AcuraZDX: MY CANDID OBSERVATIONS ON THE APC MANIFESTO.
(Please note that I am very much open to any form of debate on my positions on this document).
1. It is thin, peripheral, superficial, drab, unsavory, evasive & vague.
2. Thoughtless projections.
3. The numbers are not adding up or in any way corroborating with existing figures. A good example are the housing & GDP stats.
4. It is not quantitative & written to confuse. 5. There was an attempt to deliberately pose embarrassing figures since it is widely believed that Nigerian voters are generally "illiterates" & real literates don't even vote.
6. An attempt to bamboozle the public with unrealistic promises to increase oil output to 4 million barrels without putting explorations, discoveries, FIDs, capital spendings, new installations into consideration.
Meanwhile, It took us over 20 good years to get from 1.4m in 1987 to 2.5m barrels in 2007.
7. They're projecting an average GDP growth of about 10%. Haba APC!!!
Not even China's GDP growth averaged 10% over a decade.
Average GDP growth of 10% per annum would imply that some years will see growth in excess of 10%, say 15%, because there'll be years with single digit growth. Meanwhile, 2022 is going to see less than 4% o.
8. They're promising an unbelievable $780Bn GDP figure by 2027? When in fact a N550b mark by 2027 will be a miracle considering their thoughtless projections? GOD OF SHILOH!
9. They are promising to grow oil production by nearly 200% in 7 years? How? GOD OF T.B JOSHUA!
10. On housing, APC is promising that an economy with a debt burden of N42trn and a paltry revenue of N9.7trn will increase its housing units by 4.0 in 2023 to 8.0 in 2024 in successive progression per year.
Guys, I dare say that the document is bereft of the HOWs and the WHENs. It was drafted with the intention to confuse.
For me, this is not a policy document, but a PIPE DREAM at best. If we juxtapose it with the promises they made before, we have reasons to be very scared.
Manifesto that Tinubu and those old piece of shit in APC know nothing about its content. Tmr they will disclaim it. APC is the worst thing to have happened to this country.
Surely, the question they are suppose to ask themselves. Have they heard of any PDP rally?. Does that means atiku will not have one vote?
Lol, i was telling somone that the NC the obidients are relying on. I left kaduna to vote there in 2019, for atiku/obi.. Elections are decided here a day before election or in the morning of election. That is where the structure and the big-money bags comes in... Infact where i voted, we voted massively for Atiku/obi, but guess what.. They cancelled all the whole local government votes, they told us over voting. Nothing happened, no body talked about it... I dont think i need to tell you why, you should have known already.
I just pity the igbos really, they have always been on the wrong side of winning. They tried it with buhari 2015,he suffered them for 8years. Now they have started with Tinubu again, what they dont know is Jagaban is much worst. I pity them.
Look at the nonsense you just spewed. This is specifically the reason why Nigeria is in the bottom echelon of life. Thankfully, Igbos and right thinking Nigerians would rather waste their votes on competency than vote for another terribly comatose old man to continue the cycle of poor governance. Enjoy the video in your shamelessness ��.
Let me remind you that part you decided not to remember ... despite people chanting sai baba and the mantra was "change"
Political gladiators had to merge to displace Pdp, AC+CPC+ NPDP became ApC and it didnt end there APC matched Pdp in spending, structure and every antics required to win,
What technical moves as LP made as a party beyond youths catching on street rally across state, most chanting Obi now were Atikulate 2019, Winning an Election in Nigeria goes beyond youths dancing on streets, hookup and selfies for the gram. The one n only big name in LP is just Peter obi, compared to APC of 2015 that had saraki, tambuwal, amaechi, Tinubu & co. enough said can't wait to see the magic LP wan do cum 2023.
Those structures don’t mean much when the votes count. The era of taking the ballot box to a party chieftain’s house to thumb print is gone and it’s now one man one vote. So the only structure that counts is the people structure which belongs to Obi.
lhordspy: Very true... It is more like Obi and Atiku fighting for their already 2019 joint votes. Tinubu is not affected a bit.
The number of new votes or should i say voters that is adding to the 2019 own .. Is just 1m+ newly registered voters, after INEC screened the double registration out.
Even if the 1m+ people are to vote for obi, which is practically impossible, add it to the number of Atiku/obi votes in 2019(which is impossible because Atiku already have the northern voters in his bag) ... It wont be enough to even win an election.
Incase you dont understand what am trying to say. Even if you join Obi votes presently + Atiku's vote + the 1m newly registered voters, it isnt still enough to defeat a certain Tinubu APC if going by the Last general election.
Why am refferring to the last general elections is because nothing changes, nothing have change. Except the rallies and supposedly '2million' match which we witness almost every seconds.
The same people engaging in rallies or supporting obi, never voted for APC 2019.
The same set of people feeling marginalised on religious bases, because of the muslim-muslim ticket will never vote for APC in 2019 too.
The same christian bodies antagonising muslim muslim ticket, Never supported Buhari 2019 also.
The same Afenifere, never supported APC 2019
The same South East, South south.. Are traditionally PDP voters, their votes never changes the outcome of 2019.
Infact some of the muslims voted Atiku/obi 2019, but this time arround with the present political situation where the campaign as been turned into religious one, religous sentiments have found it way in Nigeria politics now, those votes are going to APC this time.
Undecided voters in 2019 like me, who voted for Atiku/obi will never ever vote for any of them this time, why? Because of the aggressive way of the obidients followers. I know so many of us here that are on that line or should i say clinging to that excuse.
The south-west voted overwhelming for Atiku/obi 2019, not because of the love for Atiku or Obi but because we felt the pain of the failed First tenure of buhari then.. Even lagos was almost lost by APC even with Tinubu. I feel my analysis is right here because those states lost by APC 2019 in southwest, was won by same APC governors during the governorship election except Oyo state which was narrowly lost. Now, coming to 2023, i feels a tribal sentiment will play major role here, APC will win massively in south west. But what if APC lost, they lost Overall in the southwest in 2019 in the presidential election. It still never changes anything. APC STILL WON THE ELECTION. BUHARI WON.
So when you take all this into consideration, analyse it without religious sentiment or hatred for any candidate. IT DOESN'T CHANGES ANYTHING. Infact the antagonism. of the Buhari candidature we witness in 2019, was far far more than the Tinubu candidature upset we are witness now. Because the anger of Buhari's first tenure which was marred by gross incompetency, insecurities upset alot of people and it cut across all regions. Be it yoruba, hausa,igbo, egede, idoma, ebira... Just name it.. People were angry with his first tenure. And after the election? I think we all know what happened - Buhari won again.
Some people are saying, the youth, the youth!. Do they PVc's? Alright fine, someone also came out to say they registered because of Obi this year. Then they didnt turn out massively like we are been deceivedto believe, the number of newly registered voters justify my point. Just 1m+ (which am sure the youth cant have more than 50% of 1m+)
So in my opinion, it takes more more than this childish rallies, photoshopping Tinubu's picture in an irritating manner, or throwing of insult and jabs. We, when i mean we, i mean i included engage in all this for Atiku/obi 2019, Buhari still won.
By simple logic and permutation and the little knowledge i have about politics, TINUBU may not win next year general election, but APC WILL DEFINITELY WIN. And it will be by landslide JUST LIKE 2019. BECAUSE NOTHING HAS CHANGED EXCEPT THAT OBI AND ATIKU ARE NOW SHARING THEIR VOTES.
Nonsense! If Atiku cannot secure his northern votes and depending on Obi’s Southern block to win then he should go and rest and not deserving of the contest.
Anyway in reality, Kwankwaso, Tinubu and Atiku will fight for and share the NE and NW votes, while Obi will get a good share of the SW and NC votes while securing SS and SE.
In all these permutations, your judgement is as good as mine. Obi is ahead of the other candidates while Tinubu’s chances are slim given that Atiku and Kwankwaso are chipping away his Northern votes.
That’s why there is so much panic in their camps. It appears all the attacks from APC and PDP are directed towards Obi.
In any case, let the best man win and undoubtedly today, Obi is by miles the best man for the job.
Dalung says he has quit the APC and joined the Social Democratic Party (SDP) because they have failed at all levels and disappointed Nigerians.
He also said APC has failed in all its promises which makes it morally wrong for him to continue to promote the APC. Which is why he resigned and apologized to Nigerians.
On Peter Obi, Dalung said although he is a good and young man, but the youth are making the same mistake they made with Buhari,
"We rallied around Buhari because of integrity and no one is asking important questions hence he is being mystified which led to a Buhari Hurricane"
He said the youth have not engaged Peter Obi the way he should be because of the charisma built around him.
"We are creating another monster without engagement" he said "because anybody who asks questions about Peter Obi will be attacked"
"The way we created Buhari monster, we are creating another one" He appealed that before Peter Obi is taken up, Peter Obi should be engaged.
He pledged support for the candidate of the SDP, Prince Adewole Adebayo who is the youngest candidate.
APC and lies are synonymous. Who among the candidates has been interviewed, engaged or directly scrutinised more than Obi.
Three things will change forever with the emergence of Obi
1. Firstly, the so called structures that they have used to deceived Nigerians in making and leaving us with incompetent people in political parties will die a natural death.
2. Secondly, politicians will learn how to deliver to attain the highest sit in power as delegates won't save dem from hiding behind any political parties because you have the war chest to bribe delegates.
3. Lastly, the people will realized that they are the real structures and can take back the country if they solely do.
Vote Obi to change the narrative of old corrupts foes.
Absolutely! Some people don’t realise it’s not about Obi himself. It is about the fact that power is with the people. If we are able to successfully make this statement, I can assure you that Nigeria will never be the same again. It will be the end to all these pot bellied oligarchs thinking they are gods!
Sergio104: Dear seun, please it's getting out of hand and is of great opprobrium what the mods are turning this forum especially politics section to. Firstly, I apologize for using alternate moniker to come to the forum but sincerely i was very surprised to wake up this morning to find out that my Sergio101 has been ban.
I used sarcasm to comment, telling him "you were not Informed, that the governor of Anambra is Ibrahim Abubakar soludo, that he as a mumu should do more research ".
Now a hypocrite mod of yours saw nothing wrong with the thread but Banned me till December ending .
Is it now an agenda to silence Obi's supporters??
Seun it's getting embarrassing sincerely!!
Nairaland is becoming something else. They don’t mind pushing a million topics against Obi to the front page. History will not be fair to Seun and any one found culpable in all these propaganda just for a pot of stew. Their evil will not go unpunished
We all know INEC would want to disrupt the will of the people but we are ready for them. We will resist all forms of tyranny from corrupt officials against this country. Nigeria must be saved
That one na your family headache my own is you people can't force obi down our throat if you want to vote go on, we don't care and we'll vote who deem fit not one flat head idiot.
I’m not forcing any body down your throat. You can say the same applies to me if my statement lacks objectivity. You guys are posting all these nonsense against one of the most credible candidates to push a wobbly sick, cunny and unscrupulous fellow down the throat of the ignorant people not because you care a bit about Sowore. You are a very pathetic set of people. Remember that there is Karma and you can’t hide from it.
Oluwaseunomo: Obi followers are pathetic human beings you can't talk in public you can't talk on social media this nuisance will start attacking you, most everybody buy you people's moronic idea. Even the mumu no fit smell aso rock if una wan die make una die.
We are pathetic because we have a leader who albeit not perfect but is talking to the people and bringing a new order. He is doing his best to offer solutions and provide actionable data also. A leader who is not afraid of the people asking him tough questions.
Tell me who are the Zombies? Those that will follow a terribly sick man who they know will take the country to comatose like his predecessor. Is that not wickedness? May God punish all those that are fighting tooth and nail to destroy this country because of their selfishness
We will soon leave this forum for you guys. It’s unimaginable that a forum like this will be anti youth because of tribal primordial sentiments.
Nonsense! May God punish all those who through their actions and inactions contribute to the current status of this country because of their selfish interests.
ejimatic: . Anybody is free to go to anywhere! Going abroad is not my concern and discussion there is not my focus but the reality of its substance.
You should be absolutely concerned what the man is doing abroad. Are you gonna vote another NEPA certificate president dead or alive?
Alliances are being built by all the aspirants and none of them has a clear path to victory today. Not Tinubu, not Atiku, not Obi and definitely not Kwankwaso. If Atiku feels he is strong, let him show it with the northern votes. I guess Tinubu is also expecting to clear northern votes based on your assumption? And how about kwankwaso? And you also believe Tinubu will clear southern votes too?
ejimatic: "It is really disheartening that Nigerian politicians are jetting thousands of miles away to negotiate possible alliances. Couldn’t these meetings have all been held back home? More significantly, Peter Obi who has tried to sell himself as distinct from the rest, is no different. “At the end of the day, it’s all about self-interest and not what is best for Nigeria. Sometimes, I often wonder why we kill ourselves and lose precious sleep over these politicians. They’re all the same…. Selfish, desperate, insincere, lying bunch.”.1. I agree with the Arise chief executive that all our politicians are all the same. They all are not interested in the masses. All they want is the wealth of the nation. 2. As I always say here it is the turn of the SE to produce the president but in reality it cannot be done in a flash like this.3 Obasanjo who was supporting Atiku in 2019 by taking him to the US did not even deliver his ward and Ogun to PDP. Atiku lost .Will he now deliver Ogun for LP and the entire North ? He himself knows Obi cannit win but prefers to do eye-service for the obedient.We shall see how it will turn out on February 2023!! 4.Wike appears to have known the that for a the SE to produce president it not a work of months but years.A great synergy must exist btwn the SE SW SS and the entire North.. This fire brigade approach ends nowhere. 6. As to whether the north will support Atiku or BAT time will tell. The North however will make a choice. The bigwigs there will still decide the pendulum of their votes. BAT however will get votes in the region of all the APC governors in the region do not betray him
Let criticise objectively. Obi was on a European and US tour. It’s only reasonable to take the opportunity to negotiate with Wike, a major stakeholder in the coming election. After all, you all claim Obi does not have a structure.
Now question is what is the Bullion Van master doing in Uk? How long is he staying there and what is his program? Can we assume he has once again disappeared to recharge his dying batteries.
His precedents lead me to believe that Seun must have done something stupid on the forum but rather than admit and seek forgiveness, he is here seeking public sympathy. Mr. Seun, for once take responsibility for your indiscretions. Be accountable for your irrationality for once. Imagine, it’s because of people like you that these politicians succeed in taking us for a ride in this country. Anyway, it’s not yet too late to turn a new leaf.
IamWonderful: Trust me, Pandora Peter OBItuary will come back crawling on his knees for vice president post after his humiliation and unfettered disgrace even in his own Anambra state
You guys will be the first to instigate disrespect but will run to complain when others reciprocate with same behavior.
Anyway to the topic, should Obi leave Labour Party, I will vote for Sowore. PDP and APC are not worth our consideration. They are both synonymous with failures. These parties only care about their selfish agenda.
ILoveDemMANNA: Keep shut ipob, all the deaths, violence, murders you are supporting will soon get to you, na here we gather dey. Just continue supporting evil, dem no dey tell person. All your kinds here are regretting already, it's gotten to their doorsteps already. Na turn by turn.
Like I said, you need mental therapy before you start roaming the streets! Hurry before it’s too late!
post=112997343: Na supporting and taking pictures with a terrorist, murderer and animal wey u take statt ur tenure u go spend on the money on. Professor without sense
Waooo! Guy…you are really mean! Kind of narcissistic! You need to go for mental evaluation honestly.
