This Is Not Fair: Peter Obi Taken To The Cleaners Over His Widows Mite Donation To Anambra Flood Victims

Peter Obi, the LP presidential candidate and former Anambra State governor, has come under fire for purportedly providing a griding machine and some loaves of bread to thousands of flood victims ravaged by flood in Anambra.

According to internet users who spent the weekend mocking the presidential candidate, it was a disgrace that a full-fledged former governor of a state, let alone a presidential candidate, could donate relief materials worth less than a million naira to flood-ravaged communities. While some have argued that the widow's mite is always the best donation, others have said it is a no-no for Peter Obi.

Check out some trending remarks that have painted the presidential candidate as a stingy man who should be avoided at all costs.

Oluwayemisi L. Ajayi

"That is what I am already doing, Gesare, you can see I am urging the former Governor of Anambra State to do more for his people. The State helped him to become a billionaire, and now in their time of need he is busy donating a grinding machine and loaves of bread. Unacceptable!"

Zara

"A former governor and presidential candidate donating a grinding machine and 24 loaves of bread to thousands of flood victims

Obi dey MENT sha"

"I heard Peter Obi went to donate 23 loaves of bread and Indomie packs in Anambra state. Is he contesting for a local government chairman? He even forgot to add dry pepper. How stingy can a person be? It will dawn on you when all you donations enter voicemail. Happy Sunday

Ada Anambra "@PeterObi

You spend wisely in Anambra with relief materials less than a million naira but went to Benue and donated 5million...? My brother, what is the name of your problem?"

Bashir Ahmad

@BashirAhmaad

"Wow. Four bags of rice, 14 cartons of indomie noodles, around 50 set of blankets, 24 loaves of bread, a generator among other unverified stuff donated to thousands of families affected by floods in Anambra by a former governor of the state and a current presidential candidate."

What are your thoughts on this hot topic that is now sparking heated disputes online?

He doesn't receive pension from the state like others, he didnt steal one naira

He is giving from the proceed of his business, a very sincere man.

Anyway! His supporters that brought those goods to support him, he said it this morning that he presented a cheque to them

Godbless Peter Obi

Peter Obi said this morning that, he did not give out food items. He only gave money! It was other people that brought those items to support his vision. He said it while speaking Arise Tv’s morning show this morning!

This is what a leader does, he spurs people to do the right thing!

ireporteronline.com.ng is a clandestine BAT blog. It does all the dirty job for the BAT campaign that TVC and the Nation cannot do.

Having said, We saw PO in Arise interview saying that the information was wrong. He only donated money.

It would do us good to stop peddling falsehood.

Pnder this;
When Buhari heard about the flood, he directed NEMA to see to it and zoomed off to Korea. BAT doles out N100m from his bottomless money pot to Kano and continue with stakeholders/campaign meeting junketing from Abuja to kano.

However, Obi suspended his campaign and went physically to affected areas to empathise with the victims.

In my place, good deeds is better than silver and Gold. A friend that visited and commiserated with you in your hour of need is a friend indeed.

Please ask BAT to show empathy as a Leader. He can start by visiting folks in Maroko and his cherished second home in Kano and Jigawa instead of throwing wards to the hungry and traumatised Nigerians.

Avoiding visiting people at the time of their need only confirms that BAT is indeed serious about continuing PMB legacy of aloofness which the country does not need at this time.

APC propaganda news.

LP has come out to clarify that it wasn't donated by PO but supporters of PO

I hope moderators close this thread for false information.

What did Tinubu do for his home town Iragbiji? He abandoned them to erosions and terrible lack of development.

Monkey say e smart na because tree near each other. Naim be Tinubu so.

That wasn't Peter Obi donation, that was Obidient movement donation.

Propaganda is just helping make Peter Obi popular.

Ireporter is a nonsense media powered by agbado urchins.
They setup that website to produce fake news against Peter Obi.




FACT is that Tinubu is very greedy.


Here is what Peter Obi gets as pension

He said, “Since I left office eight years ago, I have never received any pension.
Anambra State has never bought me any pure water because governors should not have any retirement package.

“You came to serve and when you finish, you should go home. God has blessed you enough. Whatever power God has given you, it’s by grace. Don’t abuse the grace of God. We must stop abusing God’s grace in this country and use public funds to serve the people.”


https://www.vanguardngr.com/2022/07/ive-never-received-any-pension-since-i-left-office-8-years-ago-peter-obi/



Here is what Bola Tinubu has been getting as pension benefits

The Lagos State Governor and Deputy Governor Pensions Law of 2007, provides that’ “the former governor is entitled to six new cars every three years and a house in Lagos and another in Abuja.

“Conservatively, a house in Lagos will cost N750 million and one in Abuja N1 billion. The former governor and family (spouse and children ─ both married and unmarried) are entitled to free medical which is not capped.


“Another highlight is that the ex-governor is entitled to a cook, steward, gardener, and other domestic staff, who are pensionable.

“Other benefits are the annual basic salary: 100 per cent of annual basic salaries of the incumbent governor and deputy.


“Transport: Three cars, two back-up cars and one pilot car for the ex- governor every three years; two cars,
two back-up cars and one pilot car for the deputy, every three years.

“They are also entitled to 300 per cent of annual basic salary every two years.

https://dailypost.ng/2020/11/10/lagos-breakdown-of-ex-governors-pension-as-signed-by-tinubu/


https://www.premiumtimesng.com/regional/ssouth-west/477820-lagos-assembly-slashes-pension-for-tinubu-fashola-other-ex-governors-by-50.html

Let's calculate how much Tinubu has taken since he left office. 2007-2019 shall be our limit.

1. 6 new cars every 3 years means Tinubu has received 24 brand-new cars. If the average cost of a car is 30 million naira, that means Tinubu has received at least 720 million naira for cars.


2. 1 house in Abuja and Lagos each: Conservatively, a house in Lagos will cost N750 million and one in Abuja N1 billion.


3. 300 percent of annual basic salary (N23.3million) every 2 years. That means Tinubu has received 23 million * 6 = 138 million naira.


4. Note that medical expenses of Tinubu, his wife and their children are being taken care by Lagos state government. All those medical trips abroad are paid by Lagos state government. And there is no limit to the expenses.

My friend shut up you are a baggar, what do you mean by he did not steal, must you steal before giving out to humanity, this guy said he was already a billionaire before becoming a governor, a couple of years back he went to far away Haiti and donated over $200,000 to flood victims, and here he is donating loaves of breads to the very people he helps to condemn to abject poverty when they needed him most, and you are out there spooning rubbish
