By Segun Ayobolu Given the strong feelings evoked in the South-East by the perceived imperative of a President of Igbo extraction succeeding President Muhmmadu Buhari in 2023, it is understandable that the presidential aspiration of Mr. Peter Obi, presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP), has gained considerable traction particularly among youths in the region. But then, the demand in some quarters that the presidency ought by right to be conceded to the South-East in 2023 is of little practical import in a multi-party liberal democratic system like ours, which…

By Harris Chuma Odili The stage is set, the dogs are being let loose in batches, they have been charged to go out there and destroy every good will, and human capital currently enjoyed by the waves making Presidential candidate of Labour Party, Mr Peter Obi. No one goes to war with the Jagaban of Southwest politics with ordinary bear hands. You must be fully armed intellectually, and otherwise; you must be ready to use every media channels known to man.

By Elda David Kehinde Samuel Leaving the All Progressive Congress (APC) and their religious insensitivity, I see no reason they should be voted into public office again at any levels. Muhammadu Buhari has been a complete failure of a President. I recently fell ill and had a lot of free time in my hands so I decided to binge-watch all the video interviews I could see of Atiku Abubakar, Peter Obi, and Bola Tinubu. Peter Obi is truly genuine, and he understands what governance is about, Peoples Democratic Party (PDP)…

There is fire on the mountain And nobody seems to be on the run Oh, there is fire…

By Chiwuike Uba Recently, I had a conversation with someone and in that conversation, it was very evident that the person was not feeling fulfilled, as if something was missing. In retrospect, I found that this person had expressed the same sentiment on a number of occasions. When I asked the reasons for this feeling, I was told: ‘I am destined for something greater. I want to do something different in my life, and sometimes I have no idea what I want or why I’m unfulfilled’. The truth is most…

By Blossom Martins I am one of the frontiers for Peter Obi for President…I am using every experience I have gathered over the years as a PR professional and a broadcast media journalist to drive this vehicle. This has to be the greatest youthful electoral participation Nigeria has ever witnessed, the people finally woke up. I am very optimistic about this journey and the fight to save Nigeria. The days are gone when we use the terminology “Your vote doesn’t count;” “Every election is rigged…” bla bla bla! We ain’t…
