If "Obidient" becomes a religion, in 10, 20years time, it will rival and outgrow many religions of this world of under 100yrs standing. Even Jesus himself wasn't this widely remarkable in his life time.


Modified: For all those of you quoting my comment and capping noooonsense, how else do you think every other religion started? (Most especially all the Abrahamic Religions)

Someone taught of himself to possess unequal and unusual remarkable abilities, living life different from what is obtainable within the society, be in good standing with many people, etc...

Usually, years later, the people who are touched my their way of living, messages and lifestyles would want to continue the pattern because they consider it noble and would favor the masses, built better socities, they will then write book about him, organize weekly meetings to discuss it, and going forward tie the concept and ideology to the name of God.

Boom, that's how religion is born.

The popularity of the religion will now be dependent on the marketing skills of the promoters. Ideally, it's usually when the figure head is long dead that their impacts will grow very loud.

PS: The ruling classes are never ever in support of these kind of people as they always perceived them as theat to their corrupt government. If you know the underlying stories of most leading religions on earth, you will find out that their trajectory is not different from this pattern.

My weekend activity of serving food at a special event has been generating interest, as expectedly, because leaders in our society have removed the service component in leadership.

It's sounding strange that I was seen serving food to people. Let me be clear, that event was not about me. It was called the Jubilee of Hope, and its purpose is straightforward, to remind us all that true leadership is service, and that those who have must never forget those who do not.

When I attended the Jubilee of Hope in Imo State, it was a private service event. I did not post about it, nor did I invite media coverage. Unfortunately, some third parties, completely outside of my team, shared photos and videos. As expected, the usual naysayers and paid agents went to work trying to twist something sincere into something political.

But let me restate the heart of the matter, the Jubilee of Hope is designed for the rich to come down from their high places, even if just for a moment, and serve the poor, not as a show, but as a symbol of the society we must build. A society anchored on empathy, equity, and responsibility.

I was not the only one who served that day. Many well-meaning and distinguished Nigerians also participated, people like Cardinal Onaiyekan, Senator Osita Izunaso, former Chairman of Seplat Plc, Dr. A.B.C. Orjiako, and many others, quietly and sincerely. It wasn’t about the cameras; it was about conscience.

I am genuinely surprised that this simple act has become a topic of discussion. As Governor, I always served others whenever we had events. Even now, in private life, I do not have a house help. When guests visit my home, I serve them myself. I live simply, I sweep, I clean, because for me, humility is not a campaign strategy; it is a way of life.

At the Jubilee of Hope, I stayed longer because many of the poor attendees requested that I serve them personally. I could not ignore them. That was the only reason. Otherwise, there was nothing special about what I did. Service is not special, it is expected.

We cannot speak of building a New Nigeria while ignoring the hungry, the forgotten, and the poor. Events like this must not remain symbolic, they must become cultural. Public office holders, business leaders, and everyday citizens must unite in lifting others.

Let us work together to build a country where hope is not seasonal, and dignity is not a privilege, but a right.

A New Nigeria is POssible.

If they and what happens when they don't? Shey coalition has been formed, let's see how it plays out.
You think Obi got votes because he was loved, dude played religion and got majority of Christian vote. that's what gave him the 6 million votes, and propaganda that Tinubu was sick and too old to rule, those tricks are gone now. Have you heard anyone use those lines again.
I am going to quote you after the convention, when Atiku picks the ticket.

You are still learning politics. You may need to sign up for POL101 to brush up your understanding of the Nigerian political dynamics. Things don't work that way.

Nukilia:
I imagine the kind of flogging APC will chop come 2027. The kind shame wey go catch you as an APC guy will be too much to cope with.

To the APC miscreants,*collect your money now make dem no give you plantain chips chop*

How Nigeria's economy deteriorated to this level under the leadership of drug addicts and corrupt souls must be studied for the next 50 years.

Its sad how our Professors under the INEC strata were also co-opted to work in support of the ruling party at the detriment of sane citizens.

Winning the election in 2027 by ADC is important, but investigating the role played by the various arms (Esp. Judiciary) of government must be well documented and the culprits must be locked up for a very long time...

And who is bode Gorge in the coalition? PDP did the same thing in 2023 and the beneficiary of that arrangement is heading the current opposition. So what fact are you talking about again.
You think Atiku is wasting his energy, and time just to handover the ticket to a southerner? Dude literally formed the coalition single handedly. Age is not on his side, by 2031 he woulsd be 86 years, for someone who has been contesting for president since 1993, it becomes a routine. He's going to pick Ameachi, not even Obi as his running mate.

You are living in your head. Try and read the room to draw the inference. The Northern elements have unfettered opportunity to rule the country between 2031 to 2039 if they support the gentleman agree of 4yrs term of Peter Obi. Why truncate it with Atiku's ambition?

Otilo ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

asfrank:
You clearly don't know anything, there's a reason they chose David Mark from the North Central as chairman. Meaning the ticket is open to the core North.
Atiku would let Nigeria burn if only he can be president of the ashes, so does everyone in this coalition.

Your opinion is based on permutation not fact. Go and figure what BODE GEORGE said about Zoning recently

My own is that Peter Obi should start building strong strategic alliance Northern ADC delegates against 2027 primaries NOW! It's very much obvious that the ticket is going to be zoned to South.... which will be contested between AMAECHI and OBI.

Kachikwu seeking relevance. I would rather advice he join the moving train.

Some people are going to hear ween in 2027. It's APC, TINUBU and INEC Vs NIGERIANS. It's going to be interesting time ahead in the Nigerian politics

Otilo

Now we can officially say Nigeria is a two party system. APC and ADC. While this is a clear strategic move to upend the ruling All Progressive Congress, I don't think Tinubu is going to rest on his Laurel. Let the f!ght begin. Goodbye to Governance, Welcome to Politics and let the best win.

I like the name ADC, as it comes before APC alphabetically speaking. Yes, as little as it may sound, strategically speaking, it still makes sense. Patiently waiting for Peter Obi to give us a matching order and the street will erupts in frenzy. It's going to be Nigerians against APC. SIMPLE.

The ends of governance by Tinubu is over, it's all politics and more politics from now till election day.

In whatever you do, avoid bad leadership at the top. The Spirit of any organization, family, nation, groups lies within the leadership. Tinubu has changed the spirit of Nigeria such that reckless things like these are now being normalized, all because of politics. SMH

Testing the new 40 character effect whether it's true. Now that I have confirmed it to be true... I'm quietly back to my ghost and readers mode.

Just wondering why we on ground are not seeing this growth.

Nigeria is the poverty capital of the world now according to IMF, World Bank and United Nation.

People are suffering like never before; our youths are idle and without jobs, many are taking up to fraudulent activities both on the internet and offline, costs of food are extremely high, millions of families are going to bed hungry, people are dying in their numbers due to insecurity, several communities have been displaced and now settled on what they called IDP (Asylum) camps.

Whoever sponsored this news report is very wicke*d and is tanishing the credibility of your news channel. Verify before you report.

When Peter Obi was asked his opinion on the recent flood of migration into APC that's going on in Nigeria the last time he visited Cambridge University, he answered that 2027 is going to be Nigeria against the ruling party, and that's exactly what's going to be!
