Where did he exonerate them? Same gani Adams thet ended up in prison or which opc are u talking about?

Gani going to prison was undertaken by Obasanjo you people love to hate. Tinubu refused to indict him and the OPC of any wrong doing.

Yes over 30 years ago and it was not as populated as it is now. It was not the most populous state then.
So why is Abuja not doing as well? Why is Abuja not as productive as Lagos after 30 years and unprecedented investment and planned development.
We are talking here about a $1.5 billion project
How much money has passed through the hands of the NDDC and governors of the Niger Delta since 1999. How much did Ibori get convicted of laundering? The FG has approved ports in Bonny, Ibom and Warri

We are talking about states gets 13% derivation of $100 plus oil for years . What signature project can we point to in the Niger Delta that any governor can be proud of attracting from the private sector? Even Dangote's refinery and fertilizer plant they could not attract. The reality is the Niger Delta governors lack vision
Fashola deserves a lot of credit for this

Oga no one asked you these long sermon. Was Lagos was or not the Nigerian seat of power at a time?

foryourmindok:
Are you saying that all the people in Northern Nigeria are Obi supporters? It's very possible because they're afraid of Tinubu and his OPC gang of flesh eaters.

No tifnubu supporter has been able to defend that OPC thing. None I've attacked with it have ever say to defend it. Bunch of killers! Blood suckers! They will lose sha. it's a must!

aribisala0:
Lagos State

But it was the seat of power? Abuja of then?

aribisala0:
Lagos STATE was not the FCT

What wag it then, when Dodan barracks was the seat of power?

Sunday2021:
those people are there because of their son who is contesting for member house of assembly, not for Peter Obi.
Many of them don't even know who is obi, if you mentioned Peter obi in some local government of plateau state they will think you are talking about Palm oil seller.

What is the structure again?

Stop crying! Why don't you rather cry for Atiku! I will waste that vote on Peter Obi in Jesus name! My wife will waste hers on him. My parents and all my friends will waste their votes on him.

From my side alone he's sure if 20 votes and on God we'll waste them. Amin!

From Peter Obi is inconsequential, to "please wait your time is not now"

Structureless party don dey worry people with structure?

Where are the tifnubu pigs please?

ElSudani:
How can you folks even think Peter Obi can win? Sowore will get more votes than him.

OK cry again... Keep crying! Neeexxxt!!

ElSudani:
The man who invested $20 million and the investment is now worth barely $5 million.
Not to talk of investing that money in a company in which your family has interest.
If he did that in most of the the countries he likes to reference, he will be sitting in jail right now not running for president.

Cry! Keep crying! Cry some more. Las Las you go dey alright

Thinkam:
Peter Obi witness.

Make una calm down, Peter Obi will drop out of the race latest August..

2023 is strictly between two failures, Atiku or Tinubu.

Not going to happen

The question is, reset Nigeria from what? From who? Their party? LMAO!!

helinues:
I doubt If Tinubu would be attending.

Did we expect less? You want him to go shake all over the place and sh1t himself?

The same REC who's frustrating people's efforts to register? Same one who hides PVCs belonging to other ethnicities? Same person who's asking people for one dirty Lagos ID card before they can register?

Well, change is Obi-diently coming and our country must be good!

Yamiriflathead:
The North Remembers

Yeah the north remembers how tifnubu used the OPC to kill innocent northerners in Lagos in 2002. We can all be mad and we'll see who will lose Hahahaha. Tifnubu when dem already hate like shit for that north!

So he has finally gotten to this ? You people can no longer sell tifnubu's candidacy on issues but tribalism? I love it! The campaign is obviously dying Already!

ThatFairGuy1:
He's actually a pretentious liar.

He's going nowhere

Cry today, cry tomorrow, cry forever.
Peter is your next president! He's inconsequential but y'all can't keep him out of your mouths!

KnowAll:
Saw video clip where Peter Obi is talking to Nigerians in America, he was saying hold your LG Chairman when u see him don’t celebrate him. Hold your Governor don’t celebrate him. That d FG gives each LG 100 million every month.

But come to think of it, is it not hypocrisy that when he was Governor for 8 years, he did not conduct LG elections in his case there would be no LG chairman to hold.

So what happened to d LG funds when he was Governor. B4 Peter Obi throw stones in d market place he must remember that he too lived in a glass house.

Abi I lie,

Saying Peter Obi didn't conduct local government elections in his 8 years of office would be a lie because he actually conducted one in 2014 before he left office.

That said let's go. Peter Obi came in through the courts, after a 3 year legal pursuit to reclaim his mandate. It was a hard won historical victory that changed the political cycle in Nigeria. Before that, his rigged in predecessor who happens to currently be in the ruling APC government, ran the state for 3 years, having been sworn in in May 29th 2007.

Peter would later get sworn into power in March 17, 2006 after the courts kicked out Ngige in March 15, 2006. Peter settled into office and the rigors of office began. However on November 2nd of that same 2006, his 100% opposition house of assembly impeached him and his deputy was sworn in. H.E Peter Obi was reinstated by the Court of Appeal on February 9, 2007 and he again took over the reins of power. Kindly watch the time line

I'm 2007, new elections were Conducted and again INEC edged him out, not even regarding him as a participant. The election threw up Andy Uba but was nullified after Mr Peter went to court stating his tenure was still running till 2010, having been sworn into power in 2006. That's why Anambra has staggered election calendar.

Meanwhile through these intrigues and power play and distractions, the ANSIEC was dead! Totally dead by that time. Peter Obi had to resort to use departmental heads of service as interim LG administrators. Note: career civil servants, were used not care-Takers committee of politicians and if you'd be honest with yourself, you'd know trying to organize and revive the electoral body of the state then, with the high spate of insecurity, debts and all in the midst of court room runs, should not be a priority.

This is becoming an epistle so I'll summarize. Peter Obi would later bring stability and sanity to Anambra state, inaugurate the new ANSIEC board and conduct elections before leaving office in 2014.

Now it would surprise you to know that ONLY PETER OBI AS GOVERNOR HAS EVER CONDUCTED LOCAL GOVERNMENT ELECTIONS IN ANAMBRA STATE. Obiano didn't do so through out his tenure. But the man Peter Obi made sure he did that to keep to his promises of doing that in his tenure.

That's the information you need. Sorry it was a long read.

Frigga13:
OBi is an IPOB package scam ...

Obi will lose Anambra his own very state ... if they IPOB satanic organization don’t go calling others saboteurs and beheading .

OBi did absolutely nothing in anambra state

No local government
No infrastructural development ..
nothing in ground today ... as Obi legacy in Anambra .. even as we speak

Let the take pictures and upload ..

As for his achievements.. they will write espitles and end up with Bukum

It will be head for head ... in east
Especially in Anambra .. if IPOB and their bingos wan try violence

They will get what they want .. even before and after election

Power to the people
Not some evil satanic organization hiding under Obi

Try get sense. Atiku no fit kum like this

Jajasabali:
If Lagos is free and fair tinubu no go win
Let's go outside bet

Lagos can never be free and fair. Dem go ready for the urchins when tifnubu go send come scatter polling unit Sha

666Advocate:
Core North will not leave their own Fulani and vote either Yoruba or Igbo

I mean Northwest.

This election will be a learning experience for many people

666Advocate:
South South will vote Atiku.

He gave them Vice.


I'm from South South.

Hahahaha where from SS? I'm an Urhobo from Delta state. We don't give a hoot about okowa or his schemes to be VP.

The only person we probably hate more than okowa in Delta state today, is probably Uduaghan. Maybe Delta north may give some votes but you see central, South, nothing there oh. So what south south are you talking about?

candidtalk:
Why do some of you like talking and reasoning like toddlers? Everything you turn into "Obi does not bribe" simplistic garbage.

Will Obi lead Nigeria on his own? This is someone who has shown clearly he does not have even minimal ability to lead other men, institutions, political party and administrative processes.

Yet you all somehow think his 'stingy' reputation will miraculously make him fit to lead the very complex Nigeria that actually needs a commander of men and processes not a little boy our NSA, COAS, immigration bosses, border control chiefs etal will undermine at will as happened to GEJ and detrimentally for Nigeria.

Someone like Tinubu has earned the right to lead and be respected by even the most cabalistic of men. He has mentored the greatness of political platforms and the political election win of many individuals while Obi has never concerned himself with such vitally important endeavors.

OP is totally correct. Only the gullible and ignorant will think Obi has a chance. Those who mobilize and win elections for candidates will never back or work for Obi. Simple as that.

As an example, PMB had never won a single SW States in all his previous attempts to be President before 2015. Yet with Tinubu working for him, Buhari cleared all SW States bar Ekiti that resolute Fayose won for GEJ and PDP.

That is the cold and brutal reality of Nigerian politics no Obidient' rhetoric and youth "third force" noise can change.

At the end of the day, let all Nigerians go out and vote who they want but we must all bear in mind the fact that Nigerian youths are not actually excluded from participating in politics by the 'old boys' as they claim.

Rather it is the ignorance of Nigerian youths, disinterest in 'learning the trade', their unhelpfully blind idealism, complete lack of pragmatic thinking and their foolish refusal to behave like Romans when in Rome that has excluded them from powerful engagement in politics.

Nigerian youth 'play' themselves and thus miss out on offices and roles that will see them making the changes they want to see from inside via usage of powerfully entrenched platforms like APC and PDP.


I am talking about you and others who speak in ways that shows you have no second or third gear and can never ever think outside the box.

Write another epistle. If you need someone to mobilize you on who to vote before you vote, perhaps you will go and be eating 3 square meals at his side too after elections?

Ndibuna:
Lmao, that's a lazy and foolishman analysis. Where and where make up North

I was about to ask him that. This boy thinks the north are the politicians running around there. Tifnubu is hated in the north, only next to buhari.

A man who used the OPC to conduct a pogrom on northerners during his time in government and justified it. Well it's social media sha so continue your false takes

No wahala life is all about learning.
The useless op trying to pitch religions against themselves wax saying blasphemy. These tifnubu dogs una go taya!

Totilopussylick:
Kill them all

I still wonder why unknown gunmen can't lay down their weapons since obi is about to become president of Nigeria

They are common criminals and I don't believe they speak for the Igbo people!
