Here Peter Obi demonstrates what so many having been saying from the start of his presidential bid: more than anything else, his rabidly intolerant supporters were the ones who cost him any chance of victory, by alienating everyone who wasn't in perfect alignment with every single one of their opinions. Just compare and contrast the vicious insults and personal attacks they unleashed upon Soyinka's head with this statement by Obi in which he forthrightly acknowledges what all his ignorant and bilious supporters couldn't: that Wole Soyinka paid an unimaginably high personal cost for the Igbos during the civil war, and has more than earned his right to speak out on public affairs without fear of frothing mobs calling him every foul name in the book.

shortgun:
Most detribalised and most presidential Nigerian alive today.

The man who single handedly killed money politics in Nigeria, he gave Nigerians hope, he made us realise that it's Possible.

If Nigeria miss Peter Obi and Datti Ahmed, it won't recover in the the next 20 years.

ganisucks:

He's preparing to take charge, and form a national united government, after being declared by the courts as the duly elected President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

God1000:
Nice, he's building new bridges of love and unity.

But I think there's something fundamentally wrong with Nigeria, good people with good intentions are not given the chance, I don't know why

Penguin2:


Rest in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth.

Whatever happened to Soyinka, he invited it upon himself.

Prior to his ignominious adventure into trying to rationalize the sham election organized by INEC, every Nigerian, including Obidients, held Soyinka in high esteem.

But like an Igbo proverb says, if an elder refuses to respect himself, children will play with his testicles.

Soyinka refused to respect himself when he tried to give his imprimatur to an election that the entire world condemned. He deserved every disrespect he got and I’m happy he was bullied back into silence where he was.

Any political group that wants to drive change of political order in a democracy MUST tolerate contrary opinions, voices of dissent and acts of opposition.

The current Nigeria democracy is no doubt benefiting from highly active and youthfully vociferous opposition that Obi-dients provide. However, their lack of tolerance to slight deviation of opinions is TOXIC and DANGEROUS.

This negative attitude will always be RESISTED by every true intellectual. The reason is very simple: intellectualism and flow/exchange of ideas flourish when every shade of opinion is heard. Intellectual abhor herd mentality.

So when intellectuals like Prof Soyinka, Prof. Soludo and others like them stoutly detest and vehemently counter Obi-dients and their lack of tolerance, you will appreciate where they are coming from.

Change of tactics needed and I am happy Peter Obi himself is leading the way.

lol, see consolation

When would court finally deliver this judgement because i cant wait for una to start insulting judiciary

NzogbuNzogbu:
lol, for someone who literally went to someone house to beg and is gushing in awe of been in Prof presence

Prof should have given obi the treatment atiku gave him like an orphan in Bayelsa

Offpointng:
When I say these clans really cannot do or make significant progress without the SW and Yorubas, they do come for my head. I thought they said Yorubas are betrayals and tribalistic?? Why has Obi been moving from one Yoruba elder's house to the other? What happened to all the Onowu's court in the SE? why is he not visiting any of them?? Are they so Inconsiquential??

Pls we urgently need answers

God bless Nigeria and Nigerians 🤗❤👍

I meant Niyi Osundare

Basic123:

I tell you.

He will allow his touts to do the damage in public and go behind to exonerate himself..then his slaves will now come out again praising him.
He did the same thing to fela kuti .

He will never condemn his headless mob activities publicly.Have they apologized for embarrassing prof..NO...here we are praising thier God for bridge building.

Mad people.

This is one of the many things I so hate and dislike about this dangerous and slimy snake, he sits and looks the other way while his vile, disgusting and toxic mob insult, abuse, denigrate, ridicule and trash other people, they dragged and trashed Prof Wole Soyinka for almost 2 weeks, but this 2 face slimy clown was enjoying it and refused to order his toxic mob to desist, now he's prostrating and playing nice as if he was under some cave in Afghanistan when his mob was attacking the Professor.

It's always the same crooked and deceptive game all the time, Nigeria is so lucky that God rejected this evil and bigoted clown.
