The guy ran away to avoid donating money for Ekiti election, when it's tym for Osun he'll travel to Morocco to learn fish farming
We're not interested in governorship but presidential election. It wouldn't cost any governor a thing to defect to Labour party later. They should concentrate on winning their states first.

Before you can win governorship, you must have had a complete structure at the state level from the grassroots, winning some LGAs, councillorship, etc cos these were the people who wouid work and campaign for your winning. Mimiko had no single LG Chair talkless of labour party winning councilorship. Despite this, he won governorship under labour party, defeating the ruling pdp candidate and AD/ACN candidate in person of Mr Adegoroye whom tinubu personally campaigned for and spent billions of naira.

Mimiko had the majority on his side. When you have the people, you can win any general election. Guys, pls leave obi alone. We're loving his moves. Continue supporting same old people who have pushed you to your present situation. Time waits for nobody. Una go soon old finish and be blaming awon ota idile kan for failure in life. Can ekiti civil servants confront fayemi for building a private university in Ghana with their money, now that ASUU is on strike? Its the choice they all made.

The choice you make today will go a long way in determining your future. Enough said.

BEFORE YOU GET CARRIED AWAY PLEASE READ ANOTHER SIDE OF P.O�

Felix Brokadenero

READ WITH AN OPEN MIND:

Chief Willie Obiano has revealed that contrary to the sanctimonious posturing of his predecessor, former Governor Peter Obi, the state was saddled with a huge domestic debt of N127 billion when he left office in March 2014.

The N127 billion debt came mostly from the 101 road contracts that the former governor hurriedly awarded at the dying minutes of his regime without making any provision whatsoever for them in order to create problems for his administration from the very first day.

He mentioned the last minute employment of 6000 workers without provision for their welfare as well as the various hotels and independent power projects which he had no plans to complete.

Obiano’s revelation came on the heels of the growing inconsistencies in the figures being thrown up by Obi which have left many discerning observers wondering just how much the former governor actually left behind.

Obi’s sudden volte-face from his earlier declaration that he handed N75 billion cash to his successor and his declaration at the flag off of the PDP campaign in Onitsha yesterday that the actual amount he handed over was N48,626 billion.

While delivering an address that has been mostly dismissed by political analysts as suicidal, Obi was caught on camera saying “when I was leaving this place, we left in savings N26bn. We set aside for important projects, N23,629 billion. If you put the two together, it will come to N48, 626 billion.”

For instance, Obi’s reportage of the 16.5% equity stake in emenite, a fibre cement roof and ceiling manufacturing company set up by the premier of the old Eastern Region, Dr M.I. Okpara, which was shared between the five states that made up the as part of the trumpeted investments he had handed over to Obiano is nothing but pure fraud.

Observers also complained that it speaks volumes about Obi’s vaunted integrity to realize that he also reported that he had invested the sum of N3.5 billion in Interfact Beverages Limited, when in reality what he invested was N1.4 billion only.

This followed Obiano’s announcement that his administration would soon revise the discrepancy to reflect the actual equity stake of the state in the company.

Other dead bodies buried in Obi’s handover note include the N9 billion involuntary investment in the Nigerian Independent Power Project, conceived in 2004 by the Obasanjo regime which the Federation Account was charged to fund on behalf of the 36 states. One wonders how this investment could have found its way into Obi’s phantom savings that he handed over to Obiano in cash.

Other components of Obi’s “famous” N75 billion cash handover include the N4 billion estimated value of the land resources of Anambra State on which the oil installations of Orient Petroleum Resources stands which he “cleverly” converted into the state’s shareholding in Orient Petroleum Plc and quickly reported as his own wise investment while in actuality, the only investment in the company when Obi handed over was the N100 million invested by former governor Chris Ngige who also issued the C of O for the land.

Another embarrassing falsehood reported as part of the N75 billion cash handover is the Federal Government refund to Anambra State on the repair of federal roads in the state which stood at N10 billion during Obi’s regime.

It smacks of utter mischief to report this debt owed the state by the Federal Government as a part of the cash handover as the Federal Government has yet to clear the debt while the Obiano regime has responded to more distress calls on federal roads in the state, pushing the debt overhang now to N43.8 billion to date.

Those in support of Muslim-Muslim ticket in APC had claimed that the party does not have strong, popular northern Christian candidates that can get votes in the region for APC during the election.

Why will the Christians in the North region have strong candidate while El Rufai and Co have deminish them all.
Elrufai massively rigged kaduna polls in 2019. You'd hear details when he leaves office.

I may not like buhari over some things but on this, he had always led by example. In those days while he was contesting and losing, he was always coming down south to pick his running mate and a Christian for that matter. There are many sides of buhari which many do not know. Sadly, his ill health affected his government.

Every governor provided good roads. My question is what are his legacies in Anambra? Where are his infrastructure
Please where and where do you know in Anambra? Are you aware that the airport being bragged about by obiano was part of his legacies? I hope you'd not bring up funny more questions. Here in lagos,they've been using a lagos owned airport to campaign since 1999, 4th mainland bridge too. They have started recently again cos election is approaching lol. Between 1999 and now, nuchroom states have built state owned airports and constructed massive bridges. Yet, our airport no get location. A ti gbon oo! Thanks to ambode who did so well in such a short time and we knew the reason why. He didn't allow them steal. But he was punished for that by denying him a reelection. We will never forget that man. May God bless him and his family. Ambode is a man.

Blame obiano for deviating from some of obis legacies. Obi created enabling environment for industries to thrive, which is the big job and responsibilities of every government. Innoson will never forget Peter obi for a moment.

We are Nigerians, not Egyptians.
Yes, but have you been able to also ask yourself why Indonesia humbled themselves and came to Nigeria to study our oil palm plantation? Today, they're the largest palm oil exporters in the world.

Sadly, mko Abiola did same by even visiting liquan yew, the revioitionist, who built Singapore out of nothing , now becoming one of the world powers. He was doing all these in preparation for the huge task ahead. Unfortunately, the military stopped him.

If you're a youth and thinking this way, I feel so sorry for you. Ethnic and religious bigotry won't move this country forward. I was expecting buhari to be doing same after we voted him in 2015 but the man kept attending conferences and be telling us he'd stop for a check up in the UK before coming back...who doesn't know that the UK was his destination, that he was only using the conference to cover up? We don't need such leaders anymore. A ti gbon bayii

Sadly, Atiku isn't known by an average northerner as their own. Malami , the AGF sef don yap am several times that he belongs to Cameroun and not Nigeria so he should go back to his country. Imagine! Even the majority of the votes which got him a second position in 2019 was from the south and courtesy Obi, his then running mate. Northerners massively voted baba for president, while they retained their few pdp governors with their votes instead of voting atiku. He won't get northern support as many may have mistakenly posited. He's also seen as a corrupt man.

they have no manifestos to campaign with apart from their usual old tribalism and tribal card tactics.

But we'll remind them that tribalism won't bring back dollars to at least 400
tribalism won't bring back fuel to 95 naira
tribalism won't send our undergraduates back to school.
tribalism won't fix our security.
tribalism won't develop our economy.

since suffering knows no tribe or religion, since we're suffering together irrespective of our tribe and religion, it's also fair if we get it right together by sending out thieves and those who thinks they can rape Nigeria TURN by TURN.
Enough is Enough!!!

2023 will be the youths vs the criminals

Atiku isn't seen as a true Nigerian by an average northerner. AGF Malami can bear witness to this grin

Atiku is a super corrupt being. Obj can testify to this, in the privatisation of government assets as pdp vice president.

Atiku won so much votes in 2019 due to southern pdp supports. His people voted buhari instead but retained their pdp governors in a few northern states where pdp holds sway.

Peter Obi was catalyst in Atiku's massive support and votes in 2019 election, not the latter's popularity.

It will be a different scenario next year.

Vote Peter obi for a truly progressive Nigeria

acorntree:
Ive been a victim. I never pray that incompetent and corrupt people should continue being in government. Nigeria is a danger zone now, almost everyone now is a fraudster , since most believe they can have their way due to our weak justice system. I voted for sowore last election but now I'm thinking of voting for Peter Obi. I'm Yoruba but I've never experienced the evil been perpetrated during this Buhari regime since I was born. This last 7 yrs is just like hell on earth. If Tinubu win next year election , Nigerians should be ready for war or run bec he is embodiment of corruption. Corruption will be at highest level. He can't tackle banditry, kidnapping bec he will only be there to satisfy the Fulani master, as he will be seeking for 2nd term. He never condemn those Fulani atrocities for once. So while will he now tackled their attricities. I pray 2023 election will not split Nigeria sha.
I'm a yorubaman too from Lagos, from one of the former lagos governor's family. If Tinubu wins up to 40% of votes cast next year in Lag, then he's a super man. The outcome of 2019 general election alone in Lagos will give you a hint and insight into what would happen next year here. Despite the election results being massively padded for over a week in 2019, the margin was still very close.

Come to lagos bro and see PVC revolution at play. Youths are now taking their destiny into their hands and thats how it should be. We learnt Tinubu's thugs were seen all over a particular area, dispersing them cos of the massive turnout for pvc registration/pvc collection. He's already feeling jittery. Awon meloo ni awon jaguda fę le danu? Cos same massive turnout is seen in every local government in Lagos, up till this morning in order to beat the inec deadline, though youths have asked inec for extension. Nothing is happening in our hospital in Lagos alone, not to talk of other states yet, they'd be using affordable Healthcare and 4th mainland bridge to campaign here every 4 years during elections. They've started again but we will stop them next year. 2023 will either make or mar Nigeria's existence

GE came to bid for the whole stuffs but they denied them cos of their eyes on the money in the power sector. Atiku, Tinubu, Abdulsalaam etc no suppose even talk when the issue of power is being discussed. Another 4 years of vote for them is another wahala and wailing. We can't afford that again.

Say what you want...

One thing remains certain..

Politics remains business to this men.

Until the youth take a stand to vote this folks out we will keep going backwards as a nation..

My advice for every Nigerian youth is ...

BRACE YOURSELF...

Prepare for the worst outcomes...

Find a means to make good money either by learning a skill, selling a service or checking out of the company...

Again, this folks don't care for you..

They CARE about ONLY THEIR INTEREST.

Be wise...

CHOOSE YOURSELF FIRST.
Please tell them loudly. Hope they'll listen. If you're a student wasting away at home due to the inept rule of the apc/pdp ( its same people, they only change names) , if you're an unemployed graduate and are supposed to have achieved some things today but still in same position because you've been supporting our greedy politicians every 4 years after collecting peanuts, if you've at one time or the other lost your relation in the cold arms of death in hospitals due to lack of equipment and care, if you've fallen victim of banditry, armed robbery, road accident , kidnapping etc due to bad roads, bad leadership and insecurity, you need to visit a psychiatric hospital this morning and have your brain checked. Something isn't just right with you.

The day you detach your self from these people, the day you drop sentiments, religion and ethnicity when choosing a candidate that truly has the interest of you the masses at heart, that's when your freedom starts. Enough said. I urge you get your pvc and vote Obi. Ire oo
