Longeria: I sheds tears to hear this, anyway good things of life hardly last. This is a man who changed Nigeria political landscape forever with his landmark court victories. His prudent financial management proved him as a world class economist. His political fidelity prove him to be a man worthy of of trust. A feminine voice with a lion hear

Please spare us your crocodile tears.

Retirement from politics..
Verily, most of us are in err. Someone said he has retired from politics with a flimsy reason that he is not greedy. So public seats as seen by him were meant to be business ventures, for people to come make money and leave for other people.
The important question here is this: what are the modalties involved in retirement from politics.
No Nigerian leader can convince me of retiring from politics or better still none of our current leaders can 'retire' from politics. They will from time to time always have one or two interests to protect. And u called that retirement from politics??..just like someone here said "he shuld nt come in 2015 and say my people say i should go to the senate"..

However it doesn't change the fact that Gov Obi is an achiever

If d party executives are all muslim, so what? The party that parades balanced executives what have they done to make the country better other than looting.I'm a christian bt I will nt be swayed by such STUPID sentiments.On issues, performance track record nay on Nigeria we stand. Nuff said!

he can never please everybody and no leader can ever do that cos even Jesus couldnt. so if u think dat he didnt try sorry its your problem deal with it. Anything u do ppl must talk, maybe we shld try anoda mbadinuju and knw the difference.

What more can i say?...THANK you sir and God BLESS!!...i Now understand why EZEIGBO GBURUGBURU, Late chief CHUKWUEMEKA ODIMEGWU OJUKWU held You hands up and said,'THIS IS MY FINAL WISH, VOTE PETER OBI GOVERNOR ANAMBRA STATE', IN 2007....NIGERIA must experience the fresh air soonest.... ATITUDINAL CHANGE IS THEY KEY...

How i wish Ameachi can toe his path, state speaker for 8 years, governor for 8 years, sign a life pension for himself, and still wants the vice presidency for another 8 years?
Is it civil service? Or greed?

chidindufrank: Good. If a young man like Obi could think of retirement,what stops Buhari from retiring from active politics?

How can Buhari resign? Have you not heard that d lanky prince from daura did not steal during his several tenures in several capacities? Buhari gats to go back to aso rock so that he can steal some money to fund his old age and insure his generations unborn.

Ok well noted. Next topic pls

1025: why won't he retire since his political father(Ojukwu) is no more. an apga gov who is always moving around with a pdp president. maybe he has been looking for federal contracts. he can't fight the battles ahead. abi he wan go manage his mall wey dey abuja? na nice one sha.

If moving with a president of the people who is in PDP is a crime, then Amechi truly deserves what he is getting now cos he is not only moving around with APC, he is also chopping and eating cake and drinking crystal champagne with fashola.

maybe by 2031 we shall pity him

Gov. Peter Obi had a job,before he ventured into politics.Most Nigerian politicians don't have any job.
That is why they keep running for Senate,President etc and when they rig themselves into a public office of trust,they steal the country blind to support themselves when they are finally forced to retire from politics.

I wish him well and hope he contributes his opinion to the betterment of society.

obandy: How i wish Ameachi can toe his path, state speaker for 8 years, governor for 8 years, sign a life pension for himself, and still wants the vice presidency for another 8 years?

Jamb question.

Though i criticize some of obi's tactics most times, but the truth still remains that the man has done well. He has laid a foundation.
Oh lord! Please give us a leader that will make our dear state the true LIGHT OF THE NATION

mikeansy: no wonder he has been licking the President's backside!

he wants to sort himself out forever

I hope he has the grace to allow Anambra people choose their own future and not impose anyone on the State

sorry o*winks*

I put bold to say with what he said if I can confirm that he has done well to like 60%, then Peter Obi becomes my role model in Nigeria Politics.

jst ur thought my friend

la_unique: Wow! This is really surprising. Anyway kudos to him. If the likes of buhari, obj, ibb, tinubu etc had done the same, Nigeria would have been better for it.

let him retire first na let us see. I mean full retirement o...without acting as someone else's Godfather!

ACM10: Radio Biafra is hot on his trail. They have launched savage attacks on his personality. Presently, he is politically weak. If he hangs on to politics a little longer, he will be messed for life. So he decided to quit.

Fork radio biafra,they speak evil against him because he didn't give them breathing space to exist in anambra state. Radio biafra my nyansh

What usually happens here in nairaland when people react to an event, a news item or a submission by a fellow member is very instructional. ..a lesson in isolation of what happens in the larger society. I have never seen a single item here where people on nairaland in a thread reacted with unity or in agreement with one voice. There must definitely be at least, one dissenting opinion that runs contrary to the general popular or consensus opinion however however reasonable! If Jesus and Muhammed were to be brought to nairaland forum for members to comment on, God forbid, some members will surely cast aspersions on them!
The dangerous aspect of the reactions and opinions is that quarrels are easily generated among members that would shortly dwarf and seek to put the main topic of discussion into oblivion and we will begin to tackle one another on d use of English, morality, discipline etiquette and other sundry issues that bear no relevance to the topic of discussion. Haba! Am not here to laud or condemn what Peter Obi is reported to have done but all am saying is: let us be diplomatic in our reactions according one another the necessary respect and when there is need to have oneness of opinion let it be one. God bless us all.

It is not unconstitutional for INEC to register them as long as they're not registering the party on religious basis.

The best you can do is not vote for them during elections. Stop spreading religious hatred and bigotry. That's exactly what Boko Haram does and I don't see any difference between you and them.

I agree with all of his points on wasteful government and greed in politics. At least he was bold to say it out. I also believe he will retire and face his business's that he and his younger brother Ndebi set up. 7 billion cash to build the mall in Abuja is better then buying a house in Dubai, at least people will have jobs and everyone will get to use the mall not like one person living in a house every other year. Nigerians are receiving employment from his brewery and we re also getting home brewed beer, so thank you for not being selfish and placing stolen funds in one European bank account. Good luck I look forward to the completions of the projects before you retire from politics in 2014.

ACM10: Adaobi retires. . .How this man managed to win the second term is still a mystery to me. God forbid us having such person as our governor.

people like you are blind men with eyes, wonder how you managed to read and write with a brain as fishy as yours and a mind as impoverished as yours... wish i can tell you how but like a pig, you ll always be dirty. SHAME to you ...
