Onlytruth: This El Rufai direct attack on Obi may be all the proof we need to conclude that the PDP may well field Obi as a presidential candidate in 2015. I've heard the rumor severally but it looks too "blindsiding" to be true. When you consider that APGA recently severally turned down invitations from other opposition parties, the math starts to add up!somtimes, I wonder who made you an eze on this NL.. Where was I then? You are a disgrace to the igbo race! For you to think a docile governor like obi will be given a presidential ticket shows how mentally deficient you are. Obi is a failure and every Anambrarian knows that. El Rufai said what everybody already knows. He may goof sometimes but he is correct here. Obi has dragged the state to backwardness and its not that hard to see. You may not know about his obsession with buying houses in Abuja or massive corruption. And note that you have not contributed any meaningful thing to the igbo race on NL with this your 'office'. I will never allow a fan of backwardness lead me! 5 Likes |

Abagworo:As simple as that... Why is nobody attacking akpabio, fashola and chime? Because they are putting in work. I just wonder why some of these folks who think like terrorists are igbos. The governor is looting the peoples money. Somebody calls him out and instead of responding with facts stating otherwise he wants to use same people he is looting sadistically to cover up. Peter Obi is a lameduck 4 Likes |

Mr. Globe: I agree with you. Mr Obi 's response is bad but those of the people supporting him on the altar of tribalism a worse. |

Imagine calling the economic hub of the SE, rural state. It can only come from political jobbers like elrufai who are seeking attention. Knowing that its by insulting the most important SE state that he came achieve celebrity status. All these mudslinging by Elrufai is borne out of the fact that GEJ is secretly planning to hand over to Obi in 2015. Obi is expected to decamp to PDP any moment from now to perfect the 2015 race. The north has been shook to its foundation over the plan by GEJ to annoint Obi for 2015 race, so they have decided to throw jabs to Obi via Elrifai to poison the minds of Anambrans and SE at large. Obi knew about it that is why, his first response was that it was an insult on ndigbo. He could have responded in other-words, but he knew the grounds upon which Elrufai has been recruited to attack his political life. 2015 race has since begun so umunne mu watch out and don't be deceived by arm-chair critics. 1 Like |

Whoever that says peter obi has not performed knows that he/she is a serial liar. Since the creation of new Anambra state, can anyone truthfuly pinpoint any previous govt that have performed better than the present administration? You can only fault Obi on the premise that he is not ur typical nigerian politician which means there is no free money for the 'boys'. Let remove sentiments and corrupt tendencies and say it the way it is; the guy has really performed with the resources available to him. |

Mr. Globe: Well-said. This is indeed what we keep saying on NL. Folks should simply stop personalising issues. The criticism, for example, of GEJ is not the criticism of the SS or SE. It is the criticism of a very bad administrator causing all Nigerians pain by leading only for the few looters who destroy the lives of all Nigerians, from every corner, throughout our history as a Nation. Same should apply to criticism of Obi, Amosun, Fashola, Yuguda et al as long as the criticism is genuine, not motivated by mischief and of the sort no sane person can dispute. |
Re: El- -rufai Insulted Igbo Race —obi by Nobody: 2:17pm On Jun 10, 2012 |
one.east: You must really be a funny one. Can GEJ anoint himself not to talk of someone else? I gave up on Obi, long time ago, when he apparently planned to rig Madam Dora into power. He's a monumental disaster, a big disgrace to governance considering his background, an ethnic bigot, a mediocre politician and a hypocrite of the highest order. If El-Rufai piece is an insult to Igbo, what would one call his piece on Bauchi or Benue? 3 Likes |

Lmaoooo!! This is how the Jewish people label anyone who says anything remotely negative about Jews, whether it is true or not. . . Anti-Semite. People who don't want to labelled an Anti-Semite because it brings to mind images of Hitler, Nazi and the Holocaust, quickly learn to keep their opinions to themselves. . . .even when they are right. An effective way to silence your critics, no? Seriously how is saying one state is not doing as well as it should. . .Anti -Igbos? Me thinks the lovely Governor is trying to invoke tribal sentiments (rooted in the Biafran war) to cover up his own inefficiency and I were Igbo I will be mighty insulted that this man is using such a painful event willy nillyingly. 1 Like |

Fyi, that article from el rufai has nothing objective about it. Just bunch of lies lumped together for the ignorant. Believe that and you can believe anything. Let me even ask how many of you have been to Anambra state for an 'on the spot assessment'? |

Let me even ask how many of you have been to Anambra state for an 'on the spot assessment'? I have read all El-Rufai's artices since he started running a consistent column for Thisday. They are ALL not just objective but laden with facts, independently verifiable facts. Let's assume El-Rufai was dead wrong. What do you consider an appropriate response? A brilliant chap would have deconstructed El-Rufai article facts for facts, logic for logic not resorting to tribal sentiments. Which Anambra are you talking about, Ngige's Anambra or Obi's? |

Re: El- -rufai Insulted Igbo Race —obi by Nobody: 2:38pm On Jun 10, 2012 |
i think el rufai should be more concerned about his backward filthy savage cattle-herder brothers. thousands of them are polishing shoes and cutting finger nails in Anambra State. |

Sisi_Kill: Lmaoooo!! This is how the Jewish people label anyone who says anything remotely negative about Jews, whether it is true or not. . . Anti-Semite. My sister, Obi has shown himself to be a character ready to hypocritically whip up sentiments of ethnic bigotry against others and this latest antic should not surprise well-informed political observers. Indeed, this hypocritical attitude of Obi is actually prevalent on Nairaland and it is nauseating. Everyone wants to sit in judgement and condemnation of the SW and its administrators on 50 threads per day yet they can never handle criticism of their administrators without barking about "ethnic plots/hatred". It is self-delusion and shameless hypocrisy 101. http://saharareporters.com/column/peter-obi-akunyili-and-political-folly Several witnesses told me how, at campaign stumps with Mrs. Akunyili, Governor Obi told his audience not to vote for Mr. Ngige because the man is too short. Then he permitted campaign posters to be circulated in which the image of Mr. Ngige, a medical doctor and candidate of the Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN), was aligned with those of the late Chief Obafemi Awolowo and former Governor Bola Tinubu. By contrast, the governor’s candidates were lined up with the late Owelle Nnamdi Azikiwe and Ikemba Emeka Odumegwu-Ojukwu. The sordid idea was to portray Ngige as belonging to a “Yoruba team.” |

Re: El- -rufai Insulted Igbo Race —obi by oolumide: 2:58pm On Jun 10, 2012 |
I used to hold El-rufai in high esteem until when returned back to Nigeria to start blabbing like a typical Nigerian politician who has lost out in the scheme of things. Used his ex-ray on budget until I realised that he was using that medium to sell both ACN & CPC governors in other to make both parties look good in preparation for 2015, this midget of a guy is a typical Nigerian playing on our minds to achieve their selfish goal. Please read between the lines |

@ OP So this shortish loud-mouth thinks he has the necessary credentials to score the governor of a state he does not live in? What about his own state? Rubbish talk, I bet he is trying to score some political points by making unsubstantiated claims. Mallam has mouth diarrhea, so he cannot just stop running his mouth even when unnecessary. |
Re: El- -rufai Insulted Igbo Race —obi by lacasa: 3:03pm On Jun 10, 2012 |
†ђªt 's the thing i luv wt El-rufai, he does his critic of the subject based on empirical evidence aπϑ calculated assumptions. His columns on Thisday are a regular on my read. The man is quite intelligent Though i'm not really his fan politically even if we hail from the same region Peter obi is trying τ̅o divert the bad reality of his govt by implying tribalistic attack from el-rufai bt nairalanders are not dullards. #atleast ( a few lot) |
Re: El- -rufai Insulted Igbo Race —obi by drzed: 3:05pm On Jun 10, 2012 |
PointB: Analysing any State and passing judgement based on a budget is, IMHO, simplistic. It is important for one to actually visit the state and access the situation on the ground. Sanusi We are talking about El-Rufai here! Na wah o! (in GEJ's accent) |
Re: El- -rufai Insulted Igbo Race —obi by freshmoney(m): 3:05pm On Jun 10, 2012 |
Peter Obi is nothing but a villain whose interest is not for the people but for his self-aggrandisement. El-rufai had talked the bitter truth. Why adding ethical sentiments to simple perspectives from a savvy man? I am yet to see any unique output from that State since that ghoul took over. It's high time they uprooted that scoundrel called Peter Obi! And for you ethnic chauvinists, keep coming up with cheap shenanigans hoping that will exonerate you from your debased life! |
