For collecting aid up n down when he was a governor or what exactly is he good at as a leader ?!

One shame you no get.

Imagine a country at war feeding a section of your country.

You no de shame? With all th vast arable lands..

It is very ignorant for Peter Obi to say that it is a "national disgrace" for Nigeria to receive food aid from Ukraine because it is a war-torn country. Peter Obi needs to be educated about Ukraine and wheat. [/b]Please fact-check me: [b]Egypt received food aid from Ukraine long before Nigeria did. And Egypt is still dependent on Ukraine for 60% of its wheat and much of its fertiliser needs. Yet, Egypt is a country that Peter Obi praises. Obi even went to Egypt to study their economy. The attached photo was taken when Obi was visiting and praising Egypt. In fact, Obi is looking well fed in this photo. Maybe the Egyptians fed him a lot from the wheat donated to them by Ukraine.

It is not everything that we must politicise. Ukraine is the world's seventh-largest wheat producer, and the war in Ukraine has not affected her position. The whole world was affected when Ukrainian wheat could not hit the market, and the World Trade Organisation, led by a Nigerian, helped to organise a deal with Russia that allowed Ukrainian wheat to get to countries like America. Please Google it. Ukrainian wheat is not only bought by America but it is also being used as food aid to multiple countries. Obi should stop politicising hunger!

Supporting Tinubu means you have to convert yourself to mad man and speak without thinking.

You guys are quick to attribute any criticism against Tinubu as someone's candidate in the last concluded presidential election that didn't win. How that is the issue on ground is against critical thinking.

It is sad that Nigeria is absolutely big for nothing as it stands. You are confused and shameless same time. How a country @ war is sorting your own mess and you have the audacity to brag about it is cretinous.

The present reality was actually caused by Tinubu with his foolish policies. Don't shift the blame. Nigerians weren't looting warehouses and moving trucks for food. Prices of goods didn't skyrocket astronomically within 9 months. Tinubu is an economic assassin. Nigeria is already in tatters in less than one year of his reign.


You guys should admit it wholeheartedly that a Ukraine in war is better than Nigeria without war.

🙄 it's a pity Ukraine that's being bombarded on daily basis by the mighty power of Russia is economically sound than Nigeria! Imagine Gaza sending Aids to Nigeria! In a sane world Ukraine should be receiving grain from us

Ukraine is on "do not resuscitate" right now, yet it is providing you (nigeria) free food as aid ⛑️⛑️ no need to put make up on this fact, nobody is being fooled.

United nations bought cocoa from ondo and kogi through fg to support vulnerable people in INDIA AND BANGLADESH... Ohhh you meant nigeria is also better than India in terms of development and agriculture ?

Does the war in the North eastern Nigeria stop LAGOS[b] STATE from progressing/ developing ? War in some part of Ukraine doesn't stop Ukrainians from farming in other places that their is no war...

Your hate is the courses of your vulnerability reasoning... Continue wallowing delusional ism

Tolu Ogunlesi's reply:

. Disheartening that @PeterObi wants to make himself a disinformation agent by all means. Distorting narratives, omitting crucial info, ignoring solutions.

2. The WFP statement clearly says it’s a UN humanitarian intervention specifically for North East Nigeria. (SCREENSHOT 1), which as you might know, is slowly emerging from a devastating insurgency (Thank you to the Nigerian Armed Forces etc for degrading BH and ISWAP).

3. So, that grain is going directly to the most vulnerable people IN THE NORTH EAST. And the UN has been involved in humanitarian assistance in that region for many years now. It’s not new.

4. The same UN and other parties provided substantial assistance to Anambra State after the devastating 2012 flooding - so I’m sure you, Mr Peter Obi, know what “humanitarian intervention” means. You were Governor then. (SCREENSHOTS 2 and 3)

5. Have a sit down with your Twitter handlers, endeavor to Google before posting, and stop playing ignorant politics with everything.

6. At the same time as this donation is happening, Nigeria is getting set to harvest dry season wheat that was farmed in Nov 2023, in a program supported by the AfDB. (SCREENSHOT 4)

7. It’s still early days, and there’s a long way to go, but if you want to talk about food security in Nigeria, and you cannot acknowledge the increasing focus on domestic wheat (and other grains) cultivation, then you’re merely a malicious political actor, seeking cheap attention on social media.

8. Also, Google “Grain from Ukraine” Initiative to better educate yourself. mfa.gov.ua/en/grain-ukrai… Ukraine has historically been one of the world’s biggest grain exporters, and this thankfully manages to defy the Russian invasion. Are there lessons Nigeria can learn? Most definitely! Is Nigeria making efforts to grow more grain? Most definitely! Thank you AfDB and other partners.

FreeStuffsNG:
Thank you Tolu. May God bless you for setting the records straight.
I particularly love your reference to his mediocre record of public service as Anambra state Governor. That's a recurring lesson to anyone who is today a political office holder that once you have a plan in the future for a higher office, serve the people excellently today so that you will not be labouring in vain on the social media in the future.

tuborme:
I was waiting for Ogunlesi to outline the lies in what Obi said. He just reiterated what Obi said.

That a country at war is providing food to a country at “peace”. What type of clowns are running this country?

SoNature:
How does this hogwash change the facts Peter Obi laid out?

Didn't the foodstuff come from a country in a middle of a war with its neighbour?

It's quite unfortunate that Nigeria has deteriorated to the point that we depend on outsiders to feed.

For the first time in the history of Nigeria, northerners that used to supply food to the rest of country and WA subregion is looting trucks of foodstuff just to survive.

Nigeria is collapsing right before us and APC members are busy playing yeye politics.

Tolu Ogunlesi's reply: Mr man you end up saying nothing to counter Mr peter Obi. From your narrative, it is deduced that grains from ukraine is being sent to Nigeria as humanitarian aids. It is a known fact that Ukraine is currently in war with Russia.
Ukraine and Nigeria which country should be more viable presently?
