He should identity the problem that makes u wrong to lagos first and solve it. He should identify the problem why his people are arrested everyday for Drugs all over the world.. If it is not poverty that is tge reason they are carrying drugs what is? He should first identify why anambra has the highest number of inmate in prisons around the world.. Peter obi i keep saying it, is the most useless governor the southeast has ever had.. The man bu ezi.. Ezigbo ewu gambia.. Ndi otimkpu ya di ga gi.. amaghi ihe a ga agwa unu.. Aturu di ka o ka nma

What's all this fuss about? North is the poverty capital of Nigeria. Everyone knows that.

They should channel this noise to northern elite who, despite having being in power longer than any region, use poverty as a means of subjugating their own people.

Poorest states in Nigeria. How many northern states are there? APC bigots should rest

Oga theres a difference between GREED and POVERTY.

Greed is the reason why people traffic drugs, not poverty. A person in abject poverty wouldnt even have the means to leave the country, let alone getting involved in drug trafficking.

Meanwhile, when did it become a secret that the north is the poverty capital of Nigeria? Since when did it become an in insult to say this? Or is it because it is OBI that mentions it? Why do you people hate this man so much?
So between greed and poverty which one is damaging the country reputation more....


There are alot of Africa countries that're so poor and you hardly see them engage in fraud or any form of crime when they leave the country they won't still commit crime....


Stop justifying crime is better to av a poor family than av a family soaked with crime where you can't even go outside and mention your family name....


One day you can break the yoke of Poverty while it will be so hard to break the bad names you've given your family through crime...

I see Ebonyi, Enugu, plateau and Taraba on your list. Perhaps they are northern states too. Bottom line is that there are poverty everywhere in Nigeria. But to say especially in the North is controversial.

Joseph a daddy’s boy, was hated by his elder brothers for his dreams, nothing else! Going through the comments, I see more Yoruba APC comments than even the northerners themselves, drinking panadol for another man’s headache!😂 All of them hating on Obi because he’s the nation’s favorite daddy’s boy and his dreams for a better Nigeria has them all green with envy! But ona go dey olryt las las because in the end, Joseph saved his brothers from themselves. grin

Nigerians will reach a consensus on no other issue other than their common resentment of the igbo.....chinua Achebe




few years ago...sanusi lamido sanusi said that the north is poor and their elites are taking advantage of it.....he wasn't a tribalist and Nigeria didn't dodge a bullet in him


right before 2023 election, atiku abubakar said that majority of northerners are not on social media which indirectly points to poverty...he wasn't a tribalist, infact millions of northerners voted for him...

peter obi now echoed the same thing......he is a tribalist, igbos always think that they are the best and look down on others. Nigerians dodged a bullet in him...bla bla bla.



It's not even hidden again, the hatred and resentment is so glaring, as an igbo, you're not welcomed, you're just being tolerated.....
Re: Peter Obi Gets Dragged On Twitter For Poverty Tweet by ickonet: 9:40am On Apr 06, 2023
The North is the richest region, the most educated, every one is gainfully employed, there is nothing like Almajiri in the North.

That is the deceit they want to hear. Keep deceiving your selfs. Instead of you supporting Obi that wants to pull you out a disgraceful level of poverty.

It is common knowledge that majority of northerners are poor (and poorly educated), and the rich elites want it to remain that way, so that they can keep exploiting the poor among them.
As a politician, who needs their votes. You should not say such.

Saying it means a lot. Obi isn't a politician yet

they actually know deep down them that they're poor.
Anybody can say it and go scot free except an igbo man, especially an igbo who is popular and in the opposition......

The deep seated hatred against igbo people being propelled from behind the scene by the yorubas

You need to understand that so many people are being paid daily ( by people Campaigning for Acceptance for May 29th) to work on social media to try to demarket Obi because of the Court case.

All the demarketing will not stop or reduce until the outcome of May 29th comes to pass.

The best you can do is to return demarketing fire for fire, propaganda for propaganda, insult for insult.

You need to understand that the same people are trying to use GEJ demarketing formula this time around as well.

I never justified crime anywhere! The thread focuses on 'poverty', and then you mentioned 'drug trafficking'. I clarified it to you that the crime of drug trafficking is a product of GREED, not exactly POVERTY. I'm not sure how you twisted that to mean 'justifying crime', so please stop making pointless insinuations.

Now back to focusing on the topic of discussion being our 'poverty' crisis.

1. Is there a problem of poverty in Nigeria or not?
2. Is Nigeria the poverty capital of the world or not?
3. Is the north not the region of Nigeria worst hit by the poverty problem?
4. If we shift focus to the literacy aspect, is the north not the educationally most disadvantaged part of Nigeria?

If the above points are true, why then do you people want OBI's head for simply repeating factual issues that everyone already knows about?

Did Atiku not also say the north has a poverty problem? Did Sanusi also not say the north has a poverty problem? Did Buhari not also admit that the north has a poverty problem (even to the point of asking the world bank to focus their poverty alleviation schemes in the north)?... If not for hatred or just political bigotry, how then did it suddenly become a crime or an insult because OBI re-echoes the very same issues that everyone already knows?

Pursue opposition??, Jeez look at how he is saying that like it a good thing.

Peter Obi gets called an ethnic bigot because of a tweet where he narrowed down poverty to the North by using the word especially.
For telling the truth grin grin grin grin

North should blame their wicked selfish elites that force them to remain poor.
If we've not been to the 'south' we could have been deceived. If we've not met southerners struggling to meet the day's basic needs, we could have been deceived. If we've not seen southerners killing themselves to jails in Indonesia and Dubai, fighting their way to care homes in Canada and America, we could have been deceived.

Stop with the bullshit.

If you are not poor you won't have time to reply him. Poor people mentality. Rich or wealthy people don't need to proof to anyone they are poor if called poor.

The North is poor and illiterate. QED
COMING FROM A PRODUCT OF BABY FACTORY OR PROBABLY DRUG TRAFFICKING PARENTS


OBI IS A LIAR, BIGOT AND IPOB TERRORISTS SPONSOR

That GEJ one was crazy.

Do you know they said Buharis daughter is married to an Igbo man and his driver for 20 years is Igbo. All lies.

Goodluck really fumbled. The extent he could have used the powers of the presidency.
