,DIE HARD CORRUPTION AND APATHY FOR THE FUTURE THE ONLY REASON ANYBODY WILL PICK OLD CORRUPT TINUBU OVER OBI

That’s a big fat lie. Tinubu has not been found to have stolen money. Obi stole security votes and laundered it to Lagos. Peter Obi is a third class graduate, Tinubu is a first class graduate. Tinubu transformed Lagos, Obi did not transform Anambra. The difference is clear.

PrinceOfLagos:
This man is everything wrong with Nigeria , corrupt and shameless

Some of you are so gullible that you could be sold as slaves. Tinubu has no criminal records, yet he was involved in gun and drug crime, his assets were seized, and you believe that? If he has no criminal records, why is he still being questioned in every visit to US? A lot of lies concocted in this fake story. The US government says he has no criminal records in US, he travels to US frequently, even visited at home by US ambassador, yet he was a drug baton? Lol. In 1993 the court case was determined. And in 1994 his money was confiscated, yet he was leading NADECO and was bankrolling Nadeco officials including Wole Soyinka at the time? What kind of barefaced lies are these? He was a senator before going on exile during the military era. When did he have time to do drug running? I can’t believe that intelligent people cannot forensically examine the facts to detect the factual errors and fabrications in it.

Firstorderwizard:
1. Nigerians do not deserve him. Let the looting continue and let the suffering continue.
2. Secondly and most importantly, Obi is a stumbling block to the quickening disintegration of this contraption.
He will seek to unite the country which is only a temporary relief that will delay the complete break up of this failed British experiment.

Obi is already a made man. His generations future are already secured. Let him not bother about Nigerians. They're born to suffer

Pure rubbish. Obi is not as rich as Tinubu. Tinubu made money in corporate world, Obi used government money for family business. Obi was there when Hausa and Yoruba were killed in Anambra, their market stalks burnt and all he could say was “why are Hausa killing Igbo in the north?

PrinceOfLagos:
As EFCC or as ICPC official or as Chief justice of the federation or as Nairaland founder?

2023 presidential election is between Alhaji Atiku abubakar and Peter Obi.

Others without certificates stand no chance

Peter a 3rd class graduate after 10 years of schooling?

Can we stop this madness of requiring primary school certificate in this jet age of AI and Rocket Science? Why should people with higher qualifications be bedevilled with searching for primary school leaving certificate which is quite irrelevant and outdated in order to secure political and public service appointments?

LeoDeKing:
What nonsense?

Is it that the fed govt is so deaf that it didn't hear what Ekweremadu planned doing to a naive boy?

Just getting set to waste our tax payers money on a useless idiot.

I know that Obi supporters will wail on this matter. Imagine these horrible people being happy for the travails of their kinsman? While those who don’t relate to him are the ones supporting him. And they are becoming enemies to their kinsman just because he said Obidient will not win this election in igboland? Blood is no more thicker than water where politics is involved. Too bad!!!

true2god:
OLUWOLE LETTER! Business Center commendation letter. No seal or stamp.

Why don’t you give them a call to verify the letter? Is it only wailing you know how to do?

A girl had begged me to stay in my room as she was stranded with accommodation. We stayed together in same room for many months, nothing happened. Mind you I was sex starved after being away from wify for almost 3 years. It’s difficult but possible. I am a human being with blood running in my veins but will power won.

Subsidywise20:
Well, I am not obidient, and don't want to vote for him

But the power sector was doing no better under government either.

Also, the reason why the power sector is not working is because government sets their prices(below what it costs to produce one kwh of power). This does not let them make enough of a profit, and as a result, the sector is chronically broke. (unlike the GSM sector, where MTN, Airtel, Glo and 9 mobile can set their price )

There are more complex issues than that. The contractors don’t have money and they are not investing in the system, yet they think they can make quick money from customers to finance the projects. That’s why they charge arbitrarily and refused to provide pre-paid metres. The government cannot sack them without incurring huge costs. The alternative is to use government power to disband them. But that can lead to lack of trust in government by future investors.

Issues that have been laid to rest several years ago. Some of these lawyers were probably not borne then. Tinubu graduated with 1st class from a reputed university in US while Peter Obi graduated with 3rd class after 10 years for a 4 year phylosophy course. Who is better to be our president?

*Were you tempted to stay back in the US after your studies?*

To be honest with you, yes. I was lucky when I got to Chicago State University. I entered the university with honours from the Richard Daley College, because I got credit in majority of the Accounting courses.
After the first term, I was one of the candidates on the Dean’s list and my professor, Joe Jesse, commended me for my hard work, class participation and brilliance. He said that I would be lucky if I could keep my activities and brilliant results up till the end of the term. He didn’t say more or in what form the luck would manifest.
At the end of the term, and still on the Dean’s list, Professor Jesse came around to inform me that he would employ me to manage the Accounting laboratory for the institution. He gave the letter of employment to the dean of the faculty. The following week, I was called upon to take up employment as a tutor in the institution because I was very good at Mathematics and Accounting. I met Tunde Badejo in the school; he was a year ahead of me. But I told him (we took a bet) that we would graduate the same year and he didn’t believe. Later, when I was given a scholarship to become a tutor, I took the letter to Tunde Badejo and said: ‘See, the school is paying my tuition.’ He was amazed. That was how I became a tutor, with my tuition being paid. Tunde Badejo majored in Mathematics, and having been challenged, his performance got better the following semester and he also became a Maths tutor in the Department of Mathematics and Computer Science. I was challenged and severely under pressure to keep up the grade as each semester rolled by, because if my grades should drop I would lose the scholarship. It was quite challenging and in the end, I graduated top of my class and I was recruited as an Accounting major. There were big accounting firms then. Touche was number nine. I was recruited. And I still got other job offers. Then there were eight big accounting firms in the United States, including Arthur Andersen , Arthur Young, Ernst and Whinney, Peat Marwick and Mitchell, Deloitte and others. Out of the big eight, five of them offered me jobs and that was school recruitment–right on the campus.

I was on the Dean’s list; I was in line for the award for the overall best counting student as well as that of the university scholar’s award. With that, the big firms would continue to woo you. Despite the five job offers, I was equally offered employment by IBM and others. Professor Jesse called me and advised that I should not be arrogant. He asked that I remove my name from the career placement centre because, according to him, the more they saw my grades, the more I would be sought after. He said that might hinder other accounting graduates from being recruited and that the faculty wanted as many accounting graduates as possible to be recruited by the big companies. So I went and removed it. Usually, there was a benchmark for recruitments by the big professional accounting firms and they didn’t go beneath that. I got an offer of $20,000, with travelling allowances and all that. It was big money for me at the time.
But when Arthur Young saw the money I was offered, they offered an additional $3,000. My adviser told me to consider an offer that would make me function effectively in my country, particularly given that the country is blessed with crude oil. I wondered what I would be coming back to do. The career placement officer called me again and asked me what I wanted to do. I said they just spoke to me from my department.
Unlike what happens here, universities in America prepare the students for the future; how to dress, how to face job interviews. The third day after that, Deloitte, Haskins and Sells, now Deloitte and Touche Consulting Group, gave me another offer. They said they were not just going to hire me, but develop me. They asked me to take the salary I was being offered or forget about the job. I went back to Professor Jesse and said: ‘Look at what these people are offering, I would rather go to Arthur Andersen because they were offering to pay more’. But he said that I should not. He said he had always advised me that my career and professional development were more important. He said Delloite had clients like General Motors, Procter and Gamble, National Oil and worked with Aramco Exxon, etc. He said I should consider that my country has crude oil and I might want to return someday. He said I should consider a firm with clients in anufacturing and oil sectors than Arthur Andersen, which only dealt with financial institutions and banks.

I took to his advice. I resumed work at Deloitte training school in June 1979. By April 1979, when I was graduating, I had gotten my future charted. And that was the greatest thing I achieved in America.
Tunde Badejo was still looking for a job. As a honours student, I was there at the high table with the Dean, President of the college and so on, while the rest of the graduands were on the lower platform. So, when they called my friend, Tunde Badejo’s name, he refused to get up because they mispronounced his name and called him ‘Tunde Badeho’. He refused to get up. I was laughing at him from the high table and was saying: ‘You see, I told you we would graduate at the same time.’ I later stood from where I was seated and whispered to the event handler that his name is Badejo and not Badeho. It was not until they called the name correctly that he stood up.

*Why did you opt to study Accounting?*

Sincerely, it was accidental. It was the university placement. I was good in Mathematics and business courses. In fact, if I were to choose a career for myself, I would have chosen marketing. I know Tunde was placed in the Mathematics department also by the university. I came in with A grades and I had nothing less than A+ in Accounting and Statistics.

*How did you get into Mobil?*

At Deloitte and Touche, I chose to travel more than 80 per cent of my working years there. And that is because if a staff chose to travel, he would make more money because he would get travel allowances. That got me into National Oil, which became the Joint Venture Partner of Aramco Oil in Saudi Arabia, which is like the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation. We had gone there to set up their accounting and auditing system. It was while on that service that I got my financial break. When I returned to the United States, my employers gave me a huge bonus, which instantly turned me into a millionaire.

*How much was that?*

The bonus was $850,000, before taxes. My salaries were also being paid into the bank and I was not touching them. At the time, my salary deposits in the bank had risen to about $1.8 million.

*You didn’t freak out?*

No. This is because I had a strong grasp of financial matters. I was happy. I bought a house from the money and invested the rest in the US. I was living well. I was living in one of the most affluent neighbourhoods in the south of Chicago.

Strongdickfresh:
Let's not be in hurry to make decision that will make Nigerians experience more hardship. Our collective concern should gear toward removing APC, Buhari and Tinubu from power.

We must work collectively and tirelessly to ensure APC/Tinubu does not win the 2023 presidential election. Our major concern is to stop APC/Tinubu from becoming the head of affairs in Nigeria come 2023.

You will all fail in shaa Allah. Tinubu will win with a landslide. You will all be shocked.

4/5 people mobilised by Igbo traders in kaduna. We have seen your hands. You shall know the truth on Election Day. See how they are checking their backs to make sure nobody is coming to lynch them lol.

Many of the Peter Obi wailers here are just starkly ignorant or completely mischievous or both. Peter Obi advised the sale to GENCOs and Discos who had no money to rescue the system. They made laws to bind the hands of Buhari and Fashola to prevent them from being sacked. How is that the problem of Buhari or Fashola? Peter Obi and his PDP crooks collected bribes and recommended insolvent people to purchase our national assets so as to kill them. And the same Peter Obi is complaining about no light. He is a crook and he is a scammer. We don’t need these crooks as leaders in NIGERIA.

PaChukwudi44:
Bros did Tinubu commit perjury? Did he attend the primary and secondary schools he declared under oath in 1999? That is the bone of contention not Chicago certificate

Go and ask the Supreme Court!!! Sue him for perjury.

FERNANDEZISBACK:
Y'all even have the time in responding to Dumbos who keep asking silly dumb questions...
I mean how can you be trolling this same dude just for declaring his ambition..vile words.. insults ain't the way to promote ya candidate..so sick..

I can bet ya..with this information some Dumbos will keep disturbing the whole place with their unnecessary noise..

Meanwhile their dumb leader graduated with a third class after schooling for record 10 years for a BA degree that’s meant to for 4 years. That dullard is who they are all running about with, wanting to make him president over Nobel laureate and professors.

GoooodHardDick:
He didn't go to school but wants to rule Nigeria. That druggie's brain should be checked. This is exactly Why Nigeria needs peter Obi to rescue this country from this corrupt thieves

In a sane society, the likes of Tinubu and Atiku wouldn't even be allowed to contest in any public office at all.. Nigerians says NO to Old cargos!!!!!.

Peter Obi is a scam, a drug baron and a dullard who came out with 3rd class in phylosophy after 10 years in school for a 4 year course. What a shame to humanity. He will never be president.

He does not have to show certificate. That’s what Supreme Court judgement says. He just needs to prove he went to primary school. And Nigerian constitution is very backward. We should be demanding for the highest, not the lowest certificate. I have been to the highest levels of learning, yet I could not remember obtaining my primary school certificate, and nobody has ever asked me for that. They need to amend the constitution to align with modernity.

BlazinGlory40:
Dude provide proof and don’t run on propaganda. Do you know that OBJ and GEJ didn’t win NW and NE against buhari yet they still won? So relax and drink cold water.

Let’s wait and see!!!

Foolishbuhari:
Then why did he exonerate them? You see you people ehn, there's enough dirt to dig up on your sick candidate. We will publish all the panel findings on OPC and tifnubu's complicity, translate it into hausa, and propagate it in the north

Empty threats!!! You have nothing to dig out. Go ahead.

OfoIgbo:
Christians are reading and seeing how you Muslims and anti-christian people are trying to undermine the only Christian candidate of a major movement in the coming election.

Christians may take this personally and punish Kwankwaso, Tinubu and Atiku.

Christians remember how Muslim terrorists have been killing Christians in their place of worship, and now this assault on Obi, to ensure that Christians are crushed politically in Nigeria

You are talking arrant nonsense!!! I am not here playing any religious card. I do not like Atiku because his boss Obasanjo has stated that he is fantastically corrupt. Neither do I support Kwakanso because he has not transformed Kano like Tinubu did for Lagos. Tinubu is also married to an RCCG pastor and that should have been a sour point if I am religiously inclined. I am only supporting Tinubu because he has the best records of past achievements. That’s all I care for. And talking of terrorists, those devils have killed more Muslims than Christians in NIGERIA. They have killed Muslims in large numbers during Friday Jumuah service in Kano and other places. So you cannot cry more than the bereaved Muslims. We don’t consider them as Muslims because a Muslim must not kill innocent people. You cannot use sentiments to bring Peter Obi in through the backdoor. He is a scam. Look for another good Christian leader and we will support him. I supported Awolowo and my father used to take me to his campaigns. We are not bigots like you.

:"I met Bola Ahmed Tinubu first time when we shortlisted his name at Mobil Oil. He appeared for the interview and we scrutinised his credentials. We referred all his credentials to the awarding institutions and we found out at Mobil that they were genuine and authentic. He would never have been employed by our organisation if any, no matter how minute, of his credentials was found wanting.

"We employed him as senior Auditor. Few years later, Tinubu carried out a very comprehensive audit like never before which indicted many Directors including the MD of Mobil, and this led to the suspension of the MD. The company now needed a new Treasurer who will renew the battered image of the company which came about as a result of Tinubu’s Audit, so we the remaining Directors thought that only the man who did the audit was in best position to help the company out. And he was appointed as the Treasurer.

"Few years later, he came to meet me that he would want to resign from the company to join politics so that he can serve his people and humanity. He was already looking very unstoppable. That was how he left Mobil and joined Politics."

PIUS AKINYELURE
Tinubu’s Boss at Mobil EXXON.

Foolishbuhari:
Do you know it was tifnubu who master minded OPC killing of Northerners in Lagos in 2002? He justified it then and said he didn’t believe in one Nigeria!

Tifnubu is a Yoruba agenda which is why they have nothing else to campaign by but "emi lo Kan". Nigerians be wise o!

You are borne liar. Tinubu never identified with OPC. That’s why Ganiu Adams aligned with PDP government.

Prince081:
Not interested.
We have the numbers.
We cannot have 16 straight years run by a section of the country. Nobody is a second class citizen here.

Where’s the numbers? In your dream. How many obi supporters do you have in the north?

ERCROSS:
We need to see the real thread. Prophecies are not usually this detailed. This is clearly a case of HTML editing, not even Photoshop

I was almost saying that. Fake prophecy. The truth is Tinubu did not buy his way with most of the delegates. His popularity won the primary. This alone tells me it’s a fake prophecy from Peter Obi wailer. Lol!!!

Those of you asking for proof will get it at the results of elections lol. Peter Obi is a scam. I have always said it. He is the IPOB commander.

tayo60:
A man should really study and know the woman he is marrying . A lady with many body counts before marriage can't never be faithful, and moreso, women pretend a lot. Do an undercover investigation about her from friends, neighbors etc before you marry her. So also, a woman who fears God cannot cheat in marriage.

Most women tell lies about body count now. They know you will form an opinion immediately they mention > 10 men, then all hope is lost. Yes I agree completely that the fear of God is still highly important in their behaviour. Because they know that God is watching if their husband or other people are not there to watch. There’s definitely no fear of God in any lady that cheats.

tobby98:
A northerner first is their agenda…they have in them better options like Atiku and Kwankwaso.

And as for the video, you can click on the link up there

We shall see. It’s a matter of time.

Only God decides whom He wants. Not IPOB wailers. We shall see whom God wants soon.

No northerner is voting Peter Obi. These wailers should just go and sit down.

tobby98:
Yesterday, Prof Zulum urged Borno state indigene to vote for Tinubu APC in the next coming election, the response he got from them was "bamuso, "we don't want him", uba nka, uba nka; your father, your father......" Real revolution is imminent. Get your PVC, Peter Obi is the answer to some of our problems, Labour party is the party. A new Nigeria is possible.

Liar!!! Where is your evidence? Is it Atiku they will vote for? Or is it Peter Obi? You are a borne liar.

Tinubu is an EBORA (jinn). Nobody wins against a spirit. Peter Obi Pandora wailers must be ready to bang their heads against the rock in this election.
