He is on his own

In the last six months, the likes of Senators Uche Ekwunife and Ike Ekweremadu, Chimaraoke Nnamani, Hon. Emeka Ihedioha, Governors Hope Uzodinma, David Umahi, Pastor Poju Oyemade, Adeyanju Deji , Fr.

But why are bothered? Is he living theirs lives?

Well written.....

After February those from other tribes urging Peter Obi on will retreat to their ethnic enclaves to enjoy the spoils of war while we Igbos will lick our wounds and become an example of " people wey no know politics" by street side political analysts..

The hypocrisy is damn too much


same Obidient crass idiots here will tell you that voting Atiku is a vote for Fulanis but will turn round and demand that in all fairness (whatever that means), it is time for an Igbo presidency and that we should shun ethno religious sentiments and vote their Obi because he is the "best".

You just can't replicate such double speak even in Communist North Korea.

Tinubu is a bandit.

OP,

Your write-up is a therapy, your own therapy. I hope you feel better now that you have taken time to air your emotional burden.

The great thing about the discombobulations from mostly career politicians from the entire country including diatribes from SE power brokers is that Peter Obi now knows the state of mind of his people and realizes that the rest of the other tribes love him more than his own people (if the governors represent their people). I have not seen a single SE Governor supporting Obi. In fact, I see them attacking their own brother and that speaks volume, not of Obi's arrogance, or bad behavior, but because he is what an average Igbo man is not.

Given the self-aggrandizement of Igbos when they have some money, Obi is quite civil.

But those are by the side - of all the Candidates running for the Presidency, with a probabilistic possibility of winning (Atiku, Obi and Tinubu);

Educationally, Obi is the most educated, and the most intelligent.

Global Reach: Obi is the most connected with the global class.

Personal Lifestyle: Obi is a minimalist and humble

Philanthropy: Obi has been visiting people faced with ecological disasters, funding orphanages and schools.

The list is endless, - OP have you seen Obi's Resume and juxtapose it with that of Atiku and Tinubu?

The OBIDIENTS are Nigerians, not mob as you call them, they are actually the most intelligent but are not ready to conform anymore, that is why they attack dissent views and I encourage them to continue to attack these opposition who see nothing wrong in tribalism and nepotism.

If you are not OBIDIENT you stand for nothing. If you respond back to me with personal attacks and fallacies, you will understand what OBIDIENTS are made of.

A group that has since gained notoriety for verbal attacks and intolerance to dissenting opinions.

Notoriety of verbal attack is better than using axe, cutlasses, rifles, etc. as we have seen over the years during electoral sessions from 1999-2019.

Which do you prefer? To be textually attacked on Facebook or attacked physically by Oluomo boys?

Say something else.

Most of the people you are exonerating and protecting from verbal attacks are in possession of AK-47 rifles, ready to gun you down, take off your kidney for peanuts, and rip your head off your neck if and when you dare to truncate their electoral destiny.

Do you now understand the gravity of your ma.dness? Go and look into the history of these politicians, the number of people they have killed directly and indirectly during elections.

Soludo was a former CBN Governor under PDP... he has his roots there

his verbal attacks on Obi at this particular time shouldn't surprise anyone.


Soludo is singing, we know the people beating the drums for him

nothing to see here..

sanusideunifier:
Accord to Soludo's theory the best way to play politics in Nigeria is to be totally tribal like Tinubu so we all sing emi lo kan and follow a walking corpse.
According to Soludo's theory, Obi deserves to die for seeking a platform in Labour Party instead of APGA.
According to Soludo's theory, Igbos must follow a defined political pattern of behavior, behave in a particular way to be president or seen as Nigerians. I now understand the most foolish among Nigerians are those prefixed with unmerited 'Prof' like the overrated fool.
According to Soludo, you must attack Igbo as a region to be taken seriously by the rest of Nigerians. Soludo's anger is that a new Nigeria grows from his brother but not from him and has sworn to pull him down. He can't attack Tinubu or Atiku, no, he must attack Obi to be relevant.

Soludo has it wrong
That is the problem, is that once we let tinubu have his way in this election, it is officially in written in stone in Nigeria that tribal and regional politics is the way to become president. We all have to fight this Evil APC party as truly the soul of this country is being fought for.

But the biggest take away from Soludos Rant is this. Obi has clearly said anyone with Proof of Misappropriation of funds by him should come out and he will stop campaigning...Soludo claims to have privileged information as the current Governor, is willing to come up with smear poverty claims and nothing about stealing. That means Obi after 8 years truly didnt steal anything, means he is one of the most unique politicians in the entire Subsaharan African continent. We have to Fight for this man.

Also know that poverty statistics can rearranged to make the any target actually look poor or rich the Media in the western world are always using these figures as tools to mock or emasculate any entity they so wish to.

There something I never could understand about those who say that Obi, or any Igbo man for that matter, can never be President due to the insulting nature of Igbos

Hmmmmmmmm...........

These same Nigerians are the people who elected and re-elected the current President despite herdsmen from his tribe killing people all across Nigeria

But they want us to believe that insult and online attacks are their problem?

There is no issues raised by Soludu. He said he was going to answer the question about Obi's legacy in government as Anambra governor. He ended up advising the Igbos to leave Obi and choose another candidate.

Who does that except and envious enemy?

Truth is what issue did soludo raise other than his fears that obi can't win ?

What other issues is there ? Obi listed his investments and the submiller shares went from 50 naira to 5 naira ...

But same company employs 10,000 Anambrians , same company gives the state 10% of profits ...

That's of just one of the investments obi made


Point is what exactly did soludo say ..what points did he raise ?

Did he accuse obi of corruption ?
Did he accuse obi of stealing funds ?

But they want us to believe that insult and online attacks are their problem?

don't forget that there is no evidence to prove your allegation. The governors of the south east said that all those criminals arrested are igbos,so why trying to blame fulani?
Atleast the northerners are in the frontline criticizing Buhari. But the igbos don't criticized their leaders, ikpeazu only gave his people 2 liters of kerosene and he was elected 2 times.
Now in the east nobody is allowed to criticize Peter Obi, criticizing Obi in Igbo land is like committing suicide.
