Politics › Re: Peter Obi Meets UK Officials, Nigerian Diaspora To Discuss Rebuilding Nigeria by occam(m): 6:42pm On Oct 22
givedemwotowoto:
Peter Obi is seriously ahead of this game, nobody even comes close
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
Politics › Re: "Vote For Any Presidential Candidate That Can Jump Down" - Makinde To Supporters by occam(m): 5:01pm On Oct 22
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.
Politics › Re: Opposition Parties Meet Atiku, Obi, Makinde Over Single Candidate Against Tinubu by occam(m): 8:34pm On Oct 15
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.
Politics › Re: Campaigns And Rallies Remain Absent 3 Months To 2027 General Elections by occam(m): 7:18pm On Oct 10
LagosOrigin:
Did you read the thread at all?

If there is anybody campaigning seriously right now should be tinubu but he can't because of the outright rejection all around.

In a free and fair election, Peter Obi don't need to campaign that much because his organic followers are already doing that and doing it good for him without collecting shishi.

It is only Peter Obi that has genuine followership who are ready to put there lives on the line to see him win the 2027 election.
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
Politics › Re: Coup: Tinubu’s Govt Skips Independence Day Parade For Second Year Running by occam(m): 6:54pm On Oct 01
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.
Politics › Re: The Day EFCC Called Me - Peter Obi by occam(m): 3:08pm On Sep 24
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.
Politics › Re: Why Oyo Student Sat On Sharafadeen Alli's Lap - Campaign Team by occam(m): 1:44pm On Sep 04
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
Politics › Re: UBER Exit Exposes The Pitfalls Of Tinubunomics by occam(m): 10:03pm On Sep 03
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.
Politics › Re: Trump Appoints Von Batten Into White House Presidential Commission by occam(m): 3:29pm On Sep 03
aswani:
You shouldn't have bothered as we all know it is an absolute nonsense.

Commissioner on a @WhiteHouse presidential commission.


First off, a Presidential Commission on what?

Secondly who is the Chairman and who are the other members?

Thirdly, there are no Commissioners on a Presidential Commission, there are members and a chairman and maybe a deputy.

Once more, Ikeamafuna, for that is his name AMINDA, has seemingly moved on from the private review for Judge Howell. Are we not going to hear what happened then? When are the 399 pages going to see the light of day?

I am certain he is going to claim his twitter account has been hacked.
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
Politics › Re: Full Video Of Sharafadeen Alli & Male Journalist Sitting On His Lap by occam(m): 3:23pm On Sep 03
Why would a journalist sit on his lap while asking questions? Something is not adding up in this video. Rather bizarre video
Politics › Re: Subsidy: Where The $10Bn That Would Have Been Spent On Fuel Importation? Falana by occam(m): 4:03pm On Aug 31
nairalanda1:
You did not see where I said that our government's problem is that they are not making enough money.

And you did not see where I pointed out that states cannot increase salaries because they and the federal government have failed because they are not making enough money.

Is pointing out that government has failed in making money the same thing as saying I support APC?

Oga, you people, be as if say you cannot read english.

Modifed

The guy has fourteen likes, which shows the level of education in this country.

Well, as they say, it is a difficult thing to cure people. Very difficult,

Let me make myself clear.

APC is falilng NIgeria by not diversifying the economy and our revenue streams which is why we are not earning enough money to make cash for subsides...which is why we got to vote them out.

Somehow saying the above means I am defending APC.

My God, the level of lack of knowledge among Nigerians is bad. Really bad. They cannot think, they just parrot slogans. And if you do not agree with the parrots, you are their enemies...even when you come to the same conclusion they come to, that APC Must go.
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.
Politics › Re: Throwback Video Of Tinubu In 1999: Come In And Guess His Age by occam(m): 3:17am On Aug 29
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.
Politics › Re: As A Governor, My Cook Was Killing One Cow Everyday & Told Him Stop! — Peter Obi by occam(m): 4:07pm On Aug 25
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
Celebrities › Re: Taiwo Hassan "Ogogo" Dies After Battle With S-4 Cancer by occam(m): 8:22pm On Aug 23
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
Politics › Re: Peter Obi Attends ECFR Summit In Germany (Photos) by occam(m): 5:07pm On Jul 15
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:
Building roads is just like 10% of good governance, which other area is he doing well to deserve accolades?
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
Politics › Re: 2027: Tinubu Is Tired, And Should Leave Office After 2027 Elections - Peter Obi by occam(m): 7:05pm On Jul 08
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
Politics › Re: ‘PFIPC Has No CBN Account’, AGF Contradicts Presidency by occam(m): 7:59pm On Jul 06
Ofunaofu:
They can only contradict themselves not Nigerians

For Nigerians, this is a government run by thieves, scammers, fraudsters, forgers and drug báróns perpetuating the largest heist ever in the history of this country
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
Business › Re: Top 10 Most Industrialised Countries In Africa by occam(m): 4:03pm On Jun 26

Why must you post such an ignorant message just to run Nigeria down.
Politics › Re: I Would’ve Removed Fuel Subsidy In An Organized Manner – Peter Obi by occam(m): 8:52pm On Jun 18
chicfarmer:
Did he even look at the books?
You just dey for field where dem swear you in talk say you don remove subsidy. Wetin you know wey you dey remove?

Okay, the subsidy savings wetin you take am do? You just dey share am out to irresponsible governors while you're burdening the people with more loans. Dem take loan swear for una?
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
Politics › Re: Peter Obi Announces Kwankwaso As His Running Mate (Video) by occam(m): 11:44pm On May 30
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

‎Peter Obi appears to be the only p0litician in Nigeria ready to put his l!fe on the line, at all c0sts, just to see the country progress once again.
‎
‎In a p0litical arena dominated by self-interest and empty promises, Peter Obi stands out as the only p0litician who consistently puts his l!fe on the line, at all c0sts, just to see N!geria rise again.
‎
‎While many leaders play it safe and pr0tect their comfort, Obi has repeatedly shown a rare kind of courage — one that puts national progress above personal safety and p0litical convenience. Whether facing thr£ats, crit!c!sm, or intense opposition, his commitment to good governance, accountability, and youth empowerment remains uπshaken.
‎
‎He doesn’t just talk about chaπge. He lives it. And in doing so, he continues to inspire mill!ons of Nigerians who are tired of the same 0ld stories.
‎
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

Tinubu did everything to get kwankwaso and Gawuna on his side but kwankwaso followed Peter Obi instead.


Campaign should start quickly please, we can't wait.
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.
Politics › Re: Peter Obi's Press Release On the Successful NDC Party Convention (Photo) by occam(m): 2:56pm On May 10
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
Politics › Re: Yunusa Tanko Releases Press Statement Issued By Obidient Movement by occam(m): 9:44pm On May 02
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

Politics › Re: Daily Trust Busted For Lying About Nigeria's Debt Profile Under Tinubu by occam(m): 3:44pm On Mar 27
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)

nairalanda1:
Not much of a success.

first a minority of the industries are manufacturing industries. None of them actively exports or earns much in exporting. None of them makes electronics, vehicles, heavy industrial products , energy industry machinery, even batteries and so forth.

One trillion naira is just 700 million dollars. That's not much

The above list shows how much we have failed as a nation that we do not have the kind of industries and companies that actually solve problems. We just dey full ourselves

APC has failed abeg
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
