I think he’s trying to say Peter Obi is a thief, right?

Obi should beef up security around him right now. There are many wolves and hyenas chasing him now. They'll all fail by God's grace.

Does that also mean ebora owu was also a disaster when he endorsed and openly campaigned for buhari in 2015, even tearing off his pdp membership card under the supervision of the media to show support for buhari? Wonderful grin

Tinubu is popular in the south west my foot

Re: Sowore: "Only A Fool Will Consult A Thief To Repair His Burgled Door" by ceaser: 1:27pm On Jan 03, 2023
I will disagree with Sowore on some of his opinions.

“Only a fool will consult with a thief when repairing his burgled door” - Yoruba proverb.

The proverb holds true, but OBJ has every right to endorse who he believes in. OBJ as a president made great development strides in the polity of the country. His first term saw the improvement of the standard of living of Nigerians and the military and paramilitary in particular had it rosy under OBJ. His policies included but not limited to the creation of the antigraft agencies and with his non-partisan nature, was able to bring to book anybody that tried any nonsense in the civil service.

He is a pan-Nigerian who ensured that every part of the country has representation in form of, not just anybody, but technocrats and people who merited the position they occupied. People like NOI, the late Dora Akunyili, Soludo, and even El Rufai himself were all products of OBJ'non-partisan politics.

The point where he lost it all was his inordinate third term ambition which gladly was truncated by both well meaning Nigerians and even the non-patriotic ones whose disparage about the good works of OBJ was their only driving force to oppose the third term ambition.

It even got to a point that people believed OBJ's penchant for actively opposing Yoruba political aspirants was borne out of his fear of being outshined by people that come after him.

On national TV, and on the eve of the elections that Awolowo participated in, OBJ as the then head of state said and I quote "the best candidate may not necessarily win this election". This is coming at a point where he was already being suspected of having a bias against the sagacity and the likely success of Awolowo as a president which will likely dwarf his own (OBJ's) recognition as a Yoruba leader. And of course Awolowo never got that position.

ObJ was also actively against the emergence of MKO Abiola when he went to South Africa and there publicly made a statement that Abiola should not be allowed to be the president. And Abiola did not attain that position.

During his return stint as a democratically elected president, he was actively against Tinubus's policies in Lagos State such that he denied the latter funds in order to frustrate governance in the state. Against all odds, Tinubu was able to weather the storm and did something worthwhile without reliance on federal allocation from OBJ.

OBJ was strongly against the announcement of June 12 as democracy day in Nigeria. The holiday which was legislated by Buhari was an agreement reached between him and Tinubu as a matter of national interest and in the event that he gets elected for a second term, the second term which Tinubu earnestly worked for and which OBJ actively worked against.

Having said all the above, OBJ is known to always, either in speech or in writing, have some condemnation to give about the government of the day. He did it against Shehu shagari. He did it against IBB. He did it against Sanni Abacha, which was what angered the latter to the point that he accused him of staging a phantom coup which nearly caused OBJ his life. He also did it to his handpicked GEJ. This implies that in the event that Obi wins, a time will come that he will also write a letter condemning Obi.

It is a good thing for past leaders to call present ones to order because that is the role expected of political elders and ex-officio and I without any reservations like it that OBJ takes that as his duty. He has even authored some books which serve as repository of Nigerian history for the upcoming generations, something which other past presidents of the country have not deemed fit to do.

The letter that OBJ has just written was not directed to Obi, but directed to Nigerian youths. It only suggests his endorsement of Obi and as he rightly puts him, as "a needle with a thread". This may mean different things to different people. To OBJ, it may imply Obi being able to be under his control as opposed to Tinubu who has challenged him before or Atiku whom he shared a tumultuous mandate with in his years as president. Still to some it may imply that Obi is not yet a "man of himself" to reject propositions from political godfathers. In all of these, it is simply OBJ being himself - authoring letters as he loves to do and I don't think he deserves any condemnation for doing that.

For Sowore to now attach OBJ's history of political kleptocracy directly with that of Obi's recent unveiling of political kleptocracy in the Panama papers, is to me a futile mental exercise. There is greater possibility that Òbí will decide to be his own man, backstab OBJ, constitute his own circle of thieves and nepotistic governance and everything continues the way they were. At that time, OBJ will again put pen to paper to condemn the government. Buhari did such, engaging in clannish and nepotistic distribution of political positions, something that began the downward spiral of his government. It got so bad that even his wife (Aisha) had to speak out.

Time will tell.

Yes alot of unsolved case Bola Ige comes to my mind and omisore still walking free, is that the kind of person that should be recommending president he has no moral right to recommend our leader sowore is right Obj should face his old age in peace and leave Nigeria alone we can decide our leader ourselves.
