The same strategy that pdp used from 99 till 15 that landed us in a kind of mess before being ousted by the Apc? Or the one the Apc has been using from then on that hasn't landed us yet, but still free falling us deep down into the abyss of development failure? Something is definitely wrong with you! Just that something I don't know. I mean, who the hell wants Apc to remain in power? Or wants us to go back to the days of pdp? After what these two have done to us, if anybody desires them, then certainly, that person is not human.

As expected. Continue the insults and cursing and bullying.

It's a free world, vote your candidate I vote mine

Obidient and vawulence are 5 & 6. Continue making everyone your enemy. That strategy na the best.

What Buhari commanded was what? Inorganic?

Worship your Obi in peace but don't lie and also understand that at this point you are exactly like Buharideens in 2015 chanting Febuhari. We still remember how we told them not to take humans as messiahs.

Buhari's incompetence was as clear as dstv. Only ethnic,tribal and religious bigots saw nothing wrong in him.

BluntTheApostle:
Those who did that to GEJ were expressing their grievances.

Obi's supporters are displaying intolerance.

They are two different things.

Those grievances have they been resolved?

Insecurity: last year, i spent over 30% of my earnings on flight tickets because of insecurity in the North. During GEJ era, security agents will be specific on roads that are free but now, no security agents can tell you that a particular route is free or not again.

Economy: Let me not talk about this because time and space will fall me to say what is before us now compare to what we have before.

Areas like fuel queue, flight tickets, exchange rate, debts management etc demand anger from all Nigerians.

BluntTheApostle:
Say only what you know.

He doesn't even come close to Buhari.

And you people need to calm down. All these followers may not even be up to 20,000.

Buhari's incompetence was as clear as dstv. Only ethnic,tribal and religious bigots saw nothing wrong in him.

Peter Obi is a standard.

Tinubu is combination of OPC and Boko Haram. Atiku is Bandit

While Obi is Ipob terrorists,you don't need to be bias.


This means they are all thesame.

WHY PETER OBI WON’T BE THE NEXT PRESIDENT OF NIGERIA

By Dr. Sunday Adelaja.


4. The investment of state money in his own family business which he didn’t deny. Peter Obi claimed that the company belonged to his parents, and he had no dealings in it after he became a public officer. He stated this in response to a question by Kadaria Ahmed, host of ‘The Candidates’, a presidential town hall co-production between Daria Media and the Nigerian Television Authority (NTA), with support from the MacArthur Foundation, held in Abuja in 2019. In his words “Personally, I have no investment; not even one Naira. Go to Corporate Affairs Commission (CAC) today, if you will see Peter Obi as owner of one share; it doesn’t exist. Next is a family company started by my own parents and as their child, I ran it at a time, and when I became Governor, I had nothing to do with it till today.” What does Governor Peter Obi understand by the oath he swore to on assumption of office: ”that I will not allow my personal interest to influence my official conduct or any official decisions.” Let’s see another self-indicting statement from the horse’s mouth, “I also invested $50million of Anambra State money in the power sector. I invested several billions in banks, including banks where I have shares. I was investing for the future of the state; it doesn’t matter whether I have shares or not. If I have the opportunity of building the future of the state, wouldn’t I have done that?” He continues in his boastful manner “I brought International Breweries into Nigeria and as a Governor of a state, they built a greenfield facility in the state and they came to me and said ‘as our partner, we want you to own 15 per cent of this company’, and I said to them ‘No, right now, I am the Governor of a state. I know the future of this brewery, and I want the state to own 10 per cent and since I’m no longer involved in the company, they can own five per cent’. I put in $30million of state money there, it’s now worth $100million and it’s still there. No other state in this country has such investment.” Unfortunately, the investment he said would benefit the state has now crashed and turned to a big liability worth only at most $5 million today. If Nigeria were to be a society of law and order, Peter Obi should be serving jail terms based on his own public confession. Instead of Peter Obi to hide his head in shame or at least repent before Anambra people he is now trying to go to a higher stage to become the President of Nigeria. He actually boasts about these his compromising investments, selling it to Nigerians as his ingenuity. Compare that to what Tinubu did in Lagos. He invested 4 billion Naira of the state into a certain Econet company and brought back 19 billion before he left office. Please note that Tinubu didn’t invest the money in his family business, apart from that the results here are totally different. So who will I rather have as the president? Your guess is as good as mine.
5. I speak now as a representative of one of the nationalities of Nigeria that Nnamdi Kanu and Ipob aggressively insulted and abused. I expect anyone from the Igbo extractions wanting to rule over all the tribes and nationalities in Nigeria to first condemn and apologize for the actions of Ipob and Nnamdi Kanu. I can’t see Peter Obi’s statement against the excesses of Nnamdi Kanu and Ipob. Rather I saw him defending Ipob on channel TV, saying he disagrees with the government designating them as a terrorist organization. How can someone with a clear conscience defend Ipob and not apologize to other Nigerians. You cannot spend years keeping quiet about the degrading of all tribes and nationalities in Nigeria and now expect them to vote for you. Either we like it or not the North still control the majority of votes in Nigeria, without their votes no one can emerge as Nigerian president. Those votes will be divided between Atiku and Tinubu, Peter needs to build a bridge with the North in a more purposeful manner. This has to start by making his position clear on Ipob and Biafra’s agitations. You cannot say you are a Biafra agitator and want to become Nigerian President. Anambra is still doing sit at home till today what is he doing about it, let him use his popularity to first put his own house in order. This is not the only apology that must come from Peter Obi, he also must apologize to Northerners and Westerns specifically for his own direct assault on peoples of these regions. Let’s go back in history, Peter Obi demonstrated a form of hate and discrimination to these peoples. The way he treated them after the Onitsha crisis of 2006, over 100 Northerners were killed, markets belonging to them burnt down. That’s isn’t what Obi should apologize for though, for he wasn’t in power when that happened he came only a few months after that incident. It was his duty to clean up the mess. Peter needs to apologize for the way he treated the victims. He took away their markets, he shunned two Emirs from the North who were sent on emissary to plead with him, worse of all he rejected the pleas of Sultan of Sokoto who came down to him to beg him for a peaceful settlement of the issue. Those surviving northerners and westerners had to relocate to Asaba where they are till today. There are several issues like this coming from the time of Peter Obi’s governorship in Anambra. It should also be noted that Peter Obi likewise deported people of Northern extraction back to Kaduna during his tenure as the governor of Anambra state. Unfortunately for him, the North never forgets, Southerners might forget and forgive, but Northerners will ask questions because they remember. So the chance of Peter Obi getting a large enough number of votes to become a President without the North is equal to zero.
6. Peter Obi from his antecedents is a desperate User and Exploiter. Peter Obi is not better than Atiku, neither is he better than Tinubu, his Labour Party is not better if not worse than PDP and APC. Unfortunately, Nigerians are more driven by emotions and sentiments rather than by critical thinking and analysis. If Peter Obi could be a member of PDP more so a leader there, their vice presidential flag bearer, it means he encapsulates and embraces the essence and values of that party. He could not be a vice presidential candidate and not be aware of the corruption and vote buying that led to his emergence as the Vice President to Atiku. It also shows that he Peter Obi agrees with Atiku, his values and practices. No wonder a few days ago he was seen cajoling around the worst ruler alive in Nigeria, the Maradona himself Ibrahim Babangida. Others have speculated that he is being sponsored by former President Olusegun Obasanjo. Listen, Peter Obi is not a better man than these men, but a worse man because he disguises his parochial selfish ambition under the canopy of self-righteousness. The only reason he is now Born Again is because PDP was not willing to help him realize his personal ambition to use them to become President of Nigeria, which is a clear behavioural pattern of a User and Exploiter. He is now doing it again by exploiting and using the social media crowd for his own personal ambition. According to the people who know Peter Obi better than you and I, what they say about him is not very palatable. Especially from those people who were in the same parties with him at one time or the other. According to them, Obi is a serial betrayer, user and exploiter, not a disciplined party man. He is only driven by self-interest, howbeit in a subtle and cold-blooded manner. So PDP was not doing anything wrong when he was their VP candidate, now he is painting a picture of holier-than-thou as why he had to leave PDP. Didn’t he know that Atiku was corrupt when he agreed to run with him. The governor of Rivers’s state and the leadership of APGA think Peter Obi is a user, exploiter and betrayer. APGA is still calling him an accursed person till today. He once took a vow never to leave APGA, but let them down because he couldn’t use them on the national level to become the President of Nigeria. He used and exploited APGA to become the governor, telling them all the things they wanted to hear until they trusted him with power. Peter Obi in his characteristic manner also used, exploited and dumped Anambra state, before moving on to Lagos and Abuja, this time to use and exploit Nigeria. Peter Obi wants to use Labour Party which is a platform totally different from all the capitalist values Peter Obi stood for all his life. Labour Party is a leftist socialist party according to their constitution while Peter Obi is a conservative capitalist who had lived and destroyed all the values Labour fought for always. Peter Obi will use and exploit them again while hiding his true identity. When they don’t deliver him the presidency, he will again betray and dump them. This is his track record, his pattern of behaviour, his method and approach to life. It’s the only thing he knows and does; use, exploit and betray. It’s difficult to think he won’t do the same with those Nigerians trusting him today, he will use, exploit and later betray them.
7. Many Nigerians are not aware of the N250 million allegedly found in the convoy of the governor of Anambra State, Peter Obi in June 2009. He was once caught with 250 million security votes money that his security convoys were trying to smuggle out, as his opponents suggested. This is most likely a case of money laundering, they were caught in Lagos and the case was buried by the then government of the day. The only explanation Obi gave then came through his Media Assistant saying and I quote; “The money belonged to a government contractor who preferred to carry cash to buy vehicles ordered by government”. Questions remain on why the money should be with the governor’s aid. Do you know that in Europe if the authorities find you with such amount of cash, you stand a good chance of getting 10 years imprisonment. The point I’m trying to make is when you do a thorough search and research on Peter Obi, you’ll come to the same conclusion as myself that he isn’t the Messiah Nigeria needs at this time in her history.
8. My next reason why Peter Obi is not our next President is that I believe Asiwaju is better. The academic qualification of Asiwaju is better, but even more important than that the results on ground of Asiwaju’s works are more convincing. The results of their stewardship convince me that Bola Ahmed Tinubu is a better manager of men and resources. You only need to take a look at the two states governed by the two of them to know who is better. Jesus said we should judge people by their fruits. I cannot see the abiding fruits of Peter Obi’s stewardship in Anambra state, or anywhere else but I see Asiwaju’s fruits in Lagos. Hence most of the non-indigenes in Lagos come from Anambra state, they find a better platform here than at home. It’s one of the biggest testimonies to the one who is better of the two. But more than that I want to provide you some arguments that should convince an objective seeker that Tinubu deserves to be President ahead of Peter Obi. (1) TINUBU was the first politician to start "Economic Summit" this talks about the visionary sagacity of the man. (2)TINUBU pioneered the "Treasury Single Account (TSA)". This was later adopted by the Federal Government with much success. (3) TINUBU was about to put an end to electricity problem by starting "Independent Power Project" in partnership with Enron in Lagos state. If not for Obasanjo and PDP government who forced Tinubu to give up the power to national grid, there wouldn’t be the problem of electricity in Lagos state by now. (4) TINUBU introduced "Digital Economy" to governance through Lagos Tax Administration. I believe he can repeat that at the national level. (5) TINUBU as a Governor "Created 37 Local Govt. Council Development Areas (LCDAs)". This is a major part of restructuring that many are only clamoring for now. (6)TINUBU brought innovation to education when he began to appoint Pupils who Excelled Academically as Acting Governor of Lagos. (7) TINUBU was the first Governor to involve Nigerians from other states to work and become officials of Lagos state government. ( TINUBU was first to break the master plan machinery of elections rigging in Nigeria thereby helping to reclaim SouthWest states stolen mandates from PDP. (9)TINUBU was the first and last Governor who governed his state for years without the full Federal Allocation (FAAC) from Abuja. (10) TINUBU was the leader who started Telecommunication revolution in Nigeria through Econet before it became a national success story. Many more things could be said, I believe Tinubu is head and shoulders above any other candidates in this race, that including Peter Obi.
9. Another reason I can’t support the ambition of Peter Obi is that, I cannot see the trace of Peter Obi’s rule in Anambra state. The only person who praises the works of Peter Obi in Anambra is Peter Obi himself. I keep wondering though why is he not living in his wonderful Anambra state. I tried to talk to people from Anambra and when I research the internet I see that Anambra people talk more about the works of Chris Ngige. Even though Peter Obi himself handpicked Obiano as his successor, yet the same Obiano rubbishes most of Obi’s claims. He denied for example that Obi left billions in the coffers of Anambra state. Obiano says the opposite that it’s only debt he inherited from Peter Obi. If you want to see and hear from the horses mouth from Anambra state government, go to YouTube and search for Channels Tv 16/11/2015 Anambra Inherited Debt. The secretary to the state government basically said Peter Obi is lying. He too denied the claims by Peter Obi that he left 75 billion Naira to the state. The successors said they only met 9 billion Naira in the account of the state. While they inherited the debt of 185 billion Naira. It doesn’t matter what side you choose to side with, the fact still remains the same that Peter Obi isn’t the person he claims to be. He cannot be trusted. Those who are putting their hope in him now will eventually hit the floor hard in disappointment and disillusionment. Some of you are not happy with Buhari’s government, but Obi’s stewardship if given the chance will be much worse than that of Buhari.
10. Finally Peter Obi is a sophist. Peter Obi talks too much, too much sweet talk and by so doing he shoots himself in the feet. His whole popularity is built on sophistry, manipulating the masses by telling them what they want to hear. Making the gullible youth believe in bogus statements and declarations. His claim that none of his children uses a car has been debunked. It happens his son has a car in England. A simple fact check by those who know the family well says the opposite of whatever Obi claims. For example they say, Peter Obi’s son lives in UK, drives a 2017 BMW X6 worth approximately N60million and he has been driving same since February 2018. Oseloka his son is an actor and movie producer, remember his father Peter Obi has been going around Nigeria telling everyone his son doesn’t own a car, well maybe a car in Nigeria. One time he said he never changed his wrist watch in 17 years and soon after 3 to 5 pictures were retrieved from the internet where he was wearing different watches. Another time he claimed to have only one house in Nigeria, until materials surfaced that he has more real estates than most rich Nigerians, only they are in the care of his junior brother. There are too many information out there of things he had said that a simple research have found out to be lies or untrue. Right now even google has started documenting the lies of Peter Obi. He himself came out saying he never said the investment he made in the brewery has grown to a 100 million dollars. Meanwhile the video is out there for everyone to see. His team keeps telling lies to promote him, his whole image is built on lies, starting with him himself. It is a delusional image of a false Messiah. The present Governor of Anambra State had to come out publicly to disassociate himself from such a lie. Same was done by the former Emir of Kano Sanusi. Whatever is build on lies doesn’t go far, hence I’m sure the presidential ambition of Peter Obi has a very short lifespan.
May God bless The Federal Republic Of Nigeria, and may all her haters live long to witness it.

Good morning, let look at "tolerance,' tolerance mean cramping for your candidate, presenting what and what he will do WITHOUT hate speech, name calling, insults etc towards your opponent.

In 2014, GEJ was called names, stoned, a casket erected with his name and RIP was clearly written on it (it was in all social media even here in Nairaland). To you, that was showing grievances and not intolerance. I have been in Nairaland for years so i know what I'm talking about.

Even before 2019 election, ppl were dissatisfied with APC. In 2019, APC lost inside Villa, Osibanjo lost his polling unit and APC lost in the whole of Abuja. APC won 2019 presidential election because the rural areas determines who wins and not the cities.

The grievances were directed at GEJ not at his supporters.

Carrying a casket is a practise that is old here in the Southwest to signify rejection. For example, in 1999, OAU students carried a casket bearing Omole's name to symbolize rejection.

Stoning, and all that are also parts of rejection. Not intolerance.

Intolerance would be someone attacking another for supporting GEJ, not someone attacking GEJ.

Obi is more than all these incoherent lies you're trying to pin on him.

But which is lame, the facts in my post or this rebuttal of yours which did nothing to refute my claims with superior argument?

Obi's many lies are in the public space. With 10mb, you can have access to them.

Did he run his businesses alongside running Anambra state (a practice which is against the law)?

The answer is also in the public space. The facts are there.

Did he fail to declare all his assets?

The answer is there also in the public space.

The problem with you Obi supporters is the herds mentality of just refuting for the sake of refuting even if the fact is right in your face.

I must commend your maturity and sense of humor. Having said that, i want to ask you a question: was GEJ attacked and his supporters speared? You justified stoning him, was he not with his supporters when they were stoned?

I have been in the North for a while and I'm fully abreast of all that happened during 2015 presidential election, my sister was physically attacked at Gombe for coming out to vote for GEJ. I worked as an observer and i was threatened at a particular polling unit at Bauchi state.

Built2last:
The new electoral act signed by Buhari on 28th of February 2022 will make it very difficult to rig next year's election.

It scares APC and their supporters.

From polling unit all agents sign and upload to INEC server. All agents snaps and keeps copy of the result. All agents sends a copy to their situation room.

INEC is ahead. But I still dey look them with one eye

Do I hate Tinubu? No.

My problem is with the party. I kept record of all the promises they made. I take promises seriously. Tinubu and his team are trying so hard to excuse themselves from the colossal failure of this administration in the last 7 years. But the party is the party. Tinubu enjoyed the title "National Leader of APC" if he had the magic wand, he would have suggested it to Buhari. If Buhari is not listening Tinubu should have taken the honourable part to apologise to Nigerians and ensure Buhari doesn't have a free ride to return in 2019. Tinubu literally reinforced failure. Nigeria is now in a cesspit of gross poverty. As in, people are hungry. Graduates are either kidnapping, prostitution, making skits or wasting away. No thanks to APC.

In 2014 when APC started their quest to rescue Nigeria from GEJ administration, the naira dollar exchange rate was around $1 = ₦157. When they took over power CBN was $1 = 198 naira

Meaning that, if you earned ₦300,000 a month, it was equivalent to $2,000.

Today, the exchange rate is $1 = ₦630. So if you earn ₦300,000 today, it is equivalent to $476. How do you see this abysmal decline and have the nerve to support that same party.
This represents a value destruction of 76.2% (in dollar terms, a rough estimate) - in just seven years!!

It will be difficult for APC to openly campaign and make promises again. The internet is littered with their unkept promises. Which an army of youths are ready to take them up on.

ASUU has been on strike since February, ASUU is asking for initial 56 billion naira. Accountant general was alleged to have stolen 84 billion. As reported by EFCC. That case today has entered voice mail. An amount that can return our children to school was stolen by one man under the watch of APC and he is walking free.

Those supporting APC are enemies of Nigeria and have no conscience. If they have conscience, it's be clouded by either religious bigotry or ethnic chauvinism.

APC SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED NEAR ASO ROCK AGAIN.

No truer words have been said. God bless you

BluntTheApostle:

Come on.

Oga,go ahead and vote BAT or Atiku. We r in a democracy & it's within ur rights. No one should abuse or intimidate u cos of ur choice & u shouldn't antagonize others either for their choice.
I'm proudly OBIdient cos I'm convinced he seems to be the best candidate in the 2023 Presidential election. I'm not saying he's a saint,no. That's not what am looking out for.; that's up to God.
What I need now is a president who can manage a wrecked economy and lay the foundation for a prosperous Nigeria.
I don't need a magician who'll promise to transform the country overnight cos I'd be disappointed if I do.
I need someone real. Someone who really sees governance as business. Obi/Datti ticket is a goal. Sound technocrats.
Hope BAT, Atiku & Kwankwaso supporters can be proud of their candidates & support them from the depths of their hearts like I do support PO.

It's a fact,those supporting apc r the real enemies of Nigeria.

After all gibberish

Obi remains an IPOB thing

Next year Una go understand Nigerians wise pass IPOB and their stupidity

Then Una go get ready to burn igboland .. then Una go realize say

IPOB is on their own..

IPOB should keep insulting cursing and abusing

Power to the people
North 2023

Is too sure and e clear

Console yourself before the heartache comes. You will live in bitterness for eight years as Obi will win and transform Nigeria, much to your sadness.

Peter Obi doesn't know that more than half of the 100million living in abject poverty are composed of ignorant, bigots, and outrightly foolish persons.
This is what he needs a structure for,..... to enlighten them, while there still time
