The need for PVC is sweeping across the southern region. It actually begun in the east. This is a fire brigade approach should have done long ago. But like the saying goes: ‘Better late than never’

Arrewa:
Good

Below are registered voters of all southeast states in 2019 general election

1.Abia - 1,793,861

2. Anambra - 2,389,332

3. Ebonyi - 1,392,931

4. Enugu - 1,935,168

5. Imo - 2,037,569

Total registered voters in southeast is 9,548,861.


Kano state has registered voters of 5,391,581.

The who south east is slightly ahead of Kano with just below 5000 registered voters!!

U guys should do more!

I can bet you that majority of those voters in Kano are Teenage voters. We all know Kano is notorious for tennage voting. If Anambra, Oyo Rivers and Even Lagos state start practicing that trash you do up there. Voter database don full be that. But don't worry, we are getting to that point. You see this PVC of a thing, it has become the new national anthem in the east. This is the first time in a long while I have seen the Igbos take election this seriously

NwaIdeato:
Whatever outcome this coming election will bring, I'll be always be proud of how Igbos have broken the political apathy curse and are now coming out enmasses to exercise their franchise, our youths have finally woken up and this will set a good precedence for a major political change in the East.

Exactly! I have always been telling you Igbos. You guys were responsible for making yourself insignificant in the political equation. You are part of the largest enthic groups in West Africa for christ sake. How come during election periods, you'll be seeing states like Ebonyi, Abia and Imo State posting 300k and 400k votes in an election, how do you want to be taken seriously in an election?
When Ebonyi and Abia start posting votes count like 700,000 to 800k votes, other regions will quite calling you a "5PERCENTER". Voter apathy is the reason those up north have the impression that they decide who leads and who doesn't. When you show them that your votes is significant enough to tilt the balance, they'll start negotiating terms with you and not be giving you conditions.
Let us all come out enmasse and get our PVCs, atleast better late than never. But this PVC awakening ought to have started months ago sha!!

airsaylongcome:


Lol! One of the biggest issues Yoruba have is the widespread assumption that all non-Yoruba southerners are Igbo. Since when did Calabar become part of the East?

To be honest, Calabar, geographically speaking is actually in the Southeastern part of Nigeria. Anambra and Imo states are considered east central. Geography wise, there’s no such thing as ‘South-south’ it’s just a geo-political zone

Our online president

At least we are still allowed to waste our votes. Even if the odds are against him, we’ll still vote him

Jmichael1:


i'm nt a supporter of any political party bt truth be told,peter obi can't defeat any candidate or apc or pdp....

We are aware of that! But we sha want to "Waste" our vote on him, since it's obvious he stands no chance

paracolaxnear1:
Baba Tinubu , your direction is what we will follow. The man that singlehandedly reformed policing in Lagos by bringing the RRS which has til today been the most equipped and best police division in the country. That is exactly why we are supporting this man

If your job is to come to nairaland and repeat that lie on every topic, tell your paymaster that you have failed. Your propanganda of repeating a lie will never turn out to be true

Sultty:
At least he sees the writing in the wall, i'm not a fan of bola tinubu but if we all demonize him for obi, I think we are doing him more good than harm and making him popular. The devil u know is far better than the angel u don't know. I'm not from Anambra neither have I lived there before so I can't say much about obi, but I've lived all my life in Lagos until like 3 years back and can say something about tinubu. I don't see any contestant across all parties good enough for Nigeria but if I should choose a fairer defect I'll choose tinubu

Someone who bodly order to two bullion vans to arrive at his residence at Burdillion, is the person you want me to entrust the treasury of the country? I rather waste my vote than vote for Tinubu. Either Obi or Osinbajo will have my votes. I more inclined to even support Obi at least, people can attest to prudent nature, you can trust him with people's wealth.

Mooh247:


If all your favours as a person also never gets reciprocated is that a good thing?!

Like if your children leaves you at old age because of some filmsy reason is that "cool" ?!

Tinubu has every right to ask for a free and fair primaries as he laboured for it under APC

Anyone who thinks Tinubu should be sidelined is evil and we shall fight such evil people


.

Now you see why it's not good to support Injustice, just the way you are happy that the Igbos are sidelined when it comes to politics, Now you are having a taste of your own medicine. That's why it ain't good to support Injustice. It has a way of bouncing back at you.

Cursed bastards

I know what you are playing at. You are trying to make it look like a enthic war. I can bet you are a yoruba guy, typing that bullshit just to give the impression that Igbos are a bunch of hateful folks. That's stale, try a new trick. Even the yorubas in various platforms do lend their support for to the fact that Peter Obi is credible.

Well there might be a point in what he said. But rest assured, that now that I have registered and soon to collect my PVC, my vote will be for Peter Obi. Even if he doesn't win, at least, I know I voted the right person. There's no harm in voting in the right person even if all the odds are starked against him.
Peter Obi has said it time and again: "He ain't desperate about becoming president, he's desperate to see Nigeria work" That's reason why I desperate to see him emerge president.

When the ritualistic backward tribe are bored, they look for something to conjure up.

Please be cautious, not all of them are. Try to be civil. We need them to lend us their support

hisgrace090:
This is why it is very hard for Nigeria to move forward.

Very good question. The answer is simple because we have lost our values, we show too much love for mundane things coupled with and enthic and religious differences. That’s why it’s difficult for us to elect good leaders. It’s only leaders that have bullion vans we love to elect. Keep it at, it’s your future, they’ve toyed with.

iCauseTrouble:
How can you have a Peter Obi in Nigeria and be talking about Atiku, Tambuwal, Wike and BAT for presidency? Are you guys under a spell?

Shouldn’t that be obvious to you that Nigeria is definitely a cursed country. We doomed to regress and continually repeat that cycle. My honest advice to you is to save up and leave this country, nothing more to add

Honestly USA is right, Nigeria should be declared a failed state. It's entire security apparatus is useless. My wish is for this shit hole country to be invaded like what Russia did to Ukraine.

blinking001:
Sometimes Nigerians should forget sentiments and be thankful for everything our darling president has done for us

Good and motorable roads........checked

Second Niger bridge......checked

Passage of petroleum industry act.....checked

Revitalization of our Airports.....checked checked

Youths empowerment through public schemes like Npower, Tradermoni etc.......checked

Stable economy..........checked

Revitalization of our rail way transport system......checked checked

Best Electricity supply ever experienced by the common man.......checked checked

No fuel station queues anymore........checked checked

And many more i can't mention here

Buhari is a good man that deserves to be worshipped by all for all the good things he has done. He's the best President this great country has ever produced. The defender of the weak and a father to the fatherless.

God bless president Buhari
God bless Nigeria.

I can sense a bit of sarcasm in this write up

Siwel25:


List the specific things he did that are verifiable and cannot be denied by his successors till date. Anambra indigenes keep running to Lagos more and more during and after his tenure so he has to show us specific things he did for us to believe he tried.

Nobody is running to Lagos. Lagos is the commercial capital of the country not Anambra. People have trouped in to Lagos since the 1980s. London is the commercial capital of the UK. People from all over the UK troupe in to the capital for better opportunities, it's the nature of things

Nebulax:


Enlightened one, oya tell us how Anambra was when Obi was the governor

Anambra was the only state in the whole of West Africa that was able to achieve more than 70% of the UN MDG goals in 2015. Obi was given an award and dubbed the ‘MDG champion’ hold on, I’ll post the links here for you shortly

TrackerXL:
My foolish brother same reason EFCC is not after Tinubu Ganduje Ibori etc. It all boils down the Pandora Criminal being a bigger criminal n fraud.

Tinubu has once been docked. it's very evident. As for Ganduje, the babaringa theif, they are waiting for him to leave that protected office and they'll nab him just like they did to Obiano in Anambra as of Ibori, the Efcc along with the UK have treated his Bleep up.
Peter Obi is yet to be invited, docked takless of being nabbed even for the "Pandora paper" you so much talked about, you know why? because they've looked at it thoroghly and found out he was blameless.

TrackerXL:
But the Pandora Criminal with his daughter Pandora account n his Azu river genocide can be president ba ? This is why I said 99.98% igbos on NL are simply mad and bigotry n excessive foolishness as ruined your miserable lives.

Very stale news. That's a very lame propanganda. Why isn't EFCC on the trail of the "Pandora Theif" as alluded. Shebi the Pandora thief has been moving around the country visiting states after state, why hasn't the Efcc done the needful, Obi is in the opposition, it should be an easy target for the Efcc to nab him if they ever suspected him.
You are pathetic. And you need a reason to live

Oh god of mercy! what is really happening. So Wike is ready to burn the entire treasury of rivers state just to pursue a utopian presidency. Like Peter Obi said during the interview in classic fm with former Channels presenter, Suleiman Aleideh. Obi said "Nigeria politicians are no longer greedy but sick." Nothing could ever be more true. This is a sickness, it's a medical condition. Brazen corruption right under the so-called "Sherrif in town"
Honestly Nigeria is lost cause. She's not worth saving. She deserves to be damned, Peter Obi please just leave Nigeria the way it is, it's not worth saving. Just relocate back the UK with your family and watch how the rot in the country consumes everyone.

I repeat "Nigeria is damned and not worth saving" Make everybody bear e papa name

chigator2:


Thank God the Police Boss was informed, even after the Pandora incident, EFCC invited him.

Now in both of these incidents and others, have the government agencies been able make a case against him ?
He stated his reason for doing so and it was for a valid purpose.

He is not a Theif

Please why bother explaining to those dimwit bastards, they aint worth the expalnation, Let them carry on with the stale propanganda. Even the Police and EFCC have long cleared the matter. If he was guilty, why hasn't EFCC nab him just like they nabbed his successor, Obiano. They have nothing against him other than he's from the southeast, pathetic fools

Reality3080:
can I see a direct quote or link from UN?

Hold on, I’ll give you that. Here are some of the links that proves my point:
https://newsexpressngr.com/news/7549-UN-commends-Nigeria-for-MDGs-implementation-Peter-Obi-declared-MDGs-Nigerian-champion
https://newsrangers.com/peter-obi-tasks-african-leaders-on-sdgs-implementation/

In the picture below, Peter Obi was with Patricia Espinosa and Mitchell Tommy, both directors of different units within the UN.
So brother, my support for Peter Obi ain't necessary because he's Igbo. Peter Obi is one who can set an agenda and see through it painstakingly. that's why Nigerians seem to have a liking for him.

Siwel25:


Someone who was visited this year by the US ambassador? Someone with American Citizenship? How on earth can U ask what Tinubu did. There's a thread on Twitter where thousands of beneficiaries of his free WAEC and free Childbirth schemes are praying for him.

Tinubu didn't revolutionise LAWMA, LASTMA, LIRS? He didn't increase IGR by 1000%?

Tinubu didn't sign the BRT deal? He didn't start the project of the Lekki Free trade zone? He didn't launch Rapid Response Squad which is the finest unit in Nigeria?

Are you Kidding me? Tinubu revolutionize LAWMA, LIRS? Very laughable. If they have given the achievement to Fashola I could have agreed with you. Do you know how many students Obi has empowered and still empowering? Obi’s government is the only government that was able meet up with 80% of all of UN’s MDGs goals in the whole of West Africa. That shows a serious government that is desirous of lifting people out of poverty and imparting education in their lives. Peter Obi spoke on the UNESCO head office on how they achieved that feat, which international agency gave Tinubu any award for transforming Lagos? that’s if at all he did. Lagos is considered a huge disorganized cosmopolitan area when compared with her sister counterparts all over the world that considered as ‘mega-cities’ due to their population and cosmopolitan nature , And you have the effrontery to tell us Tinubu transformed Lagos, don’t repeat that trash anywhere. The only thing attractive about the Lagos is the population which is a huge market to the business community, other than that, Lagos leaves so much to be desired. Lagos is highly deficit in infrastructure. She doesn’t even have the infrastructure that can comfortably accommodate 8million inhabitants and you’re saying Tinubu transformed Lagos
Peter Obi is campaigning on the back of performance, he m adopted the MDG goals and was able to achieve 80% of the set target. That shows a leader that sets his sight on something and achieves it. That’s why he’s celebrated by the international community I can show you links to prove that he was did a champion of UN MDGs

Reality3080:
who wants your pity?
Did lagosians suffer?
Are lagosians suffering?

If Lagos inhabitants are suffering people won’t b trooping to Lagos,Lagos is d economic capital of Nigeria n d tinubu u hate made it so

U igbos hate him but rush to d same Lagos he built


Y is everyone not rushing to anambra?

For your information, Tinubu never made it so. Stop spreading that fucking lie and propaganda. Lagos has always drawn people from all over Nigeria and west Africa even during the military days before the advent of democracy in 1999. The only advantage Lagos has against other state is her population which is a market. Lagos has always been a market for business people even during the 1950s hence the attraction it gets. It was never about Tinubu’s ingenuity that made Lagos attractive. It could have been Calabar that would have been the economic magnet of the country but sadly she only enjoyed that position for two years before the British moved it to Lagos
Stop giving us trash of how Tinubu transformed Lagos. He didn’t. Even Lagos is far worse when compared to other cities that are considered ‘mega status’ . She’s the very least and that’s the truth. The infrastructure in Lagos can’t even cater for a population of 8million people talk less about the population of 30 million people and you said Tinubu transformed Lagos, how? Or abi you should say Lagos transformed him by making him the richest landlord in Africa. The taxes we Lagosian pay is barely sufficient to cater for the infrastructure and on top of that Tinubu is still having a percentage in our taxes we paid because of what, Baba don’t ever mention it here again that Tinubu transformed Lagos. You think Lagos starts in VI and ends in Marwa bus stop

Reality3080:
without sentiment n according to records of previous offices held

Tinubu beats Peter obi hands down in all aspect ranging from
Security
Infrastructure
Governor
Finance
Igr
Agriculture
Health
Social amenities


I will prefer tinubu a million times over Peter obi


Please let’s avoid insult n face reality

Tell me 5 legacies of Peter obi as governor that is still visible till date n I will furnish u with that of tinubu

Note - legacies with proofs n no insult

Leggo

Peter Obi’s administration is the only one that met the UN MDGs goal in the whole of Nigeria, even Lagos you couldn’t meet the MDG goals they all signed since 2008. UN has dubbed Peter Obi an ‘MDG champion’ something Tinubu with all the resources and wealth couldn’t do. Are you aware that Anambra has a highly educated population? It’s because of Peter Obi’s passion to education investment and you should know that Anambra has one of the least poverty index rates, NBS and other reputable agencies can attest to that. Why do you think he won an award at the UN. He was the only governor that streamlined his policy with that the UN MDGs goals.

Mooh247:



Bola Ahmed Tinubu

Mention any sector of governance and am here for you sir

Tell what Tinubu did, apart from using his fraudulent company to pocket 10% of Lagos tax. Hope you know he still wanted by the law enforcement agency in America for pushing drugs in his hay days. This is someone who we all saw loaded two bullion vans filled with dollars to share to his Lagos delegates. And you wanna trust the treasury of nation with that man who still has a case with EFCC.
Peter Obi and probably Donald Duke are the only two Nigerian politicians EFCC has never invited for questioning since they left government

Honestly, I admire this man’s passion. He seems to genuinely want a Nigeria that is reformed. But sadly, Nigeria is cursed never to make real progress.

Is it the same man that prays for unity of this country... Calling a whole region brainwashed rats and nonentities. You have been pretending all these while. You just show your true colour.

It should be obvious to you that tha Dead Vulture griller abi na Mannabbqgrill is a worthless idiot. His darling daddy he exalted to the heaven has heavily disappointed him, he was always typing like he was a detribalised Nigerian who wanted the best, now it’s obvious to all, he was just another enthic joingist. A pathetic one at that

seunmsg:


Enough of the lies please. Tell us exactly what he did. Tell us why Anambra folks are still poor like the rest of Nigerians in other states. Anybody that claims he has what it takes to safe us from poverty and protect the future of our children should be able to present proof of our he did something similar when he was governor.

Anambra is least poverty afflicted state after Osun. United Nations (UN) has awarded Anambra state as the only state that met the UN MDG goals in 2015. Go to the UN and find out. Peter Obi was awarded with a medal and nicknamed ‘MDG Africa Champion’. Peter Obi mapped his policies around meeting the MDG goals that the Federal government signed since 2008. That’s part of the reason Peter Obi is popular and accepted by international institutions

IgbalodeRaymond:
one thing I've come to realize is that Nigeria will never get it right in leadership.
not in this generation, probably next generation will be much different but non of us will be alive by then.
but as far as this generation is concerned, Nigeria is doomed.
the level of bigotry in this country will never allow it to progress.
it'll be a repeated something which is get it wrong, wail for another 8 years repeat...
Nigeria is a failed country.
no two ways about it.
if you have money the best gift you can gift to your children is nothing but a dual citizenship to any sane country in Europe or America

Exactly! I’m happy people are seeing it the way it is. We’ll never get it right. First off, the system was designed to fail and the other part is that enthicity and bigotry has made it even a lot harder to get the people that will refix this broken system. My brother the best advice to give yourself is to ‘Japa’ like you alluded
