kingthreat: The man is the foolish one here. Spending only 50k on himself.
How is he different from tribalistic Nigerians who spend so little on ourselves while politicians steal our taxes and the revenue received on our behalf, instead of employing well paid civil servants to make education free for all children, and water supply available to all households?
500 gallons of water go for N20k. Multiply by 4 in a month, that's N80k. By extrapolation, that's N960k in a year on water alone. Why? Because the governor believes that clean and accessible water is the least of his worries. Yet they prance around like Enugu is Abuja even though the red muddy soil will have residents looking like they went tomb-raiding at night.
But then, considering where it was before Peter Mba, one can understand the accolades being that he moved the town from 16th Century to 17th Century but not anywhere near 20th Century. 21st Century is a stretch. EEDC? The worst of all.
The Permanent Secretary, Office of Drainage Services and Water Resources in Lagos State, Mahmood Adegbite, has said that people drilling borehole in the Lekki axis of the state is probably drinking ‘’shit water.”
While speaking at a stakeholders meeting in the state recently, Adegbite noted that contaminated boreholes in Lekki pose health risk and added that treatment of waste water would eradicate any form of disease that may arise from it.
He said, “On waste water treatment, I will say that everyone digging borehole within the Lekki axis is probably drinking what I will call ‘shit water.’
SnoppyG: can't he just stop mentioning Obi Obi, this means Obi is a force in today's politics.
Indeed Obi is a force for attracting 100% SE votes to benefit Tinubu.
This is why Kwankwaso is the new Utomi, as the Kano politician eyes 2031 to succeed Tinubu in case the master strategist fails to get a 3rd term for life president, in the same way that Obasanjo failed to get it in 2007.
lexylaw40: The “president-elect” saw in Obi's presidential bid, a good chance to reduce the winning chances of the presidential candidate of the PDP, Atiku Abubakar.
The governorship candidate of the Labour Party (LP) in Oyo State, Tawfiq Akinwale, [/b]on Wednesday [b]stated that the “President-elect” Bola Tinubu asked popular economist, Prof Pat Utomi to step down for Peter Obi in the buildup to the 2023 general elections.
Akinwale made this revelation while he appeared as a guest on a radio programme on 101.7 YES FM, Ibadan, Oyo State, while alleging that Obi received campaign funds from Utomi, whom he described as Tinubu's "son."
The LP aspirant, who spoke in Yoruba language, said "In the buildup to the 2023 elections, Obi who had purchased the nomination form of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), suddenly announced his exit from the party.
"Initially, Pat Utomi had secured the LP's presidential ticket, but when Peter Obi said he resigned from the PDP and joined the LP. Bola Tinubu, a master political strategist, quickly told Utomi, that everyone knows to be his son to step down for Obi.
"The “president-elect” saw in Obi's presidential bid, a good chance to reduce the winning chances of the presidential candidate of the PDP, Atiku Abubakar.
"What Peter Obi didn't know is much more that what he knows, he started collecting campaign funds from Utomi, while Tinubu was giving the money to Utomi.
"This went on until Obi's presidential campaign got to a stage it went beyond target. Obi was used without him knowing," Akinwale said after announcing his departure from the party.
Obi defected to the LP after resigning his membership of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and also withdrawing from the presidential race under the party.
The former governor consequently joined the race for the party’s presidential ticket, while Professor Pat Utomi, in June 2022 stepped down for him to emerge as the presidential candidate of the Labour Party, LP, unopposed in Asaba, Delta State.
numericalguy: Obi is like a side attraction or clown that is used to joke and make people laugh during election because he is not even in the presidential race.
The presidential race is between Tinubu and Atiku while Obi will provide the comic relief
A numerical guy should know that obi is not doing comic relief but rather a tool for helping Tinubu continue his turn to worsen APC extreme poverty shege.
jameshankss: Arguing that Obi’s presidential bid would only work in favour of Tinubu, Soludo said, “Indeed, if I were Asiwaju Tinubu, I would even give Peter Obi money as someone heading one of the departments of his campaign, because Obi is making Tinubu’s pathway to victory much easier by indirectly pulling down PDP.”
Obi, according to Soludo, would only deplete the votes of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and pave the path for an APC victory.
He stated, “The current fleeting frenzy, if not checked, will cost Ndigbo dearly for years. The South-east has the lowest number of votes of any region, but it is also the only region where the presidential race might be a four-way race (it is a two-way race in the other five regions) thereby, ensuring that our votes won’t count in the making of the next president of Nigeria.
Obi is the nightmares of good governance, being a hypocrite like Tinubu.
bennybuhari: “’I cannot take anything back about Obi. I said Obi said he wants to move Nigeria back from consumption to production and I said that is not true. He cannot do it because his own business survives on consumption. Is that a lie? He has been an importer and I said he deals with cash and carry economics; container economics, imports”.
“All the goods that can be produced in Nigeria, Obi imports them in his supermarkets. That is consumption economics. That kind of person cannot tell you that he is moving you from consumption to production. He will then be committing self-economic suicide and Obi will not do that to himself”.
“So, Obi is deceiving everybody and I can’t take that back because that is true.
michelz: Those emergency lovers of Nigeria will soon invade this thread and start spewing mucous all over it after consistently voting in the wrong people. They will automatically excuse the Chicago miscreant and heap blames on Obi who's only trying to do his bit in his capacity.
In his capacity as a politician who says what he does not mean
bennybuhari: “’I cannot take anything back about Obi. I said Obi said he wants to move Nigeria back from consumption to production and I said that is not true.

Ofunaofu: He is already taking action and carrying himself presidentially.
Nigeria truly missed it in 2023. By now, nobody would be talking about Tinubu’s mandate of hardship and death that has engulfed the entire country in barely two years of his regime.
We dodged a bullet indeed.
NLCreator: Peter Obi, presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP) in the 2023 elections, has defended the purchase of sports utility vehicles (SUVs) for members of the national assembly.
There have been reports that the leadership of the 10th national assembly has bought SUVs for all lawmakers.
Each SUV is said to be valued at N160 million.
The LP had asked members of the party in the national assembly to kick against “wastage”.
While responding to questions during a press conference in Abuja on Monday, the former governor of Anambra said the SUVs are not personal cars of the lawmakers, noting that they are for official use.
“Let me start with the issue of Labour Party members in the house. I have actually discussed this issue with them,” Obi said.
“Surprisingly, I can tell you I heard that these vehicles are official cars. They have to use it. It is meant for office.
“So it is not as if it is their vehicle. They said it is official cars and you are meant to use it while you are in the senate.”
Obi also hinted at contesting for the country’s number one position in 2027, adding that Nigeria deserves dedicated and visionary leaders who will lead the country towards a brighter future.
victoryenergy: am not a fan of TINUBU, but you see the way he is dealing with el rufai, is a welcome idea, this is how to deal with those who are sympathetic to terrorist.
There is no one who is more sympathetic to terrorists than Tinubu. Nobody is.
By the way, do you also love the way he is dealing with Kanu, who is seen as a freedom fighter in the SE

‘Tactical Ransom or Negotiation?’ Nigerians Question Tinubu, FG as Kebbi, Kwara Terrorists Go Scot-Free
Since the Nigerian government confirmed that the abducted 38 worshippers in Kwara State and the 24 Kebbi schoolgirls had been freed, many Nigerians have been awaiting updates about the arrest or killing of their abductors.
The silence of the federal and state governments on consequences for the perpetrators has led many to believe that the government likely negotiated with the terrorists and paid ransom to have the abductees released.
FIJ called the spokespersons of the Nigerian Army (NA) and the Nigeria Police Force (NPF) on Wednesday morning, but neither provided answers to questions about the abductors.
Shortly after Kebbi Governor Nasir Idris and Bello Matawalle, Minister of Defence, announced on Tuesday that the 24 students had been freed, the terrorists who abducted the girls released a video, saying the government negotiated with them for the girls’ release.
dragunov: So assuming he did all that in Chatham house, is that enough for Tinubu to cover him when he went on national TV to blab about his crimes? What is wrong with you people?
What is wrong with you people
Why do you want to cover up something you didn’t see?
SadiqBabaSani: Elrufai should manage like Yakubu, Southern Kaduna graves are still crying against him.
He must confess his atrocities against the Nigerian Christian Community
Have the killings stopped in southern Kaduna since 2023?
What does Tinubu know that he has not told you about El Rufai? The man who saved him from his cluelessness in Chatham House, where the master strategist could not answer questions on insecurity.
Why did Tinubu not rely on Ribadu during his session in London? Ṣebi he was part of his campaign team
The Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation has announced that the Port Harcourt and Warri refineries have been successfully re-streamed after a nine-month rehabilitation exercise conducted by its in-house engineers and technicians.
The corporation, in a statement, noted that both plants commenced preliminary production of petroleum products after successful test-runs, adding that while PHRC was ramping up its operation to about 60 per cent of its 210,000 barrels per day capacity, WRPC production was projected to hit 80 per cent of its installed 125,000bpd capacity.
The NNPC said the Port Harcourt refinery was projected to boost the nation’s local refining capacity with a product yield of five million litres of petrol per day, while Warri refinery would contribute 3.5 million litres of petrol.
Providing insight into the rehabilitation exercise, the NNPC noted that it had to adopt the phased rehabilitation strategy after the Original Refinery Builders, who were initially contacted for the project came up with unfavorable terms.
It said, “Though a decision was taken in 2011 to rehabilitate all the refineries using the ORB of each of the refineries, we were impelled to switch strategy after the ORBs declined participation and nominated some partners in their stead who came up with outrageously unfavorable terms.”
The NNPC stated that the nominated partners, as sole-bidders, came up with humongous price offers after two years of thorough and exhaustive scope of work definition and price negotiations.
It added that the proxies were also unwilling to provide post rehabilitation performance guarantees.
The corporation said, “The phased rehabilitation strategy which entailed phased and simultaneous rehabilitation of all the refineries using in-house and locally available resources in line with the spirit and letter of the Nigerian Content Law, also involved the use of Original Equipment Manufacturer representatives to effect major equipment overhaul and rehabilitation.”
The national oil firm said the phased rehabilitation programme, which started in October 2014 after the required funding stream was established, created a 70 per cent reduction in costs which helped largely in mitigating the financing challenges of refinery rehabilitation.
It observed that with the successful re-streaming of the PHRC and WRPC, attention has now moved to the 110,000 barrels per day Kaduna Refining and Petrochemicals Company which was billed to come on stream soon.
saintopus: Dec 06, 2024 The PH Refinery ships its first export of petroleum products to Dubai. The company is expected to load the cargo in the coming days onboard the Wonder Star MR1 ship, signalling the commencement of operations at the plant and the exportation of petroleum products.
The ship will load 15,000 metric tons of the product, which translates to about 13.6 million litres.
Although the volume coming from the NNPC into the global market is still small, the development has the potential to impact the Very Low Sulphur Fuel Oil (VLSFO) benchmarks in the future while changing the market realities for Atlantic Basin exporters into Nigeria and other regions.
The sulfur content of the export by NNPC stands at 0.26 per cent per wt and a 0.918 g/ml density at 15°C, according to Kpler, a data and analysis company.
The cargo was reportedly sold at an $8.50/t discount to the NWE 0.5 per cent benchmark on a Free on Board (FOB) basis.
Kpler reported that the development would help displace imports from traditional suppliers in Africa and Europe, as Nigeria’s falling clean product (CPP) imports are already decreasing, dragging imports into the wider West Africa region lower as well.

obcpascal: Which one you and your Papa don build, A Man did the one he could, you dey compare am, when you haven't done anything for humanity. Hypocrisy...
Why are you screaming about people who are not asking for the job of president, to have access to the treasury, like obi has done since 2019?
This was the year Atiku rescued the homeless politician, five years after Obiano got rid of him in APGA.

saintokwuluora: They were surprised these calibre of men are ready to lead and they liked it. Tinubu is done for.
Just as the master strategist was done for in the last election?
It’s obvious that Kwankwaso is the new Utomi, but the Kano man is hoping to be president in 2031, if Tinubu fails to get a 3rd term for life president, like Obasanjo failed in 2007!
Interestingly, unreliable, untrustworthy, indisciplined, slippery, party-hopping Utomi was ADC’s first presidential candidate in the same 2007!

sweetjohn: Tomorrow now, if Alex Otti come out for president this same APChit nitwits will say what did he do as a governor of Abia for 8years.
How many pictures of the roads built by Otti and other politicians, are you using to pay for your purchases, due to shrinking income from hyperinflation and increasing unemployment?
How many primary, vocational and secondary schools have been renovated and/or completed, with teachers recruited to make education free for all children in the state?
Has this governor employed 19,500 teachers like Makinde did in five years?
How much has he drawn with matching funds, from UBEC that Obasanjo and Atiku established over a quarter century ago, to provide nine years of free and compulsory education for all children?
CapitalBank: Again, Benin people have nothing in common with Yoruba people, not food, not dialect. The people who even share thats similarity with them are in Delta state.
Thank you.
Do you know better than Oba Akiolu, who threatened genocide against Igbo people in 2015?
thesicilian: You should have paid more attention in your history class, if you went to secondary school
How do you expect him to go to secondary school when Tinubu is leading other politicians to deemphasise free education for all children?
Unlike Obasanjo and Atiku who established UBEC to make matching federal funds available to states for nine years of free and compulsory education for all children.
This is a misplaced rejoicing if the local and state governments have not renovated enough primary and secondary schools, as well as employing enough teachers, to make education free for all the children of the market women. Not so
