emonkey: Global influence? Continue to deceive yourselves . She probably doesn't even have PVC to add one vote by herself to Obi , Global influence ko, body odor ni.
You my friend are living the greatest deceit. Weeping more than the bereaved. Fake ass Hypocrites.
If them born am well make she come contest for Councillor for Anambra.
Then ..she would know she's adding yo the ethnic colouring of Peter Obi and demarketing him in the North.
Hmmm. Nairaland sha, full of fools.
How is she demarketing him by making an informed decision.
Allt the folks supporting the rest of the candidates are they not openly coming out. I don't see what your point is if not the fact that you are an absolute urchin.
Take it easy bro. You are already dying don't hasten your death with hatred and wicked envy!
Mrnairalandd: Tell or show me one sensible Igbos outside politics and i will show you millions of these cretins…
If Igbos could stand/queue behind Badluck Jonathan despite all the madness , trust me, don’t be surprised at choice of useless Peter Obi who not only failed as an ex governor but as a Liar.
Do you know that the Ijaws knew and accepted that Jonathan administration was extremely corrupt and bad except Igbos?
They are still bitter about it till today cos the corruption being perpetuated under Jonathan was managed and spearheaded by a cabinet filled with dumb Igbos.
Tinubu urchins and idiocy.
Once again a very unreasonable fellow.
Try not to die with this level of stupidity, you must be a very dull human being.
Quintopia: Yeah...First thing I thought when I saw the headline. Even a 'world esteemed writer' like her is not beyond tribalism.
Lols. You are an epic clown!
Undeserving of a reasonable reply, since you decided to exchange common sense for intentional misinformation.
You watched the video and this came to your mind, very unlikely, urchins never dissapont, she is tribalistic for supporting Obi after giving a very fine and well tabled regimentation of her reasons.After appraising the Nigerian situation and speaking to the factuality of the realities on ground.
Oloriburu people wey never support OKORO for once in their lives, when OKOROS have been doing same for decades for ya'll.
Everybody knows Igbos are many things but tribalism is never one of it. The records are there. Empirical records, stop projecting yourself unto us, unfortunately or fortunate IGBOS and SS folks are the least tribakistic people in not just Nigeria but Africa as a whole. That's an argument I would be willing to defend to a more reasonable human being.
There are only two tribes, nay three [One is the Oga patapata] that seem to have monopoly of tribalism in Nigeria and we know IGBOS are not one of them. Shikena! You may continue your propaganda sha, its what you were born for. Ofo omo!
I regret wasting my time on you and your stupid comment sha, I should have just called you the massive fool you are and moved on quickly.
Oloriburuku! The one wey your papa get, how does it help Nigeria politics.Ooh I forgot your papa award na award of stupidity, it be like say you go collect your own this year. Ofo omo!
Mama is an icon if you like don't celebrate her in Nigeria because she is IGBO, make IGBOPHOBIA dey kill una. Outside your fucking shores she is a treasure to the African continent and the world [Every contemporary book lover hears and knows the name of Chimamamda] that name brings recognition, fame and respect and guess what it is an IGBO name. Yea you can kill your Worthless self.
Chimamamda is more popular, admired, respected, and revered than than all your past Presidents put together, even our dear Incoming [Peter Obi] her influence is supreme. Keep hating on the young lady, it changes nothing.
ODELUWA has spoken her mind. And as always her wisdom is impeccable, we the good people of Nigeria will heed her advice and proceed to vote wisely.
BY your potion of foolishness on display we can already infer your candidate of choice. Kindly vote him in peace and please stop trolling our dear internationally renowned writer.
YorubaSamurai: Reason why she will never smell even Pulitzer prize not to talk of Nobel nomination till she dies
None of your lineage, bloodline, generation unborn, tribesmen/women, kinsmen, fellow IGBOPHOBIANS, will ever be able to accomplish half of what her gateman has been able to.
That jealousy and envy will kill you, worse still in your chronic poverty stricken state.
It's a grave insult to mention the person of ODELUWA in the same sentence with whoever the wretch you are. Go gulp some algea!
N3TRAL: Prince Arthur Eze wey pursue this clannish woman family commot for Anambra talk say Obidîot no go win election.
Who be Chimamanda for 9ja politics? Person wey go dey America dey follow updates for Twitter on 25th. She no fit step foot for South East because Ekpa boys dey on ground.
Abi she Sabi book , statistics or politics pass her Governor, Charles Soludo, who thinks of Obidîot as an incompetent fraud who doesn't stand a chance in a presidential election in Nigeria.
Your Worthless father and LovePeddler of a mother who sucks dick for a living, are the greatest idiots ever to have birthed a monumental waste like you.
Keep spitting against greatness that your family will never know, That's why you will always be the crust of the earth.
html14java: Why I Don't Support Tinubu for President of Nigeria
Personal reason: I don't like the choice of his Vice, he strikes me as the true face of Bokoharam.
Health reason: He is obviously struggling with his health and memories. It is not his fault that he is old, but it is his fault that he has refused to rest. I won't push him to an office that his health and age will not carry. He will end up ruling by proxy, which is not good for a country like Nigeria.
Reason based on justice: GEJ and his party were voted out of office based on incompetence, it is only fair that with the woeful failure of APC that has superseded that of PDP, the party should not be rewarded with another tenure.
Based on morals: Tinubu has consistently lied. He lied about his age, his education, and his family. They even hired people to act as bishops and priests in one of their unveiling programs. I do not trust anything he is promising. Even more, is the fact that he is an alleged drug lord and he has not denied his dealings with illegal drugs. My moral conscience won't allow me to consider him.
Religion: He is Muslim, his Vice is a Muslim and they both want to take over from a Muslim. In a country like ours with about 50% Christians, they are simply saying that the North has no Christians. And to make it more obvious, El Rufia in one of his recent interviews described the northern Christians as an "enclave".
Issue base: His major drive to be president is based on the fact that he considers the presidency as his turn (emi lo kan). Even on issues he has spoken about, none is coherent. And even if you think anyone is coherent, they don't seem to have emanated from him.
Note: I have the right to my opinion on the candidates. This is my personal opinion.
In direct message to Tinubu, Makinde says Oyo people will vote 'equity, justice, unity of Nigeria'
Oyo State Governor Seyi Makinde has declared that the people of the state will vote for a presidential candidate whose election will promote equity, justice and unity of Nigeria.
The governor spoke on Thursday when he received All Progressives Congress Presidential Candidate, Asíwájú Bola Tinubu, who paid a courtesy call on him on the sidelines of the party's campaign rally in Ibadan, the state capital.
He urged Asíwájú Tinubu to feel free to campaign in the state, saying everything has been done to ensure the event is peaceful and hitch free.
He said his administration believes in putting people first, stating that "political players will come and go, but the country will remain."
Speaking on the position of the G5, the group of governors within the People's Democratic Party at odds with the party's candidate, Makinde said it is that "if they have to choose between their individual aspiration and the unity of the country, they will choose Nigeria's unity."
He said the group monitored the APC presidential primaries that produced Asíwájú Tinubu as candidate, and commended the principled position taken by the Northern Governors.
Noting that the Northern Governors reckoned that because power must return to the South in 2023, they would support a Southern candidate.
"There has to be inclusiveness by all sections of the country in power-sharing if the country must progress.
"If the country does not survive, how can anyone aspire to be anything in that country," he said.
Tinubu thanked Governor Makinde for the warm reception,saying he came to accord him the respect that he deserves as the chief executive of the state.
"I cannot come to Oyo State to campaign for votes without visiting you to pay my respect to you as a governor, leader and an Omoluabi."
On Asiwaju's entourage during the visit were Governor Dapo Abiodun of Ogun State, former APC Interim Chairman Bisi Akande, former Ekiti governor Kayode Fayemi, APC National Woman Leader Betta Edu, Minister of Sports Sunday Dare, Senator Dayo Adeyeye and Senator Soji Akanbi among others.
After the visit, Asíwájú and the campaign train met with some traditional rulers from the South-west zone before proceeding to Mapo Hall where a mammoth crowd had waited for them to address the rally.
Tinubu Media Office, Tunde Rahman February 16, 2023.
This people everything about them is a fucking walking contradiction.
How does one mention equity, justice and unity in the same sentence, while still moving in the direct opposite direction of what these words actually mean.
Why can't these wonderful swesterners keep these words off their f0king mouths.
Where is their shame, hypocrisy, and sense of honour when they make such despicable and insincere comments.
NA wa oo, you can support your candidate, I am not against that, but can you at least do that with a bit of honour and straightforwardness. And stop making use of these damn words!
FreeStuffsNG: “I believe I am a more better-qualified candidate to rule and the best of them all. I am here to also solicit your worthy support and endorsement.”
Yes o!He is our choice because he is the best and most patriotic of them all not just because he is Yoruba.
Every tribe is well represented on his team and he does not play the primitive politics of lies, ignorance, envy, hate and bigotry.
Asiwaju Tinubu lokan! check my signature for free stuffs!
Alaaye shut up jare. Who no know your fire nairaland.
The only problem with likes of you is that you are purely evil! In 1998 and 2003 did you and your vote for Obasnjo? The Easterners you are insulting voted for a Yuroba man at the expense of their brother. Do you have conscience at all?
Story thode marauding Fulani herdsmen killers get conscience pass these folks oo.
If to say Yoruba get kind to put their mindset to reality most IGBOS for naija for don person since, just thank God they are natural cowards, of not even Fulani no reach where their heart day.
jahsharon: A former Senator under APC blaming political elites. Is he not among the thieving elites? This idiot was in ANPP, CPC, and APC until Peter Obituary came and enticed him with VP slot, now the idiot is talking about some political elites.
This guy is a fool like his principal who looted Anambra for 8 years and cannot live there, instead, he is living in Lagos
Rest. Your post is the most foolish on this platform.
Therealjosh1992: In Nigeria a lot of people are dubious is not tribe related, even you pointing finger in your small corner might be dubious, so cut the tribe nonsense.
I am sure the idiot is a certified, chronic, mud House infested, 100 naira send me back my credit 419ner, if you look closely enough.
The fool is called a fool because most of him and his fellows know not the difference between dubious and business wise. Bargain you say no, if I buy something 10 naira and sell it to you for 20 naira, and you bought it bonafide. How is that dubious.
These folks are some of the most unsmart and stupid fellows in life. You need to see them argue this issues, so called acclaimed educated folks arguing without a concrete submission only foolish talks like the one here.
Jaylord12: You are right...in all honesty I don't like buying things from Igbos but I think Obi play by a different set of rules
I hope you know you people are the most fraudulent in the world.
Nobody gives a Bleep who you like buying anything from, you sound like a big fool.
Yorubas have dealt with me in ways you can never e understand, especially when it comes to business, in my views I do not generalise that yorubas are all evil.
Hendrixky: Wait tinubu think Nigerians are fools? The world is now going to realise that South West is not really educated they way they always claimed and secondly they are more tribalistic....let me see that my friend called Kunle that will say again that they are educated...infact na better slap I go give am..this election just exposed the south west Owo massacre - No protest from APC and tinubu Lekki tollgate massacre - No protest from APC and tinubu Multiple Benue massacre - No protest from APC and tinubu Southern Kaduna massacre - No protest from APC and tinubu
ASUU strike- no protest from Apc and tinubu CBN deadline - massive protest from APC because their thieving governors are stuck with illicit cash
If you are educated and still you didn't notice this then your education is a waste
OR
APC made a monetary policy
- APC started complaining about it APC’s policy
- APC says APC has introduced this policy to stop APC from winning the election for APC
- APC went to court to stop APC’s policy
- APC politician is the CBN governor
- APC is the ruling party
- APC is the opposition party
- APC justices at Supreme Court tried to stop APC
- APC refused to obey APC’s court order.
- APC campaign slogan is Rescue mission.
- APC wants to rescue APC from APC.
- APC is currently on trial against APC.
Abeg while slapping the kain kunle give am left for him left eye too.
Olowosaudi: Hmmm. This government is confused. Where are the new notes? You wanna push back the old 200naira notes into the economy and mop them out again within sixty days. The CBN Governor ought to have been sacked for this mumbo jumbo policy, though good intention but not well executed. Smh
FreeStuffsNG: You are being politically naive The ground has just shifted right under your feet but you just do not get it
He is now telling Igbo people to now vote Tinubu. He will cite this as evidence of his support for Asiwaju Tinubu when Asiwaju Tinubu becomes the President.
What changed? It is less than 10 days to election and an astute politician like that shifts from Igbo Presidency to now telling people to choose between Tinubu and Obi.
Sir, if you understand politics, the real news is Ezeife asks Nigerians to vote Tinubu!
He chose competence, merit and national interest over unpatriotic tribal politics of hate, envy, ignorance and bigotry. For an experienced politician and former Anambra state Governor like him to make this shift, it is a big plus to Asiwaju Tinubu.
None of the past Governor of current Governor of Anambra state is standing with Mr Obi who is a former Anambra state Governor like them. From Chief Ezeife to Prof Soludo, none has endorsed Obi. That speaks volume
tamdun: Only one region is supporting this cashless nonsense but am not surprised,same people killed dora Akunyili husband,killed their house of Rep member,killed their monarch,killed husband and wife and even removed the private part of the woman,they kill their own people just to hurt buhari,am sure y'all know the people am talking about
Only one region is hell bent on continuing Buharis legacy. That's the region responsible for the owo massacre. They had to spill the blood of their fellow tribesmen in the church of God as a dying minuite tactic to ensure Tinubu secures the APC ticket. The blood of OWO Massacre victims is still crying and pointing their fingers at their brothers who slaughtered them in the bid to secure TINUBUS victory using it as a blackmail.
When they were making noise about how Buhari is punishing Tinubu to stop him from buying vote, they didn't think in this direction. They were suffering the cash and fuel scarcity in real life, but will come online to rejoice because Tinubu is going to lose the election. That delusional satisfaction and pending reward far outweigh the suffering, depression, and hunger waving across the nation. In their small and feeble mind, the pain and anguish they themselves are experiencing (including their parents in the village, their neighbors, loved ones, friends, and colleagues) is worth it so far Obi is coasting to victory.
Jungle don dey mature.
Only a naïve and inexperience mind - that doesn't know how the real world works - would think a person like Asiwaju can't access the new notes for vote buying. When people say Obi followers are dense, they're right. Very right. The mystery is that majority of his fan base are schooled but seeing how they think would make you pity the hard earned money their parents wasted sending them to school.
To every dull obidient out there who still think the naira scarcity is working in the favour of their principal, get it into your skull that aside the relative ease politicians now have to buy votes on the 25th, the apex danger of all is the possibility of the election not holding and an interim government being installed. Asiwaju tried to redirect your minds towards the things that matter, but you called him all sort of names.
INEC is already complaining of cash scarcity. What happens if they can't get cash to mobilize their ad-hoc staff? I've read some mumu takes today about how INEC doesn't need cash to carry out their responsibility. Many people need to get their brain checked. I fear for the future of this country. We have so many illiterates who only went to school but failed to be educated. Full adults in their 50s, 40s, 30s who doesn't how the world works; have no clue about the nation's electoral process; zero clue about national politics; people who have substituted social media raves with critical thinking. These are people who have passed on their genes or getting prepared to.
I'm not doomposting nor praying for this to happen: The supreme court judgement only put Nigerians into more confusion. The CBN has rendered old notes illegal, banks are rejecting it, filling stations are rejecting it, people have started to reject too. BUT there's no new cash in circulation. Nigerians are in a limbo with no where to face. The commander-in-chief is silent. CBN is not obeying court orders.
From now until election, we will see many protests and riots. I don't see how this election won't be postponed. I don't. And when this happen, print it in your brain that Jagaban is not your enemy. He voiced out, warned us of impending dangers, even gave the CBN solution.
Your enemy is Buhari and by some extension Emefiele (that one will end up in jail one way or the other).
heykims: These are the stares that care about the welfare of their citizens, others largely stand for the political gains. E no better for citizens and politicians supporting this Emefiele's abysmal naira exchange policy.
E no go better for you father mother and children.
Segunbabba: Atiku is a very wicked man, he does not want any man from the South to become the President, he is a tribal bigot that everybody should avoid.
Atiku made a very wicked statement in the North that should cause trouble in Nigeria, but people ignored him. Atiku told Northerners that a Yoruba man don't need to be president, an Igbo Man don't need to be president, that it is an Hausa man that needs to be president.
Nigeria is not a muslim country.
Buhari cannot hand over power to his fellow Fulani man after 8 Years in office, it calls for disintegration of Nigeria.
Atiku stole Igbo Presidential ticket, Igbos should start avoiding Atiku. Atiku is an enemy of progress. Atiku is number one Igbo enemy. Atiku has no respect for the South.
Any Yoruba or Igbo that is planning to vote for Atiku against Southern candidates will never know peace.
It is The Turn Of The South To Produce The President Of Nigeria.
Osidazz19: Which management skills? This one is dating a Igbo guy and she's simply saying rubbish because of that. My friend who's married to a Igbo woman is also supporting Obi even though he's not going to Nigeria to vote. He's reason for supporting Obi is simply because he thinks that It's the turn of the Igbos and if not elected that Nigeria will break. I told him that's the most asinine reason for asking me to vote for Obi. I will not vote for anyone because of threat. HELL NO. I will vote for the best candidate and that candidate is Bola Ahmed Tinubu. I have arrived in Nigeria to Vote for my candidate - Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
IfnobeGod20: You see people that always vilify Igbos that they abuse people, please what have you done now. Well, as a trained Omoluabi I won't retaliate because the Yorubaness in me is cultured. Instead of you to counter what I wrote, you went abusing me. Thank you!
