He has solutions in the form of already-made opinions from Argentina, Egypt, Bangladesh, China, and hardly from Anambra.

Obidients want Nigeria to be handed to a mediocre.

[quote author=WorkTheTalk post=139770761]Do not take my word for it. Just listen to some of Peter Obi"s achievements, 12 years ago.

I bet you didn't know that Peter Obi is fellow of the Chartered Institute of Bankers of Nigeria (CIBN) because he said he's a trader. 

Just so you know, a ‘Fellowship’ is comparable to a PhD in prestige within professional practice and may carry equal or greater practical… pic.twitter.com/XRE4kCDft9

knew and was listening to Obi before many of you turned 18. I can do an assessment of him while sleeping.

Peter Obi was a mediocre governor. He had zero creativity and lacked innovation skills. He keeps mentioning China, South Africa, and Rwanda as examples of development zones. Why does he hardly mention Anambra and use himself as a reference?

His claims are that Anambra was number one in WAEC. What does that mean? Has WAEC ever ranked states in Nigeria? He also boasted to have saved money in a bank. Turned out it was a bank he had interest in. He shored up the liquidity of the bank with Anambra state funds which allowed the bank to give loans and earn interests and make profits which can be used to pay dividends to shareholders of which he was a major individual shareholder. He talks about consumption to production. He has produced more crisis in political parties he goes to and cannot lead his followers. His company sells imported products. He has no plans to do anything, but just talk.

As a presidential candidate, he is even more mediocre. He cannot articulate his plans because he has none. In his most recent outing, he performed so poorly that Morris Monye said we should not mind what he said but have a president who doesn't steal.

Even the Obidients admit his limitations.

Today, he keeps saying things he would do that he could not do as governor.

They are comedians because they have nothing else to do. They lack creativity to construct jokes.

He announced himself the NDC candidate.

In every party primaries, those designated to conduct primaries announce results. In NDC, aspirants have been announcing themselves as candidates that we do not even know what to believe.

Several candidates will claim to represent the party and the courts will decide later.

NDC is not better than PDP, APC and ADC. The likes of Mama Pee and Randy Peter Otu Akah protested for live transmission of results. Why are they silent when NDC refused to conduct primaries and failed to transmit results of their consensus they decided on.

NDC turned out to ve no different from thd others.

Aregbesola fell off badly.

The case against ADC newcomers is very strong. Either they settle Bala Gombe amicably or they may end up not eligible for the 2027 elections. The person who caused this Bala Gombe crisis has abandoned the party. Let Atiku meet the guy and Dumebi Kachikwu and settle with them to withdraw all court cases. They are critical stakeholders in ADC. Carry them along.

David Mark and Rauf Aregbesola have not granted a single interview since last year.

Why?

Rotimi Amaechi has also not accepted his nomination as Atiku's running mate.

Why?

By the way, APC is not responsible for the crisis in any opposition party. If the house rat does not tell the street rat where the loopholes are, no outsider can exploit it.

Atiku, did I not ask you to avoid KO?

emkz:
I think Atiku should be advised to be wary of Kenneth Okonkwo.

Kenneth was with Tinubu and APC. Then he joined Obi and said a lot of nasty things against Tinubu. Now that he seeks refuge under Atiku, he has said a lot of nasty things against Obi.

By 2029, he will be saying the nastiest things against Atiku.

Atiku Abubakar, avoid KO and you will be OK.

Peter Obi will blame Tinubu for it.

When The Guardian leaked the news that Amaechi was Atiku's pick, the news did not go viral and many newspapers did not run the story. Tribune followed up with another story and still it didn't gain traction.

Now, we are hearing that pressure is mounting on Amaechi to accept the position from Daily Trust.

What can be concluded is that Atiku's ambition and Amaechi's pick is not well marketed and fails to gain traction. We have heard names like Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, Emeka Ihedioha, and Dele Momodu. Still no traction. Amaechi knows he is needed because of finances, and Amaechi probably wants to save his money for 2031 when he can run as VP with a northern candidate. In 2014, Amaechi and Tinubu truncated Atiku's plan in APC when they supported Buhari financially and on all fronts. In 2019, Amaechi was DG of Buhari's campaign that defeated Atiku/Obi. Today, Atiku sees Amaechi as a partner. If Atiku trusts Amaechi, then Atiku has not groomed himself a potential running mate.

I suggest David Hundeyin or Nduka Obaigbena for Atiku's consideration. Nduka has money.

General CG Musa, are you tired of the job they gave you?

It is scandalous that you are asking Nigerian youths to lead a fight you were employed to fight.

Why?

Christopher, terrorists murdered a General. Now, another General has died in the hands of bandits. When America goes after a terrorist, he is not arrested, he is executed.

Christopher, any terrorist still breathing is an indictment on you!

They even tried, but her greed overtook her sense.

What is her actual job? Activism is not a job.

Labour Party was fine. They came and left it in disarray.

ADC was fine. They brought their toxic demands and left.

NDC was fine, they started crises.

When will they stop?

I think Atiku should be advised to be wary of Kenneth Okonkwo.

Kenneth was with Tinubu and APC. Then he joined Obi and said a lot of nasty things against Tinubu. Now that he seeks refuge under Atiku, he has said a lot of nasty things against Obi.

By 2029, he will be saying the nastiest things against Atiku.

Atiku Abubakar, avoid KO and you will be OK.

That means Dele Momodu failed to market Atiku properly.

Obi believed he defeated Atiku and Tinubu to win the 2023 elections. Obi's followers are aggressive and use social media to create the impression that Obi is popular. How did Dele Momodu counter that? Where are skit makers to promote the Atiku brand?

Atiku, I have repeatedly asked you to avoid certain persons (reproduced below)

emkz:
Good idea.

It is his constitutional right.

Atiku has taken the record for the greatest number of presidential runs.

In 2023, he had the best shot in his life for the position. He had to be defeated to realize that division can be calamitous.

Unlike the other one, Atiku knew he lost. Because he knew this, he went to Chicago State University to prove an unfounded allegation that Tinubu never graduated from there. When he realized Tinubu graduated, he tried to prove Tinubu forged a certificate. When he realized that the Registrar of the University said they don't handle replacement certificate, Atiku took his deposition and brought it to the Supreme Court.

No US court stamped it, no US agency notarized it, no US Embassy authenticated it.
Atiku knew his deposition was inadmissible.

If he believed he won, why didn't he present his polling unit agents results from the field? If he believed the election wasn't free and fair, why didn't he publish cases of irregularities?

Atiku and the other one tried to plunge Nigeria into a constitutional crisis because they lost. They are not leadership materials. However, they stand a chance if Tinubu fails.

As for Atiku, if you ever want to run again, you must avoid the following persons:


1. Dino Melaye: this is the guy you allowed to lead your campaign. He is not mature for such responsibilities.

2. Phrank Shaibu: This one spent time attacking Tinubu instead of convincing voters about your programmes. He also defended the failure of your media team to do the proper work. He misadvised you to grant two press conferences that did not cover you in glory.

3. Daniel Bwala: This one has visited the person who defeated you more than three times in 5 months. He seems to already avoid you. Either he was a mole in your campaign or never believed in you.

4. Don Pedro Obaseki: He was your head of research and ought to have been aware and properly advised you that the Chicago route was a calamity for you. The premise that Tinubu never graduated was wrong. When you realized he graduated, you shifted to certificate forgery, which ended up being punctured. He failed to guide you properly.

5. Paul Ibe: This one only became visible after you lost.

6. David Hundeyin: This one was discredited by Oxford over matters of sexism and fraud by Oxford University. He released stories on Tinubu that were based on speculations and sold them to you. He scammed you.

7. Dele Momodu: Wike referred to him as a professional buttlicker.

8. Timi Frank: In 2022, this one lied that Tinubu did not graduate from Chicago. He claimed EFCC and FBI had a letter stating so. No one saw the letter and no one knew if he was high when he said this.

9. Nduka Obaigbena: This one could not come out openly to use his media houses to endorse you.

Others are: Peter Obi (he cost you the election) and Ifeanyi Okowa (he was not as enthusiastic as you in his desperation).

I cannot add Reno Omokri, because you never gave him a role in your campaign. I suspect he tweeted the condemnation of the lynching of Deborah Samuel Yakubu on your behalf on Twitter. You deleted the tweet and pushed him away.

Reno believed in you more than the others who scammed you of your money.

Some of the names in red already betrayed you by moving on to rub shoulders with the one who defeated you. One of them even gave an unsolicited man of the year award to your competitor to curry favours from him. The other one I asked you to avoid, you brought him to your coalition and his followers began to order you to step down and he eventually left with them and jumped into NDC fire.

Atiku, if you do not avoid these people, they would avoid you after using you.

Add Kenneth Okonkwo to that list. If you lose the 2027 elections, give him two years and he would insult you to hell.

RollinTNDA:
Very Mumu talk

I seriously pity anybody wey dey look up to celebrities for advice. I seriously pity una

Actually, you are not meant to take advise from anyone. Listen to what everyone says and advice yourself.

gassbee:
wil like to ask you a question, are u married

Yes. Happily so. Why do you ask?

DrAkpa:
So he would rather go to people's houses to eat their food and drink their drinks, and keep his money to himself?
Dem no dey give Shi Shi, as Obidients always say. He is very selfish from head to toe

He has never been shown eating in people's houses. He probably suspects he might be poisoned.

Macphenson:
Lol, Peter Obi is not a drug lord like Tinubu. We don't need to prove anything for U guys. Are you not wondering despite all the propaganda, Peter Obi's popularity keeps waxing stronger.

Assuming DSS picks you now or you charged to court for defamation, can you prove that Tinubu is a drug lord?

In case you cannot prove it, I hope you are aware that Nigeria has very strong laws against cyberbullying and defamation.

Dakuku Peterside was fined six billion naira for defmatation when he made unproven statements against Dr Peter Odili and Justice Mary Odili regarding Mrs Odili's role in a supreme court judgement. Dakuku Peterside is essentially ruined as his assets can be seized and sold to liquidate that debt.

Be careful what you promote. You are not as anonymous as you think. Your cell phone as its unique IP address which can be geolocated to find you.

Do not be a scapegoat because you can't control your utterances.

He said while he was governor, he saw they used to kill cow everyday to entertain visitors. He said he cancelled the practice and said if anyone wanted to see him, he'd rather go to the person's house.

That means, he doesn't receive people because he sees it as wasteful.

He also said he doesn't have a house in Abuja. He operates from a service apartment. He has been shown in one of such service apartments where he was serving food to Aisha Yesufu, Yunusa Tanko and some others. He has no PA or steward as he was also shown making his own tea by himself.

Finally, he doesn't really have political muscle to swing things for people. Since 2023, there is not a single politician he supported who won any off-cycle election. Even now, aspirants trust Kwankwaso and meet him than they meet Obi. Obi is not a leader, he is someone who takes advantage for himself.

Bovi is right. Many refuse to go their separate ways out of shame and claim it is because of their children. They do more damage to the mental health of those children while they die slowly from the pain of cohabiting with someone who no longer meets their desires.

You'd even see some of them sharing details about one another as if to poison the minds of the public against the other.

Just break cleanly. If you truly love those children as you claim, find ways to co-parent without transferring the emotional burden on the children.

There is no shame in divorce. The shame is lying to oneself and living everyday in pain and agony to keep appearances.

Dele Momodu said he wants to run with Atiku. He sees himself as the bridge between the old and the young. Dele Momodu is 66 years and is by no means a young man. He is also not a technocrat.

What caused the fight in PDP and ADC is that Atiku does not care about the unity and cohesion of the country. Is there any presidential contest since 2007 that Atiku did not indicate interest? Has Atiku ever supported anyone but himself since 2007?

Was it fair that a northern Fulani would succeed a northern Fulani in 2023? Would that not lead to Fulani hegemony in a country with more than 250 ethnic groups? Even the northwest zone with majority Fulanis in Nigeria rejected Atiku as they do not believe in any hegemony.

Which young person has Atiku groomed in the north or south?

emkz:
Dele Momodu is not a popular politician in the south and cannot secure the south-west and south-south for Atiku. He also doesnt have the warchest to support Atiku's run.

A running mate from south-east will not help Atiku either as Obi will win it. So Emeka Nwajiuba or Emeka Ihedioha are not going to help.

Atiku should consider Aregbesola (south-west) or Udom Emmanuel (south-south). Get Udom Emmanuel to decamp. Rotimi Amaechi is a political liability with a huge warchest. Make him DG of the campaign.

Mariangeles:
Well, sorry about that.

Xx

Don't worry. Just enjoy your food.

Mariangeles:
Yinmu!

Do you analyze and scrutinize everything before you eat?

I had to when I had a serious medical emergency due to spike in blood sugar, cholesterol, and high blood pressure. It was not funny.

Why do you think they started selling alomo bitters and those things?

Low in vegetables and protein (even the protein is fried), high in carbohydrates and oil (oily rice). It may lead to a rapid increase in blood sugar.

anigold:
You did not post this sermon when Goodluck was in power..

Talk is cheap

I joined Nairaland in 2017.

Fulani leaders should do well to report anyone pretending to be their own.

Every community has leaders of different settlers. Once a settler join, he should report to the community head who can identify him. If a member of a community commits a crime, the leader of that community should be held accountable. That way, someone is responsible for someone under his association.

Fulanis may have been unfairly stereotyped. Many kidnappers and terrorists are local gangs and even some people from outside Nigeria are recruited. Evans was doing lucrative kidnap business in Lagos charging in dollars. Did anyone know? Let everyone report new faces to Baales and local leaders so they can be properly profiled. Anyone caught kidnapping should be put on trial and if found guilty, executed.

It is easy to call the president to resign.

The president is commander-in-chief of the armed forces. State governors are called chief security officers of their states. State governors receive security votes. How are security votes utilised?

Southwest has Amotekun. Is Amotekun controlled by Tinubu?

Southwest has local hunters. Do they need permission from Tinubu to protect their forests?

State governors are custodians of land. Can't they protect the land under their custody?

When terrorists were running rampage in Borno, former president Jonathan met Borno elders and they demanded he withdrew soldiers from their streets. He asked them to give a guarantee that they'd ensure their states are safe. No one agreed to do it.

Now, where are our elders? In Plateau, they murder your people; you cannot defend yourselves. In Oyo, children are kidnapped back to back, the governor has not taken pro-active steps to rid his state of terrorism. In Ondo, a pastor fled and allowed his son to be taken. Bandits and terrorists have taken a fight to our doorsteps, put pressure on the governors. They are chief security officers of their states and actually receive money for that role. There is no law that stops them from hiring vigilante.

The president should take over security in states if governors cannot defend their states. Funds for security votes should not be sent again.

Finally, what is the point of keeping bandits and kidnappers for long? Quickly try them and send them to meet their ancestors. Also prosecute the sponsors. What exactly is delaying the completion of the trial of Evans the kidnapper? Is the state aware that Evans can still plan kidnap operations from his cell? Did the police ever arrest all his associates?

Peter Obi will never, ever talk about this. But let it happen elsewhere, he'd stitch 6 pages of twitter lamentations and conclude with:

A new Nigeria is PO-ssible. His middle name is Onwubuasi. It is supposed to be POO-ssible.

A new Nigeria does not necessarily mean it would be a good Nigeria. Afterall, NDC is a new party and it is far worse than ADC and APC in conducting party primaries.

A new Nigeria advocated by POO can be a terrible Nigeria.

In your delusion, you assumed I am from the region of unknown gunmen.

Please avoid me in this forum. I am not doing that tribal crap with you.

goslowgoslow:
Have you brought out the babalawo in your region to stop unknown gun men? Very soon this issue that people like you are turning into tribalism will get to your side. If you don't know they are already in Enugu.

Please avoid me.

esnbrutality:
Tinubu doesn't give a hoot about you. He feeds off your tribalism and haired for others. When almost 8 OBAs were killed in the same Ondo you NEVER said anything.

Keep looking for IGBO obsession news to gloat over, while your people are becoming captives.

Where is the CONTENT CREATOR called Sunday igboho? Where is Gani Adams?
