Even if Obi didn't do any project, he is eminiently qualified on the basis of EQUITY. If Nigeria must survive Obi should be the next president else, note it down, it's the beginning of the end of one Nigeria.

Importing is killing our economy, others are innovating, manufacturing, processing, make money in a way that develops your economy, not just importing substandard products. Alaba and small shop business contribute less than 2% of Lagos state revenue, the prime real estate zones in Nigeria, Banana Island, Asokoro, Maitama, Victoria Island, Ikoyi, Lekki phase1, are mainly owned by yorubas, Hausas, deltans mainly, you people are just loitering with the crumbs, areas like Ibeju Lekki inner zones etc is where you see Igbo drug dealers buying lands now, yorubas and Hausas own the main Real estate values in prime areas in Nigeria, who owns the banks, yorubas, deltans, Hausas, who owns big manufacturing, the Okoyas, the Jimoh Ibrahim's, Dangote, Otedola, Alakijas. Blue chip companies, designation of head offices by companies in Lagos, ports, and good tax system is how Lagos makes its money not igbos. Igbos need Lagos, that's why Alaba men must appease APC, otherwise they can move them out, people are queuing for that space. Stop bragging on crumbs. Importing is bad for Nigeria economy. We all must invest in manufacturing, processing. Stop being so greedy and self centered. Manufacture, produce, process, and mine natural resources, and employ teeming Igbo youths, committing suicide via carrying drugs into Malaysia, Indonesia, it's only desperation that will make a man risk his existence for money. This is why so many Igbo youths have turned to terrorists under Ipob. Invest in what will give your people jobs. This is what Lagos has done, created an economically viable state, well empowered police trust fund, good security, freedoms, liberty, tolerance. Bigotry always never does a people good. You sound very myopic and uninformed.

Lols. Your rage is real man. I can see the fumes from your nose. grin grin The lies you have to tell yourself to be alive. It's not easy to be you man. There no hope for you, you'll die a hater, no need to preach. The envy in you is deadly you can kill another fellow, that's if you haven't done so many times already. You really spent all your write-up not making a constructive argument but simply raging like a wild bull with your hateful rhetorics because somebody pushed your mumu button by revealing someone's success story.

Keep hating bro. Your life must really suck, at this point all i feel for you is pity, i just wished you found some time to channel all this hate into something meaningful. Shame on you and your Kind!

Tinubu's project is why all your successful men have ran away from Anambra to Lagos, even Obi. Reality bites.

Yes all the Europoeans, chinese, Americans that live in Jos, Calabar, Enugu, Lagos, portharcourt, Owerri, and all across the third world countries and the rest of the world at large basically ran away from their countries because it wasn't good enough for them.

It's an insult to call your lots illiterates. You are just plainly stupid and hopeless. Bunch of propaganda machines, spreading false and illogical roadside arguments to feed your popular hate culture.

You see white you call it black, you see black you call it white. You are clearly stupid and listen I make no apologies, come up with reasonable arguments next time, this format don cast since.

Even an slowpoke knows that 20 shoe makers cannot live together and expect to offer services to one another. As they are able to fix their shoe problems each to himself. Lawyers do not look to fellow lawyers as clients, they must must go outside their profession to do same. Each market is unique and must be explored. Beyond that who are you to tell anyone where and how to make a living. By the way each tribe has its vices so no need to garbage along with you on that. You are as tribal as they come.

You are clearly bereft of all common sense and truth. Try to be less foolish next time, and please, Piss off!

What of the longest km of road he built with three bridges from Isi aguata through Aguluezechuwu ,Ogboji, Akpu and ajali with dual drainages. Peter obi is next to God don't let anyone deceive you

Your words are truth. Abeg kindly modify the God aspect ejoor, doesnt seem right at all, Infact it was a wrong call. Kindly refrain from such statements, if you are a believer ask for forgiveness, if not still do abeg, no allow passion make you blaspheme God.

Obi will transform Nigeria if he is able to conquer all the hate and propaganda against him, and he will by Gods grace. All this campaign of culumny against his person will end in praise.

Nah it doesn't work that way, we are in Lagos, you can only lie to fools. Alaba is where you find mainly Igbo traders, Alaba is not a highbrow area of Lagos, a lot of substandard products in this market. This market contribute to our importation problem in Nigeria. There are thousands of malls and plazas owned by foreigners and people of diverse tribes. Alaba is a microcosm, when it comes to tax revenues or IGR in Lagos. The luxury hotels, banks, oil conglomerate head offices, blue chip companies, and thousands of service and product based businesses across Lagos provides the accumulative IGR. Stop miseducating the public. Your business is peanuts when it comes to businesses in Lagos. All these talk about owning houses in Lekki is all lies. Igbos mainly do small businesses in Lagos.

And the trophy for most tribalistic igbo hater goes to patriotsleague. We get the point now, Igbos are the most useless things on the planet. Job well done. You can now go and take a nap. I just hope you haven't suffered a heart attack because of this thread.

Those people you call do not sell gala in go slow, they don't sell fake goods in alaba market, and they don't sell fake drugs, they don't constitute nuisance, selling even where not authorized. Foreigners come with real money, create real businesses that creates jobs. What you people do is import, which is bad for our economy and one man business. It only benefits you and your families. Nnamdi Kanu and Ojukwu are the most foolish people that ever lived, for destroying the destiny of igbos, turning your lands to a desolate region, filled with cannibals and terrorists. My point is no one needs your services in Lagos, can't you see that Lagos state government is clamping down on illegal shops?

Shut your ignorant mouth, Obiano's arrest by EFCC was purely witchunt and that is why nothing came out of it. He was arrested because he stopped Malami and his gang from rigging Anambra election. How can you foolishly say a governor with Immunity was invited by EFCC. Listen Obiano is one of the finest Nigerian Governors ever, if you dont know his achievements then check the thread below.. He is not a media man. He has gone to EFCC cleared his name, travelled and still returned to Nigeria to campaign for his wife for senate so stop saying what you dont know.

Your tribe are the kings of bigotry, only Igbo lands today in the whole Nigeria is where they kill non igbos, only igbos stays in Igbo land. Is that not why you want your biafra, so only igbos will be in it?

Then everyone else will chase you back to your beloved Biafra. You people are the biggest bigots in Nigeria, you hate Hausa, hate Yoruba, kill Hausas in igboland. You are very foolish if you think we Nigerians do not know that igbos are the most selfish bigots in Nigeria. The bigotry that plunged you into war in 1962, you are still deep in bigotry,look around Igbo land, do you see other tribes there?

You need other tribes, other tribes don't need you, that's why you move everywhere like refugees, because nothing in your region.

E shock you abi? Peter Obi is different from your cash doling corrupt politicians. That is why non of your corrupt politicians have been able to accuse him of corruption.

Everybody knows that HE Obi tried but he did not do much projects like you are projecting.
There is a reason all states and governors have information sectors and they always make use of news platforms.They even do periodic magazines to reel out the different strides of the govt.
You have not posted any verifying evidence to show that HE Obi did many projects in Anambra during his tenure.
To most people here,you are just making jokes if you dont post a kind of medium to support the pictures you are posting.
If any newspaper clip you post is false,we would see another from opposition parties or his antagonists that will counter the news.
The ones shown and posted by Tinubu supporters are factual and a truism compared to these 'from the blues' being posted by you.
Let us see supporting tabloids for all you have posted.
Anambrians will not be angry with Obi if he had done these few projects you posted.
Some were on nairaland here calling him a curse and bad omen to Anambra.
Nobody did that to Tinubu even his traducers.

Ever heard the maxim "res ipsa loquitur" it means the thing speaks for itself. I will not speak of what a hospitable and wonderful people Igbos are as I may seem biased. I leave that to peeps who encounter, live, do business and transact with IGBOS on a daily basis.

Contrary to your propaganda, there are lots of non statesmen resident in Eastern states with properties and facilities to their names. Including yorubas, hausas and every tribe you can think of, Igbos are perhaps even more friendlier to strangers than to their kin and kith.

Igbos voted for OBJ, YARADUA, GOODLUCK, ATIKU. Every reasonable facts and indices indicates O contrari to your postulations. Stop the hate. Nobody in this world has more reasons to hate yorubas than myself I have gone through terrible experiences of life too numerous to document, but I choose not to judge the rest by the actions of a few. Here i am playing defence, not like I cannot write-up fifteen pages of worse hate speeches.

Did the closing of border in any way helped the masses or they use it to frustrate some people and allowed their political friends to do their import.

Tinubu is talking based on the experiences with the igbos and Hausas, civil war etc. He said he doesn't believe in one Nigeria, he did not say he did.not believe in Nigeria, this is different from Obi's son standing on the national flag and obi demanding the federal government release Kanu, a known ipob leader that commanded the killing of Nigerian security operatives and innocent igbos were kidnapped by his urchins and prisoners Ipob released from jail. Tinubu did not say he didn't believe in Nigeria, he said he didn't believe in 'one Nigeria', if you understand English, you will understand the difference. Tinubu is absolutely correct, you can't force all states to be one, but we can live in tolerance under the laws of the nation. True federalism means, every nation will determine its destiny. We don't have to be one, let's just obey the laws, in true federalism states have their own laws. Focus on your region, Tinubu is right, igbos hate yorubas, Hausas hate igbos, you can't force love. Tinubu is a realist, not people living in an illusion, believing Obi will come with a magic wand. It's the systems that carry out the work. Tinubu is absolutely right. He believes in Nigeria, but based on our history, one Nigeria is a myth. Mediocre hypocrites like you can't understand. We don't have to be one, since we want secession etc, let's focus on true federalism.

How old was Amoda Ogunlere when he stole the Identity of Late Miss Bola Tinubu in order to travel with her traveling Documents?

ANSWER

87 minus 70 that’s 17 years because the late Bola daughter of Baba Kafaru Tinubu would have been 70years today according to her documents which Amoda now possess as his own. Amoda was 17years when he transformed into Bola Tinubu may her gentle soul Rest In Peace. Amen

Many of you are NOT intelligent at all.


1) Amoda was born in 1935

2) Amoda would have been 17years in 1952.

3) So Amoda used Bola's traveling documents to enter the US in 1952?

I have hun and also read the link you provided in the other thread.

Sorry about the delay in replying..shopping, afternoon nap( a must on weekends cheesy) etc.

So I read up on Pandora papers and whilst not a good look, not exactly a smoking gun. A lot of prominent people use shell companies to hide their funds and avoid tax. Whilst not illegal, it is immoral.

I guess two things I'm mulling are

1) what was the exact nature of the transactions he sought to conceal I.e were they legal and simply to avoid tax obligations or were they illegal?

I guess the mitigating factor here ( might be myopic of me) is that the trusts were all set up before his tenure as governor, not during- which would lead to me to assume he did it to conceal funds appropriated from the public purse?

2) Should we overlook the fact that he failed to declare these interests? I mean compared to what we know these government officials get up, some I've seen up close and personal, this is small in comparison but should it be dismissed on that basis?

Not entirely certain. Thank you for the brilliant write-up in response to my question. I aprishate gidi gan.

Okay... Happy Sunday, dear. cheesy

So you're Yoruba sef? I had no idea o. But anyhow, ko t'ope.

Below is an interview by PO himself addressing the claims in the Papers:


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=35-kgC_oqdA

I hope you've got time? I have not even finished watching it, but it seems he's addressed all of it to the 20-minutes mark. I can't say if he revisited the issues towards the end, but the allegations in the paper were put to him first within the first minutes.

Now, it is his words alone, and I take that wholly, until there is conclusive evidence showing that he used the trust company to launder money or evade tax, etc. Trust companies are used for savings, investments, and real estate plannings. So since he said the company was never used for illegitimate purposes, then the only purposes it can be used for remains legitimate. As I said, his words. Nobody can tell if he's telling the truth or he's lying... it becomes an individual thing whether you choose to believe him or not. And given his track record of integrity, I am inclined to believing him. This one, to me, is a subjective area. There is no way I can convince anyone otherwise or make them change their disposition or reservations... so you're at liberty to believe what you want about him concerning this trust issue after you've judged things yourself and examine who he is. smiley

He mentioned the company being legitimately opened for him alongside other clients of where he worked.

Now, I don't fully know how assets declaration works. He said he only declared assets COMPLETELY owned by him. 100%. Totally... he claimed he couldn't declare shares he owns together with others in a business... He talked about that at the 11:30 mark. He's an economist - one. And maybe if I see another factual economist brings a faulty reasoning or idea out in his explanation... cheesy. I'll confirm for myself too sha. If you truly cannot declare assets that are from shares in a company... because others have shares in that company too, and the company borrows money to do business, so while Peter Obi was managing the company, does he own those money and the assets of the company? That was the reason why he did not declare some of his assets. He owned them together with others. Listen to his explanation for more clarification.

So, is it a *small issue* that should be dismissed? No. I think it is a non-issue rather that shouldn't even be given a consideration at all. He has consistently been cleared of misinformation about mismanagement of funds from the 250 million naira in his aide's convoy to SABMiller. The reasons are as clear as daylight and simple as ever... only a perception spin on these things can turn them into what they are not.

Caveat: About 10 eminent Nigerians were mentioned in the Pandora Papers and only Peter Obi, as far as I know, has presented himself to newsmen for the interview above and a clearance of himself. He CAME OUT to CLARIFY his name being mentioned in potentially destructive files. That is a big green flag to me.

How many government officials do you know who willingly present themselves to the public and securities for investigation and scrutiny?

Person wey dey petition police and EFCC say make them come look into him matter. grin

Tinubu is talking based on the experiences with the igbos and Hausas, civil war etc. He said he doesn't believe in one Nigeria, he did not say he did.not believe in Nigeria, this is different from Obi's son standing on the national flag and obi demanding the federal government release Kanu, a known ipob leader that commanded the killing of Nigerian security operatives and innocent igbos were kidnapped by his urchins and prisoners Ipob released from jail. Tinubu did not say he didn't believe in Nigeria, he said he didn't believe in 'one Nigeria', if you understand English, you will understand the difference. Tinubu is absolutely correct, you can't force all states to be one, but we can live in tolerance under the laws of the nation. True federalism means, every nation will determine its destiny. We don't have to be one, let's just obey the laws, in true federalism states have their own laws. Focus on your region, Tinubu is right, igbos hate yorubas, Hausas hate igbos, you can't force love. Tinubu is a realist, not people living in an illusion, believing Obi will come with a magic wand. It's the systems that carry out the work. Tinubu is absolutely right. He believes in Nigeria, but based on our history, one Nigeria is a myth. Mediocre hypocrites like you can't understand. We don't have to be one, since we want secession etc, let's focus on true federalism.
Your denigration can't change a bit of anything in my life. It just shows your level of maturity.
However, this is the problem I have with some of you. Somebody plainly said, he doesn't believe in one Nigeria but you that wasn't in his mind want to interpret what you presumed was in his mind. Don't help him to interpret it to suit your narrative. He said that because of political inconvenience as at that time, when he never knew what the future holds.

You know the difference between Tinubu, Obi and Atiku, the latter two are not bastards that always sell their race because of political relevance. Have you seen Atiku not supporting the ideology of the Hausas and Fulanis? Not possible. Did you recall when he wrote comment to condemn the killing of Deborah but after seen the reaction of his people he immediately deleted it. For Obi, he may not talk or say anything but he will indirectly support his people but come to Tinubu from day one he has not closely identify with Yoruba but always in defence of his political relevance. Anything that will dent his political relevance, he will fight it dirty but to support the ideology of the Yoruba, he will not. When Sunday Igboho was agitating for Yoruba nation liberation, instead of him to keep mum or show solidarity, he started attacking him, just because of his political interest. He always forgot that he is first Yoruba before he is Nigerian. In Yoruba adage, they often say, it is only a bastard that uses left hand to show the direction of his father's house. Tinubu in many instances have shown such disdain for Yoruba. You will never see him fronting Yoruba course but always at the forefront of political course that will only benefit him.

Below link will also clear your doubt of the misinterpretation you gave to what he plainly said.
