OkoroBufo:
3 positive comments?.. OP already said 98% are negative, they aren't only negative, they are directly insulting him.
Moral of the story; The best moment to deal with your enemy is when he needed you most. Northerners were very patient all the while you insulted them and call them all sorts of names. As pay back, they're showing you your receipts.
While some few ibo commenters in the section were trying to talk like people who have sense & market Peter Obi, the Northerners were having non of that. Some 4 or 5 months ago, you would have replied them back with insults.
Who would have thought you would have been this civil while talking to the " almajiris".

-Okoro bufo

Lol.

You talk as if they're doing Igbos any favour by voting Obi

If they like they can clamour for a 3rd term for Sai baba, they will be the ones suffering most from abject poverty, terrorism, hunger and general societal dysfunction.

The slight ray of hope I suppose is that even if a goat becomes president in 2023 it will outperform the callous failure currently in aso rock.

Nigeria is a big theatre of absurdity and your post further reconfirms this.

A clear case of cutting one's nose to spite their face

Igbos have survived every attempt since the civil war to annihilate and subjugate them - as a matter of fact we have thrived since after 1970 (available HDI data confirms this). We will continue to thrive because we are blessed with unrivalled business acumen and are an industrious people.

Those engaged in religious and ethnic bigotry and hatred will be ultimately consumed by it - them and their offsprings!

wales4real:
I'm impressed you concluded by preaching education because that is what we need to heal this kind of your unruly behavior.

I know truth hurts. Again you're most likely too arrogant to self reflect, admit your failings and seek enlightenment/wisdom.

I've met your type plenty in Nigeria, nothing new.

I don't mind being called unruly but the facts remain undisputed.

Tareq1105:
Obi doesn't have solutions to the insecurities we're going through.

Everything he said tonight as solutions to insecurities were things or points that Seun Okinbaloye put in his mouth.

When it seems he doesn't know what to say, it was Seun Okinbaloye that asked him if he would consider State Police. It was Seun Okinbaloye that asked him after if he was thinking in the direction of bringing in foreign fighters.

Recall he said he doesn't want to say his security strategy on air. What's secret about state police or foreign fighters?

To me, he didn't impress me.

I'm sure you were so impressed by Buhari and were chanting Sai baba in 2015 and 2019.

Same way you are impressed with and campaigning for a man who has stolen so much from Lagos state in the name of Asiwaju.

Your type is only impressed with ill-gotten wealth, corruption, violence and greed

wales4real:
Merely checking the date you joined NL, I could judge how "informed and experienced" you are about Nigeria and history. Do you know about the believe we had in Buhari's promises pre-election based on his antecedents? Aburo, the big picture is more than those mouthy solutions. Is state policy supported by our constitution? I doubt. Obi did not impress me at all tonight and he needs to learn more from the veterans Atiku and Tinubu at least on how to answer political questions.

If you had any belief in Buhari then it says a lot about your thought process and decision making capabilities.

As I have said so many times and on different forums, anyone who campaigned for Buhari in 2015/2019 is much more dumb than they'd ever admit. You're also most likely someone with herd mentality who remains unenlightened.

With people like you in the tens of millions I seriously doubt that Nigeria can make any significant progress.

More reason why the country needs to declare a state of emergency on education because the system is churning out too many uncivilised and unenlightened individuals.

I rest my case.

Mrukk:
His interview tonight is very watery and uninspiring. Obi is overrated

Lmao.

Your suffering still dey warm up

Your end will be ignominious.

FreeStuffsNG:
If you know the history of Lagos and the role some indigenous Lagos families played in ensuring that non-indigenes live, work and feel safe in Lagos even before Independence and during Nigeria civil war, you won't type with such rudeness , ingratitude and pomposity.

We were raised to embrace visitors and non indigenes. That won't change because we are teaching our children same thing our forebears handed over to us. Right from 1st republic, Lagos accommodates different shade of politics but they all ensure that the interest of Lagos is protected, our history and culture is respected like we do for others.

To protect that legacy we cherish and hold dear to our hearts, we have systems in place to ensure that those badly raised and who left their villages with hatred in their hearts for their Yoruba hosts do not destroy this part of our history and culture.

Those individuals behind the hate and bigotry will not be allowed to florish in Lagos. You will vote but Lagos and Lagosians will outvote you and make sure you either abandon your rudeness, hate and bigoted ways or return to your village. No leader will be elected without our seal

Lagos is not for everyone. Lagos is not for lazy people, Lagos is not for bigots, Lagos is not for arsonists, Lagos is not for those who hate their fellow human being, Lagos is not for haters of Yoruba and Yoruba interests. If you are in any of that category and claiming that you are in Lagos, you are just wasting your time. Our land won't bless you and Lagos will still send you back home empty handed.

So if you are coming to Lagos, leave all your rudeness, hatred and bigotry you were badly raised with and enjoy a fresh rebirth in Lagos.
Lagos is for Lagosians and if you love Lagos, you will love and respect her and your hosts , their language and their interests.

Cry some more

Lagos is a cosmopolitan city that belongs to all Nigerians now.

If you like cry blood but it's the honest truth.

FreeStuffsNG:
Same Ajah that fall under under Lagos East and Senate election just days after the arson attack on Lagos hiding under endsars still gave an overwhelming landslide victory to APC.

Most of you do not know Lagos. Lagos will never allow non-indigenes choose leaders for Lagos and that is enough to tell you all where the major registration is coming from.
Democracy is a game of numbers and that is it.

Lagos can't get to Abuja and has short 1 or more among the comity of states. Non indigenes patriotic Nigerian that have integrated themselves in Lagos may have a chance at making the list of elected officials but definitely not any non indigene leaning to the ipob terrorist tendencies. It can never ever happen

All these tribal and religious bigotry and hatred online against Asiwaju Tinubu by some non indigenes is not lost on Lagosians , it just makes Lagosians more prepared just like 2019 when the indigenes will rather die than have a non indigene without any stake and integrated in Lagos take an elective post to represent them or determine who will represent Lagos.

Nobody will take Lagos from Asiwaju or Asiwaju from Lagos after his labour and sacrifice for us.

Presidential elections have always been a much tighter affair in Lagos historically.

I know your heart is filled with so much hatred and bile to see things objectively but insofar as other ethnicities live, work, do business and pay taxes in Lagos, they have every rights to choose their leaders.

You can weep and gnash your teeth as much as you like but it won't change the facts of the matter.

Lastmessenger2:
I just feel that if prenuptial is the safety net for him then he should go ahead and discuss and get it signed by the two of them. He lives in the western world and those guys work with their brain and not with their emotions,I believe he should use his brain.

Prenuptial na for who get serious money and assets to protect. That guy sounds like he managed to get married (same way most people start their married life) and doesn't have any assets to protect.

Why young nigga wey just wan start life wey never even get any assets to protect go dey sign prenup?

I wonder what type of visa you already have or are looking to apply for @ OP.

Also would like to address the issue of spouses turning into "tigers" outside the shores of naija.

Truth is everything depends on you the man. You have to honour and treat your wife the same way you'd treat yourself.

Most men are actually weak and don't understand what leadership entails in the home front. Such weaklings begin to feel inferior and cannot handle a ln ambitious highflyer as a wife. This is usually where the trouble begins...

If you're one of such weak men who can only show leadership by having the financial upper hand, then just jejely leave your wife in naija and go face the abroad hustle alone (though this may backfire ultimately as your wife could resent you for not taking her out of the shithole when you could).

Lastly as a man, when you've done your best and it's not working out, you must be willing to move on as a final resort.

A real man must be willing amd able to walk away from anything that no longer serves him or steals his peace - including a marriage.

Cheers.

Godoverevery:
Am talking about this guy in particular.

How can someone who knows he is asthmatic be smoking and be around people smoking always.

The most annoying part was his doctor warned him severally ....he was the only child to Ghanaian parents.

Isn't that madness.....what was he smoking for??

Truth is that cannabis (weed) actually cures asthma and I personally know 3 people who have been cured of the condition by moderate use of marijuana (smoking it).

I have a cousin who got mental issues and of course most of the older people in the family attribute it to weed but for someone like me I know it's one of 2 things- he was addicted to hard drugs and they got him or he had underlying mental issues that were exacerbated by his drug use.

It's a very rare occurrence for a moderate marijuana user to be even addicted (if you understand the meaning of addiction).

As with every other thing in life, moderation is key.

Nazgul:
Then marry her if that's your stand... unless you're a teenager still living under his parents roof, if you belong to that category, I would advice you to exhibit self control cos the responsibilities associated with premarital sex (pregnancy) in Buhari's Nigeria isn't something to long for as a young guy depending on his parents for survival.

If you're independent and can comfortably cater for a family, I don't see why you would choose to raise alarm over this issue when you know the right thing to do.

Marry her just because she wants sex?

Omo this your advice na die o

Tonnierichy:
That is a catholic church that is also being demolished. Try this in the North for whatever reason and you'll see Southern Christians making stupid noise, especially the ones from the 5% region. Bunch of hypocrites.

If this is an attempt to reduce or justify the persecution being faced by northern Christians then its a very feeble one.

The persecution is very real and the "stupid noise" is often an alarm raised by the affected northern Christians and their southern counterparts join them in solidarity.

Of course you seem to be one of them bigots seeing how you managed to rope in Igbos into your sense. less comment.

You will choke on your hatred in due time.

Mynd44:
He didn't lie sha.

What you've done is called cherry picking

So you think the sharing formula from Abuja is sustainable?

You think the policing structure doesn't need decentralisation?

You think having major items which can unleash states'potentials on exclusive list for the so called FG is sustainable?

Seun really picked people like him as mods for his website.

Zero depth, just vibes and herd thinking

wonder233:
I can snap my comprehensive insurance policy for you. It is my personal car, of course I do comprehensive insurance for it. Comprehensive insurance doesn't mean insurance pays for your vehicle's natural wear and tear - which is the natural consequence of rigorous usage that transportation demands.

Natural wear and tear will not eat up your profits in terms of repair costs but we both know the kind of issues that are expensive to fix in cars and those can be mostly avoided by comprehensive insurance but most people don't do it.

This is not the place for the discussion but having dabbled in that business twice, I've had the benefit of hindsight and understand that though comprehensive insurance is not the panacea to the hydra headed challenges in transportation business, it can be key to staying above water.

The full discussion is not one I'm disposed to having right now so yea...I'll take a rain check.

All the best though and hope you're doing something better now.

wunderkindkayod:
To be truthful!! Comments above are really discouraging.
I guess "OBI for president" is a movement of the Igbo and not based on qualified and competent leadership. ( Why using words like *Yoruba movement* , *Afonja bigot*... For those not supporting PO), you choose yours and I choose mine.
At least, a religion or tribe can't vote a candidate to victory alone without the supports of others.
I come in peace ( Mentions & quoting na next thing I go see now )

You're displaying bottom barrel behaviour just like the average Nigerian.

You folks cry about societal injustice, and police brutality but when it's time to do the right thing you all behave exactly the same way the criminals in power do.

No sane Nigerian will support Atiku after a Fulani man just did 8 years. Same way no sane Nigerian will support Tinubu after SW has done 16 years combined president and VP.

But people like you will never say the truth in the name of being politically savvy.

Anyway I already understood that Nigerians deserve all the terrorism, banditry, criminality and evils that befall them because unfortunately most of them are wicked and unthinking people.

Keep going with your too much sense and remember there is always enough injustice to go round - it will get to your family soon and you will weep and gnash your teeth but will not find succour.

wonder233:
Don't mind these stereotypes people are peddling. A keke driver doesn't earn shyt. A danfo driver doesn't earn zilch, an uber driver doesn't earn nothing. You just toil and toil and whatever you make goes into repairs and maintenance. I have driven uber before, my own car, sharp tokunbo. I did it diligently for 2years. I realised it was a fruitless job. The app companies just use you as slave labour, people in the larger society think you're making mad money all because of a stereotype someone said a long time ago when it newly came out. Till date, ignorant people still argue with me ontop something I personally had experience on. The sooner we realise transportation isn't one gold mine, the better for everyone cos it is making people mentally lazy, any small thing, people will go and get corolla to be doing uber, keke or okada to be driving.
Actual productivity, brain work, tangible skills are superior to these driving jobs

The mistake you might have made is not doing comprehensive insurance.

I have been burnt too by that business as an investor but now I understand better.

The only way to succeed in transportation business, and infact most businesses is making sure you have comprehensive insurance covering everything involved in that business, including you the owner.

Nuff said.

You'll never see omenka or on threads like this but throw in anything Igbo and watch them flood the thread with mockery - a clear indication of where their loyalties lie.

Ndi eriri eri.

To the OP, Nigeria has failed and the citizens have to brace for impact.

We Igbos must all rise and defend our lands from marauding Fulani terrorists who believe Nigeria belongs to them based on their misplaced jihadist ideologies.

Blackfire:
Miscreants... terrorists... invading your president office ...


Thank God Nigeria is not like those animals

You think it's Nigeria where the useless soldiers don't give a qualm about killing people?

Power belongs to the people and this is another necessary reminder.

The president and his ministers were probably living large on their commonwealth and telling them the country is broke.

People like you are wiling to eat any shit the criminals in power feed you but believe me no great country was forged from a docile citizenry.

Best believe it's now business unusual and get with the programme.

aribisala0:
Does telling Ibos not to attend "Yoruba" churches incite ethnic hatred?
In a due process regime there must be a protocol for JUDGING what amounts to "ethnic hatred incitement". You cannot decide because the comments offend you that they incite hatred.
What I saw was playing ethnic card for political reason. Some may see that as despicable but it does not in MY OPINION amount to incitement. Of course in this case Twitter is the judge and the correct approach is to complain. This petition approach amounts a form of bullying based on the notion that "we have the numbers". It is emotional and poor strategy.
It is the kind of bullet you can fire only once. The question is what will it achieve ? For Obi? It is ultimately counterproductive because Reno will not be banned for that post

Follow your signature

Don't have time for bigoted riff raffs.

Subsidywise20:
Good, so that means we should ban those Obi supporters who, when they were backing Biafra, were inciting ethnic based hatred?

Or you want us to recall the bigoted posts that some Obidients have made?

Pot, meet kettle.

How is backing Biafra inciting ethnic hatred?

As a matter of fact all what Nnamdi Kanu said about Fulani herdsmen terrorists have come true.

Same can be said for Dr Malaifa's warnings to Nigerians on what to expect in the coming years.

Of course anyone who incites ethnic hatred should be rightly banned and what the FG should have done at that time was insist that Twitter took down IPOB handles and not banning twitter as a whole.

I'm only gonna give you audience this one time cos I know where you're going with this convo as clearly shown by your linking Peter Obi to IPOB.

People like you most likely chanted sai baba like zombies in 2015 and maybe are supporting another Fulani after one just did 8 years or the bourdillon drug lord.

One fantastic thing about injustice, terrorism and hunger is that it doesn't discriminate. When it reaches your doorstep there'll be no one to cry to and then you'll be full of regret for all your clannishness...and it'll be too late.

Subsidywise20:
Good comment.

It is funny that many of the Obidient fans who were crying against Liar Moh'd for banning twitter are in essence using Liar Moh'd' s methods to ban someone they do not like because he is saying things they hate....

Obi and Buhari and Tinubu and even Atiku geng are all alike.

Obi supporters are the main reason why some of us won't vote for him. If they can restrict Reno's freedom of speech, then they can do it to anyone.

Anyone signing this petition to ban Reno should remember that if you criticised Buhari for banning twitter...yer a hypocrite.

Reno is inciting ethnic hatred and potential violence with his nauseating rhetorics.

He should be banned from twitter. This isn't 201 when y'all did same and got away with it.

People are awake now

post=114393627:
Each and any politicians that have stolen from our National treasury, and make life difficult for Nigerians, since independence, no matter the political party they are, they will never enjoy their stolen goods in good health and peace till the rest of their miserable lives.

For all the suffering people are going through in this nation, any looting and thieving politician, from past to present will not end well.

And this also goes to their supporters, nothing good will come their way in life.

But you're supporting a man who cornered and enriched himself with state resources. A former drug lord who is known to employ violence and thugs as part of his political machinery?

Joke is squarely on you!

Nayturalistic:
You guys just need to quit this personality bashing and all. It gets you all nowhere.. so this kind rally now na the type whey the same OBI never hold before? Or what’s the big deal here??..

Not to mention, I have personally attended countless numbers of rallies without getting paid or some sort. Never. So truth is not everyone gets paid to be at a rally, doesn’t matter which party or which candidate. People de like troop out con observe..

He is doing well up there obviously and should continue.. yet same as other candidates.. let no dumb ass blind supporter of OBI be telling us he is a saint, and that’s why people are turning up for him. There’s no saint anywhere and as it is, even PO get hin own for plans for mind..

You don't have the range for this conversation do you?

They posted pictures of ordinary people rallying for an ordinary man in PO and you're crying bitterly about personality bashing

Just throw shame away and openly support criminals openly buying votes.

Your suffer never start!

tamdun:
Atiku got more vote in SW compared to SE, igbos voted for atiku because he's ur only choice but now that ur son is contesting.....

You're being deliberately obtuse.

Now explain why Igbos voted OBJ and Yar'adua massively even when Ojukwu was on the ballot?

Your nonsense stinks to the high heavens!

ERockson:
Very brilliant mind. Some people hate the truth because it's bitter. If the people can deduct from pastor Poju's post that the aspirant with plan is Tinubu without pastor mentioning Tinubu. That means Tinubu is the best of all. Only IPOB reasons irrationally and attacks like stray dogs

Brilliant mind that supported Buhari and actually believed in him?

Seems you also supported the failure in aso Rock and you probably also consider yourself brilliant

I have said it time and again that anyone who ever supported Buhari is much more dumber than they'd like to admit.

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.

Lol.

Atiku is from the NE, Obi is from the SE.

Both regions haven't been president in the last 23 so they have our full support.

Now tell me if its not foolishness, ethnic chauvinism or greed, why will the SW, a region that has produced president 8 years, want another shot at it when SE and NE are yet to?

Tinubu is a greedy selfish fellow and all his supporters are idiots. If SS and SW cannot come together to support the SE, a region that has supported them to be president in the past, then let the north perpetually remain in power.

Greedy lots!

helinues:
They are serial losers who are not interested to learn a thing either from the past or present.

They will learn bitterly this time

The serial winners in the North are now living in eldorado after winning serially since 1963

Sri Lanka, Sudan and Libya will be child's play compared to what's coming to Nigeria if you people refuse to move beyond ethnic and religious chauvinism.

SarkinYarki:
Summon the intolerant cat !!! They go around insulting leaders but they are worse

People like you regard Abacha as a hero

So insulting criminals parading themselves as leaders is now a crime?

Anyway it will reach everybody.

Realist12:
No , Peter obi is not for the youth infact he committed more atrocities than the elders the youth are revolting against. The propaganda machines have ignored the Akwuzu SARS and the extra judicial killings under his watch as the governor of Anambra.
But they keep blaming Tinubu for the toll gate shooting . Are we not making the worse mistake as youths .
Tinubu is tested and trusted in and out of office has contributed to the growth of the country .
Watch Peter Obi disappear after he loses the election , someone who doesn't have a say in the east if not for Atiku choosing him as VP candidate . He has no influence just an empty noise maker.
Peter Obi is just an opportunist who is taking advantage of the end sars movement to buy the youths. I hope the youths have a rethink and not fall for this deception. Besides Obi is not aiming for the presidency this season he knows he can't win in the north. But he's just going to spoil the chances of a southern president. And Atiku might just clinch it .

You Nigerians are funny.

So godfatherism, imposing of candidates and buying votes is what you regard as influence?

You're still far behind dude

The ship has long sailed.

Jibabs2:
I was rooting for Osinbajo before the primaries but now I follow Kwankwaso. I can only vote Obi if Kwankwaso join hand with him but not because of his supporters that insult people anyhow. One of them insult me yesterday for saying I don't have Presidential candidate yet.

So because an inconsequential idiot on the Internet insulted you, you'll vex and vote Tinubu?

Talk about cutting your nose to spite your face. I see 2015 didn't teach you guys enough lesson.

Nigerians need the hardship to press una necks till like 2040 before una finally wake up and take back the country from rougues.

sisisioge:
Matter wey you for don resolve before the dude travelled. Na him guest, not yours. As he was leaving, she leaves with him.

At this point it is very dicey o. Best thing is to move from the house or keep endeavouring. Families like that are very silly! It is not enough that husband and wife are crammed in a tiny apartment, they had to feston a third party on them. And aunty 3rd party too no well. It is well jare

A one bed flat for a new couple is tiny apartment?

Nigerians never cease to amaze me

scottyoloye:
You don't know me so, I'll let you calling me a bigot slide. I only stated facts; argue against what I stated not me.

Lol.

What you gonna do internet warrior?

Look at the man in the mirror. You have done exactly what you accused that same guy of because you assumed he is Igbo for his statement.

That assumption that came to your head is what is called bigotry. I have attached the meaning of bigotry here for reference.

Do better.
