Subsidywise20:
And how would Peter Obi improve power supply, and health care funding?

Keep in mind the same issues were there when he was a governor, and are still there now.

Plus, we have a problem with power supply....it is charged at a cost below its cost of production, plus there are people who do not pay for power.

These are serious questions, mind...and the same questions too go to tinubu, atiku and company.
The principal reason for privatization was to curb corruption and get the economy going again. Unfortunately that attempt was ruined by the same politicians who introduced many crooked schemes to subvert the power sector.

Without doubt, Obi brought about massive improvements in the economy of his state when he was the governor. Politicians of other parties tried to bring his record to disrepute.

Do not forget that the present government told us about an agreement with Siemens of Germany to improve the power sector. We may wish to ask what happened to it.

I made a comment earlier of the need for a leader with the will politically. Obi is that leader.

The single reason this country has faced economic difficulties is corruption. The moment we have a leader who can tackle corruption without fear or favour, then we are on the right step, in the right direction. Other issues bedeviling the country like power, healthcare, roads, etc can be easily fixed. A corrupt leader will ensure that only corrupt persons like him hold positions of power.

Baba there's no hope anywhere. Peter Obi will not embezzle OK what of his ministers? What of those civil servants? What of that 9ja police at the road side? Or is he accountable for all of them? The corruption in the civil service na government we go blame?
Baba forget all these talk I no see anything anybody fit do. No matter who enter next year our problem will still persist. Insecurities will still be there,there will still be deficiency in our infrastructure,food price will not reduce in fact e fit go up, petrol price will probably increase, even if the power supply will still be bad, it'll take more than 5yrs to fix any stable light supply for this country.
You guys should better not get your hopes up and be disappointed as buhari disappoints his BMC. Na only ASUU strike next government fit fix the rest na autopilot.
Look, we need a leader with that strong will to take decisions. We need that leader who is very firm with his convictions. We need that leader who will not look at tribe or religion.

The late Mr. Li Kwan Yu, was known as the father of Singapore had that political will to take the decisions that made Singapore the quality of nation that it is today. It took years to achieve, but they achieved it. Look at the United Arab Emirates today. They set off in 1985 and today their airline has one of the largest fleet in the world. It is the center of commerce where those who cannot locate industries in Europe and Asia can easily get their products.

Our politicians are greedy, selfish and crude. All they seem to understand is the language of looting. They are actually in it. That’s why they believe so much in permanent interests. That’s why they are able to easily decamp when things do not seem to go their way.

We need a leader who understands how economies work. We need leaders who understand how nations works. We need leaders who know how to develop and make nations great. We need young and capable leaders. We do no need treasury leaders, those who are not about to account for how they acquired their great wealth.

A vote for Peter Obi is a vote in the right direction.

HIPROFILE:
That is a hospital under the federal government not state.

Wike did well in regards the state hospital he rebuilt and over equipped the one at water lines then another one opposite PAMO he built new hospital facility there.

So this one is duty of the Buhari led APC government that you voted into power that brought everThing working policies and parastatals to a stop.

Even when Amaechi was Gov of rivers state under PDP he invested heavily in state public hospitals.

All we need is a compassionate leader and for sure APC and PDP have failed to present us with such persons hence the reason we are following Peter Obi even if he contests with no running mate, Even if he go form new WAZOBIA party we go follow am go there.

Suffer deh tire us and we are tired!
Very well said. UPTH is a federal government owned hospital. We have a minister who is a medical doctor, but appears overwhelmed with labour matter. We have a health ministry and certainly a supervising ministry over the teaching hospitals, yet they are overwhelmed.

Let’s join hands to get Peter Obi there. That’s the only hope Nigeria has.
HealthRe: 14 Babies Die At UPTH’s Incubator, Doctors Suspend Surgery Due To Power Outages by Cantonese: 11:01am On Jul 02, 2022
“ A medical officer at the hospital who spoke to Standardobservers on the conditions of anonymity said among the dead babies were the twin babies of a woman who had been looking for the fruit of the womb for seven years.

She said the woman gave birth last month but due to the premature nature of the delivery, they were put in an incubator”.

What a country!
What a shame!
What a monumental failure.
Shame on all the leaders of this country.

hopman98:
I think the north will deliver bloc votes for BAT if he picks a northern muslim gov as running mate but this will cost him southern nigerians votes, majorly christians. The country is in a delicate situation. I'm a muslim but a muslim muslim ticket is a time bomb, it'll further cause disunity and animosity
You appear sentimental about it all.

Have you ruled out the challenge posed by Kwakwanso? Where would the block votes be coming from for any of the parties as it stands? Have you ruled out Atiku? And who says Peter Obi does not already have followers in the north, irrespective of the belief of some that LP has no structure?

This time the office of the President is up for grabs. In 2015, we withnessed about 26 million voters of the entire voting population for the presidency. How many will leave the comfort of their votes to vote, considering the security challenges?

The north voted Buhari because he had that followership. The same will not happen again in 2023.

You guys seem to think that voters are only spread between the NW and SW. What has happened to the NC and SS. Have you forgotten that Rivers state alone brings in over one million voters? Do you think APC has Kwara state in the bag, with the crisis that has left Lai Mohammed’s followers to join SDP? Do you think APC can win Plateau state this time? What about the NE? What about Sokoto state? How can APC win there? Can APC defeat NNPP in Kano state presently with Kwakwanso? Do you not remember that the SW has a huge population of northern supporters of Kwakwanso and Obi? They will vote for their candidates in the SW. Those SW votes are not expected from only the Yoruba speaking people.

These things are considered by all the contestants. Social media is the place where you find people who do not understand politics. You find people who are deeply shortsighted and believe that they know all.

Let’s do the mathematics now if you are ready. Let’s do the political arithmetic now and we can have a fair idea of how it will go.

With APC leadership, Nigeria is fast on the path of the American prediction of a breakup.

It is a very big embarrassment on this nation. The nation has descended to the level of countries like Mali, Niger, Chad and Afghanistan. Chaos, fear and threat remain the order of the day.

Factcheck0001:
one problem with u igbos is that u will never agree u made a mistake n that’s d same reasoning u are not regarded till now

Once things go well u claim it but once it goes wrong u blame everyone except yourself

Many of u were beating chest n rejoicing on twitter yesterday n screaming arewa for peter obi but now that it has been rejected then u can blame tinubu for it

This is madness
Where is the mistake please?

Madness is when your religion is infused into your culture and the two are forced on other people.

Abubakar Atiku is a Muslim. Many Igbos will vote against Peter Obi, in favour of Abubakar Atiku. Igbos wear Atiku’s clothes into their worship places. Igbo Pastors and leaders openly canvass for him. They have his images all over their places. The same goes for Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

What is wrong in accepting the fact that Peter Obi has supporters inside mosques? What is wrong with Peter Obi having supporters in the north too?

You all need to be better educated on the evil effects of using your religion to trouble society. If we say Nigeria must be one, then every Nigerian must enjoy his freedom of expression and association.

APC have always struggled in Delta state and that will not change anytime soon. Just like Lagos State, everything is cast in one Iron, Ibori influence is still very strong. Without the scandals Ibori would have be as strong as Tinubu right now, but he got exposed too easily.

Meanwhile Peter Obi people are very calm today, àbí dem don turn new leaves, no insults nothing. All of them are just commenting with civility and everything is going smooth this morning grin grin grin until some unruly person go scatter the peace and bring vawulence.

Has APC ever won Delta state?

We all know that Delta state is wholly PDP. Omo Agege now is among those who will neither return to the senate or hold an elective position in 2023.

Okowa with his current VP slot will ensure that Delta state is secured for him and Atiku. Omo Agege will lose his senatorial zone.

PoliticsRe: Ekweremadu's Donor Was Given A Passport Of A 41-Year-Old - UK Doctor by Cantonese: 3:29pm On Jun 28, 2022
1stGenAmerican:
Ike applied for it. Both the British police and the British courts say the boy’s documents used to obtain the visa are fraudulent. That means that Ike used fraudulent documents to apply for a visa.
Ekwerenmadu could not have used forged documents to obtain the boys visa. Think friend, think. At his level and with his position, he does not need to appear before any visa officer. That’s the job of his protocol. That’s what obtains in all ministries and MDAs. You can easily verify that. Besides, the head of immigration confirmed the authenticity of the boy’s passport. His visa application clearly showed that his expenses would be covered by Ekwerenmadu. You need to wonder where it all went wrong.

By the way, which father would watch his child suffer such pain without doing something about it? The man did the appropriate think in the circumstance. He negotiated. The boy apparently agreed. Look out for the boy’s bank statement, if the court approves the request. You will find a deposit made into the account by Ekwerenmadu.

Once again I believe that the boy chickened out after hearing from the doctor. The police came and and the rest became history.
