He only hijacked the ones others painstakingly built over decades
From APGA,to PDP to Labour Party
The man has no Political Ideology
Peter Obi is the real definition of opportunist He is by far the worse of l the candidates in terms of competence, capacity, intentions and achievement Peter Obi has no positive intention. You can't build right intentions on lies lies lies
David160: I don't know what will happen on the 25th but one thing is certain.. I will vote for Peter obi and I will stay back and make sure my vote is counted.
The real waste of votes is voting for a candidate that you don't believe in simply because you think he can win.
I have nothing against Yoruba people.. My only problem with Tinubu is that he's too old and too sick to be president that's all.
May God bring us to the date. Good luck with your choice but the narrative that Tinubu is old is certainly not true. I can't vdefend his age nor the age of other aspirants. No sick person can embark on this marathon spree of campaigns as Asiwaju being old and sick and not break down don't be carried away by the narrative in the media. Yesterday he was in kebbi standing for at least one hour addressing the people and moved to Abuja. I have followed up the itenary of Asiwaju. Honestly, he will certainly have broken down if he is sick as presented
RockHard: Op you beat me to it. Was just about to open a thread about the video. Wind don blow, we don see fowl yansh. Upon all the noises about Obidients shutting down Lagos. I actually have another video that shows Obi and others on stage.
And you will hear Lagos is in the bag 70% for Obi These neighbour always overestimate themselves and they will tell you they own Lagos Look at the house fellowship meeting they refer to as mega rally and they will tell you that they shut down Lagos. Noise makers They need to know how other people see them and be humble We no be their mate any day
I could remember that Peter Obi came to power on the 17th March 2006 while the famous Onitsha crisis, which led to the killings of Northerners, occurred on the 21st and 22nd day of February 2006. That was almost a month gap.
Our first meeting with Obi also coincided with his first visit to the town; all arrangements were done to receive the first citizen of the state and also to explain our predicament to him at that moment. As refugees in Army Barrack Onitsha, we took him from the barrack round to the affected areas of the crisis such as Bida Road central to see some houses burnt within the area, and then to Oba of yoruba house and palace that was razed down along sokoto and ifejika streets, then down to bridge head market by the express, where all Northern markets were burnt down. There alone, more than 100 lives were lost and properties worth billions destroyed.
The following businesses were destroyed and burnt completely
1. Goat Market (Northerners)
2. Cola market (Which comprised of North and
Western interest)
3.Beans and Rice Market (Northerners) 4. Onions Market (Northerners)
5. Vegetables oils (Northerners)
6. Arewa parks which comprises of Maiduguri, Bauchi, Gombe, Sokoto, Yola, Kano, Mubi and many Northern states.
7. Osogbo park (Yorubas)
But to our greatest surprise, the first thing that came out of Peter Obi's mouth was, "you people should tell your people to also stop killing our people in the North." It was like a bomb! Everyone was shocked We couldn't believe a whole Chief Executive Officer of a state who should be for everybody, a "Governor so to say, could utter such a disgusting and an intolerant statement in the public! We all were disappointed and dispersed without even murmuring a word. Peter Obi sent a chill down our spines!
The rest was history; Peter Obi didn't even feel any pity for the lives lost nor the properties destroyed, not to talk of giving out any form of relief materials or compensation of any sort to the biggest community of settlers in the state.
Secondly, at a point in his Administration, Peter Obi decided to eject and takeover those markets mentioned earlier from the Northerners. These are markets which the Northerners had been in possession since 1974 when they were relocated from Ochanja market by the then military government. The Hausa community, thereby, rejected his moves to take them over without any provision or replacement for their original place of business.
To our surprise, Governor Peter Obi ordered the deployment of Military men, who invaded the market and took no prisoners. They shot and killed 7 (Seven) innocent market men among the protesters.
It's not easy to suddenly lose our places of income and sources of living without any replacement. So, we petitioned the matter to the office of the Sultan of Sokoto who in response sent two Emirs, that of Suleja and the Etsu of Nupe, to appease him, but even all that brought no fruitful solution. The governor stood his ground and refused to provide an alternative land for the Markets.
Eventually, his Eminence, the Sultan of Sokoto, had to visit the governor to beg on our behalf solely for him to provide another place for the continuation of our businesses, but 'the almighty Peter Obi refused to change position all because we are NORTHERNERS not IGBOS.
Because we are Northerners, Obi felt we didn't deserve a land for our businesses in Anambra State. In fact, in one of our meeting with him he openly said to us and I quote, "you people are foreigners here, therefore you have no right to our land" - a clear case of an intolerant leader. Obi's discrimination and hatred to us clearly defined him as a bigot to the core. Peter Obi forgot that a day like today will come when he will need northerners for his political ambition, he forgot that there are over a Million Igbos of Anambra state origin who are scattered all over the North living comfortably with their families and businesses. So, for Obi's insensitivity and high-handedness, all the traders relocated to Asaba with their families and businesses.
NOW TELL ME, How would Peter Obi treat Northerners if he is elected the President of Nigeria? WORST OF IT ALL, Peter Obi said emphatically that he hated seeing Hausas at the point of entering of Anambra state from Delta state. What a bigot!!
Thirdly, towards the tail end of Peter Obi's administration which coincided with the anniversary of the creation of Anambra state, we were invited by the organizers of the program who is an igbo lady residing in the North. But while making a point on the need to foster unity among Nigerians and suggested that an exchange program should be established where young people from the state should be send to Kano in Exchange for Kano Young Vocational trainees, Peter Obi quickly took over the microphone and said, there is no comparison between the North and the East not to talk of sharing skills and knowledge. He also added that such comparison is like asking China to come to Nigeria to learn Manufacturing business. He made this assertion in the public and I could remember it was the then governor of River state, Chief Rotimi Amaechi, that chaired the occasion.
Moreover, sometimes in 2018, an Igbo Bar man in Niger drive GRA Onitsha invited a Hausa Man to be selling Suya meat in front of his bar just to attract more customers to his business. The distance of the bar is about 300 metres away from Peter Obi's house, but to our greatest shock, Peter Obi invited DSS from Awka to forcibly eject the Hausa Man from the place. His offence - he was a Hausa Man from the North who should not be seen in the GRA. It took the intervention of the landlord and Arewa leaders in the the state to stop Peter Obi from perfecting his illegal motives against the Hausa Man. It should also be of note that Peter Obi equally forcefully deported people of Northern extraction back to Kaduna during his tenure as governor of Anambra state.
Now, what will Peter Obi tell people of the North if he visits any of the Northern States during campaign? How will he be able to prove that he will be a leader for all, going by his notorious antecedent?
In view of all the above Peter Obi's divisive kind of leadership and his unprovoked notorious actions against the North and Northerners, I make bold to say that he is not worthy of a single VOTE from any patriotic Northerner ('Yan Arewa) and Westerners (Yorubas). Obi is an extremely ethnic bigot and a personality very dangerous to be trusted with the highest office of the land. No matter who Peter Obi takes as his Presidential running Mate from the North, we shouldn't trust him.
At least I remember the forceful deportation of the Northern extraction I also remembered the sacking of all Igbos working in the Anambra civil service that are not from Anambra Today he talks sanctimoniously. This is someone who never conducted a LGA election in his 8 years as governor. Highly undemocratic but today gives a different impression The governor that had the record of hosting the longest strike in Nigeria but wants to critisice FG today on strike issues When he is presented today as a Messiah, I always wondered if this is not the Peter Obi of Anambra who was very unliberal in ideology Some one who Government favored a set of Christian faith over another Christian faith....
This was someone that claimed that age comes with experience in governance defending Atiku in 2019 but 4 years later singing a different song Someone who wants the youth to take over their country but goes to seek endorsement from the same political and corrupt elites just as every other politician will do This is someone that could not stay true to the vow he made to Apga but jumped ship to PDP and jumped ship to Labour few months ago after spending nine years in PDP and suddenly has the nerves to speak ill of PDP he couldn't leave based on principle but for political gain Peter Obi is the biggest evil among the 4 contestant, the least competent and the fullest...he wins the hypocritical award of the century Those who campaign for him are either ignorant, bigot or mischievous
SmartPolician: How can a full-grown man be only interested in who gathers more crowds?
Is that what he has reduced activism to?
Besides, we know how APC and PDP gather rent their crowds.
If the crowd can be rented, then you better stay out of the contest because that same crowd that submitted themselves to gathering against their conscience like the Abians people today will never resist vote buying on election day. It's an.indication of how cheap and low moral Abian people are. Please don't quote. I am just drawing reference from the comment I qioted
Honestly I had overestimated Peter Obi This is a poor outing I swear, this is lower than my expectation Chai!!! With what happened today, if Peter Obi score 10% in Lagos, he should thank God Let's stop the self deception....it's a failed outing
gidgiddy: The question many people dont ask is why are these gunmen attacking mainly the security forces, Police and Army?
Prof Dora Akunyili's husband is a millitary man I guess. So even with the number of civilians that have been killed, you still manage to post this heartless comment
festacman: A very big lie told to either make Atiku drop more money or for clout chasing.
Let's face it. Why should any politician offer this much money and gift to a singer who is not even an active politician with active supporters but just mere fans of his talent.
By the way, the mentioned amount will fetch hundreds of assured votes from remote communities?
Big lie from a bigmouth, period.
And you can see the responses as if they were there. This is a very red lie. I was offered 700m by Atiku but how can I support a special purpose vehicle fraudster who is out to sell Nigeria
Yaribanzaonic: They are celebrating crowd in a place Atiku has like 80% votes. But are ashamed of talking about how Peter OBI has shutdown Lagos.
Please go to Lagos threads and cry an Ocean. Thiefnubuu has Jogodo!!!
Obi no shut down any Lagos apart from creating nuisances through uneccessary noise on the street of Lagos. The crowd in kebbi is far bigger than the one in Lagos right now but no one is making a nuisance out of it.
Eriokanmi: Tinubu will lose Lagos for the first time since 1999 and sadly, at the time when he's coming out to run for president. I wish Fashola or Osinbajo had contested instead. He'd realise how farther the people can go ahead of money.
Before you attack me...
There are Lagosians and non Lagosians who are predominantly PDP members and would still vote PDP, same as lovers of kwakwanso.
There are also Lagosians and non Lagosians that would vote LP
No block vote for the apc here as it didn't happen in 2019. It would even be worse this time for the apc... now that eyes have become so clear . A ti gbon
Imagine a Pandora president, a grass cutting scam sgf and a convicted fraudster as ministers of information in the person of doyin okupe and a failed lawyer turned actor as agf in the person of Kenneth Okonkwo
shineeye1: Emefiele is a Wizard. May God punish him and his evil generation for taking a people on a torture cruise. The impish idiot did not know of supply constraint before gleefully imposing a hellish deadline on old note usage? The wizard also did not know how to make a U-turn and reverse his misguided missiles when it became clear that supply constraints was inevitable? Even up till now, that his foolish policy has become common knowledge, this diminutive devil is averse to relieving the populace from the unnecessary, ill-motivated adventure of currency deadline!
Evil intention that backfired and potrayed as one who is grossly incompetent
lx3as: I now have so much trust in Tinubu; what he saw sitting down Obi and Atiku didn't see it standing up, only their selfish interests without single empharty for the masses. They will simply lead Nigeria to destruction.

Honest Nigerians can see through the lines. Tinunu' was not even supposed to be the one to speak against this satanic poorly delivered project yet he damn the consequences while those who are supposed to speak up were clapping for Emefiele and thirty supporters cheering them in deep ignorance. Kudos Jagaban
