Kwankwaso seems not too happy with the whole arrangement.....he might be regretting his action of joining NDC.....just look at him well....even his smile is too dry ......no chemistry BTW him and Obi.....(body language)
Even no biology and physic sef.....

He overpriced himself and missed the opportunity to be part of APC. Is it not better for him to be a senator or minister under APC and position himself for 2031. He was putting up unrealistic demands to APC and they bluffed him. Immediately the governor defected he became stranded and began to move to places that he originally never wanted to just to be relevant. He's not enjoying it unlike Obi that is excited.

LagosOrigin:
Which primary ?

Sorry to disappoint you , NDC presidential ticket has been zoned to the south .

To you guys all that matter is contest for presidency. How can you pair the two. Asking an elephant to be assistant to a goat. One will dwarf the other. If they win election how can someone bigger than him be a loyal deputy? Let the campaign start and we want to see how kwankwaso will be going up and down in the north campaigning for Obi.

AlbertNewton:
Was his name and picture on the ballot in 2023 when he polled over 6M votes (and we are sure he had far more than that but for rigging) ?
Before election, I expect that almost everyone (including those in villages) would have become familiarised with NDC as Obi's party.
And anyone who doesn't know about NDC then probably wouldn't also know what Obi looks like or who he is. But the number of such extreme illiterates would be very small.

You people and bandying 2023 figures. The dynamics are different. The endsars effect doesn't exist. The Emefeli factor is no longer in the picture. Besides the element of surprise doesn't exist for him anymore. The main actors overlooked him and he sprang a surprise. This time they are giving him close marking.

He didn't contest against incumbent president. There was only one south east governor then but now you have more. His present party is not widely spread. Where are the governors that will sponsor his campaign and election?

He has fully annoyed the west through the rascallity of the obedients and there are political tools to campaign against him up north. He has been fully unmasked and hasn't got the old level of trust.

Overall your Obi will not get half of the votes that he got in 2023. If he gets anything near it, it will be Kano votes which are not spread. Prepare your mind now and don't come and disturb with "we won the election" without proof. I have given all the facts to you.

AlbertNewton:
We are not selling NDC, we are selling Peter Obi.
And selling Peter Obi doesn't require much marketing.

You don't know politics. Will Peter Obi's name and picture be on the ballot paper?

AlbertNewton:
They can certainly win.
I believe we have enough sensible people in Nigeria to make them win. We only need to ensure we come out to vote on election day.

How can you sell NDC to the grassroots? They will ask nd...whaaat

ratcock:
Obi made the best decision by defecting from the crumbling ADC which Tinubu’s agents infiltrated.
No doubt he will emerge as the NDC presidential candidate. I hope he won’t make the same mistakes he did in 2023 whereby he was too soft for Tinubu and the Apc.

Too soft ke for Tinubu and APC? Who is Obi?

AMINDA:
Have you seen the stretch from Kaduna to Kano done by Julius Berger under Buhari? Buttery smooth. Tinubu revoked the contract and handed it to a generator importing company. The quality and slow pace of the so-called concrete technology now leaves much to be desired.

You are now praising Buhari. If it's good it's Buhari but if Buhari did it wrong then it's Tinubu and APC because Tinubu hung Buhari on Nigeria. Can you see hypocrisy?

Dreambeat:
APshit data boys are now opening threads looking for faults where there are non

Face the truth and stop calling APC. These are so-called obedients fighting. Things are unmasking. What we have always said but it's countered is now being unmasked by the actors.

These revelations shouldn't have been any issues because we know that Nigerian politics and politicians are all dirty. But Obi and his followers have always given the impression that all others are dirty and he's the only saint. We know that he's masked and he's gradually being unmasked.

First calling a group that he dinned and wined with structure of Criminality. Later going back to become one of the criminals. Now rushing out to begin to claim saint again. Again telling us that he's not desperate to be president but at the same time jumping from party to party in search of free ticket. Nigerians are not fools. We are not unintelligent.

Our youths should emulate this. What makes one happy about this is that he not one of the foreign manufactured. He's full African manufactured and decided to transfer his knowledge to fellow citizens.

PDPdestroyer:
Why am I not surprised? Most Obidients I know are a bunch of hungry, jobless and poverty-stricken people who have been brainwashed and sold a lie that a certain man who couldn’t make any meaningful impact in his state for 8 years as governor, will somehow make their crooked lives meaningful.
I was shocked beyond words when a certain school dropout who is an Obidient told me they promised him Obi will get him a well-paying job in a multinational oil company once he becomes president

The same format for IPOB members. That's why they almost died for that dropout that has been locked up in sokoto prison.

kiddaz:
It's not about "wedding" it's about the life after the ceremony. You think life na Zeb Ejiro productions? Keep playing

Keep giving excuses and lamenting. It's the usual thing with some people. Roll up your sleeves and face life. That's the mark of champions.

Alternative suggestion: keep lamenting until there is free gold to pick on the streets which will never be.

franchasng:
God bless the White lady, we need more of her type to come help our wonderful Nigerian guys cos APC have finished Nigeria, I wonder how single Nigerian guys today will be able to afford to get married and start up a healthy family with this Tinubu's destroyed economy

I attended a young man's wedding last Saturday. In my church sometimes we wed three in one Saturday. Keep lamenting.

Cum4me:
This our politicians are evildoers. Tinubu has the capacity to give Nigerians steady electricity. But they keep looting the nation with silly excuses. Dangote please try your best we need steady electricity

Are you ready to pay? You like subsidized life and things. Dangote will not hear this

Cast it on stone: Jona will not contest. Obi will not win. Infact he will perform poorer than 2023.

Transfer deadline is Saturday 9th. If your name is not on the register on the above date you can't vote or be voted for at the congresses.
Membership register submission is Sunday 10th or opening of business on Monday.

NDC must conduct ward, council, state congresses all over the country and national convention latest 30th. Only 20 days from Sunday.

People are already in court challenging NDC registration. Their registration came through a court order.

We are watching. We hope that this NDC thing will not be like adc's celebration over winning status quo ante bellum case.

Freshtruth:
This man is wise obi wave is coming back

NDC is ash........ come and do your own and go.

saintokwuluora:
Parasite, NDC should ignore him also. He rode on the Glory of Peter Obi to House of Reps and defected to APC and after they have shown him shege, he is trying to attach himself again to Peter Obi for an encore...once beaten twice shy. He can't be trusted.

They will give him na. If you don't want competition then go to NDC. It's a party of rejects. They will beg you to come and take. After the election which I'm sure that they will not win everyone will go their way. It's a SPV. Just like ash... do your own and go.

dynicks:
Obi and Kwankwaso left same time;same day ...yet obi is the one they would always want to speak about just to attain orgasm...

Obi talks too much and portrays himself as angel and all knowing. Kwankwaso even though more educated, older and more exposed talks less. Again how many parties has kwankwaso moved to within a short while?

walosky:
Which one be " I sabi pass you behaviour " if you no sabi na dem go teach you for they not as$ lickers . Yorubas be having complex over igbos, why?

No sir. I'm a landlord and an igbo. After a lot of sad experiences I have issued instructions to my lawyer that I don't want any igbo man in my house. If he has to be he must be well educated and hold a corporate job.

No trader. No abi business man. I lived in part of Lagos that is Igbo dominated. I saw first hand the behaviour. I'm now a landlord and I have my direct experience. That is not to say all my people are bad tenants but majority are. The traders and the so-called businessmen are the worst. My lawyer is evicting one. Her notice expires 31st May.

PDPdestroyer:
That you all had to join him, then wait till this time to realize what everyone with a functioning brain knew from the onset makes me wonder how most of these wandering politicians got to where they are in their careers

No mind them..... NDC nobi Dickson's own? Why did you join?

Oyindamolah:
If an intern becomes valuable enough to leave after learning from you, that doesn’t automatically mean the investment was wasted. it means you helped build talent. The bigger question is: why do people feel the need to leave so quickly?

In many cases, people leave because of poor pay, no growth path, toxic work culture, or feeling undervalued. And if someone is threatening you after gaining experience, that’s a separate character issue not a reason to stop developing people entirely.

Also, bonding employees for years can backfire. Most talented people won’t agree to being tied down unless there’s a strong incentive attached (sponsorship, certifications, relocation support, etc.). Even then, forcing retention rarely builds loyalty.

I think this approach is better:
- Hire people with good character and willingness to learn
- Create clear expectations from day one
- Pay fairly as they grow
- Build systems so your business doesn’t depend on one person
- Make your workplace good enough that people want to stay

Because the real risk isn’t training people and losing them. It’s refusing to train people and being stuck with mediocre talent forever.

I will rather hire good expertise, pay well and have instant value added than gamble with the youths of today that wants to live big overnight.

Was extorted #20k yesterday from government agberos that call themselves task force accusing me of driving one way when there is no road sign that the road is not dual carriage. I tire ooo.

[quote author=Tolexander post=139321710][/quote]You want me to train an intern, upgrade his skills and boom he leaves or starts to threaten. Then I will start all over. Will he allow me to bond him for specific number of years?

SpencerForbes:
I completely disagree with him. Having worked within the corporate system, I’ve realized that many Nigerian employers don’t actually like hiring Nigerians. Why? Because they want maximum skills for minimum pay.
They will hire a foreigner and pay him 350k–400k, but hire a Nigerian for the same role and pay 250k. The Nigerian might even be more skillful, but they value the expat more simply because of where he’s from.

Look at the minimum wage—it's 70k. Yet, I can bet that many employers pay their drivers and security far less than that. But imagine if it were a foreign firm or individual safeguarding their property; they wouldn’t blink at paying 200k.

The moment we start to value our own people, maybe "yahoo" and other social vices will reduce. In this country, we love to overwork our own and overvalue others. It’s discouraging for the youth. Other countries prioritize their citizens, but here, we do the exact opposite.

Your emphasis is on reward and pay alone. You didn't challenge what he said concerning readiness, skill, attitude and desire for knowledge. The hard truth is that there are so much poor attitude and high expectations issues with our people. If you have ever interviewed our graduates you know that there are gaps. No employer will treat a valuable employee poorly.

keemsleek:
Apkabio talks too much. He should learn to talk less.beven Tinubu hardly talk

But Obi talks too much and you clap.

LagosOrigin:
Peter Obi has been nicknamed the political godfather of Nigerian politics

Anywhere he goes, millions of Nigerians go with him without collecting shishi

Peter Obi, I tap from your grace walahi

You're too much sir..

You guys over hype this Obi. The people defecting are not essentially doing it as Obi's followers.

APC has closed recruitment. So no chance.
PDP is neither there nor here.
ADC is shaky shaky.
Therefore no politician that is serious with contesting 2027 election that will not take action. The transfer season has days left.

Therefore the likely destinations for transfers from ADC will either be LP or NDC. It has nothing to do with Obi.

HacheNoire:
🤣🤣🤣🤣

Confusion has set into our new coalition.

They will say na Tinubu

Ofunaofu:
I was expecting pictures of Mr. Rick Swart with Tinubu....are they unavailable?

He should be meeting PBAT's ministers but certainly not PBAT. There are levels. This is Obi's level.

Mrexcell:
Nigeria is currently playing tinibu's brand of democracy the shame should actually be on tinibu nigerians never experienced this type of politics during the years of the pdp.

OBJ did everything to destroy Tinubu's party including his government but the man stood his ground.

It's not Tinubu's fault. There are loopholes in parties here and there. Nigerians particularly politicians don't like doing things properly. There are cracks in all major parties APC inclusive. It's only when light is beamed on the parties that the cracks become evident.

The personality of Tinubu shields the cracks in APC. Under Buhari they were evident. Even if Tinubu uses the cracks to his advantage which anybody will do but if the cracks are not there he will see nothing to use.

Macphenson:
What is this madness with Tinubu? A Refinery you have wasted billions in TAM, yet nothing came out of it, now you are embarking on this madness again.

Tinubu is just here to wreck this country.

Was it Tinubu that spent the money on TAM? Everything is Tinubu in your brain.

No shame at all. Within how many days? We have never had it this bad in Nigerian politics.

Bentacur007:
Yes because he doesn’t want to bribe anyone to get the slot. That’s his policy

Not so. You guys say all the time that his followership is organic then let him galvanize them to win his primaries. Lazy Obi....

Bentacur007:
Bro you pretend that you are not in Nigeria
Peter Obi believes that for him to win primaries that he should not lobby members to pick him as the candidate.. Don’t blame him that has been his policy.

Then if he so much price himself then he should set up his own party. You can't have a party made up of people with ambitions and funded by people and you believe that you can't lobby people but people should lobby you.

He thought that what he got in LP he can get it again. Now he has hopped to NDC. After the elections in 2027 will he stay in NDC to build it?
