Decamping from PDP was the coward way out and not bravery. A brave politician would have against all odds contest that PDP primary, but as a coward he quickly ran way to labour Party.

Bravery must mean different things to different people sha

My thinking too. Tinubu stayed and fought the baddest, toughest and most powerful modafckers in the land to emerge victorious. He is the real deal and Obi is a coward. No way to spin that fact.

Oh, but you know so little!

It takes bravery to start over. It takes bravery to chart your own path. It takes bravery to fly the flag of a relatively uncharted party. Others had it way easier because they had people rooted in government and state parastatals. Not him!


Everything you listed is Tinubu and definitely not obi who couldn't make Apga work on Anambra after Ojukwu handed him the party structure.

Was it obi that Built Labour Party or you think labour existence started last year?

Can you detail the vote count, or at least, the position LP candidate finished in each of the last Presidential elections since its inception, and before Peter Obi?

I need to be sure you know what you are saying, that LP was a force before Obi flew the flag.

Before we continue the conversation, what is labour position after the 2023 general election.

Newsflash, that third position will be labour Party best outing in future elections in Nigeria.

Don't get carried away by the Euphoria of yes daddy, it all end on social media.

You may want to know why he is called Okwute (means rock or stone)

Peter Obi is not swayed by the whims of the elite few. He's driven rather, by acting on what is beneficial to the masses and less-privileged and what positions the people for a better tomorrow, whether or not the political class is happy about it. If he backtracks on a decision, it is only because he has seen it will not ultimately favour the masses in the long run. He understands he is a servant to the people, not a ruler over minions.

As for strength of character, Peter Obi was part of the economic team that masterminded the subsidy removal in 2012 (which made petrol to be sold at 140 then). He still confirmed that stand in his campaigns, despite the view of NLC over it. Tinubu on the other hand, was against subsidy removal in 2012, only to make a U-turn in 2023. It is clear who can actually make the tough calls, irrespective of the pressure.

It can be confusing how someone so attentive to the plight of the masses could be a tough nut to crack by the political class, but then, it is Peter Obi, a rare breed.
True, Obi is driven by acting on what is beneficials to the masses and less privileged.

EG When he was Governor of Anambra state, he saw that availability of beer would be beneficial to the masses back then so he commissioned a Beer making factory.

He saw that plenty drunks in the State would make the state a happier place.

Peter Obi is truly a rare breed

He will attempt to take tough decision but he will backtrack if he face backlash. That is one thing I’ve noticed about Peter Obi.

During the campaign, there are multiple times he take some decision that are not pleasing to his mobs, he always backtrack and delete them back and change stance easily. It’s not neccessary a bad thing, but as a Nigerian president, you must not always bow to pressure because no matter what you do whether good or bad, pressure will be exerted.

If he faces backlash from big men with better power, he will soften and I’m saying this because it’s very evident in his demeanor.

Even Atiku dosen’t seem tough enough to me too.

There are few politicians that are truly tough:
Tinubu, Wike, Fashola, Soludo, Kwakwanso, Oshiomole, and etc.
Fashola as lagos governor enhhh😂

He deserve to be on the list 😂

Oga, shut up your dirty mouth. Peter Obi that denies conversations he had and deletes his own tweets.
Tinubu has NEVER deleted a single tweet.

Which useless okwute? Of what use is a pebble in national politics?

No, he can't. Trace it to election day when Obi was asked what he will do if he doesn't win. He was stammering, he didn't know what to say. When Tinubu was asked the same thing, he told the reporter like 3 times that he was going to win this election.

That's how you know a man with a solid low hanging balls. Obi would be a perfect leader in a country life UK where he will be taking orders from the king. In Nigeria, he will be roasted right in his office by his cook. Abokis will ground him into powder

LP already had a Governor when Obi was in APGA and making promise to Ojukwu not to leave APGA.

Obi has done well for Himself! He made LP to become a National Force with 1 state and 30+ NA members! ☺️😎

He is Better than Osinbajo who chose to be a Boyboy to Tinubu because of fear of standing alone.😏

If Osinbajo had decamped to SDP to contest the Elections,
I can tell you for free that he would have gotten Lots of votes from Nigerians.😕

So Obi should have contested that PDP Primary that was a Dollar Contest b/w Wike and Atiku? 😏

Wike had Rivers State Funds while Atiku has his 1999-2007 Loots.
Obi has not held any Political Position since he left power in 2014 and does NOT have Godson in Anambra or Abuja.

How would he compete with those 2 Men?

He did the Right thing by leaving PDP to Labour Party and the Decision has produced dividends Nationally.😊

Mind you, to Govern Anambra for 8years no be Beans, after Mbadinuju, Chris Uba, Ngige and co messed up the State.😌😕

Obi was never prepared to be President of the country, he was just riding on the anger of the people due to the lackluster performance of the previous administration. Everyday, many obidients are being converted into Asiwaju's camp.

Leadership isn't just all talk and no action. It takes chuzpah to lead a country like ours. Tinubu has so much influence that no one in Igbo land could ever think of having!

Omo you yorubas have big mouth oo. If you people truely know the reason why they don't want igbos to be president you will definitely say no too. Why do you think united states is on russia's foot? And now they are trying create policies that will affect china.

Was going through Twitter and I saw a tweet by an obedient, tough decisions tinubu has made in two weeks can obi take them does he have the balls?

Lol. Some people mistake insensitivity in leadership for bold decision making. Border closure, Naira redesign etc were done with hard balls by PMB. Please, remind me again who suffered and what was the overall outcome? It would seem as if leaders of working countries have to be stone-hearted before they can implement good policies. No, the difference is STRONG INSTITUTIONS not STRONG MEN. It will take some time for some of you to realize you have a PHARAOH as president.

Obi is an opportunist. He jumped on an existing social media bandwagon; "The Endsars" and an existing Party LP to market himself as the option for the youth

He used lies of how he has 2 shoes, 1 boxers and 3 singlet , largely false facts about China , India and Bangladesh to bamboozle the largely gullible ones and they fell for it...... while conveniently sidestepping his achievements as Governor.

"Peter Obi, Peter Obi"!!!! "Oya why do you like him" ??........ They don't know or they resort to emotional blackmail like "Do you want your children to suffer?? As if those he governed in Anambra are now swimming in utopia.
