People are collecting PVC yen yen yen

Who told you those collecting pvc will vote for your candidate?

I don't see the drug baron winning new votes.

You really think that the average Nigerian is motivated to go and vote for APC again?

We were motivated for APC 4 years ago and 8 years ago. They failed us! Many like us who voted for the APC in the hopes of them starting something new are what you call "dissatisfied voters" and you can bet your ass, a significant portion of us are OBIdient right now.

APC don show us shege, they've rubbed mud in our faces.

Me and Ibime were the strongest buhari supporters on this thread both in 2015 and 2019.

Only people like that vulture griller, mannabbq vulture griller are still making noise for that dead party.

While he doubled down on his support in the face of abject failure of the party. W
We are moving on to a new hope. A fresh party. And you can smell the breath of political revolution in the country.
Watch and see

Tinubu - 1,271 votes

raumdeuter:


I wonder how Osinbajo will face the APC going forward. Too many of the candidates banked on being Buharis chosen. People who had no political structure want to slug it out with Tinubu

Osinbajo is like the Eke bird after downing a big meal challenged his chi to a battle

But one thing is that Jagaban is very forgiving. Even people like Obanikoro Ogunlewe etc that fought and insulted him are back in APC?
Almost all former SW governors are in APC even those who did terms under PDP

Tinubu understood the term "no permanent friend or foe in politics." Tinubu will work with obasanjo to achieve his goal if needed.

It's one of the reasons he is still the only standing political god father in nigeria today. while others will be whupping up sentiment and tears, jagaban will be scheming. then some people start hating and wondering why he is so successful.

Nigeria needs someone like that right now honestly.

Am I pouring water on rocks?
For God's sake, I am referring you to numbers!!!

Nigerians have been largely apathetic to voting.

Just 15% of the population voted last election! FIFTEEN PERCENT!!!

Think about this for a minute. You're 100 people in a class. Only 15 people out of that 100 voted for the class Rep. 85 did not vote.

Now out of the 100 classmates, 45 people were the only ones who registered to vote for the class Rep.

Again 45 people registered to vote, out of 45 people, 15 voted.

Now you have a situation where 20 more people have registered to vote to take the total of registered voters to 65 people. And the 20 new people that are voting are overwhelmingly for one candidate.

Is that number not high enough to overshadow the initial 15 people that voted previously??

Please read the above again to really understand my point.

READ THE ABOVE AGAIN.

How you think all the newly registered voters are for Obi is beyond me...Social media popularity is quite different from reality...You don't think they're people who are collecting their PVCs just to ensure they vote for Atiku or Tinubu?

Once you pick a side to a debate, you hardly ever want to see things from another persons point of view...

God knows I'm trying to hold myself tight in telling you what's on my mind.

You mean Nigeria needs a continuation of the failed economic policies in Nigeria.

Are you seriously not tired of what these 2 parties have served Nigeria in 22 years??

You really need more of this? Politics of greed, self interests, corruption at every level.

You think someone who is physically sick and paid 25 million naira to 2000 delegates did that from the abundance of his heart?

My brother get your head out of these evil men's ass. They don't deserve your support. They support a system that is configured against you.

Tinubu would only codify corruption in our system. Please stop this rubbish. We need something new. I rest my case.

The reason why we had cabals running the country is simply because Buhari is not a smart politician. At some point, the cabals began to interfere with the work of his ministers and other appointees, dishing out instructions here and there...In fact, it got so bad that they existed different cabals...

One thing I know Tinubu does well is that he steers the ship himself with advise from a trusted few however they'll never be as power as the cabal under Buhari.

Another thing about him is that he will get the best hands on board and give them the opportunity to bring their experience to bare...

praise your own tribe leader and insult others and you expect those you insulted to do your bidding and not go into defensive mode or even vote against you just to spite you.

Okoto meow! Oga this format don cast.

There is nothing I did not say about buhari. That he is his own man. That he is not new to the system.

That he is the one to control men like danjuma and the old military cabal. That he cannot work under anyone's influence. That he has proven himself with his 7 million votes won earlier and he was as ready as anyone can be to lead this nation.

That was all RUBBISH in the end.
I'm not calling for it again.
PDP and APC are one and the same.

No my friend.


i think, Candidate that already ruled a mini Nigeria called Lagos very successfully.

Candidate that turned mini Nigeria to 5th largest economy in Africa and one of the most SECURED metropolitan city of the same population magnitude in the world without huge oil money.

Candidate that acts more and talk less. Unlike some political Ralph raggnick like someone perfectly put it.

The most visionary politician in Nigeria by far.

The man who held apc together and defeated a sitting president.

the list is long.



if any other candidate achieved half of what tinubu achieved in lagos, i will be campaigning for that person.

BlueRayDick:


I think it’s foolishness expecting Osinbajo to step down for Tinubu from the onset.

I mean all these stories of betrayal makes absolute no sense to me.

To me I see the scenario like this; Let’s assume after NYSC one of my senior back then in school now works in a big 4 and helps submit my CV after which I did well and was given the job.

Fast forward to years later we’ve worked in different companies and now there’s a very juicy position in a big firm ( let’s say for the role of a GM) and we are both qualified for the job. Only for me to meet him in the waiting area when we both went for the last stage of the recruitment process. Only for my former boss to expect me to back off cos I’m his protege and should not be a clog in his wheel to getting that juicy position we are both interviewing for.

Do u expect me to turn back at that waiting area and burst my chance of getting the job?( no matter how slim my chance of getting the job is)

Is it not right that we both attempt the interview and see whose luck might shine at the end of the day ? If I don’t step down and go ahead with the interview does it make me a betrayer for not appreciating my years under my boss’ tutelage?

First why Osinbajo should never have contested against Tinubu
1. Osinbajo had no structure of his own. Structures win primary politics.
Osinbajo literally became who he is today because he used Tinubus structure. Osinbajo cannot even win his Polling unit in VGC.

Osinbajo is like a guy using his brothers clothes and car to oppress in the neighborhood, but when the brother now wants to use the same clothes and car. and he refused. The brother will simply collect his structure back and left with his tattered clothes and bicycle

Which politician can Osinbajo point to that will be loyal to him? Osinbajo has spent 7yrs as VP, who has he made? Partisan politics is about taking sides even if you lose. When Edo matter was going on. Tinubu took sides with Oshiomole vs Obaseki, They lost but guess who is in charge of Edo APC structure and delegates? Oshiomole. Where was Osinbajo in all of these? He was playing neutral.
When APC was having issues in any state Tinubu will put his influence, Osinbajo will keep quiet. How do you buy loyalty that way

Because politics globally follows a pattern, I will give you an example in American politics, In 2016 Biden was Obamas Vice for 8yrs and could have run for the Democratic ticket but the "Emi lokan" of Democratic party Hillary Clinton was also interested, So Biden had to look away from that process since he was planning to use the same Democrat Centrist structure that was loyal to the Clintons

In 2020 Biden came out and was able to use the same Centrist structure when Hillary was no longer on the ticket

Congrats to the master strategist, the dollar man, I neva doubt his ability to wriggle around obstacles/ challenges. Now, the choice is yours to make Nigerians, be wise. You already endured enough over the last decade.

Who is my candidate? I don’t have any since I can’t vote and I not particularly sold just yet on any candidate. These guys have expended a ton of money to get here, I don’t expect any prudent use of funds when a president is voted.

If BAT was younger and healthier, I will campaign for him, I witnessed first hand what he did for Lagos, despite his greed (all politicians are criminals in my books). Atiku had my support last time out but as of today, I don’t feel the same way I feel about him 8 years ago. Obi is dynamic and a breath of fresh air, I do like him but he lacks the reach and I for some reason I don’t trust him or any of the two to address the insecurity bedeviling the nation.

I love the new passion witnessed amongst Nigerian youths in the South, I wish it was nationwide including the North and I sincerely hope it translates into long queues on Election Day, irrespective of the outcome.

I really hope for the first time Nigerians can shun and resist trading their votes for “Alubasa/ fuel/ packaged garri/ sugar and groundnut. Once again, great job @Donjazet job on sensitizing Nigerians about the power of their PVC despite the distractions and criticisms. At the end of the day, this will decided by dollars and the North, except the South pulls an “Unbelievable” which is not impossible.

Be wise Nigerians, it’s up to you now!

donjazet:


No p. Ibime would send it you via any means comfortable to you.

For the sake of clarity let me explain the bet we are having here :

1. If Peter Obi doesn’t have majority votes in 4 states of the 36 states in naija ,I get 20k from u.

2. If Peter Obi is declared disqualified either by INEC or the court, I get 20k cos that way he definitely isn’t winning 4 states without being on the ballot.

3. If Peter Obi ties with other aspirants in 4 states out of 36 states of the federation I still get ur 20k.

I Hope u understand these terms before money gum for board .

People will just wake up and be analyzing politics like children.

bobo chicago is finished after the interview bla bla bla. tuehhh!!!!

The interview is even bigger to tinubu more than people could have imagined. those that were planning to cheat him were quickly reminded and they all fell back in line.

Now it's time to do what he did in Lagos to Nigeria.
hopefully he restructures the country so a political region wont be deciding who becomes president.

That interview was the sorosoke moment for Tinubu

ribbit:

I have to give to him: Tinubu is one of the greatest tacticians in Nigeria’s political history. How he maneuvered past the machinations of a SITTING president to win the primaries against all odds, would be studied extensively by future historians and political scientists.

with tinubu running things, you can be sure, it is an end to cabal. you wont have someone in the corner call the shot for him.

infact, thanks for opening my eyes to that.

There's a reason why Fayemi and Amosun step down and called him our leader.

Even Akeredolu of Ondo has always insisted that Tinubu is their political leader in the SW.

Tinubu contributed in making Fayemi, Amosun Ajimobi Aregbesola Oshiomole and even Mimiko governors

donjazet:


Oga, pick a side and declare your candidate. Stop sitting on a fence.

Oga stop attacking other aspirants like a street tout will do...Be civil in your campaign.

I am all for power to shift to the South. I am quite comfortable with any of Obi or Tinubu but you Obi supporters have to do better.

I go on Twitter and all I see is PO supporters attacking anyone that doesn't support Obi. For an undecided voter, that attitude alone is enough to see me have a rethink.

Obi wasn't mad when he advised you and your likes to keep the campaign for his election issue-based...Quit being emotional.

If you are planning to attend the interview using your boss influence, his recommendation letter and the slot allocated to your boss, what is the wisdom in that?

You go for an interview presenting your boss structure while your boss is also in the lobby to interview for the same job
