Empty campaign promises.

Make him the gov of his state,he will end up disgracing his generation like our current president "Buhari".

Oga...Peter obi has been two term governor of anambra state, and during these periods, he dared anybody to come say one (not two) campaign promise he made and didn't fulfil. He is not like every other Nigerian politician.

Said it continuously before 2015 when he stood as running mate and as if I knew what economic tragedies were coming to Nigeria. For our economy he is the right person for the job.

But with such deep, fundamental problems besetting Nigeria which always throws up bad leadership choices, it be wishful thinking to imagine it will ever happen.

Sentiment will stand firmly against him. I don't think Nigerians have suffered enough to be cleansed and rid of sentiment.

Campaigning or not, the day Nigerians wake up to realise that they need someone like Peter Obi as president irrespective of tribe or religion is the day they have gone back onto the track of progress.

- Was Wike able to get Sars Fakorede out of Rivers in 2018?
- Was Amaechi able to get commissioner Mba out in 2015?
The two cases here are different. In Anambra at the time they have a state funded security team which SARS was incorporated into just like you have OP Mesa or RSS in Lagos.....so Obi could have found out what was going on and get that guy out

When human right people were able to influence his posting out of Anambra didn't Obiano influence him back to the state?
Security is not under the control of Governors in Nigeria but they have some level of influence and access to channels to make things happen.

We need to know the truth bf we praise these thieves.

Governance has gone beyond, I paid teachers, I constructed roads and brides, gave scholarship, etc. Even the most corrupt of Nig politicians pull all those stunts.

The fact that ANAMBRA is still an under developed state till this very day, Is all the evidence we need to judge Peter Obi as an incompetent governor during his tenure.

Nigeria is cursed.

Before I proceed further, I need to as you, are you from anambra? How Long have you lived in anambra? For the records though, I have lived in the state for 29 years, so I know anambra before and after Peter. If I say that that dude is the best governor anambra has ever had, believe me for it

No one is seeking someone like Mr. Peter Obi to develop Nigeria. Nigeria simply cannot be developed with the present way it is constituted, ie. the way it is structured. What he brings to government are specific skills in attacking the perennial virus of rampaging government financial recklessness that has made organising society near impossible and absolutely discourages the citizenry from contributing more to the state purse by way of productivity and taxation.

He is someone who walked the talk in Anambra. If elected he will know that is the basis of his ascension and will be galvanised to do same at the Federal level. The extent to which he will succeed once more depends on the overwhelming influence of the nation's structure but one thing for sure. It will be case of taste and see that the policy of government prudence can indeed work and this alone will unlock great opportunities for internal revenue generation through taxes and galvanised productivity.

Right now productivity is at an all time low due to inflation, savings are nonexistent due to the exchange rate and the average Nigerian swears at taxation when he sees what government does with its treasury. We need to reverse that scenario fast to get out of this rut.

The good thing about his austerity specialty is that it doesn't require prolonged application. Just a year or two will produce the necessary psychological results and the thawing of the economy. That is the extent to which the present political class is grossly mismanaging.

Peter Obi is the kind of leader that when you present budget for the new year, he will tell you
"You have done very well. But the projects in the budget you presented last year hasn't been completed up to 50% yet. I went round and I saw them myself. And since I also saw many of the same projects in this budget, you can continue using the funds released last year to continue it. I managed to get estimates for the work you have done and I know how much is left. You will hear from me."

Guy don't let hate turn you to laughing stock. Peter Obi is the almighty Anambra that you know today. The guy stocked a lot of money for Obiano to loot and build stupid things including the airport to the extent that Obiano brags that he doesn't need loans to complete projects.

Which state in west Africa is developed?

Is Nigeria even developed?

Stop hyping this thieves.

P O was an inefficient governor, just like evry other Naija gov.

You know the truth.

What ever feat he achieved as a governor is too shallow to atract real growth and dev in in his state.

Kindly compare Anambra with any state in the Arab world. Forget say those guys get oil, they have high standards has regards dev. Its has been in their DNA right from the days of Babylon.

So true but messed it up by handing over to Willie. Now the state is at a standstill.

Peter Obi did a good job in Anambra state, but I felt he should have mentored people who served with him during his eight years as Governor and whom he knew were in agreement with his Political philosophy. If he had done this, it would have been easy for him to pick a worthy successor to himself, who would have continued his laudable programs, rather than bringing in an outsider he did not really know too well, politically.
The above method, I believe was adopted by Tinubu, in Lagos State, when he brought in a worthy successor in the person of Fashola who continued from where Tinubu stopped in the governance of the state.

Governance is a vast continum in the lives of people.
When Peter Obi became Governor, the state's infrastructure were badly dilapidated, so he had to focus so much on this side of governance because you can not attract investments to any state with poor or non existent infrastructures.
Peter Obi also cut down on the cost of governance and transfered the savings to education and industrialization of the state.
I remember in an interview PO granted once, he said he left behind a lot of savings for the state with the hope that his successor will continue from where he stopped by providing other infrastructure like power, economic diversification and attraction of both local and foreign investors to the state.
The only place I will fault him is that he did not groom a worthy successor who shared similar economic and political ideals with himself, so that the successor would have continued from where he stopped.
