Nobody will rate ikpeazu because the man is a disaster
Oh lest i forget i remember you afonjas hailing rochas at a point a while back to become igbo president
Even ngige too
Don't worry ehn obi is coming to put an end to stomach infrastructure and chop chop politics
You will actually earn what you work for
Cheers

Then how come are people comparing Tinubu's administration with PO. In what universe is Peter Obi better than Tinubu?

hammerT:
ALL IS NOT FAIR, AS U PUT IT.


IT IS NOT FAIR FOR THE WHOLE NIGERIA, BRITAIN AND ALLY TO GANG UP AND COMMIT GENOCIDE AGAINST SOUTH EASTERN NIGERIA, BECAUSE OF OUR OIL AND GAS WEALTH.



BLOCKADE IS A WAR CRIME.

Never start a war you can't win.

enemybulldozer:
I want you to clarify me clearly on what you wrote up here. Because I don't really understand what you mean by south Africans hate igbos, Indonesia hate igbos, Malaysian police hate igbos and so on and so forth.

Let me start by asking you some questions...
When south Africans started their xenophobic attacks in their country, were they asking their victims if they are Igbo before killing them? Were they killing only Igbos or were they killing nigerians in general??

When did you consult the Malaysian people or their government concerning Igbos living in their country and they tell you that they hate Igbos?
All the countries you mentioned that hates only igbo, how did you come about that?
You can only answer these questions if you are a truthful person.

Lastly, you and reno should tell Igbos why the northerners killed igbos in 1945 and 1953 was there any Igbo coup as of then?

Igbos are know for playing victimisation card every time.
Just last week when that video trended of Lagos State Government auctioning cars of traffic defaulters, I went to Facebook. You should have seen the number of Igbos saying Lagos State is only aunctioning cars owned by Igbos.

hammerT:
THIS WRITE UP BY RENO OMOKRI IS A COMPLETE REVISIONIST HISTORY.



I DONT KNOW WHY THIS MAN, FEELS THE NEED OR URGE TO ATTACH HIMSELF TO EVERY IGBO AFFAIR IN NIGERIA.



HE KEEPS DISPLAYING HIS IGNORANCE.


THE 1966 COUP WAS NOT THE ONLY COUP IN NIGERIA.



WE HAD SEVERAL OTHER COUPS, INCLUDING THE GIDEON ORKAR COUP.




DO WE LABEL THEM FULANI COUP, TIV COUP, ETC.



THE 1966, COUP IS NO EXCUSE FOR GENOCIDE AGAINST THE PEOPLE OF THE EAST, AFTERALL, THE PEOPLE DID NOT COMMIT ANY COUP, THIS WAS A COUP BY POLITICAL ACTORS, FOLLOWED BY A COUNTER COUP AND SEVERAL OTHER COUPS.


THE LAND, SEA AND AIR BLOCKADE OF BIAFRA AND THE GENOCIDE, THAT COST BETWEEN 3 TO 5 MILLION LIVES, CAN NEVER BE JUSTIFIED.


RENO FORGOT TO STATE THAT THE REASON BRITAIN SUPERVISED THE GENOCIDE OF IGBO PEOPLE WAS BECAUSE OF OIL AND GAS DISCOVERED IN THE SE REGION.

YES, LET ANOTHER WAR HAPPEN, WE SET THE DATE FOR 2023.

Unfortunately, all is fair in love.
America detonated 2 nuclear bombs in Japan. Today Japan have moved on.
Prof Uju should move on.

swagficient:
This is the kind of initiatives I want for the rest of Nigeria, but y'all too blinded by sentiments to vote people with good leadership qualities.

5 years ago, I'll never in my life think Nigerians would compare Tinubu and Peter Obi.
It's quite shocking.

Its quite sad that in 20 years time, if Sanwo Olu and Ikpeazu are contesting for Presidency in 2 different parties, some people will rate Ikpeazu better.

Difrent:
Igbos feel they are marginalized
Igbos feel someone somewhere is out to control them.....ironically using their kinsmen
YET
They deceive themselves they are independent minded
Something must be wrong with the igbos then

What we other Nigerians know is that its insatiable GREED and ENVY.thats the driving force of all igbo actions. The same greed and envy made ZIK want to control eastern and western region only for your likes to claim he was used . Authur Nzeribes greed and envy made him allow himself to be used to truncate june 12

That guy that instituted the suit most likely sold out his tribe for a pot of porridge.

Yes such people exist in other tribes but it's only igbos that pretend such dont exist among them.

You forgot to add Michael Okpara who advised Zik to shun Awolowo and side with the Fulanis.

Black people are really the most difficult to rule. See what is coming out of this black man's digital ink.

Tinubu is not yet dead, even if he's seen as a working corpse. In a situation where his competitor lacks the requisite knowledge and portfolio, Tinubu could be managed. Don't you get it?

Zero (0) can be used as a number in the absence of none. Remember, a choice has to be made amongst bad alternatives irrespective of their nature. And since a choice has to be made In the midst of worse, then, bad becomes a lifeline.

My being as a youth, should not automatically be seen as success in governance, if there exist knowledge-gap in my portfolio as regards government. In that case, Tinubu should be embrace to do the job, if there's no young man armed with the requisite knowledge, capacity and experience for such position.

These two bolded paragraphs gives a clear explanation to what you envIsage up there. Please, digest it comprehensively.

If there's a 0.0000001% chance you'll choose Tinubu over any well educated youth without a criminal background then I see no reason to continue this conversation.

Again let's go disagree. Tinubu is my choice. Peter Obi is your choice. No harm done.

Seniorwriter:
Nice but SMH ...
It's high time Nigerians get the orientation that leaders are elected to do such things and stop the hyping when they perform their roles haven been elected .
The mentality of singing praises over a basic social amenity is sickening.
Do these leaders not get huge fat allowances and monthly salaries whilst in those positions of leadership? Or is it not the nations revenue and tax payers monies they use to execute project(s) so why the fuse and noise @OP and likes.

Thanks for quoting ....
Stay Woke.
Hope you have a residual income too...

SMH @you and your kind of mindset.


We need young visionary leaders abeg.

@Seniorwriter

You mean we shouldn't praise Messi and Ronaldo and Halaand and Neymar and Mbappe when they score a goal because that's what they were paid to do after all?

EndsarsReloaded:
But Nigeria's fake data will even tell you that many cities are more built up and more populated than Onitsha.

The most notorious fake statistics agency is that their NBS. Little wonder nothing works in Nigeria.

SMH!

But you believe a statistics that says Lagos is the 2nd most unliveable city in the world ba?

Somebody will look you in the eye and tell you that not Borno, not Sokoto, not a war torn desolate city in Ukraine that nobody is living in, not a city in America where a teenager will wake up at the wrong side of the bed, go to a school filled with kids and spray bullets but Lagos State is the 2nd worst city in the whole wide world and because you hate Tinubu, you'll believe wholeheartedly.


Is there wisdom there?

kushma:
Although this is a good idea, but it will lead to loss of jobs of average people working in those sectors, it might be better the merge them with other sectors and crop out unnecessary ones. But when will they talk about reducing bogus salaries of these politicians. Senators etc

Who will talk about reduction in the senators bogus salaries if not the senators themselves.
Them nor born any President papa to try reduce am.
Even Buhari wey try remove senate budget padding, them nor gree sign 2016 budget. Any President that wants to work should leave senators salaries and do other things. If not dem go show him papa shege.

Everything Peter Obi supporters accuse every other politician of doing is being done by Peter Obi.

1. Cross carpeting.
Peter Obi moved from APGA to PDP to Labour. Regardless of the reason, it will be hypocritical of criticising other politician for cross carpeting and justify Peter Obi for doing so.
Peter Obi cross carpeted for personal interest. Nothing more nothing less.

2. Corruption.
Peter Obi has several corruption case on his head.
Failing to declare some of his asset and claiming that it was because it is a joint asset with his daughter.
Before you justify that action, would you justify the act if it was done by a politician that is not someone you're fan of?
Peter Obi pumped public money into a company he has shares in.
He pumped public money in family business.
Peter Obi was vice presidential candidate the only vice President in the history of Nigeria (in the persob of Atiku) whose boss (Obasanjo) wrote a whole page of his corruption background. If that's not corruption, then nothing is corruption.

3. Broken promise.
Obi was captured on live TV swearing he will never leave APGA, saying he will die the day he lives. Since that day he has left to two different parties.

4. Desperation.
What else gives a desperate politician than one who moves from party to party.

5. Lies
Peter Obi is best known for his lies.
The most recent one of which he lied on TV that Tinubu's follower advised Yorubas not to vote for PO because PO will build a seaport in the SE and SS which will decongest Lagos'.
Peter Obi knew fully well that the person that made that post (Powell) was his own supporter that was why he asked the person that read aloud the post to no mention the posters name.

Peter Obi lied he has only one watch and shoe pair whereas numerous pics and videos shows he wear more than one watch and shoe.

6. Sharing monies and goodies during election period.
There's a popular pic of Peter Obi dashing his fans money during the 2019 election period.

Peter Obi is no different from the average Nigerian politicians. What makes him stand out is his trying to paint himself as a righteous person.

The truth doesn't always have to be bitter.

Gkemz:
He's doing nothing other than fighting former governor. Empowering uniformed touts such as Entraco, OCDA, ISTMA, DTI, IGR, etc to go after motorist and business people and extort money from them. He has never constructed road that last beyond 1 month. All he is to do uneven patches on the portholes. The roadpaths Rochas created is the one he's patching and taking credit of.

Funny enough, this was the kind of comments people were saying in Nairaland during Peter Obi's tenure.

Fast forward to 2022, the same people are actually comparing Peter Obi with Bola Tinubu.

Is God not wonderful?

The truth is that there's no Governor people will not complain about. There are still some people in Lagos that will look you in the eye and say Fashola did not work.

JoeyNaza:
Must you guys be dense. No wonder, Agbado is said to be poisonous to the mind.

Queen Elizabeth was part of whatever Uju was angry about.

Peter Obi and 70% of SE were below 18 then so where is their role in an " alleged " tribal coup.

Was the Yoruba guy that participate in the coup also an Igbo. Use brain

Igbos like Ike Nwachukwu fought on the side of Nigeria during the civil war. From the logic of your last sentence, it means the war was never between Nigeria VS Igbos because Igbos also fought on Nigeria's side.

AstraDroid:
Why is Seun so silly?

I never knew the chauvinistic part of him until he decided to sign up a twitter account. In a generation when Nigeria is supposed to be talking about uniting, he continues to act out his low bandwidth of consciousness.

I bet you were part of those people that praised Nnamdi Kanu for "uniting" Nigeria before his arrest.

See people that were supporting Professor Uju for wishing the late queen an excruciating death. People that didn't condemn her for reopening old wounds that happened more than half a century ago.
They are now disguising as Northerners to condemn Seun.

In that case, Tinubu should be embrace to do the job, if there's no young man armed with the requisite knowledge, capacity and experience for such position.

In this case, Tinubu is not the only one that fits into this position, when considering corruption, competence and agility. For me, it's greed, selfishness and "it's my turn" mentality that is making him bent on assuming this position. Even majority of his supporters are doing so because he had at one time or the other supported them. But governance should not be seen as such.

So you mean you will prefer an "old, sick, corrupt" Tinubu over yourself that is young, healthy and non corrupt to rule Nigeria?

You confuse me. Don't Nigeria need a young, vibrant president with no certificate or family background scandal anymore? So you'll prefer Tinubu over your esteemed self?

imadiyi:
My dear what you have just said is true. The three frontrunners are good and okay as president of the country. However, they all have their shortfalls, weaknesses and limitations belligerently against them; same way they have their strength.

Atiku is a good choice, but he's so desperate and corrupt. His greed and desperation did not allowed him to speak the truth when he new vividly that it is the turn of the south to produce the next president of Nigeria. His actions towards the deletion of his tweets over Deborah's death in Sokoto, and his present stand of his refusal to asked Ayu to step down as the PDP national chairman speaks of how desperate he can be. This desperation and half-truth may not allowed him to set his priorities right, if given the chance.

As for Tinubu, TBT, his limitations are numerous. He's old and sick, he looks pale and dementia—going by his recent look, comments and actions. He's highly corrupt, and intelligent to the extent of not being caught. How he'd been able to drilled a hole in Lagos State treasury remain a misery to law enforcement agencies in Nigeria—a person who has been out of government since 2017, with no known company or investment, other than TVC. Every company or investment traced to him, he denied. Also, his family, education background and wealth are questionable. Majority of his allies and godsons are very corrupt like him, and are ready to devour the remains of Nigeria; which is basically the reason they are ready to die, to ensure he wins.

Obi on his part, may not have been on the country's corruption spotlight as compared to the two others. He's however not left out, as the issue of Pandora, which he never denied, but gave a clumsy explanation, remain undefined to the understanding of every Nigerian. Aside that, we have not heard of any other. But going by his personal and administrative attributes, he seems to be the better option among the three. Also, remember that, as it stands, Obi has no godfather that he's answerable to, in the event he wins.

Conclusively, from my perspective, I think Obi, or all other candidates (not Atiku and Tinubu) should be well "x-rayed" for who to be considered as the third force. My cent

It is really simple for me when it comes to who to elect.

Intentions and plans are only as valid, reliable and trustworthy as antecedents.

What you will do is only as credible as what you had done or built. Reputation is based on past deeds or performance.

Intentions without any credible record of past performance is mere wishful thinking.

I won’t buy your intention to build a skyscraper when you haven’t built anything before.

So, what you plan to do derives credibility from what you have done before or in the past.

For me, only one candidate stands out in this regard. And that candidate is Tinubu.

imadiyi:
Of course, you may be right. Tinubu has a knack for assembling technocrats, but my fear is, those technocrats he so much believe on, may disappoint him; just like what we are experiencing today. If it was during his youthful age, when he was energetic, with sound mental alertness, no doubt, everybody will go for him. As it is today, we shouldn't deceived ourselves, Tinubu can not Work the talk.

I doubt.
The tecnocrat Governors he put in place to succeed him are still following his Lagos blueprint. They would have taken him for a ride he they perceived he was weak.

Tinubu was the candidate that covered the most states to canvass for votes for the APC primaries despite his alleged sickness. He was energetic enough to stay awake all throughout the primary result calling even when youths like me went to bed.

I wanna ask you a question.
I'm sure you're a youth between 25-40.
If you were asked choose between yourself and Tinubu to rule Nigeria, would you choose yourself?
Would you say because you're much younger and healthier than Tinubu you would be more competent than Tinubu to rule a country like Nigeria?

I want an honest reply to this question.

Well, we can agree to disagree.
Tinubu's track record, in my opinion, nullifies all his flaws and weaknesses.

nazicartel:
Even Okezuo Ikpeazu the failure has pictures of him commissioning something. Benue state governor even have pictures of him commissioning something. Infact even if you're Lucifer's incanate as a governor. You must commission something in 8yrs. You can't support Tinubu foolishly and won't sound mad

Post a verifiable pic/videos and you're preaching about Lucifer?

Enough of all these paper policies and theoretical leaders. We need leaders with experience and a grassroots understanding to rule this country.

How will a man with a private university and generator company to his name solve the problem of Assu, and epileptic power failure? Won't it be another round of privatisation?

The Presidential position is not an avenue for a test run. Rather, we need pragmatic and realistic leaders to rule. Peter Obi possesses these characteristics and further has the integrity and charisma to rule.

Support Obi today. We don't need a perennial contestant. If he loves Nigeria enough, he will give these paper plans to President Buhari to boost up his already failed tenure.

Kindly check my signature below for your academic research services

How will a man with 6 months ASUU strike and 13 months doctors' strike to his name solve ASUU strike and doctors' strike?

As much as I don't like Atiku, what he said is the truth. Nigeria need become a full blown capital society that the function of the Government should be to act as a and super tax with over rich and share their wealth to the society.

Peter Obi is good but what he does is talk about all the problems we all know about and quote figures.

My 2023 choice is Tinubu. He is the only one with best track record on how to run an economy.
