Why do some of you like talking and reasoning like toddlers? Everything you turn into "Obi does not bribe" simplistic garbage.

Will Obi lead Nigeria on his own? This is someone who has shown clearly he does not have even minimal ability to lead other men, institutions, political party and administrative processes.

Yet you all somehow think his 'stingy' reputation will miraculously make him fit to lead the very complex Nigeria that actually needs a commander of men and processes not a little boy our NSA, COAS, immigration bosses, border control chiefs etal will undermine at will as happened to GEJ and detrimentally for Nigeria.

Someone like Tinubu has earned the right to lead and be respected by even the most cabalistic of men. He has mentored the greatness of political platforms and the political election win of many individuals while Obi has never concerned himself with such vitally important endeavors.

OP is totally correct. Only the gullible and ignorant will think Obi has a chance. Those who mobilize and win elections for candidates will never back or work for Obi. Simple as that.

As an example, PMB had never won a single SW States in all his previous attempts to be President before 2015. Yet with Tinubu working for him, Buhari cleared all SW States bar Ekiti that resolute Fayose won for GEJ and PDP.

That is the cold and brutal reality of Nigerian politics no Obidient' rhetoric and youth "third force" noise can change.

At the end of the day, let all Nigerians go out and vote who they want but we must all bear in mind the fact that Nigerian youths are not actually excluded from participating in politics by the 'old boys' as they claim.

Rather it is the ignorance of Nigerian youths, disinterest in 'learning the trade', their unhelpfully blind idealism, complete lack of pragmatic thinking and their foolish refusal to behave like Romans when in Rome that has excluded them from powerful engagement in politics.

Nigerian youth 'play' themselves and thus miss out on offices and roles that will see them making the changes they want to see from inside via usage of powerfully entrenched platforms like APC and PDP.


I am talking about you and others who speak in ways that shows you have no second or third gear and can never ever think outside the box.

Why do I need to explain what is simple to understand? Simply show me anything in Obi's history that shows he is an effective team leader able to delegate wisely and effectively, using other leaders, to deliver solutions as is critical to the success of a Nigerian President.

We know Tinubu's history shows he is a great team leader able to delegate effectively and use the best hands everywhere to deliver solutions.

A president is effectively a manager. That is what most Nigerians , especially our ignorant and idealistic youths, don't understand.

Simply shown where Obi, at anytime in his political history, has shown the ability to lead well as a 'manager' and solve problems for the team.

Taking the simple analogy of football, it is crystal clear the best manager in world football know how to manage different players ,with different skills and capability, to bring their football club success.

What did Obi make of Anambra? Where are those he has mentored who have gone on to become members of our federal cabinet even under the Igbo-friendly GEJ?

Shall I name how many of Tinubu's proteges are in top jobs today?

What of APGA? Did OBJ make the Party greater, more focused and more dominantly successful?

Obi's stint in PDP nko? Unremarkable and mediocre. He even fled the Party a total nobody after failing to establish himself a leadership heavyweight no one should be able to brush aside or discard casually.

Born leaders and supreme managers of men, entities, institutions and processes stand out wherever they find themselves and excel everywhere. Obi has excelled nowhere at all , as a leader, and even his Anambra CV appearing nothing but a contrived fraud designed to hide the fact he is a failure.


Obi did not face even a tenth of what Tinubu faced in APC, for the past few years, yet he fled whereas Tinubu believed he had done enough as a leader to be able to count on the support of other leaders regardless of the obstacles in his path.

Who wants a President other leaders cannot fight for in the sole interest of delivering solutions for Nigeria?

On close inspection it is obvious Peter Obi is media hype and an individual (since I can never call him a leader) with no substance at all.

jesmond3945:
i understand your premise. But you have to understand that obi is not desperate to become president rather he is offering himself as an alternative to the old way of doing things. If the country was doing good and people are happy of course they would continue with the old way of doing things. Unless you are telling me people are not tired of the insecurity and high cost of living even with all the resources surrounding us. Take it more like a revolution. However, if people are comfortable with the state of things no problem. You talked about people undermining you. People will undermine you when you inherit a corrupt and old system that is no longer palatable. For example if obi comes in and appoint good and honest people technocrat who love the country, i dont think anybody will undermine him. What you have now is a dead structure, people are looking for opportunity to loot and steal for their kids. Not for your kids oooo but their own. Your kids can go to hell for all they care.
So thats it, probably you can japa for the good of your kids but as Nigeria continues this way our children will pay the price of it

2023: Only Tinubu can take on cabal holding Nigeria hostage — Kokori
June 13, 2022


…says Buhari is a good man but surrounded himself ruthless cabal


By Festus Ahon, ASABA

ERSTWHILE Secretary General of the National Union of Petroleum and Natural Gas Workers, NUPENG, Chief Frank Ovie Kokori, has said Presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Asiwaju Ahmed Bola Tinubu, was the only aspirant under the party’s platform with the capacity to take on the cabal that has held Nigeria hostage for the past seven years.


Kokori who was reacting to the victory of Asiwaju Ahmed Bola Tinubu at APC Presidential primary, said; “Tinubu winning this election is hallelujah to me. He is the only strong personality who can break the cabal that has been in charge of this country all the years of Buhari’s rule”.

While blaming the cause of the socio-economic woes bedeviling the country in the past seven years on the cabal, he said “President Muhammadu Buhari is a good man, but he allowed persons with self-serving interest around him to derail his focus.

“The joy I have on the result of the primary election is because I knew that among all the aspirants, Tinubu is the only one who will have the guts to step on toes.

“He is the only person who can take on the cabal that has put Nigeria in hostage for the past seven years. He broke the myth surrounding the cabal.



“Buhari is a good man, no doubt about that, but he is not in touch with the people in the country and with what is happening in this country because he surrounded himself with a cabal that is so ruthless and who always struggle for their personal aggrandizement to the extent that they monetize public positions in this country.

“He gave all his power to his cabal and as a result, those people without connection in the country are not able to be in position of power.

“Most of the problems we have in this nation are not being solved because of the same reason. Nobody should pretend; we all know that most of the positions in the country were being monetized and sold out by the cabals.

“Nigeria is in a state where 300 students can be kidnapped at a go; a train load of passengers can be hijacked and people worshipping in the Church can just be killed at will. Life has become so cheap and brutal.

“Is this still not the same Nigeria some of us grew up in in the 60s and 70s? This generation of Nigerians pray everyday for a better life.

“So many Nigerians are streaming abroad. I always shed tears when I see my people, the young Africans dying in the deserts and high seas trying to crossover to other countries.

“Nigeria was the hope of Africa and we enjoyed it up till the 70s to the early 80s. When we fought for freedom and democracy, we thought that after gaining what we fought for, our country would be a better place for everybody.

“But right from the days of Obasanjo, it has been oppression and victimization, exploitation by the same people we struggled to put in power.

“I don’t think there’s a better candidate than Tinubu; who can take on the cabal and rescue Nigeria finally”.

On Tinubu’s health status, Kokori said; “I was worried about his health, but I know that once a person crosses the age of 50, he tends to face different health challenges and that is normal in the whole world.

“Buhari himself had this challenge but today, he is one of the fittest persons. So, his health challenges should not be a problem so long he doesn’t have a terminal disease”.

Continuing, he said: “Nigeria has been fair to Tinubu so he should return the fairness and lead her back to her glorious days. I’m happy that I’m alive to see this day and I will continue to give him any assistance he desires. He should use the remaining time of his life to save the country.”

Bro, you don't get it. Nigeria is full of very scary monsters who raze whole villages to the ground with no consequences. They are the same people responsible for insecurity now. Nothing to do with Tinubu that Buhari ostracised, as the man in power, and failed to listen to as soon as he became President.

Buhari came with his own agenda and trying to rope Tinubu into his failures is simply disingenuous and dishonest given how we all saw the treatment dished out to Tinubu by many like Buni, Adamu etal that Buhari deployed as APC hatchet men. They made a public show of trying to freeze out Tinubu and BAT graciously still remained loyal to the APC.

If you think Obi and 'technocrats' can fight those I believe to be the most murderously ruthless rulership cabal in the world then you are an example of why Nigerian youths will always lack the requisite pragmatism, brutal toughness and political nous to thrive in our politics.

People forget Tinubu was a youth when he began his political journey. Yet he was a different type of youth to me and you. He believed you must behave like a Roman when in Rome rather than insist on being an Englishman in New York.

Providence has given us Tinubu who is the only man capable of fighting those holding Nigeria down yet still a force for good and a proponent of progress.

We saw him demonstrate this lately. Adamu is an unashamedly passionate promoter of Northern supremacy who rushed to crown Lawan APC 'consensus candidate' because a Northerner continuing in power is all he dreams of and not what will benefit all Nigerians.

Tinubu was in his residence to confront and tackle him after Adamu tried to organise a Lawan 'coup d'etat'. Meanwhile Obi fled rather than face Atiku, Wike etal. He chose the soft option of Labour Party where he can get a ticket unchallenged by anyone.

Tell me if Nigeria is or has ever been a soft option. After that you should then think about the sort of President Nigeria needs rather than fck around with idealism about technocrats and such.

NOI is acclaimed universally as a superior technocrat from Nigeria. Yet what was she able to achieve under the weak and easily bullied/cowered GEJ?

These things are not Rocket Science brain busters. What Nigeria needs , ahead of anything else, is a brave and resolute reformer, with power flowing through his being and essence, who can get together the most competent hands available and empower/protect them to deliver for Nigeria.

That is never Peter Obi and can never be him. Yet folks who are not tribalistic and do not lie to themselves know this is Tinubu 100%.

Ttalk:


I quite agree with you on the alleged position of Nigerian youth. I always asked which Nigerian youth are we talking about. Was it the online Nigerian youth that want wish to turn to reality without lifting a finger. Or the real youth like myself who has been actively involved in Nigeria politics right from teenage age and who worked 12 years post graduate within the corridor of political power with first hand experience in Nigeria political system.

God bless you and empower your political hustle. Yahaya Bello became a Governor aged 39-40. How can Nigerian youths , without trying at all, simply conclude that youths that show up and compete will always be denied?

It is for Bello and others like him to lead by example, recognise their exalted position as symbols of 'youth power', to then show everyone that the Nigerian youths are ready to be trusted with great power.

With great power comes great responsibility but the Nigerians youths who have gotten great power, like Bello and Dimeji Bankole, have let themselves and Nigerian youths down.

I am active in Nigerian politics but I will never let Nigerian youths down if I ever get into the position of Bello or Bankole because I believe that aware and focused youths must set the pace for other youths by leading exemplarily.

Keep doing your thing but remember that delivering tangible dividends of democracy, as an elected leader, is all that matters. It is what continues to work for Tinubu today despite numerous obstacles thrown in his path.

mycar:
People should understand that Peter obi is not a power drunk kind of politician. He is the image of Nigerian youth. He is a modern man, he will be open to international best practices. He has no God father, all the corrupt politicians simply know that there will be nothing for them. He is of the caliber of Osinbajo. He has international backing. He will uplift our image abroad. He is a cultures man too.
No bad reputation abroad
Nigerians choose wisely and get out of this useless backwardness, it does nobody any good. You won't die if you give him your mandate for four years

A man that have changed party 3 times is seen as not desperate. But a man that has stayed in one party all his life is the desperate one.

That's why Nigeria is stagnant. If your location refuses to improve you, change your location.
It is better to be alone than to be in a bad company too and finally, you can't keep doing the same thing over and over and expect a different result, you have to be dynamic as a young man.

It's called being dynamite when it's Peter Obi but desperation when it's Atiku and others. Wonders shall not end
