Soludo has made it his mission to constantly attack and discredit his predecessor, Mr. Peter Obi, at every opportunity. His relentless vendetta against Obi has gone beyond healthy political disagreement and has descended into outright lies and deliberate misinformation.



Soludo’s False Poverty Claims Against Peter Obi

One of Soludo’s most blatant lies was his claim that poverty in Anambra State doubled under Peter Obi’s administration. This assertion is not only false but also easily disproven by data from the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS), during Obi’s tenure. Lagos under Tinubu had 69.4% poverty rate while Anambra had 53.7% under Peter Obi. But Soludo thinks 69.4% poverty rate is better than 53.7%, hence he keeps praising Tinubu who has even made Nigerians poorer since he was sworn in 2023 as Nigerian president. Soludo, as an economist and professor, knows better than to peddle such falsehoods, but his desperation to tarnish Obi’s reputation has pushed him to abandon facts for propaganda.



Soludo’s Hypocrisy on Investments: The Beer Shares Controversy

Recently, Soludo again tried to ridicule Peter Obi’s investment strategy by mocking Anambra State’s shares in a beer company. He claimed that the beer industry has no potential, a shocking statement from someone who calls himself a professor.



One wonders: How did Soludo earn his professorship if he lacks basic knowledge of global investment trends? The beer industry is a multi-billion-dollar sector worldwide, employing millions and generating massive tax revenues. Even Bill Gates, one of the world’s smartest investors, holds shares in Heineken. If the investment was truly worthless, why hasn’t Soludo sold the state’s shares to the person offering to buy them? His hypocrisy is glaring.



The Real Reason Behind Soludo’s Attacks: Political Sycophancy

Soludo’s obsession with attacking Peter Obi is not driven by genuine concern for Anambra State but by his ambition to curry favor with President Bola Tinubu and the APC. His goal is simple: position himself as a loyal opposition voice in the South-East, hoping that Tinubu will reward him with a future presidential ticket.



However, history has shown that sycophants rarely reap lasting rewards. Soludo’s desperation to please Abuja at the expense of truth and good governance will only diminish his credibility. Anambra people and Nigerians at large are watching—they see through his lies and recognize Peter Obi’s legacy of prudence and development.



Soludo’s Mission Will Fail

Soludo’s hatred for Peter Obi is unhealthy and unbecoming of a leader. Instead of focusing on governance, he spends his time fabricating lies against Peter Obi. Unfortunately for Soludo, no amount of propaganda can erase Obi’s legacy.



At the end of the day, Soludo’s sycophancy will bear no fruit. History will remember Peter Obi as a visionary leader and Soludo as a bitter critic who traded his academic integrity for political opportunism.

Monetize Nairaland

You too greedy

This woman's beauty really got into her brain
It's funny how she thinks she can leverage on her beauty to accuse every Tom, Dick, and Harry of sexual harassment.
Her husband is really going through a lot. No wonder they say that a man who marries a beautiful woman and a farmer who planted maize by the roadside have same problem.

Whatever their motives are, the point is that the Muslim religion is gradually penetrating the south east.

In like 50 years time, they will be about 25 percent and by then, they will have a voice.

Sponsorship of pilgrimage either to Mecca or Jerusalem is complete waste of money . Do they do that in UK or US? Religion is a personal thing

rinzaugustine:
Same soludo that was attacking Peter Obi asking him to come back to apga now couldn’t even fly apga banner or even wear his customary apga cloth but decorated everywhere with APC just goes on to strengthen my belief in Peter Obi. Look all around the country at the kind of people criticizing Peter Obi, you can never find any one of them with honor or integrity or capability or honesty…only dishonest thieves , wolves, criminals, looters of public treasuries and their supporters who can never stand on the side of the masses, you will find criticizing Obi . A new Nigeria is possible with Peter Obi

You don't need to be enemy with the presidency. You need his cooperation to get federal government projects in your state

Expect Soludo to dump the dirty party and join APC. Make una dey play with Yoruba, the best tribe in naija una go learn the hard way.

Haaaaa wahala.

A viral post on social media has stirred widespread debate after a Nigerian man based in the United Kingdom was reportedly handed a wedding expense list totalling ₦21,570,000 by his fiancée’s family in Nigeria

The controversial list was shared on X (formerly Twitter) by user @HOLARMEEDEY1, who expressed outrage over what he described as an exploitative demand placed on an immigrant who had only recently relocated to the UK less than two years ago.

“You reach UK e never reach 2yrs. You are not from a rich family. And your potential wife is not from a rich family either. But e reach time for wedding your in-laws are giving you quote that want to unalive you and you cannot refuse,” he captioned the list.

The list reportedly included over ₦5 million for the event hall alone, alongside other substantial expenses. According to the post, the groom-to-be was also expected to buy the bride’s wedding gown and foot the bill for her parents’ outfits, with no financial contribution from the bride’s family.

Wen will Duru tells us the amount he - goat bribed her.

Abi Duru just wake up from slumber after over 2 months in which the issue has been lingering on public space?
Only a fooool won't know he-goat using counter social media fight by proxy to silent Natasha, since he has tried intimidation and court unsuccessfully.


Go back to Nigeria court, the case is close to 3 months now, yet they still merry-go-round a point without conclusion, ditto constitution breach PDP took Tinubu to court in Fubara case.

Nigeria a sorry nation.
