[quote author= post=118962066]Peter Obi himself.
Obi should first release his manifesto and then list his achievements during his tenure as governor of Anambra State.

This is not too much to ask......

Obi will always be a boy to his Master JAGABAN in everything and every way.
Shoe get size.......

When they were two,
(Atiku and his boy boy Obi Pandora)
They were defeated, not to talk of when their house is now divided into two.

GOD BLESS Jagaban our incoming Presido.

Peter, polish and shine the shoe well well biko..... cheesy wink grin
Oga na Master, anyday, anytime.....[/quote]Who is this one again , are you living in mars ? Obi should release what manifestos again. Some of all bots on Nairaland are actually outdated and needs updates.

Sat port Novo was a distraction, na d other port I dey refer to
It is the Ogoni, Annang , Ibibio And Ijaws Of Bonny and Opobo that need the most Prayers, Probably the Efik too

Ojukwu actually deported many of them from their Lands during the War and dumped them in

Concentration Camps where they were left to die of Starvation , meanwhile Ojukwu’s Soldiers Occupied their Lands

Anyway they have already told IPOB to get lost , to which IPOB always go wild and reply with threats to Conquer them

Thank God the IPOB types are very useless at sea warfare

I’m not even certain any of them can swim

The difference between the Bandits , and IPOB is only Opportunity and Location

How best must he described his manifestoes? Obi is an African, he must speak in this manner to assure us,he is capable. "Hold us responsible" is another way of telling us, bear me witness.
He has already given keynotes on how he plans to solve it. Number one enabler of insecurity is poverty and he has told you how he is going to pull people out of poverty. He has told you that he will dialogue with all aggrieved parties and tell them to lay down their arms, working with those who took the offer and dealing decisively with those who are hellbent on causing pains and deaths in Nigeria. He has also talked about state policing and equipping the security outfits of the country. He further told you that anyone who is not doing his job will be shown the exit door. He already said he will be proactive and won't be a shock absorber like the current president. I hope you don't expect him to give you the very security details on how he is going to curb insecurity. If he doesn't do it, 4 years from now you can vote him out that is what Hold Us Responsible is all about.
Good thing is that he is the one talking to Nigerians and not any proxies so that you can use his words against him if he fails to deliver unlike APC that his delegating questions to proxies. That was how Buhari entered and said he wasn't the one that made the promises but the party when he was asked

Very ambitious statement, as Anambra State governor, who hold you responsible for the insecurities and other failure in the state? Which avenue is created by which citizens can hold politicians responsible in Nigeria? This Peter Obi think everyone is taking advice from mad people as he does? TRUST PETER OBI AT YOUR OWN RISK

What did he do in Anambra grin grin grin u just hate dis country sha
When Peter Obi became governor, Anambra was very insecure with kidnappings and MASSOB activities. MASSOB was like the proxy police in Anambra then.

Peter Obi crushed all these insecurities and restored order to the state.

On the issue of MASSOB, Peter Obi fought them and they left Anambra, that’s why people think that they want to release Nnamdi Kanu because he was a member of MASSOB before he started IPOB and they don’t like Peter Obi because he took action against them and stopped them in Anambra

On the issue of kidnappings, Just read this Vanguard story from 2012 to understand how insecure Anambra was when Obi took over, and how he was decisive in them. The problem is that people have closed off their minds and they don’t read about or listen to Obi just because the media is being used by corrupt politicians to shape the minds of the people.

Ignorant tribalism is blinding many of you from reality. There are millions of people like me out there who were core Buhari supporters in 2015 but now Peter Obi supporters.

I want what’s best for my country, I can’t say the same about many of you tribal bigots

The reason I am asking is that people say Peter Obi cannot be blamed for the killings that SARS (Special Anti-Armed Robbery Squadron) perpetrated under his nose.

How was he able to quell insecurity while having no control or relationship with the security forces?
Re: "Hold Us Responsible": Peter Obi Assures Nigerians Of Tackling Insecurity by deeva2: 12:46pm On Dec 07, 2022
Obi who honours IPOB Monday sit at home.

Obi who never condemn IPOB/UGM activities wants to tackle insecurity.

This was Peter Obi's response on this issue:

“The Awkuzu SARS was there before I became a Governor. It was a police formation that used to be controlled by the Federal Government. It was like when someone said that I ordered people to arrest him, I was not the police; I was the Governor”

Remember that Anambra was a "hot zone" of impunity before he became governor. It was in Anambra that a sitting governor was "kidnapped" by state powers that be. These were the challenges Peter Obi had to face while he was governor. He was impeached himself!

My opinion is that I can't hold Peter Obi fully responsible for the extrajudicial murders that SARS committed because they're a Federal Government unit that don't answer to state governors.

If Peter Obi NEVER gave an order for those people to be extrajudicially murdered, then he shouldn't be held responsible. However, as a state governor under whose watch it happened, he should have set up a commission of inquiries to investigate the murders like Sanwo Olu did after the EndSARS protests.

That said, this is not something I will focus on right now when there are bigger issues at stake. Corrupt powers are using the media and everything at their disposal to distract people from themselves and focus on Peter Obi so that they can continue their impunity beyond 2023

Cheap talk. How do we hold you responsible?

He should have just set a bar for himself; say like 'After 3years into is presidency and he hasn't actualised some set goals he will reaign or hand over' not some gibberish "hold us responsible".

I am happy you agree that he was at least partially responsible, if not by directly giving orders, then by failing to undertake any action whatsoever to stop or even challenge their actions.

Peter Obi is not uniquely poor in this regard, as all the other major candidates did or said nothing against SARs either, but let's have dialogue on honest terms, as ou have done.

Cheers.

I am not a sucker for politicians. I supported President Buhari in 2015, and I had patience with him to perform, till 2016 when I distanced myself from him and became his biggest critic.

I don't need anything from these politicians. All I want is for them to do their jobs and stop stealing our freaking tax money and resources for themselves and their families

I work hard for my money and politicians should do same. If Peter Obi is elected and he fails, I will distance myself from him as well. I have zero tolerance for nonsense!

Cheers!
