Too many ignorant clowns running around like headless chickens on social media. What the fvck is this thread all about? Apologize for not supporting the re-election of an ineffectual buffoon like Jonathan?

Some of you really need to take a crash course in democracy so as to stop embarrassing yourself online like this. See, I live in Army post service housing estate in Abuja. Come there and collect your apology. Nonsense.

Villa12:
I'm actually not a Yoruba but I've lived in Yoruba land, Lagos precisely for long

Any Yoruba, Hausa or fulani man and woman campaigning for Obi should have a rethink and retrace their step back. Though this isn't supposed to be so but you see those IGBOS have turned this election to tribalistic one. They have even turn it to religious one

I will support and vote for Tinubu. He has more achievements, antecedents and legacies to point at as a governor and when he left government than EVERY other contestants

Tinubu is very much accommodating and tolerance than other contestants. IGBOS are taking political position in Lagos. IGBOS are civil servants in Lagos and other South western states. IGBOS are doing businesses freely in Lagos and other south western region

Please go to any eastern state to see if you'd see any Yoruba or Hausa man as ordinary councillor. It is a TABOO to the Igbo

To them their igbo president in form of Obi is the best after bread and butter while others are nothing to write home about. Support Tinubu or Atiku and watch them curse, bash or threaten you. They accused you of being paid for supporting Tinubu or Atiku while them are doing it freely. They always insult the Fulani and Hausas and call them all sorts of names. They even call them cow, almajiri etc. They insult the Yorubas calling them fulani slaves. They condemned Nigeria as a country. Claiming Nigeria is a ZOO

ACHIEVEMENT- I WILL VOTE TINUBU
TOLERANCE & ACCOMMODATING- I WILL VOTE TINUBU

For the northerners who reside in the north you can ask any of your family or friends living in Lagos and other South western states they will tell you how Yoruba are so friendly, loving and accommodating. Go to the state headquarter at Alausa ikeja you'll see igbos holding top position without any discrimination

Go to east and see how all positions are occupied completely by all igbos.

An average IGBOS are resentful, spiteful, hateful, bittered et al. They literally see themselves better, superior and more sophisticated than other tribes.

PLEASE verify this my claim if you aren't aware of it and make a decision on who to campaign and vote for

I leave you to your conscience

2023 Elections: 8 Powerful Reasons To Vote for Peter Obi

2023 presidential election is fast approaching. It presents you and I another opportunity to get right at topmost political echelon of the country.

Many, including the late legendary writer Chinua Achebe, have narrowed down the problem with Nigeria to bad leadership.

Renowned leadership expert, John C. Maxwell, said it best: “Everything rises and falls on leadership.”

Nigeria has travelled for too long on the wrong path leading to unprecedented nationwide suffering in the land. A suffering that is no respecter of tribe or religion.

Therefore, it is in our collective best interest to get it right this time around.

It is against this background that, after considering the pros and cons of the 3 leading presidential candidates, I decided to share with you my compatriots a few strong reasons why Mr Peter Obi is right man for the job.



1. Peter Obi is averse to waste

At the root of the poor infrastructural development all over Nigeria is criminal wastefulness, corruption and inflated contracts. Road or rail projects that can be done with N2 billion are inflated to N20 billion. The consequences of this is that projects go on forever and funds that would have been used to do 4 or 5 projects are spent on just 1 project.

A very good example is the Lagos light rail project. It was conceptualised by Jakande in the early 80s but still remains uncompleted till date, even after 23 years of APC/Tinubu unbroken stranglehold of Lagos State.


2. The people's president

Of the 3 main candidates, only Peter Obi is banking on the power of the people to get elected. Tinubu and Atiku are relying/relied heavily on the support of the delegates (bought with dollars), governors, senators, house of representatives and other structures of their political party to get elected.

The consequences of this is clear. If Peter Obi is elected, naturally he will take decisions that will benefit the overwhelming majority of Nigerians who voted him to power.

Unlike the other candidates who if elected will spend reasonable public funds and time to reward the structures that got them elected.


3. A visionary president

In 2023, we need a president who, while catering for the current generation and solving the myriads of the current problems, also plans for the future, our children and the unborn generation.

A president who realises that Nigeria will still be existing in 100 and 200 years to come and sets aside some funds for the future and unborn generations.

That is what Peter Obi represents, as he demonstrated in Anambra by saving some money for the future.

We do not need people who believe we should consume everything today and let the future take care of itself.




4. He is young, vibrant and energetic

With the plethora of problems plagueing Nigeria currently, we need a president that is relatively young, energetic and vibrant.

A president that has the physical and mental capacity to supervise the effective implementation of his programs and policies across all sectors simultaneously across the country.

A president with hands on approach on all the issues.

That is what Peter Obi represents.




5. A courageous president

We need a president who has the courage to take and implement critical decisions that can move Nigeria forward.

Peter Obi demonstrated great courage when he opted to be impeached as Anambra governor rather than deploy public funds to pacify the greedy lawmakers. It takes courage and conviction to take such risky personal political decision because the impeachment court case could have gone either way.



6. His message is clear and concise

His campaign message in all the media interviews has centred around reducing waste and moving Nigeria from consumption to production. This is very clear message that tackles the root cause of many of the problems bedevilling Nigeria today.


7. A president that communicates to Nigerians
So far, of the 3 main candidates, only Peter Obi has granted to several live TV interviews. It shows he is a believer in the power of communication. He believes you and I have the right to know.

Atiku only managed to grant a recorded interview while Tinubu has not granted any at all.

This time around, we need a president that has the confidence to speak to Nigerians directly about his policies and challenges if any. Enough of deaf and dumb Presidents, hijacked by cabals in Aso Villa.



8. A listening president

As governor of Anambra State, Peter Obi was always visiting schools, hospitals, etc to hear and feel the challenges. At some point, he gave his phone number to the school prefects to get direct feedbacks. This demonstrates that Peter Obi will be a listening president.

We don't need a president that will be hijacked by the Aso Rock cabal and only brought out once in 6 months to show proof of life.

In conclusion, 2023 presents another opportunity for you and I to choose a leader that will serve Nigeria and Nigerians in the next 4 to 8 years. For me, it is a very easy decision.

My choice is Peter Obi/ Ahmed Yusuf

Their zombism is incurable.
Just relax karma will surely visit them in due time.
What I know is that they will never go without punish.

Going into 2015 and 2019 elections, many of us gave reasons why Buhari was the wrong choice, but people like Tonyebacanista, Seunmsg, Omenka and Co insisted that Buhar/APC was the best choice and that Buhari will change Nigeria for good.

They abused us and bullied their way to power on both occasions.

7 years down the line, the jury is out. The abysmal failures of the Buhari and APC regime is visible even to the blind.

The nation is currently facing unprecedented insecurity. Many have been killed, kidnapped and maimed.

Buhari chased IPOB from the radio to the streets and to armed struggle. He nurtured fulani herdsmen to bandits and terrorists. No part of the country is safe.

The economy has been bastardized with the naira on a free fall, tumbling over 300 percent in the last few years.

Prices of goods and services have sky-rocketed whereas wages have remained stagnant.

Buhari lacked courage in tackling every aspect of governance including the fuel subsidy. He watched cluelessly as the cost of fuel subsidy ballooned to nearly N6 trillion. The refineries remained moribund.

He mismanaged over diversity. The country has never been this divided along ethnic and religious lines.

In fact, nothing is working in Nigeria except for criminal enterprises like kidnapping for ransom and brazen corruption.

Therefore, when will the likes of Tonyebacanista, Seunmsg, Omenka and other APC cheerleaders apologise to the good people of Nigerian for the ignoble roles they played in 2015 and 2019 elections?

I think that is the most honourable thing to do before trying to push another evil agenda in 2023 elections.
