Kenneth Okonkwo will eventually get himself into a cage if he's not careful

nothing like cage, obi is very good in this kind of media attention, he did the same thing to deji adeyanju

Huhuhuhu OBI is looking for an excuse to run away from the contest entirely TINUBU na your mate in politics ne

Mumu liar the same obi that claim he can generate 40,000 MW in 2023 presidential election, now he has reduced it to 10,000 MW ooo the scammer of agulu village Nigerians are not like your Obidients oo 🤣

The same OBI that is promoting IPOB terrorists activities behind the scenes

Someone that can't even react or condemn IPOB terrorists and ESN killings and kidnapping in his state

And yet you can't say anything about Monday sit at home in your state , obi just thank God while you are speaking all this rubbish I was not there

Good governernce and you even mentioning peter obi name mteeeew

Obogidi:
For your information, I don't support any candidate, all I wanted is good governance, abi sufferness no dey tire you?

Obogidi:
Nigeria is divided again.

On one side, you have supporters of Peter Obi — the man many youths call “the symbol of a new Nigeria.”

On the other side, loyalists of Bola Ahmed Tinubu — the political strategist who many say “built the system that made him.”

But let’s forget noise for a second…

❓ What do Nigerians REALLY want?

Is it:
👉 A leader with a clean, disciplined image?
👉 Or a leader with deep political experience and control?

💭 Some say Peter Obi represents hope, transparency, and a break from the old order.

💭 Others argue Bola Tinubu represents power, structure, and the ability to get things done in Nigeria’s tough system.

But here’s the truth nobody wants to admit:

⚠️ Nigeria’s problem is bigger than ONE man.

Not Obi.
Not Tinubu.

It’s about:
— Corruption we tolerate
— Leaders we defend blindly
— A system we refuse to fix

🔥 So instead of fighting each other online…

Ask yourself:
👉 If your preferred candidate wins, will YOU change?
👉 Will Nigeria really change… or will we repeat the same cycle?

🇳🇬 The future of Nigeria is not in Peter Obi or Tinubu alone… it is in ALL of us.

💬 Be honest:
Who do you believe truly understands Nigeria — Obi or Tinubu?

👇 Drop your answer. No insults. Just facts.

op look at the kind of question you are asking, OBI that didn't even understand small anambra State that is not up to one LGA in Niger State you are here comparing with TINUBU. You Obidients always think everyone think like you. The same OBI you guys claims he's the worst governor of anambra state when he was governor

Peter obi is a known notorious lair to every patriotic citizen

Things will change like the way you increase poverty rate as governor of small anambra state abi ? Very unfortunate man

Nigerians are happy to have TINUBU as president

Millionaires and billionaires on the beat chaiii 🤣🤣🤣

Peter obi can't contest and win senate seat in anambra state now

Why appealing ? I thought you guys will depend on social media

Court sack APC chairman ? Hmm to unfortunate losers this is victory for democracy, but if the court gave the same judgment against opposition party. The hypocrites losers will claim democracy is in danger

When Obidients come after him, he will claim his statement was twisted.

Even as former incumbent governor of anambra state, obi migrated from anambra state to Lagos state completely.

Losers will soon invade this thread with different false narrative again

seunmsg:
I am from SW, Adeleke is from SW. Even this matter has absolutely nothing to do with anybody's ethnicity. But then, you're a Peter Obi supporter so you're not expected to see any public discussion beyond your bigoted prism.

comrade Stop replying some mentions , must of them are kids with free bonus data just to login to nairaland and quote senselessly

INEC should obey the federal high court judgment immediately

Seeplusplus:
In 2015, Rotimi Ameachi was still the governor of Rivers.

Is Oshiomole telling us that Wike had more powers than Ameachi in 2015?

Ameachi was powerful up until 2023.

Oshiomole should say something else

from 2015 ameachi was only powerful in transport ministry as minister up to 2022 when he resign to contest for president, but he is not powerful in rivers state. 2015 governorship election in rivers state WIKE was powerful than the then incumbent governor of rivers state Mr ameachi courtesy of the then incumbent president GEJ and his wife .

Is it now you know leke is a member of ADC? When hijackers claim ownership of ADC where were you?

Penguin2:
Ordinarily I would have been happy with the deregistration of ADC because it would clear the pathway for the north to vote for Peter Obi in greater majority, but I can’t support injustice just because it favours me or my interests.

The High Court based its ruling on the constitutional provision that INEC has the power to deregister any political party that fails to either score 25% of votes cast in any state in a presidential election or fails to win the governorship, senate, HOR, House of Assembly or LG chairmanship.

However, records show that ADC won 2 House of Representatives seats in the last general election.

The ADC won two House of Representatives seats in the 2023 National Assembly elections. Those seats were:

1. Leke Abejide — representing Yagba Federal Constituency (Mopamuro, Yagba East, and Yagba West LGAs) in Kogi State. He was re-elected on the ADC platform.
2. Ahmed Jaha — representing Damboa/Gwoza/Chibok Federal Constituency in Borno State. He was listed among the two ADC members elected into the 10th House of Representatives.

Further breakdown of parties and the number of seats won is as follows:

In the 2023 Nigerian House of Representatives elections, the African Democratic Congress (ADC) won 2 seats in the House of Representatives.

The distribution of seats after the election included:

* APC – 162 seats
* PDP – 102 seats
* Labour Party – 34 seats
* NNPP – 18 seats
* APGA – 4 seats
* ADC – 2 seats
* SDP – 2 seats
* YPP – 1 seat

These figures are for the 10th House of Representatives inaugurated in June 2023.

So, on what basis was the party deregistered despite this obvious record of electoral success in the last election?

I know APC supporters are cheering the news but you should be careful what you support. These things are setting precedents and the people you support will not always be in power. I hope you would be okay when another side gets into power and starts to follow in same footsteps.

This is an aberration that should be reversed.

The same ameachi that can't even go to his village and campaign in rivers state

LeoAj:
In Naija politics, the most dangerous opposition ticket is never the one that looks the strongest on paper.

It is the one that covers the specific geography of your vulnerability.

Tinubu knows exactly where he is vulnerable. He has been looking at those maps since the night of February 25, 2023, when the results came in and he saw the states he barely survived, the states he lost outright, and the states where his margins were thin enough that a different opposition combination could have erased them entirely.

He has thirty-one governors. He has 10.9 million party members who voted in a primary. He has federal resources and the full machinery of incumbency.

But he does not have the South-South. He does not have the northern Christian bloc. And he does not fully own the North-East or North-West in the way he owned them in 2023 with Buhari's endorsement behind him.

Now, with the Atiku-Amaechi ticket reportedly confirmed and an announcement expected from the ADC imminently, two men who know each of those vulnerabilities personally are standing on the same platform pointing directly at them.

The AA ticket is born. And Tinubu's campaign team needs to stop dismissing the opposition and start reading the electoral map more carefully.

How The Man Who Said He Would Never Play Second Fiddle Finally Played Second Fiddle

Let us acknowledge the backstory because it is too good to skip.

Amaechi obtained his N90 million ADC presidential nomination form. He said, on camera, that nobody had ever told him to be vice president because they knew his worth and what his reaction would be.

He contested the primary. He got 504,117 votes to Atiku's 1,846,370. He called the result concocted. He boycotted the declaration.

He said he would never play second fiddle.

Then Atiku visited him at his residence. Amaechi did not come to the gate.

Then Amaechi visited Atiku at his residence. He came through the gate.

A very close ally of Amaechi, speaking to The Guardian, explained how the change happened: "VP nominee would have extensive roles to play in the campaigns and government." Highly placed political leaders from both the North-West and South-South reportedly applied sustained pressure on Amaechi to accept the offer, arguing that the combination gave the ADC its best chance of threatening Tinubu.

The development was confirmed on Saturday by the immediate past ADC chairman in Rivers State, Leader Sampson, who said Amaechi had accepted the vice-presidential slot.

The man who would never play second fiddle is now in the second seat.

The satirical observation has been made elsewhere in these pages. But the strategic observation deserves its own moment.

Because Amaechi accepting the VP slot, with all the noise and contradiction it contains, is actually the most mature political decision he has made since 2022. He looked at the electoral map. He ran his own numbers. He understood that his best path to national relevance and eventual presidency runs through a credible 2027 campaign as VP. And he swallowed the pride.

That is not weakness. In Naija politics, knowing when to subordinate your ego to strategic reality is the rarest skill available. Most politicians never find it.

Amaechi found it in June 2026. And it may be the most consequential decision of this election cycle.

THE SOUTH-SOUTH CALCULATION: WHERE TINUBU'S REAL PROBLEM BEGINS

Let us go straight to the number that matters most.

In 2023, the South-South geopolitical zone produced the following presidential results:

Tinubu got 1,427,584 votes from the entire South-South region. Peter Obi got 1,127,123. Atiku got 1,177,980.

Tinubu won the South-South narrowly in aggregate, but his margin was paper thin. In Rivers State, he got 280,762 votes to Atiku's 175,467 and Obi's 175,071. Delta gave him 244,966 to Obi's 177,967 and Atiku's 199,559. Bayelsa gave him 105,786.

Very unfortunate man always speaking like he is suffering from too much intake of tramadol, of what use is that to Nigeria and Nigerians?

Bolaji Abdullahi You must be also arrested as well for appointing yourself as spoke man in a party you were never a member

Obi is just reacting in the name of I have reacted, if you ask him to explain the court judgment he can't

Mr governor please speak with caution before the tiger of the Niger delta, the lion of PDP Mr WIKE turn to you oo. Even your godfather umahi and umahi godfather anyin will both run away and leave you alone. Be careful

First to call the police doesn't mean you must win the case, you guys must get sense in this nairaland and in Nigeria politics by fire by force 😆😆

ArcSEMPECJ:
Mods, ...... can't you all see this kind of post and ban the person

Is it when someone brings up a reasonable argument that you will ban the person but set free people of this nature?

Anyway, even if Nairaland is bought by APC, it doesn't make everyone here to reason without thinking....

Kwankwaso is not serious about any contest of vice presidential ticket in 2027, he is after winning governor of Kano state in 2027 and positioning himself with NDC supreme leader Mr Dickson in 2031

LagosOrigin:
Congratulations To Mr Peter Obi in advance

in advance as the first candidate to reject election outcome abi 😅😅

CrownOfClay724:
Your nemesis.
The very air you breath.
And the one who you religiously adore and worship.

is he a human, plants or animal ?

Ameachi that can't even enter his village to campaigns
