I thought Yorubas are very educated and enlightened.
What's all these rubbish?

ImpregnaTor:
With the wave of the LP movement and the way they voted in the presidential election is ok to assume a repeat of that in the governorship elections.

Do you think Labour party will win all the governorship seats in South East(Ebonyi,Abia,Enugu)?

Pls drop your realistic view

Labour party will win Enugu and Abia. I don't know about Ebonyi.

Labour party will also win plateau and crossrivers state. And maybe, Delta and Lagos

Nonsense, so how come they can mate to bear non-sterile offsprings?

Do you know what the definition of a "species" is?

udemzyudex:
I don't understand? This is his last term and the house of assembly won't just decide to impeach him if he didn't do anything bad.

All this tension is unnecessary.

exactly, he's juys being paranoid

We are building structure for LP, sorry obaseki

EPIJOE:
CAN A YORUBA MAN TRY TO BECOME A GOVERNOR IN ANAMBRA? WILL U PEOPLE ACCEPT? THE MAN JUST SAID THE TRUTH.

who's stopping Yoruba people from migrating in numbers to Anambra, establish themselves there to an extent that they become poltically relevant?
If they can, yes, a yoruba man can become governor of Anambra state.

FreedomArmy:
nothing is wrong with igbos taking over and we should encourage that.

Nope, don't see it as a takeover. It's not a takeover.

An Igbo man has ruled Lagos in the past, why didn't igbos takeover?

FreedomArmy:
My friend let me tell you the reality and it's a bitter reality. Igbos will eventually take over Lagos in the next 10 years Maximum. I mean this guys have the number to do it. There are over 5million igbos scattered all over Lagos. Now tell me what will happen if 5million Igbos head to the poll and vote who will become the governor of Lagos.
From 2027, anybody who wants to win governorship position in Lagos must make an Igbo man the deputy governor.

So what's wrong with that? Is this not one Nigeria?
Is Lagos not a cosmopolitan city?

Are Yorubas not taking poltical positions in western countries? Whadafuck is wrong with you guys?

I use to think that Yorubas are enlightened people but many of you reason like garbage

Please note that this post is not generalizing because we have sane Yorubas who don't reason this way.


The problems with many Yorubas is that they have this unfounded suspicion and psychologically paranoia that igbos will someday Takeover Lagos from them. The cause of this psychological issue is not far fetched:

1. Mainly because Igbos in Lagos aren't doing badly business and monetary wise.

2. Many Yorubas expect igbos to be subservient to them and always be within their whims and caprices. But igbos really don't care, we cannot sever you. We can only do our business, mind it, pay federal and state taxes, that's the only thing we owe Lagos state.

3. Again, we cannot worship Yorubas, Yorubas should not expect us to because you are not doing us any Favour. Igbos like every other tribes in Nigeria are playinf significant economic role in the development of Lagos and Lagos state is receiving huge revenue in tax with respect to that. Let's just give each other mura respect for peace to reign.

4. We are not taking Lagos, we are only doing business there. It's your land. Stop the inferiority complex. We can decide to vote for whoever we like, don't see it as a threat to your lives. We are not your servants.

5. We are minding our business, we are here to do business and make a living for ourselves and in turn pay tax to Lagos state government. We are not here to worship the Yorubas. We will never do that.


The earlier you accept that igbos are never going to worship you, the better. The relationship between Lagos state and igbos is not parasitic but mutaulistic. We are contributing our quota to the development of Lagos state and we don't intend taking it away from you.
Yorubas should stop beating the drum of war for myopic political reasons. Since you have been gaining politically, is the life of an average Yoruba man better than an Igbo man financially? No, it's because we igbos know how to go about getting money irrespective of the poltical challenge against us. We are tick people, we don't runaway from challenges, we face it head-on and we cannot runway from tribal bigoted Yorubas.

Do let's come together and vote right instead of voting tribalistically.
Thanks for reading.

Nefort:
Then you are from Obio Akpor.

I am from Abia state sir

porthouse7:
and so? He already said he's not Igbo, the guy hate Igbo with passion

Shut up

Nefort:
That's not Igbo.

So how come I understand?

chrisxxx:
You are confused here. Igbos are Ikwerres who migrated to hinterland. In essence Igbos speak a kind of adulterated Ikwerre.

lol, another theory

Munamoqel:
when will he visit those beaten up by obidents in the east for voting Non IGBO ?

Ask your miserable father

See how he's speaking pure Igbo

What a man.
Compassionate leader.

We need a government that understands the pain of the common people and will be compassionate towards them.

I cannot miss Peter Obi.

Alphonsus Eba, the Party Chairman disclosed the party’s decision on Monday in Calabar during an interactive session with the media.


Mr Eba explained that the adoption of the LP candidate followed the Supreme Court judgment nullifying the candidacy of Regina Anyogo, who was hitherto the candidate of the APC.

He said that endorsing Mrs Anyogo was in line with the political calculation and sportsmanship to support the LP in the state.

He further explained that the alliance was to ensure that Labour Party supporters would reciprocate the gesture and vote for Bassey Otu, governorship candidate of the APC in the state on March 11.

“As a party, we are adopting the candidate of the Labour Party, Brian Odey in the Yala 1 State Constituency election.

“We are in this alliance because we want supporters of the Labour Party to also support the candidate of the APC in the governorship election,” he said.

The APC chairman also called on the police to prosecute the more than 16 suspects arrested for allegedly causing violence during the Presidential/National Assembly election in Cross River North.

He urged the police to go further by arresting their sponsors and prosecuting them accordingly.

Mr Eba, however, alleged that the Presidential/National Assembly election held in the state was militarised, especially in Cross River North.

He, therefore, called on the Chief of Army Staff, Lt.-Gen. Farouk Yahaya, to ensure soldiers from 82 Division, Enugu, were not deployed to militarise election in the state again.

Responding, Mr Odey thanked the APC leadership in the state for endorsing him ahead of the polls.

He assured that he would lead his supporters to vote for the APC governorship candidate.

This same igbos voted massively for Obasanjo, Yaradua and Goodluck Jonathan.
Throughout this period, Ojukwu, Orji Uzor Kalu and many prominent Igbo people were on the ballot.

Yorubas have never voted massively for any Igbo person, so who is responsible for tribal poltics. I think it's thr Yorubas.

Yorubas are not as enlightened as they are selling themselves. There's thus inherent hate for igbos in them.

The evidence that Igbos have voted massively for other tribes many times, if they are voting for Peter Obi now then it means he's the most competent.

Ltd tlak about competence and not the silly tirbla shit that many illiterate self-acclaimed tribal Yoruba sell. After, this election, I have concluded that majority of yorubas are pure fools because a tribalist is an foool by default.

Let's talk about the issues and set tribe aside, but many Yorubas are too stupid to leave it. Vert bigoted people

bryning899:
Neither Obi nor Atiku met the constitutional requirements of being declared winner, none of them have spread even if they have highest number vote casted, Obi is completely out of the game, the worst scenario is run off between the two leading candidates.....

you cannot know that for sure until to collate the real result

Court case go sweet.

We meet in court

BREAKING NEWS: Results Obtained from IReV Portal shows that Peter Obi is the winner of the 2023 presidential election

LP: 19 States + FCT
PDP: 8 States
APC: 7 States
NNPP: 2 States

INEC just set Tinubu and APC up for jail because how can you rig an election you clearly lost?


Please kindly collate it yourself. All the data you need is here.
https://cvr.inecnigeria.org/results

HenryThegreat1:
Na lie. Stop spreading fake news.

check for yourself

https://cvr.inecnigeria.org/results

More than 90% of the results has bee uploaded and different figures from what INEC declared in many PU, wards and local governments have been uploaded and APC is losing.


You can go through the portal yourself. Seem like APC was set up because INEC is providing hard evidence for Peter Obi to win in court.

Results from Obio Akpor local government alone, APC lost 68k votes while LP gained 67k votes as uploaded on INEC portals.

Mynd44:
He is a native of Umuahia North.

yes, I confirmed. You are right

This is my constituency. He has already won.

PDP must go, we don't care if the winner is from Senegal.
We need to change these old hags

BlakKluKluxKlan:
FCT is not z state so it's not in the recording.

Stop arguing, winner must get 25% in 24 states AND FCT.

Moh247:
Argue with premium times

I'm disagreeing with you. I am telling you the current figure.

APC:4. 9
PDP: 3.6
LP: 2.2

Moh247:
In case you don't know, Tinubu is currently at 3.8 million as we speak and obi 1.4

Jigawa just came in and not yet added

Tinubu has 4.9, Atiku 3.6, Obi 2.2

0monnak0da:
Not just vote deficit
How many states has he got 25%?
It is not even sure that he will come second

Second is determined by
NUMBER of states won

Obi is winning in most number states currently. But he may not get the popularity votes.

Irrespective of what Tinubu gets, if he doesn't make 25% in FCT, there will be a runoff
