A man who was eating directly from the table of Abacha at a time when true fighters of democracy were being killed, jailed and exiled can not turn around and be a voice for democracy. It’s even more embarrassing that this desperado never conducted local government elections for the entire 8 years that he served as governor of Anambra state.

ALTERNATEID:
Peter Obi is not defending anybody’s right. He’s just a shameless and desperate opportunist who want to grab power by force.

Kemetian:
Your 'position' seems pretty clear. 😂

You're not a fan of the idea. 😂

Kemetian:
I don't understand your position.

What is wrong with bamboo houses as low cost, affordable housing?

helinues:
After all, they never prayed for ordinary 1 km to be constructed so that they can be vindicated that the project was just for mouth.

Even when 30km was constructed , they were still claiming it was 5km, 10km just because they just can't believe it.

Hahaha, it's 30km completed. Even the linking roads to the highway are not counted as part of the 30km completed.

If you have opposed the project when it was initiated, please don't use it

Ofemannnu:
Liar.
Tinubu didn't say that rubbish.
Tinubu never said that.

richiemcgold:
Where was Peter obi during this time of serious activism?

President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has taken a swipe at opposition parties, declaring that it was a “pleasure” to witness the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and Labour Party (LP) in disarray.

The president made the remarks on Thursday during a joint sitting of the National Assembly to mark this year’s Democracy Day, where he also welcomed defectors from the opposition into the All Progressives Congress (APC).

“You are all welcome to the progressive fold. Nobody should close the door,” Tinubu said in a jab at the internal divisions plaguing opposition parties. “It is indeed a pleasure to witness you in such a disarray.”

The president mocked parties that appear shaken by recent defections and political realignments, saying that rather than panicking, they should introspect.

“Political parties fearful of members leaving may be better served by examining their internal processes and affairs, rather than fearfully conjuring up demons that do not exist,” he said.

In a more sardonic tone, Tinubu added, “For me, I will not say, try your best to put your house in order. I will not help you to do so, either.”

The comments came amid reports of growing cracks within both the PDP and LP, with several key members expressing dissatisfaction and exploring options with the ruling APC.

Tinubu’s statement drew mixed reactions from lawmakers present at the session, with APC members applauding and opposition figures visibly displeased.

President Tinubu has previously emphasised the importance of a strong opposition for democracy, but his latest comments suggest little sympathy for parties struggling to maintain internal unity.

attackgat:
Shortly after Tinubu won the 2023 Presidential race, Anchorman, Seun Okinbaloye, asked Reno Omokri if he would ever work with Tinubu:

Seun: If Bola Tinubu approaches you to work with you, would you?

Omokri: Someone from Tinubu's camp has already reached out to me and I told the person I can't do it. It cannot happen. It's just against my principles. Some people can do that but it's not in my DNA, I can't do it, it's never going to happen. I wish Tinubu well if the courts upholds his election, but I can never work with him

OP there's nothing more to say. After fighting tooth and nail to keep PDP alive, the runaways Atiku and co came back thinking that they could discard Wike like a used tissue paper.

Former Labour Party presidential candidate, Peter Obi, has donated laptops, printers, and a total of ₦6 million to the Government Secondary School in Chibok, Borno State, as part of his commitment to improving education and infrastructure in underserved communities.

In a statement shared via his official account on X (formerly Twitter) on Wednesday, Obi revealed that he was moved to action after activist Aisha Yesufu informed him of the dire conditions at the school—infamously known as the site of the 2014 Boko Haram abduction of over 200 schoolgirls, with more than 70 still unaccounted for.

According to Obi, the school, which serves over 2,500 students, had just one desktop computer, lacked functional laboratories, and had no access to electricity. Yesufu had initially appealed for the donation of two additional computers and the installation of solar lighting for at least one classroom.


Although Obi expressed a desire to visit the school personally, he said he was advised against it due to ongoing security concerns. Instead, a meeting was arranged in Abuja with leaders from the Chibok community, during which Obi presented: 10 laptops, 3 printers and a ₦6 million cash donation, divided equally among three projects: equipping the school’s laboratory, setting up a computer classroom, and providing a handheld motorized borehole.


Obi clarified that his gesture was not a mere donation but a “sincere commitment” to the future of the community, vowing to do more to support education and development in neglected areas.

“Occasions like this are deeply disturbing,” Obi wrote. “They cause me to reflect on our national priorities and the rising costs of misgovernance.”

He criticized the contrast between the neglect of critical sectors like education and the luxurious lifestyle of public officials, lamenting that students across the country still lack basic resources while billions are spent on non-essential government projects.

Calling for a national reassessment, Obi urged Nigerians to prioritize education, healthcare, and poverty alleviation, describing these as the true foundations of a developed and equitable society

helinues:
Add Obama or Trump to the coalition, they would still receive beating

You guys can't be claiming ObI is the best but still be going for vice president position instead of the presidency . Except if Best has new meaning for una side

Bentacur007:
Why mentioning Obi everyday?

You're tripping on yourself while trying to sound smart

ribbit:
This is why you have an actual accountant running the economy.
This person that actually turned 50 million revenue to 60billion
instead of someone that claimed to study market to market economy. (Whatever that means) But increased poverty in anambra.

His only achievement is saving imaginary money and beeg company, so that his minions can drink and forget their problems.
