Unfortunately River state has the biggest voting block in the South south. Wike gave him a better chance for winning votes, Okowa is a better Person with him for governance. It is clearer that Atiku will come a distant third in this race. He lost the whole of south east, south south will not fully vote for him, most of the youths are with Peter Obi, Tinubu will win the south west cos of tribalism, everyone will share vote from the north.
I said it 8 years ago and I will say it in the next 8 years, Atiku can never and will never win an election in Nigeria. He can take it to the bank and thank me later.
ANNEWHERE: Hello guys, so I paid my CVEC some weeks back, thanks alot for the assistance. I was sent the school account details to make payment for my school fees....but the issue here is am having just 50% of my fees which is 2500. So am kinda of stuck....I don't know if there is any need based scholarship available or some sort of fee wavier in France that can help me out here.
This news outlet has constantly given false information throughout this election season especially with constant talk of Jonathan running under APC. Now they hide under the talk of barring any last minute change.
Blackfire: All this illiterate Peter obi local trader unknown candidate will come here to say rubbish about APC and buhari... forgetting that diesel and gas is cheap in Nigeria
Local unknown candidate
North 2023
Is cheap so come and buy 5 litres for me since it is expensive for me.
IPIGMODS: Scam Peter Obi-tuary can only scam the gullible. He will not even win a single local government not to talk of a state.
Lol. You can call him scam but I am sure you cannot attain his level. Because sometimes humility is what is neded to get to the top. He has never claimed to be poor, he is humble and prudent. Maybe you guys should study the life of Elon Musk that sleeps in his factory, or Warren Buffet that stays in the same house since he was making money.
Those that work for money are prudent in how they spend, na those wen thief or cheat to make money dey show off pass
Kulas: The truth is that even PDP and APC members and supporters knew within themselves that if they have conscience and mean well for Nigerian masses, Peter Obi is the solution. Otherwise why should a human being in their right senses especially our Youth ever dream of mentioning the name Tinubu and Atiku for President in place of Peter Obi
I will explain two factors to you. First Yoruba people are extremely tribalistic, they would prefer their person instead of someone competent. On the other hand, Atiku is a muslim and muslims do not believe they should be governed by Christians. The only time they will agree to be under a Christian is when they are trying to invade your territory. You will hear stuff like 'lets leave in peace, you have your religion and I have my religion, Jesus was a prophet in the bible'. The moment they have the number in your territory, they'll remeber you are an infidel.
To those who say do not play tribal or religious card, the unfortunate thing is that Nigeria is defined by those two things. While you are all planning to vote, prepare your passport to Japa and let those who voted for setimental reasons enjoy the fruit of their labour.
As for me, I will be active on social media laughing at you guys and encouraging you guys to bear for 8 years
IPIGMODS: So I'm supposed to believe the Sun Newspaper when the Pandora papers never mentioned Tinubu. Pls try another lie. If Tinubu's name is in that papers, it will be talk of the media by now especially by HYPOCRITES like you. Bye
Okealaaye: I Inherited N127bn Debt From Obi - Governor Obiano
18th October 2017
By Obiora Aghadinuno
The governor of Anambra State, Chief Willie Obiano has revealed that contrary to the sanctimonious posturing of his predecessor, former Governor Peter Obi, the state was saddled with a huge domestic debt of N127 billion when heleft office in March 2014. Speaking in the Governor’s Lodge, Amawbia, Governor Obiano explained that his silence over the debt his predecessor sought to tie his hands with had been mainly because he did not want to allow his regime to be distracted at inception. He explained that he wanted to concentrate on the delivering his promise of good governance to Ndi Anambra. According to him, the N127 billion debt came mostly from the 101 road contracts that the former governor hurriedly awarded at the dying minutes of his regime without making any provision whatsoever for them in order to create probles for his administration from the very first day. Obiano listed other disingenuous designs by his predecessor to make sure that his regime never really took off. He mentioned the last minute employment of 6000 workers without provision for their welfare as well as the various hotels and independent power projects which he had no plans to complete. He however revealed that he has quietly completed 51 out of the 101 roads and assured Ndi Anambra that the remaining 50 would soon be completed. Obiano’s revelation came on the heels of the growing inconsistencies in the figures being thrown up by Obi which have left many discerning observers wondering just how much the former governor actually left behind. They point at Obi’s sudden volte-face from his earlier declaration that he handed N75 billion cash to his successor and his declaration at the flag off of the PDP campaign in Onitsha yesterday that the actual amount he handed over was N48,626 billion. While delivering an address that has been mostly cdismissed by political analysts as suicidal, Obi was caught on camera saying “when I was leaving this place, we left in savings N26bn. We set aside for important projects, N23,629 billion. If you put the two together, it will come to N48, 626 billion.” The former governor’s contradictory accounts of the exact amount he bequeathed his successor leaves huge gaps in the emerging narrative of dubious accountability and an even more doubtful integrity. This becomes more so in the light of the revelation that in Obi’s so called N75 billion handover are embedded all manner of moribund and toxic assets which he cleverly reported as profitable investments in the handover note. For instance, Obi’s reportage of the 16.5% equity stake in emenite, a fibre cement roof and ceiling manufacturing company set up by the premier of the old Eastern Region, Dr M.I. Okpara, which was shared between the five states that made up the as part of the trumpeted investments he had handed over to Obiano is nothing but pure fraud. Observers also complained that it speaks volumes about Obi’s vaunted integrity to realize that he also reported that he had invested the sum of N3.5 billion in Interfact Beverages Limited, when in reality what he invested was N1.4 billion only. This followed Obiano’s announcement that his administration would soon revise the discrepancy to reflect the actual equity stake of the state in the company. Other dead bodies buried in Obi’s handover note include the N9 billion involuntary investment in the Nigerian Independent Power Project, conceived in 2004 by the Obasanjo regime which the Federation Account was charged to fund on behalf of the 36 states. One wonders how this investment could have found its way into Obi’s phantom savings that he handed over to Obiano in cash. Other components of Obi’s “famous” N75 billion cash handover include the N4 billion estimated value of the land resources of Anambra State on which the oil installations of Orient Petroleum Resources stands which he “cleverly” converted into the state’s shareholding in Orient Petroleum Plc and quickly reported as his own wise investment while in actuality, the only investment in the company when Obi handed over was the N100 million invested by former governor Chris Ngige who also issued the C of O for the land. Another embarrassing falsehood reported as part of the N75 billion cash handover is the Federal Government refund to Anambra State on the repair of federal roads in the state which stood at N10 billion during Obi’s regime. It smacks of utter mischief to report this debt owed the state by the Federal Government as a part of the cash handover as the Federal Government has yet to clear the debt while the Obiano regime has responded to more distress calls on federal roads in the state, pushing the debt overhang now to N43.8 billion to date. Indeed, Obi’s ill-advised decision to speak up on the actual amount he left his successor has blown up on the faces of his admirers who cringe at the embarrassing inconsistencies in his accounts which now dangles between N75 billion and N48,626 billion. At this rate, many political observers bet that Obi may not have any reputational capital left by the end of the current electoral campaign in Anambra State.
You post allegation, also post the reply. Oga has replied every allegation and he said go and verify. Lol. Just this one article when dem don reply you still dey post. You get another one?? Even Tinubu and Atiku cannot face media to defend their own allegations
IPIGMODS: That's why his name showed up on the PANDORA list? Pls try another lie. This man invested govt money into his own family business. Do we all get the opportunity to use govt money for our businesses? No we don't.
And where did Tinubu's name show up?? Just incase you dint know, Tinubu's name was among but because baba no clean, e no fit come media to clear himself
IPIGMODS: Peter Obi-tuary is a fraud. Nothing to show for 8 years of governing Anambra. His only achievement is investing Anambra money into his own family business. Go figure.
One of the few governors without Fraud charge or case. Even Fashola had website scandal
The difference between this and APC and PDP is that people here are not looking for money and are gathering based on their own willingness. APC and PDP are on the other hand are looking of money and if them no pay them, everything go scatter
ygowon: I used to support you Sowore but this your childish outburst just confirmed you are not even matured to be a Councillor not to talk of a local government chairman and you are eyeing precidency. Who dash monkey banana?
Peter Obi instructed his supporters not to insult, fight nor talk down on anyone and that he is Nigerian and wishes to serve other Nigerians. Sowore needs to study Peter Obi. He has never talked down on any opponent. Sowore is far from winning.
I tell una say Sowore is only after his pocket, una dey talk fighting for Nigeria. See a man's character and you'll know his purpose.
RexTramadol1: Lol, fact and figures is comparing China to Nigeria
Very funny
So you make progress by having a goal and a mentor. You have to look up to someone doing it well. China couldn't stand Nigeria some decades back so what have they done? We should study and emulate.
I guess many of you don't even know simple principles to success that's why you depend on stealing government resources and begging online
Spherical17: what is there to shock us please? We all know Tinubu will win, we all know Obi won't come third position in the general election, we all know Atiku will come second and return to his base in Dubai, we all know 1 state election results will be more than the whole south east votes
What's there to shock us biko?
Tinubu that is already sending Thugs in Lagos because he might not win Lagos? Lol. E go shock you. Sha collect your payment before election
Spherical17: They have the bulk of votes. They determine the outcome of any general election. After North is south west
The goal of a party is to win. They careless who the person is nor his religion
If APC should bring forth someone like Zulum or Shetima then forget it APC will clear the northern votes
Bulk vote with under aged children. 2023 shall expose the reality of voters number in each region and you'll all be shocked that those northern vote talk is bullsht
Are you saying the state don't generate any revenue from those facilities at all?? Answer that and you'll understand other things about economics and finance. ✌️
Echoban: Despite the high debt if Lagos, do u know world bank will prefer to give our loan to Lagos before considering Anambra??
Because if them size Lagos, the airport, seaport and companies head quarters go be better collateral. Lagos success is only because it was formerly the capital. If he sure Tinubu, make e govern another state.
WesternOligarch: Great societies are built on credit/debt. It's no wonder most of the states on that list bring the least to the table in terms of IGR.
Phlemsive2: where is your verdict that Peter Obi didn’t perform in his state, based on the igbos in Lagos, Lagos has been the mind of commerce even before the emergence of Tinubu as the Governor. And if I may tell you Igbos has improved the Economic growth of Lagos state big time.
During Peter Obi tenure as the governor, the turn up Anambra got was so drastic positively, pls kindly make your research well.
Peter Obi told them to verify and they still cannot just go and verify.
2019 elections debate where he floored Obi already showed Obi is no match for him
So if he could lose a primary to moneybag
Don’t deceive yourself, na who get money pass get vote pass
Block votes dey north, as even if south turn out en masse dem still no reach north and na dat north be anywhere belle face
You mean consolation minister?? He did not floor anyone in debate at any point. Obi gave facts and figure while he only talked about fighting corruption which we are still waiting for the result. In other words, Osibanjo is not even qualified to rule Nigeria.
Makowonda: Obi is trying,he is gaining clout.But in a realistic term Nigeria still belong to APC and PDP for now.He may succeed in 2027 or 2031 if he persists.
Lol. What did you observe during EndSars?? #notbusinessasusual.
The goal of discouraging people is over. Rigging is now more difficult. Nigeria on the rise
