Let me ask you two questions
1: can Obi win as things stands rn?
2: Jonathan was president when my home town was scorched Anyii by the herdsmen
I remember when I came for holiday in Gboko finding our cousins at home, running away from herdsmen there, so my question now is, how would Obi do differently from what GEJ did

Yes, Obi has a path to winning the Presidency next year.

There is a reason virtually everyone or party that have dismissed him even some weeks ago, now see the election as a 3 horse race.

Obojuju:
God forbid that Tinubu and Shettima triumph at the 2023 presidential election and proceed to complete two terms. Power will thereafter be liable to rotate to Northern Nigeria, which will probably produce a Muslim. At the end of two terms of that person, following the two terms of Tinubu-Shettima and counting back to the two terms of Muhammadu Buhari, Nigeria’s presidency would have been occupied by a Muslim for pretty much a quarter of a century or for 27 out of 32 years going back to the administration of Umaru Musa Yar’Adua. Children born at the beginning of this period may end up with the impression that Nigeria is indeed an Emirate in which only Muslims are entitled to aspire to the highest office.
Unfortunately, Christians don’t get the message being passed by this action.
If it succeeds, in the next 8 years, political parties will only field Muslim candidates. They will tell you that if they present a Christian candidate, that they won’t win. That the North will not vote him, and they need northern votes to win. They will automatically sideline Christians in the politics of Nigeria. Then gradually, our laws begin to change towards a Muslim nation. The Hijab ruling is a clear example. Christians better stand your ground in this election or be eliminated. Once they vex, they attack churches and kill worshipers and its normal. They stone Christians in the name of blasphemy and its normal.

They negotiate with terrorists to release only Muslim girls and keep the Christian. Don’t use because of ethnicity and destroy your faith ethnicity is only in the world, you believe is beyond this world. Those attacked in Owo church, were not attacked because they are Yoruba, they were attacked because they are Christians. Those attacked in southern Kaduna are not attacked because they are Hausa’s, but because they are Christians.

Copied!

Show me an election buhari win in Benue, plateau since 1999

If APC/Buhari had won Benue, plateau and Abuja, we won't be needing SW votes.. the issue is not winning NC convincingly, that's why 1 other region is needed in the south.. take it or leave it, I'm a northerner.. northern Christians have never voted along with us both presidential and gubernatorial
nameo:


Actually, the President that the Middle Belt and North Central voted for(a majority) has always won the Presidential elections since 1999. They have always determined the winner of the elections. For instance, it was when the NC/MB voted for Buhari, along with a majority of the SW, that Buhari won. Buhari had been a perpetual loser until then even with the vast majority of NE and NW votes since 2003.

In 2023, due to the peculiar nature

lastly, we have been having security issues for long even before the apc came in power but you will also agree that the situation is worse now

Now you are made a pure point
If you read some of my comments here, I said if we Christians are serious, we should cast all our votes to a single candidate and our leaders are yet to give us direction
I have always been a rebel to our leaders but this time, who ever they asked us to vote for, that’s who I will vote for, minus Tinubu of course

For obi to win, needs to target the northern Christians votes, he needs to lobby them all, but currently he’s doing something else, he should contact Babachir and Dogara ASAP before Atiku win them over, that will guarantee him 25% he needs in those Northern states, that’s if he can win the Christians votes in the south, we are ready to give bulk votes this time

Obi also needs to give shishi if he wants to win

I don't have prove, but I heard it from a very reliable source

However, PO is not competent in terms of what he has achieved as governor, nothing special about his tenure, unlike Tinubu on what he has achieved in Lagos state
nameo:


No northerner was asked to get an ID card when Obi was Governor. I repeat, that did not happen. This was just a propaganda to play the religious card against Obi in the Upper North. It did not happen. Obi himsself and the northern Muslim Commisioner of Police has confirmed this and challenged anybody with contrary evidence to present it. And i want to challangne you to prevent any such evidence if you have it here. Dont forget that i said i wanted to engage you in a decent conversation.

How does confining El Rufai to a hotel during an election tribal or religious bais!!! Like i dont just get it. El Rufai was restricted by the Police as a political interest just as other Govs and politician from different parties and regions of Nigeria in that election. How is it anti-religious? Is El rufai a Prophet of God? Plzz enlighten me.

As for the killings of northerners in Anambra. I dont have info on that. But northerners have unfortunately been killed in the south(including Anambra) just as southerners have been killed in the north. It is very unfortunate situation that we Nigerians are well aware of. But i dont see how that makes the state Govs tribal or religious bigots

Over the years, the Northern Christians are seen as second-class citizens by our northern brothers the Muslims they suppressed our population And inflated their population which they use as a tool to shortchange us politically. The highest position a Christian is allowed to hold in the north is the collective North is chairmanship position of Arewa consultative forum, which is nothing.

Voting Tinubu will mean one thing; we’ve finally accepted the position they placed us, and it will finally relegate us to second fiddle and we know what that means. Even by having Christian VPs and presidents they still pressed our necks day and night, what would now be our fate if both the president and the Vp are Muslim?

I rather vote for Peter obi whom I despise so much than vote for Tinubu whom I like so much

I urge you brethren in the north campaigning for Tinubu to rethink our future is more important than what we’ll gain now

In 2023 Tinubu and most Nigerians will learn a thing about the Christians

Mr Kyase thanks for the write up, North is knw for persecution of christian by all means once they get their hands on anything, by the way I quote the Apc vp candidate saying " they will run and inclusive government' but they forgot that the government has chose to place some people as second class citizens on it own, the issue if I must say is not about the northern christian is about christianity general in nigeria be you south, west, east, north, let joins hands together to fight this dirty and insane act, it is a test to knw whether it will work or not, KADUNA tested it and it works, and still in play, but by the grace of God it will resist in 2023 in that same KADUNA, in Nigeria it will not work, I have been a fan of Tinubu movement that Ticket of same Religion show that Tinubu himself does not that fact that north don't believe in other people rather than themselves, the point is that he made the wrong choice and that will lead he to Defeat by God grace we cannot accommodat another Turkish in nigeria

Buhari won Benue in 2015. And got over 40% in Plateau, Taraba, Nasarawa, FCT and Adamawa. He also won other NC states at almost 60%(Kwara, Kogi, Niger). This was one of the main reasons he won that election. You can also add Adamawa and Gombe from the NE to it

the problem is how apc will use him to get votes at the national level cos many are supporting the priest with his party and not the candidate.

Stop making it look like the northern Christians have generally ever voted for a Muslim candidate both presidential and gubernatorial, you can deceive the southerners but certainly not us!!

You don't trust us too that's why ur voting pattern never favoured us, ur just crying because we always have the upper hand, not that u like Us! Is Sgf boss Mustapha not a Christian? undecided

I'm just going to say something here whether people agree with me or not. Northern Christians don't learn and would never learn. Unfortunately, 2023 is going to put them in perpetual servitude forever to their Muslim brothers because majority of them (Christians), esp from middle belt, who are not happy with APC Muslim-Muslim ticket, will still turn around and vote for Atiku. Meaning, their Muslim brothers still win. There's a lot of meaning to this but I wouldn't bother to elaborate any further.

See eh, there is no proof or evidence cos there is none. It NEVER happened.

The only state in the SE that wanted to do ID was Imo under Okorocha but that didnt even fly. It never happened in ANambra.

Moreover, there is NOTHING that suggests that Obi is bigoted in any way. If you study him, you would realise that that is not his style. And I can understand that cos I believe he thinks in similar way as myself. Same reason I cannot be bigoted in any way.

Those of you guys up north that are afraid of Obi just cos he is Igbo should really not have any fears. Obi is about the most investigated Nigerian politicain today(even your leaders in Upper North have had him investigated- I hope you know that). If there is any thing really off-putting as regards bigotry, it would have been released to the public long ago.
