omenka: Ladies and gentlemen, behold the depths of the mental strength of the NDC Presidential Candidate, Gringori Obi. Can we get a round of applause please! 👏👏
Obi is very correct in this instance- you don't owe money on a loan that you have not drawn down.
The question for Soludo is to confirm how much Obi drew down from the approved loans and whether it corresponds to the debt amount allegedly left behind in 2014,
adenigga: “Peter Obi and Kwankwaso will win this election if it is free, fair, and credible unless there is someone with a machinery willing to take it away from them,” he said.
Kwankwaso is not interested in next year's election, just as Obi is a packaged fraud for identity politics by his fans. The Aso Rock master strategist has told him to have renewed hope for 2031, in case he fails to get a 3rd term like Obasanjo failed in 2007.
Kwankwaso is the new Utomi. QED!!!

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.
Thiefobi1: Everything a man sow, he shall definitely reap.
When will Tinubu and his A-looter Propaganda Conmen, APC reap the destruction they sowed in Nigeria?
Did the master strategist not go to Kaduna to beg Buhari out of retirement to make Jonathan a one term president in 2015, after they invited terrorists from his Guinea home country?
anonimi: What group of politicians is more wicked than A-looter Propaganda Conmen, APC
EponObi: Yeah, they couldn't make anything stick on him. They couldn't make anything glue on him too.
If Tinubu can prove his case against him, then why has he not been convicted like the Oyo kidnappers that were convicted in just two weeks after they were arrested?
What is Tinubu scared of
iwaeda: Oyo State Governor, Seyi Makinde, on Friday said the abduction of pupils and teachers from Oriire Local Government Area occurred just hours after he declared his intention to contest the 2027 presidential election.
Makinde made the remark while addressing a meeting with Bauchi State Governor Bala Mohammed and leaders of the Allied Peoples Movement in Bauchi, recalling that Oyo had not recorded a similar incident during his seven years in office before the May 15 attack.
“For seven years, we didn’t witness anything like this in Oyo State. I declared to run for the presidency of Nigeria at four o’clock, and by 9 a.m. the following morning, the children were abducted,” Makinde said.
Hours after Makinde’s remarks in Bauchi, the Presidency announced that all the victims had been rescued after spending 56 days in captivity.
The Presidency said the victims were freed during a joint operation involving the military, the Department of State Services and the police, with eight suspected kidnappers arrested and others neutralised.

Mrexcell: I honestly don't even know what happened to kanu is he not the same philanthropist that founded a heart foundation in nigeria were children whose poor parents can't afford a heart surgery were operated for free?
The Foundation was probably more hype than substance, as it is with most of our Foundations.
Is Britain also filled with jobless, extreme poverty paupers who have to hustle for private school fees because Okpebholo and his fellow progreThieves steal money that should employ teachers for the free education of all children despite Obasanjo/ Atiku PDP administration establishing UBEC over a quarter century ago to provide matching federal funds to help states achieve nine years free and compulsory education for all children?
Do Britons drink water from shitty boreholes also?
Bwala was right about what happens to the medulla oblongata once people join A-looter Propaganda Conmen, APC.
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.’
How can Kanu be this cruel and evil despite his own exposure to global football in the developed world
I fail to understand.
Damning reports have emerged regarding Enyimba FC, led by Kanu Nwankwo, as a player reportedly injured during training has been asked to cover the cost of his surgery.
Enyimba FC, in the two years under Kanu Nwankwo, has appeared to become an unrecognisable version of the club

If Eyinmba does not change its management and/or technical team, it's very likely they will be relegated just like my home team of Shooting Stars in 2006, 2013 and in 2017.
The last time we spent four years in NNL before working our way back up to NPFL.
As long as the unity government post Tinubu is led by the architect of PDP deregulation and privatisation policies that gave us 16 years of prosperity, peace and security with cheap petrol and less debt burden, then it is fine.
anonimi: "Tinubu made living in Nigeria expensive. I will make Nigeria affordable again" - Alhaji Atiku Abubakar
Katell: The macro-economic indices are fantastic but economy policies supposed to be balanced between macro and micro economics. The macro open up the economy for more investment participation. Here is where those with rich pocket get richer when they invest appropriately and strategically. The micro is a safety net to the masses because they are policies that studies the economic decisions of individuals, households and businesses, including prices, wages, production and market competition. Where macro is favoured over micro, there is bound to be poverty-stricken populace. This is the current economic reality of Nigeria
No doubt this government has done excellently well in term of macro economics but extremely poor with its micro economics. If only they can balance the two, the result would have been amazing because the masses will feel the impact positively.
This is where the current administration show focus its attention to.

He added that with the increased revenue from subsidy removal, various palliatives have been made available to cushion its effect on a short, medium and long-term basis.
Ofunaofu: Report: Current Govt Added More Debt in Two Years Than Nigeria Accumulated in 55 Years
• Decries Nigeria’s debt service-to-revenue ratio
•Urges FG to declare fiscal emergency
A new policy brief has warned that Nigeria’s worsening debt profile and weak revenue generation have pushed the country into a dangerous fiscal position, with the current administration accumulating more debt in two years than Nigeria recorded during its first 55 years after independence.
The report, released by the Alliance for Economic Research and Ethics LTD/GTE, a Nigerian policy think tank, argued that the country’s debt crisis has evolved into a governance and revenue emergency, as debt servicing obligations now exceed the federal government’s retained earnings. > > According to the think tank, Nigeria’s public debt rose sharply from N87.38 trillion in June 2023 to N159.28 trillion by the end of 2025, with President Bola Tinubu’s administration accounting for about N65.9 trillion of the increase within its first two years in office.
The organisation in the brief titled: “Nigeria Is Borrowing to Breathe—and the Clock Is Ticking”, noted that Nigeria accumulated only about N12.06 trillion in debt from independence in 1960 up to 2015, meaning the current administration added more than five times that amount in just 24 months.
The report stated that while previous governments also contributed significantly to the country’s rising debt burden, the speed of accumulation under the current administration had intensified concerns over fiscal sustainability.
“President Bola Tinubu’s administration has added a further N65.9 trillion in just two years. To put that in perspective: it took Nigeria’s first 55 years of independence to accumulate N12 trillion in debt. The current administration has added more than five times that amount in 24 months,” it argued.
It recalled that Nigeria briefly became almost debt-free externally after the administration of former President Olusegun Obasanjo secured an $18 billion Paris Club debt relief package in 2005 and paid $12 billion to extinguish about $30 billion in external obligations.
WizardOfNG: Lol. Never. What is best for Nigeria and Nigerians is not their business. They are seeking something else.
Was it best for Nigeria and Nigerians that A-looter Propaganda Conmen, APC invited terrorists to destroy our country before Tinubu begged Buhari out of retirement to make Jonathan a one term president in 2015
Reference: Just reading the first line. Totally agree. Personal development is the key to true independence and respect. Power has always and will always be the ticket to a seat at the table.
This is more about community/country/continental/collective development than just self-centred personal development. One rich person surrounded by extreme poverty, jobless paupers is just a PART of the extreme poverty community.

Instead of blaming others for our enduring underdevelopment, we need to get our act together and work out our collective prosperity and wellbeing to employ well paid government workers to make basic services and utilities available for everyone, Basic services and utilities like water supply, sanitation, free education for all children and free basic healthcare for all residents.
TheBedWench: The one-drop rule is a social and legal principle of racial classification that was historically prominent in the United States in the 20th century. It asserted that any person with even one ancestor of black ancestry ("one drop" of black blood) is considered black (Negro or colored in historical terms).
This concept became codified into the law of some states in the early 20th century. It was associated with the principle of "invisible blackness" that developed after the long history of racial interaction in the South, which had included the hardening of slavery as a racial caste and later segregation. It is an example of hypodescent, the automatic assignment of children of a mixed union between different socioeconomic or ethnic groups to the group with the lower status, regardless of proportion of ancestry in different groups.[3]
The one-drop rule is defunct in law in the United States and was never codified into federal law.

anonimi: How Indorama sustains manufacturers, boosts Nigeria’s FX earnings
Indorama Eleme Petrochemicals Limited (IEPL) has emerged as a major value creator in the Nigerian economy. It is responsible for the survival, growth and sustenance of many manufacturing companies in Nigeria today. A large number of plastic and allied firms depend on the Eleme-based company for petrochemical resins (or polymer resins) which serve as their raw materials.
The petrochemical company is just one of the several subsidiaries of Indorama-Nigeria Group, which also comprises Indorama Eleme Fertilizer & Chemicals Limited (IEFCL), Indorama PET Nigeria Limited, and Indorama Port Operations.
Since Indorama Corporation of Indonesia became core investor in the old Eleme Petrochemicals Company Limited (EPCL) in 2006 through privatisation programme of the Federal Government, the group has become a game changer in the Nigerian economy.
The petrochemical company has solved the major challenge facing a number of manufacturers— poor access to raw materials. Rather than scramble for foreign exchange to import inputs, the company ensures that manufacturers have access to their critical raw materials, enabling them to save costs and improve margins.
The major resins used by plastic and allied companies are polyethylene and polypropylene. Indorama produces about 45 grades of these products for various industries. About 600 of such companies in Nigeria depend on IEPL for their survival. They are estimated to have over 90,000 workers.
Validated: Atiku should respect the unwritten Nigeria zoning formula and support Peter Obi to oust Tinubu, a monumental failure. We need frugal presidency to pull Nigeria out of the doldrums that Buhari and Tinubu carelessly dragged us into. Nigeria is now a laughing stock in the commity of nations. Our president cannot attend UNGA because of the fear of being arrested for heroine offenses.
What tribalistic UNWRITTEN zoning formula are you talking about when the south would have been president for 17 years and the north only for 11 years by next year?
What is frugal about this fraudulent scammer?
Do you actually want our country to be better, or you just want your own person as president?
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.
aduboy: Anambra distributes 177 vehicles to traditional rulers
Governor Peter Obi of Anambra State, on Monday in Awka, distributed one SUV each to the traditional rulers of the 177 communities in the state.
Obi handed over one of the vehicles’ key to the state Chairman of the Traditional Rulers’ Council, Igwe Alfred Achebe, Obi of Onitsha.
He said that the gesture was aimed at helping them run and build better communities, adding that the vehicles would also help the traditional rulers to function effectively.
“If you have better communities, you will have a better Anambra, Anambra today is changing for better and I want this sustained,” the governor said.
“In doing that, the state government and the local government will do what it can to support the building of a better Anambra.”
Achebe said that he was overjoyed because the governor cared about the well-being and welfare of the traditional rulers.
“It is completely unprecedented in Anambra and probably elsewhere in Nigeria,” he said.
“It is a mighty gesture from the governor and for the government of the state to make a distinct impact on the well-being of the traditional rulers in the state.”
According to him, it was one of the several measures the present administration in the state had taken to improve the wellbeing of the traditional rulers.
“We pray that God will give us a successor that will continue from where Obi has left and lift Anambra to the next level.”

TopBanter: Well-said. Obi is nothing but a desperate Igbo Presidency project. Inpsect him critically for political leadership capacity and you will find he is empty. Drove past Eko Atlantic two days ago and was shaking my head in awe at what Tinubu has pulled off with Orca mall at the front which is arguably the biggest supermarket and lifestyle mall in Africa. This is one of too many spectacular legacy projects ,to include LFTZ etal,PBAT delivered. Obi has none and is about talking loquaciously and emptily up and down. No practical adult that means well for Nigeria will ever consider Obi in place of PBAT.
Biggest mall in a country that Tinubu and APC have dragged down to 4th place from the top position we were under PDP deregulation and privatisation policies?
Biggest mall in glorified ghetto Lagos, where people are drinking water from shitty boreholes despite 100 times growth in state budget to N4.2 trillion in 27 years?
How is this mall relevant in a state where less than 5% of schools are owned by government run by progressive politicians since 1999?

Racoon: Festus Keyamo Defends Tinubu From Drug Trafficking, Says Tinubu Mistakenly Shared Flats With Drug Lords
The Minister of State for Labour and Employment, Mr Festus Keyamo, has distanced the All Progressive Congress presidential candidata, Bola Tinubu, from being a drug baron who was involved in the traffic of narcotics in the United States.
Keyamo, who also doubles as APC Presidential Campaign spokesperson, noted that the former governor of Lagos State only shared a block of flat with drug barons about 30 years ago in the US.
His reaction is coming following documents of a Chicago District Court indicting and convicting Tinubu of drug dealings and money laundering in 1993.
The document which emerged online two days ago, described APC standard-bearer as a drug baron, adding that Tinubu entered a plea bargain, leading to the forfeiture of his assets to US authorities in 1993
It was also pointed out that Tinubu forfeited the sum of $460, 000 dollars in his bank account at First Heritage Bank to the US government.
Speaking on Wednesday on Channels TV, Mr Keyamo dismissed such claims, insisting that Tinubu was linked to drug peddlers who were his neighbours.
He said: “What happened was that Tinubu went to open an account. The address which he used in opening the account was the address used by these people. I think some blocks of flats. Maybe, he was happy to be in that block of flats too.
“So, they now link it that the other people they were investigating for narcotics are in the same address used by Asiwaju to open that account.’’
HacheNoire: They have Venezuelared us! Ask for the terms of the agreement and you will be labeled a terrorist. The moment they started accusing the government of Christian genocide, I knew they were after something! When US brings accusations, they want something!
Of course, it’s how America under Trump operates, and the Tinubu couple are ready to sell us out for cheap.
US bill targets illegal Chinese mining operations in Nigeria for ‘funding Fulani militias’
February 12, 2026
A fresh bill at the United States house of representatives has proposed that the country’s secretary of state works with the Nigerian government to thwart “hostile foreign exploitation of Chinese illegal mining operations”.
The proposed legislation, titled: ‘Nigeria Religious Freedom and Accountability Act of 2026’, was introduced by five Republican lawmakers on Tuesday.
seunmsg: For those who are interested in the truth beyond propaganda, this video explains everything from the initial arrest of Lee Edwards in 1988 to the conclusion of the case without any criminal charge in 1993. Tinubu was never involved in any narcotics sales or trafficking. Akande, a family member just like Abibatu Mogaji and Kola Tinubu all kept money with Tinubu. The US seized all the funds in a forfeiture case and after proper investigation, they released over $1million that belongs to Bola Tinubu, Kola Tinubu and Abibatu Mogaji while $460,000 that belongs to Akande was forfeited. The US even asked the Tinubu family to agree with the dismissal of the case with prejudice so that no future case can be filed against the US government.
Can anyone be more interested in the truth about this drug lord than his forever waiting ambassador designate, and his megaphone in Aso Rock?

newsbook: Anambra State governor, Chief Willie Obiano has re-echoed his allegation that his predecessor, Mr Peter Obi demanded the sum of N7.5billion from him for sponsoring his election in 2013.
Obiano and his predecessor, Obi have had a frosty relationship shortly after his swearing in.
Obi has however denied that he demanded for the sum of N7.5billion from Obiano, saying that his problem with him was his (Obiano’s) underperformance.
Obi said if he needed the said sum, he would have simply taken it from the N75billion he left for the Obiano administration at the end of his tenure.
But Governor Obiano while speaking on Wednesday evening at Ezechima Primary School, Onitsha where he inaugurated his reelection campaigns in Onitsha North Council Area, said the clarification became necessary because of the recent accusations against him by the former Governor.
He stated that his predecessor had demanded the sum of N7.5billion from him as funds spent in prosecuting the election on his behalf, but that he refused to pay the money because it was not true.
Obiano said he refused to pay because he strongly believed that public funds should be used for public good, and not to settle godfathers.
These, he said, was the reason they fell apart.
The governor said that another reason he refused to pay the money was because he was aware that enough money was raised for his campaign by his friends and associates, all of which were never accounted for by the former governor.
On the actual sum the former Governor claimed he left behind, Governor Obiano made it clear that he inherited liability of about N127 billion debt from him in contracts awarded and other responsibilities, which he has been religiously undertaking in the spirit of continuity.
He said Obi flagged off several roads even on the day he was leaving office and saddled him with the burden of paying for it, but he assured the people that he has his eyes on the ball and will not allow anything to distract him from fulfilling his promises.
The Chairman of the Governor’s Re-election Campaign Committee, Chief Victor Umeh said APGA as the political spirit of Ndigbo, has in the past three and half years, availed Anambra good governance at its best, reminding the people that the upcoming guber election was not about Willie Obiano but about ensuring that the state remained free from political godfatherism.
A former Central Bank Governor, Professor Chukwuma Soludo in his speech said that at this time, the State needs a tested hand like Governor Obiano who has the experience and expertise to effectively steer her affairs.

5 mind-boggling revelations from Obasanjo’s ‘My Watch’
5. Tinubu was one of the most corrupt, of the 36 governors
Obasanjo never got along too well with former Lagos state governor, Bola Tinubu, and unsurprisingly, Tinubu got a mention in the former’s book.
Obasanjo revealed that then EFCC boss, Nuhu Ribadu tried to investigate almost all the state governors during his tenure but that of the 28 confirmed to be manifestly corrupt or tainted one way or the other, Tinubu’s case was one of the worst.
Lagos — ABIA State governor, Dr. Orji Uzor Kalu and his Lagos State counterpart, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu would not escape justice but would be made to face the full wrath of the law following their recent indictment for alleged corruption by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).
Chairman of the commission Mallam Nuhu Ribadu who made the vow yesterday said the duo must account for their stewardship and may be thrown out of office.
