You are right, but Peter Obi didn't join politics to acquire wealth because something pushed him into politics. He told a story of how he paid $40k to do an executive course at Kellogg Mgt. School, USA. Throughout the course, nobody mentioned Africa and the plans of automakers for the continent.

When he asked why that was so, the founder of Kellogg told him to take a walk with him. Peter Obi said it was the founder's last class in the school. While walking by the Lake of Michigan, the man proved to him that nobody has faith in African economy, including African leaders. That's why nobody plans for Africa. He advised Obi to join local politics and help in shaping the future of his country.

You see, it wasn't about the money. He wanted, in his own terms, to chase away the lunatics who have taken over the asylum. That's why he always advises people in the private sector to stop complaining about bad leadership and join local politics because the worst of us are making laws for the best of us.

I remember this story. The teacher asked him to choose between two currencies, the naira and dollar and Obi chose the dollar which only buttressed the teachers point that even he didn't choose the naira hence no one would trust or have faith in Africa.

He was even sitting on his own jeje on the board of Fidelity bank before someone recommended him to run for governor of his state.

Obi is just what we need now. A thief and a Druggie will send us further down the abyss. Nigeria can still be salvaged if we have human beings running the country instead of these demons in politician gab in the likes of AA and the druggie.

No, I didn't say he is a saint.

In the interview he granted Arise TV when his name was mentioned in the Pandora Papers, Peter Obi stated that he resigned the chairmanship of the board of all the businesses he chaired the moment he was declared the winner of the election and asked to come to Awka to take over as the governor of the state because the state didn't have a governor.

Admittedly, politicians tell a lot of lies. But even among thieves, there are some with conscience.

I can write a book to defend why Peter Obi is the best man for this job.

Tinubu is tax collector general of Lagos state, owner of Lagos and collects 800 naira daily from buses plying in Lagos. These are his investments
He also has stakes in many businesses that he denies as his hallmark is lying and secrecy
