Come, can I ask you a question. Are you buying things cheaper than you bought them at the beginning of last year?
[color=#006600][/color]

That person you quoted was right. They just want a dummy.
Why can't they support Peter Obi who has shown willingness to work?
Maybe they have forgotten how the country protested especially in the northern region against GEJ government.
It seems there are some forces that want the country to remain in an archaic system?
Tinubu has shown that he's no push over and himself is a master of the 9ja kind of politics.
They should wait till he Finishes he's duration of government.
During GEJ time though things were better, but at the same time there were a lot of wastages and leakages in the country's resources.
We can do better by electing the right person.
Religion and tribalism will keep affecting the decision making of people in electing the right ones.
My best advice is for every region to manage themselves. Let those who like Godfatherism and archaic ways of life should be left to do their things, while others can do what's best for them.
Why is the UK not one country? You think the whites don't know what's best for them?
Due to nobody has the real zeal to make things work because it's nobody's property, it will be difficult for things to work effectively.
Greed and wickedness won't make people think properly.

Lol. If this report was meant to be a PR stunt or testing of the murky political waters a second time by GEJ’s supporters, they did a rather poor job of it.

The underlying message in this report is that fPGEJ can be controlled (PBAT, who they thought they would “own” isn’t kowtowing to the North) by the northern political elite; a GEJ government benefits the north (a PBAT admin doesn’t benefit the north especially, contrary to their expectations), the same northerners who were there, quiet & uninterested in getting fPMB to sustain the Almajiri schools built by GEJ in the north, don’t want to own up to their own systemic failures but are looking for a “cleaner” in GEJ to help them clean the mess they created! Finally, what this report didn’t say but is very obvious is that the northern elite while preferring power to supposedly remain in the South for another 4yrs after PBAT’s first term, they’re more comfortable with it shifting to the South-south rather than the Southeastern part: question is why? In other words, the northern elite cannot trust an Igbo man with power! If not, instead of going back to the stone (GEJ) they rejected if they’re truly dissatisfied with a PBAT government, they would’ve built consensus around someone like PO who against all odds, came 3rd in a hotly contested election despite contesting on the platform of a political party without “structure” & without the support of power brokers.

I hope fPGEJ can see through their hypocrisy & call their bluff but if he doesn’t, it means PO may not contest in 2027 & risk incurring the eternal wrath of his “Obidient” mob or contest against his former leader (seeing his desperation, he’ll run even if it means running against GEJ) & both of them fighting over who takes 2nd & 3rd position in the race.
Jonathan should respect himself
If he contests, he won't have any vote in Igboland
It is Obi for me
If not Obi, let Tinubu continue

The Only reason North is moving mad is the greed of Yorubas that's all

South and middle belt can decide to rotate the president among us till North have sense

But North is so sure they can offer Yorubas Vice and they would betray

That's all nothing more nothing less

South is majority if you call koji, kwara and Benue North then you are joking

In fact Benue, koji kwara, Abuja, plateaus all vote with South

Nassarawa, taraba, 50% of Kaduna, 60% of adamawa vote alone with south

So in what way is North majority

The last I checked,it's the Igbos that have always been rolling in hay with the north and playing second fiddle.

History is replete with these facts!!

NCNC/NPC even after awo had already pledged his allegiance to zik but zik went behind and succumbed to the north.

Same Igbos supported the continued domination by the north in the 2nd republic sagari/ekweme in the NPN against even their own zik and awo a fellow southerner.

Same Igbos were in cahoots with the quasi northern military establishment and truncated the 3rd republic by instigating and supporting the annulment of Nigeria's best election to date....ending another Yoruba man's quest in the name of MKO abiola.

Same Igbos supported and entrenched the quasi northern/military establishment metamorphosed into the PDP against core southern interest.

Now another Yoruba is there representing a true neo liberal ideology that can mitigate the hydra headed dichotomy between the north and the south socio politically.....yet the Igbos still wouldn't let the man breath because they feel he is the cause of their problems as they have always blamed the SW for their woes.

The northern leaders are just selfish, wanting someone that won't spend more than a tenure in office, not minding the future of Nigeria. What a selfish leaders!

My thoughts as well. I will vote obi any day and any time, but if Jonathan decides to run, I will also suggest our beloved obi step down so that Jonathan can chase away this calamity call Tinubu.




But the North ganged up to drag Jonathan out

He should just mind his business and stay out of this one

Even we in the East won't support him

Do you know the kind villainy we surfered for him in the East?

We will use wisdom and not play into anyone s hand

After all the North chased same Jonathan away

And brought calamity on Nigerians

Now they want to eat there cake and have it

Igbos should calculate there moves wisely and smartly
And not allow anyone play them like a puppet on the strings

I don talk my own finish

Of course, they want a dummy that they can push around. Tinubu has shown them pepper.

This is good news for we the BATists. So the small votes that Bitter Hero Beer Obituary got the other time will be shared with Goatluck Jonathan in 2031. Definitely, it is the god of Politics Emilokan JAGABAN that is sponsoring this move.

Show them pepper by actually working not throwing everyone into more poverty

GEJ no even get the strength to dey drag this kin thing again. He is mentally tired to do this. Same North that betrayed him after Yaradua's death, now they wanna use him like a disposable tool again. He should be smarter than this



As for this sectional North, Its all wild imaginations till they get beaten in their own game again

A stamp from Sultan and Emir Sanusi would sway the whole almajiri vote behind APC again.

In a delicate period like this, we need a strong man and not some weakling that was manipulated all through by Stella Oduah,NOI and Diezani



Stop this dead on arrival sermon, it reeks of selfishness and wickedness. Be particular about Nigerian getting better for all and forget about what they want to use him for. You don't want GEJ but want Tinubu right? Na wa o

While I doubt that GEJ will run again as I prefer we try PO, if GEJ decides to run, his presidency will achieve 2 things:

1. End Atiku’s presidential bid finally
2. End the calamity of 2015 when we put power into the hands of greedy, corrupt, tribal bigots who destroyed all the progress made over the years, for selfish gain

If GEJ joins the 2027 race, then I’ll ask PO to drop his political ambition. He can work with GEJ to help strengthen democracy for the next election

Other than that, it’s PO all the way
Wike we be in a tight corner

Isn't it obvious that the North is trying to play a fast one on the South?
If they liked good governance, they would have replaced Buhari with Atiku in 2019. Did they do so? No.
So why replacing Tinubu with Jonathan in 2027?
Why not PO who can rule for two terms?
