givedemwotowoto:Ahead of what game? He’s meeting with a random white guy and calling him British official. He should be talking to Nigerians about his economic plan. But then he has no plan to share. He should start wailing again if the invevitable happens in January |
Useless & visionless governor. With all your energy, how have you transformed Oyo state in last 8 years? These type of politicians take Nigerians for fool and mugu. Unfortunately, there are people that will fall for this nonsense and believe this is leadership. |
Only 90 days to go and these useless politicians are talking about coalition with the only purpose to unseat Tinubu. No vision, no policy or plan to get Nigeria better. They just want to get there to chop and divide positions amongst themselves. These are the most useless and clueless opposition in the history of Nigeria. |
LagosOrigin:In any type of election, Obi can’t win. Since 2023 his support base has significantly dwindled. He was very popular then and came a distant 3rd Today he’s handicapped in 17 northern and SW states. He can only win or get 25% in SE, SS, FCT and Lagos. Thats it. So no pathway to presidency. Dude is just talking all over the place to give his blind followers false hope. In his mind, Obi knows he can’t win |
Military parades are relics of a dictatorial military regime. Parades are old fashioned and not befitting a democratic society. We don’t need parades to celebrate Independence Day. Let’s celebrate with things that showcase our part of modern society. Dispense with parades. |
Obi is a liar and deceitful person. Croydon is a suburb of London about 40km away. Average house in 1996 was £85,000. Why would you then pay £1 million for a property in that same Croydon? Even in London you will hardly find houses worth that much in 1996. One explanation is that he was laundering money from proceeds of illicit activities.(drugs) Period. another explanation is that he may be lying to fool EFCC that he had assets worth over £1 million before he bacame Governor. Most likely that document in the video is fake. |
The explanation is wash. Under no circumstances should you lap a grown arse man. We need to understand decency in this country. Anyway, I blame the student that agreed to do that. It’S just weird |
Uber exit is meaningless. What we need is an integrated and affordable mass transit system, including rail, buses, and ferries. Uber is just a glorified taxi platform. Let those who can afford it ride it. Exiting Nigeria is because of stiff competition and protect profit margins. Just last week they laid off 3,000 workers as part of plans to go driverless. Uber was taking 25% of drivers' pay as commission and exploiting them. In some countries like Canada, they even take up to 40% commission. Uber has become a predatory, slave driver that has no compassion for its drivers. |
aswani:You dey mind this people? Give it 1 week this whole van Barton or Ikemefuna story will blow over. They have nothing to campaign with. Just throwing out garbage stories to fool their gullible followers. All I need to know is what alternative solutions Atiku has to fix the economy. Election is 4 months away |
Why would a journalist sit on his lap while asking questions? Something is not adding up in this video. Rather bizarre video |
nairalanda1:Seriously how does government diversify an economy? Everyone makes this statement and it means nothing. Government is not a business or enterprise that can create revenue sources. The role of government is to provide enabling environment: infrastructure, strong institutions, eliminating market distortions (e.g subsidies) The only way government increases revenue is through taxation. But Nigerians don’t want to pay more taxes. Oil revenue alone can’t lead to prosperity. Even the $10bn Falana is yelling about is pocket change. South Africa’s annual budget is $110b and Nigerians are shouting over $10b. Subsidy made Nigeria an unproductive, rent seeking economy. We need to start producing more stuff and providing services. Only private sector can do this. |
Opposition has started their wild goose chase again. What is Tinubu’s age & school pt 2. Instead of focusing on campaigning, they’re wasting time on irrelevant stuff. Election is just 5 months away. They shouldn’t come here tovwail that they were rigged out when they eventually lose. Atiku & obi are the worst pair of opposition in living memory. Pair of hopeless and visionless nitwits. |
What Obi said is not plausible. His habit of exaggerating or embellishing stories has creeped into lies and falsehoods. How can they kill one cow everyday to feed 50 people? And the other part about visiting “big men” in their houses after work is so laughable and has to be lie. A governor has so many meetings & schedule; where is the time for He tries to tell us he’s humble and prudent. However, he talks like a micro managing, clueless individual with no vision on solving big problems |
May his soul rest in peace. He came, did his bit and left On another note: social media is now garbage. How do you video someone at their moment of grief? Disgusting and horrible. People just video anything and post for clicks and traffic |
Obi attending meaningless conferences just to stay relevant. So because you are meeting with white folks in Germany, that conference is important for Nigeria. Just tell us your economic plans. What will you do differently? Gallivanting the world and taking selfies with oyinbo na just content |
greatiyk4u:How do you know it’s 10%? Who gave you the criteria for measurement? Just using numbers from thin air to prove a point. Admit the government is building great infrastructure and leave at that. Stop nitpicking |
Personal attacks on the President will not work. Tell us what you will do. For the last 3 yrs you’ve being gallivanting & talking all over the place. Still you’ve not mentioned your economic policy or what you’ll do differently Creating content and talking points is just to make your online audience happy. Nothing more |
Ofunaofu:No contradiction here. Yes he initiated the process to open an account but it was never opened. There was a an application and documents to open the CBN acct and presidency may have assumed one existed; hence statement by Onanuga. Nothing alarming here. Nigerians are just being driven by conspiracy theories where no exists. In a large burueacarcy sometimes things fall through the crack. In the end this may just be one individual or group of individuals trying to exploit loopholes in the system to commit fraud. The more information comes to light, it’s clearer that this isn’t a corruption avenue by government or political leaders. This will be proven in due course |
So Senegal, Namibia & Eswatini are industrial countries? Whoever posted this should go back to school and learn geography & economics. Why must you post such an ignorant message just to run Nigeria down. |
chicfarmer:The Buhari handover notes and transitional documents would have revealed the state of Finances to the Tinubu government. And besides there was no provision in the 2023 budget for payment of subsidy. Nigeria should have removed this subsidy years ago instead of borrowing to maintain an unsustainable budget item. Tinubu did the right thing by stopping the bleeding in finances. What organized manner is Obi saying? This shows he’s unable to take tough but necessary decisions. Immediate removal was the best economic decision by this government. Prosperity will judge him to be right |
So 3rd & 4th now together to win it all. Imagine the delusion. They won only 12 states in 2023 and now expect to win 24 states in 7 months time. Both now they can’t win but just deceiving their slavish supporters by giving false hope |
PresidentMUGABE:Obi dey waka-waka again to create content. Seriously, in the grand scheme of things, this South Africa immigration issue is a nothing burger. Instead of Obi to run for primaries to show his mettle, he's taking pictures with low-level South African officials. Better tell him to go and start campaigning in NE & NW hopefully he'll get 10% of votes. Even in his mind Obi knows he can't win but has to keep deceiving his gullible Obidients that hope dey |
slivertongue:It's just hyperbole to say he'll deliver big numbers for Tinubu in Edo. These primary results show he can do it |
franchasng:Nobody wan put gbese for head to buy form and do campaign knowing they’ll lose election to APC governors. Fact. |
PrinceOfLagos:Organic followers in just 1 state? What of other places in North? Kwankwaso is an empty shell with 0% electoral value to anyone. The guy just dey use Obi cruise. |
How does this make sense? The 2 guys came 3rd & 4th in 2023, with just just 30% of all votes. Also had 25% in 17 states only. Now they want to win it all in 2027. These guys are dreamers or just think Nigerians are fools. What exactly changed since 2023? Whether it’s OK or KO, they have nothing to offer |
It’s always high level talks & engagement with key partners. He’ll never tell Nigerians his economic plans, infrastructure plans or how to fix insecurity. Same gibberish, bland statement and then moves to another party. He has no clue to solve complex problems of this Nation. Just daily drama and complaining that government does not want him to rule It’s just a shame we still have Nigerians that are fooled by this clown. It’s amazing how people can’t see Obi is an empty shell, clueless to solving problems |
casualobserver:Very correct. People just read headline and jump to conclusions. Why Naija people no dey read things well? I tire o |
There is a deliberate attempt by the press to mislead the public in pursuit of a political agenda. Daily Trust is the arrowhead, and Arise TV spreading the same garbage. Unfortunately, most Nigerians will not research and just accept this misinformation. Here's the latest debt profile as reported by Nigeria's DMO. Analyze the information and form your own conclusion. Debt reduced in USD but rose in Naira. Why? Go figure As of Sept 2025 Total Public Debt $103,937.68 ($103 billion) N153,292,482.36 (N153 trillion) June 2023 Total Public Debt $113,423.77 ($113 billion) N87,379,401.75 (N87 trillion) |
Obi know in his mind. Just Letting his obidients down gently |
“In saner climes you don’t have convoys like this for President or PM” so which clime is this? |
nairalanda1:Even in $ value the Nigerian stock market has grown tremendously. In 2022 it was valued at $50b (based on the subsidized and corrupted rate of 450) Today the value is $90b based on market driven rate of 1,350. More investors have confidence in the Nigerian market and buying up the stock. You guys are sleeping on the Nigerian market due to hatred for Tinubu. Foreign investors see a dynamic market with huge upside growth and putting their money in it |
