TheNiceGuy:People came out under the rain because they just like having fun abi, you people should keep deceiving yourselves...even the so called sophisticated politicians are begining to think twice about disregarding the Obi movement. I am not one of those that think Obi had won already but more work to consolidate the south South, eat into votes in the south west and middle belt and he is almost there. You guys should keep underestimating the anger a lot of those you see feel. |
IbileIfe:Struggle for third place with who exactly??...the one nobody hears about again who has votes in a few northwest states.. Una bitterness no go carry Una go anywhere. |
BabaAgba79:You warned about Buhari, but it's the same Tinubu that contributes to bring Buhari and his supporting him till now, all these hypocrites... Which one be see Lagos, when did Tinubu leave power abeg? What kind of wahala is this...is the Lagos of today the same way Tinubu left, make Una shift abeg. |
naturalman:Wike that is tactically supporting Obi for presidency, what do you think all those funny meetings are for, he will fight for PDP just for his state, anything more will be half hearted. |
femisplash:Let those who feel they are popular go organise a rally in dambisa forest, or Zamfara and Kaduna forests, since everybody is now mad in the country. |
ElSudani:For some reason you ignored the reason for the write up which is that Shettima refused to move the girls despite governments call to. You guys are Evil and you family and generation will pay the price. Please what position was Obi holding in that government you Evil liar. With your women and daughters currently being raped and your children pushed out of school by bandits, who is suffering. Silly hypocrites. |
Herdsmen:You sound so afraid and jittery, be calming down lol. |
Staphylococcus:You bigoted and evil soul, a company linked to terrorism got a contract for security and you stupid self sees nothing wrong with it... May God not let terrorist decend on your mother and sisters, maybe then you would not spew this trash. |
ABBkelvin:First off, you should know that I am deep down sympatetic to PDP, have always been from 1999 up till 2019, still am as far as state elections are concerned, so most people rooting for Obi did not just drop from nowhere or from some set of people that never used to vote. Yes, you are mostly right, yet politicians do not vote, it's people that vote...politicians just galvanise and sometimes there may be sentiments strong enough to push people to make their own decisions, we are in that situation right now I believe. I see Obi in series of meetings trying to form alliances, majorly with governors and leaders in the south, at least he is trying...we do not know about the underground meetings and all... For Jonathan most of all the numerous alliances you talked about did not do much to change his base in the south, it merely turned the north which were already biased along ethnic and religious lines more against him, then a little in the southwest. So no amount of alliance like you mention changed anything in the south east and south south and a lot of his former South West supporters. The same way you will not hear me mention Obi when it comes to northwest and northeast. Obi should focus on the middle belt and let his vice do what he can in the core north, I see a lot of things happening in plateau with a senator and other major leaders moving to LP. Like you I am also watching and observing what will happen in the months during campaign. Maybe he may form new alliances. Politicians don't vote, people vote. |
ABBkelvin:I get your point totally and understand what you mean, but one thing I will say also is, don't be so caught up with the whole, elections are not won on social media the PDP and APC push. People feel those pushing things on social media will not come out to vote, they will shock a lot of people, like I stated earlier, the dynamics have changed. As for some of the Rural people, trust me most of them are aware of what is happening and candidates being pushed, especially in places like the middle belt who have suffered severely from bandits. APC is out of it for them, I am not saying Peter Obi will win. I am saying given the right campaign strategy he will give Atiku a good fight and might, just might surprise people. Religion sadly is pushing the narrative in the middle belt, most of those rural dwellers you talk of attend mosques and churches, and for the first time in the history of the country major denominations are actually coming out to push a particular candidate and this is largely cos of Tinubu, his decision sent shivers to a lot of middle belters and core north Christians, those living in the south may not understand this. There is a morbid fear of Islamisation christians in the middle belt and core north have, justified or not, it is just there. Again this is not me saying Obi will win, let's just watch and see. |
Pandev:I said religion has always been a major factor in elections in Nigeria and that is the simple truth, do with that what you wish, most people know this. I never said everybody votes based on religion, you will always have people on both sides. As for Jonathan, a lot of propaganda played a huge role, majority of those responsible for pushing it then have come out to confess and regret their actions. The game changer was a little tilt in the southwest and middle belt, voting in most parts during the 2015 elections largely followed same pattern as 2011. To your second point, you are probably not from the north or a northern Christian so you would not understand this, the funny thing is you probably don't live in the north so I will not even argue this with you, if you know a northern Christian from the core not ask them what they feel about the Muslim Muslim ticket, and revert if your sincere. One thing some of you fail to understand is that presidential and state elections are different, same set of people can vote a party in state and vote another party in presidency, this has always happened especially in the southwest who most times vote individuals and competence as opposed to religion and ethnicity...but sadly the Muslim Muslim ticket has not done well for Tinubu, it is not an arguement...it is the fact, I never said Tinubu will loose all the southwest states, he might win but will not be a landslide, a 50% win in the southwest is a disaster for Tinubu, even 60% win is not good enough. Also I never said parties were not important, I merely stated the fact that the dynamics in this elections are not same as others. As to your point about me living in the north, I just have one question...do you live in the north?, Have you been there and spent time there?? Mark my words, core north will not live their son's and vote Tinubu, for some reason you feel the south west that is not as tribalistic will vote their son but the core north who are even more tribalistic will leave their son's and vote Tinubu, after the calamity APC has brought on their region, you are kidding yourself. Believe what you want, this elections will shock a lot of you. |
Rozross:Sex is extremely important for men, and I am talking in the context of marriage, a man will not leave a woman because of sex because there are 4 major others needs of his she might be meeting and sex is something he can get elsewhere. Don't underestimate sex in a man's life...know that early and prepare your mind. Same goes for men concerning the 5 major needs of women, and sex is not one of them |
Rozross:There are 5 major needs of men, women should understand it's not about domination or your hard work or modernity, if you don't meet this needs, your loyal man will gradually start looking outside... Just like air, food and water is to the body, it does not depend on your feelings, if you want a happy man keep this...ofcourse women have their's too, once both spouses know this, acknowledge and work towards satisfying them for each other irrespective of feeling you are 80% guaranteed of a happy home. For men : 1). Sex 2). Respect 3). Peace 4). Attractiveness. 5). Motivation Know these things, practice it and know peace....this is for married people please oooo. |
ABBkelvin:Well...I don't believe in magic that Obi will win automatically, but to say Obi is not known is wrong...you seem to forget he was on the same ticket with Atiku in the last elections... Trust me, he is known...most people in those areas like Benue are just still unsure, and will need very serious campaigns to push them to his side... None the less, your not wrong about influence Atiku will have in Benue, cos they are a PDP state at heart...overhyping his Fulani ethnicity and Obi's faith might tilt things a little towards Obi, cos for some reason Benue people hate anything Fulani... |
Pandev:Religion has always been a major factor in Nigerian elections, Tinubu just made it very obvious by igniting deep rooted fears in northern Christians, to think otherwise is ignorant. Will not even comment on your statement about Obi not winning Anambra. This elections sadly will not be along party lines in most states...a lot of people have made it seem like a battle for supremacy of faiths. Tinubu is getting nothing from the south east and south south, even his south west is highly, polarised cos of APC's failure and Tinubu's same faith ticket. Tinubu picked his ticket because he is banking on same voting pattern in the north of 2015 and 2019, I live in the north and do business there, especially the core north...don't be deceived by the APC northern governors hype, the names those guys call are Kwankwoso and Atiku.... This elections will shock a lot of people especially most analyst using historical data to project...the dynamics at play are very very complicated and so much is at stake for a lot of people. Make we dey observe. |
Darren95:This your logic is just plain silly...so according to your logic, give an armed robber leadership position cos he has experience in robbery hence will lead well... Which cool?, someone that fought criminality and all the Anambra billionaires to a standstill, they impeached him twice cos of his stance against sharing state funds, and he came back twice and completed his tenure successfully with a lot of achievements for the state. What are you people even saying, which kind country be this for Christ sake, just see the followers mindset. |
BATified2023:It would have been nice if you were actually supporting either Sowore or moghalu, but nope... It's the old drug lord. Even moghalu you mentioned endorsed him, keep crying all over the place. You go dey alright. At least he went to understudy how others solved a problem we are grappling with here, what have the other candidates done. Ode!. |
jerseyboy:Stop crying, we know you hate anything and and therefore are in sefia pains...you go dey alright las las. |
DeepThroater:Did he come back to reclaim his mandate and complete his tenure or not??, You guys like giving half truths and spreading propaganda, but you will all fail in the end. He has never claimed he can do it himself you lieing urchin. It is the people that impeach through their representatives, if he wins let anybody try impeaching him for no reason and watch how they will run out of the country...nonsense. You guys think you can intimidate anybody with the nonsense talk of impeachment. |
Thedon22:And repeating and believing a lie a thousand times over will not make it the truth, believe what you must if it makes you sleep well at night...abeg move dey go. |
Thedon22:When the likes of you came out to masturbate about him insulting Obi supporters, the same Femi came out to tackle you guys and explained he meant that...at his age he can't use the term " Obidient" and he was not insulting Obi supporters. Go back and read. Stop the spreading lies. |
Thedon22:See this liar, the same Femi kuti that came out to deny he actually said that...your propaganda and lies will take you no where in 2023. People are wiser now. |
ItsTutsi:So 2015, voting was based on ethnic sentiments and you think this election, for reasons best known to you, northerners will leave Atiku or Kwankwaso and vote Tinubu?? lol. I get you like Tinubu and it's cool . I live and do business in the north, I mean core north, my business is agro related so I interact with rural people a lot, I have never heard any of them mention Tinubu, it's either kwankwaso or Atiku so I don't know exactly where all these core northerners that will vote Tinubu are. |
Aufbauh:It's Obi you are worried about, meanwhile bandits are gang raping your mother's and sisters, preventing children from going to school... Some of you were born to suffer and never move forward in life. Pathetic. |
Diligent1:2 questions... 1. Are you a northerner? 2. Are you a northern Christian? If both answers are no, just shut up and vote you candidate, all this tribal ignorant people that have not traveled beyond their little enclaves and don't know what's happening to certain groups in other parts of the country. Hypocrites. |
muykem:This is a very silly statement to make, they were tolerant enough to support a Muslim even as Christians but because they are fighting against religious persecution which all sensible people know have been prevalent in the north for a while they are now hypocrites...it is folks like you that are hypocrites. You are probably from the southwest and have not traveled beyond your little enclave to know what is going on in other parts of the country...keep letting tribalism blind you, stupid people. Was Shettima not picked for religious reasons?...bigots |
tesppidd:I am not arguing with you silly...both River and Jigawa have been PDP states from inception, a sitting governor in PDP for 8 years that was loved by the people defected, yet the state remained a PDP state because Wike was a grassroot politician and fought to win the election. Under the watch of Lamido, Jigawa was lost to APC...that is the difference, it has not always been an APC state or strong hold like ur stupid self mentioned earlier. The silly former Jigawa governor saying the Rivers state governor has no polical weight could not hold on to his own state. That is the point I am making, all these senseless supporters. |
tesppidd:Please spare us the crap...when did APC have a strong hold in the north?, were most northern states not controlled by PDP before most of them fell to APC in 2015... Some useless northern governors like Babangida Aliyu and a few others in the north low key supported the APC, now out of no where everyone is claiming party man, but they all went silent and underground after PDP's defeat, it was the same Wike and most southern governors that almost single handedly funded the PDP and kept it standing... Jigawa has always been a PDP stronghold until 2015, stop being ignorant. Your Atiku ran away to Dubai, practically doing nothing to grow the party. Some of you just hate the truth,but there is nothing you guys can do about it. Let us see how PDP fare's in the south east and south south this election... Since you guys have decided to take those region's for granted, that they have been giving PDP block votes does not mean they can't take their votes else where if their interest will be better served there. I am from the south South and PDP will be shocked to their bones ..make them continue with their stupidity. We dey on ground. |
SU50:Oh pleas...which situation?, What he said is nothing but the truth, win your state if you have the capacity...it's as easy as that and not giving silly excuses. |
Thedon22:Your just a hateful evil bigot...keep crying, can your father's lineage achieve a quarter of what he has achieved in life...shift go one side abeg, ur inconsequential in the scheme of things. |
tesppidd:Abeg...I don't have energy for any back and forth abeg, Wike is the worst governor, abeg rest. |
Btfacts:You will not understand, Wike did well as a governor in Rivers state despite his seemingly brash nature, hence majority of Rivers people are sympathetic to him, coupled with the fact that he has succeeded in selling the idea that the PDP is undermining the importance of Rivers state and it's people and not just him as an individual. |

Mark it, Tinubu will win all south west states. Look at the recent governorship elections, APC won Ekiti with wide margin, lost Osun with about 30,000 votes there by gathering about 370,000 votes against PDP's 400,000 or thereabout. Yes, Buhari failed us, but it's not that easy to leave a party you've worked hard for especially when it's your kinsman turn.
