It was Peter Drucker who said that "effective leadership is not about making speeches or being liked; leadership is defined by results not attributes". This Saturday offers millions of Nigerians especially young people the opportunity to look beyond emotions, tribal affiliation, or religious sentiments to elect a President with a proven capacity to lead us out of the current mess we have found ourselves.

The purpose of this write-up is to help us look at the vital areas of national development and the capacity of the leading candidates to deliver based on their experience and antecedents.

Education: In terms of educational qualifications, Atiku is the most educationally qualified among the leading candidates, with an MSc in International relations from Anglia Ruskin University, Cambridge, UK. Obi has an average Bachelor's in Philosophy from UNN, while Tinubu has a questionable degree in accounting from the United States.

In terms of their contribution to education, Atiku is far above his competitors towering above them in terms of direct and indirect contributions to the development of education in Nigeria. As Vice President, his passion for education led him to directly intervene in the plight of Anambra school children who were left at home for over two years by Mbadinuju, it was also under the OBJ - Atiku led government that the Universal Basic Education (UBE) programme was launched.

Atiku built Africa's first development university, the American University of Nigeria where rescued Chibok girls were given scholarships. He has also vowed to pay all the withheld and outstanding salaries owed ASUU members and other university workers to underscore his commitment to education.

Tinubu, on the other hand, has no history of support for education beyond a few secondary schools he built during his tenure as governor of Lagos, same goes for Obi and none of them have also gone back to school to earn an additional degree since leaving school.

Peter Obi's record on ASSU strikes and lecturer welfare is also abysmal. Under him, University students stayed at home for years while he owed some educational workers for 36 months.

Job Creation: If there is one qualification the next Nigerian leader needs is the ability to create jobs. Tinubu is the worst when it comes to this benchmark because even though he eats from virtually every taxpayer in Lagos, he has no business that creates real jobs in manufacturing or other key sectors that drive the economy.

Obi is not far behind because as a trader, Obi's major supermarket businesses are import-based most of which take jobs from Nigeria and send them overseas to countries where those goods are manufactured. In contrast, Atiku's businesses are massive creators of jobs. In some states, Atiku is the highest employer of labour after the government because his companies are into manufacturing, agro-based products, and other key drivers of job creation in the economy.

Power: No economy can develop without power. Energy generation is the single reason why most companies are not making profits even banks are now closing early because of the prohibitive cost of power generation. Peter Obi travelled all the way to Egypt to learn about power generation yet he does not know the meaning of "green energy"! This is after 8 years as governor of one of Nigeria's biggest states.

Tinubus's credentials in power generation are far better than Obi's because he single-handedly championed the Lagos state Independent Power Project (IPP) handled by the American Company, ENRON to generate 90 megawatts of electricity which led to some improvements in power supply in Lagos.

Atiku's first-class hands-on experience in the areas of power generation and transmission is one area Nigeria stands to benefit from when elected into office. The OBJ - Atiku-led administration built or started most of the power-generating entities we have in Nigeria today. The PDP-led administration of Jonathan and Sambo completed the rest.

Healthcare: Tinubu and Obi's records in the provision of healthcare are also very poor. Under Obi, Anambra State Government employed medical doctors were on strike for 13 months as a result of his refusal pay the right salary, poor conditions of service, and lack of proper working equipment, Nigeria cannot afford such tragedy. Lagos under Tinubu had healthcare centers that are known for delivering the worst healthcare services. The claim that Tinubu met one functional ambulance as Governor is also false.

Atiku even as a private citizen is actively involved in the provision of healthcare for Nigerians beyond what he did while serving as vice president between 1999-2007. Long after leaving office, Atiku Abubakar went into partnership with the Saudi German Hospital to establish a 100-bed hospital and referral center in Abuja among many other interventions in the health sector.

Security: We cant talk about the 2023 presidential elections without talking about who among the candidates has the experience to tackle our current security challenges. It is a fact that the Obasanjo-Atiku era is the most peaceful period since our country transitioned to democracy.

It was a period when the term bandits was alien to our dictionary. As the number two man in that government, Atiku has the requisite skills and experience to rejig our current security system like they did between 1999 to 2007. Obi, on the other hand, lacks experience in security matters which explains why the Ezu River tragedy where hundreds of people were murdered under his watch is still a mystery. Tinubu on the other hand lacks the energy needed for a robust engagement and monitoring that our collapsing security architecture requires.

Preparedness: Its unfortunate that Tinubu the "Emi Lokan" coroner appears totally confused and directionless after being handed his party ticket. To date, he does not have a real policy document, the entire APC manifesto of 2015 he helped prepare which they disowned and failed to implement has suddenly formed the foundation of the documents they released recently. Tinubu also fumbled when it came to naming a running mate resorting to placeholders, even when he finally found one it was a one-sided Muslim Muslim aggregation that is currently tearing the nation apart at a time religious sensitivity is at an all-time high. A man who does not know how to comport himself when the National Anthem of his country is being recited or played is not ready to lead.

Peter Obi towers above Tinubu when it comes to his level of preparedness even though he also employed the services of placeholders for running mate, his inexperience in handling responsibilities at the national level is a minus. Like Tinubu, Obi has no real policy document that tells Nigerians what he plans to do if they vote for him. Beyond mad men's tales and vomiting crammed statistics most of which are wrong, the LP presidential candidate does not appear ready to lead a complex nation like Nigeria.

Atiku and the PDP on the other hand appear to be the most prepared candidate and political party. Atiku is the only candidate that wrote and released his policy document with a clear blueprint of what he intends to do when elected into office. He named his running mate on schedule, inaugurated his multi-ethnic and multi-religious campaign council, and flagged off his campaign council right on time as directed by INEC.

Conclusion
Those who have mismanaged our country are always happy to see us disunited when it comes to the choice of a presidential candidate because as long as we are divided we will always enthrone our oppressors. Nigeria does not need a President that will learn on the job, Nigeria does not need a rookie to experiment or complicate an already messed up system, what Nigeria needs is an Experienced Atiku Abubakar to reset our country, get it working again and return her to the path of greatness.

May God Help Us to Help Ourselves This Saturday!!!!

You are bias in your writeup, you hide some truths about Tinubu. Tinubu is a Chartered accountant.

Wealthyonos:
The article is PDPfied

Once I see the name of that OP,, I don't read anything that follows.
Even if it is a One-line post or comment.

Oche Joseph on Nairaland (and in real-life) is to PDP exactly what Ikirodah is to APC, both on Nairaland and in reality..
Confirmed paid media persons to their parties.
Card-carrying functional party members.

Atikulated Article

The moment I read that Atiku is more academically qualified than PO, i rest my case that the rater must be a member of Atiku presidential campaign council.

PO had obtained more 50 certificates in business, leadership and governance from Harvard business school, Lagos business school, MIT, Cambridge, etc

Even where northern has ruled for 8years, it is a turn of southern to be president. What Atiku is doing now is usurping our turn which is against equity, justice and fairness.

Nawaoo for you

seguno2:
Is that how ThiefNuibu also employed thousands of workers to provide water for every building

stop crying?

Prinota:
We know the Only man that can get Nigeria working from day one and he's Name is Atiku Abubakar and his team.

Special Purpose Vehicle driver with his conductor

Nduemma12:
How did these thread got to fp

The op decieved seun and alll the mods in nairaland. That's how it got to front page.

The op disguised as a neutral observer with unbiased opinions/analysis.
Meanwhile he is a cheaply paid agent of atiku

Even the 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th commentors are all Atiku people.

They would all wonder how that first person to comment (miracood2) that stand for Labour Party was able to squeeze himself in as a first commentor. Kudos to him.

Atiku is a big thief. As useless as Tinubu.

Obi is the way.

Massiveglory:
Bro , leave all these long epistle. Time no dey again.
PODATTI leads home and away.

If this poll you posted is by CNN then I will confidently tell you that Tinubu will win the election because the poll of the northern is not part of this poll as majority of them don't watch CNN to have participated . Scoring 31 percent by Tinubu without northern poll just imagine what would have happen with real abokis votes

Praise singers, no problem.
Saturday is here already

stop crying?

Start answering questions.

Inn Sha Allah from tomorrow Nigeria will begin a new breath with Alh.Atiku Abubakar as the democratically elected President.

Atiku is my Choice.

Camplying:
Atiku our Choice for Presidency

Atiku betrayed GEJ in 2015. That's why I still hate those who betrayed him till today, anybody that was involved in 2015 in betraying GEJ will not win any major election again.

Massiveglory:
Bro , leave all these long epistle. Time no dey again.

prepare yourself against heart attack. Obi will be lucky to be second. Both Atiku and Tinubu will beat him black

Atiku Abubakar is the Next president of Nigeria insha Allah Nigeria sai Atiku Abubakar wazirin adamawa saban shugaban qasan Nigeria me jiran gado kenan insha Allah,

This doctor has a questionable epistle. The obvious failure of Obi led to this nonsense. But get it clear, the voters are quite knowledgeable enough to be persuaded by this rubbish. No appeal can safe Atiku at the poll. Tinubu has everything sorted out.

kushme:
Oga, it could PDPfied. But shey the article on these three presidential candidates no dey accurate?

Accurate wetin? You just read rubbish and claiming accurate. Is that how you measure accuracy?

I didn't need to read all, I known is for Atiku, yeye somebody

I wonder where dem dey see money buy data to post rubbish. Was it not the same Peter Obi that was vice to Atiku in the last election? Now they want to rubbish him cos his no longer in their ship

The unifier….

With such record Atiku will be campaigning every election year without winning

It is a matter of time. Let hang on. Sunday is not too far.

Your analysis is biased to favour Atiku. Among other lies, when you got to Power, you were silent on the $16b Obasanjo Atiku wasted. This is known to all Nigerians and they cannot be deceived by your biased analysis. Do you know what Tinubu did on education in Lagos? A state where thousands migrate to everyday?
Yet you compare it with Anambra State and Obasanjo UBE? Can you run one local council in Lagos?

This man is a fool. If you want to know about Tinubu investment, we will tell you. He is the most industrious among them. You are agitating for Fulani man who will protect Fulani kidnappers. A rogue who openly admit he is corrupt, a man who head the Nigerian-custom only and become richer than the entire state. A disgrace to Nigeria and symbol of corruption. May he never be elected the Nigerian president. Tinubu the way. Vote wisely, vote Tinubu............ Say no to FULANI KIDNAPPERS, Say no to rogues.

I will Vote for Atiku
Tomorrow

I know he would be saying people should vote for Atiku, someone whose former boss Obasanjo said is a thief . He wasn’t even president and what he stole can feed all Nigerians for generations

I know Otor Kpakima is stewpid and even without reading the rubbish he wrote I can tell he didn’t consider CHARACTER and INTEGRITY

VOTE PETER OBI PLEASE

Illiterate on Nairaland..... comprehension appears to be a big problem for you

Freebills12:
The write up is an insult to justice, in fact it is a threat to justice. No state government has ever promoted primary and secondary school education than Peter Obi. Anambra state rose from 25th to 1st in the country in terms of education because of one man's input. This is the change we want.

IPOB member spotted... No sense at all

Wealthyonos:
I wonder where dem dey see money buy data to post rubbish. Was it not the same Peter Obi that was vice to Atiku in the last election? Now they want to rubbish him cos his no longer in their ship

Go and repay the loan you took and stop being foolish Atiku will be your presidential on Saturday and there is nothing you can do about it

Looking ahead
