Update: #EndBadGovernanceInNigeria Protest 8/1/24 [Official 9ja 2023 Presidential Elections Thread]
- Thread starter Ugo Ogugwa
- Start date
Imagine a country where it is not taboo to straight up say that a whole region wont vote for someone solely based on where the person is from.
That country is Nigeria.
There’s no point in trying to fix Nigeria. Igbophobia runs too deep:
Peter Obi's VP pick.
A thought. For those of you in the Diaspora and at home who have totally given up on a working Nigeria, keep in mind that many who are registering the vote today share your views.
One difference may be that the combination of the content of Obi's and Baba-Ahmeds revelations and the energy from the youth have given them hope.
I recommend being open to supporting the youth while not abandoning your core principles which drive your belief that Nigeria is not worth building.
Keep in mind, with the exclusion of a few, many are actually benefiting by way of being social media personalities who highlight the evils of Nigeria all day.
Many who are now giving voting a chance were part of those who gained their news from these sources in the past. I am included.
Personally, I cannot go against sense until it becomes nonsense as well as the will of the youth as long as it is not nonsense.
In closing, i have not seen many profiting from having hope in a better Nigeria but i have seen many profiting from consistently peddling hopelessness and/or the status quo.
My mom who has been waiting for Nigeria to improve by taking the route Ghana took is now excited about this save Nigeria movement. So i recommend at the least showing agility by way of an open mind.

Bola Ahmed Tinubu: From Drug Lord To Presidential Candidate
From Gary, Indiana to Abuja, Nigeria via a stopover in Chicago. Here is how the bagman for a 1990's Chicago drug ring has become a frontrunner for Nigeria's most powerful office. And then some.

It’s now unclear
Tinubu fukked up with the Muslim-Muslim ticket
All other major presidential tickets have a Christian as VP or Pres. candidate
