People are suffering in Nigeria, no job for millions of Nigerians with degrees, one presidential candidate called peter obi is bragging about how he is the best saver.

People want prosperity and job, peter obi is telling them, he wants to save money.

Fact is that saving money starve the economy of prosperity and job creation, government are not run like business enterprises, you do not save money when running government. The job of government is to generate tax and then use these tax to build infrastructures and payup expenses

Buhari said the same thing, i will save, what are you saving for, if half of the population are poor.

To be realistic, peter obi is just another Buhari, he is old school and have nothing to offer
if Peter Obi is old school, what then is Tinubu?. Una never ready to get sense
Re: People Are Hungry, Peter Obi Is Talking About Saving Money by Nobody: 8:44pm On Sep 07, 2022
Buhari exhausted our savings and still buried us in debt using Tinubu economic policy so what is your point exactly?


Atiku is coming

This is not a time to abuse.

The track record is there.

If i was to choose, i will choose anyone that will liberalise the economy, make trade happen and create more industry for job creation

Not someone bragging about saving money.

Tinubu was not an economic policy adviser for Buhari.

You talked about capitalism or something related to that in your reply to a fellow. So what you mean is that Tinubu is more of a capitalist than Obi?. List 1 business Tinubu has done successfully

Yes, a capitalist does not talk about saving.

A real capitalist is talking about creating more opportunities, finding for ways on how to generate more income.

Oga list one business he has done successfully and you're talking about next in Lagos. Is there no Next is pH? I have even forgotten that Next belongs to Obi's family seff. You even acknowledged that Next is a successful business. Is Next not a tax paying venture ?

Did tinubu tell you he was a business man?.

Creating prosperity for a nation and having a business has nothing to do with each other.

A good business man might be a bad president.

Likewise a good politician might be a bad businessman.

Everyone has their strengths and weakness

Stop spreading rumour and lies.

I don't even like any of the candidates but if i was to choose, i will go for someone who can create prosperity for everyone.

Actually Tinubu is more liberal and work with capitalists, so he could create jobs and liberalisw the economy for economic growth.

Atiku, also have some idea but i dont trust him.

Peter obi on the other hand is projecting his economic policies like a communist just like how buhari did. It is not exciting at all.
Is buhari no more your hero? You want to exempt buhari from tinubu because of his woeful performance? Come next year, APC will be swept out of aso rock.

who's a capitalist?. Listen bro. You can't give what you don't have. Tinubu is a strong and sound politician but you won't still compare him to Obi in terms of creating a capitalist environment. Obi has privately/publicly managed an empire to a verifiable point. You can't say that about the other individual....
My politics presently is simple. Power returns to the south.

Read to understand.

Most of the best president all over the world never ran a business.

Just because you run a business does not mean you will be a good president.

Running a government is different.

Government are revenue generators and infrastructural builders.

Running a campaign on saving money isn't a good economic plan.

You don't save while people are hungry.
What do you know about running a government? If you had an idea then you wouldn’t have voted for buhari twice. So don’t you dare come here and sound hypocritical.

I didn't vote for buhari and infact i dont vote.

I knew from start that buhari will never do anything, it has nothing to do with his age but his career as a military man and rigidity.

There are lot of old people with good ideas out there but buhari is not there.

Likewise peter obi, he hasn't said anything that will convince me to vote for him.

He is talking about saving money just like buhari when people are hungry.

I can confidently tell you that no business man or Nigerian elite will vote for someone who want to starve the economy by saving.

If prosperity is what you seek then support one of the two proven Successful CEOs

Peter Obi or Atiku, PO is even a better ceo, he had the zero exposure to government funds, and his businesses were thriving...
But Atiku started after government exposure..

But nothing about Tinubu will signal prosperity for majority of Nigerians.

Frugality has nothing to do with government.

Government need to spend big,we are a nation of 200m not 5m

So so called frugality is impossible.

Nothing is cheap when running government, building infrastructures does not come cheap.

Yeah, corruption is a problem but frugality in government stop any advancement of progress.
Frugality is cutting down size of government

But tomorrow, you and your likes will start telling us about Alpha Beta, maybe you think Alpha Beta is a betnaija. If that's not a thriving business why is state governments even from opposition party engaging Alpha Beta to handle their tax collection?

Has Tinubu come out to claim alpha beta?

We're talking about people that built businesses not relying on government funds or political criminality.

And the person is Peter Obi, even though I support Atiku, Peter is more successful in business even prior to participating in governance...


So Tinubu doesn't come close, his only history before governance is a mere worker...

So understand the conversation.

This same APC animals that accused and insulted GEJ for not saving for rainy day is the one ranting like a rabid dog here because PO is known to be frugal and saves for rainy day… Bunch of hungry, evil minded sycophants.

She handled the economy with Tinubu model, which saw the economy into multiple recessions...

There's no bright lining to a Tinubu presidency for all Nigerians , the only difference with Atiku is the disunity in this country will be less pronounced..

Atiku will only be better because he will be capable of handling disunity, Nigeria will keep heading nowhere tho...
