Why I Support Asiwaju by sgtponzihater1(m): 5:49pm On Aug 26, 2022
As a young boy in the late 90s in Lagos state, far away from the State of my birth. Not from a privileged home, but fuelled with a zeal to survive, we worked out ass off to get to the top, but poverty is limiting. You do so much and push as hard as you can, but money is still a real factor. Lagos became home, it provided an opportunity and it was the only hope of true social migration. It gave the guy in Mushin the feel that he could own a home in Ikoyi if he kept at it.

Good grade got me several secondary school offers, but the fees were too high for the low budget people to afford, so we skipped them. Last minute we walked into one of the Lagos state owned school, and they welcome us with open arms. Tinubu made schooling free, all I probably paid for was uniforms, a table and desk and PTA levies imposed by the teachers, but everything else was free, children were caught and arrested if they were found loitering the street during school hours, it was the golden age, things looked upward. I have fond memories of Asiwaju's Lagos. When it was time for WAEC, Asiwaju made it free, we could now save our strength for preparing for the exams rather than worry about how to pay for the exams . Thats a faint summary of my journey, the foundation that has now forged my becoming.

My state of birth did virtually nothing for me, but Tinubu's Lagos played a major part of what I have become, and shaped my view of the future. We do not bite the finger that fed us, we do not curse those who blessed us, but wear honour as a guard, give them their regard, and wait for our turn to shine.

I will not support Atiku because the man did nothing for me and my family. I will not support Peter Obi because he is probably a "political job man" and journeyman, who is seeking to use chaos as an opportunity to grab the power he so desperately seeks, I am almost certain he doesn't have much to offer.

Tinubu can transform Nigeria, He can replicate the Lagos story in the slums of Aba, and the crime prone streets of Modebe. He can curb migration and the incessant demand and Load on Lagos alone. Tinubu can make Oyo, Ekiti and Bayelsa as economically viable as Lagos.

I stand by truth, justice, and hope, and I am not swayed by the crowd.

This is my Asiwaju story, and I am loyal to the City boy.

It is obvious that the only campaign slogan by the APC and BAT's campaign team has been:
1. Peter Obi's Lies Bursted
2. Peter Obi's supporters are IPOB nembers".
3. Peter Obi is an online phenomenon.
4. Labour Party is a structureless party

In reality, the APC and Tinubu have created no content to campaign with towards 2023 Elections except 'Emilokan' to 'Olule'. The BAT team have nothing else to say and are fast going down the political drain to be out. Emilokan is fast turning to Olulè!

Why Is APC Not Concerned About Other Contestants?
They are not talking about Sowore that has contested for President over 3 times. They are not talking about Atiku that has contested over 5 times. They have been fixated on Peter Obi as though they are really scared of Peter Obi now.

In politics, you only attack your major opponent. This is why the APC has given little jibes on Atiku and none to Kwankwaso and other Presidential contestants. Their major focus of attack has been Peter Obi and the Labour party which says a lot.

It is noticed that they keep spewing blackmail and division, while Peter Obi is increasing in popularity in leaps and bound. The SE is in the cart, same as the SS. The NC has been added. The majority of SW Christian votes are already with Peter Obi.

The results from Lagos State may be a shocker to Tinubu and the APC. Even the henchmen of BAT like Mc Oluomo cannot help help him this time, there are no ballot boxes to snatch. Infact, once you snatch the ballot box or cause problems; the polling unit is in jeopardy, which will be detrimental to the few votes that Tinubu would have gotten there. However, Nigerians are also ready. Everyone can now afford hidden body cameras, so even the results from Lagos State may likely put Tinubu and APC out of the contest.

Social Media Impact
You will hear them tell you that Peter Obi can only win on Twitter. However In 2014, the APC used the Social Media, Twitter, Facebook, Blogs and others to defeat the PDP. At that time Nigerians on Social were not up to 25% of the voting population. In 2022, when the users of social media have tripled, they are now telling Nigerians that social media is no longer relevant. Who is fooling who? If in 2014 and 2019 Social Media was relevant to defeating PDP, how come it is no longer important according to them? The answer is simple. They have lost control of the Social Media platform to Peter Obi's Obidient movement. Peter Obi now controls about 70% of most SM platforms. We are moving to completely annihilate them on SM. The only few platform they still have a voice are places like Nairaland and some newspapers owned by Tinubu, where they can spew tribalistic vernoms.

Obi and Labour Party New Focus Areas
Peter Obi is now going to focus on Northern Christians who are already against APC. This is the place for full blown campaigns. Southern Kaduna, Bauchi State's Tafawa Balewa, Bogoro, Azare, and all Christians the politicians call minorities in Gombe State, Kebbi State, Sokoto State etc are coming out to vote for Peter Obi.

In Borno State, about 35% of the population are Christians. Added to about 20% who seek good governance. All we need is 25%. Even though Bornu is Shettima's home state, Peter Obi is sure to participate in sharing the votes in Bornu State with Shettima and Atiku. You do not expect Christians who suffer discrimination in Chibok and environs to vote for another Muslim, especially Shettima. Go to Potiskum, go to the hinterlands of Adamawa, Obi is their favourite Presidential candidate.

The Kano State they are talking about has over 500,000 Igbos living there and other indigenous Christians from Kano State. Same as Katsina, Zamfara Sokoto. Who do you think they are voting for? In Sokoto, no genuine Christian will vote APC, same as in Niger State and Nasarawa State. Where is Peter Obi not getting votes of at least 25% in the North? May be Jigawa and Katsina States.

The noise making Mallam El Rufai of Kaduna has gone into hibernation after his 2 million man march statement on Peter Obi backfired and has now snowballed into 2 million. Wait for tomorrow to see how far.

Governor Wike Is Their New God of Hope
Please, leave those whose hope for 2023 is on Wike, the man is just catching cruise. The same Wike they hated for 8 yrs, calling him names and accusing him of Christianization of Rivers state, is now their lord and saviour.

We do not put our hope in man. Our hope is in God Almighty. On February 25, 2023, Wike cannot even coerce his personal ADC nor his cooks to vote for anybody. If he is sharing money, we trust our brothers and sisters, they did it in Osun. Collect the money, N10k, N20k but vote for your candidate.

The new electoral act has rendered rigging at collation centres irrelevant. That was where these governors had power. Now that is gone. Thugs are as useless as used sanitary pads. If you cause problems, the results are cancelled which may lead to rerun. Wike can only influence his employees up to the time they leave home to vote. He cannot control who those people vote for.
Moereover, Tinubu may end up creating more trouble for himself with his romance with Wike. It is no gainsaying the fact the the North has no love for Wike. Same thing with Amaechi. If Omehia, Okpala, Dagogo-Jack, Secondus and Amaechi come together, Wike will be useless.

NB:
Watch out for those who only read headlines to start making mockery, posting rubbish, abusive languages etc. They are more of Tinubu's APC supporters and online urchins. APC used social media to win the PDP in 2015, but want to deceive themselves and some Nigerians that SM is not relevant again.
It is therefore important for the Nigerian masses to keep up the heat for LABOUR PARTY to win the 2023 PRESIDENTIAL ELECTIONS.

No problem bro. Everyone cannot support the same person. And if you choose to hate people on account of political affiliation it's your call. I am not a tribalist, as I am not from the same zone as Tinubu and not on his payroll. I am entitled to my vote, hate no one and I'm happy with your choice as well.
