obyno82: Dude stop trying to mention SS. Stop desperately trying to lump them with SW. Oga your greed will be the destruction of you guys, make una continue
POINT out where i lumped SS with SW? SS no send anybody ... by now you should know
CSTRR: Tinubu is not only playing a dangerous game of bigotry, he is also putting the future of the entire Yoruba political class into his bigoted basket.
All of them will be stained with the same brush of bigotry.
The rest of the south can easily counter him by declaring for Atiku and the election would have been decided immediately.
Cutting the nose to spite the face lol... i dare the SE.
As for the SS votes will be distributed evenly amongst all... cos SS dey use sense play politics
Isobug: I listened to them Yesterday. One of them said it's the turn of Yoruba people. What a greedy people. After OBJ 8years and a sitting V.P 8 years, it is still your turn. You don't consider those that share the region with you. Where is the fairness. Southern Unity my foot
You cannot give what you don't have...
It is the turn of yorubas, if igbo want it let them go and demand it from PDP
How the South West will vote in 2023: Lagos - 55% for ObiDatti. Oyo - 65% for ObiDatti. Osun- 45% for ObiDatti. Ekiti- 45% for ObiDatti. Ogun and Ondo- 55% for ObiDatti..
Tinubu can't get one vote in Osun - Osun, Ekiti, Ondo, Oyo and Ogun will vote 90% for OBi Datti . while Lagos will vote 70% for Obi Datti
My only fear is that Anambra, Ebonyi, Imo, Enugu and Abia are BATIFIED so it might be a draw. EM-U-EM-U
obedience4: If you read the post, you will see that it was in their home in San Fransisco, Nacy being the speaker reside in DC . I don't think it would have been possible to raid the speaker resident in the capital
I don't think you know who the Speaker of the United states HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES IS?
They are heavily guarded forget story... even before they went to san francisco it would have been swept clean by the secret service.
First, let us note that this section of the interview was about security and the menace of banditry.
We begin at 33:09
FULL TRANSCRIPT OF THE SECTION OF ARISE INTERVIEW WITH PETER OBI @TONYEBARCANISTA POSTED
Rufai: OK, but Mr Peter Obi, it is not as easy as you just said it is. Should I tell you why? Because you have to buy more guns to fight the bandits that don't make people farm on the farmlands, to fight the bandits that killed 100 farmers in Zababare, to fight the legacy issues of infrastructure that would inhibit production, and a lot of people keep asking, you keep talking about production but as a businessman you used to import a lot into this country, those are some of the things they hold against you. You talk about production but you're a big net importer into this country. And, how will you solve those legacy issues? That's why we talked about security.
Peter Obi cuts in...
Peter Obi: Let me tell you, I talked about security, let me tell you, Rufai. I've been going around this country. I've visited 5 prisons and I can invite you to go to one with me. I sat down with some when I went into a prison, there were 1000 people and I interviewed 100.
Why were you involved in kidnapping? I have no job! Why were you involved in cultism? I have no job! Why were you involved in kidnapping? I have no job!
And I said to them, how much were you paid in the last operation? Rufai, you won't believe it, N30,000, N25,000, N100,000. What this shows is that if these people can have a steady income of N50,000, they won't be involved in that. The more you pull people out of poverty, I've said repeatedly, the more you reduce criminality. We have these things in Brazil. I can show you countries where it has been practised. All these agitations and criminality were all over the place in Brazil until Brazil decided to do what I am telling you now, investing in these people. It means these things I'm going to do is going to reduce this criminality because they will be part of the farmers earning income. Today bandits are taking 8 local Governments in Niger state, I'm telling you if you put money in the farther land of Niger state, you'll reduce them by 50%. Because they've found something they're doing that'll give them money. What else do they want?
Rufai cuts in....
Rufai: You talked about Brazil, are you going to do social investment because it is under .....(Inaudible - PO and Rufai were speaking at the same time)
Peter Obi: I might not, I will do a combination of everything. There's a combination of everything. You're not going to do one straight thing. It's a combination of everything that will say, we are going to pull these people out of poverty, because the more we do it, so we deal with those legacy issues. On the issue of what my importation is, let me tell you what I did and I'll like to refer to Reuben cos I've known Reuben for over 30 years. Go and ask anybody what my business is, that is what I even studied. If you go and read what I studied at Harvard, it's market-to-market management. I'm marketing, I'm a distributor. Go and ask Coca-Cola, they're in Nigeria, ask other people as at the time I was in business, I was one of their biggest distributors. It's like seeing Walmart, Walmart today sells goods from Vietnam, India, etc but they don't manufacture them. My job is not to manufacture, although I invested in manufacturing companies too, my job is distribution so I distribute. When I was doing business, less than a quarter, 25% of what I sell are imported goods, the rest are manufactured goods. It's a mixture so that when you go into the supermarket, you'll see local products and others. And, I was productive.
We stopped at 37:12
TonyeBarcanista, we understand your desperation and you're truly deserving of our pity. What else can you do when your party don't have anything to campaign with?
If you find what he said about security plausible ? he will take people out of poverty... how
Felixamos: I no go argue with you on this sha. But I believe we can both agree that he has benefited or will benefit from tinubu directly(hence the blind followership) yeah?
Can you say the same thing for yourself? You wey be poet
sunnymighty: @Op this is deep, I feel your pain however in most cases banks are not obligated to disclose account balance of their customers especially if they are not sure of caller's identity. IMO I feel you should have informed them ahead of the call, but then what do I know?
obynzo: Oga try and have sense for once in your life. how can you compare the construction of a bullet train woth that of Lagos light rail that runs on simplistic conventional rail technology. Even she Japan Launched theirs it took years to design and build it.
Oga you no go school jare
Logical reasoning no gum you at all… you’re just empty
DrAkpamudehe: Too much idioots and dead BATS on nairaland. Is the Lagos metro a high speed metro? Is it being built like that of the first world countries? Mumu wey carry head for neck but nothing dey inside the head
now this is how we know illiterates... america that has passed Nigeria's level technology and technical know-how wise?
Light rail is to Nigeria what High speed rail is to America.
obynzo: California high speed rail stopped because of paucity of funds during the global melt down and again the design of the high speed rail was to use the bullet train technology in use in Japan. That is different from the light rail in Nigeria there is no BS you can use to explain away the project taking close to 20years to complete a train which uses the same technology with Ethiopia rail and was awarded the same time with Ethiopia rail and Ethiopia completed theirs in 2014 now 8 years Lagos is still struggling to compete theirs. Oga stop celebrating mediocrity abeg.
You no go school … to obvious
You mentioned paucity of funds oh ye ignant nairalander.
That alone ends ALL arguments
But no … ignorance allow you continue type rubbish
floss: Keep money aside let BAT and Atiku convince Nigerians on why they should be voted next year 2023....if any of them get one single vote from any polling unit in Nigeria I will know that God is actually behind this present Nigeria we are experiencing.
Obi that cannot respond to any question? always beating around the bush.
Our parents did not say we should not accept meals from strangers...
Learn to understand... they meant we should not take food from people that they (OUR) parents don't know!
Going further when food is given to us by people that they (our) parents know then we are to keep it until they (our) parents get home and show them first.
That is you AS a CHILD.
As an ADULT - that's a different thing entirely. You're now old and witty enough to "read the room"
isaiah4life: Our moms used to tell us not to accept meals from strangers but now, we order food online without knowing who cooked it.
wasuka14: My wife Twins sister moved to our apartment of a room and parlour self-contain with her 4 kids after the demise of her husband without notice to me.
Honestly, I really need urgent advise as I can't have access to my apartment or to my wife again. As her twin sister moved in to my small apartment with her 4 kids and loads of clothes and some other luggages. Therefore, no single space left in my parlour to sit or leave again.
I am mentally stress with what am passing through now. For 2 weeks now, I can't sleep in a small house am managing with my wife and our 4 kids too.
The issue at hand is not even about apartment alone but also of feeding. Now, before now, my wife used to manage 2500 to feed all of us for breakfast alone. But now, she barely manage 6000 every morning. Thereby, increase daily expenses on food to like 14-16k daily depends on my pocket. And the funny thing is that, both the sisters are not working so as to at least support with something.
For now, am managing to pass night in my shop, but twice in a day they will send my first child to my shop to fetch money for food. Am really tire. I am just a bloody welder. I don't know how to take care of these migrants going forward.
My wife can't drive away her twins sister by herself, am also too timid to drive them because of human feeling in me. Pls what do I do. I really need help and serious advise from fellow Nigerian and non- Nigerian.
when you have high bp and die your wife, her sis and all the kids will find another man house to cover head
Malocity: A question some people need to ask themselves before talking like "Too Good" persons with human sympathy is DID INEC POSTPONE THE SAID UPCOMING GENERAL ELECTION BECAUSE OF FLOOD SO AS POLITICAL PARTIES TO DO SAME TO HALT TILL THE FLOOD IS OVER?
The average Obedient did not go to school na... logical thinking is not their forte
NOETHNICITY: This Obi dude of presidential candidate is such a huge joke. Whenever he opens his mediocre mouth to speak he simply reveals his foolishnesssss
Peter Obi talks about the problems, laments and lament and then draws outrageous comparisons. He never states how he would fix identified problems and even when he attempts to, it lacks depth.
He is not offering any new ideas and he is not campaigning on his record. The only reason he is a top contender is because of the army of deplorable backing him.
