Tinubu isn't your mate at all levels..

Racoon:
See reaction on Twitter( formerly "X" ).

May God bless our president, Bola Ahmed Tinubu (the Jagaban of Nigeria), and may God bless our country, Nigeria..... (Jagaban 8 more yrs)

May God bless our president, Bola Ahmed Tinubu (the Jagaban of Africa)... * more yrs!!!

Dele Momodu goes to anywhere that there is food; his heart is with the APC party 100%, but he has no balls to betray his masters; he has no choice but to do whatever they want him to do....And joining the APC party isn't one of these things. You may not understand my gist, but Dele Momodu knows exactly what I'm talking about. It is well!

guass:
Stop being bigotry. Thant was his view. Stop adding parties.

I agree to be senseless for not voting for a senseless candidate...These people simply can't learn anything from their past mistakes, they will carry last till the end of time

When the old stock finishes, they will abandon the place 😏

So, what's next?
You can take a donkey to the river, but you can't force him to take a bath...South Africans don't have what it takes to replace or overcome the major negative impact of chasing all these hard working folks out of their country.

Only time will tell; lets continue to watch the movies.

Glo continues to surprise me in a good way!

Which is very good because he has seen the realities on ground with clear distinctions oppressor and the oppressed.We have been saying this Isreal is evil and they are playing victim .

Trump sees nothing but his party losing the midterm elections in November; Trump's method of operation is to make a terrible decision and then when things fall apart he blames someone else.

I stand with Israel, but I have no respect for Netanyahu; he is despicable!
He believed he could manipulate Trump, but he overlooked the fact that Trump is the KING when it comes to exploiting others or throwing them under the bus.

AirBere:

They should all go back home. Scotland favored me and I've never complain about it even though I still visit Nigeria regularly.


Whoever is tired of staying outside Nigeria should stop disturbing the public space and quietly go back home 🏡

Many believe that a brief vacation in Nigeria for a couple of weeks can lead to lasting enjoyment. However, the reality is that Nigeria may not suit everyone. I recommend that individuals spend around 6 months in Nigeria to truly experience it before deciding to return permanently.

There are fundamental infrastructure challenges that people frequently encounter in Nigeria. All of these factors should be taken into account before making the decision to go back home.

Why do many young Nigerians believe the only way to succeed is to leave home?

Every day, thousands dream about Europe as the ultimate escape route — better roads, stable electricity, cleaner systems, stronger currency, and a more comfortable life. On social media, it often looks perfect. People post pictures in winter jackets, airports, clean streets, and foreign apartments, making it seem like life automatically becomes successful once you leave Nigeria.

But behind many of those pictures is another story nobody talks about enough.

The truth is that only a small percentage of Nigerians abroad are genuinely thriving financially and emotionally. Yes, some people have built successful careers, businesses, and stable lives overseas, and their success deserves respect. But for the overwhelming majority, life abroad is often a constant cycle of survival, bills, and pressure.

Many Nigerians abroad are living paycheck to paycheck. After rent, taxes, transportation, childcare, insurance, and endless expenses, there is little left. Some work exhausting shifts in warehouses, factories, care homes, or cleaning jobs for years with no real ownership or long-term security to show for it. Some are constantly anxious about visas, residency papers, documentation renewals, or immigration status. Behind the smiling pictures online are sleepless nights, loneliness, depression, and fear of uncertainty.

Some people spend ten or twenty years abroad and still cannot confidently say they have built a lasting foundation either there or back home in Nigeria. No land. No investment. No business. No real roots. Just survival from one month to another.

And as time passes, deeper worries begin to appear.

Many quietly wonder what old age will look like for them abroad. Will their children, raised fully in Western culture, still value family the same way Nigerians traditionally do? Will those children want to care for them personally when they grow old, or will they eventually end up alone in care homes, visited occasionally out of obligation rather than love and connection?

Some even worry about where they will finally be buried. Back home in Nigeria among their ancestors and family roots? Or in a foreign land where their children may feel more attached to than the country their parents came from?

These are painful conversations many people avoid having openly.

Meanwhile, back in Nigeria, despite all the frustration and hardship, there are people quietly building lives with purpose, ownership, and legacy.

Nigeria is still one of the biggest untapped markets in the world. In a country with over 200 million people, almost every problem is a business opportunity waiting for someone brave enough to solve it. While many people are focused on escaping, others are building companies, brands, farms, schools, tech startups, transport businesses, and real estate portfolios.

People behind companies in Nigeria that are unicorn, like fintechs, trading firms etc and did not wait for another country to hand them opportunities. They saw possibilities inside Nigeria and built around them.

Even in entertainment, we have seen many become global names while remaining deeply connected to their Nigerian identity and culture.

And beyond celebrities, there are ordinary Nigerians who may never trend online but are building quietly every day. The man who owns a growing supermarket chain in Aba. The woman running a successful fashion business in Lagos. The young developer earning remotely from Nigeria. The farmer expanding his land year after year. These people may not post foreign pictures online, but they are creating something solid and lasting.

Of course, this does not mean Europe is bad or that nobody should travel. There are Nigerians abroad doing incredibly well, building wealth, raising healthy families, and creating opportunities. Some people genuinely need to leave for education, healthcare, security, or a better quality of life.

But maybe the real question is this:

Should success only be measured by leaving Nigeria?

Because sometimes, the person staying back to build a business, create jobs, buy land, support family, preserve culture, and leave behind a legacy may actually be building a richer life than someone abroad living from shift to shift with nothing truly theirs.

At the end of the day, earning a paycheck is one thing. Building something that outlives you is another.

A straightforward response:

If you possess the financial resources or connections to build, I recommend that you remain. However, if you lack both money and connections, I advise you to head to the UK to work hard, save up, and then come back to build.

In Nigeria, without money or connections, it is nearly impossible to build anything.

Kwankwaso & Obi Supporters Fight At The Convention After Ticket Zoned To South)

In life, everything is a matter of choice; wealthy individuals tend to associate with other rich people, while intelligent individuals prefer the company of other smart people. On the flip side, those who are losers often find themselves surrounded by other losers...

0 + 0 = 0 😀😀😀😀😀😀😀

Jilo83:
Support your candidate without cursing others.
If Tinubu supporters say anybody that vote obi in 2027 will die, how will you feel.
Respect others opinions

This is the main reason why they remain the 2nd class citizens in Nigeria; no wisdom, no class and no respect, not only for others, but also for themselves.
It is truly sad!

Counterigbolies:
at least my own 30k good

U don collect your 2k abi na osho free u dey do?

How can a man who couldn't handle a party (LP) possibly manage this complex country? Leadership isn't suited for everyone; it's perfectly fine to be a follower. Even a great leader requires outstanding followers.

Kwankwaso strongly believes he is more intelligent than Peter Obi; I eagerly anticipate this showdown; it promises to be a fascinating spectacle.

Teenaira:
Igbo people should be very grateful to the great Jagaban. He loves them more than any president that has ever ruled Nigeria. That is why he is doing a lot of projects in the south east and given their people employment.
Umahi is an igbo man and everybody is happy with the very solid roads he is doing all over Nigeria. I am proud of him.

These individuals often fail to look beyond their immediate surroundings until it’s too late. Gaining their attention requires little effort; simply don a red round hat and insult Jagaban... and they will all sing your praises. The truth is clear; aside from embezzling funds and pursuing young women, what have your leaders accomplished for you recently?
No leader in Nigeria has done more for these people than Jagaban... The Lagos they adore more than anything was not created by Ojukwu, but rather designed and planned by the same Jagaban.
It is pointless to spend more time on this issue... It is what it is; this man will always occupy space in these people's minds without paying rent.

chrisxxx:
An average Igbo man believes the sun, moon and stars are only found in Igboland. Other parts of the country make use of Igbo celestial bodies. Other people lack sense of reasoning.

There is nothing more tragic than a man of God who has lost his way.
Only God has the power to give and take life; no one can predict what tomorrow holds, except for the all-powerful God.

To draw near to God or Allah, you genuinely do not require anyone else or any confusion; it is perfectly acceptable to have a personal relationship with the almighty God. He is the sole entity capable of making anything occur. Choose your church and your pastor or alfa with great care.
The remarks made by this individual are completely unnecessary, unacceptable, and unwise.
On judgment day, there will be many unusual individuals in hell.

QuinQQ:
From my calcularions Nigeria is NOT fixable. Countries that were bad then got fixed always had underlying decency of majority of the people that was then built upon. Nigeria doesn't have that and I don't see us ever having that

A lot of us just can't look beyond the tip of our noses...

There's really nothing that can't be done as long as we all come together and improve our country. We have the ability to make leaders who don't care accountable by voting for those who truly care about Nigeria and its people. By the way, president isn't the only entity that is responsible for the development of a nation; hold your governors, reps and senators responsible. I'm not so sure if an average nigerian knows the true duties of their reps, governors and senators

Several other African nations (Ghana, Tanzania, Rwanda, Nigeria, etc.) ought to unite and proactively invite all these immigrants to move to their countries...providing job allocations and opportunities to start new businesses.
This might seem outrageous, but it is achievable.

Its time for other African countries to step and expose these lazy drunks.

I believe the agreement between Kwankwaso and Peter Obi is to compete in the primary election, with the loser becoming the Vice President and the winner running for the presidency.
The reality is quite straightforward; Kwankwaso will never lose the primary to Peter Obi. Therefore, Peter Obi will not be the Nigerian president for a considerable time....the nearest he can get to that position is by running as Vice President.

You don't have to believe me, but I assure you that time will tell

Validated:
I love Peter Obi, but I think his latest move was a fatal political suicide.

With NDC splitting opposition votes, APC has a greater chance for reelection come 2027. Except ADC loses its cases, and it is deregistered or leadership handed over to Nafiu Bala Gombe, the opposition will again split its about 16m votes into two and hand presidency back to Tinubu.

Come 2031, power will shift to the North naturally, meaning Obi cannot contest. The coast would then be clear for Kwankwaso and Atiku to slug it out.

All those supporting PO move are selfish political rent seekers like the Okada rider, who used Obi to get to the NASS and later deflect.

My suggestion to Obi and NDC is this, reenergise the opposition by rekindling the coalition. If possible, allow ADC to present Atiku, so long as the the pending cases are resolved and a single term agreement is reached with Atiku. I mean, a furm written agreement signed by all parties. Otherwise, as it was in 2023, wherein LP coukd not man 40% of it polling units, NDC does not seem to have the structure to checkmste APC at the polls, so we are heading to the same argument of "we won, but our votes were stolen". Thereafter, the courts will do the needful.

As for Atiku, he should also put Nigeria interest above self. If AA feels the country is drifting into nothingness, he could shelve his ambition 2027, support a united opposition under NDC . Get Obi and Dickson in a room, trash out your differences, unify the opposition and take back power from APC. I thought this was the Ibadan Agreement.

Peter Obi demonstrates a lack of wisdom and leadership abilities..He should not have abandoned the party that provided him with such a prominent platform; he has switched between three different parties in just three years. To me, that raises a red flag.
If you were unable to handle the Labor Party, how can you possibly govern a nation as vast and complex as Nigeria? This is a question that his supporters dislike confronting.

This is a man who set a trap for others but foolishly fell into it himself; if there were a prize for the most foolish person alive, it would undoubtedly go to El Rufai.

Klington:
Sowore is obviously working for tinubu. A sore looser who only attacks one man in opposition. Eat your corn and stop pretending you hypocrite. If he's not attacking Alex Otti, he's attacking Peter Obi but his state in ondo is in complete ruins.

I thought Sowore was your best friend

It’s interesting to observe how quickly some people become resentful when confronted with differing opinions. Embracing diverse perspectives is not only beneficial but also educational; it encourages deeper understanding and fosters growth on multiple levels. Rather than wasting time displaying bitterness towards those with contrasting views, it would be more advantageous to recognize the value in these differences and leverage them for personal and collective improvement.
Today, this is why Jagaban remains untouchable and unmatchable politician; he is fantastic in this department.
Learn from your opposition!

Who is surprised here?
When you have no materials or wisdom, you go after folks that are truly blessed with such; Jagaban is not anybody's mate.

pdata:
Nigeria could be American ally just like Israel. Libia president ruled for over 40 years, I have nothing to say about that one. Gadafy wasn't really a saint. Muslims are just who they are, American's have left them since how many years, they should get their self together and rebuild, maybe America just unleash the worse that was already in them.

As for Iran , we can't run a world where we don't have a leader. USA told you to stop the nuclear weapon , i see no reason why you can't come out clean on this , hold press conference to show the world you are clean and willing to be friends with any western country just like UAE. Do business and let peace rain . But no , they just want to revenge.

You might have a valid argument, but it's essential to consider the opposing viewpoint; why is it acceptable for some nations to possess nuclear weapons while others cannot?
The same way Nigeria aims to be the leader of Africa, Iran should also be allowed to aspire for a similar position in the Middle East. Every nation desires recognition as a leader; no one wishes to be seen as inferior.

At the moment Cuba is the lukiest country around...The man usually doesn't have a solid plan for anything and severely incapable of doing multiple things at the same time... For this reason, this current war has distracted Trump from everything; Cuba is the last thing on his mind.

DEROXMAN:
All these ones means no shit Trump will be actively involved in our 2027 election i don create over 200 twitter account to tag him and Congress house. All we ask for is a free and fair election, how i wish usa 🇺🇸 can send over 3000 observers to each polling unit. At least ogunlere and nyesom will know its suicidal to kill any of them. 2027 is a must God of Jonathan will revenge

You are right, America will definitely be involved. The big question is: why are they going to be involved and who is their prefered candidate?Answer: I can tell you for free that America will back Jagaban even for a 3rd term, if necesary.
Class, wisdom, and experience cannot be bought; Jagaban is his enemies' mothers' boyfriend...

The amazing Jagaban!!!
Class, wisdom, and experience cannot be bought>...Kudos to Jagaban a million times!

Parachoko:
When Trump was campaigning, he told the American people there will be no new war under his watch. The middle east is now burning because of his foolish action

He also told them that he would follow the constitutions of USA

I find it hard to comprehend why people are still discussing Peter Obi, the very individual who failed to lead a single political party (LP) yet aspires to lead Nigeria. Moreover, the group that genuinely supported him in the last election has since moved on.
It is illogical to keep being sentimental or deceiving ourselves; Peter Obi is not the same as he was during the previous election.
