PHIPEX: Immediatly Obi asked her, "should I believe what people said about you"? Kadaria became uncomfortable. She does not want the same tag she was gleefully trying to tag on ESN.
Why should Obi condemn ESN because of unfounded allegations fling everywhere
Labour Party presidential candidate Peter Obi says he would not condemn the armed wing of Indeginous People of Biafra, Eastern Security Network (ESN), over attacks in South-East because he is not sure they are behind the attacks.
Asked if he would condemn the ESN over incessant attacks on public facilities and people in the South-East region amid agitation for Biafra Republic, Mr Obi said “no I cannot condemn. Because I’m not sure who is doing what.”
“You cannot just be condemning people. You cannot only condemn people when there is a process in which they have said this person has done this,” Mr Obi added.
The former Anambra governor disclosed this in a presidential town hall televised on Nigerian Television Authority (NTA) on Monday night.
Speaking on his plan to dialogue with agitators across the country if elected, Mr Obi said “everybody knows my position on agitation. I’ve said I will dialogue with all agitators. Everywhere in the country is full of agitation. It is the effect of leadership failure over the years. There is nothing wrong with agitation. We will dialogue with agitators.”
Eastern Nigeria has been rocked by insecurity as separatist agitations spearheaded by outlawed Independent People of Biafra (IPOB) remained rife.
The extraordinary rendition of IPOB leader Nnamdi Kanu from Kenya in June 2021 by the Buhari regime ramped up onslaughts by unknown gunmen around South-East.
The unknown gunmen continued to attack security agents and public facilities while disrupting economic and commercial activities in the region.
In September, Anambra governor Chukwuma Soludo said Igbos are behind insecurity in Anambra State, dismissing as “hoax” the notion that insecurity in the South-East is caused by “invaders”.
They keep hiding under the mobilization and popularity of local candidates to paint Tinubu as popular in places where it’s obvious no one will vote for him.
Seyi Tinubu is hustling because he knows that with his father is senility and amnesia, he (Seyi) will be the de facto president and leader of the cabal around Tinubu.
Imagine how they are shielding Tinubu now that he’s looking for our votes, and then imagine what will happen when he eventually wins.
We might not see Tinubu for one year and Seyi Tinubu will be telling spokespersons to tell Nigerians what Tinubu said.

Nyamuri: Listen to the content well he was talking about himself that he doesn’t need any office after primaries he is tired but Asiwaju didn’t agree that they must work together that’s why BAT begged elrufai not to leave the country on the stage in kaduna Few weeks ago
they cut the video half way to make it seems El-Rufai was insulting Tinubu's age

"before the primaries, I told him(tinubu) clearly that we will help u all of us, but you should know that I'm(El-Rufai) not looking for anything from you because I'm tired, alhamdulillah what I have done it's enough.. whatever you want me to do,there are those better, stronger than me, we have a lot of youths in Kaduna.. why will I be taking the slots of those who can perform better than me, I'm already old 62, approaching 63
I have reach this age I should be thankful to God and let others rule, because my strength had begin to reduce.. but there are those that don't agree with me like Asiwaju, I have been arguing with him.. Even the day before yesterday we were together arguing"
This is the same event that played out in Kaduna when Tinubu begged el-Rufai not to leave governance/Nigeria after his tenure

Nice one OP. Affix the full video to your post.
I was about to create a thread before but you did already.
What the propagandists did before was to use just few part of El-Rufai speech for their propaganda by purposely cutting out the whole video.
Yobe State Governor, Mai Mala Buni has continued to receive officials and members of the Peoples Democratic Party, (PDP), and other parties into the APC.
In a statement on Tuesday by Buni’s spokesman, Mamman Mohammed, he indicated that the latest chieftain to join the ruling APC in the State was the Tarmuwa Local Government Area PDP Chairman, Bamaina Mafawu, along with more than 500 other members.
According to the statement, prominent among the new entrants were Hassan Muhammad, Acting State secretary, Abdullahi Umar, youth leader, as well as women leader and ward leaders of the local government.
In the statement, Bamaina said the mass defection of these stalwarts has deflated PDP in Tarmuwa Local Government Area and the State in general.
“We were the strength of the party and we have all left, PDP is now non-existent and a shadow of itself in Tarmuwa”, he quoted the defectors as saying.
The decampees pledged to work for the success of the APC and its candidates.
Governor Buni assured the defectors that they will enjoy equal rights and privileges provided by the party to its members, while urging them to remain loyal to party leaders and structures.
The supporters of Peter Obi, the presidential candidate of the Labour Party have been accused of distributing packets of salt to residents of Abia State ahead of the 2023 general elections.
This has been described by analysts as a form of vote-buying, which is punishable with a fine of N500,000 or a jail term or both under the law.
This was made known by Almaigaa on Nairaland who claimed that many residents were expecting Obi to distribute grains and had vowed not to vote for him during the election because it was only salt they got.
He said, “Aswear Peter Obi too stingy. He dey share #50 Salt for Aba. Instead of him to share either Rice, Beans or any valuable thing. People just dey insult am here. Most People no gree collect. Few that collected,swear that they will never vote Peter Obi.”
He shared a picture of the packets of salt branded with the logo of Labour Party and the names of its presidential and vice-presidential candidates, Peter Obi & Yusuf Datti.
A Google reverse image search done by SaharaReporters shows that the picture was new on the internet.
SaharaReporters earlier reported how Obi’s supporters distributed food items to Kwara State residents last Wednesday.
In a viral video on Twitter, the party’s supporters were calling the names of the residents and giving them grains in a particular sequence.
It was learnt that this happened when the party’s supporters took their grassroots mobilisation and sensitisation to the rural areas of Kwara State.
Vote-buying has been at the forefront of every election in Nigeria, and SaharaReporters reported that the 2022 governorship elections in Ekiti and Osun states were no different. Interestingly, it was taken a notch higher in the governorship elections.
Donwilson88: If you are enjoying this country then go ahead and support Tinubu,Applaud Buhari and revote APC to power but if not Vote wisely;to be forewarn is to forearmed
Suffer no dey tire you.
Why can’t you vote someone that governed Lagos and made it prosperous instead of voting Obi that made Anambra poorer such that all the inhabitants are escaping the state.
QuotaSystem: The fact that most Obingo’s don’t even consider the powerful incumbency factor in their permutations, exposes how politically inexperienced, ignorant and naive they really are.
Obingo are daft and they are ignorant of grassroot politics.
President Muhammadu Buhari is currently meeting with our presidential candidate, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu and Chairman of great party, Senator Abdullahi Adamu, ahead of the formal presidential campaign flag-off later in the week.
