Which fake news be dis

ochejoseph:
It was Peter Drucker who said that "effective leadership is not about making speeches or being liked; leadership is defined by results not attributes". This Saturday offers millions of Nigerians especially young people the opportunity to look beyond emotions, tribal affiliation, or religious sentiments to elect a President with a proven capacity to lead us out of the current mess we have found ourselves.

The purpose of this write-up is to help us look at the vital areas of national development and the capacity of the leading candidates to deliver based on their experience and antecedents.

Education: In terms of educational qualifications, Atiku is the most educationally qualified among the leading candidates, with an MSc in International relations from Anglia Ruskin University, Cambridge, UK. Obi has an average Bachelor's in Philosophy from UNN, while Tinubu has a questionable degree in accounting from the United States.

In terms of their contribution to education, Atiku is far above his competitors towering above them in terms of direct and indirect contributions to the development of education in Nigeria. As Vice President, his passion for education led him to directly intervene in the plight of Anambra school children who were left at home for over two years by Mbadinuju, it was also under the OBJ - Atiku led government that the Universal Basic Education (UBE) programme was launched.

Atiku built Africa's first development university, the American University of Nigeria where rescued Chibok girls were given scholarships. He has also vowed to pay all the withheld and outstanding salaries owed ASUU members and other university workers to underscore his commitment to education.

Tinubu, on the other hand, has no history of support for education beyond a few secondary schools he built during his tenure as governor of Lagos, same goes for Obi and none of them have also gone back to school to earn an additional degree since leaving school.

Peter Obi's record on ASSU strikes and lecturer welfare is also abysmal. Under him, University students stayed at home for years while he owed some educational workers for 36 months.

Job Creation: If there is one qualification the next Nigerian leader needs is the ability to create jobs. Tinubu is the worst when it comes to this benchmark because even though he eats from virtually every taxpayer in Lagos, he has no business that creates real jobs in manufacturing or other key sectors that drive the economy.

Obi is not far behind because as a trader, Obi's major supermarket businesses are import-based most of which take jobs from Nigeria and send them overseas to countries where those goods are manufactured. In contrast, Atiku's businesses are massive creators of jobs. In some states, Atiku is the highest employer of labour after the government because his companies are into manufacturing, agro-based products, and other key drivers of job creation in the economy.

Power: No economy can develop without power. Energy generation is the single reason why most companies are not making profits even banks are now closing early because of the prohibitive cost of power generation. Peter Obi travelled all the way to Egypt to learn about power generation yet he does not know the meaning of "green energy"! This is after 8 years as governor of one of Nigeria's biggest states.

Tinubus's credentials in power generation are far better than Obi's because he single-handedly championed the Lagos state Independent Power Project (IPP) handled by the American Company, ENRON to generate 90 megawatts of electricity which led to some improvements in power supply in Lagos.

Atiku's first-class hands-on experience in the areas of power generation and transmission is one area Nigeria stands to benefit from when elected into office. The OBJ - Atiku-led administration built or started most of the power-generating entities we have in Nigeria today. The PDP-led administration of Jonathan and Sambo completed the rest.

Healthcare: Tinubu and Obi's records in the provision of healthcare are also very poor. Under Obi, Anambra State Government employed medical doctors were on strike for 13 months as a result of his refusal pay the right salary, poor conditions of service, and lack of proper working equipment, Nigeria cannot afford such tragedy. Lagos under Tinubu had healthcare centers that are known for delivering the worst healthcare services. The claim that Tinubu met one functional ambulance as Governor is also false.

Atiku even as a private citizen is actively involved in the provision of healthcare for Nigerians beyond what he did while serving as vice president between 1999-2007. Long after leaving office, Atiku Abubakar went into partnership with the Saudi German Hospital to establish a 100-bed hospital and referral center in Abuja among many other interventions in the health sector.

Security: We cant talk about the 2023 presidential elections without talking about who among the candidates has the experience to tackle our current security challenges. It is a fact that the Obasanjo-Atiku era is the most peaceful period since our country transitioned to democracy.

It was a period when the term bandits was alien to our dictionary. As the number two man in that government, Atiku has the requisite skills and experience to rejig our current security system like they did between 1999 to 2007. Obi, on the other hand, lacks experience in security matters which explains why the Ezu River tragedy where hundreds of people were murdered under his watch is still a mystery. Tinubu on the other hand lacks the energy needed for a robust engagement and monitoring that our collapsing security architecture requires.

Preparedness: Its unfortunate that Tinubu the "Emi Lokan" coroner appears totally confused and directionless after being handed his party ticket. To date, he does not have a real policy document, the entire APC manifesto of 2015 he helped prepare which they disowned and failed to implement has suddenly formed the foundation of the documents they released recently. Tinubu also fumbled when it came to naming a running mate resorting to placeholders, even when he finally found one it was a one-sided Muslim Muslim aggregation that is currently tearing the nation apart at a time religious sensitivity is at an all-time high. A man who does not know how to comport himself when the National Anthem of his country is being recited or played is not ready to lead.

Peter Obi towers above Tinubu when it comes to his level of preparedness even though he also employed the services of placeholders for running mate, his inexperience in handling responsibilities at the national level is a minus. Like Tinubu, Obi has no real policy document that tells Nigerians what he plans to do if they vote for him. Beyond mad men's tales and vomiting crammed statistics most of which are wrong, the LP presidential candidate does not appear ready to lead a complex nation like Nigeria.

Atiku and the PDP on the other hand appear to be the most prepared candidate and political party. Atiku is the only candidate that wrote and released his policy document with a clear blueprint of what he intends to do when elected into office. He named his running mate on schedule, inaugurated his multi-ethnic and multi-religious campaign council, and flagged off his campaign council right on time as directed by INEC.

Conclusion
Those who have mismanaged our country are always happy to see us disunited when it comes to the choice of a presidential candidate because as long as we are divided we will always enthrone our oppressors. Nigeria does not need a President that will learn on the job, Nigeria does not need a rookie to experiment or complicate an already messed up system, what Nigeria needs is an Experienced Atiku Abubakar to reset our country, get it working again and return her to the path of greatness.

May God Help Us to Help Ourselves This Saturday!!!!

God Bless Nigeria!!!

When u want to do analysis, try to be balanced

ThatFairGuy1:
How do we describe this if not street credibility

You may add yours

Street credibility in Lagos 🤣
Let him come South South or SE to do street credibility 😂
Obi entered Lagos and scatter everywhere

N3TRAL:
Rev Alia is the most popular politician alive in Benue State today.

He is the APC candidate. Unpopular opinion - I tip APC to win Benue State.

APC will not come close

Bundaweber:
See the big lie wey you just dey blow

Lolz
An insider is telling u what happened
U dey osun state dey call me a liar
Are u normal?

Zionmdde:
All I have to say is if you mention Tinubu's name in Rivers State anything you see collect
I don't support violence of any kind but some other people might not see it like that

If you are voting for tinubu in Rivers State, do it quietly and go. Don't say i didn't advice you o

Leave them
In 2015 Oshiomole campaigned heavily for Buhari but a night to the election a secular was passed that APC ward chairmen should direct their members to vote GEJ
But buhari still got 25% sha

femisplash:
How can a hand wey dey shake hold a mic?.. All these propaganda don die tey tey.

So u never see Tinubu hand shake?

femisplash:
Obi held the hand of Asiwaju Tinubu with his two hands and a big smile over his face. He was holding on to Tinubu like a precious beautiful bride. Once again, it has proven that Tinubu is the air they breathe.

Obi grab baba hand well make he nor go fall🤣
For obi mind, nor be for my hand you go die

CoronaVirusRelo:
Picture depicts a boy receiving a handshake from his master! This is exactly how confederate slave owners use to handshake their slaves.

Peter is so humble! He dreads the demigod!

Lolz
He dey help am hold the hand make e nor shake commot😁

dustmalik:
You still don't get it, do you? Any online poll you conduct today, Obi will always win, no matter whose timeline you conduct it.

If you recall correctly, in 2019, Buhari lost all polls, online and offline. In fact, when Buhari was pit against a Stone, the stone won with landslide.

Come Saturday, when votes start to trickle in from all over the country, reality is going to set in.

I expect to be insulted, as is now usual.

Chai
The same Buhari that won even ANAP poll
Why u dey lie like dis?

johnpalmer774:
Foolish thinking, what was 14yrs of Obasanjo and Jonathan profited you as a Christian.??

I pity u
Turkey is still regretting today
Just dey play
Deborah dead is still fresh to us how the northern Muslim elites defended it.
Ur freedom is about to be taking away from u
Ur women will ban from having education just like in Afghanistan
Keep allowing tribalism to keep blinding u
When the problems start, na ur door step e go first hit

LordviccoDaGuru:
more pictures

Obituary fools will not sleep tonight. Buhari APC have collapses Peter Obituary's structure Peter Obituary can never win an Election in Nigeria. Go and write it down

Those Igbo wailers praising Buhari should still continue praising him after the elections. All of a sudden they started loving Buhari. Make sure u fools continue with ur love for him after the election. Because we'll disgrace and retire Obi-thief back to Beerfraud online country through sea on Saturday

So after Buhari rule for 8yrs a muslim
If Tinubu or Atiku win, another Muslim 16yrs
If Tinubu win, power will return to North after their 8yrs for another Muslim, making 24yrs

Christians please wise up. The Muslims will never allow that to happen.
You guys saw how GEJ was stop because he was a Christian nd a southerner

jamislaw:
Kwankwaso is more grateful to Obi for denying Atiku his strong hold south east and south south, Buhari won the election with 5% from south east.

Kwakwanso wont make 25% in more than 10states
So he is just trying to build Buhari-like structure for 2031, that is why he must help Obi to win now
Allowing Tinubu or Atiku to win now, will reduce his chances

Judolisco:
kwankwaso is winning only in kano and jigawa which is huge

He will have a huge vote in kaduna
Atiku will win katsina, sokoto
Tinubu will win kebbi and get 25% in the other NW states
Kwakwanso stepping down is the only outright victory for either APC or PDP, but he will not step down because he is building a buhari-like structure for 2031 and stepping down will spoil everything for him.
Again he will not want to support Atiku or Tinubu based on religion ground because if any of them win and after 8yrs, the Christians won't be so nice to allow another Muslim to rule. So he will prefer to scatter their votes to boost Obi chance
Him remaining on the ballot will give obi a bigger chance.
He miscalculated when he refused to work with Obi as vice and i bet he will be regretting it now.
During the debate when he told Obi to make sure he hold his base very strong, i sensed a sort of alliance

Judolisco:
I know u know u won't win... Most of u contesting are jst doing it for letterhead purposes.... So u can put on ur letter headed paper former presidential aspirant

Not aspirant but candidate
If kwakwanso do not step down, he will like take majority of Buhari votes
He will win most North west states and Atiku will win North East
SE and SS is for Obi
Na Tinubu get SW
So the battle ground will be NC and Abuja, benue and plateau is already sure for Obi
The election will be inconclusive and that is where the real alliance will take place

Chimaroke Nnamani

atobs4real:
I don't think you have anything meaningful doing. I am sure that extablishment of NPA Guest house has a purpose. Out of all 9ja problem, na NPA Guest House dey germane

What is the guest and office doing in the UK?
How many other country's port offices and guest house are located in Nigeria?
Is Nigeria the only country running port business?
Why do you people decide to defend every rubbish thrown to u but yet u will criticize Obi shoe or ordinary good morning
What is wrong with you people?
What kind of blind loyalty to criminals against your country is this?
You will surely reap the evil you support if u you dont repent of it

Emmy909:
So your obidatti can correct mistake, like the unknown gunmen killing your people, making life miserable ..... common sense is not common, most of you are being tribalism, attacking people online, ya don't have the structure. Until you online voters/troll understand politics is not social media.

Get your pvc and leave others to vote there conscience.

You come for me again, I send you to your battle field, where your unknown gunmen are killing your tomorrow.

You see how useless and senseless you are
Is Obi the president of Nigeria that will give the army order to go and stop the insecurity in the East?
So you want a private citizen like me and you to go and end insecurity in Nigeria
When boko haram where disturbing NE before 2015, nobody called Buhari to go and end it, e done reach Obi turn, u are crying like a fowl.
For ur info, i be Edo boy. Tribalism kee u there, anybody against Tinubu is igbos to u guys.
I'm the structure and i will vote Obi and defend it

christistruth01:
Peter Obi doesn't have a Clue about International Trade and Shipping

He should have just kept his mouth shut

He doesn't know that International shipping Companies would need to Liase with the international Head Office of the NPA to make sure everything is in order before heading to Nigeria

So na only Nigeria dey run port business in the whole world?
Continue defending
We deserve the leaders we get

Imindmywords:
I believe you are typing from a mini kiosk somewhere in Aba and you clearly dont understand port businesses. Shutup

Pls can u enlighten us how port business is run?
Please make sure to emphasize why only Nigeria is running a port office and a guest house in another man's country and in another continent
I'm waiting

atobs4real:
U will continue to be a slave If that is what u want for ur generation

How do u guys defend evil and went to bed as if nothing happened?
One thing is very sure,every sin has consequences
That evil u defend today will come to your door to knock soon

IgOga:
Obi is so shallow in his thinking......of course they have an office in London and have always had an office in London even in Jonathan days used by NPA customers


Did Obi not go to London to meet Obj and his G5......do you think Lagos port is the only port in West Africa? Anywaya is too early to educate educated illiterates following the ipob saint

How many countries in africa or in the world have port office and port guest house in Nigeria?
The evil u defend will come to door step very soon

BabaO2:
This guy is just only after his importation business. Obi china, the container economist.
BTW, you were in Jonathan's government senior SA, why can't you remove this then?

For not even upto a yr
SA can only advise and not implement
President have the final say
You are just too dull
