GoooodHardDick: Oga do a fact check about Tinubu's drug dealing case exactly the way you did on others. Abi you never hear of Tinubu drug case before?
Do fact check and tell us if it's true or not
You want me to end it with how the American government said he wasn't indicted so that you can come back to open threads again? Although it will be fun to watch
Those who know me know I really don't cower easy and I see miles ahead
Aufbauh: Sure! I'm not disputing your quest to fact check on Soludo's statement. I'm simply saying that it's an obvious fact to accept without research cos of the reliability of the source.
The NBS is not reliable?
You do know that almost every stat quoted by Peter Obi is from the NBS?
There is a literarily a video of him saying he gets his figures from there
GoooodHardDick: Mr Man you're a mod and you're expected to be neutral in matters like this, knowing fully well that there are so many tribes in this forum.

Why always defending Yoruba and Tinubu the drug lord? Now I see why so many people hate you with passion on this forum! You're really tribalistic.
It'll interest you to know that president peter Obi is your next president come 2023! You better start getting used to him now!
Your problem is that you want to see things in black and white.
I fact checked Soludo. If he was wrong, I would have posted it too will that mean I support Peter Obi?
madapcmod: Mod wey no know say his name na moderator.
How a partisan mod wan take be fair to all parties?
Obi was Governor from 2006 to 2014.
The data you bandied shows a decline under his tenure, despite you are clever by half by not showing the figure after his tenure to prove you fact check wrong.
This is example of oluwole Bleep check
You can only fact check what was said.
Soludo said the poverty figure in 2010 was 68% it is true.

pinkPUSSY: This one is not hiding his bigotry anymore..
Waking up in the morning the ist thing he did is opening a thread against Peter Obi by 5am, whereas his candidate Tinubu has a lot of incredible dirty loads on his neck, of course this thread is heading to fp..
I thought the owner of this forum told us those days that mods are not biased..
Very unfortunate!!..
BUT ONE THING I AM ASSURING YOU IS THAT TINUBU CAN NEVER RULE THIS COUNTRY WITH THIS CURRENT SETTINGS, KNOW THIS AND KNOW PEACE
I can confidently tell you you do not know the meaning of bigotry
Aufbauh: Do we really need fact check on Soludo's statement? Who else should know more about Obi's performance and records in office than his brother/successor,an erudite professor of economics with higher intellect & capacity.
Even Obi himself can't disprove the fact of the matter as he was made to be humbled by Soludo's statement of fact.
I reteirate that Obi is a packaged scam and sham that shouldn't be given an opportunity to govern a complex country like nigeria with hydra-headed challenges in our desperate quest for a 'New Nigeria'. Nigeria is beyond Obi's capacity, competence and scope in all ramifications.
Everybody can be fact checked. I was more curious about it when I saw the tweet By Nicholas Ibekwe saying he is having difficulty fact checking it.
[quote author= post=118428413]I know you hate Obi and you are trying all your best through this platform to bull him down but I can assure you that you're wasting your time, how I wish you can conduct same research on Tinubu drug case
Peter Obi responded to this very Report on LBS yesterday 19 Nov 2010 — Magnus Kpakol who is then incharge of NationalPovertyEradicationProgramme rated Anambra state high as the state with the lowest poverty rate among all the states in the country.
Watch the response from Peter Obi on Lagos business school
Former Central Bank Of Nigeria and Present Governor of Anambra State, Professor Charles Soludo in an article titled "History beckons and I will not be silent " wrote about the poverty level of Anambra state from 2006 to 2010 while the present Presidential Candidate of the Labor Party, Peter Obi was in his first term as governor of Anambra state.
In an article which many described as either very needless as they claimed Charles Soludo is merely bitter and angry, others praised it as they said it brought into public light numerous false misconceptions by Peter Obi's supporters.
Either way, his comment on the statistics of the poverty level in Anambra, got tongues wagging and fingers typing (mine included) and a lot of people have said the former CBN governor simply lied (but did he?)
Claim: Charles Soludo wrote that "…poverty in Anambra actually grew (from less than 25% in 2005) to about 53% under Peter Obi in 2010/2011 but fell under Willie Obiano to 14.78% in 2020. Yes, poverty more than doubled under Peter Obi and more than 50% of Ndi Anambra were in poverty under him. Go and verify"
This isn't all as he had wrote something similar in 2015 in an article titled "Buhari vs Jonathan: Beyond the Election" where he wrote that "According to the National Bureau of Statistics, poverty rose under his watch in Anambra from 20% in 2004 (lowest in Nigeria then) to 68% in 2010 (a 238% deterioration!)."
These two quotes seem similar but can also be be different as the numbers dont match but if we look closely, in the 2022 letter, he mentioned 2010/2011 which was mostly measured in 2011 and in the 2015 letter, he was specific about the year 2010.
Verification: According to a press briefing By then Statistician General of the federation and lead of the National Bureau of Statistics, Yemi Kale in a press briefing titled "Press Briefing By The Statistician-General Of The Federation/Chief Executive Officer, National Bureau Of Statictics Dr. Yemi Kale" delivered in February 2012.
Now since the NBS does not release poverty levels per years, we can only judge with the 2010 report
It is seen that the poverty level of Anambra state as at 2010 was at 68% (see image below) which matches the value quoted by Professor Charles Soludo in his 2015 article.
Verdict: The statement by the Anambra state governor, Professor Soludo claiming that the poverty level in Anambra while Peter Obi was governor rose to 68% in 2010 and 53% in 2010/2011 can be said to be true and not an exaggeration.
Also notable is that when Peter Obi responded to Professor Soludo in 2015, he did not refute the poverty percentage.
Racoon: Another gbas gbos! Since priest are more called "woli" than "Alufa" why call them the latter? All these gaffes are not ordinary but deliberate attempts to malign the Christian faith because Tinubu can never try this with Islam.
