Stop making excuses for Nigerian politicians. Peter Obi is currently the best among the set of candidates contesting in this election, but it doesn't make him a saint. He is also guilty of alot of what the other politicians do. I am only rooting for him to win because he is relatively better than the other two hardened criminals, but that does not mean I won't call out his own flaws to do better. This was how Buhari was projected as a Saint, even when we knew fully well his kids were in the UK as at then. The same excuse by supporters was "the children are not depending on Nigerian money". This absolute blind loyalty thing is what is killing Nigeria. These people are not saints, let them know, so that they do better. Instead of making excuses for them

GoooodHardDick:
Grow up son, peter Obi son doesn't depend on his father wealth to milk Nigeria dry unlike Tinubu son who even flew in a private jet to Kano Abi Kaduna few days ago

Peter Obi son too dey the UK

GoooodHardDick:
Nigerians wake up and let's kick these old ancestors out of their come 2023!!

A vote for peter Obi is a vote for better Nigeria! The choice is yours! Vote wisely

This is quite realistic....

What has attending a Federal Government College got to do with your hatred for a tribe? That is what all hate mongers say "my cousin's aunty's househelp has an ibo friend", "my mother's brother's step son's neighbour is ibo", etc etc.

buckeyemedia:
I know the truth will be bitter to the oblivious Obidients, Why will I hate Igbos when I attended Federal Government College, New Haven Enugu for my junior secondary school?

Nonsense ignoramus.

Oh keep shut with this meaningless cliché you keep rehashing. A party is in power and things have gown down the drain so abysmally and you feel duty bound to defend, all because you're a party man? A tribal man, a religious man? People like you are the vermin of the earth[quote author= post=118569334]A better Nigeria all around is all we want at [b][/b] [/quote]

Fake news

So, why was the man acquitted??
Nigerian law trying to be smart by a half. You leave who rape, dey convict who no rape.

na real "susidized"! .
Dumbo, I believe the word you're looking for is "subjudice".... But you can't know that because the same people that deprived you quality education are the same people you're passionately defending. I have another term for you "Stockholm Syndrome", go look it up

ALTERNATEID:
If it’s in court, why not take all these groundbreaking evidence to court. Why the desperation for social media judgement? Can Tinubu be disqualified on Nairaland? Are you even aware it’s contempt of court to be discussing details of a matter that is subsidized?

Go wash plate for your mummy small pikin. When I was your age, I no dey chook mouth when elders dey talk

Jack500:
Don't worry! You will get sense in February, 2 months to go. If you really believe Atiku will win the north overmighly, then you are just being born yesterday.

Buhari registered CPC in 2010, and the following year, CPC came overall second in the presidential elections. Where traditionally, PDP and ANPP had governors, senators, etc. Why? Because of Buhari's cult following in the north.
Obi is having same following right now in the southeast and southsouth. You guys should discard this "traditionally, xyz has always voted for abc theory". People are not robots, they vote according to what they want. Even the north with a large illiterate population, knew that CPC was the name in 2011, let alone the south. Obi will poll massively in these areas of southeast and southsouth and parts of the Christian north who identify with him as the only Christian front runner among the top contenders.
Tinubu will poll well in the southwest, while Atiku will sweep the core north

Goalgetter23:
You made some points, but don't forget that ever since 1999, the East & SS have been PDP strongholds in the south. As of today, PDP has more Governors in the South than in the North. APC have more Governors & controls more states in the North, than in the South. So, Obi's candidature is more of a spoiler for PDP in the South, especially in the East & SS, that's why Gov. Soludo said PO is simply making Asiwaju Tinubu's victory easier.

Yesterday, I was telling my wife World cup is starting soon. I told her how WE played Argentina in 1994. I was just 11 years old in 1994, I wasn't part of super eagles. The "WE" pronoun here refers to my identifying as a Nigerian.
As a Man U fan, I can tell you WE hired Alex Fergusson in1986, when I was just 3years old, shebi that means I sat on the board that hired him abi?
Urchins, make una dey try get sense, haba!

Moh247:



Obi claim Peter Odili was his senior boy In school

*How exactly is a 6 year old in Secondary school, to have a senior boy as Peter Obi in senior class form 5 or SS3?!

* He also used the pronoun "We couldn't have played"

Question remains how does a 6 years old in primary knows Odili a senior boy and graduating student of SS3 to use we as a personal pronoun

This is why SouthEast have ridiculous Governors since 1999, from drunkard like Obiano, to Statue molder like Okorocha, to Hopeless Uzodingba, to Kerosene Ikpeazu, to chronic lair Obeer

Nobody would allow such charlatans near Aso Rock

.

You're banking on Tinubu to win yoruba states because his people will vote for him, and Obi to win southeast because his people will also vote for him, but not Atiku to win hausa/Fulani states? Oh! So when it comes to Atiku's people voting for him, they will suddenly rate party above tribe abi? Northerners of all people! .
All these children that will hide and take their parents phone to browse. What do you know about traditional votes?

Jack500:
Sharap! Tinubu and obi are not canceling each other out, because their stronghold has always be different, as a matter of fact obi contesting is good for Tinubu because he is taking away the traditional vote of PDP in the south.

To oust a ruling party at the polls, opposition parties need to come together. All these fragmentation is hurting you guys. I listen to Adewole, the SDP presidential candidate, dude knows he stands no chance, but insists on going on the jamboree.
This is the curse of the south, no unity. When the north wants power, they band together, look at how Buhari was installed in 2015 - even the northerners in PDP worked for him, even the inec chairman worked for him, you go to the north, you won't see any mushroom opposition party trying to make a statement, everyone aligned.
But down south, y'all are fooling yourselves.
Tinubu and Obi are cancelling each other out, while the north are harnessing all their votes. Last minute, Kwakwanso will direct all his supporters to vote Atiku, just like what Tambuwal did. And with a simple majority, he will win, and boom, you have another northerner for 8 years. And the cycle repeats itself.

Urchins, your God has spoken.
Can you now label him an IPOB supporter? Because this was exactly the same thing Obi said and you guys went beserk

You gave yourself away with the number of times you've mentioned "igbo". You clearly hate the tribe, you're just hiding in the shadows with this dust you're yarning about ibo president coming from Apga or PDP.
Your hate for the tribe is self-consuming. It is why things will be so difficult in the country, but you won't mind it remaining so or getting worse because you so hate a tribe.

buckeyemedia:
What hatred, I am only stating the fact, when push comes to shove, no one is voting for any Labor Party Peter Obi, Igbo President must come from Pdp or Apga, Pandora Pete is wasting his time.

Maybe Governor Obaseki also has hatred for Igbos by saying Peter Obi is wasting his time?

A bunch of delusional voyeurs and pathetic misfits will converge on a place to try to prove to a world that don't care that they are squandering money.
Africans and banality, the black man is a slave to fun seeking.

So, let me get you straight: Benue people will troop out on presidential election day to vote APC?
You're more delusional than I even thought.
When it comes to your candidate, you suddenly rely on "party structures" and "historical data" and conveniently toss aside the reality on ground of what the actual people on the ground are going through.
Benue that federal backed fulani militias have slaughtered like chicken will troop out and vote another APC federal govt?
Delusion is a bad thing sha

donphilopus:
When you Obidense mention north central, I often wonder which of the north central you guys are referring to.

Can Obi get 15% in Kwara, Kogi and Niger (all of which Tinubu would win)? Aside Keffi in Nasarawa, which other local govt can Obi boast of 20% votes in Nasarawa? Atiku narrowly defeated Buhari in Benue in 2019 but now his votes would be divided. Obi would take some parts while Tinubu may likely lose some religious bigots' votes. But at the end he would win Benue State.

The only place Obi may likely win in the north central is FCT. Plateau isn't even sure for him. So when next you say north central is in the bag for Obi, you should let us know the states he would win there.

APC with 5/6 governors in the north central would watch Obi win the north central? He would come a distant fourth in the north central. Most of you don't even know the states that make up the north central.

Anyways I'm done with you. Most of you are probably in your early 20's. Y'all told us how Atiku would divide Buhari's votes in the north in 2019 and we saw the outcome.

I'm from Owan-East Local Government Area of Edo state, proudly South-South ...So your hatred for Ibo people has nothing to do with me

buckeyemedia:
Only an Ndi Igbo person will exclaim what you said, because they are the only ones that keep deceiving themselves, that any other tribe in Nigeria, will vote for a person like Peter Obi, even Orji Kalu & Okorocha though not contesting have a better chance than that perennial betrayer.

All these children will take their parents phone and be playing with it. Little boy, even the by-election to replace the late house of reps member for Jos north federal constituency was won by PDP on the mobilization of CAN, this is even though the constituency is about the only one with a sizeable Fulani muslim population. Christians in the north are all out this time around, they've had it rough with APC these past few years. That was why they futiley picked lalong as campaign DG and Jos to launch campaign... It will still not work.
As for Cross River in SOUTH SOUTH Nigeria, voting for Tinubu, because your calculation that the Governor is APC, just showed you're really just a child. Ayade, just like Umahi and co joined APC to see if they could get presidential ticket. As the party tossed them aside in disdain and being outgoing governors, they have nothing forseeable for them to continue to gain with APC. Moreover, their people have already made up their minds where to go, they can't do anything about it

garfield1:
Tinubu can win plateau and cross river

Very funny! Just imagine the delusion of urchins. Southeast and South-South have always had that kinship: thats why when Jonathan was in power, ibos carried him on their head. No surprises that South-South is carrying Obi on their heads... See Edo the other day, completely shut down for Obi. The Christian north have now realised they are the orphan of the north, hence they've gravitated to align with the core Christian south i.e southeast and South-South.
So, make everybody hold their stronghold.
Tinubu, southwest, Obi, southeast, South-South, part of northcentral, Atiku and Kwakwanso northeast and northwest

HIGHESTPOPORI:
Urchins are funny.Sw would vote their son , but North would leave their son and vote another.Very funny.Even Kwankwanso will have more votes than tinubu in the North

I don't care. It has nothing to do with me

Lol no pretending, if Soludo, urchins and the rest like, make dem go chew barb-wire, na their luck

MandelaLives:


Obidients na Una de cause problems for Una man oh. Ur love for the man too much nah! Na dis thing make other politicians wan kill am throway.

Tell me how person like Soludo can manage read this kind news without having problems. Abeg, Obidients, na beg I de beg Una, Abeg, de pretend small like say Una no like Obi again make de man get small breathing space for world. Abeg oh!

Witches??

On nairaland, we have already allocated terms to various classes of people: "URCHINS" are Tinubu suppoters. Please don't confuse neutrals like us

PlayerMeji:
Urchins will not still believe even if the whole world stands in one place for Tinubu because their minds have been taken over by their blind hate for Tinubu.

Their principal, Obi is still seething in pains from the Soludo roundhouse kick to his midsection.

The said Tinubu is a drug baron yet he travels all over the world and FBI or CIA has not arrested him.

It's really hard to be an urchin...

No need for all that. OP knows she is cheating, but he is too scared of losing her financial support, the wife too knows this. It isn't about her being dickmatised or the boy in question being sweeter, it is common for most women in this clime who have some little change to want to sleep around because they have the psychological leverage to. It is a rare privilege they feel only men have been enjoying.
The only solution for OP is to call her bluff and send her packing. He should be ready to do away with the financial support, he shouldn't be afraid. Psychologically, he may even be poor because he is relying on her. If he musters the courage to let her go, he will leave this comfort zone and prosper.

SamOchuko:
Bug her phone, not just call but WhatsApp and text messages as well, you’ll find out the truth with time

Children will just come online and be ranting. If you ask this one what he knows about Edo North, he will start bleating like a ram

garfield1:
Apc owns edo north boy

Hahahahahahahaaa see the close up pictures. No single wide shot. APC is dead in the South-South.

Let me tell you as it is: even if you're Hercules, if you attempt to rape a tiny girl and she doesn't want, she will fight you with all her strength. And you will marvel at where that strength came from.
This was not rape, he tried his luck, and they accepted.
Sometimes, you can actually get a woman like that, no toasting, nothing.

Yawn*... Who cares? You're taking yourself too seriously. "I'm spending money on myself yen yen yen". Who did you put on this earth to spend it on you before?
Whack mentality

LadyD22:
Then with my full chest I hereby proclaim myself the cheapest women on Earth because I like money too much , not 10k oh but the real money and that is why I'm still single because I'm spending too much money on myself I'm afraid of leaving me

Let me tell you what the problem is:
A lot of people have this misguided notion about love, relationship and marriage; they psychologically make themselves believe they are all there is to life.
You check these people's social media pages, it is all about love, relationships, marriage. You check their WhatsApp status always memes and videos of relationships and couples.
They can't discuss anything that is not love and relationships.
These kind of people are needy, They don't love themselves enough (even though they will argue otherwise). Their obsession with love is because they are looking for someone to "complete them". They don't believe they are complete all by themselves - the lowest form of self-esteem.
The irony is that these people never find true love. Why? Because you don't find love, it finds you.
The best these love-obsessed folks can get are good natured people who may just decide to stay. Other times, they meet down-to-earth people who would not allow themselves be smothered into staying. These down-to-earth folks know the difference between true mutual love and a one-sided idyllic obsession...
