Just take a glance on the piece of shit you wrote here.
All the candidate OBJ has ever supported might have failed not excluding himself. But you see the only one Tinibu ever supported at national level which i believe you know, was a collosal failure, and if you think Tinubu at his present age would perform any better than Buhari then i want u to think again.
I won't throw shades at you because you're not supporting the candidate i'm supporting but i believe you want a better Nigeria. And i know for sure that though nothing is guaranteed that one of the candidate is more qualified to rule Nigeria and i know u know who that candidate is and he is the person i'll vote for.
I'll choose the candidate that has taken a bold step not to bribe any delegate in aquisition of his presidential ticket.
I'll choose the candidate that never held the state he governed to ransom even after leaving office.
I'll choose the candidate that choose to run for the presidency not just because he believes that it's his turn to be president.
I'll choose the candidate that majority of Educated Nigerian youths are all glamouring for.
And lastly i don't want to be among the 50m youths that will be recriuted into the army and been fed cassava and agbado on a daily why the children of the proposer of this plan are not even residing in Nigeria.
Imagine recriuting 50m youths into the army at this age when other countries are already thinking of ways to build robots that will serve as armies.

Try and stay on point, I simply said an endorsement from Obasanjo has historically spelt doom for this country, this is a fact, every bad president since Obasanjo left office has had the endorsement of Obasanjo, even Buhari. If there has been a good president endorsed by Obasanjo please feel free to share his name otherwise I am not interested in who you are supporting or here to talk about who I am voting for. Stay on topic, the topic is Obasanjo!!! Obasanjo has endorsed EVERY civilian president since 1979 that actually ascended to power and they have ALL been failures!!!

The reality of the 3 front runners is that no supporter is in any position to criticize any of the other candidates so just support your candidate and let us have peace. All I said is it is a historical fact that anyone Obasanjo endorses always fails. And by the way he had this reputation in yoruba land even before the return of democracy in 1999.

Peter Obi is a no no for many northerners for the simple fact that we know igbos have an innate, inbuilt hatred of anything hausa fulani and muslims. Any mention of anything hausa or islam they yap us and call us names. U cannot compare niger deltans and igbos, Niger Deltans are very accommodative, friendly and they look at muslims and our mode of worship as may ne just strange or sth new but they don't just out of nowhere hate us like that. A northerner will be far comfortable with a south south person over and over again. So is kind of a taboo for us to vote an igbo. We won't begrudge him becoming president but not with my vote

Obasanjo the snake.

He is never known to support his own people.

In 1989, he put his weight behind Shagari against his own brother, Awolowo, despite Awolowo being more competent and politically experienced.

And then, there is his agelong grudge with Tinubu.

How old are you? Were you born during Obasanjo's presidency.
Can you honestly compare Nigeria under Obasanjo and the clueless terrorist sympatizer Buhari.

We were 40% bad during OBJ.

We are 80% bad during Buhari.

Therefore, OBJ is a saint. shocked

I wonder what or who you refer to as una.You prolly think any one who doesn't agree with your line of thinking is Igbo.

You don't understand what I'm saying. No culture is perfect.
When I use the word "transformed" it's deliberate.
We are first Humans before being Yoruba. Even being omoluabi isn't automatic, there's deliberateness.

Even as bad as many say Igbos are,there are detribalized ones amongst them if not more than us.
If anything at all, we Yorubas are more conscious about our ethnic group than the igbos.

Did you notice most Yorubas that are against Obi are doing so simply because he is Igbo NOTHING more.
Whereas the igbos against Tinubu have other reasons other than Tinubu being Yoruba.


I'm not saying we don't have bigots amongst Igbos But to be honest with you, We Yorubas detest igbos more until Jesus works on our hearts.

Let's stop these thinking abeg.
Point of correction sir, I don’t hate the Igbos. Secondly, “Even as bad as many say Igbos are,there are detribalized ones amongst them” those are definitely your words sir, I never said it anywhere that the Igbos were bad, the insane majority among them are the ones I’m referring to and they actually know themselves and lastly @bolded, so mr omoluabi, you’re saying we the intelligent majority are hating on mr Obi for no reason other than being an Igbo man while the Igbos have enough and justifiable reasons to hate and lie against the persons of BAT and anyone who dares to show him supports, right?
So they have reasons to start threatening to kill, burn, maim and intimidate anyone who openly shows support for candidates from other regions, huh?
How on earth did you arrive at the conclusion that majority of yorubas are hating on him because he is Obi while the Igbo Jews have many reasons to hate Tinubu, bros na peace I choose this evening, so please, let’s maintain it that way. That statement is annoying but it’s fine, I’ll let it slide.
What has BAT done wrong as a TYPICAL Nigerian politician that Obituary is not guilty of to justify hating on him while sparing Obi?
And what has Obi done differently that makes him outstanding?
Answer these two questions sir and I will tell you a few things that makes BAT a different breed. Mind you, they are all thieves, I’ve been saying this over and over but it’s unfortunate that we, the youth are rooting for them but please, stop saying I hate Obi because he is a Jew. I just don’t see him as being capable enough judging from his past antecedents as a former governor and the hype around him is quite unfortunate and appalling to say the least. This was how we were hyping Buhari and here we are today.

Yes,that's your only excuse you and your type have...that's the only reason you and your bunch have for voting for any aspirant but Peter Obi- that if Obi wins,they will laff at the yorubas!!!! What a shame.

If Obi doesn't win,you will mock and after mocking,you go back home and everybody goes to the same market. Everyone buys fuel at same price.
Everyone travels same road....goes same banks,attends same schools.

A typical Yoruba man sees nothing wrong in what baba Obj is doing but just imagine this was an elder statesman in the East rooting and beating drums of support for a southwesterner or a northerner, hell would be let loose, his head would have been chopped off for being a saboteur cheesy

This is not time to play and don't be a liar.
Every southerner rallied round Abiola and Obj when they contested and won. Abiola had some crucial votes from the east and Obj had very significant vite from the SE. Nobody said anything or did anything.
Now sensible people like Obj and the Afenifere elders are saying and doing the right and are already attacking the Igbos for what they haven't even done!

And truth be told,the only people attacking and calling for the heads of the likes of Obj and the Afenifere elders are your own yoruba people!

Be very careful cos God is watching all of us.

After the elections, we'd settle our differences.

I went to a programme today that was 95% yoruba, almost everybody (at least 100% of all those I had conversations with) are rooting for Peter Obi.
Yorubas are not tribalistic, Yorubas are lovers of Good Things, Yorubas hate suffering! Majority of them are going for Peter Obi.

Yes bros but if you were attentive enough during your school days while you were learning history, you would realize that the support he got then from Igbos was because his arch rival was a northern man and it was ultimately a case of "the enemy of my enemy" cool
This so called opponent was widely supported by the southwesterners tho.

Well we voted obj Because he is a Yoruba and we see them as our southern brothers. We igbos will always support our yorubas brothers projects.

Is OBJ an Hausa man.

Two of your sons are contesting and Igbos decided to support the one they prefer, how is that a problem?

Is like Igbos complaining that Yorubas Voted Zik instead of Ojukwu.

There is no problem just do not misrepresent it that you supported Yoruba you had no choice. That was the only thing on the menu after Obasanjo defeated Ekwueme and others

You are wrong

We had a choice in 2003: Ojukwu (APGA), Jim Nwobodo (UNPP), Ike Nwachukwu (NDP), Arthur Nwankwo (PMP)

Yet we voted your son (OBJ) again even when the King of the whole Igbo land (Eze Igbo Gburugburu) in the person of Ojukwu was on ballot.

Heaven will judge any Yoruba that accuses Igbos of Tribalism.

We know the tribe that are highly tribalistic in Nigeria.

You have never reasoned beyond tribalism anyway.

Nobody is surprise. Even the North knows the reason you supported them in 2015 and they will pay you back in 2023.

Watch the North disappoint you come 2023 and then you will get sense.
