I guess he is trying to make up for his goofing and insulting "Curselike" remark about nigerian laborers,

Without a source, your story here will be considered a farce.

Tinubu is more than likely to lose the election, from all reasonable indications. At a distant third. You heard it here first!!!

He has now further divided his South Western Votes which he was certain to get the major chunk of. YES he is still winning his region but not with an overwhelming majority, more like 65%., Once Christian Churches and Clerics starts compelling their Congregation to Vote against him, a good amount of his own people will fall back, same as APC northern Christians.

Meanwhile the Muslim votes in the NW is split between him and the other 3 major Muslim contestants. North East is Behind Atiku, North Central is split in different Parts for the 4 candidates. While SE and SS are aggressively behind Obi.

Tinubu should have chosen a strong Christian like Dogara as vice and made sure strong muslims like Buhari, Ganduje and El Rufai, campaign aggressively for him. Oga Tinubu Sir, You made and doubled down on a Bad move!

Wow, God is Great, May God Continue to Bless you Sir, Thank you.

Pdp go collect wotowoto

To the igbos shouting Muslim Muslim ticket

Name a serving deputy governor or governor in south east that is a Muslim?

Is it not hypocrisy to condemn Muslim Muslim ticket n support Christian/Christian ticket in your region?

If u tell us the Igbo Muslims are not much
Do they not deserve to b represented?

My friend, I am Not sure if you have been living in Nigeria or if you know the Demographics of Nigeria or maybe you were just trying to be funny. The Muslims amongst igbos are less than 0.1 percent of the igbo population. Hopefully that helps?

Have a Great week!

PresidObi:
Unfortunately, Yorubas still live and work together with every other tribe in Nigeria so, what affects them affects every other tribe. Until I see filling stations dispensing fuel cheaper to some tribes, till I see hospitals where they check you tribe before billing you, until I see roads marked exclusively for a particular tribe, then we all are tied with one rope.

Thank you, And May God continue to bless you.

I will Donate $US1000, lets get the link come directly from PO. Im doing it for me, for you and our children unborn.

samunaka:
Why all these Lamentations, even if Tinibu had picked Father Mbaka, or Rev Mathew Kuka as his running mate people like Pastor Sarah would never have voted for them anyway, so why can't you just hold on and do the needful when the time comes, or at least wait until during the campaign when they must have told you their mission before judging them, mind you, it's not that glitters is gold

My Brother its about Principle, its about showing that you Tinubu as a National Leader, An Elder statesman, cares about the cohesion and multi ethnic structure of Nigeria. These are subtle was to show the people that you care. There are still many undecided voters in the South and Middle Belt, and his own Yoruba Christians. Now he can only fight for muslim votes. The same pot of soup that Atiku and Kwankwanso are already fighting from, says alot about Tinubus decision making skills.

Tinubu and his party does not care about Nigeria, Countless times now, when faced with option of choosing their selfish interest or Nigeria, they always choose their selfish interest.

People in APC do not care about Nigerians and the country's wellbeing. They have shown this in their massive corruption and mismanagement of our collective resources. They have borrowed money we dont have and invested it in useless non viable projects. Now 100 percent of our budget is used to finance debts and we cant even afford to finance it any more, we are about to default.

Imagine that one of the useless dumb wastage of our resources is buhari spending 1.9 Trillion naira to build train route far into Moradi, Niger Republic. Did you know that money would have built 4 world class Hospitals in the same Northern Nigeria, and still financed its operations for atleast 3 years, thereby reducing the need for rich nigerians to travel abroad for medical issues, bringing income, medical tourism etc to the areas the hospitals are located.

If you are still supporting APC and they are not paying you BIG money to do so, then you are delusional, a bad decision maker and a Bad judge of character
Vote for them at your own peril.

The headline is fraudulent, what he said is if Tinubu was not running under APC, we would have recommended tinubu for job if he would not be able to get it. But that as it stands is like doing something on zero, and Tinubu should explain what he would do differently from Buhari. Then he goes on to mock Tinubu for being unhealthy, and unfit for the job of the president.

Watch the video yourself.

The question should be why arent the other self acclaimed nationalist, elder statesmen, the reasonable people in APC resigning in protest. And why would any reasonable person want to support a party that is willing to set this country's unity on fire just to fulfil one mans lifelong ambition?

The truth is the People in APC do not care about Nigerians and the country's wellbeing. They have shown this in their massive corruption and mismanagement of our collective resources. They have borrowed money we dont have and invested it in useless non viable projects. Now 100 percent our budget is used to finance debts and we cant even afford to finance it any more.

If you are still supporting APC and they are not paying you BIG money to do so, then you are delusional, a bad decision maker and a Bad judge of character.

Its really sickening how much Tinubu is willing to throw our country under the Bus just to fulfill his lifelong Ambition. Why throw everything into wind? The sanctity, sanity and unity of Nigerians should matter to anyone who claims to be an elder statesman or wants to be our president.

The country is on the very final leg of destruction and some people are here playing tribal games. Please we will only vote the most competent of individuals to the office of the President of Nigeria regardless of where they are from.

As it stands now, NONE of the other serious contenders come close to OBi, Datti when all things are considered.

This can country can be redeemed, we can fight ourselves out of this. We are currently in a deep hole, and only the strongest of hands can pull us out. Please, This is not the time to play tribal politics, we need people who sound like they know what they are talking about with regards to rescuing nigeria, People whose life story before they became presidential aspirant match that of someone who is sincere trying to help not loot.

Even in Peter Obi family his Brother has dedicated his Life to the church to serve humanity as a Reverend Father, His sister is Has dedicated her Life to the church to serve humanity as a Reverend Sister. His daughter of everything she could have been with all the opportunities availed to her is a school teacher, fighting for Children. Obi is from a family that is giving up on wealth to serve humanity, Obi cannot be different from them.

Look at what is happening in Sri Lanka, the suffering there no dey look face again old or young, poor or rich, Every Sri Lankan is in tears due to decades of bad governance. Look at Venezuela, mothers offer theirselves on the side of the street for $2 dollars just to eat.

We are at a Crossroads at the moment in this Country. We might have one last chance to salvage this country. Please dont sell your vote and the entire country so you can come here and starting claiming tribal supremacy on Nairaland or twitter while the country burns.

Make we follow who know Road, Peter Obi, Datti Ahmed seem to be walking on a Path that has light ahead of it.

TakeBackNaija:
Imagine having NOI at the WTO and clean leaders like Peter Obi and Ahmed Datti as Nigerian leaders. We will definitely regain our respect in the committee of nations!

Truer words never spoken, dont forget Amina Mohammed as the Deputy Secretary General at the UN, she is top notch as well.

The Vanguard has done quack journalism in a bid to arm twist what PO said, the joke is on them. Obviously reading the excerpts from their write up and watching the video,

PO was asked what he thought about what Kwankwanso said,

What Kwankwanso said was, People from the North will not vote for people from the South East because of concerns of what is happening in the region...

POs response was, That type of thinking from nigerians (The thinking that I should only vote for a person from my tribe) is the reason why the country has remained the poverty capital of the world.

Its clear what PO said and that he was referring to Nigerians who approach politics from a tribal point of view, Use your tongue to count your teeth.

Reno is just pure poisonous to minds of Nigerians. people hide their faces here nairaland to spew similar hate but the man is there showing his face and using his twitter account to incite ethnic violence amongst nigerians.


Please Twitter Ban this man immediately.

Had a good chuckle watching some of the videos. There is hope, Peter is giving us a reason to believe that this country should not be written off yet...Not quite yet! This is only country we have, we are not going down without a fight. We cant allow these few greedy old people to bury us all with their insatiable greed.

Ok, so why hasnt he done that already? He has been ruling this country by proxy for 7 years, Hand picked the VP and most of the top ministers, Even the Senate President and Speaker of the house.

All these people gather together once a year to sing happy birthday to him at his colloquium...Why hasnt he done ANYTHING YET>>>>> HUH?

Nigerians are now Awake, keep your super stories to yourselves. He should retire, he has already tried his best and this country is worse off under him and his peoples management. We no dey do again.

Impressive feats by Obi

Does OP have a list of these northern benefactors of POs generosity?

Theknowledge:
There is this pride associated with the Igbo tribe which is not seen in other tribes- It takes more to be a Igbo man than to be from other tribes.

You can't afford to live the life of mediocre being Igbo and it comes with a lot of financial pressure- it is this status symbol that makes the lazy ones carry hard drugs to Asia and make the hard working ones being legitimately successful men.

I'm not saying that other tribes are not unique in their own ways.

Enough with the tribal taunting of other Nigerians, as an igbo there is nothing special about you and you are not better than other nigerians. This is how this forum deteriorated into this tribalist haven that it has become, because people come here to praise their tribe not knowing they are indirectly stoking ethnic tensions with other nigerians by doing that.

My Brother, You didnt chose to be an igbo man, i am very certain if you were given a choice by your creator before birth to chose amongst all the other tribes and ethnicities in the world, You would have never chosen igbo/nigeria.

Rather than praise your tribe which you have no control over, praise your immediate community, If you are from Ezimo where the car is being manufactured, then say ezimo is really trying to urbanize itself. This is how this country can lift itself from the myriad of tribal problems it is facing.

Move2:
No African country has 1 million police officers.
Nigeria still has one of the largest forces on the continent.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_and_dependencies_by_number_of_police_officers

Police units in Egypt is about a Million, Here is the link to their actual wikipedia

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Egyptian_National_Police#:~:text=Egyptian%20National%20Police%20or%20ENP,Egyptian%20Police%20logo

And from your link, following the needed amount of 300 police officers per 100K persons, you can see how far lagging behind we are. We are below half the recommended minimum.

Subsidywise20:
If he is serious, and if Nigerians don't protest against it...

Most Nigerians don't want to buy fuel at market price. No matter how you preach it, no matter how one points out subsidy must go, Nigerians want cheap fuel.

If Obi says that he would take power and set fuel at N10 per liter, he would win in 35 states. No matter the fact that such a decision would sentence our economy to death.

I updated my response. read the whole thing.

Subsidywise20:
Peter Obi on subsidy removal

1.Would you remove subsidy: Yes and no.

My comment

Honestly not really satisfied with this answer. Subsidy has to go and go completely. There is no yes and no, there is yes, or no.

It will defintely go under PO. It cannot be removed without another system in place to check the cost of transportation in Nigeria, and lets not forget most nigerian companies are using fuel or diesel to power their companies.

You have to remember that the current subsidy is fraudlent, the figures they are claiming is four or five times more than what the country needs. If that alone is checked, that would save tens of trillions of naira and then subsidy itself becomes reasonable. You can not be able to oversee this process without being the president yourself, this is what Okonjo Iweala was saying. its a gang up.

PO is not coming to do magic, the nigerian public are more educated than they were years ago, so he cant be making promises that are unrealistic, PO coming in, is a step in the right direction to stop the bleeding from these arteries that has been cut. Then the healing and the emancipation begins.

Hope you watched the video to the end, his responses were realistic, and you can tell he is someone who knows the problem.

Abia State and Anambra State used to be considered as being on the same level in the late 90s and early 2000s. But today when you talk about Anambra, you cant even mention Abia state next to it. The Reason for that massive jump in difference is Peter Obi.

at OP only those who have not been living in Nigeria in the last 30 years would not understand what I am saying.

dele1727:


How can you compare the Great Peter obi to a Rat poison man like Awolowo....

Now imagine a cow like Fulani man is saying This...

What does a cow know?

This is wrong, Say no to Tribalism.

Thats why we are fighting for him sir,

He is nobleman. This could be saved if hes elected president.

Thank you OBj
