Peter Obi is really a demented imbeciile. He is always speaking from both side of his mouth due to mental depravity.


This is an interview he granted The Punch late last month condemning the lockdown.


Mr Peter Obi , has warned against locking down the country over coronavirus scare, without alternative arrangements to cushion the effects of such actions on the masses.



This is the unstable idiot who wanted to become our vice president.


Someone with comprehension depravity is really a demented imb.ecile or unstable idiot. You tied rope around your own neck hanging yourself .... and don't even know.

@ topic.... the man is on point. Lockdown to prevent the virus from spreading... then allowing everyone to gather together to allow the virus to spread... then what's the point of the lockdown? I know many can explain.

What Peter Obi is saying is that you cannot lock down without putting in place parliative measures.

.....Tithes and offering collector spotted....why do u people value monetary gain over human life. Didn't ur Bible say "be obedient to superior authorities"..... So u are still of the opinion dat people gather in large masses knowing full well dat the said virus could sporadically spread through such means... When Jesus was on earth no sickness or pestilences was bigger than him....He cured thousands of them. How many of the corona victims have you and your so-called men of god attempted to heal? I guess u all are afraid....knowing fully well dat u all are misleading people under the guise of religion. You all will definitely give an account for this.

The whole things burn down to the fact that , nothing good comes easy, it's either we go on lockdown and win war with this demon virus or we go the Equador way, God forbid.

A former Governor of Anambra State , Mr Peter Obi , has warned against locking down the country over coronavirus scare, without alternative arrangements to cushion the effects of such action on the masses .
He said whilst all possible measures should be deployed to stop the spread of COVID- 19 , appropriate measures should be put in place to mitigate the suffering of the vulnerable in society .
In a statement by his Media Adviser, Valentine Obienyem, Obi , who was the vice presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party in the 2019 election, said markets and other business ventures should not be closed to further impoverish the poor.
He said , ” There are several millions of our populace who are unemployed . Their means of livelihood depends on daily income which the present situation will definitely worsen . ”
He noted that in locking down the country, such vulnerable people should be factored into government plans , as was the case in other countries , by putting measures in place to cushion the effects of the lockdown on them.
Obi , who expressed gratitude for the efforts of some political leaders , captains of industry and corporate bodies , urged the Federal Government to do more to mitigate the situation, especially for poor Nigerians , as being witnessed in other climes.
He added , “ It would be counter -productive to keep only the elite in mind when taking such far - reaching decisions as closing down markets without having some cushioning measures for the traders . ”
He enjoined politicians , especially legislators , to go back to their constituencies to be with their people at a time like this .
“This is the time to be with your people in your various constituencies , ” Obi said .
He said it did not make any sense for politicians to be observing the stay - at -home in various places outside their constituencies at this trying time , instead of being with their constituents to help their people to find solutions to their problems and challenges .
Obi said that by being in their constituencies to monitor the situation, the elected leaders will be in a position not only to support their people in time of need , but to also properly advise government on how to address the fallouts of government policies.
He called on leaders of all segments of society to make sacrifices and show commitment at this critical period in the country’ s history .

Can you please name the genuine servants of God in the country or your state.... What parameter(s) will be adopted to disqualify others?

I'm sure you failed simple comprehension in English at your primary and secondary level. The keyword is just a few lines in the post you put there. Your wasted school fees should just have been shared to Nigerians that would have made use of the money. At least 19 of your fellow idiotás liked your post. Let that keep you happy.

I hear some Nigerians say things like, "me and my families are covered by the blood of Jesus" well..FYI If everyone else is infected by the virus except you and your families what do you think is going to happen to you and your families eventually?


Gullible and selfish fools.

You apparently lack comprehension skills.

You wasted your time condemning yourself by posting what contracted your vituperation.
Re: Peter Obi: It Is Wrong To Relax Lockdown For Religious Reasons by timip: 12:12pm On Apr 11, 2020
Relaxation of lockdown is good move,it's not politics but show of honour to God that He is alive;and it's only God that can help us in this predicament.
In my state(Bayelsa) people still go for shopping in market palaces, there you have large gathering than the church.
Let us stop spreading fears instead genuine information about this pandemic.
God please have mercy on the world.

Obi is addressing those governors that relaxed lockdown only for religious reason. Wike announced in Rivers state on Thursday relaxing the lockdown for only religious activities (to celebrate Easter and Muslims to pray at Jumat) which is a foolish thing to do, the height of irresponsibility, just to gain political point. It means clearly he does not understand the importance of the lockdown.

But any discerning religious organisation ignores him and still observes lockdown of their parishes just like the Catholic directed all his priests yesterday not to conduct any service.

I had my credit card topped up and also my credit score boosted within 2 days of work. He’s so amazing. You welcome by the way.
He also cloned my wife’s phone… i’ve been able to see all her call logs,texts,emails,social media accounts and more for over 4 months now… She isnt even aware. All thanks to (cybertechhub100 at gmail dot com). Don’t hesitate to contact him.
