@Ebenezic1438 @PastorMarvy Govt in the US don’t own stadiums. They are all private. They get concession though in taxes et al.

[THINK YORUBA FIRST @ThinkYoruba_1st]

You heard Yoruba language inside a Nupe song
and thought you were imagining it. NO YOU'RE NOT!
The Nupe and the Yoruba have been connected for over 500 years, through war, blood and culture. Ṣàngó one of the early Aalafin had a Nupe mother, her name was Torosi.

The lgunnuko masquerade celebrated in Lagos and Ogun state came from Patigi in Niger State. Towns like Lafiagi and Pategi in Kwara State, have intertwined and inter-married with Yorùbá people.

Two people so intertwined that even their music carries each other's language. Some connections are older than memory and music remembers what history books forget.

@DaddyTwinzz I know no Yoruba subgroups that do the version of what Igbo calls “Omugwo”. What Yoruba subgroup that I grew up with in Ondo and Oyo states is an elderly woman, in the family, mostly the wife’s mom come to help take care of the new born. It is not a tradition more of a necessity.

@UchePOkoye However they supported the govt of OBJ after that and eventually voted him for 2nd term. That context need to be taken into consideration.

[peppersoup @aquinasmd]

@UchePOkoye South West had to choose between Olu Falae and Olu Obasanjo. They preferred the first Olu in 1999 mostly because of Abiola issue. Didn’t see why he had to profit from Abiolas death that allowed 2 South westerners to run for election- unprecedented.

@lorddrey Nigerian armed forces (check history) has proven itself to be force against other African countries. It is regarded as a regional force. In conventional armed conflict, it has won against ALL adversaries within its sphere of influence in conventional war.

@Montero1016 According to nzeogwu, one of hos past interviews before he was arrested

[peppersoup @aquinasmd]

@General_Somto The major battle at Ore changed the war from police action to a war. Taking territory in Midwest and into the west changed that from war of survival to war of conquest. Maybe it was meant for negotiation.

[peppersoup @aquinasmd]

Let’s assume the first shot was from the Nigerian side , why did the Biafran troop crossed over the Midwest region and try making their way to the west before getting stopped at Ore in the present day Ondo state? I would think they would engage the Nigerian troop where the first shot was fired.

[peppersoup @aquinasmd]

@DrFolaseye I would think NDC would show the way in announcing results promptly as they expected the electoral body to do it. maybe their supporters are the ones saying that. Just a thought

[peppersoup @aquinasmd]

@Chrisnonsocr7 @winexviv US president does not appoint the electoral bodies. Elections are conducted by states. Federal election commission only focus on rules making and enforcing non direct election rules like contributions and reporting.

[peppersoup @aquinasmd]

@happysisinene @winexviv So what will you suggest?

[peppersoup @aquinasmd]

@josephephraim60 @winexviv So the president should not appoint his team? I bet you also will say he shouldn’t appoint his ministers. It should not be about a person but the office. Will you want your choice of president not to be able to appoint his security team?

[peppersoup @aquinasmd]

@winexviv So who should appoints the inec chairman?
Through election? State nomination?

[peppersoup @aquinasmd]

The sad part of this is people not seeing how this is the same tactics they are blaming the other party for. All the vote buying done through inducement are not done by the flag bearer alone. It doesn’t matter if people contributed to do this, it is still being done. You can’t ding the others of doing it while trying to explain this sear

[peppersoup @aquinasmd]

Call him a spent force. He is still a force. The ideal situation is for him Obi and the rest to work together. That hasn’t happened. It changes the calculation of the election. The election leans Tinubu with Obi and atiku on the ballot if you decide to use the precedent of 2023. It is what it is.

[peppersoup @aquinasmd]

@DonAzag I would think you guys will post what she wrote and not just the headline and byline.
Regardless of Obi being the main opposition or not, the opposition is fragmented which is helpful to the existing govt. it doesn’t matter what you think of Atiku, he is still a force.
