Nigerians and entitled mentality, if all of you like don't invest in Dangote it won't stop him from being the richest black man, we have companies that have closed businesses. Oceanic bank, bank PHB , international bank, Diamond bank e.t.c so many Nigerian bought those shares, what is their value today...zero...and I dare you to go and challenge any past official of those companies that your investment worth nothing today.

Unfortunately Nigeria is a failed state that is why people listen to the likes of VDM who has nothing of value to add to anyone lives

Dangote always has various govt lopsided support which others don't. It's okay for anyone who wants to jump in and find out. Experience teaches best.

Saturnalia:
In Nigeria, Any investment that you see being advertised openly on Radio, T.V, News Papers and the Internet is designed to con you out of your hard earned money.

The wealthy do not like competition. They like to maintain their monopoly over influence & power.

Why share that Influence & Power with the dregs of the society?

Investment that will make you rich & wealthy will be guarded & hoarded like a Gold Treasure. You will only hear its whispers and it will never be opened to the public.

You are well informed. It's just like eM eM eM.

seunmsg:
For those who are interested in the truth beyond propaganda, this video explains everything from the initial arrest of Lee Edwards in 1988 to the conclusion of the case without any criminal charge in 1993. Tinubu was never involved in any narcotics sales or trafficking. Akande, a family member just like Abibatu Mogaji and Kola Tinubu all kept money with Tinubu. The US seized all the funds in a forfeiture case and after proper investigation, they released over $1million that belongs to Bola Tinubu, Kola Tinubu and Abibatu Mogaji while $460,000 that belongs to Akande was forfeited. The US even asked the Tinubu family to agree with the dismissal of the case with prejudice so that no future case can be filed against the US government.

I really enjoyed this your lie. Please keep it up.

RichBoy247:
.
As it happened in 2022. I love your jokes

As it has always been, I love your lies.

Johnpat198:
May government no increase minimum wage again because it will increase house rent and everything, they should use another method to speculate the rate of subsidy. By bringing the price of Petro to #500.

They want something to help them win as they can see that Nigerians don't want them. It has nothing with making lives better.

PresidentAtiku:
What manner of economists are these ooooo

You keep increasing wage and making the cost of everything go up

Reduce prices, costs and you won’t need to do all these accidental increases

Omor this govt Mumu ooo. I laugh when i hear them say they built Lagos because their current national performance is a gross disaster. If they built Lagos, they should have started building Nigeria.

Tomorrow someone will come and say one thing built Abuja, forgetting it is the country's capital

Stop falling for that nonsense. Even the thief knows he didn't build anything. They put out lies and hope to make it sell.

ebuguy:
4000 influencer = 4000 idiotic Nigerians who will accept the job..

If they are wise, they should collect the money and back stab them, just like they do to Nigerians.

fitinwell:
This government is not smart at all... Why not touch the lives of Nigerians positively, you won't be needing 4000 influencers..

You assume they are normal people, but they are not.
They are like a cult, only out to do their master's bidding.
That is the only thing that matters, not doing the right thing, or using their conscience.

tonesky:
Atiku should take note for probing them when he takes over in 2027. Using tax payers money for nonsense.

That one sef na southerner?

This one na mega data boys project.
Be like, the rejection too scary.
Nigerians dey wait them to send them packing.

Asiwaju Jagaban

Sai Tinubu 2027

This baba too sabi abeg...

Him too sabi bad leadership.
For him mind, him think say we no sabi him gimmicks.

twilliamx:
Men buzz off

Sorry, this one choke.

twilliamx:
Rigging? Am just saying January is almost here and all this banter is unnecessary

That's if you prove you will not rig. Any evidence to that effect or we should gloss over it?

gbadesky75:
rubbish news.when did US government start endorsing candidates for election?

Listen and learn. America rules the world. If they choose to go against your thief, even you won't survive it.

Tareq1105:
And you believe this?

This man is just out to justify what he was paid by Atiku. It's a diversionary tactics.

If I may ask you, Where is the FBI report that was supposed to be released last Friday 18th?

For your information, Tinubu doesn't need the endorsement of Trump to win his re-election.

He doesn't need their endorsement? But he needs a lawyer to beg them in court not to release his criminal records. Your are smart.

madridguy:
Some set of people are doing something the same way they did in 2023 that ended them on tears and after next year general election, you see them crying around again.

In 2023, it was Mr Gutterman abi wetin be the Oyinbo man name again that they contributed money for now it is Von batten una go wise las las.

Some people, you mean those whitewashing a thief who lost shamelessly but bribed his way to power? Yes, same thing again, he will lose again and hope to rig himself back in. Even the US rejected him.

masterfactor:
This is one of the reason I say Donald Trump and his followers are dumb. . Especially those in Nigeria.

Compared with them BATists who dumb pass?

Krankhead:
ALWAYS online until the reality is done on you guys

Don't mind them. They don't know that reality that the result is already written, just waiting for formality.

Otamendi99:
Na so we quote u for 2023. Still we no see anything

We thank God for electoral fraud. Mamud played his card well.

twilliamx:
Forget statistics..... Reality don't reach finish.... January is almost here

Don't bank on rigging, it can fail.

IAM4BAT4plus4:
You obviously don't have a valid point!





Bro don't waste your time and vote on corrupt politicians!


PBAT is your best bet!
A vote for PBAT is a vote for Christ!
Shalom...

Na those fake "Bishops" dey give hope shey?

Cry well well. Cry as you like

Check this first. After that you can then help me cry the cry.

KingOfAmebo:
You cannot erase a questionable past, Tinubu's past keeps haunting him...

FUNDAMENTAL ACHIEVEMENTS AS GOVERNOR OF ANAMBRA STATE (PARTIAL LISTING)

1. Anambra was the first State to commence Sub-Sovereign Wealth savings, the first of its kind in Sub-Saharan Africa. At a time many other Governors were leaving huge debts, I left the equivalent of $500 million Dollars in investment as well as local and foreign currency, including $156 million in Dollar-denominated bonds.

2. For the first time in the history of Anambra State, Ambassadors and High Commissioners of notable countries such as United States, Britain, Russia, European Union, South Africa, Belgium, Israel, the Netherlands, Canada, among others, visited the State. Before my tenure, Anambra was practically a pariah state blacklisted by the Diplomatic Corps and international development partners.

3. Development partners such as UNDP, UNICEF, the World Bank, DFID, the European Union etc., which hitherto were not in Anambra State started working with the State. Anambra was consistently adjudged one of the best states in development partnership and commitment to reforms for good governance.

4. He was recognised as Best Governor by the Millennium Development Goals Office (OSSAP-MDGs) and the UNDP in the implementation of their programmes in Nigeria.

5. The Nigerian Debt Management Office (DMO) rated Anambra as the least indebted state in Nigeria. In spite of visible and measurable achievements recorded in various sectors, the State under him did not borrow or raise bonds for her various projects.

6. The Senate of the Federal Republic of Nigeria rated Anambra State as the most financially stable state in the country.

7. The State's ground-breaking return of schools to their original owners - Voluntary Agencies (Churches) on 1st January 2009, and subsequent partnership with the Agencies in Education, saw the State move from 24th position out of 36 States to Number One in National Examination Council (NECO) and West African Examination Council (WAEC) examinations for three consecutive years. This made the World Bank to commission a study, led by the renowned Prof. Paul Collier of Oxford University, on this revolutionary partnership and phenomenal achievement.

8. The State also entered into strategic partnership with the Churches in the Health sector. This symbiotic relationship resulted in a tremendous boost to health care because of the services offered by health institutions owned by Voluntary Agencies, while the State restored grants to the agencies and made available to them more than 50 million Dollars in various types of support.

10. Through partnership with the Church in the Health sector, his Government funded the transformation of -:

a: Iyienu Hospital, Ogidi;
b: Our Lady of Lourdes Hospital, Ihiala;
c: St Charles Borromeo Hospital, Onitsha;
d: Holy Rosary Hospital, Waterside, Onitsha; and
e: St. Joseph Hospital, Adazi-Nnukwu.
His Government also built the Joseph Nwilo Heart Centre in St. Joseph, Adazi-Nnukwu, where heart operations are now being performed.

11. His Government won the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation (1 Million dollars) as the best-performing state in immunisation in the South-East. With complementary funding from our Government, they used the money to build 10 Maternal and Child Care Centres across the State, particularly in rural communities, in partnership with the Churches.

12. The State was the first to procure and distribute more than 30,000 computers to secondary schools, including 22,500 from HP. The Managing Director for Personal Systems Group HP Inc, Mr. FabriceCampoy described the deployment as the biggest of such projects in the Middle-East and Africa.

13. Anambra State Government provided Microsoft Academies to more than 500 secondary schools, which the Head of Microsoft in Nigeria (Mr. Ken Span) described as the biggest such deployment in Africa so far.

14. The State provided Internet access to more than 500 secondary schools, which the CEO of Galaxy Backbone (Mr. Gerald Ilukwe) characterized as incomparable to any in the country.

15. More than 700 buses were provided to secondary schools in the State by our Government.

16. Boreholes were provided in schools all over the State.

17. Numerous classrooms were built in all the 177 communities of the State.

18 As part of the efforts to turn around the economy of the State, a number of companies were attracted to build their facilities in the Anambra State. A case in point is SABMiller, the 2nd largest brewery in the world, which built their first Green Field facility in the State, which is today one of the most successful facilities they operate globally.

19. A number of other companies followed the SABMiller initiative and were all supported and encouraged under our Government; a good example is INNOSON Motor Manufacturing Company, from which our government bought more than 1,000 vehicles.

20. Anambra State for the first time started close collaboration with recognized government security agencies (the Police, Army, Navy, Department of State Security, Civil Defence, among others), offering them various types of support including provision of more than 500 security vehicles. The improvement in security was phenomenal, such that the former IG of Police (Abubakar Mohammed) lauded Anambra State for not witnessing any bank robbery in my last three years in office.

21. To further enhance security, Anambra State provided at least one security vehicle to each of all the 177 communities in the State as well as various organizations such as markets and Churches.

22. His Administration conceived and built, from scratch, the first state-owned Teaching Hospital, Chukwuemeka Odumegwu-Ojukwu teaching Hospital, Awka.

23. His Government commenced the planned development of the Igbariam Campus of the ChukwuemekaOdumegwu-Ojukwu University, including the fencing, construction of internal roads, electrification, construction of the Faculty of Law, Auditorium, Administrative Block, Faculty of Agriculture, Management Building, among others).

24. His Government attracted the World Bank support on erosion - National Erosion and Watershed Management Project (NEWMAP) - to Anambra State.

25. His Government was the first to do Poverty Mapping in Nigeria, as a guide for the effective implementation of our poverty-alleviation strategies.

26 His Government, for the first time, undertook the aerial mapping of Awka as well as the production of Structure Plans for Awka Capital Territory, Onitsha and Nnewi.

27. During his tenure and with his Government's support, Anambra State became an oil producing State.

28. He built the first Secretariat Complex to house State Government Ministries that were hitherto scattered around the State.

29. His government commenced the development of the 'Three Arms Zone' comprising Government House/Governor’s Lodge, Legislative Building/Speakers Residence, and Judiciary Building with Chief Judge’s Residence.

30. By the end of his tenure in 2014, more than twelve (12) health institutions, including two hospitals, had secured accreditation; when we took off in 2006, no health institution in Anambra State was duly accredited.

31. Anambra State was the first to undergo national peer review, which scrutinised State Governments for good governance, through the State Peer Review Mechanism (SPRM), an initiative of the Nigerian Governors’ Forum in collaboration with the DFID..

TAKE AWAY:

1. He ran the most secured state in Nigeria during his tenure. Former IGP Abubarkar gave him 5 years accollades of the most secured state back to back for 5 years.

2. The minister of works then gave him the best accolade of a governor that built 800km of road network in 8years

3. Educationally , He met Anambra at 26th position in 2006 and left it at 1st by 2014 when he was leaving.

4. He was the only governor that met the millennium development goal in Nigeria in both education and health. In fact , Milinda and bill gate foundation gave him a personal gift of 1 million dollar for his achievement. Which he dropped in the state account rather than putting in his own private account.

5. He is the only former governor today that does not collect pension, gratuity, land gift and allowances since he left the govt in 2014.

6. When he became SEC chairman under President Jonathan, he told SEC to hold back all his allowance and entitlement as a Board chairman . He left without nothing. He said he does not need them.

When he was chairman of fidelity bank , he was entitled to two brand new cars annually. He told the board. I don't need them. Let me just come for meetings and go home.

You can only be angry with him. You cannot change the facts.

TAKE AWAY:

1. He ran the most secured state in Nigeria during his tenure. Former IGP Abubarkar gave him 5 years accollades of the most secured state back to back for 5 years.

2. The minister of works then gave him the best accolade of a governor that built 800km of road network in 8years

3. Educationally , He met Anambra at 26th position in 2006 and left it at 1st by 2014 when he was leaving.

4. He was the only governor that met the millennium development goal in Nigeria in both education and health. In fact , Milinda and bill gate foundation gave him a personal gift of 1 million dollar for his achievement. Which he dropped in the state account rather than putting in his own private account.

5. He is the only former governor today that does not collect pension, gratuity, land gift and allowances since he left the govt in 2014.

6. When he became SEC chairman under President Jonathan, he told SEC to hold back all his allowance and entitlement as a Board chairman . He left without nothing. He said he does not need them.

When he was chairman of fidelity bank , he was entitled to two brand new cars annually. He told the board. I don't need them. Let me just come for meetings and go home.

You can only be angry with him. You cannot change the facts.

Like for Asiwaju

Share for the man who allegedly left his state with a heavy generational debts

You love bat or rat or you love the money they are paying for you to write this, which one?

helinues:
Ladi would eventually make people to have sympathy for Yayi with this his method

Yayi's votes will increase with this your tactics

Imagine this Ladi is not even interested in telling the Ogun people what's going to do differently apart from chasing Yayi's shadow

Exactly, just like the way Tinubu's misrule and his party thugs attacks put Obi in the spotlight.
APC keeps forging lies to discredit him while mute on Tinubu's zero achievements.

Sleekfingers:
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣Elders in Anambla better call Peter Obi and Soludo to a meeting and settle their differences, before Soludo finish Saint Jesus Peter Obi.

Soludo is only finishing himself. Saint Obi dey a different level.
Every time they attack with allegations, they end up being proven to be false.

nedu666:
After 8 years of Obiano and 4 years of soludo, soludo is still blaming obi for erosion and roads. If soludo really cares for Anambra he should use the money he is wasting on a second airport to fix erosion and roads. The first airport is not fully utilised yet you are building a second when there is erosion sites and bad road. This is how umahi and Nwifuru spent 57 billion on a crayon airport that no one is using when health care, education, roads are in shambles

You can see through how they hate their people with passion while pretending to care.

HacheNoire:
Peter is not brilliant. He shares same IQ with Portable Olalomi

Have you seen Gbenga talk? That’s our Nigerian Obama

He is learned, eloquent and brilliant. He doesn’t just talk, he comes with statistics, history and facts.

You like intelligent IQ, how come you like balablu, abi you share same IQ with Portable Olalom?
You just want use style de-market star Obi as usual abi?

Kenneth Okonkwo said Obi is a conman.

Honestly, he cannot be more correct.

If Tinubu, Atiku and Obi is your candidate, e no suppose better for your lineage, especially Obj

Very politically empty and clueless

All he knows is Cho cho cho

Kenneth Okonkwo said this, Kenneth Okonkwo said that.
Kenneth Okonkwo has been dragged to court by that Obi, let him go there and nail him.
I don't know how a sensible person like you takes Kenneth Bwala serious or you just dey cruise.
