You mean he will go to Agulu and get the reserve his ancestor kept there Abi?

When Tinubu took over, we had barely $3billion actual cash in our foreign reserve. The Buhari government sold all our current crude oil production on future contract so where exactly do you intend to build dollar reserve from in 6 months?

i wouldnt bother to argue with such people....

Of course nobody can see tomorrow, but we can all make logical conclusions from past events. There is nothing that can predict the character of a man like his reputation, a fighter will remain a fighter, a crook will always steal, or shield his stealing cronies. A compassionate man will never change, a wicked person cannot do anything without adding a touch of wickedness.

We have reasons to believe, after seeing the excellent performance of Peter Obi in his business and academic life, his philanthropic and wealth creation deeds, and his exceptional performance as administrator over a difficult state like Anambra, that he is more than capable to tackle, and surmount the hydra headed problems of Nigeria.

For one, Peter Obi is a very stubborn individual, so fearless that all of us are the ones being afraid for him. He can take on any issue and give it a tough fight, he is not the type of man any person can dominate, or stop him from doing something, especially if the things he wants to do will benefit everyone. His VP candidate, Yusuf Baba Datti Ahmed is also a very excellent performer, we trusted that the 2 of them will change the bad story of Nigeria. The confidence levels of Peter Obi is out of this world, he can face all problems with the strength and certainly of a bull.

We saw him demolish the cabal in Anambra state, wrestled power from them and handed it over to the people of the state, strengthening all the government institutions.

I know that many people from all tribes voted for Peter Obi, and that the poor performance of the people who took over power is making them angry, but let everyone keep hope alive, because evil cannot last forever. Even as Peter Obi is not president, we know what he can do, and we are comforted that we were right about the APC team and their inefficiencies. That's why we are resolute, and the pain is not too much.

Third class philosophy graduate plus a religious bigot is what Peter Obi is and he's not fit to lead Nigeria. Perhaps he can be elected as president of Biafra.

The solution is to divide Nigeria and let each region vote their tribal person as president.

Peter Obi would have failed woefully as president cos he'll just be a puppet answering yes daddy to every nincompoop.

The part in bold is according to which authority?

Immediate Floating of the Naira was not an option when Tinubu took over. It was the only sensible thing to do. We barely had over $3billion actual cash in reserve with huge forex debt to pay. At the same time, crooked officials led by no other person than the CBN governor have over N20trillion they artificially created in their pockets and kept converting to dollars at every given opportunity at the official rate. So, what magic or confidence can you build in 6 months to take care of such a situation?

At times I start to wonder where the man gets his strength, he was like this as governor of Anambra, he was everywhere everytime, stretching to solve problems at the base. He gave succour and comfort to as many people as he came across, he visited people at their houses, rich or poor. He bought things in the market, noted prices himself, walked in mud, if his people are walking in it.

He felt what the people felt.
Re: If Peter Obi Was Sworn In, What Would Have Changed? by TheBillyonaire: 4:03pm On Feb 11
Pete Obi preached 'Moving the country from Consumption to Production', but Tinubu wants us to consume but no effort is dedicated to production.

Do you think it is possible to have a stable economy when your citizens have to import everything? Why are we not producing? ELECTRICITY.

Fix Electricity first, its the basic. and make it cheap for manufacturers. In Nigeria we are punishing manufacturers. No liight. So it is best to use the liquidity to trade fx and be rich while producing nothing and hiring no one. People are stacking billions in rooms and bunkers all over the country. I repeat, people are stacking billions at homes in different currencies.

The shithole called Anambra is a pointer. Nothing else to add. You clowns can keep posting whatever makes you sleep well at night. Peter Obi will never become the president of Nigeria.
if you have been to anambara you dare not call it a shithole. Anambara is home to most of the successful people of the Igbo extraction and anambara is one of the most built up state in the south east but anyway everything is propaganda for the emilocan bandits

Of course, there is no way a Peter Obi will be president and allow rice to climb to #70k. Its impossible.

The only way Obi could have prevented rice from going that high is to pay a subsidy on rice...which would have drained our income and led us into more debt.

Or opened the borders, which would have led to our markets being swamped with imported rice, which would drain our dollars. DId I mention it would have broken the back of our indigenous rice farmers on top of the insecurity and other stuff they face.

LMFAO. Obi that is an importer extraordinaire? Importer in chief will move Nigeria from Consumption to production. A lot of you lack depth and critical thinking skills. Critical thinking class must be a requirement before graduating Secondary and University. If Nigeria implement that, a lot of issues will be solved.

OBI through importing unhealthy trash into Nigeria is one of the reasons why we are not producing

All this you say about Nigeria is the same hype that has been used to brainwash the people who exist in this geographical mistake of a country.

Nigeria will never make progress as long as you have the three ethnic groups jostling for who will rule the country.

Nigeria needs to disintegrate so that each of the major tribe can excel and truly be patriotic to their country.

No politician alive today in Nigeria is patriotic to Nigeria. That is why when they enter office the first thing they do is surround themselves with their clansmen.

Don't be deceived. Nigeria is a cursed country used to hold down the black race.

Homogeneous societies in Africa are doing well but heterogeneous societies in Africa are experiencing the worst form of hardship and evil.

And here you are hyping Nigeria as the next thing after sliced bread. Nigeria is cursed and a curse to Africa

Enjoy Your Regrets

In leadership, the number one source of authority is legitimacy, and the first ingredient of legitimacy is integrity.

Read that again.

A leader without authority is a clown in office.

A leader without legitimacy that is product of integrity cannot exercise authority.

Civilized societies in the world understand this simple yet fundamental principle of leadership.

That is why they will scrutinize to the smallest details anyone who aspire to lead.

That is why anyone in leadership position discovered to have integrity deficit will have to go.

They understand that a leader without integrity is liability to society.

They understand this basic principle of leadership.

But not in Nigeria.

Never!

You that is reading this, there's something you will put on the internet about the president or his deputy, about the security agency, or about the intelligence agencies, they will smoke you out in less than 24 hours.

Wherever you are located within the territory of Nigeria, trust me, they will fish you out in less than 24 hours.

They have the resources and what it takes.

But, kidnappers and other criminal elements are running around free, unhindered in the perpetration of their enterprise.

Citizens are at the mercy of criminals.

If the president summons those in charge of security and intelligence agencies and gives them the marching orders to fish out the criminals in two weeks or lose their jobs, something will change.

But, listen up, he won't do that.

He dare not do that.

He won't because he can't.

He can't because he dare not.

You know why?

Legitimacy issues.

A leader without legitimacy because of integrity deficit cannot issue ultimatum.

How?

To who?

When you rob your way to power, you have legitimate issues.

There are those who have a dossier on you, those who have information of your shenanigans.

There are things you dare not attempt.

This is where I have issues with the idiots who rejoiced as the road that leads to the highest office in the land was blatantly desecrated, because their preferred candidate was "winning."

They were too myopic and stupid to understand that everyone is a loser when a man robs his way to power.

Completely unable to see the larger picture.

There's a video on the internet of a woman addressing the governor of Ekiti state when he visited communities overran by bandits.

The woman told the governor who is on the platform of APC:

"Your Excellency, we are endangered... they kill us like fowls... this was where the man sat (pointing at a spot) and was instructing everyone to vote APC (the man she was referring to was one of the traditional rulers abducted and murdered in Ekiti state by yet to be apprehended criminals)... Your Excellency, since they abduct and kill our leaders, what is the fate of we ordinary people..."

From the woman's lamentations, one of the traditional rulers abducted and murdered desecrated his throne by conducting himself as agent of APC.

APC is ruling at the federal level and in his state, yet he was abducted and murdered. His killers are still running around free.

Those who should protect the traditional rulers and citizens have integrity issues, there are instructions they cannot give.

If you are among the morons who rejoiced as the road to the highest office in the land was desecrated because it favoured your candidate, keep your frustrations to yourself.

You or your loved ones are not safe from the calamity that has engulfed the land.

But, do us one favour...

Enjoy your regrets quietly.
