Senator Adams Oshiomhole has criticised the 2027 presidential ambition of Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) candidate Peter Obi, describing his promise to transform Nigeria within a single four-year term as unrealistic and driven by desperation.

Oshiomhole made the remarks during an appearance on TVC’s Beyond the Headlines, following Obi’s recent interview in which he reaffirmed his commitment to serve only one term if elected president in 2027.

Questioning Obi’s credibility, the former Edo State governor argued that the former Anambra governor had not remained consistent in his political convictions, citing his exit from the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) after leaving office.

“Let’s face it. The Peter Obi that was governor of Anambra State is not the Peter Obi of today, because the Peter Obi of Anambra was one who said, as a matter of respect to the memory of Ojukwu, he will not ever abandon APGA.

“But before daybreak, once his tenure ended, Obi became a political wanderer,” Oshiomhole said.

The APC chieftain also argued that Obi’s background as a trader makes him unsuitable to undertake the long-term planning required to govern Nigeria.

According to him, traders are primarily focused on short-term returns, unlike manufacturers and investors who plan over several years.

“Obi is a trader. Traders have short-term calculation. They are not into long-term projections. They are not wired to think of what situation will be in the long run,” he said.

Oshiomhole further alleged that Obi’s business interests revolve around importation rather than domestic production.

“Obi’s business is to export jobs and import unemployment to the country. That is what he lives for. He’s a trader,” he said.

In contrast, Oshiomhole praised President Bola Tinubu’s economic reforms, saying the President inherited a country facing severe economic challenges but had taken difficult decisions to reposition it.

“Bola Ahmed Tinubu is someone who believes that for your tomorrow, we must do certain things today, painful as it may be,” he said.

He likened Tinubu’s reforms to a life-saving surgical operation, arguing that the country is beginning to experience the benefits despite criticism from the opposition.

Oshiomhole also referenced Obi’s past comments during xenophobic attacks in South Africa, claiming they reflected poor judgment for someone seeking Nigeria’s highest office.

“Do you really believe that anybody whose business is for real, who couldn’t fix a state in four years, he worked hard in eight years, he didn’t fix it… is telling you and me at our age that he just needs four years? That is the height of desperation,” he said.


He added that desperation affects sound judgment, arguing that Obi’s campaign promises lacked credibility.

“Once you are desperate, you become emotionally imbalanced,” Oshiomhole said, adding that Obi would be “the easiest person to engage in a debate.”

Deeper Life Reacts To Report Claiming Pastor Kumuyi Said US Is Trying To Steal Natural Resources

Emmy_blackNov 3, 2025 7:01 AM

The Deeper Life Bible Church has publicly responded to online reports suggesting that its founder, Pastor Williams Folorunsho Kumuyi, opposed the United States’ military actions in Nigeria.

The statement was shared on the church’s official X account on Sunday, November 2, 2025, clarifying the position of Pastor Kumuyi and the church.

These reports appeared shortly after US President Donald Trump warned that if Nigeria continues to allow the killing of Christians, the US military might intervene to eliminate Islamic terrorist groups operating in the country. Following this, various online outlets circulated claims that Pastor Kumuyi had accused the US government of attempting to exploit Nigeria’s natural resources.

The Deeper Life Bible Church has since dismissed these claims as entirely false. In its official statement, the church emphasized that Pastor Kumuyi has not made any such remarks. It further noted that he is fully engaged with preparations and activities for the Global Crusade, leaving no room for him to comment on the allegations.

What still amaze me is the Nigerians believing Trump is interested in Christains affair in Nigeria lol.
The ratio of killing to Christains killingratio in US way higher than Nigeria. (In 50 killings in Nigeria only 2-3 are against the Christian, In US in the rate of 50 48 if not 49 are against Christians)

Nigeria should sacntion them, you can't dictate for a sovereign state.
After the prisoner deposit saga.
Trump has accused South Africa of White killing, Trump as accused Venezuela of Drug, Nigeria of selective killings, Iran of Nuclear Advancement.
Yet every single accusations happens in the US everyday.

Forget Nigeria trading crude for refine oil, direct exchange for yuan instead of dollar isn't affecting is a big lie. Currently America is on the thread of lose base on the dependency of Nigeria on themselves rather the US.
Mark my word the invasion of Nigeria by the US is going to be a great fall for the United States.

I trust in God and I trust in Nigeria governance as a process and I AM NOT A BETRAYAL OF MY SOIL.
GOD BLESS NIGERIA
GOD BLESS PRESIDENT BOLA AHMED TINUBU
GOD BLESS AFRICA

What is the agenda against us, what is it that the U.S knows that we don’t know?

Or is it the same Libya format at play all over again?

What do you mean. You actually think they were never gonna end their feud at one point?
You think they wont put their differences together to work to a common goal?

I'm not seeing any script here

You think they are not reading all the propaganda you are heaping on yourselves?

They may probably be afraid of drug dealers, bandits and rituists getting into their country.

Peter Obi's influence.
This has never happened in the history of Nigeria since independence.

Peter Obi is the only politician in Nigeria Who will never buy voters with corruption money and mortgage their future in order to recoup investments like Tinubu is currently doing.
This alone sets him apart from the rest.
