Buhari asking for amnesty for Boko Haram was way after his failed attempt at stopping Niger Delta's. Those boys will never let it end. So how does Peter Obi want to do it?

That's why I'm saying since Buhari couldn't do it, no one will be able to. Peter Obi shouldn't toll that part if not Nigeria will get too hot from him.
The only way to stop them is if your military is enough to protect every inch of the country.

But buhari was on it until his long leave for health challenge, remember he was after tompolo for a long while, while arranging the Ogoni cleanup which never happened.. if he had maintained that pressure, he would win.. you cant fight the government and expect to win on such issues..

Should I remind you of what the Senate did to Buhari when he wanted to stop budget padding in 2016. That's the Senate where the majority are in his party o.
They didn't approve the budget and for almost half a year, Nigeria was running without a budget.

With all Buhari's power and him being a Fulani general, he gats bend and allowed them have their way.

Yet Obi is saying he can do all these..

Both him and his supporters doesn't even know how things work in this country.
U can't compare Buhari to Obi... Certainly, with all due respect, Obi is more informed and knowledgeable in civilian democractic philosophy...
Obi doesn't depend on aides, he personally gets involved in most progressive developments. So, u can barely lie or deceive him wen it comes to governance and parastatals.

I believe Atiku and possibly Tinubu know diz things just like Obi. But d point is, will corruption and hunger for wealth n power allow dem to assert dem? Will dey have d strong will to serve d people and deliver d mandate handed over to dem by d people? Does their conscience still work? Still moved by empathy? ... I mean, do dey feel d suffering and hardship people face in dis country?

Obi is an economist. From precedence, he doesn't like unnecessary spending. He certainly will cut d bogus cost of governance, shaddy projects, etc...

If not him,@Obi, we need people like him.

Buhari gave the SE a reason to call for attention while claiming victim, it happened with GEJ on SW aswell, he wanted to counter that with the Speaker HOR, but Tinubu was faster to hold on to that victim chance he had got.... the 5% speech was in 2015, the first set of security appointments were in 2015, which set a sequence of other gaffes until his health challenge set the popularity decline in motion....
loads of crap.
The 5% changed nothing as buhari still won in 2019 the same region he won in 2015.
Those who went against him in the Senate were brutally voted out in 2019
What does that tell you?


Jonathan lost after sidelining the Yorubas that fought for him all his presidency.
Buhari won despite sideline igbos and calling them 5%.

I can see people saying "this man doesn't understand governance". The typical Nigerian is used to bad governance and suffering, they see it as a norm. That's why whenever they see attempt at good governance, they deem it impossible and unrealistic.

Birds born in a cage believe flying high to be an aberration. All those kids talking that crap, thinking it makes them sound sophisticated were all born post '99 into a twisted political ideology.

Wot exactly are u saying?

The young man said he governed Anambra with no legislature from his party. Is da a lie?
He served 8yrs. Even when his mandate was stolen, he fought back a repossessed his mandate. Is d man not wonderful?

Like he said, wen dey see he's doing well, dey will join him. Dey can aswell join his party @Labour Party.

I think he has a charisma da guards him. He has force/vision in his words/actions.

Is it not legislature that impeaches executive?

You are inviting trouble when you have an opposition legislature. Obi is thumping chest that he can rule with opposition because he treats politics like a juvenile. His gullible Obi supporters are applauding him.

Mr Peter Obi...

CAMPAIGN FOR YOUR PARTY...

Your goal should be to win and win with your party aspirants winning their various positions too.

This statement, if true is shaded with selfish and personal interest only...and shows you are not a party man!

We are not open to experimenting with leadership. Even if we are, it will not be Obi in leadership.

Beside building brewery, discriminating against non-Anambra ibo, discriminating against other ethnics, against anglicans, against osu, Obi cannot point to a major social development that advanced people. He ran a government of non inclusion. When asked what he achieved he points to brewery and leaving 28 billion naira behind.

Beside, he was impeached because his legislature was opposed to him.

I have given examples locally on what to expect when an executive is working with opposition. I can give you examples abroad. Every president that has ever been impeached or had their administration stalled, also had opposition party in majority at the assembly or parliament.

Obi is clueless, and lacks understanding on what it will take to rule Nigeria. That statement is reckless, shows he needs tutelage under Tinubu to learn skills in politicking the Nigerian way.

He has not lost his mind, only lying as usual. He'll decamp back to either PDP or APC depending on who is majority, but likely PDP as his goons are there. He did same as governor. His hoodwinked followers don't know the mess we're in.

He learnt that shit from Atiku, decamping from one party to another and swindling gullible electorate. Like the statement, he can lead even if LP is not in majority. Many of his Obiends are retweeting it and cheering him on making a most foolish statement in public. I guess that's what spurs them on, foolishness.

Before APC took over power, how many members was it having in d red/green Chambers?
...certainly PDP was leading in everything. But today, d scenario has changed. That's how it works. When power changes hand, it alters everything.

If labour party wins comes 2023, alot of legislature will defect to labour party. Not only that; Politicians contesting under d platform will gather more momentum. And in no time, dey would become majority in d house.

U don't need rocket science to understand this.

I am voting Obi because he is the best out of our southern contestants. Hope you know that Obi cannot rule Nigeria well without restructuring ? He has never mentioned that and I wonder what magic he will perform to take Nigeria out of this dark age that we in right now .Does he think to rule Nigeria under this sick unitary system will work? I hope It does not mess up all the good intentions he has for this country. if he does not sit down to know the foundation of our problem, then he will end up like other leaders that came with good intentions and end up doing the opposite . Anambra is not thesame as ruling the whole nation . I hope he know that .

They will frustrate your efforts; you will not get anything done.

It takes far more to govern a country than a state.

That is why Fashola has almost zero impact as minister despite his sterling performance in Lagos.

The Avengers we're ready to turn the oil production to zero. In just 2-3 months they turned our oil production from 2 million to 800k. Where will the Government get money to pay salaries if that continues?
If Buhari with he strong head nor fit stop them na come Peter Obi?
By the time Obi cannot pay salaries and people start raining abuse on him, he will let the corruption flow.

When he need to take loans for infrastructures and the Senates does not approve it unless he let them pad Budget wetin he go do?
