Right from when I was born, my mum have always come first and she will always come first forever before any other person.

So what exactly is the issue here?

You'll pick your mother, and they'll pick theirs; matter never settle?

One day, one day, na double standards go kee all of una.

A woman will forever remain the devil and manipulative masterminder in all instances.

If it was a man caught looking sad and angry on his wedding day, y'all will drop hot takes of how he's being trapped, and he's getting into a communion with a devil's spawn, or whatever. You'll find a way to heap the blames on the Daughter of Eve and yada yada yada he's getting married to.

Now, a woman is caught sad on her wedding day and everyone is still holding her responsible again. She doesn't have sense; she's desperate; she opened her legs; she'll be a frustrated cheat and nag...nice one. No one is talking about a potential Lucifer-in-Charge that she'll be getting married to o.

Men are held to higher standards, my as*.

Nigerian baby politicians and their ego. Amaechi confessed he is scared to enter his State because of Wike.

Does anybody know* this dude outside Nairaland? Concerned families and friends?

Can they collect his phone from him, because it seems like another thing don dey enter like this so o.

E don dey look like skoin skoin wey require hosp*taliz*tion.

biotechshola:
You people quickly assume that everyone is partisan, I'm neutral and I've not even seen the falsehood you're talking about..But his response to such critical question is empty.

Okay. Have you seen it now and agreed it is a doctored video?

Your judgement of it being empty is yours sha.

money121:
But Labour party No dey give shishi

I do not want to think you do not understand the context of that phrase.

Spending money for logistics is different from dashing money to people so they'll like you.

lugado:
Smh. This man actually believes that people do crime because there are no jobs.

There is a correlation between unemployment and crime rates?

TheGoodJoe:
At least we are learning.

Atiku is uniting the country by bedding women from different tribes of Nigeria and Tinubu is elevating the philosophy of the Nation with some good medical supplies.

The Siamese twins and peas in a pod.

The best of bonds.

TheGoodJoe:
The reason why your understanding of philosophy is on a ground level is because you are not smoking some good stuff.

Be like Tinubu and get high all the time taking some good stuff. Then you will understand the deep philosophy of the Agbados.

I mean?

Be like say we go start a change.org petition requesting Tinubu be magnanimous enough to tell us his supplier.

Let's get high together with him so we can fly higher as a nation.

PlayMaker14:
Persephone1 will teach you the good art of Vawulence.

I don dey learn from her already; I need an upgrade.

IkeAnumudu:
Those were Peter Obi’s own words: That the Brewery has employed 60% of the Anambra workforce.

That leaves only 40% joblessness, isn’t it?

Let me just be laughing….

Give me context, abeg. And direct me to where he said so.

No be today dem born me.

IkeAnumudu:
Tinubu gave one of the very best answers to that question. Did you listen to Reuben Abati taking Daniel Bwala to the cleaners for uttering this same tosh you wrote here?

Which cleaners over which tosh?

Leave public figures on TVs alone.

We're here on NL. You come and take me to the cleaners, lol.

PlayMaker14:
You're gradually entering the Vawulence department....

I love this and I hate PEACE.

I am but a learner at your sandaled feet, Rabbi.

IkeAnumudu:
Tinubu gave one of the very best answers to that question.

Ehnn, na why I call am philosopher nau. Awon eyan Aristotle; protégés of Marcus Aurelius.

Why you come dey drag me for hailing your principal now?

deeva2:
Obi is a confused failure..

Shey lo'oto?

A confused failure unlike your philosopher, Agbalagba Baba Drugy, abi?

Treadway:
Omo yi, o gbo oyinbo o (you Sabi English o). Had to go all the way to 'Testerical'. Lol

That, plus cumstruation.

Any guy that calls me hysterical or asks if I am menstruating and it's affecting me, gets hit those two retorts. E no pass dawan.

SmartyPants:
Cheers.

I can bet my big toe that you would have contended that if not...

SmartyPants:
It's okay if you don't know the answer. Don't be hysterical to deflect.

Makes you look silly.

And you're a testerical clown; no cap.

SmartyPants:
Okay, sounds something like a plan. Has he mentioned the major products he expects Nigeria to export using this value chain?

Wow! Is this how you're going to keep going "sounds like a plan, not yet the final end result, has he mentioned this specific detail?"

Now I see your moniker is an apt description of all you've been asking on this thread.

IkeAnumudu:
You mean the same SABmiller that has managed to successfully reduce Anambra’s unemployment rate to only 40% by “employing 60% of all employable Anambrarians in its Anambra complex”?

#smh #yeyedeysmell

Sarcasm, right?

^ This dude sha.

SmartyPants:
a. Insecurity. This is a tough one and he isn't telling us how he will do it so we can't be sure he really has a plan.

There was no (record of a) bank robbery in Anambra State for close to seven years (most of it during Obi's tenure) and this is corroborated by both the State Commissioner of Police and the IGP as at then—with the exception of two cases that were unsuccessful.

Evans, the kidnapper, also confessed to being chased out of Anambra State by Obi's government before he came to Lagos and was caught.

Do you think it wise for him to release security details and how exactly he hope to fish and shake out bandits, just so he can convince you as a ... what sef?

https://swiftreporters.com/oshiomhole-goofed-anambra-state-was-the-safest-state-under-peter-obi/

The above is not convincing enough to you that he can really deal with insecurity?

Abeg, Google some of these things. I am just telling you ni, but the facts are definitely out there. It can get tiring have to go copy and pasting links, that you may not even go through unless you researched it with your own hand.

SmartyPants:
Cheers, thats a good start but ultimately nowhere near the final answer.

When we deal with insecurity, we'll merely return to our normal pre-insurgency agricultural output. That is enough to feed the nation but that wont make us net producers.

How do wr get to the point where we begin to become major producers in agriculture?

It must be done by value addition not mere farming.

That will happen when we can turn a basket of tomatoes into a carton of tinned tomatoes.

So again, what is the plan for this?

I'll thank you at least, that you're not just one looking to argue meaninglessly.

Now concerning the bolded, I'll cite the examples of Umza Rice Mill and Innoson Motors. These are local companies that Obi have supported, and patronised.

When he deals with insecurity, so products are available, he'll invest in manufacturing industries that are specialised in turning raw materials into different by-products.

If Obi can support Innoson, he'll support many more struggling local businesses that are into the kind of conversions you cited, here in Nigeria.

Note; he's done it.

With his own PERSONAL money, he supported Umza Rice Mill and it is one of the biggest contributor to the Nigerian economy today. He definitely will do more with PUBLIC money in supporting other of such industries. After our consumption, the remaining of these excesses will be exported, and he obviously has knowledge in that too.

There are numerous small scale businesses Obi supported in Anambra, all from the private sector, that contributed to the State's economy.

SABMiller is another example. It was one of the biggest breweries in the world before its going defunct, and Obi attracted them in building their greenfield site in the State, and in the country.

I know you may point out that is it a foreign company, local to another country, but that doesn't mean Nigerians here would not be gainfully employed in construction and management of the businesses, and will be a contributory agent to the overall worldwide exports of the brand.

Obi also built many diplomatic relations the Gates, UN, UNICEF, World Bank and so many more international affiliations, for the very first time.

These relationships, when leveraged and replicated on the national level, can aid Nigeria in becoming a major producer and exporter of (agricultural) products. Innoson and Aba-made products can become world brands under him. He'll market them, patronise them, make use of them in strategic governmental places and in the country, and export them.

Oh, yeah. And sure, we were exporting some things before the pre-insurgency periods, but we've always been battling with corruption and high cost of governance, hence a low export rates.

Obi saved money, cut the cost of governance and invested in projects in Anambra; if he replicates that in Nigeria, our production and export rates become bigger and higher than ever before, and with his track record of attracting investors and useful diplomatic partnerships (not the optics and on-paper style our leaders are fond of doing), Nigeria becomes a dominant force in meeting the world's markets and needs.

Everything I write/say aren't 100% projections and predictions. It's something he has done and excelled in, and Anambra is proof of it:

RexTramadol1:
This is ridiculous!

Drab response.

So, a bandit earning between a million or 3 in an operation will now go to farm for 50k

Well, he reasons like his supporters or vice versa.

Calm down. You don speak to bandits before?

Person tell you say he go prison go interview them, you dey argue.

You know these bandits are usually in numbers? With "nwa boys" under them? So after the big fishes don't collect the lion share, watin go remain for them baby cubs na? Dem go buy operation tools too o. And dem go settle "blind olopas" for a successful mission.

So, calculate am, if you be (entry-level) bandit, how much go reach you?

SmartyPants:
The earlier thread was quite unfair and misleading.

However, the question remains unanswered. It was, "how do you intend to take Nigeria from consumption to production?"

From this interview, one way: by boosting and encouraging food production.

Insecurity and banditry have sent farmers away from the farms, and so we are left dealing with the attending problems of that. Weak local markets, propped by importation, high cost of food, etc.

When he deals with banditry and insecurity, more farmers are able to return to their farms and they'll produce more goods, both for our consumption and exportation.

IreneJane:
You call yourself literate right?

Ah, but that's where you got it all wrong. I do not claim to be literate or anything in anyway, in whatever means.

So next time, you'll do better to stop reading my comments as if they're meant to be comprehensible.

Have a nice day.

aujile:
One presidential candidate came out to shameless talk about how he will increase credit facility as solution and some morons cheered him up

I swear. No be their fault na. Shey it's Obi that made himself accessible to the public, that's why they are all putting only his own ideas and thoughts to the chopping block.

Kaysalas:
Now, see why I said many of you supporting Obi, just like him are half witted?
Obi imports from Europe, doesn't mean he exported the same goods from Europe. It is the manufacturers of those goods who did the Exporting while Obi did the importing of the same goods. Obi cannot export goods from Europe because he doesn't have a manufacturing company in Europe from which to do such. Stop yarning crap. It is getting really irritating

No, you're the dumb one here for failing to grasp a simple explanation.

And you know that Obi is not in direct contact with the manufacturers of those foreign goods? It is not plausible to you that a person who is importing to one country can double as an exporter for another country?

Kaysalas:
I already told you to go look for your types.

My types, where? Who are my types?

You mistake for one to get scared off because of bland words online.

Better ignore me quick enough, because nothing you say will stop me from quoting you if I deem it fit.

You're on the Internet, bro.

biotechshola:
And with this response, you're convinced?
This man clearly lacks substance, he's only riding on the emotion of some aggrieved youths.

Oh. Now it's that his response is not convincing enough for you?

But you agree a falsehood, a cut-and-join video was posted by TonyeBarcanista, deliberately misleading the public about him?

Kaysalas:
This seem a bit plausible as you are making a bit of sense. But considered objectively, you will agree with me that the moving from consumption to production mantra is immediately rendered foolish if his only defense is that he only imports 25% of his wares, thereby locally sourcing the remaining 75%. You can't be locally sourcing 75% of your wares and be shouting from consumption to production. I hope you will see this without being blinded by sentiments. Cheers

Two facts can coexist together, otele.

He can source for 75% of his own locally-produced goods in a country that imports most of its goods.

(90% of crimes are committed by men ≠ 90% of men are criminals).

Apply the same logic here.
