluterwave and get a barter card and you are good to go
