I share some reasons for supporting Peter Obi, here. This is to not only reinforce our convictions as Obi’s supporters but also to clarify the enormity of significance that our individual choices carry. See below: ImageImageImageImage
First point continued: ImageImageImageImage
First point concluded: ImageImage
Other points: ImageImageImageImage
Conclusion: ImageImage
In summary, please vote for Peter Obi. I made an analysis criticizing BAT on my Instagram: @mr_possidez. I’ll do well to save it in a highlight.

A 2021 study showed that exposure to superior intelligence activates our threat detection system in the brain. The amygdala lights up when we encounter someone visibly smarter than us and it’s the same response we have to physical threats. It upsets us.
It’s not just a figure of speech when people say that intelligence hurts the ego. It literally triggers pain responses which make us sensitive. If people feel less intelligent around you, they either avoid you unconsciously, cheapen you to feel better or try to prove you wrong.
What’s interesting, is how people react to this feeling. They don’t say: oh! this people makes me feel stupid. They instinctively assume that the smarter person is looking down on them. Even if the person hasn’t said a word about it. People feel judged by the presence alone.

People would be better off dating their close friends. There’s usually a vibrant connection. But no, they’d rather go the end of the earth looking for a stranger to whom they can pretend conveniently, and a few months down the line, they swear they met their best friend.
That’s not to say all great friends are attractive or that they make for great romantic partners. But of course, we see cases of friends with repressed affection everyday. We colloquially call it “see finish” which is often just the unfashionable substitute for great chemistry.
A reasonable argument could be that romance thrives with mystery. But then, with one’s partner, familiarity is inevitable and it may or may not erode the romance. If that is prospectively true, then i think people can be more intentional with making it work with friends.

Our problems are culturally sanctioned and then religious reinforced. These men know that if they walk into your fancy offices and churches, you’ll still treat them like gods. Some will even bow. Power resides where people believe it resides.
Unfortunately, it’s easy to control a country with poor and unenlightened people. Because poor people just want to live. There’s no cause or movement worthier. Poverty immediately makes you dangerous, even without your consent. Every threat to your survival, you cave in.
It is tempting sometimes to bash Nigerians as cowardly but I refrain because which “Nigerians?” The unfortunate truth is that those who are angered, truly, and understand what is at stake, are still a minority. A significant minority, but a minority notwithstanding.

Those around us worth appreciating—

Family.
The ones who make your humanity feel less heavy.
The ones who inspire you to be better, without judgments.

Love is love. Commitment is commitment. Commitment is a quality. Love is a sensation. We don’t need to conflate both terms. Unfortunately, marriage is a self-imposed obligation. You don’t need a “different” kind of love in marriage. You just need more qualities—commitment, etc.
Love does not commit. It makes you willing to be with someone but it’s not a substitute for the skills you need for that. You may have the talent for football—that’s like love. But it’s not a substitute for the discipline needed for professional football—that’s a learned quality.
So the point is, there’s no need to conflate both terms. Love is one of many different skills you need to be with someone. You can love a person to death and be very stupidly lazy. Love provokes the willingness, it does not implant a trait you have not developed yourself.

That’s the difference between wisdom and intelligence. Men who have actually been in long term relationships know that vulnerability is a slippery concept. It seems intellectually sound to recommend it (after all, why can’t we all just be human) but it’s never that simple.
The more you experience people, the more you notice the disconnect between what they say and how they’d react. It is an intelligent proposition to promote equality, for instance, but when you see the reaction of humans in certain situations, you’ll know that equality is a farce.
This is something I have been teaching my younger sisters. If people are resisting an approach, listen. No matter how intelligent your view is, try to understand why they say so. Not all solutions are deductive, yet they can be sensible. Experience is the ultimate leveller.
