Electorate:


So, because he has contributed to political ideologies that should be enough reason he deserve to be rewarded with being President of Nigeria even on a sick bed, Is Presidency a Royal Title?

openmine:

That is not totally true!

We have leaders who can do far better than what we are witnessing today!
Provision of Power supply,curbing insecurity,repair or rebuilding of refineries and encouragement of more local production is not rocket science if we have focus driven leaders not just at the apex of power but the buttom where you have the LGA chairman!

The mere idea that there is no magic wand is a ready made excuse by some folks who are benefitting from the mess that Nigeria is currently facing!

We dont need saints to make Nigeria better,we need the right leaders who understand what needs to be done and the will power to do so!

If this administration had prioritized the rebuilding or repair of refineries in their first 4 years while lobbying for the bill to decentralize electricity in the country,we wont be in this financial mess where we have to pay a whooping 6trillion for just fuel subsidy!

How a sick old drug lord will sit in his bedroom and be shouting emi lo kan still baffles reasonable and patriotic Nigerians. What insolence! And to think it is the same person that brought this calamity called Buhari upon Nigerians is what we can't take. Our happiness is that Nigerians have made it loud and clear that it is Peter Obi they want. Peter Obi is the undisputed choice of Nigerians. Nigerians have already decided and no amount of bullion vans bribe money can make us change our minds.

MDM2021:


Seriously? The leaders who can do far better that your country has never had since its creation in 1960. Sorry! Some of your leaders who did that in the past performed when your country ran as a region-based federalism with the central government being administered by the British. That was when you had, for instance, the late sage - Awolowo - trail blazing in the Western Nigeria of then with astonishing performances. Since 1960 that the British left that country, it has never remained what it was.

You must go back to the foundation to address the root cause of your problem and stop chasing the shadows. Is this the kind of presidential system run in America? Is this the parliamentary system given to you by the UK? You can't leave leprosy and be killing ringworm. It's just a waste of time.

So if i get you correctly we should all as usual keep lamenting about our poor leaders and give up because the ones we have currently have failed us?
As much as i agree with you that we need to go back to the very foundation that adequately worked for the nation which is true federalism,we must also know that we the electorates have the mandate to elect the right personality to take us there!
The likes of Awolowo or Azikwe that you mentioned did not just find their way into leadership positions by imposition...They were elected by the citizens of the country!
We cannot keep complaining of bad leadership and yet sit still and do nothing hoping for God to miraculously drop a messiah as president to leader us...
If we want things to change,we the citizens must do our best to elect the right candidates not just in the presidency but the state and LGAs!

Realist12:
Obi just like every social media influencer is looking for attention. The "my turn" statement doesn't fit in his point but he had to chip it in . I expect APC not to give him a reply. The disdain in Zains face shows how inept Obi responses are just watch the interview again and concentrate on the interviewers facial expressions.
Of course he knows Tinubu boldly said that during the heat of "anointed candidate" because he has worked for the ambition of the party and most of their elective positions, something Obi can't boldly say , he has no contribution to any political ideology other than inheriting structures laid by others and dumping them when he sees they can't offer him more . Like APGA, like PDP now in labour that he didn't labour with ab initio.



It's ironical you talking of slaves and masters where as we know those fleeing from the shackles of one master to reside in a " No man's land " doesn't that tell you there's freedom in the land that's why you can call it "No mans land " ?
Because the land provides you freedom for economic, social , educational prosperity. Free from the Bondages Obi put y'all in . But you still want that said master you fled from his reign to reign over the" No mans land" ? You're wicked . You can't afford to go backward neither can I.
You should be happy the prince Tinubu of the " No mans land " is here to liberate you but Stockholm syndrome is holding you back . Vote Tinubu as That's the only way to reduce y'all taking the night bus to the "No mans land." You can have a taste of refined governance in your state .

For such a Physically & Mentally unfit person to be shouting emi lokan for an office of President that is not his birthright, automatically makes him an object of mockery.

May Baba God satisfy us early in life so that we will not be foolishly shouting emi lokan when hand & leg don de shake.

MDM2021:


Can Obi restructure the country? Let's be sincere with ourselves.

MDM2021:

I'm not saying people should fold hands. However, I think the issue of restructuring or the salient matters raised in the 2014 confab report should have been seriously addressed before the 2023 elections. That's why I said earlier that I don't still understand the magic wand any of the current candidates can use to solve the enormous problems.

MDM2021:

The country currently uses about 90% of its revenue to service its debt. It has gotten to the point that the national assembly is considering scrapping about 400 MDAs to curb wastage in the face of dwindling revenue. There's a nation-wide security challenge while oil - the main stay of the country's economy - is reported to have been subject to continual theft. Which of the indicators on the performance dashboard is showing a positive sign currently?

MDM2021:

The UK is made up 4 countries basically - England, Scotland, Northern Ireland and Wales. That was how the country was patterned up till 1960 - Northern Nigeria, Eastern Nigeria and Western Nigeria - when it gained its independence. The Welsh, English, Scottish, and Irish people have been able to retain their individual country till date as it were. Can that be said of your country where people are being kidnapped and killed in their ancestral lands at the moment?

openmine:


Obviously,you did not peruse my earlier point!
This is not about Obi....its about what the electorates want or desire!
It starts with electing the right people into important positions that will influence the path way to restructuring!
If we elect the same people that have kept us this way for more than 20 years of our democracy,we will still keep having this conversation!
The power to choose rest on the electorates not an individual!




The Confab report which you rightly talked about will not be discussed or done by the same leaders who want the status quo to continue!
The Confab captured resource control,state policing,Electricity decentralization etc and all we need is to ELECT TECHNOCRATS into the hollowed chambers to expedite on the laudable reports!




The national assembly should start with themselves first!
The humongous expenses they accumulate is affecting the economy!
Were they not the same assembly that approved the inauguration of these MDAS?
This is why our choice of leaders from presidency to LGA chairman is paramount!
Leaders with the willpower to declare that the present system of central Policing is obsolete and State policing is an idea whose time has come in Nigeria!
Technocrats that will waste no time in implementing the decentralization of electricity and allow states to generate their own electricity!



We cannot not be like the UK but we can chart a new course by knocking off the 'feeding bottle' federalism that we currently practice and imbibe fiscal federalism!

….you mean the Igbos have already decided in favour of Obi! Mind you, Obi can secure 99% of the votes in SE and still lose the election.
The Presidency will be decided largely by the North…..make no mistake about that. As a result of perennial illiteracy, they are the only ones that still have an unthinking followership in large numbers that simply follow the directives of their leadership without question!
So, prepare for a shocker!!

MDM2021:


If the country's experience from 1960 is anything to go by, I'm sure time has spoken except we have chosen not to reason with the voice of time. If we want to continue to experiment and search for the leaders we've not had since the independence of 1960 and following the subsequent inglorious destruction of the regional system bequeathed to us, time will speak again.

One can either be a saint or sinner, no sitting on the fence. And I maintain that among the crop of politicians we have around us today, a saint is scarce. Aren't they the same set of people jumping from one party to another? Everyone fighting for their selfish objectives. So, where are the good leaders to appoint and who will appoint them? The mass illiterate and poverty-stricken people that constitute the bulk of the voters? People that have had their mind fixated by culture and religion to think in a particular way? The people you have not been able to change for over 100 years of amalgamation and 60 years of independence? I laugh...

The earlier the reality is faced, the earlier the problem is given a pragmatic solution. Your cultures, ways of life, approaches to issues and tradional ways of governance are miles different. That was why you were given the regional system in 1960. The problem that incursioned into the regional system post 1960 could have been avoided if the central government was still under the control of the British while each region continued to grow at its pace.

Meanwhile, I don't believe we can't have a system SIMILAR to the UK's, I only believe we can't have what is EXACTLY like the UK's. If a system worked prior to independence, why can't it work today? Like I said, time will tell if the coming elections will usher in the leaders that will solve the problems on ground. We'll continue to study the trend of events as they unfold.

Obi cannot win but he is living in your head 24/7 giving you sleepless nights. Self-deception of the agbadorians. Continue to deceive yourself.

The same North that could not make Buhari president in three attempts until Tinubu polish his bad image and repackaged him using SW media.

the same obi of anambra now wants to become president even when he doesn’t have anything to campaign with

One day ikpeazu will tell us he wants to become president too
